Episode Transcript

(00:00):
Be honest. As a sports fan, tell me how many times you'
ve had discussions with your panas aboutwho' s the best Jorge Hn Versus
lebron Yankees, RSS, Red Ors, Laker, sous Oltics, cow Boys,
PRS Steelers, because I don't know about you being between Hispanics
and me. This is something everyday. That' s why we decided
to do this podcast. We believethat they share their opinions with us,

(00:22):
that they let us know who ishorribly wrong and who is less wrong.
We know that many of these debatesare never- ending discussions, not even
many of them can prove their veracity, but that, as they want you,
they have so get your cooler outof preference and make yourself comfortable,
as you just entered the dimension thatwe call sports or podcasts. Good evening,

(01:03):
good afternoon, depending on a momentof the day you are watching this
recording Charlie Sports aØst Podcast.Ending the Puerto Rico match and the National
Team of Italy, where Puerto Ricoscored an important victory. Eighty- sixty
- nine. Let' s breakthe twenty- year- old losing streak

(01:26):
against this selection, and not onlythat, but we secure and win Group
B of what this is, thisrepechaje of San Juan, and then now
we mobilize towards what is going tobe the semifinals, where we are then

(01:46):
crossing against Mexico and the two powers, both Italy and Lithuania, are going
to see their faces in the othersemifinal. Good news. Definitely that at
one point many people would write tome if there was a hope to win
this game. I think I've been consistent since day one saying good.
I have no doubt that we weregoing to win this game because of

(02:07):
many factors, but more than anything, you' re going to warn us
of that. We' re goingto go to that jarto thanks to all

make up any excuses. Tomorrow wecan sleep in the peace of the Lord

(03:38):
and enjoy this victory. Let's talk about the game, let'
s talk about some numbers. Let' s talk about the numbers that I
think is important. Obviously, wewill quickly go to Italy' s numbers
at the level of statistics. MarcusPisus scored nine points. Don' t
even eat 11 points. Boodu toBas scored eight points. Stephano Tanut Or

(04:01):
scored six points, Danilo Galinari fourteen, Nicholo Meili sevens, Jean Polo Richie
seven points and then had Killy poHonora three points, Lesandro Bajola two points
and John Petricle two points, fora total of sixty- nine points for

(04:23):
the Italian team for the National Selectionof Puerto Rico. Well, wow,
what can we say Isaia Piñero,Hueyazo eight five rebounds one assist. George
Condit, what can we say hGeorge Condi, Wow, George Conley fifteen
four rebounds. Jordan Hower. It' s not just an attendance. He

(04:45):
wasn' t. He pointed pointsat us. Devon ri Tress a rebound.
José Alvarado carried the offensive of thosewe go from the National Selection of
Puerto Rico with twenty- nine threerebounds, two assists. There also gave
three cuts of ball. Al Infortsaw no notes, although he took two
rebounds, Jean Claver seven three reboundsand Immae Romero five four rebounds. Christopher

(05:11):
Ortiz three eight rebounds. Arnaldo Toroscontributed five rebounds, zero Tremo Water ten
had twelve assists and a rebound fora total of eighty points for the Puerto
Rico team. A lot of things, a lot of things to discuss from
this party. I mentioned it yesterday, when we were analyzing Bareine' s

(05:32):
game. I said hand at theend of the day, there' s
not much channeling. Obviously, onecan actually include several analyses based on different
dog perspectives, so even on anoffensive strategic level. There was an incongruent

(05:55):
reference. That' s how staticPuerto Rico was yesterday with Baraine. It
was a trend of what this versionof this team is going to be or
whether it was a strategy of thetechnical team referring to not demonstrating so much
the game system in sight that,obviously Puerto Rico was talking comfortably with tobacco

(06:16):
Raing, then with Italy, Pa, Italy was excauting this game. Referring
to that particular question, I thinkwe saw a rather early answer in the
game and, unfortunately, for PuertoRico, Puerto Rico did play quite static,
or apparently, what was seen againstBahrain is quite similar to what we
saw in this game, obviously againsta much higher opponent, but rich port,

(06:44):
at an offensive level. On manyoccasions it was a one- on
- one game, led by TremonWarters and José Alvarado. And so,
unfortunately, because that is something thatfor good or to love, I have
already raised yesterday. If that's going to be our offensive motto,
if that' s going to beour offensive identity with this version, this

(07:08):
selection and the version of what itis, obviously, José Alvarado and Tremo
Guero playing at the same time inmuch of the game. Well, I
think that, because Tremon and JoséAlvarado players have to be dominant, he
mentions it and they have to bedominant to make sense of the formula.
Tremont and José were offensively dominant,combining for thirty- nine points in the

(07:31):
1990s of Puerto Rico. That's, that' s, that'
s almost forty percent of the teampoints. So, then, it must
at least be true to say thatformula then at the offensive level. Obviously,
it bore fruit. I think thefact of and mentioned it yesterday,
I mentioned it before starting the tournamentand I' m going to hold it

(07:56):
today, and it' s thefact that I keep insisting that to start
the party, to start the game. I keep insisting that Puerto Rico should
not start with the two shipowners.Nelson Colon did it today. Get the
Varado out of the opening box,bring Jan Claver and Alvarado from the bank.

(08:20):
That is, what Alvarado did todaycoming from the bank, bringing the
offensive, bringing that energy, isliterally what he does. Nb A.
Therefore, we should not be surprisedthat you have the ability to come with
that frigher power from the bank,because that is what your escape is.
But I think that you bring ayankey to the initial picture. It could

(08:45):
have been Jang Claver, it couldhave been Steven Thonson, it could have
been Damon Red, regardless of whoit was. I think it gives a
dynamic to the team in that initialpicture, which did not look good in
either of the two moments they wereplaying, neither starting in the first quadr
the last egg, nor starting thethird painting against Bareine, which was something

(09:07):
worrying. I mentioned hey. Ifat the end of the day José Alvarado
and Tremo Warrens are hot and youhave to close with them at the end
of the day, then truth,perfect glory of God, because that means
the ball is getting in. Butif at the end of the day the
ball is not messing with one ofthem two, then you have to make
the decision. It' s hardto leave one of us sitting on the

(09:28):
bench and leaving with a hot hand, whoever it is. Many people before
the party criticized the colon saying ahshook his pulse. Well, I don
' t have a pulse because inthe most important game up to the moment
of the mv sentual tournament I workedthe veteran and it wasn' t like
the veteran had a super egg injang claver, but you did see as

