Transcript of The Mothership vs. The Tartan Army (feat. Uptown Pale) | Hour 2

Against the Spread is presented by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours.

Chris. Oh, Scotland finally plays in Miami tonight. They've been here what feels like 3 weeks partying, having the time of their lives. The Tartan Army is in full force. I know Brazil is going to bring it strong tonight as well.

Brazil's got great fans.

They got great fans. Brazil versus Scotland. What an atmosphere it's going to be tonight at 6 PM in Miami. I'm going to take Scotland +1.5 goals with all that energy from the fans. I think they're going to compete. I'm not saying they're going to win. I see them losing by 1, but +1.5, you get to root for that fun atmosphere, root for Scotland. That's my pick. Scotland +1 today against Brazil.

Against us, Fred.

Against us, Fred. Against us, Fred. Hey, you know, World Cup fever is here. Join the Leprechaun Show and DraftKings Sports for Colombia versus Portugal. It is on Saturday, this Saturday, June 27th, 7:30 PM Eastern time at Lost Boy Clubhouse, 157 East Flagler Street in downtown Miami. Remember, DraftKings Sports now available in all 50 states. All 50. See you there. So trying to explain Chris brings up Scotland and the game tonight. They're playing here against Brazil. Great.

Oh, just got buzzed in my ear. There's been a challenge on the play earlier in the local hour. I'm going to have to go to the video and see what the challenge is. But we just got a challenge.

There is a challenge. Play under review.

We'll have a clip in a second.

No joke, but I swear to God, this second I just got a text Hey Jonathan, here with a local Hollywood tree crew.

Hahaha.

Swear to God. We're doing tree removals in your neighborhood. Any trees you'd like to remove? I swear to God, I just— this second.

There's got to be a balance. When you use a company, that doesn't give you the right to text me every day. I took a boat out in the Keys like 4 years ago. And I still multiple times, hey, you want a boat today?

Hey, we got a boat. Oh, how'd you know I was gonna call you?

Yes, I do.

Hey, I'm aware of your company, used you last time, enjoyed you, gave you a good rating. I'll be back when I need a boat. Stop texting me.

You're gonna opt out, just say stop.

If I had a tree I wanted removed, I'd get a tree removal. That's what I would— all right, so what's happening now?

A construction worker's coming in to review the play.

We've had We've had a challenge on the play. We've had a challenge on the play.

I'm nervous.

And we're gonna go to our— why should you be? Why are you nervous? We're going to our video review here to see what the challenge was on.

Look at him, he's got it, like he's leaning into the mic like he's one of the NBA referees. This is Zach Zarba here.

That's exactly right.

Let's roll the tape and see where the challenge is.

A-N-T-E-T-O, Anto— this is where the K's show up. Koop-o? K-O-U-M-P-O?

Yes! Got it!

Shit!

In your face, motherfucker!

We gonna win today!

Hmm.

He missed a letter.

Yeah, as you can see there, he switched the M and the N. Oof. Um, what are we giving out?

Wow.

I'm very, I'm very sorry to do this, but, um—

Oh, wow. Oh, he's pulling out a yellow card. You know, you get another one of those, you're done.

You know, in the past—

Look, the only reason why it's a yellow card is because it was a tough name. He switched one letter, so I'm gonna give him a yellow. Next one, he's gone.

Welcome.

We got a bat. We got the construction worker coming to give the basketball style review, giving a soccer card.

This is to the football player, right?

I want to apologize for embarrassing my family.

And that—

that's a good— that's a good challenge right there. That was a good catch.

Good challenge.

Yeah. Who was Anthony? Like, if I would—

that's—

that was the easier part. Like, that sound is actually there.

Wow.

All right.

It's cool.

Gotta get the—

you know, there are 6 World Cup games today.

There's 6 games today because we're at that final game of the group stage where they want to put people at the same time.

Get it all in.

No funny business. They don't want people seeing results.

Oh, so is this the final— is this the first day of the final games of groups?

Yep.

Okay.

All right.

Everyone is beginning their third and final group stage matches today.

I felt like I understood it until you just said that. Like, I knew what was happening and then Zazz said something and I got confused. So it is the final day of the group stage.

Of the round robin. Right. Like open round.

And as they do in soccer, they all play at the same time so that we don't have like scoreboard watching.

So shenanigans.

Where in order to have a game, because there are teams who like US, fortunately enough, won enough games that they had a game that didn't matter and they just kind of, they can potentially mail it in. So we're trying to avoid that.

They need a draw to win the group.

