00:00 (upbeat music)
00:02 - All right, Rundown, Thursday, May 9th,
00:06 brought to you by Pink Whitney.
00:07 Head over to your local bar
00:08 and make sure to order some Pink Whitney.
00:10 Exceptionally smooth, great tasting vodka
00:12 with notes of refreshing lemon.
00:13 Pink Whitney is the number one flavored vodka,
00:15 and now they have 1.75 liter bottles.
00:17 More of the Pink Whitney we know and love.
00:19 Great for parties and sharing with friends.
00:21 Take a shot of Pink Whitney.
00:22 Take your shot of Pink Whitney.
00:24 All right, Nick Spacer's theme on the Rundown.
00:28 That's gonna open the stories.
00:30 Nick's win, 130 to 121.
00:32 Jalen Brunson with a Willis Reed moment on the history,
00:35 on the anniversary of the Willis Reed game.
00:37 Man's a dog.
00:38 Lot of stuff out of the game.
00:42 Some missed calls, we get to Carlisle.
00:44 Josh Hart apologizes, which he shouldn't apologize.
00:47 I mean, he was laughing about it.
00:49 - It wasn't an apology, he was,
00:51 oh, he actually apologized for it?
00:53 - I'm sorry, it wasn't like--
00:55 - Oh, I thought he apologized for that.
00:57 - Yeah, so for those unfamiliar,
00:59 we didn't have the volume up as much,
01:01 so we didn't catch it live,
01:02 but he walks over to Reggie Miller,
01:03 he's like, "They said fuck you.
01:04 "They're saying fuck you."
01:05 Reggie Miller, he's got a smile like this one.
01:07 - So make sure you heard it.
01:08 - As much as I don't like Reggie Miller,
01:09 he ruined my communion.
01:11 I was at that game with the eight points and nine seconds
01:13 as a little kid.
01:14 But he does play the villain pretty well.
01:17 Like, he's hamming it off, he's laughing about it.
01:20 - History has been great for Reggie Miller.
01:23 He wasn't that dominant.
01:24 - What's his record in the garden?
01:25 We looked it up last night.
01:26 - It was seven and 28, which is horrible.
01:29 - I think it was seven and 27.
01:30 - Seven and 27.
01:31 - And then even in the run,
01:32 they played in the playoffs three times
01:34 and the series was three-three.
01:35 - Yeah.
01:36 - But people from Indiana--
01:37 - Six times.
01:38 - Yeah, six times, yeah, three-piece.
01:40 - People from Indiana support Reggie,
01:41 they support the Pacers,
01:42 but growing up in Indiana,
01:43 we didn't love Reggie Miller.
01:46 He wasn't cool, you know what I mean?
01:47 Like, "Oh, I wanna be Reggie."
01:50 We all wanted to be Michael Jordan still.
01:51 - Right, right.
01:52 - Reggie was just like, yeah, our guy,
01:54 we supported him, but we didn't wanna be Reggie.
01:56 - Right.
01:57 I mean, he was, I think he would,
01:59 you talk about guys who would like,
02:01 dominate in this style of the NBA,
02:03 Reggie Miller would have a field day nowadays.
02:04 - Absolutely.
02:05 - Yeah, for sure.
02:06 - Where threes were encouraged.
02:07 - For sure.
02:08 - He would kill it.
02:09 But I think he's playing the villain up well.
02:11 Josh Hart had a great moment, you know, with that.
02:14 Thought that was very funny.
02:15 Rick Kyler upset with officiating after the game.
02:18 Small market teams deserve an equal shot.
02:20 This is kind of a bitch thing.
02:23 It says in game one, there were 29 plays
02:25 that they thought went the wrong way,
02:27 but neglected to submit complaints to the league office.
02:31 Kyler was especially upset last night.
02:32 He gets ejected.
02:33 Halliburton being pushed in the back by Josh Hart.
02:35 We said live that should have been a foul.
02:37 - No, we didn't.
02:37 You said that.
02:39 - Yeah, it should have been a foul.
02:41 So he's got--
02:42 - No, but then we looked at it after,
02:42 and he kinda got sandwiched.
02:44 - No, I'm talking about the play.
02:45 - I know what play you're talking about.
02:46 - Where Hart's like shoving,
02:47 and then he's going down. - Yeah, but then he kinda got,
02:49 as he's going down the court.
02:50 - But the--
02:51 - The big guy was kinda in front of him,
02:52 and he ended up getting like--
02:53 - The Tyrese, yeah, we got sandwiched.
02:54 - No, now you're talking about the rebound?
02:56 - Yeah.
02:57 - I'm talking about the play running down the court.
02:59 Remember we were like, Vibs, you had that one?
03:00 He absolutely shoved him on that.
03:01 - He said they're going after their backs.
03:02 - Absolutely shoved him on that.
03:03 - His injured back.
03:04 - So the Pacers have submitted complaints
03:05 about 78 different calls between games one and two
03:07 to the league office.
03:08 - Yeah, should we run the next video for--
03:11 - I was gonna lay off saying I respect Vibs
03:14 taking the road that, shut up, don't complain.
03:17 I respect that, because it's just such a thing
03:20 where it's brutal when you're on either side of it,
03:23 because when you're on the side where everyone's saying
03:24 you're getting the calls, it's like, yeah, fuck you.
03:28 Or I should say it the other way,
03:29 when you're the one, when you feel like
03:31 you're getting slighted on the calls,
03:32 literally no one gives a fuck.
03:34 But then it's kinda annoying with this Knicks,
03:36 and we're feeling, I understand it's like
03:37 the Brash fan base, we've been running our mouths,
03:40 we're good for the first time ever, it feels like.
