1:00Let the pros handle the lawn. Just don't be surprised when golfers show up. I can't tell you how many times I spill something on my shirt right before walking out the door. And it's always while I'm wearing a white shirt too. And somehow that's the exact moment I realize I'm out of staying removed. And I don't have another clean shirt to change into.

All right, guys, two words for you, prostate exam. Yeah, you just clenched up a little bit. Are you imagining the finger right now? Yeah. Relax. Prostate cancer screening starts with a simple finger free blood test. Around one and eight men in the United States will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime.

2:00But that's no reason to re-clench. When caught early at localized or even regional stages, prostate cancer can have over a 99% five-year relative survival rate. Did your tight end just relax? Good. If you're over 40, 40 or older, and have a prostate, relax. It's a blood test.com. You'll find out if a PSA blood test is right for you. The PSA blood test can be the first step in screening. Talk to your doctor to evaluate your risk, determine when to get tested, and discuss screening options and the next steps. Sponsored by Novartis. You are listening to the Dan Patrick's show on Fox Sports Radio. Somebody owes our audience on TV and apology. We, of course, are simulcast. That's what it's called. A simulcast. So we're on radio and TV. Our radio affiliates. 400 cities around America that carry the radio portion. And, of course, we have peacock and NBC sports network.

3:03Now, I have cameras all over the building. And I'm back talking to Mario and Anthony. And Mario is the person who's the eyes and ears of the program. He is the director. Anthony does graphics. And we're back. We're chatting it up. We're talking. We're having fun. And then, Mario, who controls all of the equipment there, goes, uh, you guys are on camera right now. We have a camera in the control room. Marvin gives the finger to the camera. Why? DP, I don't know. And I sincerely apologize. I felt awful. I felt legit terrible. Just a lot of things. You heard Mario say you're on camera, correct? I literally heard him say. It was almost like the fritzy moment where he didn't give you the pie. Like we're about to go to break. Okay. And I'm, I'm really sorry. Most things I'm not sorry about. This I am sorry about. Yeah, because I go, we're on camera.

4:03And you're flipping off the people. You just flipped off America. I did me to it was really for Mario. Now, your hands being small, not everybody saw it. So I think, but your arms were really long when you were holding out your hand. They're basically at the camera. That's how long my arms were. Yes, Todd. I think you can playfully give someone the finger, whether it's America or just a person, just when you know you kid around with your buddies and you say certain curse words, you don't mean it. I think he gets a pass for that. Is he kibbitzing? He's kibbitzing. He's just having a little fun. I don't think there was anything malicious about it. It might have been a little unprofessional. He's apologizing. Yeah, but people don't know that on the receiving end. But now they do. Or what if they're children watching, Todd? It's all about the kids. Some children don't even know what the finger is. It's so to do. Yeah. Now they're going to ask. That's definitely going to ask. Yes. Yes, Morgan. Right. I'm not apologizing to the adults. I'm apologizing to the children. Because I believe the children are the future. Okay. Teach them well and let them leave the way. And what did you just teach them, Marvin?

5:04By leading the way, what exactly did you teach them there? I feel terrible about leading America's youth threat. I'm rarely shocked. Now it's live and I've got 13 cameras in here. But I'm standing next to you. And all of a sudden, you flip off the camera and I go, we're on TV. Double bird salute at that. And I'm really sorry. And you're the last person that I would think would do that. But DP, just to let you know, I'm not better than that. I want to let you know. Stat of the day brought to you by Panini America, the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick show. You could have had the voters for the sports Emmy watching. And maybe they felt like you were flipping them off. That might be... Now it makes sense, Marvin. Good job. Now. Now. Now I've proved Marvin. Good job. Now we're never going to win a sports Emmy. Yes, Todd. The fact that we should have won at least once by now. I've got no problem.

