WEBVTT - Hour 3 - Chris Mannix, Jason McCourty 0:00:00.640 --> 0:00:03.480 You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 0:00:03.560 --> 0:00:08.680 Sports Radio Final Hour on this Tuesday, and it's been 0:00:08.720 --> 0:00:11.600 a busy show, a lot of topics. Spent a lot 0:00:11.640 --> 0:00:14.560 of time, maybe too much time talking about Kyler Murray 0:00:14.640 --> 0:00:18.800 and an addendum in his contract. I talked to a 0:00:18.800 --> 0:00:21.680 long time agent. He said, never heard that before, where 0:00:21.680 --> 0:00:24.280 you've put in an addendum basically saying we need you 0:00:24.360 --> 0:00:26.800 to study more. And the fact that it was made 0:00:26.840 --> 0:00:30.760 public and it was in the contract. Those are things 0:00:30.800 --> 0:00:33.080 that the agent Ice Books, who said, never heard of 0:00:33.120 --> 0:00:36.160 that before, and it looks bad for both sides. We'll 0:00:36.159 --> 0:00:39.320 get phone calls on this topic coming up. Also, Chris 0:00:39.360 --> 0:00:42.360 Mannox will join us. We'll talk about the possibility of 0:00:42.360 --> 0:00:46.480 the Celtics and the Brooklyn Nets maybe broaching a deal 0:00:46.680 --> 0:00:50.280 that will involve Kevin Durant. Brooklyn declined the offer the 0:00:50.400 --> 0:00:53.880 trade that the Celtics made the news, I think came 0:00:53.920 --> 0:00:56.200 as a little bit of a surprise. Probably did to 0:00:56.320 --> 0:01:00.400 Jalen Brown. Also, you have some role players there, but 0:01:00.800 --> 0:01:05.200 Kevin Durant to Boston, and Boston is already, according to DraftKings, 0:01:05.280 --> 0:01:08.640 been made the favorites to win the NBA Championship without 0:01:08.760 --> 0:01:12.240 Kevin Durant. But if you have Kevin Durant or the opportunity, 0:01:12.360 --> 0:01:15.520 can you pass that up to pair him with Jason Tatum. 0:01:15.600 --> 0:01:18.240 So we'll talk to Mannix about that coming up. Make 0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:20.000 sure you go to dan Patrick dot com. Got a 0:01:20.040 --> 0:01:22.640 lot of great things there. Sign up for the newsletter 0:01:22.959 --> 0:01:25.280 that gives you a heads up before anybody else about 0:01:25.280 --> 0:01:27.800 the deals that we have. Also, you get a recap 0:01:27.840 --> 0:01:31.040 of the show. And there's over sixty thousand of you 0:01:31.160 --> 0:01:33.360 who have signed up and it comes right into your 0:01:33.680 --> 0:01:37.240 inbox your email at six eastern three Pacific. They do 0:01:37.280 --> 0:01:40.760 a great job in wrapping up the day, Brickyard Weekend, 0:01:40.880 --> 0:01:45.280 NBC and Peacock And you're going to have IndyCar on Saturday, 0:01:45.480 --> 0:01:49.320 NASCAR on Sunday, all from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Brickyard 0:01:49.320 --> 0:01:53.240 Weekend on NBC in Peacock seatan pull question, update, what 0:01:53.280 --> 0:01:55.400 do you have for me? Well, Dan, we threw up there. 0:01:55.400 --> 0:01:58.320 Who should be more embarrassed today? The Cardinals are Kyler Murray. 0:01:58.400 --> 0:02:03.080 Right now, sixty eight percent have Kyler all right. Well, 0:02:03.840 --> 0:02:09.960 ultimately it comes back to him that you did you 0:02:10.000 --> 0:02:12.320 need to put that in writing? I guess that's that 0:02:12.320 --> 0:02:15.920 would be my first question with the Cardinals Steve Kim, 0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:19.160 who is their general manager, or Cliff Kingsbury, Like why 0:02:19.200 --> 0:02:22.720 put it in writing? Can't you like, can you have 0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:26.639 a communication level here that says, Hey, we need to 0:02:26.680 --> 0:02:29.160 dedicate ourselves a little bit more. We need to put 0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:31.600 in a little bit more time. Here's the reason why. 0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:34.960 Like that's another thing. Here's here's the reason why we 0:02:35.040 --> 0:02:37.480 need you to put in more time. This is what 0:02:37.520 --> 0:02:40.320 we hope to get out of four extra hours of 0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:44.880 film study. I've never heard of this before, but Kyler 0:02:44.960 --> 0:02:47.520 Murray may look at himself and say, look, I'm unique. 