Local Hour: The Court Sauntering

forgive Greg Cody for not being quite ready for what it is that we're doing right now and being off Mike He's doing a bit of arts and crafts right now Cody Do you want to tell people off Mike? Oh, you're gonna lean into the Mike when yes, this is how it works Wow, this is how it works with Greg Cody when I want him near the mic He doesn't do the mic when I wanted him off Mike. He does the closest. He's ever been the mic right to his mouth and does his job Totally correctly damn right. I'm multitasking right now, Dan. That's what that's called. What are you doing? Well, Zezlow unfortunately is wearing a Miami football shirt on a day when Miami basketball deserves every sort of pinnacle and attention and so I'm creating for him something that is gonna remedy that situation a different shirt He's wearing a Miami football shirt that reads simply Miami football with the Adidas logo over it and you are coming over We're not on air right now, so you are not video on air so nobody can see what you're doing He's walked across the room. I should theatrically do that. He's now covering up the football like that. The shadow show is Is not a video is that right? Okay, we can keep track. Yeah, but viewers will have a payoff once we go live They will it doesn't match great though. It's a good. It's a good shirt But the colors are not green and orange green orange and blue really don't green orange and masking tape really don't work It's my first time wearing this shirt too new shirt Miami football was celebrated last night to Mike Ryan Stormed a court and Fologianly, I don't think I stormed I just Saunter yes No, no, I definitely was on the court. I said security that was assembled with a human chain That was presumably there to prevent me from going on the court hate and my daughter and I go in they're like go right ahead And I just sauntered on the dirt instantly feel old because I did that one Do we be Duke what was in a few years ago and I was at the game and I was like I'll go on the court And I was just like I'm old. I guess I would feel old if I were just doing it to make myself happy I was doing it to have make a memory with my daughter which I did and no I didn't I guess I felt old because I'm a dad Well and you're sauntered and a court storm you're supposed to know every nobody's storm This is why this was this was universally you know what a court sauntering you're so right about this It did seem to me more like milling about Mm-hmm. We all collectively like should we do this like you could see the students like were trepidacious to do it because we don't storm the field Miami football does not do that because down here You'd get shot because they have self respect. Yeah, and also they'd shoot us. They straight up would at least for football That's not that's something that you can get away with you know in Appalachia It's not something that you can do in Miami, Garts. Well, let let to be clear Okay, during a court storming do not bring a child like that a legitimate and real court storming sauntering Sauntering, it's totally legal. That's right. It's totally fair. Is it job? This is the down lebertar show with this to got spot cast We've had some heaters around here occasionally Zaz is the one that most recently has had a giant heater where he parlayed the Miami heat getting into a play-in game Into a job at a good year last year Yeah, like just a lot of winning that Zaz did But Mike Ryan is presently doing a great deal of winning It's not just that he and Chris Cody are GM of the year and the battle court cyclones are raining champions like inner Miami Harder for the Panthers to repeat than it then it is going to be for the cyclones or enter Miami So I feel like that's one version of winning But then last night you get the biggest victory of the year and I think I can say this They made the tournament last night like I think can happen. I Suppose they can get injured because they don't have any depth they're playing five people and and they have to play everybody But what was evident last night in not being much of a surprise against North Carolina's oh look North Carolina is still young and looks a little bit like Students whereas my amies physically those are men like those are physically men out there And if you can do that to North Carolina and not get tired late like I thought they were gonna I thought for sure they were gonna lose that game in the last five minutes because they played all five guys They're they're playing their starters the whole time and I really thought That North Carolina would wear them down late, but they didn't have the size the physicality to wear them down There were zero players on this roster in late March zero There wasn't a staff It was just that Jay Lucas higher and totally rebuild a basketball program that Wasted all the momentum from a final four appearance and in less than a year Jay Lucas has a team that is bigger Stronger more physical than North Carolina, which is a very good team I'm not saying better, but last night they were in a couple of months He just built a roster at a thin air