Speaker 2: many fans know he's not left handed?

11
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 4: Who look at the warrior bitch?

12
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:42,199
Speaker 2: That is awesome, But Jetski realize that that's big respecting

13
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 2: Joe Lego recognized him.

14
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,960
Speaker 4: He's out there gamely playing with a very injured right wrist.

15
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,600
Speaker 4: Of the shooting his free throws left me and he

16
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 4: wouldn't be able to get it there now had he

17
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 4: got to steal? All right?

18
00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 2: If that doesn't encapsulate the night that the Olden State

19
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,039
Speaker 2: Warriors just had, I don't know what does malevi Leones

20
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,919
Speaker 2: basically playing left handed, not in the way that Larry

21
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 2: Bird told the Portland Trailblazers like forty years ago he

22
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 2: was only going to play left handed and then ended

23
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 2: up scoring like forty points and lead him to a win.

24
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 4: This due to.

25
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:21,320
Speaker 2: Injury, and man, that kind of night, A lot of

26
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 2: Victor wibin Yama woo, how good is he?

27
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 4: My goodness?

28
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 2: And a lot of the San Antonio Spurs taking it

29
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 2: to what was left of the Warriors here with kind

30
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 2: of an April fool's lineup. I don't think you would

31
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 2: have believed me or would have thought it would have

32
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 2: been an April fools prank if I had announced the

33
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 2: guys that were going to be healthy and available for

34
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 2: the Warriors. But alas the Dubs get beat one twenty

35
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 2: seven to one, thirteen is the final. We welcome the

36
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:56,279
Speaker 2: in here to Dubs OT with jd on the Sports Leader.

37
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 2: We are in April remarkably, and we are coming to

38
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 2: you from Harmonic Brewing in Thrive City, the first of

39
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 2: the five game homestand to close out the series, or

40
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 2: the season rather for the Warriors on the Chase Center

41
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 2: hardwood before a couple of games in Sacramento and in

42
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 2: LA to close things out. Only six games to go

43
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:21,399
Speaker 2: now and the Warriors finding themselves inching closer to being

44
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 2: that ten seed in the Western Conference play and race

45
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,959
Speaker 2: Ana eight canb are the number four one, five eight,

46
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 2: five six two seven to jump in and join the conversation,

47
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 2: as the Warriors do fall back to thirty six and

48
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:42,919
Speaker 2: forty on the season, back to four under five hundred,

49
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 2: and this one ending in ugly, ugly fashion, not like

50
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,079
Speaker 2: the Sharks tonight, Not like the Sharks today who wont

51
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:57,679
Speaker 2: an absolute thriller in the closing minutes of their game

52
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 2: tonight in San Jose against again it's the Ducks. The

53
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 2: Warriors only nine available tonight in this one, And yeah,

54
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 2: Malvi Leones basically playing without his dominant hand.

55
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 4: You had Brandon Pajemski, LJ.

56
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 2: Cryer, I mean Kyle, and we got Kyle Horr in

57
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 2: the Daily City studios. I mean, my goodness, if I

58
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 2: told you at any point, yeah, it's gonna be Pajemski, Crier,

59
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 2: Nate Williams, will Richard Draymond Green, Pat Spencer, Seth Curry, Omar,

60
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 2: You're seven, and Malvi Laones.

61
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 4: Like, if I had told you at any point on

62
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 4: any day.

63
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 2: This season that those are going to be the nine

64
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 2: guys that suit up for the Warriors in a regular

65
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 2: season game, you would have thought it was at April Fool's.

66
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 3: Joke, no doubt, And the funny part was on the

67
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 3: television broadcast, they panned to the Warriors kind of huddling

68
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 3: up doing their pregame huddle in the tunnel before they

69
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 3: stormed the court, and there was like six guys.

70
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: I was like, what are we doing?

71
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 3: And and the fact that the fact that malevi Leons

72
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 3: was out there playing with his left hand, but solely

73
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 3: out there because they needed the bodies kind of just

74
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 3: encapsulates the Warriors.

75
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 2: Season, encapsulates the entire entire night tonight, to be sure,

76
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,480
Speaker 2: and the way this season, unfortunately for Golden State, has

77
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 2: has devolved and they wind up getting blown out tonight

78
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 2: once twenty seven to one thirteen. So anyway, cambr if

79
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 2: you want to jump in and join the conversation, the

80
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 2: best YouTube chat in sports, dig him, chime it in.

81
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 2: And he did tweet me during the game. I think

82
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 2: it was at halftime. Digham sent a message on Twitter

83
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 2: or x or whatever the heck we're calling it these days.

84
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,239
Speaker 2: He said, I tried to tell you he did. He said,

85
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 2: JD head over to Harmonic, start the show now, and

86
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 2: then you can leave when everybody else is leaving at

87
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,640
Speaker 2: the end of the game, basically right about now, because

88
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 2: we would have been on about ninety minutes, so we'd

89
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 2: be wrapping up the show at this point. You did

90
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 2: you did dig him?

91
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 4: Try.

92
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 2: We got a Danny in Vancouver sighting tonight here by

93
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 2: the way at Harmonic in Thrive City in is GP

94
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:20,159
Speaker 2: two Jersey Tonight, Danny and Vancouver's getting himself a brew

95
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 2: and we'll make sure to give him a shout out

96
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:25,280
Speaker 2: as he joins A.

97
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 4: What a night to pick.

98
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 2: Obviously you get a chance to see the spurs and

99
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 2: whoa when Ben Yama, I mean, the could anybody have imagined?

100
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 2: You know, there was always gonna be that one year

101
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 2: where where he just makes an incredible leap and they

102
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 2: were immediately gonna shift into title contention. I don't think

103
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,280
Speaker 2: anybody wouldn't necessarily believe that it would have been this year.

104
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 2: But my goodness, and yeah, Danny and Vancouver here, Yeah,

105
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 2: you could take it absolutely here inside Harmonic in the

106
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 2: GP two Jersey. So to make sure we shout him

00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 2: get to fight over which one, which who wants which one?

114
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,840
Speaker 2: So yeah, beautiful. I know Danny's a little camera shy.

115
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 2: I would I would have him pop on and say

116
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 2: hi to the people, but uh, Danny wants to enjoy

117
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 2: his drink and and and thank you very much and

118
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 2: as as we Uh yeah great, great to see Danny

119
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 2: uh in person. Uh here on dubzo te we love

120
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,080
Speaker 2: Danny from Vancouver, says Fozzy in the chat here from

121
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:47,840
Speaker 2: from the nine two five. So yeah, not a lot

122
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:52,480
Speaker 2: of grand takeaways tonight. Uh truly another one of these

123
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 2: nights for the the sickos and and even I don't

124
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 2: know even.

125
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 4: The sickest to the sickos tonight.

126
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 2: I mean I I d of wanted to start with

127
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 2: Wim ben Yama, which is not the norm to start

128
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,719
Speaker 2: with an opposing player. But we all knew there was

129
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 2: going to be that one year where he would prove

130
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 2: that he could be healthy and that he would make

131
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 2: a leap that would instantaneously propel the Spurs to contender status.

132
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 2: And this year is the year, I was saying before

133
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 2: Danny popped over I didn't think necessarily it would be

134
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 2: this year. Certainly the Spurs were hoping it would be

135
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,559
Speaker 2: getting into the playoffs or into the top six level.

136
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 2: But I keep finding myself as I watched them play

137
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 2: and watch them progress through the season, thinking they can

138
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 2: win the NBA Championship this season. And maybe it's a

139
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 2: little of the recency of watching them take four out

140
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 2: of five against Oklahoma City in the regular season series,

141
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 2: plus the Emirates Cup where they had the extra game

142
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 2: against each other. I mean, San Antonio handled Okase. They're

143
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,240
Speaker 2: battling tooth and nail down here through the final two

144
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 2: weeks of the season for the top spot in the

145
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 2: Western Conference playoff race.

146
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 4: And Wembin Yama, I mean.

147
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 2: He had fourteen and six in the first Well, we

148
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 2: weren't even six minutes into the game, we weren't even

149
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 2: halfway through the through the quarter. And the Warriors don't

150
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 2: have any of their bigs tonight available. You got Draymond

151
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 2: playing center, and Draymon who did a hell of a

152
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 2: job back in November in San Antonio against Wemby. And

153
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 2: you know, you try to you try to get into him, right,

154
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 2: you try to almost undercut him. You get in you

155
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 2: try to get into his body because he's gonna be

156
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 2: able to shoot over the top of his so you

157
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,479
Speaker 2: want to make him uncomfortable with some of the physicality

158
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 2: and the body to prevent him from getting the shot off.

159
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 2: But he is just evolved into everything that you would

160
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 2: have imagined he would have become as a player. Ends

161
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 2: up with forty one and eighteen on the night in

162
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 2: twenty nine minutes.

163
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 4: In twenty nine minutes, hits a couple of threes.

164
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 2: I mean, the game was there, he had three assists,

165
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 2: he had three blocks to boot. I mean, he just

166
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 2: dominates the interior and you know, throws shots off, changes

167
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 2: other shots. It just prevents players from wanting to even

168
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 2: challenge at all on the interior. And yeah, light work

169
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 2: kind of a night. Doesn't even play thirty men. I

170
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 2: mean that is like a ridiculous that is a Steph Curry,

171
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 2: Klay Thompson Heyday of the Warriors type of scoring output

172
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 2: and efficiency output in so few minutes. It's basically the

173
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 2: you know, don't don't play the thirty, but you end

174
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 2: up with forty and it just he is just absolutely

175
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 2: out of this world. And I'm curious what you think

176
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,839
Speaker 2: as far as san Antonio goes and their ability to

177
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 2: win it this year, because I think they've got a shot.

178
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 2: And I never would have imagined that I would be

179
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 2: saying that this year. I would have thought they would

180
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:56,959
Speaker 2: have been one more move away. You know, Fox is

181
00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 2: really fit in with with them, and and then all

182
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 2: of the young players. It's funny, all of the young

183
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 2: players that were not really deemed to be good enough

184
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 2: that had to play these last two three four years

185
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 2: play a lot of minutes. It's in some ways it

186
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 2: is similar to Pachemski and Moody and some of the

187
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:25,320
Speaker 2: Warrior guys that san Antonio drafted, the Vaselles and Keldon

188
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 2: Johnson and you know some of those guys that you know,

189
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 2: Castle's obviously a terrific player, but none of those guys

190
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 2: are stars. But you put a superstar the caliber of

191
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 2: Wimbin Yaba now with all of those other guys, and

192
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 2: now all those other guys are just great rotation players

193
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,560
Speaker 2: on a team that maybe is a contender. And you know,

194
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 2: then you mix in Dylan Harper, and you mix in

195
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 2: Harrison Barnes, who's playing really well for them. So number

196
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 2: one on a night where they weren't really challenged because

197
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 2: of unfortunately what the Warriors were forced to put out

198
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 2: there due to the injury bug. It, truly I thought,

199
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 2: was a, you know, another example of san Antonio kind

200
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 2: of showing you in dominant fashion against a team that

201
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 2: the war You know, the Warriors have played san Antonio,

202
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 2: I think as well as anybody throughout the course of

203
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 2: the year, especially early, beating them the two times in

204
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 2: San Antonio, even short handed here the night before the

205
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 2: All Star Game. The Warriors played very well competitively into

206
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,679
Speaker 2: the fourth quarter of that one before san Antonio kind

207
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 2: of flipped the switch and flipped the game completely on them.

208
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 2: So the Spurs came out tonight and said, don't care

209
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 2: who's playing, notugh of that. We're gonna We're gonna put

210
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 2: this game down and put this game in the in

211
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 2: the win column quick fast and in a hurry. Eight

212
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 2: to eight KNBR four one five, eight to eight, five

213
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 2: six two seven winds up being a light work one

214
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 2: twenty seven to one thirteen win for the San Antonio

215
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 2: Spurs over the Warriors. Spurs pick up win number fifty

216
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 2: eight on the season, while the Warriors dropped to thirty

217
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 2: six and forty and they now two back without the

218
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 2: tie breaker as far as nine versus ten. So it's

219
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 2: looking like the Warriors are they're gonna be going somewhere.

220
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,839
Speaker 2: Is it gonna be Portland? Portland? And the Clippers are

221
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 2: still battling. Portland won last night down in Inglewood to

222
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 2: beat the Clippers and move to within a half game.

223
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 2: Those two teams play again next week in Portland, so

224
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 2: that's gonna have a determining factor the outcome of that

225
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,839
Speaker 2: game as to who winds up eight, who winds up nine.

226
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 2: There is now a separation between where Phoenix is at

227
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,840
Speaker 2: and the Clippers of three games as I look at

228
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 2: it here in the Western Conference. But the Warriors one

229
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 2: more game tomorrow night, the second of the back to

230
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 2: back without Steph, and then we'll see as things continue

231
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 2: to point towards Stephen Curry and his ability to return.

232
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 2: It sounds like Sunday is gonna be the night when

233
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 2: the Warriors take on the Rockets, and I think the

234
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 2: plan for Steph assuming he comes out of the final scrimmage. Okay,

235
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 2: he did finally go through the five on five that

236
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 2: he hadn't been able to go through, came out of

237
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 2: it well, and so the expectation is that he's going

238
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 2: to go through that again. If not a as close

239
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 2: to a full team practice as the Warriors can have,

240
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 2: the likelihood that that will occur is going to be

241
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 2: on Saturday. So you get the second game of the

242
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,679
Speaker 2: back to back, and my goodness, you look at who

243
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 2: the Warriors didn't have tonight. They are expected to get

244
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 2: Melton back tomorrow. They are expected to get Porzingis back tomorrow.

245
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 2: GP two will have to see he was questionable right

246
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 2: up until the final couple of minutes before game time.

247
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:38,439
Speaker 2: They are it sounds optimistic on Gi Santos, but I mean,

248
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,959
Speaker 2: my goodness, you don't have Steph. You don't have Jimmy,

249
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 2: you don't have Moody, you don't have Horford, you don't

250
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 2: have Borzingis, you don't have Peyton, you don't have Gi Santos,

251
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:50,200
Speaker 2: you don't have the Anthony Melton, you don't even have

252
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 2: Quinton Post On a night like tonight as well. I mean,

253
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 2: it is pretty incredible. As depleted as the Warriors have

254
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 2: been at different points in the last two and a

255
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 2: half months, tonight takes the cake on all of it.

256
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,680
Speaker 2: I mean, again, LJ cryer out there trying to do

257
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:13,319
Speaker 2: the best he can in the starting lineup. You've got

258
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 2: Nate Williams out there trying to do the best that

259
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 2: he can in the starting lineup and ends up with

260
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 2: eighteen points and the Warriors, for what it was worth,

261
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 2: did end up with what seven and double figures, but

262
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 2: just no size, no way to compete with what san

263
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 2: Antonio was putting out there tonight. And Wemby is just incredible.

