00:00It's tough for me to go without Fitz when I'm watching a Warrior game.
00:03Well, I told you to, all you gotta do is go to Macy's or somewhere and get you something
00:06nice.
00:07What are you talking about?
00:08You said Fitz.
00:09Bob Fitzgerald.
00:10Now, back to Steiny and Guru on 95.7 The Game.
00:16This is the crossover brought to you by Abundant Life, Abundant Life Weight Loss.
00:20They know the secret to losing up to a pound of fat every day, go to AbundantLifeWeightLoss.com.
00:26You guys are great.
00:28You guys should do a show together.
00:30I was really concerned.
00:31He said it's Fitz.
00:32I go, dude, go get you a sucker.
00:33He said Bobby Fitz.
00:34I get it.
00:35Is that fresh?
00:36Was that from today?
00:37I was just gonna say, I haven't heard that one before.
00:38That's a good one.
00:39That's pretty good.
00:40That's a really good one.
00:41How you guys doing?
00:42Great.
00:43Great.
00:44Fill out your brackets?
00:45No.
00:46Here we go.
00:47Let's get started.
00:48For me, that's not a Monday endeavor.
00:49Well, we got tomorrow.
00:50It starts.
00:51You can still play after that.
00:52I'm not doing the first four.
00:53Stupid playing thing.
00:54It's part of it, though.
00:55I know.
00:56I'll bet on those separately.
00:57I'm not putting my bracket together on Monday night because of the first four in Dayton.
00:58I gotta let it marinate.
00:59How did it graduate to that, dude?
01:00It starts Thursday at nine.
01:01Yeah, it does.
01:02But, I mean, get comfortable now with Sunday.
01:03It's Monday.
01:04It's Monday.
01:05It's Monday.
01:06It's Monday.
01:07It's Monday.
01:08It's Monday.
01:09It's Monday.
01:10It's Monday.
01:11It's Monday.
01:12It's Monday.
01:13It's Monday.
01:14It's Monday.
01:15It's Monday.
01:16It's Monday.
01:17It's Monday.
01:18It's Monday.
01:19It's Monday.
01:20So, get comfortable now with 68 teams, but they are going to expand it.
01:24Of course.
01:25Come on.
01:26Well, yeah.
01:27And they've expanded it over time.
01:28And I think that they're gonna get to, I don't know if the next number is 80, but 80 feels
01:32about right.
01:33That way you'd give four in each bracket a buy.
01:38And then, so, there wouldn't be a first four.
01:40It would be where the top four seeds in each bracket would get a buy.
01:44And you'd have 64 play and then 16 wait.
01:47So I think 80 is where they're gonna get next.
01:49Wow.
01:50Can we still fit the bracket on one piece of paper?
01:53Oh, it's getting tight.
01:54It is getting tight.
01:55It's getting tight.
01:56We're gonna need some readers.
01:57Those brackets are gonna get pretty small.
01:59I don't know about that.
02:00Yep.
02:01That's scary.
02:02Oh, man.
02:03Yeah, I'll probably be in three different brackets, but not the one that Lucas runs.
02:07Just so I can...
02:08Why?
02:09Why not?
02:10You are...
02:11Why?
02:12Let me stop.
02:13It's a company one.
02:14Why?
02:15Right.
02:16Right.
02:17It's our friends.
02:18Right.
02:20I get you.
02:21He's out.
02:22When I get him, you're out.
02:23You're invited to the party.
02:24I get it.
02:25Yeah.
02:26Why?
02:27I don't want to.
02:28Why?
02:29I mean, there are a number of different reasons.
02:30I'd love to hear them.
02:31One, I asked about the scoring system and I was given no answer, which tells me that...
02:37Well, then ask again.
02:38I did.
02:39And he said, I'm open to suggestions.
02:40Wait a minute.
02:41We don't know what the score...
02:42Where'd he go?
02:43I know it's winner take all.
02:44Yes.
02:45That's reason number two.
02:46You're right.
02:47What's wrong with that?
02:48Winner take all.
02:49Winner take all?
02:50Yeah.
02:51So if you come in second, you get nothing?
