Speaker 1: on YouTube.

Speaker 1: all the people that do sports. We don't need to
Speaker 1: call no name, we don't need to HiPE ourselves up,
Speaker 1: but try to talk down to someone else. But I'm
Speaker 1: just saying this is only because of you, because none
Speaker 1: of this is possible without you. All the things that
Speaker 1: I've been through and oh Joe still by men, Joe
Speaker 1: came back and joined us. All of this is because
Speaker 1: of you, and I personally can't thank you enough. What
Speaker 1: you want to say with Joe, Wait a.
Speaker 4: Minute, I'm listening to the numbers. The numbers is astonishing.
Speaker 4: Now we barely into that in our second year. Now
Speaker 4: we talk about thousands of thousands and thousands of other podcasts,
Speaker 4: many that have started before us, and the fact that
Speaker 4: we're thirteen that's tremendous.
Speaker 5: That is an amazing accomplishment.
Speaker 4: And obviously our success is all because of you that
Speaker 4: continue to watch and support us. Y'all of the meat
Speaker 4: and potatoes to why this thing is going the way
Speaker 4: it is. And I want to thank you from the
Speaker 4: goodness and the greatness of my heart and and and
Speaker 4: and what we just started. And we're gonna get to
Speaker 4: that number one spot.
Speaker 5: We're gonna were gonna get there, that's our goal.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: Joe came on with us last year and uh to
Speaker 1: do basketball, and he came back with us again this year.
Speaker 1: So we want to thank Joe for being a part
Speaker 1: of this. And uh uh A lot of people were
Speaker 1: trying to get Joe, but Joe, he was looking for
Speaker 1: the right situation, some way be himself, be comfortable and
Speaker 1: talk about not only basketball, but he wanted to talk
Speaker 1: about other topics as well. So we think Joe is
Speaker 1: the perfect fit for Nightcap to be a big three
Speaker 1: that's on Wednesday night, and as I said, as we
Speaker 1: move into the new year, hopefully Joe did want to
Speaker 1: come on for an extra night.
Speaker 3: But we'll see how that pans out.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, all you guys that's watching, that's listening, that
Speaker 1: spread us, that spread Nightcap the word of mouth. Oh
Speaker 1: Joe and I and Joe want to personally thank you
Speaker 1: for your support and you'll continue support. But first we
Speaker 1: got to start with some basketball. Joe Rich Paul time
Speaker 1: with the Los Angeles Clippers, and I guess they say
Speaker 1: the second time is not better than the first time.
Speaker 1: Paul sent home by the franchise late last night, in
Speaker 1: the middle of a five game road trip CP three
Speaker 1: rode on Ig just found out I'm being sent home.
Speaker 1: The Clippers then are now saying that they had released Paul,
Speaker 1: saying Chris is a legendary Clipper and had a historic career.
Speaker 1: But I want to make one thing very clear. No
Speaker 1: one is blaming Chris Paul for our underperformance. I accept
Speaker 1: responsibility for the record we have right now, and there
Speaker 1: are a lot of reasons why we've struggled. We're grateful
Speaker 1: for the impact Chris has made on this franchise. According
Speaker 1: to Shams, chris leadership style clash with the team and
Speaker 1: he had not spoken to ty Lou for several weeks.
Speaker 1: Per Chris Haynes, Chris Paul requested a meeting with Lou
Speaker 1: to discuss perception he was a negative presence on the team,
Speaker 1: and Lou refused to meet. Joe, having played seventeen years
Speaker 1: in the NBA, had been one of the leaders at
Speaker 1: a lot of different places. What do you deduce what happened?
Speaker 1: And how did what seemed promising the second time around?
Speaker 1: How did it go so bad so quickly? Well, Uncle Ocho,
Speaker 1: sounds like to me. I played with obviously, I played
Speaker 1: with toront Luke. He was a point guard here in Atlanta.
Speaker 2: I had a chance to play with Chris Paul in
Speaker 2: the USA and two thousand and six, and I played
Speaker 2: with him in Houston. That that one year with James
Speaker 2: Harden was just unbelievable and we lost to the Warriors game.
Speaker 2: What was that seven to the win to the finals.
Speaker 2: So I know I know both of these guys pretty well.
Speaker 2: Uh Chris, Chris Paul is a point guard, is very bullheaded.
Speaker 2: You know, he is a national leader. So if he
Speaker 2: sees something that he doesn't like or he don't think
Speaker 2: that's that's helping the team. Man, he's obviously gonna voice that,
Speaker 2: he's gonna say something. You know, he's just one of
Speaker 2: those guys who can't help it. But Uncle Ocho, y'all know,
Speaker 2: losing exposes a lot, Man, it exposes a lot. And
Speaker 2: when you're getting your butt kicked night in and night out,
Speaker 2: you know, I feel like you have to put the
Speaker 2: blame on someone. And unfortunately, you know, it seems though
Speaker 2: even though they came out with statement and said Chris
Speaker 2: is just has nothing to do with it. You know,
Speaker 2: his our record is why we excusing him from the team.
Speaker 2: But it's just a bad look, man on a guy
Speaker 2: who's already who is a Hall of Fame point guard,
Speaker 2: who's already said that this is last year planned, you
Speaker 2: know what I mean. So it's like, what was so
Speaker 2: bad or egregious that he couldn't stick it out this
Speaker 2: full year?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 2: That's that's yet to be determined. Obviously it'll take one
Speaker 2: of those guys to kind of speak on it. But
Speaker 2: it just seems like an unfortunate situation.
Speaker 3: Man losing does a bill character. It reveals character and what.
Speaker 1: Transpired, what transprit Let me tell you, Let me let
Speaker 1: me tell you from a football perspective, and let me
Speaker 1: know what you think. Joe, Yeah, you see, Chris Paul
Speaker 1: has always been one of the two or three best
Speaker 1: guys on the team. He's an All NBA selection, he's
Speaker 1: an All DEMBIA, a defensive selection. He's one of the
Speaker 1: top two or three point guards year and the year out.
Speaker 1: You see, Oh, Joe and Joe, as you start to slip,
Speaker 1: your voice is not as loud and it can't be
Speaker 1: is loud. So things that you would normally say when
Speaker 1: you was All NBA, you was all defensive, You could
Speaker 1: go to the coach, the man, the meeting and no problem.
Speaker 1: You see, Oh Joe, you know this. The fifty third
Speaker 1: man can't get a meeting with the head coach. The
Speaker 1: one two, three four guy can get a meeting with
Speaker 1: the head coach. And you see what transfired. Yeah, he's saying,
Speaker 1: what's going on? But nobody wants to hear that, Chris,
Speaker 1: because you're not the player. You can't help us get
Speaker 1: out of what's going on. This is what I take from.
Speaker 1: This is what I take I think happened. This thing
Speaker 1: went awry when they gave up all those picks for
Speaker 1: Paul George and they moved heaven and earth to get Kawhi,
Speaker 1: Leonard Kawhi had they won one championship. You see, Toronto
Speaker 1: gave up a lot to get Kawhi. It was well
Speaker 1: worth it because what Joe, they won a championship. You see,
Speaker 1: now the Clippers are farther away from winning a championship
Speaker 1: than when they were before they even got Kawhi. Yes,
Speaker 1: so now we're giving up all these picks. Y'all see
Speaker 1: what Shaye doing on a nightly basis. Not only did
Speaker 1: it win a championship, he's Finals MVP, the league MVP.
Speaker 1: And we had him, Joe, we had him. We had
Speaker 1: a goose that was laying golden eggs, and we gave
Speaker 1: him away. We made the biggest mistake, says ASoP, gave
Speaker 1: us Kingdom away.
Speaker 3: Four horse.
Speaker 1: That's what happens as you get old, and it happens
Speaker 1: to all of us. Were all not gonna have the
Speaker 1: same ability to go speak or to go knock on
Speaker 1: the Boston door and have a conversation with him. It
Speaker 1: will happen to us all. And that is what happened
Speaker 1: to Chris Paul. Chris thought he was from out from
Speaker 1: outside looking at in chat. I haven't talked to anybody.
Speaker 1: I have not talked to anybody. So I'm just saying
Speaker 1: from my standpoint, yes, Chris is looking at himself. He's
Speaker 1: Chris Paul and CP three in name only, not in play.
Speaker 1: So if you can't produce the same way, you can't
Speaker 1: expect to have the same kind of leeweight.
Speaker 3: You can't be that critical.
Speaker 1: Because you could be critical when he was that guy,
Speaker 1: when he was in New Orleans or all these other
Speaker 1: place where he's in Houston and he's a whole KC.
Speaker 3: You could have that. Yeah, when you.
Speaker 1: Play eight ten minutes a night, guys, you don't get
Speaker 1: that kind of you don't get that kind of leeway.
Speaker 1: You don't have that kind of luxury. That's what I
Speaker 1: deduce from what happened in this situation.
Speaker 5: A Joe and Uncle.
