You are listening to the Dan Patrick show on Fox Sports Radio. What a day. Yesterday and last night we spent some time talking about bam out of bio getting 83 on the Wizards. Jason Jackson, the voice of the Miami Heat will join us coming up here momentarily. Max Crosby going back to Las Vegas and the Ravens didn't take long. They went out and got Trey Hendrickson from the Bengals and it's a four year deal worth $112 million. If you're Joe Burrow, you're probably thinking Max Crosby going back to the Raiders. Then all of a sudden it's your former teammate Trey Hendrickson. He'll be in the division. You get to see him twice, you get to see Miles Garrett twice and T.J. watt twice. But that big deal with Trey Hendrickson and we speculated on where he might go. If you're the Raiders though, you've already look at your your free agency plan was operating as if Max Crosby was off the books. You know, you had to absorb Geno Smith's salary. You went out and spent a lot of money on your center, Tyler Lindenbaum, Linderbaum, Quay Walker, Nicobe Dean. So you're spending money. And other teams were affected because the Cowboys were looking at Max Crosby. They turned to Rashawn Gary and then Cincinnati with Trey Hendrickson and his negotiating leverage probably skyrocketed when Max Crosby was sent back to Vegas. But this Max Crosby deal, devastating I think for the Raiders because as great as he is, they don't want him back because they don't want to spend that kind of money because they're not ready to win. And you could send him and get two first round picks. The Ravens said, you know what? We were concerned about the long term durability. I don't know what long term is in the NFL. I'm assuming long term means like two years because I don't think they're going to be worried if Max Crosby can get up the steps, you know, when he's 45 years of age. 8773 DP show email address dp@danpatrick.com Twitter handle @DP Show we say good morning to our radio affiliates, iHeartRadio, Fox Sports Radio and those watching on Peacock in the NBC Sports Network. Todd, is Jason Jackson going to join us? Coming up in about 15 minutes. That is correct. Okay. All right. Just want to make sure I got the traffic here. It's busy day. I know you're working hard. The Max Crosby story. Dinah Rossini was going to join us now. She's talking to Max Crosby. So she'll have an update for us coming up. Well, when she joins us, I think next hour, but she said, I can't do it. I'm going to be talking to Max. And I said, hold off. We welcome whatever he has to say after being sent back to Las Vegas. All right, pull question there, Seaton. What are we going to go with an hour? Who we've got up there right now, More surprising, the Crosby trade being called off. Bam. Dropping 83 or Italy beating the United States of America in baseball. Okay, so I would say Bam, getting 83. Bam. Getting 83 has 42% of the vote. And then it's a tie for second between the Crosby trade and Italy beating the U.S. all right. I would probably put Team USA losing to Italy way down on the list. Max Crosby, that trade, that shocked. I think that shocked a lot of people yesterday. The whole idea of Italy beating the United States was a punchline. Like we were, we were laughing about it, about the idea of, of Italy actually. What, they even have a team? Who knew that they even had a team? I'm shocked that people are. Are not surprised at that. Yeah, but they got a lot of players who play in the major leagues, so, I mean, they got a chance. So far, the only thing that the Italian team had really been known for is having an espresso machine in their dugout. Other than that, it was just like, ah, yeah. So anyway, usa, Japan, we all know how this is going. Well, maybe after the fact, I'm not surprised after watching them play last night, then I'm, I'm not surprised, but yesterday I would have been surprised. Yes. I'm a journalist here. All right, got it. Yes. Poll question for hour two is going to be what Poll question for our tomb? Well, actually, you know, we just got our one up there, so we're gonna let that breathe for a minute. We also have two here from Todd the Ravens, did the Raiders dirty or the right thing? I'm gonna say both, because if they realized that there was some kind of structural damage that would concern them and you can rescind the trade, you can send him back, and you could still keep your two first round picks this year, next year, they did the right thing. Now, ethically, though, it sounds strange to say that with