Speaker 2: But by the time you hear this, they've traded them
Speaker 2: to the Dolphins for the twenty ninth pick and future picks.
Speaker 2: I'm not happy. Even if I go on television throughout
Speaker 2: the rest of the week and pretend I'm dealing with it,
Speaker 2: You'll know in real time as I'm processing it, it's
Speaker 2: not landing right with me. All right, Welcome back in what'
Speaker 2: You Right with? Nick Wright Podcast and video show. Something
Speaker 2: very odd happened About ninety seconds ago. The producers in
Speaker 2: my ears told me, put your phone down. We're changing
Speaker 2: up the show. There is breaking news as we are
Speaker 2: recording again. You guys will be able to hear and
Speaker 2: see this Thursday morning afternoon, but we are recording it
Speaker 2: Wednesday morning, and the producers told me we have breaking news,
Speaker 2: so I'm going to pivot this way. Demon's what is
Speaker 2: the breaking news that we are breaking the format for.
Speaker 3: NFL networkers reporting that the Chiefs are allowing Tyreek Hill
Speaker 3: to seek a trade.
Speaker 2: No they're not. Yeah, stop, what's the actual breaking news?
Speaker 3: Just in on Twitter?
Speaker 2: But it's the NFL network? Yes, stop it got that's
Speaker 2: very okay. Hold on, give me a moment here, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay,
Speaker 2: So it is real. The Chiefs are gonna let after
Speaker 2: contract extension talks broke down, You're gonna let the Tyreek
Speaker 2: Kill see get trade. Oh okay, hold on, Tom pelasorrow
Speaker 2: has a follow up tweet. What is that? Sorry, we're
Speaker 2: doing this live. This is why you got schefter. What
Speaker 2: schefter gonna tell me? This is not true? Schefter? Oh
Speaker 2: the Dolphins or the Jets are involved. Okay, well that's
Speaker 2: the first piece of good news. Jets and Dolphins series
Speaker 2: talks trade for Chiefs watchers to Tyre Kill. Chiefs are
Speaker 2: mulling what to do, but Hills time and Casey looks
Speaker 2: like it's coming to an end. Jets and Dolphins is
Speaker 2: two teams now buying for Tyreek Hill expects to a
Speaker 2: massive contract extensions. Chiefs are gonna give a massive contract decision. Okay,
Speaker 2: all right, got your verification. I got my verification. Okay.
Speaker 2: So I'm not gonna sit here and pretend this is good.
Speaker 2: This obviously he's not good. However, I this is me
Speaker 2: my version of tweeting through it. Listen, Tyreek is one
Speaker 2: of the most unique, special, and talented receivers ever. He's
Speaker 2: on a Hall of Fame trajectory. I'm not gonna deny that.
Speaker 2: What I am gonna say is this. You know what
Speaker 2: positive spin on this threefold First one is if you
Speaker 2: trade with the Jets, you're getting a top five pick
Speaker 2: back the Dolphins. I'd be a little less excited, but
Speaker 2: still we could deal trade with the Jets. You get
Speaker 2: top five pick. That would be a positive thing. And
Speaker 2: maybe multiple maybe the Jets give out multiple picks. Who knows.
Speaker 2: Let's see what this trade possibly could be. If there's
Speaker 2: any breaking news, again tell me. And by the way,
Speaker 2: by the time people hear this, the trade might already
Speaker 2: have happened. But I'm dealing with this in real time.
Speaker 2: Here's another positive. I'm looking around the rest of the
Speaker 2: AFC West. Those teams are minus picks. The Broncos they
Speaker 2: don't have picks forever. Traded for mister limited Russell Wilson.
Speaker 2: That's true. Oh yeah, you're laughing at me. The Raiders,
Speaker 2: they're out of picks. They traded for Devonte Adams. So
Speaker 2: while all those teams are focused in the here and now,
Speaker 2: Chiefs have a long you know, one hundred yard of
Speaker 2: view in this thing setting up a dynastic run. Now,
Speaker 2: it's gonna be harder without Tyreek Hill. I understand that.
Speaker 2: But one other positive, you know what, two more positives.
