00:00So, Dave, sports, what's going on, man?
00:02Okay, we are going to start with basketball, where the 76ers lost to the Mavericks last night, 133-126.
00:11And it was all about Dallas' two superstars, Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, as Luka had 42 points, and Kyrie scored 40, 82 points from just two guys, and that was that.
00:24The Sixers fall to 40-22. Still good for third place, though, in the Eastern Conference.
00:29That's the third who came from the Nets, right?
00:30Oh, yeah, it's Kyrie.
00:32Right, okay.
00:32He went to Dallas, and everyone's wondering how he's going to fit in, because Luka is a sensational young player, but he also needs the ball in his hands a lot, because he's an oversized point guard, essentially.
00:44Kyrie likes the ball, too.
00:46And Kyrie needs the ball in his hands a lot, so everyone's like, what's good?
00:48Now, so far, Kyrie has deferred, because this guy, Luka, he's an MVP candidate the last two or three years, and he's also 25, 26.
00:58Right.
00:59And he's the leader of the team, so Luka, you know, he's going to take over, and Kyrie's going to defer.
01:04If this keeps happening, who the hell knows?
01:06Yeah.
01:07All right.
01:07But isn't it weird?
01:08This is what Kyrie had with LeBron all those years ago, where LeBron was the guy, and Kyrie, you know, did not need the ball in his hands, and they won an NBA championship.
01:18Mm-hmm.
01:18And that's when, you know, things were normal, and then he just became a head case everywhere else.
01:22Well, the world was flat.
01:23Yeah.
01:24The Knicks and Nets were inactive.
01:26Tonight, the Knicks take on the Heat in Miami.
01:30The Knicks go into the game on a seven-game winning streak, where they've played their best basketball all year.
01:37Their record is up to 37-27, fifth in the East.
01:41The Nets go against the Celtics.
01:43They're 2-8 in their last 10 games.
01:46Hockey, the Rangers fell to the Senators last night, 5-3.
01:50The Devils and Flyers were off this evening.
01:53The Devils faced the Golden Knights in Las Vegas.
01:55The Flyers next play on Sunday, when they take on the Red Wings in Philly.
01:59Baseball spring training, the Yankees crushed the Pirates 9-1 to improve to 5-2 this spring.
02:05The Mets lost to the Braves 6-2.
02:08Phillies got blasted by the Red Sox 15-3.
02:10Football sources are saying that the New York Giants and superstar running back Saquon Barkley could be close to finalizing a deal for Saquon to return to the G-Men.
02:21No word yet on the pay in years of the contract.
02:24What about that?
02:24But sources are also saying that the Giants and quarterback Daniel Jones are still very much far apart on terms of a new deal.
02:32Apparently, reports of Daniel Jones asking the Giants for $45 million a season for a multi-year deal are true.
02:41So not worth it.
02:42Yeah.
02:42He is not worth that money.
02:44That number is crazy, and that has to be what the Giants are balking at.
02:50I don't think this takes a genius to theorize that even the Giants are like, excuse me, 45, where you're practically in Patrick Mahomes territory.
03:01Right, right.
03:01Keep that in mind.
03:03I mean, he's not even close to that.
03:04Video game numbers, the two Super Bowls and two MVPs now that Mahomes has, and that you want that.
03:12After watching him in that game against the Eagles, completely confused.
03:17He's been the best player in the league for the last five years.
03:20That's crazy.
03:21So we can't have that, but the Giants can franchise Daniel Jones for what sources believe around $32 million for this upcoming season, and maybe they're going to think about doing that.
03:33That is your quick look at sports.
03:35This is, boy, wouldn't it be funny if the Giants end up with Aaron Rodgers somehow?
03:40And the Jets got Daniel Jones.
03:43Oh, my God.
03:45Hey, I'll take anybody at this point.
03:47It's going to be better than where I'm at right now as a Jets fan.
03:50This is the Rad Radio News of the Day coming up after STP on the Rad.
