Speaker 2: Blanios broadcasting live from the Fox Sports Radio studios. A

4
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 2: one verse three matchup on our screens. Mantias, Michigan and

5
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:17,759
Speaker 2: Duke taking on. This is only like the eighth or

6
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:19,599
Speaker 2: ninth time these two teams have played.

7
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 3: I've like been ever. Yeah, they don't play off the

8
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:23,480
Speaker 3: like regular season.

9
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:27,360
Speaker 2: They don't play off ACC Big Ten generally they have

10
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,440
Speaker 2: that ACC Big Ten challenge. But yeah, there's only been

11
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:32,599
Speaker 2: a handful of them, but they all seem to have

12
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 2: kind of big stakes.

13
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:34,520
Speaker 3: When they meet.

14
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 2: It's almost always like in the tournament with you the

15
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 2: Fab five and do like, so there's always kind of

16
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 2: like college basketball history behind it all.

17
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:44,559
Speaker 3: But anyway, how are you?

18
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,440

Speaker 5: Wasn't your first time either?

36
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 4: I know I'm throwing so many questions at you, but

37
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 4: had you celebrated Marty Group before? Was this the first time?

38
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 3: All of that.

39
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 2: I'm a Mardi grow veteran. I'm thirty six years old.

40
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 2: I've probably been I'd estimate i've been to seventeen or

41
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:43,279
Speaker 2: eighteen wow, and I like, maybe okay, maybe I'll shoulder,

42
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 2: but fifteen or so.

43
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 3: Like legitimately regular.

44
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:46,759
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a regular.

45
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 2: I grew up going to Mudi Groun. White Girl is

46
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 2: very much a family holiday. If you are not, there

47
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 2: are certain places where you can go where you know,

48
00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 2: all right, there's nowhere for kids here, But then there's

49
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 2: also very much places where you can go. We're like, no,

50
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 2: there's kids here, this is where we're gonna be. And

51
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 2: we did the old people in Toddler Mardi Gras for

52
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 2: a few days. I actually had one day if Shilah

53
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:10,799
Speaker 2: buff Mardi Gras, and that's.

54
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 3: Enough for me.

55
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 4: I was in Marty Grass years ago, years ago.

56
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 3: I wondered if you had been, you would I figured

57
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 3: you would enjoy it.

58
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 4: I would enjoy it. But I went. I just happened

59
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:25,399
Speaker 4: to book a commercial and they sent me to New

60
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,799
Speaker 4: Orleans during Marty Grass. Now I'm gonnaell you the commercial

61
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 4: because it doesn't matter because I was cut.

62
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 5: That's the life of an actor. I was cut and

63
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 5: it was a big commercial.

64
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 3: You see.

65
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 2: I'm glad you specified with the life of an actor

66
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 2: because that's one of those English is a confusing language thing,

67
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:40,920
Speaker 2: because when you said you booked a commercial, I thought

68
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 2: you meant a commercial plane, which I just called I

69
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 2: went right, So I was like, damn, what's it like

70
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:47,359
Speaker 2: to fly private all the time?

71
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 3: All right?

72
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 5: I booked a commercial. It was a big one, and

73
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 5: I was cut from it.

74
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 3: Woo woo woo.

75
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 4: But it took place during Marty Grass, and so I

76
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 4: was there during that week and I remember like I

77
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 4: was by myself, and I like asked the cast.

78
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,919
Speaker 5: As how old were you twenty.

79
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 3: Old enough to be old enough to.

80
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 4: Go outside, but I was alone, and I just remember

81
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 4: being like, can I can I walk Bourbon Street alone?

82
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 4: Like am I gonna be? Okay? And they're like, yeah,

83
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 4: just do it before the sun goes down, and I

84
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 4: was like, okay, it's good advice, got it, got it.

85
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 4: So I was able to do it on my own

86
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:18,359
Speaker 4: and I experienced it a little bit.

87
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 3: What day of the week was it.

88
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,359
Speaker 4: I was there for like four days, like all week, okay,

89
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 4: Monday through like Thursday.

90
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 3: So WHYDI Gras ends on a Tuesday, So.

91
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 4: Then I was maybe there. Maybe I'm wrong, but it

92
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 4: was like in the middle of it.

93
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 3: No, sure, I would imagine that you were there.

94
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 4: Maybe Sunday to Wednesday.

95
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 3: It's you know what I mean That that sounds about

96
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 3: more like you.

97
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 2: Was the reason I was asking, because each day has

98
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 2: its own little vibe and thing to it. And if

99
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 2: you had told me that you were down even pre

100
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 2: sun like sun up high noon on Mardi Gras Day,

101
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:50,800

00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 2: doubting Mardi Gras. I'm saying Noon, Bourbon Street, Mighty Gras day.

Speaker 2: Sure at twenty five, no matter how old you are,

107
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 2: looks different just years later, right, you know what I'm saying.

108
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 3: When you turn that just years.

109
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 2: Later, it looks different and it looks like, wow, I

00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 2: ushould do that.

111
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,840
Speaker 3: You can look wistfully back at it like that looked fun.

112
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 5: It was so fun.

113
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 3: But there's plenty of fun that is not that that

114
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 3: there is to have both.

115
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:28,239
Speaker 2: So I'm glad I was able to go using notes.

116
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:32,040
Speaker 2: Lane Kiffin the was there? Do I send you pictures

117
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:37,159

118
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 2: the King of Indemion, which rolls Saturday night as U

119
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 2: and he was I was near the beginning of the

120
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 2: parade route and Lane Kiffen was trying like hell to

121
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 2: get the attention of somebody underneath him on the float.

122
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 3: And Lane Kiffin is just what throwing beads at this.

123
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,479
Speaker 2: Guy, and my poor guy has no idea where they're

124
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 2: coming from. And he's like, hey, smacking the side of

125
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 2: the think hey, look up here.

126
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 3: I don't know what lang Kiffin wanted.

127
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 2: Because he never got his attention in the time, you know,

128
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 2: the fifteen seconds that he was in front of me.

129
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:12,720
Speaker 3: But I got the pictures. I'll show you. Like to

00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 2: could tell you know, Yeah, yeah, Look there he is.

133
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 2: He's snapping his fingers. He's snapping his fingers.

134
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,479
Speaker 5: That face that is the face of someone in charge.

135
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 3: He meant business.

136
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 4: He met.

137
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,039
Speaker 2: Yes, he definitely meant business. That's the face of a

138
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 2: thirteen million dollars a year man. Thirteen million dollar man.

139
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,039
Speaker 2: Don't have to wait for much lang Kiffin had. Even

140
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 2: Mardi Gras makes Lane Kiffin wait, childa buff foun out

141
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 2: the wrong way. You gotta have cash.

142
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 3: Gotta have cash. What are you doing it? Go no cash?

143
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 3: That's your thing. You know.

144
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 2: If you have twenty bucks, you have more drinks than

145
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 2: you have hands, you're in good shape.

146
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 3: You're in good shape, You're in good ship. So I

147
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,679
Speaker 3: saw that the NBA decided to have an off star game.

148
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 5: Listen, hold on a second.

149
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 4: It wasn't the.

150
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,720
Speaker 3: Worst I know.

151
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 4: It wasn't. I mean, the last championship game where the

152
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 4: old guys had to play three games in a row.

153
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 5: They were definitely gas.

154
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 4: Poor Kawhi scored thirty one points in the one before

155
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 4: in under twelve minutes, couldn't get much in the championship game.

156
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 4: It was competitive way more than anticipated. I I mean,

157
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 4: like I was here, would I have watched it at home?

158
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 3: Sure that I don't know.

159
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 4: I was more upset Martin, and I yelled about it.

160
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 4: Here we go when you were in here about the

161
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:33,599
Speaker 4: three point shooting contest starting at two pm five Eastern

162
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 4: and not knowing about it?

163
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 3: Did you know that? MONSI? I had no idea what day?

164
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 2: Like you, I was, honestly, this was when I had

165
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 2: this was my All Star game interaction.

166
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,840
Speaker 3: I looked on the app that I used to.

167
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 2: Track scores to try to see who was doing well,

168
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 2: and I couldn't figure out. I was like, you know what,

169
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 2: Sure I am at Mardy Graw, I'm just gonna stop ye.

170
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 3: But I get that.

171
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 2: And I saw that when apparently got everybody's juicy slun.

172
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 2: I saw Anthony Edwards saying that he played a big

173
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 2: part in it.

174
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 3: But the reason why, I was like, apparently that.

175
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,239
Speaker 2: Happened and you know, I just find it funny because

176
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 2: within I saw that, and then as soon as I got.

177
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 3: Back into the sports world, it was doesn't matter, you

178
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 3: know what.

179
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 2: Uta set there starters in the fourth quarter and tanking

180
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 2: his back in a major way.

181
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 3: And here's the thing.

182
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 2: There was a article today that came out in The

183
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 2: Athletic that kind of goes through Adam Silver's video call

184
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 2: that he had with the nfba's general managers. Montea sets

185
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 2: the scene. So I love these type of articles. General

186
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 2: managers assembled in their homes, hotels or team headquarters across

187
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 2: North of America, shifted in their chairls the discomfort cutting

188
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 2: through the zoom is by Joe Varden. Sam Amy as

189
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 2: I give this interpretive dance, Okay says it outlined basically

190
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 2: the league's ideas for anti tanking measures that complee implemented as.

191
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 3: Soon as next season.

192
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 2: Shawn Marks of the Brooklyn Nets, My first memory of

193
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 2: Sean Marks was when they he got the KD Kyrie,

194
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 2: James Hard and Combo together and then Kyrie within a

195
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 2: week and a half later.

196
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 3: Basically said we don't need a head coach.

197
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 2: That like that's my memory of like the Shawn Marks

198
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 2: and Steve Nash.

199
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 4: Absolutely.

200
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 3: Yeah.

201
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 2: So Shawn Marks, who's been the general manager of the

202
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 2: Brooklyn Nets for two years and whose team is in

203
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 2: year two of a strategic rebuild, now I am asserting

204
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,719
Speaker 2: that Sewn Marx is asserting that his team is in

205
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,680
Speaker 2: year two of the strategic rebuild. The Nets have been

206
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 2: attempting to be in a rebuild for quite some time.

207
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 2: So maybe the prior wasn't as strategic, right as they

208
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,719
Speaker 2: shipped off KD Kyrie at Harden, like because that's the

209
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 2: last time about that team was relevant, right, So.

210
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 3: Like they've been in a rebuild for quite sometimes.

211
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,839
Speaker 2: So maybe this is this year or two of playing three,

212
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 2: but we're getting out or figuring it out anyway, it said.

213
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 2: He assumed that the changes would be made before this

214
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 2: year's draft, which he felt might read unfair to executives.

215
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 2: Midway through a quote previously accepted practice that had benefited

216
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 2: other teams, he said, quote, Mark said, have you guys

217
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 2: given any thought to that? And then the kind of

218
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 2: the vice president who's in charge of this reminded that

219
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 2: the potential changes will be implemented next season, so teams

220
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 2: would have sometimes to change strategies like.

221
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,360
Speaker 3: Meaning like right now. Okay.

222
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 2: Then the vice president asked Adam Silver if he wanted

223
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 2: to weigh in, and then.

224
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 3: Adam Silver walked in.

225
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:58,439
Speaker 2: The call is said, you should assume for next season

226
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 2: you're only in, said will be to win games.

227
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,080
Speaker 3: Boom.

228
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 5: First of all, you can absolutely be an actor. Look

229
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 5: at you, Look at you. You give this man a script,

230
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 5: and let's see what we can.

231
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 6: Get out of this.

232
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:12,960
Speaker 3: First of all, dramatic reading.

233
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:17,200
Speaker 4: I'm into it. I'm into it. Uh yeah, yeah.

234
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,719
Speaker 2: There was a notable shift in Silver's tone and demeanor,

235
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 2: saying he sounded more like Stern than Silver. And I

236
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:28,320
Speaker 2: don't mean Stern like angry. He sounded more like David Stern.

237
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 5: You know he wishes.

238
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 4: First of all, First of all, you wish that That's

239
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,679
Speaker 4: what people thought of when they looked at so Monson.

240
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:34,319
Speaker 3: Here's the thing.

241
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 2: The exchange between Silver and Marks, and a few other

242
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 2: moments highlight the tension between teams executives trying to strategize

243
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 2: rebuilds and Silver administration saying we are not accepting tanking.

244
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 2: Do you think it is fair to change the rule?

245
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,839
Speaker 2: Like like saw Marks? Who side are you on in

246
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 2: this back?

247
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 4: It's a tough one because I think the tinking is ridiculous.

248
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 4: And you saw the Utah Jazz this year. Do it

249
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 4: within the rules, you know what I'm saying. Pulling the

250
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 4: stars in the fourth quarter, it's like they're playing, but

251
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 4: we're just gonna pull them in the fourth quarter. There's

252
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 4: there's always gonna be some sort of loophole. But it

253
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 4: does seem like the tanking this season, maybe even the

254
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 4: last couple of seasons, is so obvious in comparison to

255
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:21,319
Speaker 4: other seasons. It's so damn obvious that you are tanking

256
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 4: and something has to be done. Is it fair? No,

257
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 4: but I'm sorry, life is not fair. I don't think

258
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 4: this is gonna necessarily work. But I do have to

259
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 4: give Adam Silver and the League some sort of credit

260
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 4: for trying to write the ship as quickly as possible.

261
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 4: I have to give them some credit. I don't know

262
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 4: if it's gonna work, though, I feel like you're always

263
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 4: gonna find a way to tank when you want. There's

264
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 4: a couple of things that are mentioned with details on, like,

265
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 4: you know, the lottery would be extended to include all

266
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,199
Speaker 4: playing teams. I think that's a great idea.

267
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 3: Oh no, it should.

268
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 4: Just because you're in a play in doesn't mean that

269
00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 4: you're much better than Seeds twelve, eleven, and ten.

270
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 2: Let's have two conversations here, Okay, because I don't I

271
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 2: we have space for that. Okay, how to fix tanking

272
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 2: is one different conversation. In my opinion, then, is it

273
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:18,440
Speaker 2: fair to implement changes mid season while teams.

274
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 3: Are like, I don't.

275
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 5: I don't like it might not be fair, but that sucks, right?

276
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 3: Do you see what I'm saying?

277
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 2: Like it shoved me those two separate conversations in my opinion,

278
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,680
Speaker 2: because like, right now, this is what I think is

279
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:31,200
Speaker 2: funny about this. They're saying that we did this under

280
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 2: the previously accepted methods, Right, that's Sean Markshonov argument, previo

281
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 2: accepted practice that has benefit other teams.

282
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 5: Absolutely, well, we are not.

283
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:42,200
Speaker 3: That's not what we're seeing.

284
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 2: We're seeing teams like getting fine for sitting players like initially, right,

285
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:50,439
Speaker 2: we're seeing people they're not. He's basically saying, like, dude, Okay,

286
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 2: I know that going five over is against the law,

287
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 2: but what when did it become a seven hundred dollars

288
00:12:58,040 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 2: fine to go five over?

289
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 4: Yeah?

290
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 2: And it's like guess what yesterday? You know what I'm

291
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 2: saying it's just a new law. The seatbelt law may

292
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 2: not be that bad important anymore, but this one, this

293
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 2: one is so you better go out there and stay

294
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 2: five to one to do something else. But it ain't

295
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 2: gonna be go five over. That's what Adam Silver saying.

296
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 2: And the rules are the rules. And that's like Oklahoma

297
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 2: City built their team one way. All of a sudden,

298
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 2: luxury tax rules happen.

299
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 3: Boom, you gotta shift.

300
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 2: Golden State built their team one way. Luxury tax happens,

301
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 2: you gotta shift. Right, those salary salary cap increase happens,

302
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 2: you gotta shift.

303
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 3: The rules of engagement have changed, my friend, It's true.

304
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 4: And the reason I brought this one up is because

305
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 4: this one, if it happened this season, it doesn't bother

306
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,080
Speaker 4: me like this to me. That's why I brought that

307
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 4: particular one up. But you're one hundred percent right. It

308
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 4: is two very separate conversations. I don't know if I'm

309
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:49,959
Speaker 4: bothered by it. The point is, like, I don't think

310
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 4: I'm bothered by it's it's so bad. The product is

311
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 4: so unwatchable in so many different ways that you have

312
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 4: to do something. Is it fair? It's really not. What

313
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 4: are you gonna do as you just said, everybody has

314
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 4: had to pivot.

315
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 5: Every year there's a pivot.

316
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 4: Is it fair that it's going to feel mid season pivot?

317
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 3: Well so, but mid season mid again?

318
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 4: You canna feel mid season.

319
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 2: The thing that I just find to be who is

320
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 2: determining that the nets are in year two of this

321
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 2: strategic rebuild.

322
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 5: I just like the word strategic.

323
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 4: Strategic that's the word here, because he's.

324
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 5: Like, what are you talking about.

325
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 4: We've been doing this legally.

326
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 2: I like how that so other teams are haphazardly correct exactly.

327
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 2: That's other teams are just rebuilding at the fly and said,

328
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 2: you know what, I want three pieces of wood and

329
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 2: two nails.

330
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 3: That's how. And we're rebuilding. There's figuring out.

331
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 2: As we go along, because that's honestly, the truth is

332
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 2: a lot of them are.

333
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 3: Uh.

334
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 2: We're talking about more about that at the bottom of

335
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 2: the hour. We're talking about some of the implementations that

336
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 2: could be influenced, and we'll actually ask mart Medina if

337
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 2: he thinks it's fair to implement these.

338
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 3: Rules as they are happening. I have a take that

339
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 3: maybe take up the.

340
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 2: Whole dog on thing, just because I feel like we're

341
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 2: missing the point with this.

342
00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.

343
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 2: If you have the measles, I'm not giving you a Kleenex.

344
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 2: It might help, but it's not going to solve the problem.

345
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 2: I think that we're missing the forest for the trees

346
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 2: were taking and that's a big one. But one group

347
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 2: of people in the Midwest is missing the force for

348
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 2: the trees in a very very big way. And it's

349
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 2: gonna piss people off because a lot of free are

350
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 2: gonna get cut down for this, I can only imagine,

351
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 2: and that's gonna piss me out. Tree huggers are across

352
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 2: the board, but just the general people are gonna be

353
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 2: not happy if this happens. And it is better or not.

354
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 2: It's not going to but it better not. We'll get

380
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:46,560
Speaker 5: Don't get it twisted.

381

Speaker 3: It's just whatever verb you'd like.

382
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, tip off, curl off, puck drop, you know, whatever

383
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 2: it is.

384
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 3: I know they're gonna have Olympic bets.

385
00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 5: Sure, yep, yeah, absolutely, you.

386
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 3: Know they'll probably be on before the gold medal game.

387
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 4: You know, at least at one point at least someone

388
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:06,920
Speaker 4: will be watching, somebody will be awake.

389
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 2: So uh, Ian text me this week, our producer, what

390
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 2: am I missing with this Bears deal?

391
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 3: What am I missing here? Because he knows I get it,

392
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 3: because Ian's a Jets very like the Jets playing New Jersey.

393
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 3: Who cares? Why do I care? With it be theil

394
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 3: Chicago Bears?

395
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 2: I mean, I get it, But ultimately, Anci, I don't think,

396
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 2: first of all, I don't think it's going to happen

397
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,879
Speaker 2: that the Bears are going to move to Indiana. I

398
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 2: do not know how many people who can hear the

399
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 2: sound of my voice that have driven through Gary, Indiana.

