But 52 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 7: now uncle James is action, so him me up, all right. 53 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 5: So here's what we got going on today. 54 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 3: Pascal Siaka named as an All Star the Eastern Conference Reserves, 55 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,079 Speaker 3: well deserved, and look. 56 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 5: There would have been there would have been some upset. 57 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 3: This morning had he not been named that because he 58 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 3: has been carrying the load and he plays night in, 59 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 3: night out. He brings every night, doesn't matter who he's 60 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 3: playing against what position he's playing. They had him there 61 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 3: at times. We've talked about what they've been doing at 62 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 3: the five spot. They've had him on a five fairly 63 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 3: often this year. 64 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think looking at the nature of the selection, 65 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 7: since it wasn't by the fans or by the media, 66 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 7: the reserves, I believe are chosen just by the coaches. 67 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 7: So lets you know how much respect he has around 68 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 7: the NBA to be selected despite the Pacers only having 69 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 7: thirteen wins. I know that might have been a big 70 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 7: sticky point if you look at like All Star snubs 71 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 7: and people who felt like they should have made it 72 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 7: over Pascal. I think there's an argument to be made there, 73 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 7: but ultimately they felt like this is the guy who, 74 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,519 Speaker 7: to your point, Jeff shows up every night, plays the 75 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 7: game the right way, and to Pascal's credit, he really 76 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 7: doesn't complain when you watch him play basketball. There isn't 77 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 7: a whole lot of the dare I say, new NBA 78 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 7: where you're kind of trying to trick the refs into 79 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 7: a foul call, or you miss a shot and you're 80 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 7: on your back and you're complaining about it, like he 81 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 7: does a lot of stuff that you will probably teach 82 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 7: your kids how to do or how to play the game, 83 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:30,919 Speaker 7: or approach the game like when it comes from to 84 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 7: an attitude standpoint, a care factor of those things. So 85 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 7: it wasn't just Pascal Siakam is getting a vote from 86 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 7: his head coach. It's Pascal Siakam's getting votes from other 87 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 7: head coaches as well. 88 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 8: Yeah. I think that's really well said. 89 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 10: I think he's been you know, based off what Rick 90 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 10: Carlisle shares with us in our weekly combos, I think 91 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 10: he's done a lot for this iteration of the pacers. 92 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 10: I think this would be an easy opportunity for a 93 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 10: player of Siakam's ilk, if you will, to kind of 94 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 10: check out, to kind of sit there and say, hey, 95 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 10: I don't I didn't sign up for this, and honestly, 96 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 10: my body could use a little rest. And he's playing 97 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 10: a ton of minutes on a team that's not been good, 98 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 10: and yet he is delivered in the end of game situations. 99 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 10: That's probably the only other thing I'll add, James, I 100 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 10: thought you laid it out very very well. But there's 101 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 10: been some big time clutch moments from him this season, 102 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 10: and that was a. 103 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 8: Question we had entering the year. You know, Haliburton did 104 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 8: so much for you. 105 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 10: At the end of games last season, it was now 106 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 10: gonna be okay, you kind of got this Nemhard siakam 107 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 10: two man game. 108 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:31,039 Speaker 4: Maybe. 109 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 7: Of course, Nemhard has been. 110 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 10: In and out of the lineup, so yeah, very very deserving, 111 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 10: and I think at times you can get very standings 112 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 10: e and breaking tiebreakers some of these All Stars. By 113 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 10: the way, I have no idea what the All Star 114 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 10: format is. Is a USA World That's. 115 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 11: What it is. 116 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 7: Yeah, but there's like a three got voted on your 117 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 7: East West? 118 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 4: Is that how it? 119 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, there's like two USA teams. Isn't that they're doing 120 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 6: like a round robin this year? 121 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 7: I believe. So I want to say it's two USA 122 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 7: teams and one World team, and yeah, marks point, it's 123 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,720 Speaker 7: like a three team round robin. I think all that 124 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 7: is garbage, kind of like the Pro Bowl games. But nevertheless, 125 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,720 Speaker 7: I'll just focus on the positive of Pascal Siaka being 126 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 7: selected because trying to understand that stuff. I mean, to 127 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 7: be honest with you, I couldn't care less about the 128 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:17,840 Speaker 7: format of it because it's just not traditional. I think 129 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:19,280 Speaker 7: it's dumb. If the NBA kind of did that, I know, 130 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 7: I'm gonna rant now, but I don't know why they 131 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 7: just stopped doing the one team versus the other team 132 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 7: for about even if you want to shorten the game 133 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 7: forty minutes, I don't care. 134 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 10: But the round robin thing, like, well, I think in 135 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 10: a load management era, there's no way around it. Like 136 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 10: you cannot create a competitive all star format ever. Again 137 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:45,039 Speaker 10: in pro sports hockey is those people are different animals. 138 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 10: I get the four Nations as exploded, but like, there's 139 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:48,840 Speaker 10: no way we're ever going to get anything in the 140 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 10: Pro Bowl. There's no way an NBA game's ever gonna 141 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 10: get serious again. 142 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 7: But I will say this, the couple of years they 143 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 7: had like the elam ending. 144 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 8: A little bit like a little some of that. Yeah, 145 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 8: I think that's a step, but they took that away. 146 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 7: And to your point, yeah, I don't know if anything 147 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 7: it will ever fix it. But I'd rather watch not 148 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 7: that I don't want to watch any of this, but 149 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 7: I would rather watch a bad regular basketball game than 150 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 7: a bad round robin. That reminds me of like the 151 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 7: eight am and nine am games at AU tournament with 152 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 7: a bunch of nobodies. 