"Of Rhode Island. I broadcast that game for the student radio station, sitting on the stage behind a basket. Wow. And they beat us, and he wasn't the reason they beat us. Bill butler was, but he played well, but he was bob Lanier. Two years later, there were 23 and two that year, by the way. Two years later, they are in the final four. And he's by far the biggest reason. But they enter it without him. He was injured in a freak accident at the waning seconds of the regional final game against Villanova where he kicking and throwing over his butt. Chris Ford, ironically, a future teammate got rolled up into him and he tore his MCL. He was not available for the final four. They put up a heroic battle against Jacksonville with nobody over 6 5 in a lineup and they lost a competitive game, but obviously, you know, they would have no chance. I among many believe they could have beaten UCLA that year that was the steep Patterson center year that in between year between and Walton and they were better than Jacksonville with him. He's a better player than Gilmore, period. Get that in your head, folks. And anyway, so that's why I care. But I'm in here, by the way, in about a full draft 1970, a draft that included Pete maravich, Rudy tomjanovich, Dave cowens, and, oh, and then the second round, Calvin Murphy and tiny Archibald. In the second round, okay? He was the number one pick in the draft. Now, bob linear was about the full guys in the 70s. Think about it. Kareem was in his prime counts, went up and went two rings. Nate Thurman, Welles Reed, west sunset. And then in the other league, Daniel Daniels, artist Gilmore, later on, Bill Walton, Moses Malone. This is the center is the plane in the 70s folks. We all fashioned as Al Maguire would say aircraft carrier centers..

"Four years of that discipline basketball aggressive type plate, especially on the defensive end, it prepared me very well for the NBA. You know, if you had Marvin del, I believe Ron burrough on that team and yourself and you guys took that program to new heights and said, you know, I'm not big on pictures of individuals, but probably my two most iconic pictures that I always enjoy seeing. And I got to hear somewhere in my man cave, but I can't find it right now. If George gervin, iceman, sitting on a block of chair on ice, your picture on the front of sports illustrator would have two hands on through going like that. I have labeled that show them the funk, because it has underarms and all that matter, but that was made by the armor. But a great great thing. Your thoughts on that man. Yeah. Well, I don't have a picture of that. I don't have a photograph. I can't locate. Wow. I find it a lot. And I'm sure if I dug deep enough, I would find it, but I have signs so many. And what really it brings back memories of the fact that the program started a certain way and I never forget we played UCLA at the pit. New selling the pit. I know I'm talking about boy. And that altitude is just enough altitude there isn't it cool. Yeah. Jessica is definitely not the girl you all. Yeah. And you see LA they were this powerhouse team was not like the old UCLA team, so it's still a good thing to keep it down the waves on the team David Greenwood, Roy Hamilton. And we were just these country guards from Arkansas and we played in the pit. We advanced there. We were and we were just we beat them. We were all them like, why don't I say the other words? I went for everyone to like shit on stage from the oldest tip. And we ended up winning that game and went through the final four that year. So Arkansas, those were some great years. I don't think you ever recreate college. Even though I enjoy playing in the NBA, you can always at least I can always say the model of memorable games are still in college. It's not really the MBA, because you play so many games in the NBA, but colleges, you have a little small window in college basketball. Hey, did you listen to this show time with coop? We have sending my grief in the house. Sending this point of the stage. I have something I call poops lightning round. I'm going to give you 5 names, and you tell me as much as little about the names, okay? Okay. This one, Terry Cummings. Aggressive player Hall of Fame, skill set, had he been healthy and played consistently for maybe one team, for ten to 12 years. Hall of Famer, no doubt, tough kid, tough player, love playing with them. You've mentioned already coach Eddie Sutton the late Annie Sutton. Yeah, coach said, very disciplined. He loved his players. He had high expectations for us, and he if you play for coach, you were ready if he had the skill to play in the NBA. He prepared players to play that next level. Now, I play for Pat Riley, my whole year of a couple of other coaches. The pat ride with my main coach, I would love to have played for Don Nelson. He was fun. He was very innovative. He wasn't as flighty as people think. He was a student of the game, young understood the game of basketball. And the understood matchups. And he worked coop. He worked at his highest paid rally work. You all Betty broke in my career. We worked extremely hard and remember back then you could have two practices. And they could be full practices. You had no limits. And then you could have a meeting in between. So we were practiced really hard, have this meeting about the plays and all this different. You know, that might be sitting in there like, I'm tired. Just don't be the basketball. This is who. And then do it again. Practice again. So I can say quick right off the bad memories, the fact Riley used to do that. Practice meeting practice film after a soap. We didn't have the p.m. afterwards. So you all were no, we didn't have that Apple. Kobe Bryant. Coast to coast with the basketball and they plays. It was something to behold and the thing I love about LeBron James that people were look, he is extremely intelligent ball player. But we have intelligent players that didn't share the knowledge with their teammates. He shares knowledge when you call a player set. He knew what play you were in. If that teammate was not in the right position, he said, hey, I need you to hear thereby run this play. He was he was probably the best I have ever seen in the history of the game of basketball that I've seen. But not only understood the game, but also shared that knowledge with his players on the basketball court. That's a great insight that I think people have a tendency