I put the blame at the feet of Mike Brown, the coach, because if Jalen Duran is not playing, who should be getting the ball? Well, Carl Anthony Towns. What is the coach doing? Is the coach just standing there, you know, waving high to his friend who's coaching the other team and going to shake his hands? I'm going to have a lot of fun and a lot of laughs after the game is over. After your team just got its ass kicked on its home field on its

0:21.6

home court are you kidding me i mean so uh like the coach has got to get a proverbial head out of ass

0:27.8

and say look man they're missing their guy that is just beating a crap out of our guy the last two

0:33.0

times we played them and we got to get him the ball we got to get him in the game we got to get

0:36.9

him moving and you know i don't know what cal Anthony Towns is doing. He should be called for the basketball. I thought last night was about as embarrassing a loss as they've had in a long time because... Oh, I mean, that Indiana Pacers lost. Well, I mean, that, yeah, but at least the game was tight and everything else like this. This was the ass kicking and the third time this year that they got their ass kicked by Detroit. So, and this was coming back off of the NBA All-Star break. You got your two new guys on your team. They're supposed to be tougher. And you know what? It was anything but that. It was, I mean, honestly, if I were at that game game last night i would have been booing my ass off

1:12.0

because there are a lot of guys make a lot of money and there's a new coach on that sideline

1:16.4

it's supposed to be figuring this whole thing out and if if you're if you're going to get

1:21.4

embarrassed at home in front of your home fans by this team that's already kicked your ass twice

1:27.1

and is doing so, as you said,

1:29.0

without Isaiah Stewart or Jalen Duran, then there's an issue. There is a major issue. And I'm sorry,

1:35.6

you can do as many podcasts as you want. You could have as much, you know, personality as you want.

1:40.4

You could love each other as much as you want. The performance speaks for itself.

1:45.7

And last night, that, if I'm Mike Brown, I have a hard time going to sleep because, you know,

1:51.5

your ass was brought here so you could actually take this team to the next level.

1:56.6

Now, what is happening is that you're getting stepped on by a team that is at the next level right now,

2:03.0

especially without two of their better players.

2:05.4

You came into this season as a prohibitive favorite to go to the NBA finals out of the Eastern Conference.

2:11.2

As you sit here now, you are a legitimate underdog to the Detroit Pistons.

2:15.1

It's their Eastern Conference.

2:16.8

And it's not even close. This is their Eastern Conference, and the Knicks are going to have to prove that they can actually beat this team to earn the respect of that team. I mean, I don't even, I mean, they, the Pistons play like they don't even respect them. And, you know, after the Indiana game, I went on and on about the Carl Anthony Towns thing that you're talking about and getting them the ball and these things.

2:37.7

And I agree with everything you're saying because it happened again last night.

2:40.5

But the way that he was just abused defensively last night was the most alarming thing.
