| 00:00:01 | Zach parise again with an empty
netter.
|
| 00:00:03 | Team u.s.a. moving on.
|
| 00:00:03 | They're into the semifinals.
|
| 00:00:06 | >>> Sidney crosby and ovechkin
battle in the quarter finals as
well, canada-russia.
|
| 00:00:14 | Patrick marleau to dany heatley
who passes it to dan boyle.
|
| 00:00:21 | 2-0, Canada.
|
| 00:00:22 | Ryan getzlaf to eric staal to
corey perry.
|
| 00:00:25 | Good puck movement.
|
| 00:00:26 | Canada rolls and win 7-3 over
the russians.
|
| 00:00:30 | So lots more on that coming up
a little later on
"
we welcome you to our los
angeles studios.
|
| 00:00:35 | Sharing the podium with neil
everett, I'm stan verrett.
|
| 00:00:38 | After his gold medal
performance tuesday, what would
kobe bryant do wednesday in
figured to
guard kobe but he was out after
a bad reaction to some
medication.
|
| 00:00:54 | So deshawn stevenson, the new
guy, drew the task.
|
| 00:00:58 | Deshawn stevenson was up to the
task.
|
| 00:01:00 | And kobe struggled early.
|
| 00:01:01 | He missed his first five shots
and was 0-5 in the first
quarter.
|
| 00:01:06 | Second quarter, he's going to
finally get on the board.
|
| 00:01:10 | Get on the board.
|
| 00:01:14 | Kobe, one foot hits the
offbalance jumper.
|
| 00:01:16 | His first two points in the
game.
|
| 00:01:18 | He had six in the first half.
|
| 00:01:20 | That bucket kobe passed to
reggie miller for 13th on the
all-time scoring list.
|
| 00:01:26 | Lakers again, plus one at the
half.
|
| 00:01:28 | Kobe, 3-11 in the first half.
|
| 00:01:31 | Eaten up in the third quarter.
|
| 00:01:33 | Baseline jumper and the
fadeaway over stevenson there.
|
| 00:01:36 | And the jumper against shawn
marion there.
|
| 00:01:38 | Kobe bryant, 4-6 in the third
quarter.
|
| 00:01:41 | Mavs, though, look what the
kidd did.
|
| 00:01:43 | He knows they'll leave him open
for that shot.
|
| 00:01:45 | He hits it.
|
| 00:01:46 | Mavs up two after three.
|
| 00:01:48 | Lakers with eight wins this
season when trailing after
three.
|
| 00:01:52 | Fourth quarter, dirk.
|
| 00:01:53 | And the foul!
|
| 00:01:55 | Ready to shoot.
|
| 00:01:56 | He had 31.
|
| 00:01:57 | 12 In the first half, 19 in the
second.
|
| 00:02:01 | Jason terry, oh, the 206 is in
the house!
|
| 00:02:04 | He had 30 points.
|
| 00:02:05 | The mavs up nine.
|
| 00:02:07 | Lamar odom, nice game, 8-11, 21
points.
|
| 00:02:12 | Lakers down six after the
old-fashioned three.
|
| 00:02:15 | Minutes to play, lakers down
five.
|
| 00:02:17 | Kobe bryant.
|
| 00:02:19 | Gets by you.
|
| 00:02:21 | Three-point game, 30 seconds to
go.
|
| 00:02:23 | Lakers down three.
|
| 00:02:23 | We are tied.
|
| 00:02:24 | Oh, we are not in memphis.
|
| 00:02:27 | Kobe, 20 points, 9-23.
|
| 00:02:30 | Dirk's team wins 101-96.
|
| 00:02:33 | >> We knew they going to keep
coming all game long.
|
| 00:02:36 | I think our defensive style,
heyward was battling behind him
and marion made it tough on
kobe down the stretch and he
might have gotten a few looks.
|
| 00:02:46 | But offensively we're moving it
well.
|
| 00:02:49 | We made the defense shift a
bit.
|
| 00:02:51 | We were on fire.
|
| 00:02:52 | >> Against the top eight teams
500 and
100 points per game.
|
| 00:02:59 | Interesting.
|
| 00:03:00 | They've feasted on the rest of
the league going 36-7 while
holding those opponents to 96
points per game.
|
| 00:03:08 | >>> Thunder-spurs.
|
| 00:03:09 | Kevin durant, 25 points in 29
straight games.
|
| 00:03:12 | In san antonio.
|
| 00:03:13 | And ready for action.
|
| 00:03:15 | First quarter, thunder down
four.
|
| 00:03:20 | Durant rips the ball through
and then a three from the top
of the key.
|
| 00:03:24 | Also a good start.
|
| 00:03:27 | Trying to draw the foul but
just jumped.
|
| 00:03:30 | It was good.
|
| 00:03:31 | Thunder up one.
|
| 00:03:33 | Durant says give me that.
|
| 00:03:36 | And you take this.
|
| 00:03:40 | Showing some defense and ten
turning the defense to offense.
|
| 00:03:45 | He has tim duncan on him.
|
| 00:03:47 | Doesn't matter.
|
| 00:03:47 | 17 Points in the first half for
durant who was off to a good
start to get to 25 but the
second half was a different
half.
|
| 00:03:55 | Early third quarter,.
|
| 00:03:59 | Russell westbrook ahead to
durant.
|
| 00:04:02 | These two have the folks in
oklahoma city excited for their
future.
|
| 00:04:06 | Durant again.
|
| 00:04:08 | Just a boring score.
|
| 00:04:12 | Four points in the third
quarter, 21 total through
three.
|
| 00:04:17 | Fourth quarter, tied at 83-83.
|
| 00:04:20 | And durant goes cold.
|
| 00:04:22 | Jumper, clank.
|
| 00:04:24 | Clank.
|
| 00:04:24 | And then on the break, manu
ginobili says no, sir.
|
| 00:04:31 | Perhaps underestimating how
high ginobili could get up.
|
| 00:04:35 | Two minutes to play.
|
| 00:04:37 | Thunder down five.
|
| 00:04:38 | Westbrook sees durant and
doesn't give it to him, though.
|
| 00:04:42 | Instead he drives and he can't
hit.
|
| 00:04:44 | Thunder pretty much ignoring
durant in the fourth quarter.
|
| 00:04:47 | So they'll look for other
options.
|
| 00:04:49 | Under a minute to play.
|
| 00:04:50 | 21 Points.
|
| 00:04:52 | Three-ball there.
|
| 00:04:53 | He had 21 points.
|
| 00:04:55 | The spurs win it 95-87.
|
| 00:04:59 | Duncan with 19-15 for the
spurs.
|
| 00:05:02 | So now you see durant's streak,
pretty impressive.
|
| 00:05:06 | 29 Straight games with 25
points.
|
| 00:05:09 | That's the longest streak of
such games in one season since
michael jordan in 1986-1987 and
lasted 64 days and thunder had
20 wins in the
the span and shot 51% on the
floor during his streak.
|
| 00:05:23 | >>> Even if you don't know what
it feels like to play in the
nfl, you may know what it feels
like to get a job you dreamed
about your whole life and then
pour every ounce of your
ability, your heart and even
your soul into that job.
|
| 00:05:35 | Then one day the company that
hired you where you grew that
career decides one day you're
not worth their investment
anymore.
|
| 00:05:42 | Imagine the emotions you might
experience as you ponder the
uncertain future and try to
come to grips with your past.
|
| 00:05:49 | You can imagine that or listen
to ladainian tomlinson on life
after the chargers.
|
| 00:06:00 | >> It's funny because I was all
prepared, said I wasn't going
to do this.
|
| 00:06:07 | [Laughter]
sometimes emotions is what
makes a person.
|
| 00:06:19 | And as you guys know, I've
always worn my emotions on my
sleeve.
|
| 00:06:30 | So for that I'm not sorry and i
thank you.
|
| 00:06:34 | I'm excited about the future, i
really am because for the first
time I do have an opportunity,
you know, to see what's out
there and kind of not really
pick and choose because I don't
know who is going to want me.
|
| 00:06:49 | But to find out where I may fit
in.
|
| 00:06:53 | I always said my number one
goal is to win a championship,
so you know, it gives me, i
guess, confident relief to know
that guys have gone on to win
championships.
|
| 00:07:03 | You know, this is not the end
of the road at all.
|
| 00:07:06 | I'm not retiring.
|
| 00:07:07 | So I am very excited and i
really believe I'm going to
have that opportunity to win a
championship.
|
| 00:07:13 | >>> Tomlinson was the chargers'
first round pick in 2001.
|
| 00:07:17 | Their second-round pick that
year was drew brees and the
chargers gave up on him after
that now well-documented
shoulder injury in the final
game of the 2005 season.
|
| 00:07:26 | Brees, of course, signed with
the saints and then this season
got the title that's alluded
the chargers and tomlinson says
he's ready to chase elsewhere.
|
| 00:07:36 | How about new orleans with
brees?
|
| 00:07:39 | Brees tweeted about that
wednesday and said, I would
in the black
and gold.
|
| 00:07:43 | Crazier things have already
happened.
|
| 00:07:46 | The saints have pierre thompson
and reggie bush and mike bell
in the backfield but this could
be worth watching.
|
| 00:07:57 | >>> Westbrook was released and
he suffered two concussions
last season.
|
| 00:08:03 | He had no weakness, had, past
tense.
|
| 00:08:07 | Now present tense.

|
| 00:08:10 | I've already started to train
for next year.
|
| 00:08:13 | My plan is to go out and
continue to play.
|
| 00:08:16 | That doesn't necessarily mean
there are going to be things
that will pick me up but i
talked to my agent yesterday
and he said threeo -- three or
four teams called yesterday
since it was announced.
|
| 00:08:29 | I'm going to continue to play
and put all my effort into
doing that.

vancouver.
|
| 00:11:46 | Jonas hiller stops joel
pavelski.
|
| 00:11:53 | Hiller stood on his head and
made 18 saves.
|
| 00:11:55 | Less than five seconds left.
|
| 00:11:57 | Still no score.
|
| 00:11:59 | Ryan kessel swings the puck and
hiller tries to get it and goes
on miss back.
|
| 00:12:06 | Did it go in before the horn?
|
| 00:12:07 | The puck doesn't cross the line
before time runs out.
|
| 00:12:11 | No goal.
|
| 00:12:13 | First hockey game of this
olympics that go scoreless in
the third period.
|
| 00:12:17 | on the power play in the
third.
|
| 00:12:19 | Brian rafalski to zach parise
and parise with a deflection
for the goal and now there's a
score and it's 1-0, u.s.a.
|
| 00:12:25 | Take a closer look, rafalski
splits two defenders with the
pass and parise gets the goal.
|
| 00:12:32 | 1-0.
|
| 00:12:33 | Later in the period, ryan
miller caught out of position.
|
| 00:12:36 | The shot rings off the post but
didn't go in.
|
| 00:12:39 | Once again, the entire puck
didn't cross the line so play
continues.
|
| 00:12:44 | Ryan suter, long wrist shot.
|
| 00:12:46 | The ref waves off that goal.
|
| 00:12:48 | Kessler is called for
high-sticking before the puck
goes in and negates the goal.

|
| 00:12:57 | Switzerland, let's go.
|
| 00:12:58 | Empty net, extra attacker.
|
| 00:12:59 | Here comes parise on the attack
and the empty net goal.
|
| 00:13:04 | Gives team u.s.a. a 2-0 win.

and we did a good job of
proving that we're able to be
patient and take what's given
to us.
|
| 00:13:30 | >> People keep talking about us
as underdogs but we played with
all the players in this league
and most of players that are
here played with them and
against them and think we're
more capable of getting the job
done.
|
| 00:13:42 | >> How about canada-russia?
|
| 00:13:45 | Ovechkin and crosby,
quarterfinals, losers out.
|
| 00:13:48 | Canada 1-0 on the power play.
|
| 00:13:51 | Patrick marleau, dany heatley,
dan boyle, red light.
|
| 00:13:54 | This is good because russia is
going to need a bigger boat
because you have marleau from
the sharks patsing to heatley
and passing it off to boyl ex,
the shark's defenseman and will
beat the shark's goalie evgeni
nap cough.
|
| 00:14:16 | -- Evgeni nabokov.

over.

not alone in being unhappy.

|
| 00:14:40 | Unable to tap it in here.
|
| 00:14:41 | We'll have a 10-goal game and
ovechkin and crosby are
pointless in it.
|
| 00:14:48 | Unbelievable.
|
| 00:14:52 | One of my hockey fan friend
said the first two periods was
the best hockey they'd seen.
|
| 00:15:00 | Matthew barnaby, what did you
see?
|
| 00:15:01 | hockey team did
exactly what they needed to do
in beating a switzerland team
weaker than them but deserved
the game because from the drop
of the puck they dominated
play.
|
| 00:15:11 | As for the canadians and the
much-anticipated game against
the russians, well, this was a
no contest from the drop of the
puck in this game to canada
dominated the physical play,
got pucks in deep and wanted
the game so much more than the
russians.
|
| 00:15:26 | Ovechkin, malkin, semin were no
shows in the game and as this
game went on, they got chippy
but I think they should have
done a lot more of this during
the game instead of waiting
until the game was out of hand.
|
| 00:15:38 | Canada has responded and really
put themselves in a great
position to compete for gold
and might be on a collision
course with the americans for
that gold medal game.
|
| 00:15:47 | >> I believe it was nabokov who
said afterwards, the club was
totally surprised how hungry
canada was.

| 00:16:20 | The fog is bad, the
communication is bad.
|
| 00:16:23 | Mancuso will be the next one to
start and they don't stop her
from starting so she gets all
the way down and now she's got
to stop and she says that's
like running an extra 400 meter
sprint and has to go back up
after getting the yellow flag
and you look at the vonn fall.
|
| 00:16:38 | She ends up breaking a finger
and is tangled up in the
netting like a pretzel.
|
| 00:16:45 | Mancuso has to restart.
|

|

this.
|
| 00:41:21 | Erica morrow appeared to throw
a punch.
|
| 00:41:23 | At least that's the way the
officials saw it and said, we'd
like you to leave.
|
| 00:41:28 | And we have a little
consternation between these two
clubs to begin with.
|
| 00:41:32 | This is last year's game.
|
| 00:41:33 | There were elbows thrown.
|
| 00:41:35 | When coach gino was going
through the line, hey, did you
try and trip me?
|
| 00:41:39 | Who tried to trip me?
|
| 00:41:41 | Make sure nobody tries to trip
me.
|
| 00:41:43 | >> Ok.

your comments.
|
| 00:42:41 | All the talk about lebron and

kobe is the clear cut m.v.p.

|
| 00:43:56 | .
|
| 00:43:56 | I was well hooked up with a
supplier and saw mark hurt all
the time so I said to mark,
it's something you've got to
think about.

that can maybe change your
career, a way of recovery.
|

proposed this, what was his
reaction?
|
| 00:44:11 | >> He wasn't for it at first.
|
| 00:44:13 | It took a while.
|
| 00:44:15 | I actually just kept on
pounding him about it and i
said, you know, we can get you
on a some -- a good training
program to get your body
changed, you know.

I just know the effects of

get healthy.

steroids, the human growth
hormone, was there a discussion

was using the stuff, how you

|

understanding.

scratching and fighting and
playing your tail off and you
miss those kicks, not
acceptable.
|

for those without verbal
self-restraint.

| 00:50:15 | What will happen when ozzie
tweets?

not that long ago twitter's
growth had flat lined and ozzie
joining the party might give
them a defibrillator like
spike.

chest pains.

don't know what it is?

his meeting with williams about
this thing and he has a show
coming up.

|
| 00:51:50 | Terrell holloway slips.
|
| 00:51:52 | It's not the shoes, it's the
skills.
|
| 00:51:54 | More from this game later.
|
| 00:51:55 | >> Number six, cal
state-fullerton.
|
| 00:51:57 | Under 10 seconds to go.
|
| 00:51:59 | More madness.
|
| 00:52:02 | Jacques streater with a running
bank shot.
|
| 00:52:06 | Fullerton wins by two.
|
| 00:52:08 | >> Back to xavier-st. louis.
|
| 00:52:10 | Jason love, the rebounder and
one-handed putback as he falls
to the floor.
|
| 00:52:15 | That is impressive.

depaul-cincinnati.
|
| 00:52:22 | 10 Seconds to go.

| 00:52:23 | This in the first half.
|
| 00:52:24 | Lance stevenson.
|
| 00:52:27 | Big finish!
|
| 00:52:28 | >> Oh!
|
| 00:52:30 | >> Yes, sir.
|
| 00:52:31 | I don't know 13's name.
|
| 00:52:32 | Good thing he doesn't have his
name on the back of his jersey.
|
| 00:52:38 | >> Jarvis varnado against
mychal green.
|
| 00:52:42 | Ravern johnson will finish on
the other end.
|
| 00:52:45 | Varnado is a fun player to
watch.
|
| 00:52:47 | Take another look there.
|
| 00:52:49 | Set the all-time blocks record.
|
| 00:52:52 | Mississippi state wins by
eight.
|
| 00:52:55 | Varnado another big block right
there.
|
| 00:52:57 | So aloha, my name is mr. hand.
|
| 00:52:59 | >> He's the slap master.
|
| 00:53:01 | Manu ginobili getting up to
durant
is'6"'9" but he doesn't go for
the dunk.
|
| 00:53:10 | >> What a finish, marquette-st.
|
| 00:53:13 | John's.
|
| 00:53:13 | In overtime.
|
| 00:53:14 | Three, two -- we're going to
double overtime.
|
| 00:53:17 | No, we're not.
|
| 00:53:18 | Jimmy butler.
|
| 00:53:19 | He lost it, got it back, turned
around and put it in johnny's
mug.
|
| 00:53:27 | >> All right.
|
| 00:53:28 | We should see a few "top plays"
in this game.
|
| 00:53:31 | Lebron out for a little bit of
revenge.
|
| 00:53:34 | Guess how many consecutive
games the cavaliers lost in
boston?
|
| 00:00:00 | Bryant.
|
| 00:00:01 | But against memphis the night
before.
|
| 00:00:04 | Looked awful good, but here
against lebron stopper,
stevenson and company, he was
struggling early.
|
| 00:00:12 | >> You learn it's always good
defense when the offender
misses.
|
| 00:00:18 | Bryant playing in the second
game didn't seem as aggressive.
|
| 00:00:22 | Only went to the free-throw line
one time.
|
| 00:00:24 | Give the mavericks credit.
|
| 00:00:27 | settling for shots the
mavericks wanted him to take.
|
| 00:00:32 | He wasn't hitting any in the
first quarter.
|
| 00:00:35 | 0-5 From the field.
|
| 00:00:37 | Later, something goes right.
|
| 00:00:40 | Up and over jason kidd.
|
| 00:00:43 | 13Th leading scorer, passing
reggie miller.
|
| 00:00:48 | >> Bryant will go down as one of
the greatest player to play this
game.
|
| 00:00:55 | Josh: how about dirk?
|
| 00:00:58 | He had a game high of 31.
|
| 00:01:01 | I-point deficit for the lakers
when bryant looks like bryant.
|
| 00:01:07 | Back within three and here, in
transition, after this miss by
marion, they are going to push
it the other way.
|
| 00:01:14 | Bryant is going to have a look.
|
| 00:01:16 | >> At this point you feel as
though bryant is going to get a
good look, which he does.
|
| 00:01:24 | Goes long.
|
| 00:01:25 | The mavericks find a way to
secure the loose ball.
|
| 00:01:29 | still able to work the
free game.
|
| 00:01:34 | Here we go, three-point game
after that three free throw but
but fisher goes tore the steal.
|
| 00:01:40 | >> Not the best time to gamble
because your clock is your best
friend.
|
| 00:01:45 | The mavericks do a good job of
keepaway.
|
| 00:01:51 | and so frustration would
be the lakers on the second
night of a back-to-back.
|
| 00:01:58 | Mavericks win it 101-96.
|
| 00:02:01 | Bryant struggling 9-23 from the
field.
|
| 00:02:05 | And speaking of struggling, the
lakers against the league's
best.
|
| 00:02:09 | You can see under 500 in the top
eighth in the nba scoring under
100 points per.
|
| 00:02:17 | 36 Up just seven down they held
opponents to just 96 points per.
|
| 00:02:22 | So it's a story of a team and
the player now.
|
| 00:02:26 | Bryant's back.
|
| 00:02:27 | He lookegood against memphis
and you can't fault him
struggling last night but how
about the lakers' ball club
especially when the other best
teams in the league comento
play?
|
| 00:02:41 | >> Every team is going to take
their best shot.
|
| 00:02:46 | And every time they go against a
team, it's a measuring stick.
|
| 00:02:49 | They have to do a better job of
finishing the season, 0-2
against the cavs and nuggets.
|
| 00:02:56 | You don't want that come playoff
team.
|
| 00:02:58 | As long as they are healthy,
they can repeat as champions.
|
| 00:03:04 | this was a team in the
mavericks without butler and
another player they added.
|
| 00:03:10 | If they play late in may june,
they will be another team.
|
| 00:03:18 | That is just one of many topics.
|
| 00:03:22 | You log on to espndallas.com.
|
| 00:03:26 | We are going to stay in the
great state of texas.
|
| 00:03:30 | Spurs hosting the thunder.
|
| 00:03:32 | And durant, 25 points at least
in 29 straight games.
|
| 00:03:37 | What did he make a 30 against
the spurs?
|
| 00:03:42 | >> And when you are a great
scorer like he is and make a
shot like this, you figure this
may be a huge night and wouldn't
be surprised, because durant is
legitimate.
|
| 00:03:54 | When you look up prolific in the
dictionary, his name should be
listed somewhere.
|
| 00:04:01 | and then, the fact he can
score from anywhere on the
floor.
|
| 00:04:06 | >> That's the key.
|
| 00:04:09 | "
does it in transition.
|
| 00:04:15 | let's not sleep on
westbrook.
|
| 00:04:20 | Finding durant.
|
| 00:04:22 | >> He has allowed durant to be
more efficient.
|
| 00:04:26 | It lows your scorers to be in
position.
|
| 00:04:29 | looks like the streak is
not in any question.
|
| 00:04:33 | Again, he had 21 through three.
|
| 00:04:36 | But look at what happened here.
|
| 00:04:38 | Ginobili, get up.
|
| 00:04:40 | >> Ginobili turning back the
hands of time in a free agent
year.
|
| 00:04:45 | Goes to challenge durant who
goes off the right foot like a
lefty.
|
| 00:04:50 | Ginobili is not having it.
|
| 00:04:53 | the coach said that's
amazing.
|
| 00:04:57 | I was expecting to be dunked on,
I speak for manu.
|
| 00:05:03 | Not the only big play.
|
| 00:05:05 | Off the bench, he seems to
always be in the right spot.
|
| 00:05:08 | >> Any time he gets help,
ginobili gets off to a rocky
spot, playing better.
|
| 00:05:16 | You want to get tony parker
healthy.
|
| 00:05:20 | >>
josh: ginobili wept for 26.
|
| 00:05:26 | Scoreless in the fourth quarter
as he finishes with 21.
|
| 00:05:29 | That streak of is is over as the
spurs win it 95-87.
|
| 00:05:35 | How about the streak that has
come to an end.
|
| 00:05:38 | We'll start with 64.
|
| 00:05:40 | That's the number of calendar
days that elapsed since durant
went for fewer of 25, before
christmas, back on december 19.
|
| 00:05:51 | 32.4.
|
| 00:05:51 | That's his average over the
streak for oklahoma city.
|
| 00:05:57 | Impressive.
|
| 00:05:57 | Gets shot all over the floor.
|
| 00:06:00 | How about 20?
|
| 00:06:02 | The thunderers' team benefiting.
|
| 00:06:04 | They won 20 games over that
500
ball club.
|
| 00:06:11 | And now durant's the fourth
forward in the history of the
league to do 25-plus, at least
29 straight.
|
| 00:06:22 | He is in with mcadoo and berry.
|
| 00:06:29 | They have lost two in a row
playing themselves into the
playoffs as of today.
|
| 00:06:34 | What do you make of all the
pressure that this young ball
club is going to face?
|
| 00:06:39 | >> They will find a way to get
in.
|
| 00:06:41 | You look at kevin durant, he is
consistent and efficient.
|
| 00:06:45 | And allows green to play at a
hire level.
|
| 00:06:49 | He he played a small forward at
georgetown but he jumped center
for the thunder.
|
| 00:06:54 | And look at westbrook.
|
| 00:06:56 | But durant is the key.
|
| 00:06:58 | It is about expectations.
|
| 00:07:00 | They have the same record as the
san antonio spurs, but the spurs
are looking to be a champion
contender team while the thunder
is looking to surprise.
|
| 00:07:11 | number 21, the age of
kevin durant.
|
| 00:07:15 | Spurs and thunder sitting in a
very packed bottom half of that
western conference.
|
| 00:07:21 | Do the thunder make the
playoffs?
|
| 00:07:23 | >> I hope they do.
|
| 00:07:24 | A great story.
|
| 00:07:26 | Josh: we appreciate it.
|
| 00:07:28 | today marks the deadline
for teams to place a franchise
tag on players.
|
| 00:07:33 | Decision made include the
carolina panthers not
franchising peppers.
|
| 00:07:40 | It would have put him at $20
million.
|
| 00:07:43 | Patriots putting the price tag
on wilfork, nonexclusive tag.
|
| 00:07:50 | And saints, not franchising
sharper.
|
| 00:07:55 | They let the safety hit the
market, although many feel he
will be back in new orleans.
|
| 00:08:00 | And the houston, texas, not
franchising quarterback
robinson, the career leader in
interceptions for that team.
|
| 00:08:07 | Franchise last season at the
cost of $10 million, many
regarding him as the best
available quarterback on the
market.
|
| 00:08:15 | And richard seymour coming at
$12 million for 2010.
|
| 00:08:20 | The raiders will acquire him.
|
| 00:08:24 | This brings us to john clayton,
joining us live from the nfl
combine there in indianapolis.
|
| 00:08:30 | 00 today
to place a franchise tag on
players or allow them to become
fully unrestricted key agents.
|
| 00:08:38 | Who are the key players to watch
before today's deadline?
|
| 00:08:41 | >> The big news is that brackett
isn't going to be franchised.
|
| 00:08:49 | The idea is they don't want to
restrict him by putting a
franchise tag on him and willing
to risk him going into free
agency because they anticipate
he isn't going to get the
biggest offer.
|
| 00:09:05 | He looks like he will stay.
|
| 00:09:07 | Hampton is getting close to a
deal with pittsburgh that may
prevent him from getting the
franchise tag.
|
| 00:09:13 | They are working on this in the
next couple of hours so he could
stay for two or three years and
make sure that he will do
something else.
|
| 00:09:21 | That means that jeff reed could
end up with a franchise or
transition tag, but it looks
like hampton is going to get a
deal in the next couple of
hours.
|
| 00:09:30 | again, the deadline at
4:00 today.
|
| 00:09:33 | That is john clayton with the
latest on players entering or
perhaps not nfl free agency.
|
| 00:09:41 | the bubble has grown
monstrous in the college
left-hand.
|
| 00:09:47 | Doug gottlieb will tell you
who's in and who's out.

|
| 00:13:47 | questions spround --
surrounding the olympics.
|
| 00:13:56 | wasn't the main course
north of the border.
|
| 00:13:59 | who
dispatched canada, facing
switzerland.
|
| 00:14:06 | And here time running out in the
second period of a scoreless
game.
|
| 00:14:12 | Hiller trying to swat it away.
|
| 00:14:13 | But they're going to take a look
at it.
|
| 00:14:17 | The puck has to cross the goal
line and as you see here, the
puck, just beaten.
|
| 00:14:25 | And so it is still scoreless.
|
| 00:14:29 | And scoreless into the third
period.
|
| 00:14:33 | First game to be such.
|
| 00:14:34 | U.s. on a power play.
|
| 00:14:38 | Throws it on net and deflected
in.
|
| 00:14:42 | First goal of the olympics for
him.
|
| 00:14:45 | Take another look.
|
| 00:14:46 | It is the big old body of
langenbrunner in the way
blockingiller.
|
| 00:14:53 | U.s. up 1-0.
|
| 00:14:55 | Bad clearance here by the u.s.
|
| 00:14:59 | Go to go get this by miller.
|
| 00:15:01 | Out of position.
|
| 00:15:03 | And you cannot come any closer
to scoring and yet not score.
|
| 00:15:08 | And so it's still 1-0, though
not for long.
|
| 00:15:12 | Miller doesn't have to pose.
|
| 00:15:20 | U.s. takes it 2-0.
|
| 00:15:23 | They advance to face finland in
the semi.
|
| 00:15:29 | >> It could spoil your day.
|
| 00:15:33 | It was one of the character
builders and we came through in
the end and worked hard.
|
| 00:15:37 | >> It's easy to get frustrated
and we did a good job of proving
that we're able to be patient
and take what's given to us.
|
| 00:15:46 | >> People are talking to us as
underdogs, but we have played
with all the players in this
logan either against them or
with them and we are capable of
getting the job done.
|
| 00:15:58 | canada and russia, thought
it might be for gold.
|
| 00:16:02 | Last night, survival.
|
| 00:16:04 | The losers going home without a
medal.
|
| 00:16:07 | Boil through everyone.
|
| 00:16:11 | Getzlal, the early beneficiary.
|
| 00:16:16 | You feel that had to be huge for
the home folks.
|
| 00:16:20 | On the power play, leaving it --
a ripper and 2-0.
|
| 00:16:25 | They are pouring it on.
|
| 00:16:28 | Malkin with the turnover and
look at nash here, on the
charge.
|
| 00:16:34 | Finds him and he finds the back
of the net, 3-0 canada.
|
| 00:16:39 | Later in the first, 3-1.
|
| 00:16:42 | Watch this.
|
| 00:16:43 | In front of the net, goes down,
knocked down, he's up and
evently gets to the corner.
|
| 00:16:48 | He's going to get the puck and
jam it home.
|
| 00:16:52 | Canada up 4-1 after one and it
was looking like a blowout
early.
|
| 00:16:58 | 5-1 Game in the second.
|
| 00:17:00 | And the fight for the puck along
the board.
|
| 00:17:03 | Out with it to webber.
|
| 00:17:06 | 6-1, Canada.
|
| 00:17:15 | What a night for the goalkeeper.
|
| 00:17:18 | Down 7-3.
|
| 00:17:19 | On the power play, malkin
stoned.
|
| 00:17:22 | Remember, he went into the creep
and in place of marty.
|
| 00:17:27 | And then afterwards, getzlaf
into malkin's face.
|
| 00:17:37 | And then as he goes back the
other way, see himin taken down
by boil.
|
| 00:17:43 | Frustration from russia, really
starting to show as crosby beat
russia, 7-3.
|
| 00:17:51 | >> We knew what we needed to do
and we knew what we were capable
of.
|
| 00:17:56 | We are playing a good hockey
team going in and we used our
skating and speed.
|
| 00:18:02 | >> We are getting more
comfortable as the tournament is
going along.
|
| 00:18:07 | The -- we are getting used to
the crowd and energy and we just
had a really good first period
and took care of business right
away.
|
| 00:18:17 | it bears mentioning that
ovechkin disappearing against
canada.
|
| 00:18:23 | He and his russian mates they
thought they would be going home
with a medal.
|
| 00:18:32 | fill face finland, rematch
of the gold medal game back in
1980.
|
| 00:18:38 | And canada looking at another
shot at the u.s.
|
| 00:18:41 | They will face slovakia.
|
| 00:18:45 | And we are asking, how do you
is going to
finish after reaching the semis,
gold, silver, bronze or come
home without a medal.
|
| 00:19:00 | Log on your vote.
|
| 00:19:01 | We'll have your results a bit
later in the program.
|
| 00:19:05 | Hannah.
|
| 00:19:06 | number three purdue
looking for number one seed and
then suffer injury to one of
their biggest stars.
|
| 00:19:13 | Let's look at what happened last
night in minnesota.
|
| 00:19:17 | Hummel planting his right leg.
|
| 00:19:20 | What does this do for the
boilermakers?
|
| 00:19:23 | >> Last year, purdue went
through hummel with a back
injury but not having him for
the foreseeable future, this
could lower their seed from a
one to a two.
|
| 00:19:37 | like what we saw 10
years ago.
|
| 00:19:40 | Westbrook, getting theriendly
roll.
|
| 00:19:43 | A tight game without hummel.
|
| 00:19:46 | Keaton grant, a pullup jumper.
|
| 00:19:50 | Little over four seconds left
for minnesota.
|
| 00:19:53 | >> You want to put the ball in
the hands of the driver.
|
| 00:19:57 | They get a good luck.
|
| 00:19:59 | Hannah: falls short.
|
| 00:20:02 | Purdue escaped without hummel
59-58.
|
| 00:20:05 | Perhaps that number one seed
perhaps going by the wayside.
|
| 00:20:11 | Victories against tennessee,
wake and west virginia.
|
| 00:20:16 | All eyes on the matchup at
michigan state.
|
| 00:20:21 | >> Michigan state has suffered
for not having lucas.
|
| 00:20:25 | Unless hummel comes back
healthy, he would have to think
this is going to hurt their seed
and still be in the ncaa
tournament.
|
| 00:20:34 | But this hurts their seed.
|
| 00:20:36 | let's look at the
gophers, a losses, three-point
overtime defeats both of which
happened on the road.
|
| 00:20:46 | On the bubble, in or out?
|
| 00:20:48 | >> They have played their way
onto the bubble.
|
| 00:20:51 | This team has become unified.
|
| 00:20:53 | Carter comes off the bench.
|
| 00:20:55 | His sister has cancer.
|
| 00:20:57 | They have all shaved their heads
and has been a unifying force
and came in winners two in a
row.
|
| 00:21:03 | They suffered bad losses,
overtime losses to indiana and
michigan.
|
| 00:21:08 | Minnesota is out, but they do
have a schedule in which they
could easily win out.
|
| 00:21:13 | And if they were to win out,
including a win at illinois this
weekend, you could see them
hopping back on the bubble
because as we go through the
highlights of last night, the
teams that needed a win simply
lost.
|
| 00:21:27 | So the bubble has yet expanded.
|
| 00:21:30 | It will contract at some point,
minnesota is out but they could
play on to that cut line.
|
| 00:21:36 | notre dame, last night,
they were hosting pittsburgh.
|
| 00:21:42 | Notre dame without harangody,
again with the knee injury.
|
| 00:21:47 | Number 44 hanging in the
rafters.
|
| 00:21:51 | >> My number.
|
| 00:21:52 | Hannah: well, maybe not anymore.
|
| 00:21:55 | >> They were unbelievable.
|
| 00:21:57 | They executed as well
offensively against pittsburgh
as any team you're go to go see.
|
| 00:22:04 | they were forced to slow
it down.
|
| 00:22:06 | It was working well.
|
| 00:22:08 | >> Notre dame was able to hold
them to 53 points and did so by
limiting their second-chance
opportunities by not turning the
basketball over and taking away
all driving lanes making it
difficult for the pittsburgh
team to score in the half court.
|
| 00:22:24 | didn't hurt that the
irish were 10-18 from
three-point land and get a win
over pittsburgh.
|
| 00:22:31 | 500
in the big east.
|
| 00:22:35 | They have losses to rutgers, st.
|
| 00:22:39 | John's, where does this put
them?
|
| 00:22:41 | >> They aren't in.
|
| 00:22:43 | You still have uconn at home and
they have a schedule here where
they could win.
|
| 00:22:48 | They have to go to georgetown
this weekend.
|
| 00:22:51 | Is it plausible that they win
that game, beat marquette and
connecticut?
|
| 00:22:56 | Absolutely.
|
| 00:22:56 | But as of now, though, you look
at what they have, they are like
minnesota.
|
| 00:23:02 | They played a soft nonconference
schedule.
|
| 00:23:05 | The ucla win is not a top 100
win.
|
| 00:23:09 | Who could have thought that.
|
| 00:23:11 | They're out.
|
| 00:23:12 | But because they are in the big
time conference and finished up
with three potential teams, they
could play on that bubble or in
the tournament if they win,
especially having two quality
wins at home, west virginia and
pittsburgh.
|
| 00:23:27 | If they could get a road victory
like georgetown, notre dame
could put themselves on the cut
line.
|
| 00:23:36 | they get the win without
harangody, so a lot is hinging
on his health.
|
| 00:23:42 | >> They nearly beelt louisville.
|
| 00:23:44 | Some level, they are playing
better defensively because they
aren't as dependent on the
senior superstar.
|
| 00:23:54 | san diego state, they
are at number 11 and they're at
b.y.u.
|
| 00:24:02 | And san diego coach saying
fredette is very, very good.
|
| 00:24:06 | Why can't you stop him.
|
| 00:24:08 | They are saying that everywhere.
|
| 00:24:10 | And here he is in the first
half.
|
| 00:24:12 | >> Very efficient team.
|
| 00:24:13 | They went through a stretch
where they were playing
selfishly.
|
| 00:24:18 | Fredette, he is from new york in
the albany area and has lit up
college basketball.
|
| 00:24:25 | here he is with the skip
pass.
|
| 00:24:28 | Three in the corner.
|
| 00:24:30 | >> 24,000 Strong.
|
| 00:24:32 | So efficient.
|
| 00:24:32 | And this is an inexperienced san
diego state team.
|
| 00:24:36 | And once again, fredette, up
behind the basket.
|
| 00:24:40 | He is a study.
|
| 00:24:42 | 26, Six rebounds, five assists
and one turnover.
|
| 00:24:46 | san diego state, not a
signature nonconference win.
|
| 00:24:49 | They have wins over new mexico,
wins over unlv, in or out?
|
| 00:24:54 | >> They're out.
|
| 00:24:56 | But they're in that position
where they could play way in.
|
| 00:24:59 | The difference between san diego
state and notre dame and
minnesota with 2-6 versus the
r.p.i. top 50.
|
| 00:25:09 | So they'll probably have to get
at least the finals of the
mountain west tournament to get
into the ncaa tournament.
|
| 00:25:18 | They are a dangerous club.
|
| 00:25:21 | But they walked into a dog fight
last night.
|
| 00:25:24 | The more troubling loss, the one
that's going to keep them out is
the two-point loss at home to
b.y.u.
|
| 00:25:33 | cougars' win sets up a
showdown this weekend coming up
with new mexico.
|
| 00:25:40 | Doug gottlieb, always great to
have you.
|
| 00:25:43 | this next ball club, fair
to say, is in.
|
| 00:25:48 | Uconn women, unbeaten, facing
syracuse.
|
| 00:25:52 | Moore faced the orange, she went
for a career high 40.
|
| 00:25:56 | She had a career high 20 boards
at the carrier dome last night.
|
| 00:26:00 | And three from the top of the
key, to the second half we go as
uconn is running.
|
| 00:26:07 | She went for 38-20 last night.
|
| 00:26:12 | Scramble on the floor for cloose
ball.
|
| 00:26:14 | There is chippiness.
|
| 00:26:16 | Look, hayes bumping heads with
morrow.
|
| 00:26:21 | She is swinging.
|
| 00:26:23 | She is taking an early shower.
|
| 00:26:26 | Uconn goes on to win.
|
| 00:26:27 | We are going to flash back,
january 7, 2009, I mentioned the
chippiness.
|
| 00:26:34 | Gino getting into it with
players.
|
| 00:26:38 | Last night, it was not as bad.
|
| 00:26:43 | Uconn wins easily 87-66.
|
| 00:26:46 | And so the uconn women have
continued their part for the
longest win streak for the
history of division i
basketball.
|
| 00:26:55 | They are three shy of their
women's and school records 70
games.
|
| 00:26:59 | After that ucla men's in the
early 1970's, 88 straight, that
they will be setting their eyes
upon.
|
| 00:27:08 | according to lead sources,
pittsburgh steelers hampton has
agreed to a three-year, $ 1
million deal.
|
| 00:27:19 | Avoiding the franchise tag.
|
| 00:27:21 | He had 43 tackles and two and a
half sacks last season for the
steelers.
|
| 00:27:27 | Over a century poet, a poet
wrote to a diing athlete.
|
| 00:27:35 | It resonated then and now,
something that ladainian
tomlinson now knows.
|
| 00:27:45 | Tomlinson remained productive
long past the average expiration
date, but to do so still, he
will now have to leave san
diego.
|
| 00:27:54 | Tomlinson, smart lad to let
times slip away overcome
yesterday at the thought of it
all.
|
| 00:28:10 | >> I said I wasn't going to do
this.
|
| 00:28:20 | Sometimes emotions is what makes
a person.
|
| 00:28:27 | And as you guys know I've always
wore my emotions on my sleeve.
|
| 00:28:38 | For that, I'm not sorry, and i
thank you.
|
| 00:28:43 | I'm excited about the future, i
really am because for the first
time I do have the opportunity
to see what's out there and kind
of not really pick and choose
because I don't know who is
going to want my services.
|
| 00:28:56 | But to really, you know, find
out where I may fit in, I have
always said my number one goal
is to win a championship.
|
| 00:29:04 | And so, you know, it gives me, i
guess confidence and relief to
know that guys have gone on to
win championships.
|
| 00:29:12 | This isn't the end of the road
at all.
|
| 00:29:15 | I'm not retiring.
|
| 00:29:16 | So I'm very excited and I really
believe I'm going to have that
opportunity to win a
championship.
|
| 00:29:23 | tomlinson is on his way to
canton after the nine years he
spent in san diego.
|
| 00:29:29 | How many stops on the way, will
be him to decide.
|
| 00:29:33 | He follows emmett smith and rice
in total touchdowns scored.
|
| 00:29:44 | That is a league company to
keep.
|
| 00:29:46 | 12,000 Rushing yards placed him
at eight on the all-time list.
|
| 00:29:52 | top prospects
participating in the combine.
|
| 00:33:41 | "sportscenter" right
now, the wizards bought out the
final year of ilgauskas'
contract.
|
| 00:33:50 | Ilgauskas free to sign with any
team immediately except for
cleveland, but under league
rules, he can wait 30 days to
resign with the cavs.
|
| 00:33:59 | This is right-hander strass burg
at spring training debut for the
nationals expected on march 9
against the tigers.
|
| 00:34:07 | The number one pick in the june
draft.
|
| 00:34:11 | And texas said yesterday that
the longhorns have not thought
with regard to the expansion.
|
| 00:34:19 | Big ten announcing it will
explore options that it will add
a 12th school and will texas be
the 12th team?
|
| 00:34:32 | future is soon to be made,
sleepers soon to be found,
starting today, indianapolis,
again the center of the nfl
world as the scouting sbine
brings the elites together and
execute their very best and tell
you can see here, a
schedule
of events, first hitting the
field saturday at the combine,
offensive linemen and
specialists.
|
| 00:35:02 | And then it's offensive skill
position players taking the
field on sunday and defensive
players hitting the field the
following two days.
|
| 00:35:11 | To discuss each and every one of
these players, a man who knows
them all very well.
|
| 00:35:18 | Mel, as we kick this thing off,
they will be in attendance for
the interview but the tops not
doing any throwing, want to wait
for their pro days.
|
| 00:35:32 | Where do they stand now and we
start with sam bradford.
|
| 00:35:37 | >> He will have the opportunity
to throw before the nfl draft.
|
| 00:35:40 | But because of the injury, you
will see not see him deal with
fresh from a pass rush.
|
| 00:35:47 | He is the unknown moving
forward.
|
| 00:35:50 | He had all day to throw.
|
| 00:35:52 | He did do well against florida
and texas when he was pressured,
but start to finish, but I have
leap of faith that the accuracy
will move forward into the nfl
and translate.
|
| 00:36:05 | In terms of claws omp n, he will
have the opportunity to throw as
well.
|
| 00:36:11 | I like everything I have seen.
|
| 00:36:12 | The interview process at the
combine will help him.
|
| 00:36:17 | Momentum leading up to the time
he does throw and the draft.
|
| 00:36:20 | Next quarterback in line in
terms of the quarterbacks not
throwing, mccoy from texas.
|
| 00:36:28 | The injury against alabama
prevented him from moving
through the process and
re-establishing himself as a
late one or second round pick.
|
| 00:36:37 | He is in the third-round range,
mccoy is.
|
| 00:36:43 | Then tebow, I have said all
along, fourth round is where i
would draft him.
|
| 00:36:49 | I have said maybe first, now i
think second or third round.
|
| 00:36:52 | If someone will draft him as a
quarterback hoping to tweak that
delivery and develop him two,
three years down the road as a
starting quarterback.
|
| 00:37:02 | That's wishful thinking.
|
| 00:37:03 | he has come on this
program and said nope, I'm going
to be a quarterback at the next
level.
|
| 00:37:10 | We saw video of him retooling
that throwing motion.
|
| 00:37:14 | How do you think the work he is
doing will impact where he has
taken it and what position?
|
| 00:37:20 | >> You are throwing it in air
and not in game situations.
|
| 00:37:24 | Doing this back in august, you
would have seem him be accurate,
change his mechanics and be a
quarterback that puts up the
numbers, so the questions that
we had, josh, are still there.
|
| 00:37:38 | If you like him as a
quarterback, not much has
changed.
|
| 00:37:42 | It has moved down a little bit
in your confidence.
|
| 00:37:44 | If you did like him, nothing has
changed that.
|
| 00:37:49 | So I don't think a lot has
changed except for the fact that
the people who like tebow may
not like him quite as much
because of what we have seen at
the practices.
|
| 00:38:00 | if he had done this back
in august and I wonder with his
dream to play in the nfl, why
didn't he make the change before
now?
|
| 00:38:09 | >> At this stage in your career
to change your delivery and
remain a quarterback that can go
out there to react to what he
sees is difficult.
|
| 00:38:19 | If you think too much, you
aren't going to perform.
|
| 00:38:22 | Let's not try to fix what is
broken.
|
| 00:38:26 | He won a national championship
and had a chance to do that this
year, the parties said, let's
leave it alone.
|
| 00:38:32 | If your delivery is not perfect,
there are other quarterbacks
that didn't have the ideal
delivery and they made it.
|
| 00:38:42 | all the analysis pouring
in on tim tebow.
|
| 00:38:48 | Mel, appreciate it.