02:52I don't like that.
02:53Okay.
02:54I don't like it.
02:55Okay?
02:56That's fine.
02:57I don't like it.
02:58You don't have to like it.
02:59Which is why I'm not doing it.
03:00You have been hanging out with a two-year-old, haven't you?
03:01Oh, dear man.
03:02I don't want to.
03:03I don't like it.
03:04I don't like...
03:05I don't like it.
03:06The thing about my two-year-old is her L's are Y's, so it's, I don't yike that.
03:10Nice.
03:11I love it.
03:12What's Yukon's seeding?
03:13Yukon?
03:14I want to say six.
03:15They got a little number next to them.
03:16Yeah.
03:17I don't got anyone first, Donnie.
03:18All right.
03:19Yeah.
03:20They're not six, are they?
03:21I thought.
03:22I got a couple.
03:23I got Florida winning.
03:24They're an eight.
03:25Yukon's an eight.
03:26Oh, wow.
03:27Yeah.
03:28Okay.
03:29Whatever.
03:30I will say this, and you can either take it or leave it.
03:32It's just my opinion, but this feels to me like a very chalk heavy year.
03:37Chalky year.
03:38There's a lot of...
03:39What does that mean?
03:40That means that the good teams are really, really good, and the bad teams are not that
03:46good.
03:48There's a couple of the bad teams, the mid-majors, who I think you should keep your eye on, but
03:53for the majority of them, you watch over the weekend, and the bad teams, and I apologize,
03:57Mark, for giving you Maine.
03:58That was a loss.
03:59It's okay.
04:00I had a little run going.
04:02I was giving them winner after winner after winner.
04:04I gave them Maine, and they got motorboated.
04:06But I kind of...
04:08There was something about the text message where I just...
04:13I want some credit for following my gut.
04:15Yeah.
04:16Oh, yeah.
04:17And it was a W, and there was a W, and there was a W, and we're making money, and he goes,
04:21Oh, man.
04:22Here's the next one.
04:23And I looked at it, and it just had some clouds around that text.
04:26Yeah, you're right.
04:27So I was like, I'm going to bet it, but I'm not going to bet it all.
04:30Yep.
04:31And it was an L.
04:32It was.
04:33So we didn't zero out the account.
04:34Good.
04:35All right.
04:36We bounce back with liberty.
04:37I don't think I texted you that, but watching over the weekend, the top seven or eight teams
04:42in the country are really, really, really good.
04:45Okay.
04:46Florida and Duke, when they get Cooper flagged back.
04:49They're amazing.
04:50Houston.
04:51Houston is awesome.
04:52Alabama's a bit of a question mark.
04:53Tennessee.
04:54Tennessee's really good.
04:55Auburn?
04:56I like Auburn, but...
04:57They're cold.
04:58Yeah.
04:59And I mean, they're kind of...
05:00They're not a one-trick pony.
05:01Jani Broome is the player of the year, but...
05:03Is it Jani?
05:04Yes.
05:05Okay.
05:06Yeah, yeah, yeah.
05:07I thought...
05:08Yeah, we called him Johnny.
05:09It's okay.
05:10Johnny.
05:11Johnny Moore.
05:12Can't make a foul shot.
05:13No.
05:14And that's another thing you need to look at.
05:16Is your team deep?
05:17Are they senior-laden?
05:18And can they make a free throw?
05:20That's a lot of times what this comes down to, but I do think when you get down to that
05:23second tier of teams, there is a big gap this year as opposed to previous years.
05:28Who's your 12 that's beating a five, Dibs?
05:31I've got one, two, three, four.
05:37They're all going to win.
05:38What?
05:39Sorry, Randy.
05:40Dibs, come on.
05:41I don't...
05:42Oregon goes down.
05:43No chance.
05:44You can't say it's going to be chalky and in the next sentence tell me that all the
05:47five seeds are losing in round one.
05:50Chalky meaning like your final four, your last eight teams are probably going to be
05:54ones and twos.
05:55Okay.
05:56So of the rest of it, Liberty is going to beat Oregon.
06:00Apologies, Grandy.
06:01Liberty, if you watch...
