Have financial capital financial USA.com. This is the Adam gold show there's a big picture conversation going on about the not only the demise of the Golden State Warriors this year, but is it over for this group. Should they consider moving on from fill-in the blank that's being discussed are right.

I may be happy, you're still in the NBA finals right now. I mean, I get that veil. It looks like they are easily second-best the Boston looks like it.

Never mind that they were a fourth-quarter implosion away from winning game one and they were flat veteran game to Mia Boston won game three name whether clearly the better team, even though Golden State put on a third-quarter run in actually took a lead with a couple minutes ago on the third but Boston was the better team throughout see what happens tonight. I think Boston can win tonight. I think Boston watching and they look like the better team, but I think Golden State when you add James Wiseman back into the mix and you give moody and commingle another year and they have the makings for another really really good run. Let's see if Seth Clay Thompson can get healthier and more consistent mist of curry still great, but we'll talk about that would lead Bassler what we should do now is listen to the wall of sound and totally Tony LaRusso.

You can actually hear his brain growing bigger the wall of sound is a function of this. There's no doubt. So yes, this is just interesting to me yesterday in Chicago whose Yankees website was Dodgers and White Sox and the Dodgers had a 65 lead batting top of the sixth inning Freddie Freeman to just delivered a go-ahead RBI single. He's a left-handed batter off of a left-handed pitcher Trey Turner is the better next and their dispatch until normal it gets to open to and the next pitch was a curveball of the dirt of a slider in the dirt and it gets all the way back to the backstop and Freeman moves up to second.

So first base is open. Tony Larissa came out and with a left-handed batter on deck and right-handed hitter Trey Turner better hitter up said now it's what even though it was one into so this is the way the White Sox broadcast crew acted batting is now on 12 explained that the last time you saw some testing Jason but Eddie and Steve Stone great crew great broadcasting, but Eddie says it and Steve's logos yet. You can tell me there is a fan of the move and I get it.

It's not removed to be a fan of after the game, but I did work out next month. See the hitter that LaRusso ordered Trey Turner walked for ended up hitting an opposite field three run home run and it made the score 95 White Sox ultimately lost to the Dodgers 11 nine pulled so after the game universe is asked about this. You claim the unintentional walk with his or is or some question about whether that was a good move one to suggest lift and pitching with one goal. One or two strikes you as well you know what months is too strict with temperature is earlier question because it wanted to. Turner was a strike left against the left-handers, not something you can avoid if you can have an open base in Muncie heaven.

The item, and that's a better matchup. In some industries it's view this game to no one in topical wanted to salute the fish away. The base was open. It's not the worst move I've ever seen what Tony Larissa did so we don't have to go bananas about. I would say this for small and I'm sure he just misspoke Max Muncie wasn't coming up with a two strike count on. So we had a fresh at that Muncie is a better hitter occur in his career versus look versus left-handed pitchers. The right-handed pitchers so you are actually putting somebody up when he was in a more favorable at bat for him. That much is about one 6165 hitter this year so the answer for Larissa should have been targeted 300 Muncie sit 165. I'm in a go at that matchup Internet to go.

Lefty wanted to because what really he should have done and this is the way better move for Larissa is to we call it an unintentional intentional walk at 12. You've got three chances to get Trey Turner to chase a ball out of the strike zone. Why not take advantage of that. Why not throw no breach changeups away against Trey Turner or slider away or slider up bananas just do something different.

You don't have to do that you don't have to walk it but that's what they chose to do and maybe that would've been the better move or the better question for Tony Larissa. Why not just pitch around.

But Tony's got a be good to be smarter than everybody back to back home runs for Texas in the top of the sixth is 74 E. Carolina Texas batting top of the sixth inning in Greenville I we haven't heard this yet. So let's do this.

Tom Brady, who most people know has signed already. 2035 and $40 million annual contract to be NBC's fear not boxes future lead NFL analyst was talking about opportunities after football. I mean this again. I have a lot of conversations a lot of people as it had for the last three or four years in my career about your different opportunities. Random playing football so I kinda made a decision of what I like to do an object target to be in the game of football and I think for me the most port thing is where I'm at now and what I hope to be 15. That's been my commitment to this this team and organization.

It's been so much fun for me to come here two years ago spent almost 2 and half years now, and I spent a credible partner football journey is not overly still a lot to accomplish so long life.

Eddie counters a lot of fun things to do ahead.