(09:52):
that a better offensive move. Andat the end of the day, you
had Alvarado coming from the bank.Even José Alvarado was had that true chip
to prove that less I faint tobe starting. Obviously, that can be
a problem and I think it's a problem because José Alvarado is not
taking his role of coming from theBank. Right, well, I think

(10:13):
José Alvarado was upset about Nelson Columbus' decision and I want to bring him
to you. I want to bringhim to your collation. At the end
of the day, you think thatafter you saw the performance that José Alvarado
had, that he had tremo.You think Nelson must insist with the initial
picture of the two shipowners or hemust repeat the dose with Talia against Mexico,

(10:37):
against Mexico, true in the semifinal. Now if now, then,
then you must bring Jan Clavel comingfrom the initial picture and then he'
s going to Jose Alvarado of theBank. I want to see the truth
that you think about it. Obviously, because I have my perspective, I
want to see them from you.I don' t want to get too

(10:58):
drunk talking about the game, becauseI want to go to the comments for
then feed on what you' resaying and then start the dynamics of what
this is, what this recording isgoing to do. I want to get
ahead of people who are connected viaYouTube, either via Facebook, whether you
' re listening to us later throughApple, podcast or Spotify, or if

(11:22):
you' re not seeing us liveright now, he obviously, because Puerto
Rico ranks the semi- final tomorrow, Friday five, July five, there

Then take action on Saturday, July6, right, with the two semifinal

(11:43):

Italy and Lithuania. And then,later, then we' re going to
have Huerto Rico' s clashes withMexico. We force podcasts, we'
ll be there. We' regoing to be in Davan Bostern, in

(12:03):

had the opportunity of ilos, ifyou have not had the opportunity to go,
then we have a reserved area wherewe all sit in group. There

' re going to be sharing and, obviously, because we' re going

(13:11):
to have the, they' regoing to have the opportunity to order food
drink and, obviously, if theycome with their minor family members and everyone,
because there are machines and that truth, they can also, because they
have fun in the course of thenight, so Saturday July six, show
them podcast, invite them to alive workch party. There at davan ysten
de plaza de ester. So,later on, we' re going to

(13:33):
get more details based on that onour social networks. So let' s
talk about the game. Obviously we' re talking about the game. Let
us quickly mention what you think aboutit. Abneris Ojeda China writes doubt because
Thompson did not play. You shouldn' t be surprised that you haven'

(13:56):
t played, even though you playedthe last game very well. Thomson continues
then was the last player to comefrom the bank in the match against Barain,
which means that he is not reallyin Nelson' s rotation. And
Nelson has ten players. Today heused eleven because he used Inford at some
point. It was a very shortperiod. I' m going to say

(14:16):
numbers exactly what Inford played. Itwasn' t much. Al Infort played
today a total of four or fiveminutes, four hundred and fifty, five
minutes is a game, it wasn' t much. What Nelson' s
telling you is that Nelson is goingto have ten players in his rotation.
So the two alternates are going tobe the Infort and Steven Tonson. That
' s how the last game works. What happens is that given to the

(14:41):
Gravity, we were actually tipping Pedad, who was tipping Baren, because the
game went extremely open, because thenthe Nelson cut off egg time to alvarado
tremo to the regulars and then dividedit. And then he' s given
that Steven was then hot, becauseI played them. But if you get

(15:01):
carried away by what literally happened inpast jueves, then the last player to
come on the field was Steve.So which means it' s not inside
the regular rotation of the team.And so, obviously that didn' t
take me by surprise, because alreadyin this game, a more closed game,
you have to reduce a bit tothe rotation. I think it was

(15:22):
to be expected and I wasn't taken by surprise. Even yesterday I
mentioned when I asked you at somepoint in the recording what your initial picture
would be. A lot of peoplementioned Steven Thompson to me in the opening
picture. I was saying wow soI can buy them I said I can
buy them, but considering that Nelsonhad brought him in the last as the

(15:46):
last player, literally, going onthe court, because what can I tell
you, I' m still readinghis comments. Thanks to everyone and everyone
who is connected via Facebook, YouTubeor, if you are listening to us
later, via Apple, Podcasts,Spotify. Welcome and thank you for connecting.
Remember le like shares this content thatEmilier Nieves writes to me on Facebook.

(16:07):
Great piñero defense. Piñero and hewas everywhere, everywhere, even one
of the boys wrote us in oneof the chacks that he was apologizing to
piñero because he was saying at onepoint that he didn' t understand why
piñero was in the team' sinitial picture and then he was. The
partner was on the court today andhe said I want to apologize to see

(16:29):
such with Isaiah Piñeiro, because atthe end of the day, well he
played spectacular, that is, hewas everywhere. Man man defense, collective
defense, defense in aid. Theseare things that don' t necessarily come
out in the stadline, they don' t come out in the box cure.
But Isaah Piñero, today was oneof the keys of the game,

(16:53):
looking beyond the points scored by JoséAlvarado and the rest of George Condit three
in company and Lía Piñero you ascapegoat. It had a run today and
you will not necessarily see the numbersat the collective level. So we continued

(17:14):
to read that comment. Osvaldo delValle writes Nelson voting for the bad streak.
Hand. Yes, we really brokethe rickety against Italy today had been
painful. And I want to stophere for a moment. I want to
stop here for a moment talking aboutthe streak because I mentioned especially when we

(17:37):
did the reaction, when the PuertoRican national team officially announced its twelve players,
even though at that time we weresaying hand. I was upset about
the way the team was summoned.There was no preselection as such. They
were both named and for some,pa it' s late and you can
get the true content was available bothon Apple, Podcast, Spotify, YouTube
and Facebook. At that moment,when we were, we' re reacting.