So I think the easiest way to do this is groups A, B, and C are all playing today. They're playing their final group games today starting at 3 PM Eastern. So, all right, you got some stuff on the line today. Like, taste some good—

I could be way off on this. I should probably have looked it up, but I had heard earlier in the week that the Bosnia-Qatar game is relevant to the United States, that if the United States end up winning their group They would essentially play the third place of that.

Well, the US has won their group.

No, because they have 6 points.

US won their group.

Okay.

Yeah, they won.

I thought I saw the other teams have 3, so they could get to 6 too, right?

But one of the teams that has 3, the US already beat.

All right. Well, so they're going to— so they won their group. My point is, so the Qatar-Bosnia game, unless I'm incredibly wrong, I'm going to verify this now, could be like the winner of that game is who we play in the knockout.

That makes sense.

Hey, get the cards ready. Get the cards ready.

Damn, right after a challenge I did that.

Get the cards ready, big dog. Get 'em ready.

I gotta get buzzed in from my ear from Chicago, so I don't know what's going on.

I am sweating.

You guys have heard about the invasion today?

Oh.

Okay, Dominique, I don't know anything, well, I know very little about this, but what I do know is, so we have Scotland-Brazil, which is taking place here. I can only imagine, Chris, can you actually look up please on the fly here, what is, go to, you know, Ticketmaster, What is the get-in price for Scotland-Brazil tonight? It was about hours away from the—

once this morning it was 3,000. I'll check again.

Okay. Unbelievable, right? Like the only way a family goes this game tonight, it's crippling credit card debt. That's how you get to go and see your country play.

I had the thought yesterday with before looking at prices. I'm like, I did Scotland fans. I'm like, let me, let me think about this. And then I saw the price and I was like, I'm going to have to ask my dad. And I didn't do that. So I—

they're playing today, Scotland and Brazil here. Now, you better not say Hard Rock Stadium. If you say Hard Rock Stadium, all of a sudden you have to look over your shoulder. All right. FIFA's coming out.

$3,200 get-in price.

Unbelievable. What would it have to be for you to say, you know what, I do really want to go tonight. It's going to be a great game.

You need 2 tickets, right?

I mean, I don't want to go by myself.

Yeah. Yeah.

That $6,000. I don't even know. I would rather— like, if it was Game 7 of the— like, I got those seats cheaper for Panthers because I had season tickets. Like, I'm not paying 6 grand, I'll just watch it at home.

What if you see something you thought you'd never see in your entire life?

Okay, so explain Brazil fans. You've seen Brazil fans, they got great fans, Brazil, let me tell you something. So I heard Tony's all riled up this morning about— what did you call it now?

An alien invasion.

All right, can you explain this nonsense?

Okay, so there is a psychic and spiritualist out of Brazil, and she says that she's had multiple dreams that on June 24th at the Brazil-Scotland game in Miami, there's gonna be an alien invasion where on the pitch huge motherships are gonna show up.

Very Men in Black-y.

Multiple motherships.

Multiple— one mothership, other satellite ships are gonna show up at Miami Stadium, and they're gonna abduct players from the field with mechanical arms and also get people from the stands. Thousands of people are gonna be taken from the game tonight according to a psychic in Brazil.

It just hit me that FIFA isn't forcing us to change the names of the stadium because they're greedy and they want all the money. They're trying to confuse the aliens.

Hmm.

Aliens going to be looking for one stadium that doesn't exist anymore because we're playing at Miami Stadium.

Like they're using their alien ways.

They're like, oh, it's Hard Rock Stadium. But damn, this is Miami Stadium.

Flying in circles.

Flying in circles.

Not WAYS, W-A-Y-S. Alien W-A-Y-S.

Aliens are like, That's what complaining about.

What's it called when you're racist against aliens? Is there a name for that? Alienist?

I think it's— yeah, I don't know.

Alienophobic?

Get the cards out, Juju.

Put it on the poll, please. Is it called alienophobic if you're racist against aliens?

So, so this lady is staking her claim. She's got 23 million followers on social media.

23 million?

If you're a psychic and you're game, you run game on, hey, I'm— I can predict the future, I know what's going on. This is a very bold thing to do, to be like, there's going to be a massive alien invasion here. And then if it doesn't happen, what do you do? Business model's done.

Nah, you got to— I mean, they're scammers. They know that they got to move, right?

They got to spin.

Yes, you got to spin. I mean, she's going to be like, well, it happened. You just didn't see it. They were imposters and they used their cloaking technology and they replaced the people or they brainwiped you. And then she got plenty of spin, man. If she got all them followers, she ain't get them followers by being right all the time.

Has she said anything recently?

Like, Cuz today's the day.

She says, I saw so much screaming and crying, so many tears and suffering. Ooh, that's her latest thing. But the second dream she's had— cuz the first dream was the actual invasion— the second dream, she got up into the mothership and she was in the mothership.

