This week on Dope Labs, TT and I dive into the world of probiotics. The hype, the science, and what your gut bacteria are really doing behind the scenes. From drinks and gummies to probiotic pillows. Yes, really, probiotic pillows. We're breaking down what's legit and what's just brilliant marketing with expert Insight from gastroenterologist Dr. Roshi Raj.

The best things in life are on the other side of difficult conversations. But if we're honest, most people run from them. Staying silent, missing chances and holding themselves back. I know this is true because I used to be like that until I realized that negotiation isn't a talent. It's a skill that anyone can learn. And once I did, everything changed. I went from people pleaser to confident communicator. And now I teach Fortune 500 leaders and top executives how to do the same.

You are listening to the Dan Patrick show on Fox Sports Radio. Welcome to the program. It's hour one on this Tuesday. Dan and the Danettes Dan Patrick show A lot to rec, a lot to try to predict, look forward to. We got Pacers, Cavaliers, Game 5, Nuggets, Thunder coming up as well. And for entertainment purposes, according to DraftKings, I got the Pacers getting seven and a half at Cleveland and the Nuggets are getting 10 at Oklahoma City. 877-3DP Show Email address dpdanpatrick.com Twitter handle DP Show Good morning.

Let the pros come in and do all the work. You enjoy the results exclusion supply. See trugreen.com for details. Play of the Day Poll question Stat of the day all of that Forthcoming Knicks over the Celtics 3 1. Jason Tatum with an injury. No update on that. He'll probably be having an MRI this morning, but they might have to wait until the swelling goes down, whether it's an ankle or an Achilles. The Timberwolves up 31 on the warriors and the Dallas Mavericks win the NBA draft lottery, followed by the Spurs 76ers and the Hornets. It's one of those moments where you're watching and you're watching it. It almost slowed down. I I'm watching. I'm going, oh my goodness. So Utah's out and Washington's out and New Orleans is out. Okay, and let's go to break. And then they come back. I go, I'll be damn. Dallas is going to win the NBA draft lottery and we gave you a heads up yesterday. Here is Fritzi on the show all right, Todd, you are going to manipulate the draft lottery. What is in the best interest of the NBA?
- [05:15]
Unknown
My initial thought was from Durham to Charlotte, that Cooper stays in North Carolina and the Hornets get the pick. But I'm actually going to go with the Mavericks after the fans got blindsided by that lucre deal. I'd like to see Flag go to the Dallas Mavericks.
- [05:27]
Seton O'Connor
All right. Okay. You kind of picked two there, but you did, you know, I guess finally focus on the Dallas Mavericks. So I'm going to give you credit. I, in fact, I text that to the Danets. I said, Fritz, he got it right. Ish. And Dallas gets their man. But you know, there's going to be people who say conspiracy theory or why would you, you know, do something, go out of your way to help the Dallas Mavericks? As our good buddy Vincent Goodwill says, I've watched the lottery, picked up the ping pong balls myself to see how they they're weighed. Etc. Not only is draft rigging in that way really hard to do, it's also a federal crime. We don't want to, you know, have something like that get in the way of our conspiracy theories. But when you do think about it, there are times when you go things that make you go, hmm, so Patrick Ewing going to the Knicks, Derrick Rose going to the Bulls. Should get a little more emphasis here because they had like a 1.8% chance to get him. And he goes to his hometown. LeBron goes to his hometown. The Dallas Mavericks don't deserve this. But then they get Cooper Flag. And I'm thinking, Cooper Flag is there for the lottery and he's got to be thinking, please not Washington, please not Washington. No offense to Washington D.C. of course, but you know, he goes to Dallas and you do have some veterans there. I think that will help. I don't think the focus will necessarily be on just him. You get ad, you get Kyrie. You know, they got some younger big men too. And I think he might be able to ease in a little bit better with a place like Dallas as opposed to Utah where he'd be singled out and certainly with Washington D.C. but the Mavericks win the lottery and let the conspiracy theories resume.
- [07:21]
Dan Patrick
Yes, Paul, they were immediate yesterday. Whether online or just walking into people outside my house, people are like, oh, this is classic NBA. They convinced the Mavericks to quietly trade Luca to the Lakers and do them a solid on the back end. And I mean, these were grown men walking up to.
- [07:38]
Seton O'Connor
I know, yes.
- [07:39]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
The conspiracy theories were so prevalent that we actually did it on our show yesterday with that clip, you just say, if we were to manipulate the draft, where would we put them? That's how far ahead everybody was on.
- [07:51]
Seton O'Connor
Let's.