the NFL, but ethically with teams and how you deal with one another. I'm assuming that, you know, he's not, he doesn't have a healthy knee at that position. The way he plays coming off surgery, I just don't know. You can say, hey, we're concerned about long term durability. And then all of a sudden you're done. I don't know if it was buyer, buyer remorse, you know, could have been that. It's like when you buy a house and then all of a sudden you go, oh my God, did we overspend? And then you get the inspection and then you say to the person inspecting, could you please find something so we get out of this? Yeah, Paulie. I think it's irony Trey Hendrickson missed a good chunk of the season. I think 10 games with a hip and core muscle injury. Max Crosby was injured, wanted to keep playing, and his team shut him down when he wanted to keep playing. The Ravens aren't concerned about Trey Hendrickson's long term durability. Apparently, they'll waive the medical. Yes. So if Trey has a hard time walking after four years, the Ravens won't be as concerned, but they will be concerned about max Crosby. All right, 877-3-DP show email address dpdanpatrick.com Twitter handle @DP See Alfred in Chicago leads us off this second hour. Hi, Alfred. Hey, Dan. First time caller 5 11, 200. So this critical reaction to Bam's 83 kind of reminds me of the critical reaction to Roger Maris's 61 and 61. He wasn't supposed to break Babe Ruth single season record. Mickey Mantle was also Marist did it in extra regular season games as compared with the Babe. So for decades, Maris's record had an asterisk after it. Anyway, I'd love to hear what you and the Dennis have to say about that. Thank you very much. I love the show. Thank you, Alfred. I don't think there'll be an asterisk. There might be a mental one attached to it by the way it played out. And once again, we'll talk to Jason Jackson, who's the voice of the Miami Heat because they were going out of their way. The game was out of reach. It was not in doubt. And they were trying to make sure that Bam Adebayo would get more opportunities, which he did. Turbo in Buffalo. Hey, Turbo. Hey, Dan. Thanks for taking my call. A couple interesting stat lines Todd was saying earlier. That one, they just bring a guy out to follow him. Tristan Ukovich. I'm looking at my robot machine here. He Played seven minutes. He had five personal fouls. And on top of that, look at Bama Statland 24. He missed 23 shots and then 3.7 for 22. And then the free, the three point line, 36 for 40. So 43 free throw attempts. I remember you. I don't remember, but when you played in high school, I remember getting to the free throw line one too many times and I started to feel embarrassed. Like this is ridiculous. I never felt embarrassed to go to the free throw line ever. And yeah, it's a lot of shots. It's a lot of free throws. Seven for 22 from three point range. Yeah. Paulie. I'm looking at the box score of Wizards Heat, which I would never have done ever in my life. And the amount of players who you would know from both these rosters is shocking that there's no Will Riley, Trey Johnson, Anthony Gill, Myron Gardner, Pelly Larson. I mean, they're just nobodies. Yep. Jeez. Yeah. Where's the star power? Did Trey Young play? No, he. He watched this one because he would have answered with 70. Oh, you would have? Yeah. That's too bad. Yeah, he had a couple of fouls to give. John in Illinois. Hi, John. What's on your mind? Hey, Dan. 63265. Just want to say you're great and you're staying in your lane when it comes to this topic because I think scoring 83 is scoring 83. However you do it, you get it. And I'm a huge Kobe Bryant fan and it hurts, but he's always going to be remembered as a great. Bam will probably just be remembered in a second place person. You know, Bam has had a pretty good career. Went to the NBA finals twice. It's a good career. 