to forget about those little aspects, nuances about his game is letting his teammates know. And, you know, you play for some great ones. That was one of Magic Johnson's biggest strengths is about inclusive for the whole team. Everybody been on the same page because it takes teams together everyone achieves more to win basketball games and LeBron definitely definitely has that, okay. Fit was some of your favorite teammates. And give us a little bit of insight on some of them. Well, junior bridgeman, and Harvey catches, we came in, well, they kind of mentor me when I was in Milwaukee Bucks and we did everything together in the road. Good and bad. Just kidding. Also. Hopefully if I bob a study in church and knows that. They really kept me from maybe strain more than I would have. Because they were just all about business being professionals playing bucker. They were pros. They were just professionals. I love playing with bob Lanier because bob was bob was a rebel player at a high had a very high skill level. People in a lot of times feel the love that the basketball player. And you always felt you know how it is and so I could get you open. Don't mind he could get you open. Whatever was guarding you, they would no longer be on you when bob said a pig. Man, I caught some of them hips. I caught 7 hips trying to get around him guarding you. Elbows, whatever it took. To do that, Marcus Johnson was such a skill player. I enjoy playing with Marcus because Marcus was a he wasn't a complimentary player, but he could compliment you. He wasn't trying to try to outshine you because he was good enough to shine out on his own. And he also just fundamentally again fundamentally player his father mills were so good. He was a winner. I just like most of my teammates were winners. I really liked that Paul Presley was one of my great teammates because he could pass the basketball was very smart. He played defense and he didn't care who he got the credit. He just wanted to win ball games. I have some tremendous teammates, ma'am. I have. Thanks for a long time. Dave Meyers. The late day Myers. Yeah. They look good. They were one of my favorite teammates because he did all the dirty work. I watched him every before every practice and after every practice read religiously do his exercises worse back so he could be healthy to play the next ball game..

"Teams came back during the bob Lanier era, but this is probably going to be the best Bond adventure team not from the greater 1970 71 72 era. Like big time stuff, that's the best. That's the best mid major team this season because saint bonaventure is a mid major program. If you've ever been there, I know how it operates like it just is Mark Schmidt's a magician there. A couple other ones if you're looking for a small schools that you should be aware of. Well, one more surprise in my top 25 because it's a team that I think you probably didn't even consider. Now, when you do your top 25 and one, you basically have a shifting group of what like 33 34 teams under consideration? Well, I mean, I start from opening night and then it dwindles. It typically dwindles over. If you're ranked 26th on the night of the title game, there's a good chance you ain't gonna survive it 'cause teams are going to add pieces, big pieces that push them into the rankings and then knocks you out. Unless you're somebody who also acts. Like if you are in the Clubhouse at 26 on the night of the title game, you ain't gonna make it. So I do end up like there were some teams that have been I've had ranked at various points in the off season. They got bumped out by I don't know Memphis jumping in. And other schools jumping. I think Oregon jumped in at some point when it did something Illinois jumped in when it got Kofi back. So USC was ranked at one I had them at one point that they're not in there now. Syracuse, I know I had in there at one point. They're not in there now. So it ends up being about, yeah, 30 to 32, 33 teams that at some point were probably in there. And I still keep the rosters in a file. So I can grab them if I ever need them. Okay, so I think the one team I have in my top 25 that's not in your bucket is Xavier. Would that be accurate? I never considered Xavier. That is true, but I am not ignorant to some of the preseason metrics. Like they are, I believe top 20 at torvill. Are they really? Okay. That's frustrating. But okay. Only because I thought I was maybe sneaking in the back door with X because at the end of it, I started doing this..

"Both those teams obviously to make the tournament Paolo pantera should be just phenomenal this season. And so because of that, I had to put duke top 15, because I think with him there, he's a potential national player of the year at the end of the season. I know they were down last season, but they have too much back that I couldn't talk myself out of. That's by the way where I had them about a year ago, and they wound up, you'll recall, Kentucky and duke were seen as preseason top ten teams. I faded that. No one could have seen what was coming. They wound up not even making the tournament. I got Tennessee 16. I gave you a shout out by the way in the capsule of Tennessee. I said, here's the last line of it. I said, if Chandler's a revelation, Kennedy Chandler who I think might be a top three freshman in the country, by the way, my little homie from behind Paulo and Chet. I think Kennedy hand might be number three. When we get to the end of it, if he's a revelation and focusing can be as good this season as some thought he would be last season, where are you at Gary Parrish? And yeah, UT can win the SEC. I think your folk or something is going to wind up being true. Not that he wasn't good last year, but last year we were thinking like, could he? He was not good last year. You know what the year ago? He was not. He was not the player that he was not the player he was and those last few weeks of the previous season. He was just it never clicked for him for whatever reason. Bonnie's fans, 19. Where do you got bonaventure? Yeah. Not top 25 and one, do you? Well, of course I did. I have seen bottom major 25th. Okay. 19. Every time back. Every time I update the top 25 and one, what would you text me? Every single time. He's so fired up. You should be fired up. The best Bon adventure teams came back during the bob Lanier era, but this is probably going to be the best Bond adventure team not from the greater 1970 71 72 era.