153 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,600 Speaker 10: I mean that all star performance inside of gamebridge few 154 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 10: years ago was horrific. I mean it was just like 155 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 10: is literally was the worst part Liver haliburtn' gonna pull 156 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 10: up from the valley of the volleyball line. 157 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 8: Oh wait, they're not going to pass to Haliburt like 158 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 8: I mean, that was literally the whole story. 159 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 7: That was the thing of that there. 160 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 3: So yeah, well, congratulations Pascal Siakam. You can watch him 161 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 3: play tonight at the Fieldhouse against the Houston. 162 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 7: Rock real basketball. 163 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 5: Yeah, but no, uh no, Kevin Durant tonight. 164 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 3: He's out with an ankle injury right there while we're 165 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 3: talking in basketball and to go back to uh uh, well, 166 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 3: I actually want to switch over to football because Fernando 167 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 3: Mendozo has been making the rounds. Last week he did 168 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 3: a talk show that was a lot of fun. And 169 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 3: give me the context for this latest one. I think 170 00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 3: he was talking to Barstool Sports, was he not? 171 00:06:59,600 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 5: Mark? 172 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 6: So they do a thing. 173 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 2: One of my favorite things that Barstool Sports does is 174 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 2: Sunday Conversation the Sunday spelled like a ice cream Sunday 175 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 2: and it's with Caleb Presley and he interviews an athlete 176 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 2: or celebrity for you know, about under ten minutes. Every 177 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 2: single week, and this week was actually Fernando Mendoza, and 178 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 2: so he had him on and you know, it's good 179 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 2: to see guys like Fernando Mendoze. He's very serious and everything, 180 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 2: and you know, very like WW promo, like in his 181 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 2: postgame press conference. So it's nice to see him kind 182 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 2: of cut, loose and everything. 183 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 6: So this is him. 184 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 2: They discussed a if he has a Kurt Signetti impression 185 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 2: in him, and this is what he had to say. 186 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 3: You got the opportunity to play for coach Kurt Signetti. 187 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, what was that like? 188 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 6: Humbling? 189 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, that is humbling. Why is coach Chig always do 190 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 5: this face? 191 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 6: I don't know if he's like a jaw thing, but 192 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 6: I don't know just. 193 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 4: How it is. 194 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 5: Do you have a Coach Higg impression that you like 195 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 5: to do? 196 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 12: I mean I don't like to do it until now 197 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 12: because I would get benched if not. 198 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 5: So now it's now it's chill. I'm assuming. Would you 199 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 5: like to do one with the Fernando? 200 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 12: Yeah, pretty much, that's it. 201 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, what you're doing Fernando, only in a different way. Yeah. 202 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 2: And then he was also they discussed you know now 203 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 2: that Indiana is one, there's a good likelihood that if 204 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 2: they keep winning, they're going to become kind of like 205 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 2: the Death Star where people are going to be like, ah, 206 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 2: we don't like Indiana anymore or anything like that. So 207 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,679 Speaker 2: he was saying, you know, when Kurt Signetti eventually starts 208 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 2: getting hated in America, will you please send a message 209 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 2: to him and just you know, kind of like time 210 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 2: capsule this so we can play this for him when 211 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 2: eventually Kurt Signetti is hated in America. 212 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 6: And this is what Fernando had to say. 213 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 12: So, Coach Sig, this is your former player, Fernando Mendoza. 214 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:48,079 Speaker 12: Remember me, Caleb said, you're hated by America. But I 215 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,839 Speaker 12: want to let you know that I love you.

So God bless brother or 218 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 12: coach sorry, you should probably say something about the cheating 219 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 12: outs because by that time they're definitely gonna be accusing me. 220 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:08,839 Speaker 12: Oh okay ooh man, Coach Sig, we all know that 221 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 12: allegations aren't true. 222 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 8: You believe in you. 223 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 5: Bernando Mendoza. Maybe not quite the impressionist that we were hoping. 224 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 6: It's about six and a half minutes long, it is 225 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:21,719 Speaker 6: very very well done. 226 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:23,199 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's funny. He's been doing well. 227 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 7: And see I would just troll. I would just tell 228 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 7: everybody to cheat better. That's how you do it. You 229 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 7: don't deny it, you just accept it. Yeah, okay, we 230 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 7: cheat it. We cheat better than you losers. 231 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 5: Was it was it cheating though, or just taking advantage 232 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 5: of the r That's what it was. Mark. 233 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,719 Speaker 7: I also saw it cheated against Illinois, you know, and 234 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 7: fifty point difference. It was all cheating, clearly, Like what 235 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 7: are we doing? 236 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:49,719 Speaker 5: All I know is you had to come to work 237 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 5: with the candy stripe pants on the next I have 238 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:52,599 Speaker 5: the Illinois. 239 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 7: Pants on the day, baby. Shout out to Keen Woggler. 240 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:54,559 Speaker 5: Uh huh. 241 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 3: Also on social media over the weekend, I saw a 242 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 3: bunch of people who used to go to school Withana Mendozer, like, 243 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 3: I'm gonna tell you the truth about Fernando Mendoza. Saw 244 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 3: this one girl that was in a law, a pre 245 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 3: law class with him at cal and she said, the 246 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 3: professor is one of those guys likes to ask questions 247 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 3: that it might be kind of tough, and he likes 248 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 3: to pick on the athletes and call them out and 249 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,839 Speaker 3: see what they know, she said. Banana Mendoza answered every 250 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 3: one of his questions all the time, every time. 251 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 8: No shock there, Yeah, Sally said to Kayla Presley, he's 252 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 8: never been to Vegas, so here we go. 253 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 2: He asked if that was going to be a concern. 