6:04No problem. Now I'm totally behind what Marvin did. Does everybody collectively want to flip off the sports Emmy voters here? Is that what you want to do? I don't think we have to overdo it. But on this one occasion that Marvin did that, if that's what it was meant for, then good for him. Final hour on this Tuesday. Good morning. If you're watching on peacock and NBC Sports Network, Reggie Miller will stop by in a little bit. Scotty Sheffler, Rory McAroy and the PGA tour, taking on Bay Hill, the Arnold Palmer Invitational, presented by MasterCard Saturday and Sunday on NBC and peacock. 8773DP show, we will get more phone calls in here. And a poll question for the final hour of this award, nominated program. Who would you rather watch a game with football with Ross Tucker's currently beating basketball with Reggie Miller and soccer with Roger Bennett? Then we have two different versions of this poll question. Who would you follow to safety in a fire, Dan the front row and the back row? Right now, Dan, you're leading their front row then back row.

7:04But then when you put in, who would you follow to safety in a fire, Dan front row, back row, BRGs. BRGs currently winning that one with 48% of that vote. You're close, Dan, with 37. Front row is doing, okay, back row is almost nonexistent. Okay. Yes, Tom. Why would it be a good choice to fall someone that started the fire? I'm trying to understand the logic behind that. I did start the fire. I did. Yet you're like leading the polls or you're close to the top for like the person that we should go run and follow to safety. Unlike Billy Joel, who wouldn't take credit for starting a fire, you know, I started the fire. I started the fire yesterday. But once again, my thanks, my sincere thanks to Eric Jones, the big German, who put out the fire. The raging fire. The inferno. Yes. Let's see.

8:04Danny and Ohio. Hi, Danny. What's on your mind? Hey, Dan was just giving me a call. One is to see. You always ask the guests that if they had one thing to take from the fire, what would they take? I was wondering what you and the Danettes might take, since you did almost put them in place down yesterday. Yep. Came very close. I think I don't know if it changes when we ask this question, because I'm always adding things. But you don't have much time to be able to take something with you. Yes, Paul. For example, the Tony Stewart quarter panel would be great to take because it's such a novelty item and I like Tony. I don't think I have time in a fire situation together. Yeah, that's off his car, I think, from Daytona. Marvin, what would you take if you had to get out of the building? And you got 60 seconds. I'm going to grab a ladder. ASAP, try to grab that Kobe Bryant autograph jersey. Oh, okay. Now, that's Paulie's. Yeah.

9:04What about you, Seaton? You got something? Todd, you got something you would take? I've always looked at that old Yankee City in light that you have in the corner there by your office. That seems like something that I wouldn't have to fight everybody for. I just think that's kind of original. And the NBA pinball machine again would be tough to get out of there in a hurry. Seaton. I think I could do this in 60 seconds, but I'm grabbing that guarmask and land in Donovan's jersey. Those are the two things that I want. Yeah. And I'm going to map that out, grab those on my way out the door. When people see the guarmask, they're like, what's that? And we had the lead singer of guar. And he came in and I said, I'd love to have the mask for the man cave and he gave me his mask. It's a big deal. He doesn't give those away. Yeah. But that one, odorous, the late great odorous, and boy, did he live up to his name? Is he hadn't watched his costume in a long time? Yeah. He truly was odorous. Life on the road. Yeah. But, you know, he was fun guest. Great guy. Big football fan. Alrighty. Oh, so yeah, Danny, there you go.

10:05That's probably, I'm probably taking the Ryan Leaf jersey. If the colds had taken him, that was the jersey they were presenting him with. And then Ryan signed it. So, that one usually gets people to say, wait a minute, Ryan Leaf. He didn't go to the colds. I said, well, he was going to, and that was the jersey. So, thank you for the phone call. Will and Florida. Good morning. Will, what's on your mind? Hey, you've just calling in. It's had a tough couple days. My mom passed away a couple days ago and just feeling down. I hadn't laughed for nothing. But last hour when somebody on your team flirted out, go get them boys. That just made me laugh out loud. And realize everything told me okay. So, I appreciate you guys. Thank you, Will. Thank you. Good luck. You know, next few days, next few weeks, and then those little things that you're going to see and you're going to, damn, mom, it still happens to me. Now, there's still moments where you just see a picture. Somebody says something. How they say it. And I think of my mom or my dad.