264
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 2: I mean, he just took the game over in those

265
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 2: first six minutes and basically said not tonight, Warriors find

266
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 2: themselves down by as many as seventeen in that first quarter.

267
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:55,160
Speaker 2: It was ugly early ten to nothing, seventeen to three,

268
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 2: twenty five to nine, it was twenty eight to eleven,

269
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 2: and again we talked about Wemby with fourteen and six

270
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 2: in the first six minutes. Steve Kirk joked before the

271
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 2: game that they had the game plan to stop Wemby.

272
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 2: Somebody said, what do you do against Wimby when you're

273
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 2: short on basically all your true big men, and Steve

274
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 2: just looked with a real ry smile. He says, Oh,

275
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:18,640
Speaker 2: we we figured it out. We just went over it

276
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 2: down in the in the practice gym. We're not gonna

277
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 2: reveal it, but we've found it and obviously completely tongue

278
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 2: in cheek there and Wemby just had his way with

279
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 2: Warriors down nine there. They end up down as many

280
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 2: as twenty four in the first half. It was seventy

281
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 2: to forty nine at the break, and again Wemby with

282
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 2: twenty seven at that point. For Wimby Yama on a

283
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 2: night where again he ends up going for forty one

284
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 2: twenty seven in the first half, fourteen to the first

285
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 2: six minutes and the Warriors just completely outclassed in this one.

286
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 2: So anyway, Cambi are as we get into the ten

287
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 2: o'clock hour here on KMBR one oh four five FM

Speaker 4: Let's let's get to the chat.

00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 2: and we got a good crowd.

296
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 4: Good crowd for a rainy Wednesday.

297
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 2: I for the life of me, with everything that's been

298
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 2: going on in all the games and filling in for

299
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 2: Papa and all I really couldn't. I actually forgot what day.

300
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 2: I forgot what day it was. I and I remembered

301
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 2: what Steve Kerr always says, which is when you're in

302
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 2: it and it's you know, you're traveling around, you're doing

303
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 2: all these things, and you every day feels like Wednesday.

304
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,120
Speaker 2: So you just I just went to the default. Wednesday

305
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 2: must be a Wednesday. So it is a Wednesday. Let's

306
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 2: get to the chat Kyle. Our first installment here of

307
00:16:56,080 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 2: Kyle's clicks on Dubzot. Max Lopez gets this role in here.

308
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 2: There's nothing that couldn't be discussed the day after Jimmy

309
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 2: went down, let alone halftime. Yeah, it's incredible. I mean

310
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:15,160
Speaker 2: it has felt like, as Steph prepares to be able

311
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 2: to return, that we've sort of been we've sort of

312
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 2: been living the same world night after night after night

313
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:23,879
Speaker 2: after night after night, and we've given the Warriors a

314
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 2: lot of credit for their ability to compete, but at

315
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 2: some point you just get so beaten down or so

316
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 2: shorthanded that you ultimately you ultimately can't necessarily compete.

317
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 4: And it was a hard game, you know.

318
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 2: I feel for the fans and we got Danny who

319
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 2: comes down from Vancouver goes to the game. I feel

320
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 2: like this is and again, what are you gonna do

321
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 2: when you know half the team or two thirds of

322
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 2: the team is injured. But you know, I gotta think

323
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 2: tonight's game specifically probably was a top top five to

324
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 2: eight game on the entire schedule when it came out

325
00:17:57,920 --> 00:17:59,440
Speaker 2: in terms of like I want to come down and

326
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,879
Speaker 2: see when we want to see the Warriors coming down

327
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 2: the home stretch of a season that's gonna lead to

328
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,360
Speaker 2: the playoffs. Like, I gotta think this was a pretty

329
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:11,159
Speaker 2: pretty premier ticket to come and get. And then you

330
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 2: wind up and it's like, oh wow, Like it's it's Malevi.

331
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:18,239
Speaker 2: Leone's playing left handed tonight because his right hand is

332
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 2: so injured with the sprained wrist that he's got to

333
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 2: shoot free throws left handed even as a right handed player.

334
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 2: I mean, it's incredible. And Nate Williams, who wasn't even

335
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 2: on the team two months ago, is in the starting

336
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 2: lineup but he's trying to attack in the pain against

337
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,920
Speaker 2: Wimben Yamba. It has felt, as much as the Warriors

338
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,159
Speaker 2: have competed, kind of like unfortunately a different version of

339
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 2: the same here of late.

340
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 4: All right, let's keep it rolling. In the chat J C.

341
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,120
Speaker 2: Mack, no moral victories, but the fact that Wimby still

342
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 2: needed to score forty one and play twenty eight minutes

343
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,440
Speaker 2: and the Dubs were still fighting is a win.

344
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 4: Is a win. I don't know that I can go

345
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:57,199
Speaker 4: that far with it. But the Warriors did make some runs.

346
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 4: I mean they did. They cut it down to five

347
00:18:58,880 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 4: after they got down seven.

348
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,879
Speaker 2: Team they cut it down I think what to thirteen

349
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:06,160
Speaker 2: or so in the second half.

350
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,440
Speaker 4: But yeah, not a lot of moral of it.

351
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,640
Speaker 2: A moral victory tonight, I think would have been could

352
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 2: they have played it like maybe the Knicks game or

353
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,640
Speaker 2: it's close, you know down the stretch. Could you play

354
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:16,919
Speaker 2: it like one of the you know, some of the

355
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 2: games at home? The first San Antonio game was was

356
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,680
Speaker 2: a leading game into the end of the fourth quarter

357
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 2: going into the All Star break. But yeah, I mean

358
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:29,920
Speaker 2: it's just, you know, not not much to say as

359
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 2: it relates to that digam in the chat. ESPN thought

360
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 2: this game was so bad they went back to Malik

361
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 2: Andrews and the crew to cover the game halftime. Yeah,

362
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:44,200
Speaker 2: it's it's it was a tough night. We're good stee,

363
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 2: we're good seats available San Jose jazz fan rights Or

364
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,520
Speaker 2: was the traffic bad due to the rain? I think

365
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:52,960
Speaker 2: I think it was a little bit of a later

366
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 2: arriving crowd due to the weather. I also think, I

367
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:01,439
Speaker 2: mean there was some no shows potentially tonight as well.

368
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:03,320
Speaker 4: I mean, it's it's the kind of game.

369
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 2: Where, honestly, if you had tickets, it's worth it still

370
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 2: to come and see Wemby, honestly, but if you had tickets,

371
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:12,119
Speaker 2: it's the.

372
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 4: Kind of game where.

373
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 2: Maybe Wemby negates this a little bit, but it would

374
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 2: have been a tough game. I think to give your

375
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,440
Speaker 2: buddy tickets. Like if you're like one of these guys

376
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:26,200
Speaker 2: that's rolling in it and you got the company tickets

377
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:27,920
Speaker 2: and it's and you're like, yeah, you want to go

378
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 2: to the Warrior game tonight.

379
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 4: I can't go. I got Uh it's uh it's April

380
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 4: fools Day. I can't go.

381
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,879
Speaker 2: I always always go party hard on April fools Day.

382
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 4: I can't go to the games. Uh who's playing? Uh?

383
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 2: Oh steps out? Oh Jimmy, Oh, who's Malavila owns? But

384
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,119
Speaker 2: you can see why, like it's a tough ticket. I

385
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 2: think probably to to to give away honestly, but but yeah,

386
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 2: it's still a major draw as five one. Oh Steve

387
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,199
Speaker 2: Wright's nice for those who had tickets really could have

388
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 2: taken the night off against this team. And look, I

389
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,639
Speaker 2: think part of what you like about when Minyama is

390
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 2: the fact that you know he wants to be a

391
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:06,640
Speaker 2: Defensive Player of the Year. He values defense, he's valuing

392
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 2: sort of campaigning for, you know, being in the MVP conversation,

393
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 2: being in the Defensive Player of the Year conversation. He's

394
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 2: somebody that doesn't really want to even though he's had

395
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,360
Speaker 2: some injury concerns to the early part of his career.

396
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,560
Speaker 2: He's not somebody that wants to necessarily necessarily sit out

397
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 2: or or you know, make it a scenario where he

398
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:30,879
Speaker 2: comes off as as a little a little softer, a

399
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,680
Speaker 2: little fragile, like I think, you know, you know anybody

400
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 2: that's got the build that he does. In my goodness,

401
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:41,720
Speaker 2: he plays like a I don't know, a seven footer.

402
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:44,199
Speaker 2: I mean, there has been no one like him in

403
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:48,680
Speaker 2: NBA history, a seven footer that can do the things

404
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:54,119
Speaker 2: that a big does while also basically plays like a guard.

405
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 2: I mean, I know kd Is is up there, and

406
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,399
Speaker 2: you know, he used to like to tell people he

407
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,919
Speaker 2: was six foot twelve because he didn't necessarily want to be.

408
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 2: And I think he was a little south of I

409
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:10,119
Speaker 2: think he was a little south of seven feet. But

410
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,639
Speaker 2: you look at tall players with the skill set and

411
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:17,119
Speaker 2: the handle and the mid range and all of that,

412
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 2: I mean there is I mean, KD is kind of

413
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:23,640
Speaker 2: in a class of his own, but Wemby is unbelievably

414
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 2: in a class of his own as you look at

415
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,359
Speaker 2: at the skill set that he has there. Hey, beer

416
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,439
Speaker 2: man chiming in, I missed the game playing pickup basketball,

417
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 2: but I'm not gonna miss dubzot with j D and Kyle. Well,

418
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 2: we appreciate that. We appreciate that because we're here for you.

419
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,120
Speaker 2: We've been here for you. We've been on the run

420
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 2: since the forty nine ers went down in Seattle. We've

421
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 2: been however, many games straight. That was, which unfortunately coincided

422
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 2: with the night Jimmy Butler went down the first game

423
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,960
Speaker 2: after the Niners get eliminated. Now it feels like it

424
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 2: was about five years ago, but it really was only

425
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:05,639
Speaker 2: about two and a half months ago, back on on

426
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 2: January the nineteenth.

427
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 4: But no we're here for you.

428
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 2: We'll get into the We'll get into Anthony Slater's article,

429
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,640
Speaker 2: by the way, coming up as well. On on on Draymond.

430
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 2: There were some good quotes from Draymond about his future

431
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 2: that I do think are gonna continue to take center

432
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,920
Speaker 2: stage here amid all of the questions that the Warriors

433
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,680
Speaker 2: have as far as who to keep, who to move

434
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 2: on from, how do they get back to trying to

435
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:36,879
Speaker 2: be a contender level for twenty six twenty seven. But yeah, Fazzi,

436
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 2: the injuries, Fazzi, the nine two five, the probably the

437
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 2: most injury team I've seen since the Warriors had to

438
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 2: play Devin George after he fouled out in twenty ten. Yeah,

439
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:51,200
Speaker 2: that's a memory. That's one for the for the bank

440
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 2: back up in port in Portland right at the end

441
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 2: of the at the end of that year. And yeah,

442
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 2: you look at at how to actually, you know, be

443
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 2: so depleted that you have to have somebody come back

444
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 2: and and come into the game and take the technical

445
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:10,320
Speaker 2: foul to be able to play. And yeah, how about

446
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,160
Speaker 2: a night you look at Nate Williams played forty seven

447
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 2: minutes tonight. Pat Spencer played thirty eight minutes tonight. I mean,

448
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:23,920
Speaker 2: some incredible numbers essentially to come out of this one.

449
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 2: But yeah, tough, tough, tough night for the dubs over.

450
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,440
Speaker 2: I wanted to go to this one from Jean real quick.

451
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,359
Speaker 2: How bad is it when Leon's does his impression of

452
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 2: Larry Bird's left handed game for the young guys in

453
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:40,399
Speaker 2: the YouTube YouTube it it's all time film. Gene I

454
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:42,480
Speaker 2: mentioned that at the top of the show, and you're

455
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:46,400
Speaker 2: right if you aren't familiar with Larry Bird in Portland

456
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:50,919
Speaker 2: deciding to play left handed and then and then putting

457
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 2: it on the Blazers in like the mid to late eighties.

458
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,199
Speaker 2: It was a little before my time. I'm watching an

459
00:24:56,280 --> 00:25:00,920
Speaker 2: NBA hoop as well. But again, k Kyle, you're familiar

460
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:04,120
Speaker 2: with that story, right, Don't don't tell me you're not

461
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 2: familiar with that story.

462
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 3: I was, I was, but then my my guy Dave, Yeah, yeah.

463
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, Larry's like, I'm gonna play left handed and then

464
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,520
Speaker 2: did and then was cooking. I mean, think about that

465
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 2: in the context of today, Like think about think about

466
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 2: like if Lebron was like, yeah, I'm only gonna play

467
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 2: left handed, or Steph you I'm only gonna play left

468
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 2: handed tonight. And I mean it's it's absolutely absurd to

469
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,439
Speaker 2: call your shot and then and then be able to

470
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 2: do it. But yeah, YouTube does have all the film

471
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 2: for the for the youngsters. Go back and and and

472
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 2: check it out, uh, to be sure it'll be it'll

473
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,160
Speaker 2: be worth your time. Oh oh sorry, I I double

474
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 2: clicked there. Uh Robert Mason j D before he got injured?

475
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,440
Speaker 4: Did we forget Ralph Sampson?

476
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 2: Okay, right as a seven footer with let me tell

477
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 2: you something and I and again Ralph when Ralph was

478
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 2: great was a little before my time as well. I

479
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,320
Speaker 2: remember as a kid, I remember as a kid growing

480
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:15,239
Speaker 2: up in Sacramento the Ralph Sampson that the Kings had

481
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:21,119
Speaker 2: picked up in a in a horrible trade with the Warriors,

482
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 2: and he could barely run up and down the court

483
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,159
Speaker 2: without having to come out of the game in like

484
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 2: nineteen ninety after he ended up with the Warriors, after

485
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 2: he had obviously had a great start to his career

486
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,640
Speaker 2: with the Rockets. Yeah, I don't think Ralph, and I've

487
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 2: seen a lot of Ralph.

488
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 4: The footage of Ralph. Ralph Sampson didn't have.

489
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,959
Speaker 2: What when Minyama's got as a seven footer, but an

490
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,920
Speaker 2: incredibly skilled seven footer as well. Hell, I'd say Hakeem

491
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,680
Speaker 2: had more and he was not like a he didn't

492
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:57,640
Speaker 2: play like a wing. But Hakeem with the footwork and

493
00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 2: the and the moves and the ability to shoot from

494
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 2: the outside. Again, nobody with no seven seven footers weren't

495
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 2: taken three pointers back then unless it was an emergency

496
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 2: shot clock going down situation. But Hakim's the one guy

497
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,920
Speaker 2: that I think of all the all time bigs and look,

498
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 2: Shack could be dominant too in his own way. Nobody

499
00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:20,679
Speaker 2: would be able with some of the lack of size

500
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 2: and girth that like teams that think they have bigs,

501
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,399
Speaker 2: I mean, go up against two thousand Shack.

