Transcript
00:00 Shaquille O'Neal has picked the Dallas Mavericks to win this season's NBA championship.
00:08 Okay.
00:09 The Lakers alum.
00:10 What do you think of this?
00:12 Was he drunk?
00:13 I mean.
00:14 I think so.
00:15 Shaq is amazing, right?
00:17 And people, some people don't even like the NBA watch NBA on TNT just for Shaq.
00:22 Yeah, because he is that entertaining.
00:23 Right.
00:24 And he does have a home in Dallas.
00:26 He has some roots here.
00:28 And forever and ever and ever if you are an old Mavericks fan, it was kind of like, you
00:33 know, Clayton Kershaw is supposed to come back to the Rangers any day.
00:36 We are going to get him next year because he is from here.
00:38 It was always Don Nelson going, we are going to try to find a way to get Shaq.
00:40 We can't beat him.
00:41 We are going to try to get him.
00:42 So it was always like we thought we were, the Mavs were going to get him somehow.
00:47 But I don't understand this.
00:48 All that said, how does he look at the NBA, just the West for example, and go, yeah, the
00:55 Mavericks.
00:56 I mean, I looked right before we got on the air.
00:59 They're the ninth best odds at plus 2,500.
01:02 Yeah.
01:03 So he should put some money, put his money where his mouth is.
01:06 Pretty good.
01:07 It's a pretty good return.
01:09 I mean, Luke is amazing, right?
01:13 He lost some weight.
01:15 He's fit.
01:16 They brought back Kyrie, which that gives them two of the greatest ball handlers in
01:20 the history of the game.
01:21 Focus Kyrie.
01:24 Grant Williams they brought in.
01:25 They drafted Derek Lively and those are great moves.
01:28 But still, I think the Mavericks, if you get them to be honest, we want to make the playoffs.
01:35 That's goal number one.
01:36 Yeah.
01:37 It'd be great if we could host a first round series.
01:39 That would be amazing.
01:40 But I don't think they're going it.
01:42 Championship or bust here in Dallas.
01:44 It was just shocking.
01:45 It was out of left field, even for Shaq, who doesn't play baseball.
01:49 Not yet.
01:50 Not yet.