0:02:48.280 --> 0:02:51.280 But you know what I'd say to Kyler Murray. Michael 0:02:51.360 --> 0:02:55.079 Vick thought he was unique as well. At some point. 0:02:55.639 --> 0:02:58.799 Got to be a quarterback. That's not just an athlete, 0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:02.840 that's not just an ability to run. Because Johnny Manziel 0:03:02.919 --> 0:03:05.480 thought he was smarter than everybody else, and then all 0:03:05.520 --> 0:03:10.639 of a sudden he wasn't. Kyler is a more polished quarterback. 0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:14.520 He's a more successful quarterback. He's a better quarterback. But 0:03:14.639 --> 0:03:19.920 Johnny Manziel had all the answers. Johnny had all the 0:03:20.000 --> 0:03:25.000 answers in college. You could do it pros camp. But 0:03:25.160 --> 0:03:28.720 Kyler is really close to being a great quarterback, but 0:03:28.840 --> 0:03:32.040 you got to show postseason success, second half of the 0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:36.720 season success. But I would hope that Cliff Kingsbury would 0:03:36.760 --> 0:03:38.840 be able to say to management, don't put you don't 0:03:38.880 --> 0:03:41.160 have to put a clause in there unless you don't 0:03:41.160 --> 0:03:45.760 trust him, Why put it in. I would say to 0:03:45.880 --> 0:03:49.920 my head coach, Cliff, you need to bring him in. 0:03:50.320 --> 0:03:55.720 Let him understand what this is all about. Yes, it 0:03:55.800 --> 0:03:59.320 must be strange to look around though and not see 0:04:00.240 --> 0:04:03.080 some of the greatest quarterbacks to ever do this aren't 0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:05.720 half as athletic as Kyler Murray. Is what is the 0:04:05.760 --> 0:04:10.160 thing that made them so successful? Then yeah, no, and 0:04:10.520 --> 0:04:13.160 that's that's what you lead with. These guys didn't have 0:04:13.200 --> 0:04:17.080 anywhere near what you have, and but they became great 0:04:17.760 --> 0:04:21.720 because they studied, they put in the time. And he says, look, 0:04:21.760 --> 0:04:24.680 I got the cogitive cognitive skills to be able to 0:04:24.680 --> 0:04:28.400 do it. Well, okay, fine, Eventually it catches up too. 0:04:29.960 --> 0:04:32.159 I don't know if there's a negative. What's the downside 0:04:32.160 --> 0:04:36.599 to watching more film? That's what I would ask him. Well, 0:04:36.600 --> 0:04:38.599 of course he doesn't want to do it, and it 0:04:38.640 --> 0:04:41.680 could be boring, but you know that moment where you go, 0:04:41.760 --> 0:04:45.080 oh wow, I didn't realize that, and that wins you 0:04:45.120 --> 0:04:49.320 a game, wins you playoff game. Maybe you see something 0:04:50.320 --> 0:04:52.880 if you say, hey, you know Patrick Mahomes puts in 0:04:52.920 --> 0:04:56.040 all this time, Brady still puts in all this time. 0:04:57.360 --> 0:05:01.440 Why are you different? We'll get to your phone calls 0:05:01.480 --> 0:05:03.599 coming up. Also a little bit later on, the former 0:05:03.640 --> 0:05:06.240 Patriot defensive back Jason mccordy will join us. He's now 0:05:06.320 --> 0:05:09.599 working for the NFL Network. We make way for Chris 0:05:09.600 --> 0:05:12.919 Mannox Mannix has been all over this possibility of a 0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:19.160 trade between the Brooklyn Nets and the Boston Celtics. How 0:05:19.240 --> 0:05:22.480 real is this, Chris, the possibility that Kevin Durant and 0:05:22.520 --> 0:05:26.679 the Celtics could maybe pull off a deal. The Nets 0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:31.120 are in a way running out of options with Kevin Durant, 0:05:32.600 --> 0:05:35.160 you know, they couldn't put a deal together involving Phoenix. 