She was one of the people. So she's going to the game today?

Maybe. Or she got to somehow some other way.

So how do you know which dreams are like telling the future and which dreams are just like dreams? Cuz I assume she has some dreams where she's like doing like she's flying or something and then she wakes up and doesn't fly. Like Yeah. Don't you have a flying dream?

I got flying dreams.

Yeah.

Okay.

Zaz, you fly?

Uh, yes, I do sometimes. Sometimes I can fly.

Yeah.

Yeah.

For 22 years on this show, we've debated the greatest athletes of all time. Who's the GOAT in football? Who's the GOAT in soccer? Who's the GOAT in hoops? One thing that we all know is Dan's the GOAT of finding the worst possible take. But there's another kind of MVP/GOAT that doesn't get enough credit. The friend who knows to show up with enough Miller Lites. Plus extra ice. Because they just know. The one who already has seats at the bar when you walk up. That is a Miller Time MVP. I've been on this show long enough to know that Dan is gonna make everything about his feelings and Jeremy is gonna push back on whatever I just said. But here's something nobody on this show will argue with. Miller Lite is The summer beer, the original light beer since 1975. This summer, recognize your MVPs. We all have that one friend who makes every game better. Now it's time to give them their moment. Head over to Miller Lite's social media pages to learn more about being a Miller Time MVP. You can pick up some Miller Lite pretty much anywhere they sell beer. It's Miller Time.

Dan Levitar.

For 5 minutes I was watching everyone just like, nope, not letting you in, not letting you in. So when I got up there, I had to say something and I said it. Cheaters never prosper.

Chris Cody.

My buddy was saying, not today.

Yeah, but you're—

not today.

I think that was what he was adding. Yeah, I'm telling you, the response I got from this guy What I said was amazing. Cheaters never prosper. This guy yelled as angry as he could.

I ain't cheating!

This is the Dan Levitan Show. My question is— okay, this is a very important question now. Are you— okay, so, so again, just to—

are you going to the mall later?

Just to recap, just to recap, this woman, a Brazilian psychic who has millions of followers So she must make a living doing this. All right. You know, it's bullshit. So she says that there are going to be multiple alien motherships that descend upon not Hard Rock Stadium, Miami Stadium during the World Cup soccer match tonight, Scotland and Brazil, and that people are going to be abducted, players and fans. Thousands, thousands are going to be abducted by these alien motherships. Now let me ask you something. This is a very important question, and hear me out. Are you rooting for this to happen? And the reason I say that, you may say, Zaslo, what a ridiculous thing to say. Hear me out for a second.

I would say that.

Are you rooting for this to happen? Because there's one part where it's like, no, of course I don't want that to happen. The, the, the world would stop. It would be, it would be crazy. She's seeing suffering and You don't want any of that, all right? But do you want it to happen because it'd be like, holy shit, this, this is unbelievable. Yeah, there are aliens. We know they're aliens now. There are the motherships and they are abducting our people. Oh my God, this is the craziest thing I've ever seen. Are you rooting for it to happen now?

I think I am.

What?

I think I am.

I thought this was the worst Hear Me Out ever.

No, no, no, no. He's on to something.

Hear me out.

He's on to something, especially if you paid $6,000 for the ticket. I want to see something.

That's—

that is true.

Watch the soccer.

I'd like to see something I can talk about.

Let me see some motherships in the air getting people on robotic arms.

Give me a little content here. That's content.

That is content.

We could do a really good show tomorrow if it happens today.

The local hour would be jam-packed. Can you imagine? Here in Miami.

Can you imagine?

So they aren't staying. They're taking these people and leaving.

Well, no, it's a 1-day portion. Is you take them and you take them somewhere else, right?

But I'm saying they will not like It'll just be something that happens that we talk about. There'll be no further impact. Like, they're not gonna stay here. They're not gonna learn things about us and take over. Like, it's just coming in, we give away a million people, they leave us alone, and then we just talk about, remember that time? For the rest of our lives.

Yeah.

Remember that time?

Guys.

Do you remember that time?

It seems like I was right. We are rooting for a result today. With Bosnia and Qatar. If they tie, that opens the door for the, the US to potentially play Senegal, which is one of the, of the third-place teams, a team we're trying to avoid. Whereas if there's a winner in Bosnia-Qatar, they are most likely to play the US in the round of 32. So that's what you're rooting for today. It doesn't really matter who—

I don't know what are we rooting for.

Well, I would just say I think either. I don't know, maybe Bosnia off the top of my head.