Speaker 2: One is, you don't want to We've probably gotten the
Speaker 2: best out of Tyreek Hill. Gonna need the new receiver
Speaker 2: market things. DeVonta Adams twenty eight million a year. I'm
Speaker 2: not thrilled about the idea of paying tyreek Hill twenty
Speaker 2: eight million a year. So there's a nother positive. And lastly,
Speaker 2: is this the only arrow people could throw at my guy?
Speaker 2: Mahomes was, well, see him do it without tyreek Hill. Okay, well,
Speaker 2: now we're gonna see him do it without tyreek Hill.
Speaker 2: Mark was wuldas scantling. Let me see what his numbers
Speaker 2: were real quick. God, this is the worst of Ma's eight.
Speaker 2: All right, welcome in. It is the What's Right with
Speaker 2: Nick Right podcast and video show like rate subscribe, do
Speaker 2: all those things. I was ready to give you a
Speaker 2: full plea for those things. But here's the deal. We
Speaker 2: had a whole show planned and then the tyreek Kill
Speaker 2: news broke. We're gonna talk about it throughout the show.
Speaker 2: You've already gotten my live kind of candid camera thoughts
Speaker 2: on that, but that is not what we plan to
Speaker 2: discuss today. Before demands joins us to talk about what
Speaker 2: we will be discussing today in addition to the Tyreek
Speaker 2: Kill news. As we start every show, we tell you
Speaker 2: what we won't be discussing. So here's what's not on
Speaker 2: the show today. What's not on the show today is
Speaker 2: use of Nurkic tossing a fan's phone, which, by the way,
Speaker 2: forty thousand well spent, Mike Tyson fighting Jake Paul for
Speaker 2: reportedly one billion dollars that didn't make the show, and
Speaker 2: Jamal Crawford three times six Man of the Year. I
Speaker 2: once tweeted that Jamal Crawford was my son, who you're
Speaker 2: going to see in just a moment his favorite player.
Speaker 2: Jamal dm me and said, oh my gosh, that's so awesome.
Speaker 2: I'll send him some gear. I then told Jamal my
Speaker 2: son was at the time twenty two years old. He
Speaker 2: no longer sent the gear. I think he thought you
Speaker 2: were a little kid, which is why you never got it.
Speaker 2: Demon say that you didn't even know about that. Yeah, same,
Speaker 2: you didn't know. That's a true story. Yeah, Jamal Crawford,
Speaker 2: Seattle legend. All right, what are we starting with today?
Speaker 3: Okay, well, let's talk about the best team in basketball? Okay,
Speaker 3: the Phoenix Suns. I mean they have by far the
Speaker 3: best record in the NBA right now, yep.
Speaker 2: And by the time people see this last year this
Speaker 2: who might be back, Chris Paul might be back?
Speaker 3: Yes, I mean, do you think there's a chance that
Speaker 3: they won the title this year?
Speaker 2: So? I think there's certainly a chance. But they are
Speaker 2: absolutely not my pick. They are right, I understand the
Speaker 2: record says I need to respect him. Devin Booker's out
Speaker 2: here saying, hey, you know, if we were fair about MVPs,
Speaker 2: I you know, I'm the leading scorer. I argue to
Speaker 2: be the best player on the team with the best
Speaker 2: record by far. Isn't that usually enough to win MVP?
Speaker 2: And the answer Devin Booker quickly is yes, it usually
Speaker 2: is enough to win MVP. However, the problem there is
Speaker 2: it's kind of a Steph kd issue. Not that Chris
Speaker 2: Paul and Devin Booker are equivalent to Stephen cad but
Speaker 2: there's a real question about who is the best player
Speaker 2: on that team. Now, they have been great since Chris
Speaker 2: Paul was hurt, but they are obviously great with Chris Paul.
Speaker 2: I would argue Chris Paul is the most important guy.
Speaker 2: But so one would say, okay, so they have two
Speaker 2: legit MVP at least fringe MVP candidates, they have an
Speaker 2: excellent coach, they have a deep roster. Why are you
Speaker 2: not picking them to win a weekend Western Conference? Well,
Speaker 2: the real reason is I don't know that I trust
Speaker 2: Chris Paul to make it through four rounds or three rounds.
Speaker 2: Let's get to the finals healthy again. Now he did
Speaker 2: last year barely, Remember he almost got hurt in round one.
