Speaker 1 (00:07):
All right, we've got the Steve Kerr with comments. And
I'm a Steve kurfan. I've always been a Steve Kirk fan.
I thought he was a great spur. I think he's
a really decent, good human being. I know there's a
lot of you out there that don't like his politics,
but too bad. I don't care what your politics are.
(00:28):
If you disagree with me and I disagree with you,
we can still be friends. But he apparently sent a
letter an email to Adam Silver before the season began,
and he said, the NBA season is too long, that
we need to reduce the games by from eighty two
to sixty five. If you do that, you're either you're
(00:49):
gonna you're knocking off you're gonna knock off seventeen games. Now,
which seventeen games are you knocking off? Because you're gonna
play teams in the East twice and you're going to
play teams in the West. Could you reduce the games
only in your own conference? I guess that's an opportunity
because I think that you'd still want teams from the
(01:09):
East to come to your building once a year and
you go to theirs, and maybe you reduce the number
of games that you play against Western Conference opponents. But
the biggest deal about this is that there's no owner
out there in sports that's going to reduce the number
of times that he can open the gates and charge
people to come in and watch his product.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
It's just not feasible.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
I'm going to go back to what I have been
talking about for twenty five years. Change the schedule. I
don't care if we play basketball in the fourth of July.
What else are we doing. I don't care if the
season can end or the season can still in. Let's
go back to playoff games, maybe reducing the first round
of three out of five. But we changed that a
(01:53):
few years ago so that we can make more playoff revenue.
And the players want more playoff revenue, and so the
way that we get it is to every series four
out of seven.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Let's go.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Let's start the season October first instead of October eighteenth
or nineteenth. Twenty seven weeks three times a week is
eighty one games.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Somewhere along the line.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
You can play four games, and during the All Star
Week you only play one. Let's not take five or
six days off after the All Star break, you play
the All Star game on Sunday, We're back to work
on Wednesday or Thursday. If you're gonna sprace the games
out and the league knows what they're gonna be able
to say are marquee games and those that are not
(02:36):
marquee games. But the marquee games that are on Saturday
or on Friday or on Sunday afternoon play non marquee
games during the week. So if you want to rest,
it's when the Lakers are playing the Wizards, because the
Wizards certainly don't care who's playing, or how they're playing,
or when they're playing, or if they're playing. So that's
a way that we get this done. And there's if
(02:59):
you started the game games of the season on October
tenth and you finished the second week in April like
they do, I think that's twenty eight weeks. You could
play twenty seven weeks three times, and you could play
four times in one week and get the season in.
I think you'd have reduced load management. The times that
players do load manage would be in games that really
(03:20):
are lopsided as far as the who's the favorite and
who's not. That doesn't mean that the underdog can't win
those games, but This is a simple fix, and it
goes back to working with your arena operators. And I'm
sure that if a person that did the schedule in
the NBA for so long could do it on a
spreadsheet at his dinner table. And that's how the NBA
(03:43):
schedule was done for years. It was a husband and
a wife and they got paid like two thousand dollars
and they sat down on a weekend and they hammered
out all the arena availability dates and they figured out
the schedule and it worked every year. I think they
do it electronically now, but there's no reason why they
can't do it it.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
AI could figure this out, what.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Are the dates that are available, put it into the system,
run the algorithm, and spit out some schedules, and then
have every team evaluate their schedule and see if they
have any issues with it. We get that schedule in August,
it's probably it's probably already been decided for next year,
and teams are going to have two or three months
to go over it and make sure that there doesn't
seem to be anything that's or they have four games
(04:26):
in a row at home or something like that, or
are they're playing too many back to backs at home
and too many back to backs on the road. They're
looking over everything to make sure it works with or
their home arena dates, just to make sure they didn't
overlook anything, and they tweak it two or three times,
and then they finally have some kind of a schedule.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
It's not a hard process.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Are you telling me that the athletes of today are
less conditioned, are less strong, are less in shape than
when Steve Kerr played, or when Magic Johnson played. When
Magic Johnson a Bird played, they didn't have charter airplanes.