03:42 So it just, and I guess when I'm in it as a Knicks fan,
03:45 it feels like everyone's like, no, fuck you,
03:46 you're not getting, you're getting all the calls,
03:48 blah, blah, blah.
03:49 - But I mean, it's just such a soft move to,
03:52 like, the Knicks dominated the second half.
03:54 Like, say what you want about officiating,
03:56 they dominated the second half, that is why they won.
03:58 And I respect Halliburton, got on the mic afterwards,
04:01 like, officiating is not why we lost, we got outplayed.
04:04 And I respect them taking that high road,
04:06 and I respect you taking that.
04:07 - That's what Rick Carlisle did after game one.
04:09 Rick Carlisle got on the mic and was like,
04:10 yeah, the refs sucked, but that's not why we lost.
04:13 I don't even think he said they sucked.
04:14 But he was like, that's not why we lost,
04:15 we need to close out games, 100%.
04:17 But then after game two, Rick Carlisle
04:18 wants to get on the mic and be like,
04:20 well, the refs cost us the game,
04:21 conspiracy theory against small market teams.
04:24 Like, I understand--
04:25 - The small market thing is bullshit,
04:26 but to Carlisle's point, though,
04:28 if it's only getting worse, I think you do have to stop.
04:31 It was 29 in game one, now it gets to 78,
04:34 of what they say, 78 missed calls.
04:36 You gotta say something.
04:36 - Yeah, you gotta protect your team.
04:38 - That's just what they're saying.
04:39 Like, that's not like-- - Right.
04:41 - They submitted that they missed 49 calls in game two?
04:45 Like, come on, man, what are we talking about?
04:47 What are we talking?
04:48 They missed 49 calls?
04:50 You're telling me that, like,
04:51 obviously there was some that you could've went
04:52 the other way as well.
04:54 Like, I just think that's just an obscene number
04:57 to submit, like, it just sounds ridiculous.
04:59 That sounds like a skit.
05:00 - Yeah.
05:01 - 78 calls over two games?
05:02 - I mean, you're just submitting the entire game.
05:04 - That's what I'm saying, like, come on, man.
05:05 - Here's the entire game tape, here you go.
05:07 - They missed 78 calls out of 100?
05:09 - I will say-- - I mean, what?
05:11 - You can't say Jalen Brunson is disrespected
05:13 when he gets a superstar whistle.
05:15 Like, he gets calls.
05:16 - Oh, no, I say-- - The refs--
05:18 - I always say they're disrespected by, like,
05:20 the general public, like, when they talk about other players,
05:23 it just feels like they'll always take that guy over.
05:25 - Yeah, I feel like going into this--
05:26 - He gets a good whistle.
05:27 - Before this season, like, if,
05:29 I understand people not really knowing, like,
05:31 a Tyrese Maxey or a Jalen Brunson,
05:33 but now after what they've done this season, like,
05:35 they're up there in those conversations
05:37 with, like, great players.
05:39 - What'd you think about McConnell being left on the bench?
05:42 - I mean, that's my problem with Rick.
05:43 Like, Rick wants to bitch about fouls,
05:44 and it's like, you left McConnell on the bench,
05:46 like, Pascal Siakam, the guy who's supposed to be
05:48 your number one, number two player,
05:51 did nothing last night.
05:52 He was a ghost.
05:53 He didn't show up.
05:55 And he has a ring.
05:56 He's been to a championship.
05:57 Like, what the fuck are you doing, Pascal?
05:58 You want a max fucking contract?
06:00 Fuck you.
06:01 - Plus 19 when he was on the court, minus 32 with him off.
06:05 - Unreal, but yeah, like, TJ McConnell.
06:07 What is Rick saving TJ McConnell for?
06:09 Like, the Eastern Conference Finals?
06:11 Are we going to the Eastern Conference Finals, Rick?
06:13 Is that what you're saving him for?
06:14 Like, he should be playing.
06:15 I don't care.
06:16 - Yeah.
06:17 - Even, like, I feel like there was a shot
06:18 kind of towards the end of the game
06:19 where they show him on the bench,
06:20 and you could just see, like, the visible frustration
06:23 that he's just on the bench.
06:25 - He's like, I was going to say, he's like our Josh Hart.
06:27 Like, TJ McConnell doesn't need to rest.
06:30 Like, he just, he will go all game.
06:34 He has a fifth gear that he clicks into and goes.
06:37 - Whose minutes?
06:37 You want him taking Nemharts minutes?
06:39 Whose minutes?
06:40 - Nimby's, yeah, 'cause Nimby, he's been good.
06:44 Like, you look at him, watch him guarding, like, Brunson,
06:46 and he's so, like, it's not that he's a bad defender.
06:49 It's just like, if you make,
06:50 if you played Brunson too hard,
06:51 he's going to draw the foul.
06:53 He's going to go right past you.
06:54 He's going to, he can hit a three.
06:54 Like, Brunson's just that good.
06:56 It's like, Nimby has done a good job, but,
06:58 and I'm not saying TJ McConnell can stop Brunson,
07:00 but TJ McConnell can kind of pester him
07:02 and get in his, get in his mouth,
07:05 and it's just like, pause.
07:06 But it's like, TJ McConnell being on the bench.
07:09 He was your best player last night,
07:11 and he's just on the bench for the last seven minutes
07:14 of the fourth quarter.
07:15 - Did you see Shannon Sharpe's tweet?
07:17 - No.
07:18 - Very funny.
07:18 Yeah, it was like, take them hard,
07:19 and make TJ in the game.
07:20 I'll run to see what them hard on.
07:21 It's oxtails, mac and cheese, collard greens, cornbread.
07:24 - Jesus Christ.
07:24 - That's like Sunday dinner.
07:26 (laughing)
07:27 - Sunday dinner, all right.
07:27 I was waiting to get to the punchline.