Looking forward to what's ahead in football but same time. None of us are promised much beyond what we have now in this is the current moment and I'm really excited about going out there to try to compete when churches plus another episode of the match likely did you watch any of the match. Once I did not watch anything of the match while he was asked and part of the context of the questioners answers.

They was the rumor floating around about him possibly joining the front office or back to the ownership group is a minority owner of the Miami Dolphins. Yeah that that rumor came out three months ago yeah but he was asked more about the right has been at OTA's and never really denied no tears.

Honestly, my reading on this.

It was actually supposed to happen. He was supposed to play was due to retire. He was going to go into Miami's front office and then a year from now, he might come back on the field right but then they went and did the whole thing with Brian Florez and Brady was like yeah maybe I want to stay away from that organization that he might end up there but yet so ultimately that was that was probably going to happen this off-season were Brady was going to end up because I think that his preference was to go to Miami two years ago and not to Tampa, I know what the matchup will beat Miami with doing what they did actually you had a losing record in Miami. Tom Brady has a losing record against the Dolphins in Miami. That's, that's absolutely well. I game four is this the warrior's last stand.

Not only this series but for ever next golden studio in Monaco speed to the capital financial advisory group. We are talking retirement coach.

Let's say you have more than $1 million balance in my 401(k) revelations that determine how connect actually come back and bite me because this is the thing that we did we get the Mirage received the Rogers of the desert before you see what's what. Her head was not there when your financial garage is thinking that that total balance in your 401(k) or IRA is yours. We have two people that want to get a hold of the two uncles uncle North Carolina and Uncle Sam both ever get to do some damage to the balance depending on what kind of other income you have loose 40% your belly looking at a million-dollar IRA because we were 6000 you. So how do we get around is what you don't get around the end up in jail. If you try to do that you can do tax planning to minimize the effect of taxation into the future. The tax train is coming out and we need to make sure to minimize the effect of the derailment of a financial accountant for the next 10 people will do it at no cost or obligation.

Figuring it out on the fly became the fifth anniversary of the Carolina listen and because we are constantly prisoners of the moment in sports. It is come to my attention that this is not only the last stand for the Golden State Warriors in this series, but may be forever so let's bring in the league Pass layer fruit back together for the first time a couple weeks. Brandon Wood and Brian Geisinger will give you their particulars in a moment.

They are our NBA analyst Brendan I will I will start with you. Is it over and over. When the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor. John Street's lawsuit is this is like the state Rockland awesome job and I game's long life. 14.

This is the team with more experience, not only will the court at the closing position dear penis, slowly for quarters and that's the price you like completely crap.

I first got in the first 40 yet you know me like I just didn't see that coming. And it was disappointing to see him, so small, turn the ball over so frequently. Not just there's no question Brian Geisinger is back with us after spending some time in the deserts of what you saw art so talk to me about this. Brian tell me, tell me why Golden State has been so pedestrian in two of the three fourth quarters and is it time to may be put dream on green out to pasture. You know it's not time yet. He was one of the best defensive players in the league this season before an injury he made one deep boy over Marcus Martin for an injury.

He's been instrumental in getting back to finals like look sometimes some games you know you'll have right now and that's kind of happening to Raymonde, but I still think what what what he brings to you defensively is this imperative.

And it's like what that entire operation method for hinges on offense Golden State they need is passing they need his plate right creation need handoffs they need to slip stating the struggles with with with Stecker, so it's not time just in time just yet.

Yet a number is going up against one of the best NBA defenses. The last 20 years I know is that I have offensively right now is never been much of a scorer shooter. Since maybe early in his career, but no not the point now where were ready to move dream on green fasting Golden State needs and more now than ever before.

Starting tonight change the conversation not really change the conversation because they got a couple guys who might be able to impact the game and Brian Geisinger and run winter here. I'll start with you here Brian this my read on game three was that we could talk about Jaelyn Brown and Jason Tatum and Marcus Moore each gone for more than 20 to me the difference in the game was Boston was just way better than Golden State at the rim on both ends of the floor offense of rebounding. On one hand, clearly an advantage for the Celtics and then seven block shots. On the other were they just couldn't get anything really around the rim. How does that change no matter what Raymonde does mean state literally doubled Boston that's that's if you do that you have that kind of defense in you that does this Horse Creek free throws to countries like, that's it. So whoever wins the pain like that this really does feel like one of those games where he seems very good dynamic on two sides of the core is just like which of these two teams can push the right buttons at the right moment to get to the pain the most and I think really the ability Marcus Moore to get in there was big and that creates kick outs for Jaelyn Brown, Jason Tatum, how does state win that battle. Brendan great watching how the subjects exported switching and courier little bit percent game files and to gate three. You saw a little bit more the ice a little bit more just smaller and they have got row Tatum smart was just old just like a bully, which comes in Westlake basking a little bit of pain know how much more they could do other than which switch easily and so what they can do is maybe like I was a great decision back. It was during a game where he was.

