That sounds about right, 30 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 2: and McElroy and Scheffler am I wrong. Yeah, it's a 31 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 2: pretty good encapsulation. Okay, that's kind of what it is. 32 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, you Schoffley, I don't know where my trophies are, 33 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 1: my gold met none of it. 34 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 2: I don't know where it is. 35 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 1: Rory McElroy clears, but it's hard to be motivated to 36 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 1: get ready coming out. 37 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 2: And you had. 38 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: Scotti Scheffler say, yeah, I play golf, but you know, yeah, 39 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: I don't know why I do sometimes. You know, yeah, 40 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 1: winning is great, but the feeling leaves you after like 41 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:57,919 Speaker 1: two minutes. 42 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 2: It was like an old sixty minutes bit. 43 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 3: You know, they do the profiles of athletes or so, 44 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 3: you know, celebrities, political figures, whatever, and one week they 45 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 3: had Bruce Springsteen and this is long ago. He's going, well, 46 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 3: you know I could I could rock out to eighty 47 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 3: thousand people but on Sunday morning, I'm still the guy 48 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 3: that's got to make the pancakes. Oh yeah, yeah, I 49 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,519 Speaker 3: mean that's what Scheffler's saying, Like I can go win 50 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,399 Speaker 3: a giant, novelty sized check. 51 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:23,679 Speaker 2: I don't know that that's what he's saying. 52 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: I think he's more saying, yeah, I play because I 53 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 1: love it, but I don't know why I play sometimes 54 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 1: and winning's not that big a deal like that. He 55 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,519 Speaker 1: sounds like a guy that's like, dude, you something like 56 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: you might need to stop playing. 57 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 3: Well. 58 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 2: I mean he could go Nicola Jokich kind of thing. 59 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 3: Go find himself his sulky and horses to ride around 60 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 3: to where we wonder if he just walks away at 61 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 3: some point, just lays his club down after winning another 62 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 3: major and just goes that's it, like done. 63 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 1: I mean, like he talks about how much he loves 64 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 1: the like in his big press conference, he guy made 65 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 1: a lot of news. Yes, but unfortunately we had the 66 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 1: MLB All Star Game. He's said, you know, base I 67 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: love the game. I prepped out it, I love to play. 68 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 1: I love to all this, and then went out of 69 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: his way to say how much there's so many things 70 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: about it. 71 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:03,359 Speaker 2: I don't love. 72 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:07,079 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, you know winning's not the winning, but everybody's 73 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 1: got that with every job. Though, I know that I'm 74 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 1: gonna show up every day and likely I'm not going 75 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: to win. You know, I got to understand that. And yeah, 76 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: I get when your sport is is is based on failing, 77 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 1: because you know there's you know, there's one winner forty 78 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 1: two losers, right like in Nascar, though, you know, a 79 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: great year, Look, a great year. For the longest time 80 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: in golf was if you want two events, not two majors. 81 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: Two events. Now we've we've ratchedt up where hey, you 82 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: have a great year. If you win two majors, You're like, 83 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: that's a great, great year. So I understand that, you know, 84 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: all right, the the the how we judge successes has changed. 85 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: But hearing him talk, I just feel like, dude, okay, 86 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: you need you need some time away. You need to 87 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: see if you still want to be a professional golfer. 88 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: Like nobody, you never hear anybody say stuff like that. Look, 89 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: Rory McElroy the last few weeks saying hey, it's been 90 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: difficult for me after winning the career Grand Slam to 91 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: get back up and play right. I completely understand that, 92 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: and what Maury McElroy needed was disappear. The guy needs that, 93 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: you know what, you need some time off, right, you 94 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: need some time off, some time away to recharge. And 95 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: because I firmly believe that that that's something that when 96 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: when you are when you are in pursuit of goals 97 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 1: and you are training and you are grinding and you 98 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: get to the top of the mountain, because clearly that's 99 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 1: a big top of the mountain type thing for you, 100 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: it's hard to come right back and play. So yeah, 101 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: that's where if I'm McIlroy out, you know, I need 102 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: some time off. Maybe I'll see it for the majors 103 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: later on this year, maybe not, but I need some 104 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: time away. I got to recharge. I'm excited to get 105 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: back at it whenever I want to get back at it. 106 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 1: But he needed some time off. 107 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 2: It's the hard part, right, Cheffle. 