Speaker 2: And I think the back to back ninety plus game
Speaker 2: one hundred game seasons can wear on any team, particularly
Speaker 2: a team that doesn't have a ton of experience like
Speaker 2: Phoenix and the one guy with a lot of experiences
Speaker 2: and injury risk. Right my preseason pick to win the
Speaker 2: West and to get out of the to get to
Speaker 2: the finals was the Lakers. That clearly is dead right now,
Speaker 2: I'm telling you I don't think Phoenix makes out of
Speaker 2: Round two because I think the team they play in
Speaker 2: round two is the team that's going to go to
Speaker 2: the finals. I think this is the Dallas Mavericks year,
Speaker 2: not to win the title, but to get to the finals.
Speaker 2: I think Luca, who is the closest we have seen
Speaker 2: to Lebron in NBA history, or at least since Lebron,
Speaker 2: Luca is going to have his version of twenty two
Speaker 2: year old Lebron seven carrying a very weak Cavs team
Speaker 2: all the way to the NBA Finals, where they then
Speaker 2: got washed by the Spurs. I think Luca can carry
Speaker 2: the MAVs to the NBA Finals, where they then will
Speaker 2: get washed by the Bucks. So no disrespect to Phoenix,
Speaker 2: but I do not think they are winning the title
Speaker 2: this year. I just kind of alluded to Lebron there.
Speaker 2: It looks like we are talking about Lebron here. What
Speaker 2: are we discussing here, Demansey.
Speaker 3: The Lakers and Nets are both headed to the play in.
Speaker 2: It's unbelievable that they're both headed to the play in too, Yeah,
Speaker 2: it is. It's a crazy time.
Speaker 3: But despite Katie and Lebron both having great seasons, yep,
Speaker 3: do you think player empowerment is backfiring if the greatest
Speaker 3: guys stuck on really bad teams.
Speaker 2: So that's interesting because so I thought about this when
Speaker 2: I was watching the other night. Both Katie and Lebron
Speaker 2: had thirty five point near triple doubles. Lebron actually had
Speaker 2: the triple double the night Lebron baptized Kevin Love. Katie
Speaker 2: had a great game himself. They were playing at the
Speaker 2: same time, and I thought about this, and Demons, you'll
Speaker 2: remember this even though you're, you know, obviously younger than me.
Speaker 2: Ten years ago. Ten years ago, this season, Katie and
Speaker 2: Lebron played in the finals for the first time. They
Speaker 2: were the two best players in the league. Nobody disputed it.
Speaker 2: Five years later, Katie and Lebron played each other in
Speaker 2: the finals again. They were in my estimation, I think
Speaker 2: most people's believe, with respect Steph Curry, still the two
Speaker 2: best players in the league. Nobody disputes it five years later,
Speaker 2: So ten years after their first time meeting in the finals,
Speaker 2: Katie and Lebron the two best players in the league
Speaker 2: still know because Giannis is the best. But you could
Speaker 2: make an argument that they are still top three guys.
Speaker 2: They are clearly still top five guys, and yet both
Speaker 2: of them are going to be in the play in
Speaker 2: that right now. They're the eight and the nine seed, respectively,
Speaker 2: and they both did choose this situation. So one could argue, yeah,
Speaker 2: you know it has a player empowerment has cost them.
Speaker 2: I think that is too narrow of a view, because
Speaker 2: player empowerment is not only what got Lebron Lebron to
Speaker 2: the Lakers, but Anthony Davis to the Lakers, and they
Speaker 2: did win a title two seasons ago, so it worked
Speaker 2: out for him there. Player empowerment not only got KD
Speaker 2: to the nets, but got Kyrie there with him and
Speaker 2: Hardened there with him, and everyone except for me, thought
Speaker 2: that team was going to win a bunch of titles.
Speaker 2: What really killed Katie and Lebron is not player empowerment.
Speaker 2: It's they chose the wrong point guard. Lebron chose Russell Westbrook,
Speaker 2: and that has submarine Lakers season, even though Russ has
Speaker 2: played better as of late, and Katie chose the least
Speaker 2: reliable star in sports, Kyrie irving if those guys had
Speaker 2: just had better, you know, we're less worried about. In
Speaker 2: Katie's case, I think it was who his good friend
Speaker 2: was and instead looked at it and said, you know,
Speaker 2: looked at the Kyrie's history of health and lack of
Speaker 2: reliability and consistency, and if Lebron, I think had Lebron's
Speaker 2: never been great at evaluating who would play well with him.