"And and the at the same time when he brings us home. We have the parable unmerciful servant that jesus makes it very clear that if we're going to enter the kingdom of god if we're going to not only receive his forgiveness but retain his forgiveness that he offers it to us as long as we're going to live in his forgiveness. We have to be not dead ends of forgiveness. We have to be conduits forgiveness that if we let god's forgiveness end with us and we don't extend it to the people around us then we don't get forgiven. In fact we pray this. Every time we prayed lord spur the our father forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And if i'm not willing to forgive those who have hurt me the most then. I can't be forgiven by the father. And even in the parable here. Jesus makes it very clear that the servant i seven owes ten thousand talents. I remember doing the math on that one point then. Thousand talents was something it was. It was more than any normal worker. Could pay in something. Like i don. I don't exaggerate. I should do the math again. Thirty four lifetimes it was obscene in even him saying. Hey gimme time. And i'll payback. What i owe you the the master would say. That's not possible. You could never do that. And then his fellow servant owes him. What was this fraction of the amount and he says the scripture says he owes one hundred which is only a hundred days wages hundred wages versus thirty four lifetimes of wages and realize that in comparison to a we have sinned against the lord. Those of sin against us A pales in comparison. No i know there are people who are listening or part of this community who have been hurt in incredibly grievous ways like in ways that That it would for normal human being would be impossible to forgive. I know there are people listening right now. Part of this. Bob lanier community that you would say what has been done to me is impossible to forgive. And that's what we jump ahead to where jesus says to the apostles when they look and say but jesus when jesus says it's impossible for richmond under heaven how difficult it will be. He says it's impossible for men but nothing will be impossible for god that's true when it comes to riches and heaven. It's also true when it comes to forgiveness. And if you find yourself in i find myself in a place of resentment and bitterness and unforgiveness i realize i on my own. Can't forgive so god you need to help me forgive There are so many more stories that we could go through but I think we'll just conclude with this one the parable of the laborers in the vineyard and the the end of it. Of course you know everyone gets paid the same. Even the person worked one hour versus the those who worked twelve hours. And jesus has the the the owner of the vineyard say. Are you envious. Because i'm generous. And i think sometimes we are. I think sometimes we are envious that got his generous. Especially if you've been follower of christ for a long time and you've really worked really hard to follow after him need may be ben that that later on the parable of the two sons the you are the son who said i will go and then you went or maybe you said it won't go but you still went anyways and you look at the others and think man these people who have wasted their lives and they're coming to the lord at the end and They all these blessings. And god's doing all these incredible things through them and here i been grinding away for my lifetime..

Welcome to the pull a appreciate you. Showing up c. J. always always good to be back here. I feel like a veteran of the pod. So i'm honored. You have me back again. Now it's a privilege and honor to welcome you especially considering what's happened the last few weeks and what. You've kinda gone through having to cover the finals to fly at home and still sign up to my podcast. I truly do appreciate it. I know time is precious. It's important that we spend time with their families and in this line of work we're often gone and it's hard to be president home so i'll try to get you back to your family as soon as possible. The home i got. I got all the time in the world for you know that so. Let's discuss the finals. Obviously you were there. Starting with the intensity the crowd how much it meant to them Being able to watch on tv you get a a great understanding of how passionate those fans are. Obviously the arena. Hold seventeen thousand. It's been fifty years almost fifty years since they've won nba finals and see sixty sixty five thousand people outside the arena screaming. What was the atmosphere like. What was the situation like compared to other finals. You've been to or been a part of yes because of what was outside and we did our nba countdown show kind of on a balcony overlooking that they call the deer district in twenty. Five thousand fans Earlier in the series and then it became they said sixty sixty five thousand opened it up opened up more space on both of it. It was unlike anything i've ever seen. Your toronto had the toronto had that outside the arena when they were winning when they won their championship. I think maybe you're to prior jurassic park right and so that was comparable. This was unbelievable. It felt like a college football environment like outdoors just The mass of people was incredible. I mean three times the amount outside and It was a hungry city city that was love that franchise has been really loyal loyal through a lot of lean lanier's fifty years obviously between titles. And you know they've had good teams in milwaukee through the years like you remember the eighties with you. Know sidney moncrieff and bob lanier terry. Cummings like they were a perennial playoff team that get to the second round. Usually maybe lose the boston philly when those teams richest better but this is just. There's this great law. Affair they are and phoenix was to phoenix. Obviously as they haven't milwaukee's been very good now for several years the honestly no way Phoenix obviously had been terrible For a number of years bought ideal really passionate fan base and there's great nba history in phoenix than had. Meanwhile they'd never championship they organization really until the last several years. Seventy nine years. Whatever it's been Where they've really fallen off. And all of a sudden devon booker. Chris paul monty williams change that and so it was really chew fan. Bases that hadn't experienced winning to this level hadn't been in the finals in a very long time and so Really i thought both cities it was. It was really remarkable. I think you feel it even more because we've been without fans for so long and we started the season we ended. The season with autumn started the season without him and it was pretty amazing to look around and we had adam silver on our show on countdown before game a four. I think