Our page is the fault line and -- the patriot linebacker deals Thomas as minicamp and today and a big oh weekend charity event on Sunday forgive us. -- good morning how you doin' today. You know you're. A group -- you rooting for the lakers -- the magic and actually it's over them the lakers have already won the series but he.
Yeah -- our orders awarded Orlando to weird cause you know. There are different team in small market. And is to right our. You know Turkoglu. Where houses Vista which you gases they have -- words I can't understand why aren't. Rafer Alston wasn't even in the game he was playing great the first. And deeply Jameer Nelson and -- through a hole for a third or fourth quarter. I could understand why would they need to point.
Also didn't play the last eighteen minutes of the game -- to sat there and -- when to -- the -- went and played since February is in there and cried -- I'm gonna make him bad defensive decisions. -- I'm guessing you it'll let you don't let Fisher hit that shot off of your depending on the perimeter.
I think it would sort of -- in -- the bohemian. At the -- far. Because now is you know 78 seconds before oh you get to you oh and you just you you to make it harder for building. Two to -- that you know maybe miss went cold and there's where the outfit though that the very.
I guess it'd obvious Bill Belichick had a better plan than standing -- that was embarrassing. At eleven seconds. To -- not enough -- Idealist but they were. Back on their heels and deepens giving them the three point shot whenever three point late.
I mean it should -- could understand it I didn't understand what it -- because in the game. I don't know you know toward our game it is put another. Big guy that was Atlantic in again.
you're right -- Rafer -- if nothing -- exhibit -- he could and a foul somebody and -- strikes me as I watched that game last night and lots of other games as well and and maybe it's maybe it's our mistake that we give professional athletes what the sport maybe baseball football hockey a certainly basketball last night. All the credit in the world or knowing understanding and executing fundamentals because we its -- Watching these great athlete perform out there all if they admitted to the pros and it's -- have at least the fundamentals down. But I guess that's what training camp is all about working on the little things stuff that you probably -- when when you're playing pop Warner a few years ago a number of years ago.
I mean you really do. But I don't think that fundamental but it such -- taking the potential that detail. Cook like how many times have colon breast pump -- And they have jobs for yup he's I know Vick and his widow Rick writes they doubt -- they -- Make -- you if you make it okay great -- And -- aren't giving them these points that is hips and get into -- river is so you don't for the moment of it you know. It is bad basketball. If it had observed that this bill would. I don't you're right I know it's frustrating it's likely you know we don't like the sport of litigating. In. Some most of the due to a -- right just just could understand it refereed very -- consistent. You know they have a term. -- Colby gets a one off the ground debate debris don't have to borrow.
What -- when when JO RJJ -- the exact same thing Kobe does. And they don't call it and -- Portugal and Kobe gets that call like three times a game in the -- said. You gotta be consistent Redick and always not Kobe but he did the same move made this move Kobe makes the --
that that invests and that's what makes you you know that's what big players played differently because the front of mobile chemical that the -- located jumps. -- in the aggregate judgment might get a file and that's effort to limit the ball well now look like a a lot of clouds just sort of Volvo but the or you know help when it I think bit of magic got motivated too much into. Building out you know most of it is clear basketball don't look for the rest of bell tomorrow a lot of time situations. -- they just the played basketball. And so you know what you give it to bed. You're playing for help. Versus playing the weekend. And you know Arctic power -- said you know -- you get the ball. Is somebody took command that is -- feet tall. They went global make a powerful it is do you every time it took the ball more than two times district -- cost orgasm coming. Just do it he didn't know what -- move as a jump hook reverse or don't know what to move that's a big red carpet belt between.
Seven -- room proposed that this time around and tells the subject of a fundamentals and attention to detail I'm wondering if from a football standpoint. What is accomplished -- June minicamp in particular for veterans like yourself that will help you in September October November December and hopefully in February.
