00:00It is Monday, which means we take a look at things that took place on the weekend and
00:05ask a probing question.
00:07Can we say that?
00:08David.
00:18Okay, busy weekend.
00:20What do you have?
00:21Can we say that David is screwed and...
00:25No, I'm just kidding.
00:26No, no, no.
00:27Can we say that Wimbayama should be suspended for another game for throwing the elbow, but
00:35the only reason he is not is because the NBA is wrestling.
00:38It's not a real league.
00:39It's a junk product, and they're a wholly unserious leadership group.
00:43Wimbayama, look, first of all...
00:45If that was Draymond or Beef Stew...
00:46Yeah, I agree, but they have reputations, and they're not as important to the league
00:50as Wimbayama.
00:51Second of all, when are we just going to do something about teams like the Pistons and
00:54T-Wolves?
00:54Stop trying to muck it all up and play the damn sport the way it's supposed to be played.
00:59But Wimbayama, you can't retaliate.
01:01Look, he is getting bludgeoned.
01:03He said, I've had enough, right?
01:06I got a lot of problems with you people, and now you're going to hear it.
01:09Like, the T-Wolves are dirty, and Nas Reed is dirty.
01:13So guess what?
01:14Wimbayama went 1987.
01:15The problem?
01:16He had to be ejected from the game.
01:19But there's no world they're taking him out of this series.
01:23You know it's bad when he did it and said, yep, I did it.
01:27I'm leaving.
01:28He goes, what does that mean?
01:29Oh, I'm ejected?
01:30Okay.
01:31Okay.
01:31But I mean, bottom line...
01:32No fighting, no arguing, no nothing.
01:34I also blame the way the game's officiated.
01:37I think it's an absurdity allowed the T-Wolves to play the way they're playing.
01:41And all Piston fans who get sensitive, no, no, no.
01:43You got a guy of your own who's a Nas Reed agitator, and you know who it is.
01:47It's beef stew.
01:48Same thing with Asura Thompson.
01:50Like, look, you can love it because it's your team.
01:53The rest of the league hates you.
01:55It's the same thing with the T-Wolves.
01:58That's the problem.
01:59But Wimbayama took the bait, so he had to pay the price.
02:03He did.
02:04He had enough early, and now they're 2-2.
02:06David?
02:08He said it all.
02:09He's right.
02:09They didn't suspend him because he's Wimby.
02:12They want him in that series.
02:13Yeah, and let's face it.
02:14A team like Minnesota, the league doesn't care about.
02:17They're like, you get six games.
02:19That's more than we thought you were going to get anyway.
02:22Can we say that Philadelphia had a rough weekend this weekend?
02:27You got two teams that got swept.
02:29Yeah, the Flyers, let's be fair.
02:31They weren't supposed to be that good this year.
02:33They're a very young team.
02:34And unlike in Detroit, made the playoffs one, ah, series.
02:42The Sixers is something completely different.
02:45Can I, let me say this.
02:46With New York taking over your arena.
02:48We say the only thing more embarrassing than the Sixers being swept was the fact that their fans no-showed
02:56in games three and four.
02:58Where are the proud Philadelphia fans?
03:00That was Madison Square Garden South.
03:03The only thing more embarrassing than that, you could take away all the Knicks' fourth quarter points from games three
03:11and four.
03:11They still win game three and four.
03:14They could have gone scoreless in each fourth quarter and still won the games.
03:19They could have pulled a Orlando.
03:21Correct.
03:22Wow.
03:22You just blew my mind.
03:23But can we say that hat trick?
03:26Wow.
03:27You know what?
03:27Why don't you just do this?
03:29No, I'm here to just add a shred of value.
03:31Oh, my goodness.
03:33But, yeah, horrible weekend.
03:34You hate to see it.
03:35Can we say that the Los Angeles Dodgers may not be as good as their record?
03:42They are 8-10 in the last 18 games.
03:45They started off hot.
03:46I think they're bored.
03:47Bored?
03:48Let's face it.
03:48I mean, they've won back-to-back.
03:50Nobody goes three in a row.
03:51They're bored.
03:52They're going to make the playoffs.
03:53They'll flip the switch.
03:54They're the most talented team in the league.
03:55They're fine.
03:56But you want to say, are they going to set some?
04:00Like, this is where I always laugh.
04:02It's people like, oh, my God, the Dodgers are going to win 120 games.
04:04No, they're not.
04:05Just stop.
04:06Best team in the league will still lose better part of 70 games.