254 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 2: Do you have a concern that there's a lot of 255 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 2: like conventions and everything in Las Vegas? Like I've never 256 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 2: been to Vegas? Like would that keep you from wanting 257 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 2: to go? And I'll go wherever. 258 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 4: Yeah. 259 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 10: I don't know if the humor fully came across in 260 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 10: the audio, but it is a very fun segments. As 261 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,199 Speaker 10: Mark SAIDs I encourage you may check that out it. 262 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 10: I know one, James, what do you make vikings GM 263 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 10: getting fired? That was quite the NFL news item here. 264 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 10: I think after our show ended on Friday. 265 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 7: The timing of it was horrible in my opinion, because 266 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 7: if you're going to fire the guy, you probably should 267 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 7: fire him before you get into all of the draft prep. 268 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:03,199 Speaker 2: You know. 269 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 7: Right now, it was all about the All Star Bowls. 270 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 7: I guess, if you want to call it that, we 271 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 7: have the East West Shrine Bowl and the Senior Bowl, 272 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 7: all these things, and he's attending these events for your 273 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 7: franchise and then you fire him. So it felt like, 274 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 7: if you were going to do this, you should have 275 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 7: done it weeks ago, as soon as the season ended. 276 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,839 Speaker 7: I mean we talk about it all the time. There 277 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 7: are teams where we prepare. I mean I was one 278 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 7: of them. There's some version in my laptop here of 279 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,959 Speaker 7: the cults that fire Chris Ballard. You prepare for that 280 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,199 Speaker 7: moment because you know what's the possibility that could happen. 281 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 7: But the fact that the Vikings stuck with them. I 282 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:40,559 Speaker 7: thought that they were going to stick with them through 283 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 7: the offseason because you've seen that made up your mind. 284 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 7: But yeah, that's the only thing with it. I don't 285 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 7: mind the decision to do it, but the timing of 286 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 7: it makes it seem like you all didn't know what 287 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 7: you were doing from a hierarchy standpoint. So the Vikings 288 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:55,440 Speaker 7: to me right now, are a mess. 289 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 2: It also does another thing where it's like you're keeping 290 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 2: Kevin O'Connell and now you kind of tied yourself to 291 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,439 Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy, so now that your next GM has to 292 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 2: be on board with both of those guys. Otherwise there 293 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 2: are kind of like lane ducks as well, So it's 294 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 2: kind of like, what are we doing here? 295 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 10: Yeah, I it reminded me of the Ryan Grigson firing 296 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 10: a lot. The Colts fired Grigson very deep into the 297 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 10: month of January. I think Chuck Pegano probably would have 298 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 10: stayed for that twenty seventeen season, even if they would 299 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 10: have fired Grigson right after in the year. I think 300 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 10: Jim Mersey had, you know, pretty strong kind of emotional attachment. 301 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:29,439 Speaker 8: To Chuck there. 302 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 10: But I am kind of curious about that. Yeah, Mark, 303 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 10: to your point, I'm very curious what it means our 304 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 10: quarterback because let's play this out. If the Colts are 305 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 10: going to use the franchise tag on Alec Pierce, that 306 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:45,439 Speaker 10: means Daniel Jones they will have to compete on some 307 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 10: open market for him. Now, by all accounts, Daniel Jones 308 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:50,439 Speaker 10: wants to be here, and the Colts have made it 309 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 10: very clear publicly they want him back. I have always 310 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 10: said if there's one team that I could see enter 311 00:12:56,160 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 10: the fray, it's Minnesota, and based off from the reporting 312 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 10: of what has happened here, it sounded like a very 313 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 10: he said. She said within the coaching staff, of the 314 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 10: coaching staff being more proe, whether it would have been 315 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 10: trying to bring Sam Donald back or trying to go 316 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 10: get Daniel Jones and keep him there. 317 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 4: I guess. 318 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 10: Remember Daniel Jones was with Minnesota for the final two 319 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 10: months of the previous season, So that is the one 320 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 10: team that I'm kind of like, I understand what Mark's saying, 321 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 10: but like, I don't know if they are married to 322 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 10: JJ McCarthy. 323 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 6: Like I got the. 324 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 10: Impression that it was a draft pick that's kind of 325 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 10: been a little bit forced upon some of the coaching staff, 326 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 10: and it sounds like a very big disagreement there in 327 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 10: regards to that, among other things. 328 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 8: So I do think that is because. 329 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 10: Remember they had all the Aaron Rodgers drama too. Yeah, 330 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 10: last offseason seemed like they were trying to do stuff 331 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 10: to not necessarily commit to JJ McCarthy. 332 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 3: So not the one thing they didn't do though at quarterback. 333 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 3: They didn't keep Sam Darnold, who's now playing in the 334 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 3: Super Bowl, and the dude gets fired right after Sam 335 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 3: Donald qualifies for the Super Bowl. 336 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 8: So does that mean they will go after a Daniel Jones. 337 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 3: I think they're going I think they've signaled they're going 338 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,839 Speaker 3: to go after the best quarterback that they can find 339 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 3: because I think they screwed up. They know they screwed up, 340 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 3: and they feels to me like they don't think that 341 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 3: JJ McCarthy is the answer. 