- [07:52]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
Let's see how they rigged this.
- [07:53]
Seton O'Connor
Yeah, yeah. And I didn't even think, but there I saw some of the threads that said, oh, I see what the NBA did. You know, the Mavericks did the Lakers a solid, gave them their future with Luca. Well, we got to do something nice for them. We're going to give them Cooper flag. Also, the speculation on where Giannis is going to go. He just said he would be open to a trade. He'd be open to it. Now, that's a polite way of saying, you can trade me or we're going to trade me. I'll decide where I want to go. But, you know, hopefully it'll benefit you guys because the window is closed. You know, Dame time is. Is over. That clock stopped now with Giannis at 30. And there were a lot of analysts who, you know, they had trade scenarios for the Bucks and the San Antonio spurs. And I was like, why San Antonio for Giannis? If I'm San Antonio and I have dear and Fox, Stefan Castle was the rookie of the year. I got Victor Wembanyama. I just build it, just add a little bit more. You're going to need another veteran. You're going to need somebody who's probably in their late 20s, early 30s, and then, you know, that'll be a steadying force that you're going to have. I said, from the time that they drafted Wembanyama, just get a point guard. Well, they have a couple of them that will, you know, help his growth. But they have the second pick in the draft, and Ace Bailey might be the guy. Ron Harper's son might be the guy. And I did watch a little bit. I watched more Rutgers basketball than I should have. And these guys, while they're great, they didn't even make the tournament. They. They have potential. Potential means that you haven't done anything. And I think that's the scary part of, okay, you can add them. Is that really going to change your fortunes? And San Antonio has two draft picks, I think the second and the 14th. You know, maybe you can pair that together. Maybe you can put together a package. Maybe you could get some. Some pieces there. But I think San Antonio, you know, quietly did well last night. And, you know, we go back to the teams that lost, the teams that had 14% chance. You know, is the lottery fair? Well, is tanking fair? You know, that's the problem. I have that you had teams that tried not to win. Maybe they weren't trying to lose as much as they were trying not to win. I know it's semantics here, but, you know, we've gone through a lot of iterations of the NBA draft lottery, and I don't know what is considered fair, but is this five consecutive years, that team with the worst record didn't get the number one pick in the, the lottery in the draft, but I don't know what the probability of that is of the worst team is not getting the number one pick in the draft. All right, we'll come up with a poll question. Obviously, with the Knicks situation, Jason Tatum, we don't know severity. And look, can we speculate on how he reacted to the injury? Look, more of an Achilles than an ankle or even a knee, but even the, the pain reaction. And I don't know if it's the pain of I'm, I know I'm not going to be able to help my team or the actual pain of the injury because I've been around people, I've mentioned this before, played hoops with a guy who blew out both Achilles on the same right at the same moment, and he was in tremendous pain. But then I see Aaron Rodgers or Kevin Durant or Kobe. You know, everybody reacts differently to this, but my reaction when I saw it was that looked like an Achilles. Now, Boston can still win this series. Like, you gotta, you gotta approach this as they're going to be dangerous. And sometimes you're more dangerous because you know what Derek White's going to say, I'll take up the shooting slack. Peyton Pritchard, you know, maybe Porzingis plays a big game. Drew Holiday, we're waiting for him. Like, they, they have a deep team and you probably have six guys who can get you 25 points on any given night. But I, if I'm a Knicks fan, wouldn't look at this and say we're going to the Eastern Conference finals because Boston is a great team. And, but, you know, we're going to remember these playoffs for injuries because you have Steph Curry out. That's affected that series. Jason Tatum perhaps out. Look at all the injuries with the Cleveland Cavaliers. I mean, yes, this does hurt the defending champs. I don't think anybody's sympathetic about the Cavaliers, and they had more injuries than Boston does, and they had the best record in the East. But I hate seeing Jayson Tatum, who was having a incredible game, going toe to toe with Jalen Brunson. But Boston can still win this series and I think sometimes when that. That star is out, you. You ease up a little bit here. And if you're the Knicks, you. You cannot, you cannot go in overconfident. You know, you have to go after them and you have to take them out. Because if you don't, they're. They're going to have some confidence here. And we've seen this so many times. Star player goes out, everybody rallies. Now the question is, how long can