400
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,920
Speaker 2: I'm telling you right now, it is not a place

401
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:46,480
Speaker 2: there are putting an NFL team.

402
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 3: That's just point blank period.

403
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:53,159
Speaker 2: I've never quite all the way been to Hammond, Indiana,

404
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 2: but I know the first if it's in northwest Indiana

405
00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:59,199
Speaker 2: is generally just probably not.

406
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,360
Speaker 3: It's not a boom in metropolis, all right.

407
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 2: Now, The Bears did buy this parcel of land in

408
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 2: Arlington Hearts Heights rather outside of Chicago, which is a

409
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:16,159
Speaker 2: Chicago suburb, which moving there would still feel a little

410
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 2: dirty because the Bear Soldier Fields right there in the

411
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 2: heart of the city, and it's like one of these

412
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 2: things that are like one of the things that make

413
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 2: Chicago feel like Chicago right, like is one of these

414
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 2: things that being there in that thing. It's a little

415
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 2: easier to stomach moving to Orleans and Heights because that's

416
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:37,960
Speaker 2: still a Chicago suburb. But moving to Indiana is nonsensical.

417
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,360
Speaker 2: And I don't even think that if I'm sitting in

418
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 2: Indiana today, I already pay for one Stadium and Lucas Oil,

419
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,640
Speaker 2: and I'm probably a Colts fan. Why do I want

420
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 2: to subsidize the Bear Stadium as well, just because it's

421
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 2: gonna be twenty minutes away from where they play Now,

422
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 2: I'm alright.

423
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,880
Speaker 4: I have no sentimental connection to Soldier Field or the Bear,

424
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:03,239
Speaker 4: and I hate this for them, Like I hope you're

425
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,200
Speaker 4: right that there's no way that they make this move,

426
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 4: because to me, it doesn't make sense, even though I

427
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 4: know what Ian as a as a Jets fan feels,

428
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 4: but I can tell you as a Glippers fan, moving

429
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 4: from Staple Center over to into a dome has been

430
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 4: the worst thing for me.

431
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 5: And I'm I'm in the same state, and I hate it.

432
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,719
Speaker 4: I can't imagine actually going to a different state. It

433
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 4: makes no sense to me. And like you said, I

434
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,920
Speaker 4: feel like Chicago one question.

435
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, because.

436
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:33,440
Speaker 2: It hasn't bothered me at all, But I just have

437
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:35,520
Speaker 2: to remember that I'm going to Englewood instead of Downtown.

438
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 2: Has it has the technology of into a dome made

439
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 2: it more negative because it is definitely taken away from

440
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,480
Speaker 2: my game day experience. Well, like I would so much

441
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,959
Speaker 2: rather just have a ticket and walk in and have

442
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,520
Speaker 2: my money and spend my money and into a dome.

443
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:54,920
Speaker 2: I have to like get a retina scan like it's

444
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 2: Rhinority report to go to the bathroom.

445
00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:00,880
Speaker 3: And it has made me want to go.

446
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 4: That has not been a de terrent for me. I

447
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 4: mean the very first time when it didn't work, it

448
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 4: was annoying.

449
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 5: But now I can just go in and it's not

450
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 5: an issue.

451
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 4: Yes, it seems like annoying all that, but that's not

452
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:14,399
Speaker 4: a to terran for me. What's the terran for me

453
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 4: is on a week day, if the game starts at seven,

454
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 4: I have to give myself at least two hours to

455
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 4: get there because of the traffic to get to Englewood.

456
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,560
Speaker 4: It is and I know getting to downtown. There's traffic,

457
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,119
Speaker 4: but it's not the same. It is not even sort

458
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 4: of and so that's what's annoying about it. I can't

459
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:34,639
Speaker 4: imagine actually losing Soldier Field to another state, you know,

460
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,679
Speaker 4: not Soldier Field, but you go. What I'm saying, losing.

461
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 9: That, losing the access in the cards that they would

462
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,680
Speaker 9: even be able to stay at Soldier Field though, because

463
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 9: like my understandings, they're moving regardless.

464
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:45,919
Speaker 3: But this, but this is why this is an issue.

465
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,359
Speaker 2: It's like, your understanding is that they're moving regardless, and

466
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 2: your understanding is because it is formulated from what you

467
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,399
Speaker 2: have been I'm not saying what you've been told, but

468
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,479
Speaker 2: what has been the purported and how the way has

469
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 2: been reported. The Bears don't have to move. What the

470
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:02,360
Speaker 2: Bears could do is sell to somebody who can afford

471
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,399
Speaker 2: to renovate Soldier Field and keep them right in the

472
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 2: heart of Chicago. As much as Manzi's upset that her

473
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 2: thirty five minute drives her to a two hour drive,

474
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,440
Speaker 2: what nobody can really be upset about us who paid

475
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,479
Speaker 2: free into it through right. And as much as you

476
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 2: may be annoyed that you're not going from the LA

477
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 2: Coliseum to Sofi Stadium.

478
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 3: There nobody is debating.

479
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 2: Stan Kronke went and back his back pocket, pulled out

480
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,480
Speaker 2: the black card and said, bow, here you go. I'm

481
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 2: building this thing, right And if they know they came,

482
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 2: that's what the Bears, if they could really stand on

483
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:41,640
Speaker 2: their wallet, would do. But they can't and they don't

484
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,639
Speaker 2: want to. And instead of being in every other And

485
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 2: this is why sports are the most socialist thing that

486
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 2: we really got going as really popular is because any

487
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 2: other business could they could fail, right, Like there's you

488
00:21:56,320 --> 00:22:00,440
Speaker 2: could lose the idea like the Bears should be able

489
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,879
Speaker 2: to be for sales, somebody's able to buy them and

490
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 2: say no, I want to keep the public trust in

491
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 2: this area, right because ultimately, like the idea, if you

492
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:13,159
Speaker 2: can't afford to finance, if you can't afford what it

493
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 2: costs to own a team, which is at today's day

494
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 2: and age financing her own stadium, it didn't used to

495
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 2: be like that when it was in the I remember

496
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,680
Speaker 2: when New Warlds were trying to get a basketball team.

497
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,600
Speaker 2: One of the reasons why it was a big argument

498
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 2: and I learned this as a little kid who wanted

499
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 2: to go to basketball games.

500
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 3: The city does not want to pay for it right.

501
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 2: The city didn't want to pay for it, and then

502
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,720
Speaker 2: beent the Benson's who owned the Hornets, you know, ended

503
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 2: up who also owned the Saints. There's a lot of

504
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:42,359
Speaker 2: maneuvering to get that deal done right the city and

505
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:45,119
Speaker 2: so Chicago says, you know, we would rather fix our streets,

506
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,880
Speaker 2: our schools are slow removal. You pick it, you nate

507
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 2: it as opposed to financing a new stadium for you,

508
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:55,960
Speaker 2: you billionaire owner. So, but they're not billionaires enough to

509
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 2: have able to you know, make money hand over fists

510
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:01,359
Speaker 2: and build a new stadium, which is why everybody's like

511
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 2: upset at them for moving regardless, because if you can't

512
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 2: afford it, you usould sell it. Is basically my opinion

513
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 2: and my understanding of the situation.

514
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you're on to it because you're seeing

515
00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:17,640
Speaker 4: it happen everywhere. You're seeing it happen. If nowadays it's

516
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:20,119
Speaker 4: very expensive to have a team, It's not like it

517
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 4: used to be. It's different now most teams are being owned,

518
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:27,439
Speaker 4: not by families anymore. It's a bunch of people together

519
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 4: putting their money together.

520
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:30,119
Speaker 3: It's different.

521
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,920
Speaker 9: I just feel like it's two different debates almost where

522
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,200
Speaker 9: it's like, do you think they should leave Soldier Field

523
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,120
Speaker 9: at all? Because I feel like we can all sit

524
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 9: here in agreement where if it really does the way

525
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 9: you explain to Martin, if it just comes down to

526
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:46,159
Speaker 9: a billionaire owner opening their wallet and spending, then yeah,

527
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:47,720
Speaker 9: like that that's how it should be. But if they're

528
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 9: going to be leaving regardless here, which is kind of

529
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:51,679
Speaker 9: the I mean again, but that's the way it's being reported.

530
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 3: Right, here's the thing.

531
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:55,439
Speaker 2: You want to take the rams from Saint Louis to

532
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 2: La all right, you show me.

533
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 3: I can see that people are not going right.

534
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,680
Speaker 2: I can see the empty seats, and as much as

535
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:04,639
Speaker 2: a small market defender as I am from Louisiana, I

536
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,879
Speaker 2: don't love it, but I understand it. I watched I

537
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 2: watched a playoff game in Chicago where there was people

538
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,119
Speaker 2: who couldn't open a Coca Cola but before it exploded

539
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 2: out of it.

540
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 3: And it's negative.

541
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 2: It's people's nose is freezing off and the thing is

542
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 2: sold out. We got to get to Steve. Let's get

543
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,399
Speaker 2: because we've got Mark Medina coming up. I'm sorry, we

544
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 2: want to keep talking about it. We can't, but let's

545
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 2: get to Steve's, so we get to Mark Medina because

546
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:27,360
Speaker 2: college basketball is at full.

547
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,359
Speaker 10: Swaysty Indeed it is. And by the way I looked

548
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:33,120
Speaker 10: it up, Soldier Field to Hammond, Indiana twenty seven miles.

549
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 10: Soldier Field to the other proposed place, Arlington Heights to

550
00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:40,880
Speaker 10: stay in state for the Bears is actually thirty miles longer.

551
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 10: And there are many many NFL teams that don't play

552
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,320
Speaker 10: in the city. Well, New York Jets and Giants don't

553
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 10: even play in the state of New York. You mentioned

554
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 10: the superb Stadium that's in Inglewood where the Rams will

555
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,399
Speaker 10: be their place is going to be hosting the Super

556
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 10: Bowl again in a year. Technically that's not in Los

557
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 10: Angeles because Inglewood has its own mayor and its own

558
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 10: police force and so forth. Jerry Jones has four yeah,

559
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 10: and he absolutely the accent, and ironically he had quite

560
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 10: a bit to do with Los Angeles getting the And

561
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 10: remember the last decade that the La Rams were technically

562
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,640
Speaker 10: the La Rams before moving to Saint Louis, they didn't

563
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,359
Speaker 10: play in Los Angeles. They were in Orange County and

564
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,159
Speaker 10: an even further distance. As people found out during the

565
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 10: Super Bowl, the forty nine Ers stadium was hosting the

566
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:30,719
Speaker 10: Super Bowl. San Francisco doesn't play anywhere near San Francisco.

567
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 10: Buffalo doesn't play in Buffalo. Dallas Cowboys don't play in Dallas.

568
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 10: And by the way, you mentioned the let's say state

569
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,679
Speaker 10: of Gary, Indiana and the environs. If you've driven to

570
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:45,560
Speaker 10: Michael Jackson, that's right, the Jackson five, all of them

571
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 10: from there.

572
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 3: Grew up there.

573
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 6: Yes, as a group.

574
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 10: As for the Inglewood Stadium, which is a jewel and

575
00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:57,400
Speaker 10: as they say, we'll have another Super Bowl in a year,

576
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,720
Speaker 10: you do have to drive through the ump of a city,

577
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:03,880
Speaker 10: which is most of Inglewood, California, before you come upon

578
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 10: this sensational I mean sensational stadium that's also going to

579
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 10: be hosting a lot of the World Cup games this summer.

580
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 10: But it's the billionaire owner that you referenced. He with

581
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 10: his own money, paid off Saint Louis, paid off the

582
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 10: cost overruns and developed not only this stadium, but NFL

583
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 10: Network building is next door and all the other things

584
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 10: they've developed on the block, which as it turns out,

585
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,879
Speaker 10: is across the street from the Clippers Arena in Englewood

586
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 10: that you reference, which will be hosting Olympic basketball at

587

588
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:39,679

589
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:43,879

Speaker 10: men's cross country skiing event. He won his sixth gold today,

591
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,280

592
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 10: in a single Winter Games. And curling, Canada's men took

593
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,200

627
00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 10: wins back to you.

628
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 5: Thanks, like they made it out, just like they scripted it.

629
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 2: Martin Wise wantsa Bolano's in here for a quick Let's

630
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:04,479
Speaker 2: have a quick conversation.

631
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 3: With Mark Medena.

632
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 2: As the news of Adam Silver's dropped, the Mike moment

633
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:14,360
Speaker 2: on the zoom call heard through North America. According to

634
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 2: the Athletic NBA general managers shaking in their boots, especially

635
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,960
Speaker 2: Sean marks Mark, is it fair to change the rules

636
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 2: midway through.

637
00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 3: Year two of a strategic rebuild?

638
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 11: You tell me, yeah, I think it's a fair question

639
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 11: to ask because I don't have a problem with them

640
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,560
Speaker 11: changing the rules. So you have to give teams time

641
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 11: to change because it's not just about next season. These

642
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:39,760
Speaker 11: front offices are charting out things years in advance. So

643
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 11: to be clear, guys, nothing's going and to effect this season.

644
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 11: It's about next season. I think that's where the angs

645
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 11: that Sean Marx was having he was under the impression

646
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,640
Speaker 11: when they're on the conference call that this was about

647
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 11: making changes effective immediately, and he's incredulous because the season's

648
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 11: already going on with only two months left.

649
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,520
Speaker 5: When did this become a conversation?

650
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 2: Mark?

651
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 3: Do you know?

652
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 4: Because like I feel like over the last few years,

653
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 4: the tanking just seems.

654
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 5: A little bit more obvious.

655
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,320
Speaker 4: So was this something that had been discussed in previous

656
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 4: years but table to the side, and now they brought

657
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:18,320
Speaker 4: it back or was this sudden?

658
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 11: I think it's both. So they've been talking about this

659
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 11: for a while and they've always made tweaks. But the

660
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 11: sudden part is the overt tanking with the Jazz and

661
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 11: the Indiana Pacers resting their player before the All Star break.

662
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:38,040
Speaker 11: I think that we can't technically prove it, but I

663
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:41,960
Speaker 11: do have suspicions that the gambling component has something to

664
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 11: do with it, because people are putting prop bets on

665
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 11: player performances. If they're all of a sudden not available

666
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 11: even when healthy, that causes a lot of issues. But

667
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 11: to give a quick history lesson, you know, the lottery

668
00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 11: itself was created to prevent overt tanking for worse teams

669
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 11: because he used to decide by a coin flip. So

670
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,520
Speaker 11: the whole idea with lottery odds was that it didn't

671
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 11: guarantee you a draft pick, it just gave you favorable odds.

672
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 11: And they've always tweaked the odds this last decade, the

673
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 11: playing tournament. That's partly why they created that in the

674
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 11: first place. That gives teams an extra incentive to give

675
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:20,640
Speaker 11: a you know what at the end of the season

676
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:24,440
Speaker 11: that may not be playoff contenders. So they've always been

677
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 11: trying to address improve it, reduce the tanking. But this

678
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,720
Speaker 11: turned on its hands still because of just how obvious

679
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 11: it is, and I also think because of the gambling.

680
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 3: Come home Mark.

681
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 2: Okay, so everybody says they want to reduce the tanking,

682
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 2: change the tanking, but then everybody on the other side

683
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 2: will be, well, the best way to be the girly

684
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 2: goodness to get the best player in the draft.

685
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 3: Okay, understandable.

686
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you also the number one overall pick could

687
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,440
Speaker 2: be Victor Will It could be two type of international players,

688
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 2: Victor Webdama, or it could be Anthony Bennett. Right, some

689
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 2: of these are not going to be franchised changing players.

690
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:02,680
Speaker 2: Why is it to me. I don't understand this about

691
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 2: what's going on about all of this, Like everything you

692
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 2: just said, I hear you, and I agree with it.

693
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:10,800
Speaker 2: Everything the commissioner's talking about, like you're you're gonna have

694
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 2: to win games next year, Like there is some validity

695
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,240
Speaker 2: to the idea that we're gonna take a step back

696
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 2: and evaluate our roster and see where we're at and

697
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:24,280
Speaker 2: really shoot for next season. However, the issue that I

698
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 2: find with tanking that nobody seems to want to address

699
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 2: is the only way to get better in the NBA

700
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 2: is to get hit in the draft, because even if

701
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 2: you have a high pick, you still suck if you

702
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,400
Speaker 2: take the wrong guy. So like, there's no way to

703
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 2: build outside of your handful of Indiana where maybe you

704
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 2: can make a move and a move and a move

705
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 2: and a move and make one NBA Finals run. And

706
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 2: that's that burden.

707
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:50,560
Speaker 11: Preach, preach, preach. I mean, look, the Oklahoma City Thunder

708
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 11: are the defending champions because they fell through the draft. Yes,

709
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 11: they got shake Gildess Alexander in this great trade. Uh,

710
00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 11: but they traded or they drafted really well, Chet Holmer

711
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 11: and Jalen Williams. You go down the list of all

712
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 11: the other guys, Cason Wallace, they've drafted well. The San

713
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 11: Antonio Spurs, they're suddenly back being the Spurs of old

714
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:15,880
Speaker 11: because they got Victor Wamanyama generational talent. So, you know,

715
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 11: it's always about watch what they do, not what they say.

716
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 11: The NBA never says they want teams to intentionally lose,

717
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,360
Speaker 11: but it's all about how they create the rules that

718
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 11: if a team wants to rebuild, they have to make

719
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 11: a decision that being mediocrity is not the pathway toward

720
00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 11: suddenly becoming a contender. You're either going to tank to

721
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 11: get a really good draft pick, or tank to get

722
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:42,640
Speaker 11: draft cap space to make a free agency signing, or

723
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 11: a mix of both. And that's that. So I'm very

724
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:50,040
Speaker 11: much with you that the NBA, they change the goalposts,

725
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,800
Speaker 11: they change the rules all the time, and teams have

726
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 11: become frustrated. Here's another thing, the second apron concerns. There's

727
00:33:57,880 --> 00:33:59,720
Speaker 11: a lot of been There's a lot of teams that

728
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:02,840
Speaker 11: have been frustrated that they've drafted well and then all

729
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 11: of a sudden, when they're eligible for extensions, they're going

730
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,719
Speaker 11: to get penalized for attaining those players. There's not a

731
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 11: different They haven't differentiated between high spending teams that are

732
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:15,839
Speaker 11: going after price free agents versus high spending teams are

733
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 11: trying to keep their own players. So I'm with you again,

734
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:22,560
Speaker 11: Martin that the NBA has spoken out of both sides

735
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,520
Speaker 11: of their mouth on this issue and many other issues,

736
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,320
Speaker 11: and that's the reason why there's a lot of frustration

737
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:29,359
Speaker 11: around the league about it.

738
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:30,040
Speaker 3: Mark.

739
00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:31,960
Speaker 4: I know we're up against the clock here, but it

740
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 4: just news just broke that Dylan Brooks broke his hand

741
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,359
Speaker 4: and then also Devin Booker is still injured. Can the

742
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 4: Sun survive these two injuries and stay in right now?

743
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,000
Speaker 4: They're in the seven seed? Can they survive these two

744
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:45,879
Speaker 4: injuries right now?