and we were just talking about that about the fact that we went from fans to what was just a pretty rockets rockets environment. I definitely agree with you. I just wanted to get your perspective because you were there on the ground being able to watch. I got friends who obviously intended to gain Ex teammate pat who in now champion well-timed. I'm happy for him. Because i understand. The process is taken for him to get there being a baseball player. Being a rotation god second round pick gets traded and finds the initial championship caliber team where he's making impact place pet connotation i. I really didn't get a chance to talk about it on air. But i was talking about it. I've ever sitting there with jalen. Rose a few times I remember when he came in the league in portland with you guys. It came in the second round great athlete. I think you're the one who told me once. Or maybe david banner parole about like greg golfer could throw football sixty or seventy really throw a football and obviously we know a a big prospect in baseball and i kind of always thought maybe pat would play a year or two and maybe he'd go back to baseball and he is carved out an incredible. Nba career. He was a valuable piece for that team. And he was for you guys in portland too. And i think in milwaukee he really like you said you really. He had some big shots in that series. Create rebound remakes. Just makes winning. Plays and i know you. I know you enjoyed playing with them. And and but i thought he was to me. Let the real key role guys to help. Milwaukee get back in the series when they got down early. The i definitely agree. I i had to shut him out guy really happy for him and you talked about it. They can baby is gonna play a year. Maybe he's gonna play two years now. He's carved out quite a career in the nba. We'll obviously get an extension somewhere. Probably ima walkie. You had eight rebounds. Didn't score but made a lot of winning plays throughout the game and at what point was the leading three point field goals made for the bucks during the finals ryan. So shout out to him. But we'd be remiss if we didn't talk about some the star players obviously starting with What he was able to accomplish Not only throughout the season but coming back from that injury in on five or six days injury we thought was going to in this season and maybe put next season in jeopardy. Did you expect him to do he did i i can answer i i expect him the dominate but he took dominate into a whole new level of where he made fifty look easy. Absolutely especially coming off the injury you said. Cj he said it he thought his not only his season was over. He might be out for a year. They worried that he had a really injured that need to go from where he was when he went down and they win the last couple of games without him and get by atlanta to all of a sudden he's warm up game warning plays really well in game one and then just fully dominates the series from game two on loss game too. He played incredibly. Then the rest of the series forget it. he was That was an all time. Nba finals performances. And i mean it's funny. Cj you think back to just late in the season latte like he wins back to back. Mvp's people still ask. Can you really build a championship team around. You can go to at the end of games..

Lopez was known as being a masher in the low post as opposed to the three point flow spacer that has become in recent. He looked like two thousand like two shack. The box allies today For the first time in a while Especially at the first time since game three that they are enormous and far bigger than their opponents and proceeded to beat them into the ground like a varsity varsity team playing junior varsity. Yes so the bucks just got i mean without jaanus. Obviously they needed guys step up. They just got incredible all around game. I mean drew. Holiday played terrific especially defensively bobby portis who is becoming a a hero or is it. He's the already a hero in milwaukee They love him because he plays hard But you know he's discount today he also shot eight thousand percent open threes this year for the box and certainly has endeared himself to the fans for that reason to we only took twenty shots in this game tonight. I can't imagine they ever envisioned him taking twenty shots when they signed him less summer or public health. Doing it though. Bobby definitely envisioned it. Sorry bobby portis completely dominated. John collins like you want some this game up in a nutshell. Forget brook lopez and everything else. I mean john collins ended up with nineteen and eight. It was pretty invisible and most of it was in garbage time. I mean bobby. Portis completely outplayed him. That's the that sums up this game from soup to nuts i mean. Just listen to these numbers bobby. Portis twenty two points. Eight rebounds three assists about three assists steals all right brooke lopez thirty three points on fourteen of eighteen shooting seven rebounds. Chris middleton twenty six points. Thirteen rebounds eight assists jrue holiday. Twenty five points. Thirteen assists six rebounds But that's just all just awesome basketball and you know the bucks you mentioned about being on the paint. They shot twenty four twenty eight in the paint painting game to which is good. As i've ever seen a playoff game. They were thirty three of fifty in the paint in this game without jaanus not a great night for the frequent capello's case as a top five center in italy. No yeah you'll only played twenty minutes. And it he got he got railroad in this game. I mean look the bucks had forty four points in the paint in game four when they came out and insanely shot fourteenth three pointers and 21-shot shot attempts in the first quarter and again forgot the fact that they are enormous and should be just pummeled in reference only started. Don't even get me started the steam. The steam never does the things that it should. It's just a it's a constantly's is an all. I have to assume that. Mike good holzer is. This is not deep level analysis. Shoot attack the rim and by the way it's like. The hawks played a tight to one to zone. You know what i mean. I don't think they're doing anything to dissuade pain attacks when they're trying to defend but I mean look the the box got over. Sixty points in the paint are averaged over sixty points in the paint in games one two and three. They had forty four points in the paint in game. Four the come out tonight. They had twenty eight points in the paint in the first quarter. Wild twenty boys. The honest sweats janas watching on the bench and they had forty four points in the paint in the first half the same number. They had all of game for so yes. I think the box very clearly remembered that they are huge and they have a center. Who used to be a guy who averaged twenty points