I turned off news altogether. I hate to say it, but I don't trust much of any.
Kevin Millar
It's the rage bait.
Dan Patrick
It feels like it's trying to divide people.

I'm exhausted and I didn't play. Whoo. Six hours, 39 minutes of baseball and it ended with Freddie Freeman late at night. And it sounded like this little delivers Freeman. It's one high in the air straightaway. Center field. Marshall at the wall, gone. Freddie Freeman, Mr. World Series Ends the marathon at midnight. That's courtesy of AM570, the Dodgers Radio Network.

Kevin Mallah, former player and MLB network analyst, he was at the game last night. He'll join us coming up. Reggie Miller will stop by in about 20 minutes or so. Much has been made of the Dodgers relievers, but those relievers were incredible. Last night you had nine pitchers. They combined to work 13 and a third innings of one run ball. That's the most relievers ever used in a world series. And then, I mean, Will Klein was incredible picking up the win with four scoreless innings. Clayton Kershaw may have gotten the biggest out of his career. He may have bases loaded and he gets out. Maybe he never pitches again. That would be his last appearance. And if he doesn't pitch again, then that means that they've won the World Series. But he. He got the out. I was probably more nervous than Clayton was, and he's out there pitching. I wasn't as nervous as his wife while she's watching, but Fox was cutting away to her. But that's one of those moments where I just wanted to see him get out of the inning. That's all. But if he didn't and they didn't win, then, you know, I. I didn't have a rooting interest in that way. When you get to extra innings, it's just like, give me something, give me content, give me drama. And you certainly saw that with Freddie Freeman. And if you get that nickname, Mr. World Series, that's pretty good nickname. Mr. October. Jeter was Mr. November. But Freddie Freeman, Mr. World Series. Kevin Mala won a World series championship with the 04 Red Sox. The MLB Network analyst, and you can see him with Ryan Dempster. That'll be MLB Network every day starting at 5 Eastern, covered the World Series. How do you feel today?
Kevin Millar
I feel amazing. We've had a great night here. We all came up to my room. Danny. I had Ryan Dempster, we had Mark DeRosa, Team USA manager, had a buddy coming down. But I'm gonna tell you, you didn't realize we were going to be there for 18 innings. It kept getting better and better and better. And I want to ask you one question. Is, is Shohei Ohtani AI because what he does on the field doesn't make sense. I think we all just sit here and go, yep, just gonna go back to the computer board. He'll go oppo apple taco crazy.
Dan Patrick
I think it's gotten to the point where they're not going to pitch to him. You can't.
Kevin Millar
Like we were sitting there last night and it was so fascinating because, you know, Mark was playing. If I was the bench coach, and what would you do here? And would you take out Kirk to pinch run? And there's so many decisions before they happen. Right before we all play armchair quarterback. Fascinating. Yeah, you have to. And then you're sitting here, you walking him to a former MVP in Mookie Betts. And then if you want to get by him, then you got another former MVP, Mr. World Series. So it's fascinating and how you do it. I just got to walk him. He's proven to you.
Dan Patrick
But has he gotten to the Barry Bonds status when it comes to. You just can't pitch to him.
Kevin Millar
You just can't because you think you can. And even when he walked, you know that last at bat when it wasn't just put him on. You see the stress, though. Like, this poor pitcher is trying to not. Not throw. Strike. C field fan. But like, we are. If I tell you, Danny, hey, stay away. And then you just, like, leave one curveball up. You know, it's like, it might be embarrassing. And that's what he can do to you, Dan. You know that? Like, you'll get embarrassed. A home runs. A home run. Then I'll put you in the parking lot. And when you're in the last row of the. Of the bleachers, and you and I are sitting back there with the $900 ticket these days, and usually the home runs kind of go, oh, yeah, who's going to catch it? And now they go like this. Heads up in the parking lot, guys. Yeah, there's a ball bouncing. It just doesn't make sense.
Dan Patrick
Scherzer can't get away with that pitch. Maybe a younger Scherzer can, but you, like, they're just places where the other home run. I got a terrible pitch. Right. If I'm making a mistake, my mistake is never going to be across the plate.