4 time all defensive player. It's just weird where you go, man, he's a great defensive player and he scored the second most points in the history of the NBA. Cody in Texas. Hi, Cody. What's on your mind? Hey, Dan. You know, I think Bam, you know, it's a great accomplishment, but, you know, looking at two separate things, you know, whether it's Cody's 81 or Kobe's 81 or Bam's 83. You know, know, it's a different conversation than what's the most impressive, you know, to me, the most impressive of all time was LeBron's game five back in 07 against Detroit. Detroit was easily the best defensive team, you know, arguably with the spurs that year. But, you know, from three minutes until the fourth quarter in the game to double overtime. He scored 25 straight points and won that game. That is easily more, know, impressive than Toby's 81 or even Bam's 83. Yeah, it's. It's hard to compare. What did Isaiah do on a bad ankle against the lakers in the NBA Finals? Did he score, like 20, 23 points? I think in a quarter, he scored 23. They have had 43 in the game. Yeah, yeah, that was pretty impressive on a bad ankle against the Lakers in Los Angeles. But there's been so many great performances. And, yes, you know, LeBron with what he did, I can look what Michael Jordan did against the Celtics in the Boston Garden. I mean, he lost the game, but that's where everybody in the NBA, especially Larry Bird, realized there's a new sheriff in town. In fact, I think Larry even said that. So when you're talking about historical performances, that was a chain, literally changing of the guard. It went from. It's Magic. Larry, Larry, Magic. No, it's Mike's. And Mike never looked back. So if you look at historical performances, that's when Mike and the Bulls put the Celtics and everybody in the NBA on notice. This is. This is just numbers. This is math. That was something that was actually tangible. You saw something that changed the NBA that day. Yeah, Marvin. And it's the perfect time to do it because there's no NFL season. So if he did this in early November, I'm not even sure if we. It would have been a mention. No, it would be mentioned if he put up 83. No, you said. I said mentioned. But it wouldn't be like a full segment. Yes, it would. It's 83 points. I would have worked in the rundown Heat, wizards. It's still 83. You're right. It's still real to me. Damn it. You're right. But just this time of year. Oh, my gosh. Here is Bam. Out of bio on when he realized he was having a special night. Probably when I had 45 at the half, obviously my teammates was very geeked at halftime. So for me, it was just remaining calm and remaining locked in and understanding. Like, I can go for something special now. I didn't think it was gonna be 83, but it's surreal because, like I said, man, to. To be able to do it at home in front of my mom, in front of my people, in front of the home fans. Like, this is a. This is a mark in history that will forever be remembered. Yeah, he had so many points, he forgot how many points he had at halftime. He gave himself 45 at halftime. I think he had 43. Yeah. Paulie, this is not a direct comparison, but back in the late 80s, John Stockton had the record with 27 assists in an NBA game. That was the all time record at the time. A year later it got passed by Scott Skiles, a guy not in danger of going to the hall of Fame. It's a little apples and oranges, but it's a little the same. He passed Stockton and Stockton probably loved that record. I don't think Stockton cared about any. He had the. Actually Stockton had the top three games for assists all time and Scott Skiles passed him a year later. Yeah, Scott Skiles just celebrated a birthday here a couple of days ago. Gritty, gutty. Scotty, you loved him. You loved him. I liked him at Michigan State. He had his socks pulled up all the way to his knees. He was never fast enough, quick enough. He wasn't anything other than he was just gritty and gutty. He's a non time all star, but he has the all time assist record for a game. That's cool. Like a. Marvin's holding his head when I say, you know, gritty, gutty. Probably first one in, last one to leave. Gosh, probably. Son of a coach, NBA players. Gritty and gutty. I'm sorry, this has to just be a little bit of talent. Gosh, it kills me, especially when it's like white point guards, super athletes. Oh my God. TJ McConnell, he's gritty and gutty. He went to Arizona. He did something before, right? Peyton Pritchard scoring. What? Yeah. Gritty and gutty. Oh my goodness. Was Mark Jackson gritty and gutty? Just gritty. Yeah, he couldn't get the other half of it. He wasn't gutty. Nope. Now if he was white, he would have been gritty and good. Oh, oh, yeah, yeah, that's true. Yeah. You can't be black and be gritty and gutty. That's true. Like, oh, it's just natural ability. He's just natural. Is there a black player who's gritty and gutty? Marvin Rondo. You know what? I don't think it's for point guards. You got to be like a Power 4. You got to be like Bo Outlaw to be gritty and dirty. I think you got to be on that level. You got to be Clarence Weatherspoon. How about Tyrone Tea Time Hill? Come