00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 1: Now, coming up in twenty minutes, we'll talk with NBA

28
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 1: insider Mark Medina look back at what we saw the

29
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 1: first two nights of the draft, including I'm sure it'll

30
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,119
Speaker 1: be a conversation about Ace Bailey, the guy that doesn't

31
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,479
Speaker 1: want to play for anybody in the NBA, apparently except

32
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,199
Speaker 1: the Wizards.

33
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 3: That's his song.

34
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 5: They should have played that when he came on.

35
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: Now we talked about his story a little bit last night.

36
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:45,319
Speaker 2: Didn't work out for anybody.

37
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,639
Speaker 1: Didn't want to go to the seventy six ers, wanted

38
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 1: to potentially get to the Wizards, maybe one other team

39
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: tried to take his draft situation and push himself where

40
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: I want to control the team I go to, and

41
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 1: he wound up getting drafted by the Jazz, who he

42
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: said he had no idea the Jazz were gonna take him.

43
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 1: He doesn't know why, never talk to them anything else,

44
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 1: but the Jazz took him comfortable with everything they saw

45
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,919
Speaker 1: in him on tape and everything else that goes along

46
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: with it. Well, now today we get the story, according

47
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 1: to ESPN sources that leading up to the draft. Ace

48
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: Balley's reps informed a team drafting in the top five

49
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: they didn't want that team to select him, and they

50
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,799
Speaker 1: wouldn't he wouldn't report to the team if it did. Now,

51
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: without knowing, I assume it's the Sixers because he wouldn't

52
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 1: work out for the Sixers, and we know the Mavericks

53
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 1: are taking Cooper Flag, and we know that Dylan Harper's

54
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 1: going number two. So jem, I'm gonna think that's the

55
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 1: Sixers at number three. But I kind of narrows it

56
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 1: down a little bit there.

57
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm just crazy.

58
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 1: Look, you know it went this way last night, and

59
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 1: it was such a big start. I don't think people

60
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 1: understand what a big story this was. Because if he

61
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:55,639
Speaker 1: was able to get his destination, pick his destination where,

62
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 1: hey I will I don't care about going in the

63
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 1: top five, I get to Washington or wherever else I

64
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: want to get to. So many other players would try

65
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 1: to pull that power play too, and it would ruin

66
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: the draft, and in five years the draft would be

67
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:12,640
Speaker 1: something unrecognizable. The fact this story gets out tonight, Yeah

68
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 1: he didn't get to his preferred destination, and yeah, you

69
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: tell one team or whatever not to take you, that's

70
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 1: not gonna work.

71
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 2: I'll tell you right now.

72
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: To kids coming into the draft, right now, whatever advice

73
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: you want to get or you think you can do,

74
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 1: you think the cards you hold. Only very few players

75
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: could do that. Only Cooper Flag would be able to

76
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: pull the power play of don't draft me, I'm not

77
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 1: gonna go there. And if he told the Mavericks that,

78
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: not that he would, but if he told the Mavericks that,

79
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: the Mavericks would say, oh, all right, well, we don't

80
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 1: know what to do. If we trade the pick, or

81
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: we draft Cooper Flag and trade him to somebody else,

82
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 1: that's the guy that has the cachet. The average NBA

83
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 1: prospect doesn't have that. And it was a big deal

84
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: last night, and the fact that he didn't get to

85
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 1: his preferred team tell me this is going to be

86
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 1: a strategy. You're not going to see players duplicate because

87
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 1: they get it's scared. Now, boy, I don't know what's

88
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 1: going to I might really wind up on a team

89
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 1: I don't want to go to if I tell players,

90
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: if I tell teams I want to go there. So

91
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 1: it becomes now it went from something players could do

92
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 1: to now something they're going to be scared of.

93
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 2: And this story.

94
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 1: Today about hey, it gets out that he told a

95
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 1: team not to draft him and he still wound up

96
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 1: going to a team in the top five they didn't

97
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 1: know anything about. Tells me this strategy is not going

98
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 1: to fly in the NBA.

99
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, what's curious.

100
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 5: I mean, you've got the different ways of going about it.

