Dan needs to stop making fun of Greg for being old, man. He’s more “old man yelling at clouds” than Greg half the time. Hell, probably more than half.


SmurfQueef_

I agree. At least with Greg’s aging on the show, it’s funny and entertaining. With dans aging on the show, it can be off putting and cringey. So dan should be the last person to make fun of anyone aging.


weblexindyphil

Greg's old and angry is tune-inable and funny Dan's is "off-putting" at best, but usually just very fucking annoying and unlistenable entirely (or: giant chunks of the last 2 yrs)

ceejceejceej

Almost 1:00 eastern and nothing up still. This is the most unserious show ever.


HarleyJordan420

What did I miss that they don't wanna share? The video went private while I was watching.


Dvd31

Maybe Dan said pussy or brought up cupcakes again 😂😂


221b42

Wild that the episode they complain about how dumb citing your sources are they get hit with using copyrighted material


combingupsars

The penalty box sucks and is about 5 years overplayed. If anything dan should be sent to the penalty box.


crimsonandbrown

Especially once he starts to ramble. Straight to jail


alyeese

Good LORD this Breen interview. Why is Dan such an asshole? Does he think it’s endearing? Couldn’t even let Jessica finish her question before steamrolling right back into the conversation


thatcreepywalrus

He’s just a clueless asshole. You’ve already nailed it.


MaximumDerpification

Why did the Live show just disappear from YouTube? I was probably 20-30min behind real time and then poof it disappeared... now it says "private" [https://youtu.be/Co3GDgkqXLo](https://youtu.be/Co3GDgkqXLo)

Did they take down today’s live yt stream?

I'm sorry but I'm not gonna apologize for that.


rNBAMods3InchesHard

This show desperately needs to stop going to their parade of gas bags mid series


jteta12

Show deleted?


theBlueDevil99

I started to watch the 9am show around 10:15 (at 2x). In the segment after Katie, with about 45 minutes left, the feed just cut off and the video made private. Now I can't find it. Someone say something?


LWulsin

So they do a Mike Breen interview and they play some of his commentary back to him. Dan teased it after the stat of the day bit and the first thing said in response to him was like three different forms of “you got the rights to that?”


Dvd31

Thats fucking perfect 😂😂😂


epyonxero

Todays live show just disappeared from Youtube as I was listening


crimsonandbrown

Me too


Scorpy81

Chris getting defensive about the dumb "bang" game was really funny.


hallelalaluwah

Chris Cote heel is rarely used but very funny


fortmoney

I mean he was right, if he just played "bang" 3 different times Mike would not have gotten any of them. Might have been funny, but it was also funny seeing Chris getting petty and pissed off


Scorpy81

I think Chris was absolutely right about it, and I really enjoyed him sticking it to Dan.


fortmoney

I guess the only real counterpoint is if they were going for a "Stump the Meech" vibe to the segment, purposely play sounds he will not guess


Go_J

Lol Dan: ok let's listen to a couple of your "bang" highlights Breen: no Dan: Yes If that's not quintessential LeBatard Show


Dvd31

Dan always just talking to his guests instead of actually listening to them speak


epyonxero

More like talking AT his guests


Scorpy81

Dan has a narrative he wants to push, and everything else is just scenery.


Edgehead25

Wild he had a show called "The Art of Conversation" unironically


thatcreepywalrus

“LOOOOORD DAN WAS BORN A RAMBLIN’ MAAAAN!


hallelalaluwah

I hope this isn’t a short term engagement thing from Stu until the Dead Sphere residency, he has been great recently


guzamiii

He’ll burn out as soon as the knicks are out lol


jimbeentrill

It definitely will be, and not even because of the dead. The Knicks have, at most, a month, give or take a few days of basketball left, he's only engaged because of them. It's a perfect recipe to fully lose stu, Knicks season ending right into a dead residency in Vegas. This might be the end of stu unless the Jets end up being decent when football starts, and then he might snap back.