Speaker 2: It's an odd thing, and I think Lebron's ego got
Speaker 2: the best of them, thinking all Russ's issues won't apply
Speaker 2: once he's with me, and obviously those issues have transcended
Speaker 2: his teammates. So I don't blame that on player empowerment.
Speaker 2: I blame that on Katie and Lebron both having a big,
Speaker 2: strong hand in who they get to play with and
Speaker 2: just making the wrong choices. If you know, player empowerment
Speaker 2: could have gotten Demarta Rosen in Russell Westbrook spot instead
Speaker 2: of Ussell Westbrook, and then the Lakers, even with all
Speaker 2: the injuries, are huge favorites to win the West. And
Speaker 2: if Kyrie, you know, whether it's the vaccine or injury,
Speaker 2: whatever it is, if Kyrie were the player is but
Speaker 2: just a more reliable person. If Katie had looked at
Speaker 2: the reliability part of it, I think Katie would be
Speaker 2: in a better spot. So No, I don't blame player empowerment.
Speaker 2: I just think they chose the wrong two point guards.
Speaker 3: All right, what's next, Let's go to the NFL. YEP,
Speaker 3: Fewer and fewer teams are needing a quarterback. Yeah, Matt
Speaker 3: Ryan went to the Colts and Mariota one of the Falcons. Yeah,
Speaker 3: Jamis stayed in New Orleans.
Speaker 2: YEP.
Speaker 3: Should the forty nine ers just keep Jimmy G at
Speaker 3: this point?
Speaker 2: No, I don't think they're going to keep Jimmy G.
Speaker 2: I don't think they can. I don't think it's fair
Speaker 2: to Trey Lance, and I don't think it's smart. You
Speaker 2: can't give up three first round picks for a guy
Speaker 2: and then in your two have him fighting for his job.
Speaker 2: I do think demanse they're not going to get as
Speaker 2: much for Jimmy G as they once thought they were
Speaker 2: going to get for him. I'll tell you that much
Speaker 2: that I think that they If you are looking at
Speaker 2: when they should have traded him, do you think they
Speaker 2: blew their chance to improve? Well, I don't think they.
Speaker 2: I don't think they blew it, but I don't think
Speaker 2: they maximized their chance to improve. I think that they
Speaker 2: needed to survey the landscape and realize if there's going
Speaker 2: to be a game of quarterback musical chairs, we need
Speaker 2: to make sure Jimmy G's got a seat early. Because
Speaker 2: now it's not only you know that Wentz got traded,
Speaker 2: so Washington's off the board, and Matt Ryan got traded,
Speaker 2: so Indie's off the board, and you know the russ
Speaker 2: got traded, so the Broncos are off the board. But
Speaker 2: it's also that all of a sudden, Baker Mayfield's available,
Speaker 2: and so now there's another quarterback of similar caliber to
Speaker 2: Jimmy G that is going to be in the marketplace.
Speaker 2: So I don't think they blew their chance to improve,
Speaker 2: but I think the I think that had they timed
Speaker 2: this better, I mean, Carson Wentz went for two seconds essentially,
Speaker 2: Jimmy G. I don't like Jimmy G a ton, I'm
Speaker 2: skeptical of him, especially on a bad team, but he's
Speaker 2: better than car Wentz. Are they gonna get more than
Speaker 2: two seconds for him? I don't think so. All Right, what's.
Speaker 3: Last the Sweet sixteen and Elite eighter this weekend? Yeah,
Speaker 3: Gonzaga is a huge favorite to win it all. Yep,
Speaker 3: all eyes will be on chat, yep.
Speaker 2: Do you believe he'll ever be a star in the pros?
Speaker 2: So this is tough because there chet home Grin checks
Speaker 2: so many boxes. His numbers are great, his team is
Speaker 2: the favorite. I don't think Gonzag is gonna win it all,
Speaker 2: by the way, but his seems the favorite. And if
Speaker 2: you look at even the first game they played in
Speaker 2: the tournament, I didn't think he played well at all.
Speaker 2: But then it's like you look at the numbers. I
Speaker 2: think he had like nineteen seventeen and seven blocks, Like
Speaker 2: his numbers were unbelievable. I'm going I'm gonna say something.