I'd rather for either is not rooting for—

like, that is your— but It can be a tie, Zazz. So you're just rooting for a result.

You're rooting for a winner.

You're rooting for someone to win. If it's a tie, that makes it where you could end up playing Senegal.

And we're rooting for the mothership.

Maybe something to talk about.

Can you imagine you and your kid watching the game? It's like, the mothership!

What would you do? You're watching the game, and then all of a sudden, the mothership descends upon the stadium, and like, it actually happens. But you're watching, you're safe, you're watching in your living room. What would you do? Like, do you— it's easy. You yell across the house. You want your wife to come see what's happening? Like, what do you do?

Grab your bat and you head down to the stadium.

I'm about that.

Down to the stadium. I'm about that action. You just going to let them come?

You're trying to break out the phone. You're going to record it.

No, no, no, no, no. Fighting these aliens. Oh, you're going to let them come and take your people? Wow. We got to go. Is that— is that not— oh, well, it is really expensive.

$700 to park. Yeah.

Oh yeah. Well, they got— they can have them. They can have them if they come.

Yeah, we got to buy a parking lot.

Traffic will be tough because you got to figure if the mothership is there, there'll be some rubbernecking.

Yeah, people are going to want to leave. So the traffic going to the stadium is actually going to be good because it's going to be clear.

But there'll be a lot of rubbernecking. You know, people who are driving are going to be going slow. They're stopping, they're looking at the mothership. You're not going to get that close, Dom.

You—

well, I'm running like you got to fight them.

Are you going on foot?

You gotta fight 'em. You're not gonna fight 'em seriously. You're not gonna fight 'em, you're gonna hide?

Well, you're gonna get to a certain point in a car and then get out, leave the car stranded, and then go on foot.

But I know I sound crazy, but seriously though, if there's aliens invading, would you rather go and fight or duck and hide? Because the duck and hide portion is, alright, I might live for a couple more days, a couple more sad, scary-ass days. Or let's go fight this thing. Either we fight, either we push back.

Go out like a champ.

Or you don't, you go out like a champ, or you actually win. You guys are parking the bus. You can't park the bus on life. You parking the bus on life. You get your baseball bat. Well, we're in Florida. You get your firearm.

I got that.

You got your firearm. You don't need baseball bat down here. I was thinking DC, where it's much harder to get one of them weapons. You get something, you head down there. They might be allergic to, I don't know, grass. Call your grass man, take some bags of grass, throw it at them, figure it out, you fight back.

I don't know, I'm not in the National Guard, man. Like, National Guard needs to come over and, you know, Air Force.

Nah, nah, nah, nah, they are for like— this is an all hands on deck.

I don't know about that.

You better get your hands on deck. Yeah, this is not like country versus country. The country versus country, we got people for that. Right now we need everybody, men, women, and children.

You're looking at me, you're like, don't worry, Zaslo's on his way.

Yeah, I mean, you could take a couple shots while—

it's kind of like an NBA fight. You don't want to be the guy walking away, you want to be the guy walking to the fight. Even if you're not going to throw anything, you got to do something. You got to, got to show for the boys in the film room, hey, look at me, I was, I was— look at me, they stopped it before I could get there, but I was there, I was on my way. Look at the inertia moving this way.

Tony's got an idea.

I got that thing on me too.

You got to.

Well, hope—

hope—

I'm— look, Hopefully it all works out for these Scotland fans, all right? Because these Scotland fans— Scotland taking on Brazil tonight at Miami Stadium, Hard Rock Stadium— they, they've been having a time, okay, the last couple days.

So much vacation time for these people.

Aliens versus the Tartan Army.

They, they've been at the Marlins game the last couple days. My son said to me, my 4-year-old, why are they at the Marlins game? And I didn't really have that good of an answer, you know? Like, I told him, like, I think they just all want to be together and have fun, you know? He just But why the Marlins?

Like, I saw they're at Mike's. I think there's just so many of them, they're everywhere. They are everywhere. They were at Mike's bar.

Yeah, they just want to be together. Oh, see on the video, like, Jeremy, look at him. He's all— he's all in— he's all up in their business. He's all— can we get Jeremy? Actually, can you want to send Jeremy a note real quick?

I think he's working the Marlins game, but I will text him.

Send Jeremy a note right now, okay? I don't care if he's at the Marlins game. Send Jeremy a note right now and let's get him on here because I Did he have a kilt? I think he had a kilt. That's why I want to talk to him.

Is that— I mean, a little bit of appropriation.

Have you ever worn a kilt?

I would never disrespect them by putting on a kilt.

Oh, is that disrespect?

Like, I don't know, your culture is not my costume. Shout out to you with a kilt, and I don't know if it will work for me.