on. All first team. Gritty and gutty. All first team. Smile. Yeah, it was. Damn, you happy. He had, you know that the actress who was in White Lotus this last season. Who had the part in her teeth. Forget what her name is. Last name, maybe. Wood. That Tyrone Tea Time Hill. The. He had kind of the Lincoln Tunnel there. That old comparison. The girl from White Lotus and Tyrone Hill. We're doing that again. Yeah. Yes. Seaton. Did we mention Marcus Mop? That is a gritty, gutty player right there. I like it. You know who I think doesn't get enough credit for being gritty and gutty, too? Aside from Marcus Small, Jimmy Butler. Jimmy Butler is a gritty, gutty player. Might be too talented to be gritty. Gutty. Early Bulls. Gritty. Gutty. He might want to be gritty. Gutty. I think he. I think he is gritty and gutty. I agree with Paulie. Maybe early Bulls. Gritty. Gutty. And then all of a sudden, it's like, man, he's really good. Yeah. Like Kawhi might have been gritty and gutty when he first got to San Antonio. Then you started showing talent, man. Yeah. Yeah. Yes. Marvin. Marcus. Smart. I'm not sure if I could put him in the gritty and gutty. What? Because he was. I am. He was a lottery pick. I can't give you gritty and gutty, and you're picked seventh overall. You could. You could be a lottery pick and be gritty and gutty. Well, I don't know. Maybe he regressed in and kind of morphed into a gritty, gutty guy. Okay. Are we saying lottery picks don't do the dirty work? Generally. But I'm not. I don't want you to be greedy and gutty. Is the seventh pick. Yeah. Paul, the actress's name from White Lotus, Amy Lou Wood. Yeah. And she. Her teeth. Yeah. She's. They're like independent contractors. All her teeth. She. She was great in White Lotus. Yes. Smoking. Her teeth. Are independent contractors. Yeah. They appear to be doing their own thing separate from each other. You see, kids now that want to have the space between their teeth, they aspire to this. Yes. Is this. Yes. I think so. I think it's a thing. I think. I think. I think they're having a gap in your teeth. Yeah. Yeah. What did I just pay $20,000 for over the past five years? Holy cow, Dan. I know, I know. Okay, let me take a break. Jason Jackson. Let Jason know he's got to defend this performance. My Bam out of bio. How dare you score 83 the way you did it. It's still real to you. We'll be back after this.

The Internet turned on him. If I could press a button and rewind it all, I would. But what happened to Clayton? After the show made even bigger headlines. It began as a one night stand and ended in a courtroom with Clayton at the center of a very strange paternity scandal. The media is here. This case has gone viral.

Multiple reports have the Ravens reworking the contract of Lamar Jackson. Sources say the restructuring with Jackson creates about $40 million in salary cap space for this upcoming season, similar to what Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen have done this off season for their teams. Jason Jackson, voice of the Miami Heat, was on the call on radio last night. By the way, before I get to Jack's, there was some logic that crept in last night with the Washington Wizards broadcast. Their announcer, Chris Miller suggested that the Miami Heat were prepared to take Bam Adebayo out and out of respect for Kobe Bryant, and that didn't happen, of course, and we welcome in Jason Jackson. What should we remember about this performance that I had to make the call on free throws? I think that's the only thing that you should have to worry about. Daniel Lovely flannel this morning by the way. There in Maine, 80 degrees here in South Florida with my Bam T shirt on. I think the thing that we have to do and I'm not sure if you're willing to do this at this stage in life. Dan we have to step back sometimes. Remember, we cover sports. It's just sports. It's fun. It was funky, it was weird, it was cool. And then we move on like no.1. We won another game. So the Miami Heat have won six in a row, moved out of the play in spot. That's all that really matters. The main thing is the main thing, it's winning. But for Bam, I think it's going to be one of the most memorable things in his life because he grew up in a single wide trailer with a single mother in North Carolina dreaming about Kobe Bryant and had a really cool moment as a guy who has done everything right, who doesn't really focus on scoring, who made his craft in this league as a defender and rebounder, who took the mantle from Alonzo