Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to The Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
It's our two on this Thursday, Dan and the Dan
It's Dan Patrick Show. Charles Barkley will stop my he'll
answer the question or questions about the future of inside
the NBA on TNT, because it looks like it's moving elsewhere,
and I wonder about this. Let's say TNT loses the NBA.
They're going to have the NBA for one more year,
(00:25):
it looks like, and then it'll go to NBC. It's
also Disney, which is ABC, and ESPN and Amazon getting
into the game. But if I'm Shack and Charles, Ernie
Kenny and maybe some of the producers there, I just say,
you know what, how about we do our own show
(00:48):
and then license it to NBC. Start a production company.
That way, you're going to continue to shoot it, find
a studio, and then you're going to rent out a studio,
have the equipment with the people there, and you're then
going to say we're shooting this in Atlanta. So Ernie
is going to stay because if they have to move
(01:08):
to New York or Connecticut, wherever it might be, Ernie's
not moving. But if you can stay in Atlanta. Keep
everybody there, keep that show together. And if i'm Shaq
Charles Kenny, let's just form a production company and we'll
do the show and then we'll sell it to NBC.
(01:29):
So we'll talk to Charles coming up. And don't adjust
your dial if you're watching on TV. Yes, the dan
Nts are dressed up today. Fritzie's got a suit and tie,
Setan's got a suit in time, Marvin's got a bow
tie on that was tied by his wife. Pauli has
a T shirt on. He didn't get the memo, but
three of the four dan Nts look pretty sharp today.
(01:51):
And we were wondering if we're going to step up
our game and maybe go into the daytime Emmys, no
Sports Emmys anymore, the daytime Emmys, then maybe we got
dress this show up a little bit here, and three
of the dann Nets did a wonderful job here. Now
we would like to know what you think their jobs
would be if you just base this off how they
(02:12):
dressed today, So Todd, Seton and Marvin and you can
go to our Twitter page at DP show. Also check
out the YouTube channel every day. Say good morning to
those watching on Peacock and our radio affiliates around the country,
including iHeartRadio, Fox Sports Radio, Mavericks beat the Wolves and
they won it by three. They're up one to zero
(02:32):
in the series. Tonight, Pacers Celtics Game two. You had
the Celtics favored by nine and the Oilers at the Stars.
That will be Game one. I told you this was
going to happen, and it did. You got Dallas Western
Conference Finals, Stars, Western Conference Finals, Rangers.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Win the World Series. Now you're starting to see this.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
What about the Cowboys? More pressure on the Cowboys this year.
It's been thirty years since they've done anything. Now the
Cowboy's more pressure. Anyway, you can get the Cowboys into
a show today and then you could talk about Dax's
contract and all of those things.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
Also, there's other NFL news.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
You might not know it if you watch some of
these shows, but you know to his situation is interesting.
Jordan Love's situation is interesting. And if you're going to
give to a cont now, I wouldn't do this. I
would not give him a contract before the season. I
would say let's see it one more time to him.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
Now.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
I might be bothered by that, but I would say, look,
you're going to have matters in your own hands. You're
betting on yourself. We've given you two great wide receivers
and we just signed Odell Beckham Junior. Go out there,
do what you did last year. You'll be compensated. I
don't want to do what Arizona did with Kyler Murray.
(04:00):
Never would have extended him that early. Now some you know,
some of these players, do I get it, you know,
whether it's Mahomes or Josh Allen or Joe Burrow, justin Herbert,
some of these quarterbacks I got to see. I got
to see a larger sample size. Plus, if I get
you in earlier, a year earlier, that means you start
(04:20):
on that next contract a year earlier as well. It's
going to cost you more money. I know you want
to take care of your players, but with Tua, I
have to see another year. Just do health wise. He
played well, didn't get hurt last year. But I got
to see a little bit more. Here is Jordan Love,
the Packers quarterback. He's asked about a contract extension as
(04:42):
well as your.
Speaker 5 (04:44):
Agent said, you're not stepping on the field for a
preseason game until you have a deal done or something
like that.
Speaker 6 (04:48):
No, so I don't really know what's going on, but
we'll see. But I'm not gonna get into too much
contract stuff.
Speaker 7 (04:54):
Would you be comfortable playing under the current deal or
is that something that you don't want to do with
you We'll see.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
I don't know yet.
Speaker 6 (05:00):
You know, we'll see.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
Okay, boy, you don't want that good will to go away.
What happened last year with Jordan Love?
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Build off of that thirty two touchdowns you beat the
Cowboys in Dallas. I mean, i'd want to see another year.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
Great year.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
I got to see another year got to be It's
a lot of money to tie up. All of a sudden,
you turn around and you go defenses kind of responded
to him. Usually that first time around, you see quarterbacks
who are successful can be successful that you know, the
really good ones. Then you want to see what the
defenses do, and then you're going to find out maybe
(05:41):
a whole lot more about Jordan Love this year than
you did last year. But I don't want to jump
the gun. I mean, it's nice to do that. If
you give me a team friendly deal, I'll let you
get into that next deal a year earlier.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Because Mahomes did that with the Chiefs. That was a
team friendly.
Speaker 8 (06:01):
Yes, Todd, I'm not the best with social cues, but
I got the impression from Love he didn't really want
to talk about contract.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Did you guys pick up on them? You know what?
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Play it again, Marvin, as your.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
Agent said, you're not stepping on the field for a
preseason game until you have a deal done or.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
Something like that.
Speaker 6 (06:15):
No, so I don't really know what's going on, but
we'll see, but I'm not going to get into too
much contract stuff.
Speaker 7 (06:21):
Would you be comfortable playing under the current deal or
is that something that you don't want to.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
Do at this point? We'll see.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
I don't know yet, you know, we'll see. Okay, anybody
else want to ask?
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Yeah, he didn't want to talk about it. But then
let me ask you one more question.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
But you would sit out though if you came like.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
You, are you comfortable going.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
To want to be traded if you don't get the money.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Look, we're asking leading questions there to the witness.
Speaker 9 (06:46):
Yes, Paul, guys like Jordan Love and Tua could sign
kind of like a like a two thirds level contract
of that massive like the Joe Burrow contract. That's what
everybody wants. The Joe Burrow plus one more dollar. Daniel
Jones took a four year, one hundred and sixty million
dollar contract extension because they didn't pick up a fifth
year option. He took less in comparison to what all
(07:06):
those other guys make, and it's probably not gonna work out,
but there's there's more of an out with a contract
like his.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
He's all set up. Yeah, but he had no other choice. No,
I'm saying, but what he did, the.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Amount of money, Yeah, I agree, it's like for Mayfield. Yeah,
like you know, there's nothing wrong with that middle ground here.
I mean, Toua shouldn't be paid sixty million dollars, Dak
shouldn't be paid sixty million dollars. Only a couple of
these quarterbacks should be Hey, you're the next guy up.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
We're going to pay you.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
And go back to Lamar Ember last year, Hey you
want Lamar give up two first round draft picks. Nobody
and I kept saying, Atlanta, give him two first round
draft picks, bring him in. Can you imagine Lamar with
that offense in Atlanta? Who cares about a draft pick?
(07:57):
Give me a quarterback who can play now, especially for
a franchise that has needed a quarterback.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Nobody wanted him.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Nobody was going to give up two first round picks
because you were going to have to pay him. And
then he stays, obviously it gets paid, and it's the MVP.
All right, Seaton poll question for hour two, who is
going to be won?
Speaker 5 (08:18):
Yeah, we got up there right now, which is the
we have a poll question about generic excuses almost ax
for losing a game. Okay, yeah, it just was not
our night. We didn't execute the way we wanted to,
or some of us didn't want it enough.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Well, Anthony Edwards said that maybe maybe well play it.
Here's Anthony Edwards after the loss.
Speaker 5 (08:41):
Did you think that the high from Game seven maybe.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
Kind of affected you guys coming in today at all?
Speaker 3 (08:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (08:48):
For sure.
Speaker 10 (08:48):
I mean I can see it was a little a
step a step behind everybody, especially myself. Kyrie got a
transition layup from I think we scored and he just
out rammed me.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
I was just exhausted, man. So yeah, for sure, but
we'll be all right.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
He's honest sometimes to a fault.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
You're twenty two, Kyrie, I think's thirty two, and he's
blowing by you. You're only going to get more tired. Going,
you know, as you play basketball. It's not like you go,
we'll be fine, We'll be refreshed. Okay, they got to
come up with a different defensive philosophy here because you
(09:28):
allow Dallas to dominate in the paint. And I never
thought I'd be saying that today after last night, but
they did. They outscored the Timberwolves sixty two to thirty
eight in the paint.