0:05:35.240 --> 0:05:38.680 And that's when Phoenix had DeAndre Ayton as a potential 0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:40.920 trade chip. That's off the board now because Atan's new 0:05:40.920 --> 0:05:44.560 contract prevents him from being traded at least in that 0:05:44.640 --> 0:05:50.320 first year. Miami. You can't trade bam Atabio to Brooklyn 0:05:50.360 --> 0:05:52.440 with Ben Simmons on the roster because the league rules, 0:05:52.480 --> 0:05:55.080 and I don't get the sense Miami has an appetite 0:05:55.080 --> 0:05:58.719 to deal bam Atabio as it is. You know, Toronto 0:05:58.839 --> 0:06:01.040 is not giving up Scotty barn in a deal for 0:06:01.680 --> 0:06:05.440 Kevin Durant. So the number of potential suitors is pretty 0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:09.200 limited out there. And Boston's out there with a bona 0:06:09.200 --> 0:06:12.840 fide all star in Jalen Brown. Draft picks which, as 0:06:12.839 --> 0:06:15.400 I said, they're unafraid to deal and swap rights, whatever 0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:19.120 you want to do, and ancillary pieces that they can 0:06:19.200 --> 0:06:22.680 throw into the pot that might satisfy Brooklyn. So it's 0:06:22.680 --> 0:06:25.360 a long way of saying I believe there's real teeth 0:06:25.440 --> 0:06:29.120 to the possibility of Kevin Durant winding up in Boston. 0:06:29.400 --> 0:06:32.080 Let's look at Jalen Brown's situation. He was the celtics 0:06:32.080 --> 0:06:34.680 best player in the finals. Probably looks around and goes, 0:06:34.960 --> 0:06:37.240 wait a minute, You've tried to trade me a couple 0:06:37.279 --> 0:06:40.760 of times now, Anthony Davis, Kawhi Leonard and felt like 0:06:40.800 --> 0:06:42.839 he was going to be involved in those trades. He's 0:06:42.839 --> 0:06:47.520 twenty five two years left on this deal. Is what 0:06:48.160 --> 0:06:50.560 is he or was he in the long term plans 0:06:50.600 --> 0:06:54.839 for the Celtics. Look, I think Jalen's always been part 0:06:54.920 --> 0:06:59.040 of the long term plans for the Celtics, except if 0:06:59.080 --> 0:07:01.279 you can get a train sended player. I mean, Jalen 0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:04.800 Brown has not been talked about in deals that would 0:07:04.839 --> 0:07:08.880 net a player the equivalent of Jalen Brown. The names 0:07:08.880 --> 0:07:12.360 you mentioned, Kawhi Leonard, which was a topic when Leonard 0:07:12.400 --> 0:07:15.760 was being dealt from San Antonio, Anthony Davis, when Davis 0:07:15.800 --> 0:07:18.480 was at the peak of his powers playing in New Orleans. 0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:21.680 Now Kevin Durrett, an all NBA guy who has four 0:07:21.760 --> 0:07:25.320 years remaining on his contract. It's just Jalen Brown is 0:07:25.720 --> 0:07:30.360 the most movable piece on this roster. Now, the Celtics 0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:32.239 might be getting themselves into a bit of a pickle 0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:35.200 with Brown for some of the reasons that you talked about. 0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:38.640 I mean, Brown, even though it has been for players 0:07:38.920 --> 0:07:43.280 who are elite, has been talked about in trades every 0:07:43.320 --> 0:07:46.000 single year. I mean you go back to Jalen Brown's 0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:49.560 Draft night, Dan, he was booed, his selection was booed 0:07:49.680 --> 0:07:53.240 on Draft night in Boston for some fans that wanted 0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:56.360 him to take Chris Dunne in that draft. So he's 0:07:56.400 --> 0:07:59.400 had kind of a roller coaster ride in the city. 0:07:59.400 --> 0:08:02.960 So the Celtics have to wonder if all these trade 0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:06.160 talks have poisoned the well in a way with Jalen 0:08:06.200 --> 0:08:09.360 Brownie so I'm tweets something on Monday that seemed to 0:08:09.360 --> 0:08:12.360 suggest he was a little bit frustrated. The other part 0:08:12.400 --> 0:08:15.920 of this is that Jalen Brown does have two years 0:08:15.920 --> 0:08:20.920 remaining on his contract, but it's not a contract that's 0:08:21.000 --> 0:08:24.960 likely to be extended for financial reasons. Jaylen Brown took 0:08:25.000 --> 0:08:28.920 what turned out to be a below market value contract 0:08:29.200 --> 0:08:32.319 when he signed one a few years ago, and because 0:08:32.320 --> 0:08:35.720 of that, he can't turn around and sign a max 0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:39.280 level extension next summer with this team. There are limits 0:08:39.280 --> 0:08:41.880 to how much Boston can offer him in an extension. 