745
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 11: Well, mom, FEVU really quick. I'm doubtful because it starts

746
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,279
Speaker 11: with Devin Booker. If he is still healthy, then all

747
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:56,560
Speaker 11: things are possible because he's a great leader, great complete player.

748
00:34:56,640 --> 00:35:00,640
Speaker 11: But you're losing to her best players, so to compete

749
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 11: they're they're very well coached or not. It's great, but yeah,

750
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:06,040
Speaker 11: I think that they'll fall in the standings. You know what,

751
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,680
Speaker 11: this is gonna help your clippers exactly have to court

752
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:11,720
Speaker 11: advantage in the playing all right.

753
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:13,879
Speaker 2: I'll say this, we know what they won't be doing,

754
00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:16,479
Speaker 2: and they won't be tanking, says matt Ishbria. I heard

755
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:18,839
Speaker 2: it first from him a couple of days ago. Maybe

756
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,440
Speaker 2: the stance will change. Mark Medina, thanks for joining us,

Speaker 3: Let's play Sports Court.

765
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 4: The defense is wrong Sports Sports Court.

766
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:49,799
Speaker 6: It's that time of the week.

767
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 3: Guys.

768
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:51,279
Speaker 6: We're back in the sports court.

769
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 9: You guys are the jury and I am going to

770
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,000
Speaker 9: present a few cases. Do you guys hear from people

771
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:57,680
Speaker 9: from around the world of sports, and you're gonna tell

772
00:35:57,719 --> 00:35:59,800
Speaker 9: me whether they are guilty or not guilty?

773
00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:02,840
Speaker 6: You sports sport ready? W Yes's okay?

774
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 9: First up, Metal World Peace stands accused. So Kansas State

775
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,759
Speaker 9: fired their head basketball coach Jerome Tang earlier this week,

776
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 9: and none other than Metal World Peace aka Ron Artest

777
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:15,640
Speaker 9: has tried to throw his name into the ring to

778
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:19,799
Speaker 9: be his replacement. The general public's response has been that

779
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,560
Speaker 9: coach Meta doesn't really seem to have much coaching experience

780
00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:24,399
Speaker 9: at all. He spent time as a player development coach

781
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,600
Speaker 9: in the G League after retiring, and he appears to

782
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:29,919
Speaker 9: currently be an assistant women's basketball coach at Cal State LA.

783
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 9: So it's not nothing in terms of experience. What do

784
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:34,800
Speaker 9: you guys think, Metal World Peace guilty or not guilty?

785
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:36,160
Speaker 3: I'm going not guilty.

786
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,280
Speaker 11: These allegations are false.

787
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, There's been plenty of coaches that have walked in

788
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,879
Speaker 2: with way less NBA or any basketball experience into these

789
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:47,800
Speaker 2: types of situations. And honestly, I've met Metalworld Piece a

790
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 2: few times and I think he's got a bad rap.

791
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:51,440
Speaker 2: I stand with go ahead, buddy, Do you think I

792
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:52,360
Speaker 2: hope he gets shot?

793
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 5: Not guilty.

794
00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:59,239
Speaker 4: I'm innocent and we hope he And that's funny you said,

795
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 4: I've never met him, but I also feel like he

796
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,080
Speaker 4: is a bad rap. I also think that there's a

797
00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:05,600
Speaker 4: lot of value that comes from the experience he had

798
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,440
Speaker 4: as a Laker playing against those people around him. That

799
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:11,160
Speaker 4: that's like, why can't he be a coach? That's ridiculous.

800
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:14,080
Speaker 9: Also worth noting he threw his his name into the

801
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 9: ring for the Knicks head coaching search last this season.

802
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:17,680
Speaker 6: I know it's just shoot your shot.

803
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 2: Why Jason Kidd walked off the basketball court to a

804
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:21,399
Speaker 2: head coaching job.

805
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 3: I'm not saying they're the same.

806
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,440
Speaker 9: Person, but worst they can say is no, and they

807
00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:26,960
Speaker 9: probably will, but that's the worst they can say.

808
00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:29,240
Speaker 6: Next up, Floyd Mayweather stands accused.

809
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,960
Speaker 9: So just days before his forty ninth birthday, boxing legend

810
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,600
Speaker 9: Floyd Mayweather Junior announced he plans to end his retirement

811
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:37,280
Speaker 9: and resume his pro boxing career. So already been scheduled

812
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:39,800
Speaker 9: to fight Mike Tyson this spring in an exhibition match,

813
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:42,400
Speaker 9: but he said that after that fight, he's officially unretiring.

814
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:44,760
Speaker 9: It's been almost nine years since his fight with Connor McGregor,

815
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:46,880
Speaker 9: which he won, putting him at fifty to ohero for

816
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 9: his career, so he's obviously going to be putting that

817
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:51,200
Speaker 9: in jeopardy here if he unretires, but could be lining

818
00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:54,920
Speaker 9: up for a Paqi hour match because Pakioo also unretired recently.

819
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 9: So what do you guys think Floyd Mayweather for unretiring here?

820
00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:58,640
Speaker 9: Guilty or not guilty?

821
00:37:58,840 --> 00:37:59,000
Speaker 8: Ya?

822
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 5: I mean guilty?

823
00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:03,360
Speaker 4: So you're broke.

824
00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:03,920
Speaker 5: I got it.

825
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:05,400
Speaker 4: If you go straight to jail, you don't have to

826
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,120
Speaker 4: use money the nicknames money.

827
00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:12,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, guilty, Yeah, put his ass in jail. Broke five broke,

828
00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 2: We ain't gone yeah, Blay Mayweather pledging number one?

829
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 9: All right, next one. Adam Silver stands accused. You guys

830
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:23,799
Speaker 9: have been touching on but after tons of complaints, the

831
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:25,920
Speaker 9: teams have been blatantly tanking over the past few weeks.

832
00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:28,840
Speaker 9: NBA Commissioner Adam Silver responded by issuing fines to the

833
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:31,920
Speaker 9: Jazz and Pacers a few days ago, though NBA insider

834
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,520
Speaker 9: Ben Golliver speculated that the fines may have been in

835
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:38,600
Speaker 9: part because Silver was getting pressured by angry gambling companies.

836
00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:41,759
Speaker 9: Now again, this is speculation, not reporting. I want to

837
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:43,640
Speaker 9: make that very clear here. That's not something that's been

838
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,360
Speaker 9: taking as fact. But what do you guys think, Adam Silver?

839
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:47,600
Speaker 9: Guilty or not guilty?

840
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:47,799
Speaker 12: Here?

841
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:53,359
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go not guilty because well, actually do it.

842
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 3: That's all right, don't worry about it. He's guilty of that.

843
00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,319
Speaker 2: But I think today, if what we read in this

844
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:03,040
Speaker 2: report is real, today, I'm here for it. But it's

845
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:06,360
Speaker 2: because it's a problem that somebody an executive in the

846
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,719
Speaker 2: room to the athletic quote, it said he was more

847
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:12,759
Speaker 2: like she sounded more like stern than silver, And that

848
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:16,799
Speaker 2: was like a very big complimentary phrase, Like by this

849
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 2: point nobody should be thinking about what the old commissioner

850
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:20,239
Speaker 2: would have been doing.

851
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,800
Speaker 3: He's been at this for like fifteen years.

852
00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 4: Straight to Jill book him, Yeah, listen, I don't again,

853
00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:29,879
Speaker 4: it's all speculation. But if you're gonna find someone, can

854
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,719
Speaker 4: we just really start finding all the flops and all

855
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 4: the foul baiting. Can you like use your power and

856
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:39,880
Speaker 4: stop that? Like I feel like Tanky doesn't even bother me.

857
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,479
Speaker 4: I'm more bothered by the flopping and the rage beating

858
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 4: that comes with the fouls, like stop stop, I don't

859
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 4: even care about the tanking.

860
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 2: Did you see the uh Kentucky head coach Mark Pope,

861
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,880
Speaker 2: I'm asking the question now to you, my end to

862
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,520
Speaker 2: you and MONSI Kentucky head coach Mark Pope and get

863
00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:00,239
Speaker 2: asked a question about journalism and was said, makes sure

864
00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 2: you're chasing after essentially the right type of clicks.

865
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:04,720
Speaker 3: Guilty or not guilty?

866
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:07,600
Speaker 9: I thought not guilty. I liked what he had to say.

867
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:09,160
Speaker 9: I know, I know the clip you're talking about. I

868
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 9: wish I'd rolled in the sound so we could play

869
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:12,719
Speaker 9: it for the listeners right now. But yeah, essentially just

870
00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 9: saying that there are people who go for clicks like

871
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:17,239
Speaker 9: you can get tons of You can get famous in

872
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:19,640
Speaker 9: this industry by getting tons of cheap clicks or by

873
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:21,719
Speaker 9: being actually genuinely really good at what you do, and

874
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:22,520
Speaker 9: you should be the latter.

875
00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:25,040
Speaker 3: What do you think what he said? But I just

876
00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:28,320
Speaker 3: didn't appreciate that. He's like, you get good clicks or

877
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,600
Speaker 3: bad clicks, buddy, No, you can't.

878
00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:34,120
Speaker 2: They're getting clicks if you do your job, it shouldn't

879
00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:34,719
Speaker 2: be matter there.

880
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:36,080
Speaker 3: The metric of getting.

881
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:38,319
Speaker 2: Clicks is one that I just disagree with. You know

882
00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:39,640
Speaker 2: what matters to me getting paid?

883
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:42,400
Speaker 3: How about that clicks get paid?

938
00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 2: two Iowa State. This is the worst loss for Bill

939
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:59,279
Speaker 2: self in his tenure. This is the worst loss for

940
00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:04,560
Speaker 2: Kansas in like fifty three years against an underraanked opponent.

941
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:06,280
Speaker 3: This is like the worst.

942
00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:10,359
Speaker 2: This is like, this is a moment for Kansas basketball,

943
00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:13,680
Speaker 2: like I referendum type of moment. Kansas does not lose

944
00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:16,319
Speaker 2: games like this at home. At this time of the year,

945
00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:20,360
Speaker 2: Darren Peterson has been in and out of the lineup.

946
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:23,680
Speaker 2: He played a significant minutes amount of minutes.

947
00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:25,239
Speaker 5: Today thirty two today.

948
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:28,399
Speaker 2: Thirty two, seventeen points right now. He left last game

949
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:32,799
Speaker 2: early in the second half. But Bill Shelf after the

950
00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:36,360
Speaker 2: game was kind of just talking postgame about the state

951
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:40,560
Speaker 2: of Kansas basketball and it's mercurial star.

952
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 3: Player finish games.

953
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:45,520
Speaker 8: The reasons why they say he hasn't finished games.

954
00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:46,560
Speaker 3: Is one of the falls.

955
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:50,480
Speaker 11: But you know, the bottom line is that there is

956
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:53,280
Speaker 11: there is a way to change the narrative.

957
00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:57,440
Speaker 12: Finish now if his body allows him to fantastic.

958
00:43:57,440 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 3: If it doesn't allow him to, then you know they'll

959
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:00,640
Speaker 3: say up and again.

960
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:01,040
Speaker 13: The next game.

961
00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:04,080
Speaker 12: But but but but that that that's the way to

962
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:05,320
Speaker 12: get people to quit talking.

963
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:07,399
Speaker 9: It's not me saying it's not.

964
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:13,520
Speaker 2: Fair, Manci Darren petersonsaga has kind of been a year

965
00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:14,200
Speaker 2: long thing.

966
00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:18,560
Speaker 4: What's your take, right, tell me as a vacation again

967
00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:24,360
Speaker 4: in college Land. My understanding is that this guy, just

968
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:26,640
Speaker 4: if he could have gone immediately to the NBA, he

969
00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:28,440
Speaker 4: would have. He's kind of just doing this because he

970
00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:30,760
Speaker 4: has to and he's doesn't.

971
00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 5: He's trying to protect his stock.

972
00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:33,960
Speaker 4: He doesn't, you know, I want to fall in the draft.

973
00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:36,600
Speaker 4: He doesn't want to get hurt, so he's not playing

974
00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:39,279
Speaker 4: as many minutes as maybe he should be. Am I

975
00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:40,040
Speaker 4: am I right about that?

976
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,759
Speaker 3: I mean that's some people's interpretation Bill is talking.

977
00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:48,640
Speaker 4: That's right the other But but what doesn't look good Martin.

978
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,560
Speaker 4: I hear what Bill self is saying. But what doesn't

979
00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:55,040
Speaker 4: look good is the video where he takes himself out

980
00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:58,080
Speaker 4: of the game. Who's in charge here? I'm just confused

981
00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:01,840
Speaker 4: by this dynamic. I'm confused by who's allowing this. I

982
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:03,760
Speaker 4: feel like this is bad advice. If I'm a GM,

983
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,200
Speaker 4: if I'm a coach and I'm watching this from the outside,

984
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:09,600
Speaker 4: it doesn't look good. How do I know what you're

985
00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:12,359
Speaker 4: capable of If you're not playing every minute, if you're

986
00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 4: not going out there with your team, there's something and

987
00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:17,439
Speaker 4: I don't like it. Maybe I need to be more

988
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:19,320
Speaker 4: informed on this situation.

989
00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:21,080
Speaker 5: But I don't like it.

990
00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:22,920
Speaker 4: I don't like any of it. I don't know who's

991
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,960
Speaker 4: winning in this case. Bill's self is not winning. Kansas

992
00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:28,840
Speaker 4: didn't win today, He's not winning. Who is winning in

993
00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:29,520
Speaker 4: this situation?

994
00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:31,319
Speaker 3: I actually think that.

995
00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:36,120
Speaker 2: I think when I'm diving further into it when I

996
00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:38,799
Speaker 2: look at Darren Peterson and you look at some of

997
00:45:38,840 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 2: the reporting around him, Like Bill self said, he's missing

998
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:46,880
Speaker 2: games and the best way to stop people from talking

999
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:49,399
Speaker 2: about why he's missing games is to finish them.

1000
00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:52,200
Speaker 3: I think that that's true. You know what I'm saying.

1001
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:55,479
Speaker 2: Just again, I go through these things line by line, right,

1002
00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:59,080
Speaker 2: I think that that's true. He says the reasons why

1003
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:03,280
Speaker 2: people say these games are completely not the reasons. Now

1004
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:07,279
Speaker 2: he's been doing this, He's been having this conversation every

1005
00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:14,000
Speaker 2: week since Marrow. I think that it really does seem

1006
00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:17,120
Speaker 2: to me that this is a kid who is having

1007
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:21,200
Speaker 2: really physical issues. Like there's some they're talking about. He's

1008
00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:26,560
Speaker 2: get ivs before get the days before games, and he's

1009
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:30,440
Speaker 2: having terrible cramps and hamstring issues and lower calf issues

1010
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:34,360
Speaker 2: and those A lot of those are like dehydration type

1011
00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:36,919
Speaker 2: of injuries, right, or like a lot of I'm not trying,

1012
00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:38,640
Speaker 2: I'm not a doctor, nor the state of highly and

1013
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:41,600
Speaker 2: express last night, but a lot of those that's what

1014
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:43,480
Speaker 2: generally seems to be the case.

1015
00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:43,640
Speaker 11: Right.

1016
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:45,760
Speaker 2: He seems like he's lost a bit of his explosiveness,

1017
00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:50,400
Speaker 2: and I just wonder if this is a kid, or

1018
00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:53,880
Speaker 2: seems like it could be a kid who is playing

1019
00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:56,799
Speaker 2: through something that he's never really had to try to

1020
00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:59,360
Speaker 2: play through before and is taking himself out like, hey,

1021
00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:02,360
Speaker 2: I've lost a bit, I've loft it here, I've lost

1022
00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:02,719
Speaker 2: it there.

1023
00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:04,359
Speaker 3: It kind of strikes me.

1024
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:10,879
Speaker 2: As like similar to Victim Winmanyama last year when.

1025
00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:12,960
Speaker 4: When we didn't know what was going on with him

1026
00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:15,960
Speaker 4: and he was kind of like not playing as many minutes,

1027
00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:18,160
Speaker 4: but we didn't know he's.

1028
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:19,600
Speaker 2: On a minute restriction. And then when he's out there,

1029
00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:22,080
Speaker 2: he looks weird. He looks weird, and then you hear

1030
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:25,319
Speaker 2: the reporting from the All Star Game this year when

1031
00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:29,160
Speaker 2: Victor Umgyama says, yeah, it was parts in times. Last year,

1032
00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:31,919
Speaker 2: I only felt like I had ten percent to five

1033
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:34,799
Speaker 2: percent of the proper blood flow in my left arm.

1034
00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:37,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, that'll probably impact the way you play basketball absolutely.

1035
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:39,719
Speaker 2: And you see he gets it figured out and now

1036
00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:42,600
Speaker 2: he's a dynamo. He's playing like he's full go. Right,

1037
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:45,799
Speaker 2: it's a full thing, full go. Darren Peterson to me,

1038
00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:48,680
Speaker 2: for whatever reason, seems to have an intense cramping problem

1039
00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:51,759
Speaker 2: because he starts these games out and he's got a

1040
00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:54,400
Speaker 2: lot of gas, and you can see seemingly go and

1041
00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:58,759
Speaker 2: kind of fall down the like just down the rim essentially, right,

1042
00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:02,680
Speaker 2: if he's up here above at the start of the game,

1043
00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:05,560
Speaker 2: by midway through the second half, he's below the rim,

1044
00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:08,799
Speaker 2: that just doing the same, like looking like the same

1045
00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:10,880
Speaker 2: kind of to the rim, but it's just explosive.

1046
00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:12,160
Speaker 3: This doesn't seem like it's there.

1047
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:15,920
Speaker 2: And I wonder if that is just a like not

1048
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:18,520
Speaker 2: a fatigue thing, and that he's not working hard enough,

1049
00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:21,239
Speaker 2: and that like something is wrong and he's not sure

1050
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:21,880
Speaker 2: what's wrong.

1051
00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:25,480
Speaker 4: If that's the case, I feel like then the conversation,

1052
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:30,200
Speaker 4: the story from the beginning could have already been controlled,

1053
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:34,120
Speaker 4: handled by Kansas, by his people, by Bill self. Differently,

1054
00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:36,160
Speaker 4: the reason this story has gone the way it's gone,

1055
00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:38,000
Speaker 4: it's because they're letting it so it's like, now you're

1056
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:41,120
Speaker 4: telling us that we've fabricated and made this up. But

1057
00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:43,120
Speaker 4: from the beginning you could have said, you know what,

1058
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:46,120
Speaker 4: he actually has been dealing with some stuff instead of

1059
00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:48,239
Speaker 4: letting it get this far away, because now it just

1060
00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:49,880
Speaker 4: seems like you're giving me some expenses.

1061
00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:53,560
Speaker 2: I think that they continue to say he's dealing with something,

1062
00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:56,640
Speaker 2: He's dealing with something, And when you have something that

1063
00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:01,640
Speaker 2: is not a well cause, all right, let's say let's

1064
00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:04,640
Speaker 2: say that Bill Soffs today said, yeah, Darren caught his

1065
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:08,839
Speaker 2: eighth cramp of the season, right then, Like I think

1066
00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:12,799
Speaker 2: that we would be in our fair place to say, well,

1067
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:14,799
Speaker 2: why don't you send him until he figures it out?

1068
00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:16,680
Speaker 3: Yes? Yeah, maybe it's.