101
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 5: The guys that get the advice that's bad and now

102
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,159
Speaker 5: they're in no man's land, like we talked about with

103
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 5: Lewis and some of these other two way players that

104
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,719
Speaker 5: are coming out with another year of eligibility and now

105
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 5: going man. I could have made money at school XYZ

106
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 5: if I'd stayed. We talk about guys at the back

107
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,160
Speaker 5: end of the draft saying hey, please don't draft me

108
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 5: because they may have their eye on a certain squad

109
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 5: that comes out. We've talked about Austin Reeves right a

110
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:58,159
Speaker 5: little bit about him and his future contracts, but let's

111
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 5: hit the rewind button with him couple of years ago

112
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 5: in that regard. And then you've got guys at the

113
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 5: top of the draft with trying to show a little

114
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 5: bit of clout, but it fails in that if a

115
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,839
Speaker 5: team sees you as an asset to what they're building

116
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 5: as a squad, or as an asset to Hey, you're

117
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:18,840
Speaker 5: really good, and even if you don't want to be here,

118
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 5: and we ultimately decide to part ways, we can go

119
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 5: and put you back into the marketplace. Get players, get

120
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 5: draft picks, get whatever compensation over and above what we

121
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 5: had to give out to draft you. So sure we're

122
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 5: still going to take you, and you can have a

123
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 5: hissy fit, You can cry to the media, you can

124
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,720
Speaker 5: leak whatever you want through your agencies, your business managers,

125
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 5: your family members.

126
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 4: It's all going to come out in the wash.

127
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 5: In this case, for Bailey, I gotta think once you

128
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 5: actually start talking to Dwayne Wade, who applauded the decision

129
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,279
Speaker 5: to draft him, he's one of the co owners, or

130
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 5: Danny Ainge, you know who's there, that you've got folks

131
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 5: with the acumen and with the know how to bring

132
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,039
Speaker 5: a guy in and say, all right, so here's the

133
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,040
Speaker 5: vision with you in it. Because at this point they

134
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 5: haven't pulled the trigger on all the other would be trades,

135
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 5: doesn't mean they won't still, but Kessler and others they've

136
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 5: rebuffed all offers, at least what's been leaked out there,

137
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 5: and you know, you decide how much is just noise

138
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 5: and stuff to print out for kindling as opposed to

139
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 5: something that's truly has legs. But at this point, he's

140
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 5: a guy that'll be a focal point. And I gotta

141
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 5: think once they show you the video, it's kind of

142
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 5: like when they were recruiting the guys in Blue Chips.

143
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 5: As soon as they start playing your name over the

144
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 5: speakers and showing you the the how they're going to

145
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 5: showcase you, and oh, by the way, in the fifth slot,

146
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 5: here's what your salary is, things get a little bit better.

147
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,600
Speaker 1: Yes, Jason Smith Mike Harmon live from the Fox Sports

148
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 1: Radio studio. So, yeah, so I think the NBA dodged

149
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 1: a bullet there with the Yace Bailey situation. Again, we'll

150
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 1: have more on this coming up in a few minutes

151
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: with Mark enjoy It.

152
00:06:58,720 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 2: Yeah.

153
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,719
Speaker 5: I mean, I like Chao situation, so I kind of wish,

154
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 5: you know, that it would have been more substantivet He

155
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 5: may not have wanted to go to utub, but there

156
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 5: he goes. I went saw the Book of Mormon a

157
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 5: couple of weeks ago. I mean, that's you know, he

163
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:29,440

164
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 1: which is happening in Venice, Italy. Right.

165
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 2: We talked to John Paul Morosi last hour and that

166
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:33,520

167
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 4: He didn't stay.

168
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 2: He was on vacation.

169
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,960

175
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,920

176
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 1: in Venice don't want them there because it's over tourism

177

179
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:03,040

180
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:07,120

00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:15,520

307
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:18,559

Speaker 6: in wedding crashers.

310
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,160

Speaker 6: It does make sense. I mean he was a chief

318
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 6: and he is a loser.

319
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:46,040

322
00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 1: to fly in first class on a private plane, you

323
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:00,000

Speaker 4: Keep my options the figure it out.

328

Speaker 7: You go, but you mentally make fun of everybody there

330
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 7: and write everything down and then like do a tell

331
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,880
Speaker 7: all on your way back about how lame it was there.

332
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 2: You go and you write a book. I allo patent pending,

333
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:25,840

368
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:10,880
Speaker 1: Longtime NBA insider follow on Twitter at Mark g Underscore Medina.

369

Speaker 1: It is Mark Medina who's got his latest on sports

370
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: Keta about an NBA executive that told him Cooper Flag

371
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,679
Speaker 1: is easily going to be a multi time All NBA

372
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 1: guy and an All Star for multiple years. Mark Medina, Uh,

373
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,080
Speaker 1: what did you? When did James Dolan tell you this?

374
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 8: And I can't reveal sources, but when you were when

375
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,120
Speaker 8: you were sharing that quote, I was thinking, you know what,

376
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 8: I bet Jason is already imaginating trade machine scenarios for

377
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 8: Cooper Flag.