Kevin Millar
Yeah. It's funny because, you know, when you get to group text, you're trying to. There's 4,000 different things. And John Smolson. I was. All of us were on this text, and he's kind of like, they're pitching him not so good. He is amazing. But you do have to be careful, you know? And there's this old story, like, you know, I told Ryan, when we face Barry Bonds, everybody walks Barry Bonds. I said, just throw the four seamer. Just go after him. Let's see what he has. Well, he had it, you know, a few pitches later, Ryan was coming in. He's like, thanks for that one. He could hit. That's what happens, though. You know that you and I are sitting there and we're watching this game. Like, are they going to walk me again? So they walk. No, just go at him a little bit. Maybe just a little bit. There's no little bit like in the World Series. In this kind of a moment, you're just going to have to say, mookie Betts is going to have to beat us.
Dan Patrick
Yeah. And I started to wonder about the impact that this will have on tonight's game because Ohtani's pitching. So you play 18 innings. Most pitchers aren't doing anything prior to that, that night that they're going to be pitching. This is where you cement a legacy. If you're Ohtani, if He goes out there and throws five quality innings. I mean, we might be looking back on this, you know, 10, 15 years from now and telling our kids, grandkids, we did see the greatest performance in baseball history.
Kevin Millar
It is. There's not words. You don't know what word to use. And Yamamoto going in there to warm up, like, for him to come down. Whatever you need me to do. Like, you got goosebumps when you saw him walk to the bullpen yellow like Ohtani. There was a statue. Seven for seven, his last with five home runs and two doubles. Like, D Row looked at me. Jerosa goes, we watching the Lily World Series, like, these are numbers. To hit a big league home run in the postseason is big. And now we start hearing, like, these numbers. Like, George Springer has, you know, 27 postseason home runs. And you're like watching Ohtani make this look like a video game. It's not that easy, guys. I want everybody to understand that it's not that easy. And the $750 million contract that we all sat back going, good Lord, have mercy. He's almost underpaid. He should have been paid 2.7 billion, right?
Dan Patrick
It's not your money. No.
Kevin Millar
You and I, I'll give a percentage of the team. My goodness gracious.
Dan Patrick
Who would you want up in a clutch situation? Big Poppy or Shohei?
Kevin Millar
Oh, big Poppy, brother. I. I mean, I only can speak from just sharing with the guy and, and loving the guy and just understanding what he did for us in games four and five. Like, hey, just come on and get on my back. I'm gonna go deep off Quantrell and then we're gonna go have a 12 pitch bag against Loisa. Thank you. We'll head to New York, game six. Now that's a great question. Listen, Ohtani, what he's doing now is just, I mean, stupid, right? We all. Poppy didn't get out in 2013, it felt. And Poppy didn't get out with us when we needed it. Every big rbi, I would take David Ortiz. Final answer.
Dan Patrick
I don't know if showering him, you know, being in the shower with him has anything to do with his performance at the plate, but I'll leave that up to you and Poppy. Must be a special relationship you have there. We're talking. Kevin Millar, MLB NETWORK Analyst all right. How do the Blue Jays get back in this?
Kevin Millar
I think they. They have shown everybody they punch back. They punch back. You know, you sit back even on game one when they face Snell. We're sitting there in Toronto, man, The Dodgers, I mean, they just, I mean, the Blue Jays really don't have a chance, you know, I mean, yeah, they have a chance, but you know, they come in as. There's an underdog, there's a favorite, there's an underdog, no doubt, Right. Blake Snell is giving up a run in Postseason starts and 14 straight, he's starting the game and you sold them. Battle, battle, battle. And then boom. And they punch back, right? And you saw him last night. Edmond has a big air, obviously. Alejandro Kirk, if you don't have a man crush on him, Dan Patrick, then you're not a sports fan. If you don't think you can get in the box, spread out, get low to the base. There's simple movement, just a little bit of a shoulder lean and his barrel and his bat just stays right through here, this plane. He will rifle stuff, foul. He will battle on breaking balls. And for him to get up there and hit that three run home run, that moment. Let's talk about that. Like, it just doesn't make sense. And they go down one, they keep punching and punching and you feel it when Var shows up. You feel he can put one in the streets. They have a lineup. Vlad Durrell Jr. I think is growing in front of our eyes. You're looking at an athlete, you're looking at a great defender at first base. You probably think he's better than you thought at first base along with everybody else. He's smart, he's running the bases well and he's electric at the place. So I think they punch back. How do they get back in it? The question is, can Shane Bieber beat the Dodgers? I think the, the question for me was, could Max Scherzer and Shane Bieber beat the Dodgers? They're going to have to find one. And so now it's up to Shane. Don't call me Justin.
Dan Patrick
Yamamoto reminds me of Pedro Martinez a little bit.