07:29 - So funny.
07:30 - That's crazy.
07:31 Yeah, he was cooking them.
07:32 - Barbecue.
07:33 - He was cooking them.
07:33 Yeah, I mean, you got to put McConnell in.
07:34 So now backs up against the wall.
07:36 Knicks just have to split, really.
07:38 - Yeah.
07:39 - In the, but again, OG goes down.
07:42 Like, I'm hearing.
07:42 - And they're saying not good.
07:45 - No, I'm hearing like 99% out for game three.
07:49 - Probably sitting game three, yeah.
07:50 - Yeah, but we don't know about the series.
07:51 I knew he was going to sit game.
07:52 I estimated he would sit game three.
07:54 We got nobody left now.
07:55 Nobody.
07:56 - When he was out of the game for literally
07:58 like three minutes in real, like not like game time.
08:00 Like it felt like three, four minutes.
08:02 And they were like, he's not coming back in the game.
08:04 - Right.
08:04 - The second it was like that quick,
08:05 I was like, oh, that's a problem.
08:06 - Yeah, I mean, it didn't look good.
08:07 - When you're announcing him out,
08:08 when there was like, there was like nine minutes
08:09 left in the game.
08:10 So there's a lot of time left.
08:11 And they're saying, oh, like he's done.
08:12 I was like.
08:13 - But he's got size.
08:14 He plays defense.
08:15 Like now I don't, I don't know.
08:16 - Score.
08:17 - Line up now.
08:17 - Dude, he kept us.
08:18 - Yes.
08:19 - When Brunson was out, he literally kept the game.
08:20 - When Brunson was out, he like literally
08:21 kept the game.
08:22 - He's a good three point shooter.
08:22 - He's within reach.
08:23 - Agreed.
08:24 - Every three he puts up, you're just like, that's it.
08:25 I don't know if he missed a shot.
08:26 - No, he's, he's.
08:27 - He's so good.
08:27 - He's phenomenal.
08:28 That might've been like his best game as a Knick last night.
08:30 - Yes.
08:31 - Knicks, that was a piss me off about Knicks fans being
08:33 like, oh, we got rid of RJ Barrett.
08:34 Like we're so stupid.
08:35 It's like, OG is a stud.
08:37 Like that's how you knew some Knicks fans didn't know ball
08:40 when they were upset about OG coming in.
08:41 - Yeah.
08:42 Playoff games tonight, Cavs Celtics.
08:44 I gotta be honest.
08:45 I think the Cavs Celtics series is like just background noise.
08:48 I'm watching it, but it's true background noise.
08:50 Like the Celtics, get it done with,
08:53 get to the Eastern Conference Finals
08:54 where you're supposed to go.
08:55 And then let's go from there.
08:56 This is a, an absolute waste of time.
08:59 Anything, if it goes more than even four.
09:01 On the other hand though, Mavs Thunder is a great series.
09:03 I know the Thunder kind of beat them up in game one.
09:06 Would not surprise me if the Mavs win tonight,
09:08 but the Thunder has a great home court advantage.
09:10 The young guns in this, in the West are a lot of fun.
09:12 I mean, you're potentially looking at a Timberwolves
09:15 Thunder Conference Finals.
09:17 Like what the fuck is that?
09:17 - I think that could be, I mean, it could be like
09:19 potentially we could see a lot of that going forward.
09:22 - Oh yeah.
09:23 - Which I would be fucking incredible.
09:25 I mean, it's funny.
09:26 We talked about a pick center where it's like the two teams
09:27 that come into the playoffs, people thought,
09:29 oh, maybe like they're like, they're,
09:31 they obviously had great regular season,
09:33 but they might be like, you know,
09:34 like a year or two away from getting over the hump.
09:35 And like, here we are.
09:37 Obviously the Mavs series, a lot, a lot of game left,
09:39 only, only one game in.
09:40 So that, that series could turn tonight.
09:42 We'll see, but decent chance that we see like the two,
09:45 like young teams, I think good chance.
09:47 One of them's in the, one of them's in the finals.
09:49 - Thunder, the better team, Mavs, the bigger superstars.
09:53 - That's what I think.
09:53 - Yeah.
09:54 - That's what I would say.
09:55 - I think that's an accurate way to describe it.
09:57 - Yeah.
09:58 - Jokic wins his third MVP in a landslide.
10:00 Jokic has won three MVPs in the last four seasons.
10:02 Now me and Ev talked to Gilbert Arenas out in Arizona
10:06 and he had the idea that they didn't want to give Jokic
10:09 his third in a row.
10:11 - Last.
10:12 - That early, right?
10:13 Yeah, because it would be like, well,
10:14 so few guys have won three MVPs.
10:18 It's a very, very minimal list.
10:20 So to give him three that early,
10:23 like it would have made him the worst three-time NBA
10:27 winner.
10:28 Like, look at that, look at that list.
10:29 It's Jabbar, Jordan, James, Russell, Bird, Chamberlain,
10:33 Magic, and then Moses, and then Jokic.
10:37 Jokic finally got on the list.
10:39 Jokic should be ahead of Larry Bird.
10:41 Then you're putting Jokic ahead of Larry Bird,
10:42 Will Chamberlain, Magic Johnson.
10:43 So it's revisionist history.
10:45 So like, but me, we were getting upset about it.
10:47 We're not upset about it, but we were like,
10:48 that's bullshit just because you fuck up.
10:52 Don't revision, like, don't just change it now.
10:54 Like, guy deserves to win.
10:55 He deserves to win.
10:56 Like the fact that Bird only won three, you know,
10:59 I don't know if Bird should have won more,
11:01 but it seems like they fucked up some of them.
11:03 - Jokic is so good, but does it matter
11:04 that he's on like the best team?
11:06 He has the best guys around.