(18:00):
I did say this version is muchbetter than the version of the World
Cup, because there are more points. There' s more stitches. I
think that for the most part,when and several people asked me the question
and wrote me a lot about theimbox asking about product is so sure that
Puerto Rico was going to win tonightand I' ve been saying it a
month ago and I was saying hand, because we have points in much of

(18:26):
the main reason why this team beatus in the last two clashes against them
was because at some point we couldn' t get the ball in. We
couldn' t put the ball inthem. And then, regardless of whether
you do everything else, well,if you can' t put the ball
in, because they' re gonnabeat you, they' re gonna fit
you. And I believe that PuertoRico, on two occasions, in the

(18:48):
last two eggs with your Italy,Puerto Rico took advantages, substantial advantages and,
unfortunately, there were offensive droughts whereno one, within Puerto Rico'
s workforce, could break the offensivedrought and get us out of the quagmire.
And within this selection, I wassaying by hand, we have players

(19:08):
who can put the ball in becauseJean Claver was supposed to have been our
initial shuringar in that World Cup wasn' t there. We had a chance
to bring Demon Reed and the truthwas I was saying. Beloved, we
have points there, we have pointsthat I think are going to be very
favorable in the selection at the endof the day. José Alvarado, who
did not play for the World Cupteam today, is charging us offensively.

(19:34):
And we have to mention the tripleJean Claver puts in. At a time
when shocklub is running out, webring age. That' s called a
grenade. It gives him a realgradation of basketball, the end of basketball,
when the shock is running out andyou spend the wedding missing one two
seconds, you have to throw theball. That' s a grenade is
the term used in basketball and hepasses that grenade, to Ian Clavel and
and Claver Mete. That triple isextremely important. We' re going back

(19:57):
the same way. Juan cab JoséAlvarado, two players who were not in
the World Cup present today, onein the initial picture, another coming from
the Bank Come and put timely pointsin opportune moments where it is sometimes in
the past against the selection of Italy, we did not have them and there

(20:18):
I think it was the part forwhich I felt extremely confident that we were
going to win this game, inaddition to local court factor. But at
the end of the day, orsaid hand, if we can keep the
composure that sometimes it' s harderto say what needs to be done,
I think we' re going towin the game I mentioned. I mentioned
it because I said we have thepoints. Yeah. We should not fall

(20:42):
into offensive droughts as severe as wehave fallen in the past, as we
fell into the World Cup, wherein the World Cup sometimes if it wasn
' t Tremo, if it wasn' t George condit O, if it
wasn' t Sven Thompson himself,we didn' t have the necessary points
to counter the effectiveness of the otherteams. And that' s why they
fall at some point in the WorldCup. And well, I think today

(21:04):
we saw the result of having thoseplayers who weren' t in the World
Cup on this team and all ofa sudden, they pull their faces through
rich port at the right time.So, really wow wow. Wow.
I' m still reading your comments. Thanks to all the people who are
connected via Facebook and YouTube. Livegive him the like. Share this content
tell us if you agree to disagreewith the comment you thought about today'

(21:27):
s match. I' m readingit Israel. Then he left. They
write to me on Facebook that Clavermeta the Conners in Quebradillas are on to
win vegazo game. I' mdefinitely still out there reading in your comments.

(21:48):
Nelson came out writing market. Greetings. Nelson needs to be voted on.
What can I say. Jason Mendowrites on YouTube Puerto Rico. There
are definitely people who very well thate Melie the Snow writes on Facebook.
Toro defended very well. Toro defendedwell. I think everything can defend a

(22:11):
little better. Sometimes our big men, both George Condit, Chris Orti,
Image Romero and Analdo Toro himself,have to stop jumping on the perimeter.
They have to jump from arcade onthe perimeter. I run minor categories and
what I repeat to my baby isconstantly please don' t jump on the

(22:33):
perimeter. I mean you on theperimeter, you do the contest you get
up your hand and if the guyfrom you the ball over at the end
of the day and you get inthere it' s a good offensive.
But you' re jumping like amadman on the perimeter. They put you
in compromising positions. Where you're missing. And that' s why
today George had problems of lack,imma of rosemary, problems of lack.

(22:56):
So, in a moment, Crisyou over match. Then he himself not
the lotor. Sometimes it' sthe aggressiveness of trying to contain the shot.
He was out of positions and theywere attacking us and they were like
no hand. If the guy throwsyou over but you look in front of
him and he shoves it in isa good offensive. Bad defense is when

(23:18):
you hit him and the guy goesunderneath you. Then someone else has to
rotate. So either it' sa failure of the player who comes rotating
or they move the ball, pass, pass, comfortable shot many times three
points or an onions and then whatwe' re doing, which you prefer
a comfortable shot of high percentage orthat you have your hand up in front

(23:38):
of you or mara. That guythrows you over the gun and shoves it
in but it was perfect or youwere played even you go pap and tell
the player good chaste, horsey,but to be jumping on the perimeter,
especially our big men in games wherelike today, where we don' t
have, we' re not deepat height level, we' re not.

(23:59):
You have to give a lot ofcredit Arnaldo Toro and Chris Horty that
at the time when George Scondi givesthe fourth lack of ismothe rosemary also left
the party due to problems of faultand and Nelson is forced to after the
Cris artigia Arnaldo Toro to start thatfourth quare played well, they were very
good. And the truth is,well, excellent game. True, there

(24:22):
are defensive observations of our great man. Not everything was beautiful. Not everything
was beautiful. I think we madeunnecessary mistakes at times. That' s
very aggressive at the defensive level.Sometimes he punished us and put us in
bad defensive positions and we all hitfrom that, not just our big men,
our little men also hit from that. Sometimes the despair of trying to

(24:45):
make a move before they throw youover, because the player they' re
defending higher than you. That's sometimes unnecessary. Hand is sometimes better
than the type of pull over.And that kind of throw- over got
her, well, the good one, but nothing. We' re still
out there. We' re stillout there. Wanda sand you see they
write on Facebook. Greetings. Iwas very surprised by the quality of the
egg. Good to me. Itdidn' t surprise me, honestly,

(25:07):
it didn' t surprise me.Thank God. I am recorded here constantly
talking about this selection, saying wehave a good version of the selection.
Obviously, because there are always goingto be names that you' re going
to mention truth and say ah ifyou' d been full, manganite,
what would have happened. But yes, I always knew that this version of
Puerto Rico was a better version ofwhat we saw in the World Cup and

(25:30):
so far we have seen it.So I wasn' t surprised. I
was not surprised at all, northe victory, nor how we looked,
nor how the game was given.I think we could do what we had
to do and we won, whichwas the important thing. Obviously, I
' m still reading your comments.Luis Mercado writes Charlie what happened with time.