a game and shot incredibly efficiently all within five feet of the rim. And they said all right. We're going to smash these guys into the goal and they did that over and over and over again and while the hawks back in the game because the box do their usual thing where they messed around and kept it more interesting than they should have. Ultimately that size advantage was too much and whether trae on comes back and game six or not if they don't fix that in game six. The series is going to end on. Saturday may not have to fix it because it may they may not shoot pay in the paintings in game six well they. I mean brook lopez brook lopez was also walking to the rim for dunks. I mean they were giving up just ridiculously easy shots. I mean the bucks are bigger than them but some of this was also just. The hawks were just completely demolished in the first quarter. It is crazy how you see games at this level because the bucks came out in game four days i mean look sometimes you miss shots but it is amazing to watch. It's not just this series happens foot happening for almost twenty years. I've covered the nba. It's wild how often in playoff games team start flat in the free in the first quarter of game for the hawks got out to attend to run and led the game within the first three minutes..

"I'm looking forward to this. Rick mahorn has all the stories. Rick mahorn has been enjoyable to listen to across many years here and so he joins us now and i don't even know where to start. You are an original bad boy. Who does rick mahorn and thank you for joining us. Who does rick mahorn regard as a bad boy. Somebody who would reach the level of bad boy that rick mahorn has been do. Do you want it in the now or do you want an s. Because i learned from some of the best. I think the past is better. Because i've what i've learned over the years is the guys from the past. Don't regard the guys from today as quite as hard and tough because you guys played in a totally different time like you must look at the nba now and just laugh at the idea of that. Physical play is not exactly physical. Play the way it was when you were playing physically. Well i'm not going to be you know guide. It'd be screaming old man and the yards. Get off my lawn. But some of the stuff i see but these playoffs have been exciting. Because the physicality is their you plan a team seven straight times or you know if you lucky i even though he seen Phoenix suns take care of their business but when they played The the clippers of the day. I was like okay. This is the physicality the same with atlanta In milwaukee series. So i mean. It's fun but i'm gonna tell you something. We wanna find some physicality from small school. You wait till the big three starts to summer. You didn't answer my question though you did promote. Come close to answering. My question may answer your question from the past. It was i learned from guys like west on sell You know artists gilmore. When these were the dinosaurs this was the physical play inside. game was all about. Let's get the physicality gone if you didn't you know If you weren't scoring in pain in your shooting jumpers those kinda like you'll saw you don't wanna come in and take that pain but you know today's nba. The physicality starts to come in as the playoffs star. But you know when you look at it. david stern and out an adam. Silver you know. They changed a lot of the rules. Because you know a lot of the three pointers which we'd never had to shoot back then but also danielle scott realize that the aba used to shoot. Three's way back in the day and now the sudden is prevalent. It wasn't good basketball from the nba standards. But when aba did it. That was the competition that they had to knock them down. But so the physicality now man is sometimes i look at a one guy in particular pat beverley who was kinda like a hound dog. I i love the the the nature that he has and but you know some of it may be dirty people call dirty play but hey we played pick up games all the time. Rick mahorn is joining the show on behalf of the upcoming big three season. Charles oakley do you have a great charles ugly story for us. You know oakley came after an and i'm i'm i'm proud. That he wrote a book he came after. I left college. We both played into seattle. Aa historically black colleges and you know you get kinda kinda edge coming into the nba to try to prove yourself ally. Ben wallace my sued. Like i said myself you get an air you get this chip on your show. The oakland was a very physical brady. Do we have any any run-ins yes we did. That's carta lamb basketball effect. I talked to another day which is pretty funny. Because you know we leave all this stuff on the court. A lot of guys. Don't leave basketball. You know the physicality on the court. They hold a grudge after way after. And i'm sitting there going like do we've been. This is a foundation that we that we are all a fabric of so oakley. And i i mean knows nothing you know just physical looking at grilling but it was one incident. I could tell you when. I hit michael jordan back in. I think it was in nineteen eighty eight eighty nine and i kind of wiped out their whole bench because they were. They were mad that i hit oak. Hit michael and outlay michael's part of his game to them. You know. i'm gonna touch him up. Buffalo china a little bit next thing and i'd get ejected. But here's the kicker the they were given out these all star tat things that you put on your desk and i got hit with about twelve of them. I mean there was slinging them from the rafters of Of the chicago stadium so but it was fun. It was fun it was intense. And you know he's always been a competitor and i'm looking forward to reading this book. Was there a guy in the nba. That rick mahorn was scared of yes name was westland. Sell bless his soul. That was my dad. He taught me so much about the nba. The mentorship that he gave me. And basically i kind of emory immolated. His game is number. Forty one dollars forty four. All i know is that i got beat up every single day. I swear. I thought i thought you know. This can't be inundated with my arms hurting my body hurting. Because what i was like a cinderblock and you go shoot only guided the last guy. That was the mvp rookie of the year in an nba. And i'm going against him lay. Oh hell not as long knife but after that he told me who was tough and who saw when you say run ins used the phrase running. Do you have a most memorable run in. I mean there's so many of them shoes kind of started mess just to just to really get going but it was just more my physical play my run ins. I didn't really. I mean a lot of the guys that i had to play against like maurice lucas and then you go against a bob lanier now so terrified. That apps are i was terrified. And i'm still terrified of bob lanier.

