It's not a cliche when we say don't trust young teams in the playoffs. They would have been better off being on the road. They could feel it. They got tight, their coach got tight, everybody got set home. Wow, all right, let's start with this. Okay, the Celtics lost at home. Bizarrely, they're not even that good at home. They're actually a better road team, Nick fans, I've never seen a game one upset. That means less. This is the only game the Knicks are gonna win. Boston's not gonna miss forty five threes. I know. Enjoy the moment, Nick fans, you are feeling it today. Oh give me a break. Boston got a twenty point lead. They hammered this team all year, they fell asleep, and then they just took bad shots. Jason Tatum, he froze. He does that from time to time. He does it much more than any of his fan boys want to admit. It was the classic Jason Tatum game late where you're like, is he on the floor? Is he playing? Where's Jason Tatum? But the Knicks wings og pl well McHale bridges, they were running off shooters, defended well. They deserve credit. But the Celtics had the third fewest layups in the league and the fewest free throws. What does it mean shots? They don't. They just live and die with a three. And like those great Warrior teams when Stephan Clay weren't hitting them, they had bad nights. They got blown out multiple times in the finals. So I mean Boston, they don't get labs, they don't shoot mid range, they don't get to the free throw line. They're shooting sixty threes. And last night, I mean in the second half in overtime or second half yeah, and overtime, Yeah, they shot forty nine shots. Thirty seven were threes. And I will defend Jason Tatum later on in this show because I think he's a little bit trapped with this team. But the reality is, you see this from Boston, and strangely, it's often at home. They're a great road team, they're a better road team than the home team. But they have these nights and you know, Jason Tatum, no, but he wants to admit it, but he has these collaborative nights where he's just settling for bad shots. And again I think he could draw more fouls. But this is what Boston is. They're going to be fine. The Knicks have absolute offensive limitations. It's gonna be okay. Boston's not gonna shoot like this. I mean, the first quarter was classic Knicks. They were out playing Boston. Boston was rusty, and the Knicks kept missing free throws. They couldn't get the free throws, right, I was on moneyline Knicks first quarter two J Mack. They couldn't hit free throws. So the Knicks have an absolute ceiling. But Boston they give you one of these every so often. And I've said before they remind me a lot of the Warriors team. But back when the Warriors were shooting all the threes, the rest of the league was not. But Boston leads the league in threes. They don't get to the free throw line, they don't create layups or mid range shots. So when they have one of these awful shooting halves, I mean they led by twenty. They dominate this team. And we've said this all the time. In the NFL. You'll see a team lead twenty eight to seven at half and the game ends like thirty one twenty seven, and you're like, we were so close that it's not really It's hard to ask athletes who dominate an opponent over and over and over to always bring their a game in Boston had a bad second half, settled for too many bad shots. And here's Jalen Brown after the loss.

And here's Jalen Brown after the loss.

I feel like we just settled in the second half a lot. Some of them felt good, some of them felt like we may be forced to issue in Definitely, our rhythm and our timing was a little bit off. We got a lot of great looks. Those moments when the other team got momentum. We can't and just fire up threes, you know, to break up momentum, gotta get to the free throw line, gets it a pay and gets hit a basket.

We can't and just fire up threes, you know, to break up momentum, gotta get to the free throw line, gets it a pay and gets hit a basket.