342 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 11: He's not. 343 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 5: He's getting blamed for it. 344 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 7: He's not. I mean, if you try to run it 345 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 7: back with him, I don't see how you look justin 346 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 7: Jefferson in the eyes and say there's your quarterback without 347 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 7: trying something different, trying to get somebody different. 348 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 3: Well, he waited over the weekend too, and he said 349 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 3: we'd have been a lot better off if Sam Donald 350 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 3: had stayed here. 351 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's kind of crazy how things shifted so much 352 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 7: for the Vikings because you went from having potentially to 353 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 7: pick up Sam Donald or Daniel Jones to not having either, 354 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 7: rolling on JJ McCarthy, and it backfired tremendously to the 355 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 7: point where your I mean, I would think you have 356 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 7: to consider Daniel Jones coming off an Achilles tear no 357 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 7: less as a better option than the guy you drafted 358 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 7: what ninth overall a couple of years back. So very 359 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 7: unique situation overall there in Minnesota, and I do think 360 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 7: they could be in a serious continent to try to 361 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 7: get Daniel Jones to come back there. 362 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 2: What do you think Daniel Jones, if you gave him truth, 363 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 2: SERVEM would say, if you've had the Vikings on the 364 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 2: table and the Colts on the table, do. 365 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 6: You think would be this better situation for him? 366 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 4: Yeah? 367 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 10: I would think the Colts just because he obviously played 368 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 10: here and had great success. 369 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 8: He never played in Minnesota. 370 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 10: But I you know, I think there are some reports 371 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 10: out there last offseason Minnesota offered more money than Indy. 372 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 8: Now I don't I mean, if I'm Daniel Jones, you know, 373 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 8: I don't know. 374 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 10: Anytime you sit here and say, well, the money's not 375 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 10: going to be the deciding factor, you just sound like 376 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 10: an idiot. But you know, I think Daniel Jones has 377 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 10: made a healthy amount of money in his life that 378 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 10: he probably should look at his NFL career and say, Okay, 379 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 10: where did I perform the best at? 380 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 8: Oh it was Indianapolis. Yeah, even if it is going 381 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 8: to be a couple million less, I should probably go there. 382 00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 8: But yeah, it's a good question. 383 00:15:58,880 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 11: Mark. 384 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 3: I think that it does underline what we've been talking about, 385 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 3: and even it magnifies a little bit more. 386 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 5: They got a lot of work to do this offseason. 387 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 3: If they go ahead and franchise Alec Pierce, and now 388 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 3: they're going to have to do something to get a 389 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 3: new contract for Daniel Jones. And they still don't have 390 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 3: a first round draft pick, and they still have to 391 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 3: find an edge somewhere, and they still need to beef 392 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 3: up their linebacker corep and they don't know if one 393 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 3: of their secondary guys is going. 394 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 5: To retire with the concussionary. 395 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 3: I mean, there's a lot to figure out, and a 396 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 3: lot going on, and a lot of redistribution of money 397 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 3: that's going. 398 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 5: To have to take place. 399 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 10: Kevin, Yeah, and we are I think starting to near 400 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 10: some answers on that you know, you would assume. I 401 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 10: guess honestly that your various ward situation is probably the 402 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 10: one that he needs to give him some give them 403 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 10: some sort of answer, and what doll we work three 404 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 10: weeks from tomorrow. I believe it's the NFL combine. I 405 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 10: know it's crazy that sounds to a lot of people 406 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 10: out there, and just to tie a bow and this 407 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 10: whole Vikings GM story. Ironically enough, their assistant GM, Ryan Grigson. 408 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 10: Now they announced that they have a VP of football 409 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 10: op Set will run the show through the draft and 410 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 10: then they will open up the search for a new 411 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,679 Speaker 10: GM after that. But we'll see if Ryan Grigson, who 412 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 10: has not had a GM job since obviously was fired 413 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:15,640 Speaker 10: here after the twenty sixteen season, we'll see if he's 414 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:16,399 Speaker 10: a candidate at all. 415 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 5: There. 416 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 3: Nathan Brown, he's the Colts insider at the Indie Star. 417 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 3: He also covers all kinds of things, especially Indy car 418 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 3: He joins us now on the Payless Liquors hotline. 419 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,639 Speaker 5: Happy warm Monday to you, Nathan. It feels ball me 420 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 5: out there, does it not? 421 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:35,640 Speaker 9: Yeah, compared to the fact that it was what twenty 422 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 9: or three degrees colder than this a couple of days ago, 423 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 9: I will certainly take this. 424 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 8: I'll tell you that, Nathan appreciate the time. 425 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 10: On a busy Monday morning and Nathan alongside Joel a 426 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:49,399 Speaker 10: Ericson with your Colts coverage there for the Indianapolis Star. Nathan, 427 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,640 Speaker 10: what do you think defensively, when it's all said and done, 428 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 10: we've set the number like three and a half new 429 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 10: defensive starters. If I threw that out forty this offseason 430 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 10: for the Colts, three and a half new defensive starters, 431 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:02,679 Speaker 10: would you say under over on. 432 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 4: That that's a good number, you know, just thinking through 433 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 4: what they need. 434 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 9: You know, they they probably need at least one new 435 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:14,400 Speaker 9: starter on the defensive line. I think you'd probably say, 436 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:19,399 Speaker 9: especially from listening to Chris Ballard's end of season presser 437 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 9: with US, I would expect at least one, if not 438 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 9: two starters on you know, linebacker. You know the Travous 439 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 9: Ward is uncertain on if he's going to return the 440 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 9: season or not. So you know, when you go through 441 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 9: all of that and you have some free agency uncertainty, 442 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:37,880 Speaker 9: I'll take the maybe the slight over. I think four 443 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 9: sounds maybe about right, but it, you know, wouldn't be 444 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,880 Speaker 9: a complete surprise if you were even maybe one higher 445 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 9: than that. 446 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:49,160 Speaker 7: Nathan. When I look at the Colts, it all comes 447 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 7: down to the quarterback and it comes down to Daniel Jones. 