[Assistant] You just put the facts out here, right? And I'm not just saying the mayor understand because I'm in the game. I'm in the business. You're a man. I know how you know how this machine goes with the facts out here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And let's see where it goes. There's room for debate, right? One of the debates is the cost of the thing. All right. Yeah. All right. So lay the cost out here. How much?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And if you delay this, how much is going to cost me 10 years later? Sure. But this is the thing and we're off of it. But the flexibility that you talk about at this thing, that's what's required here because you have to be nimble here. Yeah, right. Be nimble. You can't be rigid in your thinking like


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've said this before, and I think I've told, you know, I've had some conversations with some of the people at the Browns, I've told them this, that's it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is a big, big boy town and big girl town. They're willing to have, they're old enough and smart to have a debate with you, right? Yeaah. Don't cheat them of it. Don't try to fool them. Don't cheat them of it. Yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the downside to going to the event, right? Because you don't know how it's going to shake out, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So let's get to this, uh, cause I'm waiting for the player association and then the agent, guess what? We're not taking them tests no more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're not doing these anymore. Because you can't keep your mouth shut, right? You're not, you're not a trustworthy partner. Right. So no, we're not taking any more tests. You're gonna see me, you're gonna get it all filmed. Or a game live. That's what you're gonna get.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And here, and here's the thing, right? And so this is what, so if I'm a player, I'm not taking your freaking test no more, right? I agree with that. That's over. And then the other day, I'll run, I'll


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But what I'm disappointed in people in our industry here, right? Do you see the the the pundits the note all?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They all jumped on that bandwagon so fast. Yeah, they did and talking about, I mean, you had real legit people jumping about. Oh, no, I was disappointed at the media outlets that ran the stories falling. He's not even 11. He's not going to 11. He's gonna go further than 11. I mean, these are legitimate people. Sure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I said, Mikey, go back to that graphic that the Texans just tweeted out yesterday. Show him that graphic, right? Because this is this is telling. It was always him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that's it. It wasn't us. It was somebody else. But see it was at CJ Strauss expense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He, he, he scored really, really low. We'll give you a score on that too. It's 18.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me tell you why it's stupid, right? Because okay, so your your mental capacity, you're able to process the stuff mentally, right? That don't mean you have a physical skill set. Still got to pull the trigger and make the trigger here. Yeah, I know exactly the two go together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, it's coaching. He's a, I said he a coaching problem now. And then they went even further like this. Well, he didn't go to the manning camp. I said the manning camp is the end all to be


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not a prerequisite. But who got swept up in it now is, so Will Levinson, he's moving up, right? Oh yeaah, he's like, oh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna, I'm gonna slightly disagree with that to the point. You're, mainly you're right. Some people do it when I got drafted in 86.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Different time, but I got to have 86. So the pistons that were just coming off winning the


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, no, uh, they're just with Isaiah and them and they were just putting the team together, right? So in 86 when I got drafted McCloskey, Jack McCloskey was the general manager who put the architect putting the pistons together had come out in Detroit and said we're taking brass sellers at number 11.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he said, you can book it. It was so much of a thing, Jay, that I didn't go to New York for the draft.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I stayed in Warrensville at my parents house because I wanted, you could only take, bring a couple of people and I was like, nah, there's been too many people on this ride, right? So I'm going to sit there like you see those players sitting at home. That's why they're sitting at those houses, right? Because they want more people here, right? And so Detroit,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Trucks with the, uh, satellite trucks to my house in Cleveland. And they're gonna, they're broadcasting from


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My driveway in Warrensville because they expect the Pistons to take me to Lubbock.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I didn't get a call. They were ready to go. McClossy had called me and said we're going ready to go. We're taking it 11. And then I got a call from the Bulls that maybe probably an hour before the draft and said, listen, you stay by your phone. We think we coming your way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's. And they picked. They picked nine. Nine. So they got me at nine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did you hear the comments they were making about Will Levers? This is when you get onto Nigger when he's sliding, right? And these were people who, these were analysts that played the game, right? Knew the game. They were like, he's mechanical.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He had times when he disappeared. They say, well, you know, he had a bad line. I said, yeah, but some other things here didn't quite add up, right? So no matter what the other guys are saying that this there's something here doesn't add up here. And that's why the tumble comes, right? Because people are passionate. There's 30 teams, Jay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that was considered a tumble. What I felt bad for because nobody had prepped that kid, right? Yeah, the downside of doing is you can be embarrassed here, right? And so now your game is use that as fuel sure to motivate you to come well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You got four defensive players, right? And as the Philly guys age out and contract out, create some opening. They have, I don't have to know this guy. I didn't line up with this guy for four years. I know exactly how to play off of him, right? And there's some, there's some strength in it. The guys I play with in the pros, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My best ones were when I had a teammate that I played in college with, right? Really? That I knew. Yeah, right. Because I didn't have to learn him. No learning curve. He knew exactly what I wanted, right? And I knew exactly how to do him, right? And so that's why when you play with him, like I know where to feed him the ball. I know where to get it to him. They know where to come back to me at.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's the learning curve that is going away because sometimes we learn something you have to it takes a while to learn how to play.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm interested today to see exactly, even though we don't have a high pick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not like we sitting here and we just scrapping it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Taking our time doing nothing. Tilly Winks, right? What are we going to do today?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me ask you a question. You think they package some with Nufl?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All the players, players wants to designs are the last thing they care about. No, I know. You know what I'm saying? But I'm saying if you try to get up, you're going to have to give up. Yeah, something more than more than picks, right? More than picks, right? Your little little picks down here do nothing for me. Yeah, that's not a


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So let me say this, there's value in