Mourning, Dwyane Wade and Udonis Haslam as a culture carrier for this organization and has been to the finals twice and hasn't been able to stay at the mountaintop just yet in those areas and then also takes on the responsibility of being the lead force in the community for organization. That part of it all feels good. This is a, this is one of the first let's put air quote great Heat players who I have been able to so I'll make it about me now. Dan who I've been able to see from draft night to all the way through. When I arrived here in 2004, Dwyane Wade was already a player. LeBron James came to Miami, already was a player. And so this is, it's just fun for the fan base. Anything outside of that, it just kind of filters into this hater mode. We didn't have social media in 2006 when Kobe went for 81, so I'm not sure the response probably would have had its level of in it as well. There's literally no video. We have a sheet of paper with 100 on it for Wilt. I'm sure old Knicks fans are still trying to wonder what happened to them that night. Let me just say my good friend Chris Miller Go to my good friend Chris Miller for a moment. I will filibuster sir. I will say this. What were you pressing full court and triple teaming the man for in the second half of the fourth quarter? It created. It created what probably you're not loving as the basketball purists that I know the proud son of Mason, Ohio is presenting right now. Well, no, I keep telling Everybody it's still 83. Okay? It's still at the, at the end of the day, 10 years, 20 years, it's still 83. I did think about this. How do you think Kobe, if he were still with us, would have viewed that performance last night? The way there was intentionally fouling, keeping him in the game. The game's out of reach. How do you think Kobe would have viewed that performance? Kobe had a level of rancor that would have possibly finger wagged it, but I think Kobe would have liked Bam and Bam's game overall from a night in, night out basis. So there might have been a little love there. You know, the gold medal club from Team usa. You never know how those things go. As I've gotten older, Dan, I will, I will turn 53 years as winter turns to spring. I've decided that I am in search of joy all of the time. All of the time. So when you're calling a game like this, obviously you can't anticipate on a Tuesday night against the Wizards that something unique and special is going to occur. So I say thank you. Idris Bam out of bio. And by the way, Bam hates when you use his given name, but I don't get to say it enough, so I, I thought I'd throw it out for you. Okay. Did you talk to Spoelster about his philosophy down the stretch when he realized that he had a chance to surpass Kobe? I am on the set live at a about 200 yards away when that happens, Dan. But it was asked of him and it was aired on Heat Live last night. And I think he gave the most beautiful answer in the sense that for that guy, for what he's meant for nearly a decade, to the head coach and to the franchise, for those that don't watch Miami Heat basketball every single night, you're. You're not going to connect with this fiber, right? This is about a guy that took the torch from a guy who played for 20 years in Udonis Haslam and the best player in history in Dwyane Wade and put the entire organization and what it means and the Heat culture that makes everybody roll their eyes and all of that on his shoulders. He went to Kentucky just like the president of the organization, Pat Riley, like all of it and does a beautiful job with, in his own way, you know, he's not necessarily a big in your face rah rah Barker, but the way that he goes about his craft as a World class defender, a outstanding if not elite rebounder and a guy who's developed. You've watched it over nine seasons. Developed his game into the modern big man. Got to go out and knock it down from 23ft. Dynamic man. When he came out of Kentucky, there was no way I would have thought Bear would be a three point shooter, but has become super serviceable and does whatever is asked of him. I think this is the thing that's most warming about it. He thinks about scoring, least from the dribble handoff to the actual assist. He's setting up other guys offensively to score. And so it just, I, I'm leaving it as what I assume is a one off like I was. But you. Okay. But your quarter was fantastic. That was real basketball. That was just him lighting guys up and. And then when he got to halftime and they already had his