and it's beautiful. The guys are young and cute and fit. It's not just a game. It's your culture. I like watching it with my dad. It's a connecting force.

109.111 - 125.689 Javier Chicharito Hernandez

Everyone sees me as a football player, but before anything else, I'm human. Every single day, I'm still learning how to live with problems, mistakes, relationships, emotions, ever since I was born. This isn't a normal podcast. Everything here is spontaneous, real, and genuine. Just honest conversations about what it means to be alive.

Chapter 3: What were the highlights of the Knicks' championship victory?

508.487 - 532.597 Dan Patrick

And give credit to Jalen Brunson and the Knicks. It was every night, somebody else. But Brunson, you put up 45 in a closeout game. Now you're in elite company. And we also, we like to do this, oh, where do they rank in history? Where's this season? Well, they weren't great during the regular season. They were good. And look, did I think the Celtics were better than them? Yes, I did.

533.499 - 568.047 Dan Patrick

The Hawks, they're not good. Sixers, not good. I thought Boston was going to be the team coming out of the East. But we tend to look at, well, who did they beat? The last four NBA champions, these are the seeded teams. This is the teams they went through. So the Nuggets in 2023, they played an 8, a 4, a 7, an 8. The Celtics in 24, 8, 4, 6, 5. The Thunder, 8, 4, 6, 4. The Knicks, 6, 7, 4, and 2.

585.008 - 593.703 Dan Patrick

In other words, if we're going to bring up, well, the Knicks didn't play anybody. Well, did the Nuggets? No. Celtics?

0

594.885 - 594.945

Eh.

595.567 - 628.714 Dan Patrick

Thunder, I mean, the Knicks beat a 6, a 7, a 4, and a 2C. Okay, it's all right. But where do they rank? Oh, they're better than the 2017 Warriors who went 16-1. I would say no. That's not the argument that I wanted to have today. Instead of looking at something that was truly magical and enjoying that, The 0-1 Lakers went 15-1. Are they better than them? No, they're not.

629.235 - 633.28 Dan Patrick

The 83-76ers who went 12-1, are they better than them? No.

Chapter 4: How did the Spurs perform in the NBA Finals despite losing?

633.56 - 667.966 Dan Patrick

Now, in my opinion, I got Bulls in 1991, 15-2. No. Spurs in 99, 15-2. No. 89 Pistons, 15-2. The Knicks went 16-3. Are they one of the great teams of all time? Sure. I don't know how long the list is, but you get into this comparing, and I told you so, and you miss out on the enjoyment of all of this. And we've seen this with a lot of fans for some reason.

669.128 - 697.142 Dan Patrick

You know, when you get a surprise team, well, you didn't believe in them. Yeah, you're right. That's the beauty of sports. Like, I didn't think Hoosiers, they were going to win the title, the championship in the movie. I bet against them. But, you know, Indiana football, that's what makes this great. The Seattle Seahawks, I mean, that's why we watch. The Knicks, the Knicks won the title.

697.783 - 719.535 Dan Patrick

I don't care who they went through. And, yes, did they win by almost 15 points per game? That's impressive. That's an old-time record. 14.9 points, all of their victories. Enjoy it. Celebrate it. Although, don't torch a bus or do stupid things like people were doing. Yes, Marvin?

0

719.555 - 734.856 Mikael Bridges

And the thing about the teams that they swept, you've got to think about the 76ers. If I just say the names, they'd be the team with Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey, and Paul George. The Cavaliers, James Harden, Donovan Mitchell, Evan Mobley. They made them look like they couldn't compare to the Knicks.

0

735.157 - 774.204 Dan Patrick

The Knicks were 3-1 when they were down by 15 or more points in the postseason. The rest of the NBA with that stat, 6-58. Best and worst of the weekend, we'll get to your phone calls. But when you think about it, Spurs led for 72% of the NBA Finals, and they lost in five games. Remarkable. 877-3DP-SHOW. Tyler, sitting by, he'll take your phone calls.

774.364 - 796.011 Dan Patrick

Twitter handle at dpshow. The Hurricanes over my Golden Knights. They win the Stanley Cup four games to two. USA on Friday night over Paraguay. And they'll face Australia this upcoming Friday. Which poll question for the first hour of the program? Once again, former Villanova head coach Jay Wright will join us in about ten minutes.

796.582 - 826.207 Dan Patrick

Well, you mentioned it earlier, Dan, but best event of the weekend, Stanley Cup final, NBA finals, UFC 250 or the World Cup. It's a loaded weekend. Well, did you have a favorite? Oh, I thought you were going to. Well, the basketball, it's 53 years. And I remember when they won in 1970 and 1973, and they were on tape delay. But, you know, I've always been such a big basketball fan.

826.368 - 850.539 Dan Patrick

I would say that. I almost said that that would trump the other ones, but then, you know, what President Trump did at the White House with that crowd, I mean, that was a pretty crazy. I'm not a UFC fan, but I was watching the spectacle that it was. The hockey, you know, give credit to, you know, the Hurricanes to beat the Golden Knights in Vegas.

851.28 - 872.479 Dan Patrick

Somebody's got to go pick up John Tortorello's clothes there. They're still in Carolina. But I would say the NBA. I mean, the United States, I love what they, you know, it felt like, hey, we might have some offense here instead of let's keep it close and have Tim Howard, you know, play great defense as our goalie. This feels like, all right, maybe we've got a little bit of firepower there.