11:07 - But see, I think they're the best.
11:10 - Because of him?
11:11 - I think it's because of him.
11:11 Like, I think you take them off that team
11:13 and they are just like, like, I don't know.
11:14 - They're okay.
11:15 - I think they're like, I think they're made,
11:17 I don't even know if they're like a playoff team
11:18 without him in the West.
11:19 The West is a gauntlet.
11:20 - Yeah.
11:21 - Very hard.
11:22 - You think, like, think about how close that,
11:23 like the Lakers series, they were like the seven seed.
11:26 You think they beat the Lakers without Jokic?
11:27 I don't think so.
11:28 - Right, yeah.
11:29 Like Murray's fine, but.
11:30 - He's good, like very,
11:31 Jokic is very good at his clutch.
11:31 - He's not doing anything without Jokic, yeah.
11:32 - But I think Jokic also, the way he,
11:35 not even just the scoring, the rebounding,
11:36 the facilitating, he makes everyone better.
11:38 I think you take them off the team,
11:39 they go from like the two seed to legit like nine seed.
11:42 - You take, you take SGA off the Thunder.
11:45 What do they do?
11:45 Like, are they?
11:46 - They're still really good.
11:47 - They're good.
11:48 - Yeah.
11:49 - It's, yeah, it's,
11:50 they're obviously still take a massive hit,
11:51 but they're definitely.
11:52 - I think Jokic means more to his team.
11:54 - Agreed, agreed.
11:55 - Speaking of SGA, Shaq had a really honest quote.
11:57 The TNC guys are great.
11:59 That's why this whole Wrights deal is gonna be interesting
12:01 if nobody gobbles up these guys.
12:03 But Shaq was authentic.
12:04 He tells Jokic to his face.
12:06 He's like, I voted for SGA.
12:08 He should've won the MVP.
12:09 - Gobbles up these guys.
12:10 - What?
12:11 - Gobbles up these guys.
12:12 We're getting crazy.
12:14 - What do you mean?
12:14 - T.
12:16 - If someone gobbles up these guys,
12:18 our verbiage is just.
12:20 - The TNT broadcast is great.
12:23 Well, the game sucks.
12:25 - I knew that was possible to get upset.
12:26 - I mean, you're out on the market.
12:28 You gobbled up.
12:29 - Little pauses.
12:29 - A little glaze, yeah.
12:30 - All right.
12:31 - Gobbles up these guys.
12:33 - All right, I guess I gotta say pause, whatever.
12:35 You're the best player in the league.
12:36 I wanna congratulate you,
12:37 but I want you to hear it from me first.
12:39 I thought SGA should've been the MVP.
12:40 That's no disrespect to you.
12:41 I think Jokic was like, yeah,
12:42 there's a lot of guys who deserve MVP.
12:44 He kind of brushed it off.
12:46 But I respect Shaq being honest about it.
12:47 He didn't just go up there and glaze 'em,
12:50 you know, like rightfully so.
12:52 They say what they want, so.
12:53 - Yeah, I don't know.
12:55 It's like whenever, if you're a standup comedian,
12:57 and someone comes up to you after the show,
12:58 and they're like, hey, I didn't think you were funny at all,
13:00 but my wife likes you a lot.
13:02 It's like, why do you even say it?
13:03 - No, I think it's different.
13:05 I think he's acknowledging how good he was.
13:09 I think the better comparison to that was
13:11 you go to a comedian's show, and you're like,
13:13 yeah, it wasn't as good as when I saw a blank last week.
13:16 You get what I'm saying?
13:17 He's still acknowledging the guy's good.
13:18 He just thought somebody was better.
13:19 - I think this was more, it was more 'cause
13:21 they were talking about it before he came on,
13:24 and Shaq had gave his opinion,
13:26 so he didn't want to be like, I literally just said,
13:28 like when you weren't on the screen,
13:30 that he should've won the MVP,
13:31 and then now I'm like sucking your dick.
13:33 - Yeah, they don't try to hide anything.
13:35 - I think they've obviously spoken
13:36 before they have some sort of relationship,
13:38 and he was like, I just wanted to let you know,
13:39 like, I said this, I thought you should know.
13:41 Discredit to the player you are,
13:43 and this and that were splitting hairs,
13:44 but that was like his opinion.
13:45 - Yeah, I think that's what makes the TNT broadcast
13:47 so great is that Shaq and Kenny and Chuck
13:50 aren't afraid to say what they want.
13:53 - I've told this story.
13:53 I read Kenny's book, and somebody came in
13:55 for like a guest spot, and they were like,
13:57 all right, if you take this side, I'll take this side,
14:00 and Kenny was like, yo, you believe this shit?
14:02 This guy thinks this stuff's planned.
14:03 They are authentic and take pride in the fact that
14:06 whatever opinion you have, you either agree with me
14:08 or you don't, we're not doing the good cop,
14:10 bad cop type shit.
14:11 So they are tried and true with that,
14:14 so I give him a lot of credit.
14:16 NHL playoffs, it was a fucking brawl last night.
14:19 They were like, there's route to Bruins,
14:20 six to one, series tied one-one.
14:22 - There were like eight fights within three months.
14:26 - Pasta fights, Ka-chunk gets his ass kicked,
14:29 but then Ev is really mad 'cause he jumps on top of him.
14:32 So Ka-chunk took a, I can't keep track.
14:35 Ka-chunk took a cheap shot, he was on all fours.
14:37 - Yeah, and in real time, I didn't like the fact that like,
14:40 I was, I don't know, like the hockey etiquette,
14:42 but I thought, like, how do you say guys in, Ka-chunk?
14:45 - Ka-chunk.
14:45 - Ka-chunk, he beat the shit out of the pasta,
14:48 beat the shit out of him, like knocked him down,
14:50 and then I had no problem with like the punch.