Kevin Millar
You know what, that's a great comp in Pedro's prime. Little guy, easy, easy. Velo. And hits those four quadrants where he wants what the execution on that three, two curveball to Vlad in game two. And then Barshow got it also like the ability to throw a 74, 76 mile breaking ball for 97 and split X. Kid two. And he's great. He's unbelievable. I mean, you're looking at, you're looking at some stuff in the series most.
Dan Patrick
Famous person in the crowd last night, Justin Bieber.
Kevin Millar
I went to go use the restroom and there are 17 people surrounding it. And when you Got to go to the bathroom. And you know that when you got to go potty, you're ready to go potty. And you kind of closer. You get to a bathroom, your mind's already saying, yeah, we're right there. So it gets worse. And then all of a sudden you get the back up. Excuse me, I gotta go potty. Sir, back up. Bieber's in there. I know that, but I played the show. I mean, I took Channel park deep there. Vince Gully now and then they were soon. I get my peaches down to Georgia. I get my blank in California. So, yeah, it was Justin Bieber's the one.
Dan Patrick
Okay. You didn't get to say hello to him, did you?
Kevin Millar
No, no, no, I couldn't get to him. I was going to try get in there and get a quick selfie and in the bathroom, but it didn't work out.
Dan Patrick
But he's. He had his Blue Jays jersey on.
Kevin Millar
Oh, yeah, that's what's cool. Like Drake, like, you're in Toronto and then there's. There's Drake. You forget the fans come out, right? But Blue Jay fans are awesome. The whole country's awesome. They got 6 million watching. It was electric there. Dodger Stadium was phenomenal last night. The weather, you can't. You can't paint a better picture right now. There's no shadows. That's the good news. And so we'll see what goes on tonight.
Dan Patrick
Good to talk to you. Thanks for getting up.
Kevin Millar
Always great to see you. And I'll see you on our show at some point. You're coming on with your shirt off.
Dan Patrick
Oh, with my shirt off.
Kevin Millar
Yeah, I want your shirt off. I t After dark, Hoops.
Dan Patrick
I'm worried about you, you know, Big Poppy in the shower. You want me with my shirt off? Like, what's going on here?
Kevin Millar
That's our skit daddy, you know that. We didn't talk about shillings.
Dan Patrick
We talked about when's the last time you talked to Kurt Schilling?
Kevin Millar
Golly, it's been a little bit, you know, it's been a little bit, but yeah.
Dan Patrick
Why is he not in the hall of Fame, man?
Kevin Millar
I don't know. Every fifth day, man, you wanted him on the mound. You know that. I mean, he. That seems like all these great ones, right? Kershaw and the bass loaded moment. We didn't say anything about that. Like, are you kidding me? Are you kidding me?
Dan Patrick
Like, I was holding. I was holding my breath.
Kevin Millar
It was.
Dan Patrick
Yeah.
Kevin Millar
You could have seen a.
Dan Patrick
A.
Kevin Millar
What happened? It happened perfectly. Like, just this absolutely grinding at bat. And I love Freddy's comment saying, we saw 89 on the cutter slider. He goes. I knew we were in for the old school shot.
Dan Patrick
Thank you, Kev.
Kevin Millar
All right, pal. We'll see you guys.
Dan Patrick
That's Kevin Mallah, a co host Intentional Talk with Ryan Dempster, MLB Network. Every game day. They'll be starting at 5 Eastern during the World Series. Yeah, Paulie, I went back to check.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
You're talking about David Ortiz.
Dan Patrick
He was in three World Series, 14 games.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
He hit.455 in those three games. Three series.
Dan Patrick
He got locked in, man. You know, and keep in mind, he was with the twins and they kicked him to the curb. And then all of a sudden gets with the Red Sox and became a Hall of Famer. Yeah, you make these moments in October, but when you're batting nearly.500, what a weapon. Just because, you know, they have to. They're always thinking about him. When's he coming up? You know, what do we do with him? What's the situation? You have those players where you go, I gotta, I gotta pitch to him. James in Virginia. Well, you knew it probably wasn't going to go your way last night. How are you?