502
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:30,919
Speaker 4: I mean two thousand Shack is unbelievable, the.

503
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:35,159
Speaker 2: Size that he had on him and the physicality by

504
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 2: which he played with around the basket.

505
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 4: But I think of all.

506
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 2: Of the let's say great centers and seven footers of

507
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:49,159
Speaker 2: the last thirty five to forty years, I think Hakim's

508
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 2: the one that would have been absolutely, absolutely even more

509
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,359
Speaker 2: dominant than he was in this era with the footwork

510
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,879
Speaker 2: and the defense. He was a soccer player and so

511
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,760
Speaker 2: he had the he had the quick feet, he had

512
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 2: a handle, he would he would put the ball on

513
00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:09,240
Speaker 2: the deck. He would be able to do he he

514
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:13,160
Speaker 2: had it all. He he had it all. Uh Aqima

515
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:17,000
Speaker 2: lajahwan Uh. But yeah, Ralph Sampson's an interesting name. Ian

516
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 2: Jay Stink stop watching Steph every night. But it's probably

517
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 2: a blessing in disguise him missing all these games. Yeah,

518
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,680
Speaker 2: you definitely don't want to have him push too far

519
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 2: at this point.

520
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:28,919
Speaker 4: Uh.

521
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,640
Speaker 2: And and you know, do anything that's maybe gonna risk

522
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 2: next year. And and look, we talked about it the

523
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 2: other night, the fact that Detroit, that Detroit game, when

524
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 2: Steph was out there playing the last one that he

525
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 2: played in, it was not gonna be a tenable situation

526
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 2: for him to continue to have to play. Given the

527
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 2: physicality and given you know, the way teams were just

528
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 2: defending him.

529
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 4: It just it wasn't going to be sustainable. It ultimately wasn't.

530
00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:59,120
Speaker 2: This team wasn't gonna contend for a championship even if

531
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 2: Steph hadn't been able to play a majority of these

532
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 2: last you know, twenty twenty five games that he's now missed.

533
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 2: And I think tonight was the twenty sixth consecutive game

534
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,680
Speaker 2: as well, that he that he missed, But I think

535
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 2: the reality for Steph is, you know, the wear and

536
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 2: tear and not having the wear and tear with this

537
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 2: team unable to win a championship. It's one thing to

538
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 2: have him come back for a handful of games and

539
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 2: the lead up to the play in to maybe have

540
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 2: a shot to get something done.

541
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 4: It's another thing completely.

542
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 2: To have him, you know, slogged through what would have

543
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 2: been the bulk of these last twenty five twenty six games,

544
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 2: because I don't think it would have wound up being

545
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 2: a scenario where they they still I don't think I

546
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 2: think they'd still be nine or ten.

547
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 4: I think they'd still be probably they'd probably be.

548
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 2: In that eight to nine mix at this point, But

549
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 2: that becomes in many ways the ultimate for who for what,

550
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 2: And maybe they wind up getting in a playoff spot.

551
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:02,240
Speaker 4: Hell, maybe they wind up doing it anyway.

552
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean, keeping Steph fresh to where you

553
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 2: feel like you have a fighting chance for next year

554
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 2: is definitely the right call.

555
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:10,239
Speaker 4: Uh.

556
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 2: And and Gene, you said it more concisely than I did. Uh,

557
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 2: he saved his body for next season, assuming the knee

558
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 2: stuff doesn't pop back up with the Runners knee and

559
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,520
Speaker 2: and and all of that. I think you're you're you're

560
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 2: spot on all right, Ato eight KMBR four one five

561
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 2: eight five six two seven. Uh, do you want to

562
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 2: take a time out? Kyle will be good on time.

563
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 2: I know we're right about at that thirty minute mark. Yeah,

564
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 2: let's let's take a let's take a quick time out.

565
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 2: We'll come back, we'll kind of reset everything. We'll get

Speaker 2: thirteen to two Warrior run.

583
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 4: Single digits single digits at that point?

584
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 2: Was it single digits? I don't think it was quite

585
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 2: single digits? Well, oh that was the first quarter run, Okay,

586
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:52,240
Speaker 2: so yes it was. It was down to single digits

587
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,760
Speaker 2: at that point. As the Warriors lose tonight one twenty

588
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,360

00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,240
Speaker 4: Kind of a night here at Chase Center.

595
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 2: And the Warriors just dreadfully undermanned UH in this one

596
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,880
Speaker 2: as they lose UH to the San Antonio Spurs in

597
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 2: the first of the five game homestand with what Cleveland

598
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:32,560
Speaker 2: to follow, and then it sounds like Steph's coming back,

599
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:36,480
Speaker 2: or at least continuing to target the ability to come

600

619
00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 2: come back, that at least gives us a little glimpse

620
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 2: of what next year can be. Yeah, I think, you know,

621
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:48,600
Speaker 2: that's the the optimism. You know, that's the optimistic view

622
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 2: of the situation. John, it's can you get a little

623
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 2: Steph with a little Porzingis? You know, let's see this

624
00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:02,320
Speaker 2: version of Gee Santos as well. It's becoming I feel

625
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 2: like increasingly increasingly difficult more difficult to envision the Warriors

626
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,279
Speaker 2: being able to keep Porzingis and Melton. I know that's

627
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:13,719
Speaker 2: been kind of a theme and a discussion point for

628
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:18,440
Speaker 2: you know, over the last couple of weeks, as Porzingis

629
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 2: has started to play better basketball.

630
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:23,600
Speaker 4: But let's get a look at that. Let's see how

631
00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 4: Pods fits in.

632
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 2: And I think small sample size, bedamned, I do think,

633
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:33,480
Speaker 2: you know, we are starting to wonder, with how well

634
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:38,759
Speaker 2: Porzingis is played, can he be that second guy while

635
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 2: they wait for Jimmy. I still think it's a little

636
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,319
Speaker 2: bit too much of an ask to think that he

637
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,880
Speaker 2: can be the second guy because he's gonna need so

638
00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:48,480
Speaker 2: many back to back nights off.

639
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 4: Because the health albeit.

640
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 2: Managed by the most important man in the Bay Area,

641
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:58,840
Speaker 2: which is Rick Celebrini for a multi for a couple

642
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 2: of reasons, including the way the Sharks game ended tonight

643
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:08,520
Speaker 2: in San Jose with Macklin doing his thing. But I

644
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 2: think that is the one thing that I'm probably the

645
00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:14,520
Speaker 2: most curious to see as far as the Steph Porzingis combo,

646
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 2: because Porzingis has started to make me wonder if, at

647
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,319
Speaker 2: least on the Knights that he can play, even if

648
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:24,080
Speaker 2: it's fifty to fifty five, can he be that number two?

649
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:27,720
Speaker 2: And how can this team function basically with the same

650
00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:33,879
Speaker 2: or similar group Pajemski, Gee, maybe Melton, although he may

651
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 2: not be in the in the conversation, but you are

652
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,600
Speaker 2: going to have that draft pick that's gonna land in

653
00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 2: all likelihood, you know, eleven, twelve or potentially fifteen if

654
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:46,760
Speaker 2: you wind up getting into the playoffs with a couple

655
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 2: of play in tournament wins. So I'm more curious to

656
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,080
Speaker 2: see what does that look like and kind of the

657
00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:57,359
Speaker 2: one two punch of Steph and Porzingis and Gee and

658
00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 2: I think pods to kind of figure some semblance of

659
00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:05,960
Speaker 2: the whole answer to the do you wait for Jimmy

660
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,279
Speaker 2: Butler conversation or do you have to look to be

661
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:12,240
Speaker 2: aggressive to try and go get somebody that can basically

662
00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 2: be that second star while you're waiting for Jimmy Butler

663
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:18,960
Speaker 2: to be able to come back, or do you have

664
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:23,080
Speaker 2: to look to move on. Playing Zapps to be the

665
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:27,160
Speaker 2: second in place of Jimmy is fool's gold. I'm I'm

666
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 2: kind of with you, Ian, I'm with you on that

667
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:34,040
Speaker 2: playing Porzingis to be the number two. I just don't

668
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,319
Speaker 2: think he can be available consistently enough. But we have

669
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:40,120
Speaker 2: seen I mean Porzingis. You got to have somebody that

670
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 2: can dominate the bad teams, and Porzingis has dominated some

671
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:45,960
Speaker 2: of the bad teams that the Warriors have played in

672
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:48,759
Speaker 2: the Washingtons, the Dallas and look, we know that we

673
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,279
Speaker 2: don't necessarily know what those ten teams' names are gonna be,

674
00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:53,480
Speaker 2: but we know there's gonna be ten of them next

675
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,719
Speaker 2: year that are probably gonna be tanking and fighting for

676
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 2: the top draft position. And you want to be able

677
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:00,640
Speaker 2: to be dominant or at least when a majority of

678
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 2: those games against those teams over the course of.

679
00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:08,120
Speaker 4: A long, long.

680
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:12,400
Speaker 2: Season, so that gives you, I think a better shot

681
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 2: in terms of being able to try to avoid the

682
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:20,360
Speaker 2: playing tournament in twenty twenty seven, which I think is

683
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 2: the goal. Good comment there for me, and let's keep

684
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 2: it rolling here Official doctor P. Doc P checking in

685
00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:30,440
Speaker 2: why would the chef return against a team that purposely

686
00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:31,440
Speaker 2: injured him twice?

687
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:33,799
Speaker 4: Hey, I've been asking that question for a week. Kyle

688
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:37,160
Speaker 4: can vouch for me. I think it's just the calendar

689
00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 4: of it.

690
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:39,600
Speaker 2: I think it's just the fact that, Hey, you play

691
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:41,960
Speaker 2: the Spurs tonight, you play.

692
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:45,200
Speaker 4: Cleveland tomorrow, and then you.

693
00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:46,839
Speaker 2: Get two days off to where you can get an

694
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:49,920
Speaker 2: off day for everybody. You can get a practice day Saturday,

695
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:51,759
Speaker 2: let him go through the workout. If he comes out

696
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,799
Speaker 2: of it, he's ready to play, and Sundays the day

697
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:59,080
Speaker 2: and then you're playing Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday. So you get

698
00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:00,600
Speaker 2: a run of three games of a row with an

699
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:04,040
Speaker 2: off day in between. I think it's just the calendar.

700
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:09,640
Speaker 2: And you know, opponent bedamned at that point. It's just

701
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:12,680
Speaker 2: you could be playing Sack, you could be playing Houston,

702
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:16,000
Speaker 2: you can be playing Brooklyn, you could be playing Okac.

703
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:20,440
Speaker 2: It's just the day that Steph is ready is the

704
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 2: day that Steph is ready. But I got to tell you, Doc,

705
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 2: that's been something that's been on my mind. For the

706
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:28,239
Speaker 2: last week, Like, do you really want to bring him

707
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:30,839
Speaker 2: back against Do you really want to bring him back

708
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:35,759
Speaker 2: against the Rockets when the Rockets are one of those

709
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 2: teams that play him so incredibly physically to the point

710
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 2: where it borders on dirty play? Like, I do think

711
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:47,080
Speaker 2: that in some ways is a fair question. And I

712
00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,760
Speaker 2: even go back to you know, look at the last

713
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,880
Speaker 2: game where Steph played on January the thirtieth. It was

714
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 2: against the Pistons, who probably are right there with the

715
00:38:56,719 --> 00:39:01,160
Speaker 2: Rockets in terms of the most physical borderline dirty prety. Uh,

716
00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,719
Speaker 2: you know teams in the entire league, and they both

717
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,480
Speaker 2: have a Thompson twin to boot, So it just I

718
00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,120
Speaker 2: mean it's they are in some ways kind of carbon

719
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:13,560
Speaker 2: copies of each other in terms of the style of

720
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:20,280
Speaker 2: play and the physicality that they bring to the table. Yeah, Max,

721
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:24,879
Speaker 2: why would you bring him back against Amen? It's it's

722
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:28,000
Speaker 2: a fair point. I mean, Sacramento on Tuesday does feel

723
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:32,239
Speaker 2: like the softer landing spot. It does feel like the

724
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:36,480
Speaker 2: the the the opponent that would make the most sense

725
00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:41,720
Speaker 2: with their fleshy, soft defense and lack of concern for winning.

726
00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,040
Speaker 2: Although the Kings did win tonight in Toronto, of all

727
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:51,560
Speaker 2: things go figure with precious Sachua putting up, putting up

728
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,360
Speaker 2: like a Wemby line tonight like twenty eight and nineteen

729
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 2: or something. Uh, don't don't sleep on Sacramento here, h,

730
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:04,920
Speaker 2: don't sleep on Sacramento clucking up their tank, mucking up

731
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:08,839
Speaker 2: their tank job in the final in the final couple

732
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,520
Speaker 2: of weeks of the season, although who knows, who knows

733
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:14,280
Speaker 2: what winds up happening, Steve Kirk got the question pregame.

734
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 2: I'm not sure if we cut it, but Steve got

735
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 2: the question pregame from our buddy Mark Spears about.

736
00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:25,160
Speaker 4: Hey, and he laid it out. He said, Hey, Dallas.

737
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:29,719
Speaker 2: Had the same odds as you last year, and Atlanta

738
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:31,759
Speaker 2: had the same odds as you a couple of years ago.

739
00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:34,160
Speaker 2: Both those teams ended up getting the number one pick

740
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:38,320
Speaker 2: like you. Why has there not been a you know,

741
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 2: a prioritization of basically saying, you know what, this fighting

742
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,160
Speaker 2: to get into the play in and win a couple

743
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:47,319
Speaker 2: of games and bring Steph back. That ain't for us,

744
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:52,400
Speaker 2: that life ain't for us, and so and Steve said, hey,

745
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,959
Speaker 2: it's like we're competitors. Steph wants to play, Steph wants

746
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,799
Speaker 2: to come back. Steph wants an opportunity to get into

747
00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 2: a playoff series and play, and we're all competitors. It's

748
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:04,200
Speaker 2: just not how we roll. It's just not how we operate.

749
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:10,160
Speaker 2: But you know that being said, are you really gonna

750
00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:11,960
Speaker 2: bring him back against a team that's one of the

751
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 2: most physical in the NBA? I mean, we shall see.

752
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:22,279
Speaker 2: Despite the Easter Sunday Steph returns narrative or inside joke

753
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 2: which actually plays our friend Marcus Thompson's gonna be working

754
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:30,400
Speaker 2: on a Steph is Risen column he told us on

755
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:35,920
Speaker 2: on POPA and Silver the other days as he returns

756
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,799
Speaker 2: or at least prepares to return on Sunday. But yeah,

757
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:41,560
Speaker 2: I'm look, I get those concerns. And let me tell you,

758
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:43,799
Speaker 2: if he winds up going playing against Houston and gets

759
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:48,080
Speaker 2: hurt in that game, look out that that would not

760
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:52,239
Speaker 2: be not be a pretty pretty pretty pretty scenario. All right,

761
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:54,239
Speaker 2: let's keep it rolling. Who's gonna be available to play

762
00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:58,879
Speaker 2: tomorrow night? My read on tomorrow Fozzy is Melton's back,

763
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:04,359
Speaker 2: porzingis is beat at, Peyton is back. Guie Santos has

764
00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:08,440
Speaker 2: the potential to be back tomorrow night as well. Did

765
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:11,319
Speaker 2: I leave anybody out? Kyle, did I leave anybody out?