11:07Kevin in Texas. Hi, Kevin. What's on your mind today? Hey, Danny. I was going to lighten the mood up a little bit. Sorry to hear about that, guys, mom. So, there's three places to watch a game. A top notch. But you got to go a little deeper. There's just kind of Paulie's section. You got to think about locations. Audrey Bennett's going to be in a small flat in London. Ross is going to fill you up with protein and steak. And there's a little office in Eastern PA. But I want to be on the beach in Malibu with a story with Regi Allolicious. Yeah. I'd like to add two more. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Now, if we subbed out, this is very Paulie style. We subbed out Roger Bennett for another NBC broadcaster in the soccer realm. So, back of that, it would be a much better fit. And then, what about, as a fifth seed, you get to go to the game and sit with the hooligans? I don't want to sit with the hooligans.

12:08I'll watch the hooligans. I'd rather sit with Rebecca Lowe. Dan and Naples. By the way, didn't Regi his place in Malibu? He was next to Pam Anderson. She lived, I think, next door. I believe so. Dan and Naples. Hey, Dan. Hey, I want to congratulate Marv on Armageddon. And a quick question. I was wondering if you saved me a couple of bucks on a plumber. My fiancee dropped her ring down the kitchen sink. I'll hang up and listen. Oh, Dan with a shot. This has just not been a great 10 minutes for me. Yeah. Well, you flipped people off. And now they turn on you. I really feel bad. Children of America, I'm sorry. Yeah. I don't think you are. I don't think you are. Oh, no, no, no. I'm not apologizing for the sake of it. Really? Yeah. You seem pretty confident, comfortable flipping people off. Like you've done it many, many times. I did like Stone Cold Steve Austin style.

13:10Sorry, guys. Yes, Todd. Does Marv want to share anything about Santa or the Easter Bunny while we're going on? No, we're not doing that, Todd. Todd. Does this have anything to share? No. I mean, anything. No. There's too much time on someone else. And Todd had to bring it right back there. Let me know. That's not Marv. What about me, guys? I'll show you how to work into this. I'll show you how to ruin something. How do I? I'll tell you about the time I went to Jersey, Mike's. Got us up. This is not the Todd Fritz show featuring Dan Patrick. It's been like that. You have the Todd cast. And I thought that that might force you to say all on the save some of that for the Todd cast. You're a thing. Or I don't need to talk as much on the show. Apparently that is not working. But then there's other days where you're like, oh, I didn't know you were here today. So I can try to figure out my spot here. How long have we been doing this? A long time. I mean, no, I'm right. There's no, we know there's a no in situation for me here. Like, oh, it's 1038. You haven't said a word or way too much Todd. So we got to figure out some kind of formula here. Why don't you figure out a formula? I don't think I have.

14:10What is your formula? No, there is no formula. In much too little. No, it's, you're just. No, I'm not getting into this. I'm not going to get it. I'm not doing it. Anyway, what about me? I've obviously upset some of the other Danettes that I'm like trying to take over the show with something. So let's address it. No, just see. Yeah, just me. Paul, you know, he hasn't liked you for 18 years. Yeah, it's just me. Yeah. No, I like Todd. We get along. We talk every morning. But I would say Todd, he's either at zero or 100 miles an hour on the show. And it'd be nice. It'd be more balanced of little bits, little bit. Maybe, maybe a school zone speed limit. Yeah. Maybe 55. 35, 45. If you get in the fast lane, if you want to go 10 miles an hour faster, without letting anybody pass you, Manny in Dayton. Good morning, Manny. What's on your mind? Hey, Mr. Patrick. A third time caller, long time listener. Five, nine.

15:10Dropping, 195. Two things. First, Paul, you know, I owe you a pie to the face bed for the private baby bears winning the division. I will do that as soon as the weather breaks. And second, when Marwin was showing the birdie, Mr. Patrick, you were right next to him. You didn't even put his hands down. You give him a hug from the side. I didn't know he was flipping off the camera, Manny. And his name is Marvin. Marvin. Yeah. Thank you, Manny. I stood next to Marvin, put my arm around him. I didn't know he was going to flip off the camera. Why would I expect that? He was raised by a wonderful woman. I did. Yeah. How do you think your mom would feel if she watched that? Oh, I'd get a phone call.