Seven chose dallas fort worth to chose san antone and one chose houston. Let me tell you what's going on here. I didn't think they were going to drill down. And i was gonna say this even without having the data. Because i know it to be true when you're in california in you're looking to get out of california and texas is the kind of place that you wanna flee to houston's not the place you flee any longer a sylvester turner houston in lena. Hidalgo county is not as attractive a relocation target. What made houston a special place for the relocations that happened in the seventies was a very pro business law and order mentality a law and order district attorney a law and order sheriff a law and order police department. Well that just wasn't nice. We didn't like that. We liked the kinder gentler catch and release criminal policy where our murder rate is through the roof and the mayor didn't even know it. S what we like. We like not to confront the criminals and occasionally when we stumble upon them in their stabbing somebody to death or putting one more round in when we do catch them we like to bring him down to the courthouse and then immediately set him free. You know that feeling when you catch a big fish but you don't go ahead. Yeah or you nurture a wild animal back to life and once they get big and strong enough you let them fly. Go run and kill running. Kill do what you do. Naturally we shan't keep you in captivity your creature of the wild spread your wings go you therefore and kill and kill again because it is what you do and you do so well you are committed to your craft committed to your craft of crime. Go flea superior. Don't wanna come to houston because it's become detroit or chicago or atlanta. dc or baltimore. They fled los angeles. They don't want wanna relocate here. Those days are over just as many of you have fled the city and gone out to republic grand range. Tom ball magnolia rosenberg richmond. The woodland's league city texas city galveston baytown or beyond. Barbara's hill crosby. You know what you're fleeing you fleeing bad policies and bad people. That's not a racial statement. It's a reality. you're fleeing bad. Policies and bad people bad people elect bad policies made by people elected by bad people and as more people flee. There's nobody left to fix the problem. And you hollow out the core of a formerly great major city. It makes me sad to say that's what happened but make no mistake. That's what's happening. That's what's happened and once you get this far down. You can't return. When bob lanier brought the city back in nineteen ninety-one when he beat sylvester turner for mayor.

In addition, he will be banned from all events that the Wells Fargo center indefinitely. This is the fan that threw popcorn on Russell Westbrook. We apologize to Russell Westbrook and the Washington Wizards for being subjected to this type of unacceptable and disparate, disrespectful behavior. There's no place for it in our sport or arena. We'll get to more phone calls coming up. We bring in Dominique Wilkins, the Hall of Famer, the Hawks vice president of basketball and 26 close to 27,000 points. When it was all said, and done, he's broadcasting the Hawks playoff games for a Valley sports. And he joins us now. Nique. Good morning. How you feeling? Good. How you doing? I'm doing okay. Were you ever told how your parents came up with Dominique as your name? Yeah, Actually, my dad was in the military. You was in the army. But 26 years But anyway, I was born in so going France right outside of Paris, and we had the 80 nanny. Who name and basically she said to my mom looking little dominate, she said. That's not his name. She said. Well, it should be. And Mom said Okay, Okay, change his name to little dominate. Really? But actually, Dominic is my middle name. My first name is she got shot coming in. Well, so you certainly have the French influence there. Yeah, I do and can't speak a lick of it. But I was wondering if we came up with a nine ft Rim and had you and Jordan do it done contest right now. It would be the greatest nine FT dunk contest ever because we don't have to jump is high, more so that would be fun, actually, but you know, I talked to Dr J. About dunking. He said that he can still dunk, he said. It's It's not going up. It's coming down that hurts so much. You know, I say that all the time. You know it is not going up. That hurts coming down. This was going to kill you, You know, But you know, I can still dunk as well and right age 61, But you know, you could have some aches and pains later on, though. Did you ever feel sorry for when you dunked on somebody? Not a house. That was the most exhilarating feeling that you could ever have. Especially when you do it. You don't want big guys. Big guys with it seemed like to get you charged up after you make a great play like that. Give me the guy you dunked on and you just said, man, That is so good. Well, you folks quite a few, but I would say guys like Like doing guys like Bob Lanier, who didn't speak to me for nine years after that, Uh, you know, Robert Parish and guys like that. I just really got me off on that dump from bigger guys. You