Speaker 2: I hope it does not hurt your feelings because this
Speaker 2: is somewhat about you. I'm gonna use you as a
Speaker 2: comp Okay.
Speaker 4: Okay, where I knew you had a ceiling as a
Speaker 4: basketball player, and you were a great player, but there
Speaker 4: was one part of your game that you just I
Speaker 4: think it was too frustrating you refuse to just dedicate
Speaker 4: yourself to your left hand dribbling your ball.
Speaker 2: And I was like, Okay, Demanse's got a better player
Speaker 2: than I ever could have been. It's gonna play college basketball,
Speaker 2: but there's going to be a ceiling because there's an
Speaker 2: obvious flaw. And it was just you were just working
Speaker 2: on other stuff. You were working on defense or were
Speaker 2: on shooting again. I feel badly for personally attacking you,
Speaker 2: but it's the truth. Here's why I bring it up.
Speaker 2: I think it is incredibly concerning that chet Holmer and
Speaker 2: won't put on weight. How long of his basketball career
Speaker 2: do you think people have been like Buddy.
Speaker 3: Putting on weight in the left hand and like, I
Speaker 3: feel like almost two different things.
Speaker 2: You think it should be easier like that it's more
Speaker 2: of an error by him than by you, is what
Speaker 2: you're saying. Yeah, I mean, yes, that's what you're saying.
Speaker 2: You're saying, putting on weight's easier than doing the drills.
Speaker 2: Guy's got a high metabolism. Okay, maybe as a high
Speaker 2: metabolism and I and I hear all these KD comps. Guys,
Speaker 2: Katie is a unicorn for a reason, and Katie's bigger
Speaker 2: than Chet, and so it is the only obvious flaw
Speaker 2: on his game is he is literally the skinniest player
Speaker 2: I've ever seen at a high level of basketball since
Speaker 2: Keith Class. Now Keith Class. That's a throwback, but somebody
Speaker 2: google him. He was once listed at seven one, one
Speaker 2: point eighty. That's a real listing he had, and Keith Class,
Speaker 2: by the way, didn't have the talent Chet does. I
Speaker 2: just I feel like the Chet needs not a sandwich,
Speaker 2: but like thirty five sandwiches. And it concerns me that
Speaker 2: he hasn't just begrudgingly gone ahead and put on the weight.
Speaker 2: That's that's I wouldn't draft him number one. I think
Speaker 2: I'd be afraid to draft him in the top three.
Speaker 2: Maybe I'll be wrong about it, but that to me
Speaker 2: looks like a potential massive flaw. That's my deep Chet
Speaker 2: holmegrin analysis. He's too damn skinny. We'll be right back.

Speaker 2: All Right, welcome back in What's Right with Nick Right
Speaker 2: podcast and videos show. If you are listening, this is
Speaker 2: one worth finding on YouTube or Facebook wherever, because you
Speaker 2: get to see my real time facial reaction and expressions
Speaker 2: to a few minutes ago when Demanse broke the news
Speaker 2: to me that the Chiefs are letting Tyree Kill seek
Speaker 2: a trade. Now if you are this so the shows
Speaker 2: a little out of order, because you've probably already heard
Speaker 2: that and seen that. Within did what we thought was
Speaker 2: the start of the show. But before we get to
Speaker 2: what's supposed to be a fun b block where we
Speaker 2: play games and do goofy stuff, I got a few
Speaker 2: more Tyreek Kill thoughts because I am now. Demanzi said,
Speaker 2: I'm going through the stages of grief, and I think
Speaker 2: I'm in the bargaining stage now. And the bargaining stage
Speaker 2: has drawn me to the twenty twenty two NFL Draft order.
