Thank you for downloading the app. Fritzy in the back row along with Dylan, who's sitting in for Seaton and Marv. Paulie, yours truly. All right, our three poll question. Dylan. All right, then we're going to go off roading a little bit here. Something we talked about earlier. What subject should they stop doing documentaries on O.J. simpson, Aaron Hernandez, Biggie and Tupac or other? Because there's a new OJ Docu series out and I kind of think they covered it. But I was told if you think you know everything about the O.J. simpson trial situation life, think again, that I think it's a three part series documentary on O.J. simpson. I don't really care anymore. I know that there was it, you know, it was poorly handled from the prosecution side. But I don't know what hasn't come out in the last couple of decades here. You know, he killed two people, he got away with it. And what else is there to know? Yeah, Paulie, the new one is called American manhunt. O.J. simpson, it's by Netflix and it just was released. Okay. It says they have interviews with people on both sides of the case who had never done interviews before. No names are given. Great. All right. Yeah. Paul, back in the day I used to hang at a bar that you and I had been to in the Burbank area. And I struck up a friendship with Kato Kalin who everyone knows from the O.J. simpson case. And we kept in touch over the years and talked whenever I'd be out there. And I never ever spoke to him once about the O.J. simpson case. And he found that refreshing. And he says the funny thing is people come up to me and meet me at airports or restaurants and they say, hey, real quick, tell me, tell me something I didn't know. Tell Me something. And OJ And Kato always says, like, I'm going to tell someone randomly at a Cheesecake Factory. Well, this is what I never told people for 25 years. Yeah, yeah. You know, you watched it unfold. And OJ Paid a lot of money to get the right people, and Johnny Cochran did what you want your lawyer to do. They got him off. That's it. I mean, and I. Look, I did the interview with O.J. simpson after the fact, and he was still trying that case. He wanted to talk about that case because I was there to talk to him about football. Granted, bad decision on my part because Nobody cared about O.J. simpson, the football player after that trial. But I think I was playing USC in the Orange bowl, and I thought, you know what? Maybe we should talk to O.J. about football. And we talked for 90 minutes, I think. And that was the infamous exchange where we're changing tapes and the cameraman is going to put a new tape in. We're going to start the interview again. And OJ out of nowhere, goes, do you think I did it? And I said, did what? Because I wanted him to tell me. And then he said, killed those people? And then I said, yes. And then my cameraman goes, we're ready. And then we started. He started back in on football questions. And then he says to me, goes, you don't. You don't know what my life is like. I go, I don't care what your life is like. I didn't care. He goes, I was in a hotel in Vegas, and I walked by a room, and they're shooting a porn. And they go, come on, O.J. do you want to come in and be in the porn movie? I said. And like, wow, okay, that's crazy. Is that the worst thing that happened to you? Like, oh, my God. Delusional. Scary delusional, but not like his presence didn't. Like, it didn't jump out at me. Didn't look like he could harm anybody by then. I mean, he was kind of slunched, you know, slumped over, and he was not. He was not O.J. yes, Dylan? I was just gonna say, if that's the worst thing that happens to you, I don't know if that's a good excuse for killing someone. Yeah, no, but he's saying his life after the fact, you know, like, oh, that was Post. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. This was Post when I interviewed him. Not good. Look who's on the road. Smiley face. Doesn't have to sit next to Fritzi. Okay. Seaton is buy a Waffle House. Boy, that narrows it down. In the south, we should be able to pick exactly where you are. Okay, Todd, where is Seaton right now? He is in Alpharetta, Georgia. Okay. Dylan? Somewhere outside Atlanta. Okay, Marvin. He's in Atlanta. All right, Paulie. I'll say outside Oxford, Mississippi. I'm going to say Greenville, South Carolina. We are on 20 west, somewhere between Atlanta and Birmingham, where we're going to next. Okay. Yeah. So we're not too far outside of Atlanta, though. Any highlights that you would like to illuminate us on? Let's see. Well, yesterday was awesome. Charlotte is a great city. Yeah, that place was a lot of fun. I'd never been there before other than the airport, but Charlotte is awesome. Greenville, South Carolina, what a place. That place is rad, too. We were with Phil Collins yesterday. He's got real, like, Troy Aikman vibes. Actually, that guy, he's. He's pretty cool. He's got a real Troy, and, like, he'll say something to you with a wink, and you're like, God, I love this dude. But so far? Yeah, so far things are good. We're going to get to Birmingham in about two hours or so if traffic starts to cooperate. A lot of traffic in Atlanta. Oh, if you remember that, Dan. Oh, yes, I do. Yes. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. A lot of traffic. Yeah, a lot of traffic. And then. Are you going to set up shop in Birmingham? Where's. Going to Birmingham and stopping there, then we're going to. We're supposed to end today in Gulfport, Louisiana. Golf course, Mississippi. Yeah, yeah. Gulfport, either. Yeah, we should end up there today. I'm going to try to stop by. I think we drive through Tuscaloosa, so might make a quick pit stop there. Roll tide. Sightseeing. Yeah, yeah. Roll tide. Roll tide. I'm gonna try not to do that commercial that you see all the time. High tide. High tide. High tide. I. I stayed at a hotel in Gulfport. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm looking forward to that. I've never been there. I'm really, really looking forward to getting there tonight. And then tomorrow, we're on to New Orleans. I like it. Yes. Paulie Seaton, on your way to Birmingham, you will pass right by the Talladega Superspeedway, which is as NASCAR as it gets. That's a great spot. Yeah. I don't know if they'll let you get the bad boy on the track, but if you can take some hot laps, that'd be nice to get a van out there. Oh, that'd be awesome. That's a great idea. That's a great idea. I know when you start to look at the map, you can just sort of, like, pinpoint all of these places. Like, I really want to go to Jackson. I really want. You know, there's Oxford isn't too far away, but, you know, on the map, it's this far. And then you're like, oh, no, that's four hours. Like, dang. All right, well, we'll talk to you tomorrow. Safe travels. Yeah. Look forward to seeing you guys. That's Seaton O'Connor on the road with the French kid somewhere outside of Atlanta. I remember Smyrna when I lived in Atlanta, somebody lived in Smyrna, and I was like, smyrna, Alpharetta. Back then, Alpharetta was all farmland or, like, horse country. Now. Crazy developed out there. All right, Bill Belichick was on the let's Go podcast with Jim Gray, and Bill was talking about the super bowl trophy. Players win games. You can't win games without good players. I don't care who the coach is. It's impossible. You can't win without good players. I mean, it's. You know, it's Brady, it's McGinnis, it's Frable, it's Brusky, it's Corey Dillon, it's Randy Moss, Troy Brown, Lawyer Malloy, Ty Law, Rodney Harrison. Those are the guys that won the games, man. I didn't make any tackles. I didn't make any kicks. That was Vinateri that made that kick. In 4 inches of snow, you got to have good players. They don't name it the Star trophy. It's named the Lombardi Trophy. Maybe they should name it the Brady Trophy. He won seven of them. Okay. And Jim was, you know, he was bringing a Bart Star, the Green Bay Packer quarterback. Yes, yes. It's named the Lombardi Trophy. And, you know, it sounded like that was off the cuff and Bill was having a little bit of fun. Then people picked up on it, said, you know, should they name the super bowl trophy after Tom Brady? And the answer is no. No. And they still call it the Larry O'Brien Trophy in the NBA. How about the MVP of the super bowl? If you want to do something like that, like the NBA did? Hey, here's the Larry Bird Trophy for the Eastern Conference MVP. Or Magic Johnson Western Conference MVP. Yes, Todd. Since, I believe, 1990, they referred to it as the Pete Roselle Award. I don't know how much it's publicized, but the Super Bowl MVP award is the Pete Roselle Award, and I don't know how long it's going to stay that way. If they would change the name to someone else. Well, I could see them doing it, but we don't have to and I don't know. Are we going to call it the Michael Jordan trophy? If you win the super. Win the NBA Finals. But why are we taking Lombardi off the trophy? You know, he was instrumental in the beginning part of the NFL. Super Bowl, Super Bowl 1 and 2. I think he won five NFL titles total. Two Super Bowls. Leave him on there. He didn't do anything. And Tom Brady. You want the mvp? Great. Yes. Marvin. Well, changing the name wouldn't be uncharted territory. The Larry O'Brien Trophy was renamed in 1984. It used to be the Walter