Speaker 8 (09:39):
Yes, Marvin, and that play happened in the first quarter
with Kyrie. Yeah, yeah, Like, what do you mean you're
exhausted now?
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Mike and Wisconsin? Hi Mike, what's on your mind?
Speaker 11 (09:51):
Mark Fellas? Two quick things for you. So, first thing
is Fritzy my son got a new pet Hamster named
it cod spelled t one d.
Speaker 4 (10:05):
Nice.
Speaker 11 (10:06):
Second second thing, just an idea maybe to get you
guys over the hump to win that sports hebby, you know,
maybe try something different, you know, just try going unscripted
for a little.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
Bit, you knowing it.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Thank you, Mike.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
I forget when somebody did somebody the email us or
tweet that this show is scripted? I forget who how that?
How did that surface here?
Speaker 3 (10:30):
You guys read me?
Speaker 11 (10:31):
It was a thing.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
Yeah, It's probably a thing on social media where they
were like, well, I don't know these guys. Whoever writes
their scripts needs to do better something.
Speaker 9 (10:39):
It was on our Facebook page and someone posted it
as if they were being serious about it, and a
lot of people joked about it, and a coupleople thought
that it could be a scripted three hour radio show.
Speaker 5 (10:50):
Now does that help our daytime Emmy candidacy or heard it?
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Well, I'd like to dispel the fact that this is.
Speaker 5 (11:00):
I mean to be fair, MLB tonight is almost.
Speaker 8 (11:04):
Script You're right, You're right, it's all scripted. So no
more table reads now. And then we say thank you, Todd,
and then we laugh.
Speaker 5 (11:15):
Says I don't know if my character would say that. Actually,
I think it doesn't really feel like me.
Speaker 9 (11:21):
Can we talk about the eighty five Bears, Dan.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
No, Paul Michael and Fort Wayne. Hey, Mike, what's on
your mind today?
Speaker 4 (11:31):
Hey?
Speaker 12 (11:31):
Good morning, Dan, Thanks for taking my call. I've got
two short comments for you. The first about the international
presence of the NBA. I think it's a matter of necessity.
With the NFL taking more and more of a market share,
especially on TV holiday scheduling, it seems like the NBA
really has no choice but to keep going out further
and further international if they want to grow the game.
(11:53):
And second comment about seat and suit, it reminds me
of time when people used to dress up for a
basketball games and state that Bob Coosey was the most
unstoppable force they'd ever seen.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Look at him, go Yeah, if this show is in
black and white, Seaton would look like he was showing
up at the Boston Garden to watch Bob Cozy.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
He's unstoppable.
Speaker 5 (12:16):
Well, we've never seen anything like it.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Look at him go the most unstoppable fault this league
has ever seen, the fact that Bob Coosey only used
his right hand and you still couldn't stop it.
Speaker 8 (12:28):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
Like, if you watch him dribble, he's just got He's
just going to magician out there. Good luck catching up
to that one, Curly. You know, when you're watching the
Harlem Globetrotters, you know, I get it, it's part of
the act. Like you're not going to steal the ball
from Curly Neil or Marcus Haynes. Bob Coozy he's just
dribbling around the Lakers like they and they have no
answer for him.
Speaker 5 (12:51):
Yes, he drives to the hoop for some reason, goes
around the back with the ball and then lays it
in even though there's nobody near.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
Him to pass it too.
Speaker 8 (12:59):
Yes, I know we laughed now. But was Bob Coozy
basically the Kyrie of his day?
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Uh? I think Kyrie is the Bob Coozy of his day.
Speaker 5 (13:10):
The most skilled player to ever do it. In that
line of people who have worn that title, yeah, Bob
Coozy would be in it.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Was he the first truly skilled player in NBA history.
Speaker 9 (13:22):
He led the league and assists eight years in a row,
and he also averaged about twenty points a game, so
he's well balanced.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
I think he was an MVP one year. Yep.
Speaker 8 (13:32):
Those set shots were nasty.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
That one handed push shots. Yes, And then all of
a sudden, Jerry West came into the NBA. And if
you watch when Jerry first came in, old NBA players
shooting set shots or one handed push shots, Jerry comes
in taking people off the dribble, and you're like, hold on.
It's almost like everybody was in black and white and
(13:56):
Jerry was in color, and you're like, oh, there's a
day different player coming into the NBA.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
All right, Let me take a break.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
The great Charles Barkley will join us coming up next year,
Dan Patrick Show.

Speaker 2 (14:58):
Yeah, he's Charles Barkley, Hall of Famer TNT inside the
NBA joining us on the program.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
How's morale? Charles?
Speaker 14 (15:08):
Well, two things, Dan, Number one, Mercedes is a great car, Okay,
but don't buy it if you can't afford it. Let's
get that out the way, all right, Only get a merced.
Mercedes is an amazing car. I've had a few in
my life, but don't buy it unless you can afford it.
Stop trying to impress other people. Morale sucks, plain and simple.
(15:30):
You know, I just feel so bad for the people
I work with. Dan, you know, you know these people
have families, and I just really feel bad for them
right now. You know, these people I work with, they
screwed this thing up clearly, and we don't have zero
I do what's gonna happen?
Speaker 4 (15:48):
I don't feel good. I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 14 (15:49):
Especially when they came out yesterday and said we bought
college football. I was like, well, damn, they could have
used that money they buy the NBA.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
But it says that TNT Sports added college football playoff
games and a five year deal they're licensing deal with ESPN.
Maybe that's why they're buying this because they don't, you know,
the money they were going to use on the NBA
they got to do something with.
Speaker 14 (16:19):
Yeah, that's what That's the first thing came to my mind.
We've never had college football, that never been involved with
college football, and I'm like, wait a minute, shouldn't we
be spending every time we got to keep the NBA?
So morale sucks.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
To be honest with you, Dan, I was wondering about this.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
I don't know if you guys have talked about this,
but you and Shaq and Kenny and Ernie, how about
just form a production company and continue to shoot, continue
to do the inside the NBA, hire the personnel, keep
the personnel there, continue to do it in Atlanta, and
then you're able to sell that to NBC or Amazon
(16:56):
and say here, you already got the best studio show
ready to go. Keep everybody in place. But you guys
own your own production company.
Speaker 14 (17:06):
Well, I've talked to the guys about everybody sign up
with my production company because I have my own production
company and I want to I would love to do
that if we lose it, but I have definitely had Actually,
somebody suggested that to me to be honest with you
on the internet.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
So why don't you, as.
Speaker 14 (17:23):
Barkers, sign these three guys four guys total this his
production company and sell it. I'm like, that's a great idea. Yeah,
But like I said, you know, we're just sitting back
waiting on these people to figure out what they're gonna do.
You know, you know my two favorite wines are Ingle
Nook and Opus. And these clowns I work for they've
(17:45):
turned us into Ripple and booms Farm and Thunderberg.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
Like we got the.
Speaker 14 (17:49):
Best studio show we want. We just and it's so funny.
We just want the best studio show. But these foods
turn us from Inglenook and Opah's Enter, Damn booms Farm
and Ripple.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
It's crazy.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
You're actually angry, I am, you know.
Speaker 14 (18:04):
Dan, it's so interesting. I've been spending a lot of
time with the crew lately. I've actually they've been with
these guys who I spent time with. Their they bring
their newborns in, they bring their kids in. They'd come
in like when they were in high school and now
they're graduating for college. I mean, that's how long.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
You know.
Speaker 14 (18:26):
Ernie's been there thirty two years, Kenny's been there twenty seven.
I've been there twenty four. But think about that, some
of these people I work with. They bought their new
boys there and they say, hello, old of us. They
bought them in in high school when they graduated, and
now they've already graduated from college. So yeah, I'm angry
people who are like, you know, they're part of my family,
to be honest with you, So and I feel bad
(18:47):
for those guys.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
Yeah, but how did you guys screw it up? How
did tant mess this up?
Speaker 4 (18:53):
Well?
Speaker 14 (18:54):
I think the first thing is, you know, they came
out and said we didn't need the NBA. So I
think that probably pissed Adam off. I don't know that,
but I'm saying, like, you don't because you know, when
we merge, that's the first thing. Our boss said we
don't need the NBA. But he don't need it, but
the rest of the people meet Kenny, Shack and Ernie
and the people who work there, we need it. So
(19:16):
it just sucks right now. And you know the thing
that's interesting me Kenny Ernie talk about in Shack all
the time, like people walk up to me.
Speaker 4 (19:25):
I'm not even joking. Twenty times a day.
Speaker 14 (19:28):
I'm like, dude, thank you for the kind words, but
I have a zero idea what's going to happen.
Speaker 4 (19:33):
Yeah, you know, it's funny, like you can't go anywhere.