16:11Well, you might get a phone call. Marvin's around. Let me tell you something. That's not good. When you get your middle name. Uh-oh. Yep. No bueno. Again, it's Marvin Gaye and his... Tammy Tarell. Tammy Tarell. Yep. And they recorded together. Correct. Marvin Gaye was killed. April 1st. I was born April 13th. And you're named after Marvin. Correct. I think it was going to be like Kareem Abdul Prince. No, it was not. That would be great. Yeah. There was a running back at UCLA named Kareem Abdul Jabbar. And I think he spelled it differently. Yeah. And he played for the dolphins too. Yeah. That's right. Blue, blue, blue. All right. You're making a comeback here. All right. We'll take a break. Red G yellow wishes.

19:14mistaken the true green lawns for an actual golf course. Have you noticed that? Come on. No, no, I'm serious. Happens all the time. And, you know, they're the official lawn care treatment provider, the PJ tour. So they know what it takes to get golf course quality lawns. So you're saying we could host a tournament up back? No, I mean, we could make, well, yeah, I guess we can. If true greenstone all the work, no one makes it easier. They handle the treatments, the timing, everything. I feel like you see them everywhere. Yeah. Beautiful lawns. And you know, it's true green. America's number one lawn care company and chances are they're already in your neighborhood. I play, but I'm not mowing. I didn't think you were. Your wife will or your son get your own golf course quality lawn at true green.com true green.com let the pros handle the lawn. Just don't be surprised when golfers show up. Nobody really prepared you for this part of life. When I had some guests, they wouldn't me recently. I realized I was missing a few key essentials. I hate when that happens.

20:16Really, no more paper towels down to the last pigs in the blanket so soon. I didn't want to interrupt our time together by running to the store or give off the impression that I was unprepared for my guests. Moments like that are a perfect example of how everyday life can surprise you. Some days go as planned and other days, well, life, those curveballs. It's not always convenient. That's why I went straight to Amazon. Amazon helps to make it easier to manage both the routine and unexpected from household basics to last minute replacements. You like to have one hand to be a great host. Amazon makes it so you can find everything that you need all in one place with reliable value and great prices. So when you run out of essentials right when the party's about to start, Amazon makes it easier to focus on your guests. Talk about saving the day. Reggie Miller. He was on the call with Mike Tureko, the Celtic 76ers last night and Reggie joins us on the program. You got any official return date for Jason Tatum after being around the Celtics? Okay. Let me clean up some things first because people assumed that we were flexing

21:23into that Sunday night game with Boston because we had gotten early information that Tatum was going to be back for that game, which wasn't the case. We were flexing in because it was a better game between two Red Hot Easter Conference teams. The other game was, I believe, Dallas versus Atlanta, even though Atlanta's playing a little bit better. Dallas is kind of going the other way. So that's why we flexed into the game. It wasn't that we had inside knowledge that Tatum will be back to answer your question. And you and I have kind of talked about this when he should be back. I'm hearing as early as Friday that he's thinking about coming back. I believe they do play Dallas at home. I'm from the thinking. I would like to see him come back in the playoffs when people are like, well, he needs games under his belt. This will be a decision that he has to make. I think it's a foregone conclusion that he is coming back this year. I'm a little surprised,

22:25but I think he's been doing this working so hard for his mental. And I think he's ahead of the schedule. I don't know if you've watched any of that five-part documentary of the quiet part of them following him around. The best thing, if there was knock on a wood, the best thing when he tore his Achilles in game five, I believe, in New York, that the doctor was right there, that they attached it right away. And the thinking was the body didn't even know that it had that traumatic experience. That's how quickly within 24 hours they had the surgery on the Achilles. So that's why he is so far ahead of schedule versus the Damien Lillard or Tyree's Halleburton is because they had the surgery within 24 hours. But I don't know why you're pushing the Celtics of one eight of ten. They're really getting a lot of contributions from a lot of different players. And I don't know if you know, maybe you're not rushing him back, but it feels like.