Speaker 4: I'm curious obviously with Chris Paul. With Chris Paul playing
Speaker 4: as long as he's playing, being a seasoned veteran in
Speaker 4: the game, understanding what it takes to win. The Clippers
Speaker 4: have had mishaps obviously with the trade, which with Shay
Speaker 4: and other things not going right with the Kawhi trade.
Speaker 5: Why not why not he not be able.
Speaker 4: To express themselves and say, this is what you what
Speaker 4: we need to do if you want to see things
Speaker 4: go in the right direction. Why would they not listen
Speaker 4: to him? Why would they not take heed to what
Speaker 4: he's saying? Does management or do the people in positions
Speaker 4: of power have that much of ego? Are they that
Speaker 4: prideful to let someone that has put the kind of
Speaker 4: work that Chris Paul is done in the league itself
Speaker 4: and being successful Hall of fame at that they won't
Speaker 4: even just listen.
Speaker 2: Oh so it sounds more like of how the message
Speaker 2: is being delivered to me if you ask me, like,
Speaker 2: it's a way you can still lead. Although he's coming
Speaker 2: off the bench, he's trying to be that spark plug,
Speaker 2: that lead off the bench. You know, he can't help,
Speaker 2: you know, to get a little emotional probably, you know,
Speaker 2: throughout this course of the season, man, it's been a
Speaker 2: rough patch for the Clippers early. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2: I watched him play numerous of times, so I know
Speaker 2: the frustration has set in. Like like I'm saying, when
Speaker 2: emotions is high, logic is low, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: So they standon, had a meeting, he released the he
Speaker 2: released the IG post at three in the morning, said
Speaker 2: they were sending him home. From my understanding, they was
Speaker 2: meeting up to that point. That's how long it took
Speaker 2: for them to kind of get an understanding. So it
Speaker 2: ain't just clear cut and dry that they just let
Speaker 2: him go like. It was more to the situation that
Speaker 2: obviously that'll probably never get out to the public, right, Yeah.
Speaker 3: It was a situation, O Joe.
Speaker 1: Maybe there was certain It's hard for me to believe
Speaker 1: this is an isolated ancident, This is a one time thing.
Speaker 1: Maybe Chris being the vocal leader everywhere he's being, was
Speaker 1: being vocal.
Speaker 3: Maybe he was being a little too vocal. Oh Joe,
Speaker 3: I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: A special Teams guy is not gonna say Marvin, I
Speaker 1: need to talk to you, and Marvin opened his door.
Speaker 1: That's not happening. You could do that. Carson could do that.
Speaker 1: Voluntee Burfett could do that.
Speaker 3: MH.
Speaker 1: You have to understand that in the pecking order, everybody
Speaker 1: doesn't Bill Davis. Bill Davis, my college coach, told me
Speaker 1: one time. He showed the team one time. He said,
Speaker 1: I'm an cheat to treat y'all all fair, but I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna treat you the same.
Speaker 3: Do it that a chat? Do with that what you want?
Speaker 1: You know, on the job, the boss might treat y'all
Speaker 1: all fair, but some of y'all said, well, he got
Speaker 1: favorite X, Y and Z, but they don't treat you
Speaker 1: all the same. Kawhi get privileges. I remember Paul Jordan
Speaker 1: even had a conversation. That's what Rob pat bailed them
Speaker 1: the wrong way. Them guys coming late. We got a hold.
Speaker 1: We can't start practice, we can't take off on the bus,
Speaker 1: we can't take off on the plane. Well, that's what
Speaker 1: happens when you're one of the two star players. You
Speaker 1: get listened to. When you're not the star player and
Speaker 1: you're not even playing fifteen twenty minutes a night, it's hard.
Speaker 1: First of all, the guys are not gonna listen to
Speaker 1: you to save or Joe that guy that oh Joe.
Speaker 1: How many times the special team guys said, come on,
Speaker 1: oh Joe, let's go. You looking at him like, if
Speaker 1: you don't sit your ass down to get out my face,
Speaker 1: I can't tell you what somebody told me.
Speaker 3: I'm telling you what I know.
Speaker 2: Absolutely absolutely he At the same time, you know, I
Speaker 2: know CP he understands like, Okay, I got a great
Speaker 2: relationship with James Hard and I got a good relationship
Speaker 2: with Kawhi Leonard. He ain't if it's really something that
Speaker 2: wrong or you know, something that's really messing with him,
Speaker 2: I'm sure he would go to them and hey, look, man,
Speaker 2: we gotta go talk to coach. We gotta go talk
Speaker 2: to t Lou. He'll go to James Harden, He'll go
Speaker 2: to Kawhi. We need to go talk to t Lou
Speaker 2: about this situation. Man, Hey, we gotta be better here.
Speaker 2: We gotta be better that. I just can't see him
Speaker 2: over going over James Harden and Kawhi and then just
Speaker 2: going straight to the source being like, hey man, we
Speaker 2: got an x y Z you know what I mean?
Speaker 2: Like I think I think he has I know he
Speaker 2: has more sense in that, and obviously his value and
Speaker 2: his say so into this through those dudes, obviously it
Speaker 2: will be heard, you know a lot better as though
Speaker 2: it's just coming from him. So I really I'm not
Speaker 2: sure what really got him to this point. But like
Speaker 2: I said, man, I've watched him play a few times
Speaker 2: and it hasn't been pretty.
Speaker 1: The man getting D and p's healthy scratches. It's only
Speaker 1: a matter of time. That is the prideful man. That
Speaker 1: man has played twenty with twenty one NBA season, Joe,
Speaker 1: like I said, he's a top seventy five player all time.
Speaker 1: Hut that sink in for just a second.
Speaker 2: Chat.
Speaker 1: He's getting healthy D and PS, D and P healthy scratch, DMP,
Speaker 1: healthy scratch, not an injury, not coaching decision, healthy stratch.
Speaker 1: So now is telling you now, I don't, Like I said,
Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe you know, Hey, y'all need to
Speaker 1: do this. Y'all need to do that. Man, it's kind
Speaker 1: of hard to tell somebody something when you're not doing
Speaker 1: it or you can't help us do it. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: this situation is bigger than Chris Paul because the Clippers
Speaker 1: right now, Chat and y'all know this, and everybody that's
Speaker 1: listening to us know this. The Clippers are farther away
Speaker 1: from winning a championship right now than when they were
Speaker 1: before they got Kawhi. Kawhi injuries has helped harmed this team.
Speaker 1: Giving up all those draft picks. Do you know, Oto,
Speaker 1: but ok see Thunder still get the clippers number one
Speaker 1: draft pick in twenty six. Think about that, all those
Speaker 1: picks they got, they built this roster.
Speaker 3: They built a team that's.
Speaker 1: Set for the next decade thanks to the Clippers. Thanks
Speaker 1: to the Clippers.
Speaker 5: Yeah, they missed. They missed big time. This is more
Speaker 5: than miss.
Speaker 4: I'm not sure I can think of another word, you know,
Speaker 4: to to definitively describe what the Clippers did when they.
Speaker 5: Let Shay go.
Speaker 4: And Uncle, I asked, I mean Joe, I asked Uncle
Speaker 4: this or earlier. Most of the time, if you if
Speaker 4: you can see you know, scouts and gms, there's there's
Speaker 4: a there's a visual where you can tell a player
Speaker 4: special because certain players look better than other players, even
Speaker 4: if they're young and they're just coming to your team,
Speaker 4: you can already see the promise and the potential in them.
Speaker 5: So I asked, Uncle, well.
Speaker 4: How the hell they even let Shake get out the
Speaker 4: goddamn building anyway? When he's as special as he is,
Speaker 4: You're not gonna tell me, Oh, he's with the Clippers,
Speaker 4: and he's like, I you know what I think we
Speaker 4: can we can do without this individual. And then all
Speaker 4: of a sudden, he goes to Oklahoma and looks like
Speaker 4: he does now one of the best in the league.
Speaker 4: O Joe, Hey, Judy, maybe one depending on who you
Speaker 4: god damn asked, based on preference on the position and
Speaker 4: play you actually liked.
Speaker 5: So what the hell was the Clippers looking at?
Speaker 2: Dang, they didn't see this, bro, So this they see.
Speaker 2: They knew he was gonna be special. They knew he
Speaker 2: was gonna be special. But Ojo, I promise you, they
Speaker 2: ain't see this, bro. They didn't see I'm gonna be
Speaker 2: honest with you. I ain't see this. I thought he
Speaker 2: was a hell of a player, right, but the mega
Speaker 2: starring on that he's jumped himself into the consistency that
Speaker 2: he plays with and being reliable night in and night
Speaker 2: out with thirty plus points at night obviously, the one
Speaker 2: championship looking like they gonna repeat.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yea man and boys twenty one and one man.
Speaker 1: Yes, he couldn't be this. You know why he couldn't
Speaker 1: be this because he wasn't gonna be number one with Kawhi.
Speaker 1: You see he's the unquestioned leader in Okay. See, so
Speaker 1: now if you bring Kawhii in, Kawhi gotta get the ball.
Speaker 1: Yeah no, and Kawhi made it be Let it be known.