Speaker 14 (19:37):
And then what's really frustrating I'm getting we all are
getting sent like five seven articles a day about we've
already lost it or we own life support. TNT's trying
a fourth quarter comeback, and I don't know Bill Simmons,
who you know a big Bill Simmons fan. He's sending me,
(19:59):
he's sending this, sending those articles like it's already they've
already lost it, it's made it.
Speaker 4 (20:03):
It's over with.
Speaker 14 (20:04):
I was listening to Mad Dog Russo the other day.
He's like, oh, the deal's over with, it's already going
to NBC. So I don't know what to believe. So
it sucks for the people, for all of us.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Talking to Charles Barkley, the Hall of Famer TNT's inside
the NBA. Let me start with last night Kyrie Irving.
You know, he's had a quietly great year, like quite
off the court, played well on the court, and it's
almost like this resurgence maybe with Kyrie that now we
kind of rediscover his basketball talents there.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
What do you see when you see Kyrie? Now?
Speaker 14 (20:42):
Well, I think it's great that people seeing what a
great player he is instead of all the stuff that
was going on when he was in Brooklyn and things
like that, because he's an unbelievable player.
Speaker 4 (20:54):
You know, you know, Dan, I'm really glad.
Speaker 14 (20:56):
I went back and looked at a bunch of tape
on my two off days and said, you know, because
I was caught up in the excitement, I said, man
in Minnesota, Minnesota, Minnesota. But then when I went back
and looked at tap for two days, I was like, Damn,
the MAV's gonna win this series. And I still think
they're gonna win this series. They got a lot of
severe matchup the big guys. Was scary about that game
(21:17):
last night is they didn't make any shots. I think
they were six or like thirty from three. They're gonna
get wide open threes because my biggest considered a Minnesota.
They got two issues that I don't like. Number One,
I don't think they can guard a good three point
shooting team because they played those two big guys. And secondly,
(21:37):
Carl Anton Town, who was a very good player, I
don't think he ever used his size to his advantage.
I think he shoots. I think he waited always shoot
two minuy threes because he's the only player in the
NBA gonna have a size advantage every night. Every night
he plays, is he playing that for a position? He's
gonna have a size advantage every single night. But he
(21:59):
never I saw him post up more against Denver and
against the Sons, and I've ever seen him in his career,
and he was very effective. But last night he went
back to the guy that drives me crazy. He shot
nine threes and I'm like, damn, dude, you're seven feet tall.
The guy you're playing against the six seven. Every time
you shoot the three, he's like, thank god, I ain't
got I ain't got to wrestle with this guy in
(22:21):
the post.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
So that's why I like the MAVs.
Speaker 14 (22:25):
And but I tell you what, you know, the Celtics man,
they really miss Porzos, Gonzingers, Gauzinga's whatever his name is,
because they really miss him because he's the only guy
who posts up, and he's the only one who shrinks
the floor for Jalen and Jason because you have to
guard him the whole time. So that's going to be
a really good series. Rick Carlile and the patients have
(22:48):
done a hell of a job, and they gave a
game away. Man, I was so pissed watching that game
the other night. They fled out, gave that game away.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
Well, you know, back to Dallas.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
So I was surprised that they dominated in the paint
downas dominated Minnesota in the paint. They outscored them sixty
two to thirty eight in the paint. So you got
those big guys, but.
Speaker 14 (23:11):
They don't play big. It doesn't matter how big you're off,
you don't play big. And the way they play defense,
they play that drop where the guy just bags up.
Speaker 4 (23:19):
You know what it's like.
Speaker 14 (23:21):
It's like when I'm betting on football and your team
gets the lead and they play that damn prevent defense
and the other team gets a back door cover. That
pisses that day, and that pisses me off every time
I'm watching football. I'm like, good, we got the league.
We can't lose the game. All we got to do
is stop him one more time. And they play that
(23:42):
prevent defense. I call it prevent from winning. And when
the guy drops, when the guy drops, he's useless. He
does nothing. He don't stop either play. He doesn't stop
the lob and he don't stop Luca or Kyrie from scoring. Now,
the problem that Wolve's gotten now is they're probably gonna
double that going forward because you know, in every game
you make adjustment. Now, what that's gonna do is owen
(24:06):
up Dallas three point shooting. They didn't make any in
Game one, but they gonna get the same shots they
got in Game two they got in Game one.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Just saw this.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
The Cavaliers have fired their head coach, JB. Bicker Steph.
I guess far.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
I have no idea. They had a nice season, you
know what.
Speaker 4 (24:26):
Let me tell you something.
Speaker 14 (24:27):
I'm so disgusted with these punk ass NBA players today.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
The same thing happened to Darvin Ham and Frank Vogel.
Speaker 14 (24:36):
You know, it's always somebody else's faults. Bernie, his dad,
Bernie is a great guy. But he didn't deserve to
get fired. You know, they wait, his second best player
was out.
Speaker 4 (24:50):
You know. So, man, this is the NBA today.
Speaker 14 (24:52):
The players take no responsibility, zero responsibility. But that's the
third fire. And like Frank Vogel, Darwn Ham and now
bicker Steff. But you know, you know when I end
up when I interviewed for a couple of jobs, uh
for a general manager, I wanted complete control.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
Wait wait, wait, wait, hold on, when did you when's
the last time you interviewed for front I've.
Speaker 14 (25:16):
Interviewed for three front office jobs in the last not
it's been probably about five to seven years. But I
want a complete control because I know because as a
general manager or president of basketball operations, you get to
fire like four guys before people realize you're the problem.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
I do, I do, I think. I think.
Speaker 14 (25:37):
I think being the president or the gym is the
best job because you're the one who picking the players
and you're the one who making trades. But I think
you get to scapegoat at least three, more likely four
coaches because people never say, say, who put this crappy
ass team together? They are it's easier to fire the
(25:57):
coach and you get to hide out behind closed doors.
So that's when I like, when I in the interview
for those jobs, I'm like, yeah, this is a job
I want because I got great job security before people realize, like, wait,
you're the head coach. You get away with murder. You
get to make all these bad trades and bad decisions.
(26:19):
But if you fire a coach, it kind of shot
clock like starts on you again. So that's the best
job in sports, being a gym in the NBA or
president of basketball operations.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
What were the teams that you interviewed with.
Speaker 14 (26:31):
I'd rather not say that because I don't want people
to know I was talking about coaches behind their back.
Speaker 4 (26:35):
To be honest with.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
You, Okay, what about if somebody said, right now to
you do you want it's.
Speaker 14 (26:39):
Probably too It's probably too late for me now. It's
probably too late because I want to do that in
my fifties.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
I'm six.
Speaker 14 (26:46):
I just turned sixty one, so I probably wouldn't do
it now. To be honest with you, well, shit, I
might not have a job.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
What I'm saying, you got a lot of free time,
perhaps coming up.
Speaker 4 (26:57):
Hey you know what, Dan, Hey, I love you. Dan.
Speaker 14 (27:00):
You know, when I put my resume on Lincoln the
other day, they call me back and says, you've never
had a real job.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
I said, you don't have a resume.
Speaker 4 (27:09):
I don't.
Speaker 14 (27:10):
That's what I said when I put When I put
my tough on Lincoln the other day, they're like, have
you ever had like a real job?
Speaker 4 (27:16):
I said, nope.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
Wait when you're growing up, did you work like at
dairy Queen or pizza Hut or any of those places.
Speaker 14 (27:24):
No, I'm in a small town then a couple thousand people.
There's no dairy queen and none all that stuff in Leeds, Alabama.
I've never you know, That's what's really funny. And I'm
lucky and bliss. I want to make that clear. I've
actually never had a real job. Man, can you believe that?
Speaker 3 (27:38):
Good for you?
Speaker 4 (27:39):
Good for lucky? Hey, I'm lucky.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
Yeah, you're going to go wire to wire without having
a job in your life.
Speaker 4 (27:45):
I was going to ask you, I hope.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
So the the five, I could make an argument the
five best players in the world are not from the
United States, right, So I could I could give you Luca,
I could give you Yo Kicch, I could give you Jannis,
I could give you Shay Gilgis, and I could give
you Joe l m beat easily.
Speaker 14 (28:06):
And you know what's funny about that. I've been pushing
the NBA for the last you know, the All Star
Game sucks. I've been pushing for the last probably seven years,
the United States against the world.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
Are there enough good players?
Speaker 4 (28:22):
Though?
Speaker 2 (28:22):
With the world? Now I gave you five. I gotta
get about you.