766
00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:14,440
Speaker 2: I got my little cheat sheet here. As far as

767
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 2: I think he's steps out, Jimmy's out, Moody's out obviously,

768
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:26,640
Speaker 2: Horford is out, Quinton Post is out as well.

769
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:30,239
Speaker 4: I would say those five for sure are out for.

770
00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:35,400
Speaker 2: Tomorrow U and then yeah, I think porzingis, Peyton, Gee,

771
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:40,200
Speaker 2: and Melton are all back for tomorrow and then we'll see,

772
00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,560
Speaker 2: you know, do they do they do they give Draymond

773
00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:47,600
Speaker 2: the night off or not? I think Draymond could potentially

774
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:51,840
Speaker 2: sit uh in tomorrow. He almost wanted to sit tonight.

775
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:52,839
Speaker 2: I think that's a good call.

776
00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:53,320
Speaker 4: Digham.

777
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:55,759
Speaker 2: I was thinking the same thing, Do you do you

778
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:59,880
Speaker 2: maybe sit Draymond tomorrow after you know, playing through it tonight?

779
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:03,239
Speaker 2: Basically playing through it tonight because they needed him to

780
00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:05,400
Speaker 2: play through it tonight and and just didn't have the

781
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 2: just didn't have the bodies to be able to to

782
00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:12,319
Speaker 2: be able to get through a night like tonight where

783
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:16,319
Speaker 2: they only had legitimately nine healthy and active players.

784
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,680
Speaker 4: Uh so, yeah, those are the guys. Uh, do do

785
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:21,200
Speaker 4: we want to go to? No cap? Do we want

786
00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:22,719
Speaker 4: to go to let's go.

787
00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 3: To Yeah, we'll go to him after ian Ian.

788
00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:28,000
Speaker 2: First and then do we want to set up the

789
00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:30,000
Speaker 2: article first a little bit, or do we want to

790
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:31,240
Speaker 2: we'll use we'll use.

791
00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:32,279
Speaker 4: No cap to get into it.

792
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:35,719
Speaker 2: Uh eight to eight K and B are by the way,

793
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:39,160
Speaker 2: four one five eight five six two seven. Uh the

794
00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:44,080
Speaker 2: number here to to jump in. Uh dubzot with j

795
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 2: d here on the Sports Leader. I honestly think Steph

796
00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:49,040
Speaker 2: is really close to one hundred percent, or he wouldn't

797
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:49,560
Speaker 2: come back.

798
00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:53,800
Speaker 4: I agree with that, Ian, although I do think.

799
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:56,400
Speaker 2: And Steph has kind of laid this out uh in

800
00:43:56,400 --> 00:44:00,359
Speaker 2: in his comments to ESPN over the last twenty four

801
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 2: to forty eight hours. It's the fact that it's the

802
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:10,399
Speaker 2: fact that it's a tricky injury. It's an injury where

803
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:13,120
Speaker 2: you think you can be over it. And Steph laid

804
00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:17,840
Speaker 2: out the fact that he's attempted to go through the

805
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:22,080
Speaker 2: workouts that would basically clear him, and in the lead

806
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:24,080
Speaker 2: up to those workouts he would come out of it

807
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:27,360
Speaker 2: soar and then that would lead to, all right, you

808
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,160
Speaker 2: got to give it more time to calm down. You

809
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,440
Speaker 2: got to give it more time to calm down. And

810
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:34,640
Speaker 2: so I think there is a concern like you want

811
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:36,680
Speaker 2: to make sure you give enough time to where he

812
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:39,560
Speaker 2: can go out and check all these boxes in terms

813
00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:42,920
Speaker 2: of individual work and three on three and five on

814
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:46,160
Speaker 2: five and then competitive five on five and have him

815
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:49,280
Speaker 2: pass and check all those boxes to a point where

816
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:53,600
Speaker 2: he's not gonna actually get out there in an NBA

817
00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:55,959
Speaker 2: game and go, oh damn, the runners bat My knees

818
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:59,200
Speaker 2: are sore, because if that happens, it's over. So I

819
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:01,760
Speaker 2: do think, and I know there's also been some question

820
00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:07,640
Speaker 2: as to like, could Steph be playing, you know, through

821
00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:11,359
Speaker 2: this if it were a different situation, like let's say

822
00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:16,280
Speaker 2: Jimmy was healthy and this team was battling for sixth

823
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:21,839
Speaker 2: and you know our seventh, would Steph be playing? I'm

824
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:24,880
Speaker 2: not so sure he would be, to be perfectly honest,

825
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:30,000
Speaker 2: at this point. So is he close to one hundred, yes,

826
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:34,400
Speaker 2: But I also think that the more important point is

827
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:38,160
Speaker 2: that there just has not been the soreness pop up

828
00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:41,640
Speaker 2: as he's ramped up the different levels of his his

829
00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:45,200
Speaker 2: progression toward toward being able to return.

830
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:46,840
Speaker 4: All right, let's continue on.

831
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:50,799
Speaker 2: The article today told me this from No Cap and

832
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:53,480
Speaker 2: we'll get to the Anthony Slater piece, and this is

833
00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:56,160
Speaker 2: a nice segue into it. The article told me that

834
00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:58,439
Speaker 2: Green could do no wrong in Steph's size. I don't

835
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:00,960
Speaker 2: care what he does. I don't look at him the

836
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:06,200
Speaker 2: same as for the organization to resign Green and bring

837
00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:10,239
Speaker 2: the same team back as ASEN nine. Yeah, I mean

838
00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:16,840
Speaker 2: there is Look, those two are in different positions in

839
00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:24,000
Speaker 2: terms of their overall standing in NBA history, right Like

840
00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:26,640
Speaker 2: Steph is an all time great, maybe a top five

841
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:28,200
Speaker 2: all time player.

842
00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:31,080
Speaker 4: Draymond is a warrior.

843
00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:34,640
Speaker 2: Legend and all time defensive player, a future Hall of

844
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:38,560
Speaker 2: Famer in his own right. But those two are on

845
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:42,279
Speaker 2: different tiers in terms of the land. But there is

846
00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:47,560
Speaker 2: no question that Steph and Draymond, in Steph's eyes specifically,

847
00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:51,160
Speaker 2: are joined at the hit in terms of the successes

848
00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:55,040
Speaker 2: that they've been able to accomplish together. The good, the bad,

849
00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:59,359
Speaker 2: the sometimes sad, the ugly. I mean, they've been through

850
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:04,000
Speaker 2: it all together. And Steph values Draymond, I think more

851
00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:09,480
Speaker 2: than probably any other player in the NBA values Draymond.

852
00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:12,240
Speaker 2: If you were to conduct a poll or a survey

853
00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:18,640
Speaker 2: or an open questionnaire as it relates to impact and importance.

854
00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 2: That being said that the question and I wanted to

855
00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:25,120
Speaker 2: get into some of the some of the quotes as

856
00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:28,160
Speaker 2: well as a great piece check it out at ESPN

857
00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:29,560
Speaker 2: Anthony Anthony.

858
00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:31,080
Speaker 4: Slater with the writing there.

859
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:33,880
Speaker 2: We're not going to get into all of it, but

860
00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:37,600
Speaker 2: I do think the big question is contract as it

861
00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:40,480
Speaker 2: relates to it. The question is he's under contract for

862
00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:45,080
Speaker 2: twenty seven million for next year. And look number one

863
00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:47,040
Speaker 2: thing that popped up in here, and I'm going to

864
00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:54,040
Speaker 2: quote from Slater's story. Slater writes, Greenex has accepted letting

865
00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:56,840
Speaker 2: Kerr and general manager Mike Dunleavy know that he's willing

866
00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:59,719
Speaker 2: to move to a bench roll if necessary, while still

867
00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:04,440
Speaker 2: believing plenty of basketball remains ahead. And Draymond quote, it

868
00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:06,959
Speaker 2: doesn't have to look a certain way for me. I

869
00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:10,439
Speaker 2: fear ever becoming one of those guys that everybody else

870
00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:14,719
Speaker 2: knows their time is up, but me, I just never

871
00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:17,880
Speaker 2: want to be that guy. Ego and entitlement can very

872
00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:21,000
Speaker 2: much lead you to be that guy. So Draymond is

873
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:25,319
Speaker 2: acknowledging first and foremost in the piece that he is.

874
00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:27,799
Speaker 2: He understands he's not the same guy that he used

875
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:32,479
Speaker 2: to be. He's willing to come off the bench, He's

876
00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:36,440
Speaker 2: willing to have a lesser role, although still believing that

877
00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:39,879
Speaker 2: he can be impactful in the biggest moments. If that's

878
00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:43,799
Speaker 2: where Draymond Green's head's at, which I believe, and I've

879
00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:46,680
Speaker 2: said on this show, you know it those who listen

880
00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:49,239
Speaker 2: and watch here Dubzot with JD on The Sports Leader

881
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:53,000
Speaker 2: each and every night, I don't think Draymond is where

882
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:55,440
Speaker 2: Clay was. And by the way, he was kind of

883
00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:58,600
Speaker 2: and he was not calling out Clay, but I think

884
00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:01,520
Speaker 2: as he was. As I'm reading that quote, I'm thinking

885
00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:04,600
Speaker 2: of Clay. I'm thinking of Carmelo Anthony, I'm thinking of

886
00:49:04,680 --> 00:49:09,200
Speaker 2: Russell Westbrook. I'm thinking of others who have just had

887
00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:14,560
Speaker 2: an out and out refusal to acknowledge their diminishing skills

888
00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:19,000
Speaker 2: as they they get to be an older age.

889
00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:20,080
Speaker 4: And so.

890
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:25,680
Speaker 2: I think the fact that Draymon is not insane to

891
00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:28,719
Speaker 2: believe that he ain't the same guy he's been. I

892
00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:32,319
Speaker 2: mean to me, that's a large part of figuring out

893
00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:37,520
Speaker 2: what the proper role is for Draymon, you know, next year,

894
00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:39,040
Speaker 2: and so.

895
00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:41,880
Speaker 4: That that is first and foremost.

896
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:45,960
Speaker 2: The next part of it is interesting, and you know,

897
00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:50,360
Speaker 2: Slayer wrote about the fact that despite the denials, Draymond's

898
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:54,359
Speaker 2: name was included in the concepts of trades that would

899
00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:56,440
Speaker 2: have gotten to be honest. He had to be because

900
00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:58,359
Speaker 2: they were made. They were telling everybody under the sun

901
00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:02,880
Speaker 2: that Jimmy Butler wasn't going to be so, you know,

902
00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:06,839
Speaker 2: Draymond with with you know, kinda kind of the all

903
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:12,680
Speaker 2: timer in terms of, uh, you know, I understand this business.

904
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:17,480
Speaker 2: I understand like, Yo, this is Giannis. They're not just

905
00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:19,920
Speaker 2: gonna trade me for a bag of peanuts. It would

906
00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:22,760
Speaker 2: would have almost been a point of pride. I'll be honest,

907
00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:24,680
Speaker 2: though I didn't want to play with Milwaukee, which again

908
00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:26,439
Speaker 2: I don't really care about Draymond not wanted to play

909
00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:27,719
Speaker 2: for Milwaukee.

910
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:31,280
Speaker 4: But and we knew this two months ago.

911
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:36,480
Speaker 2: The fact that like Draymond, Draymond, I think if he

912
00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:38,719
Speaker 2: was getting traded, you are I always go back to

913
00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:41,600
Speaker 2: what Mike Kruko says, I'm gonna bring in a little giant.

914
00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:46,359
Speaker 2: Mike Cruco has always throughout the years said that who

915
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:51,200
Speaker 2: you're traded for is a great indictment of the player

916
00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:53,600
Speaker 2: you are, right you want to be traded for, Like

917
00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:55,960
Speaker 2: if you're traded for somebody awesome, Like if you're a

918
00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:57,799
Speaker 2: prospect and a deal that goes on to be a

919
00:50:57,800 --> 00:51:01,720
Speaker 2: really good player that gets traded for, or a superstar player,

920
00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:03,839
Speaker 2: you just happen to be younger and on the come up,

921
00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:07,640
Speaker 2: Like that's that's an awesome amount of respect. Like if

922
00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:11,160
Speaker 2: you're in a deal for a stud that's an incredible

923
00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:13,840
Speaker 2: amount of of And I think you know to that

924
00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:17,719
Speaker 2: extent also, like yeah, and I think we know the

925
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:22,720
Speaker 2: Warriors would only trade Draymon for a certain level of player.

926
00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:26,040
Speaker 2: Joe Lacob has said it in the last month with

927
00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:30,160
Speaker 2: tk Tim kaal Kami of The SEF Standard on his podcast, like,

928
00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:32,520
Speaker 2: you don't just trade Draymond for anybody.

929
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:34,400
Speaker 4: So there's the understanding.

930
00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:39,920
Speaker 2: I think that Draymond knows that, you know, it's not

931
00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:44,680
Speaker 2: just gonna be anybody. The other interesting component to it

932
00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:48,879
Speaker 2: is the notion of Draymond being under contract next year

933
00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:51,839
Speaker 2: for twenty seven million, but also being open to.

934
00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:55,640
Speaker 4: Being open to.

935
00:51:57,480 --> 00:52:01,520
Speaker 2: Signing, you know, opting out and then re signing for

936
00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:04,280
Speaker 2: more years and maybe getting more money than the twenty

937
00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:07,000
Speaker 2: seven but having it spread over three years. There were

938
00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:11,040
Speaker 2: some reports that the Warriors were not welcome to doing that.

939
00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:13,840
Speaker 2: I think they have to look at doing that because

940
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:17,120
Speaker 2: I think it's their best, if not only, pathway to

941
00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:20,759
Speaker 2: be able to keep Porzingis and Melton or to keep

942
00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:25,040
Speaker 2: Porzingis and add somebody else from the outside. In terms

943
00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:28,319
Speaker 2: of the non taxpayer mid level exception, I think it

944
00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:33,000
Speaker 2: works in the Warriors' best interest to lessen Draymond's number

945
00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:36,879
Speaker 2: from twenty seven million to thirteen or somewhere in that

946
00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:39,480
Speaker 2: range for next year, to basically cut it in half.

947
00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:45,239
Speaker 2: I think Draymon's open to that. You are gonna wind

948
00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:47,799
Speaker 2: up paying Draymond more in total though to do that.

949
00:52:48,640 --> 00:52:51,480
Speaker 2: Otherwise Draymond can just opt in and make twenty seven million.