108 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: I feel like it's like like like he's like, yeah, 109 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: I could play or not play. Like if you could 110 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 1: play or not play, you got to think is this 111 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 1: you really still like doing this? 112 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 2: Man? 113 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,919 Speaker 1: Well, but you may like it well enough, but you 114 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: don't think about it when you're done, right, Yeah, you're 115 00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:00,160 Speaker 1: rolling through your practices and you're doing all your your 116 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: background work on the courses and knowledge of how things 117 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 1: are getting changed or whatever else, weather patterns, wind patterns, 118 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: all of those things that you would bring in on 119 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: your Doppler radar that you've purchased for yourself after all 120 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 1: your wins. 121 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 2: Whatever the case is, that. 122 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 3: You might need that space, right, Sometimes it's easy to 123 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 3: just decompartmentalize and it's like, you know what, I got 124 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:25,280 Speaker 3: to go and I've got chores to do, I've got 125 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 3: kids to run around whatever, and you can do that 126 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 3: and we. 127 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 2: Do that and everybody out there listening. 128 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 3: Whatever your job is, right, you try to have that 129 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 3: work life balance that everybody always talks about to where 130 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 3: you pause and you recognize that's my job and I 131 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 3: have to leave it. 132 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 1: I get it. But when he says stuff like what's 133 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: the point to winning? Why do I want to win 134 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: this tournament so bad? Like, okay, you're competing, like you're 135 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 1: out there like this is when everything else goes away 136 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 1: and you're doing something you love. Well, I think he 137 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 1: was trying to have that big existential moment for everybody. 138 00:05:58,160 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 2: It's like, what does this all really? 139 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: Who am I really? What am I all about a 140 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 1: guy behind him with a sitar. He's a meadle. Are 141 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: you all in the matrix? 142 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 2: Were not here? Is this not happen? 143 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 3: I mean he might be having a little bit of 144 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 3: that kind of thing there, you know, as you go. 145 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 3: But we've talked to plenty of athletes through our years 146 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 3: in this business of I was good at it. 147 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:17,280 Speaker 2: Did I love it? No? 148 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,039 Speaker 1: Winning is not a fulfilling life. I'm like, winning should 149 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: make you happy and should make you want to strive 150 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: towards doing it more. Yeah, you know you're not gonna 151 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: win every week, but that should be some Hey, this 152 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 1: is why it's great to say I'm the best in 153 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: the world of something. But that's also the best. 154 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 3: For him to be able to say, Yeah, I just 155 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 3: go out there and play. Sometimes it comes together, sometimes 156 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 3: it doesn't. Meanwhile, you know what's going on in his 157 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 3: head or on his left and right shoulder. You got 158 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 3: the angel and devil. They're fighting every stroke. I don't 159 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 3: know if there's many angel left on it.