378
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 2: Well, of course, I mean, look, Nico Harrison traded Luca?

379
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:48,199
Speaker 2: Why not?

380
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:48,680
Speaker 8: Right?

381
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,399
Speaker 4: Could dare everybody got?

382
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 8: I thought you were already busy getting us hunted the Koompo?

383
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:56,200
Speaker 8: I mean, isn't that enough?

384
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:57,399
Speaker 2: Just what one in?

385
00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 1: One guy at a time, one guy at a time.

386
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 1: We got to get a coach for and then we'll

387
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:01,400
Speaker 1: get Joannis.

388
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,600
Speaker 8: Right, yeah, yeah, you do, We'll get a coach. How's

389
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 8: that search coming along? I mean they've finally gone away

390
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:09,439
Speaker 8: from reaching out to every coach that's still in the

391
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:13,399
Speaker 8: playoffs and now shifting toward every assistant coach on a

392
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:15,359
Speaker 8: playoff team. So maybe by the end of the summer

393
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:16,480
Speaker 8: they'll find their head coach.

394
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,919
Speaker 1: Well, Frostburg said he has Doc rivers phone number, and

395
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 1: against my wishes, he's going to reach out to Doc

396
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,360
Speaker 1: Rivers and see if Doc wants because I don't want

397
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: Doc anywhere near it. But if he brings Giannis, I

398
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:27,359
Speaker 1: might have to say that.

399
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 8: I was gonna, you know what, you sold the rewards

400
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:31,679
Speaker 8: right out of my mouth. I was gonna say, what

401
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 8: if it is a package deal that if you want

402
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 8: Gianness you got to bring Doc Rivers along? Is that

403
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 8: worth it?

404
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 1: I you know what I'd think about it.

405
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 2: I'd think about it, all right, you gotta be something

406
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 2: to think about it.

407
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 8: Hey, you'd get to a game that in all seriousness,

408
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,960
Speaker 8: the Knicks are still, you know, on going with this

409
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 8: coaching search. But the early rumblings is that even though

410
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 8: this won't be finalized probably until after free agency starts.

411
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,320
Speaker 8: Mike Brown seems to be in the running. That's the

412
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 8: that's them o that I'm I've ben't getting so far.

413
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 2: Oh so you think Mike Brown is the is the

414
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:07,879
Speaker 2: front runner right now? For that?

415
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,159
Speaker 8: He is the front runner. That's that's what I've learned,

416
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 8: you know, interviewed well. He has obviously the most head

417
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:17,639
Speaker 8: coaching experience. I think the other thing is that, you know,

418
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:20,880
Speaker 8: he's not that defensive guru watches on a film Tom

419
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 8: Thibodeau does that, and that then always suit what they wanted.

420
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:28,920
Speaker 8: He's you know, been more innovative with his offense. So yeah,

421
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 8: I think I think he'll wind up getting it, But

422
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 8: it's gonna take the Nick some time for them to

423
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:35,520
Speaker 8: fully realize that's their guy.

424
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 1: See and see, Mike, what did I say? I could

425
00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,120
Speaker 1: have saved the Nick so much? What did I say

426
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 1: the first night when they fired tips? Who was the

427
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 1: first guy? I said, Mike Brown?

428
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 5: Mike Brown, I had Taylor Browns And here we are,

429
00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:51,200
Speaker 5: all these weeks later now talking to anybody who will

430
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:51,960
Speaker 5: take a phone call.

431
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 2: I could have saved it.

432
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 1: I could have said, hey, James Dolan did send me

433
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,920
Speaker 1: fifty grand I'll tell you who to go higher, and

434
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 1: and it would have saved all the embarrass smint of

435
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 1: the people saying know all of this, I said, Mike,

436
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 1: that was the first name.

437
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:04,360
Speaker 2: I said.

438
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 1: Go get Mike Brown, coaching big situations, coach big players,

439
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 1: great defensive system, different from Tims. Yes, go get Mike Brown.

440
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 1: I could have saved that. I should be running the

441
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 1: Necks Mark, I should call Leon Rose. I should be

442
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 1: running the next But here's the.

443
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 8: Thing, I think with the Knicks dragging us out, it

444
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,399
Speaker 8: also saves them money because they already owe money to

445
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,159
Speaker 8: Tom Tibo, though they can wait a few more weeks

446
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,920
Speaker 8: before owing money to another head coach at the same time.

447
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:35,680
Speaker 5: All right, so dollars indeed way away from the Knicks.

448
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 1: Now, obviously, we're still talking about Cooper Flag going number

449
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,640
Speaker 1: one overall, and we talked about this last night.