14:52 I guess like it's not in hockey culture,
14:53 like he basically already had him hurt bad like one,
14:55 he kind of jumped and threw like an extra one on top,
14:58 which I don't know the hockey code,
14:59 so I respect that, I understand that,
15:01 but I just thought it was such a pussy move
15:04 that pasta like got his ass kicked,
15:07 and then like kind of like this guy, Ka-chunk,
15:10 was being the shit out of him so badly
15:13 that the two refs had like literally jumped on top of him,
15:15 and he literally had two refs like fully,
15:17 their whole body weight on top of him,
15:18 pinned him on the ground,
15:19 and then pasta starts like throwing in
15:21 like little like punches after,
15:23 and I was like, dude, you just got destroyed.
15:25 Like why are you now, like two guys are literally
15:28 laying on top of this guy, now you're throwing punches,
15:30 so that to me just run me the wrong way.
15:31 I was like, you're getting ass kicked on the scoreboard,
15:34 you're getting your ass kicked in a real fight,
15:36 like now you're throwing little rabbit punches in
15:38 after like these two guys are holding him down,
15:39 but I will take a step back,
15:40 I don't know the hockey code,
15:41 so I understand the like, oh like Ka-chunk,
15:45 maybe like, maybe there was like one extra--
15:47 - Seems like everybody was dirty in this fight.
15:49 - Maybe one extra punch shouldn't have got thrown,
15:51 so I will take a step back,
15:52 and I will hear that and understand that,
15:54 but I just thought it was--
15:55 - You got game three, ranges up to nothing.
15:59 If you have to lose a series,
16:01 or you have to lose a game this playoffs,
16:03 going to the Hurricanes, Avalanche Stars,
16:06 I'm sweating this one out,
16:07 I got the Stars to win the cup,
16:08 they blew a three-year lead in game one,
16:10 up three-nothing in the first period too.
16:12 Edmonton loses last night in a wild one,
16:16 Oilers up four to one,
16:17 late in the second period,
16:18 can't score four straight goals in regulation.
16:20 - Dude it was crazy,
16:21 'cause I obviously don't bet a ton on hockey,
16:23 I just have a Rangers future,
16:24 just to have like some skinny game for the Bears.
16:26 - I got the Rangers too.
16:27 - But last night I get into the stream,
16:29 like the Oilers game was starting,
16:31 and our Jack was like, oh like,
16:32 I'm on, like I was like anyone,
16:33 like anything Jack said, like the Oilers,
16:35 so jumped on the Oilers,
16:36 and I'm like, get back last night,
16:38 sitting in bed, I'm like, oh four one,
16:39 like let's fucking go, like easy work.
16:41 Then all of a sudden I just start seeing on Twitter,
16:43 like oh like this comeback,
16:44 I'm like what the fuck's going on?
16:45 - Yeah, nuts.
16:46 - Then all of a sudden,
16:47 they're just losing five to four?
16:48 It was, they scored all four in the third period?
16:52 It was four two?
16:54 So yeah, so there's three unanswered.
16:56 - Yeah it was four two going into the third.
16:57 - Three in the third period, I mean I was like,
16:59 holy shit. - I was driving home
17:00 with security Dan,
17:01 and he had a parlay, and he needed that,
17:03 he had the over six and a half,
17:04 and then he needed Edmonton minus the one and a half,
17:08 so he didn't make it.
17:09 - That was, yeah brutal.
17:10 - I have a question for you New York fans.
17:12 Rangers are good, Yankees are good,
17:14 Knicks are good.
17:15 What's been a year with the teams being the best,
17:18 like what's been the best season for all the teams?
17:21 Like has there ever been a time
17:22 when they've all been good?
17:24 - Well I guess the--
17:24 - Is this the best time ever to be a New York fan?
17:26 - Well I guess the, technically in '94,
17:29 like that was when the Rangers won the cup,
17:31 and the Knicks were in the finals.
17:33 - But the baseball got canceled.
17:34 - That was before I was born.
17:35 - Baseball got canceled. - Yeah, right, right, right.
17:36 - I was born like four months later.
17:38 - Is this the best time for you, is this the best?
17:40 - Right now it's the best spring,
17:42 it's the best spring I can remember in a long time,
17:44 and I'm not a Yankee fan,
17:45 but it's an unbelievable spring with the Knicks
17:47 and the Rangers.
17:48 - And I'm like, I'm not any hockey fan,
17:50 I'm not a Rangers fan.
17:52 I literally just put a Futuronim,
17:53 I could as easy as well put it on anyone else.
17:55 - Yeah.
17:56 - Well it's cool, it's cool.
17:56 - I root for the Rangers, I will support them,
17:58 I want them to win, not even like money aside,
18:01 I would just want the Rangers to win over anyone else.
18:02 - You gotta remember the time of the year too,
18:04 like springtime, people wanna go out,
18:06 people wanna spend money, people wanna hang out,
18:08 watch games at bars, like if the Rangers are good,
18:10 now you got a playoff game to watch,
18:11 you know what I mean? - Absolutely, yeah, yeah.
18:12 - So it's an awesome time, and the way they do it,
18:14 because of the, obviously the courts and shit like that,
18:18 the Knicks and Rangers are alternating nights.
18:20 - It's really just-- - You're on like four in a row.
18:21 I mean, we were joking about it with Gaz,
18:22 I was like, this is like awesome,
18:24 like is this what spring is like?
18:25 He's like, yeah, we've been doing this for like 20 years,
18:27 'cause he was an elitist Boston fan,
18:28 but with the Bruins and Celtics,
18:31 but like this is an awesome run.