junk John Bird, didn't it a few times. A few times a few times, you know? He's getting a job. Well, you can tell when guys go up to block a dunk or contestant and then they start to go up and they realize I'm starting to come down and you're still going up. This is young and, well, you've seen those situations many times. You know where you got the great high flyers and you've got the challenge When you get there, you let Oh, I'm in trouble. You know, When you got the great high flyers man, they have the ability to hang in there a little bit longer than others. Just a beautiful thing to watch. We brought up your brother the other day when he was labeled the Jordan stopper. And I felt bad for your brother. Because you knew that was gonna make Michael when you know you're the Jordan stopper, huh? You know what I call my brother when he said that? And I said, so. I said, What do you doing? You don't want to awaken a sleeping giant. Are you crazy? And he said, Hey, his pants like I do. I see Joe Joe, You know if you're a good defensive player you don't have to talk about And then you don't want to get him round up thinking every like 40. And that's years. Yeah, Whenever there was this guy's the next Jordan or this guy is the Jordan stopper. I went. This isn't gonna go well, it's just it's not I used to love when guys talk trash, you know, I say things because I would be so jacked up ready to play against that. That guy he was gonna have a long night. The atmosphere at the garden last night like you played at the Boston Garden. You know those playoff games with a subject like just like that environment. What is that, like to play in an environment when you know the opposing team hates you. There's no better environment than those hostile environments as a opponent on your court. That's what basketball is all about. That's what competing is all about. I embrace it and it really It's a compliment to you as an individual. When Fans, bull you and try to come at you. It's a compliment you because because they know how good you are. And that's the thing that happened to prey on. You know, I said, you know the last couple days. That's just the respect they have for me. They don't respect them. They wouldn't say anything. But also what is he 20 years of age? I mean, imagine, Yeah. I mean, Nick, you're 20 years of age. You're in the garden there saying f you Trey Young. I am. Wow. It's a bit much. I will say that but at the same time, uh, when you kick somebody's ass They don't chant as much. You know that Then, at the end of the day, you know when the syriza with those same fancy, you know what we have to give him. His respecting is it is do because he came to play. And so he's one of those jumps from the start. That's embrace it. Don't bother you. You know, he loves it matter of fact, so and that's what great players do that looked really good and great places. They embrace that because that's what competing is all about. Do you recognize today's MBA? Oh, yes, of course. Yes. You know, you know, we all play in a different time. You know when I hate when people get to comparing, Oh, this service better. That is better. You know, you know this as more talented and it's just ridiculous When I hear that stuff, you know, people do the history go back, you know Was the greatest players ever play this game we're playing, You know, it was a knockout drag out type of game with guys just went at each other. It was very competitive. And so we've had our time with these guys times, and so only thing I hate is when they try to discredit us to prove a point. Yeah. I just wonder who would have benefited the most in today's rules. Who you played with. I wish that no, I couldn't touch me. You know, back when I played, you know, I was getting 28 30. Plus in hand check era. You know, people ask me. What would you have said? I don't know. You couldn't touch me. I can tell you to be over 35 the game, you know, because I love the physical contact. So the fact that they can't touch you like that anymore. I definitely would be beneficial to me. What's the best performance you ever witnessed? The best performance I haven't witnessed. The part of was against Michael Jordan, and I never had a player to do this before. I think I had 57 in Atlanta. We go back to Chicago weeks later. Remember Michael Jordan walks in our locker room before the game. We in suiting time, haven't gotten dressed that he walks in our locker room. I'm like, How is he doing? You know, so I'm thinking maybe going to the training room or something. What he wants by me. He walks by Kevin Willis and against the reigning women slap someone behind. He said Lace him up is gonna be alone and drunk and walked out and I'm in shock. I'm like you just and I didn't know what to say. I said, Well, you tell that so, So, Scottie Pippen. I will kick it got in there. What to say. Yes, 60. But you know, even though he had sixties the way he had it You know, it was electric man. I mean, it was. It was incredible to witness. You know what? He was unique. When we see Kobe Kobe was a volume shooter. Mike was pretty economical. Like he. He made the most of his possessions and his shots..