|
| 00:42:41 | white sox manager ozzie
guillen on an open mike,
entertainment that helps us get
through the dog days of summer.
|
| 00:42:52 | Ozzie and were going to shoot
segments.
|
| 00:42:56 | Apparently that's ok, but ozzie
tweeting?
|
| 00:42:59 | Not going over so well with the
general manager, ken williams,
who called a meeting with his
manager.
|
| 00:43:06 | Guillen has more than 11,000
followers within a day of
opening his account.
|
| 00:43:12 | Despite offering up such tweets
as, quote, what I saw on the
field today was a lot of grass,
end quote.
|
| 00:43:19 | His comments to the media on the
subject are much more ozzie.
|
| 00:43:23 | Here's what he had to say, quote
--
grapefruit express rolls
through florida in spring
training today.
|
| 00:44:05 | Orlando, florida, check out the
atlanta braves camp at walt
disney world and chris singleton
reporting that it's not quite as
warm as he would have wished,
nonetheless -- well, much warmer
than where we are.
|
| 00:44:20 | Chris, we are in orlando to talk
atlanta braves.
|
| 00:44:22 | This thing with ozzie guillen,
you are a former white sox and a
fellow tweeter, so given your
experience, what's your take on
ozzie starting up a twitter
account and how that's going to
play within the organization?
|
| 00:44:38 | >> I'm still smiling now because
I'm laughing from ozzie's
quotes.
|
| 00:44:43 | He is probably going to pick up
another 15,000 followers today,
because he is a polarizing
individual.
|
| 00:44:49 | But the reality is that the
white sox and kenny williams --
kenny williams is a private
person.
|
| 00:44:57 | This is the last thing he wants.
|
| 00:44:58 | He is not excited about this
reality show and then to have
your manager who at times can be
a loose cannon who has a phone
and twitter account that can put
things out any time of the day.
|
| 00:45:10 | And if he puts out half of what
is on his mind, it will be
troubling.
|
| 00:45:17 | It will be interesting.
|
| 00:45:19 | Any time a professional athlete,
public figure, you don't have
much in private.
|
| 00:45:24 | If you are going to tweet, it
has been to be fillered through
person and it takes away
the fun that ozzie wants to
have.
|
| 00:45:34 | how do they reconcile
participating in a reality show
and then telling your manager he
can't do this?
|
| 00:45:40 | >> The reality show will be
edited and will cut out certain
things and bleep out certain
things but with ozzie and his
twitter account, he can fire off
00 in the
morning.
|
| 00:45:53 | If a player says ozzie tweeted
00 in the morning, he wants
us to get our sleep and what was
he doing?
|
| 00:46:01 | There could be all kinds of
problems.
|
| 00:46:04 | When there are things on your
mind and you say it's going to
be personal stuff I'm going to
share but ultimately something
will get out there.
|
| 00:46:12 | Any time you talk or tweet a
lot, you will run into some
trouble when you have people
paying attention to your every
move.
|
| 00:46:20 | this has led to some
leagues having official twitter
policies or considering that.
|
| 00:46:25 | We'll see that about major
league baseball.
|
| 00:46:28 | Let's talk about the braves.
|
| 00:46:30 | Box cox's final season with the
team.
|
| 00:46:34 | The 68-year-old entering the
season at the hem, longest
tenure among active managers.
|
| 00:46:41 | The braves and hudson have
agreed to a $28 million,
three-year extension.
|
| 00:46:48 | E.r.a. of .361.
|
| 00:46:51 | Braves aren't going to deal with
wagner, who ranks sixth on the
career list with 385 safes.
|
| 00:46:58 | Appeared in 17 games for the
mets and red sox.
|
| 00:47:02 | And more pitching moves, atlanta
trading vazquez in return for
cabrera.
|
| 00:47:09 | And cash in that deal.
|
| 00:47:11 | So we have the end of an era
with bobby cox leaving.
|
| 00:47:17 | Is this a year for transition
for the braves or is it
legitimate expectatio
contend for the post-season?
|
| 00:47:26 | >> I was talking with bobby a
few minutes ago and for him, his
final game would be the final
out of the world series this
year.
|
| 00:47:34 | But we all know it's going to be
a very difficult challenge with
the competition in the national
league, the phillies are the
team to beat in the national
league east.
|
| 00:47:45 | louis cardinals are strong
as well.
|
| 00:47:47 | This year, it is interesting.
|
| 00:47:49 | When you look at the names, tim
hudson, he referred to tim
hudson as having a new arm,
fully removed from that surgery.
|
| 00:47:58 | He is good to go.
|
| 00:48:00 | Billy wagner has been brought
in.
|
| 00:48:04 | I was talking with him, he was
so impressed that off-season
that bobby c flew up and
talked to him abo the prospect
of pitching for the braves.
|
| 00:48:16 | Billy is happy to be here.
|
| 00:48:19 | Understand what the managers are
looking for.
|
| 00:48:22 | So he is excited.
|
| 00:48:23 | The key is going to be health.
|
| 00:48:24 | We talked about the two guys
getting healthy, but what is
important for the guy they added
to be in the middle of this
lineup to be healthy and put up
the numbers.
|
| 00:48:36 | He will be between jones and mc
cann.
|
| 00:48:43 | Jones said if he had a year like
2009, he might be following
bobby cox into retirement as
well.
|
| 00:48:50 | we will see that all
season.
|
| 00:48:54 | Chris singleton, as always, we
appreciate it.
|
| 00:48:58 | And tomorrow, chris rolls on
with "grapefruit express tour"
as he visits the houston astros
in florida .
|
| 00:49:14 | doug gottlieb joining us,
you said it before.
|
| 00:49:17 | This is a huge bubble at this
point.
|
| 00:49:19 | There are a lot of teams with
issues still to come.
|
| 00:49:25 | Issues for both oklahoma state.
|
| 00:49:30 | Pittman easily layup inside.
|
| 00:49:32 | >> Pill gramas suspended for
one game.
|
| 00:49:38 | Page looks like ali.
|
| 00:49:40 | That's not exactly the matchup.
|
| 00:49:44 | Josh: giving away 100 pounds.
|
| 00:49:47 | No foul called on the flay.
|
| 00:49:50 | >> He has lost weight.
|
| 00:49:52 | >> Puts that jam again.
|
| 00:49:55 | Just a beast in the lane.
|
| 00:49:57 | Pittman inside jam.
|
| 00:49:59 | He goes 16-8, three blocks.
|
| 00:50:02 | Bradley stepping up.
|
| 00:50:04 | All the way down court for the
layup.
|
| 00:50:07 | Texas taking it 69-59.
|
| 00:50:10 | And so, doug, they were top
ranked at one point.
|
| 00:50:16 | They are at 21.
|
| 00:50:17 | Big win for them.
|
| 00:50:18 | How about the cowboys?
|
| 00:50:20 | We are talking about them every
day.
|
| 00:50:23 | >> Here's what is keeping them
solidly in the field.
|
| 00:50:28 | If that's your worst loss, at
oklahoma.
|
| 00:50:35 | Arguably in the conversation
most disappointing national
team, but that's not a bad loss.
|
| 00:50:40 | What is troubling for oklahoma
state, who is still in the field
as of now is that they have
kansas coming up on saturday at
home.
|
| 00:50:47 | Then they go to texas a&m and
you lose both of those games,
all of a sudden, you lost six of
your last nine games, those
losses without your point guard
and nebraska game at home at the
end of the season.
|
| 00:51:03 | They did beat baylor.
|
| 00:51:05 | That helped stablize them.
|
| 00:51:07 | But in heading forward, we
talked about these teams that
could play their way in.
|
| 00:51:13 | Oklahoma state has a very
difficult schedule upcoming.
|
| 00:51:17 | you don't want to see the
section committee watch you lose
so many games without a player
you aren't going to have for the
rest of the year.
|
| 00:51:25 | Couple teams went up against one
another.
|
| 00:51:28 | Dayton and temple.
|
| 00:51:30 | Looking to push through on the
way to bubble.
|
| 00:51:33 | Temple up seven.
|
| 00:51:36 | And then allen, then to moore
for the lay-in.
|
| 00:51:43 | Temple up 11.
|
| 00:51:44 | Dayton looking to make a
comeback and another three with
40 seconds left.
|
| 00:51:49 | >> Their offense was pathetic.
|
| 00:51:52 | They shot 16% in the first half.
|
| 00:51:55 | Simply to be around in the
second half was a miracle.
|
| 00:51:58 | Will they run away and hide.
|
| 00:52:02 | we're going to keep
ongoing.
|
| 00:52:06 | Marquette, they want to be
hanging around on the bubble.
|
| 00:52:09 | We look at the resume.
|
| 00:52:12 | >> The resume is decent in terms
top
50, 3-7.
|
| 00:52:19 | All of those seven losses were
close losses, but still losses,.
|
| 00:52:29 | Josh: here, butler.
|
| 00:52:32 | We go scomboo overtime, under a
minute to play.
|
| 00:52:36 | Marquette down two.
|
| 00:52:38 | Johnson, missing, getting his
own board.
|
| 00:52:42 | Misses the putback.
|
| 00:52:44 | Tied the game at 61.
|
| 00:52:46 | Less than 5:00 to go.
|
| 00:52:48 | Butler losing the ball, but gets
it back and hits the fadeaway
jumper.
|
| 00:52:54 | Marquette takes it in overtime
63-61.
|
| 00:52:58 | What is the selection committee
going to do, an awful lot.
|
| 00:53:02 | >> They are going to take two
resumes and put it up side by
side.
|
| 00:53:08 | What do you think?
|
| 00:53:11 | >> Big east teamers, big 10
team.
|
| 00:53:14 | This is the r. pmple i.
|
| 00:53:16 | It's a computer -- r.p.i.
|
| 00:53:20 | It's a computer and blunt
instrument.
|
| 00:53:23 | It takes the numbers and the
numbers don't lie here.
|
| 00:53:26 | Dayton is taking on some more.
|
| 00:53:28 | louis and lost
in another road game to
first-place temple and blew out
xavier at home.
|
| 00:53:38 | But georgia tech went way back
in november.
|
| 00:53:42 | Marquette has a bad loss not
just to due paul but to n.c.
|
| 00:53:49 | State.
|
| 00:53:49 | They have georgetown.
|
| 00:53:50 | They have some quality wins in
conference play.
|
| 00:53:52 | But mies mation -- estimation, i
would put dayton in ahead of
marquette as of now, but
marquette has a chance to put
themselves in the ncaa
tournament with their remaining
games.
|
| 00:54:09 | You win two of the last three,
you end up with 11 big east wins
and quality wins out of
conference, I think marquette
will be fine.
|
| 00:54:18 | Dayton is in a spot here.
|
| 00:54:19 | They have to go on the road to
richmond.
|
| 00:54:22 | And they have been struggling on
the road as of late.
|
| 00:54:25 | They could play their way out
especially considering they have
now lost three consecutive road
games and most of their quality
wins are at home.
|
| 00:54:35 | could play in perhaps
slotted just bit ahead.
|
| 00:54:38 | It bears mentioning, big east,
you figure you are running
there, you're run.
|
| 00:54:44 | Don't sleep on the a 10.
|
| 00:54:47 | Doug gottlieb breaking it all
down.

| 00:00:00 | Wizards
have bought out the final year
of zydrunas ilgauskas' contract
after he was acquired in that
antawn jamison trade.
|
| 00:00:08 | We expected this.
|
| 00:00:09 | I go significant now free to
sign with any team except the
cavaliers, unless he waits 30
days.
|
| 00:00:15 | And also at this hour,
pittsburgh steelers nose tackle
casey hampton has agreed to a
three-year, $21 million deal,
$11 million guaranteed.
|
| 00:00:23 | The steelers were facing the
decision of franchise tag him
or not.
|
| 00:00:26 | We'll see this f this deal
helped the vince wilfork deal
in new england get done.
|
| 00:00:30 | Chris: on that front, 4:00 p.m.
|
| 00:00:32 | Today, the deadline for teams
to put the franchise tag on
players.
|
| 00:00:35 | Deals already done -- the
panthers deciding want to tag
julius peppers, a move that
would have put him at $20
million for the upcoming year.
|
| 00:00:42 | Patriots have put the
nonexclusive tag on nose tackle
vince wilfork.
|
| 00:00:46 | That means the team has the
trite match any other team's
offer or let wilfork go for two
first-round picks.
|
| 00:00:52 | The saints will not franchise
darren sharper, allowing the
pro bowl safety to hit the
market.
|
| 00:00:57 | He tied for the league lead in
pits last year.
|
| 00:01:00 | He had nine for the champs.
|
| 00:01:01 | And in another money move, the
texans will not franchise
quarterback dunta robinson.
|
| 00:01:07 | Franchised last season at
almost $10 million, many regard
him as the best available
cornerback in the market.
|
| 00:01:13 | And the raiders franchise
defensive end richard seymour.
|
| 00:01:16 | It came at a cost of more than
$12 million for the upcoming
season, but the raiders traded
a first-round pick to get him
before last year.
|
| 00:01:25 | com sore writer john
clayton is joining us live on
"sportscenter" from the nfl
combine in indianapolis.
|
| 00:01:30 | 00
today to franchise tag
their players.
|
| 00:01:36 | Free agency begins next friday.
|
| 00:01:37 | That in mind, what's the latest
concerning the game's biggest
names out there?
|
| 00:01:42 | >> Well, looks like there's
only going to be about six
franchise players, but one of
them is jeff reerked the kick
for her the pittsburgh
steelers.
|
| 00:01:49 | They were considering
transitioning him, and once
they got the deal with casey
hampton done, they decided then
instead of transitioning him,
they'll make sure reed doesn't
go anywhere.
|
| 00:01:59 | They get him for one year at
$2.418 million.
|
| 00:02:03 | Olindo mair is the other
franchise kicker, but reed at
least stays in pittsburgh for
now.
|
| 00:02:07 | In indianapolis, they are not
going to franchise gary
brackett at this stage, hoping
they can get a deal in the $7
million-plus a year range.
|
| 00:02:15 | They want to make sure he signs
on a long-term basis.
|
| 00:02:18 | They didn't to want restrict
things, but they may have to
risk him going into free agency
to get some kind a deal done.
|
| 00:02:23 | Active negotiations continue,
though, for brackett.
|
| 00:02:26 | They hope to get something done
in indianapolis with brackett
by march 5.
|
| 00:02:29 | as mentioned, john
clayton there at the nfl
combine.
|
| 00:02:32 | John, players arrived
yesterday.
|
| 00:02:34 | The combine runs a week.
|
| 00:02:35 | What's the buzz so far?
|
| 00:02:37 | >> Wrbling the buzz so far, the
miami dolphins were at the
podium today talking about some
moves that they are considering
making.
|
| 00:02:44 | They have started talks with
chad pennington to try to bring
him back.
|
| 00:02:47 | They would like him to be their
backup quarterback to chad
henne.
|
| 00:02:50 | That worked out very well.
|
| 00:02:51 | Engineer ireland, the general
manager, also came out and said
that they are interested in
linebackers.
|
| 00:02:57 | Now, without naming names, that
puts them in the hunt for
karlos dansby, considered to be
the top linebacker in free
agency.
|
| 00:03:03 | Expect something to happen
there after march 5.
|
| 00:03:06 | Of course, joey porter is going
chicago, you
have julius peppers as a
candidate for defensive end
job, but still most people in
chicago feel the bears are
going to be looking more at a
lower end guy like aaron
kampman of the green bay
packers, and final, the detroit
lions, thevt second pick in the
draft, they have a chance to
get a defensive tackle, but,
like most teams in the top
three, they're willing to shop,
maybe try to trade down.
|
| 00:03:30 | They need more than just one
plarkse but good luck on trying
to make a trade down from
number two.
|
| 00:03:35 | lots of names, lots of
news, a dizzying time of year.
|
| 00:03:39 | John clayton bringing us the
latest from the nfl.
|
| 00:03:43 | boston, orlando,
cleveland, dallas, denver, the
lakers.
|
| 00:03:46 | Those are the six first-place
teams in the nba.
|
| 00:03:48 | Jalen rose here to talk about
two teams who played last
night, dallas and los angeles.
|
| 00:03:54 | Of course, kobe bryant recently
back.
|
| 00:03:56 | It's not the first game back
from injury, it's the second
one, especial back-to-back.
|
| 00:04:00 | >> Absolutely.
|
| 00:04:01 | Kobe bryant is actually human.
|
| 00:04:03 | He's in his 14th year, going
against a dallas maverick team
that was game for the
challefpblg it's always good d
when the offensive player
misses.
|
| 00:04:12 | now jason terry, I guess
they're changing occupy him.
|
| 00:04:15 | >> Yeah, when you're kobe
bryant, he really didn't
attack.
|
| 00:04:19 | He only attempted two free
throws.
|
| 00:04:20 | Normally a great scorer like
him gets to the free-throw line
much more because he's more
aggressive.
|
| 00:04:24 | But give dallas credit.
|
| 00:04:26 | They were up for the challenge.
|
| 00:04:27 | John: they were.
|
| 00:04:28 | Rough start, 0-5 in the first
for kobe right there.
|
| 00:04:31 | Dallas, winners of four
straight coming in.
|
| 00:04:34 | Something that went right for
kobe.
|
| 00:04:38 | His first bucket of the game,
he passes reggie miller for
spth on the all-time nba
scoring list.
|
| 00:04:45 | >> People sometimes don't want give him credit.
|
| 00:04:48 | That's one of the greatest
players in nba history.
|
| 00:04:49 | John: no doubt about that.
|
| 00:04:51 | Dirk nowitzki, oh, man, bopped
on the noggin, and it goes.
|
| 00:04:54 | >> And he likes to drive one
way, get off balance, reload.
|
| 00:04:58 | That's a very high percentage
shot for dirk, basket and the
foul.
|
| 00:05:01 | under a minute to go, and
kobe drives on shawn marion.
|
| 00:05:04 | Lakers within three.
|
| 00:05:05 | They want to stay within three.
|
| 00:05:07 | Here they are inside, and
interesting play here.
|
| 00:05:10 | Ball was going to go to kobe,
and here he comes.
|
| 00:05:13 | Down by three.
|
| 00:05:14 | >> Tip poirningts I'm feeling
like kobe's going pull up for
three, and he does, and he's
going make, it but he doesn't.
|
| 00:05:20 | Pau gasol is going to get
rebound, and he doesn't.
|
| 00:05:23 | Dallas mavericks get a break.
|
| 00:05:24 | They get a chance to inbound
the basketball, up three.
|
| 00:05:28 | they reviewed that gasol
fly make sure he tipped it, and
he did.
|
| 00:05:34 | >> If you're derek fisher, you
can't gamble, because time is
your best friend.
|
| 00:05:37 | Now the clock keeps 10:00ing.
|
| 00:05:38 | Dallas mavericks do a good job
of moving the basketball around
the floor.
|
| 00:05:42 | Lakers can't foul.
|
| 00:05:43 | And by the time up it gets to
dirk, he's only 90-plus from
the line.
|
| 00:05:48 | John: yeah, automatic.
|
| 00:05:49 | So the mavs, a nice win at
home.
|
| 00:05:51 | They've won five straight
games.
|
| 00:05:53 | They're in first place in the
southwest, 3 1/2-game lead over
san antonio.
|
| 00:05:58 | Lakers certainly comfortable in
the pacific, 7 1/2-game lead
over phoenix.
|
| 00:06:02 | Lakers have struggle this had
season against the nba's best.
|
| 00:06:05 | Against the top eight teams,
500 and
under 100 points per game.
|
| 00:06:11 | That's interesting.
|
| 00:06:12 | They've feasted on the rest of
the league, going 36-7 while
holding those opponents to 96
points per game.
|
| 00:06:21 | Hmm.
|
| 00:06:21 | Back with jalen rose.
|
| 00:06:22 | Let's talk about the mavericks.
|
| 00:06:23 | They're 5-1 since the trade for
caron butler.
|
| 00:06:26 | At the time, it looked like a
good trade, certainly looked
like they got better.
|
| 00:06:29 | Darblings utah, denver,
separated by one game in the
west.
|
| 00:06:33 | Which team in your mind zpashe
that stat was interesting.
|
| 00:06:35 | Didn't realize the lakers were
struggling against good teams,
which I think gives the other
teams hope out there -- what
team should have the most hope?
|
| 00:06:41 | >> You're defending world
champion, you're going get
every team's best shot.
|
| 00:06:45 | I think denver is set up to be
the second best team.
|
| 00:06:48 | They have a go-to scorer and
candidate in carmelo
anthony.
|
| 00:06:52 | But the guard play is key.
|
| 00:06:55 | Chauncey billups, ty lawson,
steady guard play in the
backcourt, and toughness up
front with nene, and you have
kenyon martin.
|
| 00:07:01 | And next I take the dallas
mavericks.
|
| 00:07:03 | I appreciate the fact they made
that trade for caron but lerks
but don't underestimate brendan
haywood.
|
| 00:07:08 | He's averaging a double-double
since the trade they went for
it, and they're right up there.
|
| 00:07:13 | bynum got off to a good
start last night, and then
haywood shut him down.
|
| 00:07:18 | Jal suspect back lamplete he's
going to tell us where kevin
durant ranks among the best nba
players.
|
| 00:07:23 | It may surprise you, so come
back for that.
|
| 00:07:26 | Speak of caron but lerks the
nba office took a straw poll,
and they decide that had
butler's habit of chewing
straws while he plays is a
no-no.
|
| 00:07:36 | Butler disclose in addition
chat he started chewing straws
in teenagers as a teenager and
it became a habit.
|
| 00:07:41 | So the nba executive phoned the
mavs and said no more straws.
|
| 00:07:44 | >> Well, it's not the worst
thing about stu jackson, but i
see why you don't want kids in
high school doing it.
|
| 00:07:57 | it does seem a bit danger

|
| 00:12:08 | purdue's win streak
reaching double digits as doug
gottlieb joins us.
|
| 00:12:11 | They're leaders of the big ten.
|
| 00:12:12 | They have a huge showdown with
michigan state this weekend.
|
| 00:12:15 | However, a number one seed in
the tournament is now in doubt.
|
| 00:12:19 | Let's show you the bad news and
tell you why.
|
| 00:12:22 | Robbie hummel, first half, his
team's up 26-14 when he drives.
|
| 00:12:26 | He's called for a travel.
|
| 00:12:29 | But that's all sorts of bad.
|
| 00:12:31 | That right leg, it's awkward.
|
| 00:12:33 | He couldn't even put weight on
his neesm
>> it did not look good.
|
| 00:12:35 | I mean, I think the good story
is they came from behind, you
know, in transition.
|
| 00:12:41 | I thought keaton grant, who was
benched earlier in the year,
played a big part in their
comeback, but minnesota could
not go away.
|
| 00:12:47 | minnesota went on an
18-0 run at one point, and that
was westbrook putting them up
one.
|
| 00:12:53 | Here's keaton grant, though.
|
| 00:12:55 | 7
to play, he puts the
boilermakers back up one.
|
| 00:13:02 | Back come the gophers.
|
| 00:13:04 | >> Joseph got a good look here.
|
| 00:13:06 | Williams, the follow not in
time, and purdue escapes
minnesota.
|
| 00:13:11 | yeah, minnesota's third
one-point loss of the year.
|
| 00:13:14 | Now, we have seen injuries
affect the way the ncaa will
seed a team.
|
| 00:13:17 | Let's go back to 2000.
|
| 00:13:19 | You had kenyon martin.
|
| 00:13:20 | He broke his leg, and
cincinnati dropped from a one
to a two.
|
| 00:13:25 | But last year, ty law son, the
toe injury with carolina, that
was a question.
|
| 00:13:28 | And then also patty mills last
mary's missed a
few games, and they ended up
not making the tournament at
all.
|
| 00:13:35 | What do you think will happen
to purdue?
|
| 00:13:36 | >> Well, we have to look at
each one individually, ok?
|
| 00:13:39 | Patty mills came back in time
and did play in the w.c.c.
|
| 00:13:43 | Championship game and they were
i
thought they should have got
in.
|
| 00:13:46 | The committee didn't think so.
|
| 00:13:49 | This is the different and more
similar to the ken yor martin,
because it looks as if robbie
hummel won't play the rest of
this year.
|
| 00:13:56 | Let's hope he's all right.
|
| 00:13:57 | The junior has a great future
ahead of him.
|
| 00:13:59 | But let's say he doesn't play
between now and the end of the
I think they're
going drop the seed, unless
they win out.
|
| 00:14:05 | You know, you beat michigan
state without him, fine.
|
| 00:14:09 | They should have been in the
discussion for a one seed with
robbie hummel.
|
| 00:14:13 | But a blind man can see that
without robbie hummel they're
not the same basketball team.
|
| 00:14:17 | They're still very good.
|
| 00:14:19 | Jajuan johnson is playing
terrific.
|
| 00:14:21 | Moore could be the big ten
player of the year if not for
evan turner just taking ohio
state close to a big ten title.
|
| 00:14:26 | But I think they're going from
a one to a two.
|
| 00:14:29 | If they lose a couple of games,
it's at least plausible they
move from one to three.
|
| 00:14:33 | because you also have
sir sir sexuse duke right
behind them.
|
| 00:14:39 | >> You have villanova going to
syracuse, they can acquire some
good wins.
|
| 00:14:42 | Georgetown has good wins.
|
| 00:14:44 | It will be up to purdue to see
what they do from here on out,
but I don't think there's any
doubt they're going to drop at
least one seed line.
|
| 00:14:50 | minnesota sixth in the
big ten.
|
| 00:14:51 | They have at illinois,
michigan, iowa left on the
schedule.
|
| 00:14:54 | They're among the many bubble
teams.
|
| 00:14:57 | Doug's coming back later in the
show to tell us who's in and
who's out as of today.
|
| 00:15:01 | John?