Caller
Oh, thank you for taking my call, brother. Happy Tuesday. DP Dan X, man, salute the commander. Big time, all the time, every time, man. You know what? I was inspired last night, man. If the defense can give that effort the way they gave it in the first half, too bad. Football is not a 30 minute game because Washington came to play initially. But Patrick Mahomes is the greatest quarterback I ever seen. And I love Tom Brady. Six Super Bowls, nine appearances, man. But what Patrick Mahomes can do, like you were talking to Steve Young, his ability to extend the play and to just find the open man every time is uncanny, man. You know, Washington, a lot of injuries, but football is a sport of attrition. But, man, I just can't stop thinking about how great it was to watch Patrick Mahomes. I look forward to Jaden being that quarterback one day where just delivers from the pocket day in and day out, man. But he's got to stay healthy. And man, that, that baseball game last night, I only made it to the seventh inning, man. I had to turn. It was 10:30. I was like, all right, I'm done, guys. But now when I woke up, man, watching show hey in those throughout the game, it's just amazing to see great players do great things and great moments, man. So, Freddie Freeman, congratulations, man. I think the Dodgers gonna take it, man. But the season's on the line Sunday for Washington dp. This is a do or die moment, so I hope they show up, man. You guys have a great day. Thanks for letting me run. Salute the commanders.
Dan Patrick
James In Virginia Glass always half full Commanders are 3 and 5, Chiefs 5 and 3. But you look at the games that they got coming up. They got Buffalo, they've got Denver. And what's the other tough one that they've got? Todd, do you have that with the Chiefs their next three games? It's Buffalo, it's Denver. I know they got the Cowboys. Let me see, we got Bills, bye week, Broncos, Colts, Cowboys, Colts, Colts. Yeah, Colts and Cowboys. All right, we'll take a break. Reggie Miller will join us next. Back after this.

Kal Penn
Hey, I'm Cal Penn, and on my new podcast, Here We Go Again, we'll take today's trends and headlines and ask, why does history keep repeating itself? You may know me as the second hottest actor from the Harold and Kumar movies, but I'm also an author, a White House staffer, and as of like 15 seconds ago, a podcast host. Along the way, I've made some friends who are experts in science, politics and pop culture. And each week one of them will be joining me to answer my burning questions, like, are we heading towards another financial crash? Like in 08, is non monogamy back in style? And how come there's never a gate ready for your flight when it lands like two minutes early? We've got guests like Pete Buttigieg, Stacey Abrams, Lilly Singh, and Bill Nye.

Dan Patrick
I always think of those fan bases like the Red Sox looking at Mookie Bats. The Braves, Freddie Freeman. Angel fans looking at Shohei Otani. Reggie Miller, Angels fan, Hall of Famer. He'll be on the call with Mike Cherico and Jamal Crawford. It's the Knicks and the bucks tonight on NBC. And Peacock tip off at 8 Eastern. How does that feel to be an Angels fan watching Shohei Otani?
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Theodore, I am so glad you brought this up because I. I need to know this because I need to know the inner circles. How in the world did my beloved California Angels. I'm not even going to call them the Los Angeles. They're the California Angels to me. How could we have ever seen Shohei Ohtani and Mike Trout in the same uniform on the same team? How could we ever see Shohei walk out the door? Now, I know he was a free agent and free agent and he could go anywhere he want, but we should have gave him part ownership of that team. There's no way he should have ever. And not only does he leave, he goes right down the road to the Dodgers. It kills me. It. It kills me. And I. I know it's not very popular to be an angel fan in Dodgerland. I've been. But I grew up because of my brother Daryl, as I am. I'm a die hard angel fan. And it just.
Kevin Millar
How?
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Come on, talk to me like I'm a kindergarten, please.
Dan Patrick
They should have given him part of Disneyland. You know, they. Yes, yes.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Whatever he wanted, they should have given it to him. Whatever he wanted.
Dan Patrick
Is there the best two ways? So pitching and hitting. He's. He's probably the greatest baseball player of all time. But the best two way player in NBA history is.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
In terms of basketball.
Dan Patrick
Yeah. Best two way player in the NBA in history.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
I would say. Ooh, Kawhi comes to mind. Two way offensive defense. Right.
Dan Patrick
But he's not better offensively than Jordan and he's not better defensively than Jordan.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
I would say he's on par defensively with Jordan. He's not offensively as good as Jordan.
Dan Patrick
Okay, Elijah, one.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Ding ding for the win. Oh, here's another one. Kareem.
Dan Patrick
Early in his career.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Okay, well, early in his career he was, he was that. I would, I would say Kareem or.
Dan Patrick
Hakeem because I know it's not, it's not apples to apples with what Ohtani is doing, but you do have to play defense. And you know Mahomes doesn't have to play defense in the NFL. Correct. So just to be able to go to the other end and not be a liability or to be a stopper, I don't know. Do we have stoppers anymore in the NBA?