But Like he said to you can look at matchups The Clippers can throw. Beverly Adam think they're George's length and I'm thinking, throw quiet him if they had to, and like you said, they're doubling minutes Every team's gonna do this. It's kind of playoff Steph, where everybody just Says. Okay, somebody else beat us, and we talked about this the other day. I mean, molder can shoot the ball. You know, Yesterday, Wiggins was okay. It was two for four. But there's nobody on the floor it any time for the warriors where you say This is worth leaving stuff for and if they do, it's a mistake. So this is what you're gonna see all seas along If they want to be a play off team if they if they progressed through the year, and we talked about this yesterday a little bit, whether it's this is disabled player exception, whether it's some sort of a trade if they find themselves through this thing where they're in the hunt. They're gonna have to go get a shooter or even two because this is going to be the normal season long and you can't expect a 33 year old Steph Curry is great. He's he's been to carry this team like he did whether it was the 62 or get 30 every night. It's just not. I don't think it's realistic. Well, you know, you could run more high drag, which Rehman and then let your aim on, you know, run the middle game where he has the assist, and I think Wiseman could do that. There's other people. You don't have to always do it with the shooter. But I hear you, but I don't know if they're going to add any more payroll this year. Let's just see where they are. And you know it's it's the trade deadline's late in the year. One of the note of our Wiseman because we got into the you know, both services Wiseman yesterday Wiseman's a tremendous young player. He's gonna be a great player. There's no doubt but Nick Bosa You just never a lot of it is, you know, Nick place once a week. Maybe, you know, um, a four day once in a while, but once a week we're in the N B. A. And this is where Wiseman's gonna have to stay for that high school. It's different than 69. Minutes. In college, you play four nights a week, some nights, five nights a week and back to back and three out of four and 5 to 7 and six hard But he had his terrible low energy last night and surgeon Baka. The thing that concerns me is a little too cool. And as you know, strength, he's not used to finish young. So a Bach is a grown man, and he didn't bring the energy But I don't know if you watch the ESPN game. As I said, enough, you watch that one. But at the very end of the game, this is why Steve Kerr Is who he is. He calls him over and they might come up which is interesting. I don't think we'll be angry like with this exchange. But this was more than just you know, the typical. Let's Mike up the coach in the huddle and get to your name. Let's play hard to get a stop here and shoot the ball better. Let's go. Okay. Okay. I could do that. Now. He called him over. And he said, Hey, um Only thing I'm gonna say to you is you got to get back on defense. I know you're frustrated. But you got to get back on defense. You gotta play hard. And then he wanted out taking him off the floor right after that he wanted a plane 18 minutes last night. And at that, Steve, I think the biggest problem Nelly had with Chris Webber and happened right away. His first practice is and this is a practice. There wasn't cameras around or anything. But Chris Webber would not run the floor heart. He would run back lazily. And don Nelson got on the Florrick remember it so well. And he mocked him and said it was the Hank Aaron trot after Hank Aaron hit a home run. And he just kind of like shuffled like you. You run like that, and Weber gave him a look like old man. You know who I am? And it was off from right there and Anneli. Made him run a lap. He stopped practice and insisted he run a lap. Whoever would not run the lab. He refused right in his face, he said. I'm not doing it and that was it. It was over Bob Lanier, reset him over to his house and Black Hawk. Try to smooth it over never worked. He lost him the very first day. Don Nelson Coaching James Wiseman would Nellie's You know, tough guy bit with this ponytail. You know his Mafia Don Is, it s a but Steve. It's just It's amazing how Steve is such even though it's an old soul, and he's been around and he was doing a Gregg Popovich and Cool hand Luke in Arizona and all that, the way he just tenderly had to deal with the modern athlete where you don't challenge him like that, I think wise been. He's not Chris Webber. You could. You could challenge him and maybe in a close practice, But I even wonder what the Warriors think of them playing that. Back when Durant did it in the Western finals against used it. It was Hey, you know, Michael early in games used to move the ball around that shoot so much of that would like Well, Durant when I see on him, but this one was just beautiful. Steve Kerr like I know you're frustrated. You having a hard game, But all I need is, you know Sprint back defensively. That's it, innit? That's the beauty. Who Steve Curry's. Yeah, and it's Ian. Look, I don't know why is minute all on. We obviously don't have the access that would that we had, but everything you hear from him. Is he is extremely coachable. I don't know how you reacted last night, but I would imagine that I would imagine it in the way that he did it Like you said he didn't scream of the guy didn't show the guy up Nothing like that. We've talked about it many times about how athletes are these days and how you need to be with him. I think that that's fair. I mean, telling an athlete you gotta play hard. I think that's fair and in the way that he did it right. You don't think the guy's gonna react like Weber did Right now. I I don't know him at all. But no, I don't. I don't think so. I mean everything and he's he's you know, he got you know Penny Hardaway. You know, it's talked Anthony Slater the other day and you know he coached him hard. I think he's been coached hard. I'm not sure, however, got coach but You know he could now would he do it in a closed door setting of a practice in Arum out? You know you don't You know what you dream on. Would do that. You know you take Steve can be kind of a good cop in that way, cause dream out. I'm sure As they go back and look at the video and you know he's doing the Hank Aaron Trot. You can't have that. But you know, he sees a rookie. It's only a safe game in the NBA.