450
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 2: I think he's so good.

451
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 1: I think in a couple of years, the conversation is

452
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 1: going to be is he or Wenby the best all

453
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,120
Speaker 1: around player in the game when it comes to scoring

454
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:52,639
Speaker 1: and and ball handling and dishing the ball defensively? Do

455
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 1: you see that kind of future for Cooper Flag.

456
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 8: In the NBA, Oh, without a doubt. I think when

457
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 8: you're looking at what's going to be the impact Number one,

458
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,399
Speaker 8: you mentioned about what that one executive told me. Multi

459
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:07,640
Speaker 8: year All NBA player, multi year All Star. But it's

460
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,160
Speaker 8: not just the accolades. It's how he's going to get

461
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 8: the Alcolate accolades. He doesn't have this defined skill set.

462
00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 8: I think Carmelo Anthony was saying, Oh, he doesn't have

463
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,280
Speaker 8: this go to move. You know what, I don't think

464
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:24,200
Speaker 8: that really matters because he checks every box, he defends

465
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:28,160
Speaker 8: multiple positions, he knows how to score, he's athletic as hell.

466
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 8: He has the highlight reels with those dunks. He's a

467
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 8: great passer, and he's very amenable toward roles. And so

468
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 8: I think the really cool thing for Cooper flag with

469
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,439
Speaker 8: Dallas is that you know, there's a reason why they

470
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 8: only had like just over one percent chance to get

471
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 8: the number one pick. They didn't have the worst record

472
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 8: in the NBA, they were a playoff team, they were

473
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 8: in the plan, and then obviously everything fell park Is

474
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 8: Kyrie Irving had a season ending injury a month before

475
00:21:55,720 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 8: the season ended, so he's jumping into it Andronment where

476
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:05,080
Speaker 8: he's not expected to carry the team single hatedly. But

477
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 8: at the same time, there are some questions next season,

478
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 8: when does Kyrie Irving come back from his acl how

479
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,360
Speaker 8: limited is he going to be with Anthony Davis. He's

480
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,879
Speaker 8: healthy now, but how long will that last. So with that,

481
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 8: he's going to have an opportunity as well as a

482
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 8: necessity to put on the number one, number two hat,

483
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,639
Speaker 8: but when they're back having to be number three. But

484
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 8: the key thing that his trainer, Matt McKenzie told me

485
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:32,399
Speaker 8: and stressed about Cooper Flag is he's very adaptable with

486
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 8: not just his skill set but his attitude. And so

487
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 8: I think with this it makes for a very perfect fit.

488
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,920
Speaker 8: And with Dallas, because of everything going on this last

489
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,840
Speaker 8: year with trading Luka Doncic, they can point to him

490
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 8: as their jail out a free card as well as

491
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,600
Speaker 8: tangibly make the case that he can be our base

492
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,399
Speaker 8: of the franchise moving forward. And you know what, he'll

493
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,360
Speaker 8: do that so well that seven years from now they're

494
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 8: not going to trade him because he is in good

495
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,360
Speaker 8: condition and so they're not going to worry about that.

496
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,679
Speaker 5: So Austin Reeves declined the four year, eighty nine million

497
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:15,240
Speaker 5: dollar contract extension looking for larger, greener pastures. Lakers could

498
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:18,120
Speaker 5: off from what two forty six a year from now,

499
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,640
Speaker 5: no chance in hell or the max and the rest

500
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,359
Speaker 5: of the market plays one eighty nine. Where's the difference

501
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 5: between that ninety seven million dollars for Austin Reeves in

502
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 5: the next year.

503
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 8: Yeah. I think that he's not going to go anywhere.

504
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 8: And even though technically he declined to, you know, have

505
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 8: the extension, I don't think that's all the sudden the

506
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:39,919
Speaker 8: signal that he wants to leave the Lakers. And I

507
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:43,359
Speaker 8: think in a weird way, that might actually depress the

508
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:47,119
Speaker 8: market because teams might think, Okay, well what am I

509
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:50,239
Speaker 8: investing in him for when he's going to, you know,

510
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,440
Speaker 8: be be a free agent next summer, right where his

511
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 8: number will be a lot higher. So I think it

512
00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 8: was a move that frankly benefited both sides. I think

513
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 8: the Lakers still gave that extension offer to Austin Reefs

514
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 8: just as a do good gesture and just you know,

515
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 8: so they're not sending any signals that they don't think

516
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 8: highly of him. But there is a gray area because

517
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 8: on one hand, Rob Polinka is talking about Austin Reeves

518
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:21,120
Speaker 8: in the same breath as Luka Doncic and Lebron James.