448 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 7: And I was reading through your piece this is probably 449 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 7: a couple weeks ago actually about the conference championship teams 450 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 7: and what the Colts can learn from them, and the 451 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:06,119 Speaker 7: quarterback question is one that is very unique to me. 452 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,440 Speaker 7: And as you laid out on your piece, they really 453 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,959 Speaker 7: got Daniel on a cheap deal last year fourteen million dollars. 454 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 7: How do you see that playing out now that he's 455 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 7: due for another contract? But he's also coming off an injury, 456 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 7: but you also mortgage the future because you had him, 457 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 7: So it's kind of a unique situation. 458 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 9: It's it's so hard to think about how they could 459 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:30,160 Speaker 9: think about structuring this deal. You know, we talked about 460 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 9: you know, even before the Achilles injury. It was a 461 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:35,919 Speaker 9: lot easier, I think, to project. You could look at 462 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 9: contracts from guys like Baker Mayfield or Sam Darnold in 463 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:44,880 Speaker 9: the recent past, guys that were looking to revitalize their 464 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 9: careers and had shown signs that they had done so, 465 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 9: and so they got you know, those three year deals 466 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 9: right around one hundred million dollars in total. And I 467 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 9: think that was probably the benchline for Daniel Jones right 468 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 9: before he went and toward his Achille. He's in week 469 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:03,359 Speaker 9: fourteen in Jacksonville, so it's it's hard to think about 470 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 9: what that deal would be now. I would have to 471 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 9: think it's very team friendly, just because of the uncertainties 472 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,000 Speaker 9: coming off and Achilles. 473 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 4: I know Daniel and certainly know that the team is. 474 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 9: Really confident that he will come back from this without 475 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 9: any issues, and even I think will come. 476 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 4: Back at least according to their projected. 477 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,400 Speaker 9: Timelines, in time for training camp, but there are still 478 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 9: uncertainties about a major injury. Injury like that, I would think, 479 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 9: you know, I know, both sides want to get a 480 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 9: deal together, so you would think that they wouldn't have 481 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 9: to go the franchise tag route. That's always an option, 482 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 9: but that gets that one year deal up around forty 483 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 9: five million dollars or so, which is then really hard 484 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 9: to continue building a strong team around Daniel if you're 485 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 9: having to pay money for a quarterback like him who 486 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 9: is above you know, it's above average, but certainly and 487 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 9: really fairly strong and lots of metrics, but before he 488 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 9: got hurt, but still not one of your top echelon quarterbacks. 489 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 9: I think if they could get something in a longer 490 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 9: term deal, maybe right around that thirty million dollars a 491 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,680 Speaker 9: year range, I don't know, you know what interests you 492 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 9: have to balance on both sides of wanting to get 493 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 9: some insurance from Daniel and wanting to get maybe some 494 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 9: of the same in a In a different note for 495 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 9: the Colts, but I certainly think that they could work 496 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 9: something out. But I can I feel fairly confident, even 497 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:29,239 Speaker 9: with the injury, that it's going to be a lot 498 00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 9: more than fourteen million dollars for their starting quarterback this 499 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 9: year to. 500 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 3: That in with no first round draft pick, and they've 501 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 3: got some monetary issues to address. 502 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 5: How do they go about all this? 503 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 9: Yeah, I think you know, we started talking about it, 504 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 9: and Michael Pittman junior frankly was upfront and mentioned it 505 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 9: himself in the locker room minutes after the Colts last game. 506 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 4: Of the year in Houston. 507 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 9: They are going to be some tough decisions to make 508 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 9: with some guys who they could cut, who aren't necessarily 509 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 9: ones that we're thinking about, who are in, you know, 510 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,200 Speaker 9: who have played their last game of their contract, Guys 511 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 9: like Michael Pittman junior, Guys like Zire Franklin, who could 512 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 9: be cut and save the Colts a lot of money 513 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 9: up against the cap. I think that that number for 514 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:24,200 Speaker 9: Michael Pittman juniors somewhere right around twenty four million dollars. 515 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 4: They don't have it right in front of me, but 516 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:26,239 Speaker 4: that sounds about right. 517 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 9: So there are there are deals like that where you 518 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 9: can start cutting some guys that would be freed up 519 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 9: at the end of twenty twenty six completely who you 520 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 9: don't have a whole lot of guaranteed money owed to 521 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 9: where you could make some room, because you're going to 522 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 9: have to do that to get some more of that 523 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 9: money for for Daniel Jones to hold on to Alex Pierce. 524 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 9: If you're going to go out and make a splash 525 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 9: for someone at defensive end, those those moves are not 526 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,920 Speaker 9: going to be cheap, and so you're they're they're going 527 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 9: to have to part ways. I think with a veteran 528 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,400 Speaker 9: or two who has been on this team for quite 529 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 9: some time, who frankly can just save this team some 530 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 9: money and whose production maybe isn't quite worth the amount 531 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,120 Speaker 9: of money that they would be scheduled to be paying them. 532 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,640 Speaker 10: In twenty twenty six, get Nathan Brown on the colts 533 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:13,879 Speaker 10: beat for the Indianapolis Star alongside Joel a. 534 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 8: Ericson. 