A. Brown title. He was another commissioner. Correct. And then Larry O'Brien came in, but they didn't call it the Dave. Well, David Stern would never let him call it the David Stern trophy. It never happened. Yes, Paulie, I, I don't think I'm for naming the Super Bowl MVP after Tom Brady. He has five of them. Yes. I mean, there's a reason for it and it would make a lot of sense, but eventually someone could have six and then you would almost by de facto have to make it theirs. Yeah, but that would be a nice thing to watch. The handoff. Yes, yes. Literally, Tom would hand off the trophy and they'd have to take out his name and then put Patrick Mahomes on there. He'd be 80, he'd be looking 30. Tom's like Benjamin Button. He's getting younger and younger and younger looking. He gets older, I get older, he looks younger. That's not fair. Here's a couple of things to keep your ear on. I'd say your eyes, but you're going to hear the following this, this week and next week. You know, Kellen Moore might be the leading candidate to be the Saints head coach. Okay. Until somebody beats them, the Chiefs are still the best team in the NFL. The super bowl will be decided in the trenches. The Eagles will need a big game from Saquon Barkley. The Chiefs are very difficult to beat in one score games. They really are. Pete Carroll may be old from an age standpoint, but he brings a youthful energy to the Raiders. Jimmy Butler and Pat Riley should part ways in the near future. It's tough for small markets to keep up with the big spending Dodgers. Facts. Yes. Yes. Paulie. If I were an NFL analyst and I like was getting ready to do a Take on air. I'd always lean towards. You got to win the turnover. You got to. Because you're rarely wrong with that. Yes, Most. Most times when you win the turnover battle, you do win games. I'm going to guess, by the way, there was something that happened after the Eagles win, and Nick Sirianni is at the press conference after the win against Washington, and he made sure that everybody heard that he was going to compliment Jalen Hurts. How about our quarterback? How about our quarterback? He's a stud. He has a stud. I knew he was going to play that way. I knew it. Don't doubt him. All he does is win. Okay, so he's with Terry Bradshaw after the game. Want to make sure everybody knows because there was some friction between these two. Then Jalen Hurts goes to the press conference, and here's the question, and then his answer. And it stayed with me for the last couple of days, the meaning to get all that praise from coach post game on stage. And what's it like playing for Coach Sirianni? Well, he. He's done a great job. He's done a great job. I guess he let me on my straight jacket a little bit today. Okay. If he said he took off the handcuffs, then I would. I wouldn't even have thought anything but a straight jacket. Correct me if I'm wrong. I've never been in a straight jacket. But that's so you don't hurt yourself, right? Like, you can't do anything. But the straitjacket is so you don't hurt yourself. Now he's passing a lot less. He had a hundred fewer attempts this year, and he finally got to showcase, you know what? He can do more running than passing. But, you know, he had a really good game. Great game. But, you know, he had a great quarterback rating this year, highest of his career. But it feels like Nick Sirianni wants to let everybody know that there's nothing to see here. Keep moving. And Jalen Hurts made me think a little bit more. Like, like, he'll go, he's done a great job. Like, I mean, come on. If you have Sirianni's voice and Jalen hurts and you're complimenting each other, like, if I said, hey, how about my wife? She's awesome and she. She is the best. And then you say to my wife, hey, what. What'd you think of what Dan said? He's done a good job. Yes, Marvin, you took the words out of my mouth because that was the part that got me more than anything, was like, oh, what's it like paying for Coach Sirianni? And I don't know why it stayed with me, but it did. It was. And I don't know. Jalen Hurts. I think we've had him on the show once or twice, but still, I don't. It feels like Saquon took all, all of the oxygen here and it's all about him. And it's not about Jalen Hurts. It's all about the defense. It's all about everybody but him. You know, the coach is getting credit and then we meet, you know, yours truly. Hey, let me see him play big in a big game and. Well, he played big in a big game and I think he's tired of hearing that criticism. And that's why it's like, yeah, he finally took the straight jacket off. Paul. It also felt like an odd time to air that momentary frustration. This is as