Speaker 1 Hey, Chris here. Black Friday game day is coming to prime and it'll be an epic day of live sports.

Speaker 1 Black Friday football is at the center of it with the Chicago Bears taking on the Philadelphia Eagles at 3 p.m. Eastern.

Speaker 1 That's followed by the final night of the Emirates Cup NBA group play and a doubleheader starting with the Bucks and Knicks at 7 p.m. and the Mavericks and Lakers at 10 p.m.

Speaker 1 What a nightcap game that is. But the whole day starts with the return of the Capital One Skins game as four elite PGA golfers face off with $4 million on the line.

Speaker 1 Black Friday game day tees off with Capital One Skins game at 9 a.m. Eastern before the Big Bears Eagles game at 3 p.m.

Speaker 1 And it culminates with a double dose of Emirates NBA Cup action, featuring Bucks Knicks at 7 p.m. and Mavs Lakers at 10 p.m.
Only on Prime.

Speaker 2 I mean, I don't know if you heard earlier in the show.

Speaker 2 I want to get to your story because I don't know the details of Kenyon Martin and Draymond Green, although I would imagine just from what little I've seen around it, that Draymond Green would evidently publicly back up a little bit on Kenyon Martin.

Speaker 2 We will see what it is that that story is. But before I get to that, Zaz hitting Tony in the speed bag face with, you are high, you are out to lunch twice.
Get a clue. You played yourself.

Speaker 2 Yo, Ben Stiller looking like a fool. Adam Silver doing nothing.
It was a rat-a-tat-tat barrage of Zaz at his best. And my question to you is: which do you like best there?

Speaker 3 Hmm. You're out to lunch is a a funny one.

Speaker 2 What does that mean?

Speaker 3 It's like you like we're working and meanwhile you're over at Chick-fil-A waiting for your name to get but as far as insults go it's just not even close to the edge.

Speaker 2 You're out to lunch doesn't you are high is feels almost cliche. It's not starting very strong.
But you are out to lunch twice is him trying to escalate that you are high.

Speaker 1 My favorite Tony insult today was when Dan didn't know he hosts a podcast Keon Dueling.

Speaker 3 Yeah, Dan, that's pretty bad. Yeah.
You know, I was on, and not only was I on it, the clip I did with them is doing crazy numbers. Tony, I don't know if you noticed that.

Speaker 4 No, no, I noticed it.

Speaker 3 Crazy interaction, crazy engagement, particularly from NBA players. Lots of NBA players interacting with that clip, but not Dan.
Super disrespectful.

Speaker 4 Not an NBA player, not a Hooper.

Speaker 2 Super disrespectful of me. What is the Draymond Green Kenyon Martin story before we get to our start of the day?

Speaker 3 Okay, so basically, Kenyon Martin went on Marcellus Wiley's podcast, I believe, and he was asked about guys you don't want to see, right?

Speaker 3 Guys you don't want to fight, basically, because they're about that life. And so he names a bunch of players all the time, Charles Oakley, David West, yada, yada, yada, James Johnson.

Speaker 3 And Marcellus says, I noticed a name you didn't say was Draymond Green. And Kenyon Martin said, look, I've always felt like Draymond was a guy whose

Speaker 3 fights are calculated. He's picking on people.
He's trying to get a reaction out of people.

Speaker 3 And most importantly, the people he picks on usually aren't going to be the ones that he's afraid of or aren't trying to fight, right? So it's Rudy Golbert. It's guys like that.
That's what he said.

Speaker 3 It was, I thought it was, I didn't think it was disrespectful in any way to Draymond Green's basketball, certainly not. And it was more, I thought,

Speaker 2 but it's not being, it's not accusing him of being a fake tough guy, but it is accusing him of some of the same stuff that Kevin Garnett got accused of, which is he would only go after the Europeans or guys who are weak or he perceived as weaker than him, not real fighters.

Speaker 3 Yes, that, and also

Speaker 3 what I would almost call a compliment of the cerebral level, like the Dennis Rodman.

Speaker 3 I don't think anyone was afraid to fight Dennis Rodman, but Dennis Rodman had a way of getting under guys' skins and getting reactions. Alonzo Morny, Carl Malone, Shaquille O'Neal, all these guys.

Speaker 3 And so that's how I interpreted it. I don't know if Draymond didn't listen to the whole thing or doesn't listen to the clip or didn't even hear it at all.

Speaker 3 Someone gave him secondhand information, which happens a lot, happens a lot to athletes. They hear it from someone else who puts their own little crazy spin on it.