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not giving up my threes, right? You know what I'm saying? I'm not, I'm not doing that, right? I'm gonna give up a player, right? And try to give a, uh, uh, one of my threes to move up to something just a little better, right? And so that's what because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You giving up pigs does nothing for me, right? Right. It does nothing for me, right? Give me something because it's just like the portal in college now, right? You know what's happening in the college basketball now with the portal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where instead of going to the high school, recruiting high school kids, going out, getting proven cannot, I don't give me a proven body, right? Right. A proven body. Yeah. Then I don't have the learning curve. I don't have to wait on the learning curve, right? So the high school kid now is not getting the scholarship offer. Hey, what about me? They're like, nah, go get this portal kid. In fact, you're pretty smart.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Against College Tech. Right, right. I don't have to guess this thing. Yeah. And so this is what this is. So we're going to find out tonight exactly how shrewd Andrew Berry is, right? Where the thinking is because you cannot play this hand out that we have now and say that, okay, I'm going to make this team significantly better by these draft positions that I'm holding today. It's just not. It's all crapshoot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here's the game. The game is, if I'm playing the GM game, the game is this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What can I package with my three to get into the second round?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, but I'm saying if I could say package something to get to a position because you say, okay, I can't get to the number one pick in the second round. But can I get to this slot here? Sure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'd go back and I'd be looking for, you know the Big Ten did very well yesterday. They did. Third of the first round picks were from the Big Ten. How many, a third? A third. Wow, that's impressive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A third will be for the Big Ten. Right? So how much, how much gold mining do we have to do? Uh, gold mining do we have to do down in the Big Ten? What's still floating out there? There are reporters out there. Uh, there's a number of other players out there. That's interesting. A third. A third. I was shocked because I can't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For sure. Right. So again, before we bounce to Lamar again, it really depends on how creative the Browns are going to try to be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's only because they attributed it to the Browns, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And everybody else that they brought in came into this range here. This is your range. This is the one. Don't look at that locker because nothing going on in that locker, right? You're not getting the one over there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So everybody else on that little chart fell in where? Here's your, here's your scale.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, Deshaun. Why he might have a chance because he got them. Oh, someone's going to do it. It'll be because he got them over a barrel. So, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, uh, I'm gonna take this money. Teams had chances, if they wanted to go get them, they could have done it. Here, I'm gonna take this money because this is life changing money, right? I'm not a fool. I'm not gonna play on a one year deal here. I did that before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, you know, the son gave that to her as a gift. She wasn't working. So she's not paying no taxes. That's a straight cash. That's a gift. That's a straight cash.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They close up in there. They come to play. So, I mean, they cannot be discounted. I mean, again, I'll swing it back our way, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The pressure on us, right, because other people are doing things. Yeah. Right? We, you know, uh, it's Cornbread Maxwell when he's broadcasting the games for the Celtics, he has a phrase that he uses during the game when the Celtics are playing around. He said the Celtics are playing with their food.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, so, so, Cleveland playing with you, playing with their food, right? So that means you have to get at it. What, today's day? Yeaah. It's gonna be, even though we're not in the first round or the second round.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The question is will OBJ be healthy? That's it. That's it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That, that, that, that, that, that, that's good for the healing process because you're close back, you're closer to what you were before. Sure. Then, then the year you're also 21 months older. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, let me just answer your question, so first let me answer the super chat question first.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kobe is not firing JB. 51 wins is a measuring point in this league and always has been. 50 wins is a measuring point. Now, I will say this, JB is on notice because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think anyone didn't think that Jamie didn't get outworked by Thibodeau because he did, right? And there's levels to this. There's levels to learning. So our guys had never been in the playoff before. Now they know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Playoffs are totally different than the regular season. Everybody saw that. I think it wasn't that the Cavaliers lost here that irritated everybody. It was how they lost, right? That's what irritated everybody. We understand that they had a good regular season, enjoyed that. The playoffs were very disappointing here and that's what has to be built upon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I will say, I will say this though to, to, to Mikey's point or question is this. As we retool here, you did miss a thing. You knew you were weak at the three.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was weak early. It was weak midway. It was weak at the end because it's a vital cog in the position of basketball that you have somebody that is competent. I told him to sign Carmelo Anthony, right? And now you see the value in having a player like not that he was going to play 38 minutes a night.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But in 20 minutes, you take Carmelo Anthony and put him in the garden. You think he would have been scared? No. He would have been scared.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The people probably would cheer for Carmelo. Nobody else signed him too. Does that tell you something? Well, but see this league is monkey see monkey do. It's what it is. Alright, and then the other thing I'll tell you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, Jared Allen and, and, and, and, and Evan Mobley, you know, who have played great in the regular season, they learned a lesson because Mr. Robinson and Hardenstein and, and, uh, Julius Ramsey to some degree, they showed them another side of this game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can't play that way during 82 regular season games because it's a different game every night. But in a 7 game series, I can play a different way and I can use my strong suits. They ran them up under the basket just about every time you could think about it, right? And so now you know what to work on in all seasons.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would tell you, from us, because we didn't have really any flexibility for any moves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought was a brilliant move by the Lakers. When we got rid of Kevin, right, Tristan was sitting out there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because you need another body, alright. So we know that now. Now we go into the season, next season, and figure out, we better fill some of these holes. And I don't think you can deny them now because of what the world saw. And this was, if you had any Cleveland roots here,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It antagonized people across this country, right? Because if people that live here that may live other places, they felt like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was symbolic of that. The world had a different look at us because.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well here. And they didn't. And I'm not saying it because I do radio for the Cavaliers, right? They've, they've been, uh, Kobe's been pretty smart about it, right? One of the things that he were hamstrung with was going out and trying to acquire somebody because they don't have, they don't have the assets acquired and they didn't want to pay, right? I understand. So that's why I say go get coat, gossip.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, but see that I think there was more to that story than now it comes back to bite you because that's exactly Miami.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But here, but I will tell, I'll tell you this. There's a, there's in this league, there's two types, right? Some teams don't care about your antics.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can you play? Sure. I don't take anything else. I'll take that the other stuff. Some people don't want to take that right and so for whatever happened with Kevin. I don't know. I'm not in there, but I will tell you this the problems that they had right did not


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me say something. There's no way you can come back with the same roster. I mean, you were exposed. We were on 7th Avenue on Front Street. I mean, people saw that on ABC, right? And so the country saw that. They laughed at you. So the part of it is this. You may not want to be in the game. The game is the game, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In any sport, when you have glaring weaknesses, they have to be addressed. You cannot do this. The Browns do this very well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yup. I don't see nothing. And I told them same thing. I said the same thing gonna happen to you, right? And I'm not speaking because I'm speaking for the Stanford. I've been there. I know what it takes. The playoffs are totally different than the regular season. Now they, they, and you can, you can have the greatest success all you want to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Doesn't matter at the end. What happened was there were guys that were unsure themselves and they had never been punched in the mouth like that before and it set them back so far. They needed to make the playoffs last year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's learning too, right? JP didn't be deep in his pro. Let me tell you something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's seen it. No, no, no, that's another. So we'll get to that, but I'll tell you this, right? So there's value in having an OG next to you that knows the game. They tell you to make you to keep keep it honest for you, right? But I will tell you this as well. You sit up in here and you cannot fool yourself here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] JB over here is saying, you know, saying all the right things. The problem is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tib is playing from a different deck because he's got experience here. Julius Randall, I'm taking the game four was, right? Julius Randall wasn't getting off at all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the sad, that's the part about it. I think that that irked everybody because we had expectations here. Yep. Right. And the expectation was at least this. You were going to compete.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, and I will say this. I will say this. You're learning on the job. The thing that I was most surprised with was this in game five. I've been in do or die game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause you gotta have that in you. If you're going down. We're going down. We're going down. No, no, no. Not, not we. We going down. You going down through these hands right here, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All I saw was guys trying to play hard, but there was nobody to step forward and say on my back, but I'll turn on Miami. Jimmy Butler had him on his back. I turned my, I go to Golden State. Stephanie put it on their back. I see Sacramento, the, uh, Aaron Fox put them on their back. John Marant put them on their back. Bane put them on their back, right? This is in Atlanta, Trace Young put them on their back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who was the dude putting this on our back? It was the sheriff or something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You and I said one thing and I'll remind everybody, we said, we said we have gone win this series, but I did not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jay and I said that we agreed on one thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If the Cavs lose game one, all bets are off here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I don't, I don't, listen, I'm not, I'm not panicking here, but I will tell you this, your rotation, so when you talk about sweeping changes, your rotation has to change. You need to, here, let me tell you what you need.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You need to resolve your three position. You're not going to resolve it through normal means because you have no money to do it, right? So you're going to have to buy off the scrap heap. But you need two more additional bodies because let me counteract this thing here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You too, not rebounder. I'm gonna send two dogs up in here, right? We cracking some heads up in here, right? Who are the dogs? You better find them out here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I'm looking around, and for this year, I need to get out of the moment. Tristan was sitting at home where I could have used him to bang around, right? I'm just using him for the year. I'm not using him for the five year span. Here, got through out this yesterday. Boogie Cousins down there in Mexico. Yup.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yup, give me that. Here, not the boogie cousins, the boogie cousins. I need somebody, I need somebody with some dog in them. Yeah. Right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't like, here, those comments you just heard, I don't like any of them, right? Because they're symbolic of what is being subliminally thought. Who do they go to? Right. It goes to the culture being set here, right? And who sets the culture? Well, you know, it starts at the top. Are they saying that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because but see what stops it. You don't know what's supposed to say, but I tell you what Jimmy Butler not having it, right? You don't have nobody here. That's not having it, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because somebody that keeps somebody honest because I'm gonna just tell you this. I'm gonna tell you this on any of the teams. I've been on Pistons Bulls.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They had some words, probably had some hands on him by this time, right? They had some hands on him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's crazy. Five and an eight. One of them is going to play for the Eastern Conference. But here, what is the common denominator? You have dudes on each team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's not having it. Jimmy Butler's not having it. Brunson's not having it, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] G, but here's the other side of it, right? You could be saying anything at the press conference to get out the moment, right? What you gonna show me between now and August? What you gonna do about it? Because there's a problem here and before and the problem is, here's the thing, Jay. Everybody in this town saw it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, you couldn't, you couldn't tell this town. You couldn't tell. I'm just gonna leave it here centric to to Northeast Ohio, right? Everybody. Everybody here saw it, right? And it has to be addressed. So you can't sit here and say we're not addressing it because it has