950
00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:54,560
Speaker 2: But again the back and forth and the debate back

951
00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:57,719
Speaker 2: and forth between Draymond and the front office, and the

952
00:52:57,760 --> 00:53:03,640
Speaker 2: front office in Draymond as it relates to two. Draymond

953
00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:05,880
Speaker 2: wants to be in the Warriors next year. In my opinion,

954
00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:10,080
Speaker 2: above everything else. What's the best path toward him being

955
00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:11,239
Speaker 2: on the Warriors next year?

956
00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:16,759
Speaker 4: To me, it's taking less.

957
00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:20,400
Speaker 2: If he takes less over three years or two years,

958
00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:23,319
Speaker 2: but they knock that cap number down for next year,

959
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:26,880
Speaker 2: that benefits his ability to stay with the Warriors. To me,

960
00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:29,120
Speaker 2: it almost to me, it almost acts as a no

961
00:53:29,239 --> 00:53:34,680
Speaker 2: trade clause for next year at least now, maybe not

962
00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:38,440
Speaker 2: beyond that. I think you could make the case that

963
00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:42,680
Speaker 2: if he's making twenty seven million, your best course of

964
00:53:42,719 --> 00:53:48,400
Speaker 2: action would be to try to move him in some

965
00:53:48,480 --> 00:53:50,200
Speaker 2: kind of a deal to bring a better player back.

966
00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:51,520
Speaker 4: Draymond knows this.

967
00:53:52,239 --> 00:53:54,640
Speaker 2: Draymond wants to be with the war But Draymon can

968
00:53:54,719 --> 00:53:57,719
Speaker 2: threaten to opt out and just leave. So if the

969
00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:00,280
Speaker 2: Warriors do want to hold onto the twenty seven millillion

970
00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:04,200
Speaker 2: as a trade ship, and Draymond doesn't want to be

971
00:54:04,280 --> 00:54:07,440
Speaker 2: traded to this place or that I don't want to

972
00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:09,080
Speaker 2: play for Milwaukee.

973
00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:11,160
Speaker 4: He can opt out and then you can't trade him.

974
00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:13,359
Speaker 2: If he opts out, you can't trade him without his

975
00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:16,080
Speaker 2: blessing in terms of resigning, and then it becomes a

976
00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:18,080
Speaker 2: sign and trade, and then it becomes more difficult to

977
00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:20,520
Speaker 2: be able to to move him, and.

978
00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:21,120
Speaker 4: All of that.

979
00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:25,600
Speaker 2: Chris Cash in the seven oh seven three for thirty

980
00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:28,160
Speaker 2: six Warriors don't want to don't want any money on

981
00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:31,320
Speaker 2: the books though in twenty seven, you could pay Draymond

982
00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:37,319
Speaker 2: Green twelve million dollars a year in twenty seven, twenty

983
00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:40,160
Speaker 2: eight and twenty eight twenty nine, and maybe you even

984
00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:42,640
Speaker 2: make it a partial guarantee in twenty eight to twenty nine.

985
00:54:43,080 --> 00:54:43,799
Speaker 4: Maybe it's like.

986
00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:47,399
Speaker 2: Three and thirty six but half of the thirteen, half

987
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:49,839
Speaker 2: of the you know, six of the twelve is guaranteed

988
00:54:49,880 --> 00:54:52,960
Speaker 2: for the final year, So it's really three and thirty

989
00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:56,799
Speaker 2: in terms of like what the guaranteed money would be like.

990
00:54:56,840 --> 00:55:00,440
Speaker 2: There are ways you can finagle it to be basically

991
00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:06,800
Speaker 2: make it work like it can be done at this point.

992
00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:10,480
Speaker 2: I think that benefits the Warriors more, Kyle, what do

993
00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:13,080
Speaker 2: you think? And I want to get to the people

994
00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:15,640
Speaker 2: as well in the chat. But there is a game

995
00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:19,640
Speaker 2: of chicken that can go both ways because.

996
00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:22,560
Speaker 4: Draymon holds the cards in that.

997
00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:25,680
Speaker 2: Draymond, if he feels it's in his best interest, can

998
00:55:25,719 --> 00:55:27,800
Speaker 2: look to move on elsewhere and kind of leave the

999
00:55:27,840 --> 00:55:30,600
Speaker 2: Warriors holding the bag a little bit. But again, we

1000
00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:32,920
Speaker 2: know Draymond doesn't really want to do that. I think

1001
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:36,720
Speaker 2: Draymond wants to be here to continue, if not finish

1002
00:55:36,760 --> 00:55:37,240
Speaker 2: his career.

1003
00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:45,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think. I think for if Draymon ops out

1004
00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:51,160
Speaker 3: and signs yea a larger or an extension for more

1005
00:55:51,239 --> 00:55:54,239
Speaker 3: money but less per year, I think that is more

1006
00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:58,319
Speaker 3: beneficial to both sides because well, yeah, I'm jad you

1007
00:55:58,400 --> 00:56:01,160
Speaker 3: just laid it out one. Yeah, I don't think Draymond

1008
00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:04,480
Speaker 3: really wants to play anywhere, And he said, really, the

1009
00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:06,480
Speaker 3: only two teams that he's kind of interested are the

1010
00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:12,239
Speaker 3: LA teams. Those are the only two teams. And so

1011
00:56:12,320 --> 00:56:15,000
Speaker 3: I think Draymond wants to be a Warrior, and he

1012
00:56:15,120 --> 00:56:21,200
Speaker 3: still gets paid thirty six compared to twenty seven, even

1013
00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:24,000
Speaker 3: though that thirty six is spread out through three years.

1014
00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:27,040
Speaker 3: Because here here's the other thing. If he gets traded

1015
00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:31,239
Speaker 3: and that contract expires, who's going to pay him more

1016
00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:34,200
Speaker 3: than the vetmin? Like, I don't think a lot of

1017
00:56:34,239 --> 00:56:38,600
Speaker 3: teams are lining up to pay Draymond Green double digit

1018
00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:42,799
Speaker 3: millions of dollars. And then the reason why it's beneficial

1019
00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:45,839
Speaker 3: to the Warriors is, yeah, you lower that cap hit

1020
00:56:45,920 --> 00:56:47,080
Speaker 3: for twenty seven.

1021
00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:51,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, you need to lower that cap hit. I think

1022
00:56:52,080 --> 00:56:57,000
Speaker 2: as well, and I think you also need to It

1023
00:56:57,040 --> 00:57:00,640
Speaker 2: also is beneficial for Draymond to add the more guaranteed

1024
00:57:00,680 --> 00:57:03,120
Speaker 2: money to the deal to where you're right, if he

1025
00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:06,120
Speaker 2: does sustain some kind of an injury or something like that,

1026
00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:08,279
Speaker 2: it would be money that basically would be gone. And

1027
00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:10,840
Speaker 2: you're right, he probably would be a VET minimum, So

1028
00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:14,279
Speaker 2: that would be anywhere between let's say ten and let's

1029
00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:17,880
Speaker 2: say thirteen and like twenty million. That would be you know,

1030
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,160
Speaker 2: extra money that he basically would get. And look, you

1031
00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:23,640
Speaker 2: could always move Draymond if he's making if Draymon ain't

1032
00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:27,120
Speaker 2: gonna kill you in those future years, if he's making

1033
00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:30,560
Speaker 2: thirteen million dollars ten to you know, ten to thirteen million,

1034
00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:33,880
Speaker 2: you can always include somebody as salaries continue to go

1035
00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:37,080
Speaker 2: up as salary filler in terms of that.

1036
00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:39,040
Speaker 4: So what does Draymond ultimately do.

1037
00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:44,360
Speaker 2: Draymond also did say that he feels better defensively than

1038
00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:48,520
Speaker 2: he ever has. The numbers won't show it with steals

1039
00:57:48,520 --> 00:57:52,520
Speaker 2: and blocks, which is what people look at, but in

1040
00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:56,440
Speaker 2: a different way he does it. He says, I can't

1041
00:57:56,520 --> 00:57:58,920
Speaker 2: get the block shot all the time anymore, but I

1042
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:02,080
Speaker 2: can cover it. I may not come up with the steal,

1043
00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:07,960
Speaker 2: but I make sure that the action is gridlocked. The

1044
00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:10,760
Speaker 2: other thing, and our buddy Nocap brought this up in

1045
00:58:10,800 --> 00:58:13,840
Speaker 2: the chat. Were the Steph quotes and then Steph, I mean,

1046
00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:17,080
Speaker 2: he says, you know, Jimmy got hurt, my knee blows up.

1047
00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:19,320
Speaker 2: Didn't think I'd be out this long. But the biggest

1048
00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:22,720
Speaker 2: thing with Draymond is he's been available. I just hope

1049
00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:25,480
Speaker 2: there's something to play for at the end that makes

1050
00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:28,080
Speaker 2: it all worth it. That's the part of the reason

1051
00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:30,640
Speaker 2: I want to come back is to see this through

1052
00:58:31,680 --> 00:58:35,280
Speaker 2: in terms of trying to basically come back and play

1053
00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:37,880
Speaker 2: with Draymond, to.

1054
00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:41,440
Speaker 4: Be able to close out, to close out this season.

1055
00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:43,960
Speaker 4: So what's the best course of action for drama.

1056
00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:46,360
Speaker 2: I know there are some that are like, let it

1057
00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:49,440
Speaker 2: play out, you need him gone after twenty seven I

1058
00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:51,720
Speaker 2: think the most beneficial thing would be for the Warriors

1059
00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:53,400
Speaker 2: to have him opt out and then you bring him

1060
00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:57,160
Speaker 2: back at a lesser number, because I do think they

1061
00:58:57,200 --> 00:58:59,919
Speaker 2: prefer to have him on the roster than not next year.

1062
00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:04,480
Speaker 2: I do believe that although I will say at twenty

1063
00:59:04,520 --> 00:59:09,520
Speaker 2: seven million, it it, I think there would be more

1064
00:59:09,600 --> 00:59:14,360
Speaker 2: benefit to trading him than not if he's gonna be

1065
00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:16,479
Speaker 2: making twenty seven million. All right, let's get to the chat.

1066
00:59:16,520 --> 00:59:18,560
Speaker 2: Eight to eight knbr four five eight to eight five

1067
00:59:18,600 --> 00:59:21,880
Speaker 2: six two seven, Kyle, We're gonna go. Let's go till

1068
00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:24,640
Speaker 2: about the top of the hour here, and then we'll

1069
00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:27,200
Speaker 2: take a time out, we'll come back and we'll kind

1070
00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:29,760
Speaker 2: of wrap things up with a with the sounds of

1071
00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:33,840
Speaker 2: dubzot at the top of the eleven o'clock hour before

1072
00:59:33,880 --> 00:59:35,840
Speaker 2: we call it a night. Here from Harmonic and Thrive

1073
00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:40,360
Speaker 2: City digam rights. Trading Draymond will include attached picks only

1074
00:59:40,400 --> 00:59:44,800
Speaker 2: way anyone is taking him. Yeah, but he is a

1075
00:59:44,840 --> 00:59:48,480
Speaker 2: salary filler to bring back a player who has a

1076
00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:51,280
Speaker 2: greater salary, and that is a that is an important

1077
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:54,720
Speaker 2: point though, that you bring up that that should be noted. Yes,

1078
00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:58,560
Speaker 2: trading Draymond, if the Warriors were to look to do that,

1079
00:59:59,200 --> 01:00:03,280
Speaker 2: it would be in a trade for a bigger salaried player.

1080
01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:05,600
Speaker 2: I'm not sure it would necessarily be the I mean,

1081
01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:08,520
Speaker 2: it would be yianness if it winds up being gi honest.

1082
01:00:08,880 --> 01:00:11,360
Speaker 4: That that would be attainable. But yeah, it would be.

1083
01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:14,400
Speaker 2: Honest and four picks and young players and Draymond and

1084
01:00:14,560 --> 01:00:17,520
Speaker 2: salary match type players. If the Warriors were going to

1085
01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:20,320
Speaker 2: get back into that mix, if the Warriors are going

1086
01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:23,000
Speaker 2: to trade for a thirty five million dollar player or

1087
01:00:23,480 --> 01:00:25,320
Speaker 2: or a forty you know, if the Warriors were gonna

1088
01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:28,400
Speaker 2: trade for Michael Porter junior, it would have to be

1089
01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:31,640
Speaker 2: Draymond at twenty seven plus picks plus.

1090
01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:33,520
Speaker 4: And I'm just using that as an example.

1091
01:00:33,560 --> 01:00:37,240
Speaker 2: I'm not advocating necessarily specifically for that, but that if

1092
01:00:37,240 --> 01:00:38,880
Speaker 2: they were going to trade for a lesser player. If

1093
01:00:38,880 --> 01:00:42,840
Speaker 2: they were going to trade at this point for Trey Murphy,

1094
01:00:42,920 --> 01:00:46,600
Speaker 2: it would be Draymond plus three picks in all likelihood

1095
01:00:47,280 --> 01:00:50,720
Speaker 2: plus young players. Plus Draymond's not going to the Pelicans

1096
01:00:50,720 --> 01:00:52,840
Speaker 2: because he probably doesn't want to play with the Pelicans,

1097
01:00:52,880 --> 01:00:56,480
Speaker 2: so he'd have to end up going somewhere else at

1098
01:00:56,480 --> 01:00:59,920
Speaker 2: that point. So fair to bring up, and I I

1099
01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:04,320
Speaker 2: appreciate it. It's more than accurate. I'm down to see

1100
01:01:04,400 --> 01:01:08,240
Speaker 2: Lebron and Curry at this point. Fitt I'm with you, Robert.

1101
01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:12,160
Speaker 2: I'm down to see like Lebron coming to the Warriors

1102
01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:15,520
Speaker 2: for next year, Kawhi coming to the Warriors for next year.

1103
01:01:16,320 --> 01:01:19,919
Speaker 4: I mean those things. Those things would.

1104
01:01:19,680 --> 01:01:22,760
Speaker 2: In the short term make the Warriors better and give

1105
01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:24,720
Speaker 2: them a greater shot at trying to pry open the

1106
01:01:24,760 --> 01:01:25,720
Speaker 2: contention window.

1107
01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:29,000
Speaker 4: It's why they're being brought up. It also is the

1108
01:01:29,120 --> 01:01:29,440
Speaker 4: kind of.

1109
01:01:29,400 --> 01:01:35,120
Speaker 2: Moves that wouldn't necessarily cost the Warriors draft capital at

1110
01:01:35,120 --> 01:01:37,919
Speaker 2: the level like some of these other moves would would

1111
01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:43,080
Speaker 2: potentially cost them. Let's keep it rolling here. Warriors should

1112
01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:45,840
Speaker 2: move off of Jimmy for immediate help. Can't expect Steph

1113
01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:48,680
Speaker 2: or Porzingis to play every day at this point.