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
I will say in today's generation, in today's games, I would put Giannis in that category. He averages 30, but he does a good job on the defensive end. I think last season's MVP SGA Shea is a pretty good two way player as well. Gives you 32 at one end and I think he was second in steals a year ago. Those two guys come to mind again. I mentioned Kawhi Leonard, Victor Benyama. Oh, he's changing the game, right?
Kevin Millar
He is.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
I've. Every time you turn into a Spurs game, you're going to see something new. So last night it was the 360 layup, right?
Kevin Millar
It's.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
He will do one thing when you leave that arena or watching that game going, I gotta see more.
Dan Patrick
He took a three, he took a logo three. And he's got good form.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
He's got great form. And I think just looking at him, it looks like he's put on not a lot of weight, but he looks like he's a little bit more, I don't know, more comfortable in his skin. He put like maybe £10 or something, but he's much more comfortable out there on the floor. It's. And for them to be undefeated at this point, I know it's early, it's only a week into the season. Look, they're not winning the championship, but I like how they are playing as a young team.
Dan Patrick
And you're seeing him, he should have been defensive player of the year. He didn't play enough games to qualify. He's only 21, he can guard the perimeter from the paint. He's averaging six blocks now. He can shoot, shoot the three, he's got a handle. They're putting him in different positions on the block where he can succeed. And I said this, I got Luca as the MVP this year, but after that, I've got Victor. I'm going to take Victor the next five years. After that.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Well, look for. For Luca and for Victor to win, obviously team success is going to play a counterpoint. So if the spurs continue to play like this, I say the spurs end in a top four in a loaded Western Conference. Yes. He'll win the same with Luca Lucas in the Lakers. They've got to finish in the top four. To me, it'd be. I know. I think Jokic won it a few years ago and Denver was, I believe, six in the Eastern or in the Western Conference.
Dan Patrick
Yeah.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
So there is precedence for that. But I think if either one of those teams, the Lakers or the spurs, finish in the top four in the very heavy loaded Western Conference, one of them will win mvp.
Dan Patrick
If I said you can have Luca or you can have Victor.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Victor.
Dan Patrick
Okay. Is there any player you would take over Victor Wembanyama for, let's say, the next five years?
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Well, he's only 21, but to me, SGA can. He cannot go wrong. Look, opening night, watching him and then obviously watching him last year in the finals, in that playoff run and watching it up close, as personal, as a fan, I mean, this dude has it all. I mean, when the game is on the line, he knows how to create his own shot. He knows how to create for others. And again, I look at the other end as well. I think that's what made Michael so great. Not only was he giving you 40 in the playoffs, but he was shutting you down. Shutting me down in the playoffs.
Dan Patrick
Well, he didn't shut you down, but.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
That, to me, that's what sga. Sga, he plays at both ends of the floor. So to me, I wouldn't trade either one of those players right now.
Dan Patrick
If I said you could have SGA or Luca, oh, my God.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Oh, I would take sga.
Dan Patrick
Really?
Kevin Millar
Yeah.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
I'm taking sga.
Dan Patrick
You're in love because you got to.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Play the other end of the court. Lucas getting there. I mean, he's getting there.
Dan Patrick
Yeah.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Look at. Now, I will say this. To me, Luca's a better scorer than Wimby and sga. But there's two sides of the ball. You know that.
Dan Patrick
All right?
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
There's two sides.
Dan Patrick
Reggie is on the Call the Knicks, visit the Bucks, NBC and peacock tonight at 8 Eastern. I was wondering about this where we talk about shooting form. You're one of the great shooters of all time, but would you teach your son how to shoot the way you shoot or would you try to have him emulate somebody else?
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
I would have him shoot the way he's comfortable shooting. You shooting the basketball are like fingerprints. Everyone's fingerprints are different. Everyone's going to shoot the basketball different. So there's no way I would tell my son to shoot like me or Clay. Now I might reference like a Ray Allen or a Klay Thompson in terms of their form and their follow through, but in terms of how you hold the basketball and your release form, because I was unorthodox, I had my elbow out. That was in textbook. You look at Stephen Curry, he's not textbook shooter, but we know he's the best shooter of all time. And he goes in. Everyone shoots the basketball different. You can have talking points about other players, but you want. I would want my son to shoot how he's comfortable shooting.
Dan Patrick
Yeah, I always wondered that when you, because your, your release was unorthodox, but it's like, it's kind of like golf swings, as long as everybody ends up at the same spot when they get to the ball with the club. But was your follow through the same as anybody else though, when you released it?