(25:51):
Nelson fell asleep. I don't know what I was talking about,
what time are we talking about?I' m still out there reading
your comments? Finish that for me, Luis Mercado, what time are we
talking about Nelson? I' mstill around? I' m still out
there reading your comments? Mke DaliaPérez Mercedes wrote on Facebook. What an

(26:12):
egg, gentlemen, what an egg. I' m sick, I'
m sick. Yeah, that's me, actually at the end of
the game we could get an advantage. We didn' t have a game
of one possession or two possessions there, because there he would have given us
until he took all the Puerto Ricans, boys, all the way. But

(26:33):
I still read those comments around.Thanks to everyone who is sending messages via
Facebook or YouTube. I' mstill out there. Efraín González writes Charlie
and the pupil of my town ofHormiguero came to look good in the defense
with the absence of a fovo conditin the third part and the first part
of the partial quarter until three minutes. If that one in the award played

(26:57):
very well in analdo. If youhave to give him credit in the sense
that at one point, when Covileft the game where he was high,
he was in high and the truthwas that the fourth fault he gives was
a lack of fatigue. He wasasking to be taken out of the game.
Nelson was going to take him outof the game, he was going
to play Romero' s isma andthen, unfortunately, just in the last

(27:22):
defensive position he had, because hehad nothing and threw his hand and unfortunately
he missed it. I mean,God, it didn' t cost us
the game to watch the absence,but it came from a streak where not
only offensively defensively took the rebounds atthat moment where we needed someone to pull
out their face hand. George Condisaid mountains here boy i Gatchi, and

(27:45):
that must be respected. I'm still reading your comments. Rui at
what point you had to ask forthe time to calm the egg, that
is, really the game, atthe moments where eggs went in little crazy,

(28:07):
times were asked, that is,how many times. You think Nelson
has, because people sometimes think thatleaders have twenty- five times, that
they can ask for time whenever onewants truth, that is, sometimes half
vague analysis. Ask for time,ask that that' s what we see
in the analysis and ask for time? Ask for time? Ask for time?
How long? Time you think theleaders have? I ask you the

(28:30):
question, how many times do theleaders have to see if they know,
that is, they can' tbe asking for time every time a player
makes a mistake. I mean,you as a leader, you have to
trust that the player will respond tothe institutions and execute the intuitions. But
in moments when we looked well crazy, the times came, the times,
they were asked, they were reorganized, Hugo substitutions. Ah you' re

(28:53):
on fire, jump the egg togo to another. I mean, if
we' re in these to bitNelson Columbus for what he directed today.
You' re fucked. Let me, you' re just fucked up and
I really don' t know whatelse we can say to you, that
is, because Nelson has a runawayjewel today and if you don' t

(29:15):
believe it, then I' mgoing to repeat it. Lo, I
' m going to look at theHouse and I' m going to tell
you you' re fucked. There' s nothing more to say with that
I' m really still out there. Héctor Rafael Sánchez writes the formula of
bringing Alvarado from the Bank. Itworked. They couldn' t contain that.
You must repeattoy all right. Withyou Regardless of José Alvarado' s
twenty- nine points today, Iwouldn' t start it. I'

(29:37):
d bring him back from the bankfor the reason Manue' s a specialist.
He is that guy who can bringus to the power of the Bank
and Hand whatever God wants, thatis, if at the end of the
day he is hot, as hewas today and we must be reunited and
Alvarado, for he will see,for we do, but I keep insisting

(30:00):
that we should not start the gamewith them two. There are people who
disagree with that point. A lotof people are explaining to me. It
' s not that José Alvarado isour best player. That' s debatable.
That' s debatable, but Irespect it. I respect that.
Right. If you say you're our best player, I respect you.

(30:22):
But we' re not going intodebate about who' s best and
who' s medionor. But we' re on our way. Hey,
thanks to Denis Mari, who's out there connected on Facebook. I
was very attentive to Sportraules Podcast WatchParty in Davin Bostel and we' ll

(31:11):
whom you go to in the supernational prao. That' s where we
' re going to spread with onecolor and this is Puerto Rico. There
' s nothing else, so hehears the invitees. It' s a
great time and it' s afamily atmosphere. So really, regardless of
your affiliation with the BSN, let' s pause that and focus on the

(31:32):
many vibes of the courtyard and definitelyinvite them. You have to ask me
if I' m going to pay, I' m not going to pay.
Pay. Your ticket and Devin Bo' s work team does a good
job at the end of the day, pass the bill and let you know
how much you owe. But she' s having a great time. He

(31:52):
' s having a great time.Trene Negro writes on Facebook Charlie. What
happens is that if they play bothand get out and if it goes well,
he criticizes it, but if itgoes wrong, then the reviews will
come. I think the key wasplayed. Besides Alvarado, he was bringing
Condiy early with four fouls. Ididn' t give up, I'

(32:14):
m talking, I' m tellingyou. At least I reneged you'
re writing to me I' vebeen consistent. You didn' t start
a Saved One and Tremon Ward Isaid it when the twelve were announced.
I said it before starting the tournament, when we did the PRIVIW they started

(32:35):
counting Baren We gave him a peelto forty- three barent and I said
they shouldn' t start, regardlessof how they looked at the team and
against that team. And it didn' t start today, because it'
s the fourth time I' mgonna say it. He played brutal Jose
Alvarado twenty- nine points very wellfor him. I' m going to
look you in the Chamber and I' m going to say it again.

(32:57):
José Alvarado must not begin in thenational selection of Puerto Rico. You shouldn
' t start Puerto Rico national team. He must come from the bank and
if at the end of the dayit is hot, as it was today,
we leave him playing until the end. But it must not come from
the bank. It must not comefrom the bank for many reasons. And
if we want to talk about xzero and you want to talk about numbers

(33:19):
and I want to talk about basketball, we can talk about it the same
way, because I have the datathat can sustain me. I' m
still reading your comments. Thanks toall those who are active in chat via
Facebook or YouTube. Rafael Rivera writesto me on Facebook Nelson should start with
the same picture in front of Mexico. That' s my opinion. I
agree. With you all the way, Rafael. Thank you for your comment.