|
| 00:15:11 | We're down to final four at the
olympics.
|
| 00:15:14 | Any surprises?
|
| 00:15:16 | would
still be here?
|
| 00:15:17 | >> I did not, no.
|
| 00:15:18 | I thought sweden would be there
and russia.
|
| 00:15:21 | well, they're both not
there anymore.
|
| 00:15:23 | Again, u.s.a. still in it.
|
| 00:15:24 | There they are, playing
switzerland.
|
| 00:15:26 | There was some concern,
matthew.
|
| 00:15:28 | Switzerland, very defensive
team.
|
| 00:15:29 | You knew this would be low
scoring.
|
| 00:15:30 | >> Yeah, and they have a great
goaltender in jonas hiller, who
played for anaheim in the nhl.
|
| 00:15:35 | And this is as close as it gets
in the first two periods.
|
| 00:15:38 | Just a battler, but that's the
swiss time.
|
| 00:15:42 | That's why they have the extra
time on the clock there.
|
| 00:15:44 | John: well done.
|
| 00:15:45 | It's the swiss, and they're
timing it.
|
| 00:15:47 | Hiller actually knocked this in
himself, but the entire puck
has to be over the red line,
and clearly not any part of the
puck really was.
|
| 00:15:54 | 0-0.
|
| 00:15:55 | That's an ease anyway-call so.
|
| 00:15:57 | We enter the final 20 minutes
still scoreless.
|
| 00:15:59 | on the power play,
trying to get the first goal.
|
| 00:16:03 | And the incredible athleticism
of zach parise, number 9, what
lateral movement, matthew.
|
| 00:16:09 | >> Terrific in front.
|
| 00:16:09 | They need him going.
|
| 00:16:10 | Rafalski has been an absolute
beast from the back end.
|
| 00:16:13 | But if you see parise calling
for the tip almost and just
jumping up and over and knocks
in the first of the game.
|
| 00:16:19 | it's like he's on tennis
shoes, he's like sydney cross
beefment 1-0 game.
|
| 00:16:24 | The next zpwole gigantic either
way, and the swiss think they
get it.
|
| 00:16:27 | How in the wide world of sports
doesn't this puck go in?
|
| 00:16:30 | >> And what a terrific play by
ryan military cut off the
angle, but it forces him to go
wide.
|
| 00:16:36 | I don't know how it doesn't go
in, because usually it hits the
post and usually it's a tap-in.
|
| 00:16:40 | John: more miller time.
|
| 00:16:41 | He looks so big and calm,
matthew.
|
| 00:16:43 | That's what you want your
goalie to be, don't you?
|
| 00:16:46 | >> He's such a good butterfly
goalie.
|
| 00:16:48 | Else so good on his angles and
so calm every single second.
|
| 00:16:52 | John: u.s.a. wins.
|
| 00:16:54 | >> People keep talking about us
as underdogs, but we've played
with all the players in this
league, and most of the players
that are here, we played with
them or against them, and i
think we're more than capable
to get the job done.
|
| 00:17:06 | >> It's easy to get frustrated,
and we did a good job of
proving that we're able to be
patient and take what's given
to us.
|
| 00:17:13 | we have to talk more
about zach parise.
|
| 00:17:16 | A lot of people in america
don't know, he's one of the
best players in the nhl.
|
| 00:17:19 | His fifth season with the new
jersey devils, a very
defensive-minded organization.
|
| 00:17:23 | He has scored 136 goals over
the last four seasons.
|
| 00:17:27 | That's tied for sixth most in
the nhl, two goals shy this
year.
|
| 00:17:32 | His forty straight 30-goal
campaign.
|
| 00:17:34 | Finished last year fifth in the
nhl in points, two goals and
three helpers in this vancouver
olympics.
|
| 00:17:39 | He's incredible.
|
| 00:17:40 | >> Is really is.
|
| 00:17:41 | He's small, but dynamic.
|
| 00:17:43 | In the new nhl and the
olympics, it really plays into
his style of play.
|
| 00:17:47 | He is so die natural and I can
so quick.
|
| 00:17:49 | He's played for the new jersey
devils, putting up those kind
of numbers, so he is definitely
one of the big powerhouses for
team u.s.a.
|
| 00:17:56 | his dad played in the
nhl, and this is a guy to check
out.
|
| 00:17:59 | All right, canada off their
, depression
was setting in in in the great
white north, so they pound
germany.
|
| 00:18:06 | Last night, the game everyone
wanted to see, and from the
get-go, some of the san jose
sharks fans should feel good.
|
| 00:18:12 | All the sharks were showing up.
|
| 00:18:13 | >> They were phenomenal.
|
| 00:18:14 | They dropped the puck
yesterday, and this was men
playing with boys.
|
| 00:18:17 | They came out on a mission.
|
| 00:18:20 | So dynamic.
|
| 00:18:21 | here they go again,
marleau, heatley in goal.
|
| 00:18:25 | >> And knack cove in net
letting it in so that's
everyone jumping into the mix.
|
| 00:18:31 | russia got to get the
next one, and malkin turns it
over.
|
| 00:18:35 | And lock at rick nash skate.
|
| 00:18:36 | >> That is called desperation,
playing for your country.
|
| 00:18:40 | Evgeni malkin should feel shame
here.
|
| 00:18:42 | Oh, yeah, he does.
|
| 00:18:43 | You cannot turn over the puck.
|
| 00:18:44 | And here you have brendan
morrow.
|
| 00:18:46 | He was my captain when I played
in darblings absolute warrior
and epitomizes what team canada
brings, hard work ethic,
domination around the net, and
he's rewarded.
|
| 00:18:55 | lots of team captains on
team canada.
|
| 00:18:57 | He is, as matthew mentioned,
the captain for the dallas
stars.
|
| 00:19:01 | 5-1 Game.
|
| 00:19:02 | And it just went on and on and
on.
|
| 00:19:05 | It looked like an all-star
game, like a real all-star
game.
|
| 00:19:08 | >> This guy can shoot the puck.
|
| 00:19:10 | Shane webber from nashville,
and who would get pulled?
|
| 00:19:14 | Nabokov.
|
| 00:19:15 | Should have been a couple of
goals earlier, but I think bad
coaching mistakes from the
russians.
|
| 00:19:19 | they seemed disorganized,
didn't know what to do.
|
| 00:19:21 | Malkin comes in, luongo, that's
a big save.
|
| 00:19:24 | Luongo didn't look outstanding,
but that's a save they like so
to have seat.
|
| 00:19:28 | >> You see malkin, how
frustrated.
|
| 00:19:31 | A little elbow, I don't think
he wants to fight ryan.
|
| 00:19:36 | Join I thought that was a clean
hit, no?
|
| 00:19:38 | >> Too bad they didn't show
that passion, but it was a
clean check.
|
| 00:19:41 | It's just the passion tend of
the game, the frustration that
sets in.
|
| 00:19:44 | I love boyle for going back at
him, but they should to v
played with that same whoshe
when they dropped the puck
instead of when it's over.
|
| 00:19:52 | crosby had no points and
they win.
|
| 00:19:55 | So the u.s. plays finland.
|
| 00:19:57 | Both those teams win 2-0.
|
| 00:20:00 | Kiprusoff, goalie for the
calgary flames, that makes a
, and
they win that game.
|
| 00:20:06 | They go to the gold medal game.
|
| 00:20:09 | Slovakia upsets defending gold
medal winner sweden 4-3.
|
| 00:20:12 | They'll play canada next.
|
| 00:20:14 | You see the action.
|
| 00:20:15 | Day off today.
|
| 00:20:16 | Resumes tomorrow so.
|
| 00:20:17 | Matthew, looking at the final
four of the men's side -- by
the way, the women play
against canada
gfment you saw the
final four.
|
| 00:20:24 | Who plays for the gold medal?
|
| 00:20:25 | >> I think it's going to be
against canada, and i
think it's going to be great
tv.
|
| 00:20:29 | Obviously canada losing the
first game really puts an onus
on this whole thing.
|
| 00:20:32 | But you look at the u.s. team.
|
| 00:20:34 | I think they really believe in
themselves now.
|
| 00:20:36 | They're a young team that have
everyone on their side.
|
| 00:20:39 | Maybe the best goaltender in
the tournament right now with
ryan miller.
|
| 00:20:42 | He's been fantastic this whole
tournament, especially in the
nhl, so I don't see him
quitting.
|
| 00:20:48 | And also, canada, the way they
played against russia, I don't
think there's a better team.
|
| 00:20:53 | And if they play that way for
the rest of the tournament, no
one is going touch them.
|
| 00:20:58 | it seems hard to believe
they would lose a home game,
but you mention their two next
games, if they were to win,
they have to beat himmer and
halak, so they will have to
earn it.
|
| 00:21:09 | >> You look at halak, who plays
for the canadiens, has had a
terrific year.
|
| 00:21:13 | He's been terrific this whole
tournament.
|
| 00:21:15 | But canada, the way they played
against russia, they are so
dominant.
|
| 00:21:18 | I think they development the
team early
in the tournament.
|
| 00:21:21 | I don't think we're going to
see that anymore.
|
| 00:21:23 | They're going to keep rolling.
|
| 00:21:24 | They're just too strong.
|
| 00:21:25 | And they are going to have to
beat good goaltenders.
|
| 00:21:29 | certainly game against
,
because it guarantees them a
medal.
|
| 00:21:33 | It guarantees them a silver
medal, and that should a great
accomplishment for them.
|
| 00:21:38 | Thank you, matthew.
|
| 00:21:40 | All right, what's your vote,
matthew?
|
| 00:21:42 | finish
after reaching the semifinals?
|
| 00:21:44 | I guess you told us you think
they'll win and then lose to
canada in the finals.
|
| 00:21:47 | Almed a I think they're going
to go to the silver.
|
| 00:21:49 | I think canada has the best
team in the tournament.
|
| 00:21:51 | I'm going to give them gold,
u.s.a. silver.
|
| 00:21:54 | log on to
sportscenter.com and vote.
|
| 00:21:57 | Results later in this live
show.
|
| 00:22:00 | coming -- kevin durant's
put up giant numbers this
season.
|
| 00:22:03 | Where does he rank among the
nba's top players?
|
| 00:22:05 | Jalen rose returns with his
answers.
|
| 00:22:08 | And it may surprise you.
|
| 00:22:10 | Plus, bubble teams, clugget
irish, in action last night.
|
| 00:22:13 | Doug gottlieb is back to tell
US WHO'S IN AND WHO'S OUT.all day here.
|
| 00:24:47 | It doesn't come with peppers.
|
| 00:24:48 | Ya' know you told me you wanted mustard...
|
| 00:24:50 | You! Back of the line!
|
| 00:24:51 | Hey, excuse me...
|
| 00:24:53 | What!?
|
| 00:24:54 | Great sandwich... Thanks!
|
| 00:24:56 | ♪ You didn't have to beso nice ♪
|
| 00:25:57 | welcome back to
"sportscenter" live.
|
| 00:25:59 | I'm john buccigross.
|
| 00:26:00 | Chris mckendry, jalen rose in
studio talking about kevin
durant, who's been streaking,
of course, at least 25 points
in 29 straight games.
|
| 00:26:06 | But a tough roadie in san
antonio.
|
| 00:26:09 | We're going to go right to the
fourth quarter.
|
| 00:26:13 | Actually we'll start in the
first quarter, that's a good
idea.
|
| 00:26:16 | Durant off to a good start.
|
| 00:26:18 | And look at this.
|
| 00:26:20 | Hinted line, off balance, and
still makes the three.
|
| 00:26:27 | Again, durant, the floater
goes.
|
| 00:26:29 | So early on, off to a good
start, getting that 25 points.
|
| 00:26:33 | Should not be a problem.
|
| 00:26:35 | He shoots over people.
|
| 00:26:40 | Spurs are up by four.
|
| 00:26:43 | And here comes the thunder.
|
| 00:26:45 | Westbrook to durant.
|
| 00:26:47 | This streak's going to continue
no problem.
|
| 00:26:51 | As you can see, 21 points
through three, only needs four.
|
| 00:26:55 | In the fourth, all right, here
we go.
|
| 00:26:57 | Richard jefferson blocked
inside, back other way.
|
| 00:27:01 | And durant getting closer to
25.
|
| 00:27:03 | What!
|
| 00:27:06 | Whoa!
|
| 00:27:07 | Manu ginobili left-handed, and
durant didn't go up with a lot
of power, and engine owe lee
rejects him.
|
| 00:27:13 | Check this out, scott brooks,
"that's superhero.
|
| 00:27:16 | "
ginobili, he didn't quite
agree.
|
| 00:27:21 | "I was more expecting to be
"
I don't blame him.
|
| 00:27:25 | Later in the fourth, it's a
close game.
|
| 00:27:27 | Spurs up by two.
|
| 00:27:28 | And ginobili right there with
another big play.
|
| 00:27:35 | Duncan gets double-teamed, the
kickout to ginobili, and he
cans the three.
|
| 00:27:40 | Under 45, durant still stuck on
21.
|
| 00:27:43 | He needs four points in 43
seconds.
|
| 00:27:45 | Trying to get three there.
|
| 00:27:46 | That's off to the right.
|
| 00:27:49 | And he goes scoreless in the
fourth quarter, finishing with
21, and that 25-plus-point
streak is over, as the spurs
beat the thunder so.
|
| 00:28:00 | Let's take a look at kevin tour
apt's 25-point streak "by the
"
start with 64, his run lasted
64 calendar days.
|
| 00:28:09 | Last time he scored fewer than
25 points was all the way back
before christmas, december 19.
|
| 00:28:14 | Quite a run.
|
| 00:28:15 | 4 points
per game for oklahoma city
during this streak.
|
| 00:28:21 | They're also playing very well
in the meantime.
|
| 00:28:23 | This isn't a guy on a bad team
putting up big numbers.
|
| 00:28:26 | They're also winning, shooting
over 50% from the floor.
|
| 00:28:29 | The thunder, again, they
benefited.
|
| 00:28:31 | They won 20 games during that
500
record to 33-23, sixth in the
west.
|
| 00:28:39 | He becomes just the fourth
forward in nba history to amass
29 straight games or other.
|
| 00:28:45 | Orks bob mcadoo, spencer
haywood, these are my childhood
basketball heat ropes.
|
| 00:28:51 | All right, so here's the deal.
|
| 00:28:53 | Top 10 players according to
you, jalen rose.
|
| 00:28:55 | The nba makes everyone a free
agent.
|
| 00:28:57 | We're going to have a redraft.
|
| 00:28:59 | You have kobe going first
overall, and kevin durant at
seven.
|
| 00:29:02 | I think at first blush people
say seven, we see him on
"sportscenter" every night!
|
| 00:29:06 | Explain.
|
| 00:29:07 | >> This is what I want people
to understand, because
everybody's going to be hitting
me occupy twitter saying where
is tim duncan, what's going on
with the list?
|
| 00:29:14 | For example, the reason why
they have player of the week
and player of the month is
because that changes, just like
this list changes.
|
| 00:29:22 | So if a player is not getti
it done next week, he won't be
on the list.
|
| 00:29:27 | It's kind of like king of the
court or playing horse.
|
| 00:29:30 | It's about right now.
|
| 00:29:33 | John: but why is durant seven?
|
| 00:29:35 | I agree with you.
|
| 00:29:36 | I like that list, because most
people would say, ok, kobe,
lebron, and then durant.
|
| 00:29:41 | What does he need to do better
to get in the top three?
|
| 00:29:44 | >> My top five, if you notice,
they're not only great scorers,
20-point scorers, but they're
all nba defenders.
|
| 00:29:51 | When you talk kobe bryant, you
talk lebron james, dwyane wade,
it dwight howard, chris paul,
these are all guys that change
games defensively, as well as
offensively.
|
| 00:30:04 | The next tier of players can
get there.
|
| 00:30:06 | Durant, he's 21 years old, ok?
|
| 00:30:08 | He's barely old enough to
drink.
|
| 00:30:10 | He's going to have another time
where he scores 29, 30 points
in a row for 25 straight games,
etc.
|
| 00:30:18 | But he hasn't got to the point
where he's dominating games
defensively yet.
|
| 00:30:22 | Rebounding yet.
|
| 00:30:23 | But he will get there.
|
| 00:30:24 | John: yeah.
|
| 00:30:25 | >> But this is a great list.
|
| 00:30:26 | We have a great league right
now.
|
| 00:30:28 | John: really do.
|
| 00:30:28 | "Espn the magazine" had a great
piece on durant.
|
| 00:30:30 | This guy is committed to his
craft.
|
| 00:30:32 | He's a serious professional.
|
| 00:30:33 | Like you said, he will get
better.
|
| 00:30:34 | >> And he's 6'10".
|
| 00:30:35 | The sky's the limit.
|
| 00:30:36 | John: thank you, jalen.
|
| 00:30:37 | >> Thank you.
|
| 00:30:41 | durant has more than held
his own when you stack up his
numbers against lebron and kobe
this season.
|
| 00:30:47 | He's tied with james for the
nba lead in points.
|
| 00:30:49 | Durant averages more rebounds
than either james or bryant as
well.
|
| 00:30:53 | So he is definitely in the
discussion.
|
| 00:30:59 | time for a "sportscenter
"
steelers nose tackle casey
hampton has agreed to a
three-year, $21 million
contract with the team, $11
million guaranteed.
|
| 00:31:09 | The nine-year veteran, 43
tackles last year.
|
| 00:31:11 | Again, the deadline for teams
to use the franchise tag today
comes at 4:00 eastern time.
|
| 00:31:18 | Prosecutors in south florida
will not file rape charges
against former cowboys star,
hall of famer michael irvifpble
a woman filed a civil lawsuit
earlier this month in broward
county, florida, seeking
damages for a sexual assault
that allegedly occurred fourth
of july weekend, 2007.
|
| 00:31:33 | Now, want state's attorney
office says there's not enough
physical evidence to support
the claims as she waited more
than two weeks to report the
incident.
|
| 00:31:41 | The woman's civil lawsuit and
michael irvin's countersuit are
still pending.
|
| 00:31:48 | Also right now -- the wizards
have bought out the final year
of zydrunas ilgauskas' contract
after he was acquired from the
cavs in the antawn jamison deal
last week.
|
| 00:31:57 | He's free to sign with any team
immediately.
|
| 00:32:01 | Under league rules, he must
wait 30 days to re-sign with
the cavs.
|
| 00:32:04 | John: more olympic coverage.
|
| 00:32:05 | Women's giant slalom.
|
| 00:32:07 | That's lindsey vonn.
|
| 00:32:09 | First run, and you see the
visibility and the track, and
she goes down hard.
|
| 00:32:15 | Into the safety netting.
|
| 00:32:17 | You see her first there is
protecting the that arm-hand
area.
|
| 00:32:23 | Meanwhile, julie mancuso of the
started her same run,
yellow flags comes up, and they
have to stop her.
|
| 00:32:29 | Man accusee is not sure why,
but it's because vonn is still
on the course.
|
| 00:32:34 | You see her face, goes down
hard.
|
| 00:32:37 | Mancuso would have to restart
her run, get on the snowmobile
and go back up.
|
| 00:32:41 | Vonn, broken right pinkie.
|
| 00:32:43 | So six events will be handing
out medals today in vancouver
beginning with the final run in
the women's giant slalom.
|
| 00:32:49 | will take on canada in
the gold medal women's hockey
game.
|
| 00:32:54 | 30 eastern time
this evening.
|
| 00:32:57 | Also tonight, conclusion in the
women's figure skating as well.
|
| 00:33:01 | They finisheded their short
program.
|
| 00:33:03 | They got the long program
tonight.
|
| 00:33:05 | So here is your medal count.
|
| 00:33:06 | Of course, with the u.s.
|
| 00:33:07 | Women's hockey team in the gold
medal game, we know for sure
this will go to 29 after the
hockey game tonight, just a
question of whether that gold
will go to eight or the silver
to 10.
|
| 00:33:18 | still dominating
the winter olympics.
|
| 00:33:20 | They lead germany by total
medals by four.
|
| 00:33:22 | And with the hockey teams both
doing well, they can add there
as well in the next coming
days.
|
| 00:33:29 | back to hoops we go for
notre dame and pitt.
|
| 00:33:33 | Luke harangody, out a third
consecutive game, but he's
added to the ring of honor,
number 44 in the rafters.
|
| 00:33:42 | Actual last night notre dame
made 44 shots, made 22 of them.
|
| 00:33:45 | Doug gottlieb, they were
inspired early on.
|
| 00:33:47 | >> I had a bad case of, that
but I put some cream on it,
went right away.
|
| 00:33:51 | second half, the irish
is rolling.
|
| 00:33:54 | 10-18 From three.
|
| 00:33:56 | Laphonso ellis, what else?
|
| 00:33:58 | >> Pittsburgh averages 69
points per game.
|
| 00:34:00 | Notre dame was able to hold
them to 53 points.
|
| 00:34:03 | They did so by limiting their
second-chance opportunities on
the offensive board, by not
turning the basketball over,
and taking away all driving
lanes, making it very difficult
for this pittsburgh team to
score in the half court.
|
| 00:34:15 | the irish snap a
three-game skid at 68-53.
|
| 00:34:19 | Irish at georgetown, noon on
saturday.
|
| 00:34:22 | So they did prove they can win
without their star, harangody.
|
| 00:34:27 | He's not expected to be ready
for the game against the hoyas.
|
| 00:34:29 | But will they need him?
|
| 00:34:31 | We shall see.
|
| 00:34:31 | Doug gottlieb, many teams in,
many teams out.
|
| 00:34:34 | And many more on the bubble,
including the irish.
|
| 00:34:36 | How do you see them today?
|
| 00:34:37 | New a wrbling it's interesting,
chris.
|
| 00:34:40 | In the selection room, they
actually say "under
"
they have a big board of teams
under consideration.
|
| 00:34:45 | That's kind behalf we have
here, our under consideration
board.
|
| 00:34:48 | Notre dame wasn't really on
this board until yesterday.
|
| 00:34:50 | Now all the sudden you get a
win, you got pitt and west
virginia both at home.
|
| 00:34:53 | That's a bad loss there to
loyola marymount.
|
| 00:34:57 | But they took louisville to
overtime without their star,
luke harangody.
|
| 00:35:01 | If they got him back, they
here's what's
killing them, 1-6 in terms of
true road record, plus they
played a soft out of conference
schedule.
|
| 00:35:10 | To me, notre dame right now is
out.
|
| 00:35:12 | They could play their way in.
|
| 00:35:14 | I think they need harangody
back or they definitely need to
beat georgetown at georgetown,
which is winnable.
|
| 00:35:19 | South florida beat them there.
|
| 00:35:20 | We've seen them lose to old
dominican even on exusms but a
team notre dame lost to that
we're not having a discussion
about that has moved into srgs,
they take on marquette coming
up this sunday.
|
| 00:35:31 | Seton hall, no bad losses.
|
| 00:35:34 | They beat louisville and
pittsburgh, and they beat corps
them at cornell, which, hey,
who would have thought that
goes down as an outstanding
win?
|
| 00:35:42 | You know, strength of schedule,
18.
|
| 00:35:44 | Seton hall out, but also has
the opportunity to play their
way in.
|
| 00:35:48 | A team that was in has played
their way out, but last night,
a dominating performance over
joe's had a that has very,
very good wins.
|
| 00:35:56 | They beat louisville at
louisville, richmond at
richmond.
|
| 00:36:00 | Richmond comes back to their
place.
|
| 00:36:01 | And here's a good one.
|
| 00:36:03 | Compare it to notre dame's 7-5
true road games in terms of the
most difficult thing you'll do
in college basketball.
|
| 00:36:10 | That's win on the road.
|
| 00:36:11 | Charlotte I believe has moved
in based on what took place
last night.
|
| 00:36:15 | Speak of last night, virginia
tech was solidly in the field,
but they go on the road and lay
an absolute egg against boston
college.
|
| 00:36:21 | They also lost to north
carolina.
|
| 00:36:23 | That wouldn't look like a bad
loss normally.
|
| 00:36:24 | it does this year am
>> it's an awful loss now.
|
| 00:36:27 | And here's the big thing.
|
| 00:36:29 | top
100.
|
| 00:36:33 | They have total just 21 wins.
|
| 00:36:35 | In other words, they're beating
up on bad teams, or the
computer says they're bad
teesms I think they're in, but
I think virginia tech still has
work to do in order to stay in
the field.
|
| 00:36:43 | And the last team, and this is
the big thing, at florida
state, georgia terks at wake
forest.
|
| 00:36:49 | They are 3-of against the
top 506789 all three of
these are r.p.i. top 50 games.
|
| 00:36:54 | , which
is not a highly rated
conference.
|
| 00:36:58 | Right now I believe clemson in,
but based on that schedule, if
they were to lose two out of
three and lose their first game
tournament, they
would play their way under
consideration or probably out
so.
|
| 00:37:08 | Still a lot of fluidity.
|
| 00:37:10 | Last night clemson and virginia
tech losing kind of opened them
up to speculation of possibly
falling out of the tournament.
|
| 00:37:15 | selection sunday's two
weeks from this coming sunday,
and there is still a ton of
work to be done.

|
| 00:42:36 | Marcellus wylie will keep you
young.
|
| 00:42:38 | He's a former nfl plarkse now
an nfl analyst employed by
espn.
|
| 00:42:42 | Day two of the nfl combine.
|
| 00:42:43 | You did the combine back in the
day, was that 1997?
|
| 00:42:46 | >> Yes, 1997.
|
| 00:42:49 | after finishing up at
columbia.
|
| 00:42:51 | What surprised you most about
the combine?
|
| 00:42:55 | >> First of all, it was a
pressure cooker.
|
| 00:42:57 | It was three days of intensive
drills and just going against
the best individual talents out
there.
|
| 00:43:02 | So you saw all the big names,
marquee names, and now you
couldn't hide behind your
school uniform and your team.
|
| 00:43:09 | You had to go out there and
show your individual talents.
|
| 00:43:11 | So in that competitive
environment, it was really
tough to go out there and win
the psychological battle.
|
| 00:43:18 | Today get under that 225 pounds
and bench press as many times
as you could with all eyes on
you, with your entire future at
stake.
|
| 00:43:26 | So I think it was very tough to
go into those elements and
perform at your best when
everyone, the entire worblingsd
was watching.
|
| 00:43:32 | what was your 225 number,
do you think?
|
| 00:43:34 | >> Did I 28 at the combines,
but I felt a little more
comfortable at columbia's gym,
and I did 35.
|
| 00:43:41 | John: wow.
|
| 00:43:42 | I can do two.
|
| 00:43:43 | >> Any number after that?
|
| 00:43:44 | John: just two.
|
| 00:43:45 | I'm 44.
|
| 00:43:45 | That's not terrible.
|
| 00:43:47 | What's the most "2 minute
drill," marcellus wiley,?
|
| 00:43:52 | Is it speed or what is it?
|
| 00:43:54 | >> I would have to break it up
into two different drills.
|
| 00:43:57 | It would be first the explosive
drills.
|
| 00:43:59 | That's the vertical jump and
the broad jump.
|
| 00:44:01 | When you're just a big guy and
you can show the scouts that
you can get out of your stance,
from zero to 60, and also short
space drills like this.
|
| 00:44:10 | John: what's that called?
|
| 00:44:11 | >> The column drill, in which
you have to move that big body
in short spaces and show
explosion, because that's how
it is in the trenches.
|
| 00:44:18 | I mean, it's entirely warped
there when you're going out
there, 300-pounders are putting
their hands on and you have to
make a lot of movements in the
five-yard radius.
|
| 00:44:26 | So it's important to show that
at the combine when you can in
shorts and t-shirts.
|
| 00:44:31 | marcellus wiley, today
he's on "sportsnation" with
wendy knicks?

say ozzie just being ozzie.

|
| 00:45:19 | What's wrong with be

|
| 00:45:21 | There's one thing about
players.
|
| 00:45:24 | You think [beep] home in 40
game and you say one thing
about it one day all the sudden
you're a bad person.
|
| 00:45:29 | If this was 1980's, none of
those guys be on the beg
leagues.
|
| 00:45:34 | I'm not protecting anybody
anymore.
|
| 00:45:36 | [Beep].
|
| 00:45:37 | That can't get it done, we find
someone to get it done, because
we think we going to win with
the offense we have, we're full

|
| 00:45:44 | I'm just honest.
|
| 00:45:45 | unpredictable and pro
fine, a reality show, the white
sox reality tv show in waiting
will wait no more.
|
| 00:45:53 | Major league baseball will
produce a series called "the
club," starring ozzie guillen,
kenny williams, and jerry
reinsdorf.
|
| 00:46:02 | Guillen likely free to express
his colorful self for that
show, but his one-man show, his
twitter account, is not sitting
well with the other members of
the club.
|
| 00:46:11 | Williams is not pleased and has
expressed as much publicly and
privately to guillen.
|
| 00:46:17 | >> Kenny was upset?
|
| 00:46:19 | I don't blame him, because he
want to know what's going on,
want to know why and want to
know what I talking about.
|
| 00:46:25 | I say, hey, it's just a
personal thing.
|
| 00:46:28 | I want to have fun like anybody
else does.
|
| 00:46:30 | My life.
|
| 00:46:30 | Like today, I go to barbecue
with my kids can.
|
| 00:46:33 | What's wrong with that?
|
| 00:46:35 | You know, yesterday I said how
bad I play golf.
|
| 00:46:38 | That's going to be every day,
because every time I play golf
I'm very bad.
|
| 00:46:41 | I talked to kenny about it.
|
| 00:46:43 | It's not going to be nothing
involved with the ball club.
|
| 00:46:46 | It's something out there, we
talk about the ball club.
|
| 00:46:50 | Takes a lot of people.
|
| 00:46:53 | and for the other
opinion, the yin and yang in
the sides of chicago, lou
piniella had to to say --
that's how he
communicates, with prime rib?
|
| 00:47:21 | Hello!
|
| 00:47:21 | Is this potato on?
|
| 00:47:24 | Lou.
|
| 00:47:26 | Chris: I don't know.
|
| 00:47:28 | magic rockets --
chris: you can tweet and eat.
|
| 00:47:31 | You can do both.
|
| 00:47:33 | Whoo!
|
| 00:47:33 | John: all right, magic-rockets.
|
| 00:47:35 | That sounds dangerous.
|
| 00:47:37 | Watch dwight howard, tries free
up rashard lewis, gets called
for the moving pick.
|
| 00:47:41 | That by itself does not seem
like a big deal, but kevin
martin fakes, howard draws
another foul.
|
| 00:47:46 | Two fouls in the first 22
seconds of the game.
|
| 00:47:50 | Doesn't even have a lather
going on, and he was going to
the bench.
|
| 00:47:54 | Second quarter, jason williams,
nope.
|
| 00:47:58 | Dwight howard, yet.
|
| 00:48:01 | -- Yes.
|
| 00:48:02 | Oh, you heard him scream for
the and-one, begging for the
call.
|
| 00:48:07 | Dwight will whine.
|
| 00:48:08 | He will talk to the open
officials.
|
| 00:48:09 | Nice job there, power move,
drops that shoulder into the
sternum of jared jeffries, gets
the friendly bounce.
|
| 00:48:15 | I mean, there's no one here on
the rockets who can handle
dwight howard underneath.
|
| 00:48:19 | I mean, look at this.
|
| 00:48:20 | He's like one of those
overgrown eighth graders in
eighth grade basketball that's
6'1" and everybody else is 5'2"
and he's dominating.
|
| 00:48:27 | Jameer nelson, perfect pass,
top of the square to dwight
howard.
|
| 00:48:31 | The circle gets the square.
|
| 00:48:33 | And through three quarters,
howard hasn't missed yet.
|
| 00:48:35 | He's 10-10.
|
| 00:48:38 | Again, look at the people
trying to guard him.
|
| 00:48:40 | They're tiny.
|
| 00:48:42 | Tiny!
|
| 00:48:43 | There it is, fourth quarter
now, under 40 seconds to go.
|
| 00:48:46 | The game's been decide, but
howard still in the game.
|
| 00:48:51 | The jump hook, perfect.
|
| 00:48:54 | 30 Points, 16 rebounds, 11-11.
|
| 00:48:59 | And then the let's just
suddenly go out.
|
| 00:49:02 | Let's save on the bill.
|
| 00:49:04 | Dwight howard shooting the
lights out in houston.
|
| 00:49:07 | Chris: oh!
|
| 00:49:09 | howard did something that
had only been done by two other
players in the history of the
nba.
|
| 00:49:15 | He had at least 30 points, 15
rebounds, and was perfect from
the field.
|
| 00:49:20 | Joins walt bellamy and wilt
chamberlain.
|
| 00:49:26 | Chris: who did it five times.
|
| 00:49:27 | yeah, walk in the park