that is getting a signature victory and in all likelihood unless a really trip up here Down the stretch puts him in the tournament. Okay, the ref so that we know the refs allow them to play a physical style of basketball What ends up derailing this is Ray new and foul trouble like they can't even afford that never mind an injury We have Sally Alton touch. No, they can't that guy's a joke for an era what That you're a Joe no respect your a Joe respectfully. We were watching careful three minutes Who's your words wisely my father in law was watching the game is like who's that guy? And I'm like that's a Altundash He might be 40 or he might be 18. I'm not 100% sure he looks like our Venus subonus at the end Let's play some sound of the fans excited and what was a genuine court milling about God bless America God bless That was me They caught me in an emotional moment those are the three things that I love with my whole heart Malaki The UM football team was celebrated last night as well We've got Mario Cristobal riding his players during an interview Mike was moved were you moved to tears Mike during the halftime celebration of this most beloved team of yours? Yeah, it was a special season and I wasn't moved to tears, but I I good I've been yeah Come on man, which up. I'm a red blooded American male But you know, I've been kind of sad because we lost I've been on a heater Yeah, it was great to see the football program be there But I still haven't really completely shaken off that loss But it was good that to see a highlight package that firmly established Miami back into relevancy I don't have to hear when the last time Miami was relevant on a football field and it was cool to celebrate the achievements of last year And honestly, it was cool. See in some of these these players again and the Mario Cristobal It's hard to get a compliment from Mario Cristobal Mario Cristobal After the highlight and and trying to pump the crowd up He was like I'm he was turning the microphone over to Mark Fletcher And he touted Mark Fletcher's achievements most rushing yards in the history of the college football playoff He's a great player and a better man Which is just you know like that it's very hard to get a compliment from an older Cuban man Yeah, I know. Yes, I was raised by one. I mean it is kind of a blanket thing a lot of coaches say about it Yeah, but it's not something more I'm not right. I'm not saying like Mark I think they mean it, but it is kind of a thing you hear it's kind of crazy like Mark Fletcher's coming back for his senior year and With that helmet that logo on that helmet after a national championship game previous years the discussion would be look at these thugs look at Mark Fletcher look at him being a sore loser And that wasn't there because everybody even nationally when they heard Miami people speak with With reverence mark to Mark Fletcher They all kind of took our word for it and Mark Fletcher is that dude easy unquestioned leader of this team And then Mark Fletcher took over the mic and essentially said we're gonna finish the job next season He said they got finished. That was a pretty cool pop. Wow. It's a promise He also told Mike at half time that the university Miami basketball team is gonna win and Mike believed him just because Mark Fletcher was saying it And he's in the cult. He's full on in the cult of Fletcher. Yeah, I'm a big Fletcher So you've been like I know you're saying you've been heartbroken you're having a very hard time getting over losing the national championship game This doesn't qualify. It's one of those years for you as a fan where you're gonna Like that you're that you shouldn't be upset you should be looking at it fondly about how amazing it was like when the panthers lost the Stanley Cup in 2023 I wasn't upset like I mean yeah Would have felt great to win the Stanley Cup for the first time But it was such a thrill the whole thing like the Miami heat when they lost in 2023 the same year I wasn't upset it was it was so amazing the run like you're you're still down about yeah Yeah, because the difference here is like Florida didn't have enough They got really injured and they lost in five and it was a miracle that they got the one game there Another comparison would be that Miami Heat team that this city really loved that was scrapping with Karam Butler LeMora Odom they went toe-to-toe with the Pacers and the conference semis Yeah, but like you you kind of felt good like yeah, all right Miami is back great the way that this one's different is Miami at the ball with you know Time left on the clock and they were driving down the field. It was in their home stadium You had gone through so much like just to make it into the college football playoff was a war in itself And you had it right there for you so it's a little bit different. They're the heartbreak there Wasn't that we just lost it was like I wouldn't say though that that's the only difference what Zaz is talking about is having a general gratitude That program raised you and set the expectations and a place that the standard is totally unreasonable like the Panthers You got