Speaker 2: Because again, by the time you hear this, this trade
Speaker 2: maybe is already complete, but as I sit here on
Speaker 2: Wednesday afternoon, it is not yet complete. And they're saying
Speaker 2: the Dolphins and the Jets are the two teams most
Speaker 2: heavily involved. Now, the Dolphins don't have a pick in
Speaker 2: the first round of the draft next year until the
Speaker 2: twenty ninth pick. The Jets, on the other hand, have
Speaker 2: the fourth pick, the tenth pick thanks to the Jamal
Speaker 2: Adams trade, they have the thirty fifth pick, the thirty
Speaker 2: eighth pick of this upcoming draft, so they have four
Speaker 2: top forty picks. So now if I am let me again,
Speaker 2: obviously the Chiefs got worse for this coming year. While
Speaker 2: every team is putting everything on the credit card, the
Speaker 2: Chiefs recognized me with the best player in football. He's
Speaker 2: gonna be enough playing football for the next decade, if
Speaker 2: the not the next fifteen years. Let's try to have
Speaker 2: long term planning about this. Can't have the highest paid
Speaker 2: quarterback and or one of the highest pig quarterbacks and
Speaker 2: the highest paid receiver, especially with the highest paid receiver
Speaker 2: maybe be on the other side of thirty. If we
Speaker 2: can get and I say we for the Kansta Chiefs
Speaker 2: honorary member, the tenth pick of the draft and next
Speaker 2: year's Jets first rounder, I'm I'm okay with it. I
Speaker 2: will be okay with it if we get the fourth
Speaker 2: in the tenth I actually think it's a good trade. Now,
Speaker 2: if you get the tenth pick and then just seconds,
Speaker 2: that's not enough for me. But you do have they
Speaker 2: can now vote get the defense better. The Mahome's gonna
Speaker 2: be great. No matter what. They need to find a
Speaker 2: way to improve the defense. They were going to not
Speaker 2: only have pay Tyreek Hill more, but even if they
Speaker 2: hadn't maad him more, he's gonna be twenty million against
Speaker 2: the cap this year. I can deal now. If they
Speaker 2: end up trading him to Miami for the twenty ninth
Speaker 2: pick in Miami's next year's first round, or when Miami
Speaker 2: could be a you know, a fringe five hundred ish
Speaker 2: team again, I won't love that. So by the time
Speaker 2: you hear this, they've traded him to the Dolphins for
Speaker 2: the twenty ninth pick and future picks. I'm not happy.
Speaker 2: Even if I go on television throughout the rest of
Speaker 2: the week and pretend I'm dealing with it. You'll know
Speaker 2: in real time as I'm processing it it's not landing
Speaker 2: right with me. But at some here here's the and
Speaker 2: I'm consistent on this. By the way, I don't always
Speaker 2: think the team that got the star wide receiver won
Speaker 2: the trade. I said I thought the Raiders gave up
Speaker 2: too much for Devonte Adams. So no hypocrisy here. Let's
Speaker 2: just see what the trade is. We can all agree
Speaker 2: that if the Jets gave up ten first round picks
Speaker 2: and give gave Tyreek forty million a year, that's a
Speaker 2: bad trade for So that's the old adage. This is
Speaker 2: a again just there. Once we agree there is a
Speaker 2: possibility that you've overpaid, then we are just negotiating on
Speaker 2: what the line is to have it be overpaid. There's
Speaker 2: an old joke involving prostitution that goes down that same
Speaker 2: you've never heard that, none of your teacher's ever told
Speaker 2: this to you, to try to logic class anything. I
Speaker 2: never heard this. Okay, I'm gonna tell you this is.
Speaker 2: By the way, it's taking a strange turn. Okay, Well,
Speaker 2: it's an old adage. I don't know who came up
Speaker 2: with it, And again, I'm not sure how twenty twenty
Speaker 2: two appropriate is. So I'm just going to say this
Speaker 2: was told to me in logic class when I was
Speaker 2: in college. Take up the complaints with the University of
Speaker 2: Syracuse University. It goes like this guy walks into a
Speaker 2: hotel lobby, sees a woman at the bar and says,
Speaker 2: I'm sorry to bother you, but would you come up
Speaker 2: to my room with me for one million dollars? And
Speaker 2: she looks at him and says, you know, I think
Speaker 2: I would, And he says, okay, would you come up
Speaker 2: to my room with me for one hundred dollars? She
Speaker 2: throws his drink in his face and says what type
Speaker 2: of woman do you think I am? And he says, well,
Speaker 2: we've already established. Now we're just negotiating. So again, inappropriate.