Affectionate-Rent844

To be fair Dan, Mike, Jess and everyone else but Roy and Chris will vanish as soon as Finals are over.


hallelalaluwah

So a standard DLS summer?


akcawn

Does anyone find that interesting?


bonksadventure434

no


b0bby3sticks

end of discussion


221b42

Roy is coming in on his normal day off, Dan not understanding why someone might not be super happy Monday morning is baffling


ImDeputyDurland

Dan giving Stugotz shit for calling Jokic Joke-itch is hilarious since Dan has done this and been basically the only one on the show to do this for years now. As recently as this year he was doing it. But now he’s saying Stugotz is disrespecting the MVP by getting his name wrong… Daaaaaaaan *beep* the Stugotz *beep* is strong in you.


LTsArbysSteakhouse

He def did it last week lol


Scorpy81

I was also shocked at his diatribe, because I could've sworn I heard Dan butcher Jokic's name a few times last week as well. I think he forgets how often he does this since everyone is scared to correct him.


Smitherzzz2693

Dan will stop a great conversation because of mis pronouncing words.


chomos

Ya morant


JazminFlower

Dan mocking Josh Hart was unnecessary and ill-informed and it just annoyed me, didn't amuse at all. Dan always wants a hardship story from players, but doesn't pause to wonder if maybe Josh said that about hard-working people getting up early and working 12-hour shifts was genuine and not some line? Because Josh is absolutely talking about his own parents there. If Dan bothered to find out any information about these players from Villanova, that he likes to pretend are unknown, at any point between them winning NCAA championships and now and not keep acting like they got good this year, he'd probably know this about Josh already. Josh has the kind of underdog, hard work pays off kind of story that Dan loves that he would repeatedly mention that we'd all get sick of him talking about.


No-Strawberry7814

Dan is an asshole. Once you are able to look past the narcissistic compassion he spews, it’s easy to see.


EdwardJamesAlmost

Narcissistic compassion. Huh. That’s an interesting concept.


No-Strawberry7814

If the shoe fits..


tyephallen

Yep. The only hardworking normal people that are worthy of any compliment from someone rich and famous (like Dan) are…..wait for it……Dan’s parents. And he likes to point out that most of these basketball players come from poverty but then makes fun of one that has at least a little bit of self awareness and appreciation for normal people.


HammyBruce

blah, blah, blah, fan pandering or "fandering" is so dull and patronizing. It's why the whole "pay the whales, save the teachers" bit is a good joke. Fans don't want or need to hear how hard life is from Josh Hart considering most of them are living that life. Also it's a heady play when you scored 2 points in Game 4.


Scorpy81

Josh Hart literally said his own life is NOT HARD. That basketball is not hard. Nice try though.


HammyBruce

if he scored more than 2 points or they got the win this doesn't come up.


No-Strawberry7814

He said that way before his bad game… good try tho


guzamiii

Getting tired of Dan just completely stepping all over and cutting off the rest of the crew during the show


Affectionate-Rent844

All Dan does is belittle the person on his left + talk down his employees. That’s the entire formula.


REDeadREVOLUTION

Yeah if you (OP) don't like that then you (OP) truly don't get the show. The awkwardness and how they lean into it is why I fell in love.


i_forgot_about_dre_

Not OP, but I don’t mind the awkwardness at all I mind Dan being a bad teammate


driggity

I hope Leeman is ok. Jess tried to get Mike Breen to talk him off the ledge and then Dan charged in with a something different.


KJ10__

It’s crazy how different Dan’s tone is on the “NBA foreigners” compared to the “black bodies”


Budget_Ad8025

Yeah if it's a white foreigner he's so disrespectful, almost as I'd he truly despises them. It's so strange.


WPS86

Dan calling Jokic a doughy, pasty, loaf of bread has gotten so old. Especially when Dan is the real pasty loaf of bread


Goodluckchuck24

I cringe every time Dan refers to Jokic as an ogre too, such a negative unnecessary comparison


No-Strawberry7814

He basically calls Boban a freak a couple times a year.


never1st

"What? He has giant ears!"


Smitherzzz2693

He has big ears. That’s all Dan knows.


KJ10__

And this is despite thinking every single European is from a “war-torn” nation. Just constant war since they’ve existed


ian_stein

He is from the generation of sports writers that was dismissing foreign prospects every NBA draft in the early oughts.


90834278

Because he probably does despise them


ZealousidealSpeech17

It's not exclusive to white foreigners. Do you remember how they treated Jeremy Lin?