Speaker 3 So Draymond comes out and he's basically just killing Kenyon Martin's career. Like you were the number one overall pick.
You were a disappointment. You're only a one-time all-star.

Speaker 3 You sniffed a couple of finals, but you never won the big one. And basically, who are you to tell me with your resume? Which

Speaker 3 wasn't ever what Kenyon Martin was doing. But of course, once you do that to Kenyon Martin, Kenyon Martin comes out with the list of 44 guys

Speaker 3 who were better than Draymond Green, including Daniel Lovedis, Danny Fortson, and Reggie Evans, and Nene Hilario, and some other guys. Dane was tough.

Speaker 3 Nene was tough, but I don't know.

Speaker 2 No, but there are no insults in there to say all of those guys are not people that anyone would want to fight.

Speaker 4 No, no, better players.

Speaker 1 Better players.

Speaker 4 Nane better fits.

Speaker 3 Better players. Because now the original point, the original discussion, Dan.

Speaker 4 Reggie Evans.

Speaker 4 Come on.

Speaker 3 The original discussion is out the window. Now we're just playing disrespect for disrespect, which is the same thing with the John Morant and and Clay Thompson thing, if my theory is correct.

Speaker 3 I think he was talking about Pat Spencer, but Clay Thompson thought he was talking about him. And so now Clay Thompson says disrespectful stuff.

Speaker 3 So John Morant's like, well, you're gonna disrespect me. I'm gonna disrespect you back.
But we've strayed away from what the original point was.

Speaker 2 Put up the photo of Zaz and his long Johns. Thank you.

Speaker 1 They're impressive.

Speaker 4 Soda drinker's body.

Speaker 2 What's impressive?

Speaker 1 Literally, that lingerie needs to be folded.

Speaker 4 Okay. Yo, you look like a bad thing.
I'm going to say this.

Speaker 3 Zaz, when you were talking about it earlier, I had pictured you in in the red long Johns, like lumberjackers from like the 1800s and stuff. Yeah,

Speaker 3 I thought, yeah, I thought you were gonna be like one of those guys, and then you're running with the butt flap. You know, the flap, you thought wrong.

Speaker 3 You know what I'm talking about, flap?

Speaker 2 We got pepperoni nipples. Let's uh let's move on to stat of the day.
Thank you. Uh, good seeing you, Amin.
Talk to you next week. Happy Thanksgiving, sir.

Speaker 3 Happy Thanksgiving.

Speaker 2 Uh, let's go ahead and uh play the stat of the day music, uh, the long version, please. The long version,

Speaker 4 start of the day,

Speaker 1 It's fascinating watching you work, pal.

Speaker 1 Stat of the day is presented by Amazon. Prime Video.
Black Friday football is back this week. It's the Chicago Bears take on the Philadelphia Eagles.
Coverage begins Friday at 1:30 p.m.

Speaker 1 Eastern only on Prime Video. You know how Homer Simpson was in charge of a nuclear reactor?

Speaker 2 I love how you said 1:30 p.m.

Speaker 4 I was also presented by Amazon, Prime Video. Yeah.

Speaker 1 It's that of the day, Dan. I have it.

Speaker 2 We'll get to it in just a second.

Speaker 4 It's not how this works.

Speaker 1 Are you going to do another topic in between the reads?

Speaker 4 Yeah, you got to hit it. You got to hit it.

Speaker 1 That's the feedback that we've gotten from our partners.

Speaker 4 You just got to hit it.

Speaker 1 On Sunday, Jameis Winston against the Lions had five

Speaker 1 completed passes over 20 air yards. Five of them he had on Sunday.

Speaker 1 The Steelers did not a complete.

Speaker 4 No,

Speaker 4 not a complete. You're going to love his Italian guy, I'm pretty sure.
He's a legend.

Speaker 4 He's a legend. It did not a complete.

Speaker 1 We're losing the punchline of this stat now.

Speaker 4 Stat now. I made this about me.

Speaker 4 Let me do it again.

Speaker 1 Jameis Winston on Sunday. God, I crushed this first part about Jameis.
Jameis Winston on Sunday against the Lions had five completed passes.

Speaker 4 It was not a complete. It didn't matter.
It was not a complete pass. Over 20 air yards on Sunday.
He had five of them. No, it was not a complete.
Think about this.

Speaker 1 He had five just on Sunday.

Speaker 1 The Steelers did not complete a single one in the month of November. The Steelers, not a one, did not complete a one.

Speaker 4 Mama me. Don't do this.

Speaker 4 Can I go home for the weekend?

Speaker 4 Did not a complete judgment.

Speaker 4 Don't judge. Yeah, he does.
He's more to it. He's all shakup.