Okay, correct, Now he's motivated a gay Yeah, 245 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 1: he's MOBUS seven hundred. Yeah, Scheffler plus six hundred. He 246 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,840 Speaker 1: is minus one seventy to make the top ten. Rory 247 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: just minus one oh five. 248 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,199 Speaker 3: John Rahm is the third favorite, followed by de Chambeau, 249 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 3: Fleetwood and Shuffley. 250 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:31,199 Speaker 2: The aforementioned. 251 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: He is twenty five to one tied with Oberhattan Hoveland. 252 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 2: So there you go. 253 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, look, Scheffler seems likely. You know, if 254 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: if you're having this kind of question about your life, 255 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:45,680 Speaker 1: now I look at I'm glad he talked about it. 256 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 2: Maybe it helped him talk about it. 257 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 3: As we talked about mental health with a lot of 258 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 3: this right and trying to find your space. 259 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,680 Speaker 1: I can't see the guy having a long career because 260 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 1: he goes into detail about what it is getting motivated 261 00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,839 Speaker 1: where this is. I think golf is going to be 262 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: something he does for a short amount of time, is 263 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 1: extremely successful at it. He's not gonna try to chase 264 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 1: Jack Nicholas's record, not gonna chase Tiger Woods. 265 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 2: Look in golf, guys play forever because you can't. 266 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 1: You your prime can be from when you're twenty four 267 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 1: till you're forty five, right, Like you could do that. 268 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 1: You can still win majors up to me your earlier example. 269 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 2: This is where Duranti should be. Kad. 270 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 1: If you were playing golf, I'd say you can maybe 271 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 1: it a title, But dude, thirty five, come on, now, 272 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 1: it's done. But but he's a he's a guy that 273 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 1: you know, how is he really gonna play more than 274 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: five more years? Like if he get if he gets 275 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: to a point where he stops winning majors for a 276 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: couple of years, he gonna say that's it. Like if 277 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 1: he's still playing if you're singing like this at twenty nine, 278 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 1: obviously you have peak earning potential. You want to keep going. 279 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: You don't want to turn away that money because you 280 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 1: never know. But yeah, your kids are younger. You want 281 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 1: to find a balance. But like, if he's still playing 282 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 1: after thirty five, like I'd be surprised, Like his reign 283 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 1: is number one, it's gonna be It's gonna be a 284 00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 1: while because no one clearly is is at his level, 285 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 1: like you thought, like the whole you know, you know, 286 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: the whole Brooks Koepka, that generation is gonna come up 287 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:07,839 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Scotty Scheffer comes out like the dude, 288 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: dude's the best golfer in the world. But is his 289 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: reign going to be that long? Like I mean, if 290 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 1: he's still playing and maybe younger than that, maybe at 291 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: thirty two thirty three, he decides I'm done, I'm walking away. 292 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 1: I'm not going to be that guy trying to stick 293 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 1: it out for ten majors or twelve majors or or 294 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: I'm looking at Jack like he's not Tiger Woods.

It is a stressed 452 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 1: situation for the Lakers. Why is it stressed because in 453 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 1: about to what's today, the sixteenth, in two and a 454 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 1: half weeks, the second, the second, I think the third, 455 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 1: second or the third, Luca not such a eligible to 456 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 1: sign a long term contract extension with the Lakers. If 457 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,359 Speaker 1: he signs this, it won't be what he would have 458 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:10,640 Speaker 1: gotten had he signed long term with the Mavericks. But okay, 459 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 1: that's never happening. So, okay, I get it, but the 460 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 1: trade happened and he's a Laker now. The stress level 461 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 1: for the Lakers is if Luka Doncich says no, and 462 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 1: clearly the chances are good that he might because next 463 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: year he can sign. 464 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,879 Speaker 2: A bigger, more lucrative deal and make more money. 465 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: This is the whole thing with Nikola Jokic, who is 466 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:36,400 Speaker 1: not signing the long term contract extension with the Nuggets 467 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: now because he can sign a much richer one next 468 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,440 Speaker 1: off season. Okay, I get it, I understand, but the 469 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:45,400 Speaker 1: Lakers are stressed out, and rightfully so, because you don't 470 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:47,880 Speaker 1: know if Luca wants to stay long term. 471 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:49,359 Speaker 2: If he says no, this is not we have our 472 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 2: long term star.

You could 487 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 1: lose Luka donsis right that that's gonna be the Lakers' 488 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: biggest thing, and that's why they're stressed, right, pimples on 489 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 1: the face.