Speaker 14 (28:27):
Didn't mention Rudy Gobert, he's not from this country. Who
else I'm trying to think I happened to see that's
the problem. I think are top heavy. Yeah, we are
top heavy, but you know there's some other players. I mean,
I don't have the list in front of me, but
you know, like I say, Pastoral, yes, Pastor, Laurie Marketing,
(28:55):
Laurie Marketing.
Speaker 4 (28:56):
Now we up to step up to I mean, think about.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
It, Dan, we got seven round.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
You know what. I think the NBA is afraid of
that the United States would lose. I know I do.
It's like, yo, man, the All Star Game sucks.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
So I could get like Franz Wagner.
Speaker 4 (29:11):
Oh yeah, both for the Wagner brothers.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
Yeah, sure they're All Stars now.
Speaker 4 (29:15):
Damn.
Speaker 14 (29:17):
Jo come on, man, we got him, know, And I
think I think, I think Adam. You know, I love Adam,
I love him a lot. He's a great dude, Adam Sovie.
But I think they afraid that the United States would lose.
Speaker 15 (29:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
This goes back to you guys in the Dream Team,
because if I go back that this is thirty two
years ago for the Dream Team and the impact that
it had. And I remember David Stern saying that to
me that this will, this is about globalization. This is
our best players. The world will be able to play
against our best players and then it will force them
(29:50):
to go back to improve.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
And it turned out to be true.
Speaker 14 (29:54):
Well, that's why I think David Stern is the greatest
commissioner ever.
Speaker 4 (29:58):
He made the NBA will what it is today. It's
a global game.
Speaker 14 (30:02):
You know, when we go overseas and play, there's fifty
thousand people in these arenas. That's the genius of David Stearns.
He made to you know, when I talk, you know,
it's so crazy.
Speaker 4 (30:13):
You know.
Speaker 14 (30:13):
One of my favorite people all time is Dirt Nowitzki,
and we had him on the show a couple of
weeks ago.
Speaker 3 (30:19):
He was great.
Speaker 4 (30:20):
He was great. He's just a great person though.
Speaker 14 (30:23):
And he was telling this story that the reason he
wears forty one is because of me, because you know,
on the Dream Team I had number fourteen and Robert
Pack wouldn't give him fourteen, so he wore forty one.
And he told me, and I knew the story and Dirk,
like I said, Dirk Man, it was just a good dude.
Speaker 3 (30:43):
And you tried to get him to Auburn, didn't you.
Speaker 4 (30:45):
I did. I tried to. Well, you know, it's so funny.
Speaker 14 (30:47):
We were playing like Nike had always taken us to
different countries every year, and Dirk's got like thirty one
at halftime against us, like we NBA players, we're all
not prime.
Speaker 4 (30:58):
He got like to yo, man, who the damn white dude?
Speaker 14 (31:01):
He got like thirty thirty one at halftime, and Scotty
Pippen like I got him in the second half. I
got him, and Dirk Fin's was like fifty and I
was like, yo, man, who the hell aut you? And
he just like I'm dirting the biscuit blah blah blah
he said. I said, Yo, man, how much money you
want to come to Alburt. He's like no, He's like,
I gotta go in the army. I said, oh man,
(31:21):
you should be tall, and it's not going.
Speaker 4 (31:24):
In the army.
Speaker 14 (31:25):
And I got I got all this contact and everything,
and Nik called me like a couple of months later
and like he got drafted, and I was like, oh man,
that I would have loved him at Auburn, but I
don't want to.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
See you work nil before nil.
Speaker 14 (31:42):
Hey, brother, I just want I just I just want
allburn to be good. You imagine I didn't even mind
Dirk breaking all my records. He would have been great
at Auburn. Yeah, you know, we know what's crazy. And
I hate to say this about the guy because he
was a really good dude, but he passed away Robert
tracktor trailer. You know people don't even realize is that
the Maths didn't even draft Dirk. And if you look
(32:05):
at it, and that's probably gonna go down. Like I said,
Robert was a great kid and a good player. But
if you look at it from a serious standpoint, that's
probably gonna go down as one of the worst trades ever.
You know, that's gonna go down as one of the
worst trade evers.
Speaker 10 (32:20):
Uh.
Speaker 14 (32:20):
But Robert was a good dude. I hate talk about
he passed away a few years ago. Good dude, good player.
But trading Robert tractor trailer for dirt nubisky is gonna
go down. That's got to be one of the worst
trades in the history of civilization.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
Well, you also had the one the Celtics did with
was that Joe Barry Carroll and they ended up getting
Robert Parrish and Kevin McHale for Joe Barry Carroll.
Speaker 4 (32:42):
Yeah, that's a bad one too. That's a real bad one.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
Also, the Sixers, they're what they got for you when
they traded you to Phoenix.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
That wasn't very good.
Speaker 4 (32:51):
They got four good players.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
Mmm. Nice, you're being you're being friendly, complimentary.
Speaker 4 (32:58):
Damn, they got four players? What else you want?
Speaker 2 (33:02):
They need a few more good ones though, Yeah? Yeah,
uh so what do you do today on an off
day in Minnesota?
Speaker 14 (33:10):
Yeah, Dan, I need to talk to you about your show.
You got to start doing your show later. I'm not
used to getting up early, I would, Dan, I want
to tell you that before were like, damn, Dan, I'm

How are you great?
Speaker 4 (37:42):
Jody?
Speaker 16 (37:44):
Hey?
Speaker 17 (37:46):
I love to hear that you have been flyfishing in
Montana because that is my favorite place to go every summer.
So what I would like is if there's any way
we can get any fly fishing tops with your.
Speaker 9 (37:59):
Low on it.
Speaker 2 (38:01):
Oh as far as a merchandise idea, well, I don't
know how big the fly fishing community is and if
they're listening to this program. Danettes don't fly fish just me?
But uh, Montana great, wonderful, beautiful area. Go up there
for trout. Yes, John, fish, you do not even f

Scott and Charlotte, Hey Scott, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 4 (38:36):
Hey?
Speaker 16 (38:36):
Dan?
Speaker 15 (38:36):
Thanks for taking the call. Here's how I see the
Danettes in their suits today. Seaton, that's your obvious criminal defendant.
He's charged with some type of drinking offense. Fritzy that's
Seaton's public defender. He's overworked, he's underpaid. And then Marvin,
that's your high price private defense attorney. Seaton can't afford
(38:57):
and that's why he stuck with Fritzy.
Speaker 3 (39:00):
Thank you, Scott.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
Interesting, Yeah, Robin Orlando, Hi Ron, Wow.
Speaker 16 (39:07):
Man, he kind of took some thunder away from me.
But I don't know what this says about about Seaton.
But I have seen and go in front of a
judge for a drunken disorderly. I have Fritzie as his
probation officer. I have Marmon as a as a pastor
of the Church of God, and I.
Speaker 4 (39:23):
Get a men brother and.
Speaker 16 (39:25):
Uh for Paulie, man, dude, dude looks like he runs
a fishing charter out of the keys and flew into
town for a for a funeral and claimed he lost
his luggage.
Speaker 3 (39:35):
All thank you, Ron, it's very specific, Yeah, very names.
Speaker 2 (39:39):
Yeah yeah. I encouraged the Danis to dress up and
maybe that would change the perception of this show. And uh,
Todd has his suit and tie, so to Seaton, Marvin
is a bow tie on.
Speaker 5 (39:52):
Yes see, we are all sort of getting things in
the same vein. We've all been said that we look
like morticians. Paul is getting a lot of stay at
home dad in between jobs, independently wealthy tweets, Yeah, we're
all funeral directors. Todd has been every form of salesman,
from insurance car sales, the sales manager. A lot of
(40:14):
talk about what I'm on trial for, or I look
like I'm very tired. Either I'm a tired detective. I'm
a business traveler who's on the last leg of his
seventh flight. Marvin looks like let's see a teacher chaperoning
a school dance.
Speaker 9 (40:32):
Wo.
Speaker 5 (40:32):
He looks like he's about to lead his middle school
band class through to year end concert. Marvin also looks
like a little boy whose mom dressed him for church.
These are all kind of the themes that we're all getting.
Speaker 2 (40:46):
Their profiling is what they they are. We're all being
definitely profiling. One more hour to go.
Speaker 4 (40:52):
How do I get you into this vehicle today?
Speaker 3 (40:54):
What do I need to do so you can get
this vehicle today?
Speaker 4 (40:56):
I know you want to drive it off.
Speaker 2 (40:58):
You're a teacher for a student teacher? Yeah, all right,
final hour on this Thursday. On the way after this
You are listening to The Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
It's our two on this Thursday, Dan and the Dan
It's Dan Patrick Show. Charles Barkley will stop my he'll
answer the question or questions about the future of inside
the NBA on TNT, because it looks like it's moving elsewhere,
and I wonder about this. Let's say TNT loses the NBA.