0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:44.280 They can go all out and offer him a five 0:08:44.400 --> 0:08:47.480 year max when he hits free agency in twenty twenty four, 0:08:47.960 --> 0:08:50.280 but that's a risk. Like Jalen Brown will be an 0:08:50.320 --> 0:08:53.200 unrestricted free agent in twenty twenty four and he could 0:08:53.200 --> 0:08:55.680 look around and say, you know what, I'm tired of 0:08:55.720 --> 0:08:57.720 all this trade talk. I want to go to a 0:08:57.760 --> 0:09:00.720 place where I can be either a more appreciated or 0:09:00.800 --> 0:09:03.880 be in a position to be the lead man on 0:09:03.920 --> 0:09:06.320 that team. I believe I have the talent to ultimately 0:09:06.400 --> 0:09:08.760 do that, and the Celtics could wind up losing him 0:09:08.760 --> 0:09:10.840 for nothing. So there are a couple of reasons why 0:09:10.920 --> 0:09:14.880 Boston might be motivated to get deeper into this mix. Okay, 0:09:14.920 --> 0:09:18.000 what happens next. Does it come from the Nets in 0:09:18.040 --> 0:09:20.319 what they want or does it come from the Celtics. 0:09:20.360 --> 0:09:24.000 Since this is where it originated, whether it's the Celtics 0:09:24.280 --> 0:09:27.960 or any other team interested in Kevin Durant, it now 0:09:28.040 --> 0:09:32.840 becomes kind of a game of chicken where everybody kind 0:09:32.840 --> 0:09:36.240 of retires to their corner for a few weeks and 0:09:36.920 --> 0:09:40.959 waits to see what kind of plays out. For teams 0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:44.760 that are interested in Durant, including Boston, they want to 0:09:44.800 --> 0:09:48.839 see what Brooklyn's appetite really is for bringing the band 0:09:48.840 --> 0:09:51.120 back together. I mean, the Nets want the league to 0:09:51.160 --> 0:09:54.240 believe that they are willing to bring back Kevin Durant 0:09:54.320 --> 0:09:57.120 Kyrie Irving, and because of that, there's no sense of 0:09:57.240 --> 0:10:00.600 urgency to do that. There's skepticism amongst some of the 0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:03.560 league officials that I've talked to that Brooklyn really is 0:10:04.040 --> 0:10:06.440 willing to do that. So the way I'm kind of 0:10:06.600 --> 0:10:10.760 reading the room here, Dan, is that everyone is off 0:10:10.800 --> 0:10:13.199 for a few weeks, maybe they're already off right now, 0:10:14.200 --> 0:10:18.480 go on vacation, all that, and then mid to late August, 0:10:18.760 --> 0:10:21.920 maybe even early September, you kind of reconvene and take 0:10:21.920 --> 0:10:26.560 the temperature of their respective teams. Now, Brooklyn may decide, 0:10:26.600 --> 0:10:28.720 you know what, we can't do this. Kevin Durant doesn't 0:10:28.760 --> 0:10:30.440 want to be here. We're not gonna bring him back. 0:10:30.440 --> 0:10:32.559 We're not gonna have a circus on our hand. With 0:10:33.040 --> 0:10:35.800 Durant back in town. They'll say, you know what, Jaylen Brown, 0:10:36.040 --> 0:10:39.319 Derek White throwing Grant Williams, and maybe we can make 0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:42.600 a deal. Or the alternative is the Nets could say, 0:10:42.640 --> 0:10:45.240 you know what, no deal unless we get what we want, 0:10:45.240 --> 0:10:49.360 and the Celtics may be faced with having to decide 0:10:49.840 --> 0:10:52.200 whether or not to include Marcus Smart in a deal. 0:10:52.600 --> 0:10:55.640 I personally think that you could probably get it done 0:10:55.720 --> 0:10:57.959 with Jaylen Brown, Marcus Smart, and a whole bunch of 0:10:58.040 --> 0:11:02.160 