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Give me a few voices. I remind people and the off season is about, you can, there's redemption here. You can redeem yourself, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But you have to have some honesty in it. I'll take you back to remember Magic had that tragic series, playoff series against the Celtics.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right. And the world came crashing down on me. I mean, they turned on him like it was nobody business in this country. And so he used that entire offseason. Jay knows it. He used that entire offseason to rebuild himself and his game. But there was some honesty there. You have to say, I stunk the joint up. It was me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, well, I heard, I heard Donovan Mitchell say it was me. I faltered right now. It's just not to talk. I don't have to believe it was you that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mikey, Mikey, you missed a couple things. It's not just Jimmy Butler, right? Kyle Lowry's not having it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It would have to been JB to tell me that you wasn't doing your job here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Somebody would have fought you. I'm about to fight you right now, right? Because I got to hold you accountable here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You get here. Let me just say the worst look they had an entire player.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We can run up under the basket. Mitchell Robinson is making jokes on you in the postcard and the press conference. Mitchell Robinson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you can run, if you can run in the ground by Embiid, that's a different story. Mr. Robinson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right? So you have, there's some honesty here, right? But there's some gaping holes here. There was nobody JB could turn to on the sideline that could help. Mhm. Who's the OG? Nobody.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So all the dudes you play down in the G League and down here, nothing gonna help you at all. But Carmelo's sitting at home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's the same reason why the people flood, uh, flood out of Brown Stadium when the Browns are struggling and they're like, well, we got Watson under him. They're like, no.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've talked to Kobe a number of times, right? And I feel like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's a guy that keeps it honest. So, I don't care what you say at that podium, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are things that have to be done here, and I think he recognized that. Now the question is, there's some things that have to be addressed here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because some of the things that you saw transpire in this five game series have to be answered because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The problem, Jay, is the other teams in the league saw how you got walked down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're gonna use the same methodology against you. So you have to counteract that narrative, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's the same reason why, as the Bulls were struggling, they went and got a nemesis to help them. They went and found Dennis Rodman. Sure. Right. Because they had to be honest with themselves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This thing ain't gonna work like this without a person like that, right? So you have to get out of what you thought it was about and say, will I do what's necessary to make us better?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We gave everybody the fodder that they needed because Stephen A went ballistic. I mean, this is, and not just Stephen A, but I mean the whole thing, the whole narrative, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you undermined your 50 win season, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now you ain't given a performance like Atlanta and like I'm at this thing Sacramento.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So here, I think it was tough medicine for everybody. I'm not gonna, I'm not here to panic yet. I don't like the way any of it went down, right? I don't think anybody here would, anybody tell you they like the way it went down is lying to you, right? I mean, I need that old


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I'ma tell you this, I'm not sure that anybody saw that coming, right? The way it came, right? Cause some things, some things you can't teach, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some things are, the coach can't instill in you. Either you, either you do or you don't, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we saw more of you don't than you do, right? Saw a lot more. Uh, Mike, you got some reads?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Swishy course, you know, Bible reminds me of Greg Maddox, the look. Oh, Greg Maddox had those glasses on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's a lot of pressure. I don't worry about that about Enjigba. Enjigba is a talent. He's a talent and I know he sat out all of last year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I get to the second round, I go for what I receive. But I need a linebacker. And you know what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Joe often describes him as Joe 2.0 and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He looked like his dad. He had a lot of the same skill sets as his father. He was very charismatic. He was charming. He was funny.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes. Next, David Bell. We gotta start checking people's NIL deals. Diva has his own NIL deal, lining these people up. I'm like, what's that player? David Bell. David Bell.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the end of December was so intense and so much to do, so I didn't even have time to edit the vlog, even though I wanted to. But now I'm here again and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought I would just do this vlog telling you all about what's been going on since last time. I want to begin this video by just saying thank you. Thank you so much for your amazing response on my last video.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So in my last video I opened up my heart and told you about something that have been draining us for so many years. To explain really shortly for those of you who haven't seen my last vlog, we are


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Being threatened by a big wind turbine industry that might be built here in this area. And this have been going on for over seven years now. For a couple of months we, we were really happy because this was not supposed to happen after all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I could never imagine that so many of you would understand me and that so many of you would


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, very soon, in about a week, we have a meeting with the politicians here, and I'm gonna leave over all the names in this petition. All of you who have signed against this winter bean industry in this nature area. And I want to thank you so much.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's so many of you that have shared my video and have made Instagram stories and you know, you have engaged so much and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's been like a rollercoaster these, this months, or I mean these last weeks. Uh, because a few days after I did the video where I told you about this, uh, first I felt super happy. I was like up in the clouds happy because I saw all of the engagement and I thought


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wow, this is really gonna make a change, you know. I thought that the politicians can't ignore this. And of course, I know it will make a change, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just felt that there's no chance they're gonna be able to build this now because so many people from all of the countries want to save this, uhm, area.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was not gonna talk about this too much, but I just want to explain, uh, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, we found out that the municipalities here wants to lead the energy of winter turbines in Sweden. The municipalities here are already planning 1,400 winter turbines in these areas.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After that, I just, from being super happy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For us. If I wanna fight, I do it for the nature here. So we had a whole week where everything just felt like crap.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And at the same time, we also had to work a lot, because it was, you know, the weeks before Christmas, and, eh, Johan was in the swifty working a lot, and I was working a lot with the packing prints, and, and at the same time, I, I still was, eh, you know, coughing. Do you say cough? Like when you do, cough, like that? Cough.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Coughing would just never stop. I had cough for many weeks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I got maybe the worst pain I've ever felt. Just to breathe, you know, was, it was like this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The worst thing was still to not know anything. Uhm, I think the reason why I felt so depressed was to be back in this waiting mode.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We have been waiting seven years for this. We have been waiting seven years to live our lives fully because of this damn winter bean parks. And I think when I was back in this mood again, this waiting,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Constant waiting for someone else to take decisions about our future. I just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It just broke my soul. I didn't want to wait anymore. But suddenly then I got this super power in a way. I felt it in my body. I...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I felt so strong. I was sweating a lot. I felt like I could carry a car on my arms like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I felt like I wanted to run, like, around the whole earth. I got super power.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean it, at least I felt that way. I felt like I could do anything just to get me out of that feeling of waiting. I was so tired of it. So me and Johan, we...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We thought that we can't stay in this constant waiting anymore, cause we have a life to live. I called it my survivor mode.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It feels like some kind of power that comes into your body to make sure to, to, to help you get out of the situation that drains you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I'm gonna spend another year, another day waiting, I'm gonna die. That's how I felt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not, I'm not gonna wait anymore. And you won't feel the same. So we forced ourselves to see other alternatives to our lives. And it felt really scary in the beginning. We were so tired of


