This is why you got schefter. What 37 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 2: schefter gonna tell me? This is not true? Schefter? Oh 38 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,399 Speaker 2: the Dolphins or the Jets are involved. Okay, well that's 39 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,239 Speaker 2: the first piece of good news. Jets and Dolphins series 40 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,919 Speaker 2: talks trade for Chiefs watchers to Tyre Kill. Chiefs are 41 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,639 Speaker 2: mulling what to do, but Hills time and Casey looks 42 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:35,639 Speaker 2: like it's coming to an end. Jets and Dolphins is 43 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 2: two teams now buying for Tyreek Hill expects to a 44 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 2: massive contract extensions. Chiefs are gonna give a massive contract decision. Okay, 45 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:47,639 Speaker 2: all right, got your verification. I got my verification. Okay. 46 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 2: So I'm not gonna sit here and pretend this is good. 47 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 2: This obviously he's not good. However, I this is me 48 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 2: my version of tweeting through it. Listen, Tyreek is one 49 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 2: of the most unique, special, and talented receivers ever. He's 50 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 2: on a Hall of Fame trajectory. I'm not gonna deny that. 51 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,399 Speaker 2: What I am gonna say is this. You know what 52 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,359 Speaker 2: positive spin on this threefold First one is if you 53 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,239 Speaker 2: trade with the Jets, you're getting a top five pick 54 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 2: back the Dolphins. I'd be a little less excited, but 55 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 2: still we could deal trade with the Jets. You get 56 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 2: top five pick. That would be a positive thing. And 57 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 2: maybe multiple maybe the Jets give out multiple picks. Who knows. 58 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 2: Let's see what this trade possibly could be. If there's 59 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 2: any breaking news, again tell me. And by the way, 60 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 2: by the time people hear this, the trade might already 61 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 2: have happened. But I'm dealing with this in real time. 62 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 2: Here's another positive. I'm looking around the rest of the 63 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 2: AFC West. Those teams are minus picks. The Broncos they 64 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 2: don't have picks forever. Traded for mister limited Russell Wilson. 65 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 2: That's true. Oh yeah, you're laughing at me. The Raiders, 66 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 2: they're out of picks. They traded for Devonte Adams. So 67 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 2: while all those teams are focused in the here and now, 68 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 2: Chiefs have a long you know, one hundred yard of 69 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 2: view in this thing setting up a dynastic run. Now, 70 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 2: it's gonna be harder without Tyreek Hill. I understand that. 71 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 2: But one other positive, you know what, two more positives. 72 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 2: One is, you don't want to We've probably gotten the 73 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 2: best out of Tyreek Hill. Gonna need the new receiver 74 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 2: market things. DeVonta Adams twenty eight million a year. I'm 75 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 2: not thrilled about the idea of paying tyreek Hill twenty 76 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 2: eight million a year. So there's a nother positive. And lastly, 77 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 2: is this the only arrow people could throw at my guy? 78 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 2: Mahomes was, well, see him do it without tyreek Hill. Okay, well, 79 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 2: now we're gonna see him do it without tyreek Hill. 80 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 2: Mark was wuldas scantling. Let me see what his numbers 81 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 2: were real quick. God, this is the worst of Ma's eight. 82 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 2: All right, welcome in. It is the What's Right with 83 00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:00,479 Speaker 2: Nick Right podcast and video show like rate subscribe, do 84 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 2: all those things. I was ready to give you a 85 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 2: full plea for those things. But here's the deal. We 86 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,840 Speaker 2: had a whole show planned and then the tyreek Kill 87 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 2: news broke. We're gonna talk about it throughout the show. 88 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 2: You've already gotten my live kind of candid camera thoughts 89 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 2: on that, but that is not what we plan to 90 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 2: discuss today. Before demands joins us to talk about what 91 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 2: we will be discussing today in addition to the Tyreek 92 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 2: Kill news. As we start every show, we tell you 93 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 2: what we won't be discussing. So here's what's not on 94 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 2: the show today. What's not on the show today is 95 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 2: use of Nurkic tossing a fan's phone, which, by the way, 96 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 2: forty thousand well spent, Mike Tyson fighting Jake Paul for 97 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,279 Speaker 2: reportedly one billion dollars that didn't make the show, and 98 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 2: Jamal Crawford three times six Man of the Year. I 99 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 2: once tweeted that Jamal Crawford was my son, who you're 100 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 2: going to see in just a moment his favorite player. 