1114
01:01:49,800 --> 01:01:54,280
Speaker 4: To this point, everything that I've heard Chris and thanks.

1115
01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:55,720
Speaker 2: Chris Cash in the seven oh seven, one of our

1116
01:01:55,760 --> 01:01:59,920
Speaker 2: newbies here who's been a great addition, tremendous addition to

1117
01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:05,040
Speaker 2: theot YouTube chat here on the Sports Leader. Everything I've

1118
01:02:05,080 --> 01:02:09,040
Speaker 2: heard and read they want to keep Jimmy and think

1119
01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:11,360
Speaker 2: Jimmy can come back and be an impactful player in

1120
01:02:11,360 --> 01:02:15,560
Speaker 2: the second half of next year. Do the Warriors need

1121
01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:20,560
Speaker 2: to examine the prospect of looking to move off of Jimmy. Yes, yes,

1122
01:02:21,240 --> 01:02:24,880
Speaker 2: they have to examine everything that that's the thing like,

1123
01:02:25,120 --> 01:02:26,880
Speaker 2: and we're gonna do some shows coming up here in

1124
01:02:26,920 --> 01:02:29,840
Speaker 2: the aftermath of this season whenever the Warriors go out,

1125
01:02:29,840 --> 01:02:33,360
Speaker 2: whether it's the playing or the first round against OKC, like,

1126
01:02:33,880 --> 01:02:39,320
Speaker 2: the Warriors have to do a hard examination of all

1127
01:02:39,360 --> 01:02:43,240
Speaker 2: of these things in terms of do you move Jimmy,

1128
01:02:43,360 --> 01:02:44,880
Speaker 2: do you not? Do you move Draymon?

1129
01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:47,400
Speaker 4: Do you not? Do you re sign Draymond? Do you not?

1130
01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:48,920
Speaker 4: What do you do with Melton?

1131
01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:51,920
Speaker 2: Is there a point at which and we've talked about it,

1132
01:02:51,960 --> 01:02:55,120
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm to the point now Melton or persingis

1133
01:02:55,800 --> 01:02:56,720
Speaker 2: you got to pick one.

1134
01:02:57,640 --> 01:02:59,520
Speaker 4: If you could only have one, who would it be.

1135
01:03:00,640 --> 01:03:01,320
Speaker 4: It's gotta be.

1136
01:03:02,120 --> 01:03:04,280
Speaker 2: I asked Marcus Thompson the question the other day on

1137
01:03:04,320 --> 01:03:07,320
Speaker 2: Pop and so it's gotta be Porzingis at this point.

1138
01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:11,560
Speaker 2: You gotta keep the big because Melton is somebody that's

1139
01:03:11,560 --> 01:03:14,200
Speaker 2: probably gonna get enough offers in other areas to where

1140
01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:16,680
Speaker 2: you might have to let them walk if you can't

1141
01:03:16,760 --> 01:03:18,400
Speaker 2: get to a point where you can offer him the

1142
01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:20,320
Speaker 2: non taxpayer mid level. And if you offer him the

1143
01:03:20,360 --> 01:03:23,560
Speaker 2: non taxpayer mid level, then then you're completely out on

1144
01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:26,960
Speaker 2: Lebron and Kawhi in all likelihood unless you can make

1145
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:29,680
Speaker 2: some kind of a trade, and you're also potentially out

1146
01:03:29,680 --> 01:03:33,280
Speaker 2: on Porzingis, who continues to play his number for next

1147
01:03:33,360 --> 01:03:35,919
Speaker 2: year up from where it was three weeks ago, which

1148
01:03:35,960 --> 01:03:39,000
Speaker 2: was probably a minimum salary type type player himself.

1149
01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:41,120
Speaker 4: But they gotta look at all of it. They gotta

1150
01:03:41,120 --> 01:03:42,640
Speaker 4: look at moving off a Jimmy. They gotta look and

1151
01:03:42,680 --> 01:03:43,400
Speaker 4: move off and Draymond.

1152
01:03:43,400 --> 01:03:46,840
Speaker 2: They gotta look at basically everything that's not tearing it

1153
01:03:46,880 --> 01:03:50,200
Speaker 2: down to the studs and trading Steph Curry is what

1154
01:03:50,240 --> 01:03:52,880
Speaker 2: the Warriors. They gotta look at, trading pods, they gotta

1155
01:03:52,920 --> 01:03:58,480
Speaker 2: look at trading one pick, two picks, three picks, four picks, swaps,

1156
01:03:59,360 --> 01:04:01,720
Speaker 2: They gotta look everything, and he got to be aggressive

1157
01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:05,320
Speaker 2: in terms of trying to maximize that final year of

1158
01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:08,880
Speaker 2: Steph and his ability to be It may not be

1159
01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:10,560
Speaker 2: the final year of Stephan in the NBA or the

1160
01:04:10,600 --> 01:04:13,560
Speaker 2: final year of Steph with the Warriors, but in all

1161
01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:15,640
Speaker 2: likelihood could be the final year and we're seeing a

1162
01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:18,040
Speaker 2: little bit of it with the injury bug tonight. It

1163
01:04:18,080 --> 01:04:22,160
Speaker 2: could be the final year of Steph in terms of

1164
01:04:23,480 --> 01:04:27,280
Speaker 2: being able to play consistently at the elite level that.

1165
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:29,680
Speaker 4: We've all grown to love.

1166
01:04:29,840 --> 01:04:34,040
Speaker 2: And note from him going back to you know, a

1167
01:04:34,080 --> 01:04:38,680
Speaker 2: decade plus ago, basically twenty fourteen, as we set the

1168
01:04:38,680 --> 01:04:41,240
Speaker 2: table here to move forward in twenty twenty six, Lebron

1169
01:04:41,240 --> 01:04:44,520
Speaker 2: and Curry, what is this a farewell tour? Just right

1170
01:04:44,640 --> 01:04:49,240
Speaker 2: next season? As a wash that from Jmu, I look,

1171
01:04:49,440 --> 01:04:52,160
Speaker 2: you give me Lebron and Curry every day of the

1172
01:04:52,200 --> 01:04:55,760
Speaker 2: week with Jimmy coming back if you can do that,

1173
01:04:55,960 --> 01:05:00,240
Speaker 2: over not and Porzingis would be in the mix there too.

1174
01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:03,680
Speaker 2: You give me Lebron over not getting Lebron and just

1175
01:05:03,800 --> 01:05:06,160
Speaker 2: rolling it back with what you have any day of

1176
01:05:06,200 --> 01:05:06,520
Speaker 2: the week.

1177
01:05:06,600 --> 01:05:09,960
Speaker 4: You give me Kawhi and not running it back.

1178
01:05:09,760 --> 01:05:12,479
Speaker 2: With exactly what you have currently for this Warriors team,

1179
01:05:12,520 --> 01:05:14,320
Speaker 2: and I'm taking that every day of the week.

1180
01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:18,200
Speaker 4: It's just reality. Like the I.

1181
01:05:18,160 --> 01:05:21,440
Speaker 2: Understand it offends a little, you know, Warrior fans senses

1182
01:05:21,520 --> 01:05:25,000
Speaker 2: in terms of Lebron's old Lebron's Lebron all of that.

1183
01:05:26,160 --> 01:05:30,280
Speaker 2: But do you want a different version of this to

1184
01:05:30,360 --> 01:05:32,600
Speaker 2: be you know, you want a version of hoping that

1185
01:05:33,080 --> 01:05:35,840
Speaker 2: similar things to this year or the plan for this

1186
01:05:35,920 --> 01:05:40,040
Speaker 2: year could hold up. Only with Jimmy already hurt and

1187
01:05:40,120 --> 01:05:43,240
Speaker 2: now more data on Steph being somebody that can't potentially

1188
01:05:43,320 --> 01:05:48,120
Speaker 2: be counted on to play more than fifty games. Sign

1189
01:05:48,160 --> 01:05:52,560
Speaker 2: me up for Lebron, sign me up for Kawhi Leonard

1190
01:05:52,600 --> 01:05:56,440
Speaker 2: if you can. If you can do it as well,

1191
01:05:57,240 --> 01:06:01,000
Speaker 2: Dunleavy will never move off Butler. It's literally the only

1192
01:06:01,040 --> 01:06:04,400
Speaker 2: transaction he's made that's actually successful. I think that's a

1193
01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:07,160
Speaker 2: little too strong. I think that's a little too strong,

1194
01:06:07,640 --> 01:06:12,280
Speaker 2: But I think it's it's also who can you get

1195
01:06:12,720 --> 01:06:14,520
Speaker 2: it for? Jimmy, Like you want to take back a

1196
01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:16,280
Speaker 2: hell of a player if you want to, you want to,

1197
01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:18,480
Speaker 2: you know, get back if you're gonna move.

1198
01:06:18,440 --> 01:06:19,000
Speaker 4: A Jimmy Butler.

1199
01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:20,400
Speaker 2: All right, let's take a time out. We'll come back.

1200
01:06:20,440 --> 01:06:22,640
Speaker 2: We'll get more in the chat. A lot of good

1201
01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:25,440
Speaker 2: stuff coming up here. From the chat. We'll also do

1202
01:06:25,480 --> 01:06:27,960
Speaker 2: a quick sounds of dubbs ot and we will wrap

1203
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:31,000
Speaker 2: things up from Harmonic, still going strong dubzot with jd

1204
01:06:31,520 --> 01:06:33,920
Speaker 2: rolling on here. On a rainy Wednesday night, Warriors lose

1205
01:06:33,960 --> 01:06:35,880
Speaker 2: one twenty seven to one thirteen to the Spurs.

1206
01:06:36,480 --> 01:06:41,800
Speaker 1: On the Sports Leader, knd are presents the sounds of

1207
01:06:41,920 --> 01:06:42,760
Speaker 1: dubs Ot.

1208
01:06:43,840 --> 01:06:46,600
Speaker 5: I can see the headline. Now cursh as Warriors better

1209
01:06:46,680 --> 01:06:49,400
Speaker 5: without Curry, get my joy back.

1210
01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:53,080
Speaker 6: I'm happy here, you know, off the court.

1211
01:06:53,480 --> 01:06:55,520
Speaker 1: Now here's John Dickinson.

1212
01:06:56,680 --> 01:06:57,680
Speaker 4: All right back.

1213
01:06:57,400 --> 01:07:00,120
Speaker 2: Here at Harmonic in Thrive City, and we're gonn to

1214
01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:03,200
Speaker 2: be here tomorrow night as well, as the Warriors are

1215
01:07:03,240 --> 01:07:06,920
Speaker 2: going to take on the Cleveland Cavaliers the second of

1216
01:07:06,960 --> 01:07:07,560
Speaker 2: the back to back.

1217
01:07:07,600 --> 01:07:08,800
Speaker 4: I would expect.

1218
01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:13,240
Speaker 2: Melton Porzingis, GP two, Gi Santos all to be back

1219
01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:16,880
Speaker 2: for the Warriors tomorrow as they take on the Cavaliers,

1220
01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:18,560
Speaker 2: and then a couple of more off days and everything

1221
01:07:18,680 --> 01:07:23,120
Speaker 2: ramping towards Steph's ability to return on Easter Sunday, and

1222
01:07:23,160 --> 01:07:25,439
Speaker 2: we'll be here on Easter Sunday night as well.

1223
01:07:25,440 --> 01:07:26,280
Speaker 4: That's a late one.

1224
01:07:26,360 --> 01:07:28,600
Speaker 2: Not a five thirty tip, but a seven o'clock tip,

1225
01:07:29,120 --> 01:07:32,200
Speaker 2: So nine to thirty on Easter Sunday, get your day,

1226

Speaker 2: get your brunch in, get whatever you gotta get in,

01:07:34,720 --> 01:07:37,080
Speaker 2: get in the Easter egg hunts with the kids, whatever

1228
01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:40,440
Speaker 2: your deal is the fam, get it in. And then

1229
01:07:40,480 --> 01:07:44,240
Speaker 2: we got you covered with the dubzot around nine thirty

1230
01:07:44,320 --> 01:07:47,720
Speaker 2: right back here at Harmonic and Thrive City on Sunday,

1231
01:07:47,760 --> 01:07:50,360

1232
01:07:50,400 --> 01:07:53,760
Speaker 2: return at that point. All right, let's get to our

1233
01:07:53,760 --> 01:07:56,400
Speaker 2: sounds a dubzot. We'll go a couple of cur We'll

1234
01:07:56,440 --> 01:07:59,560
Speaker 2: go one Nate Williams, who continues to kind of work

1235
01:07:59,600 --> 01:08:04,360
Speaker 2: his way into being one of the low key favorite

1236
01:08:04,640 --> 01:08:09,120
Speaker 2: favorite guys of mine, at least on this this Warriors

1237
01:08:09,120 --> 01:08:11,600
Speaker 2: team that wasn't even on the team a couple of

1238
01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:16,400
Speaker 2: weeks ago. But let's hear from Steve tonight tonight, no

1239
01:08:16,520 --> 01:08:20,960
Speaker 2: moral victories, but my goodness, Steve addressed the nine who

1240
01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:26,479
Speaker 2: were able to go, which included malevi Leon's playing left

1241
01:08:26,479 --> 01:08:29,960
Speaker 2: handed essentially because his right hand, his dominant hand, has

1242
01:08:29,960 --> 01:08:30,759
Speaker 2: been so injured.

1243
01:08:32,000 --> 01:08:35,200
Speaker 5: Just how scrappy our guys are. We got a lot

1244
01:08:35,200 --> 01:08:38,080
Speaker 5: of guys who play hard and play the right way.

1245
01:08:40,200 --> 01:08:43,320
Speaker 5: I'm sure our fans don't know this, but you know,

1246
01:08:43,360 --> 01:08:48,680
Speaker 5: Malfi is right handed and his wrist is really messed up,

1247
01:08:48,800 --> 01:08:51,320
Speaker 5: so that's why he shot those free throws left handed.

1248
01:08:51,360 --> 01:08:54,360
Speaker 5: He had to shoot I think three of them. He's

1249
01:08:54,400 --> 01:08:58,960
Speaker 5: out there basically, you know, playing with one one hand,

1250
01:08:58,960 --> 01:09:03,920
Speaker 5: and he's flying around and he's making energy plays, and

1251
01:09:03,960 --> 01:09:09,080
Speaker 5: it's really just, you know, we're totally shorthanded tonight, and

1252
01:09:09,200 --> 01:09:11,519
Speaker 5: I'm just really proud of the guys for the effort,

1253
01:09:11,680 --> 01:09:16,439
Speaker 5: the energy, the way they hung in and hopefully that

1254
01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:20,000
Speaker 5: effort carries over to tomorrow, hopefully we get some guys back.

1255
01:09:21,920 --> 01:09:22,559
Speaker 4: But it matters.

1256
01:09:22,640 --> 01:09:25,240
Speaker 5: I told them, every game matters. The way we handle ourselves,

1257
01:09:25,280 --> 01:09:28,120
Speaker 5: the way we play matters, and I thought they handled

1258
01:09:28,160 --> 01:09:29,719
Speaker 5: themselves beautifully tonight.