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We couldn't keep living like that. No matter what, if it's gonna end up positive or negative, we need to continue to dream.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was a really wonderful relief to not feel like our happiness is depended on something that we can't control. And I think that's a great lesson in life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a big difference from giving up or from accepting the things you can't change. Uhm, I'm never gonna give up to try to protect this area. But meanwhile, we have a life to live.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was like, I thought I would do this intro really short, but I just have so much to say about this. So what happened then is that we started working like hell.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, we had a lot of work to do. It was December and especially in the Smithy with the jewelry making. So for those of you who doesn't know, we started a jewelry making in September and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You would have been working every single day since that. I mean, that's a good thing, right? We could never imagine that it would sell so good. Uh, and he, you know, have done everything by hand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, which takes, uh, a long time and, uh, we have had so many orders that we have had to, you know, close down the webshop or...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hi enterprises and you know, we've done everything we can, uh, until now that we ended up actually closing the webshop because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now for the new year we have some really good ideas and solutions to how we can work with this without.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Working our ass off, if you understand. But before we could, eh, could start focusing on new things and new solutions, we needed to get done with all the orders that we already had. Since Johan closed the webshop, he had over hundreds of orders to go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, I mean, if he would do all these orders alone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It would take a few months, probably. So I decided to start working 100% with him and Smithy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that was, eh, it was actually really fun. We had new energy. We didn't feel like the wind turbine industry was taking us down anymore. We felt like, okay, let's just get shit down and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's work now so we can come further.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, we still have a lot to do. So, so after I've added this long video, I'm gonna continue working in the smithy which you want because we have like, maybe 85 orders to go now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because we really need to get done with that thing before we can start with new projects. Oh my god, I feel like, I feel like I have no idea how messy this is gonna be, because I


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's always so hard to make a new vlog when you have done so many things and it's been such a long time. Uhm, so in the rest of this video I will just show you all the films that I've filmed from like one week before Christmas until now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, Christmas and New Year and we've been traveling to the mountains and I've been in Gothenburg and it's, yeaah, it's been a lot of things.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the days before Christmas, when most people went on Christmas vacation, me and Johan started working from morning to late night in the smithy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we actually had a lot of fun. And it just felt so nice to focus on getting shit done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And every night before we went to bed, we made a mark over all the orders that we had done during the day. That was a good feeling.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And suddenly, Christmas was here. On Christmas Eve, we were here in Grundtjärn with my whole family, and the other day we celebrated with Johan's family.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Nanook was just as excited as the kids to see the Santa.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My older brother Isak lives near Stockholm with his family, and before they would go back home he had a wish. He wanted to try out to take ice bath.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then it was Isaac's turn to try the ice bath for the very first time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The next day I met up with my dear friend Jackie. She works as a photographer and digital creator and just started her own business as a virtual assistant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that means she will work with people like me, that uses the social media platforms as a big part of the job. And you know what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now in January she starts working part-time as my virtual assistant. Which means she will help me out with all these different things that I don't have time for anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And even though my mom started working for me last year, we still can't keep up with everything as the channels have been growing so much lately. For example, did you know that on an average day, I get over a thousand comments, mails and messages on all my different platforms and mail inboxes?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a lot to handle. And even though both me and my mom spend a lot of time trying to keep up with everything, we still miss a lot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So one of the things that Jackie will help me with is the comment sections. To make sure I don't miss anything important and to help me answer people and also to help me find comments with questions from people so that I can answer questions in Q&A videos. And of course a lot of other things.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think 2019 is a year when I...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll try my best to fix things so that life will be a little bit easier because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So this day, we were gonna have a photoshoot to take some photos of us together before we were gonna meet up with some friends. Oh, and by the way, she just got a baby. The cutest little girl ever, named Signe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then we went to visit our friend Linda. We were gonna celebrate a fake new year with a couple of friends. Because it wasn't really New Year's Eve. But since we couldn't celebrate it together as we first planned, we did it this way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Early next morning, it was time for a new adventure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Me and Johan had decided to celebrate our new year at Marsfjällen. You know, the beautiful place among the mountains that I've been talking about many times before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is also the place where we bought a cottage some months ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But this time we didn't go to a cottage, because it's cold right now during the winter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We wanted to give ourselves a little vacation, so we booked two hotel nights at the beautiful Mashviel Mountain Lodge.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have been to this place many times before since I often have come to these areas around the mountains to work on different photos or film projects. And the owners, Ingela and Vestland, are just the kindest persons.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right now we live in our fantasies, but we still have a piece of land near the lake, but you couldn't really walk there through the forest, so you had to go through with the ice kind of. So we are walking there now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] First we ate a delicious dinner and then we spent the rest of the night at a pub with live music, performance and lots of happy people and new friends.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Next morning, before we were gonna drive back home, our friend Vestland showed us around the little town and the areas nearby.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because the next day, it was time for me to pack my bags again and leave for a new destination. Me and my mom were going to Gothenburg.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we took the night train from the closest city and it would take 12 hours. It was a long night and I just couldn't sleep at all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it felt much better when the night finally was over and we got closer to Gothenburg in the morning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As some of you already know, Gothenburg is the city that I used to live in before I moved up to the north.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I grew up a couple of miles outside Gothenburg and the last years me and my family lived in the city of Gothenburg.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have only been there twice since I moved eight years ago. I used to hate the city, but not anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, when I don't need to live in the city anymore, I can see it from another perspective. I can appreciate the city, and I can see the beauty of it. And especially Gothenburg really is a beautiful city, and the people living there are so kind and so happy. And I never saw that when I lived there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I guess when I was younger I blamed the city for my own unhappiness. Cause I was longing for another kind of life, close to nature, the kind of life that I live today. And of course no city in the whole world can give me what I wanted. Cause that I needed to give me myself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, I always felt like I wanted to say sorry to Gothenburg. I didn't mean to be so grumpy. And, actually, I love you. If I would ever be forced to live in a city again, I would choose you, Gothenburg.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the reason I came to Gothenburg now, apart from dancing in dad's kitchen, was to meet up with a photo company called Cupix.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For a long time now, we have tried to find a better solution for selling my photo prints and art prints. As you might already know, we do everything ourselves right now when it comes to the webshop.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We have the same problem here as with a Euro remaking. We get too much order for us to handle alone, which means we spend endless nights packing prints. Even though I love doing that, I get less and less time for creating and doing the things I really wanna do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, we went here to have a meeting with them and I just couldn't feel happier. They were super nice and just like us they are a family business and they did everything from scratch. It really felt like a true handicraft and they were so passionate about their work. It felt like a match made in heaven.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was a big relief after that meeting. One step closer to a more stress-free life. Then it was our last evening in Gothenburg, so we ate a good dinner with dad, and then we had a spontaneous family party before we went to bed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, now I'm home again in Grundtjärn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's the beginning of January and we have a whole new year ahead of us. It's like a new chapter in life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I tell you, it was big drama. That room, where more cameras could barely hear for the clicking. Whenever the judge would turn his head or make a motion that they wanted to capture.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I met with Merrick Arnall. I liked him. He's a person who would have gotten 98 votes or 100 votes in the 1990s, just a few years before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, it was impossible not to be riveted with her testimony. She was compelling.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He'd better be good. He'd better have an answer because she sounds very credible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I jumped in a cab and came running over and managed to get through security into the White House. It was very exciting. It was wonderful. It was, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tap your dad on the shoulder and say, I would say it this way. Uhm, can't do that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He did not follow their instructions. Oh no. Oh no, Senator. Well, let me, let me pick that strain up. Alright, but I'd like to get on the record right now that I don't feel very free to disregard what Congress decided. The mere fact that a law is outrageous is not enough to make it unconstitutional.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Very pleased to announce that I will nominate Judge Clarence Thomas to serve as Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mitch McConnell doesn't even wait for the day to end.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After Antonin Scalia dies, to put out a statement saying,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In effect, we're not going to let President Obama replace him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or he's never faced a fight like this. He never faced one where he could go, uh, go down like this. And it was right there on the razor's edge.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Both of them are kind of testing each other a little bit. Where are you at on this? You know, how strong are you? And McConnell basically says that the president