you rally for? It's like Golden State. I thought Golden State was going to win. Not last night, the previous game. And I said if they don't win that game, then they're not winning this series. And I don't think Steph Curry's coming back. But last night they got roughed up and it looks like, you know, that series is going to end maybe one more game, but we're going to look back on these playoffs and probably single out. The one thing is injuries change the entire landscape here of who's going to win the title, who's going to play for the title. Oklahoma City's been healthy. You know, they got Chad Holmgren back. They've been healthy for the most part. Denver, I think, is just tired. I think Joker is tired now. That's not an excuse, but you can watch somebody be tired. And OKC's done a lot. They've done a really good job. There's. And yes. Have I talked about great players stepping up? Yes. And Joker had better step up. Jimmy Butler didn't step up. You know, this is playoff, Jimmy. You know, I can't sit there and go, oh, I'm going to count on Buddy Healed. I shouldn't be counting on Buddy Healed. I should be counting on Jimmy Butler. But Golden State, they're wounded and they're not going to go much further than this. Seaton, what's poll question today?
- [14:30]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
Well, I mean, we can start right there with the draft lottery, I think.
- [14:35]
Seton O'Connor
Oh, okay. All right.
- [14:37]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
Right. Actually, we have a bunch here from the tow, too. I don't know if you really want to get into that this early a Tuesday. Fritzi is a. Is a new brand of Todd.
- [14:47]
Seton O'Connor
How about Fritzis after the break? Because that usually sends us in a direction where it's kind of hard for me to get back on the road. Do you have.
- [14:58]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
This is true. Yeah, this is true.
- [14:59]
Seton O'Connor
Yeah. I mean, I've seen some of the samples here of questions that Todd has had. By the way, I already have NBA title odds for next year. How does that happen? DraftKings just sent me the odds for winning the NBA title next year. Okay, I'll have those for you.
- [15:17]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
Coming up, somebody on social media submitted if Nico Harrison presented Anthony Davis and Cooper Flag for Luka Doncic, would you do it?
- [15:24]
Seton O'Connor
Oh my God. That's funny.
- [15:26]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
That's essentially.
- [15:27]
Seton O'Connor
Yes. Yes.
- [15:29]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
Man, that's tough.
- [15:30]
Seton O'Connor
Yeah. Damn. Yikes.
- [15:34]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
Like to the. The end of the season is. Hey, so if we could all just try a little harder, maybe work on getting back in shape, that'd be cool.
- [15:42]
Seton O'Connor
Here's something to consider and I don't know if many people have singled this out and that there was a play in game between Dallas and Memphis. This is in April. Memphis beat Dallas like 120 to 106. Knocked Dallas out. Dallas goes into the lottery. Also, I believe there was a coin flip. The the Bulls and the Mavericks. And the Mavericks won the coin toss. And their percentage was 1.8, I believe, and the bulls 1.7%.
- [16:22]
Dan Patrick
That's right, Dan. The Mavericks, based on a coin flip with the Bulls were in the 11 spot. The Bulls were in the 12th spot. So two different breaks had to happen for the Mavericks to get this.
- [16:33]
Seton O'Connor
Things that make you go just like a meaningless game against Memphis and you're like, okay, Dallas, bunch of injuries, they lost and now they're out. And you win a coin toss to improve your odds. Now, granted 1.8 to 1.7, but who knows?
- [16:49]
Dan Patrick
Yes, Paul, that's what's bothering people as well. Beyond conspiracy. It's like, do the Mavericks deserve this good luck after how maybe questionable it was with the Luca trade?
- [17:00]
Seton O'Connor
No.
- [17:00]
Paul Pabst
No.
- [17:01]
Dan Patrick
That's what bothers a lot of people.
- [17:02]
Seton O'Connor
Yeah. They don't deserve this. No, but how is Nico Harrison being like he had nothing to do with this, but he's going to benefit from this as the GM of the Mavericks. Yes, Seaton.
- [17:17]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
Right. And given the track record. Right. I'm not. I wouldn't be shocked if they traded.
- [17:21]
Seton O'Connor
Out of that pick or. Or they take like Dylan Harper or Ace Bailey.
- [17:28]
Dan Patrick
We re looked at it and I.
- [17:29]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
Would not be surprised.
- [17:30]
Seton O'Connor
You know, we didn't want another white superstar here. You know, we're going to trade. You know, we got Ace Bailey here. We got everything we need.
- [17:40]
Dan Patrick
Yes, Paulie, he was Cooper Flag with the umlaut from Germany.
- [17:45]
Seton O'Connor
Hey, they got their Dirk Novitz Cooper flag.
- [17:49]
Dan Patrick
Love him.