draft picks and swaps. But the self understandably don't want 0:11:02.160 --> 0:11:05.120 to do that. Marcus Smart took a lot of criticism 0:11:05.120 --> 0:11:08.880 after the finals, but this is a reigning defensive Player 0:11:08.880 --> 0:11:11.760 of the Year, still in his twenties, still at or 0:11:11.800 --> 0:11:13.440 near the top of his game. They don't want to 0:11:13.480 --> 0:11:15.920 move Marcus Smart, but it may it may come down 0:11:15.920 --> 0:11:18.679 to that decision when we get into late August. Yeah, 0:11:18.679 --> 0:11:21.920 but if you're the Celtics, We're gonna pass on Kevin 0:11:21.960 --> 0:11:24.040 Durant because we don't want to give up Marcus Smart. 0:11:24.679 --> 0:11:30.480 It's two starters, Dan real assets, real value that they'd 0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:33.400 be giving up. It's Kevin Durant. It is Kevin Durant, 0:11:33.400 --> 0:11:37.560 which is why I wouldn't hesitate to trade Jalen Brown, 0:11:37.600 --> 0:11:40.480 who is twenty five and has the potential to be 0:11:40.520 --> 0:11:43.200 an All Star All NBA player for the next ten years. 0:11:43.200 --> 0:11:46.199 It's a risk there because Durant's injury history has to 0:11:46.360 --> 0:11:48.160 leave you a little bit leering. It's gonna be thirty 0:11:48.160 --> 0:11:51.120 four years old in September. But I'd still do it. 0:11:51.880 --> 0:11:55.920 Adding Marcus Smart into that mix, a player that has 0:11:55.960 --> 0:11:59.480 been integral to what they do defensively, that might be 0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:01.800 a little bit too much for the Celtics to swallow, 0:12:01.920 --> 0:12:05.440 especially when you consider that, Yeah, if you believe Vegas, 0:12:05.559 --> 0:12:07.520 I mean, they're going into next season as like the 0:12:07.600 --> 0:12:10.760 co favorite. That's why I wouldn't do anything. Well, no, 0:12:10.880 --> 0:12:14.480 I mean I wouldn't do again, just me speaking, I 0:12:14.480 --> 0:12:17.080 probably wouldn't do both. I wouldn't throw Marcus Smart and 0:12:17.200 --> 0:12:19.800 Jalen Brown into that mix. But if you're just effectively 0:12:19.840 --> 0:12:22.880 flipping Jalen Brown for Kevin Durant plus a Derek White 0:12:22.920 --> 0:12:26.000 plus draft picks, oh I do that. Of course, yes, 0:12:26.160 --> 0:12:28.679 that opens That opens a four year window right there 0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:31.880 for you to win multiple championships. You know, people out there, 0:12:32.760 --> 0:12:35.000 I've taken the opinion of the Celtics should do nothing, 0:12:35.040 --> 0:12:37.640 they should stand pad. I've read that a lot. Because 0:12:37.679 --> 0:12:40.680 the Celtics are considered a favorite. I can tell you, 0:12:41.559 --> 0:12:44.520 even if they are list as a favorite and by oddsmakers, 0:12:44.600 --> 0:12:47.480 Vegas and whoever, there's not a comfort in Boston that 0:12:47.520 --> 0:12:50.320 they are the favorite. They know they were probably a 0:12:50.400 --> 0:12:53.800 Chris Middleton injury away from losing in the second round. 0:12:54.000 --> 0:12:57.120 They were Jimmy Butler jump shot away from losing in 0:12:57.160 --> 0:13:00.120 the conference finals. They're looking around and going Phil at 0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:03.760 Elphie just reloaded. Atlanta is going to be better, Cleveland's 0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:06.240 gonna be better. Hell, they could be one, you know, 0:13:06.360 --> 0:13:09.240 not even major injury away from losing in the first 0:13:09.280 --> 0:13:12.080 round in next year's playoffs. That's how little the margin 0:13:12.120 --> 0:13:16.040 for Erz. You add Kevin Durant, that margin increases significantly 0:13:16.080 --> 0:13:19.200 for next season. He's Chris Mannox, he covers the NBA. 0:13:19.320 --> 0:13:23.960 NBA senior writer for Sports illustrated the Donovan Mitchell situation. 