1069
00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:19,040
Speaker 2: Something that is only presenting, you know what I'm saying

1070
00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:22,120
Speaker 2: in these moments, like it's something there. And again, the

1071
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:25,160
Speaker 2: reason why I'm willing to give, especially a college kid,

1072
00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:28,759
Speaker 2: this level of grace. He doesn't seem to me like

1073
00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:31,640
Speaker 2: he doesn't want to play because he keeps going back

1074
00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:33,240
Speaker 2: to play right.

1075
00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:35,080
Speaker 4: Like right, but today, I know, sorry to me to

1076
00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:36,800
Speaker 4: cut you off today. I know it's thirty two minutes,

1077
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:38,160
Speaker 4: but I feel like there's a lot where I've seen,

1078
00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:40,960
Speaker 4: like he played under twenty minutes and was so good,

1079
00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:42,320
Speaker 4: why didn't he go back out?

1080
00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:46,360
Speaker 3: Right? But again, what if what if at minute twenty five?

1081
00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:49,680
Speaker 2: Right, I'm not after whatever it is after twenty five

1082
00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:52,480
Speaker 2: and then they've practiced with him and they've seen all

1083
00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:55,680
Speaker 2: of like they've practiced two hour practice or practice, you

1084
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:58,560
Speaker 2: can see a dramatic shift in his ability to play

1085
00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:03,320
Speaker 2: after and so this would be my bigger thing for Kansas,

1086
00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:06,480
Speaker 2: And I get there's a level of protecting the kid too, right, right,

1087
00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:08,799
Speaker 2: so you gotta protect because he, yeh again is a

1088
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:11,239
Speaker 2: kid in your school and all this. So I think

1089
00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:13,360
Speaker 2: that they are coming from this level of protection, Like

1090
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 2: there's a level of if we if we run him

1091
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:18,759
Speaker 2: a thirty minute simulated game, we see the drop off,

1092
00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:21,560
Speaker 2: like he no longer looks like the guy who's the

1093
00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:24,239
Speaker 2: number one overall pick, and if we're trying to figure

1094
00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:27,160
Speaker 2: out how to break through this. But I just think

1095
00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:31,719
Speaker 2: that there could be something there because it feels like

1096
00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:33,480
Speaker 2: there's something I would I just put it like this,

1097
00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:37,840
Speaker 2: put a flag in it, or put a red marker

1098
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:40,960
Speaker 2: on it in your file cabinet, just if you hear

1099
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:43,200
Speaker 2: about it, Like and when he's going through combine work

1100
00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:46,680
Speaker 2: or something that he's got some type of you know,

1101
00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:49,280
Speaker 2: deep fame that you've.

1102
00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:52,080
Speaker 3: Never heard of that he has to take like eight.

1103
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:53,359
Speaker 2: Months off and all of a sudden, he takes eight

1104
00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:55,320
Speaker 2: months off and he can run and jump in for

1105
00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:56,799
Speaker 2: eight days at a time.

1106
00:50:57,600 --> 00:51:00,320
Speaker 4: It just seems for somebody that has been a under

1107
00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:07,400
Speaker 4: the spotlight microscope of basketball and going into being in

1108
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:09,440
Speaker 4: the NBA, a high draft pick, even if he stopped

1109
00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:11,520
Speaker 4: playing right now, that's my understanding of how good he is.

1110
00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:14,440
Speaker 4: Where is this information coming from? But does he not

1111
00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:15,760
Speaker 4: play high school full games?

1112
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:15,880
Speaker 13: No?

1113
00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:18,560
Speaker 2: So again, imagine, well, a high school full game is

1114
00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:22,800
Speaker 2: four ten minute quarters. It's a bit different than playing

1115
00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:25,480
Speaker 2: the twenty minute halves that you're playing in a college

1116
00:51:25,520 --> 00:51:28,000
Speaker 2: basketball game in terms of that breakdown, but also to

1117
00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:30,759
Speaker 2: N plus two level of competition, he's trying.

1118
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:32,880
Speaker 3: Way harder like we are talking about.

1119
00:51:33,120 --> 00:51:35,799
Speaker 2: Think about what she said though, if in fact, then

1120
00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:38,960
Speaker 2: he went in and he and aj Debanza will probably

1121
00:51:38,960 --> 00:51:41,560
Speaker 2: be the number two overall pick, or however they all

1122
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:44,360
Speaker 2: shakes out. Both of these guys won't be waiting long

1123
00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:47,600
Speaker 2: on draft night, regardless of where they're picked at. He

1124
00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:49,920
Speaker 2: went and clearly outplayed him in the time that like,

1125
00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:52,080
Speaker 2: in the game that his team won, he would not

1126
00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:55,080
Speaker 2: played him if he could just shut it down. Now,

1127
00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:57,759
Speaker 2: that's what I'm saying. That's why it seems like Natives

1128
00:51:57,840 --> 00:52:01,560
Speaker 2: all about protecting draft value and hecing draft talk. Then

1129
00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:04,799
Speaker 2: everybody who is invested in that would have been telling

1130
00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:07,920
Speaker 2: him you've already beaten the other best player in the class.

1131
00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:09,840
Speaker 3: You can shut it down out, You'll be good.

1132
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:13,280
Speaker 4: To go, but shutting it down completely would have also

1133
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:14,680
Speaker 4: its narrative approach.

1134
00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:18,680
Speaker 2: Shut it down, I mean, whatever is one of those tides. Look,

1135
00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:21,399
Speaker 2: if he keeps he could have asked out of one

1136
00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:24,520
Speaker 2: game and never have come back in again and nobody

1137
00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:25,680
Speaker 2: would have thought anything of it.

1138
00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:30,360
Speaker 4: I hear everything you're saying, and you're this all speculation.

1139
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:33,160
Speaker 4: But because of what we see in the NBA with

1140
00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:36,040
Speaker 4: this no playing back to backs, we're gonna do this.

1141
00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:39,040
Speaker 5: We're gonna insight. You see this signage target, right, So

1142
00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:39,680
Speaker 5: it's like, is that.

1143
00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:44,040
Speaker 4: What you're doing? Are you already going into the NBA

1144
00:52:44,680 --> 00:52:46,720
Speaker 4: worried about how much you're gonna play?

1145
00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:48,240
Speaker 5: That's not great.

1146
00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:50,880
Speaker 2: See, I just don't seem that to be the I

1147
00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:53,799
Speaker 2: can't find unless he is Ben Simmons who genuinely does

1148
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:57,360
Speaker 2: not enjoy like I got too many gifts to pass

1149
00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:01,200
Speaker 2: up on basketball, And from what I've read and heard,

1150
00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:06,279
Speaker 2: reported and seen, it doesn't that doesn't seem like the case, right.

1151
00:53:06,320 --> 00:53:08,000
Speaker 2: This is not a guy that has a ton of

1152
00:53:08,040 --> 00:53:11,120
Speaker 2: other like this is what he does, and it feels

1153
00:53:11,120 --> 00:53:13,960
Speaker 2: to me like a guy who is desperately trying to

1154
00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:16,319
Speaker 2: do what he does at a high level and his

1155
00:53:16,400 --> 00:53:20,080
Speaker 2: body is betraying him, which to me is a major

1156
00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:23,279
Speaker 2: red flag for the next level, right, one hundred percent

1157
00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:25,200
Speaker 2: next flag for the next level. But I am not

1158
00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:28,799
Speaker 2: questioning his want to to go, and I think there's

1159
00:53:28,800 --> 00:53:30,520
Speaker 2: some questioning of his want to to go.

1160
00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:32,160
Speaker 3: I'm questioning ability to go.

1161
00:53:32,320 --> 00:53:36,239
Speaker 9: Which of those would be a bigger red flag, one

1162
00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:37,560
Speaker 9: hundred percent ability to go.

1163
00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:40,160
Speaker 2: So I would much rather have the best player who

1164
00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:41,279
Speaker 2: wants to be there half the time.

1165
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:42,719
Speaker 3: We will figure it out.

1166
00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:46,720
Speaker 4: Yeah you Either way, though, there's red flags no matter

1167
00:53:46,719 --> 00:53:48,279
Speaker 4: how you look at it, which is a bad thing.

1168
00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:50,560
Speaker 4: And then we're all speculating because we don't know, and

1169
00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:53,520
Speaker 4: you're right, maybe maybe it is a situation where they're

1170
00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:56,400
Speaker 4: trying to protect him, But regardless, it seems like no

1171
00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:58,239
Speaker 4: matter what, we've got some flags to look at.

1172
00:53:58,480 --> 00:54:01,879
Speaker 2: Speaking of some flags, look at me, and I'm gonna

1173
00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:04,480
Speaker 2: call audible. We're gonna talk a little NFL at the

1174
00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:08,880
Speaker 2: bottom of the hour. But uh, speaking of guys playing

1175
00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:12,360
Speaker 2: half the time and calling it done, Moncey's got some

1176
00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:16,120
Speaker 2: plaining to do about one of her favorite teams, because

1177
00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:19,680
Speaker 2: I think if somebody else in Los Angeles was talking

1178
00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:23,320
Speaker 2: the way some another LA star was talking Moncey Bologos

1179
00:54:23,360 --> 00:54:27,400
Speaker 2: will grow eight feet tall, saying where's your competition, buddy?

1180
00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:29,480
Speaker 4: I feel like that comment was said by the other

1181
00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:30,239
Speaker 4: star in LA.

1182
00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:32,000
Speaker 3: We'll get to it just a minute.

1183
00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:36,279
Speaker 2: Martin Wize Mons Blagos coming to your Life from the

1184
00:54:36,360 --> 00:54:40,520
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio studios. Just spent the top of the

1185
00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:43,320
Speaker 2: hour talking about Darren Peterson and the guy's body betrayed

1186
00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:48,040
Speaker 2: him or maybe betraying him. That's how it feels to me.

1187
00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:51,200
Speaker 2: Hopefully he's able to figure it out, you know, But

1188
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:55,880
Speaker 2: like I saw certain guys Seth Curry had ankle issues

1189
00:54:55,920 --> 00:54:58,359
Speaker 2: early in his career, early in his college career, was.

1190
00:54:58,320 --> 00:55:01,839
Speaker 4: Able to And that's what's part of the problem here

1191
00:55:01,840 --> 00:55:02,600
Speaker 4: is we just don't know.

1192
00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:03,279
Speaker 3: I knew.

1193
00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:06,640
Speaker 2: We found out about Steph Grey's ankles during the draft process,

1194
00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:08,680
Speaker 2: do you know what I'm saying. It's like that's when

1195
00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:10,600
Speaker 2: when they're poking and prodding, but he.

1196
00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:12,880
Speaker 5: Didn't he have surgeries, Like it wasn't new information.

1197
00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:16,200
Speaker 2: But again, we're finding out all about this when we're getting.

1198
00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:19,440
Speaker 4: This shocking.

1199
00:55:19,560 --> 00:55:21,360
Speaker 2: Well, you know what we did know about Kawhi Leonard

1200
00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:23,000
Speaker 2: when he was the fifteenth pick in the draft of

1201
00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:29,600
Speaker 2: San Antonio The Medicals looked like a disaster, and as

1202
00:55:29,600 --> 00:55:33,640
Speaker 2: a result, Kawhi Leonard has been incredible at times in

1203
00:55:33,680 --> 00:55:36,239
Speaker 2: his career, and actually right now he's playing.

1204
00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:37,160
Speaker 3: Some really really good ball.

1205
00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:37,960
Speaker 4: He really is.

1206
00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:45,839
Speaker 2: But I'm old enough to remember when I was too old.

1207
00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:47,800
Speaker 2: I'm not even trying to be like most of the

1208
00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:50,400
Speaker 2: time I was started. I was told there was a

1209
00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:55,960
Speaker 2: legitimate conversation that Kawhi Leonard was a top of the NBA.

1210
00:55:56,840 --> 00:55:58,799
Speaker 3: Right if you were doing.

1211
00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:03,840
Speaker 2: Who has these gold, silver and bronze medal for NBA

1212
00:56:04,120 --> 00:56:06,000
Speaker 2: that day? Right if you were, there's just who's the

1213
00:56:06,080 --> 00:56:09,879
Speaker 2: gold medalist? Who's a silver medalist? Bronze medals NBA that day?

1214
00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:14,440
Speaker 2: Kawi was a consistent silver and bronze medalist, and right

1215
00:56:14,480 --> 00:56:17,560
Speaker 2: there with like Steph Curry, Kevin Durant and Lebron James,

1216
00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:19,960
Speaker 2: That's who was the top the leader board, right there

1217
00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:22,680
Speaker 2: was a consistent one. And then Kawhi goes to Toronto

1218
00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:26,719
Speaker 2: and gets that championship, which brings me to here. He

1219
00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:30,840
Speaker 2: has a decision. I remember it so vividly, right you,

1220
00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:33,440
Speaker 2: I'm sure you do too, but I remember where I

1221
00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:37,080
Speaker 2: was Zion Summer League game, He's dunked. There was an

1222
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:39,960
Speaker 2: earthquake in Vegas and Kawhi and Paul George got traded

1223
00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:43,239
Speaker 2: to the Los Angeles Clippers, and there it was one

1224
00:56:43,239 --> 00:56:45,359
Speaker 2: of those moments. You've been in Vegas enough to know.

1225
00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:50,080
Speaker 2: I'm sure there's been like a In fact, no, that

1226
00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:52,759
Speaker 2: was last you weren't that, But I'm sorry. But when

1227
00:56:52,800 --> 00:56:55,400
Speaker 2: you saw the most supercent Super Bowl, you when you

1228
00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:58,000
Speaker 2: saw the trade happen, right.

1229
00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:00,359
Speaker 3: And everybody, oh, did you see that? Did you see that? Well?

1230
00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:03,360
Speaker 2: The extra part about Vegas is there's like a feeling

1231
00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:06,080
Speaker 2: in the casino. You could feel the ship that the

1232
00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:08,120
Speaker 2: casinos like, should I go bet on the Clippers winning

1233
00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:09,919
Speaker 2: championship for the next six years in a row?

1234
00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:11,200
Speaker 3: Because that was a real big thing.

1235
00:57:11,320 --> 00:57:16,880
Speaker 2: Yes, And it has been not great thus far in

1236
00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:23,360
Speaker 2: terms of championship winning in Los Angeles thus far, which

1237
00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:28,120
Speaker 2: draws a parallel to Lebron James, who has one championship

1238
00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:32,720
Speaker 2: in LA but also really truly only I think the

1239
00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:35,680
Speaker 2: biggest crime of it is that of the Los Angeles

1240
00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:38,360
Speaker 2: Lebron era, there's only really been like two or three

1241
00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:42,520
Speaker 2: seasons where they were legitimate title contenders, right, Like you

1242
00:57:42,760 --> 00:57:44,520
Speaker 2: have to cross your eyes and pick at it and

1243
00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:45,080
Speaker 2: be like.

1244
00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:47,840
Speaker 3: Are they can they really you know what I mean?

1245
00:57:48,520 --> 00:57:50,560
Speaker 2: But it's like that there were a few years where

1246
00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:53,720
Speaker 2: like you know, obviously the year they won it clearly, right,

1247
00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:55,680
Speaker 2: but I'm talking about where they were like knocked out

1248
00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:57,920
Speaker 2: in the fire, like damn, that's that team really had

1249
00:57:57,960 --> 00:57:58,640
Speaker 2: a shot, right.

1250
00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:03,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's crushed for it. It's lam based it for it. Yeah,

1251
00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:07,640
Speaker 3: you know. Yeah, But Kawhi Leonard and I get it.

1252
00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:09,840
Speaker 3: He doesn't say much, so you think speaks softly. You

1253
00:58:09,880 --> 00:58:11,760
Speaker 3: hear more of it. You know, there's there's only a

1254
00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:12,840
Speaker 3: handful of quotes.

1255
00:58:13,480 --> 00:58:17,760
Speaker 2: Kawhi Leonard had this to say recently, do we have

1256
00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:18,680
Speaker 2: this sound thumbs up?

1257
00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:18,880
Speaker 3: Yes.

1258
00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:21,320
Speaker 2: Kawhi Leonard had this to say recently about the state

1259
00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:23,560
Speaker 2: of the Los Angeles Clippers of just.

1260
00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:26,439
Speaker 13: Developing over time. I mean, I think it's over now.

1261
00:58:26,960 --> 00:58:30,720
Speaker 13: It's just second half, like fourth of the season left.

1262
00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:34,240
Speaker 13: But you know, every day is a day to grow,

1263
00:58:35,120 --> 00:58:37,840
Speaker 13: a day to learn and get better. So you know,

1264
00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:39,840
Speaker 13: you just got to keep looking over time and see

1265
00:58:39,880 --> 00:58:42,720
Speaker 13: in two weeks if we getting better and you know,

1266
00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:43,840
Speaker 13: let's see what happens.

1267
00:58:43,840 --> 00:58:46,240
Speaker 2: From me that was asked, is your team going to

1268
00:58:46,320 --> 00:58:50,880
Speaker 2: be competing contender? A contender and he said, well, it's over.

1269
00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:52,560
Speaker 3: Now, we'll keep trying.

1270
00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:54,400
Speaker 2: We'll see what happened up to two weeks, but it's over,

1271
00:58:55,600 --> 00:58:58,880
Speaker 2: like you preface it with it's over, like if you

1272
00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:02,040
Speaker 2: are talking to your magnificant other and you say it's over.

1273
00:59:02,120 --> 00:59:04,600
Speaker 2: But we'll see how it goes after two weeks. You

1274
00:59:04,640 --> 00:59:08,800
Speaker 2: could have stopped after it's over. And this is just

1275
00:59:08,920 --> 00:59:10,200
Speaker 2: I don't know if it was the All Star Bret,

1276
00:59:10,240 --> 00:59:11,520
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's just me, kind of like

1277
00:59:11,520 --> 00:59:13,560
Speaker 2: in a Mardi Gras Hayes, they're like, am I the

1278
00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:17,720
Speaker 2: only one that heard this happen? Because I felt I

1279
00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:21,600
Speaker 2: couldn't hear much A commentary about the fact that Kawhi

1280
00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:22,920
Speaker 2: Leonard said, you know, oh.

1281
00:59:22,800 --> 00:59:25,040
Speaker 3: Do you know what they trained James Harden? We have

1282
00:59:25,080 --> 00:59:27,520
Speaker 3: to quit now, all right? All right?

1283
00:59:28,160 --> 00:59:32,640
Speaker 4: So Kawhi Leonard has always been very literal with his answers, right.

1284
00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:35,600
Speaker 5: I feel like there's one really great one where.

1285
00:59:35,360 --> 00:59:38,720
Speaker 4: He was asked after a game, Hey, how the guy's feeling,

1286
00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:40,240
Speaker 4: and he literally said, I don't know, I'm not in

1287
00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:44,200
Speaker 4: the locker room. Like he is just a literal answerer.

1288
00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:49,840
Speaker 4: In this situation, he's answering the most literal and logical way,

1289
00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:54,320
Speaker 4: this team was six and twenty one. Martin, what team

1290
00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:58,280
Speaker 4: that started six and twenty one could consider themselves true contenders?

1291
00:59:58,600 --> 00:59:59,800
Speaker 5: That would be stupid.

1292
01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:02,440
Speaker 4: If he said, what you're talking about, of course we're contenders.