18:33 The Knicks and Rangers both making runs,
18:34 you got something to watch every night,
18:36 it means something, you're talking about it,
18:38 like you're sweating it out, the games mean so much more,
18:41 everybody wants to go out, everybody wants to watch,
18:43 it's a social event.
18:45 - Yeah, the weather being nice is so clutch with that.
18:47 Like March Madness is my favorite event, I love it,
18:50 but like the weather's always like a tease,
18:52 like sometimes it'll be warm,
18:53 but then there's times where it's like 40 degrees
18:56 and pouring rain, and it's just the worst.
18:58 So yeah, this time with NBA and with hockey,
19:00 it's incredible.
19:01 - Well, and that there's a chance we might get
19:03 like a double New York-Boston potential.
19:04 - Yeah, right.
19:05 - That's like very much on the table right now.
19:08 - I-95.
19:09 Jerry Seinfeld says,
19:11 "Howard Stern has no comedic chop, immediately backpedals."
19:14 Seinfeld, seven years old,
19:15 went on David Carvey and David Spade's
19:17 Fly on the Wall podcast and said,
19:20 "Howard is interesting,
19:21 "Howard is a great interviewer, but comedy chops,
19:23 "I mean, can we speak candidly?"
19:25 Said he was outflanked, then he immediately backtracks.
19:28 I said outflanked and it sounded terrible and insulting.
19:33 Of course, none of these things,
19:35 of course, none of these things show.
19:38 - These little shows.
19:38 - None of these little shows
19:39 are any threat to his giant show,
19:41 Howie, I still love you, please forgive me.
19:43 I don't know, I don't think Howard Stern
19:45 for the last like 10 years has been that funny.
19:47 He's a great interviewer, he gets people,
19:48 he asks the right questions,
19:49 he knows how to do things.
19:51 It looks like with a lot of, not even prep,
19:53 it doesn't look like he even has a sheet of questions
19:55 that he asks people.
19:56 It looks like he does it right off the top of his head.
19:58 And I do like listening to his interviews,
20:00 especially, you know, the town hall at Billy Joel,
20:02 and he's had a variety of different people on that I like.
20:05 - But when you've been doing it for like 30 plus years,
20:08 I get that, but he's like,
20:10 every comedian gets past their prime,
20:12 you know what I mean?
20:13 When you've been doing it for so long, it's like,
20:15 you can't--
20:16 - Would you ever consider him a comedian?
20:18 Howard Stern, I wouldn't consider him a comedian.
20:20 - That's hard, yeah.
20:22 - I mean, he was a shock jock,
20:23 and then he did a lot of things
20:24 that were like outlandish, like bad.
20:26 - But putting on funny segments is that, like--
20:29 - Yeah.
20:30 - I don't know, I wouldn't call him a standup comedian,
20:32 but I'd say he's a comedic mind.
20:34 - Yeah.
20:35 - You know, but he's not, yeah.
20:36 - He's in the comedic realm.
20:37 - Comedians can be different things,
20:38 you don't have to be a standup comedian to do it.
20:39 - He's in the comedic realm.
20:40 - Yeah, I would.
20:41 - And I was gonna say,
20:42 his show was always like built on comedy,
20:44 like having Artie Lang all the time,
20:45 and like Beetlejuice and shit like that.
20:47 Like, he definitely was trying to be funny.
20:49 - He's got a lot of problematic shit in his past too.
20:51 - Yeah.
20:52 - Stern, that a lot of people don't wanna talk about.
20:54 - Yeah, the whoopie goldberg stuff.
20:54 - He wants to be out in front of stuff,
20:56 yeah, it's a million different things.
20:58 - But also, Seinfeld, like--
21:01 - Seinfeld needs to be pressed too.
21:02 - I think it was back in like 2014,
21:03 he was already starting to be like,
21:05 "Oh, you can't go to college campuses
21:07 "and do comedy anymore 'cause they're all so offended."
21:08 And it's like, what are you saying to a crowd?
21:11 - Right, right, right, right.
21:12 - You're the cleanest comedian of all time,
21:14 like what are you doing?
21:15 So he's been on his like old man yelling
21:17 at fucking cloud shit for a while.
21:19 So, I mean, you could say Jerry Seinfeld's lost his--
21:22 - I agree, I mean, based off of this movie.
21:24 - Larry David is the one that--
21:25 - I haven't watched it, but everyone's saying
21:27 that the new movie, is it on Netflix?
21:29 What's it got?
21:30 - Yeah, I'm gonna be--
21:31 - Everyone's saying-- - It's horrible.
21:31 - And Chase said it was good, but everyone's saying
21:33 it's the worst movie they've ever seen.
21:36 - I watched like the first 10 minutes of it
21:37 before I fell asleep, but knowing it's Seinfeld,
21:40 I didn't hate it, I don't mind his pacing and his flow.
21:44 I like Jerry, but it's just like,
21:46 your fastball was in the '90s.
21:48 Don't throw stones at fucking Howard Stern.
21:52 Billionaire tries to bully girl with same name
21:55 into buying Instagram handle.
21:57 A girl who married into a billionaire family
21:59 named, Catherine, definitely gonna say that wrong,
22:01 Ass Plunge.
22:02 (laughing)
22:03 - Asplund.
22:03 - Asplund attempted to purchase Instagram handle
22:06 Catherine Ass Plunge from its owner,
22:08 the Catherine, @CatherineAssPlunge is now private.
22:12 - Ass Plunge.
22:13 - We're just gonna say Ass Plunge.
22:14 - Ass Plunge.
22:15 - We're gonna say Ass Plunge.
22:16 - Ass Plunge.
22:16 - We're gonna get some headlines, we're gonna say Ass Plunge.
22:18 Apologies to the Ass Plunge family or Ad Plunge family.
22:20 She does not have a profile picture
22:22 and has a total of seven posts.