and there was an exchange in

| 00:57:54 | the running bank not is
good.
|
| 00:57:55 | Check it out again.
|
| 00:57:56 | Cal state fullerton beat the
buzzer and they beat cal-polly.
|
| 00:57:57 | John: this is amazing.
|
| 00:57:58 | Jason love -- I mean, he's
getting hawked with his left
arm.
|
| 00:58:00 | S-- I can't believe I did ic1
lanct-at.
|
| 00:58:01 | Sometimes we overdo the
dunks.
|
| 00:58:02 | John: I like powerful dunks.
|
| 00:58:03 | The denial. h, wow.
|
| 00:58:04 | That's just an all-around good
play.
|
| 00:58:06 | Block.
|
| 00:58:07 | Keep it.
|
| 00:58:09 | And then later, those long
arms.
|
| 00:58:16 | Looks like danny manning.
|
| 00:58:17 | kevin durant, and look
at manu ginobili.
|
| 00:58:22 | He just thought he was going to
get dunked on, but instead he
comes up with a great block at
the rim.
|
| 00:58:28 | the motivation for me is
them telling me what I could
not be.
|
| 00:58:32 | Jimmy butler drives, l
|
| 00:00:00 | On on whether to
franchise hampton or not.
|
| 00:00:02 | They won't now.
|
| 00:00:04 | Chris: more news on that front.
|
| 00:00:06 | today,
about an hour from now, the
deadline for teams to franchise
tag their players.
|
| 00:00:12 | Some decisions already done.
|
| 00:00:13 | The panthers did not place the
franchise tag on julius
peppers.
|
| 00:00:17 | He's an unrestricted free
agent.
|
| 00:00:20 | The patriots did put the tag on
vince wilfork.
|
| 00:00:22 | The nose tackle is
nonexclusive, meaning the
patriots can match any other
team's offer for him or get a
couple of picks.
|
| 00:00:28 | The saints will not franchise
darren sharper.
|
| 00:00:31 | He can hit the market.
|
| 00:00:33 | He tied for the league lead
with interceptions last year.
|
| 00:00:35 | He had nine.
|
| 00:00:36 | In a money move, texans not
franchising their cornerback
dunta robinson.
|
| 00:00:41 | Franchised last season at
almost $10 million.
|
| 00:00:43 | Many regard him the best
available cornerback in the
market.
|
| 00:00:47 | And the raiders franchised
defensive end richard seymour,
came at a cost of more than $12
million for the upcoming
season, but they did give up a
first round pick to get him
prior to just last year.
|
| 00:00:58 | Let's get more on the nfl.
|
| 00:01:00 | com senior writer john
clayton joins us.
|
| 00:01:02 | He is live at the nfl combine
in indianapolis.
|
| 00:01:05 | John, the rams, the lions the
top two picks in april's draft.
|
| 00:01:09 | What are the chances either
team will trade down from those
spots?
|
| 00:01:13 | >> I think it's going to be
very difficult.
|
| 00:01:15 | And here's the reason, even
though ndamukong suh, gerald
mccoy and eric berry may be the
best three players in the
draft, they're not at positions
that necessarily garner a lot
of pay.
|
| 00:01:25 | I know I say this when you have
nose tackles getting
franchised, but still defensive
tackles aren't the difference
makers that quarterbacks are.
|
| 00:01:33 | Because of that with them being
at the top of the draft, it's
going to be difficult to garner
any kind of trade unless you're
talking about a move up for a
quarterback.
|
| 00:01:42 | I'd say right now they'll talk
but not be able to accomplish
much.
|
| 00:01:45 | they're putting them out
there but there's no takers as
we talk today.
|
| 00:01:49 | Chad pennington, first round
back back in the 2002 nfl
draft.
|
| 00:01:54 | Three surgeries later on his
throwing shoulder.
|
| 00:01:56 | Last year he was replaced by
chad henne.
|
| 00:01:58 | He's expected to become a free
agent.
|
| 00:02:00 | What's the likelihood he goes
back to the dolphins, john?
|
| 00:02:03 | >> Well, I think there's a
chance now because jeff
ireland, the general manager
said on thursday that he would
love to be able to work out a
deal to get him to say.
|
| 00:02:11 | Certainly pennington is going
to be in demand.
|
| 00:02:15 | He's a valuable guy.
|
| 00:02:16 | The dolphins have a young
quarterback in chad henne.
|
| 00:02:19 | And ireland and tony spagnuolo
would love to be able to have
him come back.
|
| 00:02:24 | They are talking contract but
they've not come to any deal
yet.
|
| 00:02:30 | pennington and julius
peppers in the same draft.
|
| 00:02:32 | Peppers went second in 2002.
|
| 00:02:34 | And as we've been talking all
week, he's expected to get a
huge pay day.
|
| 00:02:38 | What's the latest on his
suitors?
|
| 00:02:40 | >> Well, a lot of people in
chicago are starting to think
because of their needs at
defensive end that they're
going to go for julius peppers,
and I would say no, I think
they're going to be more in the
aaron kampman lower type of
defensive end market.
|
| 00:02:53 | But still peppers is going to
have a solid market.
|
| 00:02:55 | I do think philadelphia is
going to be in there big.
|
| 00:02:58 | I do think the patriots will be
in there big and certainly
chicago is going to be
shopping, by I think the price
tag is going to be too much for
them.
|
| 00:03:04 | There's no doubt that peppers
is going to do well in this
market.
|
| 00:03:07 | He is the top player in free
agency.
|
| 00:03:09 | john clayton with the
latest from the nfl joining us
live from the nfl scouting
combine in indianapolis.
|
| 00:03:17 | boston, orlando,
cleveland, dallas, denver, the
lakers.
|
| 00:03:20 | Those are the six first place
teams in the nba.
|
| 00:03:22 | Jalen rose here to talk about
two teams who played last
night, two first place teams,
dallas and los angeles.
|
| 00:03:27 | Of course, kobe bryant recently
back.
|
| 00:03:29 | It's not that first game back
from injury, is it, it's that
second one, especially
back-to-back.
|
| 00:03:34 | >> Absolutely.
|
| 00:03:35 | Kobe bryant is actually human.
|
| 00:03:37 | He's in his 14th year going
against a dallas maverick team
that was game for the
challenge.
|
| 00:03:42 | And it's always good d when the
offensive player misses.
|
| 00:03:46 | jason terry, I guess
they're changing up on him.
|
| 00:03:49 | >> When you're kobe bryant, he
only attempted two free throws.
|
| 00:03:53 | Normally a great scorer like
kobe bryant gets to the
free-throw line much more.
|
| 00:03:57 | But give the dallas mavericks
credit.
|
| 00:03:59 | They were up for the challenge.
|
| 00:04:00 | John: they were.
|
| 00:04:01 | Rough start, 0-5 in the first
for kobe right there.
|
| 00:04:04 | And dallas winners of four
straight coming in.
|
| 00:04:07 | Something that went right for
kobe, and his first bucket of
the game he passes reggie
miller for 13th on the all-time
nba scoring list.
|
| 00:04:17 | >> People sometimes don't want
to give k.b. his credit.
|
| 00:04:20 | That's one of the greatest
players in nba history.
|
| 00:04:22 | John: no doubt about that.
|
| 00:04:24 | Dirk nowitzki, oh, man, bopped
on the noggin and it goes.
|
| 00:04:27 | >> And dirk nowitzki likes to
drive one way, get on balance,
reload.
|
| 00:04:31 | That's a very high-percentage
shot for dirk.
|
| 00:04:33 | Basket and the foul.
|
| 00:04:34 | under a minute to go and
kobe drives on shawn marion.
|
| 00:04:37 | Lakers within three.
|
| 00:04:38 | They want to stay within three.
|
| 00:04:40 | Here they are inside.
|
| 00:04:42 | And interesting play here.
|
| 00:04:43 | Ball was going to go to kobe,
and here he comes.
|
| 00:04:46 | Down by three.
|
| 00:04:47 | >> At this point, I'm feeling
like kobe is going to pull up
for three, and he does.
|
| 00:04:51 | And he's going to make it.
|
| 00:04:53 | Did you he doesn't.
|
| 00:04:54 | Pau gasol is going to get the
rebound, and he doesn't.
|
| 00:04:57 | Dallas mavericks get a break.
|
| 00:05:00 | they reviewed that gasol
play to make sure he tipped it.
|
| 00:05:03 | He d lakers down by three.
|
| 00:05:04 | Now they want to foul quickly,
right?
|
| 00:05:06 | >> Absolutely.
|
| 00:05:06 | If you're derek fisher, you
can't gamble because time is
your best friend.
|
| 00:05:10 | Now the clock keeps ticking.
|
| 00:05:12 | Dallas mavericks do a good job
of moving the basketball around
the floor.
|
| 00:05:15 | Lakers can't foul, and by the
time you get to dirk nowitzki,
he's only 90%-plus from the
line.
|
| 00:05:23 | John: automatic.
|
| 00:05:23 | The mavs, a nice win at home.
|
| 00:05:25 | They've won five straight
games.
|
| 00:05:27 | They're in first place in the
southwest.
|
| 00:05:29 | 3 1/2-Game lead over san
antonio.
|
| 00:05:31 | Lakers certainly comfortable in
the pacific, 7 1/2-game lead
over phoenix.
|
| 00:05:35 | The lakers have struggled this
season against the nba's best.
|
| 00:05:38 | Against the top eight teams,
the lakers are below .500.
|
| 00:05:43 | And under 100 points per game.
|
| 00:05:45 | That's interesting.
|
| 00:05:46 | They feasted on the rest of the
league going 36-7 while holding
those opponents to 96 points
per game.
|
| 00:05:54 | Back with jalen rose.
|
| 00:05:55 | Let's talk about the mavericks.
|
| 00:05:56 | They're 5-1 since the trade for
caron butler.
|
| 00:05:59 | At the time that looked like a
good trade.
|
| 00:06:01 | They certainly look like they
got best.
|
| 00:06:03 | Dallas, utah, denver separated
by one game in the west.
|
| 00:06:06 | Which team in your mind, that
stat was interesting, I didn't
realize the lakers were
struggling against good teams,
which I think gives the other
teams hope.
|
| 00:06:13 | >> You're the defending world
champions, going to get every
team's best shot.
|
| 00:06:19 | The denver nuggets are best set
up to be the second best team
in the western conference.
|
| 00:06:22 | candidate in
carmelo anthony.
|
| 00:06:25 | But the guard play is key.
|
| 00:06:28 | Chauncey billups, ty lawson,
steady guard play in the
backcourt and toughness up
front with nene and you have
kenyon martin.
|
| 00:06:34 | And next I take the dallas
mavericks.
|
| 00:06:36 | I appreciate the fact they made
that trade for caron butler.
|
| 00:06:41 | Don't underestimate brendan
haywood.
|
| 00:06:43 | They went for it, they're right
up there in the top three.
|
| 00:06:46 | Join bynum got off to a good
start last night, and heywood
shut him down.
|
| 00:06:51 | Jalen's back later.
|
| 00:06:51 | This is interesting.
|
| 00:06:52 | He's going to tell us where
kevin durant ranks among the
best nba players.
|
| 00:06:57 | It may surprise you, so come
back for that.
|
| 00:07:01 | Speaking of caron butler.
|
| 00:07:03 | His habit of chewing straws
mentioned on this show earlier
in the week.
|
| 00:07:07 | There he is coming into a game,
folds a straw up, chews on it.
|
| 00:07:10 | Before that game, the players
were having fun.
|
| 00:07:13 | He's a newly acquired guy so
they find out about it.
|
| 00:07:16 | Nba says no more.
|
| 00:07:17 | No more straw-chewing during
the game for caron butler.
|
| 00:07:21 | Read all about the straw
controversy on espndallas.com.
|
| 00:07:26 | Also josh hamilton, pictured
there, in downtown dallas.
|
| 00:07:30 | Injured himself early in spring
training.
|
| 00:07:32 | Read about that as well.
|
| 00:07:35 | coming up, purdue making
a run at the number one seed,
but why an injury could keep it
from happening.
|
| 00:07:41 | Doug gottlieb on injuries and
seedings come tournament time.
|
| 00:07:46 | >> I'm matthew barnaby.
|
| 00:07:47 | Next on "sportscenter," I'll
explain to you who my favorite
is to win gold in men's hockey.
|
| 00:07:53 | Melrose, I think you're going
to like my answer.
|
| 00:11:39 | well, purdue's win
streak reaching double digits
as doug gottlieb joins us.
|
| 00:11:43 | They have a huge showdown with
michigan state this weekend.
|
| 00:11:47 | However, a number one seed in
the tournament is now in doubt.
|
| 00:11:51 | Let's share the bad news and
tell you why.
|
| 00:11:54 | Robbie hummel, first half, his
team's up 26-14 when he drives.
|
| 00:11:58 | He's called for a travel.
|
| 00:12:01 | But that's all sorts of bad.
|
| 00:12:03 | Right leg awkward.
|
| 00:12:04 | He couldn't even put weight on
his knee.
|
| 00:12:06 | >> Did not look good.
|
| 00:12:07 | I think the good story is they
came from behind, in
transition.
|
| 00:12:13 | I thought grant who was benched
earlier in the year played a
big part in their comeback.
|
| 00:12:17 | Minnesota would not go away.
|
| 00:12:19 | no, minnesota went on an
18-0 run at one point.
|
| 00:12:25 | Here's grant though, under 15
7 to play,
he puts the boilermakers back
up one.
|
| 00:12:32 | Back come the gophers.
|
| 00:12:34 | >> Joseph got a good look here.
|
| 00:12:38 | The follow is not in time.
|
| 00:12:40 | And purdue escapes minnesota.
|
| 00:12:41 | yeah, minnesota's third
one-point loss of the year.
|
| 00:12:45 | Now, we have seen injuries
affect the way the ncaa will
seed a team.
|
| 00:12:49 | Let's go back to 2000, you had
kenyon martin who broke his
leg.
|
| 00:12:52 | Cincinnati dropped from a one
to a two.
|
| 00:12:54 | But last year, in fact, ty
lawson, the toe injury with
carolina.
|
| 00:12:58 | That was a question.
|
| 00:12:59 | And then also patty mills last
mary's missed a
few games with injury.
|
| 00:13:03 | They ended up not making the
tournament at all.
|
| 00:13:06 | What will happen to purdue?
|
| 00:13:07 | >> We have to look at each one
individually, ok?
|
| 00:13:10 | Patty mills came back in time
and did play in the w.c.c.
|
| 00:13:14 | Championship game but they were
comblone out by gonzaga.
|
| 00:13:17 | The committee didn't think they
should be in.
|
| 00:13:19 | This is different than the ty
lawson and more similar to the
kenyon martin because it looks
as if robbie hummel won't play
the rest of this year.
|
| 00:13:27 | Let's hope he's all right.
|
| 00:13:28 | The junior has a great future
ahead of him.
|
| 00:13:30 | But het's say he doesn't play
between now and the end of the
big ten tournament, I think
they're going to drop the seed
line unless they win out.
|
| 00:13:37 | You beat michigan state without
him, fine.
|
| 00:13:40 | They should have been in the
discussion for a one seed with
robbie hummel.
|
| 00:13:44 | But a blind man can see that
without robbie hummel they're
not the same basketball team.
|
| 00:13:48 | They're still very good.
|
| 00:13:49 | Johnson is playing terrific
basketball.
|
| 00:13:52 | E'twaun moore could be the big
ten player of the year if not
for evan turner just taking
ohio state close to a big ten
title.
|
| 00:13:58 | But they're going to move from
a one to a two.
|
| 00:14:00 | If he lose a couple games, it's
plausible that they move from a
one to a three.
|
| 00:14:05 | you also have syracuse
and duke right behind them with
the tournament, they can
certainly bolster their claims
--
>> you have villanova going to
syracuse.
|
| 00:14:14 | Georgetown has good wins.
|
| 00:14:15 | It will be up to purdue to see
what they do.
|
| 00:14:17 | I don't think there's any doubt
they'll drop at least one seed
line.
|
| 00:14:20 | Chris: how about minnesota?
|
| 00:14:22 | Sixth in the big ten.
|
| 00:14:23 | They have at illinois,
michigan, iowa left on the
schedule.
|
| 00:14:27 | They're among the many bubble
teams.
|
| 00:14:29 | Doug's coming back later in the
show to tell us who's in, who's
out as of today.
|
| 00:14:34 | until then, doug will go
back to the yacht club.
|
| 00:14:37 | From the cast of "mad men,"
it's matthew barnaby looking
good.
|
| 00:14:41 | We're down to the final four at
the olympic men's hockey
tournament.
|
| 00:14:44 | Any surprises?
|
| 00:14:46 | would
still be here?
|
| 00:14:48 | >> No, I did not.
|
| 00:14:50 | I thought sweden and russia
would still be there.
|
| 00:14:52 | they're both not there
anymore.
|
| 00:14:54 | Again u.s.a. still in it.
|
| 00:14:55 | There they are playing
switzerland.
|
| 00:14:57 | And there was some concern,
switzerland, a very defensive
team.
|
| 00:15:01 | >> Yeah, and they have a great
goaltend ner jonas hiller who
plays for the ducks in the nhl.
|
| 00:15:06 | And this is as close as it gets
in the first two periods.
|
| 00:15:09 | Just a battler, but that's the
swiss timing, that's why they
have the extra time on the
clock.
|
| 00:15:14 | John: well done.
|
| 00:15:15 | It's the swiss and their
timing.
|
| 00:15:17 | And hiller actually knocked
this in himself, but the entire
puck has to be over the red
line.
|
| 00:15:22 | And clearly not the puck
wasn't.
|
| 00:15:25 | That's an easy no-call.
|
| 00:15:27 | So we enter the final 20
minutes still scoreless.
|
| 00:15:30 | on the power play trying
to get the first goal.
|
| 00:15:33 | And the incredible athleticism
of zach parise, number nine.
|
| 00:15:37 | What lateral movement, matthew.
|
| 00:15:39 | >> Terrific in front.
|
| 00:15:40 | They need him going.
|
| 00:15:42 | Rafalski has been an absolute
beast on the back end.
|
| 00:15:45 | They call parise for the tip
almost and jumping up and over
and knocks in the first of the
game.
|
| 00:15:50 | he's like sidney crosby,
how good he is around the net.
|
| 00:15:54 | 1-0, Game.
|
| 00:15:55 | The next goal is gigantic
either way.
|
| 00:15:57 | And the swiss think they get
it.
|
| 00:15:58 | How in the wide world of sports
doesn't this puck go in?
|
| 00:16:01 | >> And what a terrific play by
ryan miller to cut off the
angle.
|
| 00:16:06 | I don't know how it doesn't go
in.
|
| 00:16:08 | Usually when you come from that
side it hits the post, usually
it's a tap-in.
|
| 00:16:11 | John: more miller time.
|
| 00:16:13 | He looks so big and calm.
|
| 00:16:15 | That's what you want your
goalie to be.
|
| 00:16:17 | >> He takes away the bottom of
the net.
|
| 00:16:18 | He is so good on his angles and
so calm every single second.
|
| 00:16:23 | John: u.s.a. wins.
|
| 00:16:25 | >> People keep talking about us
as underdogs, but we've played
with all the players in this
league and most of the players
that are here, we've played
with them or against them.
|
| 00:16:33 | And I think we're more than
capable to get the job done.
|
| 00:16:36 | >> It's easy to get frustrated,
and we did a good job of
proving that we're able to be
patient and take what's given
to us.
|
| 00:16:44 | matthew, we have to talk
more about zach parise.
|
| 00:16:46 | A lot of people in america
don't know he's one of the best
players in the nhl.
|
| 00:16:50 | His fifth season with the new
jersey devils, a very
defensive-minded organization.
|
| 00:16:54 | He has scored 136 goals over
the last four seasons.
|
| 00:16:58 | That eye tied for sixth most in
the nhl.
|
| 00:17:01 | Two goals shy this year, fourth
straight 30-goal campaign.
|
| 00:17:05 | Finished last year fifth in the
nhl in points.
|
| 00:17:07 | Two goals and three helpers in
this vancouver olympics.
|
| 00:17:10 | He's incredible player.
|
| 00:17:11 | >> He really s he's small but
he's dynamic.
|
| 00:17:14 | I think in the new nhl and the
olympics, it really plays into
his style of play.
|
| 00:17:18 | He is so dynamic and so quick,
and he plays for the new jersey
dels putting up those kind of
numbers.
|
| 00:17:23 | So he is definitely one of the
big powerhouses for team u.s.a.
|
| 00:17:27 | his dad played in the
nhl.
|
| 00:17:29 | All right, canada off their
, depression
was setting in in the great
white north, but they come back
and pound germany and last
night the game everyone wanted
to see.
|
| 00:17:38 | From the get-go, hey, shark
fans should feel good, all the
sharks were showing up.
|
| 00:17:43 | >> They dropped the puck
yesterday, and this was men
playing with boys.
|
| 00:17:47 | They came out on a mission, so
dynamic.
|
| 00:17:50 | John: here they go again.
|
| 00:17:53 | Heatley and boyle in goal.
|
| 00:17:55 | >> And letting it in.
|
| 00:17:58 | Everyone jumping into the mix.
|
| 00:17:59 | John: 2-0, russia.
|
| 00:18:01 | Got to get the next one.
|
| 00:18:03 | Malkin turns et over.
|
| 00:18:05 | Look at him skating.
|
| 00:18:06 | >> That is called desperation,
playing for your country.
|
| 00:18:09 | Malkin should feel a little bit
of shame here.
|
| 00:18:11 | Oh, yeah, he does.
|
| 00:18:12 | You cannot turn over the puck.
|
| 00:18:14 | And here you have brenden
morrow.
|
| 00:18:17 | He was my captain when I played
in dallas, an absolute warrior
and epitomizes what team canada
brings, hard work ethic,
domination around the net.
|
| 00:18:25 | lots of team captains on
team canada.
|
| 00:18:27 | He is, as matthew mentioned,
the captain for the dallas
stars.
|
| 00:18:32 | 5-1 Game.
|
| 00:18:33 | And it just went on and on and
on.
|
| 00:18:36 | It looked like an all-star
game.
|
| 00:18:37 | >> This guy can shoot the puck.
|
| 00:18:39 | Shane weber from nashville.
|
| 00:18:43 | Should have been a couple goals
earlier when it was only 4-1.
|
| 00:18:46 | I think bad coaching mistakes
from the russians.
|
| 00:18:48 | yeah, they seemed
disorganized, didn't know
really what to do.
|
| 00:18:52 | Malkin comes under luongo.
|
| 00:18:54 | Luongo didn't look outstanding
in net, but that's what they
like to see.
|
| 00:18:58 | >> They were chanting his name.
|
| 00:19:00 | How frustrated, little elbow to
getzlaf's face.
|
| 00:19:05 | you know what it's like
to talk trash.
|
| 00:19:07 | >> You know what?
|
| 00:19:09 | This late in the game, it was a
clean check.
|
| 00:19:12 | It's just the passion at the
end of the game, the
frustration that sets in.
|
| 00:19:15 | I love boyle for going back at
him, but they should have
played with that same emotion
when they dropped the puck
instead of when it was over.
|
| 00:19:22 | crosby-ovechkin shake
hands.
|
| 00:19:24 | Crosby had no points and they
win.
|
| 00:19:26 | So the u.s. plays fin lapped.
|
| 00:19:28 | Both those teams win 2-0.
|
| 00:19:33 | Kiprusoff, another goalie, that
makes it dangerous for the u.s.
|
| 00:19:36 | They win that game, they go to
the gold medal game.
|
| 00:19:39 | Slovakia upsets defending gold
medal winner sweden 4-3.
|
| 00:19:43 | They'll play canada next.
|
| 00:19:44 | You see the action.
|
| 00:19:46 | Day off today, resumes
tomorrow.
|
| 00:19:48 | So, matthew, looking at the
final four of the men's side --
the women play today for the
gold medal -- you saw the final
four, who plays for the gold
medal?
|
| 00:19:56 | >> I think it's going to be
u.s. against canada.
|
| 00:19:58 | And I think it's going to be
great tv.
|
| 00:20:00 | Obviously, canada losing the
first game really puts an onus
on this whole thing.
|
| 00:20:04 | team, i
think they really believe in
themselves now.
|
| 00:20:07 | They're a young team that has
everyone on their side.
|
| 00:20:10 | Maybe the best goaltender in
the tournament right now with
ryan miller.
|
| 00:20:13 | He's been fantastic this whole
tournament, and especially in
the nhl.
|
| 00:20:16 | So I don't see him quitting.
|
| 00:20:19 | And also canada, the way they
played against russia, I don't
think there is a better team,
and if they play that way for
the rest of the tournament, no
one is going to touch them.
|
| 00:20:27 | it seems hard to believe
they would lose a home game.
|
| 00:20:31 | But that being said, their two
next games, they have to beat
great goaltenders.
|
| 00:20:37 | So they will have to earn it.
|
| 00:20:39 | >> They certainly will.
|
| 00:20:40 | And you look at the goalies,
they've been terrific this
whole tournament.
|
| 00:20:45 | But canada, the way they played
against russia, they are so
dominant, I think they got the
team early
in the tournament.
|
| 00:20:52 | I don't think we're going to
see that.
|
| 00:20:54 | They're going to keep rolling.
|
| 00:20:55 | They're just too strong and
they are going to have to beat
good goaltenders.
|
| 00:21:00 | certainly the game
against finland is a huge game
because it
guarantees them a silver medal
and that would be a great
accomplishment for them.
|
| 00:21:07 | Thank you, matthew.
|
| 00:21:08 | >> Thank you.
|
| 00:21:10 | cue radioheads
"optimistic" song because
that's what the nation is.
|
| 00:21:16 | Almost 64% of you believe the
will win their next two
games and win the gold medal.
|
| 00:21:22 | And 32% say you'll get to the
gold medal game but then lose,
likely to canada, we assume.
|
| 00:21:28 | But overall, 95% are feeling
's chances
of at least winning one more
game.
|
| 00:21:35 | And like we said, a healthy
majority says they're going to
win it all.
|
| 00:21:38 | That's great to see.
|
| 00:21:39 | Chris: I can't wait.
|
| 00:21:41 | I'm hooked.
|
| 00:21:44 | Kevin durant put some giant
numbers up this season.
|
| 00:21:46 | Where does he rank among the
nba's best?
|
| 00:21:48 | Jalen rose, his answers may
surprise you.
|
| 00:21:52 | Four days left in the winter
games.
|
| 00:21:53 | We're headed to vancouver for a
live report julia mancuso skied
her giant slalom earlier today.
|
| 00:22:02 | Plus, they're still celebrating
team canada's win over the
russians.
|
| 00:22:36 | Forty
see I told you there were forty shots in
there.
|
| 00:22:38 | But you also said there'd be
a reverse ventriloquist act here.
|
| 00:22:41 | Excuse me guys.
|
| 00:22:47 | (announcer)CALLING ALL CAPTAINS.
|
| 00:22:49 | Drink responsibly.
|
| 00:25:40 | hey, welcome back to
"
I'm john buccigross with chris
mckendry.
|
| 00:25:44 | Kevin durant has been streaking
lately, at least 25 points in
29 straight games.
|
| 00:25:50 | Trying to extend that against
the spurs.
|
| 00:25:52 | Tough spot on the road, but he
got off to a great start.
|
| 00:25:57 | This looked like a good sign.
|
| 00:25:58 | Off balance.
|
| 00:25:59 | As he swung the ball across,
george hill grazes the ball and
kind of messes up durant's
timing.
|
| 00:26:06 | And he realized I got to shoot
now.
|
| 00:26:09 | So he shoots, scissors and
makes the three.
|
| 00:26:12 | And he goes to work some more.
|
| 00:26:14 | The floater again off the
opposite foot than normal.
|
| 00:26:20 | Again sliding his way down,
shooting over the defense,
which he does so well with that
huge wing span.
|
| 00:26:27 | And here russell westbrook,
who's having a tremendous
month, the whole team is
playing well.
|
| 00:26:35 | And looks like durant is going
to get his 25 points, at least
25 points for the 30th straight
game.
|
| 00:26:40 | He has 21 through three.
|
| 00:26:41 | Fourth quarter, off the richard
jefferson rejection.
|
| 00:26:47 | Here comes durant for an easy
two.
|
| 00:26:50 | Whoa!
|
| 00:26:50 | What was that?
|
| 00:26:52 | Manu ginobili like a bat!
|
| 00:26:57 | It's a blocked shot.
|
| 00:26:59 | And thunder coach scott brooks,
did you know --, "that's
superhero.
|
| 00:27:05 | "
ginobili not as confident.
|
| 00:27:10 | "I was more expecting to be
dunked on, to tell you the
"
but he flew in and blocked
durant.
|
| 00:27:18 | And from there ginobili just
poured it on offensively.
|
| 00:27:21 | The three!
|
| 00:27:23 | With his team up by two, make
it a five-point game with two
minutes left.
|
| 00:27:26 | Big shot.
|
| 00:27:27 | Meanwhile, durant was
completely shut out in the
fourth quarter.
|
| 00:27:31 | He had 21 points after three
quarters.
|
| 00:27:34 | And he had 21 points when the
final horn sounded.
|
| 00:27:38 | So his streak is over.
|
| 00:27:41 | His team loses by eight.
|
| 00:27:42 | To the spurs.
|
| 00:27:45 | Take a look at kevin durant's
25-point streak by the numbers.
|
| 00:27:50 | 64 Days.
|
| 00:27:51 | That's how long it lasted.
|
| 00:27:52 | The last time he scored fewer
than 25 before last night was
december 19.
|
| 00:28:00 | 32.4.
|
| 00:28:00 | 4 points per
game for oklahoma city during
his streak.
|
| 00:28:06 | Shooting over 50% from the
field.
|
| 00:28:07 | As you can see in some of this
video, he will shoot from far
out as well.
|
| 00:28:12 | Far out!
|
| 00:28:13 | The thunder as a whole has
benefited.
|
| 00:28:16 | This is a really good player on
a bad team who's just
accumulating meaningless
individual statistics.
|
| 00:28:22 | They've won 20 games during
this streak.
|
| 00:28:24 | 500 team to
10 games over.
|
| 00:28:27 | Look at the bob mcadoo buffalo
brave video, tremendous.
|
| 00:28:31 | The fourth forward to amass 29
straight or more.
|
| 00:28:33 | These other guys also did it.
|
| 00:28:36 | Top 10 players according to
you, jalen rose.
|
| 00:28:38 | The nba makes everyone a free
agent.
|
| 00:28:40 | We're going to have a redraft.
|
| 00:28:41 | You have kobe going first
overall and kevin durant at
seven.
|
| 00:28:45 | I think people say seven?
|
| 00:28:46 | We see him on "sportscenter"
every night.
|
| 00:28:49 | Explain.
|
| 00:28:49 | >> This is what I want people
to understand because
everybody's going to be hitting
me up on twitter saying where
is tim duncan?
|
| 00:28:54 | What's going on with the list?
|
| 00:28:57 | For example, the reason why
they have player of the week
and player of the month is
because that changes.
|
| 00:29:03 | Just like this list changes.
|
| 00:29:04 | So if a player is not getting
it done next week, he won't be
on the list.
|
| 00:29:09 | It's kind of like king of the
court or playing horse.
|
| 00:29:12 | It's about right now.
|
| 00:29:16 | so why is durant seven --
and I agree with you, I like
that list, because most people
would say ok, kobe, lebron and
th durant.
|
| 00:29:26 | >> My top five, if you notice,
they're not only great scorers,
20-point scorers, but they're
all nba defenders.
|
| 00:29:34 | When you talk kobe bryant, you
talk lebron james, dwyane wade,
dwight howard, chris paul.
|
| 00:29:40 | These are all guys that change
games defensively as well as
offensively.
|
| 00:29:45 | The next tier of players can
get there.
|
| 00:29:48 | Durant, he's 21 years old.
|
| 00:29:50 | Ok?
|
| 00:29:50 | He's barely old enough to
drink.
|
| 00:29:52 | He's going to have another time
where he scores 29, 30 points
in a row for 25 straight games,
etc.
|
| 00:30:01 | But he hasn't got to the point
where he's dominating games
defensively yet.
|
| 00:30:05 | Rebounding yet.
|
| 00:30:05 | But he will get there.
|
| 00:30:07 | But this is a great list.
|
| 00:30:08 | We have a great league going on
right now.
|
| 00:30:10 | "espn the magazine" had a
great piece on durant.
|
| 00:30:12 | This guy is a committed to his
craft.
|
| 00:30:15 | He's a serious professional.
|
| 00:30:17 | >> And he's 6'10".
|
| 00:30:18 | The sky is the limit.
|
| 00:30:19 | John: thank you, jalen.
|
| 00:30:21 | >> Thank you.
|
| 00:30:22 | time for a "sportscenter
"
here's some of the headlines.
|
| 00:30:27 | Steelers' nose tackle casey
hampton agreed to a three-year,
$21 million with the team.
|
| 00:30:34 | Nine-year veteran had 43
tackles last year.
|
| 00:30:37 | The deadline for teams to use
the franchise tag just about 28
minutes away.
|
| 00:30:44 | An hour and 28.
|
| 00:30:45 | A source tells the "boston
herald", wes welker recovering
well from surgery.
|
| 00:30:51 | He had the procedure three
weeks ago to repair the torn
suffered in the
regular season finale.
|
| 00:30:57 | Status for the start of next
year still uncertain.
|
| 00:31:00 | Prosecutors in south florida
will not file rape charges
against former cowboys star,
hall of famer michael irvin.
|
| 00:31:06 | A woman filed a civil lawsuit
earlier this month in broward
county, florida, seeking
damages for a sexual assault
that allegedly occurred the
fourth of july weekend 2007.
|
| 00:31:16 | The state's attorney's office
says there's not enough
physical evidence to support
the woman's claims, as she
waited more than two weeks to
report the incident.
|
| 00:31:24 | The woman's civil lawsuit and
irvin's countersuit are still
pending.
|
| 00:31:29 | To the nba, the wizards have
bought out the final year of
ilgauskas' contract after he
was picked up from the cavs in
the antawn jamison deal last
week.
|
| 00:31:38 | The buyout cost the player
about $1.5 million.
|
| 00:31:41 | But now he's free to sign with
any team immediately or the
cavs again in 30 days.
|
| 00:31:46 | meanwhile, lindsey vonn
is expected to race in
tomorrow's slalom despite
breaking a finger in a giant
slalom crash yesterday, seen
here.
|
| 00:31:55 | However, a decision on whether
to run will be right up until
she gets in the gate.
|
| 00:32:03 | It's a strong event for her.
|
| 00:32:05 | Just four days remain in the
winter olympics.
|
| 00:32:07 | George smith is in vancouver.
|
| 00:32:09 | He joins us now live on
"sportscenter," as he has all
week long.
|
| 00:32:13 | George, tough day yesterday in
women
at the giant slalom.
|
| 00:32:17 | Vonn crashed during her first
run.
|
| 00:32:20 | Julia mancuso also had to redo
her run.
|
| 00:32:22 | She started today's second
round in 18th.
|
| 00:32:25 | What happened today?
|
| 00:32:27 | >> Well, she completed her
second run, and things went a
little better than yesterday.
|
| 00:32:30 | But the bottom line is she
finished in eighth place so, no
medal and a very disappointing
finish for the defending
olympic champ.
|
| 00:32:38 | And you also mentioned that
news about vonn, that there was
some concern that she would not
be able to compete on friday in
her final event.
|
| 00:32:46 | ski team is quoted
as saying 100% absolutely.
|
| 00:32:52 | So vonn is expected to compete
in the slalom on friday.
|
| 00:32:56 | all right, well,
certainly last night the hockey
game between canada and russia,
a lot of anticipation for this
event.
|
| 00:33:03 | In the end, it was a one-sided
rout by canada.
|
| 00:33:07 | What's the city's mood today
after that big win over russia?
|
| 00:33:11 | >> Well, all night long they
were chanting and cheering
after the victory, quite a
contrast to sunday when canada
lost to the americans.
|
| 00:33:20 | There's no question there's a
feeling that canada is back and
looking good after beating
germany and then russia.
|
| 00:33:27 | The feeling is clear among fans
and players feel the same way.
|
| 00:33:32 | >> We know what we're capable
of in our dressing room.
|
| 00:33:35 | I look around that room and
there's not a guy that i
wouldn't want to be there.
|
| 00:33:39 | So things are the way we want
them to right now, and we're
able to win the last two and
get on to the next one.
|
| 00:33:44 | >> We're getting more
comfortable as the tournament's
going along.
|
| 00:33:49 | Our first period was probably
the best period we played all
tournament.
|
| 00:33:52 | We're getting used to the
crowd, getting used to the
energy.
|
| 00:33:55 | We just had a really good first
period and took care of
business right away.
|
| 00:34:00 | >> So, john, canada is back on
the ice friday afternoon.
|
| 00:34:04 | John: that is right.
|
| 00:34:06 | They'll play slovakia.
|
| 00:34:07 | Meanwhile, the nhl could not be
happier.
|
| 00:34:09 | This is why they let their
players play in these games.
|
| 00:34:12 | They want players an fans to
see these guys and see them get
interviewed by you and
hopefully they'll follow the
nhl once they go back to their
teams.
|
| 00:34:19 | , no one expected them
to be in this position.
|
| 00:34:22 | Two wins away from a gold
medal.
|
| 00:34:24 | They play finland tomorrow at
3:00.
|
| 00:34:26 | What are their thoughts about
the matchup against fin lapped?
|
| 00:34:30 | >> Well, you know, each time we
asked them no matter which team
they're playing, they say the
same thing.
|
| 00:34:36 | They say that they are
confident.
|
| 00:34:38 | Obviously, as you mentioned,
not one of the elite teams, not
one of the favorites coming
into the olympics.
|
| 00:34:43 | But now they're the top ranked
team in the tournament.
|
| 00:34:46 | So you know, they've definitely
performed beyond expectations.
|
| 00:34:50 | Now we had a chance to talk to
bobby ryan, he'll be facing two
of his anaheim teammates in
that game against finland, and
he said the view of team u.s.a.
|
| 00:34:59 | Is changing.
|
| 00:35:01 | >> We can't really play the
underdog role anymore when it
gets to this point.
|
| 00:35:09 | Every team realizes you're here
for a reason.
|
| 00:35:11 | It was nice to fly under the
radar, but there aren't any
secrets anymore.
|
| 00:35:16 | plays at noon
on friday.
|
| 00:35:18 | But the big story here today is
in women's hockey.
|
| 00:35:22 | and canada in the gold
medal game.
|
| 00:35:24 | That's at 3:30 local time.
|
| 00:35:26 | John, back to you.
|
| 00:35:28 | george smith from
vancouver.
|
| 00:35:32 | So here it is, the last time we
checked this medal count it was
germany with seven gold, but as
we mentioned, they won the
giant slalom today.
|
| 00:35:40 | They got the gold medal there.
|
| 00:35:42 | So as you can see, they now
have the most gold medals at
the olympic games and three
total medals behind u.s.a.
|
| 00:35:49 | But with the women's ice hockey
team playing tonight against
canada, we know the u.s.a.
|
| 00:35:54 | Total will about to 29.
|
| 00:35:55 | Now it's just a matter if they
will beat canada and get their
eighth gold medal of the games.
|
| 00:36:02 | well, ozzie guillen
never at a loss for words, but
now he must limit the
characters.
|
| 00:36:08 | Ozzie's on twitter and the sox
aren't happy.
|
| 00:36:11 | That story is next.
|
| 00:36:13 | , and
coming up on "sportscenter,"
I'll tell you about the three
players I'll be watching the
closest during the nfl combine
coming up this weekend and into
early next week.