Yeah, 494 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: because he got traded by his original team. That's how 495 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 1: acid I'm The rules of engagement are in this sport. 496 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,199 Speaker 1: But that's look, but that's not but again, that's not 497 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 1: coming back right, No, and here I could solve that, 498 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: but that's too much energy because it's the summer. And Okay, no, 499 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 1: I keep trying to give you all the business this stuff, 500 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 1: and I'm clearly vexing you. 501 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:03,479 Speaker 2: I don't want to solve the Apron. 502 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 1: I don't want that's just it's too too much hard work, 503 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 1: especially since I can just solve this for Luca and 504 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 1: the Lakers right now. I guess saw this for the Lakers. Okay, 505 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 1: the Lakers, Okay, yeah, you can solve this with you 506 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:13,919 Speaker 1: one hundred percent. I can solve this for you. Uh 507 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 1: here's my advice. What what do you do? 508 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 2: Lakers? 509 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: Suck it up and kiss his ass for the next 510 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: year and woo him for the next ten months. 511 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 2: That's how you do. 512 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 1: It, because that's the price you pay for the way 513 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: you ran your team over the course of the past 514 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: twenty years. 515 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:32,360 Speaker 2: To show your price, you. 516 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 3: Pay, so you have to hire Michael Finley and he's 517 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:36,200 Speaker 3: the guy that has to get miss post game beer, 518 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 3: get guys who take the. 519 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 2: Beer out of his hands. This is this is. 520 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 1: The price you pay for running the Lakers like a 521 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 1: mom and pop operation, which again, I you know, it's 522 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 1: a shame that ever ends. But what did we say 523 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,120 Speaker 1: when the Lakers got sold to Mark Walter? Maybe now 524 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: things can be better and they can be run like 525 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 1: a more modern day NBA franchise, because they weren't. They've 526 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 1: been run under the the the guideeship of Hey, if 527 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 1: this is too much money, we got to figure something 528 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,919 Speaker 1: else out with allowing Clutch Sports to come in and 529 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: help run them alongside before they decided, okay, we're moving 530 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:10,880 Speaker 1: away from Lebron era. 531 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 2: Now. 532 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 1: The Lakers have been run horribly, So this is the 533 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: price you pay when you're not run well. The Lakers 534 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 1: want to be able to let the team sell itself 535 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 1: and yeah, I used to be able to do that, 536 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,639 Speaker 1: not anymore. Can't do that anymore. And that's why the 537 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 1: sale of the team was a good thing. But there's 538 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 1: a lot of unknowns going on. Am I gonna opt in? 539 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 1: Am I gonna sign with this team long term? Do 540 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 1: I know that Mark Walter is gonna spend in theory? 541 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 1: I think he's going to because this is a guy 542 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 1: who's worth way more money than the Bus family. And 543 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 1: these are the owners that buy teams now. They buy 544 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 1: teams because they just want to. They're not their number 545 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 1: one source of income, so they don't have to treat 546 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 1: it as such because they're so incredibly wealthy. These are 547 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: the guys buying teams. These are guys that should be 548 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,440 Speaker 1: owning teams because teams shouldn't. 549 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:54,400 Speaker 2: Be operating under the guys as well. 550 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,919 Speaker 1: Hey, we really have to fiscally be beholden to this 551 00:23:57,920 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: because teams are never gonna win if that's the case. 552 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:01,359 Speaker 1: So I want to think it's going to change for 553 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 1: the Lakers, but you need to show that. So, yeah, 554 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 1: suck it up and woo Luca and kiss his ass 555 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 1: and show them that we're the right place for you, 556 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 1: and spend doing that over the next ten months and 557 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 1: then he'll be comfortable signing next year when you have 558 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,400 Speaker 1: money to spend and figuring things out as far as 559 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 1: moving on from Lebron, maybe you do, maybe the trade 560 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 1: actually happens, or maybe they buy them out and they 561 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,239 Speaker 1: figure out something else. But this is what you have 562 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,640 Speaker 1: to do because of how the team has been run 563 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: for the past few the past basically fifteen years. It sucks, 564 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 1: but you know what, suck it up because you gotta 565 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:35,479 Speaker 1: get You gotta roll your sleeves up and get your 566 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 1: hands dirty a little bit and make sure that Luca 567 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: knows this is the place for you to stay. Yeah, 568 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,160 Speaker 1: I'm sorry the Lakers are stressed out. Run your team 569 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:44,880 Speaker 1: better and you wouldn't be stressed out at this Yeah, 570 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: this is where. 