(33:42):
I' m still out there.WillyÁlvarez writes José Grant TeV Alvarado
the best churingar of Puerto Rico's selection, demonstrating why he is mv
orÁlvaro de Churinga. I don' t know. I don' t
know this one played well. Idon' t want to fuck with Jose
Alvarado, because JoséÁlvaro played well. I don' t want to sound
like I' m a hater.I don' t want to be like

(34:05):
a hater. But yeah, yeah, we' re active. I'
m still looking around for your comments. Guillermo González writes only I mean Charlie
Nelson, showing that he is elitelistening and rotating so that not for those
who don' t want them inBayamón still in the sun Hey. There
are comments out there, William,that apparently there are people who aren'
t happy with Mr Nelson' scoaching job. We' re screwed,

(34:29):
I mean, unfortunately. Hey,I' ve had this one. I
' ve been in this asshole forfour years and I' ve been sitting
with people across the platform. I' ve been sitting with people through Embox.
I' ve had the opportunity totalk to different people around Puerto Rico,
on different courts for us super national. I' ll introduce you to

(34:50):
the data. The data can't be refuted, because this is true.
That happened and still, people tellyou it' s not true.
It' s been my experience inthe four years and well, it doesn
' t matter the results or thevictories. There are people who simply judge

(35:15):
other people because they don' tlike you and sometimes you have to remove
the gringolas from your personal analysis,because you can' t stand a person.
You can' t, but atthe end of the day, you
have to look. If you aregoing to look at the person with critical
eyes and you are going to criticizea person at least be fair about not

(35:37):
stealing the favorable results from them andonly see the negatives, because that is
well unfair as people. Unfortunately,we definitely do a lot in our personal
life on social media. Everywhere,then the problem social networks are exceptional.
But unfortunately many people on social medialend themselves to everyone giving an opinion and

(36:00):
it is opinion, and that mustbe respected. But not all opinions are
fine. That opinion and you haveto respect it, but not necessarily for
you it is opinion that is fine, because many times your opinion comes within
your perspective and often your perspective isnot informed. You do not give yourself
the task of searching for information.You just give your perspective and sometimes you

(36:23):
' re not right with perspective,you' re not right, but you
respect it. They' re respected. There' s no problem with that
I' m still out there inyour comments. Luis Gun writes on Facebook.
Greetings, Charlie. Who believes itwas more valuable today between these two,
Nelson or the collective. The collective. I think the collective, because,

(36:45):
even though Nelson obviously puts the piecesand mobilizes truth and plays chess,
at the end of the day,hand the leader can get to a point,
he can be the best leader inthe world, but if your players
don' t execute, you're going to look silly, not to

(37:07):
say other words, that is,don' t use it well. And
at the end of the day,I think the collective. The fact that
George Conndi has played as he hasplayed, that José Alvarado has played as
he has played, that Tres Mongordihas played as he has played, that
at the moment when Georgecondi is missingeverything that comes to Arnaldo Greek Arti and
that they can endure the Italian offensive. That' s a collective that'

(37:30):
s already piñero, even though offensivelyit wasn' t like he looked huge,
scored eight points, did a lotof things in the collective to help
Puerto Rico wins. I think PuertoRico won not by one for an individual,
be it Nelson, be it JossaAlvarado or whatever you want to mention.

(37:51):
It was a collective everyone did theirjob and at the end of the
day, so the result was seen. And that' s why I said
hand and I got in and trustedin this game because of that, because
I trusted that we had a bettercollective than the versions we had before.
And that' s why I thinkthat' s true. I' m
still reading your comments. Thanks toall the people who are out there connected.

(38:15):
Ramón Casa writes to me on FacebookWaters and Alvarado together in a cheerful
and fast game. Sometimes, notat other times. Sometimes they do not
look super comfortable playing Waters and alvaradoschildren. Sometimes one stops to look at
the other when he has the ball, especially when Tremo doesn' t have

(38:38):
the ball in his hands. Tresmois not so effective without the ball in
his hands, at least in whatwas seen today, perhaps, in other
games, in other versions of Tremon, because maybe yes, true. I
know why Tremon, for example,in the final against Bayamón, when Mike
Scott had the chance to have theball and pull. We have a jgoogle

(39:00):
and well without labor on many occasions, but today, when he came out
of the ball and especially when hecame out of the ball where I used
alvarado many times Tremon did not repositionhimself. I was almost half a court
standing there admiring him, and that' s sometimes just the effectiveness of Bayamón
Yachu' s most radio- partoffensive in Puerto Rico, because at the

(39:23):
end of the day, well,we have one that' s looking at
the other and that part, butit wasn' t always, it wasn
' t always, but sometimes Ido keep reading his comments or thanks to
all the people out there who areconnected. Efraín González writes on YouTube Charlie.
The only thing I didn' tlike was that coughing wasn' t
involved. Tomso I understand your comment, but it must be on rotation.

(39:47):
This is Efrain' s question thatI' m always going to ask anyone,
anyone who' s going to mentionme, who' s going to
have played perfect ok who I wouldhave sat down to, who I would
have asked, that is, whoin the picture is the picture we have
Tremon Watter, we have Usé Alvarado, we have started with Jean Claver Piñeron.

(40:07):
He started in the three demon Ridcame from the bank and did very
well. Inside that picture. Whatdo you get out and who you'
re gonna sacrifice the minutes to giveit to Steve? So it' s
always the question, that is,when you tell me this funanito should have
played more perfect minutes, who youwould have sacrificed the minutes to attract Steven

(40:31):
tomsu I read them. I don' t have any problem with you guys
telling me you' re going tobe played. I can understand that and
I have a name that I canmention, but I want to see what
Efraín González tells me on YouTube,efra is waiting for your comment. I
' m still reading your comments.Thanks to all the people who are active

(40:52):
on chat, Facebook, YouTube.Thank you very much. Men Edgar Martinez
writes on YouTube or Ortist and everyone, coming from the bank, did very
well. They did very well.Sometimes there are still some things that need
to be improved defensively. But ifit should be mentioned that at the time
when he was forced to bring Toroand Ortiga together playing in that last partial

(41:12):
of Hood of Fort, and thatis very important, well well important.
I' m still reading your comments. Or we' re here Joaquin Labor
writes to him. Greetings, Charlie. We cannot forget the superb defensive action
of piñero against Canthony Tados in theworld past, despite his disadvantage in his

(41:37):
stature, stopped him dry. Well, Cantatas, he had a good egg,
that said, but he did anexcellent defensive execution. He did it
again today against Danielo Galina. Notime where ga tanino ganin Naris was watching
comfortable offensively against our big men andwas putting us in trouble of fault.
Maybe we did mention it. Ithink the fellow seaman at one point mentioned

(42:00):
it. I held it when wedid, when they announced the first twelve
and when we did the preview wewere well consistent that there was no doubt
that Isaiah Piñero was going to bein the opening picture largely because of what
they saw today we mentioned it.At that point we saw his five.

