Uh, You've got all you know, so be careful on
the roads tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
But you know, speaking to.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
San Antonio, we got an announcement on Friday, that's the second
year in row.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Look at the Spurs are becoming more and more relevant.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Well, Wimby, and you know the way the Spurs have
been drafting, and then the way the Spurs have been
picking up rookie of the years for two straight years
now maybe three, and the way they're gonna make me
work on Christmas Day against the defending NBA champs. The
Spurs will be in Oklahoma City on Christmas Day?
Speaker 4 (01:53):
Does it make doesn't make it feel weird that like
you're now more seasoned than whoever eventually is gonna sign
on there.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
But here's the thing.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
I know this is probably gonna be the second game
because obviously the other game is the Calves and the Knicks.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
We know that game is gonna be at like ten.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Am in the morning, So that means my game is
at two in the afternoon, probably two or three.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
Probably that's when I usually have Christmas with my daughters.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Well, they can always come here.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
I guess, Oh, I guess they'll be opening up packages here.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Well, I mean, your youngest daughters has been a c bunch.
I've never actually met your oldest. I met your youngest
a couple times.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
My oldest one is too cool for this place.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
This is the coolest place in Stanley.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
I got a Stanley. I'm a senior dad.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
I'm a senior stach.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
It doesn't really talk like that, so it sounds like
at least a Silverstone.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
I know.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
But you've got Calves, Nicks, you've got Spurs, Thunder, you've
got Rockets, Lakers, You've got the Mavericks and the Warriors,
and you finish the night off with the Tea Wolves
and Nuggets.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Good solid. You know. Christmas Day lineup?
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Now the opening day opening, the actual open day. We'll
talk about the second day in a second. You've got
the the Oklahoma City Thunder. Wait, let's see, hold on,
you will feature the Rockets, going against the Thunder and
the Warriors versus the Lakers opening night.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Those are the tip off games.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Totally understand the first one, right, Yeah, I don't understand
the second one.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
There's gotta be another team that's more relevant.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
And honestly, I think that the NBA got it wrong
because if we look at the second night, you've got
somebody here from up thirty five who's gonna be playing
mister wimbin Yama himself, and that's Cooper Flag versus Wimby
and that should have been opening night.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Ye second game they're.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Gonna promote that though, is more like one versus two,
which is crazy to think that the state of Texas
is gonna is gonna have two different one versus two
matchups in the same calendar year.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
But that should have been the opening night, I mean ideally,
because they go, this is the number one pick, right
versus the former number one pick. We're gonna have two
old guys.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
We're gonna have the second games sponsored by AARP with
Lebron James and Curry.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
Yeah, I'm gonna go there because I get it.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
It's the Los Angeles, those guys the way and you
order them both. Those guys Okay, I'm I'm not.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
Playing basketball though, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
But you know, to see that it was funny because Boston,
the Celtics have been kicked out of the Christmas for
the first time since twenty.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
Fifteen, cause Jason Tatm's hurt and Jaylen Brown don't want
to be there.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
And nobody's left. You know, Boston is not going to
be the Celtics that we've seen since twenty fifteen, sixteen, seventeen,
eighteen nineteen.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
That's a long time.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Did you say that.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
You didn't said the Knicks were playing right on Christmas?
Yes they are, Okay, I said, yeah, I'm trying.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
To say Calves and Knicks. I mean, that's your potential.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
One Eastern Conference right final. Yeah, Calves and Calves and Knicks.
That could be the Eastern Conference finals. Again, if the
Calves don't choke. Sorry Ty, you know, but they did,
you know, But the Spurs and Thunder, that could be
a potential. You don't know, We don't know. We don't
at by Christmas time, do we still know if they're legitimate.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
No, but hopefully by Christmas time you're two months into
the season, and I hope we're about you hope at
the very least you have an idea what your team
is gonna be.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Well, because before because the All Star Break is.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
A month later, you know, and at that point it
gets closer to the trade deadline, and then you start
to see which teams are buyers, which teams are sellers.