They're going to have the NBA for one more year,
(00:25):
it looks like, and then it'll go to NBC. It's
also Disney, which is ABC, and ESPN and Amazon getting
into the game. But if I'm Shack and Charles, Ernie
Kenny and maybe some of the producers there, I just say,
you know what, how about we do our own show
(00:48):
and then license it to NBC. Start a production company.
That way, you're going to continue to shoot it, find
a studio, and then you're going to rent out a studio,
have the equipment with the people there, and you're then
going to say we're shooting this in Atlanta. So Ernie
is going to stay because if they have to move
(01:08):
to New York or Connecticut, wherever it might be, Ernie's
not moving. But if you can stay in Atlanta. Keep
everybody there, keep that show together. And if i'm Shaq
Charles Kenny, let's just form a production company and we'll
do the show and then we'll sell it to NBC.
(01:29):
So we'll talk to Charles coming up. And don't adjust
your dial if you're watching on TV. Yes, the dan
Nts are dressed up today. Fritzie's got a suit and tie,
Setan's got a suit in time, Marvin's got a bow
tie on that was tied by his wife. Pauli has
a T shirt on. He didn't get the memo, but
three of the four dan Nts look pretty sharp today.
(01:51):
And we were wondering if we're going to step up
our game and maybe go into the daytime Emmys, no
Sports Emmys anymore, the daytime Emmys, then maybe we got
dress this show up a little bit here, and three
of the dann Nets did a wonderful job here. Now
we would like to know what you think their jobs
would be if you just base this off how they
(02:12):
dressed today, So Todd, Seton and Marvin and you can
go to our Twitter page at DP show. Also check
out the YouTube channel every day. Say good morning to
those watching on Peacock and our radio affiliates around the country,
including iHeartRadio, Fox Sports Radio, Mavericks beat the Wolves and
they won it by three. They're up one to zero
(02:32):
in the series. Tonight, Pacers Celtics Game two. You had
the Celtics favored by nine and the Oilers at the Stars.
That will be Game one. I told you this was
going to happen, and it did. You got Dallas Western
Conference Finals, Stars, Western Conference Finals, Rangers.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Win the World Series. Now you're starting to see this.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
What about the Cowboys? More pressure on the Cowboys this year.
It's been thirty years since they've done anything. Now the
Cowboy's more pressure. Anyway, you can get the Cowboys into
a show today and then you could talk about Dax's
contract and all of those things.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
Also, there's other NFL news.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
You might not know it if you watch some of
these shows, but you know to his situation is interesting.
Jordan Love's situation is interesting. And if you're going to
give to a cont now, I wouldn't do this. I
would not give him a contract before the season. I
would say let's see it one more time to him.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
Now.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
I might be bothered by that, but I would say, look,
you're going to have matters in your own hands. You're
betting on yourself. We've given you two great wide receivers
and we just signed Odell Beckham Junior. Go out there,
do what you did last year. You'll be compensated. I
don't want to do what Arizona did with Kyler Murray.
(04:00):
Never would have extended him that early. Now some you know,
some of these players, do I get it, you know,
whether it's Mahomes or Josh Allen or Joe Burrow, justin Herbert,
some of these quarterbacks I got to see. I got
to see a larger sample size. Plus, if I get
you in earlier, a year earlier, that means you start
(04:20):
on that next contract a year earlier as well. It's
going to cost you more money. I know you want
to take care of your players, but with Tua, I
have to see another year. Just do health wise. He
played well, didn't get hurt last year. But I got
to see a little bit more. Here is Jordan Love,
the Packers quarterback. He's asked about a contract extension as
(04:42):
well as your.
Speaker 5 (04:44):
Agent said, you're not stepping on the field for a
preseason game until you have a deal done or something
like that.
Speaker 6 (04:48):
No, so I don't really know what's going on, but
we'll see. But I'm not gonna get into too much
contract stuff.
Speaker 7 (04:54):
Would you be comfortable playing under the current deal or
is that something that you don't want to do with
you We'll see.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
I don't know yet.
Speaker 6 (05:00):
You know, we'll see.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
Okay, boy, you don't want that good will to go away.
What happened last year with Jordan Love?
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Build off of that thirty two touchdowns you beat the
Cowboys in Dallas. I mean, i'd want to see another year.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
Great year.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
I got to see another year got to be It's
a lot of money to tie up. All of a sudden,
you turn around and you go defenses kind of responded
to him. Usually that first time around, you see quarterbacks
who are successful can be successful that you know, the
really good ones. Then you want to see what the
defenses do, and then you're going to find out maybe
(05:41):
a whole lot more about Jordan Love this year than
you did last year. But I don't want to jump
the gun. I mean, it's nice to do that. If
you give me a team friendly deal, I'll let you
get into that next deal a year earlier.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Because Mahomes did that with the Chiefs. That was a
team friendly.
Speaker 8 (06:01):
Yes, Todd, I'm not the best with social cues, but
I got the impression from Love he didn't really want
to talk about contract.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Did you guys pick up on them? You know what?
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Play it again, Marvin, as your.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
Agent said, you're not stepping on the field for a
preseason game until you have a deal done or.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
Something like that.
Speaker 6 (06:15):
No, so I don't really know what's going on, but
we'll see, but I'm not going to get into too
much contract stuff.
Speaker 7 (06:21):
Would you be comfortable playing under the current deal or
is that something that you don't want to.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
Do at this point? We'll see.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
I don't know yet, you know, we'll see. Okay, anybody
else want to ask?
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Yeah, he didn't want to talk about it. But then
let me ask you one more question.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
But you would sit out though if you came like.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
You, are you comfortable going.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
To want to be traded if you don't get the money.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Look, we're asking leading questions there to the witness.
Speaker 9 (06:46):
Yes, Paul, guys like Jordan Love and Tua could sign
kind of like a like a two thirds level contract
of that massive like the Joe Burrow contract. That's what
everybody wants. The Joe Burrow plus one more dollar. Daniel
Jones took a four year, one hundred and sixty million
dollar contract extension because they didn't pick up a fifth
year option. He took less in comparison to what all
(07:06):
those other guys make, and it's probably not gonna work out,
but there's there's more of an out with a contract
like his.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
He's all set up. Yeah, but he had no other choice. No,
I'm saying, but what he did, the.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Amount of money, Yeah, I agree, it's like for Mayfield. Yeah,
like you know, there's nothing wrong with that middle ground here.
I mean, Toua shouldn't be paid sixty million dollars, Dak
shouldn't be paid sixty million dollars. Only a couple of
these quarterbacks should be Hey, you're the next guy up.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
We're going to pay you.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
And go back to Lamar Ember last year, Hey you
want Lamar give up two first round draft picks. Nobody
and I kept saying, Atlanta, give him two first round
draft picks, bring him in. Can you imagine Lamar with
that offense in Atlanta? Who cares about a draft pick?
(07:57):
Give me a quarterback who can play now, especially for
a franchise that has needed a quarterback.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Nobody wanted him.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Nobody was going to give up two first round picks
because you were going to have to pay him. And
then he stays, obviously it gets paid, and it's the MVP.
All right, Seaton poll question for hour two, who is
going to be won?
Speaker 5 (08:18):
Yeah, we got up there right now, which is the
we have a poll question about generic excuses almost ax
for losing a game. Okay, yeah, it just was not
our night. We didn't execute the way we wanted to,
or some of us didn't want it enough.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Well, Anthony Edwards said that maybe maybe well play it.
Here's Anthony Edwards after the loss.
Speaker 5 (08:41):
Did you think that the high from Game seven maybe.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
Kind of affected you guys coming in today at all?
Speaker 3 (08:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (08:48):
For sure.
Speaker 10 (08:48):
I mean I can see it was a little a
step a step behind everybody, especially myself. Kyrie got a
transition layup from I think we scored and he just
out rammed me.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
I was just exhausted, man. So yeah, for sure, but
we'll be all right.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
He's honest sometimes to a fault.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
You're twenty two, Kyrie, I think's thirty two, and he's
blowing by you. You're only going to get more tired. Going,
you know, as you play basketball. It's not like you go,
we'll be fine, We'll be refreshed. Okay, they got to
come up with a different defensive philosophy here because you
(09:28):
allow Dallas to dominate in the paint. And I never
thought I'd be saying that today after last night, but
they did. They outscored the Timberwolves sixty two to thirty
eight in the paint.
Speaker 8 (09:39):
Yes, Marvin, and that play happened in the first quarter
with Kyrie. Yeah, yeah, Like, what do you mean you're
exhausted now?
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Mike and Wisconsin? Hi Mike, what's on your mind?