Speaker 1: If you don't make this deal to get Paul George,
Speaker 1: I'm going to side with the Lakers and after the
Speaker 1: Davids and James, and if you're the Clipper, you cannot
Speaker 1: allow that to happen because they already had Lebron. Now
Speaker 1: they got another superstar and after the day was the
Speaker 1: pair with him, and you want them to get a
Speaker 1: third win.
Speaker 2: Hey, and not only that, Uncle Ojo, Kawhi and Paul
Speaker 2: George as two La kids. They are in California. So yeah, now,
Speaker 2: I'm sure they wanted to do anything they could to
Speaker 2: make that possible because I'm sure they thought they was
Speaker 2: gonna win the title. Now, I think with Shaye, with
Speaker 2: him being traded, it put a little more often and
Speaker 2: to be a better player, to be a bass leader,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Like, Okay, they traded me,
Speaker 2: all right, bet I'm gonna show him. So I think
Speaker 2: a lot of that is kind of oozing him as well.
Speaker 2: And from getting traded, bro, you learn a lot about
Speaker 2: a lot of people, and not only that yourself. I
Speaker 2: think that that helped catapult him into a start. But
Speaker 2: he's like, all right, every I'm gonna continue to get
Speaker 2: better and better and better next year, you know, not
Speaker 2: the MVP. Now we don't won the championship. Now he's
Speaker 2: working on our second one. You just you don't. You
Speaker 2: never know how things play out. If he's stay in
Speaker 2: LA you know, if he's complacent, if you know what
Speaker 2: I mean. It's just so many different variables that come
Speaker 2: in that come into play. It's like, bro, ain't no
Speaker 2: way y'all could have seen his man, know.
Speaker 1: He could, he wouldn't have been what he is because
Speaker 1: he wouldn't have had the ball like he does.
Speaker 3: He has the ball.
Speaker 1: So you mean to tell me you're gonna bring kawhii
Speaker 1: and give him all of that, make all those concessions,
Speaker 1: and you think you're gonna turn that ball over to
Speaker 1: somebody else. It's not gonna happen. It's not nah, And
Speaker 1: so now he was able to play free O Joe.
Speaker 1: Look at everybody knows who's the number one guy on
Speaker 1: ok see Shaye Okay, jub okay chat everybody else falling
Speaker 1: the line but there's only one.
Speaker 3: You can't you gotta have you gotta have a pecking order.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: That was kind of what happened in Okay. See wasn't
Speaker 1: a Joe. Yeah with Kevin Durant in russ You see
Speaker 1: what happened. Yeah, now you have no issue O Joe
Speaker 1: saying no. I was like, look here if like your
Speaker 1: girls said, look, you know, you know there's a possibility,
Speaker 1: she said. But if you don't do what I asked,
Speaker 1: I want moving me in. I'm moving in with him
Speaker 1: and we right next door to you. That's what the
Speaker 1: Clippers was under the gun.
Speaker 3: O Joe.
Speaker 1: What choice did they have? You got Lebron James, you
Speaker 1: got the biggest name in the NBA, with the biggest
Speaker 1: franchise in the NBA, and they just got Anthony Davis.
Speaker 1: So now you have no choice to give him everything
Speaker 1: that he's asking for. I want this, I want that,
Speaker 1: I want this, Okay, okay, And if you don't, he
Speaker 1: told him plat out. It's being reported that he told
Speaker 1: him plat out. If you don't get Paul George, I'm
Speaker 1: going with the Lakers.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's crazy. Crazy.
Speaker 1: Now he got hurt. They got to the getting to
Speaker 1: the championship game, he get hurt. You remember that the game? Oh, Shoe,
Speaker 1: what what I mean, Joe? They beat Utah if they got,
Speaker 1: if they got and then they have Remember that first
Speaker 1: game against Phi Kawhi goes, Hey, why you get hurt.
Speaker 2: In that series? That's the only reason why they lost
Speaker 2: that series. I think if he wouldn't have got hurt
Speaker 2: in that Phoenix because Phoenix went on to the finals.
Speaker 2: They year, Yes, if they ended up losing to UH Milwaukee,
Speaker 2: but they had a two zero lead and then lost
Speaker 2: four straight. Yeah, but I just think, I just think
Speaker 2: the thing is for me looking at it from the outside,
Speaker 2: looking from outside, and I'm not inside looking out being
Speaker 2: a player and an older player.
Speaker 1: Uh. I give a prime example, what's going on in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 1: Gohoe and the quarterback say, guys, they ain't coming to
Speaker 1: meeting that he called. Yeah, I'm just saying, he said,
Speaker 1: you know, we asked guys to come by.
Speaker 3: Let's be critical of ourselves.
Speaker 4: Right, And that's that That's that's crazy. I mean, just
Speaker 4: just just thinking about it, what Chris Paul is accomplished. Yeah,
Speaker 4: being a seventy being a part of that seventy five
Speaker 4: how you said seventy.
Speaker 3: Five diversity five greatest players play.
Speaker 4: One of the seventy five greatest players of all time,
Speaker 4: a definitely Hall of Famer, still doesn't have the weight
Speaker 4: despite not being as valuable as he once was, where
Speaker 4: his word means nothing at this point, and that's that
Speaker 4: that's crazy.
Speaker 1: I give another example. Look at Tom Brady. Tom Brady
Speaker 1: was the oldest player in the locker room.
Speaker 3: But what was he doing?
Speaker 1: O Joe producing at extremely high level. Chris Paul wasn't
Speaker 1: producing at that level to have that kind of bull
Speaker 1: that megaphone, that megaphone voice. Yeah, you see, I'm just
Speaker 1: telling you how it goals. Yeah, And people say, well,
Speaker 1: what didn't know? But I was still producing at a
Speaker 1: high level. I was still right there. I was one
Speaker 1: or two on the team, lead in yards and catches,
Speaker 1: so I was still producing at a high level. Chris
Speaker 1: Paul a twelve time All Star, six times Steel Champ,
Speaker 1: All Rookie Defensive, nine time All Defensive, seventy fifth Anniversary TINAE,
Speaker 1: five time Assists Champ, eleven time All Being NBA two
Speaker 1: thousand and five, six A Rookie of the Year twenty twelve,
Speaker 1: thirteen All Star game MVP. So the resume, but you
Speaker 1: gotta update that resume with Joe. Yeah, when was the
Speaker 1: last time you saw when the last time we saw
Speaker 1: him an All Star game?
Speaker 2: Joe, It's been it's been a while. Well, he like,
Speaker 2: he likes. He likes second or third in the history
Speaker 2: of the game and assists.
Speaker 3: Right, Uh. I think he third. I think he third
Speaker 3: behind Stockton and Kid.
Speaker 5: Okay, mmm, that's that's crazy and it is funny. It's funny.
Speaker 5: It's funny.
Speaker 4: This happens all the time, just not in sports, in
Speaker 4: life in general.
Speaker 1: Okay, well, he passed, he passed, He passed Jake Kidd.
Speaker 1: Yeah he's second.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Yeah, that's crazy.
Speaker 2: That's a hell of a feat that boy.
Speaker 5: Yes, yes, Oh that's crazy, Bron.
Speaker 2: So hold on, hold on.
Speaker 3: Joe to a different Joe.
Speaker 1: You know, Look, you were what you had accomplished at Atlanta.
Speaker 1: That's Atlanta. When you go into a different situation, you
Speaker 1: move very, very differently every single different situation you went
Speaker 1: into until you found out the landscape of the land.
Speaker 3: You just can't be that same person.
Speaker 5: Yeah, unless you unless you're that guy.
Speaker 1: Lest you Lebron James to go to Miami. He tried
Speaker 1: to take him back. See d Way said, bro. In
Speaker 1: order for us to do what we need to do,
Speaker 1: you got to be him. He goes back to Cleveland.
Speaker 1: It's a no brainer. He takes over. Maybe that rubbed
Speaker 1: some of the guys the wrong way. He goes to
Speaker 1: l A. Well, he's the best player on the team,
Speaker 1: the best player on the team coming in. It's understood.
Speaker 3: What's understood, doesn't need to be explained.
Speaker 1: But when you what not the first, not the second,
Speaker 1: not the third, not the fourth, not the fifth. Best
Speaker 1: and another mistake that made they keep making mistake after mistake,
Speaker 1: and they keep compounding it. You gave up a Norman
Speaker 1: Powell who it should have been an All Star last
Speaker 1: year for Bradley Beal.
Speaker 3: Bradley Bill done for the rest of the.
Speaker 5: Year, that boy averaging what hey, the season just.
Speaker 3: Started, Yeah it ended for him.
Speaker 2: Old he heard him. I think he hurt his knee
Speaker 2: or something, but he done. Yeah, I think it's just him.
Speaker 2: Yeah that Hey, hey, Norman Powell over that everything about
Speaker 2: twenty four to twenty five a.
Speaker 1: Game in absolutely absolutely damn Yeah. You see when you
Speaker 1: make a mistake, O Joe, and you compounded, Yes, you brought.
Speaker 3: I'm trying to figure. I just Joe helped me understand this.
Speaker 1: Joe.