(42:22):
Many people had a and I knewpiñeros outside of their initial picture, because
many times the argument of many peopleis that it doesn' t give me
ball, right, but he doesmany things that you don' t necessarily
see in putting the ball in.And I heard wou and they' re
already cocking. Wow. Wow.I mean wow. I know a lot

(42:44):
of pirates were saying why he doesn' t play here and I don'
t know what. Yeah, Iknow it is, but wow it'
s brutal game, brutal juice.I' m still out there reading your
comments thanks to everyone who' sout there connected, a lot of people
writing tremendous game. I' mstill out there reading thanks to everyone who

(43:06):
' s active. Ully writes onYouTube. Saturday' s games are most
important hear from day back, day, day, next day, is our
most important game, no doubt.I mean, and something I want and
thank you for the comment, somethingI want, yes to mention that you
hear it a lot today through thetransmission that is beautiful sports. Much importance,

(43:31):
truth, is important, much touse the word of importance of this
game, the importance of this game. Today' s game was important,
but well, I, at least, see it from this narrative. Puerto
Rico already had the process already andhad poncho his ticket. Obviously, you

(43:54):
want to win this game so youdon' t cross the semifinal against Lithuania,
because it' s a wounded truthand it makes your way to tuning
and to the possible ranking to themuch more difficult Olympiad, there' s
no doubt about that. But today' s game was important at the class
level of how you' re goingto come across. But Puerto Rico had

(44:15):
already classified, so you can't put all your eggs in this basket
that you have to win and thatwins. You have to win, because
if you fail, then what isthe narrative, that is, I think
it was an important egg. Ithink I really can' t tell you
what was said behind the scenes,what was the message that led to his

(44:37):
players, that Carlos Arroyo took hisplayers, etcetera. But it was an
important egg. Yeah,' causeit was our next game. But egg.
Another egg that passes is going tobe our most important game. Obviously,
the most important game is Mexico's now in the semifinal, because
at the end of the day thispoint onwards is simple elimination. They'

(44:57):
re no matter what happened on thesetwo eggs, we won so much against
baren against Italy. If Puerto Ricocomes now in the next game and makes
a flop and loses then nothing servedtoday' s victory, that is,
we have to go on. Obviouslythey' re budin blogs, tell them

(45:19):
the Americanbuldin blogs and let' ssee what happens. But yes, definitely,
from this point forward, all eggsare important. There' s no
role image. You can' tlose eggs. We have to win four
eggs. We' ve already wontwo. We could stay three and still
really qualify for the Olympics. Butwe always said four, because we wanted
to win all four eggs and comeon we already got two. Now the

(45:43):
most important opponent in Mexico, whichis next and thank God, tomorrow is
not played. We can rest andthen analyze the Mexican Eggs and then focus
on that opponent who must respect it, because they have veteran players and they
have played us well in the past. I' m still looking around for
your comments. A little water aroundhere. Before following this, Javier Andino

(46:08):
writes something I prefer you to playto see how perfect he does. I
bust your ass on the basketball courtany day of the week and I don
' t know you, but wecan play one against one, I'
m sure one against one. JavierAntin on Facebook. We can play whenever
you want. And you' remissing whenever you want, whenever you want.
I' m not going to twoPuerto Rico National Teams, but I

(46:29):
' m sure I' ll cutyou off. I' m still reading
your comments. Luis Berrio Fati iswritten honorific mention for Arnaldo Toro and he
will find Piñero and Chris Ortiz andif you don' t believe it,
ask Galinari. They definitely played verywell Velavia and I hope Danino Garinari is

(46:49):
fine. He left the game withapparently an injury. He was spilling a
knee hand. I don' twant to think that man had a major
knee injury. The tying already severalinjuries from ACL and was a veteran player
that an injury from a more dacl injury would basically be the end of
his career. Well, God,please don' t. He' s
had a lot of injuries in thepast Soul good, really good and I

(47:15):
hope not. I hope I'm not still reading your comments. Thanks
to all the people who are outthere connected and Diego Lampaya writes the local
factor is something too differential. Imean it. I mean, I'
m trying to be objective, butI feel like right now, rich port

(47:36):
is a favorite to get in.It was something we were analyzing in a
moment. Diego and thank you foryour comment. The purpose of obviously,
to do the BEATL to have thistournament here was precisely that truth, to
give us a better chance, because, unfortunately, in the reputed pasts let
' s say it had to goto servia and it happened difficult, because

(48:00):
it' s playing against the hostand host playing with them here is going
to be difficult. In the caseof Servia having to play against them at
home was going to be extremely difficultin large part. Credit must be given
to the Puerto Rico Basketball Federation inthat sense, because in large part their
approach was to bring that advantage ofexpensive field factor here. And so today

(48:22):
the chorroley made it feel like thefanatic. It made itself feel true.
Obviously, we' re used toplaying selection eggs at Roberto Clemente, we
play at Choling, we' restill kind of warming up engines with that
part, but it made us feelfanatical. Today. I wasn' t
there, I wasn' t there, but it felt on TV. I
didn' t want to imagine onthe court how it felt. So I

(48:44):
' m still out there reading yourcomments thanks to the people who are out
there active and connected. I'm still out there joaquín the bun writes
Charlie. It' s gone.The result of Piculin' s work with
George Condiy is being seen in theoffensive aspect. I think we can give

(49:07):
Piculing a little credit. The truthis that George Scondis has been improving offensively
since a little earlier. Right.I think George Condi had an offensive breakthrough
in this Jilly season. I thinkif they go to YouTube and watch their
stats and watch their YouTube games fromhim, playing with the Portland Traroblazers'

(49:28):
Gilling team, youugecondi had good offensivegames. He had good offensive games and
I' ve been working on hisgame today he put a basket. I
don' t know if you rememberwhere I was. He took the ball
almost in the right wing, Trivedto his left side with his left hand.
He ended up with his left handbeing right and was a fa vivale.