They flew commercial and they got up at five o'clock
(05:06):
in the morning for a six thirty flight to wherever
they were going next and played that night. And the
players still played more games than they're playing. Now, you've
got a private didjet you're flying what you got thirty
guys on the plane that are there to support you,
from physio guys to strength and conditioning coaches to massage specialists.
You got everything at your fingertips to make yourself better
(05:27):
to be able to play the next game. And yet
you whind the season is too long. The season is
eighty two games. Any season that's less than that is
not a real season. Unless it's a strike year or
a lockout year like we experienced in nineteen ninety nine.
It's time that the players start respecting the game instead
of respecting what the game gives them. There are too
(05:48):
many players in the league that don't give a damn
about basketball. They just care about the seven figure salary
they get so they can go buy nice things and
show off and put it on Instagram. There's four hundred
and fifty plays in the league. I think there's one
hundred that care, and of those hundred, there's about fifty
that matter, and the rest are just there to get
a check and going. We're seeing the same thing with
(06:09):
nil in college sports. Players don't care about loyalty to
their team. They don't care about loyal to their coach.
What am I getting paid? Show me the Benjamins. I'm
ready to get paid. I don't even care if I
go to a team where I sit on the bench.
I don't even go to a care if I go
to a team where we're five and twenty seven, Just
pay me and I'll be fine. I can go buy
things and I can become an Instagram success overnight. We
(06:32):
got to get back to finding players that love playing basketball,
and if you do, you want to play more than
eighty two games every year. When the season ends and
you lose your conference tournament. In college basketball, you get
back home and the coach will tell you, okay, we
have exit interviews tomorrow. We want to get your plans
for next season. YadA, YadA, YadA. Or they say, but no,
(06:54):
we're not going to make the NCAA tournament, but the
NIT might pick us, and the CBI team might pick us,
or one of those other tournaments may pick us. Stay
by your phones. We'll let you know what the schedule is.
And every time there's about four or five players on
every team. There's about what or two players in every
team that can't wait for the next game, and if
they could play tomorrow, they'd be suited up and ready
(07:15):
to go. And there's about five to ten players that, man,
the season's over. I don't want to play any more basketball.
Why are we playing these stupid tournaments? I want to
go on spring break. And it's because they kind of
like the game, but they don't love it. We need
more players that love it. And I don't think that
you if you had sixty five games, players would still
set out ten and only play fifty five. So yeah,
I understand that the season is too long, but it's
(07:37):
not changing unless the ticket prices go up and player
salaries and coaches salaries go down.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
Here's the one time I've never been able to use
this andy, but I can use this now. You know,
not only does not only does Steve Kerr hat the
workers you know at whatever the hell it's called or Chase, yeah,
Chase Center. But why isn't anybody thinking of the children, Because,
(08:04):
like you've mentioned, we've talked about it with Kobe, Kobe
didn't want to sit out because there was always some
one random kid that might be the one game of
the year that that kid and his mom or dad
or whoever got to bring him to the game, and
just he didn't want to disappoint that one kid.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Absolutely.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
So now you're saying that you want to take.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Away seventeen potential games for a family to take their
you know, kid or kids, brothers, whoever, you want to
rob them of that opportunity. Okay, Steve Kerr, Fine, whatever
you hate kids, are you going to reimverse all of
the vendors, all of the ushers.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
I'm going to look at those I'm going to be
really selfish here right now because I can. I'm talking
about the broadcasters. They typically get paid by the game.