23:27Let's clear this up. The Celtics are not rushing Jason Tatum. No one is saying her, come back and play. This is all coming from Tatum's camp. So the Celtics are being very patient. Wait, when Tatum can say when he wants to come back? Yeah. At the end of the day, this is going to be Jason Tatum's decision, along with the doctors, they'll get me wrong. I mean, they're going to put them through vigorous workouts and all that. But at the end of the day, Tatum will have the last say saying, I think or I want to go. Okay. It won't be the doctor saying that. So no one from the Celtic side is trying to curry up the process and get Tatum back on the floor. This is all, the narrative is all coming from the Tatum side as it should be because it's his decision and his decision alone. Let's go back a couple of weeks. You're there with Caitlin Clark. And you say to the other guys on the NBC set that her play reminds you of Peyton Pritchard.

24:31Okay. You see Peyton Pritchard last night. Does he say anything about that comparison to Caitlin Clark? Well, we had the conversation because when I said that, it was a Sunday night game. It was our first Sunday night game. It was in New York. It just so happened. We had a game Tuesday in Dallas with Boston and obviously everything blew up after that because they're saying her look like she felt disrespected. This is people saying she felt disrespected. And the question from Maria to me was, who does her game remind you of? It wasn't the question of historically or stature wise, who is she compared to? Because if that was the case, obviously the W and the WNBA, she has brought so much attention and eyes like a step in curry. So if that was the question, then I probably should have said Steph in curry, but I was going by game alone. Like who does her game

25:34remind me of? And when I look at Peyton Pritchard and if you've watched Peyton Pritchard, which you've seen a lot because you live in that area, they're very similar. Now he's probably a better score once he gets into the pain. But I was talking about it in terms. She loves to go left in that step back three deep three. That's Peyton Pritchard. Throw ahead. Get the ball back. Big quick moves assist. To me, that was Peyton Pritchard. I think people got caught up because it wasn't a huge name. You know, people say you could have said, Damien Lillard, you could have said Tray Young, you could have said Steph in curry. I was comparing the games guys, not the stature of Caitlin Clark. Did you see her reaction though? She was surprised with your reaction with what you said. I didn't see her reaction. So everyone was like, did you see her reaction? I was like, I was talking about the game. So, but if you see if I let you do it again. If you've seen this game recently, everyone like the game against LA, everyone was like, oh, I guess Reggie was right.

26:36Reggie closer to that than she is to Steph in curry. Steph in curry is more off the ball now. Caitlin Clark has the ball like Peyton Pritchard has the ball all the time. It's just that Peyton Pritchard to the common fan isn't well known like Steph in curry. But to the basketball people, people know Peyton, people really love Peyton Pritchard, but it is what it is. If you had to do it over again and I ask you, who does Caitlin Clark's game remind you? I'm going to say Peyton Pritchard, Steph in curry, I'm going to say, I said Thomas Magic Johnson, I didn't come down, I asked G.A. She's all of them. All right. Who would have known that you would have thought you'd get embroiled in something like this? But I was like, really? I was frustrated because I'm comparing her games. So that let me know, people don't know Peyton Pritchard.

27:40Yes, exactly. And you know what? I am always exchanging these Somer League videos with Marvin. It'll be a Sunday morning at 7.30 and I'll send him a video of Peyton Pritchard playing in a some kind of Somer League game, a pro-AM game. And he is unbelievable. Unborking, scorching. Yes, scorching. But again, he is not a help. When you think of the Celtics, you think of Caitlyn and Brown, and you really don't think they're Pritchard. But the Bath of Alpirus, we know who Peyton Pritchard is. But again, it wasn't the name. I guess she wasn't looking for or the people wasn't looking for. They were looking for Steph. They were looking for Steph. But that's not her game. That's not her game. The only thing that she hasn't come in with Steph is that they both shoot deep. Steph plays off the ball now. Yeah. We're talking to Reggie Miller, Reg on the call for the Celtics and Peyton Pritchard