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
The thing that. And if you watch all these great shooters and you can go back to the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, as long as your shoulders are in line with the rim, it doesn't matter if your elbows like this, like this, your sh. As long as these are square to the rim where mine always was. It doesn't matter what your release form is and how you get the ball off, as long as your shoulders are in line with the rim, that's all that matters.
Dan Patrick
Yeah, but Larry Bird made fun of my release because he said, your shoulder, it's out.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
And I go, but hold on, look at his release. I know, look up and, and what I tried to do on. When I got to high school and college, I copied a lot of shooters, Larry being one of them, because Larry shot so high and he shot over his head into his left. I took a lot from Dale Ellis, who was another great player. Coming off screenshot, he shot the ball like right in front of his, like face almost. So I would on the court, depending on the situation, if I was coming off and getting ready to shoot over my right shoulder off a pin down screen, I shot like Larry I would get the ball on a high release when I was curling, coming off my left shoulder, and a chance to get in the. In the rim. It's a much quicker release. So it was more catch and shoot like a Dale Ellis. So I would pick and choose different shooters that I respected their games and how they're. They released the basketball and incorporated that into my very unorthodox release and shot.
Dan Patrick
You love the Knicks to win these, right?
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
I do.
Dan Patrick
Okay.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
I do. We mentioned this last week with Boston and Indiana, the injuries to their two star players, it's wide open. But to me, it's. It's Knicks or bust, though. I mean, they just beat the Cavaliers opening night. The Cavaliers will have something to say. I still think Cleveland will win the east in terms of their record. They'll have the number one seed. But I do think once New York really figures out Mike Brown's system, pace and space and getting up threes because they're not used to playing like this. They played half court basically under Tom Thibodeau. Mike Brown wants them to run, get up, get a lot of threes up. So it's going to take some time for them to get in condition their legs, their lungs to play that way.
Dan Patrick
Theodore, the Sixers back court. I love Maxi. And now you get edge. Come in there and I know you're not going to get Paul George anywhere near what they hope to get. And even Joel Embiid, that's going to be a real slow, slow.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
But if those two guys give them anything, right? And those guards continue to play. Kelly Oubre had 25 last night for them as well. If he can give them contribution, to me, they're one of those teams that you don't know, because if the big fella turns into the big fella, like we're his MVP campaign, well, the Knick, that's a different story. Paul George doesn't have to carry the load like he used to anymore because of injuries. To me, it's Tyrese Maxey's team, right. And that young kid.
Dan Patrick
Edgecombe.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Edgecombe. I mean, there's. That's an impressive start to a season. So his confidence is there. But if the big fella turns into the big fella and can remain healthy, to me, the Sixers are. They're one of those scary outs.
Dan Patrick
What was the most concerning or damning thing about the FBI investigation that stood out with the NBA to you?
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Well, let me break this down. You know, it's two different, separate incidences.
Dan Patrick
Yeah.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
So Terry Rozier and Damon Jones are All about the, the rigged and the, the parlays and the over unders, whereas Chauncey's is about fixed poker games. And I'm wrapping my head around this because I just, I come back to the reason of why. Like, why would someone jeopardize these guys, jeopardize their career and their livelihoods for something like this? I mean, I've known you a long time and this goes back to high school for me. And even in college, you, and you can relate to this. You weren't even almost allowed to say the word bet. Yeah, right. It was like a taboo in, in today's society with partnerships with FanDuel and DraftKings and all these betting sites. It's very murky. And I just wonder why these guys would put everything on the line for a short amount of glory. I, I just don't get it. You know, your boys are supposed to be around you to protect you, not exploit you. And that's in terms of Cherry Rozier and Damon Jones. I, I'm somewhat sad with the Chauncey thing because you. We've known Chauncey for a while. He is one of the best dudes you'll know. And again, we don't know everything.
Dan Patrick
But I wonder if they got compromised, Reg. I wonder if they get in the hole.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
And how do you get compromised? Why? My point is, why would you put yourself in that situation to be compromised?
Dan Patrick
You don't think you're going to lose that kind. You know, Barclays talked about that. You end up losing a million dollars and then all of a sudden you got to pay it back. And then what if you can't pay it back? And then they say, here's how you pay it back. You bring in these people and play poker and we're going to take their money.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
If that is the case, which I hope it's not, that even makes my stomach even turn even more because again, why put yourself in that situation?