535 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 10: He's with us year on the Paylos Lickers hotline. Nathan, 536 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 10: it was a story that broke kind of when we 537 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 10: signed off on Friday, and I know you had a 538 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,160 Speaker 10: few tweets about it. We're getting into your past history 539 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 10: if you did such a great job. 540 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 8: Cover an IndyCar for several years. 541 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 10: The announcement of the Freedom two point fifty coming up 542 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 10: this year in Washington, d C. And X, the Executive 543 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:39,160 Speaker 10: Order signed by President Trump with that, obviously we've seen 544 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 10: Fox have their imprint all over Indy Carr here in 545 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 10: whatever it's been now a year plus. What did you 546 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 10: make of that it'll be an eighteenth race here for 547 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:53,160 Speaker 10: IndyCar coming up this season and just everything around that announcement. 548 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 4: I think the. 549 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 9: First thing that came to mind initially for me was 550 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 9: just how resoundingly Indiecar officials told us after the season 551 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 9: was over with, after the idea or the possibility of 552 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 9: a race in DC started bubbling, you know, in the 553 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 9: you know, talk around the paddock, I would say somewhere 554 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:20,400 Speaker 9: in late August of last year, right around the last 555 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 9: one or two races of the season, and by the 556 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:26,880 Speaker 9: time the schedule came out in mid September, we finally 557 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:28,360 Speaker 9: got a chance to ask IndyCar officials. 558 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 4: I think Mark Miles was the. 559 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 9: Person who took the question in a zoom that some 560 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:34,880 Speaker 9: of us had with them once the schedule came out, 561 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:39,920 Speaker 9: and he said that a race in DC for twenty 562 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 9: twenty six was just never really a viable option, and that, 563 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:44,919 Speaker 9: I mean, frankly felt realistic when. 564 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 4: You think about the timelines that you know, NASCAR, IndyCar. 565 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 9: Officials are typically working under for a brand new street race. 566 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 9: Those things are you know, with all the permits you 567 00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 9: have to come up with, and you know, the planning 568 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 9: for the track and massaging the surface to have it 569 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 9: raceable with these cars, all the things you have to 570 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 9: put together, it's just really difficult to announce something like 571 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 9: that less than twelve months before you v racing. So 572 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 9: even beck in September when the schedule came out, it 573 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 9: was not surprising that that did not end up on 574 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 9: the twenty twenty sixth calendar. The fact that they are 575 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 9: pursuing this now, and granted I know that a lot 576 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 9: of work went into that initial idea when this was 577 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 9: you know, when this idea first came up, I think 578 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 9: Penske Corp. President Bud Banker said and that press conference 579 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 9: with President Trump on Friday, that he had had something. 580 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:48,159 Speaker 4: Along the lines of eighty meetings on the Hill with. 581 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:52,399 Speaker 9: Members of Congress or other folks in the federal government 582 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 9: about trying to put this together. 583 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 4: Whether those were in September or. 584 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 9: Closer to now, it's not entirely clear, But this is 585 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 9: this is not an idea that they are just coming 586 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 9: up with now. In late January, or early February, but 587 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:08,880 Speaker 9: is something that is really just actually starting to take hold. 588 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 9: I have to think that there was a time maybe 589 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,120 Speaker 9: where this wasn't there were a ton of work wasn't 590 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 9: getting put to this, because it seemed from that press 591 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 9: conference that the president and his administration got winned that 592 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 9: this was something that folks were interested. 593 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:23,439 Speaker 10: In and. 594 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 4: Did his best to green light it really quickly. 595 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 9: So I I think the biggest worry is just that 596 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 9: they can pull something like this to this magnitude that 597 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 9: is a free event for fans. You know, how they're 598 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 9: going to do security, how they are going to you know, 599 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:45,639 Speaker 9: make this, you know, to make the track and the 600 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 9: area around it as safe as possible. It's just it's 601 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 9: hard to imagine being able to pull all of this 602 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 9: off well in the six or seven months time that 603 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,920 Speaker 9: we have. When you also think about everything that Penske 604 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 9: Entertainment has to handle. I think they handle promoting in 605 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 9: some level, either directly or indirectly, eight or nine races 606 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,119 Speaker 9: of the seventeen now eighteen on the schedule, and this 607 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 9: will be an additional one on their plates. So it's 608 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 9: you know, if they pulled this off, it will be 609 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:16,880 Speaker 9: an absolute incredible feat. 610 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 4: But it's just hard to imagine something like this coming. 611 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 9: Together successfully because most street races that you have, even 612 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:27,880 Speaker 9: with twelve months or eighteen months lead. 613 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 4: Time, there are always issues. 614 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:32,640 Speaker 9: When you start things off in year one, and those 615 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 9: are things that you kind of know going in and 616 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 9: you can hope to correct them in a year two 617 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,359 Speaker 9: so you can get a new contract by the end 618 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 9: of year three. 619 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 5: Nathan, thanks for the time this morning. Appreciate that. 620 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 3: Have fun this month getting back to the combine and 621 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 3: doing your NFL thing with all of us, and we'll 622 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 3: see out there. 623 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 4: Sounds good, great, Thanks guys. 624 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 5: Thanks Mark.