|
| 00:40:08 | back to the hoops we go
for notre dame and pitt.
|
| 00:40:11 | Luke harangody out a third
consecutive game, but he's
added to the ring of honor.
|
| 00:40:16 | Number 44 in the rafters.
|
| 00:40:17 | Actually notre dame last night
took 44 shots.
|
| 00:40:20 | Made 22 of those.
|
| 00:40:23 | Doug gottlieb, they were
inspired early on from behind
the arc.
|
| 00:40:27 | >> I had a bad case of
abromaitis, but I put some
cream on it, went right away.
|
| 00:40:33 | Chris: 10-18 from three.
|
| 00:40:36 | Ellis, what else?
|
| 00:40:37 | >> Pittsburgh averages 69
points per game.
|
| 00:40:39 | Notre dame was able to hold
them to 53 points.
|
| 00:40:41 | They did so by limiting their
second-chance opportunities on
the offensive board by not
turning the basketball over,
and taking away all driving
lanes making it very difficult
for this pittsburgh team to
score in the half court.
|
| 00:40:54 | well, the irish snapped
a three-game skid.
|
| 00:40:58 | 68-53.
|
| 00:40:59 | Irish at georgetown, noon on
saturday.
|
| 00:41:01 | So they did prove they can win
without their star, harangody.
|
| 00:41:05 | He's not expected to be ready
for that game against the
hoyas.
|
| 00:41:08 | But will they need him?
|
| 00:41:10 | We shall see.
|
| 00:41:11 | Doug gottlieb, many teams in,
many teams out, and many more
on the bubble, including the
irish.
|
| 00:41:15 | How do you see them today?
|
| 00:41:16 | >> Well, it's interesting,
chris.
|
| 00:41:19 | That in the selection room,
they actually say under
consideration.
|
| 00:41:22 | They have a big board of teams
that are under consideration.
|
| 00:41:25 | That's kind of what we have
here.
|
| 00:41:27 | Notre dame wasn't on this board
until yesterday.
|
| 00:41:29 | Now you get a win, you got pitt
and west virginia, both at
home.
|
| 00:41:33 | That's a bad loss to loyola,
but they took louisville to
overtime without their star,
luke harangody f they got him
back and win out, they can get
in.
|
| 00:41:43 | Here's what's killing them, 1-6
in terms of true road record,
plus they played a soft
out-of-conference schedule to.
|
| 00:41:50 | Me notre dame right now is out.
|
| 00:41:51 | They could play their way in.
|
| 00:41:52 | I think they need harangody
back or they need to beat
georgetown, it's a winnable
game.
|
| 00:41:58 | South florida beat them there.
|
| 00:42:00 | They lost to old dominion.
|
| 00:42:02 | Notre dame will be out.
|
| 00:42:04 | A team they lost to that i
think has moved into under
consideration, they take on
marquette coming up this
sunday.
|
| 00:42:10 | Seton hall, no bad losses.
|
| 00:42:12 | They've beaten louisville,
they've beaten pittsburgh.
|
| 00:42:14 | They beat cornell at cornell
which, hey, who would have
thought?
|
| 00:42:19 | This goes down as an
outstanding win.
|
| 00:42:21 | Strength of schedule is 18.
|
| 00:42:23 | Seton hall out but also has the
opportunity to play their way
in.
|
| 00:42:26 | A team that was in has played
their way out, but last night a
dominating performance over st.
|
| 00:42:33 | Joe's that has very, very good
wins.
|
| 00:42:35 | They beat louisville at
louisville, first richmond at
richmond.
|
| 00:42:38 | Richmond comes back to their
place.
|
| 00:42:41 | Here's a good win, compare it
to notre dame.
|
| 00:42:44 | 7-5 True road games in terms of
the most difficult thing you'll
do in college basketball,
that's win on the road.
|
| 00:42:50 | Charlotte, I believe, has moved
in based on what took place
last night.
|
| 00:42:53 | Speaking of last night,
virginia tech was solidly in
the field, but they go on the
road, lay an absolute egg to
boston college.
|
| 00:42:59 | They also lost to north
carolina.
|
| 00:43:01 | That win looked like a bad loss
normally --
chris: it does this year.
|
| 00:43:05 | >> It's an awful lot now.
|
| 00:43:07 | I top
100.
|
| 00:43:11 | Total just 21 wins.
|
| 00:43:13 | In other words, they're beating
up on bad teams or the computer
says they're bad teams.
|
| 00:43:17 | I think they're in, but I think
virginia tech still has work to
do in order to stay in the
field.
|
| 00:43:22 | And the last team, and this is
the big thing, at florida
state.
|
| 00:43:27 | Georgia tech, at wake forest.
|
| 00:43:28 | They are 3-6 against the r.p.i.
|
| 00:43:30 | Top 50.
|
| 00:43:31 | All three of these are r.p.i.
|
| 00:43:33 | Top 50 games.
|
| 00:43:34 | 7-6 In the a.c.c.
|
| 00:43:37 | Clemson is in, but based on
they were to
lose two out of three and lose
their first game in the a.c.c.
|
| 00:43:43 | Tournament, they would play
their way under consideration
or probably out.
|
| 00:43:46 | So still a lot of fluidity and
last night clemson, virginia
tech losing kind of hoped them
up to speculation of possibly
falling out of the tournament.
|
| 00:43:54 | selection sunday is two
weeks from sunday and there is
still a ton of work to be done.
|
| 00:43:59 | Doug gottlieb, thanks.
|
| 00:44:02 | Men's college hoops tonight on
espn2.
|
| 00:44:04 | 00 Eastern, tulsa golden
hurricanes taking on jon
scheyer and duke.
|
| 00:44:09 | 00, it's john wall and the
wildwatts trying to avenge that
early season loss to south
carolina.
|
| 00:44:14 | Thursday night showcase, espn2
and espn3.com.
|
| 00:44:20 | we are 56 days away from
the nfl draft, april 22.
|
| 00:44:24 | First round, prime time live
right here on espn.
|
| 00:44:27 | Mel kiper jr. joins us now.
|
| 00:44:29 | Mel, do you have one of those
countdown calendars we see
around the holiday season where
you open the door up?
|
| 00:44:35 | >> I don't, john.
|
| 00:44:36 | The snow coming in baltimore,
you hope that the snow is
melted by april 22.
|
| 00:44:39 | And I would say it should be,
barring another foot, two feet
of snow.
|
| 00:44:45 | a tough winter in
baltimore.
|
| 00:44:47 | A bit of a tough winter for tim
tebow.
|
| 00:44:49 | Many still question his
nfl-caliber play.
|
| 00:44:52 | We've seen some video of him
lately changing his delivery in
the sleepless and the ski cap
and the shorts.
|
| 00:44:59 | Mel, will these adjustments
he's trying to make now, could
this affect his draft stock?
|
| 00:45:04 | >> I don't think so, john.
|
| 00:45:06 | I say yeah, if it would have
happened in august, it would
have worked through the season
where you could have seen him
going against defenses, not
air, it may have been a bigger
factor.
|
| 00:45:14 | But I think if you like tim
tebow, I think the senior bowl
week hurt him.
|
| 00:45:18 | Maybe he's actually open to
tweaking that injury, he's not
going to fight it.
|
| 00:45:24 | If you didn't like tim tebow as
a quarterback, nothing since
the end of the season is going
to change your opinion.
|
| 00:45:28 | In fact, it may be more etched
in stone now that he's not a
quarterback and he's more of an
h-back, if that's the position
he ends up playing at the pro
level after the initial start
at the quarterback position.
|
| 00:45:39 | let's talk about another
quarterback, colt mccoy.
|
| 00:45:41 | Had's been advised not to throw
at the combine.
|
| 00:45:44 | He will throw at his pro day
march 31.
|
| 00:45:47 | Doctors say he shouldn't throw.
|
| 00:45:49 | Talk about the concern for
mccoy's injury on top of any
concerns they had going into
the draft.
|
| 00:45:55 | >> Injuries, to me, aren't the
big concern, john, it's the
fact he didn't have a chance
against alabama, that defense,
to play that game and sew what
he could do.
|
| 00:46:03 | Remember, he had struggles in
their other games against top
defenses, nebraska being one of
those and oklahoma the other.
|
| 00:46:09 | So I think when you look at
colt mccoy, he doesn't have the
great physical ability.
|
| 00:46:13 | The size or the arm strength to
wow you over during a workout
anyway, even if he was 100%.
|
| 00:46:18 | My attitude with colt mccoy is,
if you think he's jake plummer,
like I do, you think second,
third round.
|
| 00:46:23 | But the days of thinking first
round ended a long time ago.
|
| 00:46:27 | who needs to step up at
the combine, mel, to get the
kind of money they want?
|
| 00:46:30 | >> I think dez bryant will
start out with, wide receiver,
oklahoma state.
|
| 00:46:36 | We know about the suspension.
|
| 00:46:37 | A junior coming out early.
|
| 00:46:38 | I think when you look at this
kid, big, physically talented,
but the speed, that's the
question he's going to have to
show.
|
| 00:46:45 | That 40 time is going to be
very important for dez prinet
to solidify a top 10 grade in
the first round.
|
| 00:46:52 | He will remain as the top wide
receiver no matter what.
|
| 00:46:54 | He needs a good combine.
|
| 00:46:56 | Then another wideout, golden
tate from notre dame.
|
| 00:46:58 | Hey, he didn't get a lot of
separation, but he was great
after the catch.
|
| 00:47:01 | That means he's quick, not
necessarily fast.
|
| 00:47:03 | If he turns out to be fast and
quick and run a very impressive
40 time, he could catapult into
the late first round.
|
| 00:47:11 | Right now I'm thinking second
round for him.
|
| 00:47:13 | Finally, let's go to the
defensive side of the ball and
safety taylor mays.
|
| 00:47:17 | You say may be overhyped during
his career.
|
| 00:47:20 | The kid's got great physical
and athletic ability.
|
| 00:47:22 | This workout should showcase
that.
|
| 00:47:24 | He's also got that great
character, intelligence for the
game of football.
|
| 00:47:28 | When he bir views, that should
help him.
|
| 00:47:31 | Taylor mays needs to nail the
process at the combine to
re-establish himself as a first
round draft choice.
|
| 00:47:36 | nfl draft april 22 live
on espn.
|
| 00:47:38 | Mel kiper, bend your knees when
you shovel.
|
| 00:47:40 | >> I'll try, john.
|
| 00:47:42 | Take care, pal.
|
| 00:47:43 | once again, nfl draft in
prime time on espn.
|
| 00:47:48 | The first round is a thursday
night.
|
| 00:47:50 | First round only night april
22.
|
| 00:47:52 | And then, of course, we'll
finish off the next couple of
days as well.
|
| 00:47:56 | All, as always, on espn in high
definition.
|
| 00:48:00 | The 75th nfl draft, your home,
espn.
|
| 00:48:08 | >> I almost put the machine on
the field between the games.
|
| 00:48:11 | If those guys want me to treat
them like little leaguers, i
will.
|
| 00:48:17 | >> How you doing, ozzie?
|
| 00:48:18 | >> [Beep].
|
| 00:48:22 | I don't know if you love me the
same way.
|
| 00:48:25 | There's no reason [beep].
|
| 00:48:26 | Hey, listen, [beep].
|
| 00:48:28 | Ever
>> hey, ozzie, clean up your
damn mouth when you're talking
on the radio.
|
| 00:48:32 | You talk to me with some
respect.
|
| 00:48:34 | >> I don't like when players or
somebody else says ozzie is
just being ozzie.
|
| 00:48:39 | That's an excuse.
|
| 00:48:40 | Ozzie just being honest.
|
| 00:48:41 | What's wrong to be honest?
|
| 00:48:42 | There's one thing about
players.
|
| 00:48:44 | You protect their [beep] 140
games, and you say one thing
about it one day all of a
sudden you're a bad person.
|
| 00:48:52 | In the 1980's, would any of
those guys be here now?
|
| 00:48:55 | I'm not protecting anybody
anymore.
|
| 00:48:56 | [Beep].
|
| 00:49:01 | We think we're going to win
with the offense we have, we're
full of [beep].
|
| 00:49:06 | That just be honest.
|
| 00:49:08 | unpredictable and
profane, a reality show.
|
| 00:49:12 | The white sox reality tv show
in waiting will wait no more.
|
| 00:49:16 | Major league baseball will
produce a series called "the
club," starring ozzie guillen,
kenny williams and jerry
reinsdorf.
|
| 00:49:24 | Guillen likely free to express
his colorful self for that
show, but his one-man show, his
twitter account, is not sitting
well with the other members of
"
williams is not pleased and has
expressed as much publicly and
privately to guillen.
|
| 00:49:40 | >> Kenny was upset.
|
| 00:49:42 | Yeah, I don't blame him because
he want to know what's going
on, want to know why, want to
know what I talk about.
|
| 00:49:48 | I said hey, it's just a
personal thing.
|
| 00:49:50 | I want to have fun like
everybody else does.
|
| 00:49:53 | My life.
|
| 00:49:53 | Like today I'm going to
barbecue with my kids.
|
| 00:49:56 | What's wrong with that?
|
| 00:49:58 | You know, yesterday I said how
bad I plad golf.
|
| 00:50:01 | That's going to be every day
because every time I play golf
I'm very bad.
|
| 00:50:04 | I talked to kenny bit.
|
| 00:50:06 | It's not going to be nothing
involved with the ball club.
|
| 00:50:09 | It's something out there, we
talk about the ball club, then
it's my responsibility.
|
| 00:50:14 | There's a lot of people in
baseball have twitter.
|
| 00:50:16 | and for the other
opinion, the yin and the yang
the size of chicago, lou
piniella had this to say --
that's how he
communicates, with prime rib?
|
| 00:50:43 | Hello?
|

|
| 00:55:17 | He'll try to do the same
against new orleans.
|
| 00:55:19 | one last time, let's
count them down 10 to one.
|
| 00:55:23 | In dubai, andy murray, his
first tournament since the
australian open final.
|
| 00:55:27 | Thinks he has a winner here.
|
| 00:55:31 | But the blind stab, comes up
with a winner.
|
| 00:55:33 | And murray falls in three sets.
|
| 00:55:40 | the beautiful block on
jordan farmar.
|
| 00:55:44 | The mavericks beat the lakers
101-96.
|
| 00:55:47 | number eight, miami ohio
taking on ohio.
|
| 00:55:50 | Down one.
|
| 00:55:51 | Tommy freeman, the game-winning
6 seconds left on
the clock.
|
| 00:55:58 | Ohio wins by two.
|
| 00:56:00 | site of my last high
school basketball game, that
arena.
|
| 00:56:04 | Number seven.
|
| 00:56:05 | Xavier-st. louis.
|
| 00:56:07 | Atlantic 10 action.
|
| 00:56:08 | Look at holloway.
|
| 00:56:09 | We have a better shot from this
game coming up.
|
| 00:56:14 | cal state-fullerton,
cal-poly.
|
| 00:56:20 | The buzzer-beater.
|
| 00:56:21 | that's a good scrabble
game.
|
| 00:56:25 | louis, a better
shot, john?
|
| 00:56:27 | Yes.
|
| 00:56:27 | Look at jason love.
|
| 00:56:29 | His left arm is held so, he has
to grab the rebound with one
hand and just throw it up as
he's getting fouled.
|
| 00:56:34 | That is one of the best shots
of the year in college
basketball.
|
| 00:56:37 | Chris: it's only number five.
|
| 00:56:39 | Depaul and cincinnati with less
than 10 to play.
|
| 00:56:42 | Lance stephenson --
john: oh!
|
| 00:56:45 | Chris: that's a dunk.
|
| 00:56:46 | That is a dunk.
|
| 00:56:48 | John: he's a man, baby.
|
| 00:56:50 | Number three.
|
| 00:56:53 | Huge block by jarvis bernardo.
|
| 00:56:55 | We'll go the other way and
johnson will finish.
|
| 00:56:57 | And then it's going to be
bernardo.
|
| 00:57:01 | Why are we showed you blocked
shots by jarvis bernardo?
|
| 00:57:06 | Because he's now the blocks
leader as mississippi state
wins 74-66.
|
| 00:57:10 | Got the danny manning wrist
bands close to the hands, the
whole thing.
|

|
| 00:57:16 | at number two, speaking
of blocks.
|
| 00:57:18 | Manu ginobili on kevin durant.
|
| 00:57:23 | Ginobili said he thought he was
about to be dunking on.
|
| 00:57:26 | Got a piece of it.
|
| 00:57:27 | Great play.
|
| 00:57:27 | John: what am I doing?
|
| 00:57:29 | Oh, it worked out.
|
| 00:57:30 | Jimmy butler of marquette to
win the game.
|
| 00:57:34 | Oh!
|
| 00:57:34 | At the buzzer!
|
| 00:57:36 | And marquette, a must victory
over st. john's.
|
| 00:57:39 | And they do it at the buzzer.
|
| 00:57:45 | Again, women's gold medal
hockey game tonight.

both of men's and women's ice
hockey tournament.

players.
|
| 00:57:58 | 00 eastern
time, but "outside the lines"
is up next.
|
| 00:58:01 | I'm chris mckendry.
|
| 00:03:11 | Know you don't typically make
too much out of one game in
february.
|
| 00:03:14 | This is one of the rivals that
figures to stand in the way of
cleveland and a trip to
presumably the finals.
|
| 00:03:19 | How much does a game like this
mean to them to make a
statement like this?
|
| 00:03:23 | >> Even though there's no paul
pierce, you have to be a little
worried.
|
| 00:03:27 | This is why.
|
| 00:03:28 | Kevin garnett, you can see he
has the heart of a lion and
he's out there trying to
compete but his performance is
not there.
|
| 00:03:34 | He's not playing at the level
we're accustomed to on the
offensive end.
|
| 00:03:38 | He can't take advantage of
mismatches on the post, on the
defensive end, his step is
slow, he's not contesting above
the rim and playing defense
like he was a couple seasons
ago and was the defensive
player of the year and is key
for the c's.
|
| 00:03:49 | It looked a little old any time
you have a core group of guys
in their 30's, it seems like
their legs are catching up to
them.
|
| 00:03:57 | >> As for the cavs there's
potential to get better.
|
| 00:03:59 | Lebron came out and he's not
hiding behind it.
|
| 00:04:03 | Full quotes and everything.
|
| 00:04:04 | He wants big z back there.
|
| 00:04:06 | You see that happening like
everybody else?
|
| 00:04:08 | >> Of course I do.
|
| 00:04:09 | It's one of those wing deals in
the nba, z is traded to
washington but never leaves
cleveland because we all know
he's going back to the cavs and
you see shaquille o'neal get
injured tonight.
|
| 00:04:19 | That depth will come in handy
and put big z in the fold and
they'll need all the players.
|
| 00:04:23 | >> The agent who says he's
talking to six or seven teams,
including cleveland.
|
| 00:04:30 | >> Yes.
|
| 00:04:31 | >> Thanks so much.
|
| 00:04:32 | Appreciate it.
|
| 00:04:35 | >>> He found a little crease.
|
| 00:04:38 | There's a little glimpse of
what he can do.
|
| 00:04:40 | >> His ability to cross you
over and scramble you up.
|
| 00:04:43 | >> Downey, left of the lane.
|
| 00:04:44 | It's good!
|
| 00:04:45 | >> And this place is bedlam.
|
| 00:04:47 | Wall drives by his man and
lifts and shoots.
|
| 00:04:50 | >> Pull-up three.
|
| 00:04:52 | >> Oh, he had another one.
|
| 00:04:56 | Let the upset begin!
|
| 00:05:00 | >> The only loss on kentucky's
resume is handed to them by
south carolina, handed to them
basically by devan downey.
|
| 00:05:07 | And downey was showing out in
that last game but has been
struggling ever since.
|
| 00:05:13 | There's magic.
|
| 00:05:14 | Taking a look at this one.
|
| 00:05:15 | Lebron in the house to see john
wall, magic in the house to see
john wall.
|
| 00:05:20 | Here's downey, tries to get it
out of the trap and here we go
the other way.
|
| 00:05:25 | John wall.
|
| 00:05:26 | This guy's going to play in the
league.
|
| 00:05:28 | Jalen is still here.
|
| 00:05:29 | If his mike is on we can get
him to talk about john wall.
|
| 00:05:32 | We don't have to.
|
| 00:05:33 | But he's with he.
|
| 00:05:35 | This guy will be in the league.
|
| 00:05:37 | You see him coast to coast.
|
| 00:05:41 | >> He does it on both sides of
the floor.
|
| 00:05:44 | The shot clock and a right hand
dribble, left hand dribble and
a point guard that gets up
there like that, number one
state.
|
| 00:05:50 | But evan turner is number two.
|
| 00:05:52 | >> He could be the player of
the nation, one or the other.
|
| 00:05:55 | There's downey and what he
brings to the table.
|
| 00:05:57 | He's got tons of heart and is
little with a chip on his
shoulder.
|
| 00:06:01 | A scramble.
|
| 00:06:02 | Cousins saves it and patrick
patterson.
|
| 00:06:04 | Kentucky has so much length up
front s so many big fellas.
|
| 00:06:08 | Here downey splits the double
and that goes begging, eric
bledsoe the other way.
|
| 00:06:13 | They come at you, kentucky
does.
|
| 00:06:16 | >> The key to a young team, you
want them to play hard and when
everybody plays hard, then you
can correct the mistakes, a
freshman, what coach cal is
able to do and the freshmen
getting it done.
|
| 00:06:27 | >> The veteran patterson gets
the offensive rebound and dunk.
|
| 00:06:30 | Downey does what he can but
cannot get his teammates a
sweep of kentucky and would
have been a large ask.
|
| 00:06:35 | One of the main reasons
kentucky lost to south carolina
besides downey is they didn't
get a ton out of patrick
patterson and changed on
thursday and he stuck around
and passed from the nba with a
chance to cut down the nets
scores 23, 18 more than in the
loss to columbia.
|
| 00:06:50 | >> Thanks for hanging around.

their national championship

|
| 00:10:04 | While purdue might not have the
nationwide appeal to those
other two schools they are
ranked third in the country and
have suffered a loss every bit
as significant as robbie hummel
is done for the year.
|

in a win over
minnesota.
|

unfortunately it is.

|
| 00:10:23 | Head coach matt painter said
it's obviously disappointing on
several levels because of all
he's done for the program.
|
| 00:10:31 | Steve lavin on the impact.
|
| 00:10:33 | >> Robbie hummel's season
ending injury is a blow to
produce chances of securing a
number one seed in the ncaa
tournament.
|
| 00:10:40 | Purdue will miss the
versatility of robbie hummel,
the ability to stroke the ball
from long range which stretches
defenses and creates the ideal
spacing for matt painter's
motion offense.
|
| 00:10:50 | They also will miss robbie
hummel's postseason experience
and leadership.
|
| 00:10:54 | For purdue to move forward and
have any chance to secure a
number one seed, they're going
to have to close the season
strong, win the big ten regular
season outright, including a
big win, a matchup this weekend
against michigan state as well
as perform in impressive
fashion in the big ten
conference tournament.
|
| 00:11:11 | Purdue, a tall task ahead of
them.
|
| 00:11:14 | >> Steve makes a good point as
we listen in.
|
| 00:11:16 | If purdue wins out they still
can be a one seed but it's a
bigger ask with him gone.
|
| 00:11:22 | Purdue loses their second
leading scorer and rebounder in
hummel and his stats increased
each of the three seasons and
is one of three players to
5 boards and the
other two are pretty good
players.
|
| 00:11:37 | Dickie v, you liked purdue as a
final four team before, how
about now?
|
| 00:11:40 | >> The other day I gave my
final four, kansas, kentucky,
and I had syracuse who I loved
in the two-three zone and their
physicality.
|
| 00:11:48 | But I also had purdue.
|
| 00:11:51 | The motivation of playing in
indianapolis, their defensive
effort, and their star ability
of hummel would get them over
it.
|
| 00:11:57 | But now I certainly would have
to move them out of my final
four and slide in, I just hit a
button, will it be kansas
state?
|
| 00:12:06 | I like them but you know what,
I'm going with the the dukies,
baby.
|
| 00:12:09 | I like duke.
|
| 00:12:10 | I like the big three and I like
the development of zoubek the
way he's wreak.
|
| 00:12:14 | I would say my final four now,
kentucky, kansas, syracuse, and
the duke blue devils.

|
| 00:12:24 | Duke with a visit from tulsa.
|
| 00:12:26 | Coach krzyzewski wanted to play
an out of conference team with
a feeling of a tournament type
game and tulsa certainly brings
that and won 76 straight

explain the leaps he's made.

much of his career at duke and
the last month and a half, he's
been out of his mind.

team.
|
| 00:27:37 | You already can hear rumblings
the miami dolphins will be

|
| 00:28:03 | >> Everyone is talking about
ndamukong suh or gerald mccoy
but it's always turning back to
the quarterback and wouldn't
surprise anybody if jimmy
clausen and sam bradford got
some consideration for the
number one pick.
|
| 00:28:16 | But when all is said and done
it will not surprise me if
oklahoma quarterback sam
bradford who might have been
the number one pick last year
turns around and becomes the
number one overall pick of the
st. louis rams.
|
| 00:28:28 | This year bradford is the guy
to watch in the number one
slot.

|
| 00:28:33 | Which restricted free agent
wide receiver is most likely to
leave?
|
| 00:28:37 | >> Brandon marshall, as immense
a talent as he is the broncos
will certainly look to deal him
if they can get the right price
back for him.
|
| 00:28:44 | You have to figure any team
that needs a wide receiver in
the free agent market would
have to take a look at somebody
like brandon marshall.
|
| 00:28:51 | He's huge, he's talented, he's

basketball world all abuzz over
that saturday night matchup.
|
| 00:35:51 | The game day guys better leave
now.
|
| 00:35:54 | Heavy snow, rain and wind in
the forecast for central new
york.
|
| 00:35:57 | Syracuse is recognized by even
casual observers for its
weather and its two-three
matchup zone defense, a defense
jim boeheim said he once used
as a changeup to help his kids
through lean years when they
weren't good enough to play
man-to-man and win ballgames.
|
| 00:36:15 | That defense is now their
staple but as reported, this is
not your grandfather's 2-3
zone.
|
| 00:36:22 | >> That 2-3 zone is giving them
a world of trouble.
|
| 00:36:26 | >> Syracuse uses it as a
weapon.
|
| 00:36:29 | >> Syracuse has played their
zones.
|
| 00:36:31 | >> Our zone is much different
than is used to be and is even
different than it used to be
last year.
|
| 00:36:36 | Over the years we've changed it
radically with the three-point
line, we moved out and
extended, we trap more now and
I think you change all the
time.
|
| 00:36:45 | >> Jim boeheim flips the script
on game planning.
|
| 00:36:48 | He forces opponents to prepare
to face the syracuse zone,
instead of reworking his
defense to counter the
opponent's man-to-man offensive
playbook.
|
| 00:36:57 | >> Man-to-man you can face 46
different plays in one night
and the next night have to go
against a guy who has 50 plays.
|
| 00:37:03 | In the zone it's two or three.
|
| 00:37:05 | So preparation is easier, when
you play back-to-back games,
when you're in a tournament, i
think it helps you.
|
| 00:37:12 | There's a lot of advantages to
playing zone and I don't see
any disadvantages.
|
| 00:37:17 | >> The goal of boeheim's zone
is make his opponents take the
shots he wants them to take
rather than the shots they
want.
|
| 00:37:24 | >> Sometimes we actually let
the ball into the high post
because we feel there's a guy
there that can't make plays,
can't hurt us.
|
| 00:37:31 | You know, if we find a team
with a jay bilas, we don't
guard him, we stay back.
|
| 00:37:37 | We say don't go out and guard
him, he's not making that shot.
|
| 00:37:40 | So now we're playing five
against four.
|
| 00:37:43 | In that situation.
|
| 00:37:44 | >> The syracuse zone has to be
active to be successful.
|
| 00:37:49 | Boeheim implores his defenders
to get their hands up for
deflections and steals and to
constantly adjust their
defensive position by moving as
the wall moves.
|
| 00:37:58 | >> Five people have to move
when the ball moves.
|
| 00:38:00 | If four people are moving,
you'll get beat.
|
| 00:38:03 | In man-to-man sometimes the
agos of a two or three man
game, in the zone five guys
have to work together every
play.
|
| 00:38:09 | >>Ou have to keep your head
on a swivel, you're constantly
looking to your right and left
to see who is cutting and going
to the basket and things like
that.
|
| 00:38:17 | You can't get caught just
looking at the ball.
|
| 00:38:19 | >> Syracuse funnels the ball to
well-positioned help and traps
automatically when the ball
goes to the baseline or deep
corner and sometimes calls for
traps along the sideline.
|
| 00:38:29 | >> There's the double-team and
turnover.
|
| 00:38:31 | >> This is the trap where we're
going right at it.
|
| 00:38:33 | This is automatic.
|
| 00:38:35 | West comes in across here and
we cut the guard out here.
|
| 00:38:38 | This is an ideal position right
now.
|
| 00:38:40 | Only way he can get out of
there is dribble out.
|
| 00:38:42 | >> Once you have the trap in
the short corner, you want to
deny the ball?
|
| 00:38:47 | >> We deny that and deny the
cutter from the high post.
|
| 00:38:49 | Those are the two keys.
|
| 00:38:50 | >> Really the only pass he's
got --
>> is this one over here.
|
| 00:38:55 | >> Which is a hard pass to
make.
|
| 00:38:57 | >> You've got to go through two
people, two 6'9" guys.
|
| 00:39:01 | >> Syracuse looking to push.
|
| 00:39:02 | Johnson to the hoop.
|
| 00:39:04 | >> Boeheim believes his team
can run better out of the zone
because his big men and guards
are well positioned to outlet
the ball and run lanes, whether
after a rebound or a steal.
|
| 00:39:13 | >> If you're playing against a
motion man-to-man the point
guard might be under the basket
and your center might be
outside so you're not running
from that situation.
|
| 00:39:21 | But you're in position.
|
| 00:39:22 | So I think that helps you in
your zone, that ability to run
out.
|
| 00:39:27 | >> Why do you think there's so
much mystery in coaching and
out of it about zones?
|
| 00:39:31 | >> Well, first of all, I think
people think if they don't
coach man-to-man they're not
macho, they're not real
coaches.
|
| 00:39:38 | Secondly, I think coaches, they
have no idea what a zone is, no
clue.
|
| 00:39:42 | The main reason you play a zone
and our zone we play is to win
games.
|
| 00:39:46 | We think it's our best defense.
|
| 00:39:50 | >> And syracuse will take a

|
| 00:44:21 | Dirk and joe johnson take on
the hawks.
|
| 00:44:23 | 30, dwight howard lead the
magic in new orleans to take on
the hornets.
|
| 00:44:28 | A little double-header for you
here on espn.
|
| 00:44:31 | Cliff lee, last year, monster
part of a trade deal, goes to
philadelphia.
|
| 00:44:36 | And I think for a lot of
people, even though he won a cy
young in cleveland he ratcheted
his perception of who he was to
another level as he really
carried the water for
philadelphia to make it to the
world series.
|
| 00:44:49 | He was shocked he got dealt.
|
| 00:44:50 | >> And now made it all the way
to the pacific northwest, a
member of the seattle mariners.
|
| 00:44:55 | The mariners manager don
wakamatsu said after his first
pen session, all is well with
cliff lee who weeks ago needed
surgery with bone spurs in his
foot.
|
| 00:45:10 | Our pedro caught up with the
new ace of the m's.
|
| 00:45:12 | >> The last eight for 12 months
describe the world your life
has been.
|
| 00:45:16 | >> It's been a couple of
tangents, that's for sure.
|
| 00:45:19 | Spent quite a bit of time in
cleveland and you know, they
started moving in a different
direction and getting rid of
guys and, you know, got traded
at the deadline to philadelphia
and any time there's change you
really don't know what to
expect.
|
| 00:45:32 | Got to philadelphia, obviously
I knew they were the defending
world champions, we're already
in first place in a good
position to make it back.
|
| 00:45:39 | Got there and pitched well, the
team was doing good, made it
back to the world series,
contributed.
|
| 00:45:44 | I felt like I did my part and
did what it takes to help the
team win and you know, got
traded to seattle this
off-season and change again.
|
| 00:45:54 | >> Over the winter you get a
call, it's december, by the
way, we've traded you to
seattle.
|
| 00:46:00 | What was your reaction?
|
| 00:46:02 | >> Totally caught me offguard.
|
| 00:46:04 | You know, I thought I was in
the process of working out an
extension with the phillies
and, know, they made me a
contract offer, and the day we
come back and make our
counteroffer is the day I got
traded and you know, the day
before that I'd seen the news
roy halladay potentially coming
to philadelphia and you know, i
was excited about it, I was
looking forward to pitching
alongside a guy like that.
|
| 00:46:30 | You've got to be excited and
pumped about it, you know, but
to my surprise I was, you know,
part of him coming to
philadelphia was me going
elsewhere.
|
| 00:46:38 | I know it appeared to be i
didn't want to go to seattle,
that I was mad, I was traded to
seattle.
|
| 00:46:44 | That wasn't the case.
|
| 00:46:45 | I just was caught offguard
because number one I enjoyed it
in philadelphia, loved my
teammates and was looking
forward to another run at the
world series and you know, that
was basically pulled out from
under me.
|
| 00:46:58 | I'm here in seattle now.
|
| 00:47:00 | I'm not bitter, I'm not mad,
I'm not anything.
|
| 00:47:03 | I'm looking forward to the year
here in seattle.
|
| 00:47:06 | >> Whatn you bring to the
seattle pitching staff where
really there have been few guys
in that situation?
|
| 00:47:15 | >> As starting pitcher I want
to put up zeros and give the
team a chance to win, get as
deep into the game as I can,
make every start, stay healthy.
|
| 00:47:24 | That's really it.
|
| 00:47:25 | I feel like if I can stay
healthy and make every start,
give the team a chance and get
deep in the game, then my
stats, numbers, everything else
will take care of itself.
|
| 00:47:34 | I've never been really like a
vocal type leader, I feel like,
you know, if I do my work, do
everything I need to do to
prepare and take care of the
stuff I need to take care of,
then, you foe, that kind of
stuff will rub off on other
people and with the additions
they made in the off-season it
looks like we're in a good spot
to contend for the division and
hopefully get back to the
postseason and try to do some
damage there.
|
| 00:48:04 | >>> We take you "next level"
with cliff lee.
|
| 00:48:07 | You take a look at percentage
of outs generated, ground ball,
fly ball, strikeout, it's all
pretty even.
|
| 00:48:14 | Cliff is an equal opportunity
4 the last two
seasons via fly balls, with
speedy outfielders ichiro and
gutierrez, he could be a
perfect fit.
|
| 00:48:27 | Perfect fit for boys on the bus
headed to kissimmee and astros
camp, "baseball tonight" with
their tour on spring training.
|
| 00:48:35 | >>> Back to theles -- to the

games of the united states

injury and reports of a

american woman to medal in
three alpine events in the same

british columbia.
|
| 00:49:04 | >> She already has a gold and

vonn will take one more shot at
winning an olympic medal.
|
| 00:49:13 | Despite breaking her right
pinkie on wednesday, vonn plans
to compete in the women's
slalom.
|
| 00:49:21 | When asked if she'd be able to
ski, coach jim tracy said 100%,
absolutely.
|
| 00:49:26 | He added vonn had skied with
injuries far worse than a
broken pinkie before and he
said, she'll be fine.
|
| 00:49:32 | It's interesting to not vonn
had been to the podium five
times in the sm in the
world cup with two wins.
|
| 00:49:38 | In vancouver, george smith,
espn.
|
| 00:49:41 | >> Maybe she's got one more
trip left in her.
|
| 00:49:45 | Philly damong finished one-two.
|
| 00:49:51 | This is a sport that's been
part of the olympics since 1924
but never had an american
medalist until these games.

| 00:50:00 | Damong's gold was his first and
was part of a second place
finish in the team event

sexual assault that allegedly

but a spokesperson said there
was no physical evidence
because the woman waited more