06:02I'll bet you.
06:03I watched the last three games of Liberty.
06:05They've got a kid, I think it's either McNeely or he's about 6'1", pudgy little white guy.
06:12He shoots Steph Curry threes, 30-footers, 35-footers.
06:16Who are the other five, 12 seeds?
06:19One of the 12 seeds is favored.
06:21Middle Tennessee State is always a 12 seed.
06:24Colorado State is minus two and a half against Memphis.
06:27Wow.
06:28They're favored to win the game.
06:29There are 12.
06:30You can go ahead and lock that up now.
06:32I've already actually bet that one because Penny Hardaway is a terrible coach.
06:37Memphis is a massive disappointment.
06:39Then how are you five?
06:41They win a lot of games in a pretty soft conference.
06:44They were in the AAC, I believe, and they won it.
06:48They won the regular season.
06:49They won the tournament.
06:50Memphis is... they're a fraud.
06:53Penny Hardaway is a joke.
06:54Michigan is only favored by two and a half over a plucky upstart, UC San Diego.
06:59If you look at UC San Diego...
07:00Michigan should have lost to Maryland.
07:02I watched that game.
07:03Let the point guard get a misread, inbound the ball, four seconds go all the way and
07:07finish him.
07:08Two bigs just sitting there.
07:09What happened?
07:11I couldn't go.
07:12UC San Diego, 30-4 on the year, and they are 26-8 against the spread.
07:20That's what we like.
07:21They are number one in the country against the spread.
07:27I already gave you Liberty over Oregon.
07:29Apologies, Grandy.
07:31The other one is McNeese State.
07:33McNeese against Clemson.
07:35Biggest underdog of the 12 seeds.
07:37Correct.
07:38But if you follow McNeese...
07:39Seven and a half point underdog.
07:40If you followed McNeese, as I have followed McNeese, 27 win team, they've got a lot of
07:46experience.
07:47They're a team that won the regular season and the tournament.
07:49I believe this is their second straight tournament.
07:52The Roadrunners?
07:53McNeese?
07:54I don't have the nickname.
07:55I don't know.
07:56Roadrunners?
07:57McNeese?
07:58Yeah.
07:59They won the league last year, and they won the league this year.
08:01But one thing to be cautious about, and we can get off this, but last year of the 25
08:07small conferences, so outside the big six, those winners of their conferences were five
08:13and 20 in the first round.
08:15So all those teams last year that won their tournament, and everybody wants a Cinderella,
08:21Yale was one of the ones who won.
08:22Yale's back in it.
08:23So if you're looking for an upstart team, Yale.
08:26No St. Mary's?
08:27Go.
08:28Ask me again if I've filled out my bracket yet.
08:30Have you filled out your bracket?
08:31No.
08:32Do you see why?
08:33I need to sit and listen to stuff like this.
08:34He believes it.
08:35Yeah, but that don't mean he's right.
08:36No, it doesn't.
08:37But he's got a lot better chance than me of being right, because I can name Cooper Flag
08:42end of list of college basketball players that I can tell you.
08:45End of list.
08:46But this is what you give Granny the pen, and she can figure it out not knowing anything.
08:49Well, I may do that too.
08:50And it'll probably do better than the guy that doesn't know it all.
08:52I got ladies in my life.
08:53We could just give them a pen.
08:55I could let my 16-year-old daughter fill this thing out if we want.
08:57But if we want you in the Lucas bracket, just, I'm all about camaraderie, man.
09:01I want you there.
09:02Cool.
09:03Yeah.
09:04He'll take that under advisement.
09:06Yeah.
09:07Yeah.
09:08Juice is back.
09:09You stay.
09:10What's going on?
09:11Hi.
09:12And no Jordan Mason.
09:13So, I mean.
09:14Well.
09:15What is going on in the world?
09:16What I wrote when Juice re-signed was, I am happy and so confused.
09:24That is honest as you can be.
09:25I'm so confused.
09:26I don't know.
09:27I appreciate that honesty.
09:28Yeah.
09:29Somewhere along the line last week, I just got confused.
09:33That does not mean that I don't think the Niners have a plan.