They're going to be just fined, and Jason Tatum is going to be us fine, and I'll defend him in about ten minutes. All right, Let's go to the opposite of the Boston Celtics, literally the opposite team, the Denver Nuggets, who has an underdog went into okase and dominated the late game situations. The Nuggets shoot the fewest threes in the NBA. They live at the free throw line because Jokic can create so many opportunities around the basket. And Jokic, unlike Tatum, is a coach on the floor, does not care if he offends people. Is mostly collaborative, but sometimes he takes over. And if you go to the fourth quarter, okse got tight. The young, nervous, at times terrified, thunder at home froze. They froze. And this was Yokic at his best coaching and playing. He is the anti Kawhi. He communicates with everybody I mean, obviously he empowers Aaron Gordon and so Westbrook, but it should be noted Jamal Murray as well. I mean this right now, there was a time when Michael Jordan, I've told the story before. I was on a couch watching Michael Jordan against the Phoenix Suns in the final and with a with a with a friend who's a great basketball player, and I said, why can't there be more Michaels. I mean, he's not the strongest player or the biggest player. He's not the best ball handler, the best shooter. The NBA average size is sixty six. He's six six, kind of thin. I mean, I know he can jump, but Dominique at a higher vertical Michael was so much better than even Charles Barkley, you know, like even a team. And you watch Jokic. He is so far and away the best basketball player in the world. And now he's also the best player coach, which Bill Russell did for a while. I mean, you got Tatum, he can freeze, You got Jannis, don't trust him, late can't hit a free throw. You got him beat he's never healthy. You got Kawhi weird personality. You've got Luca who's not in great shape and is not willing to defend. And for the record, not only is Yokch flawless offensively, he's actually an improved defensive player. He looks like he's in better shape. So again, this game was not just Yokich, although he was remarkable. Westbrook once again gives you so many tools in the bag, including improved shooting. Congrats to a shooting coach. Also, Aaron Gordon is another one of these guys. I was talking before the show to Jmac, that young player for Houston. I love a Men Thompson. Aaron Gordon's like a bigger, stronger, more experienced version of a Men Thompson. He just does everything. Rebounds, block shots late in games, tipping it, defending length, relentless energy, and he hits the game winner last night. And what I love about Yokich is this mentality. Here's an organization that went through a coaching change a week before the playoffs, so you can see yolkicic on the sideline. He's literally like, you know, we're all like, we got to be included in this. If you go back to that Clipper Denver series, this is what the Clippers needed and they have a great coach in Tylou. But Kawhi doesn't provide that, and Harden certainly doesn't provide that. It's always excuses for those two. Here is Jokic saying, yeah, I'm not going to be stoic. It's not a time to be stoic. He is coaching, he is playing, he is elevating and but but again, not at all a guy that has to take the last shot. It's Westbrook and Aaron Gordon who combined for the last shot. And here's Jokic after he's the.

Soul of this team. He's a glue guy. He's PA doesn't give him much respect does he deserve? But I think he doesn't need no attention. So he knows what he's doing. So I'm happy for him.

A remarkable, remarkable night. And we were talking about this. There are a lot of cliches in basketball, right in all sports. But don't trust young guys in the playoffs. People always say to me, you don't respect OKC. It's not that I don't respect them, I don't trust them. I respect a lot of people, love many, trust few. I don't trust Okac. In a big spot chat, Holmgren was nervous the coach was nervous. And by the way, OKAYC, he's one of those collaborative teams. You get it and I get it. But to be honest with you, I want to Skja with the ball. That's why I want shooting every shot eight straight. I wish Tatum. You know Sga in the regular season, he's a machine. But when you get into these playoff games. That's why OKC played no close games this year. Minnesota led the NBA in close games and clutch moments. So here you get OKC rolling everybody, and it's like, oh wait, we're the favorite. Denver's older and wiser, all these great players. How many playoff games is Westbrook and Jokich and Murray and Gordon Okasey got tight? They're not in close games. This isn't college football where if you're winning by three touchdowns you just have better players. I mean, I would argue O Casey's got a deeper roster, but if you're giving me a starting five and I get Jokich and Murray and Gordon, and then I get like a Westbrook, who's a spark plug. We talked about this yesterday. The betting markets have O Casey is an overwhelming favorite time out. Young teams do not sweep veteran teams with a trophy who have been in these games. We've been trying to bury the Warriors for six years. Denver's not going anywhere. That is a really good team. J Mack. By the way, Steph didn't play last night. Lebron didn't play last night, and the league was fine.