|
| 00:57:52 | Steve levy, scott van pelt.
|
| 00:57:54 | Light night in the nba.
|
| 00:57:55 | A couple big boys together on
the floor.
|
| 00:57:57 | >> Cavs in boston.
|
| 00:57:58 | Cleveland had lebron but no
paul pierce for the celtics.
|
| 00:58:01 | Let's hit the parque, what do
you say?
|
| 00:58:04 | Lebron and the cavs have lost
their last nine games this
boston, including playoff
games.
|
| 00:58:09 | That's hard to believe.
|
| 00:58:13 | Rajon rondo.
|
| 00:58:14 | The celtics came out fine in
the first quarter.
|
| 00:58:16 | Rondo, driving.
|
| 00:58:18 | He hits it.
|
| 00:58:20 | Then rondo missed the bounce
pass, behind the back bounce
pass to kendrick perkins.
|
| 00:58:25 | Then rondo to ray allen.
|
| 00:58:28 | Three.
|
| 00:58:29 | Rondo scored or assisted on the
first 21 celtics points in the
game.
|
| 00:58:34 | That's great.
|
| 00:58:34 | We're still in the first
quarter.
|
| 00:58:37 | Anderson varejao, alley-oop to
lebron.
|
| 00:58:39 | James scored 10 in the first.
|
| 00:58:41 | The cavs were down by 10 after
one.
|
| 00:58:43 | Second quarter, celtics get a
spark from nate robinson off
the bench.
|
| 00:58:47 | That was the idea when they got
him from the knicks.
|
| 00:58:49 | Two possessions later, now
about the slam-dunk, stop the
three tonight.
|
| 00:58:55 | Celtics open up a lead feeling
good about themselves.
|
| 00:58:59 | Further along in the second
quarter, interesting series of
events involving shaquille
o'neal.
|
| 00:59:03 | Shaq spinning and gets the ball
swatted out of his hands by
glen davis.
|
| 00:59:07 | Watch it again.
|
| 00:59:08 | Davis coming down, a lot of
force on shaq's right thumb.
|
| 00:59:12 | He'd stay in the game.
|
| 00:59:13 | Next cavs possession, see davis
guarding shaq.
|
| 00:59:17 | Certainly looks like he's going
after the thumb as they battle
for position.
|
| 00:59:20 | Although you think if it was
intentional shaq would have
said something or done
something at the time.
|
| 00:59:25 | Shaq would leave the game and
go to the locker room, right
thumb sprain, did not return.
|
| 00:59:29 | No shaq, no problem.
|
| 00:59:31 | Lebron had 21 in the first
half.
|
| 00:59:34 | Rajon rondo coming right back
at you.
|
| 00:59:36 | High arcing off the glass.
|
| 00:59:38 | Celts led by eight at the half.
|
| 00:59:40 | This is a short highlight, by
the way.
|
| 00:59:42 | Third quarter, cavs coming
back.
|
| 00:59:44 | >> 90 Minutes of the program.
|
| 00:59:45 | >> Driving.
|
| 00:59:46 | And the foul.
|
| 00:59:47 | Watch it again.
|
| 00:59:50 | Lebron taking another contact
from kendrick perkins and how
you get to the line.
|
| 00:59:54 | Cavs down six after the
freebie.
|
| 00:59:56 | Still in the third here, antawn
jamison trying to fit in and
doing so nicely.
|
| 01:00:00 | Cavs going down four.
|
| 01:00:02 | Later in the third, lebron,
hickson
shows up on the highlight.
|
| 01:00:07 | Cavs only trailing by one going
to the fourth.
|
| 01:00:10 | Remember, it was boston in the
first, all boston in the first
1/4, even the first half, --
first half.
|
| 01:00:19 | Cavs take a lead, their first
since the first quarter.
|
| 01:00:21 | Then mo williams gets hot.
|
| 01:00:24 | Mo from lebron, then lebron to
mo.
|
| 01:00:28 | Other corner for a three.
|
| 01:00:30 | Then lebron again to williams.
|
| 01:00:33 | How's my pump-fake?
|
| 01:00:35 | Williams had 14 points in the
fourth quarter and finished
with 19 for the game, just
coming back a week ago.
|
| 01:00:40 | Looked like he hadn't missed
any time at all.
|
| 01:00:43 | Williams driving.
|
| 01:00:44 | Nice pass to lebron.
|
| 01:00:45 | James hit 36.
|
| 01:00:47 | Cavs finally win in boston.
|
| 01:00:50 | >>> I think it helped us a lot.
|
| 01:00:52 | We were able to fly around and
help each other.
|
| 01:00:54 | We were able to get up on their
pick-and-rolls where they hurt
us in the first half.
|
| 01:00:59 | We got quicker.
|
| 01:01:01 | hickson did a good job of
staying ready and gave us good
minutes offensively and
defensively.
|
| 01:01:07 | >> Finally got mo williams
going and he's been struggling
after the shoulder injury and
know he's important.
|
| 01:01:13 | How big was if to see him hit
some threes?
|
| 01:01:16 | >> It was huge.
|
| 01:01:17 | We said "welcome back" when he
came off the court.
|
| 01:01:19 | He's a big part of our team and
shoots extremely well and is
our point guard, an all-star
point guard and was happy to
see him come back.
|
| 01:01:26 | >> We don't know how long shaq
will be out.
|
| 01:01:28 | But with all the players you
have, somebody is not going to
get to play.
|
| 01:01:31 | How do you guys keep that
person, whoever it is or
whoever they are a part of
things when you know they may
not get minutes?
|
| 01:01:39 | >> We've got a big picture and
that's to win an nba
championship and you can't do
it by one guy, lebron can't do
it by himself and all the way
down to the fifth team guy.
|
| 01:01:48 | This is a team concept and we
need everybody and everybody
has to stay ready.
|
| 01:01:52 | >> Thanks very much.
|
| 01:01:53 | >> The cavaliers shot 67% from
the floor in the fourth quarter
to take a one-point deficit and
turn it into a 20-point
victory.
|
| 01:02:00 | Again, in boston, the first
time the celtics were outscored
by 21 in the fourth quarter of
a game dating back to april of
2006.
|
| 01:02:07 | What's up with the c's?
|
| 01:02:08 | They're just 5-6 their last 11
games at home.
|
| 01:02:14 | >> A lot more aggressive in the
second half, obviously.
|
| 01:02:19 | The fouls were harder, the way
they went to the basket was
harder.
|
| 01:02:23 | Everything they did was harder.
|
| 01:02:26 | Thought they made some
adjustments in the second
quarter a little bit trying to
stop penetration.
|
| 01:02:33 | I don't think we executed the
best.
|
| 01:02:36 | I just think the second half we
were just off.
|
| 01:02:44 | >> I really thought the
difference in the two halves
was in the first half,
cleveland played like us.
|
| 01:02:49 | The ball didn't move for them
offensively.
|
| 01:02:53 | They're a one-pass shot
offense.
|
| 01:02:57 | We are attacking and we're
multiple pass, multiple pick.
|
| 01:03:01 | In the second half we became
them and they attacked us.
|
| 01:03:06 | >> Bucks, why are we showing
their highlight?
|
| 01:03:09 | 500 since
the all-star break for the
first time in quite a while.
|
| 01:03:13 | It's empromising young team.
|
| 01:03:15 | Andrew bogut punches it out.
|
| 01:03:16 | Royal ivey goes in the stands
and saves it.
|
| 01:03:18 | Take a look, as ivy saves the
ball and goes over little
sparky.
|
| 01:03:24 | Poor guy.
|
| 01:03:24 | After the collision, the little
fellow re-enacts with a friend,
story at school tomorrow.
|
| 01:03:29 | Third quarter, brandon
jennings, no.
|
| 01:03:32 | Bogut with a putback, bogut,
15-10.
|
| 01:03:34 | Less than a minute later, john
salmons with a miss and aussie,
aussie, aussie, there's bogut
again.
|
| 01:03:40 | Brings it every night.
|
| 01:03:41 | Fourth quarter, pacers make a
comeback, 36 seconds to go.
|
| 01:03:45 | Down four.
|
| 01:03:46 | Brandon rush with the miss.
|
| 01:03:48 | Pacers cut the lead at two.
|
| 01:03:50 | Five ticks left.
|
| 01:03:51 | Pacers down four.
|
| 01:03:52 | ford gets the board and
throws up the three and gets
fouled.
|
| 01:03:56 | Don't foul a three-point
shooter at this point.
|
| 01:03:57 | He makes the first two to cut
the lead to two and then the
miss on purpose.
|
| 01:04:02 | Luke ridnour steals the board
and that seals the deal.
|
| 01:04:05 | The bucks are a game over .500.
|
| 01:04:08 | Indiana continues its
struggles.
|
| 01:04:11 | The bucks are just solidly part
of the playoff picture would be
overstating it but nonetheless,
there they are on the inside
with the heat and ahead of the
bobcats who have been better.
|
| 01:04:20 | We're seeing a bit of a sea
change in eastern teams that
have been lousy in the past and
are getting better.
|
| 01:04:26 | >> Good for the bucks.
|
| 01:04:28 | >>> Updating now, the late game
tonight in the nba, chauncey
billups and the nuggets out
west taking on the warriors.
|
| 01:04:35 | Here's billups.
|
| 01:04:37 | Why not?
|
| 01:04:38 | Three-ball.
|
| 01:04:40 | Billups gets somebody else
involved here.
|
| 01:04:42 | He finds carmelo anthony down
low and he'll use the glass to
put the nuggets up six in the
first quarter.
|
| 01:04:48 | On to the second.
|
| 01:04:49 | How about the move by carmelo?
|
| 01:04:51 | A little hesitation there and
take it strong total rack.
|
| 01:04:56 | Then billups to chris andersen.
|
| 01:04:59 | Bird man flying through.
|
| 01:05:02 | Monta ellis took eight shots in
the first half, hit six of them
at halftime.
|
| 01:05:06 | >>> From the bird man to the
bird that beat kentucky, the
gamecocks of south carolina in
rupp, and this guy, if you're
not familiar with downey's
game, well, magic johnson was
there to see it, maybe to see
john wall a little bit, too.
|
| 01:05:22 | Downey had a monster game
against kentucky in rupp but
since then the last five games
anyway he's not shooting very
well.
|
| 01:05:30 | Here's a turnover, john wall in
transition, up, under, kentucky
is out to an 11-2 lead.
|
| 01:05:36 | Then downey takes it in among
the big boys.
|
| 01:05:39 | No good.
|
| 01:05:40 | Wall the other way.
|
| 01:05:41 | Stop ball.
|
| 01:05:42 | Can't do anything with that.
|
| 01:05:44 | South carolina down two.
|
| 01:05:46 | .
|
| 01:05:47 | Devan downey on the drive.
|
| 01:05:49 | Darius miller slaps it away.
|
| 01:05:51 | John wall once more showing
off.
|
| 01:05:53 | Kentucky is up 14.
|
| 01:05:55 | First half winding down.
|
| 01:05:56 | Downey, 4-10 from the first
half.
|
| 01:05:59 | This one from deep.
|
| 01:05:59 | To the second half we go.
|
| 01:06:01 | Kentucky up six.
|
| 01:06:02 | Scramble for the loose ball and
demarcus cousins will save it,
patrick patterson right there,
the veteran with the dunk.
|
| 01:06:10 | Kentucky stretching things out.
|
| 01:06:11 | Carolina down nine.
|
| 01:06:13 | Downey splits the double and
leaves it short.
|
| 01:06:16 | Eric bledsoe, like wall, young
guard with a lot of game.
|
| 01:06:21 | Kentucky up 11.
|
| 01:06:23 | Under three to go.
|
| 01:06:24 | Cousins at the line misses and
patterson gets the offensive
rebound and the dunk.
|
| 01:06:28 | Downey scored a bunch of points
but his team gets outscored by
a bunch of points.
|
| 01:06:32 | He was the game's high scorer
but patterson the big story for
kentucky and had a better game
at this one than columbia.
|
| 01:06:40 | ,
georgia at number 20
less than a minute to go, vandy
down six.
|
| 01:06:45 | This game is far from over.
|
| 01:06:48 | Jermaine beal gets the lay-in.
|
| 01:06:50 | He had a career high 28 in the
game.
|
| 01:06:53 | 30 Seconds left.
|
| 01:06:54 | Vanderbilt down five.
|
| 01:06:55 | John jenkins to andre walker,
hits the three.
|
| 01:06:58 | Vanderbilt down two.
|
| 01:06:59 | 20 Seconds left.
|
| 01:07:00 | Seems like they only get the
ball, too.
|
| 01:07:02 | Beal drives and tries to pull
up and rolls out.
|
| 01:07:06 | ogilvy on the tap-in, just
3-10 shooting but hit that one.
|
| 01:07:11 | Tied.
|
| 01:07:12 | We go to overtime.
|
| 01:07:13 | Georgia with less than 30
seconds left in the overtime.
|
| 01:07:15 | Dustin ware with a quick three.
|
| 01:07:17 | Es the jumper.
|
| 01:07:19 | Chris barnes there for the
board, lay-in and the foul.
|
| 01:07:22 | .9 Left.
|
| 01:07:23 | Here's your intentional miss.
|
| 01:07:26 | Ware gets the rebound and the
shot off, travis leslie trying
to tap in.
|
| 01:07:31 | This guy can jump.
|
| 01:07:32 | It's the perfect miss, right?
|
| 01:07:34 | Just not enough time.
|
| 01:07:37 | Leslie's shot clearly goes
after the light goes on.
|
| 01:07:40 | He led georgia with 22.
|
| 01:07:42 | He needed 24.
|
| 01:07:44 | >>> If number one kansas were
to lose sherron collins or cole
aldrich or number two kentucky
who you saw would lose john
wall or demarcus cousins or
patrick patterson the immediate
reaction among college
basketball fans would go wow,
that's a enormous close to
their championship hopes.
|
| 01:08:04 | And they're ranked third and
suffered a loss as significant
as robbie hummel because he's
done for the season.
|
| 01:08:11 | From valparaiso, indiana he
tore his a.c.l.
|
| 01:08:13 | At first glance it didn't look
good and it's not.
|
| 01:08:16 | Matt painter the head coach
said it's obviously
disappointing on many levels
because of everything he's done
for this program.
|
| 01:08:24 | Andy katz with the impact.
|
| 01:08:27 | >> Ncaa selection committee
chair dan guerrero who is the
ucla athletic director told me
thursday when there's a major
injury the selection committee
likes to see games after the
fact and that's what they'll
get with purdue.
|
| 01:08:39 | They'll get a chance to gauge
where this boilermaker team is
with three regular season games
left without robbie hummel and
then the big ten tournament.
|
| 01:08:46 | That's when they can draw an
assessment of purdue.
|
| 01:08:48 | Are they still worthy of a
number one seed?
|
| 01:08:52 | Because that's what they're
pretty close to at this point.
|
| 01:08:54 | If they are and can win the big
ten regular season and the
conference tournament, then
even without robbie hummel they
could be a number one seed.
|
| 01:09:02 | If they fall, certainly kind of
like in 2000 when kenyon martin
broke his leg for cincinnati
right before they were to be a
number one seed, they could
drop down a line or two.
|
| 01:09:12 | We'll have to wait and see how
purdue plays without hummel.
|
| 01:09:15 | >> They lose their second
leading scorer and rebounder,
the scoring average increased
every year that he has been at
the school entering thursday,
one of three players in the big
ten along with evan turner and
deshawn sims who is averaging
5
boards per.
|
| 01:09:33 | >>> Duke welcoming tulsa and
duke won 76 straight at home
against nonconference opponents
and last time they lost, boozer
and shane battier were part of
the team.
|
| 01:09:45 | 10 Years ago they lost to the
johnny's and they welcomed an
opponent that wasn't from the
a.c.c.
|
| 01:09:53 | Sometimes you get sick of
seeing the same people every
year from your conference so it
helps to play someone
different.
|
| 01:10:00 | St. john's won by one.
|
| 01:10:00 | On thursday tulsa giving duke a
scare.
|
| 01:10:04 | A slice of hope will slice
through and get the runner and
foul.
|
| 01:10:08 | He missed the free-throw.
|
| 01:10:09 | Tied at 28-28.
|
| 01:10:11 | Coach let his team have it,
fired up in a time-out.
|
| 01:10:14 | Duke responds.
|
| 01:10:15 | Brian zoubek who stepped his
game up and in an unbelievable
way, frankly.
|
| 01:10:21 | He knocked down a ton in his
career.
|
| 01:10:23 | The last month he's been
balling, one of four duke blue
devils in double figures.
|
| 01:10:28 | Next possession, here comes
nolan smith.
|
| 01:10:31 | He led all scorers with 18 and
then jon scheyer drains a three
from the wing.
|
| 01:10:38 | Part of an 11-0 run.
|
| 01:10:40 | Duke crewses to their 77th
straight home win against a
nonconference foe and win by
18.
|
| 01:10:46 | >>> Updating here, ninth
straight win over santa clara
would earn gonzaga a share of a
10th straight conference title.
|
| 01:10:55 | Robert sacre will throw it
down.
|
| 01:10:58 | For the bulldogs there.
|
| 01:11:00 | Then steven gray got in the
scoring act.
|
| 01:11:02 | Gray leading the way with 19
points, 7-8 shooting.
|
| 01:11:05 | That's a three there.
|
| 01:11:07 | It was 3-4 from three-point
land.
|
| 01:11:12 | Sacre, they want to guard this
guy.
|
| 01:11:14 | Put a body on the big fella.
|
| 01:11:15 | Gray again.
|
| 01:11:17 | Santa clara shooting just 23%
in field goals.
|
| 01:11:20 | It's 41-15 at halftime.
|
| 01:11:23 | Zags.
|
| 01:11:23 | >> Yikes.
|
| 01:11:24 | >>> Mark mcgwire and his
younger brother jay have not
spoken since 2002.
|
| 01:11:29 | Jay, however, has spoken about
his brother in a book which
will be released monday
entitled "mark and me, mark
mcgwire and the truth behind
"
jay was a body builder who
claims he convinced his brother
to begin taking strouds in --
steroids in 1994 and set him up
with a supplier in 1996 and
today mark responded to his
brother.
|
| 01:11:50 | >> I've come out and said what
I've done and apologized and as
far as I'm concerned, there's
really nothing new as far as --
it's sort of sad.
|
| 01:11:59 | As a brother what he's done.
|
| 01:12:02 | But I've moved on from it.
|
| 01:12:03 | He wrote a book and he's trying
to sell a book for some reason,
I guess, I don't know why.
|
| 01:12:09 | Maybe he needs money.
|
| 01:12:10 | I don't know.
|
| 01:12:11 | I have not been in touch with
him or seen him physically for
eight-plus years.
|
| 01:12:17 | We're a normal family, just
normproblems like anybody
else.
|
| 01:12:23 | You know, I would have to think
what he did, I feel bad for my
parents.
|
| 01:12:29 | I don't know what he's
thinking.
|
| 01:12:32 | It's just a sad day.
|
| 01:12:34 | I guess it's the way society is
today.
|
| 01:12:37 | I mean, you just don't know
what's going to happen, you
know.
|
| 01:12:40 | Try to be a good person, try to
take care of somebody, be a
good brother and I don't know
how a family member could do
something like that but I'll
say a thousand, million more
times if I have to, I've moved
on from this and hope everybody
else can and it's something i
have to live with for the rest
of my life, what I did.

|
| 01:16:57 | Blame is on me.
|
| 01:16:58 | I don't take [beep] anymore.
|
| 01:17:01 | >> The cubs in 120 years have

|
| 01:17:04 | I'm going to make it clear,
he's a bunch of [beep] out
there and that's embarrassing.
|
| 01:17:08 | He don't have pride to play
this game and you don't care
about it, get another job.
|
| 01:17:12 | Good teams win [beep] games and
have meetings.
|
| 01:17:16 | Well, I think we will have a
lot of meetings.
|

|
| 01:17:24 | And we say we're going to play
like this and be cond tenders
in the race, they better look
themselves in the mirror.
|
| 01:17:30 | >> How are you doing, ozzie?
|
| 01:17:32 | >> Oh, [beep].
|
| 01:17:35 | I know you like it.
|
| 01:17:38 | But there's no reason you tell

woke out pretty quick.
|
| 01:17:56 | [Beep] in the town and now
we're a piece of [beep].
|
| 01:17:59 | >> Yeah, so you can see ozzie
guillen was made for social
networking, or it's the other
way around.
|
| 01:18:06 | The white sox manager is a wild
card every time he opens his
mouth.
|
| 01:18:11 | At least one person, me, is
hoping the time it takes for a
thought to travel from his
brain to his fingers and
keyboard the guillen filter
will remain in the off
position.
|
| 01:18:21 | Lou piniella was asked if he
might partake in the fun, the
cubs skipper said, what is
twitter?
|
| 01:18:27 | As pedro gomez reports, guillen
is apparently ahead of his time
when it comes to getting his
message out.
|
| 01:18:33 | >> The lightning rod of
baseball, ozzie guillen, has
discovered another forum to
express his opinions with a
twitter account.
|
| 01:18:40 | But fans of the outspoken white
sox manager might be
disappointed with the tameness
of his posts.
|
| 01:18:46 | Guillen says his topics will
range from barbecues with his
kids to his poor golf game.
|
| 01:18:53 | >> Why?
|
| 01:18:54 | I have a life after that.
|
| 01:18:56 | I think I want to enjoy my life
a little more.
|
| 01:18:58 | I have a few plans out there.
|
| 01:19:00 | They want to know.
|
| 01:19:01 | It's one thing about my
tweeters, a lot of people think
I go to say I can't believe in
the third inning I put him in
the runened this guy misseded
sign.
|
| 01:19:10 | No, it's not about baseball or
the white sox but about myself
and family and kids and what i
do after that.
|
| 01:19:16 | >> I think it's kind of funny.
|
| 01:19:18 | I think it's as big as a deal
as stern.
|
| 01:19:21 | There's a lot of athletes that
have these accounts, facebook
accounts and blogs, I don't see
a big deal in it.
|
| 01:19:29 | >> The only other manager with
a confirmed twitter account is
rays manager joe maddon.
|
| 01:19:34 | Major league baseball's social
media policy prohibits posts
during games.
|
| 01:19:39 | But the league is also looking
into refining that policy.
|
| 01:19:44 | In glendale, arizona, pedro
gomez, espn.
|
| 01:19:48 | >>> Who are you going to follow
on twitter with, maddon or
guillen?
|
| 01:19:56 | >> Either/or.
|
| 01:19:56 | >> I'm going with guillen.
|
| 01:19:58 | A couple hours ago ozzie
tweeted, looking for tickets to
go to wrestle mania, I need
help with that.
|
| 01:20:04 | They're way too expensive.
|
| 01:20:05 | The sox ought to pay him some
more.
|
| 01:20:08 | He sent a message, bed and
bath, I love this places.
|
| 01:20:12 | Bed, bath and beyond it has to
be.
|
| 01:20:14 | >> Sure.
|
| 01:20:15 | Big day.
|
| 01:20:16 | >> Wild.

points and 11 assists for the

|
| 00:00:08 | Later in the first, anderson
varejao, the alley-oop to
lebron james.
|
| 00:00:12 | He had 10 in the first but the
cavaliers were losing by 10
after one.
|
| 00:00:17 | Celtics had 84 a game in the
skid.
|
| 00:00:20 | Shaq spins and the ball swatted
out of his hands by glen davis.
|
| 00:00:23 | Davis comes down with a lot of
force on shaq's right thumb.
|
| 00:00:27 | He would stay in the game.
|
| 00:00:29 | Now, next cavaliers possession,
look at davis guarding shaq,
grabbing shaq'sight thumb
repeatedly as they fight for
position.
|
| 00:00:36 | After that shaq would leave the
game and go to the locker room.
|
| 00:00:39 | Right thumb sprain is what
they're calling it.
|
| 00:00:41 | He didn't return.
|
| 00:00:42 | Zydrunas ilgauskas may be more
valuable than ever.
|
| 00:00:45 | Lebron james, always valuable,
21 points in the first half.
|
| 00:00:51 | He was held to 39% shooting
during that skid.
|
| 00:00:55 | Lebron, you follow him, it
doesn't matter.
|
| 00:00:58 | Antawn jamison was 4-9 and he
had nine points.
|
| 00:01:00 | Then james, the alley-oop for
j.j. hickson.
|
| 00:01:05 | Cavaliers trailed by one
entering the fourth.
|
| 00:01:08 | You can feel the momentum
shift.
|
| 00:01:10 | Fourth quarter, mo williams
makes sure the momentum stayed
with cleveland.
|
| 00:01:14 | Three-ball.
|
| 00:01:15 | Got that one.
|
| 00:01:16 | Then james knows when he's got
a good thing going to williams
again.
|
| 00:01:20 | And then james again to
williams.
|
| 00:01:24 | Pump-fake gets ray allen.
|
| 00:01:25 | 14 Points in the fourth for
williams, 19 for the game.
|
| 00:01:28 | Cavaliers up by 10.
|
| 00:01:29 | Five minutes to play.
|
| 00:01:30 | All cleveland.
|
| 00:01:32 | Williams to lebron.

fourth quarter.

|
| 00:01:40 | James with 36.
|
| 00:01:42 | Cavaliers win by 20.
|
| 00:01:43 | The celtics shoot 3-21 in the
fourth.
|
| 00:01:48 | >> You can't do it by just one
guy.
|
| 00:01:50 | Lebron can't do it by himself.
|
| 00:01:51 | And the guy down to the fifth
team guy can't do it by
himself.
|
| 00:01:55 | We have to understand it's a
team concept and we need
everybody and they have to stay
ready are.
|
| 00:02:00 | >> For them to get what they
want they have to go through us
and then orlando is in there
and everybody else.
|
| 00:02:06 | But that's the facts.
|
| 00:02:07 | And something's going to give

|
| 00:02:13 | >> We just got to play better.

basketball and then come out
and play like that.
|
| 00:02:20 | >> Cavaliers, again, down a
point after three.
|
| 00:02:23 | But then they just demolish
boston in the fourth quarter
and outscore them by 21.
|
| 00:02:27 | Boston missed 18-21 shots
including all four
three-pointers.
|
| 00:02:31 | Mo williams with his 14 points
in the fourth quarter match the
celtics' entire team.
|
| 00:02:36 | Jalen rose with a look now at
the big picture.
|
| 00:02:38 | >> Even though it was a bad
loss by the boston celtics
against the cleveland
cavaliers, yes, they're still a
contender in the eastern
conference.
|
| 00:02:46 | Coming in the season the top
three teams still stand.
|
| 00:02:49 | The orlando magic and cleveland
cavaliers and boston celtics.
|
| 00:02:52 | Add in there nate robinson,
hopefully they'll get paul
pierce back playing healthy but
the key will be kevin garnett,
can he play at a high level on
both ends of the floor and take
advantages of mismatches on the
offensive end and contest and
be a defender on the other end
will be the key for the c's.
|

thursday.
|
| 00:03:12 | Since january 27, rondo and

with it.
|
| 00:05:11 | Patterson the offensive
rebound.
|
| 00:05:13 | Kentucky, 82-61.
|
| 00:05:15 | Avenging its only loss on the
season.
|
| 00:05:18 | And a month ago against south
carolina, kentucky shot just a

| 00:13:07 | >>> Time for the "coors light
cold hard facts", a six-pack of
nfl questions.
|
| 00:13:13 | We welcome in espn nfl insider
adam schefter.
|
| 00:13:16 | Adam, the deadline for nfl
teams to assign players
franchise tags came and went.
|
| 00:13:22 | What's the biggest deadline
headline?
|
| 00:13:23 | >> The headline is that the
pittsburgh steelers were
incredibly active on thursday.
|
| 00:13:28 | Not only did they sign their
defensive tackle casey hampton
to a three-year $21 million
deal that included $11 million
in guaranteed money but put
their franchise tag on their
kicker jeff reed and allowed
running back willie parker to
leave in free agency, to test
the free agent market.
|
| 00:13:47 | So a very busy day in
pittsburgh.
|
| 00:13:49 | >> You're at the nfl combine in
indy.
|
| 00:13:51 | Which player has the most to
gain in these workouts this
weekend?
|
| 00:13:54 | spiller, the clemson
running back is a track star.
|
| 00:13:57 | If he can come out of the
blocks fast he would solidify
his position as the number one
running back in the draft and
even move up in the draft.
|
| 00:14:04 | He's very fast.
|
| 00:14:05 | We've seen what a fast time he
can do.
|
| 00:14:08 | Chris johnson, the former
4
440 and elevated him from the
second round to the first.
|
| 00:14:20 | >> Which player has the most to
lose in indy?
|
| 00:14:24 | >> Alabama nose tackle terrence
cody.
|
| 00:14:28 | Unquestionably.
|
| 00:14:28 | He weighed in at the senior
bowl at 370 pounds.
|
| 00:14:31 | Remember last year alabama
offensive tackle andre smith
hurt his stock some and raised
some questions.
|
| 00:14:37 | Terrence cody is trying to get
his weight down to close to 350
and is supposedly around 355.
|
| 00:14:42 | If he can come in around 350 i
think teams will view him once
again as a first round pick.
|
| 00:14:47 | >> Stick around, adam will be
back to tell us the biggest
free agent available besides
julius peppers.
|
| 00:14:54 | >> We've got free agency and
then we've got the draft.
|
| 00:14:57 | The 2010 nfl draft in
primetime.
|

|
| 00:15:07 | >>> A moment of silence was
held thursday in one siberian
city.
|
| 00:15:12 | It was for the russian olympic
hockey team.
|
| 00:15:14 | The club dead on the ice
against canada the night
before.
|
| 00:15:18 | Eliminated.
|
| 00:15:19 | Killing the winter olympics for
a majority of the nation's
people.
|
| 00:15:23 | Russia and canada with golden
expectations.
|
| 00:15:26 | Now, the united states with no
real expectations for its team
except to compete.
|
| 00:15:31 | is one win away
from skating for gold.
|
| 00:15:34 | Here's bob holtzman.
|
| 00:15:36 | >> Not even two weeks ago the
american hockey team was an
afterthought in this tournament
and they knew it.
|
| 00:15:42 | >> Ask everyone in this room,
y'all cover hockey, ask them to
write down and put in a hat
like "survivor" who will win,
not many put us down.
|
| 00:15:50 | >> Four wins later, including
one over canada and having
outscored their opponents 16-5,
hockey
has changed.
|
| 00:15:58 | >> The cat might be out of the
bag and we can't play the
underdog role anymore when it
gets to this point, I think
every team realizes you're in
the semis for a reason so, you
know, it was nice to play under
the radar for as long as we can
but there aren't any secrets
anymore.
|
| 00:16:13 | >> There's still another level
in the taping which is pretty
scary because of where we are
right now.
|
| 00:16:18 | So to be honest with you, i
don't know if we played our
best game yet.
|
| 00:16:21 | >> Next up is finland, a team
that plays an up and down nhl
style the americans feel they
match up well against.
|
| 00:16:28 | Finland's goalie is miika
kiprusoff who the americans
know well from the calgary
flames.
|
| 00:16:35 | >> I know playing against them
in playoffs last year, he
doesn't like traffic either.
|
| 00:16:40 | What goalie does but you get in
front and get him flustered, it
throws him off his game.
|
| 00:16:45 | >> As great as american goalie
ryan miller has been in the
olympics, kiprusoff has been
better.
|
| 00:16:51 | Kiprusoff has the tournament's
best save percentage.
|
| 00:16:54 | Miller is number two.
|
| 00:16:55 | In vancouver, bob holtzman,
espn.
|
| 00:16:59 | >> United states, 4-0 in
vancouver.
|
| 00:17:02 | The americans have outscored
opponents 16-5.
|
| 00:17:04 | Finland is 3-1 and won 2-3 via
the shutout with kiprusoff.

belarus gets its first gold

count, 32 total medals, eight

|
| 00:17:50 | Germany second with 26 medals
and also have eight goals.
|
| 00:17:53 | Canada moves up to fourth with
17 medals but tied for the most
gold with eight.
|
| 00:18:00 | >>> Who can be the surprise
pick at number one?
|
| 00:18:03 | We reveal the hottest free
agent out there not named
julius peppers.
|
| 00:18:10 | A-rod raised his game in the
postseason making this spring
extra special and frankly a
little bit surreal.

can get the right price back
for him.
|

that needs a wide receiver in

have to take a look at somebody

| 00:00:03 | John clayton on today's key nfl
decisions.
|
| 00:00:05 | We're also talking combine with
marcellus wiley.
|
| 00:00:07 | And also coming up, team
u.s.a., team canada.
|
| 00:00:12 | Will they meet again for the
gold medal?
|
| 00:00:15 | Highlights and projections
next.
|
| 00:00:18 | Captioned by the
national captioning institute
org--
mel kiper also joins us
to talk abouthe combine in
"
we begin with nba news.
|
| 00:00:33 | As expected ilgauskas has been
bout out by the wizards.
|
| 00:00:37 | That means he's free to sign
with any team but the cas.
|
| 00:00:42 | -- The cavs.
|
| 00:00:43 | And we mentioned franchise tag
deadline 4:00.
|
| 00:00:47 | Steelers, as a result, will not
franchise casey hampton, they
come to an agreement.
|
| 00:00:51 | Three years, $21 million.
|
| 00:00:54 | We'll see if this deal helps
the patriots and vince wilfork
come to an agreement, players
at similar positions.
|
| 00:01:00 | today the
deadline for teams to put the
franchise tag on players.
|
| 00:01:05 | The panthers deciding not to
tag julius peppers, a move that
would have put him at $20
million.
|
| 00:01:12 | Patriots have put the
nonexclusive tag on nose tackle
vince wilfork.
|
| 00:01:15 | That means the team has the
right to match any other team's
offer or let him go for two
first rount picks.
|
| 00:01:24 | The saints will allow darren
sharper to hit the market.
|
| 00:01:27 | He tied for the league lead in
picks last year, he had nine.
|
| 00:01:31 | Another money move, the texans
will not franchise dunta
robinson.
|
| 00:01:36 | Franchised last season at
almost $10 million.
|
| 00:01:38 | Many regard him as the best
available cornerback in the
market.
|
| 00:01:42 | And the raiders franchise
defensive end richard seymour.
|
| 00:01:46 | It came at a cost of more than
$12 million, but the raiders
traded a first round pick to
get him before last year.
|
| 00:01:54 | com senior writer john
clayton is joining us live on
"sportscenter" from the nfl
combine in indianapolis.
|
| 00:01:59 | John, again the teams have
eastern today
to franchise tag their players.
|
| 00:02:05 | Free agency begins next friday.
|
| 00:02:06 | That in mind, what's the latest
concern the game's biggest
names out there?
|
| 00:02:11 | >> Well, it looks like there's
only going to be about six
franchise players, but one of
them is jeff reed, the kicker
for the pittsburgh steelers.
|
| 00:02:18 | They were considering
transitioning him.
|
| 00:02:20 | Once they got the hampton deal
3
million, they decided they'll
make sure that reed doesn't go
anywhere.
|
| 00:02:28 | They get him for a one-year
deal, $2.148 million.
|
| 00:02:34 | Reed stays in pittsburgh for
now.
|
| 00:02:36 | In indianapolis, they are not
going to franchise gary
brackett at this stage hoping
that they can get a deal in the
$7 million a year range.
|
| 00:02:44 | They want to make sure brackett
signs on a long-term basis.
|
| 00:02:48 | They may have to risk him going
into free agency to get some
kind of a deal done.
|
| 00:02:53 | Active negotiations continue
for brackett.
|
| 00:02:54 | They hoped to get something
done in indianapolis with
brackett by march 5.
|
| 00:02:58 | as mentioned, john
clayton there at the nfl
combine.
|
| 00:03:01 | John, players arrived
yesterday.
|
| 00:03:03 | The combine runs a week.
|
| 00:03:04 | What's the buzz so far?
|
| 00:03:06 | >> Well, the buzz so far, the
miami dolphins were at the
podium today talking about some
moves that they're considering
making.
|
| 00:03:13 | They have started talks with
chad pennington to try to bring
him back.
|
| 00:03:16 | They would like him to be their
backup quarterback to chad
henne.
|
| 00:03:20 | Tho worked out well.
|
| 00:03:21 | Jeff ireland, the general
manager, also came out and said
that they are interested in
linebackers.
|
| 00:03:26 | Now without naming names, that
puts them in the hunt for
carlos dansby, who's considered
to be the top linebacker in
free agency.
|
| 00:03:33 | Expect something to happen
there after march 5.
|
| 00:03:36 | Of course, joey porter is going
to be released n chicago, you
have julius peppers as a
candidate for a defensive end
job, but still most people in
chicago feel the bears are
going to be looking more at a
lower end guy like aaron
kampman of the green bay
packers.
|
| 00:03:49 | And finally the detroit lions,
they have the second pick in
the draft.
|
| 00:03:52 | They have a chance to get a
defensive tackle, but like most
teams in the top three, they're
willing to shop, maybe trade
down.
|
| 00:03:58 | We'll see if they can get the
right value.
|
| 00:04:02 | They need more than just one
player.
|
| 00:04:04 | lots of names and news,
a dizing time of year.
|
| 00:04:08 | John clayton bringing us the
latest from the nfl.
|
| 00:04:12 | boston, orlando,
cleveland, dallas, denver, the
lakers.
|
| 00:04:15 | Those are the six first place
teams in the nba.
|
| 00:04:18 | Jalen rose here to talk about
two first place teams who
played last night, dallas and
los angeles.
|
| 00:04:23 | Of course, kobe bryant recently
back.
|
| 00:04:25 | It's that second one,
especially back-to-back.
|
| 00:04:28 | >> Absolutely.
|
| 00:04:30 | Kobe bryant is actually human.
|
| 00:04:31 | He's in his 14th year going
against the dallas mavericks
team that was game for the
challenge.
|
| 00:04:37 | It's always good d when the
offensive player misses.
|
| 00:04:40 | John: jason terry.
|
| 00:04:41 | I guess they're changing up on
him.
|
| 00:04:43 | >> Yeah, when you're kobe
bryant, he really didn't
attack.
|
| 00:04:47 | He only attempted two free
throws.
|
| 00:04:48 | Normally a great scorer gets to
the free-throw line much more.
|
| 00:04:52 | But give the dallas mavericks
credit.
|
| 00:04:54 | They were up for the challenge.
|
| 00:04:55 | John: they were.
|
| 00:04:56 | Rough start, 0-5 in the first
for kobe right there.
|
| 00:04:59 | Dallas winners of four straight
coming in.
|
| 00:05:02 | Something that went right for
kobe, and his first bucket of
the game he passes reggie
miller for 13th on the all-time
nba scoring list.
|
| 00:05:11 | >> People sometimes don't want
to give number 24 his credit.
|
| 00:05:14 | That's one of the greatest
players in nba history.
|
| 00:05:17 | John: no doubt about that.
|
| 00:05:19 | Dirk nowitzki, oh, man, bopped
on the noggin and it goes.
|
| 00:05:22 | >> And dirk nowitzki likes to
drive one way, get on balance,
reload.
|
| 00:05:26 | That's a very high-percentage
shot for dirk.
|
| 00:05:28 | Basket and the foul.
|
| 00:05:29 | under a minute to go, and
kobe drives on shawn marion.
|
| 00:05:32 | Lakers within three.
|
| 00:05:33 | They want to stay within three.
|
| 00:05:35 | There they are inside.
|
| 00:05:36 | And interesting play here.
|
| 00:05:37 | Ball was going to go to kobe,
and here he comes.
|
| 00:05:41 | Down by three.
|
| 00:05:43 | >> At this point I'm feeling
like kobe is going to pull up
for three, and he does.
|
| 00:05:46 | And he's going to make it.
|
| 00:05:48 | But he doesn't.
|
| 00:05:50 | Pau gasol is going to get the
rebound.
|
| 00:05:52 | And he doesn't.
|
| 00:05:53 | Dallas mavericks get a break.
|
| 00:05:55 | they reviewed that gasol
play to make sure he tipped it.
|
| 00:05:58 | He did.
|
| 00:05:59 | Now they want to foul quickly.
|
| 00:06:01 | >> Absolutely.
|
| 00:06:02 | If you're derek fisher, you
can't gamble because time is
your best friend.
|
| 00:06:06 | Now the clock keeps ticking.
|
| 00:06:07 | Dallas mavericks do a good job
of moving the ball around the
floor.
|
| 00:06:11 | Lakers can't foul.
|
| 00:06:11 | But the time they get to dirk
nowitzki, he's only 90%-plus
from the line.
|
| 00:06:17 | John: automatic.
|
| 00:06:17 | So the mavs, a nice win at
home.
|
| 00:06:20 | They've won five straight
games.
|
| 00:06:21 | They're in first place in the
southwest.
|
| 00:06:23 | 3 1/2-Game lead over san
antonio.
|
| 00:06:26 | Lakers certainly comfortable in
the pacific, 7 1/2-game lead
over phoenix.
|
| 00:06:31 | Lakers have struggled this
season against the nba's best.
|
| 00:06:34 | Against the top eight teams,
the lakers are below .500.
|
| 00:06:37 | And under 100 points per game.
|
| 00:06:39 | That's interesting.
|
| 00:06:40 | They've feasted on the rest of
the league going 36-7 while
holding those opponents to 96
points per game.
|
| 00:06:49 | Back with jalen rose.
|
| 00:06:50 | Let's talk about the mavericks.
|
| 00:06:51 | They're 5-1 since the trade for
caron butler.
|
| 00:06:54 | That looked like a good trade.
|
| 00:06:57 | Dallas, utah, denver separated
by one game in the west for the
number two seed out west.
|
| 00:07:01 | Which team in your mind, and
that stat was interesting.
|
| 00:07:03 | I didn't realize the lakers
were struggling against good
teams, which I think gives
other teams hope.
|
| 00:07:09 | >> Your defending world
champion is going to get every
team's best shot.
|
| 00:07:12 | I think the denver nuggets are
best set up to be the second
best team in the conference.
|
| 00:07:18 | candidate
in carmelo anthony, but the
guard play is key.
|
| 00:07:21 | Chauncey billups, ty lawson,
steady guard play in the
backcourt and toughness up
front with nene and you have
kenyon martin.
|
| 00:07:29 | And next I'll take the dallas
mavericks.
|
| 00:07:31 | I appreciate the fact they made
that trade for caron butler.
|
| 00:07:35 | Don't underestimate brendan
haywood.
|
| 00:07:38 | They went for it, they're right
up there in the top three.
|
| 00:07:41 | bynum got off to a good
start and heywood shut him
down.
|
| 00:07:45 | Jalen is back later.
|
| 00:07:46 | He's going to tell us where
kevin durant ranks among the
best nba players.
|
| 00:07:51 | It may surprise you.
|
| 00:07:52 | So come back for that.
|
| 00:07:55 | Remember we talked about caron
butler's habit of chewing
straws earlier this week on
"
while he plays.
|
| 00:08:01 | He's been doing this for a
while, kind of under the radar
thing.
|
| 00:08:05 | Nba executive stu jackson
phoned the mavericks to tell
them police, no more straws.
|
| 00:08:09 | Of course, this was during the
pregame, the players having
some fun.
|
| 00:08:12 | So looks like no more straws
for caron butler.
|
| 00:08:16 | we had fun with that,
too.
|
| 00:08:18 | John: probably a smart move.
|
| 00:08:20 | You can read more about butler,
the mavericks, the straws on
espndallas.com.
|
| 00:08:26 | We see josh hamilton there.
|
| 00:08:27 | He had a small injury in the
early stages of spring
training.
|
| 00:08:30 | Also have news on that as well.
|
| 00:08:35 | and you did almost choke
on the straw.
|
| 00:08:37 | I d I'm just doing
highlights.
|
| 00:08:39 | purdue making a run at a
number one seed, but why an
injury may keep it from
happening.
|
| 00:08:44 | Doug gottlieb joins us.

|
| 00:10:14 | I had a chance to sit down
robert titzer, the
creator of your baby can read.
|
| 00:10:19 | He shared how effective it was
with his own daughter, aleka.
|
| 00:10:23 | >> I put 'em in a random order
and she still recognized the
words no matter which order they
were in.
|
| 00:10:28 | She actually started reading
words the she had never seen
before because she'd figured out
the phonetic pattern.
|
| 00:10:33 | That's when I knew that this was
going to potentially change the
way everyone would someday read.
|
| 00:10:38 | >> Aleka:.. no...
|
| 00:10:40 | .. thing...
|
| 00:10:42 | .. nor butterfly...
|
| 00:10:46 | >> We actually saw results.