I think. Basically you know what work. At least let you know. Didn't have football shaped -- you know -- you -- help says -- help at all but arm part of the calls no calls on our new teammates. Smoke is right that the people there on the field chart develops a candle. Chemistry communication. That's all it really is about in -- is Pollack of the fiscal period or middle thing. So when you can start ornamental aspect but McCain without him or about the physical aspect of carrying a is there. -- To -- I think Derek. Because -- resort in the go to aspect as well over the fundamentals markets that there are really hairs. -- that's basically what you do.
But Tom Brady clearly was the most notable blowing the patriot who got hurt last year didn't play and everybody wanted to -- back at this minicamp but -- certainly qualify that as well playing in nine games last year with a broken arm does it feel different coming back when you -- essentially a half the season the frustration of being on the sideline not being able to help her teammates and now trying to get back into the rhythm of -- like in the National Football --
There's been a different you know you -- their ages ago that there are there are better with. Her which a lot of people get last year. You know -- if you vote in really. You know about this is coming back working hard every day to come back in effect on the field. To come back in in compete in Tibet -- went gained.
We know we know now you wrote for the magically we I'm just curious. I'm guessing you rooting for Vince Wilfork want to know how hard how hard how much do you want Vince Wilfork to get his way at the negotiating table.
I don't really you know. -- there is. It nearly two years just you know you're very deftly itself well you know. Thank -- ago. I hope everybody is it is. You know. -- it's time for you know -- right now -- you know. Destitute in you know there's people in. The people upstairs -- rested -- aspect of it and you know. -- just say is that -- in their optimal forests it's a tough situation you know and in our. I hope he goes you know in in -- here where it's safe to. I can't really Europe but you know.
and players like Q veterans guys who you know pay attention know that sixty year of a six year rookie contract that's the time. When a player really is -- allowed. To speak out and take -- stand.
You you can say that. And you know they were actually you know may have but legitimate gripe or anything about it bird that sent. Don't matter what you say. What is it going to accomplish is back onto anything Mario. Point two newspaper. To the news because nobody's gonna. There's no way possible. Just say it saying well. He has somebody else appears somewhere else when there's an agent which is afraid and when is someone else the -- the best don't think -- mean is. Whoever it is that is its name is you know. What -- starting to play you play which and the -- You can and will betrayed by moving it to keep us from Mario. It is were routinely with it'd -- about somebody else if you play that you play well some -- pay. Now they that it seemed that you -- It may be somewhat -- so you know. You don't need 32 teams destroy -- state in the one Seymour epic. So. That exist you know -- time -- football you know it. The great thing particularly yourself in January forever it would over the streets market. You -- talk about all you want because that's -- stern talk about it you know do you use it kip you're in the borders and testing it you know you can do what you want to do. And I don't know what their situation is that a just in general. If you play it. You play you'll get to play.
On this is that. General thing where it is definitely there's definitely a hard thing to do go honestly coached I mean just on what your griping. Back it was back in the future anywhere separately each state.
Richard Seymour was very emphatic instantly you know he was really pulling for -- opened -- gets what he deserves but that and normally guys aren't quite as. I'm going when it comes to support guys -- contract problem but one last thing.
about it but you know is not about support it it's been. There's no there's no there about a wants me to play everybody knows -- initiative today. That's not that's not a question any. Question they have right now is. What can you do in our state together and -- which is not -- there's not a -- of data can dictate. There's nothing you can pretty heated debate don't they didn't get paid is people taxpayers. Could right now there's definite you have to do. So you know I mean I don't outrageous you know. Our question of anything goes you know should do is subject to I mean everybody supports this everything else right now -- if -- about football. And you know we all hope this is what he deserves. And in but right now it's about between. You know it is as -- as -- of the season as typical. -- it's a retrofit. There's a great player. Very clear and he we'll get pretty.
Do you think you. Your former defensive coordinator Rex Ryan do you think he will succeed in getting under bill Belichick's -- because he sure seems to be tried to --