it and we're like holy shit. I got to do that But you've already done this with the hurricane you did this for many years with the hurricanes So you've taken the beating the last few years But you're right when you say they squandered the basketball team squandered all the momentum that they had They were in the position the football teams in you're supposed to take that and springboard it the idea that they didn't have a team a few months ago That their coach had retired and they'd squandered it all and now we're beating north Carolina and while that's not much of a court storming because it was a milling about I was ready to call child services on Mike Ryan. I was ready to use the illustrator correctly today and said show me all the other children who are on this court You don't bring a child to a court storming like everybody knows you don't do that But this wasn't a court storming this was a gathering it was a gathering It was an it was a skippet. They're skipping out onto the court. It was an occurrence Put it like a picnic, but it was also the court wasn't totally full so it doesn't No, we didn't know if we were allowed. No good. So it wasn't dainty court shame. No, it didn't feel dangerous Mike was allowed to saunter on the fringes because there wasn't a bussel at the middle of it had too many people a little bit of a Little bit of a sad court storm. It wasn't a storm. It was a gathering This looks lit like you're saying like you're standard hurricane really powerful in the middle and then not The eyes no the middle is actually To dance larger point you know about that. I the last two seasons of Miami basketball have honestly been disrespectful to what the team That made it to the final four Did it was last year in particular was one of the worst power conference seasons of basketball I have ever witnessed in my life. I was at those games. I had I have seasoned tickets I just stopped going because they didn't seem to care to try and What Jay Lucas does with his teams is they're gonna compete like that that was evident Dante Allen was a demon the fun so let's talk about this part of it a second game analysis for just a second Okay, I've watched a little North Carolina basketball this year and they don't get slowed like Kentucky Duke and Navier the two team the three teams that did this and I'm assuming it's Because Navy plays that shot clock bullshit where they take every like they're doing I'm assuming Navy's doing backdoor cuts for both of them basketball. I'm assuming they're They're doing I'm assuming they're trying to do it as slow as possible And so but when Kentucky slows North Carolina offensive. I wasn't expecting that I wasn't expecting the defense of five guys to not wear down They're supposed to wear down against the depth and the blue the all the McDonald all American of North Carolina you're supposed to wear down when North Carolina's resting its starters, but you're but high is not It's Jay. I know it's the the spelling of highlight, but it but it's Jay Lucas and god bless him for reminding me last night That I'm a traditional power. I had forgotten. Why isn't he personally? Yeah, I'm a blue blood. Oh, okay I'm a traditional power in the ACC a college basketball power and the last two seasons made me forget that I almost forgot who I was I mean last season guys. I cannot articulate how pathetic last seasons basketball team was you've done well They did not give a single crap. It was revolting And revolting given that there's a banner from the final four from post-COVID like it felt like a lifetime ago Yeah, and the the the laraniega era which was successful still gonna go with laraniega really fizzled Yeah laraniega, okay, it was squandered It's clear be clear on how hard that is to do there are any number of Cinderella's that get to the final four and then disappear But the my the university of Miami is a campus as a reputation is not them in major like you should be able to build off of that They've done it with the football program is it easier in this NIL age to squander than a normal and it would have been Definitely passed yes, but but if you're one of these schools who has a reputation and can't get your players bought by others because you You build it correctly. They went to the final four and they lost Zey Wong who was a cc player of the year and Jordan Miller who is still hanging around the NBA who is really unsung hero of that team But they brought back wuka poplar. They brought back Nigel pack They brought back norchadu mere baby food. By the way is absolutely killing killing killing the giligin is gonna get a call up They they brought back what I thought that team was going to be The best team in Miami history the year after the final four because I was norchad brought it nobody else did And then the following season was just a joke Quick break to tell you about a special Miller time I had with my good buddy mochetta mochetta texted me the other day He said hey, what are you doing for the game? I said I'm just on my couch right now doing nothing Enjoying it. He's like hey, do you want some company? I said from you mochetta?