04:08I'll give you that.
04:09Okay.
04:09Bored.
04:10I can see that.
04:11They started slow last year.
04:14Mookie didn't look that great, and people were worried.
04:16And then they won.
04:17Didn't Mookie have, like, a tapeworm in Japan or something?
04:20Yeah.
04:20And he weighed, like, 80 pounds.
04:21Weird.
04:22You're right.
04:23He had some weird, like, hantavirus worm or something, and he lost, like, 40 pounds.
04:27He looked like he was light enough he could have rode in the Belmont Stakes.
04:32He weighed, like, 140 pounds or whatever it was.
04:35And then he would have won, and then he would have had something else on his resume.
04:37There you go.
04:39Can we say that, look, with a brand-new offensive coordinator,
04:43and now that they've just gotten David Njoku,
04:46Justin Herbert may be up for the MVP this year.
04:49He's got all the pieces in place.
04:51I know you've been a big Chargers fan, Mike.
04:53I think the Chargers are this year's version of the Patriots.
04:57Like, last year when I was, like, all in on the Pats,
05:00I think Jim Harbaugh is going back to the Super Bowl.
05:02Yeah.
05:02They're putting the pieces around them.
05:04Now, that O-line's got to do their part.
05:05Let's be fair.
05:06They need Joe Ault upright.
05:08Right.
05:08Well, they're very unfortunate.
05:09They were like the Tigers where everybody went down.
05:11Yes.
05:12But, no, I'm all in on the Bolts,
05:13and I can separate what I think of Harbaugh as a human being
05:16and what he is as an NFL coach.
05:19He's an elite NFL coach.
05:21Yeah, I think they're winning that division.
05:23We just talked about this last week.
05:25I'm going to wait and see.
05:26Herbert's 0-3 in the playoffs.
05:28Get there, and then we'll go from there.
05:30On paper, they look good, though.
05:32Okay.
05:34Can we say that the Indiana Pacers got screwed in the lottery?
05:39Look, they made the trade.
05:42What do you want me to say?
05:43These protections, I'd get rid of all this crap in the NBA.
05:46You should never be allowed to trade these picks with protections.
05:50You either deal the pick or you do not deal the pick.
05:55My view.
05:55Now, they got Zubats, and he's a really good player for them.
05:59And, okay, so should they have gotten the number one pick?
06:05Well, yeah, that would have been the dream,
06:06and you get the bonds and the whole thing.
06:07But, Rico, I guess for me, I'm glad a team got screwed
06:10because I'm tired of all the protections.
06:12Because, as a fan, I can't even keep track of what has been dealt,
06:16what's real.
06:17Right, but they were just bad because they were bad.
06:19They lost Halliburton.
06:20Right, they weren't tanking.
06:22They were just bad.
06:23Because they lost Halliburton.
06:24It reminded me of the Pistons, and here's your reward.
06:27You get the fifth pick.
06:28Huh?
06:29But we were just bad.
06:30Well, that's also why I don't care.
06:32We got screwed out of Wemby.
06:34I don't want to hear it.
06:35We're lucky we got Cade.
06:37I thought the league was going to bone us out of that.
06:39We got screwed out of Boncaro.
06:40Boncaro!
06:41And can we say that the Tigers are just cursed?
06:45No.
06:46This year.
06:46No.
06:47I'm not?
06:48No.
06:49No, because they also, look, they've had some very good forgeries.
06:54It's part of organizational depth.
06:56Now, look, I can't overstate the amount of pitching problems.
07:00But some of the issues with the lineup is the lineup wasn't good,
07:03fully healthy.
07:04Now you're seeing, oh, boy, Carey gets hurt this weekend.
07:08You lose Torres.
07:10I'm not going to say.
07:11Merlin is now 60 days.
07:12I'm not going to say cursed.
07:13But, yeah, they're getting put through the ringer injury-wise.
07:16And right now, no.
07:17Can we say they're just not a good baseball team?
07:19They're not right now.
07:20Is there a substation downtown?
07:23I don't know.
07:23We can launch.
07:24Hey, pay a scientist $9 million like your team did.
07:27Magic 8-Ball says yes.
07:30I just, I'm not going to use a curse thing.
07:32I'm going to say they are cursed.
07:34Remember this?
07:37Okay, that's enough.
07:38It's all coming back to him.
07:40Oh, the other side of the coin.
07:42There's always a price to pay when you make a deal with the devil.
07:45Oh.
07:4597-1.