good of a day as you could have. But like you said, it wasn't about him. He threw for 68% this year. Jalen Hurts. That's up 18 touchdowns, five picks, efficient. All his numbers were up except for attempts. I mean, if you go back to Troy Aikman, I'll bet you at 26 years old, 27. Troy may have been frustrated to not be more the focal point, but look how it worked out for him. Justin Herbert, his attempts were down in large part because, you know, Jim Harbaugh wanted to have a more run focused, concentrated game plan there. But it's, it's winning. I mean, that Patrick, look at Patrick Mahomes. I mean, that's a prime example of somebody who threw 50 touchdowns. Now if he gets to 27, 30, he's probably thrilled because they're a defensive minded team. Ball control, running the football. They don't have those explosive plays, but they're winning. I don't think Mahomes is going to go. Yeah, nice that Andy Reid. Let me throw the ball a little bit more here. By the way, a member of our audience suggested if the Chiefs win, we can work our way around The Pat Riley 3 Pete and call this the 3D Pete, as in Andy Reid threed Pete. Okay. What do you think? 3 Pete. Yeah. Yeah. Fritz. He's jealous. Yeah. What do you think, Todd? Damn it. All right, that's what I thought. When we come back, a little bit more reaction to the Commissioner of the NBA with the 40 minute game, 10 minute quarters. Oh, was there. A lot of people had a lot of opinions about this. Our good buddy Jamal Crawford, former NBA player, will join us as well. Back after this Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in the nation.

We'll talk to Jamal Crawford, former NBA player, former Sixth man of the Year, scored 50 points for four different teams in his nine years in the NBA. He'll join us. We'll ask him about what the commissioner said yesterday about maybe going from 48 minutes to 40 minutes. Tony in Vegas. Hi, Tony. Hey, Dan. Tony from Vegas. 5 foot 8, 188. You know, the biggest problem with the NBA is that they have emphasized the individual over the league. It's time to get back to the league being more important than the individual. That's why the NFL is so great. You have great players, but then no one's bigger than the shield. They need to reorganize and emphasize divisions a la the NFL. So how do you suggest that they don't focus on names, but teams. Teams, yes, but people. People come to see players, they come to see stars, they come to see individuals. It's a very individual sport in it, in a. In a team setting. I understand that, but I'm saying they're not showing up because people are resting. The way you get people off the bench is you reorganize these divisions, all of the NFL, and then you adopt a point differential system for in season games per division. So these crossover games on Sundays, they shouldn't be getting, you know, more draw than in division game during the week. I feel like the division game should be based on the point system. I love the epl. Hey, let the commissioner act on that. Yes, Mark, I disagree with Tony completely because the popularity of the NBA in the 80s was based off of individuals. Bird versus Magic. Right. Obviously it was a part of Lakers, Celtics, but Bird and Magic. Kareem was already a big star, but he wasn't drawing ratings like that. When Magic and Bird came into the league, you pushed those guys. And then Michael took it to a different stratosphere. Yeah, I think we focus on the Pistons being a team, probably more so than any of the other dynasties. It was, you know, the spurs was about a team. We, we focused kind of on Tim Duncan, but people complained about that. I. Oh, nobody wants to watch the spurs, all they do is win. I mean, imagine saying that. All they do is win. They play great basketball. It's a smart organization. You got a Hall of Fame coach, Tim Duncan, David Robinson, Tony Parker, Ginobili, but didn't create a buzz. That's why you need these individuals. That's what people are attracted to. They want to come out and see Anthony Edwards. They're not coming out to see Rudy Gobert. They're coming out to see her or Dante DiBincenzo. They're coming out to see Anthony Edwards. You're coming out to see LeBron. Still. You're coming out to see Steph. You're coming out to see kd. You're coming out to see Wemby. I don't know. Out of all of those teams, like Oklahoma City, you might. If you're coming out, you want to see the team. I guess. But it's still. Still about Shea Gilgis. You want to see? All right, let me see. What's, you know, the big hubbub about? Oh, yeah, he's unstoppable. Well, yeah, he is. You want to see stars? You know, you may go see a movie, but your chances are seeing the movie