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You don't worry about me. I'm strong as mule piss. That's his quote. I'm strong as a mule piss. In other words, he's not going to let up. He's not going to give up. He's not going to surrender.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It serves to rally Republicans and make it an us-versus-them kind of issue. And if it's an us-versus-them kind of issue, when you have the majority, that's what you want.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That list, that was a massive seller. Which is, hey.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You may hate Trump, you may not trust him, but it's gotta be this ten. And I don't think you'd be president without that list.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nah, I just laugh because I'm fat and I'm too tired to be talking trash. You make a lot of noises. Okay, we've seen it enough.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh. Oh. Is he catching puns? That looks about right. Hold on, hold on, watch this, watch this, watch this. It's, it's, hold on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel like it's like running away from your family. Like I grew up with these guys. We had a whole complete season. Just the success and the great football that the USFL put out. I feel like I would be crazy to run away from that. And it's just a great, great, great, great setup, great, um, opportunity. And that's why I chose USFL over XFL. Any day of the week. Any day of the week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Listen, I love walking, I hate running. I play running back, so I hate running. Anything that gotta go fast and breathe heavy, I hate it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Heard that before, but, you know, just controlling what I control. Be ready for the call if it happens.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pretty much the same thing. Football is football. I think the only slight difference is just the quarterback play. There's some elite quarterbacks, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The NFL and the USFL are equivalent? Absolutely. It's obvious that there's some handful of guys that are better than the other, but the mass majority are.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. I would say, uh, stay in school, get your education. That's what I would say, but I mean...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's tough. It's not like it's walking the park now. You still got professional athletes. It's hard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And if it makes sense for you, but that's something you will have to figure out yourself with your family and stuff like that. But, I...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You gotta have some type of goal and work towards it, whether it's just to play football on TV or...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My thing now is to be fast, be as quick as possible. Uhm, but yeaah, I've lifted a lot of weight in my past life, for sure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's gotten to a point that I had to like stop doing curls in college cause my arms are kinda short and the ball wouldn't fit comfortable in my arms. So like, I've gotten to a point like, okay, I don't really need this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I wouldn't say, you always can improve and maintain, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think he just rapped that twice. Chubbs is different now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think the best back in the league is Nick Chubb, honestly. Uhm, Nick Chubb, uh, I like Alvin, I like Dalvin, I like guys like that that can make something out of nothing and always a home run hitter type of thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think, uh, draft, draft, draft week, you can just, just happen, uh, for all the guys that didn't get drafted, didn't get signed. Keep your head up, man. Control what you can control. Don't let anyone, uh, put a title on your worth, uh, just stay ready for your opportunity. And if it's not supposed to happen, it'll happen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, he's done everything. Uh, Candy Crush is for all ages, not just old people. I love Candy Crush. And, uh, Pittsburgh Marlars will not beat the New Jersey Generals. Uh, I mean.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think so. Uhm, what else? What else is there?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You guys in Cleveland should learn how to drive in the rain because it rains all the time so you should really be used to it. Uhm, what else is there?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well here we are everybody, and I'm not gonna be depressed, I'm not gonna be sad. The Cavs don't deserve it guys. The Cavs are garbage. They played like garbage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're a gutless basketball team and that's, you know, pretty much sums it up but we'll get your thoughts on it in a minute.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We, here we are, it's a Thursday edition of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show with G and Jason and me. And a lot to get to today. Uh, Terrell Brandon, some people call him Brandon Terrell. I was expected to join us a little later in the show.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, we'll, we'll hope for the best there. I'll have to call them by the proper name and we'll talk about the guardians. We will talk about Yana. So the bucks getting eliminated and all that. But guys, uh, before we jump into all of it, let's get to my bet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By the way, I'm making people a lot of money out there, so I'm expecting tips from all you who are making money off me. Go ahead, Mike.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mike cannot handle a double bet day. Uh, I had the, uh, Diamondbacks yesterday, minus a run and a half, right? That was my pick. And they won by two, correct. They won two to nothing. So it took, it was closer than I thought, but good enough. Two bets today. I like the Pirates plus, Pirates are playing great baseball. One of the biggest surprises in all the big leagues. Eventually they'll come back to earth, but not quite yet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One guy I really believe in in the Pirates, I believed in him for a long time and he's finally pitching like the guy I thought he would be. Mitch Keller, top prospect, struggled his first few years in the big leagues. Right now he's pitching great.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Dodgers are favored, even though the games in Pittsburgh, even though the Pirates are playing better, and even though Mitch Keller's been real good. I like the Pirates to win, I'll take the run and a half, but I think they win outright. And, uh, eep.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even though he spelled white socks wrong, uh, that's why I'm going against it. Uh, white socks, white socks, no white socks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 1045. That's true. It was late. You know, listen, I'm very timely in general guys. You know that, but I was a little late today. It wasn't, was it 1045? He said the bet about 1035.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, anyway, I'm taking the Rays. They've been winning every game. I think they'll win by two. The White Sox are absolute trash.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, one of the biggest surprises in the league. I think the Cardinals are the biggest disappointment. But anyway, baseball later guys. Let's get right into it. And let's begin with, with.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The biggest topic. Who do you blame the most for the calves


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, okay guys, you know, Jason, you said this was hard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I understand what you're saying. It's hard because...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everybody played like crap, and everybody shares in the blame. However, to me it's easy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because although I can give a percentage of blame to everybody, you are 100% right. The biggest culprit is not the coach. It's not the roster construction, which both played a role in this. It is Donovan Mitchell. There's no doubt about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Cavs traded every asset they had. Not some, not most. Well, I guess most because they still have Darius Garber and Evan Mobley.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But besides Paris Immobile, they literally traded every asset they had.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he was supposed to be a difference maker. The Cavs, if they didn't make this trade, would have been a good team this year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Would they have, could they have done any worse? I guess they could have gotten swept. Okay, well does that matter? They really couldn't have done any worse. If they had Colin Sexton, who sucks, and Larry Markkinen, who had a great year, they would have been just as good. Maybe they would have won less games in the regular season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And maybe they would have been a five seat or a six seat or whatever, I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe they would have been in the play-in. I don't think they would have. I still think they would have made the playoffs. Yea, they would have. And would have done just as much as they did here. You brought in Donovan Mitchell because he's supposed to be the big swing and you know what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I heard everybody go bananas for this guy. Score 71. I don't give a shit about his 71 freaking points. 71, who cares? The regular season don't mean squats.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nothing. It's meaningless. If they bring this exact team back next year, I'm sorry, I'm derelict in my duty as a sports guy, but I will not watch the Cavs play in the regular season. I'm telling you right now, if they make changes, I'll watch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If they don't make any changes, I'm not watching a game. If that leaves me unaided, I will read, read caps and see highlights. I won't watch a game. That's it. I have no interest. The regular season means nothing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His performance this year means nothing. I don't want to hear all these idiotic debates that we and every other nitwit in this town had all season. Why is Donovan Mitchell not in the MVP conversation? Why is he not on NBA first team? Who gets a freaking crap?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He sucked when it mattered the most. He was absolute trash. I don't want to hear about roster construction. Yes, that played a role. It shouldn't have mattered in this series. It shouldn't have mattered. Jalen Brunson played like a star. He did. Julius Randall is the second best player in the Knicks. He sucked the whole series, pretty much. He did not, he was a non-factor, a minor factor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Obviously Hart played well and the two big guys played well, but Jalen Brunson was the star. He put the Knicks on his back and he carried them to a championship. That 23.2 per game is completely misleading because of game one. He was great in game one. He was good in game two and he was