571 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 3: You need to figure out everything that goes on behind 572 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 3: the scenes, right, because that's the Walter influence, working with 573 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:55,239 Speaker 3: the second apron. That has a lot of restrictions if 574 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 3: if you're there in terms of how you can reconstruct 575 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 3: and make changes to your roster, what it does to 576 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 3: your draft selection, Like, there's a lot of different parts 577 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 3: to it that make it truly a pain in the 578 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 3: ass for teams as they move forward here. So you're 579 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 3: gonna have to from the on court spending. Yeah, there's 580 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,639 Speaker 3: a bit of strategy and nuance that goes to it. 581 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 3: Where Walter and the Gougenheim money and all of this 582 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,879 Speaker 3: comes into play. Is all the infrastructure, everything that's around it. 583 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 3: So yes, how many you have to have a team 584 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 3: of therapists around twenty four to seven to make sure 585 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 3: physically he's got everything he wants. You want to change 586 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 3: out the meal process, you want to change out how 587 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 3: he gets to and from the practice facilities. Whatever it is, 588 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:44,639 Speaker 3: whatever is going to make him happy and want to 589 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 3: stick around, You're going to have to do it right. Obviously, 590 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:48,919 Speaker 3: the team, there's only so much you can do. You 591 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 3: don't have a lot of options here. You're at the 592 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:55,439 Speaker 3: point where you really can't even be in the market 593 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 3: against the Clippers for guys like Brook Lopez and the 594 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 3: Bradley Beal eye out that we talked about to like, 595 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:02,919 Speaker 3: you're not even in that space. 596 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:04,640 Speaker 2: You don't have a Brook Lopez. 597 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 1: He was like, ah, yeah. 598 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you don't have a lot of discernible assets 599 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,399 Speaker 3: that would be you know, wanted in a trade. All right, 600 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 3: don't connect any value he had going back to that 601 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 3: trade that failed summer league did not help any of that. 602 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,120 Speaker 2: It has not helped in terms. 603 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 1: Of his play JJ Clearly the Lakers would try love 604 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:29,360 Speaker 1: to try to trade Connect for anything. 605 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 3: At this point, I'd done there. You go at a back, back, 606 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 3: back and you've got goal. 607 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 2: Doesn't matter if you play red or yellow. Connect for 608 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 2: someone might work. 609 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:46,879 Speaker 3: But yes, it is now the all out assault on 610 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 3: the sensibilities of Luka Danchetz and his family, his dad, 611 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 3: all these folks that you gotta make sure they're happy. 612 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 2: Here's a Luca Pillow theme night. 613 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 1: Look, here's a Luca twel Here's an extra bottle head, 614 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:04,920 Speaker 1: I mean, Lucah hooka Knight.

Hey, if 618 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: I'm going to commit to this team. Yeah, clearly being 619 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 1: a Laker is awesome. It looks like he wants to 620 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 1: be a Laker. But you're not thirty one, thirty two. 621 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:22,640 Speaker 1: This is the best off from And again you're twenty five, 622 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 1: twenty six years old, and you know in a year, 623 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 1: I can get more money. I can get more money 624 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:30,360 Speaker 1: from someplace else. I have no problem playing the year 625 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 1: the way this is and seeing if it's where I 626 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:35,239 Speaker 1: want to go. He has gone from. He had all 627 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,919 Speaker 1: the power in Dallas, and then the Lakers had all 628 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 1: the power when they traded for him, because it was 629 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: a hey, Luca, guess what you can't You have to 630 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,440 Speaker 1: start getting yourself into shape. You have to start doing 631 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,719 Speaker 1: things differently. You just got yourself traded out of Dallas 632 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 1: because they were sick of whatever you put forth every day, 633 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 1: whether it was your effort, whether it was your lack 634 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 1: of desire to stay in shape, whatever it was, you 635 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 1: lost that. Now Okay, I got I gotta do this, 636 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 1: and now the power is shifted. With the Lakers going 637 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 1: out in the first round, Lebron opting in, not making 638 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 1: any moves to bring anybody else in. It's gonna be 639 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: the same team as it was last year unless something 640 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:12,120 Speaker 1: happens with Lebron and there's a big trade. So now 641 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 1: Lucas saying okay, and Will Wilso had to change an ownership. Yeah, 642 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,160 Speaker 1: maybe maybe the smart thing is to sit back and say, yeah, 643 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,439 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I'm not gonna sign this extension. I'm 644 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 1: gonna wait because I will either get it more money 645 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,560 Speaker 1: from here next year or a different destination where I'll 646 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: be happier. Well, you're trying to figure out what the 647 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,880 Speaker 1: connect for board looks like as you move forward, Right, 648 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: Lebron opting in, that's fine, it's his final year, right, 649 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,719 Speaker 1: there was no Hey, let's massage the money for twenty 650 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 1: five twenty six and make it a two year deal, 651 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 1: you know, the one and the bonus. 652 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 2: No, he's playing on the this year. 653 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 1: So even if he wanted to come back to the 654 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 1: Lakers and they decided to remarry after the season, guess what, 655 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 1: he ain't coming back at fifty three million dollars. So 656 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 1: there will be some money to be able to be 657 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: spent to augment your roster, and you can try to 658 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 1: read the tea leaves there after.