101 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 2: Jamal dm me and said, oh my gosh, that's so awesome. 102 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,039 Speaker 2: I'll send him some gear. I then told Jamal my 103 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 2: son was at the time twenty two years old. He 104 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,279 Speaker 2: no longer sent the gear. I think he thought you 105 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,280 Speaker 2: were a little kid, which is why you never got it. 106 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 2: Demon say that you didn't even know about that. Yeah, same, 107 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 2: you didn't know. That's a true story. Yeah, Jamal Crawford, 108 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,479 Speaker 2: Seattle legend. All right, what are we starting with today? 109 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 3: Okay, well, let's talk about the best team in basketball? Okay, 110 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 3: the Phoenix Suns. I mean they have by far the 111 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 3: best record in the NBA right now, yep. 112 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 2: And by the time people see this last year this 113 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 2: who might be back, Chris Paul might be back? 114 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 3: Yes, I mean, do you think there's a chance that 115 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 3: they won the title this year? 116 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 2: So? I think there's certainly a chance. But they are 117 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 2: absolutely not my pick. They are right, I understand the 118 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 2: record says I need to respect him. Devin Booker's out 119 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 2: here saying, hey, you know, if we were fair about MVPs, 120 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,160 Speaker 2: I you know, I'm the leading scorer. I argue to 121 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 2: be the best player on the team with the best 122 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 2: record by far. Isn't that usually enough to win MVP? 123 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 2: And the answer Devin Booker quickly is yes, it usually 124 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 2: is enough to win MVP. However, the problem there is 125 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 2: it's kind of a Steph kd issue. Not that Chris 126 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 2: Paul and Devin Booker are equivalent to Stephen cad but 127 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 2: there's a real question about who is the best player 128 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 2: on that team. Now, they have been great since Chris 129 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 2: Paul was hurt, but they are obviously great with Chris Paul. 130 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 2: I would argue Chris Paul is the most important guy. 131 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 2: But so one would say, okay, so they have two 132 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 2: legit MVP at least fringe MVP candidates, they have an 133 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 2: excellent coach, they have a deep roster. Why are you 134 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 2: not picking them to win a weekend Western Conference? Well, 135 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 2: the real reason is I don't know that I trust 136 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 2: Chris Paul to make it through four rounds or three rounds. 137 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 2: Let's get to the finals healthy again. Now he did 138 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 2: last year barely, Remember he almost got hurt in round one. 139 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 2: And I think the back to back ninety plus game 140 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 2: one hundred game seasons can wear on any team, particularly 141 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 2: a team that doesn't have a ton of experience like 142 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 2: Phoenix and the one guy with a lot of experiences 143 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 2: and injury risk. Right my preseason pick to win the 144 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 2: West and to get out of the to get to 145 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 2: the finals was the Lakers. That clearly is dead right now, 146 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 2: I'm telling you I don't think Phoenix makes out of 147 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 2: Round two because I think the team they play in 148 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 2: round two is the team that's going to go to 149 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 2: the finals. I think this is the Dallas Mavericks year, 150 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 2: not to win the title, but to get to the finals. 151 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 2: I think Luca, who is the closest we have seen 152 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 2: to Lebron in NBA history, or at least since Lebron, 153 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 2: Luca is going to have his version of twenty two 154 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 2: year old Lebron seven carrying a very weak Cavs team 155 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,559 Speaker 2: all the way to the NBA Finals, where they then 156 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 2: got washed by the Spurs. I think Luca can carry 157 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 2: the MAVs to the NBA Finals, where they then will 158 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 2: get washed by the Bucks. So no disrespect to Phoenix, 159 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 2: but I do not think they are winning the title 160 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 2: this year. I just kind of alluded to Lebron there. 161 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 2: It looks like we are talking about Lebron here. What 162 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 2: are we discussing here, Demansey. 