I don't deserve it Okay, I don't deserve it and you're a fool for saying it Stugots you're a fool. Yeah, I was kind of following Oh, you're locking in right now. You're locking in on out. Yeah, right. Let's drop the gloves pal You should be thanking me for what every day for what I've done around this character and the second Shit gets real for you. You want to come at me and call me a fool Oh, seriously, Jeremy seriously This is the down lebertar show with this two gods To your point though, Chris yes, FA you also made a run and now has faded back to the pack But they lose their head coach gets taken by somebody else There are power that other teams use as a feeder system My army is trying to get into the biggest game ACC's the biggest game like that they're in the conference that plays the biggest basketball games And so they're trying to get to the top of of what that is But what I enjoyed about yesterday because Zaz comes in with his shirt and his pride today I'm gonna ask the same question of Cody that I asked of this of Zaz Are you familiar with Ernest Uday? No Do you know who that is though? Yeah, I know he's a player on on you. I'm I'm not really well versed No, but I'm not even here I'm not here to make fun of you about that. I'm here to tell you March is approaching and this is how everybody does it who's not immersed in the college basketball of it throughout the year Zaz I asked him before the show Ernest Uday and he's like who's that and I'm like the guy who played best last night The guy who looked like he was more adult than the players who play for North Carolina Yeah, I mean last night was the ultimate attention getter at exactly the right time I mean if you're a marginal UM fan or somebody on the periphery going Are they having a good season now you know now you know how good they are if you didn't know before I think they should have been ranked a long time ago when they were 15 and two there only two losses at the top 10 teams But now they're gonna be ranked and everybody's paying attention at exactly the right time Because most people think college football season doesn't even start until football ends and so what a college basketball College basketball so what a gorgeously timed victory less what happened Tony was right there Yeah, he's making it excited. Yeah, he's gonna get the kids rev in and then they got the sport wrong and then it all fell And I forgot everything he says I don't know if you were watching the game last night. Well, I watched a whole game You watch a whole game, but I watched on mute. Okay, so Uday's a guy that was It's like I don't know anyone's name the guy that was the Andre Jordan last night. Okay, that's who they're talking about I Prime deandre Jordan was a fun player to watch. I like yeah, yeah, and he was playing in Coral cables. All right cool. Cool. He's their fifth best player I think I can say that right like they they they're there kill these heal is gonna be free throws And if they get in injured or foul troubles like they don't they don't have any depth Mike it really is five it's five guys like They I mean you got you got tray you got Shelton Henderson. He's a piece of Say the name again. Yeah, but look The post presence of Ray new is he missed in the Boston College game He missed three layups and two dunks, but again more adult than the people he's playing and it's not it's not just a size thing The team is unusually physical the way that they're playing defense nobody slows North Carolina got bullied last night Yeah, say it playing like I was no I'm gonna lock it North Carolina. Yes, yes that too you came out of a boxing glove Yeah, that's what happens when you try to box out sell you out Just to be clear because many of people are going to correctly be hearing Overreaction in what we're saying about Miami and you should for this reason They will not be allowed by the refs to play a game like that again all season like the refs let everybody play in that game And so Miami more adult bullied North Carolina coming off of a giant win where it's you can just you're watching a basketball game And you're you want to switch the uniforms because for example when you're watching Duke Cam boosers more adult. He's a freshman But he's more adult physically than the people he's playing against and I'm just not used to seeing that North Carolina can be finesse But they've always got the athletes like they step on every court and unless it's Duke They've got the athletes and so to see Miami to see Freshman goes to the locker room looks like a kid he's gonna figure out how to play basketball in the next three years And the but these but at the at the moment He's a sixth grader playing against a bunch of guys who have been playing at the park and are coming home from the construction job And are putting an elbow in his ear It's just it was so hard for North Carolina to get a clean shot up And last year I was screaming and they could hear me because not many people were there put a hand up Just just try to put a hand up in a passing lane Every single shot was like pulling teeth from North Carolina because these kids compete It was great to see so refreshing because last year really killed my passion for the sport The other thing too is Wilson would get the ball to low block and try to do the same exact move every time Spinning jump hook and it was like buddy if that's your bag He would try to back down any of Miami's front line guys and he