Speaker 11 (09:51):
Mark Fellas? Two quick things for you. So, first thing
is Fritzy my son got a new pet Hamster named
it cod spelled t one d.
Speaker 4 (10:05):
Nice.
Speaker 11 (10:06):
Second second thing, just an idea maybe to get you
guys over the hump to win that sports hebby, you know,
maybe try something different, you know, just try going unscripted
for a little.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
Bit, you knowing it.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Thank you, Mike.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
I forget when somebody did somebody the email us or
tweet that this show is scripted? I forget who how that?
How did that surface here?
Speaker 3 (10:30):
You guys read me?
Speaker 11 (10:31):
It was a thing.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
Yeah, It's probably a thing on social media where they
were like, well, I don't know these guys. Whoever writes
their scripts needs to do better something.
Speaker 9 (10:39):
It was on our Facebook page and someone posted it
as if they were being serious about it, and a
lot of people joked about it, and a coupleople thought
that it could be a scripted three hour radio show.
Speaker 5 (10:50):
Now does that help our daytime Emmy candidacy or heard it?
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Well, I'd like to dispel the fact that this is.
Speaker 5 (11:00):
I mean to be fair, MLB tonight is almost.
Speaker 8 (11:04):
Script You're right, You're right, it's all scripted. So no
more table reads now. And then we say thank you, Todd,
and then we laugh.
Speaker 5 (11:15):
Says I don't know if my character would say that. Actually,
I think it doesn't really feel like me.
Speaker 9 (11:21):
Can we talk about the eighty five Bears, Dan.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
No, Paul Michael and Fort Wayne. Hey, Mike, what's on
your mind today?
Speaker 4 (11:31):
Hey?
Speaker 12 (11:31):
Good morning, Dan, Thanks for taking my call. I've got
two short comments for you. The first about the international
presence of the NBA. I think it's a matter of necessity.
With the NFL taking more and more of a market share,
especially on TV holiday scheduling, it seems like the NBA
really has no choice but to keep going out further
and further international if they want to grow the game.
(11:53):
And second comment about seat and suit, it reminds me
of time when people used to dress up for a
basketball games and state that Bob Coosey was the most
unstoppable force they'd ever seen.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Look at him, go Yeah, if this show is in
black and white, Seaton would look like he was showing
up at the Boston Garden to watch Bob Cozy.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
He's unstoppable.
Speaker 5 (12:16):
Well, we've never seen anything like it.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Look at him go the most unstoppable fault this league
has ever seen, the fact that Bob Coosey only used
his right hand and you still couldn't stop it.
Speaker 8 (12:28):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
Like, if you watch him dribble, he's just got He's
just going to magician out there. Good luck catching up
to that one, Curly. You know, when you're watching the
Harlem Globetrotters, you know, I get it, it's part of
the act. Like you're not going to steal the ball
from Curly Neil or Marcus Haynes. Bob Coozy he's just
dribbling around the Lakers like they and they have no
answer for him.
Speaker 5 (12:51):
Yes, he drives to the hoop for some reason, goes
around the back with the ball and then lays it
in even though there's nobody near.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
Him to pass it too.
Speaker 8 (12:59):
Yes, I know we laughed now. But was Bob Coozy
basically the Kyrie of his day?
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Uh? I think Kyrie is the Bob Coozy of his day.
Speaker 5 (13:10):
The most skilled player to ever do it. In that
line of people who have worn that title, yeah, Bob
Coozy would be in it.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Was he the first truly skilled player in NBA history.
Speaker 9 (13:22):
He led the league and assists eight years in a row,
and he also averaged about twenty points a game, so
he's well balanced.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
I think he was an MVP one year. Yep.
Speaker 8 (13:32):
Those set shots were nasty.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
That one handed push shots. Yes, And then all of
a sudden, Jerry West came into the NBA. And if
you watch when Jerry first came in, old NBA players
shooting set shots or one handed push shots, Jerry comes
in taking people off the dribble, and you're like, hold on.
It's almost like everybody was in black and white and
(13:56):
Jerry was in color, and you're like, oh, there's a
day different player coming into the NBA.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
All right, Let me take a break.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
The great Charles Barkley will join us coming up next year,
Dan Patrick Show.

Speaker 2 (14:58):
Yeah, he's Charles Barkley, Hall of Famer TNT inside the
NBA joining us on the program.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
How's morale? Charles?
Speaker 14 (15:08):
Well, two things, Dan, Number one, Mercedes is a great car, Okay,
but don't buy it if you can't afford it. Let's
get that out the way, all right, Only get a merced.
Mercedes is an amazing car. I've had a few in
my life, but don't buy it unless you can afford it.
Stop trying to impress other people. Morale sucks, plain and simple.
(15:30):
You know, I just feel so bad for the people
I work with. Dan, you know, you know these people
have families, and I just really feel bad for them
right now. You know, these people I work with, they
screwed this thing up clearly, and we don't have zero
I do what's gonna happen?
Speaker 4 (15:48):
I don't feel good. I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 14 (15:49):
Especially when they came out yesterday and said we bought
college football. I was like, well, damn, they could have
used that money they buy the NBA.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
But it says that TNT Sports added college football playoff
games and a five year deal they're licensing deal with ESPN.
Maybe that's why they're buying this because they don't, you know,
the money they were going to use on the NBA
they got to do something with.
Speaker 14 (16:19):
Yeah, that's what That's the first thing came to my mind.
We've never had college football, that never been involved with
college football, and I'm like, wait a minute, shouldn't we
be spending every time we got to keep the NBA?
So morale sucks.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
To be honest with you, Dan, I was wondering about this.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
I don't know if you guys have talked about this,
but you and Shaq and Kenny and Ernie, how about
just form a production company and continue to shoot, continue
to do the inside the NBA, hire the personnel, keep
the personnel there, continue to do it in Atlanta, and
then you're able to sell that to NBC or Amazon
(16:56):
and say here, you already got the best studio show
ready to go. Keep everybody in place. But you guys
own your own production company.
Speaker 14 (17:06):
Well, I've talked to the guys about everybody sign up
with my production company because I have my own production
company and I want to I would love to do
that if we lose it, but I have definitely had Actually,
somebody suggested that to me to be honest with you
on the internet.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
So why don't you, as.
Speaker 14 (17:23):
Barkers, sign these three guys four guys total this his
production company and sell it. I'm like, that's a great idea. Yeah,
But like I said, you know, we're just sitting back
waiting on these people to figure out what they're gonna do.
You know, you know my two favorite wines are Ingle
Nook and Opus. And these clowns I work for they've
(17:45):
turned us into Ripple and booms Farm and Thunderberg.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
Like we got the.
Speaker 14 (17:49):
Best studio show we want. We just and it's so funny.
We just want the best studio show. But these foods
turn us from Inglenook and Opah's Enter, Damn booms Farm
and Ripple.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
It's crazy.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
You're actually angry, I am, you know.
Speaker 14 (18:04):
Dan, it's so interesting. I've been spending a lot of
time with the crew lately. I've actually they've been with
these guys who I spent time with. Their they bring
their newborns in, they bring their kids in. They'd come
in like when they were in high school and now
they're graduating for college. I mean, that's how long.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
You know.
Speaker 14 (18:26):
Ernie's been there thirty two years, Kenny's been there twenty seven.
I've been there twenty four. But think about that, some
of these people I work with. They bought their new
boys there and they say, hello, old of us. They
bought them in in high school when they graduated, and
now they've already graduated from college. So yeah, I'm angry
people who are like, you know, they're part of my family,
to be honest with you, So and I feel bad
(18:47):
for those guys.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
Yeah, but how did you guys screw it up? How
did tant mess this up?
Speaker 4 (18:53):
Well?
Speaker 14 (18:54):
I think the first thing is, you know, they came
out and said we didn't need the NBA. So I
think that probably pissed Adam off. I don't know that,
but I'm saying, like, you don't because you know, when
we merge, that's the first thing. Our boss said we
don't need the NBA. But he don't need it, but
the rest of the people meet Kenny, Shack and Ernie
and the people who work there, we need it. So
(19:16):
it just sucks right now. And you know the thing
that's interesting me Kenny Ernie talk about in Shack all
the time, like people walk up to me.
Speaker 4 (19:25):
I'm not even joking. Twenty times a day.
Speaker 14 (19:28):
I'm like, dude, thank you for the kind words, but
I have a zero idea what's going to happen.
Speaker 4 (19:33):
Yeah, you know, it's funny, like you can't go anywhere.