519
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,560
Speaker 8: As you know, this big three and this pillar that's

520
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 8: good to build a team around. But at the same time,

521
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,360
Speaker 8: it's not like Austin Reeves is untouchable. It's just that

522
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:35,959
Speaker 8: they're parameters. For trading Austin Reeves is it has to

523
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 8: be a move that significantly puts them over the top.

524
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:44,240
Speaker 8: It's not a trade rotation player for a trade rotation player,

525
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 8: kind of marginal move that they'll be willing to do.

526
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 8: So when you add all those things up, I don't

527
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 8: think he goes anywhere. And if the Lakers are going

528
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 8: to make moves to address their center spot, it's either

529
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 8: going to be through free agency or if it's through trade,

530
00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 8: it's going to be involving gave Vincent, Dorian Finnish Smith

531
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 8: and maybe really had Chamora.

532
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:05,479
Speaker 2: See I look at it this way.

533
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 1: I look at a little bit differently as that I

534
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,960
Speaker 1: think the late with the ownership change and things going on,

535
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:12,919
Speaker 1: they're going to take this season as it comes. Lebron

536
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 1: will opt in for fifty one million, and obviously yes

537
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 1: they did the nice thing with Austin Reeves, but at

538
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,200
Speaker 1: the end of the year, they're going to say, Okay,

539
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 1: we're fully building around Luca. Lebron will likely be gone

540
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,240
Speaker 1: and if Austin Reeves is looking for the Max.

541
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 2: Austin Reeves is a nice player.

542
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,120
Speaker 1: He's a good player, right, He's a good number three

543
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 1: guy on a team. Lakers aren't going to give him

544
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 1: five years two hundred and fifty million dollars Like, that's

545
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 1: not how so I don't know that this might not

546
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:38,680
Speaker 1: be the last year on the Lakers for both Lebron

547
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 1: and Austin Reeves before they say, Okay.

548
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 2: We're not going to give him that kind of money.

549
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 1: We need somebody else to be with Luca that we

550
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:46,320
Speaker 1: pay two hundred and fifty million dollars too, because so,

551
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:47,640
Speaker 1: by the way, we got to give Luke a lot

552
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:49,400
Speaker 1: of money. So I think this might be the last

553
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 1: year for both of them. It's like, Okay, we're going

554
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:52,960
Speaker 1: to make a last run with the team we've kind

555
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 1: of put together.

556
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 2: We're going to add a rim runner for Luca.

557
00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,640
Speaker 1: And then really next offseason we build for the next

558
00:25:58,640 --> 00:25:59,680
Speaker 1: generation of the Lakers.

559
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,919
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean what you said very well could happen.

560
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 8: I think the fascinating thing is there's also this scenario

561
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 8: that Lebron James he opts out of his player option

562
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,080
Speaker 8: and he decides to do the one plus one again,

563
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:15,119
Speaker 8: because I don't know if Lebron actually knows yet do

564
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 8: I want to retire. He's been hinting a lot that

565
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,200
Speaker 8: when he's going to return, he could play five seven years,

566
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:25,960
Speaker 8: he thinks. But his standard is all Star caliber level.

567
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,920
Speaker 8: And I think the complicated part is, even though he's

568
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,119
Speaker 8: not the same player as he was in his prime,

569
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 8: he's still all Star caliber. And so I think because

570
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:37,439
Speaker 8: of that, he's not going to be announcing this is

571
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,920
Speaker 8: the final season. As much as everyone including myself might

572
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,120
Speaker 8: think he likes that farewell tour, I think what's more

573
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 8: important for him is leaving that window open to potentially

574
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:51,520
Speaker 8: get another championship or two. And so with that, I

575
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:56,480
Speaker 8: don't think Lebron's last year is technically this season. It

576
00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 8: could be, but I.

577
00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 1: Don't think I think it's going to be another. I

578
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,479
Speaker 1: think he goes back to Cleveland after this. How how

579
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 1: else is he going to finish? Right, he goes back

580
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,480
Speaker 1: to Cleveland, they're winning championship, finally come back to the

581
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:10,119
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, he's no.

582
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,120
Speaker 2: I'd love for him to do that, but it's like, Okay,

583
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:13,720
Speaker 2: how else is he going to really end? He was?

584
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,960
Speaker 8: I don't think he's going back Cleveland, as enticing as

585
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 8: that is, with you know, the core that they have.

586
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:22,640
Speaker 8: I think he's he likes being in la he likes

587
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 8: to play with Bronny. I don't think Bronny is going anywhere,

588
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,119
Speaker 8: So we'll see. I mean, all these combinations, that's what

589
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 8: makes it intriguing, like everything could happen. That makes it

590
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 8: good for us because we have a lot to talk about.