0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:27.160 It certainly was front burner and then it cooled off. 0:13:28.280 --> 0:13:31.000 Are we looking at the same time frame? If something 0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:34.880 happens in a couple of weeks, I think it could 0:13:34.920 --> 0:13:37.960 be that, but it's almost more likely to be even longer. 0:13:39.160 --> 0:13:41.360 I feel like some of these reports that are coming 0:13:41.360 --> 0:13:44.480 out there about Mitchell to the Knicks or it is 0:13:44.480 --> 0:13:49.040 almost wishful thinking on behalf of some Look. I wrote 0:13:49.040 --> 0:13:52.920 this today on si dot com, like this is this 0:13:53.000 --> 0:13:55.320 is exactly the kind of situation Danny Age wants to 0:13:55.320 --> 0:13:58.280 be in if he's not competing for a championship. This 0:13:58.360 --> 0:14:00.559 is the situation he wants to be in to have 0:14:00.920 --> 0:14:05.240 a young, highly talented player that he doesn't really want 0:14:05.280 --> 0:14:07.480 to have on the roster anymore because he wants to 0:14:07.480 --> 0:14:10.800 go into a rebuild with three years left in his 0:14:10.840 --> 0:14:15.400 contract and multiple suitors out there. Like day with Rudy Gobert, 0:14:16.000 --> 0:14:19.440 Danny found someone that was just desperate. He just smells 0:14:19.520 --> 0:14:23.120 desperation on teams really well. And Minnesota came in and 0:14:23.240 --> 0:14:25.840 offered those four draft picks and young players and got 0:14:25.840 --> 0:14:29.760 a deal done. Someone. Whether it's a few weeks from now, 0:14:29.880 --> 0:14:33.000 a few months from now, the trade deadline, someone's going 0:14:33.040 --> 0:14:35.560 to get desperate. There are some obvious choices or candidates 0:14:35.560 --> 0:14:38.520 out there right now. The Knicks, they could get desperate. 0:14:38.520 --> 0:14:41.880 They've wanted Donovan Mitchell for years now. Leon Rose used 0:14:41.920 --> 0:14:46.760 to represent him CIA in New York. Miami. If Boston 0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:49.840 gets Durant and other teams move around but Sixers picked 0:14:49.880 --> 0:14:53.200 up pieces, Miami could say, look, Donovan Mitchell's better than 0:14:53.200 --> 0:14:56.160 Tyler Hero. Will throw Tyler Hero three first round draft picks, 0:14:56.200 --> 0:14:59.480 whatever else on the side that you want Phoenix. Look 0:14:59.480 --> 0:15:01.360 that was a if. Thanks it for Phoenix. In the playoffs, 0:15:01.360 --> 0:15:04.120 they could say, look, Mikal Bridges plus every draft pick, 0:15:04.160 --> 0:15:06.600 we've got to go get you Donovan Mitchell. All I 0:15:06.600 --> 0:15:09.160 can tell you is this, Dan Danny Age's gonna win 0:15:09.240 --> 0:15:11.720 this trade. He is. He's just going to win this trade. 0:15:11.760 --> 0:15:14.600 He's gonna find somebody out there that is just crazy 0:15:14.960 --> 0:15:17.840 and wants to get Donovan Mitchell so bad they're willing 0:15:17.840 --> 0:15:20.560 to give the kind of package that would almost make 0:15:20.760 --> 0:15:24.400 a Durant deal. Look, look tame By in parison. Somebody 0:15:24.440 --> 0:15:27.200 out there is going to do it. Thank you, Chris, 0:15:27.760 --> 0:15:30.760 you got it, Dan. That's Chris Mannox covers the NBA 0:15:30.840 --> 0:15:34.800 for Sports Illustrating, bringing up some interesting thoughts about this. 0:15:35.320 --> 0:15:37.480 And if you're Jalen Brown and they know he's not 0:15:37.560 --> 0:15:40.040 going to be there long term, then maybe you'd start 0:15:40.080 --> 0:15:44.920 to sweeten the deal. I would stand Pat, but it's 0:15:44.960 --> 0:15:47.720 hard to pass up the opportunity to get Kevin Durant. 