This is the Dan Lebitard Show with the Stugatz Podcast.
This episode of the Dan Lebitard Show is presented by DraftKings.
DraftKings, the crown is yours. It's a record. It's a record.
Incredible composure.
Unbelievable.
Incredible.
We cracked back here. We got to be better next time.
Yeah, that's on us.
So I wouldn't normally reference something from Draymond Green's show, Draymond Green's podcast. And yes, Draymond Green, of course, has a podcast because if you don't have a podcast, you're a huge loser. Everybody's got a podcast. And Draymond Green had Anthony Davis on.
What are the favorite sports teams that never won a championship?
on his podcast recently, and among other things, like talking about when he found out he was traded and how all of that went down, I thought maybe the most interesting thing that I heard from Anthony Davis that came from that was Anthony Davis talking about how winning the championship in the bubble, he's not even sure, like you hear people say, oh, it doesn't count, it's not a real championship. You've never heard one of the players who were on the Lakers say that until now.
about that, right? Like, man, did I really win a championship? And you hear the noise, which to me is probably the hardest championship to ever accomplish. But for me, I also feel like I know I'm a champion, but I don't really... I want the real experience, right? So, which is why it's like, I want to compete so bad. I want to compete for a championship so bad because I want to go on the road. I want to go into, you know, now I'm Eastern Conference, now Western Conference team, you know, arena and got to win on the road. You know, I want that. I remember the playoff times in New Orleans and after COVID the playoff environments in L.A. where, you know, I mean, we played y'all in New Orleans and it's all red in there and the crowd is loud and they're cheering for you and everything like that.
So, like, I want that. And I've never had a chance to experience that in a final situation.
What does Anthony Davis say about the legitimacy of his championship?
Right. And for me, you know, it's like, man, did I win? Did I not win? Like, I know I'm listed as a champion, but it's like, I'm not sure. So it motivates me more now to like, you know what? I gotta, I gotta have that opportunity again.
By the way, the heat face Anthony Davis and the wizards tonight. Uh, I've never heard a, a player, uh, reference that champion a player who's on the lakers player who was awesome yeah that entire post they don't they don't especially in the finals in the finals he was incredible yeah i've never heard a player on that laker team talk like that that's pretty like he's doubting if he's even a real champion it had to be weird it has to be weird
It definitely, listen, appreciation during the COVID run there that we had the distraction and that they went forward with the playoffs in hockey as well as basketball. It counts for half. It is meaningful. It is listed on the resume. But let's not jive ourselves. Let's not jive the men in the mirror looking back at us.
How do fans perceive the importance of championships in sports?
It only counts for half. It was a different event. It is asterisked. It's almost like, not exactly, but a little World Baseball Classic kind of vibe. Like, yeah, that goes on the resume. Yeah, you won that title. But it's not the same as winning a regular NBA or Stanley Cup championship.
Are we going to do a sports show right now? I disagree because it was the same rules as everyone. In fact, I think a more bastardized version of sports was won the following year when they were playing in half-empty arenas and guys kept missing games, which is why I think that Suns-Bucks NBA Finals is what actually set the sport back. We move on. We have some breaking NBA news.
According to Sham Sharani, the Miami Heat are waving guard Terry Rozier today. According to ESPN, Rozier has been placed on leave by the NBA since October after federal indictments into sports gambling activity. Miami will open up a roster spot just in time to be the 10th seed and get bounced from the playoffs.
What is the story behind Dave Dameshek almost fighting Wayne Gretzky?
Wow, he included that last part? Yeah, it's crazy. Sorry.
What is the timing of that? Is it because they're going to pull one of those moves where you sign one of the G League players at the end of the season and it's some weird contract detail?