591
00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 8: But this is what's challenging for the Lakers. There's all

592
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 8: these different odds that that's going to happen, and are

593
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 8: different scenarios that could happen. So they're trying to be

594
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:45,120
Speaker 8: flexible with everything. And at the same time, Lebron James

595
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,400
Speaker 8: is the same vein and there's gonna be a lot

596
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:50,159
Speaker 8: of changes with this new ownership with Mark Walter. But

597
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 8: one of the changes I don't think is going to

598
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 8: be affected is Lebron James's future. I think it's more

599
00:27:56,400 --> 00:28:00,400
Speaker 8: it's what the philosophy hasn't changes, for better for worse.

600
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,160
Speaker 8: The Lakers want a star player to retire with them,

601
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:05,640
Speaker 8: so they're going to leave it almost up to him

602
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,639
Speaker 8: to decide that there's a lot of moving parts. How

603
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 8: much they devote to their resources with support, staff, analytics,

604
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,960
Speaker 8: the front office, scouting, you know, how much they're willing

605
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:19,159
Speaker 8: to absorb luxury taxes with you know, paying role players

606
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 8: like Austin Reeves. I don't think lebron James's future necessarily

607
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,840
Speaker 8: is affected because Junior Bus and the Bus family sold

608
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 8: their majority shares to Mark Walter.

609
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 4: I like chaos theory, so that's what it's all about

610
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:32,440
Speaker 4: for past.

611
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:34,880
Speaker 1: So let's let's go back to the draft and then

612
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 1: Mark to finish this up. Did the NBA keep it

613
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 1: at two day event so they didn't have to admit

614
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 1: they only did the second day for Bronny James.

615
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 2: Your thoughts, you know what?

616
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 8: There could be some truth today. I think also it's

617
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 8: you know, dog days, a summer programming needs with the

618
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 8: cable networks. That's another thing. But I would argue this,

619
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 8: give me any baseball game regardless over the second night

620
00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,480
Speaker 8: of the NBA Draft. And I say that as someone

621
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 8: who the NBA covers it obviously for a living, and

622
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 8: I'm paying attention to everything, but from from a if

623
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:10,480
Speaker 8: I'm you know, an NBA fan, there's no reason to

624
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 8: watch this. It's just so prolonged. I get last year

625
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 8: for the very rare occurrence that there was some intrigue

626
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 8: of hate watch and some people fascinating with Brownie. But

627
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:26,000
Speaker 8: there's no compelling storylines with the second round of the

628
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 8: draft beyond front offices. So yeah, it should go back

629
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 8: to the way it was.

630
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 1: He's on X at Mark g Underscore, Medina. That's at

635
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 8: Appreciate you next week, you know, maybe finally the next

636
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,440
Speaker 8: time a head coach, we'll see maybe all Mike Brown,

637
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 8: Hey man.

638
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 2: Mike Brown, dude, I could have tell again the Nicks.

639
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 1: I could have saved the Nicks so much heartache, I

640
00:29:57,400 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 1: said Mike Brown from the beginning.

641
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 2: Oh boy, thank you very u much, sir. I appreciate it.

642
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:04,560
Speaker 8: I guess there at some point, all right.

643
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 1: Well the Lakers do, so maybe that's what I get

644
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:11,719
Speaker 1: from the Knicks. They all like Brown still the leader.

645
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 1: In the fact, I feel like, here's the thing, though,

646
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 1: I feel like if he really was the runaway guy,

647
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:18,479
Speaker 1: they would have hired him. By not right because they

648
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 1: talked to Brown, They talked to Jenkins, you know, they

649
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 1: they talked to Mike and Nor. They're gonna talk to

650
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,720
Speaker 1: Brego this weekend, Like, okay, is he if he? Once

651
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,320
Speaker 1: you find the guy, you say, okay, you're our guy.

652
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 1: Now I get maybe a lot of it as optics.

653
00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 1: The Knicks don't want to make it seem okay. We

654
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 1: we biff the first part of it by not by

655
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,320
Speaker 1: by asking for permission from teams who are never going

656
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:38,880
Speaker 1: to do it for us, So we want to make

657
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 1: sure we're doing it looks like we're doing our due diligence.

658
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 1: But if Mike Browns your guy, Mike Brown your guy,

659
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 1: it's all good.

660
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:44,800
Speaker 2: Yeah.

661
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 4: See, I still go back to I didn't think that

662
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:48,240
Speaker 4: was his clown. I mean it was.

