00:00coach the all-star game is it going by the way of the pro bowl where there's no way we
00:05can save
00:06this thing or do you think again there's going to be some modifications to the all-star game
00:11are they going to try to try to save this thing unlike the pro bowl in the nfl
00:16dan i gotta be honest with you i said this two years ago and you can go look at it
00:23on on all
00:24my appearances i said the only way to save the all-star game is to go usa world and my
00:31thought
00:31was was like okay if you did it on not the years where we have the olympics or fever that
00:37would kind
00:38of get people interested but now you're here this is dead the only chance i think they should have
00:45put more money in there kind of like they do with the with the in-season tournament but i've also
00:51said
00:51this the team that should win if you line the teams up it's the world team and they don't even
00:57have yannis and that's the thing if we're going to and i and i'm i'm almost 50 right so to
01:04me i look at
01:05like you said 88 slam dunk contest you know dominique versus jordan same year larry bird shoots
01:13the three puts his one finger up as he's walking back as he makes it i don't even know half
01:18of these
01:19guys that are in the slam dunk contest and the three-point shootout and i'm an analyst so to me
01:25if i don't know who half of these guys are until you get the best to be in the three
01:30-point shootout
01:31to be in the slam dunk contest that's the only chance you save it then the best part of the
01:37all-star weekend last couple years honestly was sabrina nescue versus steph curry because we got
01:43in the three-point contest and he almost lost so to me that's the only way we could save it
01:50best
01:50guy's got to be appalled and not the skills challenge the real stuff and then can we get
01:56some damn defense on tomorrow night please for the country coach throw this at me here um you know
02:05how much is load management played into the mentality of today's nba in your opinion i mean
02:11you know if i'm if i'm a person that's going to go buy an nba ticket and i show up
02:16with my kid and
02:17all of a sudden that guy's not in the building how much of that attitude do you think has been
02:21carried
02:21am i am i only get off my lawn here you know jordan constantly i watched him talk about load
02:27management
02:27he goes you know i played 82 basketball games almost every single year of my career and i had a
02:33love
02:33of the game clause in my contract would meant i'm going to play the game no matter what has that
02:38really damaged the game in your opinion it has damaged the game but dan unfortunately this is
02:44where we are and this is where it's going to be so we have to deal with it you even
02:48see it a little
02:49bit in college basketball darren peterson against byu didn't play literally the last 17 minutes of a
02:54game they almost blew it because they were worried about his minutes so to me we're we're here dan and
03:00that's the unfortunate thing the thing that bothers me more is the tanking and you saw it on full
03:06display with the utah jazz over a week ago where they're winning and they don't play marketing jerry
03:12jackson jr key after george in the fourth quarter to lose a game and now jerry jackson you see with
03:17dallas we're going ready for this right now dallas watch we're gonna and i quote we're going to sit
03:23anthony davis as he prepares for the 26 27 season dan that's nine months from now look what you want
03:33to
03:33wait for next year so that's my bigger problem is this but hopefully the nba will start to figure
03:38this out because they're ruining the product in regard to what the people are watching this isn't
03:44a get off our lawn this is fact and there's got to be changes particularly with the tanking
03:48you