163 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 3: The Lakers and Nets are both headed to the play in. 164 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 2: It's unbelievable that they're both headed to the play in too, Yeah, 165 00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 2: it is. It's a crazy time. 166 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 3: But despite Katie and Lebron both having great seasons, yep, 167 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 3: do you think player empowerment is backfiring if the greatest 168 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 3: guys stuck on really bad teams. 169 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:13,319 Speaker 2: So that's interesting because so I thought about this when 170 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 2: I was watching the other night. Both Katie and Lebron 171 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,959 Speaker 2: had thirty five point near triple doubles. Lebron actually had 172 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 2: the triple double the night Lebron baptized Kevin Love. Katie 173 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 2: had a great game himself. They were playing at the 174 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 2: same time, and I thought about this, and Demons, you'll 175 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 2: remember this even though you're, you know, obviously younger than me. 176 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 2: Ten years ago. Ten years ago, this season, Katie and 177 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 2: Lebron played in the finals for the first time. They 178 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 2: were the two best players in the league. Nobody disputed it. 179 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 2: Five years later, Katie and Lebron played each other in 180 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 2: the finals again. They were in my estimation, I think 181 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 2: most people's believe, with respect Steph Curry, still the two 182 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 2: best players in the league. Nobody disputes it five years later, 183 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 2: So ten years after their first time meeting in the finals, 184 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 2: Katie and Lebron the two best players in the league 185 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 2: still know because Giannis is the best. But you could 186 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 2: make an argument that they are still top three guys. 187 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 2: They are clearly still top five guys, and yet both 188 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 2: of them are going to be in the play in 189 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 2: that right now. They're the eight and the nine seed, respectively, 190 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 2: and they both did choose this situation. So one could argue, yeah, 191 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 2: you know it has a player empowerment has cost them. 192 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 2: I think that is too narrow of a view, because 193 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 2: player empowerment is not only what got Lebron Lebron to 194 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 2: the Lakers, but Anthony Davis to the Lakers, and they 195 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 2: did win a title two seasons ago, so it worked 196 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 2: out for him there. Player empowerment not only got KD 197 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 2: to the nets, but got Kyrie there with him and 198 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 2: Hardened there with him, and everyone except for me, thought 199 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 2: that team was going to win a bunch of titles. 200 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:53,479 Speaker 2: What really killed Katie and Lebron is not player empowerment. 201 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 2: It's they chose the wrong point guard. Lebron chose Russell Westbrook, 202 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 2: and that has submarine Lakers season, even though Russ has 203 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 2: played better as of late, and Katie chose the least 204 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 2: reliable star in sports, Kyrie irving if those guys had 205 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 2: just had better, you know, we're less worried about. In 206 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 2: Katie's case, I think it was who his good friend 207 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 2: was and instead looked at it and said, you know, 208 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 2: looked at the Kyrie's history of health and lack of 209 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 2: reliability and consistency, and if Lebron, I think had Lebron's 210 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:30,679 Speaker 2: never been great at evaluating who would play well with him. 211 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 2: It's an odd thing, and I think Lebron's ego got 212 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 2: the best of them, thinking all Russ's issues won't apply 213 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 2: once he's with me, and obviously those issues have transcended 214 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 2: his teammates. So I don't blame that on player empowerment. 215 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 2: I blame that on Katie and Lebron both having a big, 216 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 2: strong hand in who they get to play with and 217 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 2: just making the wrong choices. If you know, player empowerment 218 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 2: could have gotten Demarta Rosen in Russell Westbrook spot instead 219 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 2: of Ussell Westbrook, and then the Lakers, even with all 220 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 2: the injuries, are huge favorites to win the West. And 221 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 2: if Kyrie, you know, whether it's the vaccine or injury, 222 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 2: whatever it is, if Kyrie were the player is but 223 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 2: just a more reliable person. If Katie had looked at 224 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,079 Speaker 2: the reliability part of it, I think Katie would be 225 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 2: in a better spot. So No, I don't blame player empowerment. 