star in that movie. The star is going to get you in that movie. The reason why Moneyball was successful is because you had Brad Pitt. I mean, it's a book about a baseball team being cost cutting, frugal, and bringing in. What is it? Haddeberg, Scott Hatterberg, like, okay, hey, Brad Pitt's in it. All right, I'll watch. Yeah. Paul, like when you pitch that movie idea, we're going to do a movie about the switch to analytics in baseball. There's not going to be a lot of on field action. It's going to be about general managers and analytic people. How do you get that movie made? And Brad, pit calls up. Yeah. Draft day. No football action. But we're going to talk about the NFL draft and trades made leading up to the draft. Kevin Costner's in. Oh, oh, okay. Jennifer Garner and Jennifer Gardner. Very underrated. Very underrated. Todd's a big Jessica Alba. I'm more Jennifer Garner. Really? Yeah. Yeah. And they're both on the market. I mean, I'm not both. I think. I think both. I don't know, Jess. Cowboy, I think. Separated from her husband. Yeah. And I got my hall pass ready to go. Yeah, yeah, yeah. At the end of the day, it's just gonna be you and your hall pass, whatever you do with that. Fair. Yeah. Jennifer Gardner might be In a relationship. She's not married. Checking. But I mean, hopefully she's in love. Because I love love. But I'm just saying, if Jessica Alba. Jennifer Garner. Jennifer Garner all day. Yes, yes, Mark. Jessica Alba is like LeBron. She's had a 20 year prime. Okay, Jessica, not Jessica Alba. I'm looking at love, relationship, holding hands. I can learn to love Dark Angel, Movado commercials. There's a lot of stuff. Oh, Todd. Todd doesn't have a watch, but damn, if he could buy a watch, it'd be that Movado. Great commercial. Yeah. It's borderline inappropriate. Yes. Like, if you're dating Jessica Alba, can you ever be comfortable? I mean, I would try. You know what I mean, though? Like, Jen. Jen Garner. We're just going to have a fun time. She's a. She'll drink out of a pitcher. She will be great. She'll have fun. She'll be up, she'll be like, hey, you know, I'm thinking ice fishing. You want to go ice fishing? Yeah, I'll go ice fishing. Hey, how about, you know, let's go snowshoeing? She'd go, yeah, let's go snowshoeing. I don't know if Jessica Alba is going to do that. You're doubting my girl. I know. I make the smooth segue from Jessica Alba to Jamal Crawford. He is the NBA on NBC lead analyst coming up this next season and former sixth man of the year. All right, unless you want to get in on this Jen Garner or Jessica Alba discussion. This is what I walk into, huh? Yes. Yes, you did. Yes, you did. Okay. Commissioner comes on yesterday, and I don't know if he meant for it to be a bombshell, but let it. You know, he's thinking about, what if we went from 48 to 40 minutes in games. They do this in Europe, they do this in the Olympics. And I think the immediate reaction was, what are we doing here? And I said, commissioners have to think this way. I want your opinion on if the games were 40 minutes as opposed to 48, how would that affect you? I think players, the number one thing that matter, players of all, you know, statures is minutes. They want to be out there. So I'm not sure 40 minutes to go over well because they'll probably play a little bit less than they do, and if they get less numbers, they probably get less stats. And I'm not sure that will go over well. So I'm not sure exactly, you know, what the benefit is if we're trying to save time on their bodies, then we can do that in practice. We can load manage there. But I'm not sure what the benefit is. I'm sure he's always trying, but there's going to be the same number of games, they'll just be fewer minutes. So maybe there's not load management. And I think the commissioner said if you take eight minutes off a game, that's going to add up to 15 games of minutes. So there's wear and tear on your body. If you're still getting paid for playing 82 games, then I get the stats that those would have to be modified if there's incentives in your contract that you have to reach certain numbers. But I can see positives with it. Not as many negatives. Positives for sure. Like you said, it's the Olympic experience. It's just guys are going to have to not play harder because I know a lot of them do play hard. But they're gonna have to maximize those minutes because like I said, that's the number one thing bad. And the stats, because stats, like it or not, they kind of lead to whatever else comes with contracts, etc, etc. Not for the superstars, but for other guys. Yeah, but Jamal, we want more minutes. We want you guys playing in more games. Like that's