0:15:47.800 --> 0:15:50.280 It's what do we give up to get Kevin Durant, 0:15:50.960 --> 0:15:56.680 Kde Jason Tatum, Malcolm Brogden, Al Horford, Robert Williams. I mean, 0:15:56.880 --> 0:16:00.360 you could still piece together a good lineup, but is 0:16:00.400 --> 0:16:03.200 that a lineup that's more balanced, has more depth than 0:16:03.240 --> 0:16:06.920 what you've had this past year? Segond break, we will 0:16:07.280 --> 0:16:11.360 talk some football. Jason mccordy played. How many years do 0:16:11.440 --> 0:16:14.240 you play in the NFL? You have that, Todd I 0:16:14.280 --> 0:16:17.840 believe it was thirteen, yes, thirteen seasons, yeah, and now 0:16:17.920 --> 0:16:20.440 joining the NFL network at his thoughts on this Kyler 0:16:20.520 --> 0:16:23.000 Murray situation and more of your phone calls as well. 0:16:23.040 --> 0:16:25.080 We'll take a break. We're back after this on the 0:16:25.120 --> 0:16:29.080 award nominated Dan Patrick Show, and now a message from 0:16:29.080 --> 0:16:32.640 Discover about customer service common sense. When you have a 0:16:32.680 --> 0:16:36.720 credit card question, it's just nice that somebody answers. And 0:16:37.200 --> 0:16:40.280 I've mentioned that I used another credit card, tried to 0:16:40.320 --> 0:16:43.960 call up after Winnie, my puppy, chewed up the credit card, 0:16:44.280 --> 0:16:46.640 and just trying to get a new credit card, just 0:16:46.680 --> 0:16:49.160 trying to get somebody on the phone. It was a nightmare. 0:16:49.800 --> 0:16:52.520 You want to have somebody who's there, a helpful US 0:16:52.600 --> 0:16:55.520 based representative available twenty four to seven.

Let's see Ellen 0:17:30.200 --> 0:17:33.040 and Wisconsin. Hi, Ellen, thanks for holding what's on your 0:17:33.040 --> 0:17:38.600 mind today? Two things, very briefly, One is I'm he 0:17:38.640 --> 0:17:40.760 should be up by now, So I think the proof's 0:17:40.760 --> 0:17:43.399 going to be in the pudding to see what Lincoln 0:17:43.480 --> 0:17:47.000 Riley has to say about Kyler Murray. Riley's got invested 0:17:47.119 --> 0:17:50.040 interest in coming out and defending his guy. But if 0:17:50.080 --> 0:17:53.080 he and the rest of the of that quarterback room 0:17:53.080 --> 0:17:56.840 at Oklahoma is relatively silent, and as the Great Dinners 0:17:56.880 --> 0:17:59.080 Green once said, you know they are who we thought 0:17:59.119 --> 0:18:01.760 they are. Okay, I thought they were. And the second 0:18:01.840 --> 0:18:06.000 thing is the jazz artist send Donovan Mitchell and a 0:18:06.080 --> 0:18:08.919 bullet to the Knicks, because the bullets, the Knicks are 0:18:08.920 --> 0:18:11.160 going to shoot themselves in the foot. They always do, 0:18:11.720 --> 0:18:14.320 you know. So no matter what, Danny As is gonna 0:18:14.359 --> 0:18:16.520 win that. So thanks for kicking my call, all right, 0:18:16.560 --> 0:18:19.720 thank you, Ellen. Sounded like Melissa Ethridge there did a 0:18:19.720 --> 0:18:26.040 little bit. Uh, let's see Rick in South Carolina high reck, 0:18:26.119 --> 0:18:33.200 what's on your mind? Six one, steely hard two fifty three. 0:18:33.640 --> 0:18:38.000 But more importantly, but more importantly, size appropriate hands. Look, 0:18:38.119 --> 0:18:40.639 I think I think the I think we're misreading this. 0:18:40.760 --> 0:18:42.960 I think this force is strong with the guys in Arizona. 0:18:43.000 --> 0:18:45.280 I think they did this on purpose. They put it 0:18:45.320 --> 0:18:48.200 in the contract. He agreed to it. So he's admitting 0:18:48.240 --> 0:18:51.320 as a problem. But more importantly, by leaking it, they've 0:18:51.359 --> 0:18:53.480 got all this information out there about maybe him not 0:18:53.600 --> 0:18:56.040 having about the best discipline in the locker room and studying, 0:18:56.560 --> 0:18:58.720 and so now they've got everybody talking about it. Doesn't 0:18:58.720 --> 0:19:02.800 that put the greatest us are possible on him the change? Well? 0:19:02.840 --> 0:19:04.720 I think he needs to. But I would have kept 0:19:04.760 --> 0:19:07.800 this in house with Cliff Kingsbury. I would have said 0:19:07.840 --> 0:19:09.800 to my head coach, hey, this is on you. You're 0:19:09.800 --> 0:19:13.119 a former quarterback. You know you got to teach Kyler 0:19:13.119 --> 0:19:17.040 how to prepare better, prepare giving me examples here. You 0:19:17.119 --> 0:19:20.679 got guys with half his talent who are preparing twice 0:19:20.680 --> 0:19:24.760 as much. Why because they have to and look at 0:19:24.760 --> 0:19:28.360 the success that these quarterbacks have. But you know, how 0:19:28.440 --> 0:19:30.919 much time do you put in? How do you monitor this? 0:19:31.080 --> 0:19:33.400 They're going to give him an iPad and they're gonna 0:19:33.440 --> 0:19:36.280 go up. You put in three hours and forty two minutes? 