09:38I don't suddenly think that they're stupid, nefarious human beings.
09:42That's not what's going on here.
09:44But whatever the plan is, I don't know it.
09:46And I don't know many people who do.
09:48It has not shown itself yet.
09:51And unfortunately, it may have more to do with money than it has in the past at any
09:57point in this era.
09:58And I think for fans, that sucks.
10:02I...
10:03Yeah.
10:04Alright.
10:05It's possible.
10:06It's possible.
10:07I mean, they gotta have some sort of a plan, right?
10:09But I don't want to say Niner fans are spoiled because they spent, like Joe Lacob for the
10:13last five to six years and should have two Super Bowls.
10:16But so, can Niner fan really be, oh, what's going on here or this is just the evolution
10:22of A?
10:23No.
10:24They absolutely can.
10:25I think.
10:26Kyle Comey just wrote something on Twitter earlier today that said, if you want to compliment
10:30them for what they've done for the last six years, then that's disingenuous if you don't
10:35then criticize them now.
10:37Oh.
10:38Like, what?
10:39So, it's real out here.
10:40People will...
10:41Like, I can't...
10:43If I compliment you for something and then you stop doing it, I'm going to stop complimenting
10:47you.
10:48Yeah.
10:49Right?
10:50Yes.
10:51I mean, what can they do except build through the draft now?
10:54Well, that's a...
10:55I mean, I get there are free agents out there.
10:57You could have done that anyway.
10:58Right.
11:00You could have spent more money.
11:01Man.
11:02You could have spent more money.
11:03And you're going to have to pay your quarterback.
11:04So, we think.
11:05Right?
11:06So, we think.
11:07So, we think.
11:08Yeah.
11:09I mean, this is amazing.
11:10If they were to do all this and not pay Brock, then now I'm really like...
11:12But this looks like you're not going to pay Brock if his name was Tom.
11:15No, but I...
11:16Like, see, I think it does look like they're going to pay Brock.
11:19That's the point.
11:20That's the point.
11:21They're like...
11:22The cash out thing, they felt had to stop.
11:26Man.
11:27Bleeding money.
11:28And they know that that big one is coming.
11:31So, they turned the faucet off on the rest.
11:34But...
11:35Wow.
11:36Hold on.
11:37Hold on a sec.
11:38Yeah.
11:39What's up?
11:40Man.
11:41I have a question about your show.
11:42It's a new read.
11:43It's a new read.
11:44It's not really about your show.
11:45It's about something you guys said today.
11:46Okay.
11:47Well, first of all, you're listening to 95.7 The Game, KGMZ FM and HD1 San Francisco, always
11:52live on the free Odyssey app, Twitch and YouTube powered by First NorCal Credit Union.
11:57By the way, I was looking for that when you said, do they have a plan?
12:03Nobody talked and I said, it's possible.
12:05I had no idea what I was reacting to because I was already in a little bit of a tizzy.
12:09What a great standby response that it's for everything.
12:11Man, it's possible.
12:12You also should probably mention that we're now broadcasting from the Laughing Monk Studios.
12:17Absolutely.
12:18Which is pretty awesome.
12:19Yes, it is.
12:20We've done that a few times today.
12:22All right.
12:23What did we do wrong, Willard?
12:25Jimmy Butler is automatically the MVP of the team now because they started winning when
12:30he showed up.
12:31Oh, yeah.
12:32It's Steph washing his car when the diplomat showed up.
12:35I mean, it's a faulty premise.
12:37What do you mean?
12:38It's not fair.
12:39No, no, no.
12:40Nobody's whining.
12:41For you to do that, you would need to know what the Warriors looked like with Jimmy and
12:49without Steph.
12:50Oh, they would have.
12:54Be authentic.
12:55I mean, one second.
12:56Mexican food.
12:57Be authentic for one second.
12:58Did they get the Jimmy Butler from this past year in Miami?
13:02They get the Jimmy Butler they have.
13:05That's who he is.
13:06Answer him.
13:07He's being authentic.
13:08I think kind of around him.
13:09So they're about 500.
13:11You tell me.