Yeah, look at that picture right there. He's wearing— okay, we have— okay, he's wearing a kilt right there. And we have Jeremy. We have Jeremy from Marlins Park. All right, let's talk to Jeremy. Jeremy. Yo, were you wearing a kilt the other day?

Yeah, of course.

Jeremy is coming at us live from Marlins Park. It looks like he's in front of the dugout. Uh, thanks for jumping aboard with us. So you've been hanging out with these Scotland dudes the last couple of days at Marlins— at Lone Devo Park?

Yeah, the Tartan Army. Like, they're incredible. They, they won't stop chanting, um, which is kind of my favorite part of all of it. So they brought like a really, really cool energy to the ballpark. It was a good weekend having Flanigans Fest and having Father's Day and all that. But then on Monday, all of a sudden, the entire upper deck in right field is full and you've got all of these Scottish people who literally had all of the $5 beers before first pitch even happened. The energy was insane and they were all wasted and kind.

I love it that they replaced the normal Marlins energy, which, I mean, I haven't been to a Marlins game in probably a year, and that energy that I felt there was not the energy that I saw in the video. So it's nice, it's a normal—

well, they have a, they have a really handsome new in-game host, um, and that guy's really changed the atmosphere. You know, they've actually this season set the record for the most wins in a row ever at Lone Depot Park, and a lot of people are giving credit to that host.

Let's get to that kilt.

They call him Uptown Pale.

Oh, that's a good nickname.

That's good. So they were fine with you wearing a kilt? Like, I feel like you— it's something you gotta—

oh yeah, they encouraged it. No, they encouraged it. They taught me how to be a true Scot. Oh, mine was purchased at Party City.

All right, let's just— let's get to the meat and potatoes here. All right, because what I think—

you call it a meat potatoes?

Okay, I've never worn a kilt before, but to me, the advantage of wearing a kilt is I'm not about wearing that underwear under the kilt. If I'm wearing a kilt, we're going, uh, we're freeballing.

You don't really wear a kilt.

I've never worn one.

I can picture you in a kilt.

I think it'd be cool. I think you look like, I don't know, I think you look tough when you're wearing a kilt. Maybe just because I've seen Braveheart a bunch of times, you know? Jeremy, uh—

And Rowdy Piper.

And of course, Rowdy Rowdy Piper. Jeremy, were you freeballing? Were you freeballing? At the Marlins game? Were you working the Marlins game? You have a microphone, you're an in-game host, and true or false, you were free balling?

I'm a professional.

True.

Yeah, you were slanging.

True.

I'm— I— there were, uh, bats being swung at the Marlins game. Yes, there were baseballs there. It's not free, uh, to come to the game. You have to pay for a ticket.

Juju, put it on the poll, please. Was Jeremy freeballing while working the Marlins game a couple of nights ago?

I was a true Scot wearing a kilt.

Freeballing.

And I was a—

was it comfortable?

He was a true—

the air must have been great, right, Jeremy?

Yeah, that feels good.

It is air-conditioned at Lone Depot Park.

No, no, I'm talking about your ass.

Summer.

Yeah, we're talking about in the kilt draft where you were wearing no underwear.

They were saying that I kilted. Um, I will say—

When you went to the bathroom, did you just lift up the front of the kilt and just like let it rip?

Yeah, how'd that work?

Yeah, yes, that's true.

Because you were freeballin'.

Oh, I think they're—

I think they're calling.

I gotta go.

He's embarrassed. Did I embarrass him?

Why would he be embarrassed?

There's nothing to be ashamed of.

It wasn't like he was out there just buck.

At least he didn't say "flamily" yesterday.

Oh, Jeremy, he doesn't get away with anything around here, man.

Yes, sir, flamily!

Oh, can, can— did we cut up the—

let's have fun with that sound.

Flamily!

My man!

That's the one that I wanted. You know what I need, the "my man." My man! For those who weren't here yesterday, Jeremy was doing a thing that I think we've all have done before at some point, is that you you are like trying to be like chill and relaxed, but with people that you don't really know. And on the street, he was doing like some Heat analysis, and some guy was really excited about the Heat, and Jeremy ran up to him and was, uh, trying to be cool with him. It was not on the show yesterday until the end, and then he did this.

Kendra, good work. I stopped here to tell you this, dude.

You're a freak.

Yeah, I love that. Jay?

Yeah, Jay, listen, my man, it's been 10+ years This is what we get.

My man.

My man. I mean, I'm not judging him. I think—

I am.

All of us have been in a situation where you try to be relaxed and it doesn't come off quite cool enough.

I've used my man before in that setting.

What's up, my man?

My man.