| 00:10:47 | We saw jacob reading words,
we saw him interacting with the

stopping and being distracted

well, purdue's win
streak reaching double I digits
doug gottlieb joins us.
|
| 00:12:43 | They have a huge show doup with
michigan state this weekend.
|
| 00:12:47 | However, a number one seed in
the tournament is now in doubt.
|
| 00:12:50 | Let's share the bad news and
tell you why.
|
| 00:12:53 | Robbie hummel, first half, his
team's up 26-14 when he drives,
he's called for a travel.
|
| 00:13:01 | But that's all sorts -- right
leg awkward.
|
| 00:13:06 | He couldn't put weight on his
knee.
|
| 00:13:09 | >> The good story is they game
from behind.
|
| 00:13:12 | In transition, I thought grant,
who was benched earlier in the
year, played a big part in
their comeback.
|
| 00:13:18 | minnesota went on an
18-0 run at one point.
|
| 00:13:21 | And that was lawrence westbrook
putting them up one.
|
| 00:13:24 | Here's grant though.
|
| 00:13:25 | Under 15 seconds left.
|
| 00:13:27 | 7 to play, he puts the
boilermakers back up one.
|
| 00:13:32 | Back come the gophers.
|
| 00:13:35 | >> Joseph got a good look here.
|
| 00:13:38 | The follow was not in time.
|
| 00:13:40 | And purdue escapes minnesota.
|
| 00:13:42 | yeah, minnesota's third
one-point loss of the year.
|
| 00:13:46 | Now, we have seen injuries
affect the way the ncaa will
seed a team.
|
| 00:13:49 | Let's go back to 2000, kenyon
martin broke his leg,
cincinnati dropped from a one
to a two.
|
| 00:13:54 | But last year, in fact, ty
lawson, the toe injury with
carolina, that was a question.
|
| 00:13:59 | And then also patty mills last
year missed a few games with
injury.
|
| 00:14:03 | They ended up not making the
tournament at all.
|
| 00:14:05 | What do you think will happen
to purdue?
|
| 00:14:07 | >> Well, we have to look at
each one individually.
|
| 00:14:11 | Patty mills came back in time
and did play in the wcc
championship game but they were
blown out by gonzaga.
|
| 00:14:16 | I thought they should have got
in.
|
| 00:14:18 | The committee didn't think so.
|
| 00:14:19 | This is different than the ty
lawson and more similar to the
kenyon martin because it looks
as if robbie hummel won't play
the rest of this year.
|
| 00:14:26 | Let's hope he's all right.
|
| 00:14:28 | The junior has a great future
ahead of him, but let's say he
doesn't play between now and
the end of the big ten
tournament, I think they're
going to drop them unless they
win out.
|
| 00:14:38 | You meet michigan state without
him, fine.
|
| 00:14:40 | They should have been in the
discussion for a one seed with
robbie hummel.
|
| 00:14:44 | But a blind man can see that
without robbie hummel they're
not the same team.
|
| 00:14:50 | They're still very good.
|
| 00:14:52 | Johnson is playing well.
|
| 00:14:55 | E'twaun moore could be the
player of the year.
|
| 00:14:57 | But I think they're going to
move from a one to a two.
|
| 00:14:59 | And if they lose a couple
games, it's at least plausible
that they move from a one to a
three.
|
| 00:15:04 | because you also have
syracuse and duke right behind
them with the big east
tournament and the a.c.c.
|
| 00:15:09 | Tournament, they can bolster
their claim --
>> villanova going to syracuse.
|
| 00:15:13 | Georgetown has some good wins.
|
| 00:15:14 | It will be up to pur sue to see
what they do.
|
| 00:15:20 | well, minnesota, sixth
in the big ten.
|
| 00:15:23 | At illinois, michigan, iowa
left on the schedule.
|
| 00:15:25 | They're among the many bubble
teams.
|
| 00:15:28 | Doug's coming back later in the
show to tell us who's in, who's
out as of today.
|
| 00:15:33 | John?
|
| 00:15:33 | until then, we'll go back
to the yacht club.
|
| 00:15:37 | From the cast of mad men, it's
matthew barnaby looking good.
|
| 00:15:42 | We're down to final four at the
olympics.
|
| 00:15:45 | Any surprises?
|
| 00:15:47 | would
still be here?
|
| 00:15:49 | >> No, I did not.
|
| 00:15:50 | I thought sweden and russia
would still be there.
|
| 00:15:53 | John: both not there anymore.
|
| 00:15:55 | U.s.a. still in it.
|
| 00:15:56 | There they are playing
switzerland.
|
| 00:15:58 | There was some concern,
switzerland, very deffsive
team.
|
| 00:16:02 | >> They have a great goaltender
in jonas hiller who plays for
the ducks in the nhl.
|
| 00:16:07 | This is as close as it gets in
the first two periods, just a
battler.
|
| 00:16:10 | But that's the swiss timing.
|
| 00:16:12 | That's why they have the extra
time on the clock.
|
| 00:16:15 | John: it's the swiss.
|
| 00:16:17 | And their timing.
|
| 00:16:18 | Hiller actually knocked this in
himself.
|
| 00:16:22 | The entire puck has to be over
the red line.
|
| 00:16:26 | 0-0.
|
| 00:16:26 | That's an easy no-call.
|
| 00:16:28 | So we enter the final 20
minutes still scoreless.
|
| 00:16:32 | on the power play trying
to get the first goal.
|
| 00:16:33 | And the incredible athleticism
of zack parise, number nine,
what lateral movement.
|
| 00:16:40 | >> Terrific in front.
|
| 00:16:41 | They need him going.
|
| 00:16:43 | Rafalski has been a beast from
the back end.
|
| 00:16:45 | Parise calling for the tip
almost and just jumping up and
over and knocks in the first of
the game.
|
| 00:16:51 | he's like sidney crosby
how good he is around the net.
|
| 00:16:56 | The next goal is gigantic
either way.
|
| 00:16:58 | The swiss think they get it.
|
| 00:17:01 | How in the wide world of sports
doesn't this puck go in?
|
| 00:17:03 | >> A terrific play by ryan
miller to cut off the angle.
|
| 00:17:07 | I don't know how it doesn't go
in.
|
| 00:17:09 | Usually it hits the post,
usually it's a tap-in.
|
| 00:17:12 | John: more miller time.
|
| 00:17:13 | He looks so big and calm.
|
| 00:17:15 | That's what you want your
goalie to be.
|
| 00:17:17 | >> He takes away the bottom of
the net.
|
| 00:17:19 | He is so good on his angles and
so calm every single second.
|
| 00:17:23 | John: u.s.a. wins.
|
| 00:17:25 | >> People keep talking about us
as underdogs, but we've played
with all the players in this
league and most of the players
that are here, we played with
them or against them and we're
more than capable of getting
the job done.
|
| 00:17:36 | >> It's easy to get frustrated,
and we did a good job of
proving that we're able to be
patient and take what's given
to us.
|
| 00:17:45 | matthew, we have to talk
more about zach parise.
|
| 00:17:47 | A lot of people in america
don't know he's one of the best
players in the nhl.
|
| 00:17:51 | His fifth season with the new
jersey devils.
|
| 00:17:53 | Very defensive-minded
organization.
|
| 00:17:55 | He has scored 136 goals over
the last four seasons.
|
| 00:17:58 | That's tied for sixth most in
the nhl.
|
| 00:18:01 | Two goals shy this year as four
straight 30-goal came pain.
|
| 00:18:07 | Last year fifth in the stats in
points.
|
| 00:18:11 | He's an incredible player.
|
| 00:18:13 | >> He is.
|
| 00:18:13 | He's small but dynamic.
|
| 00:18:15 | In the new nhl and the
olympics, it plays into his
style of play.
|
| 00:18:19 | He is so quick, and he plays
for the new jersey devils
putting up those kind of
numbers.
|
| 00:18:24 | So he is definitely one of the
big hourhouses for team u.s.a.
|
| 00:18:27 | John: dad played in the nhl.
|
| 00:18:30 | All right, canada off their
, depression
was setting in in the great
white north.
|
| 00:18:35 | They come back and pound
germany.
|
| 00:18:38 | Last night the game everyone
wanted to see, some of these
fans should feel good.
|
| 00:18:42 | All the sharks were showing up.
|
| 00:18:44 | >> They were phenomenal.
|
| 00:18:45 | They dropped the puck yesterday
and this was men playing with
boys.
|
| 00:18:48 | They came out on a mission, so
dynamic.
|
| 00:18:52 | here they go again
heatley.
|
| 00:18:57 | >> And letting it in.
|
| 00:18:59 | Everyone jumping into the mix.
|
| 00:19:00 | John: 2-0, russia.
|
| 00:19:02 | Got to get the next one.
|
| 00:19:04 | Malkin turns it over.
|
| 00:19:06 | >> That is called desperation,
playing for your country.
|
| 00:19:10 | Malkin should feel a little bit
of shame here.
|
| 00:19:12 | Oh, yes, he does.
|
| 00:19:13 | You cannot turn over the puck.
|
| 00:19:15 | And here you have brenden
morrow, he was my captain when
I played in dallas.
|
| 00:19:19 | An absolute warrior and
epitomizes what team canada
brings.
|
| 00:19:25 | Hard work ethic, domination
around the net.
|
| 00:19:29 | he is the captain for the
dallas stars.
|
| 00:19:32 | 5-1 Game.
|
| 00:19:33 | And it just went on and on and
on.
|
| 00:19:36 | It looked like an all-star
game.
|
| 00:19:38 | >> This guy can shoot the puck,
shane weber from nashville.
|
| 00:19:44 | Should have been a couple goals
earlier when it was only 4-1.
|
| 00:19:46 | I think bad coaching mistakes
from the russians.
|
| 00:19:49 | yeah, they seemed
disorganized.
|
| 00:19:52 | Malkin comes under luongo,
that's a big save.
|
| 00:19:55 | Luongo didn't look outstanding
in net.
|
| 00:19:58 | >> They were chanting his name.
|
| 00:20:00 | You see malkin.
|
| 00:20:01 | How frustrated.
|
| 00:20:02 | A little elbow to gets laugh's
face.
|
| 00:20:05 | you know what it's like
to talk trash.
|
| 00:20:08 | >> You know what?
|
| 00:20:09 | This late in the game, it was a
clean check.
|
| 00:20:13 | It's just the passion at the
end of the game, the
frustration that sets in.
|
| 00:20:18 | They should have played with
that same emotion when they
dropped the puck instead of
when it was over.
|
| 00:20:22 | crosby-ovechkin shake
hands.
|
| 00:20:24 | Crosby had no points and they
win.
|
| 00:20:26 | So the u.s. plays finland.
|
| 00:20:29 | Both those teams win 2-0.f, anoer goalie.
|
| 00:20:35 | That makes it dangerous for the
u.s.
|
| 00:20:37 | They win that game, they go to
the gold medal game.
|
| 00:20:41 | Slovakia upsets sweden 4-3.
|
| 00:20:43 | They'll play canada next.
|
| 00:20:44 | You see the action, day off
today, resumes tomorrow.
|
| 00:20:49 | Looking at the final four of
the men's side -- the women
play tonight for the gold medal
-- you saw the final four.
|
| 00:20:56 | Who plays for the gold medal?
|
| 00:20:57 | >> I think it's going to be
it's
going to be great tv.
|
| 00:21:01 | Canada losing the first game
really puts an onus on this
whole thing.
|
| 00:21:04 | team,
I think they really believe in
themselves now.
|
| 00:21:07 | They're a young team that has
everyone on their side.
|
| 00:21:11 | Maybe the best goaltender in
the tournament right now with
ryan miller.
|
| 00:21:14 | He's been fantastic this whole
tournament, and especially in
the nhl.
|
| 00:21:17 | So I don't see him quitting.
|
| 00:21:19 | And also canada, the way they
played against russia, I don't
think there is a better team
and if they play that way for
the rest of the tournament, no
one is going to touch them.
|
| 00:21:27 | it seems hard to believe
they would lose a home game.
|
| 00:21:31 | But that being said, their two
next games, if they were to
win, they have to beat two
great goaltenders.
|
| 00:21:39 | They will have to earn it.
|
| 00:21:41 | >> They certainly will.
|
| 00:21:43 | The goalies have been terrific
this whole tournament.
|
| 00:21:46 | But canada, the way they played
against russia, they are so
dominant.
|
| 00:21:49 | I think they got the scare from
team early in the
tournament.
|
| 00:21:53 | I don't think we're going to
see that anymore.
|
| 00:21:54 | They're going to keep rolling.
|
| 00:21:55 | They're just too strong, and
they are going to have to beat
good goaltenders.
|
| 00:22:00 | certainly the game
against -- a huge game for the
because it guarantees them
a medal and that would be a
great accomplishment for them.
|
| 00:22:08 | Thank you, matthew.
|
| 00:22:08 | >> Thank you.
|
| 00:22:10 | our poll question on
com -- look at
this.
|
| 00:22:15 | Folks, the patriotism is out in
full force.
|
| 00:22:17 | finish
after reaching the semifinals?
|
| 00:22:21 | 63% Of you say they are going
to go on, beat finland and then
beat either canada or slovakia
and win the gold medal.
|
| 00:22:31 | 32% Believe they'll win and
lose to canada or slovakia.
|
| 00:22:35 | Good to see hope.
|
| 00:22:36 | It's morning again in america.
|
| 00:22:39 | coming up, kevin durant
put up incredible numbers this
season.
|
| 00:22:42 | Where does he rank among the
nba's top players?
|
| 00:22:45 | Jalen rose will surprise you
with his answer.
|
| 00:22:49 | Several bubble teams, including
the irish, playing last night.
|
| 00:22:52 | Doug gottlieb is back to tell
us based on the latest results
who's in, who's out of the
tournament.
|
| 00:26:36 | welcome back to
"sportscenter" live.
|
| 00:26:37 | I'm john buccigross with chris
mckendry.
|
| 00:26:40 | Kevin durant has scored at
least 25 points in 29 straight
games, trying to make it 30
against san antonio last night.
|
| 00:26:46 | It looked like he would.
|
| 00:26:47 | He got off to a good start.
|
| 00:26:49 | First quarter, thunder down.
|
| 00:26:50 | And look at this shot.
|
| 00:26:53 | Unbelievable.
|
| 00:26:56 | Gets a piece of the ball or
something to cause him to lose
his balance.
|
| 00:27:01 | He's kind of messed up.
|
| 00:27:04 | His foot is behind the line.
|
| 00:27:05 | But it still goes in.
|
| 00:27:09 | Again durant, once he puts the
ball above his head, the wing
span is well over a
seven-footer.
|
| 00:27:17 | An eight-footer.
|
| 00:27:20 | Durant and the thunder down by
four in the third.
|
| 00:27:24 | Russell westbrook, kevin
durant.
|
| 00:27:28 | Looks like 25 is going to be a
piece of cake.
|
| 00:27:30 | He's got 21 through three, so
all he needs is four points in
the final frame to extend that
streak to 30 straight with the
lead 25.
|
| 00:27:38 | Meanwhile, the game is spurs by
one.
|
| 00:27:41 | Here comes durant.
|
| 00:27:43 | A piece of cake, whoa!
|
| 00:27:45 | Where did manu ginobili come
from?
|
| 00:27:50 | That made an impression on
thunderhead coach scott brooks.
|
| 00:27:54 | If you didn't know who the
thunder's head coach was, it's
spot brooks.
|
| 00:28:00 | Talking about ginobili's dunk
on durant.
|
| 00:28:03 | Ginobili, I love him --
so ginobili, humble and
he has range.
|
| 00:28:16 | For three.
|
| 00:28:17 | They double down on duncan just
momentarily.
|
| 00:28:19 | Of course, timmy finds the open
man.
|
| 00:28:22 | Ginobili had more points than
durant.
|
| 00:28:24 | Durant stuck on 21 the entire
quarter.
|
| 00:28:27 | He gets shut out in the fourth
quarter.
|
| 00:28:28 | His streak of at least 25 comes
to an end at 29 straight.
|
| 00:28:35 | Still a great streak for a
great player, but on this night
frizzles at the end and the
spurs win.
|
| 00:28:42 | Taking a look at kevin durant's
25-point streak by the numbers.
|
| 00:28:45 | 64.
|
| 00:28:45 | That's how many days the run
lasted.
|
| 00:28:48 | Last time he scored fewer than
25 points was all the way back
before christmas, december 19.
|
| 00:28:54 | 4 points per
game during this streak.
|
| 00:28:59 | Of at least 25 points.
|
| 00:29:01 | Shooting over 50%.
|
| 00:29:02 | As you can see in this video,
some of them are from far out.
|
| 00:29:06 | Thunder as a whole have
benefited.
|
| 00:29:08 | This is not a player on a fad
team just gunning like in the
old nba days.
|
| 00:29:13 | This team has been good.
|
| 00:29:15 | They won 20 games in that span.
|
| 00:29:17 | 500 to 10 games
over.
|
| 00:29:20 | And he becomes just the fourth
forward in nba history to amass
29 straight games or more of at
least 25.
|
| 00:29:28 | Bob mcadoo, spencer heywood,
rick berry.
|
| 00:29:31 | Top 10 players according to
you, jalen rose.
|
| 00:29:33 | The nba makes everyone a free
agent.
|
| 00:29:35 | We're going to have a redraft.
|
| 00:29:37 | You have kobe going first
overall and kevin durant at
seven.
|
| 00:29:40 | People say seven?
|
| 00:29:41 | We see him on "sportscenter"
every night.
|
| 00:29:43 | >> This is what I want people
to understand because
everybody's going to be hitting
me up on twitter saying where
is tim duncan?
|
| 00:29:49 | What's going on with the list?
|
| 00:29:51 | For example, the reason why
they have player of the week
and player of the month is
because that changes, just like
this list changes.
|
| 00:29:59 | John: sure.
|
| 00:30:00 | >> So if a player is not
getting it done next week, he
won't be on the list.
|
| 00:30:03 | It's kind of like king of the
court or playing horse.
|
| 00:30:07 | It's about right now.
|
| 00:30:10 | John: why is durant seven?
|
| 00:30:11 | And I agree with you.
|
| 00:30:13 | I like that list because most
people would say ok, kobe,
lebron and then durant.
|
| 00:30:20 | >> My top five, if you notice,
they're not only great scorers,
20-point scorers, but they're
all nba defenders.
|
| 00:30:28 | When you talk kobe bryant, you
talk lebron james, dwyane wade,
dwight howard, chris paul.
|
| 00:30:34 | These are all guys that change
games defensively as well as
offensively.
|
| 00:30:40 | The next tier of players can
get there.
|
| 00:30:42 | Durant, he's 21 years old.
|
| 00:30:44 | Ok?
|
| 00:30:45 | He's barely old enough to
drink.
|
| 00:30:47 | He's going to have another time
where he scores 29, 30 points
in a row for 25 straight games,
etc.
|
| 00:30:55 | But he hasn't got to the point
where he's dominating games
defensively yet, rebounding
yet, but he will get there.
|
| 00:31:02 | This is a great list.
|
| 00:31:03 | We have a great league going
on.
|
| 00:31:05 | "espn the magazine" had a
great piece on durant.
|
| 00:31:07 | This guy is committed to his
contrast.
|
| 00:31:08 | He's a serious professional.
|
| 00:31:10 | Like you said, he will get
better.
|
| 00:31:12 | >> He's 6'10".
|
| 00:31:13 | The sky is the limit.
|
| 00:31:15 | John: thank you, jalen.
|
| 00:31:18 | Durant, you stack up his
numbers against lebron and kobe
this season so far.
|
| 00:31:22 | He's tied with james for the
nba lead in points.
|
| 00:31:25 | And durant averages more
rebounds than either james or
bryant.
|
| 00:31:31 | Chris: time for a now?
|
| 00:31:32 | Now?
|
| 00:31:36 | "
casey hampton was agreed to a
contract with the team, $11
million in guaranteed money.
|
| 00:31:41 | Nine-year veteran has 43
tackles last year.
|
| 00:31:43 | The deadline for teams to use
00
eastern time.
|
| 00:31:50 | A source tells the "boston
herald" that patriots' wes
welker is recovering well from
knee injury.
|
| 00:31:58 | Had the procedure three weeks
ago to repair a torn a.c.l.
|
| 00:32:01 | Suffered against houston.
|
| 00:32:02 | Status for the start of next
season remains uncertain.
|
| 00:32:07 | Prosecutors in south florida
will not file rape charges
against former cowboys star
hall of famer michael irvin.
|
| 00:32:14 | A woman filed a civil lawsuit
earlier this month in broward
county, florida, seeking
damages for a sexual assault
that allegedly occurred fourth
of july weekend in 2007.
|
| 00:32:24 | The state's attorney's office
said there's not physical
evidence to support the woman's
claims as she waited more than
two weeks to report the
lawsuit.
|
| 00:32:35 | The woman's civil lawsuit and
michael irvin's countersuit are
still pending.
|
| 00:32:39 | The wizards have bought out the
final year of ilgauskas'
contract after he was acquired
from the cavs.
|
| 00:32:45 | The buyout cost the player
5 million, but he is
now free to sign with any team
immediately or re-sign with the
cavs in 30 days.
|
| 00:32:54 | John: women's giant slalom.
|
| 00:32:57 | That's lindsey vonn.
|
| 00:32:57 | And this is lindsey vonn out of
control and crashing on the
course in whistler.
|
| 00:33:05 | You see the conditions, dicey.
|
| 00:33:08 | Meanwhile, julia mancuso starts
her run, but the problem was
the yellow flag comes up
because vonn is still on the
track.
|
| 00:33:16 | You can see here she goes down
hard, bam.
|
| 00:33:19 | She would have a broken right
pinkie.
|
| 00:33:24 | Meanwhile, mancuso has to jump
on the snowmobile, go back up
to the top of the mountain and
run and as a result in the end,
the german woman would win.
|
| 00:33:40 | So this adds to the medal count
for germany now who's right on
the heels of the americans.
|
| 00:33:45 | As we mentioned before, the
women's hockey team plays
30 tonight for the
gold medal.
|
| 00:33:51 | medal count will go
to 29, just a matter of whether
it's gold or silver.
|
| 00:33:56 | So lindsey vonn and julia
mancuso, neither medal in the
giant slalom.
|
| 00:34:06 | back to the hoops we go
for notre dame and pitt.
|
| 00:34:10 | Luke harangody out a third
consecutive game, but he's
added to the ring of honor.
|
| 00:34:14 | Number 44 in the rafters and
actually notre dame last night
took 44 shots.
|
| 00:34:19 | Made 22 of them.
|
| 00:34:21 | Doug gottlieb, they were
inspired early on from behind
the arc.
|
| 00:34:25 | >> I had a bad case of
abromitis, but it put cream on
it and it went away.
|
| 00:34:33 | Chris: ellis, what else?
|
| 00:34:35 | >> Pittsburgh averages 69
points per game.
|
| 00:34:38 | Notre dame was able to hold
them to 453 points.
|
| 00:34:40 | They did so by limiting their
second-chance opportunities on
the board, by not turning the
basketball over and taking away
all driving lanes, making it
very difficult for this
pittsburgh team to score in the
half court.
|
| 00:34:53 | the irish snapped a
three-game skid.
|
| 00:34:55 | It's 68-53.
|
| 00:34:57 | Irish at georgetown, noon on
saturday.
|
| 00:35:00 | So they did prove they can win
without their star, harangody.
|
| 00:35:04 | He's not expected to be ready
for that game against the
hoyas.
|
| 00:35:07 | But will they need him?
|
| 00:35:08 | We shall see.
|
| 00:35:09 | Doug gottlieb, many teams in,
many teams out, and many more
on the bubble, including the
irish.
|
| 00:35:14 | How do you see them today?
|
| 00:35:15 | >> Well, it's interesting,
chris, that in the selection
room, they sully say under
consideration.
|
| 00:35:20 | They have a big board of teams
that are under consideration.
|
| 00:35:23 | We have our under consideration
board.
|
| 00:35:25 | Notre dame wasn't on this board
until yesterday.
|
| 00:35:27 | Now you get a win, you got pitt
and west virginia, both at
home, that's a bad loss to
loyola of marrymount.
|
| 00:35:38 | If they got harangody back and
if they would win out, they
could get in.
|
| 00:35:44 | Here's what's killing them.
|
| 00:35:45 | They played a soft
out-of-conference schedule to.
|
| 00:35:48 | Me notre dame right now is out.
|
| 00:35:49 | They could play their way in.
|
| 00:35:50 | I think they need harangody
back or they need to beat
georgetown at georgetown.
|
| 00:35:56 | It's a winnable game.
|
| 00:35:58 | We've seen them lose to old
dominion.
|
| 00:36:01 | The team they lost to that
we're not having a discussion
that I think has moved into
under consideration, they take
on marquette coming up this
sunday, seton hall.
|
| 00:36:09 | No bad losses.
|
| 00:36:11 | They beat louisville.
|
| 00:36:12 | They've beaten pittsburgh.
|
| 00:36:13 | They beat cornell at cornell,
who would have thought?
|
| 00:36:17 | That goes down as an
outstanding win.
|
| 00:36:20 | Strength of schedule at 18.
|
| 00:36:22 | Seton hall out, but also has
the opportunity to play their
way in.
|
| 00:36:26 | A team that was in, has played
their way out but last night a
dominating performance over st.
|
| 00:36:33 | Joe's, they beat louisville at
louisville, beat richmond at
richmond.
|
| 00:36:38 | Another top 50 win.
|
| 00:36:39 | Here's a good one, compare it
to notre dame.
|
| 00:36:43 | 7-5 True road games in terms of
the mostt thing you'll
do in college basketball,
that's win on the road.
|
| 00:36:49 | Charlotte, I believe, has moved
in based on what took place
last night.
|
| 00:36:52 | Speaking of last night,
virginia tech was solidly in
the field, but they go on the
road, lay an absolute
boston college.
|
| 00:36:58 | They also lost to north
carolina.
|
| 00:37:01 | That wouldn't look like a bad
loss normally, it's an awful
loss now.
|
| 00:37:05 | Here's the big thing, 15-1
against the r.p.i. top 100.
|
| 00:37:09 | Total just 21 wins.
|
| 00:37:11 | In other words, they're beating
up on bad teams or the computer
says they're bad teams.
|
| 00:37:16 | I think they're in, but I think
virginia tech still has work to
do in order to stay in the
field.
|
| 00:37:21 | And the last team, and this is
the big thing, at florida
state, georgia tech at wake
forest.
|
| 00:37:26 | They are 3-6 against the r.p.i.
|
| 00:37:28 | Top 50.
|
| 00:37:29 | All three of these are r.p.i.
|
| 00:37:31 | Top 50 games.
|
| 00:37:33 | Just 7-6 in the a.c.c.
|
| 00:37:36 | I believe clemson is in but
based on that schedule if they
were to lose two out of three
and lose their first game in
tournament, they
would play their way under
consideration or probably out.
|
| 00:37:44 | So still a lot of fluidity and
last night clemson, virginia
tech losing kind of opened them
up to speculation of possibly
falling out of the tournament.
|
| 00:37:53 | selection sunday is two
weeks, and there is still a ton
of work to be done.
|
| 00:37:58 | Doug gottlieb, thanks.
|
| 00:37:59 | spaulding, get your foot
off the boat.
|
| 00:38:03 | Ozzie guillen, never a loss for
words.

involves twittering.

|
| 00:42:24 | Big ten.
|
| 00:42:25 | Ohio state and evan turner on
the road at penn state.
|
| 00:42:28 | Buckeyes haven't lost to penn
state since january of 2004.
|
| 00:42:32 | Early first half, evan turner
misses the j.
|
| 00:42:39 | David lighty is there.
|
| 00:42:41 | Second half, buckeyes up five.
|
| 00:42:42 | Ooh!
|
| 00:42:44 | That's strong.
|
| 00:42:46 | And then more, well beyond the
arc, hits a three.
|
| 00:42:49 | Ohio state is up 17 at this
point in the second half.
|
| 00:42:52 | Jeff brooks, a nice spin move
and the hoop.
|
| 00:42:55 | Penn state fighting back, down
just fine.
|
| 00:42:57 | Next penn state possession,
david jackson.
|
| 00:43:00 | Oh, and one.
|
| 00:43:03 | Penn state down three after the
missed free throw.
|
| 00:43:06 | Off the dribble, evan turner,
second straight game he just
pulled away, carried the team
down the stretch.
|
| 00:43:14 | 7-10 Shooting in the second
half.
|
| 00:43:16 | He finishes with 25 and seven
assists and the buckeyes hold
on to win.
|
| 00:43:21 | Men's college hoops, espn2
tonight.
|
| 00:43:24 | 00 Eastern, tulsa taking on
jon scheyer and duke.
|
| 00:43:28 | 00 eastern, john
wall and the wildcats looking
to avenge that early season
loss to south carolina.
|
| 00:43:34 | Thursday night showcase all
part of judgment week tonight,
espn2.
|
| 00:43:40 | we are 56 days away from
the nfl draft, april 22, first
round prime time live right
here on espn.
|
| 00:43:47 | Mel kiper jr. joins us now.
|
| 00:43:49 | Mel, do you have one of those
countdown calendars we see
around the holiday season where
you open the door up?
|
| 00:43:55 | >> I don't, john.
|
| 00:43:56 | The snow coming in baltimore,
you hope that the snow is
melted by april 22.
|
| 00:43:59 | And I would say it should be,
barring another foot, two feet
of snow sometime between now
and the draft.
|
| 00:44:06 | been a tough wint ner
baltimore.
|
| 00:44:08 | A bit of a tough winter for tim
tebow.
|
| 00:44:10 | Many still question his
nfl-caliber play.
|
| 00:44:13 | We've seen his video of him
changing his deliferely, the
sleeveless, the ski cap and the
shorts.
|
| 00:44:21 | Mel, will these adjustments
he's trying to make now, could
this affect his draft stock?
|
| 00:44:25 | >> I don't think so, john.
|
| 00:44:26 | If it would have happened in
august, it would have worked
through the season where you
could have seen him going
against defenses, not air, it
may have been a bigger factor.
|
| 00:44:36 | If you like tim tebow, I think
the senior bowl week hurt him,
he's actually open to tweaking
that delivery, he's not going
to fight it.
|
| 00:44:43 | If you didn't like tim tebow as
a quarterback, nothing is going
to change your opinion n fact,
it may be more etched in stone
that he's not a quarterback and
he's more of an h-back, if
that's the position he ends up
playing at the pro level after
the initial start at the
quarterback position.
|
| 00:44:58 | well, the combine's
underway.
|
| 00:45:00 | Let's talk about another
quarterback, colt mccoy.
|
| 00:45:02 | He's been advised not to throw
at the combine.
|
| 00:45:04 | He will throw at his pro day
march 31.
|
| 00:45:07 | Doctors say he shouldn't throw.
|
| 00:45:09 | Talk about the concern for
mccoy's injury on top of any
concerns they had going into
the draft?
|
| 00:45:15 | >> Injuries, to me, aren't the
big concern.
|
| 00:45:18 | It's the fact that he didn't
have a chance against alabama,
that defense, to play that game
and show what he could do.
|
| 00:45:24 | He had struggles in their other
big games, nebraska being one
of those and oklahoma the
other.
|
| 00:45:29 | So I think when you look at
colt mccoy, he doesn't have the
great physical ability, the
size or the arm strength to wow
you over during a workout
anyway, even if he was 100%.
|
| 00:45:38 | My attitude with colt mccoy, if
you think he's jake plummer,
like I do, you think maybe
second, third round.
|
| 00:45:44 | But the days of thinking first
round ended a long time ago.
|
| 00:45:47 | who needs to step up at
the combine to get the kind of
money they want?
|
| 00:45:51 | >> I think dez bryant will
start out.
|
| 00:45:54 | They know about the ncaa
suspension, cut out half the
season for him.
|
| 00:45:58 | A junior coming out early.
|
| 00:46:00 | This kid is big, physically
talented, but the speed, that's
the question he's going have to
show.
|
| 00:46:05 | That 40 time is going to be
very important for dez bryant
to solidify a top 10 or 12
grade in the first round.
|
| 00:46:11 | He will remain as the top wide
receiver no matter what.
|
| 00:46:15 | He needs a good combine.
|
| 00:46:17 | Golden tailt from notre dame.
|
| 00:46:19 | He didn't get a lot of
separation but he was great
after the catch.
|
| 00:46:23 | That means he's quick, not
necessarily fast.
|
| 00:46:26 | If he turns out to be fast and
quick and run an impressive 40
time, he could catapult into
the late first round.
|
| 00:46:32 | I'm thinking more second round
for him.
|
| 00:46:33 | Finally let's go to the
defensive side of the ball and
safety taylor mays.
|
| 00:46:37 | You say may be overhyped during
his career.
|
| 00:46:39 | Bottom line is the kid's got
great physical and athletic
ability.
|
| 00:46:43 | This workout should showcase
that.
|
| 00:46:44 | He's also got that great
character, intelligence for the
game of football.
|
| 00:46:48 | When he interviews, that should
help him.
|
| 00:46:50 | Taylor mays needs to nail the
process at the combine to
re-establish himself as a first
round draft choice.
|
| 00:46:56 | nfl draft april 22 live
on espn.
|
| 00:46:58 | Mel kiper, bend your knees when
you shovel.
|
| 00:47:02 | >> I'll try, john.
|
| 00:47:03 | Take care.
|

|
| 00:47:28 | Chris: you are ron burgundy.
|
| 00:47:30 | We have news just in from the
olympics and that is lindsey
vonn will race in tomorrow's
ladies' slalom despite breaking
her small finger yesterday.
|
| 00:47:42 | is expected vonn
will race in the slalom.
|
| 00:47:46 | That's her final event.
|
| 00:47:46 | She has two medals.
|
| 00:47:49 | For reference in the world cup
she has been on the podium five
times in the slalom event with
two victories.
|
| 00:47:57 | >> I almost put the machine
between the game.
|
| 00:48:00 | If those guys want me to treat
them like little leaguers, i
will treat them like little
leaguers.
|
| 00:48:07 | >> How you doing, ozzie?
|
| 00:48:08 | >> Oh, [beep].
|
| 00:48:09 | I don't know if you love me the
same way.
|
| 00:48:14 | There's no reason [beep].
|
| 00:48:16 | Listen, I'm talking with twice
that are [beep].
|
| 00:48:18 | >> Ozzie, clean up your damn
mouth when you're talking on
the radio.
|
| 00:48:22 | You talk to me with some
respect.
|
| 00:48:25 | >> I don't like when players
are saying ozzie is just being
ozzie.
|
| 00:48:29 | That's an excuse.
|
| 00:48:30 | Ozzie is just being honest.
|
| 00:48:32 | There's one thing about
players, you protect their
[beep] 140 games and you say
one thing about them one day,
all of a sudden you're a bad
person.
|
| 00:48:43 | I'm not protecting anybody
anymore.
|
| 00:48:45 | [Beep].
|
| 00:48:51 | We think we're going to win
with the offense we have, we're
full of [beep].
|
| 00:48:55 | That's just being honest.
|
| 00:48:57 | unpredictable and
profane, a reality show.
|
| 00:49:01 | The white sox reality tv show
in waiting will wait no more.
|
| 00:49:06 | Major league baseball will
produce a series called "the
club," starring ozzie guillen,
kenny williams and jerry
reinsdorf.
|
| 00:49:13 | Guillen likely free to express
his colorful self for that
show, but his twitter account
is not sitting well with the
"
williams is not pleased and has
expressed as much publicly and
privately to guillen.
|
| 00:49:29 | >> Kenny was upset.
|
| 00:49:31 | I don't blame him because he
want to know what's going on,
want to know why, want to know
what I talk about.
|
| 00:49:37 | I said hey, it's just a
personal thing.
|
| 00:49:39 | I want to have fun like
everybody else does.
|
| 00:49:42 | Like today I'm going to
barbecue with my kids.
|
| 00:49:46 | What's wrong with that?
|
| 00:49:48 | Yesterday I said how bad i
played golf.
|
| 00:49:50 | That's going to be every day
because every time I play golf,
I'm very bad.
|
| 00:49:56 | I talked to kenny about it.
|
| 00:49:58 | It's not going to be nothing
with the ball club.
|
| 00:50:00 | We talk about the ball club,
it's my responsibility.
|
| 00:50:02 | It's a lot of people in
baseball have twitter.
|
| 00:50:05 | and for the other
inion, the yin and the yang,
lou piniella had this to say --
that's how he
communicates with prime rib?
|
| 00:50:33 | Hello?

|
| 00:54:54 | That will be a competitive
basketball game.
|
| 00:54:56 | In game number two, dwight
howard made all 11 shots last
night against the rockets.
|
| 00:55:01 | 11-11.
|
| 00:55:02 | They were taking on the hornets
in new orleans.
|
| 00:55:05 | uconn, number one in the
world, taking on syracuse.
|
| 00:55:08 | Maya moore --
john: number one in the world?
|

erica morrow who then throws a
punch.
|
| 00:55:38 | She's tossed.
|
| 00:55:41 | Uconn wins its 67th straight
game.
|
| 00:55:46 | Flash it back to when they
faced each other in january of
2009.
|
| 00:55:49 | That game was also physical and
in the handshake line geno
auriemma said a player tried to
trip him.
|
| 00:55:58 | This year, a bit more cordial.
|
| 00:56:01 | Uconn, 67 straight wins.
|
| 00:56:02 | Moore, 38 points, 20 boards.
|
| 00:56:05 | Uconn has beaten cuse now 18
straight.
|
| 00:56:07 | You know, the ladies have won
5 points
per game this year.
|
| 00:56:13 | And now their streak is just
three shy of the women's and
the school record, 70 games.
|
| 00:56:17 | After that, they're going to
start chasing down the bruins
of the 1970's and that record
88 straight wins.
|
| 00:56:27 | Count them down, john.

