So that was chaotic. And we've had some tension in the room here because Mike Ryan and Amin, a real fight broke out. A real, I'm defensive about basketball. How dare you say hockey has become more important than basketball? And we all got uncomfortable around them shouting at each other. It escalated to MF-er for no reason whatsoever. Can we get Amin? Mike has left. I don't know where he is. I hope this doesn't spoil the holiday party that it doesn't seem anyone wants to go to. And Amin is still here. He's flown in like he was in Vegas. And he cares deeply about his sport. His sport is under attack, man. I Adam Silver, it wasn't that long ago that he was the leader of all leaders and he knew what how to be progressive in ways that would make the sport evolve.
And since then, basketball has been used as a political tool for its social commentary. And if you go woke, you go broke. NBA, you did all the social justice stuff and now look at your ratings. and look at how everyone says it's three-pointers or something else, Amin is defensive about his sport for good reason. Like, he cares deeply, cares more than most of the people consuming it.
Yeah, I mean, I would say I care deeply. I don't want to compare, but I think the problem is many of the arguments are straw man arguments. They're red herrings that you guys are following. Straw man. Thank you. But now we have that sounder. For example, I'll give you an example, Dan. You mentioned it yesterday when I was on the show briefly. But the Bulls and the Hornets played a game where 75 missed three-pointers. And everybody was like, oh, my God, this is why the NBA sucks. And I said, okay, so the headline is two horrible teams play against each other and play in a horrible game. And that's what we're judging the sport on. That's what we're doing? Why don't we judge it off Raiders, Panthers, and NFL?
We could do this across the board. There are bad teams in every sport, and bad teams play bad games. The reality is, everyone who's crying about the lack of a mid-range shot in the NBA, or the demise of the mid-range shot is, you look around the league. Does Steph Curry shoot mid-range shots? Yes or no? Occasionally. Not occasionally. He shoots quite a few. Kevin Durant? Yes. Devin Booker? Yeah. Jimmy Butler? Sure. Jason Tatum? Mm-hmm. Jalen Brown? Yep. Luka Doncic? Yeah. Kyrie Irving? Yes. Okay, so it seems to me the mid-range shots we got rid of was from the Eric Snows of the world. That's what you guys are missing.
Harless Boozer.
Yeah, you're missing all these guys who— I do miss Eric Snow.
I have to be honest with you. Yeah, you're not certain if it's going to go in.
You're pretty certain it's not going to go in.
But it'll get you eight assists, I mean.
Stugatz, you missed the Tyrone Hill pick-and-pop 18-footer? Yeah, I do, yeah. You miss Kurt Thomas on the baseline? I do, actually, yes, money, yep. Udonis Haslam, remember when he learned how to shoot? Yeah. See, like, Dan, that's the mid-range shots that got legislated out of our game, because basically what we told every role player is, hey, either you're going to,