13:12Yeah, I think.
13:13I don't know how.
13:14With no Curry, Stiney.
13:15With no Steph.
13:16What would this team look like?
13:17They have a winning record without him this year.
13:19That's true.
13:20That's true.
13:21I'm sorry.
13:22Call Adam Silver.
13:23He can turn those numbers around if no, I mean, it's a good question.
13:31I don't know.
13:32And the whole Butler thing was tongue in cheek.
13:37But the thing we all have to be shocked about is nobody saw this coming.
13:42Oh, not even close.
13:44Exactly.
13:45Helen Keller.
13:46And favored tonight and favored tomorrow.
13:49Supposed to win.
13:50I don't know who's playing tonight on either of these teams yet, which obviously.
13:53I hate that.
13:54That's a league problem.
13:55Um, maybe.
13:56Maybe.
13:57I mean, I think like Steph's actually got him.
14:01He's got a little injury there.
14:04And if I'm the Nuggets and let Jordan Poole walk me off at home when you should have been
14:07walking off on Lakers Friday, I'm thinking, yeah, hey, Stiney, you know, my toes nagging
14:12me.
14:13But dammit, we need a win.
14:14And I'm tired of the way the NBA works.
14:17That's the problem.
14:18That's not the way the NBA works.
14:19I need to ask the problem.
14:20I will say I've watched a lot.
14:22I don't know why they've been on national TV a lot lately.
14:25I've been watching a lot of Denver Nuggets ball.
14:27They had an interesting schedule lately.
14:30There's something's wrong.
14:31We have no doubt.
14:33Even with Jokic.
14:34Something is absolutely.
14:35Even when they win, like when Durant sent him to overtime, they beat the Suns.
14:40But I get it.
14:41In overtime.
14:42When the Suns aren't even trying to play basketball, Sacramento took him to a very close game,
14:47led them for two and a half quarters, Minnesota dismissed them last week.
14:52You are absolutely dismiss them.
14:54And now and then you beat the Lakers by five when the Lakers had no plan was I couldn't
14:59believe on and you beat him by five and then you lose to the Wizards in your own building.
15:05Something is very wrong with Scott Hastings on earlier and he kind of wasn't a malaise.
15:10What did he call it?
15:11But he said there was concern.
15:12No, bitch.
15:13He said they really miss Aaron Gordon.
15:16He's a real wide killer, too, but he played the Lakers game.
15:20They almost lost.
15:21I, you know what I see with them?
15:23What do you guys think of this too much?
15:25When they know it's not that.
15:26But as soon as they want a title, they don't look motivated anymore.
15:31How would you all react if LeBron or Steph said the stuff that Jokic says, which is like,
15:37well, well, I mean, it's fun to go to the finals, but I'd really rather be at home still
15:42balling than I have no problem because he is not the way he'd lost game seven on his
15:46own floor in round two.
15:50But he's bringing it and the others aren't.
15:52That's stats.
15:53Porter Jr.
15:54Like every Murray hit miss.
15:57If Jokic were American, he would have taken so much criticism the last year and a half.
16:02What about the numbers he's putting up?
16:04He's doing his job.
16:05Numbers are numbers.
16:06Yeah.
16:07I love it.
16:08And they're just a thin team right now.
16:10There we go.
16:11They've got no bench.
16:12And honestly, the biggest part is what you're talking about, Goo.
16:16It's an NBA problem, which it's motivation.
16:18If you're Denver, what's your motivation?
16:20You're not going to be the one.
16:22And if you're the two, the three or the four, fine, then, you know, who will we play in
16:26April?
16:27And then we'll rev up in April.
16:28And right now you look at the game against Washington and who they played off the bench.
16:32They had eight bench points, 123 and eight of those came off the bench.
16:38So, you know, Jokic is probably carrying more of a burden than he wants.
16:42And for who and for what right now in the regular season?
16:45Yeah, I kind of agree.
16:48On the one hand, I kind of like the play in.
16:51On the other hand, I don't.
16:54And one of the reasons I don't like the play in is because I do think if a team's at seven
17:00or eight, they're like, that's fine.
17:03We'll win a game.