Speaker 3: They saw him in that situation in Phoenix Phoenix Book
Speaker 3: and k D he couldn't be third fiddle.
Speaker 1: You know what, he'll be a better third fiddle here
Speaker 1: behind Kawhi and James Harden.
Speaker 2: I think what the Clippers were thinking. Ok Ojoe, Okay,
Speaker 2: we bring Bradley Bill over. He still got some youth
Speaker 2: in him. He's a little younger than Harden, and in
Speaker 2: Kawhi gonna miss a lot of games. We know that
Speaker 2: we gonna need a guy who can step in and
Speaker 2: maybe get h.
Speaker 5: I say, a guy that can step in a score.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we gonna need a guy who step in to
Speaker 2: give us eighteen to twenty five a night. I think
Speaker 2: that's what the Clippers were banking on. And obviously due
Speaker 2: to injuries, man, he you know, he just ain't been
Speaker 2: able to Brandy Bill was never able to deliver that
Speaker 2: for the Clippers, so it put him in a tough mind.
Speaker 2: Harden has been playing great all year, but it's been
Speaker 2: hard because outside of Zuba. You know, when Kawhi does play,
Speaker 2: you know, he does give him great minutes, but they
Speaker 2: don't have no chemistry continuity. You can kind of see
Speaker 2: it when they play, you know what I mean. So uh,
Speaker 2: and it's just it just it just hasn't worked this
Speaker 2: year for him.
Speaker 3: Man, damn, it hasn't. It hasn't.
Speaker 1: But Joe, I've tried to figure out, how did they
Speaker 1: expect somebody to get healthier as they get older.
Speaker 3: Look at Brandley Bill's history the last couple of years,
Speaker 3: he's been hurt.
Speaker 2: I know they tried. They was optimistic. They try to
Speaker 2: give him a try. It's like, hey, listen, okay, we
Speaker 2: we we we understand that he ain't performed well in Phoenix,
Speaker 2: but we're gonna give him another chance. Look this chance
Speaker 2: we giving him, it ain't gonna really cost us nothing.
Speaker 2: On top of that, we try to bring in CP
Speaker 2: because if not, then you gotta pay Norman pound Max
Speaker 2: dollards to stay close to Max dollars to stay. So
Speaker 2: I think they were trying to avoid that too. So yeah,
Speaker 2: they were trying to cut corners.
Speaker 1: And Pile has gotten better and better, and now you
Speaker 1: see him. When Tyler Hero was out, he was cooking.
Speaker 1: He could I mean, hey, he can take you off
Speaker 1: the dribble, he can spot up, he can shoot the
Speaker 1: three off the drunk. I mean, and now he got
Speaker 1: they got Tyler Hero back. It's just it's just been
Speaker 1: one thing after another for the Clippers, and unfortunately, I
Speaker 1: think that window has slammed shut with Kawhi because Kawhi
Speaker 1: is never gonna.
Speaker 3: Give you enough games Joe to mount anything.
Speaker 1: And then when you least he can play back to backs,
Speaker 1: and in the playoffs, you're playing every you play it
Speaker 1: every other day.
Speaker 3: What you said, after you get past game three.
Speaker 2: It's tund it's trying to blow it up. Get get
Speaker 2: some get some uh some draft capitals.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 3: You got how many more years?
Speaker 1: Because how many more years they got on Kawhi because
Speaker 1: they just gave Kawhi a new deal. Many you gave
Speaker 1: Kawhi new deal you walked away from Paul George, which
Speaker 1: looks like a good thing now, because they wanted to
Speaker 1: do a three year deal. Paul wanted that extra fourth year.
Speaker 1: Philly's gonna be kicking their own self in the ass.
Speaker 1: But Philly's gonna be kicking themselves and the ass with
Speaker 1: Joe Labid also because he got damnedar two hundred million
Speaker 1: in the next three years coming.
Speaker 2: But look, go ahead, Philip Philly. Philly ain't got a
Speaker 2: they they got.
Speaker 1: I blow it up. I mean, I build. I'm feeling
Speaker 1: around Max and Edgecumbe.
Speaker 2: They got a decent problem because they got some young
Speaker 2: boys on that team, and Philly who's gonna go get
Speaker 2: EMBD and and and Paul George ain't playing. They got
Speaker 2: some boys out there who will go get yep. I
Speaker 2: enjoyed watching them. What's the guy that come up come
Speaker 2: off the bench? MAXI O your Quinn Grimes? Yes, yes, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: So they got some promises, they got some promise over there.
Speaker 2: The is don't have to do something, man, I don't
Speaker 2: know what they gotta do. They gotta do something.
Speaker 4: Hey, what what's what's what's the issue? I know Joel
Speaker 4: embiid is his knee. His knee is bothering them with
Speaker 4: Paul George. Paul George need too yep.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think he had a procedure. And I think
Speaker 2: he had a procedure right for the season started too.
Speaker 2: It's kind of set in mount some more okay.
Speaker 1: And you got you got two more years and damn near.
Speaker 1: I think he signed a four years, two hundred and
Speaker 1: twelve million dollars. Yeah, so you you you see what
Speaker 1: you You see what you're looking at right on your You
Speaker 1: look at about fifty million dollars a year.
Speaker 3: Joel Embiid got three years, almost two hundred million. I got.
Speaker 3: He's out. Can't play back to back.
Speaker 1: They're already saying, Joel Embiid is not playing back to back.
Speaker 3: Guess what. He's getting older, He's getting heavier.
Speaker 1: Like I said, I've never seen somebody get healthy as
Speaker 1: they got older.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and Kawhi needs bad too.
Speaker 1: Huh what bad?
Speaker 3: Worse than mine?
Speaker 2: Man?
Speaker 1: Hey, love, Look, the only difference is I'm fifty seven.
Speaker 1: He not even thirty seven.
Speaker 2: A wise man once told me, the older you get, man,
Speaker 2: the lighter you got to be to play this game.
Speaker 2: It's a young absolutely. This was pat Riley. When I
Speaker 2: played in Miami Ojo for a couple of months. Me
Speaker 2: and him said out. He was like, Joe, the older
Speaker 2: you get, the lighter you have to be to play
Speaker 2: this game, man, it's a young man's game, right.
Speaker 1: I told you.
Speaker 3: As I started getting older the league, I got lighter
Speaker 3: and lighter, light and lighter.
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, it was two thirty two, then
Speaker 1: it was two thirty one, then it was twenty nine,
Speaker 1: Then it was twenty eight, then it was twenty six.
Speaker 3: You see, yes, sir.
Speaker 2: Hey ojo. I always tell people, man that the older
Speaker 2: that we get, the harder it is to play the
Speaker 2: games that we love because we have to work a
Speaker 2: lot lot harder than somebody who's younger. You know what
Speaker 2: I mean. Yes, Like as we age and you get
Speaker 2: in your forties, your fifties, just a gear for a
Speaker 2: basketball game, Hey man, you can't be out there playing.
Speaker 2: You got to You got to stretch, warm up. You
Speaker 2: gotta make sure that body rightful. You put on that freeway.
Speaker 1: So I get it. You gotta eat, Joe. You gotta
Speaker 1: two things need to happen, one of the other and
Speaker 1: sometimes both. You gotta work out harder and eat less.
Speaker 1: Sometimes you gotta do both of them. Now you gotta
Speaker 1: work out harder and eat less. Yeah, you gotta. Can
Speaker 1: I do one of the others? Do I gotta do both?
Speaker 1: Or boff? Both?
Speaker 2: Ain't nowhere around it. You got to do both. You
Speaker 2: have to eat. You have to eat less and work
Speaker 2: out harder. That's the way it goes, Like your training has.
Speaker 2: I tell my son this all the time. I know
Speaker 2: you're a lot younger, but I tell I say, man,
Speaker 2: your training has to be far harder than the game itself,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. So when you do play,
Speaker 2: you can make it look easy. You know what I mean?
Speaker 2: If you train hard and going hard, sweating, he got
Speaker 2: your heart rate Like, that's what you want because when
Speaker 2: you touch the floor, the court or the field, man,
Speaker 2: you wanted to look easy. Bro.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Joe y'all did in bad at night. You know
Speaker 1: they're in Atlanta. Hawks fan erupted, where's Chris Paul? Oh man,
Speaker 1: where's Chris Paul?
Speaker 2: He's from right up the street, North Carolina. I bet
Speaker 2: there's a lot of people that they see him play.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, they did.
Speaker 2: A number on us tonight too, didn't it.
Speaker 3: Huh?
Speaker 2: I think they did a number on the Hawks to night.
Speaker 2: The Clippers did. I don't know, I know, Uh yeah, man,
Speaker 2: they got us one fifteen to ninety two.
Speaker 3: Damn damn man.
Speaker 1: Jalen Johnson been playing out his damn minded He didn't
Speaker 1: play tonight. That was that was that was the problem.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, now it makes sense then. Yeah, that boy
Speaker 1: man he been bothering. He gonna be an all side
Speaker 1: of shit too. Yeah, he played like an all star.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 1: Man, them young them young guys are really doing the number, man.