And hopefully the Spurs are right there because I think
you and I talked about this, they have a realistic
shot of being within that top five or six in
the West.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Do they go out and they grab somebody else to
add to.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
The team, and I mean, we did get we signed
up darreon Fox.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Yes they didn't, and I think Darren Fox.
Speaker 5 (05:34):
A lot of Spurs fans weren't really happy with that,
which is crazy because understand, I think it's because like
they traded it for Darren Fox. But they went and
drafted a guy in Dylan Harper, which a lot of
Spurs fans they even want us to get him in
the first place.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
People forget about that, but then they run how talented
he is.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
Yeah, but also they forget that the last couple of
teams in the in the East Western Conference Finals and
the championship all had deep backcourts, so it's a good
thing to have a lot of really good guards. I
think signing Fox now, which they set you up for
the next five years.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
That is their window.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
Yeah, we're in our window. We're in I would call this.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
I'm glad you brought that up, because it's there's a
new NBA window.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Yeah, right.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
The Celtics entered that window. They're now out of that window. Yeah.
I just think they are well.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
I mean, I think they're on the decline probably. It's
just the thing is the East is still I think
up for grabs in their way that.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
If they say they were healthy.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Yeah, sure, you know, Denver's kind of the same way.
They're still in the window, right, Yeah. Oklahoma obviously just
entered the window.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
But it also I guess it also determines like how
older younger team is can determine how big your window is, right,
because the Spurs are a young team, so their window
might be bigger than the Nuggets, who have a talented team,
but they're also a little bit older.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
The Warriors have been out of the window for a while, right,
you know, they're they're starting to wash those windows. Yeah,
because you just get old and this happens, right for
the Spurs.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
We had a twenty year window.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
That's one of the longest windows ever besides the Lakers
and possibly the Bulls.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
I guess in the late what the.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Late eighties, early nineties that we had all this because
Tim Duncan.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
You have to remember that dude made the playoffs every
season every season. Kobe Bryant did not do that.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
That was dirty work.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
Okay, that exactly.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
I think Tom Brady, as Tom Brady asked Tom Brady,
all missed the playoffs for once.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
You don't miss the playoffs like it was Spurs death
taxes for a long time. It was boring basketball, fundamental
basketball for twenty seasons. So the Spurs fans to say,
we're spoiled, Yeah, we're spoiled.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
I think Spurs fans also need to again, boy this
they was other things that are going on, right.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
And we're gonna get to that on the other side.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
But what the thing is is that that window now
doesn't become twenty seasons, Shane, and now becomes five to
ten sure, right with the amount of money that you're
having to fork over for players. For example, how much
did we get Aaron Daron Fox.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
For four years to twenty nine that's a lot.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Of money, right, and so you can only keep key players. Now,
if you're not a key player, you're gonna.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Come into a team where you want to win. Right.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
This is now the opportunity, like you just mentioned earlier,
that maybe by Christmas Day we have somebody, or post
Christmas Day they shows interest.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Could be a veteran, we don't know, and they'll be
cheaper at that point too.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
We weren't having that a couple of seasons ago because
nobody wanted to come here because well, we're rebuilding, right.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
We knocked down the walls, were bringing up new walls.
It was a great twenty year.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Relationship, but it disappeared, you know, and some of the
Spurs fans, I'll be honest with you, have disappeared completely.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
And the Spurs fans last year.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
Last year, the Spurs fans cheered on when they traded
for darreon Fox right after the trade dead or right
before the trade dead.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
But I think they saw that injury and a lot
of them didn't do their research that he was already
hurt coming over.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
Yeah, so it was like they realized the season probably
wanted to progress further than that. Wemby's out for the
next for the year. It was probably better to set
him anyway.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
But then we got Dylan Harper out of that draft
and we've become this team that's young, that's sexy, that's fun,
that's almost like a Ferrari again. So that's exciting and
the Spurs fandom will grow.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
Now.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Coming up next, I want to talk about where san
Antonio needs to grow and an open invitation to the
fanatics on Ticket seven Pot sixty