226 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 2: I just think they chose the wrong two point guards. 227 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 3: All right, what's next, Let's go to the NFL. YEP, 228 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 3: Fewer and fewer teams are needing a quarterback. Yeah, Matt 229 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 3: Ryan went to the Colts and Mariota one of the Falcons. Yeah, 230 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 3: Jamis stayed in New Orleans. 231 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 2: YEP. 232 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 3: Should the forty nine ers just keep Jimmy G at 233 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 3: this point? 234 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 2: No, I don't think they're going to keep Jimmy G. 235 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 2: I don't think they can. I don't think it's fair 236 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 2: to Trey Lance, and I don't think it's smart. You 237 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 2: can't give up three first round picks for a guy 238 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 2: and then in your two have him fighting for his job. 239 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 2: I do think demanse they're not going to get as 240 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 2: much for Jimmy G as they once thought they were 241 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 2: going to get for him. I'll tell you that much 242 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 2: that I think that they If you are looking at 243 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 2: when they should have traded him, do you think they 244 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 2: blew their chance to improve? Well, I don't think they. 245 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 2: I don't think they blew it, but I don't think 246 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,719 Speaker 2: they maximized their chance to improve. I think that they 247 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 2: needed to survey the landscape and realize if there's going 248 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 2: to be a game of quarterback musical chairs, we need 249 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 2: to make sure Jimmy G's got a seat early. Because 250 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 2: now it's not only you know that Wentz got traded, 251 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 2: so Washington's off the board, and Matt Ryan got traded, 252 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 2: so Indie's off the board, and you know the russ 253 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 2: got traded, so the Broncos are off the board. But 254 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,559 Speaker 2: it's also that all of a sudden, Baker Mayfield's available, 255 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 2: and so now there's another quarterback of similar caliber to 256 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 2: Jimmy G that is going to be in the marketplace. 257 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 2: So I don't think they blew their chance to improve, 258 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,679 Speaker 2: but I think the I think that had they timed 259 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 2: this better, I mean, Carson Wentz went for two seconds essentially, 260 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,680 Speaker 2: Jimmy G. I don't like Jimmy G a ton, I'm 261 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 2: skeptical of him, especially on a bad team, but he's 262 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 2: better than car Wentz. Are they gonna get more than 263 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:04,319 Speaker 2: two seconds for him? I don't think so. All Right, what's. 264 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:08,119 Speaker 3: Last the Sweet sixteen and Elite eighter this weekend? Yeah, 265 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 3: Gonzaga is a huge favorite to win it all. Yep, 266 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 3: all eyes will be on chat, yep. 267 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 2: Do you believe he'll ever be a star in the pros? 268 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 2: So this is tough because there chet home Grin checks 269 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 2: so many boxes. His numbers are great, his team is 270 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 2: the favorite. I don't think Gonzag is gonna win it all, 271 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 2: by the way, but his seems the favorite. And if 272 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 2: you look at even the first game they played in 273 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 2: the tournament, I didn't think he played well at all. 274 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 2: But then it's like you look at the numbers. I 275 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 2: think he had like nineteen seventeen and seven blocks, Like 276 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 2: his numbers were unbelievable. I'm going I'm gonna say something. 277 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 2: I hope it does not hurt your feelings because this 278 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 2: is somewhat about you. I'm gonna use you as a 279 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 2: comp Okay. 280 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 4: Okay, where I knew you had a ceiling as a 281 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 4: basketball player, and you were a great player, but there 282 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 4: was one part of your game that you just I 283 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 4: think it was too frustrating you refuse to just dedicate 284 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 4: yourself to your left hand dribbling your ball. 285 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 2: And I was like, Okay, Demanse's got a better player 286 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 2: than I ever could have been. It's gonna play college basketball, 287 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 2: but there's going to be a ceiling because there's an 288 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 2: obvious flaw. And it was just you were just working 289 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 2: on other stuff. You were working on defense or were 290 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 2: on shooting again. I feel badly for personally attacking you, 291 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 2: but it's the truth. Here's why I bring it up. 292 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 2: I think it is incredibly concerning that chet Holmer and 293 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 2: won't put on weight. How long of his basketball career 294 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 2: do you think people have been like Buddy. 