Pacers getting seven and a half against the Cavs and the Nuggets getting 10 against the Thunder. Watching last night, Jalen Brunson loves the loves the moment. He does, he eats it up. It's almost like, you know, when you go Vitamin D, when you get the sunshine on you, that's what the spotlight must feel like to Jalen Brunson.
- [24:53]
Dan Patrick
Is that his nickname?
- [24:53]
Seton O'Connor
I don't know.

Dan Patrick
Vitamin D. Everyone's feeling better when he plays.
- [24:57]
Seton O'Connor
Jalen Brunson had 39 and 12 and they're up three games to one. So he scored 30 or more points in the postseason 17 times. The only person who's done that more was Patrick ewing. He had 18 games. Brought to you by Panini America, the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show. The Thunder are the big favorites to win the title. As of this morning, they're minus 105. Then it's the Timberwolves at plus 550. The Knicks before last night's game were plus 2500. They're now plus 600. They have the third best odds to win the title. Then it's the Pacers, Cavs, Nuggets. The Celtics were plus 195 yesterday. They're plus 2500 today. And then the Golden State warriors are plus 12,000. Those are the updated odds with DraftKings, the injury to Jason Tatum and once again, once the MRI that, that information, and it might not come out until later on this morning, but hoping for the best that maybe it's a, you know, twisted ankle. But I'm, I'm judging from his reaction, how they helped him off the floor, it certainly looked like an Achilles injury. All right, couple of phone calls. Lucas in Texas, by the way, here is the call last night on the injury to Jason Tatum, courtesy of espn. Jalen Brown back in, lost the ball. Anunoby all by himself, throws it down.
- [26:47]
Paul Pabst
And Tatum is hurt.
- [26:48]
Seton O'Connor
Tatum is down. He wants a timeout. Tatum in so much pain. And the Celtics call timeout. Grabbing that right ankle. Players will tell you, I remember Dan Marino was going back to pass and he blew out his Achilles. Kevin Durant looked back as if, you know, who just kicked me? Kobe goes down, got up to shoot his free throws. We've seen player, Aaron Rodgers, you know, Rogers, you knew right away that. And he knew right away, but it wasn't pain. Or maybe his pain threshold is a lot higher than a lot of players. But, you know, these players, you know, something happens and it's a pop. And that's what surprised me, because Tatum, it looked like, was in more pain for somebody who was going to maybe blow out their Achilles. And that's why I thought maybe there's hope that it's something different. But, you know, when. When your teammates gather around you, that's when you know it's a little more serious. And look, you're trying to get the pictures. You have to. You have to get that picture once. You have to show the injury and, you know, part of the reaction there. There is a camera in the tunnel. Every, every team knows that there's a camera there. It wasn't something where you know you're going to put a camera in there and you didn't have one there. As he goes to the locker room, Every player knows, every team knows there is that camera. What's that camera called, Marvin? Called a Marshall cam. Okay, so it's there. And so when people said, oh, you shouldn't be showing this. It's fair game, you. It. It's a huge story. You have to cover the story. This is. This is news that you have to cover. If you know the kid from Louisville, Kevin Ware, when he broke his leg, that's when CBS realized, we're not going to show this. It's graphic. Gordon Hayward, when you know he broke his ankle, you have to show it. Remember Fred Kendall of the Pirates? I think he was running down first baseline, stepped on the bag, awkwardly broke his broke his leg. You have to show it. You do. Like Demar Hamlin. It's. It's a news story now. I don't want it shown over and over and over. And. And that's where you can say to your audience, we're going to. If you're just joining us, you know, this just happened a couple of minutes ago. We don't have an update, or you might have an update, and. But that's what you do if you're a news organization. You have to cover this. Yes, it's sports, but it's news. And I know that there were some people saying that there's a lack of sensitivity here, and I disagree with that. It's a huge story. You have to show it. Now is when you choose how much you're going to show it. If you're ESPN or Fox or tnt. Now you can decide how much of this are we going to show? Because I didn't know the injury until they gave me the overhead shot because ground level. I'm not quite sure what just happened. I thought maybe just slipped. And then all of a sudden I realized that he was in pain. And until they showed me up above where you got to see what was happening, that's the first time I realized that's probably an Achilles. All right, Lucas in Texas leads us off. Hi, Luke. What's on your mind today?