663
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,960
Speaker 5: It was a nice fodder for us to kind of

664
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:55,280
Speaker 5: laugh at your Knicks. But by the serious side of it,

665
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 5: I was always of the big belief that go take

666
00:30:58,280 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 5: your shot.

667
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:00,200
Speaker 4: You don't know if you're gonna get a yes.

668
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 5: So I get it, you know, they when you're in

669
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 5: a teenager and you're thinking about the big dance. You

670
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:08,560
Speaker 5: don't know who's being asked and who hates. If someone

671
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 5: isn't coupled up, take your shot, might be surprised. Same

672
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 5: thing here. You might have a team that behind the

673
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,520
Speaker 5: scenes they don't really love their coach, and their coach

674
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 5: doesn't love them. They're they're at odds over what to

675
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 5: do with that second year temperamental point guard.

676
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 4: And you move on.

677
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,680
Speaker 5: So as of the seventeenth of this from DraftKings, you

678
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,520
Speaker 5: had Brown, then Jenkins, Johnny Bryant still in the mix,

679
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:33,720
Speaker 5: Michael Malone, Brego Budenholzer, Steve Nash, and Rick Brunson still

00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 1: Rick Brunton is still there just because he's still there.

Speaker 1: Gonna talk to him. No, we're not gonna, but I'm

00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 7: what I've been doing wrong.

700
00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:24,200

701
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 1: they first got their computers, Like in the late nineties,

702

757
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 1: it last night. I'm sure you heard about it all

758
00:35:53,200 --> 00:36:00,719

00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 1: you can imagine what it must have been like on

760
00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 1: Night two, where the tagline could be, Hey, tune in,

761
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 1: you never know what you're gonna hear.

762

766
00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:23,840
Speaker 2: as last night NBA Draft. H Are we sure the

767
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 2: two nights the NBA drafts still a good thing?

768
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:28,839
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a league that the night they

769
00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 1: should make its own standalone night in the the NBA

770
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:36,600
Speaker 1: Draft Lottery night, which should be its own thing, they

771
00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:39,120
Speaker 1: decide to jam that between two games.

772
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:40,239
Speaker 2: In the first round of the playoffs.

773
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:43,040
Speaker 1: No, no, but we'll give a whole separate night to

774
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 1: the second night of the draft. And and and it

775
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:50,160
Speaker 1: ran unopposed tonight with regular season Baseball regular season WNBA

776
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,319
Speaker 1: and wow, did you watch this.

777
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:54,279
Speaker 2: And go what the hell is this? Man?

778
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:56,879
Speaker 1: It was It's just like one step up from the

779
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 1: MLB Draft, which I don't even think is televised. I

780
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:01,759
Speaker 1: think it's guys in a room, like when you used

781
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:03,560
Speaker 1: to do a fantasy draft in the nineties.

782
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 2: We just suck around.

783
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:06,800
Speaker 1: And at the end you just told everybody, here's my

784
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:08,880
Speaker 1: let me say, you send me your roster so I

785
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 1: have it so I can put it in. Okay, great,

786
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:12,960
Speaker 1: I'll send you by roster Like that's really why are

787
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:15,360
Speaker 1: we really sure we need two nights of the NBA Draft?

788
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:18,480
Speaker 5: Well, you know, as we were talking about with Mark Madina,

789
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 5: is something we'd theorized earlier in the program.

790
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:26,600
Speaker 4: The idea that you do. I have a dearth of programming.

791
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:28,319
Speaker 5: And when it's all said and done, you want to

792
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:30,759
Speaker 5: advertise Day one, you gotta take a little bit of

793
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:34,280
Speaker 5: Day two. You got movies opening, plenty of them between

794
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:39,680
Speaker 5: f one, the movie Megan two point zero. Next week

795
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,640
Speaker 5: is Jurassic Park, and so many others that are coming out.

796
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:45,960
Speaker 5: You want your movies to be showcased dial up, but

797
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:50,680
Speaker 5: you gotta buy some Day two along the way, and otherwise,

798
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:52,600
Speaker 5: I mean, what else is on? Everything else is in

799
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:57,280
Speaker 5: reruns except Love Island. Maybe you're binge watching the Bear.

800
00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 5: But you have a bunch of opportunity for folks that

801
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:06,200
Speaker 5: are still curious coming off of the Okay, see win

802
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:09,040
Speaker 5: of you know, maybe where some of their college grades

803
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 5: went to put it in perspective, you had eight uh

804
00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 5: international players selected in round you only one back in

805
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 5: round one, and that was number twelve to the Bulls.