Yeah, it was too much enunciation. It felt like it was the first time he called somebody my man.

My man.

My man's one word. My man.

Now can we take his flamily mistake and bring it into other iconic show moments where we use the word family?

If you think that your family would get a lot of joy from seeing you go to the Hall of Fame and they're getting up there in age, why are you talking to parents?

Uh, we have one with Brian Kelly. I'm here with my family and we are so excited to be in the great state of Louisiana. And we have one with Cam Cameron.

And we drafted again, family. I've known this family for over 10 years. I watched this young man for a long time. Ted Ginn and his family will give us everything they have, I promise you that.

My man.

That crowd was not feeling Ted Ginn, man.

Getting, getting booed when you're drafting. They, the, um, the Spurs got booed last night, right, when they were getting drafted. But I mean, draft was in New York, which— oh yeah, but it sucks for a guy in that moment. Like, you are having your big moment and people like, boo. Like, you remember when, um, Porzingis got drafted and the Knicks fans were like, nah.

Well, the big one that I always think of was when the Eagles drafted Donovan McNabb. Oh yeah, that was like the famous one because did they want— I was just saying, I think it was Ricky Williams that they wanted and, and they drafted McNabb. Oh, they booed him out the building.

How'd they react to your draft pick?

Um, yeah, cheers. Yeah, I mean, by the time I got drafted, there were probably nobody still left. That was back when they did it at Radio New York City Music Hall. I was like drafted in the '90s, so like, ah, nobody—

did you do like a little house party?

Yeah, we had a little house party.

We have a camera there?

No, no camera.

Okay, you had that Lev at the time?

Nah, no Lev. Almost every Jets draft they are born. Remember Kyle Brantley, that pick? Yeah, picking a tight end in the first round.

Kyle Brady.

Oh, Kyle Brady.

Sorry, Kyle Brady.

Yeah, Kyle Brady is the famous one. Yes, where they, they boo— they booed the pick. I had to explain to my son last night, you know, Adam Silver gets up there and my, my boy really enjoyed where I said, doesn't Adam Silver look like a— he looks like a Q-tip. My son thought that was the funniest thing ever. And, and he said, why are they booing him? He didn't even do anything. And I was like, it's just what you do.

Yeah, you got to boo that. I mean, that's the Roger Goodell thing. You got to boo the commissioner like that. And Roger plays into it and loves it now. Now it's just a thing that they do to all commissioners at every draft. Well, actually, Gary Bettman.

Yeah. Yeah.

I mean, they're pretty— commissioners are pretty booable, man.

Of course.

Like, it's hard not to be a booable commissioner.

Of course.

Dan Levitar. I've never stepped foot on that campus. If you told me right now your life depends on it, go to Santa Fe University and just take a picture. Jonathan Saslow. I would die. I don't know where it is. This is the Dan Levitar Show. Tony, with the NBA draft last night, there's a lot of storylines. All right. You got a top 5 for us to keep us updated what's going on with the association?

Yes. Yes, I do. A top 5 storylines through the NBA draft. So we're going to have a little OLI and then we'll get to the top 5. OLI. Number 1, Sacramento, welcome to upgrading to being Portland now. Sacramento drafted Darius Acuff Jr. Very good pick. Good pick.

Nets should have taken him.

They got Michael Brown, also very good pick. But Portland and a guy who got drafted there out of a small school, even though Darius Acuff went to Arkansas, Damian Lillard, very comparable to Darius Acuff Jr. And Sacramento, who I don't even know who's on the team at the moment. Like they just have a roughshod roster of—

I mean, they still got Sabonis for now.

Sabonis for now. DeMar DeRozan.

They have Keegan Murray.

Yeah, sure.

All right.

Is Malik Monk still running around?

You know, they're robbed.

But a bunch of guys that are just like not really that good. So Sacramento has upgraded to being Portland now, so that's good for them. Number 5, are the Clippers gonna make any moves coming up? My man, the question is, we thought they were gonna go get Darius Aikov Jr. There was a lot of questions about, uh, Kawhi Leonard, about his situation. Were they gonna be in the Jaylen Brown conversation? Seems like they're not at the moment. They go and get, uh, Wagler out of Illinois, good big guard to pair with Darius Garland. But are they done? Does Steve Ballmer have a bag of tricks that he wants to pull something out of and try to get something for Kawhi, who may be headed towards some sort of situation?

The Heat should trade for Kawhi.

Okay, so let's talk about that. What do the Heat still have asset-wise to go get Kawhi?

Nothing. But they should get him. You got Jović. Would you like a Jović?

Yeah, you got Jović, you got, um—

Norm Powell.

Trade him back.

