What basketball games did Tony discuss at the beginning?
Hey, it's Tony. On today's show, we will preview the Kentucky Derby with legendary horse racing expert Andy Beyer, and we'll talk to Josh Maurer, who started out as one of the first interns at PTI, the first intern at PTI, and now he's calling games for the Milwaukee Brewers, who are playing the Nats this weekend. But first, let's keep the sales weasels happy.
Previously on the Tony Kornheiser Show.
What a delight to have you on.
Thank you, Brian. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Tony. I hope you enjoy some wonderful basketball. And I think it would be great on the 1 a.m. SportsCenter tonight, you and Will Bond giving your take on the games of the day.
I would happily go on the 4 a.m. SportsCenter because I'm up.
The Tony Kornheiser Show is on now.
Now. As Jason Blazer writes from Orion or Orion, Michigan. Ah, the heralded 4 a.m. sports center where champions come to watch clips. Yeah, 4 a.m. SportsCenter. I am up. Wubon is up, too. Well, he's still up. He's still up. Right. And he's getting ready for nine other things. So we have a guest in the studio. Chan is with us today. Very happy to have Chan. I put his headset on. He's ready to go. Oh, yeah. Very excited. And we'll include him quickly after I do my rants. But you want to talk about Greg Garcia first?
Oh, yeah, Greg's got some shows he's going to be at this weekend. He's going to be performing at the St. Charles Funny Bone in St. Louis, or St. Louis, as you might say, featuring for a guy named Julian McCullough.
Who I'm sure is very funny.
Yes, two shows tonight, two shows tomorrow night, so head on by. If you're in St. Louis. If you're in St.
Louis. It's a lovely city.
Yes, St. Charles Funny Bone.
You know, the birthplace and home of Charles F. Berry.
Yes.
St. Louis, Missouri. Yes. Big, bright, beautiful moon last night. First time in four or five months that I was able to see it at its top. We had a clear night last night. It was beautiful. Did the boys see it at all?
As I told you last night, we had one boy dealing with a temperature. So that was priority number one was bringing the 102 fever down, which we were successful in that endeavor. So he did not see the moon.
Okay.
The other two? Yeah, they saw the moon.
Okay. Well, you know, two out of three ain't bad. I've heard that somewhere. I went to high school. Good line. Two out of three ain't bad. I'm going to deal with the basketball issue. The worst game I've ever seen in a playoff game was last night. The Knicks at Atlanta, Knicks destroyed Atlanta. I had moved away from the television set. I was paying no real attention to it. When I got back from walking the dog, They showed the score. It was the second quarter. It was like 62 to 20. It was the second quarter. They went up by 50 in the second quarter. They were up by 60 in the third quarter. An incredible embarrassment for the NBA. Garbage is absolute garbage. And it was a, you know, it was a train wreck. So you had to watch for a while.
And then I was texting back and forth with Wilbon about it. And I said, it's cruel to watch anymore. And I'm stopping. I just don't want to watch anymore. The score of that game surprised me. The result of that game. The Hawks won the fourth quarter. Okay. The Knicks were, by the way, if you paid careful attention, were taking as much time in the 24-second clock as they could to hold it down. You know, to just get out of the possession without creating something in six seconds to get the ball back. They were actually trying to be kind. Atlanta was terrible. It's a terrible embarrassment for the league. It is. The other two games stunned me. The winning team stunned me. I did not think Philadelphia would beat Boston in Game 6, even though it was in Philadelphia.
I did not. I thought Philadelphia had its great game in Game 5 in Boston. Now I think if you're a Celtics fan, now I think you have to seriously consider that when Jason Tatum got back, something changed on that team, and they may not be able to hold off Philadelphia. And Philadelphia is not very good. It's not very good. And I thought Boston was very good. So that surprised me.