Dan Patrick
Terry Rozier and Damon Jones are probably thinking nobody is going to notice. That's why people do. You know, John Tay Porter lived in a vacuum, Reg. He's like, nobody's going to be following my over unders. Well, they don't until somebody puts $100,000 on your over under. Now you got Vegas and I think maybe Rozier and you know, Damon Jones, they live in a vacuum. Like, hey, I got some information for you. Make sure, you know, give me a kickback. At twenty five hundred dollars, they're not thinking that they're going to get caught.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Look, it's again, we don't know everything. I certainly don't know everything. I have more questions than the answers for you.
Thursday Night Football Announcer
I.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
This is sad day for sports, for the NBA. I'm sure they're going to relook how their betting odds are. They're over unders on certain.
Dan Patrick
Well, you got to take away prop bets. You gotta. Because that's so easy to manipulate because everybody knows what their prop bets are. You got the Bucks game tonight? I got Giannis's over under rebounds at 12 and a half. Like I. Right.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
I don't know which. I don't know what you can do. This is. I don't know what you can do.
Dan Patrick
Would you rather go back and talk about the Angels and Shohei Otani?
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
I don't know what hurts me more, this betting thing or shows.
Dan Patrick
Have fun tonight. Tell Mike Trico and Jamal Crawford second best score on the broadcast team now. Why?
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Now you're trying to get me going?
Dan Patrick
No, you're the number one.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Okay? Yes, he's two.
Dan Patrick
No, you're not two, okay? You're the best. You're the best shooter. I haven't seen the best shooter.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
But in terms of handling. Because look, Jamal could go out. Jamal can give either one of these teams tonight. He could give them 15, 20 minutes right now.
Dan Patrick
Seriously.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Yes, he could. Jamal could.
Dan Patrick
That'd be great if Jamal could probably.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Get 10 points tonight in tonight's game. Now. Well, they'll probably have to play zone, but he could give them 10 points.
Dan Patrick
That'd be a great story.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
That would.
Dan Patrick
It'd be great if he could play in a game and then come over broadcast. Now, the NBA's got enough to worry about that. We don't need to do this. We don't do that.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Enough problems.
Kevin Millar
Stop it.
Dan Patrick
All right, we're gonna stop. He's Reggie Aloysius Miller. You'll find him tonight at 8 Eastern. Mike Chico. Reg and Jamal Crawford. It's the Knicks and the Bucks. Thanks, bud.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Thank you, Theodore. Appreciate my danettes. Love you guys.

Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
Wow.
Dan Patrick
A good lineup, Reg. Jamal Crawford, Carmelo Vince Carter, Tracy McGrady. But I do think Jamal Crawford could give you. And I don't think Reggie's exaggerating. I think Jamal Crawford could play and probably get you a few buckets. Absolutely. Yes. Marvin, you've sent me.

Hey, I'm Cal Penn, and on my new podcast, Here We Go Again, we'll take today's trends and headlines and ask, why does history keep repeating itself? You may know me as the second hottest actor from the Harold and Kumar movies, but I'm also an author, a White House staffer, and as of like 15 seconds ago, a podcast host. Along the way, I've made some friends who are experts in science, politics, and pop culture. And each week one of them will be joining me to answer my burning questions, like, are we heading towards another financial crash? Like in 08, is non monogamy back in style? And how come there's never a gate ready for your flight when it lands like two minutes early? We've got guests like Pete Buttigieg, Stacey Abrams, Lilly Singh, and Bill Nye.

Listen to the Trap Nurse podcast from the Black Effect Podcast network on the AHA Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast.
Dan Patrick
We are trying to put this into mainstream vernacular and that's the RCI Receiver caused interception. And you had one last night with Travis Kelce and maybe two of them. And the Mannings, we thought, now they did talk about this, that it shouldn't be on the quarterback, that he threw an interception. I'm telling you, Peyton and Eli, it's called an rci. It's receiver caused interception. Maybe we create a new category here because not all interceptions are the same. And you saw last night at least one. You know, Travis Kelsey has the ball go through his hands and I think it was Eli saying that wasn't meant for him because there was way too much zip on it. And as soon as Kelsey drops it or the interception, all Travis Kelsey's washed. Kelsey's washed. I'm like, I don't think the ball was meant for him. Now do I think he slowed down dramatically? Yes. Do I think he has that ability to still find these soft spots in the zone? Yes, I do. But then there'll be that occasion where all of a sudden he gets behind the defense. Like they forgot that. Hey, where's Kelsey? Oh, you know, he's 10 yards behind us here. But is he washed? He's not a threat every single week. But what you want is you want him for the postseason. That's. That's all this is. His last year is going to be red zone postseason. Yes. Marvin.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
See, I disagree a little bit.