Speaker 14 (19:37):
And then what's really frustrating I'm getting we all are
getting sent like five seven articles a day about we've
already lost it or we own life support. TNT's trying
a fourth quarter comeback, and I don't know Bill Simmons,
who you know a big Bill Simmons fan. He's sending me,
(19:59):
he's sending this, sending those articles like it's already they've
already lost it, it's made it.
Speaker 4 (20:03):
It's over with.
Speaker 14 (20:04):
I was listening to Mad Dog Russo the other day.
He's like, oh, the deal's over with, it's already going
to NBC. So I don't know what to believe. So
it sucks for the people, for all of us.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Talking to Charles Barkley, the Hall of Famer TNT's inside
the NBA. Let me start with last night Kyrie Irving.
You know, he's had a quietly great year, like quite
off the court, played well on the court, and it's
almost like this resurgence maybe with Kyrie that now we
kind of rediscover his basketball talents there.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
What do you see when you see Kyrie? Now?
Speaker 14 (20:42):
Well, I think it's great that people seeing what a
great player he is instead of all the stuff that
was going on when he was in Brooklyn and things
like that, because he's an unbelievable player.
Speaker 4 (20:54):
You know, you know, Dan, I'm really glad.
Speaker 14 (20:56):
I went back and looked at a bunch of tape
on my two off days and said, you know, because
I was caught up in the excitement, I said, man
in Minnesota, Minnesota, Minnesota. But then when I went back
and looked at tap for two days, I was like, Damn,
the MAV's gonna win this series. And I still think
they're gonna win this series. They got a lot of
severe matchup the big guys. Was scary about that game
(21:17):
last night is they didn't make any shots. I think
they were six or like thirty from three. They're gonna
get wide open threes because my biggest considered a Minnesota.
They got two issues that I don't like. Number One,
I don't think they can guard a good three point
shooting team because they played those two big guys. And secondly,
(21:37):
Carl Anton Town, who was a very good player, I
don't think he ever used his size to his advantage.
I think he shoots. I think he waited always shoot
two minuy threes because he's the only player in the
NBA gonna have a size advantage every night. Every night
he plays, is he playing that for a position? He's
gonna have a size advantage every single night. But he
(21:59):
never I saw him post up more against Denver and
against the Sons, and I've ever seen him in his career,
and he was very effective. But last night he went
back to the guy that drives me crazy. He shot
nine threes and I'm like, damn, dude, you're seven feet tall.
The guy you're playing against the six seven. Every time
you shoot the three, he's like, thank god, I ain't
got I ain't got to wrestle with this guy in
(22:21):
the post.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
So that's why I like the MAVs.
Speaker 14 (22:25):
And but I tell you what, you know, the Celtics man,
they really miss Porzos, Gonzingers, Gauzinga's whatever his name is,
because they really miss him because he's the only guy
who posts up, and he's the only one who shrinks
the floor for Jalen and Jason because you have to
guard him the whole time. So that's going to be
a really good series. Rick Carlile and the patients have
(22:48):
done a hell of a job, and they gave a
game away. Man, I was so pissed watching that game
the other night. They fled out, gave that game away.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
Well, you know, back to Dallas.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
So I was surprised that they dominated in the paint
downas dominated Minnesota in the paint. They outscored them sixty
two to thirty eight in the paint. So you got
those big guys, but.
Speaker 14 (23:11):
They don't play big. It doesn't matter how big you're off,
you don't play big. And the way they play defense,
they play that drop where the guy just bags up.
Speaker 4 (23:19):
You know what it's like.
Speaker 14 (23:21):
It's like when I'm betting on football and your team
gets the lead and they play that damn prevent defense
and the other team gets a back door cover. That
pisses that day, and that pisses me off every time
I'm watching football. I'm like, good, we got the league.
We can't lose the game. All we got to do
is stop him one more time. And they play that
(23:42):
prevent defense. I call it prevent from winning. And when
the guy drops, when the guy drops, he's useless. He
does nothing. He don't stop either play. He doesn't stop
the lob and he don't stop Luca or Kyrie from scoring. Now,
the problem that Wolve's gotten now is they're probably gonna
double that going forward because you know, in every game
you make adjustment. Now, what that's gonna do is owen
(24:06):
up Dallas three point shooting. They didn't make any in
Game one, but they gonna get the same shots they
got in Game two they got in Game one.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Just saw this.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
The Cavaliers have fired their head coach, JB. Bicker Steph.
I guess far.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
I have no idea. They had a nice season, you
know what.
Speaker 4 (24:26):
Let me tell you something.
Speaker 14 (24:27):
I'm so disgusted with these punk ass NBA players today.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
The same thing happened to Darvin Ham and Frank Vogel.
Speaker 14 (24:36):
You know, it's always somebody else's faults. Bernie, his dad,
Bernie is a great guy. But he didn't deserve to
get fired. You know, they wait, his second best player
was out.
Speaker 4 (24:50):
You know. So, man, this is the NBA today.
Speaker 14 (24:52):
The players take no responsibility, zero responsibility. But that's the
third fire. And like Frank Vogel, Darwn Ham and now
bicker Steff. But you know, you know when I end
up when I interviewed for a couple of jobs, uh
for a general manager, I wanted complete control.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
Wait wait, wait, wait, hold on, when did you when's
the last time you interviewed for front I've.
Speaker 14 (25:16):
Interviewed for three front office jobs in the last not
it's been probably about five to seven years. But I
want a complete control because I know because as a
general manager or president of basketball operations, you get to
fire like four guys before people realize you're the problem.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
I do, I do, I think. I think.
Speaker 14 (25:37):
I think being the president or the gym is the
best job because you're the one who picking the players
and you're the one who making trades. But I think
you get to scapegoat at least three, more likely four
coaches because people never say, say, who put this crappy
ass team together? They are it's easier to fire the
(25:57):
coach and you get to hide out behind closed doors.
So that's when I like, when I in the interview
for those jobs, I'm like, yeah, this is a job
I want because I got great job security before people realize, like, wait,
you're the head coach. You get away with murder. You
get to make all these bad trades and bad decisions.
(26:19):
But if you fire a coach, it kind of shot
clock like starts on you again. So that's the best
job in sports, being a gym in the NBA or
president of basketball operations.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
What were the teams that you interviewed with.
Speaker 14 (26:31):
I'd rather not say that because I don't want people
to know I was talking about coaches behind their back.
Speaker 4 (26:35):
To be honest with.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
You, Okay, what about if somebody said, right now to
you do you want it's.
Speaker 14 (26:39):
Probably too It's probably too late for me now. It's
probably too late because I want to do that in
my fifties.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
I'm six.
Speaker 14 (26:46):
I just turned sixty one, so I probably wouldn't do
it now. To be honest with you, well, shit, I
might not have a job.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
What I'm saying, you got a lot of free time,
perhaps coming up.
Speaker 4 (26:57):
Hey you know what, Dan, Hey, I love you. Dan.
Speaker 14 (27:00):
You know, when I put my resume on Lincoln the
other day, they call me back and says, you've never
had a real job.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
I said, you don't have a resume.
Speaker 4 (27:09):
I don't.
Speaker 14 (27:10):
That's what I said when I put When I put
my tough on Lincoln the other day, they're like, have
you ever had like a real job?
Speaker 4 (27:16):
I said, nope.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
Wait when you're growing up, did you work like at
dairy Queen or pizza Hut or any of those places.
Speaker 14 (27:24):
No, I'm in a small town then a couple thousand people.
There's no dairy queen and none all that stuff in Leeds, Alabama.
I've never you know, That's what's really funny. And I'm
lucky and bliss. I want to make that clear. I've
actually never had a real job. Man, can you believe that?
Speaker 3 (27:38):
Good for you?
Speaker 4 (27:39):
Good for lucky? Hey, I'm lucky.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
Yeah, you're going to go wire to wire without having
a job in your life.
Speaker 4 (27:45):
I was going to ask you, I hope.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
So the the five, I could make an argument the
five best players in the world are not from the
United States, right, So I could I could give you Luca,
I could give you Yo Kicch, I could give you Jannis,
I could give you Shay Gilgis, and I could give
you Joe l m beat easily.
Speaker 14 (28:06):
And you know what's funny about that. I've been pushing
the NBA for the last you know, the All Star
Game sucks. I've been pushing for the last probably seven years,
the United States against the world.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
Are there enough good players?
Speaker 4 (28:22):
Though?
Speaker 2 (28:22):
With the world? Now I gave you five. I gotta
get about you.
Speaker 14 (28:27):
Didn't mention Rudy Gobert, he's not from this country. Who
else I'm trying to think I happened to see that's
the problem. I think are top heavy. Yeah, we are
top heavy, but you know there's some other players. I mean,
I don't have the list in front of me, but
you know, like I say, Pastoral, yes, Pastor, Laurie Marketing,
(28:55):
Laurie Marketing.