(49:50):
It' s a basket. It' s a basket and that'
s true. Obviously, they arethings he has to keep developing for the
hair, because and he has said, he wants to get to the NV
that are the baskets he has toput in at that moment to be able
to play a little astr treble,as the Americans say, and I think
good. Yeah, we can reallycredit Piculín because he' s worked with

(50:15):
him. But Georgecondi has also workedwith his game and truth, with his
team of work and the opportunities hehas had at the Jilly, but this
year at the Gilly he was givena lot of offensive responsibility, more than
he had in the past, morethan Carolina has, and he did not
let it fall. He played well, that is, he played well,
and many times people had expectations,during the course of the NV season that

(50:35):
he would be brought up there tothe NV and taking into account, especially
when there were injuries in Portland,but he was not given the opportunity.
Let' s see what happens inthe past, now in the future.
Sorry. I' m still outthere with your comments. Guillermo González writes
Nelson showing that elite for those whodo not want him in Byamon and for
those who say he has not broken. Yeah, definitely, definitely by River

(51:00):
writes on Facebook. The best churingalwill be Marcus Hower, when it comes
to playing with the national team.In my opinion, the situation with Marques
Verla and I don' t wantto talk much about amorcus because it'
s not here. I want totalk about those in the yard today.
But well, Marques Sower is abowl- to- professional goal, it
' s a Wol- to-Pro goal. I believe that this version
of Puerto Rico does not have amonth of ball like the Marcres Souwerre,

(51:22):
in my opinion and it will bevery curious, because, obviously, my
observation, when we analyze the subjectat the level of who starts and who
does not, at the level ofbasketball, I like to start with tremon
and with alvarado by the height.Obviously, because defensively they have a disadvantage

(51:46):
for us. We go out inthe egg at a disadvantage and if we
don' t create disadvantages offensively throughthat macheo be with speed, shot outside,
etcetera. Well, we' rea little complicated on that stage.
But in Marcus' case, it' s going to be interesting when he
integrates at the time he' sthree with the selection, whenever he is,

(52:06):
because he' s pretty short.It' s five ten on his
best day and he' s achuringan. It' s going to be
very interesting to see Bella, Alvaradoand Hower, right, to see how
Nelson' s going from then on, right, because he' s pretty
small, bad that it' swater and he puts ball in, but

(52:29):
he' s pretty small. Let' s see what I can do.
I' m still reading your comments. It' s okay, I'
ll read Luigo Calver Rio writes goodnight. I hope Yadier signs Nelson Columbus
with a multi- year for fiveyears to fuck up the airs of cowboy

(52:49):
speculation there is. I think Nelsoncan defend himself over. I think Nelson
is clear, true and good.You' ve done well. You'
ve done well. I' mstill reading your comment. Disgraceful to all
the people who are out there connectedby fraingo. Go is written to tell
me the rotation. You must reacheleven players and you must remove minutes to

(53:12):
Devon Riad and Jan Claver to giveminutes to Steven Thonson Mano. I don
' t agree with you, Ephraim, really, and I can respect your
point of view at the right time, when you see it. These are
play- off games. This isa regular season game. This isn'
t a game we' re comingfrom. We have a tournament of thirty

(53:35):
- four, games of thirty-two eggs. We' re not playing
this. This is a game wheretoday wasn' t a elimination game,
but Saturday' s game is aelimination game. And if Puerto Rico ranks
the final, it' s aTP game obviously a championship or final game.
Whatever. You don' t playelimination games with monce or twelve players
in rotation or not. That's not how it works for us.

(53:59):
Why it doesn' t work thatway. If you have to extend your
rotation to eleven or twelve players,it' s because you' re in
trouble or defensive or you' relooking for offensive alternatives or you got into
missing problems a lot of players.Because the problem is that if you keep
rubbing and pulling out Fulanito and Menganitoand cut Mengano' s minutes to get

(54:20):
them into azutan and you have arotation of or twelve players. The detail
is that in no one falls intoan offensive rhythm. You can' t
be pulling out and playing players,because this in the lego, this is
basketball and at the end of theday, you need some court time to
be able to warm up and fallinto a rhythm. It' s egg
a gameflow and you, that is, when the game is by the 40th

(54:45):
beak against barent you can play everyoneand give everyone all the fluency. But
when you' re playing a gameas important as today' s and those
that come that are more important,you can' t play with eleven or
twelve players, unless obviously you throwthe need presents itself. And if the
need arises, we' re misplaced. True hand I can understand and respect

(55:07):
it. Right, I respect youropinion. I' m not here talking
about you being more or anything likethat, but the more I' m
going to keep players' time tofall into time and egg, that is,
you, you can' t pretendthat I see him at ten minutes,
minutes to ten minutes, ten minutesto him, because they don'
t fall into rhythm. Then he' s inquitting, putting, removing.

(55:28):
We also lack fluidity in the collective. Not Sou. No. I don
' t agree that I play elevenor twelve players in rotation. I honestly
don' t agree with that,but if you mentioned it, you respected
it a lot. Lisa Perez writeson Facebook, apart from the crossover issue,
confidence after today' s game isvital for Saturday' s game would

(55:50):
not have been the same if shehad lost that. Yes, you'
re quite right, Lisa, completelyagree with you on the importance of winning
this game, even though, obviously, if I mentioned, it was a
elimination game and an already Puerto Ricanteam had ranked the semifinal, etcetera.
If you come one day a high, now sometimes emotions tend to go down,

(56:10):
or here the important thing is theone. This becomes a run of
four hundred meters, of four hundredmeters, four hundred methods. People who
are not familiar with harpistica, becauseto the track as such at the end

(56:31):
of the day, if you areon a track and you have to turn
around completely running, because sometimes youhave to keep a little bit in the
tank and I think emotionally. True, we can' t go on this
pic and squeeze very high, becauseeventually, if we get to the top,
then from the top or what comesdown. That' s very important,

(56:52):
right, to be able to keepemotions at stake. Obviously, the
local court factor helps us in thatsense, because the many are going to
nurture the role of the fanatic andgive you that pic a little longer.
But I agree with what you say, Lisa, completely agree. Jorge Cifre

(57:17):
writes that we must wait egg againstMexico. Look at Mexico a team that
hits a lot. Hit. Whatit means in basketball is we crashed.
We hit, right, they hita lot. Do they hit a lot?
Isn' t that a deep team? Isn' t that a deep
team? It' s not ateam that has its best version right now

(57:37):
in play. They have to stolthat right now in the super national process.
We' ve been quite familiar withhim. We' ve seen it
in international tournaments. Likewise, he' s a very hard wea veteran,
little ones. But what God didnot give him in stature, he gave
to him in everything else. He' s a tough one, he'
s a smart one. It's cold bugs, rich port. You