1293
01:00:02,440 --> 01:00:04,400
Speaker 4: We're gonna go take down the Spurs and Thunder, then

1294
01:00:04,440 --> 01:00:06,800
Speaker 4: he would have been crushed for saying that. He was

1295
01:00:06,880 --> 01:00:08,960
Speaker 4: just being so literal in the moment where he's like,

1296
01:00:09,160 --> 01:00:11,600
Speaker 4: we're at the because the All Star Break isn't actually

1297
01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:14,120
Speaker 4: half of the season. We're into like the third hitting

1298
01:00:14,160 --> 01:00:16,320
Speaker 4: the fourth part of the season. So he's like, we

1299
01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:20,280
Speaker 4: can't jump into contenders. We're trying to stay aflow and

1300
01:00:20,440 --> 01:00:24,000
Speaker 4: maybe maybe get a seventh seed, get a sixth seed.

1301
01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:27,880
Speaker 4: I think his answer was logical and it's realistic.

1302
01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:29,760
Speaker 5: The Clippers are not contenders.

1303
01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:32,240
Speaker 4: They are not They're not the Thunder, they're not the Spurs,

1304
01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:34,240
Speaker 4: they're not the Pistons.

1305
01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:36,440
Speaker 5: I don't even know if they would beat the Nickson

1306
01:00:36,480 --> 01:00:37,360
Speaker 5: a seven game series.

1307
01:00:37,400 --> 01:00:41,280
Speaker 4: Could the Clippers beat one these teams in one game? Yes,

1308
01:00:41,320 --> 01:00:44,880
Speaker 4: they've literally their stretch run has been incredible. You get

1309
01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:47,720
Speaker 4: to the postseason where it's a seven game series, where

1310
01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:51,400
Speaker 4: the questions surrounding Kawhi's health are real. I don't think

1311
01:00:51,400 --> 01:00:55,120
Speaker 4: he said anything wrong. He just kept it too realistic

1312
01:00:55,160 --> 01:00:56,160
Speaker 4: for some people.

1313
01:00:56,800 --> 01:01:01,760
Speaker 2: In a world where I watched the Minnesota Terms just

1314
01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:06,920
Speaker 2: last year, go to the Western Conference Finals from the

1315
01:01:06,960 --> 01:01:13,800
Speaker 2: sixth seed and the Los Angeles Clippers in this moment

1316
01:01:14,440 --> 01:01:19,280
Speaker 2: with Dylan Brooks and uh Devin Booker, Yeah, done for

1317
01:01:19,400 --> 01:01:24,080
Speaker 2: the foreseeable future with Golden State and Steph Kurks kind.

1318
01:01:23,960 --> 01:01:25,840
Speaker 5: Of like oh dead, yeah.

1319
01:01:26,560 --> 01:01:29,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, you are right there knocking on the door.

1320
01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:32,720
Speaker 2: Absolutely, it's too bad that the best player of the

1321
01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:33,959
Speaker 2: team said it's over.

1322
01:01:34,680 --> 01:01:35,960
Speaker 3: Like it's simply not like.

1323
01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:39,160
Speaker 4: He didn't he the question was to be a top contender.

1324
01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:42,920
Speaker 4: To me, he's not talking about competing against the Timberwolves.

1325
01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:45,920
Speaker 4: He's talking about competing against the Spurs, the Thunder and

1326
01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:48,840
Speaker 4: the Nuggets. Oh you are talking about.

1327
01:01:48,960 --> 01:01:51,880
Speaker 2: If if you ask Kawhi you think so to me,

1328
01:01:52,080 --> 01:01:55,000
Speaker 2: then you're telling me if he's supposed to be the

1329
01:01:55,040 --> 01:01:56,120
Speaker 2: player that he is.

1330
01:01:56,520 --> 01:01:58,120
Speaker 3: That's what it is. That if I don't want.

1331
01:01:57,960 --> 01:02:00,160
Speaker 2: To hear it when he goes through a stretch to

1332
01:02:00,200 --> 01:02:03,280
Speaker 2: twenty five games where he's always out there and he's

1333
01:02:03,320 --> 01:02:05,920
Speaker 2: always all man. Just you see Kawhi last like thirty

1334
01:02:05,920 --> 01:02:08,680
Speaker 2: five seventeen to twenty one or whatever, and he's playing

1335
01:02:08,720 --> 01:02:12,600
Speaker 2: the best defense, oh man, closest thing to Michael George, Like,

1336
01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:14,400
Speaker 2: I don't want to hear it, then, well, you know what,

1337
01:02:14,440 --> 01:02:16,120
Speaker 2: he doesn't want to hear it either, Well, I don't

1338
01:02:16,200 --> 01:02:17,400
Speaker 2: from anybody out there.

1339
01:02:17,560 --> 01:02:18,880
Speaker 3: I don't want to hear it from anybody.

1340
01:02:19,040 --> 01:02:21,600
Speaker 2: Kawhi Leonard is telling you he doesn't want to hear it,

1341
01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:22,720
Speaker 2: so don't bring it up.

1342
01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:25,000
Speaker 3: Like since I'm not even trying to crush you, I'm

1343
01:02:25,040 --> 01:02:25,520
Speaker 3: not saying.

1344
01:02:25,440 --> 01:02:27,640
Speaker 4: You're not crushing what you're saying.

1345
01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:30,400
Speaker 5: He doesn't want that either, Mark, he doesn't want that.

1346
01:02:30,640 --> 01:02:31,920
Speaker 4: I want you to leave them alone.

1347
01:02:32,040 --> 01:02:37,240
Speaker 2: Don't understand the there has been just a there's two

1348
01:02:37,280 --> 01:02:41,280
Speaker 2: players in the NBA that people there are Most players

1349
01:02:41,320 --> 01:02:46,320
Speaker 2: in the NBA get completely brutalized at almost every moment.

1350
01:02:46,440 --> 01:02:48,840
Speaker 5: Are you talking that Kawhi Leonard has not been brutalized.

1351
01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:52,280
Speaker 5: I'm just say Clipper and that's happened with the Clippers.

1352
01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:53,080
Speaker 4: In his six years here.

1353
01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:55,840
Speaker 2: When it was Paul George's fault, then when it was

1354
01:02:55,960 --> 01:02:59,640
Speaker 2: James Hardest He's and then it was Kawhi Leonard is

1355
01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:01,760
Speaker 2: the last man standing and it's over.

1356
01:03:01,960 --> 01:03:04,320
Speaker 4: You're speaking as someone maybe who has not heard the

1357
01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:07,520
Speaker 4: negativity because to say that Kawhi Leonard has not been

1358
01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:11,440
Speaker 4: dragged for the lack of success, for the lack because

1359
01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:14,640
Speaker 4: he didn't want Shake Gill, just Alexander. He wanted Paul George.

1360
01:03:14,720 --> 01:03:16,720
Speaker 4: So we look like he has been dragged.

1361
01:03:16,760 --> 01:03:19,960
Speaker 2: What are you talking I'm talking about when Paul George

1362
01:03:20,040 --> 01:03:20,400
Speaker 2: was here.

1363
01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:22,560
Speaker 3: Yes, it was Paul George's.

1364
01:03:22,160 --> 01:03:25,840
Speaker 2: Fault, because I'll talk about when James Harden was here.

1365
01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:28,880
Speaker 3: He was a real thing. It was James Harden's fault.

1366
01:03:29,160 --> 01:03:30,880
Speaker 3: And I'm talking about right now.

1367
01:03:31,280 --> 01:03:33,320
Speaker 4: But that's not that's not I don't I don't think

1368
01:03:33,320 --> 01:03:36,880
Speaker 4: you're right on that. There was blame to Paul George

1369
01:03:36,920 --> 01:03:39,520
Speaker 4: because he playoff p was a real thing. There was

1370
01:03:39,920 --> 01:03:42,400
Speaker 4: blame on James Harden because he couldn't come in the

1371
01:03:42,440 --> 01:03:44,360
Speaker 4: fifth game of the playoffs, in whatever round it was.

1372
01:03:44,400 --> 01:03:49,040
Speaker 4: It like, the blame has definitely not skipped Kawhi.

1373
01:03:49,320 --> 01:03:50,800
Speaker 5: It has absolutely not.

1374
01:03:51,200 --> 01:03:53,400
Speaker 2: I think there's two players that have a cart way

1375
01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:56,600
Speaker 2: to say whatever they want and nobody blinks, Kawhi Leonard

1376
01:03:56,640 --> 01:04:00,160
Speaker 2: and Joannis before his last this last trade thing, you

1377
01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:01,120
Speaker 2: honesty say whatever.

1378
01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:03,320
Speaker 3: Everybody's like, well, who cares.

1379
01:04:03,360 --> 01:04:05,320
Speaker 2: Joanna said he didn't even want to win anymore, and

1380
01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:08,240
Speaker 2: everybody was just winning didn't matter, and it was like,

1381
01:04:08,480 --> 01:04:10,760
Speaker 2: do you get a raise after every single year?

1382
01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:12,960
Speaker 3: If you didn't get a raised, are you a failure? No?

1383
01:04:13,080 --> 01:04:14,880
Speaker 3: Do I find the championship every year? Is that make

1384
01:04:14,960 --> 01:04:15,560
Speaker 3: me a failure?

1385
01:04:15,880 --> 01:04:19,160
Speaker 2: It's like we just let certain things go that we

1386
01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:24,400
Speaker 2: would simply lam based, Like if Steph Curry said this, people.

1387
01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:25,120
Speaker 3: Will be all over him.

1388
01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:28,600
Speaker 2: Kevin let Kevin Durant, let Kevin Durantz Burner say this,

1389
01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:30,520
Speaker 2: and people are all over Kevin Durant.

1390
01:04:30,560 --> 01:04:31,280
Speaker 5: Can't do anything right.

1391
01:04:31,360 --> 01:04:33,560
Speaker 4: Lebron James just said that the Lakers aren't a good

1392
01:04:33,560 --> 01:04:35,400
Speaker 4: team man again.

1393
01:04:35,840 --> 01:04:38,560
Speaker 2: It led my I saw it on the National Tales,

1394
01:04:38,600 --> 01:04:40,680
Speaker 2: sports talk radio and everywhereabouts.

1395
01:04:40,880 --> 01:04:42,480
Speaker 3: Lebron's quitting all the season.

1396
01:04:42,560 --> 01:04:46,880
Speaker 14: Lebron like, it's like, I'm maybe I'm strong maning because

1397
01:04:46,920 --> 01:04:49,520
Speaker 14: I definitely paid some rent producing to or three of

1398
01:04:49,520 --> 01:04:52,840
Speaker 14: these segments myself, and I'm just saying it does not

1399
01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:53,920
Speaker 14: rate in the same one.

1400
01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:58,720
Speaker 4: I'm surprised you're so angry about the answer from Kawhi

1401
01:04:58,760 --> 01:05:01,880
Speaker 4: because he's not gonna a game against the Denver Nuggets.

1402
01:05:02,040 --> 01:05:04,360
Speaker 4: A win against the Denver Nuggets make him think that

1403
01:05:04,400 --> 01:05:06,840
Speaker 4: the Clippers are about to do some real damage. You know,

1404
01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:08,600
Speaker 4: he even said after the game because they were like

1405
01:05:08,600 --> 01:05:09,040
Speaker 4: great win.

1406
01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:10,560
Speaker 5: And he's like, yeah, they didn't have Aaron Gordon.

1407
01:05:10,880 --> 01:05:13,520
Speaker 4: He knows, like that was a great win. But don't

1408
01:05:13,720 --> 01:05:16,280
Speaker 4: don't get it twisted. This team started six and twenty.

1409
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:18,040
Speaker 2: One, and there's no who else Nuggets might have in

1410
01:05:18,040 --> 01:05:20,000
Speaker 2: the postseason. Yeah, no, Eric Gordon, right.

1411
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:21,920
Speaker 4: And we went to seven games with them in the

1412
01:05:21,920 --> 01:05:24,320
Speaker 4: playoffs last year. To say that, like we have not

1413
01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:26,720
Speaker 4: been able to compete, it's just right now.

1414
01:05:26,840 --> 01:05:29,120
Speaker 5: I agree with what he says. I I don't think

1415
01:05:29,240 --> 01:05:31,120
Speaker 5: the Clippers are a true contender.

1416
01:05:31,640 --> 01:05:32,320
Speaker 4: Can they make it?

1417
01:05:32,400 --> 01:05:34,400
Speaker 2: I don't like maybe I don't like here my best

1418
01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:36,439
Speaker 2: player who never talks, say it's over.

1419
01:05:36,480 --> 01:05:37,880
Speaker 5: But I also but I didn't.

1420
01:05:37,920 --> 01:05:40,440
Speaker 4: That's not what he was saying. Again, it's over in

1421
01:05:40,480 --> 01:05:43,080
Speaker 4: the sense of that. They asked him, what can you

1422
01:05:43,080 --> 01:05:45,560
Speaker 4: guys do with the young with the young talent you

1423
01:05:45,720 --> 01:05:48,000
Speaker 4: just got because of the moves of the trade, how

1424
01:05:48,080 --> 01:05:51,000
Speaker 4: can you get to being a contender? And he said

1425
01:05:51,040 --> 01:05:54,320
Speaker 4: it's over right time, there's no time.

1426
01:05:54,480 --> 01:05:57,720
Speaker 3: Imagine if imagine if to do with.

1427
01:05:57,680 --> 01:06:00,120
Speaker 4: The young talent that just came to the.

1428
01:05:59,600 --> 01:06:01,920
Speaker 2: The trade that you guys just made intensively to get

1429
01:06:01,960 --> 01:06:02,600
Speaker 2: your team better.

1430
01:06:02,640 --> 01:06:04,040
Speaker 3: That's why you make trades, right.

1431
01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:06,400
Speaker 4: But this all happened because James Harry wanted out.

1432
01:06:06,560 --> 01:06:08,840
Speaker 3: But if said something, you make trades to make your.

1433
01:06:08,680 --> 01:06:11,560
Speaker 4: Team better, like you need to do it, I understand,

1434
01:06:11,600 --> 01:06:12,840
Speaker 4: but now there's not enough time.

1435
01:06:13,080 --> 01:06:15,640
Speaker 5: He answered that literal. I don't understand the problem here.

1436
01:06:15,880 --> 01:06:19,200
Speaker 3: The problem is he maybe it may lie to me then, buddy,

1437
01:06:19,240 --> 01:06:21,400
Speaker 3: And on that line, yes.

1438
01:06:21,240 --> 01:06:23,480
Speaker 4: We're gonna win. We're gonna take out first.

1439
01:06:23,200 --> 01:06:25,680
Speaker 3: We're gonna go give it our all. We're gonna try

1440
01:06:25,720 --> 01:06:27,960
Speaker 3: our best. And the team that just knocked us out

1441
01:06:27,960 --> 01:06:29,960
Speaker 3: of the playoffs, we just beat the picture. You know

1442
01:06:30,040 --> 01:06:32,480
Speaker 3: what it's over in terms of competition.

1443
01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:34,760
Speaker 4: No, because you're trying to make it more than it

1444
01:06:34,840 --> 01:06:38,240
Speaker 4: was when they live. The question was specific on the growth.

1445
01:06:38,400 --> 01:06:39,560
Speaker 4: There is not time.

1446
01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:42,800
Speaker 3: The question was can you just am I am? I

1447
01:06:42,920 --> 01:06:43,480
Speaker 3: am I missing?

1448
01:06:43,480 --> 01:06:45,840
Speaker 2: The question is the question can it be some down

1449
01:06:45,880 --> 01:06:48,920
Speaker 2: to can this team contend after the trade deadline?

1450
01:06:50,440 --> 01:06:53,600
Speaker 4: You guys quite aren't in the contender tier. What do

1451
01:06:53,600 --> 01:06:56,080
Speaker 4: you guys need to do to break into that tier?

1452
01:06:56,480 --> 01:06:59,400
Speaker 2: With the under the caveat of after you've made these

1453
01:06:59,440 --> 01:07:00,160
Speaker 2: trade that lie.

1454
01:07:00,800 --> 01:07:01,680
Speaker 3: Your younger team.

1455
01:07:01,880 --> 01:07:04,120
Speaker 4: Obviously younger guys still trying to find their way and

1456
01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:07,080
Speaker 4: figure that out. You're not quite the contender tier. How

1457
01:07:07,120 --> 01:07:09,040
Speaker 4: can you break into that? Is it here? Is it

1458
01:07:09,080 --> 01:07:12,439
Speaker 4: guys developing or is it something missing? Just developing over time?

1459
01:07:12,680 --> 01:07:15,280
Speaker 4: It's over now because there's no like the time is.

1460
01:07:15,240 --> 01:07:18,040
Speaker 3: Over, I suppose.

1461
01:07:18,120 --> 01:07:20,800
Speaker 2: So, so if the Clippers make the postseason, just know

1462
01:07:21,440 --> 01:07:22,320
Speaker 2: the time is over?

1463
01:07:24,400 --> 01:07:25,720
Speaker 4: Am I? Am I tripping?

01:07:25,800 --> 01:07:25,960
Speaker 13: Here?

1465
01:07:26,040 --> 01:07:26,680
Speaker 4: Am I tripping?

1466
01:07:29,800 --> 01:07:32,600
Speaker 2: If Anthony Edwards said, do you think that if if

1467
01:07:32,600 --> 01:07:35,320
Speaker 2: they made the trades they made, they reacquired Mike Conley

1468
01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:37,320
Speaker 2: after the trade downline, if he said, well we just

1469

1584
01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:01,320
Speaker 2: a lab.

1585
01:13:01,360 --> 01:13:04,880
Speaker 3: I just it just doesn't cross my radar. I didn't.

1586
01:13:05,040 --> 01:13:07,960
Speaker 2: I forgot that they were happening until I checked the

1587
01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:09,200
Speaker 2: NHL scores and realized there.

1588
01:13:09,200 --> 01:13:09,759

1591
01:13:15,920 --> 01:13:17,840
Speaker 5: I've watched more of that than i've watched rival.

1592
01:13:18,920 --> 01:13:23,439
Speaker 3: Whatever we go, well, I mean, okay, so it's not good,

1593
01:13:23,720 --> 01:13:24,479
Speaker 3: go down that path.

1594
01:13:25,040 --> 01:13:28,680
Speaker 2: But I will say this, I have heard complaints, and

1595
01:13:28,760 --> 01:13:30,679
Speaker 2: I think this is like a let's do like three

1596
01:13:30,720 --> 01:13:35,360
Speaker 2: minutes here, Okay. I've heard complaints about the timing of

1597
01:13:35,439 --> 01:13:37,040
Speaker 2: the gold medal game for hockey.

1598
01:13:37,160 --> 01:13:38,360
Speaker 4: Yes, it's stupid.

1599
01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:42,519
Speaker 2: If you want to watch it, get your ass up

1600
01:13:42,800 --> 01:13:45,320
Speaker 2: and watch it, or watch it at seven o'clock Prime

1601
01:13:45,360 --> 01:13:49,080
Speaker 2: time like everybody else in the little package that comes together,

1602
01:13:49,240 --> 01:13:53,160
Speaker 2: just like you watch the double Bludes backflip twist turn

1603
01:13:53,600 --> 01:13:55,840
Speaker 2: and the the skeet shooting competition.

1604
01:13:56,240 --> 01:13:57,040
Speaker 3: No, what we do?

1605
01:13:57,080 --> 01:13:57,679
Speaker 12: What we done?