Speaker 2: They are. Yeah, they got some guys out there that's
Speaker 2: playing hard. But I don't want people to lose sight
Speaker 2: of trade not being out there. Man, he's definitely gonna
Speaker 2: be needed because he to me, Uncle o Jo, he's
Speaker 2: the factor. He's the guy who can win you a series,
Speaker 2: who can get you to the next round. Like, yeah,
Speaker 2: it looks great now. You know, throughout the regular season
Speaker 2: we winning games. But man, look when he getting knuck
Speaker 2: cut in time, you know, we gonna we need a
Speaker 2: guy who'd have been there and know what it takes, right, Like.
Speaker 1: Jamal Murray had a monster game, Joe. He had fifty
Speaker 1: two points. He was nineteen or twenty five from the floor,
Speaker 1: ten of eleven from the.
Speaker 5: Three, hold on nineteen for twenty five.
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, fifty two, Hey boy, he was efficient to night.
Speaker 2: Hey when when Uncle Ojo, when Jamal Murray playing like that,
Speaker 2: it's gonna be hard.
Speaker 3: They hard. You can't you can't beat them.
Speaker 2: You can't beat them because look yok still had twenty
Speaker 2: four points, a rebound, thirteen assists, So he's still gonna
Speaker 2: give you his triple double. Now, if you get somebody
Speaker 2: chip in, that's gonna give you forty to fifty.
Speaker 1: Eric, think about it. Aaron Gordon's out go look back
Speaker 1: and look at Aaron Gordon. Since he got there and
Speaker 1: they won the championship, He's been better, shooting the ball
Speaker 1: from outside, played outstanding defense.
Speaker 3: He's that third option.
Speaker 1: And had he not got it had been very interesting
Speaker 1: to see, Joe, what would have happened, What could have
Speaker 1: happened had he not gotten injured that Game seven against KC.
Speaker 1: Next topic, Janni's ante Takunpo is unhappy with the Bucks organization.
Speaker 3: He deleted all mention of the Bucks.
Speaker 1: From his social media pages on Tuesday, and Brian ren
Speaker 1: Horse revealed Jannis had asked to be traded uh to
Speaker 1: the New York Knicks during the offseason. H Jannis's agent,
Speaker 1: Alex Sassatistic saratis it sounds.
Speaker 3: Greek that they.
Speaker 1: Reportedly have begun discussion with Milwaukee regarding his future and
Speaker 1: resolution is expected within the next few weeks.
Speaker 3: Joe can let me start this. Joe, I ain't got
Speaker 3: no problem goud wanting to leave.
Speaker 1: But what I got a problem with guys doing is
Speaker 1: taking shots at guys when they leave. You know what
Speaker 1: I remember when Yanni said, I don't want to go
Speaker 1: somewhere else and team up with somebody else. I want
Speaker 1: them to come to Milwaukee, because see, everybody was taking chance.
Speaker 1: Say Lebron when he went to Miami, everybody, I ain't
Speaker 1: calling no name, but everybody has something to say, and
Speaker 1: I big damn if everybody that has something to say,
Speaker 1: look at be careful, You'll become the very thing you despise.
Speaker 1: My grandpa used to always say this, Joe, be careful, boy,
Speaker 1: you'll become the very thing you despise most in a person. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because you because you hate a liar, you will become one.
Speaker 1: You hate a thief, you will become one. You hate
Speaker 1: a cheat, you will become one. Be careful, boy, you'll
Speaker 1: become the very thing you despise the most in a person.
Speaker 5: Not look at him now, but uncle, he frustrated.
Speaker 1: Lebron was.
Speaker 3: For everybody had something to say, right right, Joe, Oh, Joe.
Speaker 1: I ain't got no problem with God. I wanting to
Speaker 1: go none whatsoever. But guess what Lebron did. Guess what
Speaker 1: KD did. Now they traded KD. I don't know if
Speaker 1: KD wanted to go. Lebron played every last contract out.
Speaker 1: He was done with Cleveland, his contract that ended, he
Speaker 1: went to Miami. He gave Miami four years. He went
Speaker 1: back to Cleveland for four years. He's been in LA
Speaker 1: now seven eight years, played out every last contract. But
Speaker 1: everybody took their shots. I don't go I don't want
Speaker 1: a team up with somebody else. I want to be
Speaker 1: right here. Okay, yeah, wait listen, Now you want to
Speaker 1: go to the Buck, Now you want to go to Knicks.
Speaker 1: What's the next guy? Jaylen Bronson, Karl Land, through the towns,
Speaker 1: Michale Bridges, oh g Ananoby, Mitchell Robinson.
Speaker 3: Now, obviously you gonna have to get some of those
Speaker 3: guys up.
Speaker 4: But n And the funny thing about it is it's
Speaker 4: easy to say all the right things when you're winning.
Speaker 5: It's easy to say all the right things when you're happy.
Speaker 5: That's the easy part, Joe, huh.
Speaker 4: I mean it's easy to smile and look at other
Speaker 4: people that you see bounced around and and doing things
Speaker 4: that God damn it, doing things that you wouldn't do,
Speaker 4: doing things that you wouldn't do.
Speaker 5: Because I'm just go to my laptop camera. Man, I'm
Speaker 5: sick of turning this thing off off and on.
Speaker 1: I know KD was not traded to the Warriors. KD
Speaker 1: was traded KD traded to the was traded to UH Phoenix,
Speaker 1: and was traded to the Rockets, So he was traded twice.
Speaker 1: Chat Yeah, go ahead, go ahead, O Joe, No, no,
Speaker 1: I was finished.
Speaker 4: I'm just saying, I mean every everyone, everyone. When when
Speaker 4: things are convenient, you know, when the opportunity you're in
Speaker 4: at that moment, you're happy, well god, yeah, you're.
Speaker 5: Gonna say everything under the sun.
Speaker 4: When you see someone else doing something that you probably
Speaker 4: wouldn't do, the many things go sour for you, and
Speaker 4: inside the house started to stink. What's the first thing
Speaker 4: you want to do? Oh man, I got it. I
Speaker 4: got to get up out of here, and you forget
Speaker 4: about everything you said about somebody else that would doing
Speaker 4: the exact same thing.
Speaker 5: You ready to do? You ready to stinking house because
Speaker 5: it's smelled.
Speaker 3: Joe.
Speaker 1: Was that sitting at the Joe asking to see you
Speaker 1: this this thing with Yanni's injuredous cat.
Speaker 3: Did you see when he just.
Speaker 5: He just sent there ain't ain't nothing wrong with him,

Speaker 2: They won, but he didn't play. But like three four minutes.
Speaker 3: But I want you to see this, Joe Temper.
Speaker 2: What you're thinking, Okay.
Speaker 5: It was a non contact, non contact.
Speaker 2: Hold on what you're trying to say?
Speaker 5: Uh no, he he just went down.
Speaker 3: He was down. I don't want you to look at it, Joe,
Speaker 3: That's all I'm saying. I want you to look at it.
Speaker 4: Ain't nothing wrong with him.
Speaker 2: Ain't listen. But what happens? What happens when that girl
Speaker 2: on Instagram started taking them pictures down and hunt a boyfriend?
Speaker 1: All, it's over a rap. That's over a rap, asked,
Speaker 1: said she sent it to you. I G it's over,
Speaker 1: you know, And and that's the thing that's why you Hey, look,
Speaker 1: y'all need to be first of all, you need to
Speaker 1: be really really locked in to start posting. Y'all date somebody.
Speaker 1: Y'all go out of one day and you already got
Speaker 1: him up. My heart, my rib my backbone. God gave
Speaker 1: me everything I asked for, and a week later, I
Speaker 1: guess God took it back.

Speaker 1: Uh oh, he works to be out, Oh Joe, chill
Speaker 1: cheer yeah, yeh cheer cheer chih yeah yeh.
Speaker 2: Hey. Look, I am about as bad as though.
Speaker 1: For I'm trying to figure out, uh, I'm trying to
Speaker 1: figure out where these guys be coming up with these
Speaker 1: injuries now, everybody getting cam strings, oh Joe in the NFL, the.
Speaker 4: N B, A m l B. I'm like, damn, but listen,
Speaker 4: you know what I listen. I ain't even gonna say nothing. Man,
Speaker 4: I ain't even say every time I say something, everybody laugh.
Speaker 5: Tell me be quiet.
Speaker 2: Okay, hold on, hold on, hey, hey, hold on, because
Speaker 2: that's a non contact injury, and it's just like, ain't
Speaker 2: nobody touching him? He just went.
Speaker 5: You know, you know what it is?
Speaker 3: He frustrated.
Speaker 1: When you start hearing rumbling, when you start hearing rumblings
Speaker 1: about somebody in a relationship, Oh Joe, it's just a
Speaker 1: matter of time because somebody done saying something to somebody,
Speaker 1: and somebody will put that information out.
Speaker 2: Yes, sir, Hey, hey, this might be a little more
Speaker 2: serious than what we think though.
Speaker 4: Okay, Ojo, what that injury that ain't no injury are
Speaker 4: you talking about on the inside?