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Beyond trash in 3, 4 and 5. This guy doesn't belong in a superstar conversation. He doesn't belong in an MVP conversation. The only series he won I think was in the bubble, right? Isn't that the only time he's ever won a series?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Disgusting, and Donovan Mitchell is without a doubt to blame. And if you're at home, listen to me, you people on YouTube, I'll look at this camera, and that camera, and that camera. If you're playing, JB, listen, JB don't know what the hell he's doing. Let's be honest. Alright? That's a little too strong. JB didn't do a great job. It's not that he doesn't know what he's doing. He didn't do a great job. Late in the game,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When they purposely fouled and Darius Garland fouled out of the game, that was a major failure in coaching. The game was 99% over. You can't let your second best player foul out. He should have been pulled out of the game there when he fouled out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On defense, you're purposely fouling, you take them out of the game, some, you foul, and then after the first free throw, you bring, you bring Darius back in for offense. That was a major flaw. And there was some mistakes he made, no doubt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But honestly, first of all, in this town, all we do is ever blame the coach for most things. We apologize for the players, and that's a soft mentality.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The players lost this game. Blame Jane, Jane B deserves some blame, and so does roster construction. But the players, more than any other sport, Jason, you know this better than anybody, it's all about the players in the NBA, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All about the players. The Cavs had won this series. We'll be lauding JB for his brilliant moves. No. It's all about the players. And more importantly, it's all about the stars. And the stars played like shit. That's it. Simple. End of story. All their four best players were all crap.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I'm not gonna get into detail on this because we'll talk a little more about it later. The eight seed heat beat the Bucs in five games.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The seven seed Hawks, who most people thought would get swept by the Celtics, maybe a gentlemen sweep at best, forced that series to six, playing a great fourth quarter to come back and extend that series.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, we'll get to that in one second, just really quick, and then we'll switch gears.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's gonna be a lot to get to. All right. And to your point that you just said, Mike, as we get to the front court here, Jared Allen and Evan Mobley were out rebounded by Mitchell Robinson over the last two games.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ridiculous. Here, have another water. You're going to need it. I'm definitely going to need it. So here's the thing, G just went off about, you can't play Jarrett.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can't believe how bad these guys were. I can't even make a case, you think about their four best players, I can't make a case for any of them doing anything good. But, specifically on the frontcourt guys, when it comes to changing it up, yes, it feels like right now, okay, you gotta, you change it up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here's the problem. If they try to trade Jared Allen,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why would anybody give up anything? He's making 20 million a year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jason, what are they going to do about this front court? Is it possible to make a change? And if so,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By the way, there were a lot of people with the trade deadline. Our fans do this all the time. They do this with the guardians all the time. They're like, well, let's not mess with the chemistry. Now the Cavs didn't have anything to trade anyway, so I don't know that they could have gotten anything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But like, this, this whole don't mess with the chemistry is stupid. It showed you once again, in terms of specifically of the front court guys, I think the Cavs are in a tough spot. It doesn't feel like, yes, it is somewhat prisoner of the moment to say,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, we don't want to bring this frontcourt back the same because they played so badly in the series. That's a little unfair. In the end though, I still think what you said, the paint's too clogged. It would make sense to move on from Jared Allen. However, I just don't see a...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But let me ask you this about Evan Mobley, Jason, because we've all thought


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As opposed to if Donovan wasn't here, there would have been a lot more of Darius going to Mowgli.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right, and I would agree if of their four big four, if you will, I'd blame him the least of the four guys, but he didn't play well, but he has the most, I would give him the most excuse for not playing well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By the way, I'm gonna take everybody behind the scenes, alright?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mikey McNuggets is in my ear, he's twice in the last 30 seconds. Said, Garland, he's like Garland and Mitchell next, Garland. I am running the show here, Mikey McNuggets. You should be aware that when I run the show, I know what the hell I'm doing around here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I knew we were starting with, uh, with the who's to blame. I was ready to transition to the big guys. I was ready to transition to the guards. You don't want to whisper it in my ear. I got to take care of. We got, we got to get to Kevin Love.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's next. That's coming up next. Okay. Yeah, you mentioned it briefly, I want to get back there too. Let's talk about the guard specifically. Obviously they were disappointed. It is interesting that, I know Garland's a little older than Mobley, but


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because Garland was better in the regular seat, like, it was his first playoff too, we're not giving him a pass at all, even though he's not much older than nobody.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's older. He's been in the league longer. I'm not giving him a pass either. I'm just saying, I think it's funny because it was his first experience. So you can understand his struggles a little. I would also blame him less, certainly less than Donovan Mitchell. And I would actually blame him less than Jared Allen, even though more is expected of him. But Jared Allen was awful. At least, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you have two essentially two point guards, two guys that are both dominant players.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know if there was any frustration by either player as this, you know, during the season or in the playoffs, whatever, it seemed like they get along really well. I don't know. Uh, we do, there's been this, we've constantly talked about at some point, Donovan Mitchell is going to want out of here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, what do we think about this backcourt, how poorly they played, and what the expectation for them is going forward?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dan is obviously not involved in the team. The same way, the same way, obviously involved, but not, not to the same degree as you pointed out. Does that change the dynamic? I don't think so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If they talk, I would assume they might try to talk to Donovan Mitchell about an extension this offseason? Is that something they could, they would do?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And in terms, in terms of, well, you're admitting a mistake. Okay, sometimes you make a mistake. Is, is it better to move on from the mistake? Not that Donovan Mitchell's a mistake because he's a great player and he didn't have a good series.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We all thought it was the right thing to do. I still think it was the right thing to do at the time. But it may now be, like, if you say, well, if you don't trade them, if you trade them now, you're admitting a mistake. Well, if you wait one more year, you're saying, well, let's try to win a championship next year. Does anybody think the Cavs are gonna win a championship next year?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know what it is. He's gonna have to do some real good work this offseason to make this team better. Guys.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But let me, but Jason, let me ask you this though, like you just mentioned the Heat. That's a, like Eric Spolster is one of the best coaches in the league, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think it's a short thing that JB should be fired. I do think he's probably going to be back, but at least behind the scenes, if there's a better, if there's a guy you think is a better coach, shouldn't that be considered? Of course.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Number one, number two is getting back to your caveat about his defense. But real quick, I think your statement about five at the top, five at the bottom, I think that's actually in every sport. I think they're really, maybe some of yours at six. That's probably true. But most of the coaches in most sports are somewhere in the middle. Now, let's get back to what you said. There's a caveat about his defense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Same thing with football. Same thing with football. You gotta have the offense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think their starting five is good. It's not the best, but it's good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the rest is fair. I mean, the coach is middle of the road, it seems.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I guess you were. I was saying. But most of us were living in La La Land thinking this team was going to be really good. Did we overrate the talent? We tend to overrate our own players.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We were convinced by the Cavaliers and by his play when they took away his minutes that he was done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Clearly he's not done. He's being used wisely by a great coach. Five threes last night. Has had big games in the series, including last night. On a roll. He has the champ. Close out game. The championship DNA. He would have been the best outside shooter, you know, besides the big guys. They made a huge mistake. Who do you blame for that more, Kobe or JB?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're both, you're both right, you're 100% right, you're 100% right, there's gotta be a guy in that organization that says, I don't give a crap that you're unhappy, here's what we're gonna do, and we're gonna keep playing. If you don't like it, tough, whatever. The Cavs don't have that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, great hour conversation about the Cavs. We'll do some more NBA later when we talk about some of the other series.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're going to, in a moment, switch gears and talk some guardians. But first let's talk to Mikey McNugget.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I gotta do a few shoutouts, including one that's really important.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wanna say, uh, a special shout out to- To the Butcher. What's that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I'm going to do a shout out to everybody at University Hospital Simon Cancer Center, uh, that's been working with my wife. My wife, for those who don't know, has leukemia, um, she received, she's been, uh, doing chemo for a couple years. We thought we would pass the worst of it and, uh, unfortunately,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They had to take another step and she had to have a bone marrow of what's now called the stem cell transplant. She had the transplant done Tuesday, uh, and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It went great. Obviously, you know, whether it's going to work long term, we won't know for a while, but so far so good. Uh, she's doing great. She was actually doing laps around the hospital floor today. And so, especially our doctor, Dr. Ben Tomlinson is a great guy, but really it's the nurses, the amazing nurses.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then don't get there due. The doctors are, you know, the big shots.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the nurses, all over, all the nurses that take care of people, it's amazing. But specifically to the nurses that work on the third floor of the Simon Cancer Center with very serious disease there, leukemia and lymphoma and stuff like that. And a shout out specifically, and I hope I don't forget any names, to Chase, to Matt, to Julie, to Nina, to