17:04But the problem this year is going to have is right now there's a three team tie.
17:09Second, third, fourth.
17:11You watch.
17:12You watch the finagling that'll be done.
17:15The last two weeks of the season.
17:17And I don't know if the Warriors will be in on it or not.
17:19They might, if there are five or six, they may, they may want to try to control something
17:25too.
17:26I mean, you want to stay out of the seven.
17:27I agree with me out of the seven, but I'm like, like, you think LeBron's really hurt
17:33right now?
17:34Um, he looked fine in Sacramento rooting for us on Friday night.
17:38Do I think he's like really, really hurt?
17:41Maybe not.
17:42I don't think he's 100% healthy.
17:44But I mean, the Lakers were the two seed and they are now like the Lakers could end up
17:48in the play.
17:49Well, they want, they got the Spurs tonight and they won last night.
17:52So yeah, because the rest of their team came back, like they were missing a bunch of people.
17:57So they're probably fine.
17:59There's a little breathing room there, but with the way the Warriors and Wolves are playing,
18:03if I'm, if I'm LeBron, would you rather let's say Houston stays hot?
18:09Would you rather the Warriors be seven and get the Rockets at two?
18:14Or the Warriors solidly in there at six and get the Nuggets at three.
18:18I'd rather be solidly in there at six and get the Nuggets.
18:20And you had a caller earlier and I can't remember his name, but he's like, give me the toughest
18:24road they've ever had.
18:26You were mentioning like this team is beyond a need for validation and you're right.
18:32And I don't ever really buy into that anyway.
18:34Like you play who you play in the playoffs.
18:37And if another team has an injured guy, like when they won the chip a few years back and
18:42you avoided Phoenix, Phoenix was, oh, they're so good.
18:45And Phoenix got knocked out by Dallas.
18:47And so you didn't have to play him.
18:48It doesn't matter to me.
18:49That doesn't give you an asterisk on a title based on the road.
18:54But I did like the caller who's like, give me OKC, give me Denver, give me the Lakers
18:58and give me Boston.
18:59I want them all.
19:00And it's like, well, that that would be fun.
19:03I'm here for it.
19:04Yeah.
19:05I'm kind of with you.
19:06I feel like if the Warriors somehow, what would be, what would they luck into the Rockets
19:11in the first round?
19:12I mean, it's not like they're any real easy teams.
19:15They're going to have to beat Oklahoma City.
19:17OK, they beat him because they're a little inexperienced.
19:20The one thing that can happen, like I'm with you, I don't I don't care who they play.
19:25If they win a title, they win a title.
19:28What I do think is a little different is when somebody gets hurt in the first round and
19:33then all of a sudden the second round matchup is completely different than it would have
19:38been or should have been.
19:40Right.
19:41Now you're going to win that series because Denver lost Yoke.
19:44And remember, I think it was the first year they won the title when Zaza staggered into
19:48Kawhi Leonard when he was shooting a three and the Warriors were down 25 in that game.
19:54And that's going to do it for Kawhi.
19:56And then now the Warriors beat the Spurs, a team that they had a whole bunch of trouble
19:59against and, you know, shout out Zaza, forever warrior.
20:03But that nowadays, that's a flagrant, probably a flagrant too.
20:07But in that moment, Kawhi got hurt and the Spurs weren't the same.
20:11Still take a flagrant, too, if you knew he was going to win the series for you.
20:15Probably.
20:16No doubt.
20:17I had a theory for Stiney.
20:18It's not a concern.
20:19But Jimmy Butler, what was it, his last three games, his shots were 10, 10 shots, five shots
20:24and 11 Saturday.
20:25And after the game, like the soldier he is, he says, oh, that will pick up playoff time.
20:31And the guru computer went off like, that's great.
20:34And I expect it.
20:35I'm not concerned because I know you can do it.
20:37You've done it.
20:38But is there a little part of me wondering what will the Willard and Dibbs do when normally
20:43I'm kicking it to you as we get down the stretch to the booties of the world, the Comingas
20:48or whoever, the Santos.
20:50And now that ball's not coming.