- [30:14]
I
Hey, Dan. Good morning.
- [30:15]
Seton O'Connor
Good morning.
- [30:17]
I
A little bit of snark, and then I want to talk to NBA off season. Y' all were saying all these guys that got drafted or, you know, conspiracy got drafted by their hometown team. He might not be from Dallas technically, but a white guy named Cooper is going to be right at home in a town like Dallas, I promise you.
- [30:32]
Seton O'Connor
Like.
- [30:32]
I
Anyway, I'd like to talk a little bit about the stuff you were mentioning yesterday related to Giannis, particularly going to the Rockets. You know, I got you on the. Our Rockets bandwagon earlier this season, and I just want to come out early and, like, forcefully and say, I do not want to trade for Giannis as a Rockets fan, because if you go, look back since the creation of the Supermax player system, I can only find maybe one team that made a trade for a superstar that actually converted that into an NBA championship, and that's the Raptors with Kawhi. And it just doesn't seem to actually convert when you mortgage your future on one superstar player to an actual championship on the court. And I just. I want to keep developing this young core and see how far they can go rather than Getting that outside help.
- [31:21]
Seton O'Connor
Yeah, I agree. Although, when the Phoenix Suns traded for Charles Barkley, that. That worked out. They went to the NBA Finals. But, yes, trying to get somebody who was the right guy. And what kind of assets do you have to give up? Because it's one thing to say, boy, he would be great on this team. Well, what are you giving up? We tend to look at, you know, trades from one angle and. And being in the Northeast, listening to sports radio shows, they would always talk about what the Yankees should be getting. You know, I think the Yankees, they should trade for and they give up. And then, you know, and then you go, well, wait a minute. You're going to give up, you know, these scrubs and you're going to get a superstar? Yeah, I'll hang up and listen. Okay? Doesn't work that way. Although if you look at the Lakers and the Mavs trade, then sometimes it does. Imagine if somebody said this. They called in to sports radio the day before, hey, how about the Lakers give the Mavs Anthony Davis and Doug Christie's son. I'll hang up and listen. What do you think the host would have said? Are you crazy? We're not gonna do that. What's Doug Christie's son's name? Max. Max Cruz. Okay, Max Christie. Yes.
- [32:48]
Dan Patrick
Paul Super Max Christie.
- [32:50]
Seton O'Connor
Well, better.
- [32:51]
Dan Patrick
He had a ways to go. Yeah, but that's when the Mavericks trade broke. I think Sham Sharania broke it from espn. Nobody believed it. It was that nonsensical.
- [33:01]
Seton O'Connor
Yeah. Let's see. Jeff in Milwaukee. Hi, Jeff. What's on your mind today?
- [33:07]
I
Morning.
- [33:08]
Seton O'Connor
So that guy that just called in.
- [33:10]
I
Houston, Giannis is built different. You're going to love him if you get him. I love that guy. But as far as the draft, I'm not so concerned about the conspiracy with the lottery.
- [33:20]
Seton O'Connor
I'm more disgusted that this gm. It should be.
- [33:24]
I
Got the check. I mean, to one company should basically.
- [33:28]
Seton O'Connor
Be banned from the NBA.
- [33:29]
I
You don't even if you want to trade Luca, you have to market him. He didn't market him at all. He didn't do his job correctly. I called back when the Bears got fleeced and they tried to get Mitch Trubisky.
- [33:42]
Seton O'Connor
And it's the same thing here. Well, he should have had a leak to one reporter, maybe a local reporter, that this. This could happen. Therefore, the other teams can then go, hey, is it true? And then all of a sudden you could get a, you know, a discussion here. Do I want Anthony Davis? No, I don't. Is he a Hall of Famer? Yes, he is, but I can't build around him. I can't build around Kyrie and some of the younger big guys they got. You're not really building around them either. You can build around Cooper Flag and what do you. How about trading Kyrie? I wonder if they would consider that. Send Kyrie to a, you know, somebody who's going to contend. Still a great player. Not sure his age. Is he around 33? Does that sound right, Marvin? I know Anthony Davis is around that same age as well. So you got a window here of about two years. Cooper Flag can ease in and then all of a sudden becomes his team. Robert in San Diego. Hi, Robert. What's on your mind today?
- [34:53]
I
Oh, wow, awesome. Thank you so much for taking my call.
- [34:58]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
This is what I had in mind. I mean, it was a cool draft.
- [35:02]
I
For the NBA to.
- [35:07]
Seton O'Connor
Fix the.
- [35:11]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
Tanking problem.