1606
01:13:57,800 --> 01:14:00,200
Speaker 3: Skeet shooting? I ran out all I could. I think

1607
01:14:00,200 --> 01:14:01,960
Speaker 3: it was the guys on skis. I meant to say

1608
01:14:01,960 --> 01:14:05,200
Speaker 3: ski shooting and said skeek. But then you get my point, Steve.

1609
01:14:05,560 --> 01:14:08,519
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yes, in the grand scheme of things, if you

1610
01:14:08,560 --> 01:14:10,800
Speaker 4: want to watch it, you're gonna watch it. It just

1611
01:14:10,800 --> 01:14:13,400
Speaker 4: seems that there was so much hype for it to

1612
01:14:13,400 --> 01:14:16,280
Speaker 4: beat Canada and US, like that's that's what everybody was

1613
01:14:16,320 --> 01:14:19,120
Speaker 4: waiting for. And you got this matchup and you're not

1614
01:14:19,160 --> 01:14:23,800
Speaker 4: gonna move it. That's more of a watch watch it later.

1615
01:14:24,240 --> 01:14:26,880
Speaker 3: I remember when when the United States was.

1616
01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:29,480
Speaker 5: Now you want now, he wants to be logical.

1617
01:14:29,160 --> 01:14:34,120
Speaker 2: And two thousand and three Steve four four, two thousand,

1618
01:14:34,320 --> 01:14:37,439
Speaker 2: whatever whatever it was. I remember watching it going to

1619
01:14:37,479 --> 01:14:38,639
Speaker 2: a friend of mine's house.

1620
01:14:38,760 --> 01:14:39,799
Speaker 3: Might have been eight and twelve.

1621
01:14:39,880 --> 01:14:43,280
Speaker 2: Actually twelve, there you go, that's exactly what it was,

1622
01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:45,040
Speaker 2: twelve because I was still wow?

1623
01:14:45,240 --> 01:14:47,320
Speaker 3: Was I two thousand and three? Way off?

1624
01:14:47,479 --> 01:14:49,880
Speaker 10: I remember Chris Plank was on with the late night

1625
01:14:49,920 --> 01:14:52,160
Speaker 10: show because the gold medal game was going to midnight

1626
01:14:52,240 --> 01:14:52,840
Speaker 10: something like that.

1627
01:14:53,200 --> 01:14:57,000
Speaker 2: I remember pick sneaking out of the house in Michigan

1628
01:14:57,400 --> 01:14:59,479
Speaker 2: to go to my friend door indicte this house so

1629

01:15:46,840 --> 01:15:49,600
Speaker 10: Suspending the rules. Yes, for the sports bars early on

1650
01:15:49,680 --> 01:15:50,280

Speaker 2: You see that I can respect change the time. Crowd

1652
01:15:54,920 --> 01:15:57,320
Speaker 2: groos grows grow up.

1653
01:15:57,400 --> 01:16:00,000
Speaker 10: Keep in mind that it's called the Milan Winter Olympics,

1654
01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:01,479
Speaker 10: but not everything's in Milan.

1655
01:16:01,560 --> 01:16:02,919
Speaker 3: All that stuff in the mountains.

1656
01:16:03,120 --> 01:16:05,679
Speaker 10: The skeet shooting that you referred to, for example, right

1657
01:16:06,000 --> 01:16:09,799
Speaker 10: or whatever, is like three four hours away in the mountains,

1658
01:16:09,840 --> 01:16:13,280
Speaker 10: like closer to Switzerland. So they're gonna have the closing

1659
01:16:13,320 --> 01:16:16,960
Speaker 10: ceremonies a two hour drive away from the big city tomorrow.

1660
01:16:17,040 --> 01:16:19,040
Speaker 10: So by the time you play the gold medal final

1661
01:16:19,120 --> 01:16:22,760
Speaker 10: and actually give away the medals and then the participants

1662
01:16:23,080 --> 01:16:26,880
Speaker 10: get to their country's teams as a whole for the

1663
01:16:26,960 --> 01:16:30,719
Speaker 10: walk with the closing ceremonies. I won't say they're cutting

1664
01:16:30,720 --> 01:16:32,800
Speaker 10: it close, but they can't really move the gold medal

1665
01:16:32,800 --> 01:16:35,160
Speaker 10: game back. It's the last event on the program for

1666
01:16:35,200 --> 01:16:36,120
Speaker 10: the two weeks.

1667
01:16:36,040 --> 01:16:39,559
Speaker 3: And you know, two hour drive that's very much like

1668
01:16:40,280 --> 01:16:44,840
Speaker 3: going into it, don't sounds like sounds like Super Bowl

1669
01:16:44,920 --> 01:16:48,479
Speaker 3: week to me, So like everything's a two hour drive away.

1670
01:16:48,800 --> 01:16:51,320
Speaker 10: Speaking of football, by the way, the NFL had one

1671
01:16:51,360 --> 01:16:54,400
Speaker 10: of its best years for regular season TV ratings. It

1672
01:16:54,439 --> 01:16:57,519
Speaker 10: was almost nineteen million per game average for the whole

1673
01:16:57,520 --> 01:17:00,599
Speaker 10: regular season, knowing that every game is on national TV

1674
01:17:00,720 --> 01:17:04,479
Speaker 10: for NFL. Sure, the Winter Olympics have been averaging twenty

1675
01:17:04,600 --> 01:17:08,600
Speaker 10: million viewers a day for fourteen straight days. It's astounding

1676
01:17:08,640 --> 01:17:10,200
Speaker 10: what numbers they keep coming up with.

1677
01:17:11,200 --> 01:17:15,200
Speaker 2: You know, you know, Steve, I had a smart, smart

1678
01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:16,160
Speaker 2: ass remark to make.

1679
01:17:16,040 --> 01:17:18,639
Speaker 3: To that, and I'm not going to do it, thank you.

1680
01:17:18,680 --> 01:17:19,120
Speaker 1: Growing up.

1681
01:17:19,600 --> 01:17:22,639
Speaker 3: That is impressive, but there's no butt to it.

1682
01:17:22,640 --> 01:17:26,320
Speaker 10: It's impressive. The NBA gets two million and is happy

1683
01:17:26,360 --> 01:17:28,880
Speaker 10: for some games. This is twenty million a day for

1684
01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:31,760
Speaker 10: fourteen straight days, including the replay at night.

1685
01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:34,400
Speaker 2: Let's see eighty two games occurring with that on rate.

1686
01:17:34,560 --> 01:17:38,800
Speaker 2: All right, all right, coming up next, coming up next?

1687
01:17:38,880 --> 01:17:41,879
Speaker 2: Is it time for an all time great to finally

1688
01:17:41,920 --> 01:17:44,880
Speaker 2: hang them up? Maybe we'll get into it next while

1689
01:17:44,920 --> 01:17:48,120
Speaker 2: talking about Kawahi mant Yes, I'm not talking about Kawhi.

01:18:27,320 --> 01:18:29,559
Speaker 2: also goes on to close that one saying, we offer

1704
01:18:29,560 --> 01:18:31,680
Speaker 2: all of our thoughts and prayers to Rondale's family we

1705
01:18:31,720 --> 01:18:34,160
Speaker 2: love him very much obviously wants you a very very

1706
01:18:34,200 --> 01:18:36,160
Speaker 2: sad situation when you consider.

1707
01:18:35,760 --> 01:18:39,840
Speaker 4: It, it just sucks when you hear something like this,

1708
01:18:39,920 --> 01:18:42,920
Speaker 4: because it's like how you just wonder.

1709
01:18:42,680 --> 01:18:45,800
Speaker 5: How he was feeling, how long he had been feeling.

1710
01:18:45,439 --> 01:18:49,600
Speaker 4: Like that, and it just sucks, like you you know,

1711
01:18:49,640 --> 01:18:52,040
Speaker 4: it's like, I'm sure, I don't know, I don't know.

1712
01:18:52,040 --> 01:18:52,639
Speaker 5: What just sucks.

1713
01:18:52,800 --> 01:18:55,680
Speaker 3: And you know they say, you know, people say the platitude.

1714
01:18:55,840 --> 01:18:57,599
Speaker 2: You know, check on the person next to you, check

1715
01:18:57,640 --> 01:19:00,519
Speaker 2: on the people around you. You never know what's somebody's

1716
01:19:00,600 --> 01:19:03,599
Speaker 2: going through. And those are all things that sound hollow

1717
01:19:03,640 --> 01:19:05,600
Speaker 2: in a moment like this. And I'm not saying that

1718
01:19:05,680 --> 01:19:07,960
Speaker 2: would have changed anything in this moment, but what you

1719
01:19:08,520 --> 01:19:11,240
Speaker 2: something like this happens, you want to do something and

1720
01:19:11,320 --> 01:19:14,200
Speaker 2: you want to feel you know, that's something that you

1721
01:19:14,240 --> 01:19:17,320
Speaker 2: can go do in your world today that could maybe

1722
01:19:17,400 --> 01:19:19,320
Speaker 2: help somebody in a similar situation.

1723
01:19:19,439 --> 01:19:22,040
Speaker 3: But of course there's a tragic, tragic moment.

1724
01:19:22,120 --> 01:19:24,640
Speaker 2: And Rondo Moore Will played at Purdue, played for the

1725
01:19:24,680 --> 01:19:28,200
Speaker 2: Arizona Cardinals and played I was on the Minnesota Vikings

1726
01:19:28,240 --> 01:19:30,360
Speaker 2: at the time of this. You just hear stuff like

1727
01:19:30,400 --> 01:19:32,320
Speaker 2: this and your hard has to go out. And you know,

1728
01:19:32,400 --> 01:19:35,639
Speaker 2: it's not just a problem that you know, NFL players

1729
01:19:35,680 --> 01:19:39,240
Speaker 2: face the idea of having you know, suicidal ideations, are

1730
01:19:39,280 --> 01:19:41,160
Speaker 2: feeling like you want to take your own life. It's

1731
01:19:41,160 --> 01:19:43,040
Speaker 2: something that a lot of people in this world can

1732
01:19:43,080 --> 01:19:45,960
Speaker 2: relate to, and it's something that nobody, none of us

1733
01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:46,280
Speaker 2: want to.

1734
01:19:46,280 --> 01:19:49,439
Speaker 4: See never And like you just said, of you know,

1735
01:19:50,479 --> 01:19:52,800
Speaker 4: reach out to your friends. But also if you.

1736
01:19:52,840 --> 01:19:55,240
Speaker 5: Need to reach out, reach out. You know, I feel

1737
01:19:55,240 --> 01:19:57,160
Speaker 5: like you don't have to hold it all in.

1738
01:19:57,479 --> 01:19:59,080
Speaker 4: You may think that way just because no one's out

1739
01:19:59,120 --> 01:20:01,879
Speaker 4: asking you reach out yourself.

1740
01:20:02,200 --> 01:20:05,160
Speaker 2: Absolutely, there's tons of resources out there. Feel free to

1741
01:20:05,439 --> 01:20:07,600
Speaker 2: search on the internet for those types of things. I

1742
01:20:07,640 --> 01:20:10,400
Speaker 2: would recommend going away from things like the AI of

1743
01:20:10,439 --> 01:20:13,440
Speaker 2: it all, but like there are tried and true resources

1744
01:20:13,439 --> 01:20:15,559
Speaker 2: out there, and I'm not going to be responsible try

1745
01:20:15,560 --> 01:20:17,400
Speaker 2: to give any out, but do your own research and

1746
01:20:17,439 --> 01:20:20,519
Speaker 2: find some of your own because ultimately that is what

1747
01:20:20,560 --> 01:20:23,599
Speaker 2: we're what we all want everybody to have good feelings

1748
01:20:23,640 --> 01:20:26,439
Speaker 2: about how they feel about their day and their life

1749
01:20:26,479 --> 01:20:29,599
Speaker 2: and everything going on round them. Moore dead of twenty five,

1750
01:20:29,760 --> 01:20:30,479
Speaker 2: Ready rest in.

1751
01:20:30,439 --> 01:20:34,000
Speaker 1: Peace, don't sports.

1752
01:20:35,720 --> 01:20:36,080
Speaker 3: Manti.

1753
01:20:36,160 --> 01:20:39,160
Speaker 2: I I'm gonna borrow a bit that I that Ian

1754
01:20:39,200 --> 01:20:39,960
Speaker 2: told me he heard.

1755
01:20:40,080 --> 01:20:45,719
Speaker 3: I think we're moving on from a new type of saga. Right.

1756
01:20:46,360 --> 01:20:50,840
Speaker 2: For the longest time, you had Gate, and I think

1757
01:20:50,840 --> 01:20:53,000
Speaker 2: you have to run on threes for this, right, because

1758
01:20:53,200 --> 01:20:57,840
Speaker 2: you have to flake Gate, water Gate with people that

1759
01:20:57,880 --> 01:21:01,439
Speaker 2: went backwards, right, but started with Gate with the flake Gate,

1760
01:21:01,880 --> 01:21:03,679
Speaker 2: Pizza Gate, got any.

1761
01:21:03,560 --> 01:21:06,120
Speaker 6: More, bounty Gate, Barnie Gate.

1762
01:21:06,320 --> 01:21:11,040
Speaker 2: A right, so all these gates right, Well, we're on

1763
01:21:11,080 --> 01:21:13,240
Speaker 2: our second edition of files now.

1764
01:21:15,160 --> 01:21:17,320
Speaker 3: As the KD files have dropped.

1765
01:21:18,840 --> 01:21:22,280
Speaker 2: Man, they'll just be careful. I just noticed the next person. Hey,

1766
01:21:22,640 --> 01:21:24,400
Speaker 2: we might be already a trend with files.

1767
01:21:24,640 --> 01:21:25,400
Speaker 3: Be careful.

1768
01:21:25,960 --> 01:21:33,400
Speaker 2: However, the KD files dropped, and allegedly Kevin Durant had

1769
01:21:33,439 --> 01:21:37,920
Speaker 2: a lot to say about his teammates and former teammates

1770
01:21:37,920 --> 01:21:43,080
Speaker 2: and basically the NBA at large. Basically it confirmed, if

1771
01:21:43,120 --> 01:21:46,320
Speaker 2: in fact true, that Kevin Durant is just abreast of

1772
01:21:46,800 --> 01:21:50,320
Speaker 2: NBA Twitter and has a lot of takes. Essentially now

1773
01:21:50,400 --> 01:21:54,120
Speaker 2: again not confirmed that it is Kevin Durant. Kevin Durre

1774
01:21:54,160 --> 01:21:56,920
Speaker 2: when asked somebody said he was not paying attention to Twitter.

1775
01:21:57,120 --> 01:22:01,200
Speaker 4: Nonsense, right, when all you do is respond to Twitter.

1776
01:22:01,320 --> 01:22:04,679
Speaker 2: Well, to be fair, he responds to his own on

1777
01:22:04,720 --> 01:22:08,000
Speaker 2: his own Twitter. He responds on Twitter. Right, he does

1778
01:22:08,000 --> 01:22:11,000
Speaker 2: not necessarily go in a post game and be like

1779
01:22:11,680 --> 01:22:14,200
Speaker 2: I was on Twitter and I read this and this

1780
01:22:14,280 --> 01:22:17,799
Speaker 2: is what I'd like to say. Right, he generally will separate.

1781
01:22:17,960 --> 01:22:23,440
Speaker 2: So as an avid tweeter himself, I am not one anymore,

1782
01:22:23,560 --> 01:22:26,840
Speaker 2: but was at one point. I actually believe Kevin red

1783
01:22:26,960 --> 01:22:28,840
Speaker 2: is the greatest athlete tweeter of all time.

1784
01:22:29,840 --> 01:22:31,679
Speaker 3: And on the door.

1785
01:22:31,479 --> 01:22:35,960
Speaker 2: It's it's there's a heavily there's a highly contested person

1786
01:22:35,960 --> 01:22:37,600
Speaker 2: who comes up every time I bring this up. But

1787
01:22:37,640 --> 01:22:40,720
Speaker 2: I think Kevin Durant is the best celebrity tweeter of

1788
01:22:40,760 --> 01:22:44,080
Speaker 2: all time, like the person who is famous not for

1789
01:22:44,280 --> 01:22:46,639
Speaker 2: being on Twitter. Sure he was the best at Twitter.

1790
01:22:46,800 --> 01:22:47,400
Speaker 5: No, he's great.

1791
01:22:47,479 --> 01:22:52,640
Speaker 2: Right, So the saga, the burner, the quote that they

1792
01:22:52,640 --> 01:22:56,160
Speaker 2: are attributed to him, monci, let me see where the

1793
01:22:56,320 --> 01:22:57,840
Speaker 2: Let me see where the Rockets are in the standing

1794
01:22:57,840 --> 01:22:59,759
Speaker 2: and see if they still have a check their fourth

1795
01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:02,360
Speaker 2: in the standings right now, just eight and a half

1796
01:23:02,400 --> 01:23:03,639
Speaker 2: games ahead the Clippers.

1797
01:23:03,680 --> 01:23:07,360
Speaker 3: Are they done? Now? I'm just joking. It's Kevin Durant's

1798
01:23:07,360 --> 01:23:10,320
Speaker 3: burner a big enough deal. What do you?

1799
01:23:10,439 --> 01:23:10,800
Speaker 9: What do you?

1800
01:23:10,840 --> 01:23:15,080
Speaker 3: What's your take on Burner files file burner Gate, not

1801
01:23:15,160 --> 01:23:17,760
Speaker 3: burner Gate. The Burner files, Burner files.

1802
01:23:18,160 --> 01:23:24,439
Speaker 5: The KD files, Chapter one, the Burner phones listen. I feel,

1803
01:23:25,439 --> 01:23:27,920
Speaker 5: I know it's all speculation and whatnot.

1804
01:23:28,360 --> 01:23:31,439
Speaker 4: I'm I would not be surprised if this is true,

1805
01:23:32,280 --> 01:23:37,480
Speaker 4: just because there's been history of him having fake accounts,

1806
01:23:37,800 --> 01:23:39,240
Speaker 4: burners and all of this.

1807
01:23:39,240 --> 01:23:40,560
Speaker 5: This isn't new information.

1808
01:23:41,120 --> 01:23:44,120
Speaker 4: And the way that he responds to people on X

1809
01:23:44,280 --> 01:23:48,519
Speaker 4: people that he doesn't know, none of this would surprise me.

1810
01:23:49,280 --> 01:23:51,520
Speaker 5: Can it survive? Alprinchgoon?

1811
01:23:51,880 --> 01:23:54,040
Speaker 4: Is he gonna forgive him for the stuff he said

1812
01:23:54,040 --> 01:23:54,519
Speaker 4: about him?

1813
01:23:54,800 --> 01:23:55,599
Speaker 5: Can it survive?

1814
01:23:55,880 --> 01:23:58,120
Speaker 4: I think? I think if the goal is to win

1815
01:23:58,200 --> 01:24:00,759
Speaker 4: and the Rockets are good, it can serve the season.

1816
01:24:00,920 --> 01:24:03,680
Speaker 4: Will it survive beyond the season, I don't know, But

1817
01:24:03,720 --> 01:24:06,040
Speaker 4: to be honest with you, I don't even I'm more

1818
01:24:06,080 --> 01:24:09,840
Speaker 4: interested on who leaked it. That's the story I care about,

1819
01:24:10,560 --> 01:24:12,200
Speaker 4: because I'm not surprised about any of this.

1820
01:24:12,720 --> 01:24:15,200
Speaker 3: Why what interests you about the leaker?