So listen. I could beat up on Jason Tatum today, but there's so much I like about him. Smart, thoughtful, collaborative, good teammate, great player. So let me put this. You know, Phil Jackson is the greatest basketball coach, and Steve Kurrz pretty good, and so is Spolstra. There's a lot of good coaches Papovich, but Phil Jackson was the zen master and he did the triangle offense. But there was also times that Phil knew alm all back up, Kobe's on a heater. I'm gonna let Michael do what Michael's doing. And I say this all the time, about business. You can't get too rigid. You gotta make exceptions every day at this company, you gotta make an exception. You can have values, you can have vision. But here's where I'm gonna defend Jason Tatum. So he had another one of those nights where he lacked aggressiveness and it looks like he was one in nine in fourth quarter and overtime. So listen, Steph had bad nights. I saw a finals game Michael Jordan against Utah. He had a bad night. Kobe had bad nights, Shack had bad nights. That's okay. What I don't want is my super talented athletic six' eight wing with great handles settling for. Threes but The celtics three point culture is demanding. It so it Puts Jason, tatum a, collaborative nice, guy in a weird. Spot his free throw numbers have gone down three straight. Years why because The celtics want more threes Than if you shoot, threes you don't get to the free throw. Line that's why it Took Jimmy butler for The warriors to finally get to the three point. Line So tatum can easily beat guys off the dribble all night, long but he keeps getting to the free throw line less and less because The celtics are. Paralyzed they have this culture where they're just. Paralyzed we got to shoot fifty five, threes AND i think it Puts Jason, tatum a nice guy in a collaborative, guy in a weird. Spot so last, NIGHT i mean, again If kobe was on this, team he would Get missoula. FIRED i, Mean Michael jordan would Have missoula going upstairs. Daily michael would fight this, stuff And Phil jackson understood sometimes you just gotta let special. Happen and last, night nine seconds, left game is. TIED i don't one of three From Jason. TATUM i want to, bucket put it on the deck and beat your, man, which by the, way he. Can he's a brilliant basketball. Player but The celtics shoot more. THREES i mean they literally last in THE nba in free throw attempts and third to last in. Layups it's like when they're, bad they just. Settle and SO i think there are coaches SOMETIMES i Think Jayson tatum should just impose his will and deal with the repercussions. Later who cares If missoula yells At, yet they're not going to Fire. Tatum they'd move off a coach before they'd move Off Jason. Tatum this is just it's kind of Like Bobby knight, basketball, Right, like this is the way we play. Basketball players more than any, athlete along with soccer, stars they're. Artists you have to let them improvise basketball at its. Best they call soccer the beautiful game because it is the great. Players they just need. Opportunities you just gotta Let ronaldo do his, thing play out of structure from time to. Time it doesn't mean you're blowing up. Structure you're not creating a. Precedent Says Jason. Tatum is the best, player, dude it's your. Ball next. Three just get to the, basket get to the, line get out of the culture in the system that's paralyzed by. Three so, Again tatum is such a nice guy and he is such a great collaborative player THAT i watch his body. Language there are times that's like and By you can watch him put the ball in the deck and immediately beat his. Guy he could get to the basket all night, long but he's gonna play within the. System he's A duke guy And celtic guy and the culture does. Work but last night you got nine seconds left and it, Again jason just go get. Fouled he's a brilliant player WHO i believe at, times not all the, time but at times feels he's a little trapped by this three point culture that doesn't want mid. RANGE i, mean look at the shots fourth quarter and. Overtime look at the second half shots from The. CELTICS i mean they just. Settle that's what they. Do that's why they never get to the free throw. Lines why The warriors Before, jimmy they don't get to the free throw. Line Here's tatum After how do you.

So listen. I could beat up on Jason Tatum today, but there's so much I like about him. Smart, thoughtful, collaborative, good teammate, great player. So let me put this.