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, like, Joe. But here's the thing, Joe,
Speaker 2: let me ask you this.
Speaker 1: You go down like that and the training staff don't
Speaker 1: come over, your teammates come help you up?
Speaker 5: Come on, Joe, you know what that is? I can
Speaker 5: I can tell you what I can tell you what
Speaker 5: that is.
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm saying, Joe, when you went down, did that?
Speaker 1: Did the trainers down come or did your teammates come
Speaker 1: get you?
Speaker 4: Can I tell you what that was? He Joe, can
Speaker 4: I tell you what that was?
Speaker 2: Joe?
Speaker 4: I don't want to risk injury in myself and lessen
Speaker 4: than my trade value. So I'm gonna go down and
Speaker 4: pretend to have a non contact injury until they get
Speaker 4: this trade in place.
Speaker 2: Nah, I'm sorry, man, I don't see I don't think
Speaker 2: Gianni's moved. He don't take me for that type of guy.
Speaker 2: Now allow me the right to be wrong.
Speaker 4: Well, Joe, I just told you inside the house is
Speaker 4: smelled right now.
Speaker 5: I don't want to be inside the house while smell.
Speaker 2: That man worked too hard, bro he I don't see
Speaker 2: that man just giving up on their team like that.
Speaker 2: I think he I think this injury is far more
Speaker 2: serious than what we can anticipate right now.
Speaker 5: Joe, Joe, you don't want to bet none, Joe.
Speaker 4: I'm telling you, Joe, understand that most of the time,
Speaker 4: most of the time, when you see an individual like that,
Speaker 4: of course you will.
Speaker 1: They said it's his calf. Obviously, Oh Joe, they're gonna
Speaker 1: do it. They're gonna do an m R. They're gonna
Speaker 1: do a full battery of test. They said it was
Speaker 1: his calf. They said, I guess they I guess. They
Speaker 1: said the tendon, the tendant is intact. Yeah, yeah, it's
Speaker 1: They said it was a calf string, O, Joe.
Speaker 3: So that's what we gotta go by.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 3: You know a lot of people like it.
Speaker 1: Uh uh, you know sometimes when guys want to get
Speaker 1: out of a situation. But like I agree with you, Joe,
Speaker 1: I don't know. Yann's doesn't take me for that type
Speaker 1: of a guy. But he doesn't take me for a
Speaker 1: guy that wanted to be moved during the season. Exactly
Speaker 1: what Cham's and what a windy Brian Windhorse is saying
Speaker 1: that he asked.
Speaker 3: To be moving for the season. Yeah, so if if.
Speaker 1: What they're saying, if what they're reporting is true that
Speaker 1: he asked out during the season because they got him
Speaker 1: Dame in that situation that worked.
Speaker 3: They bought Dame out.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Now here's the thing, Myles Turner.
Speaker 1: He signed with Milwaukee to be with Yanni's there two
Speaker 1: months and Yanni's won out and now he's stuck. He
Speaker 1: could have stayed in in in indeed, but well listen,
Speaker 1: if he already told you before the season, look, man,
Speaker 1: I want y'all trade Man, y'all didn't do it.
Speaker 2: We went with it. I'm not gonna give up on y'all,
Speaker 2: but I still want y'all to know. Look, I don't
Speaker 2: wipe my Instagram clean with y'all, y'all, so that one sign,
Speaker 2: this one sign, ojo that one sign. Now next time
Speaker 2: gonna be I'm just gonna have to go and come
Speaker 2: public and tell.
Speaker 3: You, no, he WoT He definitely don't strike me off
Speaker 3: that type of guy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm saying, if he really want to get out
Speaker 2: of there, that's how he gonna be able to get out,
Speaker 2: He's gonna have to he gonna have to voice it.
Speaker 2: He gonna have to say it.
Speaker 1: So what you're gonna have to let me ask your question, though,
Speaker 1: let's just say he wanted to go to the Knicks.
Speaker 1: You're gonna have to give up Carl Anthony Towns. You're
Speaker 1: gonna have to give up Mikel Bridges. You're gonna have
Speaker 1: to give up Oh Giannanoby. You're gonna have to give
Speaker 1: up Draft Picks. Is him and Jalen Brunson. Jayalen needs
Speaker 1: the ball, Y'allni needs the ball? Is that enough?
Speaker 2: I think if you New York, you try to find
Speaker 2: a way to keep Brunting and Cat Oh no way, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I say you want to try to find a way
Speaker 2: to keep them too, because if you can keep them too,
Speaker 2: and and him now yeah, and just kind of stay
Speaker 2: out there on the three. He know he gonna shoot
Speaker 2: threes anyway. You know what, you got, You a great
Speaker 2: rim roller, live thrower, downhill guy. But you're gonna probably
Speaker 2: have to give up Michel and and and and O
Speaker 2: g like you, You're gonna have to give up both
Speaker 2: of them if you're giving up Cat, because I need
Speaker 2: a superstar. And I'm not saying I think casts a star.
Speaker 2: I don't think he's a superstar. But you're gonna have
Speaker 2: to give up Cat.
Speaker 1: Wow, man, Oh, I think Michael Bridges is fine. I
Speaker 1: think o g but they ain't really selling no tickets
Speaker 1: like that. Cat was the number one overall draft pick
Speaker 1: I got. I got to have him because and and
Speaker 1: and and and and with with uh Bronson and and uh.
Speaker 1: Based on the Eastern Conference this year, that might be enough. Now,
Speaker 1: Orlando's gonna have something to say about that. Orlando's gonna
Speaker 1: have something to say about that. When they get buying
Speaker 1: Carroll Back and Wagner's playing, the Southern is playing the
Speaker 1: way blackets playing.
Speaker 3: They got Wendell Carter. Oh no, no, no no, They're gonna
Speaker 3: have something to say now.
Speaker 1: Detroit gonna have something to say to Detroit, gonna have
Speaker 1: something to say. Cleveland. I got to see Cleveland because
Speaker 1: Cleveland do this to me every year. Donovan Mitchell do
Speaker 1: this to me every year. He get me so damn
Speaker 1: hype and then he let me die. It's it's it's
Speaker 1: the in Cleveland is more of Darius Garland for me.
Speaker 1: If he can stay healthy and be that guy next
Speaker 1: to Donovan. Yeah, but if he can't stay healthy, it's
Speaker 1: like he'd be out there fighting against four five different
Speaker 1: dudes by himself.
Speaker 2: It's just it's too much it's too much.
Speaker 1: I just think I just think the Cat's gonna be
Speaker 1: a part of any trade. Now you got Josh Hart, uh,
Speaker 1: but I think I think Cat, McHale, Bridges and and
Speaker 1: and O G.
Speaker 3: I think they're getting those guys that.
Speaker 2: Said if you Milwaukee, yes, you won't Cat. If you're
Speaker 2: the Knicks, you want to try to keep Brunton and
Speaker 2: Cat and I don't know how you do that and
Speaker 2: bring you in Giannis, but you want you want to
Speaker 2: try to keep them to to have with him because
Speaker 2: just him and Braxton.
Speaker 1: I want Hi about the East. I send him to
Speaker 1: the West. Okay, who got something from in the West?
Speaker 1: Mm hmm? I want him in the East. Why would
Speaker 1: I do that? And I got to see this man
Speaker 1: at least four times. You're Joe, he done brought you
Speaker 1: a championship and we played him handsomely. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't know what else y'all want from because they're
Speaker 2: not gonna They're not a championship in spying team right now.
Speaker 2: So I don't really know what you want from him.
Speaker 2: I mean, at some rights, you know, at some point,
Speaker 2: all good things got to come to an end, right, Yeah.
Speaker 5: That's true.
Speaker 4: And listen to ye he asked por trade at the
Speaker 4: beginning of the season, and the fact that, hey, listen,
Speaker 4: the fact that obviously we all known people who who
Speaker 4: you would think would never do certain things and do
Speaker 4: something not of character, something that's very uncharacteristic of who
Speaker 4: they present themselves as publicly. Yeah, yes, okay, when it come,
Speaker 4: when this comes out, and I tell y'all, this is
Speaker 4: his way out that there's nothing wrong with him. He's
Speaker 4: going to make sure that he doesn't lose trade value
Speaker 4: by injuring himself.
Speaker 5: Right now, I guarantee you, and I want, I want,
Speaker 5: I want those apologies.
Speaker 3: For what about this?
Speaker 2: O Joe?
Speaker 3: What about to the Mavericks Anthony Davis and another.
Speaker 2: Player Anthony David, Anthony Davis.
Speaker 3: Anthony Davis, Klay Thompson in the first round pick?
Speaker 2: Milwaukee ain't taking that. Milwaukee ain't taking that. Okay, now,
Speaker 2: if I'm Milwaukee, I ain't even taking that. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: Well, you WoT hey, Joe, Oh Joe, you hear what
Speaker 1: he's saying. But he WoT the Knicks to give up
Speaker 1: a Bridges and og and keep Cat. So Cat, Johannis
Speaker 1: and and Bronson, you're gonna you're gonna have to give
Speaker 1: up o g Uh, Robinson, Michale Bridges, some draft picks.