would just bounce back There was no he had no motion to get to the roll bill like celilton dash literally He would he would sit there and like push against the wall and then just turn around and shoot a jump hook And it was like if that's your offense you guys are done guys. Please get me some Optics on to dodge please so that everyone can know what we're talking about because this is always a fan favorite The guy who's just cardboard stiff his hair's bad you don't know whether he's 18 or 40 He's gonna give you three minutes. He's gonna flop around out there He's getting offensive rebound for you and you'll run him off the court both laughing and hoping that you don't have to rely Zero lateral movement you don't want to rely too much on him in March every time I have the Keynes game on my wife walks in the room She says it's constant team pop-up playing. No, no, no, no wait a minute constant team pop-up I recognized you just look at him and let me like that's a basketball player It's unusual it's usually not that skinny Constantine pop-up was the big guy who can play it seven three from the perimeter before that was a popular thing This is not that this is a dry cleaning rack making its way through the lane just trying to grab an offensive rebound And it's missing rack it's missing hair with a with a park bench for shoulders Yeah, a dry cleaning rack Salio Duntaj is carved of granite. No, no, no, no two minutes. What a two minutes he produced less. It was electric He's a pillar he's up hell out Got the hell of a board and then turned it off to a fast break. Can we look at all these Europeans that are playing defense for jade Lucas I am telling you it's going to be very hard to retain this young man Uh put up rainew real quick because I want people to see that he had his nose bloody and I think his mouth was bloody too Correct like they they really let them play last night at one point I saw North Carolina late in the game had four free Dude two positions and I'm like we're covering. I feel like it's saying I was like yes They're gonna let us play today. I feel like it's always embarrassing no matter what you're doing And there of course he's playing basketball But when he got the goss sticking out of your nose. Yeah, that's always embarrassing look now. That's culture This is Miami's basketball team right now This is a team that doesn't take the privilege of stepping on to the wood for granted I need a worse picture than that. That's a good picture Yeah So much hair under one armpit and not a lot of hair into the Shadow That's not Armour shame him let's stop here. Let's shame the entirety of him not just the armpit So guys the shaming this legend. I need the other shot like what's going on here? So he looks like a young runny cycle. All right. It's a shadow. Okay. It is not Ronnie cycle He looks like no he looks like an old Ronnie cycle. That's why it's funny. Yes. Thank you DJ Ronnie cycle DJ Ronnie cycle he still has all his hair This guy has more hair under one arm than the other and some of it's missing off of the top of his head The the effect you need to understand that one of the reasons that everyone is noticing him They would not if he were simply bald But the hair is distracting because it looks out of place because it looks dishevelled like he's he's run Depanicked from a building. I don't know. I think you'd look even crazier bald And this guy looks pretty insane you guys you got he would notice he wouldn't look all the help them He would not look older Let me see these armpit again. I'm gonna break this down a little if I can here. There's more Part of it in the shadow right here Okay, I'm gonna mess this up right right here not a lot of hair Then here it looks like way more hair, but as I really dissect it It as I really dissect there's a shadow here See you know what normal amount of hair that should be like a look for some players You're like one arm. Oh, man. That's that's the pit with all the air. Lewis do me a favor Please surely you will find a photo that shows us the top of his head because it's what's distracting those are the camera angles that hurt him when When lives when lives are noticing good luck I'm sure the internet is littered within game action photos of celi up and that I found one I'm sending it to Lewis now. Thank you. I'm sure look Lewis. Oh, that one was unfortunate I remember that play that's about he gathered and he turned with momentum behind him which means the wind was starting the inertia of it all was pushing that hairline back What I need everyone listening to this to understand because this is March Madness in full bloom March madness in full bloom is The wives and girlfriends Discovering that the thing that you're watching has a player that makes them at who is that and why is he out there? Like don't watch basketball you're right Dan That is Thank you Jeremy. It's a good correction But Tony brought up the fact that somebody it wasn't not father in law Oh my father on the couch watching the game. He's like who's this guy and I'm like our Venus subonus I thought it was your wife that asked you because my wife is not care because my wife you should assume my wife is asking me those questions when When I'm watching she's like she she comes over the television. She's like well those aren't the pros Those aren't as good as those aren't why are you watching this? Who's that? Who's that? Oh honey? He couldn't get enough minutes in tonight's game