Are the Los Angeles Clippers the Best Team in the NBA?! The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

We begin the hour talking about the recent We Are The World documentary that came out before Jeremy helps get us ready for the second half of the NBA season with an NBA top 5. Then we talk about Rob Manfred and how he has run the MLB before reacting to a honest and emotional quote from Shaq to Jason Kelce.

Im happy the crew is back home & doing their thing. All things age & evolve, yet this 3 hrs of half-serious & wholly enjoyable time in my day has been a constant pleasure for 15 years. They're funny as hell, smart, & cover fast food nuances like 60 Minutes.

[@adelhardtlyl]

The Prince and Michael Jackson rivalry was a friendly one. They had massive respect for eachother.

[@sixthorder]

Can we take a moment to realize Dan brought a commissioner on the show to complain about the marlins being bad?

[@dorothygale1104]

Dan didn’t complain to the Commissioner of Baseball; Dan verbally brutalized Rob Manfred in a way that no commissioner of any sport has ever been brutalized. Dan made Manfred his bitch in that interview.

[@soze_vanhouten]

The indecency and shamelessness of humanity is Lucy holding a football and Dan is Charlie Brown stunned each time its yanked away from him as he charges dome-first with confidence ready to kick through the goalposts of justice. Doesn't make it acceptable, but it shouldnt be so shocking at this point in the loooong history of "horrors" unleashed upon humanity by humanity in the name of greed and self-interest

[@eastsidereviews727]

Bro, the star power on We Are the World is insane! Like just on solos you have MJ, Lionel Richie, Bruce Springsteen, Tina Turner, Diana Ross, Stevie Wonder, Willie Nelson, like these are just some of the people on solos! Also the coke budget had to be wild high! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/We_Are_the_World

[@andrewk1499]

No offese but Dan must have only read a headline on the PSU story. He said they want "put Paterno's name back on the stadium". It never was attached to the stadium. And the reported "propsal" from a few BoT members was to name the field. Not the stadium, admitedlly a small detail, but Dan repeated the idea of "renaming of the stadium" 6 times which is just not accurate. The way he covered this story didnt focus enough on the breaching of adherence to the rules of transparent board of trustees meetings. Instead Dan painted with a pretty broad brush and made it seem like the whole PSU community would be for this. Which is not the case. I get you can't be reading every detail right on a daily show, but it would be nice if there was a way to issue corrections via a pinned comment or something

The Paterno thing is happening the same way all those Catholic priests happened. It all disappers for a while, and then they bring them back after everyone forgets.

[@Reese13]

Happy Greg Cote Tuesday Y'all!😊

[@bsnowden528]

This video is definitely a rehashing of a previous video on KZbin. I watched it a few months ago. To prove I’m right, the KZbin version contains about five minutes of Ray Charles doing the most amazing adlib I’ve ever seen. He asks Quincy what does he want then tells him to move out of the way lol. Beside that and the scenes from the AMA’s it’s the exact same thing.

[@bsnowden528]

The Ray Charles scene is at the very end

[@tedmich]

31:47 LOL the Shaq mea culpa !! While on one level (the intended level) this can be seen as a sad admission thats NOT its primary goal. Much like Shannon Sharps saying" I have no women to share my endless workouts, money and partying with" what it really is is hoisting the single guy "free to freak" flag! Shaq tried to do BOTH the family and the single guy sex addict thing and failed, at least Shannon didnt do that. Also to quote former Shaq sex partner Holly Robinson Peete (on Loveline) "Shaq aint no big thing..."

[@Lord_Clarke]

I'm a super baseball casual so I only pay attention vaguely to the redsox but I do recall Jeter just randomly giving up his ownership stake of the Marlins...what exactly is Dan talking about though when he says Manfred screwed over the Marlins?

[@andrewscherf6456]

Chris, I also don’t know personally, but IVE HEARD ozium works fantastic on cannabis.

[@keligarrett63]

It's on the record. Shaq walked out on his family.

[@Panhead49EL]

If you like rock/metal, check out We're Stars by Hear-n-Aid. Stunning collection of that era's singers and shredders.

[@themediumprofessor]

Did Mike mean Live Aid? lol

[@kreqq8567]

As a penn state fan it’s embarrassing that they are floating the idea of honoring him to this extent. To be fair the people who proposed these include Paternos kid

[@johndaly1706]

how can’t Dan pronounce Jokic name still?

[@unlaced7031]

36:27 Shaq has always been open about his short comings in his past relationship. This isn’t nothing new

[@soysergent]

Women don’t find vulnerability in a man attractive was Shaq’s point, and they’ll often throw it back in your face out of anger later on if you are. Traditionally masculine men or those who were raised by them understand the concept. You can’t be her rock blubbering like a damn 5 year old.

[@rynob356]

I need a segment where Jeremy gives his top five and then dan and the shipping container ruin his points one by one.

[@Lakeshow82]

Maybe best team during the regular season but when the playoffs get here nope. They were already a franchise that folded under pressure and they added James Harden another playoff choke artist.

[@shindean]

I will always find the CP3 era of the clippers more of a threat. They only had one guy disappear in the playoffs, these clippers will beat that record.

[@RaiderJamesLee]

The lakers will be a play in team. lol. Won’t get a chance to choke.

Billionaires may not be book smart, but they are smart. They know how to use the system for themselves. It can be shitty and smart at the same time. This idea that just because you don't have some high measure of intelligence or aren't articulate means you aren't smart has got to stop.

[@LaCheeserie]

True different forms of intelligence. And also, can be withy and not smart at all. Inherited. Part of a crew and stumbles into it. Gambling. Lottery.

[@kevinlakeman5043]

"We Are the World" as a song kinda sucks. Weak, cliche lyrics. "Do They Know It's Christmas" was much better, and was done for purely humanitarian reasons. The American thing just seemed like a huge money grab initiated by uber-commercial cheese machines Wacko Jacko and Ritchie w/ Jones getting his share, too.

[@Chuuk2Hawaii]

I ask from a place of ignorance. What did Joe Paterno do? Did he protect Sandusky knowing what Sandusky was doing? Paterno is an icon for that university and town it would take a lot to tarnish his name with the fanbase.

[@BlessedAreTheCheesemakers]

he protected a monster and is an accessory to numerous felonies.

[@chrispurcell8892]

He got the word about Sandusky raping the kid in the shower, and didn't say anything to anyone because he, quote "didn't want to ruin anyone's weekend." There's your icon.

[@Chuuk2Hawaii]

@chrispurcell8892 My icon? I am from Hawaii dude. I'm speaking about the idolatry of icons to fans and the community. It takes A LOT to tarnish an icon, that's why millions still listen to Michael Jackson today. It makes a lot of sense to me because people don't want their idols mortalized. That's all.

[@Chuuk2Hawaii]

@BlessedAreTheCheesemakers Right what I'm saying is when you are part of the Penn St community you probably don't believe it. This is how fans behave with their icons especially when sports is a big component of their personal and collective identity.