I
I.

Seton O'Connor
I, I think Robert. Right. No, you got, get it together. Call back Dakota and Kentucky. Hi, Dakota.
- [35:24]
I
Hey, what's up, Dan?
- [35:25]
Seton O'Connor
Hey, man.
- [35:26]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
Dan, I, I don't know what it.
- [35:27]
I
Is, but you cannot talk me out.
- [35:29]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
Of it not being a conspiracy. I don't know if it's because the NBA is, you know, blocked trades and.
- [35:37]
Seton O'Connor
It'S just been so why would they want Dallas to win the lottery?
- [35:42]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
If they, I assume there was a.
- [35:45]
I
Talk beforehand that maybe Luca, if they.
- [35:47]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
Let Luca go there, then that would.
- [35:50]
I
Help because the ratings have been down.
- [35:53]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
I'll listen to you guys talk about.
- [35:55]
Seton O'Connor
It, but suck it, Fritzi. All right, Once again, it's a guy.
- [35:59]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
Who gets it right there. By the way, Dakota, you call in anytime.
- [36:04]
Seton O'Connor
It's a federal crime to fix the lottery. Do you really want to run the risk?
- [36:11]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
Oh, in that case, don't do it.
- [36:13]
Dan Patrick
It'd be worth it. Like, if I were a Knicks fan, I would do a couple years in the pen to get Patrick Ewing. Come on.
- [36:19]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
Hey, that's against the law. You can't do that. Okay.
- [36:23]
Dan Patrick
Probably one of those nice prisons with tennis courts for Patrick Ewing. Sure.
- [36:31]
Seton O'Connor
Joe in Michigan. Hi, Joe. Hey, good morning, Dan. My buddy and I have an idea.
- [36:39]
I
That maybe can fix the NBA draft orders, selection and maybe, maybe tanking. Our idea is the NBA team with the most wins after being eliminated from the playoffs contention, they get the number one pick. So you can tank for a portion of the year, but once you're eliminated from the playoff race.
- [37:01]
Seton O'Connor
Yeah, I've talked about that, Joe. I've talked about it. Once teams are eliminated, how many wins do you have after that? And then that will be the draft order. So I brought that up to the commissioner as well. I don't know if there's a fair way to do it. I think they're trying to do what is the fairest way. I don't know if it, you know, once again, that might be semantics here, but you're giving these three teams 14 chance. I think what the NBA also did is those teams that aren't in the top four or five, they improve their odds a little bit. So it's not this drastic, the haves and the have nots. Because these teams that did play hard and maybe they didn't make the playoffs or they made the playoffs and they bowed out or maybe have somebody else's pick. I, I think that they're trying to make it so you can tank, but that doesn't mean you're going to benefit from tanking, because San Antonio. San Antonio wasn't trying to tank. You know, Victor Wembanyama had the blood clot. He had to sit down. Dallas just had a bunch of injuries. Yeah. Paulie.
- [38:16]
Dan Patrick
The NBA in 2019 changed the NBA draft lottery. It used to be if you're the worst team, you had the highest percentage. They changed it so the three worst teams had a similar percentage. So you couldn't make it any better for yourself in the last few weeks of the season.
- [38:30]
Seton O'Connor
Seth in West Virginia. Hi, Seth.
- [38:33]
I
Hey, Dan. Thanks for taking my call. 510, a soft. 240.
- [38:39]
Seton O'Connor
Soft.
- [38:43]
I
What about a tournament for all the teams that didn't make the playoffs? Like a draft tournament. So if you were, you know, the first team out of the playoff, you get a one seed and the winner of the tournament gets the first round or the first pick, the second place team gets a second pick. That way you're kind of rewarding some franchises that try to build but maybe are just one player away.
- [39:05]
Seton O'Connor
Yeah, I brought that up, too. I didn't bring it up to the commissioner, but, you know, can you do a round robin of the four worst teams? But then as a friend of mine who works with the NBA goes, okay, we're going to benefit the best player of the four worst teams. What's that say about the worst team? And then I go, eh, all right, but could you imagine if you had. Now, I don't think the players association would go for this. But if you said, hey, we have a final four, we have a bottom four, and you know, you'll have 1 versus 4 and 2 versus 3 in the seating, and then all of a sudden then you'll play for the right. For the number One pick. But then you're also going to have players who might not be on the team the next year. They'll be like, hell, no, I don't want him taking my job. You know, we got to lose this thing. Yes, Todd.
- [39:58]
Unknown
But if you're genuinely trying and you just are the worst team, no matter what you do in a tournament like that and you want the worst team should get the top player. You know, the best of the four are going to get rewarded, but they're already one of the four. Best of the worst, and they're going to have the best chance of getting the number one.
- [40:13]
Seton O'Connor
Yeah, but I have to incentivize you.
- [40:15]
Unknown
Yeah, but a team that's actually trying and has proven no matter what they did that they're the worst team, they weren't purposely losing. They're getting penalized for being the worst that year when they should be getting the top pick to have the best chance of building on something.
- [40:27]
Seton O'Connor
Is it penalized or penalized?
- [40:29]
Dan Patrick
Checking.
- [40:30]
Unknown
Maybe it's a penal code.
- [40:31]
Seton O'Connor