295 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 3: Putting on weight in the left hand and like, I 296 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 3: feel like almost two different things. 297 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 2: You think it should be easier like that it's more 298 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 2: of an error by him than by you, is what 299 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 2: you're saying. Yeah, I mean, yes, that's what you're saying. 300 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 2: You're saying, putting on weight's easier than doing the drills. 301 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 2: Guy's got a high metabolism. Okay, maybe as a high 302 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 2: metabolism and I and I hear all these KD comps. Guys, 303 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 2: Katie is a unicorn for a reason, and Katie's bigger 304 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 2: than Chet, and so it is the only obvious flaw 305 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 2: on his game is he is literally the skinniest player 306 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 2: I've ever seen at a high level of basketball since 307 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 2: Keith Class. Now Keith Class. That's a throwback, but somebody 308 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 2: google him. He was once listed at seven one, one 309 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 2: point eighty. That's a real listing he had, and Keith Class, 310 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 2: by the way, didn't have the talent Chet does. I 311 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 2: just I feel like the Chet needs not a sandwich, 312 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 2: but like thirty five sandwiches. And it concerns me that 313 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 2: he hasn't just begrudgingly gone ahead and put on the weight. 314 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 2: That's that's I wouldn't draft him number one. I think 315 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 2: I'd be afraid to draft him in the top three. 316 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 2: Maybe I'll be wrong about it, but that to me 317 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 2: looks like a potential massive flaw. That's my deep Chet 318 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 2: holmegrin analysis. He's too damn skinny.

Now if you are this so the shows 334 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 2: a little out of order, because you've probably already heard 335 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 2: that and seen that. Within did what we thought was 336 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:02,919 Speaker 2: the start of the show. But before we get to 337 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:04,879 Speaker 2: what's supposed to be a fun b block where we 338 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 2: play games and do goofy stuff, I got a few 339 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 2: more Tyreek Kill thoughts because I am now. Demanzi said, 340 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 2: I'm going through the stages of grief, and I think 341 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 2: I'm in the bargaining stage now. And the bargaining stage 342 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 2: has drawn me to the twenty twenty two NFL Draft order. 343 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 2: Because again, by the time you hear this, this trade 344 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 2: maybe is already complete, but as I sit here on 345 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 2: Wednesday afternoon, it is not yet complete. And they're saying 346 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 2: the Dolphins and the Jets are the two teams most 347 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 2: heavily involved. Now, the Dolphins don't have a pick in 348 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 2: the first round of the draft next year until the 349 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,679 Speaker 2: twenty ninth pick. The Jets, on the other hand, have 350 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 2: the fourth pick, the tenth pick thanks to the Jamal 351 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 2: Adams trade, they have the thirty fifth pick, the thirty 352 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 2: eighth pick of this upcoming draft, so they have four 353 00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:01,200 Speaker 2: top forty picks. So now if I am let me again, 354 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,880 Speaker 2: obviously the Chiefs got worse for this coming year. While 355 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 2: every team is putting everything on the credit card, the 356 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,120 Speaker 2: Chiefs recognized me with the best player in football. He's 357 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 2: gonna be enough playing football for the next decade, if 358 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:14,479 Speaker 2: the not the next fifteen years. Let's try to have 359 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 2: long term planning about this. Can't have the highest paid 360 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 2: quarterback and or one of the highest pig quarterbacks and 361 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,960 Speaker 2: the highest paid receiver, especially with the highest paid receiver 362 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 2: maybe be on the other side of thirty. If we 363 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 2: can get and I say we for the Kansta Chiefs 364 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 2: honorary member, the tenth pick of the draft and next 365 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:38,200 Speaker 2: year's Jets first rounder, I'm I'm okay with it. I 366 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,120 Speaker 2: will be okay with it if we get the fourth 367 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:44,360 Speaker 2: in the tenth