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, help my wife. They take care of her. They treat her like gold. They're so amazing. They do an incredible job. And folks, people ask me all the time,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Friends, family, whatever. What can I do? What can I do? And I appreciate all the offers people have. Offer me meals and this and that. I have such a great community and I love all the people here. And it's so special to me. It's so meaningful to me. What I will ask everybody out there to do, and I'm going to ask everybody out there to do going forward. Donate blood. If you can. Donate platelets.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, do the testing for stem cells and bone marrow to see if you could potentially be a donor for someone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Especially if you're young, if you're listening and you're in your twenties.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Be the match.org. Be the match, yeaah. Please. And, and again, the people at Sideman, they do incredible work. Thank you so much. Uh, alright, on a much less serious note, let's talk about the Guardians. Tanner Bybee yesterday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I know Jason, you know, we thought like he wouldn't be up for a while. And I love that the guardians are like, Hey, our pitching is not good enough. We got to be aggressive right here. Now. I know Frank Kona said there's no guarantee he's staying in the rotation, but he's got to stay in the rotation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now if he starts getting blown up, maybe they'll change their mind. But the first starts for Allen and Bybee who are two of their better pitching prospects and Bybee is higher on the list than Allen. Much higher. But Allen is still a good pitching prospect too. It's one start.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it was against the Rockies yesterday. You don't want to get carried away. But he was very impressed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I'll tell you, there are some pitchers that look like they're throwing harder than they are, and again, it's one start, but that's the way, that was the first time I'd ever, cause I'd seen the highlights from the minors, and obviously I'd been obsessively following him, but I had seen him pitch a whole game, and you're right, I'm watching it on TV, and I'm like, that looks harder than that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, you don't know where, like, the ball, he's got such good movement on all his pitches.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's right, and you know, we're all, you know, I'm mostly complimentary as you are of the Guardians. My only criticism of them ever, pretty much, is when they don't spend money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or they slow down a guy's call up to the majors to get him the seventh year. They didn't do it with Quan, they haven't done it with Bybee, they haven't done it with Allen this year. It's good to see. I like that it's like, hey, and first of all, the division sucks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The twins are fine, and they're, you know, they're alright. They're not running away with anything. This is their division to win, and they could, they could have just said, you know what, we're fine, let's be patient for a while. And they didn't do that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's fascinating and another thing by seeing these guys up and, and if we see, if we end up seeing Alan and by me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For the whole year at this point and maybe Gavin Williams for three, four months.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is that if you do, cause we, you know, we talk uncomfortable conversations about Donovan Mitchell getting traded at some point. Shane Bieber's getting traded this offseason.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's just no way around that. They're, they're not, they're not in the business. Like they may let Rosario walk because you're not getting a ton back from him in the trade anyway. Shane Bieber is not walking though. So they're trading him this off season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, I think he will. I think he will too. And he hasn't been terrible, but he's not been great. I think he will figure it out. But if these guys come up and pitch well, well then you even feel better about like, okay, we can trade Bieber and get, you know, whatever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Terrific trade. Uh, yeaah they did and they'll probably do the same for Bieber.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I'll tell you, it's so funny because it's the day of the draft in Cleveland.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And now it's like irrelevant because, and even if the Browns had a first round pick, we'd be talking about it more obviously. But, you know, they're not looking for a quarterback right now, so it's a different thing. However, you know, I'm interested because I just like the draft. I hate the lead up to the draft and the mock drafts. I find that stuff now so tiring and boring.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm just like, right, I'm like so done with all these, because everybody's a genius now with their mock draft. But I like the actual draft and I like, I'm interested to see where players go. Selfishly for me, I'm interested to see what the Bengals do with their late first round pick. Could they take Jamar Gibbs or running back?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Could they go with a tight end? So I'm curious to them. And I am interested to see what the Steelers do, what the Ravens do. The Steelers end up getting Joey Porter Jr., which would be quite fascinating if that happens. So I'm into it, but I mean from a Brown's perspective.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, we're all going to be stunned beyond belief if they end up trading back into the first round. 0.0% chance. From a Brown's perspective, obviously there's no interest, but I have interest in the draft tonight. Do you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think there's a good chance the Bengals would take Jameer Gibbs in the first round. Even though they haven't taken a running back in the first round in about 20 years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When's the last running back? Did Johnna Carter? Is that the last running back? I think he was the second to last. They took somebody a couple years after him. Uh, I can't remember who it is though. Whatever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So. By the way, I'm answering this and I think Jason kind of is also without being as obvious as me. Like the people who pick the NCAA tournament based on uniforms. That's basically.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, yeah, so. I'm saying yes, because I think the deal is a deal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, you know, these guys, I don't know most of these guys. I am actually looking forward to it. So, uh, Jason said you're not. I'm not. I'll have it on, like, whatever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some veteran movement that we could see today, could see, mentioned this yesterday, DeAndre Hopkins could get traded, Buddha Baker could get traded, uh, Dalvin Cook, there's been rumors about him getting traded.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think the Browns are done making trades for veterans. Yeaah. They don't have, you know, they're not giving up. I mean they don't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Again, they have two thirds, two fourths, two fifths.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, and I'm not going to be here tomorrow, but, but uhm, I'm expecting them to package some of those picks to potentially, if there's a guy they like, mid second round, late second round, or even earlier in the third round.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It would, it might make some sense to target them with some extra picks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, yeaah, I mean, it's funny cause, but even tomorrow, even though I won't be here, uh, I don't know who's on, who's on, who's on tomorrow with, uh, Brad, I think it's you, Brad Jason. No, I'm not in. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so, but even, like, the Browns won't have, still will not have made any picks, obviously, and it'll all be over the weekend. So, Monday's show, uh, will be a big one. I think it's probably me, you, and Jay on Monday. Uh, but that'll be a big show, cause we'll be recapping all of the Browns draft picks, cause we wouldn't have had any time to talk about them during the week. Alright, Mikey.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tyrell, well, we'd be doing better if the Cavs hadn't played like such garbage for the last week. Were you surprised how poorly they played? Against the Knicks?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you did get traded, and that was like a 10 player trade or whatever, Sean Kemp, and obviously there's a lot of guys involved in that trade. What was your...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like at the time, what was your reaction to it? What would you think? Because you had been an All-Star. You know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Getting back to the current team and the current Cavs, obviously we're all going crazy. We're frustrated and what do we do? Do they fire the coach? Do they change the team?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What do you think the Cavs should do? I mean, obviously, even if, even if you believe we're overreacting, there are some things that need to be done. The bench is not good enough. It's going to be challenging. But, uh, in terms of their four top players, Garland, Mitchell, Mobley, Allen, would you make any changes there?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or would you stick with those four and try to change the rest of the group?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, come on now. None of us can choose.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hakeem Olajuwon, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And in New York, no blood, no foul. Now these guys, they cry about everything now. Everything they're crying, they're looking for a foul.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean it was so, between, between the, the, the, you know, obviously you guys had a great team. The Pistons.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, the, the Celtics, the Lakers, the 76ers, I mean, and then eventually the Rockets and the Bulls. And even, even to the, to that Knicks-Heat rivalry, which was nasty, the Pacers, you know, like it, it was so many great rivalries.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And now it's just, I don't know, I mean, the NBA's still good, I just don't like it as much, cause I like-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think, I think those, those Patrick Ewing, Knicks teams, they had a lot of players that elevator did not go to the top of the floor. They had some bad dudes. They were fun to watch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who was the best trash talker you played against? Definitely not Curly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Terrell, we appreciate it man. Thanks for taking the time. Thanks for getting up early. We'll talk to you again soon, man. Be well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's embarrassing. I guess I'll give him credit for honesty.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I couldn't go, of course, uh, but I'm here, I'm now in Tokyo, and I found out where they're living, which is right down here, so let's go say hi. Anybody there?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Inside the politics of a city trying to change