Speaker 4 (28:56):
Now we up to step up to I mean, think about.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
It, Dan, we got seven round.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
You know what. I think the NBA is afraid of
that the United States would lose. I know I do.
It's like, yo, man, the All Star Game sucks.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
So I could get like Franz Wagner.
Speaker 4 (29:11):
Oh yeah, both for the Wagner brothers.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
Yeah, sure they're All Stars now.
Speaker 4 (29:15):
Damn.
Speaker 14 (29:17):
Jo come on, man, we got him, know, And I
think I think, I think Adam. You know, I love Adam,
I love him a lot. He's a great dude, Adam Sovie.
But I think they afraid that the United States would lose.
Speaker 15 (29:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
This goes back to you guys in the Dream Team,
because if I go back that this is thirty two
years ago for the Dream Team and the impact that
it had. And I remember David Stern saying that to
me that this will, this is about globalization. This is
our best players. The world will be able to play
against our best players and then it will force them
(29:50):
to go back to improve.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
And it turned out to be true.
Speaker 14 (29:54):
Well, that's why I think David Stern is the greatest
commissioner ever.
Speaker 4 (29:58):
He made the NBA will what it is today. It's
a global game.
Speaker 14 (30:02):
You know, when we go overseas and play, there's fifty
thousand people in these arenas. That's the genius of David Stearns.
He made to you know, when I talk, you know,
it's so crazy.
Speaker 4 (30:13):
You know.
Speaker 14 (30:13):
One of my favorite people all time is Dirt Nowitzki,
and we had him on the show a couple of
weeks ago.
Speaker 3 (30:19):
He was great.
Speaker 4 (30:20):
He was great. He's just a great person though.
Speaker 14 (30:23):
And he was telling this story that the reason he
wears forty one is because of me, because you know,
on the Dream Team I had number fourteen and Robert
Pack wouldn't give him fourteen, so he wore forty one.
And he told me, and I knew the story and Dirk,
like I said, Dirk Man, it was just a good dude.
Speaker 3 (30:43):
And you tried to get him to Auburn, didn't you.
Speaker 4 (30:45):
I did. I tried to. Well, you know, it's so funny.
Speaker 14 (30:47):
We were playing like Nike had always taken us to
different countries every year, and Dirk's got like thirty one
at halftime against us, like we NBA players, we're all
not prime.
Speaker 4 (30:58):
He got like to yo, man, who the damn white dude?
Speaker 14 (31:01):
He got like thirty thirty one at halftime, and Scotty
Pippen like I got him in the second half. I
got him, and Dirk Fin's was like fifty and I
was like, yo, man, who the hell aut you? And
he just like I'm dirting the biscuit blah blah blah
he said. I said, Yo, man, how much money you
want to come to Alburt. He's like no, He's like,
I gotta go in the army. I said, oh man,
(31:21):
you should be tall, and it's not going.
Speaker 4 (31:24):
In the army.
Speaker 14 (31:25):
And I got I got all this contact and everything,
and Nik called me like a couple of months later
and like he got drafted, and I was like, oh man,
that I would have loved him at Auburn, but I
don't want to.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
See you work nil before nil.
Speaker 14 (31:42):
Hey, brother, I just want I just I just want
allburn to be good. You imagine I didn't even mind
Dirk breaking all my records. He would have been great
at Auburn. Yeah, you know, we know what's crazy. And
I hate to say this about the guy because he
was a really good dude, but he passed away Robert
tracktor trailer. You know people don't even realize is that
the Maths didn't even draft Dirk. And if you look
(32:05):
at it, and that's probably gonna go down. Like I said,
Robert was a great kid and a good player. But
if you look at it from a serious standpoint, that's
probably gonna go down as one of the worst trades ever.
You know, that's gonna go down as one of the
worst trade evers.
Speaker 10 (32:20):
Uh.
Speaker 14 (32:20):
But Robert was a good dude. I hate talk about
he passed away a few years ago. Good dude, good player.
But trading Robert tractor trailer for dirt nubisky is gonna
go down. That's got to be one of the worst
trades in the history of civilization.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
Well, you also had the one the Celtics did with
was that Joe Barry Carroll and they ended up getting
Robert Parrish and Kevin McHale for Joe Barry Carroll.
Speaker 4 (32:42):
Yeah, that's a bad one too. That's a real bad one.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
Also, the Sixers, they're what they got for you when
they traded you to Phoenix.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
That wasn't very good.
Speaker 4 (32:51):
They got four good players.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
Mmm. Nice, you're being you're being friendly, complimentary.
Speaker 4 (32:58):
Damn, they got four players? What else you want?
Speaker 2 (33:02):
They need a few more good ones though, Yeah? Yeah,
uh so what do you do today on an off
day in Minnesota?
Speaker 14 (33:10):
Yeah, Dan, I need to talk to you about your show.
You got to start doing your show later. I'm not
used to getting up early, I would, Dan, I want
to tell you that before were like, damn, Dan, I'm
only up this early right so to say, I'm going
right back to bed. Okay, but no, So I got

think his name is Jo.
Speaker 3 (34:02):
He's a really good friend. But you can't pronounce his name.
Speaker 14 (34:05):
Yeah, I don't know, I call it you know, you know,
I think that he's some mooing.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Like defensive Eze is easy.
Speaker 4 (34:16):
Yeah, who in the hell is calling my room? Now?
Speaker 9 (34:25):

How are you great?
Speaker 4 (37:42):
Jody?
Speaker 16 (37:44):
Hey?
Speaker 17 (37:46):
I love to hear that you have been flyfishing in
Montana because that is my favorite place to go every summer.
So what I would like is if there's any way
we can get any fly fishing tops with your.
Speaker 9 (37:59):
Low on it.
Speaker 2 (38:01):
Oh as far as a merchandise idea, well, I don't
know how big the fly fishing community is and if
they're listening to this program. Danettes don't fly fish just me?
But uh, Montana great, wonderful, beautiful area. Go up there
for trout. Yes, John, fish, you do not even f
(38:25):

Speaker 3 (38:27):
You don't fly fish. You don't fry fish. No, you don't.
Speaker 2 (38:31):
Scott and Charlotte, Hey Scott, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 4 (38:36):
Hey?
Speaker 16 (38:36):
Dan?
Speaker 15 (38:36):
Thanks for taking the call. Here's how I see the
Danettes in their suits today. Seaton, that's your obvious criminal defendant.
He's charged with some type of drinking offense. Fritzy that's
Seaton's public defender. He's overworked, he's underpaid. And then Marvin,
that's your high price private defense attorney. Seaton can't afford
(38:57):
and that's why he stuck with Fritzy.
Speaker 3 (39:00):
Thank you, Scott.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
Interesting, Yeah, Robin Orlando, Hi Ron, Wow.
Speaker 16 (39:07):
Man, he kind of took some thunder away from me.
But I don't know what this says about about Seaton.
But I have seen and go in front of a
judge for a drunken disorderly. I have Fritzie as his
probation officer. I have Marmon as a as a pastor
of the Church of God, and I.
Speaker 4 (39:23):
Get a men brother and.
Speaker 16 (39:25):
Uh for Paulie, man, dude, dude looks like he runs
a fishing charter out of the keys and flew into
town for a for a funeral and claimed he lost
his luggage.
Speaker 3 (39:35):
All thank you, Ron, it's very specific, Yeah, very names.
Speaker 2 (39:39):
Yeah yeah. I encouraged the Danis to dress up and
maybe that would change the perception of this show. And uh,
Todd has his suit and tie, so to Seaton, Marvin
is a bow tie on.
Speaker 5 (39:52):
Yes see, we are all sort of getting things in
the same vein. We've all been said that we look
like morticians. Paul is getting a lot of stay at
home dad in between jobs, independently wealthy tweets, Yeah, we're
all funeral directors. Todd has been every form of salesman,
from insurance car sales, the sales manager. A lot of
(40:14):
talk about what I'm on trial for, or I look
like I'm very tired. Either I'm a tired detective. I'm
a business traveler who's on the last leg of his
seventh flight. Marvin looks like let's see a teacher chaperoning
a school dance.
Speaker 9 (40:32):
Wo.
Speaker 5 (40:32):
He looks like he's about to lead his middle school
band class through to year end concert. Marvin also looks
like a little boy whose mom dressed him for church.
These are all kind of the themes that we're all getting.
Speaker 2 (40:46):
Their profiling is what they they are. We're all being
definitely profiling. One more hour to go.
Speaker 4 (40:52):
How do I get you into this vehicle today?
Speaker 3 (40:54):
What do I need to do so you can get
this vehicle today?
Speaker 4 (40:56):