what the fan wants. They don't want load. Yeah. So I think if you can ensure that, you know, fans don't know who's playing when they go to games now. And it'd be like Lakers versus Golden State. They can't say it's Steph against LeBron because they're not sure if somebody's going to be playing. And and the worst part about that, Dan, is that kid who got tickets for Christmas three months later, right? And his favorite player or favorite two players aren't playing. It's like his Christmas was ruined three months later, right? Like he's really like, man, I didn't see this person. And that's the part that really sucks. All right, so the three point shot, everybody, it feels like there's too many of them. Do you change anything? I'm going to make you commissioner. What do you do with the three point shot? What? If you had a limit of three point shots, you could shoot the game per for per team. Then you wouldn't just have any and everybody shooting them. I'm not sure if the three point shot. That's the problem. It's the problem that we're letting anybody shoot. That's true. Yeah. I mean like when we came up, it was obviously Reggie and Ray. And they were going to shoot more threes because they were the best three point shooters. But. And Steph should shoot however many he can get up. But that's not for everybody. And the funny thing about that, Dan, is when it's the most important time, the playoffs, they're like, just move the scoreboard mid range, take whatever you can get. Layup, move that scoreboard. Because the time that's most important, every point matters. So I think it's gotten to a point where we want to see a three point shot. We just want to see it by the right people. We don't need everybody shooting three. Yeah, I brought this up a month ago. I said, what if you capped it at 25 threes per team per night? What do you think? I think every position, right. I'm like, what if we took the three point line out where it's like, okay, we're just playing twos and they're like, oh, we got to really scheme. We got to, we got to value each possession. Obviously you can't do that. We love the three point shot. It's the home running baseball. But if you can cap them, I think that could be a start. Do you believe in the Cavaliers or the Thunder? If I said you had to pick one or the other to make it to the finals, I would pick the Thunder. Okay. And the reason being is they have a bonafide. I love the Cavaliers young team. I love Donovan, Mitchell, Darry, Scarlett, Mobley. But SGA and I believe that the Thunder have a star on the sideline as well. I think coach Dagno is unbelievable. Last year coming to playoffs, we talked to so many different coaches and he was one of the ones who stood out with how, how his mind works, what he's thinking. He has total command of the game. They're lock and key. They're almost like a college team playing in the pros with how together they are. Yeah, they, how, how they move together. Look at all their interviews. I know some people talk about them, but every time except guys there and they run in a pack, you know. Well, they're, they're young, they're all under 25. I mean, they are kind of a college team. They are. With so many more picks coming in the future. Right. Like they're loaded. They always do a great job of development. I will pick the Thunder because SGA is, is the MVP type like player. How would you, what would you do to help the development of Wembanyama? Great question. I would say for him there's certain things he Just has to go through. But I, I want him to. One thing I would say is I probably would get him closer to the basket, gets to the free throw line. I think for every three he takes, if he, you know, balance that out, we're getting one free throw. So if he shoots 10 threes, get 10 free throws, and I think that will always keep his scoring, you know, balanced. It'll always be balanced. Even if he shoots 3 for 10 or 3 for, you know, 11 from three point line. If he has those 11 free throws to counteract that, I think he'll always have that sustainability. But he, he's a joy. Like he is such a treat. He's. We see the unicorn talent, but the everyday work role player qualities is what's going to really shoot him off the chart. Yeah, I think if like De'Aaron Fox I think would be really beneficial. Like he needs a true, really good point guard. Chris Paul is not going to do it. Castle is developing. But maybe De'Aaron Fox to the Spurs. I like the fact that if that's true, that Dear Fox wants to come because he's going to get players that want to come play with him. Right. And he, he's that type of unselfish superstar. Obviously the squares are the gold standard, but he's