|
| 00:56:41 | And it's good for a winner.
|

|
| 00:57:33 | That's amazing.
|
| 00:57:35 | The left arm is hooked.
|
| 00:57:37 | He grabs the rebound with one
hand and shoots it with the one
hand or arm.
|
| 00:57:41 | And he made it.
|
| 00:57:43 | Xavier wins.
|
| 00:57:47 | depaul and cincinnati,
under 10 seconds to play.
|
| 00:57:51 | Lance stephenson, the

|

|
| 00:58:10 | The danny manning wrist bands
real close to his hand.
|

|

|

|
| 00:58:27 | The big block on durant.
|
| 00:58:32 | but the number one play
belongs to marquette's jimmy
butler.
|
| 00:58:36 | Yep.
|
| 00:58:39 | The butler did it!
|
| 00:58:41 | At the buzzer.
|
| 00:58:43 | I love their uniforms.
|
| 00:58:44 | Love the baby blues.
|
| 00:58:46 | They need it.
|
| 00:58:46 | They needed it.
|
| 00:58:47 | And they get it over st.
|
| 00:58:48 | John's.
|
| 00:58:52 | Chris: hi, everyone.
|
| 00:58:53 | "Sportscenter" rolls along.
|
| 00:58:54 | We have another hour to
|
| 00:00:01 | Women's slalom.
|
| 00:00:02 | A two-time overall world cup
champion already has overcomed
a badly bruised shin to win the
olympic downhill.
|
| 00:00:10 | She broke her right pinkie
yesterday in a crash.
|
| 00:00:14 | George smith joins us live from
vancouver.
|
| 00:00:18 | What went into the decision to
ski tomorrow?
|
| 00:00:22 | >> Well, as you know, brian,
she's got a golds and a bronze
but this is the last event and
her last chance to get another
medal.
|
| 00:00:32 | coach has said she's
skied with injuries far worse
than a broken pinkie and he
thinks she'll be fine.
|
| 00:00:42 | He said 100% she'll ski and
she's been to the podium five
times in the world cup with two
wins, so brian, something that
she could be very successful in
if she's able to go tomorrow.
|
| 00:00:54 | >> Also, julia mancuso was the
defending gold medalist in that
slalom.
|
| 00:01:02 | She had to stop her run because
of the crash, go back and case
-- race again.
|
| 00:01:09 | Did she get jobbed?
|
| 00:01:12 | >> Really awful timing.
|
| 00:01:14 | There was not much she could
do.
|
| 00:01:16 | Vonn was down, being treated.
|
| 00:01:19 | It was foggy up at the top of
the course.
|
| 00:01:23 | Mancuso went down.
|
| 00:01:24 | They stopped her mid run.
|
| 00:01:27 | They had to bring her back up,
she had to wait to get a second
chance and by the time she ran
she didn't do very well.
|
| 00:01:37 | Very bad circumstances for her
yesterday.
|
| 00:01:40 | >> George smith live in
vancouver.
|
| 00:01:43 | Thank you, george.
|
| 00:01:45 | The giant slalom did finish
today.
|
| 00:01:48 | Mancuso was eighth.
|
| 00:01:50 | Germany's skier won gold.
|
| 00:02:00 | Vonn finished 14th in the
slalom at the 2006 games in
triano.
|
| 00:02:05 | hockey team with a
day off as they get ready for
medal round play tomorrow.
|
| 00:02:12 | Close battle against
switzerland yesterday.
|
| 00:02:15 | Scoreless in the third.
|
| 00:02:16 | On the power play, zach parise
on the board
first.
|
| 00:02:22 | Watch the replay.
|
| 00:02:24 | Jamie langenbrunner ties up the
defense man, allowing parise to
get the goal.
|
| 00:02:30 | not able to clear the
puck later on.
|
| 00:02:33 | Miller gets caught out of
position.
|
| 00:02:35 | It looks like he scores but
play continues.
|
| 00:02:37 | From overhead the puck didn't
cross the line, no goal.
|
| 00:02:41 | Miller was fantastic.
|
| 00:02:43 | 19 Saves.
|
| 00:02:46 | winning this one 2-0
to advance and they get a shot
at some revenge with finland,
who knocked out the americans
in the quarterfinals of the
2006 games, preventing the
americans from medaling.
|
| 00:03:01 | Undefeated and number one,
here's bob holtzman.
|
| 00:03:05 | >> Not even two weeks ago the
american hockey team was an
afterthought in this tournament
and they knew it.
|
| 00:03:13 | >> Ask everyone in this room.
|
| 00:03:14 | Write down and put in a hat
like "survivor" who's going to
win.
|
| 00:03:21 | Not many put us down.
|
| 00:03:23 | >> Four wins later, including
one over canada, the perception
has changed.
|
| 00:03:29 | >> The cat might be out of the
bag and we can't play the
underdog role anymore.
|
| 00:03:37 | I think every team realizes
that you're in the semis for a
season.
|
| 00:03:41 | -- Reason.
|
| 00:03:42 | There aren't any secrets
anymore.
|
| 00:03:44 | >> I think we know there's
still another level in the
tank, which is still scary.
|
| 00:03:50 | I don't know if we've played
our best game yet.
|
| 00:03:52 | >> Next up is finland, a team
that plays an up and down nhl
style.
|
| 00:03:59 | Their goalie the americans know
well from the calgary flames.
|
| 00:04:03 | -- Flames.
|
| 00:04:04 | >> I know from playing against
him in the playoffs last year
we -- he doesn't like traffic
either.
|
| 00:04:10 | You get in front of him you get
him trust inered and it throws
him off his game.
|
| 00:04:15 | >> As great as american goalie
ryan miller has been.
|
| 00:04:22 | Kiprusoff has been better.
|
| 00:04:23 | He has the tournament's best
game percentage.
|
| 00:04:26 | Miller is number two.
|
| 00:04:27 | >> We now welcome in matthew
barnaby.
|
| 00:04:31 | against finland, the
winner advancing to the gold
medal round.
|
| 00:04:36 | How does this matchup look for
the americans?
|
| 00:04:38 | >> I think it's great.
|
| 00:04:39 | The american team is a big
physical team with a lot of
speed up front.
|
| 00:04:43 | This is exactly what you want.
|
| 00:04:46 | You have the best goaltender.
|
| 00:04:47 | In tournaments but if you talk
about the north american game
and what's going to make them
successful, get pucks deep, use
your speed.
|
| 00:04:59 | You look at ryan miller.
|
| 00:05:00 | He has been terrific all year
long for the buffalo sabres and
for team u.s.a.
|
| 00:05:07 | He's the main reason why they
beat canada and I don't see
them stopping in this medal
round.
|
| 00:05:14 | >> The other final four game
featuring canada, off a
dominating win over russia.
|
| 00:05:21 | Now they face off against
slovakia.
|
| 00:05:25 | What are you looking for?
|
| 00:05:26 | >> Canada has to continue the
play they brought against the
russians.
|
| 00:05:32 | A big physical, fast team that
plays that up and down style.
|
| 00:05:37 | Attack.
|
| 00:05:37 | If you saw the way they came
out against the russians in the
first 10 minutes, slovakia is
going to have to weather a heck
of a storm in the first 10
minutes of the game.
|
| 00:05:49 | There's not going to be any
stopping them if they play the
way they did against russia.
|
| 00:05:54 | >> What is the gold medal
match-up?
|
| 00:05:56 | >> It is going to be canada
against the u.s.
|
| 00:05:59 | I think right now the
has is
terrific.
|
| 00:06:02 | They have a great goaltender
and canada is the most elite
team in the tournament.
|
| 00:06:06 | They've really hit their
stride.
|
| 00:06:08 | I see this being a rematch of
what we saw in the preliminaryy
round.
|
| 00:06:15 | >> If it happens that way i
can't imagine what it's going
to be like in north america.
|
| 00:06:20 | >> For them to answer the bell
and the questions they had on
them.
|
| 00:06:25 | The run was incredible but just
as -- the pressure on them is
incredible.
|
| 00:06:31 | But they analyzed the bell
against a russian team.
|
| 00:06:33 | I hope it's the u.s.a. team vs.
|
| 00:06:40 | Canada.
|
| 00:06:41 | deserves to be
there.
|
| 00:06:44 | >> Bigger than a seventh
stanley cup game.
|
| 00:06:49 | >> Gold is the goal in
vancouver and we're going to go
one-on-one with the man who
's chances in
his gloved hand.
|
| 00:06:57 | >> To baseball.
|
| 00:06:59 | A vastly different entrance
into spring training this year
for lex alex rodriguez.
|
| 00:07:08 | Last year he was answering to
questions of steroid use.
|
| 00:07:15 | Here's david amber.
|
| 00:07:18 | >> Alex rodriguez back at
yankees camp and back in front
of the cameras.
|
| 00:07:24 | This time, though, no apologize
under the backdrop of a
steroids scandal.
|
| 00:07:30 | Instead, he's barvinging in the
glow of his playoff heroics
from last fall.
|
| 00:07:34 | >> It's definitely a much
different day.
|
| 00:07:37 | That's clear to me.
|
| 00:07:38 | And last year obviously was a
very embarrassing day and i
felt as low as any person or
any athlete could probably be
to where we ended in early
november is something that,
again, I'm in awe of, and i
couldn't believe it was me it
was happening to.
|
| 00:07:56 | >> Last spring was the most
difficult spring of his career.
|
| 00:08:00 | He had the weight of the world
on his shoulders.
|
| 00:08:03 | He handled it, faced it, got
through it and came out on top.
|
| 00:08:09 | >> Rodriguez said he never had
more fun playing baseball than
he did last year and he finally
had a comfort level with his
teammates.
|
| 00:08:19 | >> It wasn't a monkey.
|
| 00:08:22 | It was a humongous gorilla that
came off my back.
|
| 00:08:27 | It was a heavy gorilla.
|
| 00:08:29 | >> Rodriguez described his
steroids scandal as hitting
rock bottom but says he's now
comfortable as a person and
baseball player.
|
| 00:08:39 | He described the 2009 season as
a magical ride, adding it's a
ride he'd like to take again.
|
| 00:08:47 | >> Rodriguez even coming off
hip surgery last season.
|
| 00:08:54 | Finished up with 30 home runs
and 100 r.b.i.'s.
|
| 00:09:02 | >> What a difference a year
makes, huh?

with high hopes at the nfl

|

|
| 00:17:51 | Olympic hockey team's success
increase the fans' interest in
the nhl?
|
| 00:17:57 | >> No, we are a bandwagon
country.
|
| 00:18:02 | We will absolutely wrap
ourselves in the flag and
celebrate lance armstrong.
|
| 00:18:08 | We don't care about cycling but
that doesn't mean that two
years later everyone is going
to be on bicycles.
|
| 00:18:15 | The 1 0 olympic hockey team
was the biggest upside for
hockey.
|
| 00:18:21 | >> We didn't care about hockey
before that game was played.
|
| 00:18:25 | You're absolutely right about
that.
|
| 00:18:27 | We're bandwagon.
|
| 00:18:28 | We come to the big event and we
don't care the other times of
the year.
|
| 00:18:32 | The nhl is not like the nba.
|
| 00:18:34 | In the nba, even though you
have a great new influx of
international players, it is
driven by americans.
|
| 00:18:40 | By american-born players.
|
| 00:18:42 | That is not the case in the
nhl.
|
| 00:18:44 | When you have great players
from all over the place, only
two -- who?
|

of the top 15 or 1 players are
american players.

russia, sweden, finland.
|
| 00:19:00 | They're from all over -- other
the place.

internationally based in the
first place.
|
| 00:19:07 | >> Does it bring one fan?
|
| 00:19:11 | If they win the gold medal does
it bring one fan to one nhl
game?
|
| 00:19:16 | >> Yes, it does but is it going

this future star.
|
| 00:26:53 | >> Tommy, second spring
training here.
|
| 00:26:56 | Last year you were coming in
trying to earn a spot.
|
| 00:27:00 | This year off spot on the
starting rotation.
|
| 00:27:03 | Describe how that feels?
|
| 00:27:05 | >> Definitely, I feel a lot
more comfortable coming into
this spring and I have a better
idea of what to expect and
what's going on.
|
| 00:27:13 | Last spring I was trying to get
my feet wet and learn as much
as possible.
|
| 00:27:18 | This spring I feel a lot more
comfortable and definitely
ready for the season.
|
| 00:27:22 | >> Such a great rookie campaign
for you last year with votes
for rookie of the year.
|
| 00:27:28 | What did you learn over the
course of the season?
|
| 00:27:30 | >> The biggest thing I learned
in my first start was guys are
going to make adjustments.
|
| 00:27:36 | The first time through the
order I had good results and
the second time through they
made adjustments.
|
| 00:27:43 | That's the thing I learned,
guys in the big leagues are
going to adjust and you have to
do the same thing.
|
| 00:27:49 | >> What's it going to take for
the braves to get back into the
postseason?
|
| 00:27:53 | >> It's going to be a tough
division.
|
| 00:27:55 | Obviously the phillies, the
marlins, nationals, melts.
|
| 00:27:58 | Everyone has a good team.
|
| 00:28:00 | I think the biggest thing is
for our guys to stay healthy.
|
| 00:28:04 | And I think with our rotation
and our bullpen, and you know,
with adding glaus and guys like
that I think we're going to be
ok.
|
| 00:28:15 | If we can stay healthy I think
we should have a pretty good
season.
|
| 00:28:20 | >> Stay healthy, have a great
season.

|
| 00:28:41 | Bidding for julius peppers can
start on march 5.
|
| 00:28:45 | He'll likely be the most
sought-free agent on the
market.
|
| 00:28:50 | He recorded 10 1/2 sacks in his
final season with the carolina
panthers and made over $8
million in 2009.
|
| 00:28:59 | Tommy for more coors light cold
hard packs.
|
| 00:29:03 | Nfl insider adam schefter.
|
| 00:29:05 | Who is the hottest free agent
out there not named julius
peppers?
|
| 00:29:11 | >> Karlos dansby, the
cardinals' linebacker.
|
| 00:29:14 | He did not get tagged and he's
free to sign with any team.
|
| 00:29:19 | You can hear rumbles that the
dolphins will be interested and
it won't surprise me if the
guaranteed money comes in
around $30 million.
|
| 00:29:33 | >> The nfl draft is less than
two months away.
|
| 00:29:36 | Will we be surprised with the
number one pick?
|
| 00:29:39 | >> It could be the case.
|
| 00:29:40 | Everybody is talking about
ndamukong suh as the potential
number one pick but even the
oklahoma defensive tackle.
|
| 00:29:49 | But at some point it's always
turning to the quarterback.
|
| 00:29:53 | It wouldn't surprise anybody if
jimmy clausen and sam bradford
got some consideration.
|
| 00:30:00 | But it will not surprise me if
oklahoma quarterback sam
bradford, who might have been
the number one pick last year
becomes the number one overall
louis rams this
year.
|
| 00:30:12 | >> Which restricted free agent
wide receiver is most likely to
leave?
|
| 00:30:16 | >> Brandon marshall.
|
| 00:30:18 | As immense a talent as he is,
the broncos will look to deal
him if they can get the right
price back.
|
| 00:30:26 | You have to figure that any
team that needs a wide receiver
in the free agent market would
have to look at somebody like
brandon marshall.
|
| 00:30:34 | He's huge, talented and gifted
and for the right price for the
broncos, he's available.

eastern with nascar countdown.
|
| 00:36:15 | We ask rusty wallace is this a
reality check for danica?
|
| 00:36:18 | >> I think the biggest thing
that danica has learned about
these race cars are how hard
they are to drive and how much
difference there is in practice
and the real race.
|
| 00:36:32 | When you put 43 cars out there
at the same time those cars
definitely handle differently
and I don't think she was ready
for that.

|
| 00:37:28 | Dick vitale will call that
game.
|
| 00:37:30 | He joins us now.
|
| 00:37:32 | South carolina beat them in
columbia last month.
|
| 00:37:35 | How much will calipari and the
wildcats will thinking about
that?
|
| 00:37:39 | >> This place is going to be
fired up.
|
| 00:37:41 | They beat them not only in the
last game they played in south
carolina, but since hornsby has
been the coach, he's won three
in a row.
|
| 00:37:54 | A game winner by mr. downey.
|
| 00:37:57 | He was sensational in the
matchup in the first one.
|
| 00:38:01 | Had 30 points, put on a show.
|
| 00:38:03 | They also did a phenomenal job
rebounding.
|
| 00:38:06 | Kentucky is the number one
rebounding team in the nation
yet they were outrebounded by
south carolina, but something
tells me we're going to see a
fired up kentucky team trying
to get a little revenge.
|
| 00:38:19 | >> Other college hoop news, put
-- purdue's robbie hummel is
out for the season.
|
| 00:38:25 | What does this do for the
boilermaker's shot as a number
one seed?
|
| 00:38:30 | >> I think if they win they'll
still get a number one seed but
I think the impact is going to
be big and I think it will
affect them in that category
because they'll probably lose
some games they wouldn't
normally lose.
|
| 00:38:46 | Robbie hummel was mr.
|
| 00:38:48 | Versatility.
|
| 00:38:48 | The other day I gave my final
four, syracuse, kansas kentucky
and purdue.
|
| 00:38:58 | I think the motivation of
playing in indianapolis, their
defensive effort and the
ability of hummel would get
them over.
|
| 00:39:07 | But now I suddenly have to move
my final four.
|
| 00:39:11 | Will I be kansas state?
|
| 00:39:13 | I like them but I'm going with
the dukies, baby.
|
| 00:39:16 | I like duke.
|
| 00:39:17 | I like the big three and the
the develop of zhoo beck.
|
| 00:39:23 | My final four, kentucky,
kansas, syracuse and the duke
blue devils.
|
| 00:39:30 | >> If you're the yankees, do
you let derek jeter go into the
last year of his contract?
|
| 00:39:37 | >> I wouldn't but I don't have
to worry about that.
|
| 00:39:41 | Derek jeter, if I were writing
the correct, I'd give him a
lifetime contract.
|
| 00:39:46 | After he's done playing keep
him in the organization as an
straitor.
|
| 00:39:51 | He's a great role model and
represents the yankees with
total class.
|
| 00:39:58 | I don't think we've seen a
player in a sport represent
their team any better than
derek jeter.
|
| 00:40:04 | "
I'd sail derek, whatever any
other yankee is making we're
going to give you that too,
plus, because you represented
us a winner and he produces
every year.
|
| 00:40:18 | I'd give him a five-year deal
to play and then a lifetime
after that to be part of the
yankee family.
|
| 00:40:27 | Hey, it's not my money.
|
| 00:40:28 | >> Way to throw it around,
dick.
|
| 00:40:31 | Money well spent.
|
| 00:40:33 | Kentucky-south carolina, espn2,

wall and the wildcats.

nature, one of the
definitionings of the word
"
the evolution in sports has
made the word a compliment.
|
| 00:41:04 | That may not be enough for five
nfl prospects getting ready for
the draft.
|
| 00:41:08 | Tom friend with the story of a
workout that turned into a
daily show in west lake
village, california.
|
| 00:41:15 | >> My purple haze, I'm right
there.
|
| 00:41:19 | is the fastest guy out of
all of us.
|
| 00:41:22 | >> Touchdown!
|

fastest always.

lumber.

| 00:41:31 | >> The world's fastest man at
one point.
|
| 00:41:35 | He's blazing you like fast.
|
| 00:41:37 | [Laughter]
>> since the first week of
january, quarterback jimmy
clausen of notre dame, running
spiller of clemson,
illinois wide receiver bend and
taylor mays and griffin of
have shared the same
touchdown, the same weight room
and the same philosophy -- do
anything to get drafted in the
first round.
|
| 00:42:05 | They call themselves nothing
but freaks.
|
| 00:42:08 | >> You're not going to find
that anywhere else.
|
| 00:42:12 | Five potential first-round guys
pushing each other, making each
other better.
|
| 00:42:16 | That's considered a freak.
|
| 00:42:17 | >> We want to get out there,
get after it and do the
unthinkable.
|
| 00:42:23 | >> A freak is somebody that is
10,000 bad people all in one.
|
| 00:42:29 | >> Super-- superfreaks is what
we should have on our shirts.
|
| 00:42:33 | >> Some of them have become
acquainted on saturdays in the
fall.
|
| 00:42:38 | >> I got a 15-yard penalty but
it was in the moment.
|
| 00:42:43 | It was by boy jimmy so I had to
do something special for him.
|
| 00:42:47 | >> He brings it every time he
can.
|
| 00:42:49 | But that's the nature of

|
| 00:42:53 | >> With clausen rehabbing from
toe surgery just a few feet
and
notre dame are one team.
|
| 00:43:03 | >> That's how much he loves
football.
|
| 00:43:06 | That's how have -- how much
he's not willing to sit around.
|
| 00:43:09 | >> We're kind of like a little
family right now.
|
| 00:43:13 | It's touch for me not to be out
there with those guys working
with them.
|
| 00:43:19 | >> Let's go!
|
| 00:43:21 | >> Workouts are extreme.
|
| 00:43:24 | Pushups have taken on new
meaning.
|
| 00:43:27 | >> It makes you feel like a
monster, like you're an
unstoppable force.
|
| 00:43:32 | >> That's freakish stuff.
|
| 00:43:34 | >> Even chargers' cornerback
antonio cromartie a graduate of
the freaks' workout to become a
pro bowler, has returned to
show the five what's possible.
|
| 00:43:46 | >> It's proving people wrong
every step of the way.
|
| 00:43:49 | >> Part of being a freak is
loving the game of football and
it's a fierce relentless
cutthroat attitude you have to
have.
|
| 00:43:57 | >> Freakish times, freakish
weights.
|
| 00:44:01 | Freakish everything we do.
|
| 00:44:04 | We're not going to slack.
|
| 00:44:05 | It's going to pay off in the
end.
|
| 00:44:07 | >> Mel kiper's latest mock
draft he has clausen going
number four overall to
washington.
|
| 00:44:17 | Spiller 13th to the 49ers.
|
| 00:44:21 | Four of the five work out at
the combine this weekend and
clausen the only one who won't
take part.
|
| 00:44:28 | >> Five second left in the
game.
|
| 00:44:34 | Do you believe from miracles?
|
| 00:44:36 | Yes!
|
| 00:44:36 | >> Two wins from another gold
medal.
|
| 00:44:39 | One-on-one with the man who may

will be partying like it's 19

else does.

| 00:44:53 | Every time I play golf I'm very
bad.

manager might be disappointed
with the tameness of his posts,
which he says will range from
barbecues with his kids to his
poor golf game.
|
| 00:50:57 | >> Why not?
|
| 00:50:58 | I have a life after this.
|
| 00:51:01 | I have a few fans out there.
|
| 00:51:03 | It's kind of funny because a

|
| 00:52:12 | "
I'm mar marcellus wiley and
that's wendi nix.
|
| 00:52:21 | >> Yesterday we were delighted
to find out that ozzie guillen
now has a twitter account.
|
| 00:52:26 | He has been known to speak his
mind and that unpredictability
may have the white sox suits a
little nervous.
|
| 00:52:33 | But is he even the most
unpredictable ozzie?
|
| 00:52:37 | How about ozzie osborne, the
establish rocker.
|
| 00:52:40 | Had his own reality show.
|
| 00:52:43 | We asked sportsnation who is
the more unpredictable ozzie?
|
| 00:52:48 | >> I'm going to say ozzie
osborne because you said he ate
the head off a bat.
|
| 00:52:55 | Not the bat that guillen is
used to sighing, I'm talking
about a battle adams family
style.
|
| 00:53:03 | And this is a guy ozzie who
needs a twitter account because
you really can't understand
what he says.
|
| 00:53:12 | I'm going with ozzie osborne.
|
| 00:53:14 | >> When you bite the head off a
battle you're not
unpredictable, you're just
crazy.
|
| 00:53:21 | With guillen at least the jury
is still out.
|
| 00:53:24 | I'm going to say he's more
unpredictable.
|
| 00:53:28 | We asked sportsnation.
|
| 00:53:31 | You said
>> osborne.
|
| 00:53:32 | >> I say guillen.
|
| 00:53:34 | Sportsnation said --
oh.
|
| 00:53:36 | See.

it, you're a pretty

catch on in europe, not in the
states.
|
| 00:54:05 | It takes three guys to push a

|
| 00:54:19 | >> Well, 30 years ago yesterday
facing finland with a
gold medal on the line at the
1980 olympics, just two days
after the miracle on ice.
|
| 00:54:29 | The americans fell behind 2-1
but scored three unanswered
goals in the third period to
win 4-2, preventing finland
from winning a medal.
|
| 00:54:39 | Now, ryan miller, team u.s.a.
|
| 00:54:41 | Getting ready to face finland
tomorrow.
|
| 00:54:45 | He's been in the nhl for seven
seasons, all with the saab
recess, was an all-star in 2007
and is third this season at
goals against.
|
| 00:54:56 | He twice won player of the year
at michigan state and left
there as the ncaa all-time
leader in shutouts.
|
| 00:55:03 | His olympic resume, even
better.
|
| 00:55:06 | He's only given up five goals
in four games at vancouver.
|
| 00:55:11 | And only two at full strength.
|
| 00:55:14 | Ryan how would you describe the
last two weeks for you on this
team?
|
| 00:55:18 | >> It's been a little bit of a
whirl wind.
|
| 00:55:23 | You come together after 3/4 of
an nhl season and get thrown
into the biggest tournament of
the world.
|
| 00:55:30 | I think everybody -- everyone's
reacted really well.
|
| 00:55:34 | >> Heading into the olympics,
all the talk surrounded talent
on canada and russia's rosters.
|
| 00:55:40 | What are the inattentionables
that the u.s. team possesses?
|
| 00:55:44 | >> I think we have great
talent.
|
| 00:55:46 | We also have some guys with
some size, guys playing with
some grit.
|
| 00:55:52 | Callahan has been doing a great
job.
|
| 00:55:54 | We look and play like a team.
|
| 00:00:01 | Effectively done.
|
| 00:00:02 | >> It was a humongous gorilla
that came off my back.
|
| 00:00:06 | >> A-rod enjoying this spring
more than most.
|
| 00:00:09 | Ozzie responding to criticism
he's overexposed.
|
| 00:00:11 | And from the nfl, a possible
surprise as number one.
|
| 00:00:16 | And the next chris johnson.
|
| 00:00:19 | "Sportscenter," right now!
|
| 00:00:21 | >> It's not about baseball.
|
| 00:00:24 | It's not about white sox.
|
| 00:00:28 | It's about myself.
|
| 00:00:31 | Captioned by the national
captioning institute
org--
>>> how's it?
|
| 00:00:41 | Welcome to "sportscenter" from
los angeles.
|
| 00:00:43 | Alongside stan verrett, I'm
neil everett.
|
| 00:00:46 | The james gang has been the
gang that can't shoot straight
when they're in boston.
|
| 00:00:51 | >> The last nine trips to
boston for cleveland including
the playoffs, cavaliers had
exactly zero wins, and then to
make matters worse, the celtics
also had the only meeting
between the two in opening
night in cleveland.
|
| 00:01:03 | The cavaliers are motivated and
the celtics short-handed.
|
| 00:01:06 | Paul pierce is out of this game
with a sore thumb.
|
| 00:01:09 | Rajon rondo doing his thing
early.
|
| 00:01:11 | A little floater.
|
| 00:01:13 | He pretty much trademarked that
shot.
|
| 00:01:15 | Check out the lay-up here, the
finish here.
|
| 00:01:18 | Wrong hand but he gets it to go
and then rondo with the bounce
pass to kendrick perkins for
the dunk he scored or assisted
with the first 21 points of the
game.
|
| 00:01:27 | He had 19 points and 11 assists
for the game.
|
| 00:01:30 | Anderson varejao, the alley-oop
for lebron.
|
| 00:01:32 | That's a good idea.
|
| 00:01:33 | 10 In the first for lebron.
|
| 00:01:35 | Cavs losing by 10.
|
| 00:01:37 | The celtics held them to 84 a
game in the nine-game skid.
|
| 00:01:41 | Shaquille o'neal, the ball
swatted out of his hands by
glen davis.
|
| 00:01:44 | You see davis come down with a
lot of force on shaq's right
thumb.
|
| 00:01:47 | Shaq would stay in the game at
that point.
|
| 00:01:49 | But the next cavaliers
possession, davis guarding shaq
and going right for the thumb.
|
| 00:01:53 | He's going after it.
|
| 00:01:54 | Shaq would leave the game and
go to the locker room.
|
| 00:01:56 | They're calling it a right
thumb sprain for right now.
|
| 00:01:59 | Remember, lebron said he wants
zydrunas ilgauskas back.
|
| 00:02:02 | They may have to get him now.
|
| 00:02:04 | But then when lebron is doing
things like that, doesn't
matter who's playing.
|
| 00:02:09 | 21 Points in the first half.
|
| 00:02:12 | Team trailed by eight in the
second.
|
| 00:02:15 | He drives.
|
| 00:02:16 | Bucket and the foul in the
third quarter.
|
| 00:02:20 | Antawn jamison had nine points,
4-9 shooting for him.
|
| 00:02:23 | Still trying to find his way
including his offense.
|
| 00:02:26 | Lebron up top to j.j. hickson.
|
| 00:02:28 | The cavaliers didn't want to
give him up in the trades near
deadline.
|
| 00:02:32 | Entering the fourth, mo
williams took over.
|
| 00:02:34 | Three-ball from the corner.
|
| 00:02:36 | Bang, bang, bang.
|
| 00:02:37 | Then james finally goes to the
other corner.
|
| 00:02:40 | He has all day to shoot and
knocked that one down.
|
| 00:02:42 | And then ray allen, gotcha.
|
| 00:02:45 | And then williams again.
|
| 00:02:46 | 14 Points in the fourth
quarter.
|
| 00:02:48 | He finished with 19 for the
game pft cavaliers up by 10 and
feeling it.
|
| 00:02:51 | Five minutes to play, cleveland
putting it away.
|
| 00:02:55 | Williams, james.
|
| 00:02:56 | Cleveland with a 35-14 scoring
edge in the fourth quarter.
|
| 00:03:00 | Doc rivers would call that
deflating.
|
| 00:03:03 | 36 For james.
|
| 00:03:04 | Cavaliers win by 20 and celtics
shoot 3-21 in the fourth.
|
| 00:03:07 | >> You can't do it by just one
guy.
|
| 00:03:10 | Lebron can't do it by himself.
|
| 00:03:11 | And the guy all the way down to
the fifth team guy can't do it
by himself.
|
| 00:03:15 | We have to understand it's a
team concept and need everybody
and everybody needs to stay
ready.
|
| 00:03:20 | >> For us to get what we want
we go through them and for them
to get what they want have to
go through us and then orlando
is in there and everybody else
but that's the fact and
something is going to give at
some point.
|
| 00:03:33 | >> We just got to play better.
|
| 00:03:36 | We can't just play one half of
basketball and then come out
and play like that.
|
| 00:03:40 | >> Mike brown said his team was
searching for answers
defensively.
|
| 00:03:44 | They may have found them in the
fourth quarter.
|
| 00:03:46 | They simply demolished boston
in the fourth and outscored the
celtics by 21.
|
| 00:03:50 | Boston missed 18-21 shots
including all four
three-pointers.
|
| 00:03:55 | Mo williams, 14 points again in
the fourth quarter.
|
| 00:03:56 | That matched the entire celtics
team.
|
| 00:04:00 | >>> Even though it was a bad
loss by the boston celtics
against the cleveland
es, they're still a
contender in the eastern
conference, coming in the
season the top three teams
still stand as pat.
|
| 00:04:11 | The orlando magic, cleveland
cavaliers, and boston celtics.
|
| 00:04:14 | Add in there robinson,
hopefully they'll get paul
pierce back and he's playing
healthy.
|
| 00:04:18 | The key will be kevin garnett,
can he play at a high level on
both end of the floor and take
advantage of mismatches on the
offensive end, contest and be a
defender on the other end will
be the key for the c's.
|
| 00:04:30 | >>> Rajon rondo and lebron
james combined for 20 assists.
|
| 00:04:34 | Since january 27, rondo and
james are one and two in the
nba in assists.
|
| 00:04:39 | Of course rondo is a poilingd.
|
| 00:04:41 | -- Is a point guard.
|
| 00:04:42 | Lebron has a body of a power
forward and passes like a point
forward so maybe he's a power
point forward.
|
| 00:04:47 | >> Did you just make that up?
|
| 00:04:49 | >> I did.
|
| 00:04:52 | >>> He found a little crease
and he scored.
|
| 00:04:55 | There's a little glimpse of
what he can do.
|
| 00:04:57 | >> His ability to cross you
over and scramble you up.
|
| 00:05:02 | >> Downey down the lane.
|
| 00:05:04 | >> This place a bedlam.
|
| 00:05:05 | >> Wall drives by his man.
|
| 00:05:07 | >> Pull-up three.
|
| 00:05:10 | >> Oh, he has another one.
|
| 00:05:12 | Let the upset begin!
|
| 00:05:17 | >>> That was at south carolina
and that was kentucky's only
loss on the season, and revenge
is a dish best served with cold
cuts.
|
| 00:05:26 | Devan downey, 30 in the win
last month, shooting 30% from
the field in the last five
games.
|
| 00:05:31 | South carolina, 1-4.
|
| 00:05:32 | That was magic johnson and he
is a dude.
|
| 00:05:35 | John wall, demarcus cousins,
" "top play" nominee if
you're new to the program.
|
| 00:05:41 | How will you defend devan
downey, coach cal?
|
| 00:05:44 | I'm going to get four guys on
him right there.
|
| 00:05:46 | >> Usually works.
|
| 00:05:47 | >> When he passes out, I'm
going to hope that cat can't
hold on to it and my guy can do
spectacular things.
|
| 00:05:54 | He's good.
|
| 00:05:55 | Downey drives there.
|
| 00:05:58 | Darius miller.
|
| 00:05:59 | Time to get slapped.
|
| 00:06:01 | And john wall, take care of
sammy.
|
| 00:06:03 | Kentucky up 14.
|
| 00:06:04 | Downey is going to hit a three

|

where this boilermaker team is
with three regular season games
left without robbie hummel and
then the big ten tournament.
|
| 00:12:32 | That's when they can draw an
assessment of purdue.
|
| 00:12:35 | Are they still worthy of a
number one seed because that's
where they're pretty close to
at this .
|
| 00:12:40 | If they are and can win the big
ten regular season and win the
big ten conference tournament,
then even without robbie hummel
they could be a number one
seed.
|
| 00:12:50 | If they fall, kind of like in
2000 when kenyon martin broke
his leg for cincinnati before
they were to be a number one
seed they could drop down a

assign players franchise tags
came and went.
|
| 00:14:55 | So what's the biggest deadline
headline?
|
| 00:14:57 | >> The headline is that the
pittsburgh steelers were
incredibly active on thursday.
|
| 00:15:02 | Not only did they sign their
defensive tackle casey hampon
to a three-year, $20 million
deal with $11 million in
guaranteed money but put the
franchise tag on jeff reed and
allowed willie parker to test
the free agent market.
|
| 00:15:20 | So a busy day in pittsburgh.
|
| 00:15:22 | >> You're at the nfl combine in
indy.
|
| 00:15:24 | Which player has the most to
gain in these workouts this
weekend?
|
| 00:15:28 | spiller, the clemson
running back is a track star
and if he can come out of the
blocks fast he would solidify
his position as the number one
running back in the draft and
even move up in the draft.
|
| 00:15:38 | He's very fast.
|
| 00:15:40 | We've seen what a fast time he
can do, chris johnson, the
former college standout once
2 440 and elevated him
from the first or second round
spiller
can have similar type of
success this weekend.
|
| 00:15:54 | >> Which player has the most to
lose in indy?
|
| 00:15:57 | >> Alabama nose tackle terrence
cody, unquestionably, he
weighed in at the senior bowl
at 370 pounds.
|
| 00:16:04 | You remember last year, alabama
offensive tackle andre smith
hurt his stock some, raised
some questions.
|
| 00:16:11 | Terrence cody is trying to get
his weight down close to 350
and is supposedly around 355.
|
| 00:16:16 | If he can come in around 350 i
think teams will view him once
again as a first-round pick.

|
| 00:17:10 | >> Not even two weeks ago the
american hockey team was an
afterthought in this tournament

to this point I think everybody
team realizes you're in the
semis for a reason so it was
nice to fly under the radar for
as long as we can but there
aren't any secrets anymore.
|
| 00:17:48 | >> There's another level in the
tank which is scary because of
where we are right now.

don't know if we played our
best game yet.
|
| 00:17:55 | >> Next up is finland, a team
that plays an up and down nhl
style the americans feel they
match up well against.
|
| 00:18:02 | Finland's goalie is miika
kiprusoff who the americans
know well from the calgary
flames.
|
| 00:18:08 | >> I know playing him in the
playoffs last year, he doesn't
really like traffic either.
|
| 00:18:12 | What goalie does?
|
| 00:18:13 | But you get in front of him,
kind of get him flustered a bit
and throws him off his game.
|
| 00:18:18 | >> As great as american goalie
ryan miller has been in the
olympics, kiprusoff has been
better.
|
| 00:18:25 | Kiprusoff has the tournament's
best save percentage.
|
| 00:18:28 | Miller is number two.