Do we move on or we 629 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 5: just stuck in perpetu it? 630 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:08,439 Speaker 6: Yes, you got to stay tuned and find out. 631 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,199 Speaker 5: All right, Well tonight you can find out. 632 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,640 Speaker 3: The Indiana Pacers continue a nice little role that they've 633 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 3: kind of started. They beat the Atlanta Hawks on Saturday night. 634 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:18,879 Speaker 3: They're playing much better basketball these days, and now the 635 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 3: trade deadline is upon us on Thursday. A lot of 636 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,440 Speaker 3: people are wondering if any of the Pacers might get 637 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,880 Speaker 3: moved to Benedict Mathern is the guy they'll get moved. 638 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,159 Speaker 3: They're looking for a center, trying to shake things up 639 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,160 Speaker 3: a little bit as they prepare for maybe next year. 640 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 3: Alex Golden covers the team. He's got a great podcast 641 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 3: there setting the pace. He's also a good friend of 642 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 3: the program and the show and the station. He joins 643 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 3: us now on the pay Less Liquors Hotline. Good morning, 644 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 3: Alex Golden. How's your Groundhog Day? 645 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 11: You know, it's been all right, a little cold out, 646 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 11: but it's warming up, so that's a good thing. It 647 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 11: feels like, you know, twenty degrees out now versus what 648 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 11: was it like one degrees yesterday morning, So that's a 649 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 11: little bit better. But yeah, I'm ready to be a 650 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 11: little bit warmer than we've been recently. 651 00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 5: Man, are we talking about warming up? 652 00:28:59,200 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 2: Though? 653 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 5: How far away are we from that thirteen game losing 654 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 5: streak right now? 655 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean it seems like it's in the rearview mirror. 656 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 11: I think there're seven and five since that thirteen game 657 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,720 Speaker 11: losing streaks. So the Pacers are playing better basketball, but yeah, we'll. 658 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 13: Have to see if that continues on Alex, I would 659 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 13: love to talk about all those things related to how 660 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 13: well they're playing, but I've been on tankathon dot com 661 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 13: more often than not this season. 662 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 7: How are we feeling about the draft positioning? Where do 663 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 7: you stand when it comes to fans who are like, 664 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 7: wait a second, we need to keep losing. To the 665 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:32,520 Speaker 7: fans for are like I would like to see a 666 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 7: win every now and then. 667 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean I think will win every now and 668 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 11: then is nice, but not as many wins as they've 669 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 11: been getting. I feel like, let's not lose sight of 670 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,480 Speaker 11: what's going on. And I think if there's any hope 671 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 11: of what the Pacers are thinking long term, it's that 672 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 11: Kevin Pritchard was in the building for the Kansas versus 673 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 11: BYU game this week, and then I stile reminder of, Hey, 674 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 11: I think they have an idea of what you really 675 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 11: important here. 676 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 4: But the draft lottery odds are all over the. 677 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 11: Place, and it feels like the team with the worst 678 00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 11: record consistently out of number one. So maybe they're thinking, hey, 679 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 11: let's be you know, a second or third worst team 680 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 11: in the league, but we don't want to get out 681 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 11: of that fourteen percent. But maybe being number one oddwise 682 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 11: is not the best place to be. So I don't know. 683 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 11: I just I think that the Pacers are always going 684 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 11: to be an organization that tries to go about it 685 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 11: the right way, the ethical way of not tanking to 686 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 11: lose games until it's like you're eliminateaded from the playoffs. 687 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 11: But I just I think that, you know, Pascal Siaka, 688 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 11: I'm racking up thirty five, thirty six minutes a night. 689 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 11: That's got to come down at some point. 690 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 7: Well, yes, I feel like now that he's earned his 691 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 7: All Star Game appearance, we got to reevaluate some of 692 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 7: those minutes. But I will go back to the drafts. 693 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 7: One more question on that, and that is in all serious, 694 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:42,960 Speaker 7: as Alex, who's number one of your big board right 695 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 7: now today? Because we were debating this earlier. I think 696 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 7: Darren Peterson from Kansas is the best player in the country, 697 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 7: and he showed it for at least for one half 698 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 7: against BYU and aj Debanza. But then also the leg 699 00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 7: stuff I'm very you know, iffy about Okay, can you 700 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 7: hold up? Is this something we should be worried about 701 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 7: for his future? 702 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 6: So all of that. 703 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 7: Factor, Dan, I'm not saying you have to have a 704 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 7: definitive answer. Obviously it could change from from here to 705 00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:10,720 Speaker 7: the draft, but right now today, who are you rolling 706 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 7: with at number one? 707 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 11: Yeah, it's a great question, and I think all season long, 708 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 11: I've been convincing myself that agent Avansa is the perfect 709 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 11: for the Pacers. He's six foot nine. You can't find 710 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 11: those kind of players. They don't grow on trees, especially 711 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 11: with his level of play, Like he's the number one rank. 712 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 11: I think you know RSci in terms of you know, 713 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 11: all of the polls out there, but when you watch 714 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 11: that game right you could just tell, like Peterson he's 715 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 11: notch above the Bans in terms of just what I 716 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 11: think talent wise. The injuries are a huge question mark. 717 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 11: It does seem like maybe they're doing some you know, 718 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 11: load management type things to just make sure he stays 719 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 11: ready for the draft. And that's, you know, not the 720 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 11: worst thing to do, because college of basketball and college 721 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 11: sports in general has become more of a business than anything. 