He's not gonna get any but he's gonna you're gonna want to watch the three minutes that he's out there That's one of the great discoveries It's not just that says is watching on mute and you're learning right we're learning Ernest don't get to be good at sports That's not it's Ernest Biner and that's the list like Ernest Graham had a moment for Florida Ernest Uday made a name for himself last night What about Ernie's? Yeah, Ernest Borg none Not not actually not helpful It's not it's he was great in baseball You just wanted to say an Ernest that you know I did yeah Because I don't count Ernie's Ernie elves you can't count the Ernie's Ernest is a totally different name Somebody's gonna be less good at sports when they're named Ernest correct. Yeah Ernest banks Oh That was several generations ago though it's that's 1950s 1960s we can all agree deck is stacked if your name is it's mr Cubs though. It's the shortstop it's a hall of famers Don Lebatard I feel like we need to normalize saying the scientific terms for Organs on the air like if someone yes, you know what if someone takes a foul ball to the penis We should just say he took a foul ball to the penis. See it's two guts that free kick hit him right in the cock I doodle do this is the Don Lebatar show with this two guts I Mean just what are you talking? We became tongue city. It was just so great to watch so refreshing to watch that brand of basketball I'm telling you and five years provided we keep this coach, which is going to be very difficult We're gonna make a final four again. So this coach spells his name Hi Goes by J Is he allowed to make that distinction for us because I was arguing on last names recently that you don't get to decide what your last name is pronounced by me If you're spelling it in a way that puts double L's on it and you don't want to be Hispanic like Castellanos doesn't get to be terrible and no he doesn't get to be that that's incorrect It's Castellanos even if he wants to be called that can I do the same thing with high? Can I make Jay Lucas? High Lucas and can I go further more if we're not going to allow this and you're gonna bend this many rules Can I then call it JLI that you're the champions that the cyclones are now the champions of JLI instead of high Yeah, if we go to a final four I'm all on board renaming it JLI I'm down with that. Thank you for mentioning the champion cyclone season started yesterday Dan this is a whole new game All right, the front-on has changed. We're at the jam arena now and it looks spectacular I saw a giant cartoon replica of you two holding up a trophy and enjoying the triumphs of last season Chris and Mike were commemorated in a giant thing that I saw Celebrating you as raining excellence in that sport new venue means new banners So we refreshed the banner because we are two time champs But guys this place is spectacular And now it's that good sound JLI Fridays at battle court at the jam arena The JLI happens before a headlining comedy set Whitney Cummings is probably the strangest opener in her career That's a pretty strange one I'm sure she's got to tell stories who are comic friends like yeah I said they had this weird bass country sport that played before me JLI Yeah J Liar something like that, but the cyclones take the front-on today at three o'clock YouTube ESPN app if you want to follow your raining defending cyclone champion and it's tough when you're a champion It's a whole new sport like the the glass wall is now in the back So it even sounds different sounds like danya high-rise childhood two dollar beers and quinellas This sound because you know if you've been to the the magic city court It had this like thickness to it This is this sound that you get now. This is the highlight sound off the wall that I came to describe what it sounds like Just that sound of the highlight pilot to hit in the wall It sounds like a billiard ball if you were to throw it across a pool table is what the sound it sounds great But the bigger court means more winners from the back court. Hopefully we're blessed. I have two incredible back quarters are captain My new it's a different game you you yeah my new is a legend. He's not going anywhere We texted my new how we feeling about the new play he said terrible Well, my new is never happy about any my new is very he loves the set expectations low. It's his thing It's our band. How about the under take the you into take always confident. He's been he's been saying sharp He's been playing overseas. He's back now and this fronton plays to his strengths Which is why we made the very difficult decision to keep him we could only bring back four players We also brought back Bradley who had an incredible season last year in his back court part and his front court partner from last year They went undefeated the greatest athlete in the history of sports Jettin now before you look at me like I'm crazy Here I'm gonna talk we talk about bow Jackson right we talk about Dion say and checks out and why do we do why do we do that because they just merely played in these other sports to Nard Davis won a Super Bowl and a battle court championship all right that's who Jettin is who else has done that he's got Two rings two world championships in two different sports What are you smiling about Greg Cody last time he's talking about a champion and the only story I know about you at JLI is coughing so much until you passed out on the side. Yeah, that's true.