806
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 5: But today two way players, this is where you need

807
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,960
Speaker 5: more live coverage. Caleb Love goes to the Trail Blazers,

808
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:27,839
Speaker 5: and Ryan Nemhard you know that family that you love

809
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:31,240

810
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:33,680
Speaker 5: on a two way deal. So now we start seeing

811
00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:38,279
Speaker 5: the news bulletin of guys that we really know on

812
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,440
Speaker 5: the next level on our J Davis.

813
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:45,359
Speaker 1: As we do a pr flee, no one cares al Hey,

814
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,279
Speaker 1: no one can. If I'm a Gonzaga fan, I'm not

815
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 1: watching the draft to see where nempart ends up.

816
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:53,600
Speaker 5: You don't think so, No, that's your guy. You're not

817
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:55,800
Speaker 5: sitting in your sweaty jersey.

818
00:38:56,000 --> 00:39:03,839
Speaker 2: No you're not. None of that is enticing. I get it.

819
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:07,480
Speaker 1: Last year when Bronnie was the Okay Bronnie, you know,

820
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:09,719
Speaker 1: was a big story going into Rounte. We talked about

821
00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 1: Bronnie in the draft forever.

822
00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:11,640
Speaker 2: It was a deal.

823
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:13,759
Speaker 1: If you said, hey, we're gonna go back to the

824
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:15,800
Speaker 1: one night and go back to two nights when Bryce

825
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:17,960
Speaker 1: James comes in, because maybe Lebron's gonna want to play

826
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:18,279
Speaker 1: with him.

827
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:20,240
Speaker 2: Okay with that, I'm okay, But boy.

828
00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:22,279
Speaker 1: There's two nights that I mean, come on, you got

829
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,600
Speaker 1: enough time making it compelling with one night compared to two.

830
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:27,320
Speaker 2: Forget it. And you don't even know where.

831
00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:30,839
Speaker 1: Everybody is drafted because of the thirty picks of round two,

832
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,319
Speaker 1: twenty five of them were traded or were results of

833
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,320
Speaker 1: trades where people moved into.

834
00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 2: That spot to get them.

835
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:39,319
Speaker 1: There were only five picks where it was this team

836
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:40,720
Speaker 1: was in this spot and took this player.

837
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:41,920
Speaker 2: Like you can't even keep.

838
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 6: Track of it, Jason. Yeah, somebody floated a great idea

839
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,600
Speaker 6: hold the NBA Draft lottery thirty minutes before the first

840
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:49,440
Speaker 6: round of the draft.

841
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 4: See that's what That's what we were saying. Right, you're

842
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 4: on the clock, let's go.

843
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:55,399
Speaker 6: That would be kind of scramble time to go.

844
00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:58,279
Speaker 1: I guess we're taking Cooper flat Boy, and then a

845
00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:00,480
Speaker 1: Spanley would really be able to say where he wanted go, Yeah,

846
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:01,279
Speaker 1: you're number.

847
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:03,320
Speaker 2: One, let's go. Don't take me, man, don't where do

848
00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 2: you want to go? Watch it? You'll tay? Okay, great,

849
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:06,200
Speaker 2: you guys take a span Yeah.

850
00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 5: You don't even have enough time for that to be

851
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,600
Speaker 5: a chain called throughout the gms of the league from insiders.

852
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:13,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, it would just be like on social media, it

853
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,960
Speaker 1: would be agent for Ace Bailey, the following teams, Please

854
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:21,360
Speaker 1: do not take my client seventy six years Comma Philadelphia, Jazz,

855
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:23,680
Speaker 1: Comma Utah like that would that's the only way to

856
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:24,319
Speaker 1: get it out there.

857
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 5: But the draft lottery has its own night is one idea.

858
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 5: The other is to go in front of a microphone

859
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:33,239
Speaker 5: and go, yeah, we all got you for that one

860
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:34,560
Speaker 5: year with Brownnie James.

861
00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:38,399
Speaker 1: I mean, look, I get that putting the draft out there,

862
00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:41,560
Speaker 1: it's on TV, people get to see, okay, But at

863
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:43,000
Speaker 1: some point you have to say, all right, is that

864
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 1: a good optic for the league that you're showing something

865
00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:48,240
Speaker 1: that that they're not ready for, that doesn't show growth

866
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 1: or show something that puts the league in a real

867
00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 1: positive light like. I think the NBA you gotta understand that, Okay,

868
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:55,719
Speaker 1: you can't keep putting something out that they're just going

869
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 1: to be kind of a kind of a punchline for

870
00:40:57,719 --> 00:40:58,200
Speaker 1: the league.

871
00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:00,440
Speaker 5: Well, the comedy writers would just say, you just had

872
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:06,040