Speaker 3: They gonna want Cat. I'm gonna tell you they gonna
Speaker 3: want Cat.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm I'm cured. I'm curious to see how this
Speaker 5: is gonna play out. This is Cat, This is interesting.
Speaker 2: They probably do want them. But if I'm the Kniggs,
Speaker 2: I'm trying, like you know what, not to give him up.
Speaker 1: Right, It's tough, and I think the thing is Joe
Speaker 1: and O Joe is that we've got to get out
Speaker 1: of this notion. Man, Barry would have never requested the trade.
Speaker 1: Magic would have never Jordan of this one. It is
Speaker 1: a new day, It is a new era. I never
Speaker 1: would have thought eggs would cost eight dollars an effing dozen. Man,
Speaker 1: I never thought cigarettes would be ten twelve dollars a pack.
Speaker 1: It is a different time. You got to think differently.
Speaker 1: You can't use that same he would have never were done. Yes,
Speaker 1: my grandmother and people's grandmother stayed through no matter what.
Speaker 3: It wasn't no divorce.
Speaker 4: Now, hey, at the slightest I'm out of here, deuces.
Speaker 1: So we've got we've got to stop this notion. Our
Speaker 1: our former great players wouldn't do this because it's a
Speaker 1: new day social media. The landscape of professional sports is
Speaker 1: different now. It really, it really is. And so heyst
Speaker 1: involved with the Times. Joannis in New York could be crazy?
Speaker 4: Oh no, god, yeah, that that'd be nasty.
Speaker 3: What Johannis and Wenby with Castle?
Speaker 2: See they got they do san Antonio got some ancense.
Speaker 2: They got some guys over there who Milwaukee wouldn't mind taking.
Speaker 2: They got a few of them over there.
Speaker 4: That's not fair, now, what's not how you're gonna have
Speaker 4: Yiannis and wouldn't be on the same goddamn team.
Speaker 2: Come on, man, hey man, they got they got some
Speaker 2: guys to give up who can come over to Milwaukee
Speaker 2: and make some things happen.
Speaker 1: Yeah they do. Yeah, I think. Look, I think there's
Speaker 1: gonna be some guys. Would I be shocked if John
Speaker 1: got traded?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 3: If I would I be shocked if you got traded?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm not gonna be shocked either one
Speaker 1: of those guys get moved. Both places are kind of like, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I've seen enough. Josh stays hurt and he ain't learned
Speaker 1: this lesson. Yeah, Hey, hey.
Speaker 4: Listen, hey, Joe, I know I know where're gonna learn
Speaker 4: this lesson at where? It ain't nothing like coming on
Speaker 4: down here to the to this military base. Down here,
Speaker 4: are you on some structure?
Speaker 3: Discipline?
Speaker 4: Come on down here this military base. It's just like
Speaker 4: just like the Marines. We're gonna get you right.
Speaker 2: Hey, Hey, I don't mind the shake up, uncho. You know,
Speaker 2: I don't mind seeing guys on the move, you know,
Speaker 2: especially some of these big names. So I think need
Speaker 2: a fresh start. Yeah, change job playing in Miami. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and that's a different animal, Ocho.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Yeah, I'm worried. I'm listen. I'm gonna make sure
Speaker 5: you stay focused.
Speaker 1: No, Joe'll tell you what you you went to someone
Speaker 1: that was somewhere that was really structured. How different was
Speaker 1: it for you where you couldn't be yourself? How was
Speaker 1: different was that for you playing in New England as
Speaker 1: opposed to Cincinnati where you got to be o Jo
Speaker 1: Sinko and when you went to Newton you had to
Speaker 1: be Chad Johnson.
Speaker 5: I mean, it was it was cool. It was cool.
Speaker 4: It was it was cool, and it's that that experience
Speaker 4: for me, honestly, being and I understood my role once
Speaker 4: I got there.
Speaker 5: I wasn't never be Ocho.
Speaker 2: You hear me, Joe, Yeah, I wasn't.
Speaker 4: There to be that chat of old where I had
Speaker 4: the shoulder the brunt of everything on my shoulders when
Speaker 4: it came to us from an offensive perspective. When I
Speaker 4: got there, boy, they was loaded. So in my mind,
Speaker 4: I'm like, well, what the hell y'all brought me here for.
Speaker 4: There's only one receiver that I know that went to
Speaker 4: New England who can play on the outside and was
Speaker 4: able to dominate about to go crazy, and he's one
Speaker 4: of the best all time, and I don't compare now
Speaker 4: where close to that individual.
Speaker 5: So I's in a way I was there.
Speaker 4: I was at peace for what you want me to do, okay,
Speaker 4: and I definitely wann't fing to complain, you know, because
Speaker 4: I understood.
Speaker 5: I understand.
Speaker 4: I understood that patriotate. I understood that. So I went
Speaker 4: in there. Hell you got you got grownk Joe. Look
Speaker 4: who they got Joe, they got Gronk, they got Aaron Henandez,
Speaker 4: they got Wes Welcome, they got Julian Edelman, Dion Branch.
Speaker 5: It was it was one mode, It's it's somebody else.
Speaker 2: I'm like, well, God, what man, what.
Speaker 5: They they traded me here and they got only god damn,
Speaker 5: they got everything.
Speaker 2: But you want to lead your imprint though, you want
Speaker 2: to lead your imprint though you you want to contribute,
Speaker 2: You want to be a factor on the squad, you.
Speaker 4: Know what I mean.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it wasn't like you was there like I'm just chilling.
Speaker 5: No no, no, no, no no no.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know I wanted to.
Speaker 3: I want to.
Speaker 4: I'm a competitor, Joe. But but Joe, you know, it
Speaker 4: wasn't going how I wanted to go.
Speaker 5: And boy, I wanted finish. Say now, goddamn word, but hey,
Speaker 5: not not over there?
Speaker 4: Huh.
Speaker 5: Hey, Joe, I remember I remember Randy saying something in
Speaker 5: the media I think about, you know, contraction right right on.
Speaker 3: It was like contraction by money.
Speaker 5: Boy, Joe, he was going in twenty four hours. Oh
Speaker 5: hell hell nod.
Speaker 1: If I'm not mistaken, I think they traded him back
Speaker 1: to they traded him back to Minnesota.
Speaker 3: If the Minnesota traded him to Tennessee.
Speaker 4: Tennessee, hey, Joe, he coming off of twenty three, twenty
Speaker 4: three toestdown season, Brock twenty three toestdown season, they know
Speaker 4: I would love to be compensated a little bit more
Speaker 4: if I'm not mistaken.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was after the That might have been.
Speaker 1: He was traded before you got to Ojo so coause
Speaker 1: two thousand and seven, two thousand and eight. I think
Speaker 1: he got traded in two thousand and nine back to Minnesota. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because remember o Jo, he sat out and then he
Speaker 1: ended up going to San Francisco and San Francisco went
Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl and played the Ravens.
Speaker 5: Yeah mm hmm.
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is joe One thing about it. It was
Speaker 4: a wonderful experience. It was a wonderful experience. And I think,
Speaker 4: honestly for Joah being in that structuring environment where it's
Speaker 4: a little bit more tight knit, you know, having someone
Speaker 4: like pat Riley who rules with the iron fist, it
Speaker 4: can be a good thing for him and adding that
Speaker 4: structure that he doesn't and that discipline doesn't have right now,
Speaker 4: or that many may think he doesn't have right now.
Speaker 2: Ojo, that Miami culture that Heat coached. Let me tell
Speaker 2: you something, man, they got pre practiced before practice. Yes,
Speaker 2: and if practice is at eleven, pre practice is at
Speaker 2: about nine thirty ten o'clock, Yeah, that ain't They ain't
Speaker 2: walking in and now that's ready to go on the floor. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you got d Wade u d. All these dudes are
Speaker 2: in pre pre practice. So everybody's in pre practice. It's
Speaker 2: just kind of it's just kind of the heat wave.
Speaker 2: That's how it is. Man. It's like them dudes work. Man,
Speaker 2: they put the work in, bro, they ain't looking for
Speaker 2: nobody who's coming in And you two swagged out to
Speaker 2: get in here two three hours before practice. Man, you're
Speaker 2: trying to accomplish something.
Speaker 5: No, he like, he owned that. He owned that.
Speaker 4: You know that change the scene where you know that,
Speaker 4: that's that's that's what he wants.
Speaker 5: You know, young boy. Young boy want to be great, okay, and.
Speaker 4: You know he can't. He can't do what he want
Speaker 4: to do out there in Memphis. And Memphis is a
Speaker 4: great place. Now, it's a great.
Speaker 1: Hard going to an unstructured being coming from an unstructured
Speaker 1: environment being structured, it's hard. Yeah, it's hard, oh, Joe.
Speaker 1: That's why the military. You can't. You can't be in
Speaker 1: there without discipline. They get they're gonna break you. Do
Speaker 1: you understand all the people that go ahead.