28:42against the 76ers. There's the Magic City game in Atlanta. And I was curious. Are you going? No, I'll be working. Okay. Have you been to Magic City? The wing establishment in Atlanta? I'm sure at some point I have. Have you ever been to Magic City? I have not, but I did when we went down to do Celebrity Family Feud. I gave Marvin. You did a show from Magic City? No, no, no, no. I did Celebrity Family Feud. And we were down there and it was, we went to dinner and then Marvin says, hey, I'd like to go to Magic City. And I said, I'm not going. I gave him $100. And he said he was going to make it rain. And he went there for how you made it drizzle. How long did you go for? So I thought I was going to go there for, you know what, 45 made its tops three and a half hours later. Whoa, Marvin. He said, who was there? A little

29:48bowel, low bowel and a tea pain and a germane debris. Okay. It's safe to say to answer your question. I've never made it rain in Magic City. So I can say that. You made it sparkle. You have one up me. You have one up me. I've never made it rain in Magic City. Have you made it sprinkle? I've never made it rain, sprinkle, a drizzle, a little cloud cover, going to that. You, that wasn't back in your generation though. I think it was back. How long has it been around? No, I mean, making it rain. Oh, I know. That's a new thing, making it rain. Yeah. Like James Harden is MVP at making it rain. There's probably as a jersey in there. Yeah, when you, when they retire, you're jersey in a strip club. That's wrong. That's right. There's so many ways we can go with it. Making it rain. Good for him. Okay. I took credit. Now I have to take some blame. I

30:57would pester the commissioner of the NBA. Why don't we establish a number of games you need to play to qualify for first team, second team, third team for MVP. And I kept saying 65. Now, whether he listened to me or not, we're at a point where Joker can't miss more than one more game. SGA, you might have somebody win the MVP who is not really the MVP in people's eyes, but only because they qualify. Would you, what would you do with the 65 game minimum to qualify for postseason honors? No, no, I get rid of it. That's a hard number in today's game. And I know it sounds so trivial for people to say they can't play 65 games. The amount of running and how the game is played today, I see where the injuries are coming from. I think 65. That's a, it's a tough

31:58number. And in terms of someone winning MVP, I would be okay if a kid cutting him on MVP this year because of the numbers games. His numbers back it up. His team's back it up. I would be okay or Jalen Brown won MVP this season. His numbers back it up. His game backs it up. So it's unfortunate injuries are a part of this game. But I was going back. Didn't A Rob win in baseball. He won an MVP, I believe, with the Texas Rangers. And they were like in last place or something like that, right? Or second to last something like that. Andre Dawson won an MVP with the Cubs. They finished last. I think Cal Ripkin might have won an MVP. So I mean, it's unfortunate. I talked about injuries being a part of it. I don't personally like this 65. You look at the all NBA teams this year. That's a different conversation because

33:00we we can have people that are making the all NBA teams that probably normally wouldn't be first second or third team because of this 65 game rule. The awards I can kind of see, but they're going to be some guys on the all NBA team where you're going to be scratching your head a little bit. Jeff Cheeg has the club 520 podcast. And he was asked the following question. Watch out for your highlights. And y'all thinking how good y'all could just how good you think Larry Burr would be right now. Larry Burr, he'd be a small four version. You think he'd be like one of the best like, Larry Burr would do this night and night now. Sometimes I used to watch like older people play. I used to be like, man, he ain't athletic. He ain't this. But then when I watch y'all, it's just like, he's walking around. Yeah. He just make it look so stuff. I'm like Larry Burr play right now. Like Luca and y'all could just be walking around. Larry Burr could play at any era generation and dominate. Same with magic.

34:12Those guys, Michael, it just doesn't matter. You could plug them in the 60s and you could plug them in today's game and they would be just as dominant. People say, Shaq wouldn't be as dominant in today's game where there's so much space and they're switching. Everyone plays five out zero in and they're like, Shaq would not be as dominant. You guys are out of your damn mind. Shaq would dominate probably even more so because he would be fouling out all these, he would be fouling out in bead in the jokers. It would be ridiculous. Larry Burr would dominate in today's games and he gets the shoot 15 to 23s. Are you kidding me? Why is it, and Seaton brought this up earlier, if Larry was that greatest shooter, why did he, he never averaged more than three three pointers again. The game was played different because the game was played with your back to the basket. It was more physical and there was no zones.