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I mean, I grew up in Newark. I know that there are police officers who have done things that they have no business doing. I know that. I've seen them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hanging out, you know, with a lot of guys, you got searched, you got stopped, you got put on the wall, you got put on the ground. And I know how that, how that feels is traumatizing. And being black in America, I know that our relationship with the police department has been untenable at best. So, it is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, not surprising in the fact that people will find that police officers have violated people's rights, their constitutional rights, uh, in a community. Uhm, the only difference is now we're going to do something about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To me is the fact that overwhelmingly it happens to one specific group of people is what makes it racism.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It didn't get this way in five years or ten years. And it's not going to take five or ten years to get out of it. And then you got generational poverty, generational unemployment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At the end of the day, there's no tax base like the way you need it and you're trying to run the state's largest city.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In those kinds of conditions, this is what we dealing with, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes ma'am. That's not pretty efficient, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The series of bullets. They sitting in the precinct, nobody heard any of that. You saying they sat in there because they were afraid? No, I'm not saying that. What are you saying?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Unfortunately, it's not a very easy process. It's difficult. Or any change is difficult. You know, especially in an entrenched institution like a police department.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, there's gonna be level of denial. You're talking about people who have to admit, uh, that there was some wrongdoing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If they don't see that at all, then it's difficult to change them. And so most of the work is about


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How do you change the culture of police officers to prevent this?

[Assistant] But four of the last five losses have been by one run, so I haven't covered.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I'm still confident that in the long run, I'm up, I'm up $24 still.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Come summer, come later in the year, these one run losses are going to be a lot more lopsided.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think he shot in the second half. I think he had two free field goal attempts the entire second half. I found the free throw, uh, the free throw attempt though. That's Garland's stat. He had one assist, five turnovers. Now granted assist, you can make a pass if your teammate misses it. It could still be the right play. They missed a ton of shots.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, the bigs missed a bunch of potential assists for him. He didn't play good though. I found the free throw, Jay. I think you meant Mowgli. Yeah, I said Mitchell.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think they cut him, he's bounced around, he's also, uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it's too, uh, to be fair to JB, I think it's too early to know what a JB player is. Tibbido has been a head coach for over a decade in the NBA.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I do, I got two things real quick. Tomorrow, we're gonna, we're gonna attempt something. You know what? We've done Coach Tyvis on the iPad and break down some things.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna try going back to the last three possessions of the game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you can see on it, especially the rebound that Randall got.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not a single cab turned around and tried to hit a body. Not a single one. And I'm gonna, I said this to my coach. That was the game by the way. That was the game. That was the game. So I said that play to Coach Curly who played in the NBA.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We did a worst drill. He called it hamburger hell. No idea where the name came from, but it was three on two, three offensive players, two defensive players. The defense had to get three straight rebounds before they got out. And mind you, you know, some people got stuck with me. We had three, seven footers on the team, a six, nine kid, a six, eight kid. There's one kid shorter than me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In a rebounding draw, I don't care if you're seven foot. Okay, that's true. I'm five, nine. You're still close to the basket. The offense has the advantage already. So I sent it to coach Curly. Coach Curly broke it down with me. I'm going to try doing it tomorrow. Hopefully it works out with technology and the iPad doesn't always work.

[Assistant] The last, last point on the Cavs, G, and I'll let you start here and if you want to take it a little different way, by all means. But, we saw the Kings and some other teams in the league, equally young, first playoff experience, not kind of shy away from the moment. G, why do you think so many of the Cavs making their playoff debut were just not ready for that spotlight?

[Assistant] Do you think this makes the New York Cleveland series even that much more important? Winner now gets a potentials fight. Yep. At a shot in the Eastern Conference.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They won two or three, a lot of, you know, things that we can nitpick here, but one thing we do, one person we need to give credit for is Josh Bell after a start to the season. In one weekend series, he raised his batting average by no joke, legitimately a hundred points.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's up to 190 now. He does have a homerun.

[Assistant] I was two blocks away when the bomb went off. You were? It was 10 years ago. No kidding. You were going to school there, right? The finish line is two blocks away from Emberson. Wow. Could you hear that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, let me do the call of green real quick. Okay. Cause when we're gonna have a guest on any minute here, Matt Ains should join us, uh, talk a little baseball.

[Assistant] But the 12 o'clock lunch hour of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show is sponsored by Call of Gracie and the official NASCAR team of Northeast Ohio. If anyone doesn't know, Marathon Day in Boston is like a whole holiday. Everything shuts down. Is it called Patriots Day? Patriots Day, Marathon Monday. It's always on a Monday. They play the baseball game at 11. 11 as the marathon's going on. Right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not sure. Close enough, close enough. Not like right next to that way. Yeah, okay. But cause there's so much traffic and parking down. Right, right. That'd be a nightmare. Try to run past, uh, Rocket Morgan on a playoff game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're going to move on to the next topic. We're going to talk some Browns now and some general manager rankings brought to us by Lincoln Electric, now hiring for great jobs, welding, manufacturing, Lincoln Electric. Check them out.