20:51I'm not worried about Jimmy, but I'm worried about how will Mark respond if maybe you will.
20:57You know what I mean?
20:58Yeah.
20:59Two questions.
21:00Did you just call us bench players?
21:01No.
21:02That's what it sounded like.
21:03Never that.
21:05And second question, did he say, I'll score come playoff time?
21:10Or did he say, I'll score when I need to?
21:13Which was it?
21:14When I need to.
21:15I want to say both.
21:16I just take it as the shots.
21:17That's a genuine question.
21:18Yeah.
21:19The reporter asked him about the shots.
21:20I don't remember.
21:21Right.
21:22And I thought it was.
21:23And he said, they'll go up.
21:24I took it as they'll go up come playoff time.
21:26I took it as they'll go up when they need to.
21:28And right now they don't.
21:30They don't.
21:31Like that's what Jimmy does.
21:32He's assessing the situation on every possession.
21:35So when you do that, the byproduct is maybe, and I'm wondering out loud, hey, Moody, you
21:41might not get as many as I've been giving you.
21:44Stiney, you might not.
21:45And it might be seamless.
21:47Yeah.
21:48Nothing to see here.
21:49But what if you're like, that throws you off.
21:50The other guy.
21:51I don't know, man.
21:52If they're going to win something, everybody's mind needs to be in that space already.
21:56You can do it.
21:57Do it.
21:58You're not worried about who's getting what.
22:01If that's in your mindset, you're not set to win.
22:04You know what I mean?
22:05That's why I keep saying I've been more impressed by what Kaminga's been doing off the court
22:11than what he's been doing on the court since he came back.
22:13His attitude is right in the right place.
22:15I'm just really blown away by the fact that the Warriors can win in so many different
22:20ways.
22:21They won a game against a tough New York team and the kitty cat was eaten and Draymond was
22:26in his head and all the rest of it.
22:28They scored 97 points and they won.
22:30And they scored 130 in back-to-back games.
22:33They can go end-to-end.
22:34They can play a slowdown, grinder game.
22:37This team can win in a number of different ways.
22:40And that's what struck me on Saturday because that was the kind of game that was perfect
22:45for New York.
22:46That's a Coach Thibbs kind of game.
22:49If they had Brunson, no Dibbs, am I foul for thinking if they had Brunson it might have
22:52been different?
22:53Might have been.
22:54But, I mean, you never know.
22:55They didn't and they lost.
22:56Might have been worse.
22:58Might have been worse because Kapp probably wouldn't have been as aggressive.
23:01Yeah.
23:02And that's always my takeaway.
23:04It's like the whole, like, you can't control that.
23:06Yeah, you can't control it.
23:07If he can't play, if he can't go, then that's the deal.
23:11And that's where we are in the NBA schedule.
23:12I'm not saying that he isn't hurt, but like LeBron, in a month, if this was a playoff
23:18game, he'd be playing.
23:19No doubt.
23:20No doubt about it.
23:21And that's why I want to see Denver come in here at full strength tonight because they're
23:25a team that, with Gordon, with Porter, and with Jokic, that's a big front line.
23:31And they've owned the Warriors.
23:32That's one area that we're going to have to see more of the Warriors because they're still
23:36not a big team.
23:37But what's the current report?
23:39What's the exact current report on those guys?
23:42No pods and questionable for the three.
23:45Gordon is questionable, Jokic is questionable, Murray's questionable, Curry is questionable.
23:51They're all questionable.
23:53Still up to the minute.
23:54I'm going to come out there tomorrow to see Giannis, hopefully Steph is in there.
23:56You're going tomorrow?
23:57Yeah.
23:58See Dame.
23:59Are you going?
24:00No.
24:01Oh.
24:02I'm going to go Thursday.
24:03Who do they play Thursday?
24:04Raptors.
24:05Oh, OK.
24:06Alright.
24:07That was this game last year where they got booed off the floor.
24:08Raptors and Pelicans.
24:09The thing was over in the first quarter.
24:10Bam!
24:11You could hear those boos coming.
24:12You could hear those boos coming right through.
24:13They were so bad.
24:14To 95-7, the game.