career high plus it was, it was wild to where it could go. Okay. Being the basketball purist that you are, take yourself out of, take your Miami Heat headphones off and look at that in the last five minutes of the game. Right. Would you have a problem? Because you're the anomaly. Like you're all in. You saw history, you saw something great. The reaction I've gotten this morning is people are really upset, but I think part of that has to do with Kobe. But let's just look at the actual basketball style that was played in the last five minutes or so. Yeah, I probably, I, if I was calling it on the other side, I would have been snarky ish with a hint of. But it's still competition. You got to try to stop him, you know, so that's where I always get. Because I do get like if it's a Celtics Heat game and you know, Brown or Tatum's going nuts and they're still in and the game's gone and there's three minutes to go. I note that there are sometimes special moments and if you're gunning for something, I'm fine with that. I tend to be. But I, I will a little, some, some serious village of Evendale snark will be coming out fully from my throat. No doubt. He's Jason Jackson, the voice of the Miami Heat. Greatest NBA performance you've ever witnessed, whether regular season, postseason. Did I have to be in person? Did I have to be in person for. Is that the key? No, no. I will tell you. You know what? There's two of them. I'll tell you. When San Antonio closed out in 99, that that was it. Was it Was not a. It was a moment more than a performance. I'll give you the performance in a moment because Avery knocked down that last jumper baseline, if I'm remembering that correctly. The only reason I wouldn't remember is because you and Stuart Scott would push me out of the way, and I couldn't do any SportsCenter hits. So thank goodness for ESPN News. Yeah, thank you. Thank you, News for giving me some time to talk about these things I'm allegedly covering. You and Cindy Brunson. Didn't see the reference coming. Dan, thank you for that focus. They're locking in. Lock it in. I'm a pro, but the best performance I've ever seen was game six, LeBron James in Boston. You win that game or it's not. You know, by the way, you gotta win the game. Right. Because it doesn't allow for the. The lore of him becoming a champion to even present itself in the appropriate way. But on the road, 40 plus nine rebounds, handful of assists, that scowl looking underneath the brow that forever hangs on the walls in Miami, that thing was that. That was just. It was literally like watching a lion walk the Serengeti and eat everything along the way. But that was pretty astonishing, by the way. That has to. Watching someone score that much and. And the willingness of the Wizards to put that man on the line as much as they did. Again, it was. It was astonishing in a different way. And so I don't want to take anything from. From Bam, because Bam has given us so much is the broadcast, going to the Basketball hall of Fame, the dunk to pass. LeBron's the handle game record, the Bam, the Bam slam, which was all. First of all, always tasty. All right, you want some pumpernickel with that one? All right. And you might want to toast it. You might want to listen. And that was the thing. After that, I will. I'll admit this only to you and your illustrious audience here on Peacock. And the great thing about being here with you is there's literally a peacock outside my window screaming all morning long. And then I'm on Peacock with you. It's the best on brand. But I started thinking about this, and you've known me since I was a. A young, young adult. I. I lean towards fun and funny. It's what I. It just. It provides me with my sustenance. But after he passed LeBron, I was like, okay, now you're calling stuff that might play forever. Let's just kind of. Let's get it right down the middle. And. And it was tough Because I. I've listened back, and the moment for 83 happened at the free throw line anyway, so it wasn't going to provide for this full, beautiful baritone that I've. That I've. That I've cherished and presented through bourbon and cigars all these years. It didn't. It didn't have that full moment there. Yeah, you got to love that. The Bam slam. Which episode you like. Oh, yeah, of course. But you. You got cheated. You needed a jumper, you needed a slam. You needed something not free throws. You know, when you're calling something like that, let's make it about bam. That's not okay. Yeah, it's all right. By the way, you know what you need on the wall back there, buddy? I want you to hop on MiamiHeatStore.com right now. For $83, you can get yourself a authentic BAM jersey. Now, if we could. Seaton, would you go back there by the bar area? Yeah, go ahead. Get that. Oh, you already have a Bam. Do you already have it? Yeah. Oh, you have everything. What was I thinking? Yeah. Autographed. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Come on. Yeah. You know what I got for you right there? Hot Bam sandwich. Yeah. Yeah. I think it says from one score to another, I thought it says, if you reach, I teach. I thought that's what that said right there. See glorious Vanna White work out of you, by the way. Ways. Thank you, Satan. By the way, that whole story about me playing against Stuart Scott, that was supposed to be in the documentary. It didn't make it in the documentary. Who had the audacity to cut. They wanted me to tell the story, and I said, no, let somebody else. And they said, oh, we're going to get Jason Jackson to tell the story. And then it doesn't even make it. No, I don't think I was in it at all, by the way. Booyah. I'm here to cheer you, my man. I'm here to boo you, man. All right. Yeah. Good luck with the next game. An encore performance. Listen, how about this? In honor of BAM's number 13, $13 tickets to Bucks heat tomorrow night in paradise, where it will be 80 plus DE. And not a low of 36 like you'll enjoy there in May. Why. Why do you do this? No, no, no, no. I just. July and August, when you're crying. When you're crying. No, baby, that's when I. That's when I sweat. The. The weight goes. They get that water, the bourbon. The only time Dan comes to Miami is if LeBatard calls. I. I can't. I can't get that man down here at all. That is true. Yeah. That is true. Yeah, but you. But darkness remains your weakness, I'll tell you that. Oh, yeah. Hello, darkness, my old friend. It's Jason, damn it. Yeah, it's Jacks. If you're nasty. If you're nasty, next time he scores 83, I'm gonna have you back on the show. Okay? Yeah. It's been three years, Dan, so. Oh, my God. I wasn't. I wasn't counting, but I could go back in my phone. Fritz, he hit me in during the finals in 23. Yeah. It's very nice of you guys to have me on that's. Let's all say goodbye to Jay Jacks, Jason Jackson, everybody's waving to you. Booyah. Peace out.

You would be surprised. Who is the second favorite to win the defensive player of the year? Todd, I'll start with you. Who has the second best odds to be the defensive player of the year? Trey Hendrickson has a lot. Trey Hendrickson, Satan. How about Miles Garrett? He's one. Oh, he's one. How about Max Crosby? He's two. What? Max Crosby is second and then followed by Micah Parsons, Aiden Hutchinson and Will Anderson Jr. III. That's aggressive. Didn't they say he just failed his physical? Yeah, yeah. Just felt we don't even know where. We don't know where he's playing next year. I don't even know what he's doing. Yeah, pretty crazy. Tim in Illinois. Good morning, Tim. What's on your mind today? Hey, Dan. First time a long time. Five nine, one, 76. Wanna talk a little WBC here, World Baseball Classic? Of course I want the USA to win, but I want to give a shout out to Sam Antonacci who grew up in Springfield, Illinois, who is the shortstop for the Italian team. And I can't imagine the adrenaline that was going through him. He grew up these USA guys, his idols as he was growing up. But the adrenaline running through him as he circles the bases when he hit a two run home were in the second inning last night. I mean, I'm 62 years old. I stood in my living room and cheered for the kid. It was just awesome. That's great. If Italy wins tonight against Mexico, Italy and the United States advance. If Mexico wins and scores five or More runs. Mexico and Team USA advance. If Mexico wins and scores four runs or less, Mexico and Italy advance. Thanks for the phone call, Tim. Tony and Rochester. Hi, Tony. Hey, Dan, thanks for taking my call. Long time, Couple time. Just wanted to mention on Bam Adebayou, if you look at the average age of the starting lineup that he played against, it's. It's 20 years old. And you know, it's kind of a confluence here of where the NBA is at in terms of tanking and playing too many games. And I think a thing like this where an all Defensive player scores 83 points is kind of bound to happen. And if you look at the way those 20 year old guys were playing defense, they're not used to playing defense in the NBA yet. And they