a transcending type player. And getting a player like Dear Fox is closer in age a little bit to go with that group after, you know, this run, I think would be good. What would you tell them, dp? Well, I thought he was lost in his rookie year because he was just out of place on the court offensively. He just didn't put himself in position. He was getting bodied a little bit. He needs to establish these are my comfort areas, get to those spots or getting the ball in those spots. I'm okay with him shooting threes because I like his shot. And I think he's taking nine threes this year. He was five last year. But I like that versatility of. You think I'm going to be on the perimeter, I'm going inside. I think I'd develop a little jump hook there. I would, I would get that. I'd almost study Kevin McHale and just look at all the ways that he would score. That makes it. You're even more valuable when you go to the perimeter or vice versa. Now you got to pick your poison with him. I think he's going to be the best player in the game in three years. I think, I think he'll be an MVP in three years. I think that much of Him. I just think that he sort of was lost a little bit on the floor last year. And it's amazing because I think I agree with you. I think he'll be the best player, but he. He's checking every box. Like, I guarantee you what you saying will be part of his. His palate going forward. Like, he's always trying to get better. He's always trying to learn, and he hasn't even, to me, hasn't even got his NBA meanness yet. You know what I mean? Like, he hasn't even got the. Like, I'm here. This is all just off of natural talent and having popping those guys there. When he gets his meanness, you know, 22, 23, 24. When he's like, I know I'm the best player, period. It's going to really be scary then because he will be on his way to being one of the greatest ever. How often would you notice who's in the stands when you were playing in Los Angeles or New York? Anybody famous? It was funny when I noticed it, but when the really famous people that I loved were there, I wouldn't make eye contact until I got rolling because I'd be so nervous that they were there. So I would make sure I had 10 points first. The first 10 for me in the NBA were the hardest to get. The next 10 were you. The first 10 DP were so hard to get. So I didn't make eye contact until I hit my double figure. Okay, so Jessica Alba's there and you're not even going to look at her for your first 10 points? I'm not looking at Al. No. I'm not looking at Algo. I'm not looking at Algo. I'm not looking at Jay Z. I'm not looking at Sandler. None of these guys who I really admire now did you ever look at beyond, like, you're not allowed to look at Beyonce if Jay Z's there? Well, Jay Z and I are friends, so. No, no, I'm definitely not looking at Beyonce for sure. Oh, well, Beyonce was there. Yeah. Yeah. I go introduce myself. Oh, my gosh. All right, all right. Well, you have been in movies, by the way, so you're a star there. Yeah. What were your two favorite movies you appeared in? The Longest Yard was pretty good. I arrest Sandler at the beginning. I'm a police officer and then just go with it. I'm a nightclub owner in Hawaii with Jennifer Aniston and Nicole Kidman on stage with me. Okay. Yeah. You ever. You ever hoop. I have yeah. What's his game like? He carries the ball. Oh, I don't, I don't get to carry anything. They said I'll carry for 20 years. Don't, don't. I have a problem with it, though. He carries it constantly. He's got an ugly shot. It does go in. He does. He, he's, he's a good passer and, and he's kind of a physical. He's a like a Baron Davis built guy. Like, he's going to bang around a little bit in there. And what's your game? Just don't leave me open. Oh, the guy who doesn't want the three point shots is saying, don't leave me open for the shot. Oh, yeah. I mean, I. It's, it's too easy. They've, you know, the three is easy. That's why I'd like to get rid of it. All right. I'm kind of a Peja Stojakovic. You shoot that quick? I shoot with the same results. Well, if Sandler can get around, can I get joined? Can I get invites? That next one. Could I join? Oh, Sandler would love to play hoops with you. And you, too. You got to be there, too. I don't know. I just, you know, I got to the point where I got tired of scoring. Jamal. Oh, my God. You know that. You know that feeling like, I like to go. I like to go to the carnival where the baskets are smaller, just so he's a fair shooter. You got to shoot. Yeah. I'm kind of a Mark Price kind of guy, you know? Yeah. We're going with this off the dribble quick. Maybe a Dale Ellis kind of guy. Seattle guy. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. There you go, Seattle. Hey, congrats on the NBC gig. Thank you. Very happy for you. Very happy for me. I know, obviously, you. You know the landscape. Any advice for me? There's no. You just. It, it. Just have fun with it. I mean, that's all it is. You're. You're. You're seeing the sport, you're calling the sport. You're giving people things that they may give them something that they don't see. A lot of times on tv, we tell you what you're seeing, tell me what I'm not seeing. Show me little things. And I think that's really important is tv. We get to see it. There's something that was in that shot, in that move, in that play that I didn't see, and that's where you can tell me something. That's my wheelhouse. I like it. Thank you.

What we learn what's in store tomorrow. There's another Mission Impossible out. I think this is the seventh or eighth one for Tom Cruise. Can we rename it Almost Impossible? Kind of Impossible. Nearly Impossible. Nearly Impossible. Can we. Can we stop with this Mission Impossible? Because it's not impossible. He does it every single time. Yes, Paulie. Mission Likely. Yeah, he's gonna be okay. Like, I've seen most of them. And when he's hanging on the back of the jet, I'm like, you know what? I think he's gonna make it through this scene. Yeah. Or he's on the motorcycle going off the cliff. He's. He's going to make it. Yes, yes. Do we want him to continue choosing to accept these missions once we get to a point where, like, you know what? I think I've seen enough Mission Impossible. Can we not get enough of that? Well, I'm going to guess the bottom line is how much money he's making. So that usually means you'll continue to do it. Like Equalizer with Denzel. I hope he continues to do it. I mean, it's, it's kind of an older guy, John Wick, who's not in his good shape. I like that Denzel can do a movie in another country and he doesn't have to be in shape. They, they have him wear black clothes so he's always looking, you know, he looks thinner than what he really is and he stands out. All he needs is his watch that he clicks 10 seconds and that's about it. Hey, I'm gonna go to Italy and shoot a movie and eat as much as I want and I wear baggy clothes and I'll kill people. Sign me up for that. Yeah. Yes, Dylan. I was going to say the synopsis for equalizer 3 is Denzel Washington drinks tea and takes out the Italian mafia by himself. Pretty much. Pretty much. And I'm sure there'll be an equalizer for. By the way, Caitlin Clark was in the news. She is not going to be in the three point shooting contest for the NBA All Star Game. And I agree, the WNBA All Star game is going to be in Indiana this year. So if I'm Caitlin Clark, I say to Steph Curry, why don't you come to the wnba? I don't need to go over there with you guys. If Sabrina wants to do it and somebody else, great. But this is my home court. It's the wnba. And if you could get Steph Curry to do that, that would be awesome. Maybe Larry Bird is in Indiana and maybe Larry would stop over the game. But that's when you do a home and home. If I'm Caitlin Clark and I'm glad she's turning down things because she could easily have 10 commercials on. She could be the female Peyton Manning or Patrick Mahomes, but I think do less. Make sure you're ready for this season like she was at the second half of the season. And, and she said the right things with the Olympic team. She wasn't worthy of being on the Olympic team. And then people wanted to use her as a promotional tool and she said, no, I want to. I want to earn it. I'll be there in Los Angeles. So I think that she's getting good advice and I agree. Have Steph Curry come to the WNBA All Star game in a three point shooting contest. That would be fun. I think that that would be a smart business decision for the wnba. Alrighty. Dylan, final results of the poll question. All right, then. It was what subject should they stop doing documentaries on? O.J. simpson tearing away with it at 46%. Paulie this day in sports history, just one. But this shows what a big star this gentleman was at his peak. No offense. In 2000, the New York Mets announced that Garth Brooks would begin training with the team in February. Spring training. Wasn't he a third baseman? He had a nice glove. Yeah. Let me see. Todd, what'd you learn today? Nuggets head coach Mike Malone says the notion of 10 minute quarters or a four point line would be like Barnum and Bailey. We don't want the circus. Dylan, Would you learn? You gotta have an enforcer at your wedding. Marvin Warren Moon had the prettiest balls. Paul I can't top that. Hottest rookies, biggest superstars, all time greats.