Andrew Wiggins.

You don't actually have Norm Powell though, right?

Well, you can sign and trade.

Wiggins would have to be— part of the money, right?

But he'd have to opt in. Like, you can't do that until the league year starts.

Okay, so there's something there. The Clips have an interesting situation, especially with the aspiration conversation, if something's going to happen there discipline-wise with Kawhi, with draft picks, with whatever. Seems to be smart to get out of town while you still can. Number 4: will we remember this top 4 in 10 years?

My man, right?

It's been a very—

we might—

very big talked about top 4 between Boozer, DeBansa, Peterson, Caleb Wilson. Everybody's talking about Caleb Wilson may be the best guy in the draft. We don't know. Darren Peterson, should he have gone 1? Like, to me, I think Cam Boozer is probably the last of those guys, just athletic— athletically. I don't think he's, he's on par, but there's been a lot of drafts and we were like, wow, lowest ceiling but highest floor, I think. Sure, sure. And to a Memphis team with Zach Eaddy, like, that'll be interesting as far as a front line.

No one cares they have John Rant anymore, you know, because we don't know if he's going to be on the team. Yeah, but it's amazing, like, a few years ago this guy was like, he was, he was in such a good spot, and now it's like, oh nice, they drafted Kamboozer, apparently, with Zach Edey.

Zach Edey.

Yeah.

7-foot-4 statue. Number 3 teams to keep an eye on after the draft.

My man.

The Wizards.

My man.

The Hawks.

My man.

The Jazz?

My man.

Jazz, sneaky good little move around what they've been doing. They've gotten a lot of good pieces. Darren Peterson's a very good player.

If I'm a Jazz fan, I'm a little bit excited between, you know, Markkanen, Jaren Jackson Jr., Ace Bailey, and now Darren Peterson. I feel like I got something to watch every night.

There's something there with the Jazz. The Hawks getting Kingston Fleming is a very good point guard that they needed. Jalen Johnson's been great for them. Like, the Hawks are doing a lot of good.

And who knows, maybe the Hawks wind up trading for Jalen Brown, you know, all of a sudden.

Now it's a really good team in the East. And obviously the Wizards, I like what they've been doing. They've, they've got some playoff potential, play-in game potential, uh, next, uh, next season. Number 2, Dusty May won the night.

My man.

Between getting 3 guys drafted in the top 15, having the clip of him dapping up, laughing, and then going complete mog face straight to the camera.

Mog face?

Yeah, just mogging to the camera.

My kids say that. Your kids say mog, Domi?

Nah, my kids aren't mog sayers.

He did the thing where he was like super excited and giddy and genuine, and then he realized he was on camera and like made his face—

That's mogging?

Yeah, like you're like, I'm so free. Oh no, I'm cool.

I thought mogging was like you like look better than someone.

Yeah, I don't know if that's—

No, that's looksmaxing.

No, looksmaxing is like a lifestyle, right? Mogging is like a situation. Like you, you mog somebody when you're— we sound so old.

Oh my God.

Zero clue what you're talking about. I think mogging is like you frame mog them. It's like you take a picture.

You got to keep talking.

Keep talking. You got this.

No, he's making sense.

The internet's happy with this.

The more I talk, the more sense I make. Yeah, I'm good.

Dusty May not only had 3 guys drafted, not only had that viral moment—

drafted one of his own kids last night, right?

Drafted one of his own kids. It makes you think.

One of his players.

Yes.

What makes you think?

That is child.

He had 3 guys there and he's like, I'm going to take the best guy out of the 3 because he had the first pick of those first 3. So he took the pick of the litter. So Dusty May won the night and number 1, Oklahoma City reloads. Did you like the Mar and Sturtz pick? Because I very much like the Sturtz pick.

My man.

Sure.

Mar is also 7'4". They need him to be able to help defensively against Wemby. Obviously, we know Chet cannot play against— cannot be in the same building as Wemby anymore after what he did to him during the conference finals.

When they make those picks and like, I think about it from the perspective of the players and the night and how important that clip is to them and their family. It's always a little awkward when you get drafted and then your pick becomes about someone completely else, someone else completely, which is what they did. They're like, this is all about Wemby. Like, tell me this guy is good. Tell me his stats. Yeah, he's 7'4" in Spain and he's like We got him for Wemby. And then they said the most outrageous thing, which I guess makes sense, is like, now Chet can play the 3 where his 7'1" ass belongs. Like, 7'1" 3? What is he, Kevin Durant?

Yeah, like, we're doing whatever it takes to make sure that Chet does not have to go up against Wemby.

Please, anything. Yeah, but there's the tallest guy in the draft.

Get him.