35:17When did it change? I would say early 2000s is when the game started to drift, the more space, pace, open it up, more running. I would say, right now $1 is retiring. 2004 to 2005. That's when, because we want it scoring up and how do you get more scoring? You've got to make more threes. So teams started to take and make more threes. So early 2000 is when it shifted. But is this golden state changing the game, or is it before golden state? Well, if you remember, run TMC with Don Nelson and, you know, Chris Mullen, Mitch Rischman, Tim Hardaway, they were ahead of their time. But I don't think they were shooting threes with regularity. I think that they were running. They were like they are today, but think about it started with Marjacks and then Steve Kerr just took it to a different level

36:18in terms of head coach. You had two of the greatest shooters ever on one team and Stefan and Clay Thompson. So why not utilize that? Yeah, but I was trying to think, was there another player team coach who said, you're going to have to play our style at the other end of the floor? I think we, as a reason, that's how the subjects, that's how the subjects won their championship. And they've been in contention over the last five, six years. Joe Mizzoula and them, they want to take 43s. And I think last year, they average 18 this year, they're averaging 15 made three. So if that's, you know, without Tatum, without Tatum, he makes up those three or four three. So that's how Boston plays. That's how they're successful. But people don't get it twisted. Another reason why Golden State was so good at winning championships, their defense was elite. Boston, their defense is elite as well. I think we've talked about this. I had Robert Ori, Ori,

37:22O on and red. She's a whole of famer. And I'm going to say this because it's just like Dremon green. You're part of an ensemble. Robert Ori, when your nickname is Big Shot Bob, you played for the Lakers, you played for the Rockets, you played for the Spurs, you have seven NBA titles, and you played big in big minutes. This is no different than Michael Cooper with his contributions to the Lakers and being part of an ensemble. So now I'm on this kick to get Robert Ori into the whole of fame. And I know he was a good college player. He said he probably didn't have any play designed for him in his career. But he was playing with unbelievably talented players who kind of overshadowed anything that he did. It was Tim Duncan Spurs. You know, it was a Keem's Rockets. It was Jack and Kobe's Lakers. But Robert Ori has seven titles and it is part of, you know,

38:24winning those titles. Not only seven titles, but if you go back to each one of those runs for him, there was a moment in each of those series in the finals where the nickname became true. And I'm with you on that. People love to focus in on the numbers. I believe it doesn't even have over 11,000 career points. That's not the point you and I are talking about. Is what difference did you make on those championship runs? And whether it's the tip back to him at the three versus Sacramento, the huge shots that he made on those back-to-back title runs in Houston or with the Spurs. The little hip-check too was Steve Nash to it. There's moments that we know about Robert Ori and I agree with you. And Shack and I, we've had this conversation before

39:27that Big Shot Bob should be a Hall of Famer. Eventually, I think he'll get in. Everyone does. But yeah, I think he should be a Hall of Famer as well. Yeah, man. And plus, he was a guy who would give you a hundred blocks. Yes. And people forgot how good defensively he was. Yeah. We, I ask him, I said, better defender, uh, Mike or Scotty goes, oh, Scotty. I can't hate it even. Has it? Yeah, I would say, yeah, Scotty was guarding one through five. Um, and as good as Mike was, and I say that because Mike had a guard being, I mean, I had some of my best games against Jordan. So, but when they put Scotty on me, it was, it was a little different. Well, I always go back to when Scotty picked up Mark Jackson full car. And I felt bad for Mark, because Mark's not going to, and we didn't know that it was coming because that's what he did to John Stockton completely took him out. Okay. When he picked him up for, and we, we shouldn't know

40:34what we did. Thank you. Regis always would talk to you next week. Marvin making it sprinkle. Regi, Ella, wishes Miller, Junior, the third. All right. We'll take a break.

51:56It was from the blue square alliance against hate and it wasn't loud or flashy It showed a Jewish kid being targeted at school and another student who chose not to ignore it As someone who is Jewish that moment felt very real to me not dramatic just familiar And what struck me was how clearly it showed that hate doesn't always announce itself But the impact is still huge if you saw the blue square spot during the big game It's worth thinking about and if you want to show support sharing the blue square is one small way to do that This is an iHeart podcast