(57:57):
have to keep the emotions in chetbecause they' re going to plan Mexico
in this game and excuse the phraseis that they' re going to try
to fuck us the egg, sothey' re going to treat us as
balls the egg in the sense thatthey' re going to try to hit
us, play us hard, playus physical. And we can' t
counter playing rough with them, thatis, we have to be clever in

(58:19):
the sense of playing basketball, doingthe little things we know how to do,
and then, because I think we' re going to take the victory.
It is a moponist that we mustwin, that is, rich port,
must win this party. That's why it was the importance of

(58:40):
this game, the fact that youdidn' t have to cross with such
and tuane in the semifinal, thatyou cross against Mexico, and it'
s not taking credit from Mexico,because Mexico is a good team, but
it' s not their best version. They have several players who took over,
got off in the course of theroad and therefore, because they don
' t have the deepest team,even sum months. I think they have
a rotation, they see with moreplayers, but I have a rotation of

(59:02):
like six players, nothing more thanare the guys that they really feel that
confidence to be able to trust them. It' s going to be quite
interesting to see how they play today, and I want to talk about the
numbers of them so I can talkto a little bit more contexts so they

(59:24):
have an idea today that they playedagainst Ivory Coast. They played with seven
players. Seven players were on thefield today and one of them forgive me.
Nine players there' s one herethat pipes it. Nine players were
on the field today and one ofthem played eight minutes, which means seven

(59:45):
players largely, but they depend onwhat port staure is, which is the
player I mentioned that wea with Quebradillasand right now super national shoot. Today
I play twenty- three points,five rebounds. Or that attendance the other
player they have and that' sthe combination. Port Store that is the
shipowner and they have Joshua and Ibarra, who is a center player of number

(01:00:09):
thirty- four of them. Orthere he scored twenty- two points,
eleven rebounds, that' s thecombination, that' s the combination.
They have that shipowner and they havethat one and they have that player in
the painting with Ibarra is a well- warranted, well- physical player.
We have to keep it under control. It' s not too high,
really. So, what you haveto do with is try to keep it

(01:00:31):
and throw it over you. Shouldwe try to keep him in the front?
Yours that I threw over? Andput your time in. But I
think more than anything in that gameon Saturday keep up the composure. I
think that' s the very importantpart of the game, keeping the composure,
not going to the brute, becausethey' re going to play.
They know they' re at adisadvantage, they' re in the opposite

(01:00:52):
country. It' s me that' s going to give you a great
game with egg onions, playing harder, being more aggressive, hitting and that
' s the part that needs tobe kept a little pat and see what
happens next, let' s seewhat happens. I' m still reading
your comments. Miguel Padilla writes onYouTube. Yesterday the strand had to be

(01:01:14):
left out of rotation. Today wemust play with participation for all. Oh,
my God Look, Miguel. Whatcan I tell you? What can
I tell you? I' mstill Borray. Efraín González writes Charlie.
I understand your point of view,but Puerto Rico cheered me on the victory,
but we didn' t have fluencyin the offensive. We won for

(01:01:37):
Alvarado' s defense and offensive.I mentioned it. I mentioned it at
first. I mentioned it at thebeginning of the recording. Ephraim, did
I ask the question yesterday? DidI ask the question yesterday? I asked
the question yesterday, when we weretalking about the game, when I was

(01:01:57):
saying in the hand game we lookedstatic offensively, we were when much one
against one came out. We wereplaying with your opponent completely inferior to Puerto
Rico. In yesterday' s daythat was Baren, I said and left
the hypothesis, I left the hypothesisand I said maybe? My hypothecy was
maybe? It was that Nelson didnot want to show his cards, his

(01:02:19):
offensive sets, taking into account that, because we did not have to brag
much against that team and we aregoing to play against Italy next day.
Or you know that scouting is on, but I think it was more like
what was seen against Bahrain, thanNelson simply hid his letters for Italy.

(01:02:42):
Why. Because we play static.We had statics at many times. There
were times when there were passes andoffensives, but there was no such fluidity
and we came back the same.He said so right now when they were
warning the game of Alvarado and Waterstogether. When one, especially when Alvarado

(01:03:07):
has the ball and Waters comes outof it, Warren does nothing. Water
stops, stops to look at it, to see if the ball returns to
it. Then when he comes backto him, but he' s going
to play one against one. That' s a tun tun oyo turn.
At the end that I was watchingthe egg in my house with my son

(01:03:28):
and my wife, I told himI think Watter has the ball in his
hands and he nourishes Alvarado. Andthe times he did that where he,
the attack, malnourished Alvarado, Alvaradoended up with chaste. And I think
it' s text wey you whenAlvarado plays one against one. It'
s not Puerto Rico' s bestoffensive, and he' s not making

(01:03:52):
good passes. On several occasions hemade good bad passes several times where we
had the pass of the walk didnot arrive because he used expensive brin.
They' re difficult positions. Iprefer Waters to have the ball in his
hands, so it' s nutraa jos alvarados. If that' s
the combination we' re going touse, I' m still out there

(01:04:12):
reading your comments. This Everardo cheverewrites to me there are still five seats
for the Olympic Games. There aregoing to be four winners from the different
groups. How is that last squaregoing to be defined? No. Not
only are four seats, there arefour cd four tournaments already all. There
are no five places, there arefour, there are already eight classified teams

(01:04:35):
and four places that are on theslope. You can classify them as the
four venues that are being played.There' s no fifth place. There
' s a fifth place. That' s four seats and datst that'
s why there' s the fourtournaments. They' re playing and simultaneously
we' re going to see whathappens with that I saw one more comment,
that' s why I don't want to write it. They
' re apologizing to Guillermo González.Ribe also saw desperate shots and low percentage,

(01:05:04):
many many low percentage shots, manyshots, many many shots that are
quite desperate. True that part mustbe mentioned sea vega writes Giron and is
not on the team, but shedoes not play much. Right. I
know that Girón is a player whogave them many minutes of quality or Puerto

(01:05:28):
Rico selection, but he is nolonger the same player. Even today played
there were twelve minutes, twelve points, nothing more. He' s coming
down. He' s not theplayer who was Gabriel Girón at some point.
He' s not the player weremember He really gave us a headache.
It' s not that version ofthat April anymore. They turned that

(01:05:49):
at some point God wants us tohave a resurrect truth on the Sabbath to
shut my mouth. But nothing's that guy. It' s ist
kay the limos. Let' ssee what happens to my people. Remember,