Stafford you're a lot younger than. Me what's it? Mattered oh, oh he's fired. Shots, okay well that's the, news and thanks for stopping by the. Herd lie What i'm about to. Say i'm not advocating that you should empty your four to oh one. K don't do. That don't empty your four oh one. K it's quite a tax. Bill And i'm not saying you shouldn't always have a horizon or your line on or your site on the. Future i'm not saying. That but when it comes to, sports sometimes these teams are busy preparing for the. Future just win, now don't worry about the succession. Plan SO i was thinking about this with The. Rams Matt stafford just finalized a new deal forty four million a, year very team, friendly And sean, McVay the head, coach smart, guy, says, HEY i Think i'd like to keep him around for a. While so he's thirty seven years old and The rams have two first round picks next. Year and my take, is take the best offensive tackle in the best. Corner why do you have to take a? Quarterback you think that guy's going to come in and be better Than Matt stafford in the next two to three. Years, Remember Stan cronk is the richest. Owner he'll just go over pay and buy the richest. Quarterback And sean McVay at thirty seven will squeeze every last ounce of juice out Of Matt. Stafford stafford's thirty. Seven do you remember What Tom brady did after turning seven Four Super bowls three And Super bowls forty seven thousand, yards throwing in one hundred and twenty. Wins And i'm not Saying stafford Is, brady but That's tom post thirty. Seven why did The patriots move Off? Brady Was tom the? Problem the? Opposite he was the life preserver In New. England the boat sank them into the. Left they couldn't. Draft belichick took over personnel and had a seven year stretch where he couldn't draft. Players this whole thing about Replacing Matt. Stafford think about. This if you Think i'm, wrong think about the. Teams let's Take mahomes out of. This who maybe the most talented quarterback, Ever let's just take him. Out i'm going to name quarterbacks first round quarterbacks who were home, runs not a's all time. Talent Lamar, Jackson Josh, Allen Justin, Herbert Joe, burrow C. J, stroud zero super, bowls one Super bowl, appearance add all their years, up one Super bowl Appearance Joe burrow and who to get beat by guy over my, Shoulder Matt. Stafford this idea of the succession. Plan i'm not saying The rams can't take a quarterback in the third or fourth round next, year fifth. Round even if you Got Drew. Aller how many years Would Drew? Aller how many snaps in THE nfl would he have to take until he was as good pre snap As Matt. Stafford that's four. Years stafford's one of the best pre snap guys in the. League he's on a short list Of Peyton, Manning Brady mahomes' pre snap getting. Yourself he's a brilliant and he's also got one of the great natural. Arms in the. League SO i, mean it's different Than Aaron rodgers In Green, Bay, colin what About Aaron rodgers In Green? Bay he was, declining he was a pain in the butt and his last year he had a losing. Record stafford is one play from getting to THE Nfc. Championship so WHENEVER i see, LIKE i see, this we do this all the. Time in, sports people have been trying to bury The warriors In Steph curry for. Years they tried to Burry brady. Forever New england should have just Kept brady And belichick shoulda hire a REAL gm and let him draft players the vote saint them in that he. Left If Steph curry left, Tomorrow warriors are. DONE i, mean how long have The bulls been rebuilding Post Jordan Last? Dance last? Dance how about you dance UNTIL i have to bring into oxygen. Canister The bulls are still trying to Relace. Michael The dolphins are still trying to Replace. Marino denver had to go Buy Peyton manning the waist lway and he was on his fourth neck. Surgery when something is great in, sports we Buried tiger then he won Another. MASTERS i Mean Jack nicholas at the. End we do. This we do this In. Hollywood we're trying to find the next star who fills the. Theater Tom. Cruise everybody Thinks Silicon valley's all these twenty one year old, hipsters all the big Dogs zuckerberg now, forties, fifties. Sixties so this idea, that, oh the succession plan For Matt, stafford there isn't. One The rams have virtually no chance to draft a quarterback not only not as good As, stafford or maybe not as close to as good As. Stafford that's how good he. Is because even the teams Like buffalo And baltimore And houston and The, chargers all these teams that At cincinnati that have hit home, runs you're not getting the Super. Bowls sometimes these. Teams last year Brough di he make the. Playoffs So Matt stafford's deal is so reasonable for his. Talent AND i understood The, rams you, KNOW i talked to. Him they didn't love this year's quarterback, class and they think next years is. Better and by all, means if you're not gonna Get Arts, manning they'll be too. Good it doesn't. Matter but if you can move up and say and not have to give up one of your first round. Picks but this idea That i'm going to give up two first couple of, fives the six to my, guy just Get stafford better. Players The rams should have drafted a. Corner they. Didn't that's why they're interested In Jalen. Ramsey so those first two picks next, year go get the best. Corner end of the first. Round it's a very good corner. Draft top of the first. Round it's a very good offensive tackle. Draft those are the two positions they. Need and that's about. It this team's good enough to win a Super. Bowl get him next. Year they've got two first two, fifths two, six two. Seven if you want to move, up do, it but get guys who can. Play don't replace the guy who's as good as almost anybody in the. Sport and Again i'm not, saying you, know spend your Roth, Ira i'm not saying. That but when it comes to sports like they're They're Brady post thirty seven through for forty seven thousand. Yards you're telling me if you got if you use next year's, draft they they need a. Corner and then you just got another high draft pick offensive, line another tight end another. Receiver just Give stafford better gifts instead of trying to replace. Them it's a.

Stafford you're a lot younger than. Me what's it? Mattered oh, oh he's fired. Shots, okay well that's the, news and thanks for stopping by the. Herd lie What i'm about to. Say i'm not advocating that you should empty your four to oh one. K don't do. That don't empty your four oh one. K it's quite a tax.