22:23 The girl declined to sell,
22:26 saying that she likes to use her account
22:28 for private stories and Instagram
22:30 says selling accounts is illegal,
22:33 didn't even try to negotiate.
22:34 Billionaire girl proceeded to try to lose her shit,
22:37 threatened, Ass Plunge kicked her off,
22:40 get her kicked off Instagram.
22:42 Tried to claim Ass Plunge wasn't her real name,
22:44 asked for proof of identity, the whole thing.
22:46 So, who's crazier, the rich woman
22:50 or the not rich girl for selling the account?
22:52 - I'm assuming, did you like see the actual screenshots?
22:55 - I didn't see the screenshots.
22:56 - Are you aware of like, I saw them.
22:58 - Sorry, do we know how much money it was
23:02 that she offered her?
23:03 - Well, no, she never offered it.
23:04 - She never got to, shit, it's illegal.
23:05 - I think that's the crazy part
23:06 that she never at least was like,
23:07 you're a billionaire.
23:08 - What are we, well, I don't know if she's supposed,
23:11 the other girl, how is she supposed to know that?
23:13 So, that's the part where I give her a little,
23:15 - Well, I mean.
23:16 - How the fuck is she supposed to know
23:17 the girl's a billionaire?
23:18 But anyone that's saying like money,
23:21 or she didn't say like I'm married,
23:23 well, she just said married,
23:24 she didn't say married in the money,
23:25 she just said like my new name.
23:27 So, the marriage, name change.
23:29 - Right.
23:30 - Like, how is she supposed to know she has like,
23:32 the person has all this money?
23:34 But I think.
23:35 - Well, scout your opponents.
23:36 - Yeah.
23:36 - I'd be like.
23:37 - Scout who you're dealing with.
23:38 - I'd say, I would say, hey, like.
23:39 - But Google search.
23:40 - How much money are we talking?
23:41 I mean, a Google search is always just gonna say
23:43 how much money you have.
23:44 - It could, net worth, what the guy does.
23:47 He's the CEO of something.
23:48 - Like, a thousand followers.
23:50 So, she was pretty fine.
23:51 - I think it said Dr. Oz, like is a part of this family,
23:53 the Ass Plunge family.
23:55 - Yeah, the Ass Plunge family.
23:57 But the fact that she just was like right away
23:59 taking the high ground of like,
24:00 oh, selling my accounts illegal, like.
24:02 To find out how much you're dealing with,
24:05 like you didn't even know.
24:06 Who's to say she wouldn't say 50 grand, 100 grand.
24:09 - There's something about it that I kind of respect.
24:11 It's just funny that she just immediately was like,
24:13 no, we can get bad red scare, I'm not,
24:15 like I'm not, like she's gonna like.
24:16 - That's illegal.
24:17 - Like they're gonna like throw her in jail
24:18 and like throw away the key.
24:19 - Yeah, yeah.
24:19 - And like, she's gonna have an Instagram account.
24:20 - Yeah.
24:21 - But also there is, on the other end too,
24:22 there's something funny to me about,
24:24 just like a girl that's like,
24:26 came from this life that just gets everything she wants.
24:29 - Yep.
24:30 - And this girl's just like, fuck you, I can't be bought.
24:31 Like, you can't have this handle.
24:33 - Yeah.
24:34 - Also like, you have no.
24:35 - That's kind of funny that she has like.
24:36 - What did she have, seven posts?
24:38 - Right.
24:39 - Like you barely use Instagram.
24:41 - That's what makes it funny.
24:41 - Make the money.
24:42 - Like she doesn't even care.
24:43 - Like the rich lady is crazy, but the girl,
24:46 I'm on her side.
24:47 - And she also, I'm willing to pay you.
24:50 She also apparently changed her name like three times,
24:53 the girl who has the handle.
24:54 So like, she's changed her Instagram name multiple times.
24:56 - That makes it even funnier.
24:57 - Yeah.
24:58 - Like she's just a lunatic, which is hilarious.
25:00 - I love how this girl though, the non-rich girl,
25:03 is like, you can report me.
25:03 I just did and my fiance did too.
25:05 You're asking him to do something to get my account banned.
25:09 I doubt Instagram would take that lightly.
25:10 I love it.
25:11 Instagram's like it's the fucking Gestapo.
25:13 - So good.
25:14 - It's unbelievable.
25:15 - I would get rid of my account so fast if this was me.
25:17 Like I'd be like, yeah, absolutely.
25:18 Like I would, if a company came to me and was like,
25:21 hey, you're about to have a kid,
25:22 like if you name your kid after our brand,
25:24 we'll pay you a million dollars.
25:25 I would do that.
25:26 - Well, this is a fucking great line here.
25:29 So the rich lady goes, I'm asking you to change your username
25:32 because you're pretending to be someone you're not.
25:34 My name is Catherine.
25:35 - Yeah, yeah.
25:36 - And the rich girl goes, which is illegal.
25:38 You just became Catherine Assplunch like four seconds ago.
25:42 - Yeah.
25:42 - So like, who are you pretending to be?
25:44 I don't know.
25:45 - I just, also it is kind of funny.
25:49 They're fighting over the Assplunch name.
25:50 Like who knew the Assplunch had such a fucking-
25:52 - Good name.
25:53 - Everyone wants to be Assplunch.
25:53 - High demand.
25:54 Everybody wants to be an Assplunch.
25:56 It's crazy.
25:57 After show, playoff streams coming up.
25:59 We'll be here Friday night.
26:01 - Tomorrow night.
26:01 - Tomorrow night.

26:05 if it goes that way.
26:07 So Viv, you better step it up.
26:08 You want more streams.
26:09 - Pacers are eight and O in the playoffs at home.
26:12 - Okay.