722 00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 11: But I think that if you're looking at the Pacers 723 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 11: like you can't go wrong with either of them. The 724 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 11: Banca fits in perfectly with the size and the link. 725 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 11: But it's hard not to tell yourself that Peterson should 726 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 11: be the first overall pick if you get the first pick, 727 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 11: because I think he would fit in seamlessly with this system. 728 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 11: But you're right, James, I mean if he does have injury, 729 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 11: you know, history or concerns with the leg injuries, and 730 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 11: you already got Tyres Halbert who's dealt with you know, 731 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 11: hamstrings and cap titaness and achilles and all that. That's 732 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 11: a little bit worriedsome for your long term future if 733 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 11: you're the Pacers again. 734 00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 8: And that's the voice of Alex Golden setting the pace. 735 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 10: Great, great listen for Pacer fans out there, and Alex 736 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 10: joins us here on the Payless Slickers hot line. All right, 737 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 10: trade deadline Thursday afternoon, Alex, let's start here before we 738 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 10: begin discussing a trade. Should the Pacers want to re 739 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 10: sign Benedict Matheren. 740 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 11: Yeah, that's a good question. I think that he is 741 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 11: a valuable player for them in terms of being able 742 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 11: to put the ball in the basket. There's no denying 743 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 11: that he can do that. He can get to the 744 00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 11: free throw line as well when he's playing the best, you. 745 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 4: Know, version of his basketball game. 746 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 11: But I think they should want to sign him. My 747 00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 11: biggest concern is does he want to here if he 748 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 11: is not a starter? And I think that's where this 749 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 11: could get really, you know, difficult in terms of those conversations. 750 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:08,680 Speaker 11: And I don't know how you guys are feeling about this, 751 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:10,800 Speaker 11: but since his return from injury, I've been a little 752 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 11: bit surprised they have not gone back to him and 753 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 11: the starting lineup still rocking with Walker and Furfey and 754 00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 11: bringing him off the bench even though he is still 755 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 11: playing close to the starter level minutes. I just find 756 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:22,520 Speaker 11: it a little bit interesting that they haven't reinserted him, 757 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 11: especially if they were going to be planning to keep 758 00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:26,440 Speaker 11: him past the trade deadline, I think that they would 759 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 11: probably already have reinserted him. That's just my two cents, though. 760 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 10: Do you see any way they could retain Matherin, retain 761 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 10: their first round pick, and still find a center of 762 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 10: the future before next season begins. 763 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 11: It is possible. It'd be very hard, and it depends 764 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 11: on how high of a level of a center you need, 765 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 11: right because I think you could find assets with whether 766 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 11: it's jars Falker, who will be you know on the 767 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 11: fourth his final you know, your Fysericky contract, You got 768 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 11: Ben Sheppard's same thing Isaiah Jackson's contract will be there. 769 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,080 Speaker 11: Obie Toppins could be there potentially too, if you if 770 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:01,760 Speaker 11: you value mather Hern at twenty three to twenty four 771 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 11: years old, plus going out there and. 772 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 4: Getting this draft pick. 773 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 11: But I just I think at the end of the day, 774 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 11: it's just the money situation is where it's going to 775 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:12,759 Speaker 11: be difficult. And if mathurns demanding close to twenty twenty 776 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 11: five million dollars, how many guys can you play at 777 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 11: pay at that level? And is he going to be 778 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:19,840 Speaker 11: okay with his playing time? I think all that plays 779 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 11: a huge factor for BKB, and it's it's doable, But 780 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 11: I don't think it's likely. 781 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 3: All this talk about the future and trades and all 782 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 3: that kind of stuff and potential lottery. 783 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,800 Speaker 5: How do the Pacers play the second half of this season? 784 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:35,359 Speaker 5: How they play this card? 785 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean I think it's all about development. I 786 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 11: mean trying different lineups. I mean, seeing what Furfey and 787 00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:43,879 Speaker 11: Walker can do with a bigger role instead of having 788 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,360 Speaker 11: Siakam kind of carry them. See what Cam Jones brings you, 789 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,399 Speaker 11: because he's got a partial guarantee on his contract next year. 790 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 11: Give Quentin Jackson and Ethan Thompson somewhere looks at the 791 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 11: two way spot, see if you want Abe convert Quinting 792 00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 11: Jackson to a standard contract because his two way runs 793 00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,440 Speaker 11: up at the end of the season. I think, you know, 794 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:03,399 Speaker 11: continuing to develop your bigs with Jay Huff and seeing 795 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 11: what kind of chemistry he can develop. Of course you 796 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,000 Speaker 11: have Obi Top and who could come back at some 797 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 11: point in February. I think it'd be good to get 798 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:10,560 Speaker 11: him some reps just to kind of shake some of 799 00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:12,640 Speaker 11: the rest off. So there's definitely a lot of things 800 00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:15,560 Speaker 11: they can do to do it. But I think playing 801 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:18,880 Speaker 11: them Hardney Smith, Siakam and all those guys and McConnell 802 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,839 Speaker 11: thirty plus minutes it's not smart, and I think maybe 803 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:23,800 Speaker 11: lowering their minutes or maybe even having them sit some 804 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 11: games would be huge for just getting other guys some 805 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,240 Speaker 11: opportunities that maybe they wouldn't have in a normal season. 806 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,799 Speaker 5: Always good to talk to Alex Golden. Thanks so much 807 00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 5: for joining us. 808 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:37,040 Speaker 3: We'll see at the field House again soon and us 809 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:39,239 Speaker 3: keep us up to day and what might be happening Thursday.