The main reason the Knicks will advance to the Eastern Conference finals is they're simply the better team. Jason Tatum just got hurt. Tom Thibodeau is out coaching Joe Missoula. Which one of those three is the main reason the Knicks will advance?
- [48:23]
Seton O'Connor
I. The Celtics are the better team, but they didn't play that way in the first two games. So they put themselves in this position. With the injury last night to Jason Tatum, I still think they can win this series. I do. But I. I don't think the Knicks have been given enough credit for coming back from 20 down in the first two games. They got roughed up over the weekend on Saturday. But then that performance last night, whether Tatum gets hurt or not, you know that. That was a great Knicks performance. Certainly by Jalen Brunson. Yes.
- [48:58]
Brendan Patrick Hughes
Is there something to that coaching point that Todd made though?
- [49:03]
Seton O'Connor
I think Joe Missoula probably takes the analytics and says this is who we are. We're going to shoot 60 three pointers and if we make X number of them, this is what you need to shoot from the floor from two point range. So the math works in your favor. They have an unbelievably deep, talented team. And I don't know if anybody in NBA history has ever put together a team with this many players who can shoot three pointers and make three pointers, but without Tatum, they'll be an obviously a tall task here, but you do have teams that rally when their superstar goes down. The question is how long can you keep that rally going? Yes, Paulie, I'd like to go back.

Dan Patrick
To the NBA draft lottery and suggest maybe a little Good idea, bad idea.
- [49:50]
Seton O'Connor
Okay.
- [49:51]
Dan Patrick
What if the NFL created an NFL draft lottery but it was smaller, it was only the worst four teams in the league that year. You now would have a new TV show, a new topic off the draft and you'd avoid any type of late season tanking and resting of players. So this year to have been the Titans, Jaguars, Giants and Patriots. Imagine if those four teams were in play for the number one pick and you had a TV show just like this and instead of always Rewarding the worst team. You have a little bit of drama to it, but it's not a massive lottery.
- [50:26]
Seton O'Connor
Like 12, 13 teams, I'm fine with that. But it never stays at 4, then it goes to 6 and then it goes to 8. I mean, that's just what we do.
- [50:34]
Dan Patrick
But let's say it was suggested or the NBA or the NFL entertained.
- [50:37]
Seton O'Connor
Well, if the commissioner would ever come on the show, then I would say, commissioner, have you ever thought about a lottery for the number one pick in the draft?
- [50:44]
Dan Patrick
There's a lot of upside for the NFL to do a four team lottery.
- [50:47]
Seton O'Connor
Maybe I can reach out to Greenie and say, when you have the commissioner on, why don't you ask? You can take credit for this, but how about a draft lottery for the number one pick? You can try that. What else do you have, Todd?