I actually think it's a good trade. Now, 368 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:48,440 Speaker 2: if you get the tenth pick and then just seconds, 369 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 2: that's not enough for me. But you do have they 370 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:54,960 Speaker 2: can now vote get the defense better. The Mahome's gonna 371 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 2: be great. No matter what. They need to find a 372 00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 2: way to improve the defense. They were going to not 373 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,879 Speaker 2: only have pay Tyreek Hill more, but even if they 374 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 2: hadn't maad him more, he's gonna be twenty million against 375 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:07,199 Speaker 2: the cap this year. I can deal now. If they 376 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,120 Speaker 2: end up trading him to Miami for the twenty ninth 377 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 2: pick in Miami's next year's first round, or when Miami 378 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 2: could be a you know, a fringe five hundred ish 379 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 2: team again, I won't love that. So by the time 380 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,199 Speaker 2: you hear this, they've traded him to the Dolphins for 381 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 2: the twenty ninth pick and future picks. I'm not happy. 382 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 2: Even if I go on television throughout the rest of 383 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,919 Speaker 2: the week and pretend I'm dealing with it. You'll know 384 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,880 Speaker 2: in real time as I'm processing it it's not landing 385 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 2: right with me. But at some here here's the and 386 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 2: I'm consistent on this. By the way, I don't always 387 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 2: think the team that got the star wide receiver won 388 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:45,199 Speaker 2: the trade. I said I thought the Raiders gave up 389 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 2: too much for Devonte Adams. So no hypocrisy here. Let's 390 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,120 Speaker 2: just see what the trade is. We can all agree 391 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 2: that if the Jets gave up ten first round picks 392 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 2: and give gave Tyreek forty million a year, that's a 393 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 2: bad trade for So that's the old adage. This is 394 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:07,439 Speaker 2: a again just there. Once we agree there is a 395 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 2: possibility that you've overpaid, then we are just negotiating on 396 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 2: what the line is to have it be overpaid. There's 397 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 2: an old joke involving prostitution that goes down that same 398 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 2: you've never heard that, none of your teacher's ever told 399 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 2: this to you, to try to logic class anything. I 400 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 2: never heard this. Okay, I'm gonna tell you this is. 401 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 2: By the way, it's taking a strange turn. Okay, Well, 402 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 2: it's an old adage. I don't know who came up 403 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 2: with it, And again, I'm not sure how twenty twenty 404 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,439 Speaker 2: two appropriate is. So I'm just going to say this 405 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 2: was told to me in logic class when I was 406 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,680 Speaker 2: in college. Take up the complaints with the University of 407 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 2: Syracuse University. It goes like this guy walks into a 408 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:54,120 Speaker 2: hotel lobby, sees a woman at the bar and says, 409 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 2: I'm sorry to bother you, but would you come up 410 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 2: to my room with me for one million dollars? And 411 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,400 Speaker 2: she looks at him and says, you know, I think 412 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 2: I would, And he says, okay, would you come up 413 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,119 Speaker 2: to my room with me for one hundred dollars? She 414 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 2: throws his drink in his face and says what type 415 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 2: of woman do you think I am? And he says, well, 416 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 2: we've already established. Now we're just negotiating. So again, inappropriate. 417 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 2: But that's the old that's what they were. The point 418 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 2: in the logic class, I remember when the teacher told it. Now, 419 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 2: maybe that teacher was inspired for telling inappropriate jokes, I'm 420 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 2: not sure, But the point is, once we all agree 421 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 2: that there is a line, then we're just agreeing on 422 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 2: where the line is. So now I think I'm still 423 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 2: in the bargaining phase of the Tyreek Kill grief part 424 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 2: of it, but everyone would agree there is a there 425 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 2: is a level of draft compensation the Chiefs could get 426 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,640 Speaker 2: where it is a good deal for them. We're gonna 427 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,879 Speaker 2: wait and see what that is. Wait is they're breaking 428 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 2: to know? There's not Tyreek Kill breaking news. There's Kevin 429 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 2: Wilde's tweeting Mac Jones at the Pro Bowls saying, I 430 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:03,639 