1821
01:24:15,760 --> 01:24:19,040
Speaker 4: Because obviously it was someone from within, So it's like,

1822
01:24:19,200 --> 01:24:21,920
Speaker 4: if you if they leaked this out, there is so

1823
01:24:22,120 --> 01:24:24,040
Speaker 4: much more that we don't know about of the type

1824
01:24:24,080 --> 01:24:26,160
Speaker 4: of person that maybe Kad is behind the scenes.

1825
01:24:27,080 --> 01:24:31,040
Speaker 3: I am not going to tell on myself.

1826
01:24:31,240 --> 01:24:32,760
Speaker 5: Don't tell on yourself, but I.

1827
01:24:32,680 --> 01:24:37,280
Speaker 2: Think you maybe I don't think that there's I'll put

1828
01:24:37,280 --> 01:24:39,360
Speaker 2: it like this, there's no second drop of this.

1829
01:24:39,920 --> 01:24:41,240
Speaker 3: I feel very confident in.

1830
01:24:41,240 --> 01:24:43,240
Speaker 5: Saying that, Okay, it's over.

1831
01:24:44,160 --> 01:24:48,240
Speaker 2: Well, I'm not saying that Kevin Durant may or may

1832
01:24:48,280 --> 01:24:50,800
Speaker 2: not be using burner account. I'm not saying that any

1833
01:24:50,840 --> 01:24:54,960
Speaker 2: of the I'm saying of this instance, anything that comes

1834
01:24:54,960 --> 01:24:59,479
Speaker 2: from this forward moment forward, I feel pretty confident that

1835
01:24:59,520 --> 01:25:02,000
Speaker 2: it is going to to be new content, not stuff

1836
01:25:02,040 --> 01:25:03,680
Speaker 2: that is drawn about from this.

1837
01:25:03,800 --> 01:25:05,559
Speaker 3: I think we have seen all we will see from

1838
01:25:05,600 --> 01:25:06,479
Speaker 3: this version.

1839
01:25:06,520 --> 01:25:08,639
Speaker 5: I mean it seems that way, especially with his answer.

1840
01:25:08,760 --> 01:25:10,559
Speaker 3: I say anything we see new will be.

1841
01:25:10,520 --> 01:25:14,320
Speaker 4: New new stuff, like we're no longer going to fixiate,

1842
01:25:14,520 --> 01:25:17,560
Speaker 4: or this is done like this is done, which I

1843
01:25:17,600 --> 01:25:18,519
Speaker 4: could see.

1844
01:25:20,680 --> 01:25:21,800
Speaker 3: If instead of.

1845
01:25:21,800 --> 01:25:23,880
Speaker 2: It being like another email or another message, like this

1846
01:25:24,000 --> 01:25:25,920
Speaker 2: is like the first book of this, it could be

1847
01:25:25,960 --> 01:25:28,320
Speaker 2: Harry Potter where this is like the first book and

1848
01:25:28,320 --> 01:25:31,160
Speaker 2: there's seven more eventually are written.

1849
01:25:30,920 --> 01:25:33,639
Speaker 3: Night chapter one, but I think this is chapter one.

1850
01:25:33,720 --> 01:25:37,240
Speaker 2: This has a closed story, and if nobody ever writes

1851
01:25:37,240 --> 01:25:38,439
Speaker 2: the second book, there will.

1852
01:25:38,280 --> 01:25:39,040
Speaker 3: Be no second book.

1853
01:25:39,240 --> 01:25:41,519
Speaker 4: I would not be surprised with that, especially with how

1854
01:25:41,640 --> 01:25:45,840
Speaker 4: Kad answered the question. It seems like he probably knows

1855
01:25:45,880 --> 01:25:50,320
Speaker 4: that he has to let everything die down and quiet down,

1856
01:25:50,320 --> 01:25:51,960
Speaker 4: and he's just gonna go and play ball. And he

1857
01:25:52,080 --> 01:25:54,000
Speaker 4: dropped thirty five points like the next day or the

1858
01:25:54,080 --> 01:25:57,200
Speaker 4: day of when all of this was happening. He he's

1859
01:25:57,240 --> 01:26:00,200
Speaker 4: still like he's a hooper and he's baller. So it

1860
01:26:00,200 --> 01:26:02,519
Speaker 4: wouldn't surprise me if this is gonna be kind of

1861
01:26:02,560 --> 01:26:05,760
Speaker 4: wrapped up, because I feel like the Rockets probably want

1862
01:26:05,760 --> 01:26:06,639
Speaker 4: this to be wrapped up too.

1863
01:26:07,479 --> 01:26:14,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I think that this is first of all,

1864
01:26:14,320 --> 01:26:17,240
Speaker 2: I am not I do not care if this is

1865
01:26:17,320 --> 01:26:18,200
Speaker 2: Kevin durant or not.

1866
01:26:19,479 --> 01:26:21,479
Speaker 3: And I think that we.

1867
01:26:21,720 --> 01:26:25,040
Speaker 2: As a people who talk about this right because there's

1868
01:26:25,080 --> 01:26:27,280
Speaker 2: more than just media that talk about this type of thing.

1869
01:26:27,600 --> 01:26:31,720
Speaker 2: We don't give Kevin durant El enough credit because we

1870
01:26:31,800 --> 01:26:33,160
Speaker 2: sit here and say, like.

1871
01:26:34,720 --> 01:26:39,120
Speaker 3: Oh, did you see what he called Jabari Smith junior? Right?

1872
01:26:39,920 --> 01:26:42,760
Speaker 2: Or he called him the R word. I'm not excusing that.

1873
01:26:42,840 --> 01:26:48,760
Speaker 2: I'm just called him a name, right or alprynch Goon.

1874
01:26:48,840 --> 01:26:49,639
Speaker 4: Can't play defense.

1875
01:26:49,720 --> 01:26:53,200
Speaker 2: He can't play defense. You can't shoot, he can't defend, right?

1876
01:26:53,840 --> 01:27:01,680
Speaker 2: Oh my God, what is it about Kevin Durant that

1877
01:27:01,760 --> 01:27:05,280
Speaker 2: makes you feel? And I'm talking about just you to

1878
01:27:05,439 --> 01:27:08,519
Speaker 2: you in general that is commenting on this, Yes, what

1879
01:27:08,680 --> 01:27:09,679
Speaker 2: makes you feel?

1880
01:27:10,040 --> 01:27:12,400
Speaker 3: Kevin Durant has not said this and more to the

1881
01:27:12,400 --> 01:27:15,360
Speaker 3: people in the locker room, Yes, like Kevin.

1882
01:27:15,439 --> 01:27:19,120
Speaker 2: This is because Kevin Durant is like I think that

1883
01:27:19,240 --> 01:27:23,600
Speaker 2: there is a level of I don't want to camaraderie

1884
01:27:23,840 --> 01:27:25,719
Speaker 2: is the wrong term because it's.

1885
01:27:25,600 --> 01:27:27,720
Speaker 5: Not necessarily understanding.

1886
01:27:27,840 --> 01:27:30,679
Speaker 2: But there's a level of understanding a bit that goes

1887
01:27:30,720 --> 01:27:33,360
Speaker 2: into a group chat, right as somebody in a few

1888
01:27:33,400 --> 01:27:37,080
Speaker 2: of them myself, right, there's a level of this is

1889
01:27:37,080 --> 01:27:37,840
Speaker 2: all supposed to.

1890
01:27:37,760 --> 01:27:39,240
Speaker 3: Stay in here. Okay.

1891
01:27:39,280 --> 01:27:45,880
Speaker 2: However, as we all know, the easiest way for a

1892
01:27:45,960 --> 01:27:48,720
Speaker 2: secret ticket out is to tell nobody out to tell right.

1893
01:27:49,200 --> 01:27:51,400
Speaker 3: As soon as those group chats grow.

1894
01:27:51,560 --> 01:27:54,400
Speaker 2: It's like, how many I bet you you could point

1895
01:27:54,439 --> 01:27:56,400
Speaker 2: out three and four times in your life where the

1896
01:27:56,400 --> 01:27:57,559
Speaker 2: group chat blew you up.

1897
01:27:57,760 --> 01:28:00,559
Speaker 3: Yes, and you were like, well, why to do that?

1898
01:28:00,760 --> 01:28:02,720
Speaker 2: And it's just because that's what people do, right, you

1899
01:28:02,720 --> 01:28:04,760
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. Why the snake bite because it's

1900
01:28:04,760 --> 01:28:09,680
Speaker 2: a snake right. And so with this, I am of

1901
01:28:09,720 --> 01:28:14,160
Speaker 2: the belief that Kevin Durant, if in fact this is him,

1902
01:28:14,760 --> 01:28:19,479
Speaker 2: would have enough brains to have said whatever he was

1903
01:28:19,560 --> 01:28:23,080
Speaker 2: going to say to the people behind their facts, right

1904
01:28:23,120 --> 01:28:27,800
Speaker 2: to their faces. Especially would you consider the nature of

1905
01:28:27,840 --> 01:28:30,240
Speaker 2: his career and how he has nothing afraid.

1906
01:28:29,920 --> 01:28:30,840
Speaker 3: To pick up and move.

1907
01:28:31,120 --> 01:28:32,840
Speaker 2: He is not a man who's afraid to throw a

1908
01:28:32,880 --> 01:28:35,160
Speaker 2: stone and hide his hand. And I think the only

1909
01:28:35,200 --> 01:28:38,040
Speaker 2: reason he does it here and not just in front

1910
01:28:38,040 --> 01:28:41,120
Speaker 2: of the press conference is because people like us would

1911
01:28:41,120 --> 01:28:42,040
Speaker 2: go crazy.

1912
01:28:42,320 --> 01:28:44,080
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, Like, all that's all we

1913
01:28:44,080 --> 01:28:45,960
Speaker 3: would do, is all we never talk about. And so

1914
01:28:46,080 --> 01:28:47,479
Speaker 3: he does this in stuff And.

1915
01:28:47,400 --> 01:28:48,960
Speaker 4: That's kind of how I feel a better where it's

1916
01:28:48,960 --> 01:28:50,880
Speaker 4: like I'm not even surprised by this because of what

1917
01:28:50,920 --> 01:28:53,920
Speaker 4: you said. In fact, he's probably said worse things to

1918
01:28:54,000 --> 01:28:54,439
Speaker 4: their face.

1919
01:28:54,720 --> 01:28:59,920
Speaker 2: I will, holderly, with no inside knowledge, feel that to.

1920
01:28:59,880 --> 01:29:03,240
Speaker 4: Be because I feel like Kevin Durant has always shown

1921
01:29:03,320 --> 01:29:06,080
Speaker 4: us who he was, Like you just said, he's he's

1922
01:29:06,120 --> 01:29:10,320
Speaker 4: picked up and moved. We already people mock him because

1923
01:29:10,320 --> 01:29:12,479
Speaker 4: the championship he won was when he joined the Golden

1924
01:29:12,479 --> 01:29:14,559
Speaker 4: State Warriors, Like he hasn't been able to do it alone.

1925
01:29:14,720 --> 01:29:18,320
Speaker 4: All he does is look up people talking smack about him,

1926
01:29:18,360 --> 01:29:19,720
Speaker 4: so he could go talk smack back.

1927
01:29:20,280 --> 01:29:22,160
Speaker 5: That's that's what he likes to do when he's not hooping.

1928
01:29:22,600 --> 01:29:25,560
Speaker 5: None of this is surprising, shocking.

1929
01:29:25,360 --> 01:29:27,479
Speaker 4: And I agree with you that he's probably said it,

1930
01:29:27,560 --> 01:29:30,680
Speaker 4: if not worse, to their faces. Which is why I'm

1931
01:29:30,720 --> 01:29:33,240
Speaker 4: curious as to who leaked it, because I just I'm

1932
01:29:33,280 --> 01:29:35,160
Speaker 4: wondering where that came from.

1933
01:29:35,800 --> 01:29:37,919
Speaker 5: Was it somebody within the group message?

1934
01:29:38,360 --> 01:29:39,280
Speaker 4: Was it someone else?

1935
01:29:40,920 --> 01:29:43,479
Speaker 2: Well, I imagine you at least at some point had to

1936
01:29:43,520 --> 01:29:44,040
Speaker 2: be in there.

1937
01:29:44,680 --> 01:29:47,600
Speaker 3: But like, I'm just sitting here reading because.

1938
01:29:47,320 --> 01:29:49,000
Speaker 4: I could go, I could show you a group message

1939
01:29:49,000 --> 01:29:50,120
Speaker 4: that you're not a part of, and I want you

1940
01:29:50,160 --> 01:29:50,599
Speaker 4: to leak it.

1941
01:29:51,360 --> 01:29:52,559
Speaker 5: Well, you know that's what I mean.

1942
01:29:52,720 --> 01:29:57,679
Speaker 4: You have you know, Martin, look at this put on Twitter.

1943
01:29:57,840 --> 01:30:02,360
Speaker 2: I just clicked the criticism sec of kadiefiles dot com. Like,

1944
01:30:04,160 --> 01:30:06,200
Speaker 2: Bill's got to think about moving Josh down on the

1945
01:30:06,200 --> 01:30:08,000
Speaker 2: tight end and getting the real quarterback in there.

1946
01:30:09,040 --> 01:30:11,360
Speaker 3: Listen, I've said that before on my main.

1947
01:30:11,160 --> 01:30:16,600
Speaker 2: Account, all right, profile picture, I've said that before a

1948
01:30:16,720 --> 01:30:20,120
Speaker 2: main account, right, it was early, But I'm just saying,

1949
01:30:20,200 --> 01:30:23,400
Speaker 2: like there are times where I was like, especially when

1950
01:30:23,400 --> 01:30:25,960
Speaker 2: he fumbled the ball backwards of the worst world, we'll

1951
01:30:25,960 --> 01:30:32,240
Speaker 2: see the AFC Championship, AFC Divisional round. But uh yeah,

1952
01:30:32,439 --> 01:30:37,200
Speaker 2: his commentary of when Shannon Sharp said I'm pouring honey

1953
01:30:37,280 --> 01:30:41,160
Speaker 2: all over you go eh, I'm just saying I'm not.

1954
01:30:41,520 --> 01:30:46,799
Speaker 2: It's politically a correct sure, a commonly held sentiment, right, yeah,

1955
01:30:46,880 --> 01:30:47,280
Speaker 2: this is.

1956
01:30:47,400 --> 01:30:51,840
Speaker 3: That's not something. Yeah, we don't that. Nobody likes that.

1957
01:30:52,280 --> 01:30:54,519
Speaker 3: Nobody liked. That was shit? Why'd you do that? That

1958
01:30:54,640 --> 01:30:55,080
Speaker 3: was weird?

1959
01:30:55,520 --> 01:30:57,680
Speaker 2: That made me feel uncomfortable? Makes me want to turn

1960
01:30:57,720 --> 01:31:00,519
Speaker 2: the lights on in the room. You know, they're watching

1961
01:31:00,560 --> 01:31:02,080
Speaker 2: the movie and I gotta go turn the lights on,

1962
01:31:02,320 --> 01:31:02,559
Speaker 2: you know.

1963
01:31:04,160 --> 01:31:04,320
Speaker 13: You know.

1964
01:31:04,439 --> 01:31:08,680
Speaker 4: So where's the one about Scarlett Johansson in her bathwater

1965
01:31:09,640 --> 01:31:10,000
Speaker 4: that see?

1966
01:31:10,040 --> 01:31:11,680
Speaker 2: That would have I thought that I was again on

1967
01:31:11,920 --> 01:31:14,640
Speaker 2: main But I say, all this is said, this is

1968
01:31:14,680 --> 01:31:17,120
Speaker 2: a nothing Burke. I do not think that it matters

1969
01:31:17,479 --> 01:31:20,640
Speaker 2: in the slightest because if it is Kevin Durant, he

1970
01:31:20,840 --> 01:31:23,559
Speaker 2: was saying all of this ahead of time, that's my thing.

1971
01:31:23,680 --> 01:31:25,320
Speaker 3: And the Drayvon Greens got some.

1972
01:31:25,360 --> 01:31:28,360
Speaker 2: Nerve talking about how could he walk back into practice

1973
01:31:28,760 --> 01:31:31,240
Speaker 2: knowing that this has all been out there? And I

1974
01:31:31,280 --> 01:31:34,479
Speaker 2: think that's how because it's all been out there the

1975
01:31:34,600 --> 01:31:37,800
Speaker 2: whole time. He's not just I don't believe that Kevin

1976
01:31:37,880 --> 01:31:40,200
Speaker 2: Durant is just like hey, guys, how'd you doing and

1977
01:31:40,360 --> 01:31:44,599
Speaker 2: turning around and being like, dude, guess what shoes Alpi

1978
01:31:44,680 --> 01:31:44,960
Speaker 2: had on?

1979
01:31:45,040 --> 01:31:45,360
Speaker 3: Today?

1980
01:31:45,680 --> 01:31:48,560
Speaker 4: For sure, also dream on you punched your teammate and

1981
01:31:48,600 --> 01:31:50,519
Speaker 4: you're still wearing the same uniform, so maybe shut up.

1982
01:31:51,080 --> 01:31:53,080
Speaker 2: I did think though, that kind of gave him a

1983
01:31:53,080 --> 01:31:54,840
Speaker 2: little bit carb blanche to say, how do you walk

1984
01:31:54,880 --> 01:31:55,679
Speaker 2: back to the practice.

1985
01:31:55,680 --> 01:31:57,400
Speaker 3: It's like he did, he.

1986
01:31:57,400 --> 01:31:59,599
Speaker 4: Did it, he did. What do you mean how you

1987
01:31:59,640 --> 01:31:59,960
Speaker 4: did it?

1988
01:32:00,040 --> 01:32:01,639
Speaker 2: You do know I'm saying, but he had to walk

1989
01:32:01,680 --> 01:32:05,759
Speaker 2: back in afterwards and apologize that that's something.

1990
01:32:05,880 --> 01:32:10,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm with you. I don't think this is I'm

1991
01:32:10,080 --> 01:32:10,960
Speaker 5: not bothered by it.

1992
01:32:11,000 --> 01:32:13,040
Speaker 4: But the reason I think it is a big deal,

1993
01:32:13,400 --> 01:32:16,320
Speaker 4: it's because if you're the Houston Rockets, not that they're

1994
01:32:16,400 --> 01:32:18,639
Speaker 4: surprised and not that they don't know who their star,

1995
01:32:18,760 --> 01:32:20,240
Speaker 4: Kevin Durant or the type of person is.

1996
01:32:20,360 --> 01:32:22,519
Speaker 5: It's more like, yo, like, really, now we gotta deal

1997
01:32:22,560 --> 01:32:22,760
Speaker 5: with this.

1998
01:32:22,960 --> 01:32:23,920
Speaker 4: Now, we gotta deal with this.

1999
01:32:24,479 --> 01:32:25,519
Speaker 5: That's more of what's annoying.

2000
01:32:25,560 --> 01:32:27,479
Speaker 4: And I think for Houston coming to the end of

2001
01:32:27,520 --> 01:32:30,120
Speaker 4: the season when you are I think that I think

2002
01:32:30,160 --> 01:32:32,280
Speaker 4: Houston thinks they're a true contender.

2003
01:32:32,040 --> 01:32:33,719
Speaker 5: Like a true and that they can win the West.