We don't want less games, we want more. Yeah, you know,
I don't want to if you're if you're calling games,
I don't want sixty five.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
I want eighty two. And I hope you played twenty
eight games in the playoffs. Yeah, you're gonna reinverse all
of your crew. You're gonna reinverse your broadcast crew, Steve Kirk, No,
shut your mouth and just coach basket.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
And you're gonna have seventeen fewer games.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
And that's seventeen less paychecks for your radio and TV guys,
and seven and oh, by the way, that's either eight
or nine less games for the vendors that are are
waiting on their fans at courtside, and the ushers and
the see and the all the people that work a game.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
When when UTSA lost to to UH East Carolina in
the tournament, I thought they were gonna win that game.
I was like, Okay, we're gonna be here another day.
And then they lost in the last two minutes, like
they did one hundred times this year. It seemed like
and I'm like, man, I don't get to call it
a basketball game till November.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Yeah, I want to.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
At least want one or two more. I'm gonna be
selfish here, but no, this is this is just another
one of these pipe dreams. It's never gonna happen. And
there's no way the owners are going to reduce baseball
from one sixty two. If they're gonna do anything, they're
going to increase it. Look at the NFL. The NFL
has increased already from sixteen to seventeen in recent years,
(10:11):
and by in two or three years or less, they're
going to be at eighteen. And that's because they want
to play more, they want to get paid more, they
want to make more money, and the fans want to
see more basketball. Yeah, exact, more football or more whatever.
We're not reducing the schedule.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
Yeah, those seventeen games. Here's the other thing. How are
you going to figure out and divide up? Okay, are
we going to just do nine home games and eight
away games? Or are we going to do visell They
have to make it sixty four sixty six. They sixty
five would not be the number you would assume, we
would assume. Yeah, but maybe either's the reason. That's the
problem with the NFL right now.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
Seventeen means somebody's playing only is playing one less home
game unless they have to play an international game, and
then really nobody And that's the thing in the NFL.
In seventeen, I'd make everybody play an international game.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
And that's the other stipulation as well.
Speaker 3 (10:59):
Is okay, you want to get rid of sixteen seventeen games. Yeah,
you're also getting rid of the international games.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
That's that's the international games and the Austin games. For
the Spurs.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Exactly, there were there were four games this year that
the Spurs did not get to play at home.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Well two, no, it was four, well yeah, two in
the Moody Center. Yeah, but it was only one in
France because they were the road team in the other game.
Speaker 4 (11:23):
I don't care. I still consider that.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
So they played thirty nine home games instead of forty two,
so it was really three home games.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
But they because they because.
Speaker 4 (11:31):
The Pacers lose out there.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
If the Pacers lost out on a home game, absolutely,
and at some point in the season these play the
fans are going to start are the teams are going
to start to wonder when they they miss a seed
by a game. Man, if we hadn't played in Mexico,
or if we hadn't played in Paris, or we hadn't
played in Austin, we might have won that game and
we'd be the number two seeds to the number three seed.
(11:53):
So no, play, I play, Yeah, play, you don't. We
don't want to see less basketball. We're fans of the game.
We want to see you play better, and we want
to see you space out. And the league can help
you by doing the three game a week maximum. It's
not rocket science. It's easy to do. They want less
games and shorter games.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Just yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
And then they want to get and then they want
to pay and get paid more.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
They want to get paid more.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
I don't see any players saying, y'all give up seventeen
games of my salary. No, no, I want the same salary.
I just want to play less. Jesus, you know, do
you like what you do? You play basketball for a living,
As Charles Barkley says, we're not digging ditches, we're not
pouring concrete, and we're not solving world problems.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
We're playing basketball. Go play basketball.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
It's working at sears Man, oh.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
By a lot all right, transfer portal News. Next, it's
the Andy average show on the ticket.
All right, we've got the Steve Kerr with comments. And
I'm a Steve kurfan. I've always been a Steve Kirk fan.
I thought he was a great spur. I think he's
a really decent, good human being. I know there's a
lot of you out there that don't like his politics,
but too bad. I don't care what your politics are.
(00:28):
If you disagree with me and I disagree with you,
we can still be friends. But he apparently sent a