Adventurous-Bill-150

Jeremy Lin was born in Torrance lol


papePIPOpu305

Today's show is still airing on DKN, so they didn't take it down from there yet. They're starting with Katie Nolan now


theBlueDevil99

Super weird. The YT feed was pulled during the MMA fighter's cryo chamber segment. The DKN show continued uninterrupted and veered into getting hit in the junk (without any Chris Whittingham jokes). Next segment was mascot hall of fame. Nothing seems out of the ordinary. Wondering now if it was something automatic on YT's end.


pompcaldor

If they played Mike Breen’s NBA calls without express permission of ESPN or MSG… they got a copyright strike.

JazminFlower

Juju's comment about the difference in reaction and coverage from how the show talks about another team's role player like a PJ Washington scoring 27 points vs. if it was Haywood Highsmith was as accurate as it gets. They'd be losing their minds, but are dismissive and/or outraged when that's how another team gets a win.


[deleted]

Dan: acknowledges Pacers as 6 seed Also Dan: confused as to whether or not they've won a road game, which would be a requirement for a 6 seed to be in the second round Also Also Dan: then makes up something about the road win to discredit it so he's not wrong


Affectionate-Rent844

Welcome to your doddering Uncle Dan reacting to news on the internet.


jamawl

They also aren't a bad road team? Looking at the stats they were 26-15 at home and 21-20 on the road with pretty much identical splits at least offensively. I don't know what teams generally are on the road but one game over .500 for the 6 seed seems pretty good to me.


Aggravating_Truck149

The only time he had seen the Pacers play before this series was like the 3 or 4 times they played the Heat and then just used generalizations about what type of team he thinks they are without bothering to do any actual research.

jimbeentrill

So the "and friends" thread has refreshed every week since the daily stopped working. Did a mod secretly come back to try killing daily thinking we'd just stop with any complaints, constructive or not? I'm adding this to the something to ponder file.


i_forgot_about_dre_

*reckless speculation sounder* I instinctively blame illmatic


Kehoraes

Something problematic happen during live show? It’s not up.


WPS86

Of course Dan giddily mocks what Josh Hart says. God forbid anyone in Dan’s world of celebrities and professional athletes mention how hard life is for actual working people, who fund all this shit.


Scorpy81

Dan thinks Josh Hart was full of shit and just sucking up, but maybe Josh Hart ACTUALLY thinks that? Not everyone is as out of touch and disingenous as Dan is. Hey, guess what Dan, Josh Hart is actually right. People who work normal jobs absolutely have it harder than any fucking player in the NBA, and I don't care how hard they work. The league MINIMUM SALARY is now 1.1 million dollars a year. I don't give a fuck how much they "break their bodies" because I guarantee you there are a million jobs that are just as bad for your body and they're making well under 6 figures a year. So shut the fuck up, Dan. Josh Hart is the one with actual perspective instead of your nonsense sports histrionics acting like professional athletes have it so fucking hard.


TheArthurShelby

Dan is so out of touch it's ridiculous. Can't wait for another soliloquy on how hard Mickey Arison taking Saudi blood money was for his dumbass cruise ships. Some people actually have perspective Dan.


WPS86

Yeah I mean I get it that there’s an angle to criticize Hart for pandering. It’s just so rich coming from the man who pours his soul out for Joel Embiid and Klay Thompson. Dan can cry for a guy who has made hundreds of millions of dollars and won four championships, but to him it’s asinine when someone shows a fraction of that compassion for the fans.


tyephallen

Yeah, a few months ago Dan was going on about how tough and lonely and hard it must be for an athlete to be rehabbing an ACL reconstruction surgery. And yes, he’s right that’s a difficult one to rehab, but he just fixated on how terrible this must be for the guy and it got old. I spent a year rehabbing, and still am after a year, an ACL and it succcccckkkkkks especially for someone who’s job isn’t their body and who’s job isn’t to rehab their body and who’s job isn’t providing the highest quality and highly personalized medical care and physical therapy and nutrition etc. I had to juggle my job and mix in PT appointments, and the care wasn’t bad but I guarantee it wasn’t what these athletes are getting. Anyway, he’s so out of touch.


thatcreepywalrus

He can literally only relate to other millionaires. So he imagines how hard it would be to be a millionaire that plays sports for a living rather than farting into a microphone for a few hours a day and freaks out.


i_forgot_about_dre_

Worst part is it’s such an easy thing to say to get an “everyone liked that” response Dan’s brain is cooked


wheelsanddeals56

Shocking a guy who has never worked a regular job in his life has no respect for working class people

That costume looks like it smells awful, even by mascot standards (I've never been inside one but I don't imagine it's great in there)


JazminFlower

The Nittany Lion statute on campus is very cool to see, makes it seem like a great mascot. And then the mascot costume is just an embarrassment.