Speaker 2: But that's the old that's what they were. The point
Speaker 2: in the logic class, I remember when the teacher told it. Now,
Speaker 2: maybe that teacher was inspired for telling inappropriate jokes, I'm
Speaker 2: not sure, But the point is, once we all agree
Speaker 2: that there is a line, then we're just agreeing on
Speaker 2: where the line is. So now I think I'm still
Speaker 2: in the bargaining phase of the Tyreek Kill grief part
Speaker 2: of it, but everyone would agree there is a there
Speaker 2: is a level of draft compensation the Chiefs could get
Speaker 2: where it is a good deal for them. We're gonna
Speaker 2: wait and see what that is. Wait is they're breaking
Speaker 2: to know? There's not Tyreek Kill breaking news. There's Kevin
Speaker 2: Wilde's tweeting Mac Jones at the Pro Bowls saying, I
Speaker 2: like throwing to Tyree. This is so stupid. All right,
Speaker 2: let's play a game. Let's move on this or that.
Speaker 2: What's first up? Todd for this or that?
Speaker 3: Worst news for the Nets the vaccine mandate not changing
Speaker 3: or Ben Simmons herniated disc.
Speaker 2: Oh, listen, I think the worst news is Ben Simmons
Speaker 2: because they had to anticipate that the vax mandate might
Speaker 2: not change. And I don't believe it's going to change
Speaker 2: before the end of this basketball season. I do believe
Speaker 2: it will change by next basketball season, but I don't
Speaker 2: think it's going to change before the end of this
Speaker 2: basketball season. In fact, just earlier today, Eric Adams, the
Speaker 2: mayor of New York City, once again said he doesn't
Speaker 2: think it's going to change anytime soon. Ben Simmons hernia
Speaker 2: disc is incredibly concerning. How did it happen? When did
Speaker 2: it happen? When are we going to see him play again?
Speaker 2: Like that? He was the core piece that you traded
Speaker 2: James Harden for. Right, you can't have him all of
Speaker 2: a sudden. You already know what his limitations as a
Speaker 2: player are. You also know what's positive as a player are.
Speaker 2: You can't have him all of a sudden have a
Speaker 2: back issue like that's to me, that's way more concerning.
Speaker 2: All right, what's next.
Speaker 3: Better option for Indy between Matt Ryan and Carson Wentz.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this to me is very very simple. Matt Ryan.
Speaker 2: I don't think Matt Ryan's great. That Matt Ryan is
Speaker 2: going is the best quarterback that Indy has had since
Speaker 2: Andrew Luck. I don't think that's debatable. And Carson Wentz,
Speaker 2: some of us told you that Carson Wentz was gonna
Speaker 2: be Carson Wentz, even when people are like, no, he's
Speaker 2: no longer Carson Wentz. No, he was always Carson Wentz.
Speaker 2: So the fact that you got potentially two second rounders
Speaker 2: for Carson Wentz, now you traded too much for him,
Speaker 2: trading a first round or plus to get him, but
Speaker 2: you got two second rounders back for Carson Wentz and
Speaker 2: you only had to give up a third rounder for
Speaker 2: Matt Ryan. I think the Colt should be the favorites
Speaker 2: in the NFS in the AFC South, So I think
Speaker 2: that's to me, that's not even a question. Matt Ryan's
Speaker 2: an upgrade over Carson Wentz. All right, what's next?
Speaker 3: Coach K goes out on top or is eliminated by
Speaker 3: our next show.
Speaker 2: Oh that see, So my answer would be neither, but
Speaker 2: that's not an option. My answer would be they make
Speaker 2: the final four, but they don't win it all, so
Speaker 2: I'm gonna stay eliminated by our next show. I don't think,
Speaker 2: as much as I like Boncaro, I don't think Duke
Speaker 2: is good enough to win the title. I think they
Speaker 2: should have lost to Michigan State. I think that was
Speaker 2: a bit of a gag job by Michigan State down
Speaker 2: the stretch there. So if I have to choose either
Speaker 2: he's eliminated this week in Sweet sixteen Elite eight or
Speaker 2: they win the whole thing, I'm going to go He's
Speaker 2: eliminated this weekend. So with that, Coach K and Duke
Speaker 2: is done by the next time we're on the air.
Speaker 2: All right, what's last and we haven't seen a lot
Speaker 2: of Zion in a while.
Speaker 4: Nope, let's let's check on it.
Speaker 3: Let's take a look at this Instagram post here.