Yeah, and you know what it made— it made the Finals— made what made Holmgren look even worse because no one on New York was afraid of him. Now it doesn't mean that, that Wembenyama is not better than you, but like, Chet Holmgren was legitimately afraid of Wembenyama. No one on New York was afraid. Like, oh, we're gonna try and play against him.

There's nobody better than Wemby. Wemby's better than everybody. It's not the point. The point is you go up there and you bust them in the mouth. Yeah, you gotta try and you play tough. Yeah, the same thing that Mitch Robinson did, that OG did, that even KAT did.

Just try.

KAT was the guy that played the toughest on Wemby. If you would have told me Chet or KAT, who's gonna have a better defensive series, I would have told you Chet.

A lot of tough guys in here who are not afraid of this alien, but we're afraid of the other aliens. Y'all wasn't with me going down to the stadium to fight back. Call it now. All of a sudden you're like, oh, you not scared of the 7'5 alien that's actually here?

Where are my tax dollars going? Fake tough guys.

The reflecting pool. That's where it's going.

Uh, they're going to other places.

Tony, any others? Did we go through?

No, that's it. That was number 1. OKC reloads to try and get Wemby, uh, My man out of the Western Conference Finals and into the—

I mean, Hardenstein is out, I guess, if they went with the Marra.

They got an option on him. So we'll see what that, what that lands them. But they needed a second ball, third, fourth ball handler. Bennett Sturtz is going to be a very good shooter and a very good ball handler.

I do want to mention here, so we had 6 World Cup games today and we got the alien invasion coming here at Hard Rock Stadium with Brazil and Scotland tonight. But we, we do kind of have to mention, especially because Everyone was crushing him for like a week. Ronaldo had a couple goals yesterday.

We—

it is important for us to mention that. I get it. Okay, Uzbekistan. All right, whatever. He had a pair of goals after we spent a week crushing him that he's washed and he's hurting the team and he's come off the bench and what a disaster this is for Portugal. Now again, maybe it's because Uzbekistan isn't any good, but, but still, it's Ronaldo. Who heard a week's worth of everybody saying that he's finished, and then he had a pair of goals the very next game in a World Cup match. I thought that was pretty cool.

Yeah, I mean, and he still obviously has the, the foot. Like, the, the goals weren't easy to score. I guess getting in position and having the opportunity to score the goals against a team that is not among the top is, is something. Uh, 5 goals in, in soccer is a lot of goals to be scored. They blew this team up, but it's still something.

He scored 2, he didn't play defense against any of his own teammates from scoring, just a major win for Ronaldo yesterday.

Yeah, so important to mention that. Something else that's really important for us to mention here, there's not going to be an easy way to transition in or out of it, but we're just going to do it because it's important to note and we care very much about David Sampson. So you may have seen yesterday on Twitter, there was no— nothing personal with David Sampson yesterday, and he tweeted out that there was no show and he apologized for that. And you all know that David has been dealing with a very serious issue with his daughter, and he sent out this tweet about an hour ago. I will read it to you for those who are not watching on video. Yesterday, my daughter Kira passed away peacefully after a 9-month and 11-day fight against one of the cruelest diseases I've ever seen up close. She was diagnosed with brain cancer, specifically glioblastoma. I have felt all of your concern and love for these months and wasn't ready to be any more specific than I was. Kira was a 28-year-old young woman who loved deeply and who was impossible to describe in 280 characters. While her life got stolen from her, she handled these months with courage, poise, and resolve.

And all I want is for no family to feel what we feel today, for no young person to suffer the way she did. And then he continues on with, uh, where you can donate. You know, if you were thinking of sending flowers, you could donate instead to The Kira Fund, and it finishes with, this fund will be used solely to research treatments for glioblastomas. And you can go to David's Twitter account, which is @DavidPSampson, and you can click on the link there if you are so interested. But I want to send out a note. I sent out a note this morning to David, and you know, I could do it here as well. I know David gets a lot of criticism from the audience, and that's fine, it is what it is. But I have always found David to be very kind. I like being around him. I think he's a nice guy, and I feel absolutely terrible for David. It's, it's obviously an unimaginable loss, and I would hope that a lot of the audience handles this with, with grace, you know, because, you know, David has a certain reputation that rubs a lot of listeners the wrong way, I suppose.

But I feel terrible for him. It's obviously the most unimaginable thing that could ever happen to a person, and he's dealing with it right now, and it's something that unfortunately is never ever going to go away for him. So wanted to make sure that we put that out there. I feel terrible for you, David, and we're all thinking about you and thinking about your family and looking forward to the time, whenever it is, that you wind up going back to work, and we look forward to seeing you again soon.