One other one. Do you like when select NFL Games of the 2025 schedule leak out days before the official release? A little wordy, but sure. Give us a little taste or. No, I like it revealed all at once. Talking about Wednesday night at 8 o' clock, the official reveal.
- [51:47]
Seton O'Connor
I think that each network gets to reveal one game and then you have. Okay. They interrupt the NFL draft in Green Bay to announce that on May 14th there will be the schedule release party. So they are announcing an announcement and then I got CBS's schedule already. I mean, I can find out all of these if I want to, but I don't. I, I would. If you're going to have a schedule release or reveal party, then, then wait for that. But if ESPN wants to say this is our game, NBC says first game of the season is going to be this. Fox has their great Amazon, all these streaming partners. You want to do one game, Great one game. But let's make it a celebration. Let's make it a party. It's like when you open up a gift when your kids say it's Christmas Eve, can we open up? Can we open up one gift? Just one. And then all of a Sudden you go, okay, can we do one more? Well, that's what the schedule releases. Just do one gift, not all of them. And if you have this build up to Wednesday night, then utilize that momentum. Yes, Todd. Anything else?

Not an exact. No, that was it with that. But not an exact analogy. But I remember leading up to one Hanukkah growing up, I was rummaging through gifts that weren't wrapped just yet, and I came across something that I really wanted. It was a police LEGO set. And I kept talking about it and hinting about it to my mom, knowing I was getting it because I saw it in one of the bags until she realized that I must have seen it, and I, like, ruined the whole surprise. And then she didn't actually give it to me for weeks because I basically looked in the room where I knew the unwrapped gifts were. I just wanted to share that little Hanukkah note.

Seton O'Connor
Okay. Maybe share that with your mom.
- [53:37]

Oh, she knows very well what happened.

Seton O'Connor
Okay.

When I was, like, seven.

Seton O'Connor
Okay. Yes.

Dan Patrick
Well, I kind of like the discipline. My mom there, he. He has to pay the price for a couple of weeks and not get the Lego set.

You didn't love that story.

Seton O'Connor
I didn't.

It didn't really match anything that we would talk to leading up to that story.

Seton O'Connor
No. But you turn your blinker on from the right lane. Your left blinker. Yes.

Oh, no, I do.

Yeah. I guess. 23 years.

Seton O'Connor
Yeah, I've. I. I think I've heard everything. But you're scarred. Absolutely.

You are a mom at a story. Is that. Was that the one that pushed it over the top?
- [54:30]
Seton O'Connor
When you. When your mom made you and your brother go back to the doctor to get a shot, even though you were told you didn't need a shot.
- [54:36]
Unknown
Just. We were about to go in the car and pull away. Oh, wait a second. Why do we have to go back inside? I spoke to the doctor. He thinks might be best to get the shot which I used to give right in the butt back in the. In the old days.
- [54:45]
Seton O'Connor
And then, you know, the rectal thermometer. Yeah.
- [54:48]
Unknown
Put a little Vaseline in there, and it's. And my mom did not have good aim. I was very painful. Once you get to junior high school, you shouldn't be taking the temperature that way anyway. But she said that's the only way to really get the accurate result.
- [54:57]
Seton O'Connor
Wait, you were in junior high and.

Your mom exaggerated a little bit? It definitely felt past the year because I would ask my friends about their experiences and they're like, what?

Ask your friends?

Don't you hate when your mom misses with the what? What did you do? Half the mom and his mouth you could do orally.

The best things in life are on the other side of difficult conversations. But if we're honest, most people run from them. Staying silent, missing chances and holding themselves back. I know this is true because I used to be like that until I realized that negotiation isn't a talent. It's a skill that anyone can learn. And once I did, everything changed. I went from people pleaser to confident communicator. And Now I teach Fortune 500 leaders and top executives how to do the same.