Hey, why what what was finding open gasket passing weeks I started to like release so good at him taking that step the playmaker as a pastor giving a rightist gosh in pockets of the drought or make it stop immediately makes it really, really difficult for me. I hate to switch a meeting.

I know the best want to do with you know people occurring in that way I know how this treatment will help you get.

You have to give people different is what it is like these got these got to town to walk up court and know exactly what you want to do. Sometimes when I switch because there's not currently doing report like this to me is a good thing about it, but he's limited so you can have Tatum and Brown, and smart. That's what I so in that sort of way. Dream of every man like Russell. You know me like that you have to have an honest and open weird that they just went away again plate and you're making a quality score is not going to let small steel small and slow small and slow necessary response from you so Golden State I I thought Gary Payton would play a bigger role in game three because he played a big role in game two.

I thought that Peyton and you may have talked about this. I thought that Peyton, who surprised me by even being available again to I thought he was part of the part of the turnaround in the second quarter would dream on, and Clay and Kevin Looney all on the bench and he barely plays in game three.

Does Gary Payton is Jonathan coming who give them size and athleticism, maybe even most of these guys have to play a bigger role because it just looks like Boston's been bullying all bigger we kill Golden State before court like just like to and it was just too much so I hate it will definitely do not try to get transition our understanding team like something out of course 6768. Everybody has to rebound guards like they had an urgency in the index.

Also like like they have to be more physically engaged this date as this is the series this is their legacy to come back out hello here is I don't think it's a must win for Golden State. I think they can still win the series.

Because what it comes down to yeah of course they could lose in game five is no doubt about it and actually think the team that wins game for will win game five so I got. I'm sort of like contradicting myself here, but I do think that if that even if the warriors lose this game they win game five and now you really just yet. When one wrote game you have to win a road game anyway, especially after losing game one so I don't think it says must much of a must win as is everybody else, but I think you think it all depends on how they look, I think you can play a good game. If you Golden State lose, but they can't do it they can put up 11 points in the fourth quarter like they did in game three. They can't look inept on the defensive end, especially against drives like they did in game three.

I think the way it looks is arguably more important than what the outcome of the game is but I also don't buy that this is the end of the dynasty, because I mean Clay only played half the season. The endplate in two years so I still think that there is more foreplay maybe not this year but next year was like on the way, what, what was he was like he was right. I kind of wasted away person is like they needed more. They need they need a little bit more from them like best and what what needed more. They needed more from that to let me ask you this, as we as we like to go Brendan when it is here were technical difficulties is robbed us of Brian Geisinger. Or maybe he's still out in Moab. Here's the when I look at this game. These through the three games that we've seen, it just strikes me that the warriors have more question marks regarding where the points are coming from.

I know curries going to get his he's going to get 31 tonight because that's what Carrie does, but I don't know what I'm going to get from play. I don't know what I'm going to get for manager Wiggins. I don't know what I'm gonna get from Jordan Poole with Boston. I mean, I might not get a great game from from Jason Tatum. I'm probably going to get a good game from Jason Tatum but they got so many more options I could get 24 Marcus Martin 20 out how to give us 19 and 14 tonight there okay stars what route the third-best world.

I think it's probably smart like I have a lot of questions about the state is more emotional like I know what that off the table for second will be the next guy like routinely being sort of got especially early games right Golden State mission earlier.

All easement according to state to work with her position as the primary is like so just have to want to sleep with that is really short. More currently with Riverway way too long to see how that goes. Like I want to see some different changes.

Golden State C cursor will walk way in ingrained in the third quarter's and not so great in the fourth quarters and I don't know if that's just Boston wearing Golden State out the third quarter.

That's the adjustment quarter and Steve Kerr has one that all 3×33 to 25 1/4 they want like go so this game is supposed to be the go to sleep be more of his game for go my man Ed H you can sell on Twitter. Thank you very much. Go go by some and talk to you later and hopefully Brian Geisinger would clear up his technical difficulties will talk to you next week.

This is the gold shell June 19, 2006, but it all started May 6, 1997 with the announcement that the Hartford is coming to North Carolina transition of heartbreak. Figuring it out on the fly became fifth anniversary of the Carolina listen
