00:00All right, let's get to tonight.
00:02You got a big game, too, at the Garden in New York City on 7th Avenue.
00:08Knicks and the Pacers, of course, after the absolute,
00:12one of the all-time meltdowns by the Knicks in game number one.
00:17They will try to bounce back.
00:19Of course, here's Jalen Brunson yesterday.
00:22He's going to try to sell you that they have to forget about
00:26what happened in game one.
00:28Good luck with that.
00:29I don't know how easy that is.
00:31Here's Jalen Brunson.
00:32I mean, I'm pretty sure everyone's going to be thinking about it,
00:35but I think our mindset has to be short-term memory.
00:40Just from, like, the disappointment part.
00:42Obviously, we got to learn from what we did,
00:44but the short-term memory comes from the disappointment
00:47and discouragement of how we lost last night.
00:49So I'm just going to be ready to go.
00:53I have that same hoodie.
00:56I wear it to play basketball.
00:58Yeah, I wear it once in a while.
01:00Listen, there's no getting away from game one.
01:04In fact, I don't think you ever recover from it.
01:07A game that you're up 17, a game you're up 14, a game you're up 9,
01:12a game you're up 7, a game you lose in overtime, a game you lose on a brick.
01:19That was a brick that Halliburton shot off the back of the rim that, you know,
01:23went up to the roof and came back down like it was a rocket.
01:27Houston, we have a problem.
01:29I mean, the thing went up 8 feet in the air and came straight down and counted.
01:32The only thing that benefited the Knicks was that it was a 2, not a 3.
01:37And then they go to overtime and still got their ass beat by a guy that they gave up on.
01:41They're really good at that.
01:42Obi-Wan Kenobi topping.
01:44Your boy with a couple of vicious buckets and dunks in overtime to finish it off.
01:50And he was and won.
01:51That was a horrible missed call on the foul on the dunk.
01:54He got hacked hard across both arms.
01:58I mean, they'll never live it down, that loss.
02:00In fact, they'll lose the series and they'll all talk about it later.
02:03Game one killed us.
02:04Did you see this video, since you brought up Obi, the video of the fan saying something to him
02:11when he was walking off the court after game one?
02:14It's been circling around social media now.
02:17So, he's like signing a couple of things.
02:19Because, like, some Knicks fans do still love Obi-Topp.
02:23But he was on the team.
02:24Some fan was in there and gave him the business.
02:27You, Pharrell and Ness, that's why we got rid of you.
02:31He just went right, looked right at the guys.
02:33He's like, yo, I'm staying at the Four Seasons.
02:35Bring yourself on over.
02:37He was like, come on over and see me.
02:38He just gave him right, went right back at him.
02:41Your boy Obi wasn't backing down from anybody.
02:43Listen, he is a great player.
02:45I think he's a great player.
02:47He's a weapon.
02:48He comes in and knocks down threes and he goes to the 10th.
02:52My man has been doing Dr. J reversals from one side of the glass to the other on the hop
02:58with the reverse layup off the Jimmy Kiss.
03:02I think Obi's a great player.
03:03His brother, the whole family, they're ballers.
03:06I like him.
03:07I thought it was a mistake to get rid of him.
03:09But the Knicks have it all figured out until they get punched right in the Adam's apple.
03:13Of course, we know Tom Thibodeau is a guy that likes to dive into the film.
03:18He's always talking about, we've got to look at the film.
03:21We've got to look at the film.
03:21Dive into some hair plugs, too, son.
03:23He must have loved the film of that game the other night.
03:28Let's see what he found out.
03:29Probably a compilation of things.
03:31We had a big lead.
03:35A 14-point lead with 2.50 to go.
03:42We fouled in the penalty.
03:45We stopped the clock.
03:46We gave him open threes.
03:48We missed free throws.
03:49We gave him second shots.
03:53And that's why no lead is safe.
03:55And you have to play for all 48 minutes.
03:58You've got to challenge shots.
03:59You have to have awareness as to what's going on in the game.
04:01I think he's just incredible that they get him to do the interviews.
04:07I know it's required by the NBA.
04:09But he's the last guy in the world that wants to be doing pressers.
04:13And I can't even believe that he answers questions.
04:16You know, I got to give him credit.
04:18I think he's got more flavor than Carlisle.
04:21Carlisle is really vanilla.
04:23But, you know, it's not like Thibodeau's a comedian.
04:27But he's right.
04:28Everything he said was dead on.
04:30I mean, they did everything wrong.
04:32Their defense was terrible.
04:34Second chances, one after the next.
04:36I had a guy tell me one day, last week, listen, I had 21 and 10 in a game.
04:42And the guy goes, listen, we don't need your points and rebounds.
04:46I go, what?
04:47And the guy goes, yeah, we need you to get back on D.
04:49I said, I get all your effing rebounds, bro.
04:53He goes, rebounds don't matter.
04:54I'm like, oh, dude, I really don't like you.
04:57I told him, I go, I never liked you.
04:58And now I don't like you more.
04:59Can you imagine what, listening to this guy, he said, we don't get any rebounds.
05:05You get second, third chances.
05:07They score every time.
05:08This is the NBA.
05:08This is pro ball, son.
05:09This ain't down Fat Man Rec League.
05:11You get second and third chances in the pros.
05:15There's guys knocking down shots.
05:16Naismith never missed.
05:18Second and third chances.
05:19Missed free throws.
05:21Turnovers.
05:21Bad shots.
05:22Bad clock management.
05:24L.
05:25You lose.
05:26All right.
05:33So.
05:34All right.