26:14 - Is that a real stat?
26:15 I don't think it would be.
26:15 - No, that wouldn't be.
26:16 - 'Cause you only played one series.
26:17 - They're like eight and O in the last like,
26:19 I don't know.
26:20 They're really good.
26:21 - You've only played one series.
26:21 So I'm going to challenge you on that.
26:22 - Yeah, they're really good at home as of late.
26:24 - And they didn't have home court in that series.
26:26 - Yeah.
26:26 - Eight and O in the playoffs.
26:29 - I caught on to that.
26:30 Normally I'd just be like, whoa, wow, really?
26:32 I'd like, I'd reference it.
26:33 - No, I-
26:34 - You tried to set me up with a bad stat again.
26:35 - I think it's like-
26:36 - Only played three home games.
26:37 - Yeah, I think it was like down the stretch.
26:38 They were like, they're like eight and O.
26:39 They haven't lost a home game in a while.
26:40 - Yeah.
26:41 - So look, the Pacers, it's saying must win is cliche,
26:45 but this is a must.
26:45 Like you can't drop them at home.
26:47 It's not a series until the home team loses.
26:48 - I respect the Pacers' home court.
26:49 The fans will show out.
26:50 - I did have, I did have two quick blogs,
26:53 like your opinions on it.
26:53 I know I showed this to Vibs.
26:55 Ev, did you hear any of this audio from Joe Beningo?
26:58 - I did it.
26:59 - When he left this audio.
26:59 - I like saw the story.
27:00 - Fighting with his cat.
27:01 - I saw the story, but I didn't actually like see,
27:03 like I didn't watch the clip.
27:05 - It's unreal.
27:06 He's going, come on, come on, baby.
27:07 God damn it, he's fighting.
27:08 It's just an old man.
27:09 And then you would think you would edit it out.
27:11 - His wife?
27:12 - No, I think the wife then gets involved,
27:14 but he's yelling at his cat.
27:15 It's unreal.
27:16 And then the other one, it's long.
27:18 So like, but you just hear him complaining.
27:20 It's very funny.
27:21 But then the other one today was that New York's like
27:23 hottest, next hottest burger is being served
27:26 out of a gas station.
27:26 You know the gas station down on 8th?
27:29 - No.
27:30 - No.
27:30 - Yeah.
27:31 It's like one of the only gas stations below 14th.
27:34 It's called, what is it called?
27:35 Smackin' Burger?
27:36 - I do know what you're talking about.
27:37 - I mean, it's literally, it shows like Smackin' Burger,
27:39 and then it says like mobile 349 for gas.
27:42 - It's a chain, but I think 7th.
27:44 - Yeah, wait, you'll see it right here.
27:46 - 7th Street Burger's the best burger.
27:48 - That's very, uh.
27:48 - It is.
27:49 But like, look, it's a legit gas station.
27:50 - I do know this gas station, yeah.
27:51 - Crazy.
27:52 Now I said, do not think that I will shame this people
27:56 for eating here, because I like think hole in the wall
27:59 places or like joints, as I described them,
28:02 like the, like Cornibisho.
28:04 They haven't changed those tables in fuckin' 60 years.
28:06 - This is very, uh.
28:07 - And that's like part of the ordeal, you know what I mean?
28:08 That's what you like.
28:09 - It's very Southern of us.
28:10 - Yes, but I had a little bit of a concern here, the smell.
28:13 Gas, the smell is very prevalent.
28:15 - Oh, I.
28:16 - And it's a working gas station.
28:17 It's not just like they convert it to a gas station.
28:19 - Huff a little bit of gas, eat a burger,
28:21 that sounds like a fuckin' great night.
28:23 - And then I was looking.
28:24 - There's that much gas just flowin' around
28:25 in the New York City area.
28:26 - Yeah, makes sense.
28:27 And then I looked at the staff.
28:28 Like I know they separate the staff.
28:30 They have a gas station staff and they have a burger staff.
28:32 But who's to say that the guy doesn't go pump it
28:33 and then he gets a little bit of gas on his food,
28:35 he's handling your meat, pause.
28:37 Now you got gas in your food, you're ingesting it.
28:39 I don't know, there's a little bit of concern.
28:40 But if it comes down to it, would you try it or would you not?
28:44 I am trying it.
28:45 - Absolutely, yeah. - Absolutely, yeah.
28:46 - I'm trying it.
28:47 - When I was in high school, I was dating this girl
28:49 and we went to, we were gonna go try this new pizza place
28:52 with her, my family.
28:54 We show up, it's attached to a gas station.
28:56 Like it's in a gas station.
28:57 My family was like, no, we're not eating here.
28:59 And I was like, that's the most pretentious thing ever.
29:01 Like, why not?
29:02 What makes it bad?
29:03 Like I eat food from a gas station.
29:06 I just had a gas station hot dog yesterday.
29:09 Like it's not bad.
29:11 In the stigma that gas stations are bad.
29:13 I'd eat sushi from a gas station, I don't care.
29:16 - Yeah.
29:16 - Best fried chicken I ever had was gas station.
29:18 - Gas station fried chicken, two thumbs up.
29:20 - Down South, like you'll get your best food there.
29:22 You'll get a nice hot plate at a gas station.
29:24 - Yeah, I mean, they have sheets.
29:25 They like, when I was driving, taking the bus to Chicago,
29:28 we stopped at a sheets, people getting sandwiches.
29:30 That is a gas station.
29:31 - Sheets, wow.
29:32 - Now it's different because it's inside.
29:32 - But wow wow, this is more like, we're talking the truth.
29:35 These are like mom and pop type operations.
29:37 We're not talking chains.
29:38 Like wow wow, I think is great, but it's different down there.
29:41 - But all right, that's the rundown.
