00:05our number two let's get into it um with the new york knicks making the nba finals and
00:13having one of the great post seasons ever i i would caution you that's because the east is ass
00:19it's garbage but fine um i wanted to ask a question and it's about piston fan and how
00:29the season ended there are two ways to look at this so you've got choice a i'm glad it ended
00:39this
00:39way you know i'm on this side i'm glad you got blown out in game seven you didn't even deserve
00:43to get through round one um and now with cleveland the team that dropped a bomb on your head on
00:50your
00:50home floor having one of the most embarrassing eastern conference finals ever i think it it
00:56it shows you you you were nowhere close yeah and now now your organization has to be real
01:03they can't as jim costa so eloquently put it have an off season smelling their own farts
01:08they have to actually do something that side i'm on i'm thrilled it went this way it's painless
01:15because you know in your heart you were nowhere close the other side of it is damn
01:23the east was total garbage and we missed a real opportunity because we would have dot dot dot
01:30beat the knicks uh regular season try hard championship banner yeah we would have given
01:37the knicks a better series we could have beat the knicks in seven let's see here's the other problem
01:41would what do you hang a banner for we gave them a better series 2025 26 that i just want
01:48to know
01:49if it bothers you that cleveland got absolutely bombed and you know i admit this yes okay gentleman
01:56sweeper six game series the knicks are still beating you because the knicks now this is more proof your
02:03stupid little regular season doesn't matter yeah the knicks are playing defense that was not a feature
02:10of knicks 1.0 in the regular season now you're in the postseason no and they're playing a different
02:16level of basketball so i i just i'm fine with how it all played out because now all the pressures
02:23on
02:23trajan langdon and we'll get to some of the names later but where are you and where do you think
02:28this
02:28fan base is i think the fan base mike and maybe it's just a microcosm of the friends and calls
02:34i got
02:34i think the fan base believes they would have given the knicks a better series the fan base believes
02:41that either it would have gone at least six games or they could have beaten the knicks because you
02:48know the calves weren't that good and i had to remind them you do realize the last time the calves
02:53won
02:54was against you it couldn't beat the knicks but they destroyed you in a game seven what does the better
03:00series thing okay so you you're in an unhappy marriage now and i offer you a different one with
03:06the promise that it'll still end in divorce and you'll go yeah but it'll still be better yeah but at
03:11least
03:11what is the better series banner at least you'll have you know kids and they'll be amicable you won't
03:16hate each other oh good but it is well it would be a better series because they wouldn't have got
03:21swept they would cleveland got embarrassed their coach got embarrassed and said dumb things
03:26then james harden says dumb things fine you lose in five is that a better series i guess okay you
03:32don't
03:32lose by 40 is that no most pistons fans might believe it would have gone seven games and they had
03:40a
03:40chance of winning it all right just the people that i've talked and they believe in the easter buddy
03:43then because the way this knicks team is playing look the east is garbage but they're also playing
03:48really well you're not keeping up with that you just lost to the team that they bodied right and the
03:55way that they're playing whoo wow i i haven't seen organized basketball like this in a long time like
04:02they haven't lost this month no it's it's the i think it's the 90 99 spurs and the uh 17
04:09warriors
04:10only two to win 11 straight playoff games and clearly this team is not those teams it also
04:18filters back to how awful but east is but still they're the best of a bad east okay but hear
04:26me
04:27out they get to do the same thing that they did for the pistons cav winner they get eight days
04:33yes rest
04:34to put their feet up on the couch take a mini vacation whatever you need to do because there was
04:40a
04:40whole rust versus rest well rest won out in this series it did and in their world they're praying
04:47to god that this series go in the west goes seven games beat each other up go right ahead and
04:53let's
04:53see what happens but look okay if if your mental state is i would i i would have rather have
05:00played
05:00it would have been a better series you can feel however you want to feel my opinion is tied to
05:05the
05:05fact that your season ended where you got hit with a toilet and the cav showed their ass i think
05:13that forces your front office into defcon one which is it's go time no more margins no more sleepy time
05:21no more like that's why i'm i'm good with it because if you do have a good summer i do
05:27think you could
05:28be finals good but you need major changes but i do think there's pistons fans that are angry two four
05:34eight five three nine nine seven nine seven doesn't make you angry when you see the embarrassment what
05:40the calves were and you think we could have done a better job than cleveland but if okay and if
05:46i'm
05:46being mean you can ring the bell and i just won't say this again okay if you're gonna do the
05:51pretend
05:52thing of well we would have given them a better thing cool then i'll do this you should have lost
05:58in the first round if wagner doesn't die we can play this game all day i can't ring the bell
06:05because you know it's the same principle just applied in a different way david it's the first
06:10one of the day he's right you know uh-oh let's hear it let's hear it two four eight five
06:17three nine
06:18ninety seven ninety seven david go ahead you're the big fan you got cade here yeah but i'm not