Didn't that's why they're interested In Jalen. Ramsey so those first two picks next, year go get the best. Corner end of the first. Round it's a very good corner. Draft top of the first. Round it's a very good offensive tackle. Draft those are the two positions they. Need and that's about. It this team's good enough to win a Super. Bowl get him next. Year they've got two first two, fifths two, six two. Seven if you want to move, up do, it but get guys who can. Play don't replace the guy who's as good as almost anybody in the. Sport and Again i'm not, saying you, know spend your Roth, Ira i'm not saying. That but when it comes to sports like they're They're Brady post thirty seven through for forty seven thousand. Yards you're telling me if you got if you use next year's, draft they they need a. Corner and then you just got another high draft pick offensive, line another tight end another. Receiver just Give stafford better gifts instead of trying to replace. Them it's a.

DEAL.

DEAL.

Nbc you figure out how to make money. Back maybe it's round ball rock that's the. Answer but that's up to. You we got ours, guaranteed AND i think, privately if you Asked Adam silver who he wants to win this, series it would be ant In. Minnesota When michael, left this league didn't have a domestic, star and there's the international players are taking over the league once. Again, jokic best player in the, world best player ON tv last. Night once, Again tatum doesn't have the. Riz ant has maximum, riz the, aura the, smile the, aggressiveness the. Game he is the. Future THE nba has had this before where they lean on their star and as the star, ages they don't have the next. Act and last night was a great WATCHABLE nba night and you know who wasn't ON Tv lebron Or Steph and the league was just. Fine everybody was just. Fine what won't be fine is if you start renegotiating those deals with all your you, know all your broadcasting groups in six to seven years and you don't have a domestic. Face and the league is even more international because our basketball culture is so messed up in this COUNTRY aau and The european system is so much better at creating, skillful, smart focused. PLAYERS i, mean the league Wanted, Jahn morant And zion to be the. Face they just weren't ready for. It and it's. Ready the, game the, aura the, staff the, coach the, collective the. Roster SO i think privately now that the NBA's got its money and it's a classic short term. Pain minnesota wouldn't get the rating this year That Golden state Would but if you could pick a team to Beat, minnesota it would be The warriors and staff that would be the team you'd. Pick but right now for him to KNOCK i MEAN i was looking here this, morning think about. This he's knocked Out Kevin durant, Before Devin, Booker, Jokich Lebron, luca next, Up Steph. Curry in the last couple of, years he is knocking out the stars of the. League that's How michael became the face of. It that's How shaq And. Kobe shaq And kobe Had Del harris for. Years they were, very very. Young they couldn't get past the superior. Rosters then as they, age here Comes phil and you got to win, Titles you got to get to championships to be the face of the. LEAGUE i don't think the league needs a domestic face of the. League but it's ridiculous to argue it doesn't. Help you don't Think Aaron judge putting up ridiculous cartoon. Numbers you don't Think Rob manfred loves A yankee on pace to hit four. Twenty so Here's Steve kerr on.

Superstar, okay so we got to talk about this, again and all YEAR i kept, SAYING i JUST i Think cleveland Or boston are gonna win the. Championship AND i said, Yesterday denver's not getting. Swept denver's too. Good denver's got too many good, players too much, size best player in the. World so one of the things you have to be careful. OF i remember years, Ago Derreck rose and The Chicago bulls were just crushing people in the regular. Season then they Faced lebron in the. Postseason it's, like bye, Bye it's. Over not THAT i didn't Think derek was, great but he Wasn't, lebron who shut him down is a big on a small shut him. Down so last night it's a prime. EXAMPLE i Think okase would have been better playing In. Denver huge favorite at, home world's. Watching they got totally. Tight Chet holmgren shoot seventy eight percent from the free throw. Line dude missed a pair late and look, nervous and they coached, nervous and they played. Nervous And denver didn't Because denver's been in these games. Before just think of all the big games That, Jokich Murray, westbrook And Aaron gordon have been. In how many big games IS sga been? In how many big games Is Chet holmgren beIN? In it's not that. Many and so, also when you blow out people over the regular, season and we've seen this before in other. Sports one of the reasons it was a huge advantage for The Kansas City chiefs last. Year now they got worked in The Super, bowl but they played in so many close. Games they were really good in close. Games and a team Like baltimore Or, detroit by the, way who the last couple of years have been blowing people. Out oh now we trail, late, Well Kansas city trailed all the time. Late huge. Advantage so HERE'S. Sga you, know Chat, Holndren, dude that's a bad. Miss that's not a, rattler that's not look at this.