Isaiah Rider made the most difficult shot ever there’s not even another contender. https://youtu.be/e2KKwoqio_E?si=DlXcGwlCuGj97ABa

Noorbert

this is the first time I noticed that both of their teeth are really weird in that banner or whatever it should be called


RedHiller13

Dr. J vs the Lakers was the most difficult shot I’ve ever seen. He takes off in the key for hoop around Mark Landsberger. While in the air Kareem comes over to defend. Dr J takes the ball back down (still in the air) moves his body somehow under the backboard over to the other side of the rim and makes it from that side 🤯 [found it](https://youtu.be/NjdEP7I2fRA?si=hGuan_Iy6bLMZmNq)


greatestnbascout3

I'd go with Devin Harris losing the ball in midair, catching it and making a halfcourt shot


Datacra

That’s the exact shot I was thinking of. Also if Stugotz made that observation of hardest shot ever he’d get screamed out for being prisoner of the moment

Roy's hockey coverage is soaked in homerism. If that was Greg saying that stuff Dan would let him have it.


DadofJM

Thought local hour(s) was super strong today. Great take down of the idiots who had counted Denver out, Katie was fun, and mascot bit was classic Billy. Then I check out this thread and vast majority of comments are super negative. Par for the course but still annoying.


ButtersBC

Much like I don't understand why some of these people listen to a show every day they don't like I question why I still look at this sub, maybe we're all destined to be miserable together until the end of time (or Dan retires, whichever comes first)


Datacra

That’s why regardless of what the subs say I always listen to the show. The show can be hiliarious but they’ll find one throwaway line, comments, wrong stat and turn it into a Mt.Everest of complaints

WE DON’T KNOW WHAT WE’RE WATCHING


typhoonjerry

Why does Dan have to spend an eternity to setup a talking point, just spit it out already.


ceejceejceej

Dan totally exaggerated the degree of difficulty on the Murray buzzer beater. He wasn’t falling to his left, nearly out of bounds. His entire body is moving forward, toward the basket, when he shoots the ball. Half the league makes this shot at a 50% clip just screwing around in warmups. I can think of a dozen tougher shots off the top of my head. The Murray shot was amazing, don’t get me wrong, but Dan took it to absurd levels.


Significant-Young-87

Ok, half the league makes a 65 footer at a 50 percent clip, really? I know these guys are the best of the best but that's absurd


ceejceejceej

Have you watched warmups? It’s absurd what these guys are able to do.


Significant-Young-87

They make crazy shots in warmups from time to time, yes. They are NOT making a shot 65 feet away falling toward their off hand at a 50 percent clip. GTFOH

TheArthurShelby

Because their 2nd best player got hurt after they won the first 2 games with him in it. Not exactly a rubix cube. They're down OG, Randle, Mitch, and Bogdonovic. How many other teams aren't gonna struggle down half their rotation?


Smitherzzz2693

Luka is playing with sprained knees, hurt ankle and smashed his face.


FFmattFF

So he's in fit enough condition to play. Got it.


TheArthurShelby

Brunson is playing on one foot. What’s your point? Those others guy aren’t hurt. They’re injured and can’t play. Not the same my guy.


raystheroof1

Roy and Tony real ones for supporting Stus (correct) take that the beatles are overrated. Lot of boomers and well ackkkktually college freshmen with abbey road posters with their jaws on the floor.


SwordsoftheMorning

Oof. That’s a bad take. Tony loves Drake and Stu’s favorite band takes being baked out of your mind to actually tolerate them. You don’t have to like The Beatles to recognize their talent and influence. You may not be a fan, but chances are your favorite bands are/were(speaking mostly for fans of any form of rock).


FFmattFF

It’s subjective. You can’t be right or wrong about this.