Speaker 4: I don't for to say the military, Joe, the Army,
Speaker 4: the Marines, the Navy. You have no choice but to
Speaker 4: have discipline, because one mistake there is no coming back.
Speaker 4: This ain't called This ain't call of duty, Joe. One
Speaker 4: mistake out there when it matters most, when it actually counts,
Speaker 4: you don't get you. Once you get hit, that's you're done.
Speaker 4: And then you're responsible for everybody else's life as well.
Speaker 4: So you have no choice but to be structured and discipline.
Speaker 4: You can't make mistakes.
Speaker 1: Like Colonel Jeffson asked, Kathy, have you ever put your
Speaker 1: life in someone else's hands, man's man and ask him
Speaker 1: to put you his life in your hands?
Speaker 3: We follow rules or men die.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Hey, I don't even I don't even like the sound
Speaker 4: of that.
Speaker 5: That's too much pressure.
Speaker 4: I don't even like those expectations in the way it sounds, Joe,
Speaker 4: look like the way it sound. I don't want to
Speaker 4: be responsible for your life sometimes, Joe.
Speaker 5: Uh, you know, And.
Speaker 4: I'm talking about on a smaller scale where it's not
Speaker 4: life or death like in life.
Speaker 1: Football, in basketball, where you ask the man that's playing
Speaker 1: next to you to put his trust in you that
Speaker 1: you're gonna do what you're supposed to do. Okay, you
Speaker 1: ask that man that's on the court next to you, Joe,
Speaker 1: to put his trust in you and you put your
Speaker 1: trust in him. You're right, it's not to the magnitude
Speaker 1: of life for death, but wins and losses, and it
Speaker 1: feels like life and death because a lot of times
Speaker 1: when you're losing, it's worse than death because you gotta
Speaker 1: wake up the next day.
Speaker 2: Come on, now, Yeah, so much processing losses a lot
Speaker 2: harder than others.
Speaker 4: Bro.
Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely definitely.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the more you put into it, the harder.
Speaker 2: It is, absolutely right.
Speaker 3: We understand their casualties, you know. A but.
Speaker 1: I just I could have been to the military because
Speaker 1: I grew up very disciplined, ary structured, so it's been
Speaker 1: nothing for me. You definitely can definitely go because Barti player,
Speaker 1: Bardi Porter would have it any other way, no other way.
Speaker 4: Yeah, A Joe, A Joe now that now not that
Speaker 4: on on the topic obviously, keeping everything in the context
Speaker 4: and perspective. Talk about going to the military, Joe, you
Speaker 4: saw full metal jacket.
Speaker 2: I have, but I can't really remember him.
Speaker 4: Private power private today. I would have been private power.
Speaker 4: Were put in the military, I'm private power.
Speaker 1: I'm mess.
Speaker 5: Oh that's that's a beautiful.
Speaker 1: When they ordered the cold red, Yeah, when saying with
Speaker 1: hold up Santiago, Yeah, Santiago.
Speaker 2: You know when.
Speaker 1: Santiago kept messing up and the ordered the cold red did.
Speaker 5: He got he got to go?
Speaker 1: Yeah, he had a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom.
Speaker 1: You weep for Santiago. You curse the Marines. You have
Speaker 1: that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing why.
Speaker 3: I no.
Speaker 1: Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives by existed in
Speaker 1: grotesque and incomprehensive. Do you save lives you don't want?
Speaker 1: The truth could deep down to places that parties you
Speaker 1: don't talk about. You want me on that wall, you
Speaker 1: need me on that wall. We use words like honor, cold, loyalty.
Speaker 1: We use these words of a backbone of a lifetime
Speaker 1: spent defending something. You use them as a points line.
Speaker 1: I have at the time, nor the inclination to explain
Speaker 1: myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the
Speaker 1: blanket of freedom that I provide and then questions the
Speaker 1: matter in which I provided. Come on, whether you said
Speaker 1: thank you anyone on your way, or pick a weapon
Speaker 1: up and standing posts. Either way, I don't give a
Speaker 1: damn what you think you are entitled to did you
Speaker 1: order the Cold Red? I did my job? Did you
Speaker 1: order the cold Red? You don't run? I did, And
Speaker 1: so that's what you're up against.
Speaker 2: Hey, hey, uncle too. When I was in high school,
Speaker 2: I don't know about job, but you know they had
Speaker 2: they had they had an army people.
Speaker 5: That set out yeah all TC.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah. They try to recruit you coming out of
Speaker 2: high school, right, yeah, join the army. So you know
Speaker 2: you got your homeboy, they'll sign you up without even
Speaker 2: telling you. So look, I got people calling my Joe Johnson.
Speaker 2: Yes it is him, uh, you know, trying to recruit
Speaker 2: me to come to the army. Boy, Please, I ain't
Speaker 2: going on army. Look, I'm my mama's only child. I'm
Speaker 2: gonna stand right.
Speaker 1: And then you wouldn't get oh Joe, And then Joe,
Speaker 1: you wouldn't get drafted because you're the only son, right,
Speaker 1: That's what.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to tell you. I'm I told him that.
Speaker 1: But if you got a bunch of songs, oh well
Speaker 1: your ass grass, you can get off my line.
Speaker 3: This that's crazy.
Speaker 4: Hey, hey, I don't mean to go off topic, but
Speaker 4: but you you you you took theater.
Speaker 5: You took theater in the artist like me, no, how
Speaker 5: you how you know that whole that whole line.
Speaker 1: Uh, I just have a I have an amazing ability
Speaker 1: to recall him. For I've always had that ability, and
Speaker 1: I think it came from my grandfather because he put
Speaker 1: a lot of pressure on us because back then we
Speaker 1: didn't have no cell phone. So my grandfather would get
Speaker 1: somebody's number and you would say, tell it to them.
Speaker 1: Two boys it would be and my brother, so we
Speaker 1: would have he would tell us the guy or the
Speaker 1: person would tell us the number, men spanking the number,
Speaker 1: and we'd have to recall it once we got home. Now,
Speaker 1: there are a lot of times we weren't going right home.
Speaker 1: We go to somebody's house, so we go do something
Speaker 1: else and by the time he get home, he's like,
Speaker 1: hey boy, what was that number of such and such older?
Speaker 3: And we'd have to recall it.
Speaker 1: So ever since then, I've always been able to recall information.
Speaker 1: And that's why like plays and stuff, I could just recall,
Speaker 1: recall it. And so I've always had that ability to
Speaker 1: have tremendous recall.
Speaker 5: And that's really dope.
Speaker 4: I don't think people understand how dope that is, the
Speaker 4: fact that you can still recall that moment one of
Speaker 4: the better scenes from that movie. Oh yeah, obviously the
Speaker 4: most important scene that everybody recites the fact that you
Speaker 4: can still recite it after all this time, and that
Speaker 4: movie came out How Long Go and looked like a
Speaker 4: damn teenage in that movie. Yeah, yeah, if I was,
Speaker 4: you know, it's funny and and just if I was
Speaker 4: able to do a movie right where it's a scene
Speaker 4: that's very impactful and and and it has a lot
Speaker 4: of meaning to it similar to that, it's it's a
Speaker 4: little different. But any given Sunday when al Pacino gave
Speaker 4: that speech the six inches remember that six inches speech? Yeah, man,
Speaker 4: if I you know what, matter of fact, that's my homework.
Speaker 4: That's my homework is that to watch that movie and
Speaker 4: see if I can recite it when we do the
Speaker 4: show Saturday.
Speaker 2: He uh.
Speaker 1: Actually he followed Mike Shanahan around for real. Yep, Patrino
Speaker 1: did Yep, to get rid of that practice.
Speaker 3: Came to meetings.
Speaker 1: You see how Mike conducted is stead up in front
Speaker 1: of the meeting, How you talked to us and things
Speaker 1: like that. Yep, Yeah, I like that.
Speaker 4: Hey, that's six inches speech. Hey, Joe, I used to
Speaker 4: play that sometime. You know, obviously before games to listen
Speaker 4: to music. Sometimes my obviously I was more blues classical
Speaker 4: type dude, you know, because I want my mind to
Speaker 4: be calm. Yeah, so I remember there was a few
Speaker 4: games I would listen to that sixth insan of speech.
Speaker 4: They just gets you hyped up, Joe, It gets you
Speaker 4: hyped up man already.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I just I just had that ability to
Speaker 1: call information. And it's a blessing and a curse. Sometimes
Speaker 1: you remember everything because you know, were you in a relationship,
Speaker 1: you remember everything else you can't remember that. You don't
Speaker 1: remember where you was, you don't remember what you did,
Speaker 1: who you were with.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah I said that.
Speaker 1: No, I mean you got that of the gun every day.
Speaker 4: Hey, that's not a good thing you having it. That's
Speaker 4: a gift and a curse. Now, the fact that you
Speaker 4: can recall everything, because especially when it when it comes
Speaker 4: to you know, having a partner and she know you know,
Speaker 4: and don't forget nothing, man, Yeah to gifting the curse.
Speaker 2: And now you're out here playing done Yeah yeah, yeah,