1259
01:09:31,240 --> 01:09:33,880
Speaker 2: Some nights, that's all you can ask. And I think

1260
01:09:33,920 --> 01:09:37,639
Speaker 2: tonight truly, And I don't know how many games there

1261
01:09:37,640 --> 01:09:39,760
Speaker 2: have been games where the Warriors were shorthanded enough to

1262
01:09:40,040 --> 01:09:41,559
Speaker 2: you knew going in they were going to get their

1263
01:09:41,600 --> 01:09:44,920
Speaker 2: ass kicked, and tonight did feel like one of those nights,

1264
01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:50,320
Speaker 2: maybe to the greatest extreme, but I think, you know,

1265
01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:53,560
Speaker 2: going out there and competing and not getting embarrassed. I

1266
01:09:53,600 --> 01:09:55,439
Speaker 2: don't the guys who went out there and played tonight

1267
01:09:55,439 --> 01:09:59,080
Speaker 2: didn't get embarrassed, I think, And again that doesn't like

1268
01:09:59,160 --> 01:10:00,640
Speaker 2: what does that really work earth at the end of

1269
01:10:00,680 --> 01:10:01,000
Speaker 2: the day.

1270
01:10:01,680 --> 01:10:06,200
Speaker 4: But I think again, you want to keep.

1271
01:10:06,080 --> 01:10:09,960
Speaker 2: The basketball God small g on your side a little

1272
01:10:09,960 --> 01:10:11,800
Speaker 2: bit here moving forward, all right, let's hear another one

1273
01:10:11,840 --> 01:10:14,960
Speaker 2: from Steve Kerr, this one on Nate Williams, who did

1274
01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:19,720
Speaker 2: play forty seven minutes in this game. He had a

1275
01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:24,439
Speaker 2: nice bucket against Wimbin Yama, ended up with eighteen points to.

1276
01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:26,080
Speaker 4: Go with a couple of steals.

1277
01:10:26,120 --> 01:10:29,080
Speaker 2: He's a good defender, by the way, and assist four boards,

1278
01:10:29,760 --> 01:10:32,800
Speaker 2: hit a couple of threes. Here is Steve Kerr on

1279
01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:35,280
Speaker 2: Nate Williams, who was one of a couple of two

1280
01:10:35,280 --> 01:10:38,200
Speaker 2: way players for the Dubs that were in the starting

1281
01:10:38,240 --> 01:10:41,320
Speaker 2: lineup tonight, not just active, but in the starting lineup

1282
01:10:41,320 --> 01:10:42,559
Speaker 2: tonight for Golden State.

1283
01:10:42,960 --> 01:10:45,479
Speaker 5: Kind of knew, you know, looking at because you know,

1284
01:10:45,520 --> 01:10:47,120
Speaker 5: we only had nine guys, and we had a couple

1285
01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:50,880
Speaker 5: of guys on minutes restrictions too, so and we played

1286
01:10:51,200 --> 01:10:54,320
Speaker 5: you know, two guys had five fouls a whole fourth,

1287
01:10:55,880 --> 01:10:58,080
Speaker 5: so it was a little dicey there for a while.

1288
01:10:58,479 --> 01:11:01,240
Speaker 5: But yeah, we knew going into the game that Nate

1289
01:11:01,280 --> 01:11:04,360
Speaker 5: would would play a lot of minutes. I didn't know

1290
01:11:04,360 --> 01:11:07,040
Speaker 5: it would be forty six and a half. But he

1291
01:11:07,120 --> 01:11:08,120
Speaker 5: handled it really well.

1292
01:11:10,240 --> 01:11:14,200
Speaker 2: And look, Nate Williams is, you know, whatever becomes of

1293
01:11:14,240 --> 01:11:17,960
Speaker 2: his NBA career beyond this year with the Warriors, he's

1294
01:11:18,000 --> 01:11:21,800
Speaker 2: a dog. He's he is an absolute dog. And you know,

1295
01:11:21,840 --> 01:11:25,120
Speaker 2: we can get into talent level and experience, like I

1296
01:11:25,320 --> 01:11:27,519
Speaker 2: would not be surprised if Nate Williams is somebody that

1297
01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:29,880
Speaker 2: wound up, you know, finding his way onto an NBA

1298
01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:33,800
Speaker 2: roster for for a while after the way that he's

1299
01:11:33,840 --> 01:11:36,160
Speaker 2: played with the Warriors in some limited action, and it

1300
01:11:36,200 --> 01:11:39,280
Speaker 2: hasn't been hasn't been pretty every night, but he's he

1301
01:11:39,400 --> 01:11:43,519
Speaker 2: is unafraid to attack the offensive glass and he is

1302
01:11:43,640 --> 01:11:47,800
Speaker 2: unafraid to defend like he he is a rugged. He

1303
01:11:47,920 --> 01:11:52,040
Speaker 2: practically shut down Jonathan Kaminga, which was which was kind

1304
01:11:52,040 --> 01:11:55,559
Speaker 2: of awesome, and I like the perfect guy to go

1305
01:11:55,640 --> 01:11:58,600
Speaker 2: up against Kaminga. I'm not gonna lie in the Kaminga

1306
01:11:58,640 --> 01:12:02,439
Speaker 2: revenge game back in in March in Atlanta a couple

1307
01:12:02,439 --> 01:12:05,639
Speaker 2: of weeks ago. But the quintessential guy who's been handed

1308
01:12:05,720 --> 01:12:10,280
Speaker 2: nothing going up against the guy who believes he should

1309
01:12:10,320 --> 01:12:13,720
Speaker 2: have been handed everything with the Warriors, and the guy

1310
01:12:13,720 --> 01:12:16,080
Speaker 2: who's been handed nothing ends up ends up coming out

1311
01:12:16,280 --> 01:12:18,599
Speaker 2: on top in the Grand skeep it thing. So let's

1312
01:12:18,640 --> 01:12:24,280
Speaker 2: hear from the man himself, Nate Williams on playing forty

1313
01:12:24,479 --> 01:12:27,600
Speaker 2: six and a half minutes tonight for the Dubs.

1314
01:12:27,680 --> 01:12:30,200
Speaker 6: Just my toughness. You know, I can help a team win.

1315
01:12:30,320 --> 01:12:33,639
Speaker 7: I can do things that other guys are not willing

1316
01:12:33,680 --> 01:12:36,759
Speaker 7: to do nowadays. You know, I feel like me personally,

01:15:08,840 --> 01:15:10,720
Speaker 2: I mean he's there have been some games where he's

1369
01:15:10,760 --> 01:15:14,080
Speaker 2: hit some threes and and it's been impressive.

1370
01:15:14,840 --> 01:15:15,080
Speaker 4: Uh.

1371
01:15:15,120 --> 01:15:17,959

1372
01:15:18,040 --> 01:15:20,280
Speaker 2: the one, the one against Kamingo with something that. I

1373
01:15:20,280 --> 01:15:23,600
Speaker 2: mean that Ian j that quote alone deserves a contract

1374
01:15:23,600 --> 01:15:24,200
Speaker 2: for next year.

1375
01:15:24,280 --> 01:15:24,519
Speaker 6: J D.

1376
01:15:24,720 --> 01:15:28,160
Speaker 2: I agree, I'm with you, give him a contract for

1377
01:15:28,200 --> 01:15:30,400
Speaker 2: next year. I just I don't know, I'm I'm I'm

1378
01:15:30,400 --> 01:15:32,920
Speaker 2: sure I'm speaking for a lot of people, but I

1379
01:15:32,920 --> 01:15:39,600
Speaker 2: I am a Nate Williams fan, uh forever. With a

1380
01:15:39,640 --> 01:15:42,680
Speaker 2: couple of the quote, you know, who was it? I

1381
01:15:42,720 --> 01:15:45,240
Speaker 2: fear no one was was he going up against?

1382
01:15:45,479 --> 01:15:50,080
Speaker 4: Who is he? Who's he going up against? Kawhi?

1383
01:15:50,200 --> 01:15:53,679
Speaker 2: That's right, I yeah, I fear no one. I fear

1384
01:15:53,760 --> 01:15:58,040
Speaker 2: no man. I mean that Nate grow a pair Williams.

1385
01:15:58,760 --> 01:16:02,040
Speaker 2: I mean, this dude is awesome. Like again, it's a

1386
01:16:02,080 --> 01:16:05,840
Speaker 2: bad night. The Warriors are dreadfully depleted and under talented.

1387
01:16:06,320 --> 01:16:08,200
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't want to be grasping it's like,

1388
01:16:08,560 --> 01:16:12,680
Speaker 2: but that mentality is something that I think can help everybody.

1389
01:16:12,960 --> 01:16:15,679
Speaker 4: Just in life. I mean, it's just it's it's awesome.

1390
01:16:16,360 --> 01:16:17,439
Speaker 4: It's absolutely awesome.

1391
01:16:18,360 --> 01:16:21,479
Speaker 2: H And again, yeah, I hope Nate Williams is on

1392
01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:24,880
Speaker 2: the Warriors next year as a as a back end

1393
01:16:24,920 --> 01:16:26,320
Speaker 2: of the right. And look, you know what, the Warriors

1394
01:16:26,360 --> 01:16:29,520
Speaker 2: are gonna need a bunch of dudes with that mentality

1395
01:16:29,920 --> 01:16:32,000
Speaker 2: that aren't gonna be making a lot of money next year.

1396
01:16:32,520 --> 01:16:35,160
Speaker 2: And you know, Nate is gonna be one of those

1397
01:16:35,200 --> 01:16:37,000
Speaker 2: guys that you can get on his level of a

1398
01:16:37,040 --> 01:16:39,880
Speaker 2: minimum or maybe even a two way, two way contract

1399
01:16:41,200 --> 01:16:43,240
Speaker 2: for next year. All right, let's get to some chats here,

1400
01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:46,120
Speaker 2: our final installment of Kyle's Clicks. Kyle, let's go about

1401
01:16:46,160 --> 01:16:48,640
Speaker 2: five minutes and then we'll wrap things up out here

1402
01:16:48,640 --> 01:16:49,200
Speaker 2: at Harmonic.

1403
01:16:49,240 --> 01:16:52,800
Speaker 4: I'd rather have Nate that a few guys on this roster,

1404
01:16:53,000 --> 01:16:54,120
Speaker 4: damn right, Geane.

1405
01:16:54,240 --> 01:16:56,120
Speaker 2: Like it's just I mean, it's a I mean, you

1406
01:16:56,160 --> 01:16:58,479
Speaker 2: can just hear it in his voice, Like you can

1407
01:16:58,520 --> 01:17:01,479
Speaker 2: just hear the confidence in his voice, the belief in

1408
01:17:01,560 --> 01:17:05,800
Speaker 2: his voice, the you know, and you know sometimes it

1409
01:17:05,920 --> 01:17:08,519
Speaker 2: is about you know, growing up in what Rochester? Right,

1410
01:17:08,600 --> 01:17:10,719
Speaker 2: Remember he was talking about his path to the NBA

1411
01:17:10,760 --> 01:17:13,400
Speaker 2: and growing up in a in a tough spot in Rochester,

1412
01:17:13,479 --> 01:17:16,920
Speaker 2: New York, and and and that basically molding him into

1413
01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:19,599
Speaker 2: the into the dude he is, and and to have

1414
01:17:19,640 --> 01:17:23,280
Speaker 2: the work ethic that he does. But yeah, I mean,

1415
01:17:24,320 --> 01:17:26,280
Speaker 2: you could do worse than Nate Williams. Sorry, let's keep

Speaker 2: final couple of minutes on on Nate Williams, jokes on you,

1432
01:18:08,240 --> 01:18:10,400
Speaker 2: poor Nate Williams played forty seven minutes.

1433
01:18:10,479 --> 01:18:11,439
Speaker 4: Jesus, poor guy.

1434
01:18:12,120 --> 01:18:14,519
Speaker 2: This is also the dude who played a G League game.

1435
01:18:15,280 --> 01:18:17,840
Speaker 2: He played what four days in a row? Or didn't

1436
01:18:17,840 --> 01:18:20,800
Speaker 2: he play a G League game? Anna played a g

1437
01:18:20,920 --> 01:18:24,439
Speaker 2: LE game. He went like g LE game Warrior game,

1438
01:18:24,520 --> 01:18:26,760
Speaker 2: g League game Warrior game like back to back to

1439
01:18:26,800 --> 01:18:30,920
Speaker 2: back to back to back. Uh, and yeah, he's just again.

1440
01:18:31,880 --> 01:18:35,280
Speaker 2: I'm a dying breed. I'm a dying breed. I'm Nate Williams.

1441
01:18:35,479 --> 01:18:37,960
Speaker 4: Nate Williams sounds like DeAndre Hopkins.

1442
01:18:37,960 --> 01:18:41,160
Speaker 2: Low key, it's a good that's good, Colm, it's gonna go.

1443
01:18:41,160 --> 01:18:41,600
Speaker 4: I can hear a.

1444
01:18:41,600 --> 01:18:44,400
Speaker 3: Little that sounds like DeAndre Hopkins. But he looks like

1445
01:18:44,439 --> 01:18:45,519
Speaker 3: Klena as a bookie.

1446
01:18:47,040 --> 01:18:50,640
Speaker 4: That's right, that's right. He sounds like, Yeah, sounds like

1447
01:18:50,680 --> 01:18:54,120
Speaker 4: DeAndre Hopkins. Looks like Klena as a bookie. That's right.

1448
01:18:54,720 --> 01:18:57,120
Speaker 2: All right, let's keep it rolling here, final couple of minutes.