0:19:37.359 --> 0:19:40.160 How bad was it? What exactly is it that he's 0:19:40.200 --> 0:19:43.200 missing out on with film study? Can they point out 0:19:43.200 --> 0:19:46.120 examples here? But to put it in the contract, actual 0:19:46.200 --> 0:19:49.640 in actually in the contract. That blew my mind. I'm 0:19:49.680 --> 0:19:53.280 just like, why don't you have a line of communication 0:19:53.359 --> 0:19:56.240 to him to say we need you to prepare better. 0:19:57.320 --> 0:20:00.960 NFL Networks Good Morning Football co ho the newest member, 0:20:01.040 --> 0:20:04.800 Jason mccordy, and the Emmy Award winning They stole it 0:20:04.840 --> 0:20:08.600 from us Good Morning Football airs Monday through Friday, seven 0:20:08.720 --> 0:20:12.760 a m Eastern. Oh, he's now wearing makeup, Jason mccordy 0:20:12.840 --> 0:20:16.600 joining us on the program. Welcome to the dark side there, Jason. 0:20:16.920 --> 0:20:24.280 How are you doing? Getting used to the whole makeup thinking? 0:20:24.359 --> 0:20:27.320 Good morning? But yeah, I'm enjoying us so far. Um, 0:20:27.480 --> 0:20:29.920 all right, let me ask you about the Kyler Murray situation. 0:20:30.240 --> 0:20:32.439 Your reaction when you heard that they actually put this 0:20:32.560 --> 0:20:35.680 in the contract. Yeah, I heard a little bit of 0:20:35.760 --> 0:20:38.320 what you were just saying, and I root as far 0:20:38.359 --> 0:20:41.480 as monetary it. So I've been in the league. We've 0:20:41.520 --> 0:20:46.320 always had the devices others I pass hold on, Jason, 0:20:46.359 --> 0:20:48.520 let me get you a better phone line here, So 0:20:48.600 --> 0:20:54.320 a little crackley there, a little muffled uh, Jeff and Detroit, Hi, Jeff, 0:20:54.359 --> 0:20:58.160 what's on your mind? Hey? What's going on down? What up? Though? 0:20:58.240 --> 0:21:00.760 Thank you for taking my call real quick. Listen. It's 0:21:00.760 --> 0:21:04.399 a cautionary tale when your quarterback doesn't study. Okay, some 0:21:04.480 --> 0:21:07.560 point JaMarcus Russell, I remember the coach saying that he 0:21:07.600 --> 0:21:10.760 gave him the CD said go over this. I mean 0:21:11.080 --> 0:21:14.320 BBD said go over this. This learned these plays. Comes 0:21:14.359 --> 0:21:18.439 back to captain next day said okay, what plays do 0:21:18.480 --> 0:21:20.560 you want to run? We can run them all. Coach 0:21:20.600 --> 0:21:23.320 he said, which play. That's when he knew he was 0:21:23.320 --> 0:21:26.720 in trouble because nothing was on d yep. I agree, 0:21:26.800 --> 0:21:29.639 thank you, Jeff. Somebody brought that up earlier. You know, 0:21:29.640 --> 0:21:33.600 there's certain ways that you can test somebody. I remember 0:21:33.640 --> 0:21:37.240 somebody telling me about giving somebody a book to read. 0:21:37.880 --> 0:21:40.840 There wasn't anything in the book, it was just a cover. 0:21:41.440 --> 0:21:44.000 And they said, how'd you like the book? Loved it? 0:21:44.600 --> 0:21:46.880 Loved it? And I was like, oh, what'd you would 0:21:46.880 --> 0:21:49.119 you love about it? And they were like, uh, I 0:21:49.240 --> 0:21:51.960 never read it. And then they opened up the book 0:21:52.000 --> 0:21:56.440 and said, look, there's nothing in there, just to cover. Yeah, Polly, 0:21:56.600 --> 0:21:58.840 I want to ask wondering about we assume that this 0:21:59.119 --> 0:22:01.160 story was leaked by someone with the Cardinals. I wonder 0:22:01.160 --> 0:22:03.800 if Ian Rapp, reports reporter for NFL Network. I wonder 0:22:03.800 --> 0:22:08.480 if contracts at some level are are public access, like 0:22:08.520 --> 0:22:11.560 where reporters can get a hold of them, and especially 0:22:11.600 --> 0:22:13.480 if you work for the NFL, maybe you have access 0:22:13.520 --> 0:22:16.359 to player contracts. Usually I would assume player contracts are 0:22:16.359 --> 0:22:19.320 pretty boring, but I would wonder from ian standpoint if 0:22:19.520 --> 0:22:21.639 if he has access to all player contracts or this 0:22:21.680 --> 0:22:24.040