06:24like the other church is pulis now correct i'm not like these other pistons fans though in no way
06:30shape or form did i see the end of that series last night and say boy just just the pistons
06:36it would
06:36have been a better series no i think they the pistons would have lost the series so i'll have a
06:40better series if it still ends in a loss then you're still on the same level as the calves i'm
06:45sorry
06:45that's how it is for me but it's competitive because these games aren't competitive doesn't
06:49matter you lose a series you lose a series it is what it is whether you're losing in four
06:53or seven you still lost the series so for all these fans are out there saying oh man i'm
06:59disciplined we should have done our job and we would have beat the no you can't apply the prince
07:04let me let me apply the principle to my team and you go okay well you can't be happy with
07:09the way
07:10the c the celtic season ended sure i am in fact i love it because it's going to be the
07:15death of missoula ball it's going to be the death of having jalen brown and tatum shoehorned into this
07:20arranged marriage and the celtics are going to have to make seismic changes and ultimately in my
07:26world i don't care about a bunch of fake regular season wins the celtics are a different version
07:30of you they're a bunch of try-hard boners they weren't championship good this was supposed to be
07:35a gap year tax year cool so you want a bunch of stupid games it doesn't matter i only care
07:40about
07:41the banner and by the way if the celtics somehow had gotten through they probably got their asses
07:46kicked so it's the same principle obviously the pistons and celtics are in two different places
07:53it is mike but when you're the number one seed in the east fake okay you had home court advantage
07:59throughout the east and you and to some you let the game seven slip away i know you got blown
08:06out but
08:06i was gonna say slipped away the boat capsized you got it to game seven and then you see
08:12wow cleveland just fell on their face that should have been us we should have been there we at least
08:19the games have been competitive instead of you know brunson and sweats already showered in the
08:26the guy who lost his girl going oh god i'd love her better like i mean what a bunch of
08:31losers
08:37and the chair is piping another dude it's over seriously listen to yourself rico
08:44no no no i'm not me oh she'd be happier with me well she ain't she left
08:55sound like a bunch of bitches it's ridiculous these are the calls you're getting huh yeah okay
09:01you don't do what to do we should start putting up fake banners the lions used to do it playoff
09:08appearance banners like god put up a fake banner the we would have given them a better series banner
09:14put it right next to kelly trapuca no no they will they will have the uh eastern number one seed
09:19in
09:19the eastern conference band put that up there too hell put mason's glasses and flat brim in the rafters
09:26like one of those oversized hats put that up there the only team to win 60 in the east
09:30i just to me i'm all about the bigger picture and i like when organizations are are forced into the
09:38fire they don't get to waste our time anymore so that's my joy is like now it's on now the
09:47organization
09:47has to deliver these fans a legitimate product not this gym class crap that's me though versus
09:55whatever rico's friends are selling the whole she'd be happier with me uh well one of our friends he
10:03didn't call me but a mutual friend of ours morning show mr costa he believes yeah but but but well
10:10here's what i believe i believe gov put him in a body bag this morning when he told him you're
10:16living in
10:16a fantasy land it was hilarious and gov was right from tecumseh what what tangible value is there you
10:27gave the knicks a good series last year and you swept them this year in the regular season put the
10:33banner up play the song my point is the bigger picture the bigger value is that your season did end
10:41in disaster because now trajan got punched right in the head and he has to go to this offseason and
10:49land a marketing a trey murphy a something to move this thing forward to where then then we can really
10:58go to war i don't know man i mean who was it whoever the sports host of new york when
11:05he came out was
11:06like yeah you're not beating us oh evan yeah we were like he said it in december and he goes
11:10well
11:10the pistons are a cute little team and i'm like all right hold on first of all you're a nets
11:14fan
11:14so whatever you know about hoops we fit in a thimble second of all what did the pistons go out
11:21to do
11:22kick the hell out of the knicks every time they played this year but the playoffs are a different
11:28thing and look i i was willing to make a bet if they played yeah of course i would have
11:34i would
11:34have wanted the pistons to go with him because i hate the knicks but ultimately they didn't play
11:38pistons didn't do their job pistons are lucky they even got out of the first round how could you be
11:44hope casting take this as a win they got their faces rubbed in it and the team that bombed you
11:51as fake as you think they are they got murdered worse than you they did now your organization can
11:58deliver for you or do what rico's friends are doing i don't know that's a lot of people man they
12:05feel like the quote we could have given them a better series because you're right david you're
12:11right rico's on the phone with his friends oh i would have given her a better life well i'm not
12:18getting dragged into she's on a yacht with a doctor i want to know who was it was it caveman
12:23was it chuck wasn't caveman was it dw who who is it i know all your people even though i'm
12:30not a
12:30founder only one of them is a founder that you named off okay interesting yeah david we'll get
12:39with the people 248-539-9797 we do have some new names emerging uh for pistons intrigue we can go
12:47down
12:47that road too