Speaker 2: like throwing to Tyree. This is so stupid. All right, 431 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 2: let's play a game. Let's move on this or that. 432 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 2: What's first up? Todd for this or that? 433 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 3: Worst news for the Nets the vaccine mandate not changing 434 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 3: or Ben Simmons herniated disc. 435 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 2: Oh, listen, I think the worst news is Ben Simmons 436 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 2: because they had to anticipate that the vax mandate might 437 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,160 Speaker 2: not change. And I don't believe it's going to change 438 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 2: before the end of this basketball season. I do believe 439 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,120 Speaker 2: it will change by next basketball season, but I don't 440 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 2: think it's going to change before the end of this 441 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,680 Speaker 2: basketball season. In fact, just earlier today, Eric Adams, the 442 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 2: mayor of New York City, once again said he doesn't 443 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,159 Speaker 2: think it's going to change anytime soon. Ben Simmons hernia 444 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 2: disc is incredibly concerning. How did it happen? When did 445 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 2: it happen? When are we going to see him play again? 446 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 2: Like that? He was the core piece that you traded 447 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 2: James Harden for. Right, you can't have him all of 448 00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 2: a sudden. You already know what his limitations as a 449 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,160 Speaker 2: player are. You also know what's positive as a player are. 450 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,400 Speaker 2: You can't have him all of a sudden have a 451 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 2: back issue like that's to me, that's way more concerning. 452 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 2: All right, what's next. 453 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:14,399 Speaker 3: Better option for Indy between Matt Ryan and Carson Wentz. 454 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:16,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, this to me is very very simple. Matt Ryan. 455 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 2: I don't think Matt Ryan's great. That Matt Ryan is 456 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 2: going is the best quarterback that Indy has had since 457 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 2: Andrew Luck. I don't think that's debatable. And Carson Wentz, 458 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 2: some of us told you that Carson Wentz was gonna 459 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 2: be Carson Wentz, even when people are like, no, he's 460 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 2: no longer Carson Wentz. No, he was always Carson Wentz. 461 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,919 Speaker 2: So the fact that you got potentially two second rounders 462 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 2: for Carson Wentz, now you traded too much for him, 463 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 2: trading a first round or plus to get him, but 464 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 2: you got two second rounders back for Carson Wentz and 465 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 2: you only had to give up a third rounder for 466 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,440 Speaker 2: Matt Ryan. I think the Colt should be the favorites 467 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:54,880 Speaker 2: in the NFS in the AFC South, So I think 468 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,919 Speaker 2: that's to me, that's not even a question. Matt Ryan's 469 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 2: an upgrade over Carson Wentz. All right, what's next? 470 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 3: Coach K goes out on top or is eliminated by 471 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 3: our next show. 472 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 2: Oh that see, So my answer would be neither, but 473 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:12,640 Speaker 2: that's not an option. My answer would be they make 474 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 2: the final four, but they don't win it all, so 475 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:19,160 Speaker 2: I'm gonna stay eliminated by our next show. I don't think, 476 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 2: as much as I like Boncaro, I don't think Duke 477 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 2: is good enough to win the title. I think they 478 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,399 Speaker 2: should have lost to Michigan State. I think that was 479 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 2: a bit of a gag job by Michigan State down 480 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 2: the stretch there. So if I have to choose either 481 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 2: he's eliminated this week in Sweet sixteen Elite eight or 482 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 2: they win the whole thing, I'm going to go He's 483 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 2: eliminated this weekend. So with that, Coach K and Duke 484 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 2: is done by the next time we're on the air. 485 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 2: All right, what's last and we haven't seen a lot 486 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 2: of Zion in a while. 