| 0:00.0 | You think about the second chance points he creates, and then he'll break your will. |
| 0:05.2 | And I think what should not be forgotten in what he did last night with 10 is that the Spurs are the best defensive rebounding team in the league. |
| 0:13.9 | So it's not like he did it against a junior high team. |
| 0:18.8 | He did it against the Spurs. |
| 0:20.6 | Right. He did it against the Spurs. Right. |
| 0:21.1 | He did it against the best of the best in that area. |
| 0:23.6 | So, look, it's not hyperbole to talk about the incredible value Mitchell Robinson has. |
| 0:30.0 | But our last caller said, I don't mind sitting him in regular season games to make sure he's ready for the postseason. |
| 0:37.0 | Last night wasn't even a regular season game. |
| 0:39.0 | Which not as important as a regular season game. |
| 0:41.1 | It wasn't. |
| 0:42.1 | That was the one negative that I think the league needs to at least figure out. |
| 0:46.1 | They've got something with this tournament to a degree. |
| 0:48.4 | But they got to figure out two things. |
| 0:50.4 | They got to figure out how they make that last game matter. |
| 1:00.7 | And they got to figure out putting it into a place where people are going to care, because it did not vibe in Las Vegas. |
| 1:06.8 | And reports came out last night and this morning that they did not sell out, and they were giving away free seats. |
| 1:09.8 | Seats fillers in Las Vegas. |
| 1:28.6 | Now, that doesn't mean the world wasn't interested, because I think the TV rating will be nice. Yeah. But I think in Las Vegas, nobody cared. Well, once you get to Las Vegas, even if you went for the tournament and you land in Las Vegas, is that where you're thinking you're going? But even if you are going, think about the way it was set up. It was a Saturday and a Tuesday. So I ask anyone out there, any diehard Nick fan who would have put together maybe some kind of trip, a Sunday to a Tuesday? Well, this is the... It doesn't exactly, doesn't work very well. This is the other issue, though. They did that to avoid the NFL, which is smart. How about just avoid the NFL season to begin with? Play it in the immediacy of the Super Bowl after. That's what I would do, too. When I first heard the idea of a mid-season tournament, I thought mid-season meant middle of the season. But obviously, they do it very early in the season. I'm just going to say, how about playing it where you have an Eastern Conference team and a Western conference team every year? I'm serious. And the winner gets home court advantage in the NBA finals. |
| 2:01.0 | Oh, so like the baseball all-star game back in the day. |
| 2:03.1 | It just came to me because then you get the whole league caring about it. I think there's a lot of different variations of making this last game matter besides debating amongst fans if there should be a banner or not. Let's go to Kendrick and Suffern. What's up, Kendrick? Gentlemen, yeah, no, as a coalition member here, Evan, I had to call in today and congratulate the |