1449
01:18:57,400 --> 01:19:00,000
Speaker 2: Wemby is like a cheat code. I thought the Warriors

1450
01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:02,439
Speaker 2: played him pretty well, Like there is no answer for

1451
01:19:02,479 --> 01:19:05,559
Speaker 2: Wemby when when he's got it cooking, and when you're

1452
01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:08,240
Speaker 2: playing a left hand, when you're playing on left handed

1453
01:19:08,240 --> 01:19:11,920
Speaker 2: malevi Leones, you should have a great night in relation

1454
01:19:12,040 --> 01:19:16,719
Speaker 2: to obviously Wemby and and his great night here against

1455
01:19:16,760 --> 01:19:18,800
Speaker 2: the Warriors tonight as the Spurs went at one twenty

1456
01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:23,680
Speaker 2: seven to one thirteen. Uh, let's keep it going. The

1457
01:19:23,720 --> 01:19:27,559
Speaker 2: Spurs are light years younger than the Warriors. Is there

1458
01:19:27,600 --> 01:19:30,760
Speaker 2: something to the comp between, like San Antonio having all

1459
01:19:30,760 --> 01:19:35,320
Speaker 2: the guys that are basically role players among their young players,

1460
01:19:35,400 --> 01:19:37,800
Speaker 2: and then they get the star, and then they even

1461
01:19:37,840 --> 01:19:41,320
Speaker 2: get the the number two in Fox, and now all

1462
01:19:41,360 --> 01:19:45,479
Speaker 2: of a sudden, it's like, damn, Castle and Vassell and

1463
01:19:45,600 --> 01:19:48,960
Speaker 2: Keldon Johnson and like all these dudes that had been,

1464
01:19:49,960 --> 01:19:55,240
Speaker 2: uh that had been at a point where you know, Champenny,

1465
01:19:55,800 --> 01:19:58,559
Speaker 2: you know, all these dudes that that stand alone like

1466
01:19:58,640 --> 01:20:02,360
Speaker 2: I couldn't help but have a little warrior like thought

1467
01:20:02,439 --> 01:20:04,639
Speaker 2: to like, they have a bunch of young dudes who

1468
01:20:04,640 --> 01:20:09,120
Speaker 2: are role players that were all kind of high draft

1469
01:20:09,160 --> 01:20:12,840
Speaker 2: picks that never really turned into stars. But eventually they

1470
01:20:12,920 --> 01:20:14,800
Speaker 2: got the star, and then it was like, damn, Like

1471
01:20:14,920 --> 01:20:18,360
Speaker 2: these young players are really good freaking role players. And

1472
01:20:18,439 --> 01:20:20,880
Speaker 2: I don't know, it made me think, and again, I'm

1473
01:20:20,880 --> 01:20:21,959
Speaker 2: doing more of the pods.

1474
01:20:22,200 --> 01:20:25,320
Speaker 4: I'm doing I'm sorry, I'm doing more of the pods, Moody.

1475
01:20:26,880 --> 01:20:33,080
Speaker 2: Santos comparison to the guys like Vasel and Keldon Johnson

1476
01:20:33,200 --> 01:20:36,000
Speaker 2: and Champenny and those guys, I'm not doing it. You know,

1477
01:20:36,160 --> 01:20:39,000
Speaker 2: Dylan Harper might be more than that Castle, but they've

1478
01:20:39,040 --> 01:20:41,920
Speaker 2: got Fox and Wimbin Yama and those guys you know,

1479
01:20:42,040 --> 01:20:44,720
Speaker 2: Castle and Harper too, that could be the man.

1480
01:20:44,760 --> 01:20:49,600
Speaker 4: They are the Spurs are set up, Man, Spurs are

1481
01:20:49,640 --> 01:20:50,000
Speaker 4: set up.

1482
01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:51,600
Speaker 2: They've got the dude, and then they got all the

1483
01:20:51,640 --> 01:20:55,080
Speaker 2: other dudes in addition to the dude. All right, final

1484
01:20:55,160 --> 01:20:58,000
Speaker 2: couple of minutes here, they should be allowed to forfeit

1485
01:20:58,040 --> 01:21:00,040
Speaker 2: these last few games and just play the play. And

1486
01:21:00,520 --> 01:21:04,920
Speaker 2: what about Steph. You gotta get Steph's runway. Gotta get

1487
01:21:04,920 --> 01:21:08,360
Speaker 2: Steph's runway to see. It's San Antonio's league and we

1488
01:21:08,479 --> 01:21:10,800
Speaker 2: just live in it. That was Max from early on

1489
01:21:12,280 --> 01:21:15,559
Speaker 2: in the show, Our buddy, No Cap. I was looking

1490
01:21:15,560 --> 01:21:18,880
Speaker 2: forward to the offseason after next season because I thought

1491
01:21:18,880 --> 01:21:21,160
Speaker 2: they'd have money finally to go shopping. But they're gonna

1492
01:21:21,160 --> 01:21:25,799
Speaker 2: bloat on G League players and Wash players. Look, No Cap,

1493
01:21:26,360 --> 01:21:32,679
Speaker 2: get Draymond at thirteen million for twenty nine. Ain't gonna

1494
01:21:32,680 --> 01:21:35,839
Speaker 2: prevent them from going and getting going and getting somebody

1495
01:21:35,840 --> 01:21:38,720
Speaker 2: in free agency? Can they get somebody to come in

1496
01:21:38,800 --> 01:21:44,240
Speaker 2: free agency? That's the part I don't necessarily know. You know,

1497
01:21:44,479 --> 01:21:50,240
Speaker 2: our is Golden State a destination we we I don't

1498
01:21:50,280 --> 01:21:52,720
Speaker 2: think they are. I'm not sure they are. All right,

1499
01:21:52,800 --> 01:21:55,280
Speaker 2: let's get a couple of more here, Kyle, rapid fire.

1500
01:21:55,680 --> 01:21:57,479
Speaker 2: We could have started this at halftime and we could

1501
01:21:57,479 --> 01:21:59,960
Speaker 2: all go to bed early. Hey, the bosses won't allow it, Dickon,

1502
01:22:00,160 --> 01:22:02,280
Speaker 2: I had to watch the Sharks game, man, I had

1503
01:22:02,280 --> 01:22:02,600
Speaker 2: to watch it.

1504
01:22:02,840 --> 01:22:04,320
Speaker 4: I was watching it in the Sharks game while the

1505
01:22:04,320 --> 01:22:07,320
Speaker 4: Warriors game was going on. Who what a game?

1506
01:22:07,920 --> 01:22:10,360
Speaker 2: And by the way, who said the Sharks weren't dead?

1507
01:22:10,800 --> 01:22:13,639
Speaker 2: By the way, on the air here, like a week ago,

1508
01:22:13,680 --> 01:22:17,800
Speaker 2: everybody was burying the Sharks like they were done. I'm like, Uh,

1509
01:22:17,840 --> 01:22:21,120
Speaker 2: they're only six games or six points out, which is

1510
01:22:22,040 --> 01:22:25,639
Speaker 2: three wins. And I know other teams have to obviously lose,

1511
01:22:26,439 --> 01:22:29,840
Speaker 2: but six points out with like twelve games left or

1512
01:22:29,880 --> 01:22:33,080
Speaker 2: thirteen or whatever. It was like a week ago, even

1513
01:22:33,120 --> 01:22:37,880
Speaker 2: after the lost to Nashville. Uh, doctor p, don't worry

1514
01:22:37,920 --> 01:22:39,800
Speaker 2: Barnes will choke in the finals like he always did.

1515
01:22:40,240 --> 01:22:42,280
Speaker 4: They may not even need him in the finals.

1516
01:22:44,720 --> 01:22:47,040
Speaker 2: I mean, they got a cell, they got Kelton Johnson,

1517
01:22:47,120 --> 01:22:51,000
Speaker 2: they got Harper, they got Castle, they got Champinnee.

1518
01:22:52,520 --> 01:22:54,439
Speaker 4: They could withstand a Harry B.

1519
01:22:56,000 --> 01:22:59,160
Speaker 2: Harry B won for eight in a finals game and

1520
01:22:59,240 --> 01:23:06,360
Speaker 2: not necessary have it defined them. The only interesting part

1521
01:23:06,360 --> 01:23:08,600
Speaker 2: at the end was if the team would cover. I

1522
01:23:08,600 --> 01:23:11,080
Speaker 2: think it was for I. It's funny somebody asked in

1523
01:23:11,120 --> 01:23:16,720
Speaker 2: the in the media workroom. Uh, pregame. So I'm going

1524
01:23:16,760 --> 01:23:18,840
Speaker 2: back to like before tip off, I'm hanging out in

1525
01:23:18,880 --> 01:23:21,040
Speaker 2: the in the media room by the way, damn near.

1526
01:23:22,439 --> 01:23:23,439
Speaker 4: Here's another question.

1527
01:23:23,560 --> 01:23:26,880
Speaker 2: Okay, so tonight I want to keep that up here

1528
01:23:26,920 --> 01:23:28,560
Speaker 2: because I want to make sure we get Kyle to that.

1529
01:23:28,640 --> 01:23:30,920
Speaker 4: But I got.

1530
01:23:31,439 --> 01:23:36,360
Speaker 2: The question was asked tonight in the workroom about the spread.

1531
01:23:36,680 --> 01:23:38,439
Speaker 2: Here was my other challenge, and we got to get

1532
01:23:38,439 --> 01:23:39,920
Speaker 2: people to weigh in on this real quick. I know

1533
01:23:39,960 --> 01:23:41,599
Speaker 2: we're up against it. We're gonna get out of here.

1534
01:23:43,040 --> 01:23:45,679
Speaker 2: I had the sam So we had the sam Amic.

1535
01:23:47,040 --> 01:23:49,760
Speaker 2: Sam Amic was in the house tonight of the Athletic

1536
01:23:50,080 --> 01:23:55,559
Speaker 2: contributor here on the Sports Leader. It was Sam and

01:24:15,840 --> 01:24:17,360
Speaker 4: But here all right, So here.

1545
01:24:17,280 --> 01:24:21,840
Speaker 2: It is, we got the the the It's not gonna

1546
01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:25,280
Speaker 2: be It's not gonna show anyway. The placards that didn't

1547
01:24:25,320 --> 01:24:28,160
Speaker 2: work well for video with the with the logo, they

1548
01:24:28,240 --> 01:24:31,280
Speaker 2: put the college logos up on the up of the

1549
01:24:31,360 --> 01:24:37,479
Speaker 2: So we got Sam and yours truly from Sacramento State, right.

1550
01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:44,160
Speaker 4: S h a Q. And we got Nick Fredell and

1551
01:24:44,280 --> 01:24:46,920
Speaker 4: Danny Emmerman from Syracuse.

1552
01:24:48,520 --> 01:24:52,240
Speaker 2: So there's two. There's two Syracuse and there's two Sacks State.

1553
01:24:54,000 --> 01:24:57,559
Speaker 2: I challenged them to a two on two. I challenged

1554
01:24:57,640 --> 01:24:58,599
Speaker 2: them to two on two and.

1555
01:24:58,560 --> 01:24:59,120
Speaker 4: A mix in.

1556
01:24:59,400 --> 01:25:01,839
Speaker 2: I don't think a MCNs he's necessarily in, but amix

1557
01:25:01,920 --> 01:25:08,280
Speaker 2: in I challenged, and and emmer and Emmeron half accepted,

1558
01:25:08,360 --> 01:25:11,960
Speaker 2: and Fredell was a little scared. I think Fredell was like,

1559
01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:15,519
Speaker 2: you got nobody to guard Emerin. So who wins? Who

1560
01:25:15,560 --> 01:25:17,880
Speaker 2: wins between the two Syracuse guys? And let me tell

1561
01:25:17,880 --> 01:25:23,920
Speaker 2: you something. Carmelo Anthony ain't walking through that door. Jerry

1562
01:25:24,000 --> 01:25:27,400
Speaker 2: McNamara ain't walking through that nor that door, although he

1563
01:25:27,439 --> 01:25:27,720
Speaker 2: is well.

1564
01:25:28,640 --> 01:25:32,519
Speaker 3: I think the key question is, uh, well, Shaquille O'Neill

1565
01:25:32,680 --> 01:25:36,400
Speaker 3: be your team manager or or the general manager.

1566
01:25:36,439 --> 01:25:39,479
Speaker 4: I should say, yeah, and Mike Bibby's gonna coach it.

1567
01:25:39,520 --> 01:25:42,320
Speaker 2: We got Mike Bibby coaching and we got we got

1568
01:25:42,360 --> 01:25:45,080
Speaker 2: Shaq as the GM.

1569
01:25:45,280 --> 01:25:45,719
Speaker 4: It's good.

1570
01:25:45,880 --> 01:25:48,720
Speaker 2: It's good to know where all where all my alumni

1571
01:25:48,800 --> 01:25:49,800
Speaker 2: donations are going.

1572
01:25:50,160 --> 01:25:51,800
Speaker 4: Fredell just laughed, didn't he?

1573
01:25:52,960 --> 01:25:56,040
Speaker 2: Nick the Pick is what he called himself, Nick the Pick,

1574
01:25:58,200 --> 01:26:01,559
Speaker 2: because he can't do anything else except at screens. So

1575
01:26:01,600 --> 01:26:04,400
Speaker 2: it it's but it is a fair question. Who's gonna

1576
01:26:04,400 --> 01:26:07,280
Speaker 2: guard Emmerman. Emmerman's got a few Emmerman's got a few

1577
01:26:07,320 --> 01:26:09,679
Speaker 2: years on sam. Sammy and I are more on the Lebron.

1578
01:26:09,840 --> 01:26:12,840
Speaker 2: Sammy and I are closer to Lebron than we are

1579
01:26:13,000 --> 01:26:17,479
Speaker 2: to Wenby in terms of our age. We're in the

1580
01:26:17,640 --> 01:26:23,000
Speaker 2: Lebron category. Emmerman's close to the Wemby category, close sir

1581
01:26:24,080 --> 01:26:25,920
Speaker 2: uh to the to the Wemby category.

1582
01:26:25,920 --> 01:26:27,720
Speaker 4: Although he isn't seven foot six.

1583
01:26:27,680 --> 01:26:32,600
Speaker 3: What is amex hooping skills? Like I'm I'm trying to

1584
01:26:32,640 --> 01:26:33,360
Speaker 3: paint a picture.

1585
01:26:33,840 --> 01:26:37,439
Speaker 2: I can't never seen him play, Okay, not gonna lie,

1586
01:26:37,560 --> 01:26:40,559
Speaker 2: never seen him play. But your your boy could step

1587
01:26:40,600 --> 01:26:42,880
Speaker 2: out and shoot and your boil, your boil lay a

1588
01:26:42,880 --> 01:26:48,479
Speaker 2: hard foul on somebody. So maybe, But like Emmerman, Emmerman

1589
01:26:48,520 --> 01:26:50,360
Speaker 2: ain't gonna bring any of the weak stuff in in

1590
01:26:50,439 --> 01:26:54,320
Speaker 2: the paint on on JD like that, like it'll I

1591
01:26:54,360 --> 01:26:57,439
Speaker 2: got a little Draymond streak. I have little Draymond streak.

1592
01:26:57,560 --> 01:27:00,719
Speaker 2: Like it's Nick the pick, but JD will lay somebody down.

1593
01:27:00,960 --> 01:27:03,320
Speaker 4: But you're right, yeah. Fredell laughed and he said, Nick

1594
01:27:03,360 --> 01:27:06,400
Speaker 4: the pick. That is dead true.

1595
01:27:06,479 --> 01:27:09,120
Speaker 2: He goes Nick the pick and then the for Dell boys,

1596
01:27:09,600 --> 01:27:14,280
Speaker 2: Sam plays like Beverlely. Well, if Sam plays like Beverley

1597
01:27:14,320 --> 01:27:17,360
Speaker 2: and I play like Draymond, then then we're gonna lose.

1598
01:27:17,360 --> 01:27:18,759
Speaker 4: But there's gonna be a hell of a fight.

1599
01:27:19,720 --> 01:27:23,240
Speaker 2: There's gonna be it gonna be a hell of a brawl.