He looks like Steve Bannon his hair makes him look like Steve Bannon Military green is a choice What's going on with your go T? Can you explain what's happening here? You're bringing back a 90s go T You have a little bit of Fred Fred Durston you It's laziness You know sometimes as a routine I go four or five days without shaving Just because and I went long enough this time where it started to grow in a little bit I can't grow a beard because my cheeks are like awful and the it doesn't really come in as a beard So I decided to debirth it and just leave the go T Partly because my wife hates facial hair Fred Durston Fred yeah Fred Durston Maybe a chin thing So this is a compromise go T Greg go T Quintam say Drew ski Drew ski To a great start to the Dano Greg Greg this is how we're doing this He's my inner monologue okay now you're I'm supposed to ignore my I Am supposed to ignore my inner monologue by my inner monologue was indeed feeling insecure about my limp biscuit reference It fell limp and I knew it and he knew it and so he came to the microphone and he's giving voice to the audience making fun of me You're supposed to run right past it I keep arguing with it because occasionally he doesn't appear as my inner monologue He just appears to give me things he's secretly thinking super container Greg say Drew ski again You are explaining the show now Dan. It's not good. I'm explaining it to Greg I mean he did I'm explaining it to him because he doesn't understand who Drew ski is Why someone saying Drew ski and he's just paranoid? He also says he thought it was said to him privately He also still doesn't understand anything you just told But the others come to explain back what you explained the other part of it is that there's so many people Talking in the ears as the show is going on the Tony hits the wrong microphone yesterday and says to Chris Cody and the rest of us go to fake or real podcast when none of us were doing that as the show Do to me this is Greg Minor penalty two minutes for explaining the show The nerve of this guy Really that's that's the one that that it couldn't you know took care of all of our sins yesterday walking out the door and Stumbling on the way out Jason Taylor really coming back oh Man this NBA We're gonna be joined by Nick Ryan a little bit and he's getting loads of fanfare for a podcast that he did with Bill Simmons where he tries to fix the NBA Well, what do you mean? Well, okay, so the NBA needs a lot of fixing but what was like the crux of I haven't heard it yet We can ask him for like the the good stuff, but I assume you know not knowing when the stars are playing as a big deal Last night you saw the Lakers like LeBron James now is not eligible for any postseason awards That's a crime so it ends his streak of all NBA like 21 straight years of all NBA Why's it a crime because I like the 65 game minimum, but that's to prevent Tanking and and too much rest and and all the other reasons the star might not play In this case if it's a legitimate injury which apparently this was and he's at 64 games because of a legitimate injury I don't think it should be a hard fast. Oh, but it's you say that as if you know He's not gonna miss any other games and he's gonna fall one game short of 65 like there's gonna be plenty more games This season where he actually does rest right because of his age like he's I mean it will probably be somewhere around mid 50s at the end of the season I just think it needs to and I know this is hard to do but if it's tanking if it's like you tall resting starters Obviously just resting them because they don't want to win or if it's because too you know ridiculous amounts of rest But there has to be a way to exclude the legitimate injuries from the penalty It's difficult maybe it's impossible, but I just think it's it's terrible seems like you just want this for LeBron though It's not I don't even know if you want this as a rule. You're just like LeBron Should get this treatment. What's LeBron gonna make any of those postseason teams like now he gets a blame it on the technicality Yeah, he might have made the third team right, but why he's played third right now He's played 35 games and he's been playing okay, but there's a lot of other better players by the way Just check to stats you want to know how many games or how many seasons he's played 82 games Oh my career zero 22 seasons maybe one, but I'm not even confident in that one War point he's played 82 games on the tanking though You got a big one tonight kings and jazz. We know the jazz have been sitting their starters They're outtanking each other because tonight for the kings de André Hunter out Zach Levine out Malik Monk out Keegan Murray out de Monticebonus out Russell Westbrook out And that's against the jazz why would the NBA need fixing I don't get it I saw Bobby Marx like ripping them for tank for the jazz being like what they're doing is bad for the NBA I know the heat let let one buy them the other like the heat just can't they're trying so badly They're like what they're doing should be illegal, but they still beat the heat The thing that you guys are ignoring because it is pretty amazing to go 21 straight years all NBA like it's something that doesn't have A precedent uh he's out for arthritis like it's sciatica and now it's foot arthritis like LeBron James is literally so old He's out for arthritis