Snax from Trap Nerds Podcast
I think he's still a threat, but he's not 10.
Theodore (Sports Analyst/Commentator)
10 receptions, 158 yards and two touchdowns.
Snax from Trap Nerds Podcast
Anymore, but a big third and eight. He's a threat to get that.
Dan Patrick
Yeah, yeah. Just from what we've seen to what he is now, it's, you know, there, there's a drop off there. Big drop off, in my opinion. I was surprised he came back this season. But you know, that team, it's hard to walk away from a team that can go back to the Super Bowl. And right now they have the best odds to go back to the Super Bowl. Derek and Maryland. Hi, Derek. What's on your mind today? Hey, how you doing, Dan? Good.
Caller
First time, long time. 511 and a disappointing 201. In my opinion, Reggie Miller is responsible for the single greatest moment of trash talk in NBA history. I wanted to know if the Danets can remember their Greatest achievement in trash talk.
Dan Patrick
Oh, I don't know if. I don't think we've ever had a trash talk conversation. I don't know. I mean I, I had stupid things I said when I played, but like, you know, nobody was chronicling my trash talk. Yeah, there's more where that came from while I'm playing in a, in an alumni league or something like nobody cares. Yeah. Seaton.
iHeart Radio Announcer
I'm not.
Dan Patrick Show Producer/Staff
I can't think of a time that I've been a particularly great trash talker. However, my son is spectacular and it's shocking and he, it's one of my most proud things of him where I'm like, listen to the kid out there barking.
Dan Patrick
I love it. Oh, when he's playing soccer.
Dan Patrick Show Producer/Staff
Oh yeah, he's out there playing soccer. There was this one time he was, he was 12 and he was playing like up a couple of ages. He was playing kids who were like freshmen in high school and he was playing really well. And this one kid, this gigantic kid, I don't know, must have been 14 already tackled him hard and wiped him out, cleaned his legs out and the kid got up and like flexed and was like, yeah. And my son dusted him off and laughed and said I've been out here cooking you all day and I'm 12 and walked away. And I was like, that's my boy. That's my son right there. He just did that.
Dan Patrick
He just did that. That was awesome.
Dan Patrick Show Producer/Staff
And I could never.
Dan Patrick
James in la. Hi James. What's on your mind today?
Caller
Hey bud. This time long time. Maybe Derek and Friskin coordinated trash talk off. But anyways, only here to talk about Qualcomm or a couple other things. What a night and morning that was nice to see the crowd get what they deserved for staying with the boys all the way through. One thing that wasn't touched on. Joe Davis and Smoltzi were just terrific on the call. John is so transparent and educational and I know he's had some issues with modern day analytics and the dependency on data over feel, but I appreciated them touching on the exit velocity and launch angle on some of those fly balls like the Will Smith morning track shot. It contextualize the impact of the weather and help the casual fan understand why, you know, they track that data. Everyone's going to remember Freddie's home run and they should. But the real win came from that bullpen. 11 shutout innings. Klein was outstanding and just like you, I just couldn't. Was on the edge of my seat for that Clayton A b hoping for one final clutch out to bookend that story. Career. You can see how much it meant.
Dan Patrick
Yeah. Thank you, James. Yeah. The relief pitchers, they did a wonderful job. Wonderful job. Now you hope Ohtani gives you a good five or six if he can take a little pressure because Toronto's bullpen now, now you start to add up that game and then you have Tuesday, Wednesday. So three games in a row, you're hoping that you get back to Toronto. Let's see. Todd, what'd you learn today?

This is an iHeart podcast.
Date: October 28, 2025
Host: Dan Patrick
Guests: Kevin Millar (MLB Network Analyst), Reggie Miller (NBA Hall of Famer, Analyst)
Main Theme: Post-World Series marathon reactions; transcendent sports figures; two-way stars in sports; NBA early-season storylines; ongoing NBA gambling controversy; athlete legacy and culture.
In this engaging hour, Dan Patrick dives into the aftermath of an epic 18-inning World Series marathon, speaking with former MLB player and analyst Kevin Millar. The two dissect clutch moments, the Shohei Ohtani phenomenon, and what makes certain players rise in big moments. Later, NBA legend Reggie Miller joins to connect Ohtani’s two-way excellence with basketball’s best complete players, discuss Victor Wembanyama’s emergence, and address the shadow of gambling issues over the NBA. Interspersed are calls from listeners, lighthearted banter, and memorable takes on sports culture and legacies.

[17:33] – [19:00]