were getting a lot of fouls called against them. Well, that's a lot of false. And he shot, you know, when you're going to the free throw line 43 times. But I don't know if we did this with any other scoring performance where we looked at the average age of the team that that player played against. I just, it's still 83 points and I, I don't want to lose sight of that. Now we can talk about what happened in the last couple of minutes. I have a problem with that. But I don't agree that out of respect to Kobe, you take Bam Adebayo out. I mean, Kobe may not like his. And it's not even a record, it's the second highest scoring mark. I'm sure that he'd be like, hey, you know, I would never come out if it was the other way around. If, if Michael Jordan had 81 and Kobe had a chance to beat him, what would he do? He would certainly go out and try to beat him. So let's just be fair to the situation here. And I don't know if we are because I think we have a problem with. It's Bam out of bio. And he did it against the Wizards and something was nefarious there in the closing minutes there, the number of free throws that he took. He's not a great score and I understand all of that. He still scored 83. Yeah, Paulie, I saw a few people on Twitter, NBA media people, not random people that said Bam Adebayo would have looked awesome. If he took himself out with 80 points. He would have looked awesome. He probably would have today. He probably would have been lauded for doing that. But that's not natural to competitors. Bam Adebayo doesn't think he's second to Anybody. And to expect him or to think that he might take himself out because I want to defer to Kobe Bryant's memory, that's not very realistic. I don't think Roger Maris didn't. Nobody said that. Hey, did you think you should take yourself out so you didn't pass Babe Ruth? I don't. I don't think so. And Babe played in 154 games. Roger did it in 162. They're competitors. I don't think you'd get go, man. I'm competing, competing, competing. Now I'm not going to compete now. I'm going to take myself out of the game. Would it have been a cool gesture? Yes, it would have been, but I'm not going to put that on him. Yes, Marvin. And also for a guy like Bam out of bay, who's not a score by nature, he'll never have this opportunity ever again. He was hotter than fish grease in the first half. Like, you know what? His coach, his teammates, come on, let's try to do as much as we can. I saw, hey, Bama bios got 62 points. I was like, man, what a night for him. Wait, he's in the third quarter. I was like, man, he can do it. I was rooting for him also. Yeah, Paulie, I want to go back to what you said. I think that's a great comparison. The Roger Maris, Babe Ruth thing. If you watch that movie 61 on HBO, that was part of the movie. You shouldn't be passing Babe Ruth. It should be. It should be Mickey Mantle. You shouldn't be doing this. Who are you? You're new to this team. That's a great comparison. Lucas in Texas. Hi, Luke. What's on your mind? Hey, Dan. Good morning. Good morning. Two quick things for you. Number one, first off, this is just begging for judge Dan Patrick to hold a sport court ruling. But, you know, I'll wait for that judgment. The second thing related to the Bam out of bio situation, it kind of reveals to me, like, the psychology of sports fans, both good and bad, where we just, like, we become gatekeepers that say, the one that I saw, the one that I was invested in, the player that I covered or whatever, he has to be the best. I think that's part of what goes into the Jordan, LeBron stuff, the Roger Maris, Babe Ruth. Because of who we're invested in, who were actively watching, we have. We have to say that one has to be the best. Because I haven't seen anything better. Even though historically there might be a better one. I would tell all the Kobe fans, calm down. His legacy is not in trouble. He is a top five or ten NBA player all time and it's one statistical difference. So just something unique about how sports fans kind of become fanatics. Yeah, and great points there, Lucas. You know, we become territorial because with some people, no one could ever surpass Michael Jordan. You'd have people who might not think anybody could surpass Bill Russell, Babe Ruth. I mean, we, we, we kind of climb that mountain and we plant our flag there. Got to evolve. Got to be open minded at least. Diana Rossini. She'll join us coming up next after speaking to Max crosby. Hello, I'm U.S. transportation Secretary Sean Duffy.