Speaker 2: Okay, let's look at it. Oh got that? Yeah, okay, yeah,
Speaker 2: look at that. That'll I mean, if you're by the way,
Speaker 2: if you're not watching the show. This is something Zion
Speaker 2: posted the other night to his ig. He is in
Speaker 2: a Pelican's gym, which is noteworthy. He is also wearing
Speaker 2: his new sneakers. He's shirtless, looks to be. It doesn't
Speaker 2: look as big as he looked when we saw those
Speaker 2: pictures of him in sweatsuits earlier in the year. And
Speaker 2: he threw an off the backboard alleyup to himself that
Speaker 2: he caught between his legs and did it, you know,
Speaker 2: but basically off the backboard East Bay, which would have
Speaker 2: I believed easily won the dunk contest this year. That's
Speaker 2: what we just saw. So what's the question.
Speaker 3: Is this encouraging or discouraging for Pelicans fans?
Speaker 2: So that's really interesting question. Whoever came up with that
Speaker 2: one should get a raise. I came up with it.
Speaker 2: So here's why it's incourage you could say encouraging, because
Speaker 2: it shows that he's healthy ish and it is in
Speaker 2: a Pelican's gym, so like that as opposed in being
Speaker 2: up in Portland where he was before, or up in
Speaker 2: the Pacific Northwest rehaving that's positive. The negative is and
Speaker 2: the reason it would be discouraging is why he posted
Speaker 2: this right after they ruled him out for the year,
Speaker 2: and so there seems to have been a disconnect all
Speaker 2: along between the Pelicans and Zion and the fact that
Speaker 2: Zion had gone dark as far as any communication, any videos,
Speaker 2: any anything. And then right after the Pelicans say he's
Speaker 2: not playing the rest of the season as he rehabs
Speaker 2: his foot, the fact that he then posts a video
Speaker 2: that makes it look like his foot is totally fine
Speaker 2: and puts to bed some of the concern about his weight,
Speaker 2: at least in my eyes. Now he's not slim, but
Speaker 2: he's the size he dominated the league at last year.
Speaker 2: That's discouraging. Overall. I would say it's a net win
Speaker 2: for the Pelicans Pelicans fans because I do believe he's
Speaker 2: gonna sign the mass extent MAX extension this summer, and
Speaker 2: I do think they're gonna have more time, and the
Speaker 2: biggest concern should be how healthy is he? He looks
Speaker 2: incredibly healthy right there, which is more than I can
Speaker 2: say for myself as I've had to deal with this.
Speaker 2: Tyreek Hill, I got a little bonus question for you.
Speaker 2: We have a bonus question.
Speaker 3: What's more devastating to you, Tyreek Hill or scrabble with Diora?
Speaker 2: Oh my sister. Okay, listen people, all right, So this
Speaker 2: is how we're gonna end the show. So I lost
Speaker 2: to my sixteen year old in scrabble, and you know what,
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna lash out. I apologize on the front
Speaker 2: end of this, but I'm upset you guys are trying
Speaker 2: to twist the knife on the Tyreek Kill thing. You
Speaker 2: guys didn't let me process it in real time. You
Speaker 2: made you break it to me while I was live
Speaker 2: on the air. It's not right. So here's where I'm
Speaker 2: gonna lash out. It would be devastating to lose to
Speaker 2: you and scrabble. There's no shame in losing to Toran Scrabble.
Speaker 2: I like, door is brilliant. Doora is like take your
Speaker 2: education seriously. And I lost to you and Scrabble. I
Speaker 2: do some soul searching, losing to door and scrabble I
Speaker 2: can deal with. I'm done with this show for the
Speaker 2: day and maybe forever. We'll see you next week. All right,
Speaker 2: I'm still processing the Tyreek Kill news, some of which
Speaker 2: there may be even more of by the time you
Speaker 2: guys hear and see this. But do me a favor
Speaker 2: as I deal with my hometown team that should have
Speaker 2: won the last three Super Bowls, only winning one super
Speaker 2: Bowl and now trading away their second most important offensive
Speaker 2: player reportedly like rate, subscribe review to the show on
Speaker 2: all platforms. It's the only thing that will help me
Speaker 2: sleep at night as I deal with all of this.
Speaker 2: Talk to y'all next week.