487 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 4: Nope, let's let's check on it. 488 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,440 Speaker 3: Let's take a look at this Instagram post here. 489 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 2: Okay, let's look at it. Oh got that? Yeah, okay, yeah, 490 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 2: look at that. That'll I mean, if you're by the way, 491 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 2: if you're not watching the show. This is something Zion 492 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 2: posted the other night to his ig. He is in 493 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 2: a Pelican's gym, which is noteworthy. He is also wearing 494 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:15,639 Speaker 2: his new sneakers. He's shirtless, looks to be. It doesn't 495 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 2: look as big as he looked when we saw those 496 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 2: pictures of him in sweatsuits earlier in the year. And 497 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:24,359 Speaker 2: he threw an off the backboard alleyup to himself that 498 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 2: he caught between his legs and did it, you know, 499 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 2: but basically off the backboard East Bay, which would have 500 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 2: I believed easily won the dunk contest this year. That's 501 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 2: what we just saw. So what's the question. 502 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 3: Is this encouraging or discouraging for Pelicans fans? 503 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,159 Speaker 2: So that's really interesting question. Whoever came up with that 504 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 2: one should get a raise. I came up with it. 505 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 2: So here's why it's incourage you could say encouraging, because 506 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 2: it shows that he's healthy ish and it is in 507 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,360 Speaker 2: a Pelican's gym, so like that as opposed in being 508 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 2: up in Portland where he was before, or up in 509 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:03,399 Speaker 2: the Pacific Northwest rehaving that's positive. The negative is and 510 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 2: the reason it would be discouraging is why he posted 511 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 2: this right after they ruled him out for the year, 512 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:14,160 Speaker 2: and so there seems to have been a disconnect all 513 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 2: along between the Pelicans and Zion and the fact that 514 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:21,400 Speaker 2: Zion had gone dark as far as any communication, any videos, 515 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 2: any anything. And then right after the Pelicans say he's 516 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 2: not playing the rest of the season as he rehabs 517 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 2: his foot, the fact that he then posts a video 518 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 2: that makes it look like his foot is totally fine 519 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,359 Speaker 2: and puts to bed some of the concern about his weight, 520 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 2: at least in my eyes. Now he's not slim, but 521 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:40,120 Speaker 2: he's the size he dominated the league at last year. 522 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 2: That's discouraging. Overall. I would say it's a net win 523 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 2: for the Pelicans Pelicans fans because I do believe he's 524 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 2: gonna sign the mass extent MAX extension this summer, and 525 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:53,920 Speaker 2: I do think they're gonna have more time, and the 526 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:57,440 Speaker 2: biggest concern should be how healthy is he? He looks 527 00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:00,159 Speaker 2: incredibly healthy right there, which is more than I can 528 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 2: say for myself as I've had to deal with this. 529 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:03,919 Speaker 2: Tyreek Hill, I got a little bonus question for you. 530 00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 2: We have a bonus question. 531 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 3: What's more devastating to you, Tyreek Hill or scrabble with Diora? 532 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 2: Oh my sister. Okay, listen people, all right, So this 533 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 2: is how we're gonna end the show. So I lost 534 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:19,959 Speaker 2: to my sixteen year old in scrabble, and you know what, 535 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,840 Speaker 2: I'm just gonna lash out. I apologize on the front 536 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 2: end of this, but I'm upset you guys are trying 537 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 2: to twist the knife on the Tyreek Kill thing. You 538 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 2: guys didn't let me process it in real time. You 539 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:31,920 Speaker 2: made you break it to me while I was live 540 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,639 Speaker 2: on the air. It's not right. So here's where I'm 541 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 2: gonna lash out. It would be devastating to lose to 542 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 2: you and scrabble. There's no shame in losing to Toran Scrabble. 543 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 2: I like, door is brilliant. Doora is like take your 544 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 2: education seriously. And I lost to you and Scrabble. I 545 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,719 Speaker 2: do some soul searching, losing to door and scrabble I 546 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:54,560 Speaker 2: can deal with. I'm done with this show for the 547 00:28:54,640 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 2: day and maybe forever. We'll see you next week. All right, 548 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 2: I'm still processing the Tyreek Kill news, some of which 549 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 2: there may be even more of by the time you 550 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 2: guys hear and see this. But do me a favor 551 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 2: as I deal with my hometown team that should have 552 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 2: won the last three Super Bowls, only winning one super 553 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,760 Speaker 2: Bowl and now trading away their second most important offensive 554 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 2: player reportedly like rate, subscribe review to the show on 555 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 2: all platforms.