2004
01:32:34,280 --> 01:32:38,600
Speaker 4: This is this is a distraction, and Kadi comes with distractions,

2005
01:32:38,880 --> 01:32:40,000
Speaker 4: but you want to limit them.

2006
01:32:40,160 --> 01:32:43,439
Speaker 5: This became bigger than probably Houston wants.

2007
01:32:43,200 --> 01:32:44,840
Speaker 6: It to be, Isn't it kind of funny?

2008
01:32:44,840 --> 01:32:46,759
Speaker 9: Guys how it just seemed like he had an issue

2009
01:32:46,760 --> 01:32:49,800
Speaker 9: with pretty much every tea. Every single says a lot

2010
01:32:49,840 --> 01:32:50,920
Speaker 9: more about you as a person.

2011
01:32:52,080 --> 01:32:53,840
Speaker 4: But he's so good on the court that any team

2012
01:32:53,920 --> 01:32:55,519
Speaker 4: is willing to take a chance. That's why he's been

2013
01:32:55,520 --> 01:32:56,679
Speaker 4: so part of so many teams.

2014
01:32:56,880 --> 01:32:58,120
Speaker 5: And Houston is good right now.

2015
01:32:58,160 --> 01:32:59,120
Speaker 4: They are really good.

2016
01:32:59,439 --> 01:33:03,320
Speaker 2: My favorite one is I missed Ben Simmons at least.

2017
01:33:02,800 --> 01:33:08,040
Speaker 2: That's hilarious, man, Like, I'm sorry, it's so accurate. And

2018
01:33:08,160 --> 01:33:11,519
Speaker 2: if in some of these, like if you had said

2019
01:33:11,520 --> 01:33:13,640
Speaker 2: this out loud, some of this will be fine. Like

2020
01:33:13,680 --> 01:33:15,920
Speaker 2: if he said James Harden is slightly the news little

2021
01:33:15,920 --> 01:33:19,280
Speaker 2: but I understand him. I miss him. That's okay, We're

2022
01:33:19,320 --> 01:33:23,760
Speaker 2: okay with that, like we should be. I mean, I

2023
01:33:23,880 --> 01:33:24,200
Speaker 2: put a.

2024
01:33:24,240 --> 01:33:25,880
Speaker 3: KWHI letter could have said all of these and everybody

2025
01:33:25,880 --> 01:33:26,640
Speaker 3: will be okay with him.

2026
01:33:27,120 --> 01:33:29,799
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, And then that's just the way the cookie crumbles.

2027
01:33:29,800 --> 01:33:33,920
Speaker 4: Life is not fair, okay, and stuff is my fault

2028
01:33:33,920 --> 01:33:37,360
Speaker 4: that Kad is already under like people are waiting for

2029
01:33:37,439 --> 01:33:39,280
Speaker 4: Katie to do something. I think you walked away in

2030
01:33:39,280 --> 01:33:40,680
Speaker 4: the break, But I said to Ian, I was like,

2031
01:33:40,880 --> 01:33:43,400
Speaker 4: kat can breathe the wrong way and people are going

2032
01:33:43,439 --> 01:33:46,479
Speaker 4: to criticize him. There's there's not much that Katie can

2033
01:33:46,560 --> 01:33:49,120
Speaker 4: do without being looked at.

2034
01:33:49,400 --> 01:33:53,160
Speaker 2: I've always kind of had a level of respect for

2035
01:33:53,280 --> 01:33:55,760
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant's ability to create the straw.

2036
01:33:55,560 --> 01:33:57,160
Speaker 3: Man argument that no one is making.

2037
01:33:57,640 --> 01:33:59,960
Speaker 2: He most recently did it that the All Star break

2038
01:34:00,560 --> 01:34:03,160
Speaker 2: when he was saying, you guys talk about this game

2039
01:34:03,240 --> 01:34:07,439
Speaker 2: seven intensity from Luka and jokichs like I was looking,

2040
01:34:07,520 --> 01:34:08,240
Speaker 2: I don't see it.

2041
01:34:09,040 --> 01:34:11,639
Speaker 3: Nobody wants game seven intensity in the All Star Game.

2042
01:34:12,240 --> 01:34:14,120
Speaker 2: We just would make it look we would like to

2043
01:34:14,160 --> 01:34:15,960
Speaker 2: make it look like you're not at work, correct.

2044
01:34:16,040 --> 01:34:18,000
Speaker 3: We want can you just have a little fun, that's all.

2045
01:34:18,320 --> 01:34:21,000
Speaker 4: Can you try to win? Can you try to win.

2046
01:34:20,960 --> 01:34:24,040
Speaker 5: Try to entertain, try to and fortunately try to win.

2047
01:34:24,080 --> 01:34:27,080
Speaker 4: And has to go with that, right because the problem,

2048
01:34:27,120 --> 01:34:29,400
Speaker 4: the problem is try to entertain. No, I don't want

2049
01:34:29,400 --> 01:34:33,599
Speaker 4: you to take seven shots from half court. I need

2050
01:34:33,600 --> 01:34:34,320
Speaker 4: you to try to win.

2051
01:34:34,880 --> 01:34:36,880
Speaker 3: Maybe if you make seven shots from half court, you.

2052
01:34:36,920 --> 01:34:38,280
Speaker 4: Know, yeah, only of your stuff.

2053
01:34:38,320 --> 01:34:42,559
Speaker 3: Curry, Oh, real quick, I'm sorry.

2054
01:34:42,640 --> 01:34:45,200
Speaker 4: I just I made him think of something, and now

2055
01:34:45,240 --> 01:34:47,080
Speaker 4: he's gonna go I made you think of something.

2056
01:34:47,120 --> 01:34:47,280
Speaker 7: I know.

2057
01:34:47,439 --> 01:34:47,960
Speaker 3: Did you see?

2058
01:34:48,040 --> 01:34:50,160
Speaker 5: I know you said you didn't even check the All

2059
01:34:50,160 --> 01:34:50,599
Speaker 5: Star Game?

2060
01:34:50,640 --> 01:34:54,040
Speaker 4: But Steph Curry did take a shot from like this

2061
01:34:54,200 --> 01:34:57,160
Speaker 4: set that they were at, like completely off the court,

2062
01:34:57,560 --> 01:34:59,519
Speaker 4: and he took four to make it, like it took

2063
01:34:59,560 --> 01:35:01,960
Speaker 4: him for to make it. He was so far away.

2064
01:35:02,000 --> 01:35:03,640
Speaker 4: And of course he makes it. I know it was

2065
01:35:03,640 --> 01:35:05,800
Speaker 4: his fourth to tenth, but y'all, it doesn't matter.

2066
01:35:05,840 --> 01:35:07,320
Speaker 5: You couldn't make it if you had one hundred.

2067
01:35:08,120 --> 01:35:10,240
Speaker 2: So that is one thing that I don't like is

2068
01:35:10,240 --> 01:35:13,080
Speaker 2: when somebody says I could do that, you can.

2069
01:35:13,160 --> 01:35:16,000
Speaker 4: No, you can't. And that's the problem, the little bit.

2070
01:35:15,920 --> 01:35:17,840
Speaker 2: One thing I said, I'd better have a professional athlete

2071
01:35:17,840 --> 01:35:20,800
Speaker 2: than I'll end with this. I feel like I could

2072
01:35:20,800 --> 01:35:25,200
Speaker 2: shoot free throws better than Ben Simmons.

2073
01:35:25,000 --> 01:35:26,240
Speaker 3: That is it.

2074
01:35:26,640 --> 01:35:29,240
Speaker 2: That is the only thing that I think I could

2075
01:35:29,240 --> 01:35:30,879
Speaker 2: do better than a professional athlete.

2076
01:35:30,880 --> 01:35:32,439
Speaker 3: And Ben Simmons I don't even come to work. She

2077
01:35:32,439 --> 01:35:35,240
Speaker 3: he's retired, right. Lenn McAll, so I gotta find somebody else.

2078
01:35:36,080 --> 01:35:39,280
Speaker 2: But like, who's doing better at something that they have

2079
01:35:39,360 --> 01:35:41,760
Speaker 2: to do for their job? Like could you you can't

2080
01:35:41,840 --> 01:35:44,439
Speaker 2: rush your edge fast better than the best edge rusher.

2081
01:35:44,439 --> 01:35:45,639
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, you can't.

2082
01:35:46,160 --> 01:35:48,559
Speaker 2: She had shoot a free throw, swing a baseball, bad

2083
01:35:48,640 --> 01:35:50,920
Speaker 2: catch a fly ball, like, none of it.

2084
01:35:51,200 --> 01:35:51,720
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.

2085
01:35:51,760 --> 01:35:53,360
Speaker 2: I think the only thing that that for the longest

2086
01:35:53,360 --> 01:35:55,120
Speaker 2: time it was me free throws Ben Simmons.

2087
01:35:55,479 --> 01:35:57,720
Speaker 3: I'll let you ponder on that, mon See, No, you're

2088
01:35:57,720 --> 01:35:58,040
Speaker 3: not wrong.

2089
01:35:58,080 --> 01:35:59,600
Speaker 4: I just like, who am I thinking of? That's a

2090
01:35:59,640 --> 01:36:03,880
Speaker 4: player right now that like tends to miss the free

2091
01:36:03,960 --> 01:36:06,880
Speaker 4: throws a lot airball them? Am I thinking of?

2092
01:36:07,479 --> 01:36:11,040
Speaker 2: He whoever you're thinking of it has a twenty percent

2093
01:36:11,160 --> 01:36:14,720
Speaker 2: better freew free throw percentage than Ben Simmons's career, Like,

2094
01:36:14,800 --> 01:36:15,960
Speaker 2: whoever you're thinking.

2095
01:36:15,720 --> 01:36:16,880
Speaker 3: Of has a better one.

2096
01:36:17,960 --> 01:36:22,040
Speaker 2: Now, a first year head coach, has a first year

2097
01:36:22,160 --> 01:36:26,439
Speaker 2: offensive coordinator, and the first year all of all of

2098
01:36:26,479 --> 01:36:30,040
Speaker 2: this is saying one of the most tenured quarterbacks in

2099
01:36:30,080 --> 01:36:33,120
Speaker 2: the NFL has to gain his trust.

2100
01:36:33,720 --> 01:36:33,880
Speaker 3: Hm.

2101
01:36:35,080 --> 01:36:38,240
Speaker 2: I'm interested because this moncey looks like it could be

2102
01:36:38,479 --> 01:36:44,080
Speaker 2: disaster on the horizon. We'll get into it next, Martin Wise,

2103
01:36:44,080 --> 01:36:46,160
Speaker 2: Monty Bilano's Fox Sports Radio.

2104
01:36:48,520 --> 01:36:56,000
Speaker 3: Uh, Moncey. Now, just Lamar Jackson.

2105
01:36:57,160 --> 01:37:00,320
Speaker 2: Is at a I would say it's at a crossroads, Okay,

2106
01:37:01,080 --> 01:37:06,600
Speaker 2: but I wouldn't he's at a crossroads. It feels like

2107
01:37:06,640 --> 01:37:09,280
Speaker 2: a little bit in his career, right. I think it's

2108
01:37:09,280 --> 01:37:11,400
Speaker 2: a little unfair, but if I'm just kind of taking

2109
01:37:11,520 --> 01:37:16,160
Speaker 2: stock of where the national conversation is. Decidedly had a

2110
01:37:16,280 --> 01:37:19,080
Speaker 2: down year last year, although I think that it's kind

2111
01:37:19,080 --> 01:37:21,800
Speaker 2: of a little bit overblown when you consider like the

2112
01:37:21,920 --> 01:37:25,200
Speaker 2: games he was in, he was very you know, pretty

2113
01:37:25,280 --> 01:37:27,840
Speaker 2: damn good to me, throwing the ball, running the ball.

2114
01:37:27,880 --> 01:37:30,360
Speaker 2: You seem to like something might have been bothering him there.

2115
01:37:30,640 --> 01:37:33,920
Speaker 2: But again, missed a ton of games in the last season,

2116
01:37:34,000 --> 01:37:34,760
Speaker 2: more than he has in.

2117
01:37:34,800 --> 01:37:35,920
Speaker 3: Typical seasons past.

2118
01:37:37,240 --> 01:37:41,960
Speaker 2: A report comes out, let's call it week fifteen or

2119
01:37:42,000 --> 01:37:46,759
Speaker 2: show six fourteen, or show Lamar Jackson is sleeping in meetings.

2120
01:37:46,840 --> 01:37:51,080
Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson is uplate playing video games. Lamar Jackson is

2121
01:37:51,520 --> 01:37:56,320
Speaker 2: essentially the piece is painting the pictures that Lamar Jackson

2122
01:37:56,840 --> 01:38:00,800
Speaker 2: are cal tewing to. Lamar Jackson's demands and questions are

2123
01:38:00,840 --> 01:38:03,639
Speaker 2: the reason why the Baltimore Ravens not getting over the hump.

2124
01:38:04,439 --> 01:38:05,440
Speaker 5: Which was ridiculous.

2125
01:38:05,439 --> 01:38:08,600
Speaker 2: But okay, yeah, I too found it to be ridiculous

2126
01:38:09,960 --> 01:38:12,200
Speaker 2: because like in these like if you're telling me Lamar

2127
01:38:12,280 --> 01:38:15,960
Speaker 2: Jackson is coming to work hungover, Okay, that's a different story.

2128
01:38:16,120 --> 01:38:18,440
Speaker 3: You're telling me Lamar Jackson is yawning.

2129
01:38:18,600 --> 01:38:20,000
Speaker 5: Right right in the time.

2130
01:38:22,040 --> 01:38:22,360
Speaker 3: Okay.

2131
01:38:22,479 --> 01:38:27,080
Speaker 2: All of this seems to me and like a one

2132
01:38:27,200 --> 01:38:31,759
Speaker 2: reading of a future divorce settlement. Okay, like one side

2133
01:38:31,760 --> 01:38:34,960
Speaker 2: of the divorce settlement, and that side, to me felt

2134
01:38:34,960 --> 01:38:38,240
Speaker 2: like it was a John Harbaugh potential who knows one

2135
01:38:38,280 --> 01:38:42,280
Speaker 2: of the coaches that is no longer there. I figured

2136
01:38:42,520 --> 01:38:45,040
Speaker 2: it was a weird thing between Lamar Jackson and John

2137
01:38:45,080 --> 01:38:48,400
Speaker 2: Harball over the last couple of years that reached a fissure,

2138
01:38:49,040 --> 01:38:52,479
Speaker 2: and Lamar Jackson evidence by the fact that John Harbaugh

2139
01:38:52,640 --> 01:38:56,280
Speaker 2: is now a New York Giant Baltimore raven remains. Lamar

2140
01:38:56,360 --> 01:39:00,639
Speaker 2: Jackson feels like he won the divorce right like that. Yes,

2141
01:39:00,680 --> 01:39:01,680
Speaker 2: it feels like he wanted to.

2142
01:39:01,760 --> 01:39:04,879
Speaker 5: Vice that they chose him right. It's like they chose exactly.

2143
01:39:05,360 --> 01:39:05,679
Speaker 3: Now.

2144
01:39:06,240 --> 01:39:09,200
Speaker 2: I am not saying that that means that Lamar Jackson

2145
01:39:09,240 --> 01:39:13,240
Speaker 2: about to get a contract Carte Blanche we saw Bashati

2146
01:39:13,320 --> 01:39:17,360
Speaker 2: at the press conference announcing his new head coach, Jesse

2147
01:39:17,479 --> 01:39:19,559
Speaker 2: Menser that Lamar Jackson's contract was hoped.

2148
01:39:19,600 --> 01:39:21,479
Speaker 3: They hoped to get work done on him soon.

2149
01:39:21,680 --> 01:39:25,240
Speaker 4: Hopefully they need they need to, They need it for

2150
01:39:25,320 --> 01:39:25,760
Speaker 4: their sake.

2151
01:39:26,120 --> 01:39:30,760
Speaker 2: One also too, though, said you know, we'd love to

2152
01:39:30,800 --> 01:39:32,599
Speaker 2: see him at more of these things. It is kind

2153
01:39:32,640 --> 01:39:37,559
Speaker 2: of commonly reported that Lamar Jackson has i think at

2154
01:39:37,720 --> 01:39:41,120
Speaker 2: six of the last eight organ the OTA periods, Lamar

2155
01:39:41,200 --> 01:39:46,560
Speaker 2: Jackson has been absent for a portion of these are voluntary,

2156
01:39:46,680 --> 01:39:50,679
Speaker 2: collectively bargained and agreed to be voluntary. And you could

2157
01:39:50,720 --> 01:39:55,400
Speaker 2: argue for different reasons why people use OTAs as sitting

2158
01:39:55,400 --> 01:39:58,479
Speaker 2: out for new contracts or just you know, Aaron Rodgers

2159
01:39:58,479 --> 01:40:03,080
Speaker 2: would rather go to Egypt, Yes, right, but voluntary. Nonetheless,

2160
01:40:03,080 --> 01:40:06,000
Speaker 2: you cannot be fined for your lack of participation in

2161
01:40:06,080 --> 01:40:08,160
Speaker 2: these things. That's like you can for other things. Remember

2162
01:40:08,200 --> 01:40:11,400
Speaker 2: the Michael Parsons scale of when's the fine coming out

2163
01:40:11,400 --> 01:40:16,520
Speaker 2: of that? All of that, so you keep that in mind.

2164
01:40:17,400 --> 01:40:20,760
Speaker 2: Declan Doyle is younger than both of us, and he's

2165
01:40:20,800 --> 01:40:23,040
Speaker 2: the offensive coordinator of the Baltimore Ravens.

2166
01:40:23,040 --> 01:40:25,160
Speaker 3: Good for him. He's twenty nine years old. Right.

2167
01:40:25,479 --> 01:40:27,560
Speaker 2: Reminds me of when I found out Freddy Idu was

2168
01:40:27,560 --> 01:40:30,000
Speaker 2: playing on the national team at fifteen and I'm fifteen

2169
01:40:30,040 --> 01:40:30,559
Speaker 2: years old, and.

2170
01:40:30,600 --> 01:40:35,479
Speaker 3: What am I doing anyway, Declan Doyle was, you know what?

2171
01:40:35,479 --> 01:40:38,519
Speaker 2: He was working at the University of Iowa as a grad,

2172
01:40:38,760 --> 01:40:43,639
Speaker 2: as a student coach, and his sophomore year. It's interesting

2173
01:40:43,720 --> 01:40:45,639
Speaker 2: if you look up to how he got there, if

2174
01:40:45,680 --> 01:40:48,040
Speaker 2: you're ever curious as to how this twenty nine year

2175
01:40:48,040 --> 01:40:52,639
Speaker 2: old kid is calling plays for a two time MVP, right,

2176
01:40:53,479 --> 01:40:57,080
Speaker 2: but this is what that twenty nine year old now

2177
01:40:57,080 --> 01:41:00,280
Speaker 2: who was Ben Johnson's offensive coordinator last year, never didn't

2178
01:41:00,280 --> 01:41:03,439
Speaker 2: call plays there obviously. Twenty nine year old, first time off,

2179
01:41:03,560 --> 01:41:06,920
Speaker 2: second time offensive coordinator, first time play caller Declan Doyle

2180
01:41:07,439 --> 01:41:11,479
Speaker 2: had to say about developing a relationship with Lamar Jackson.

2181
01:41:11,840 --> 01:41:13,519
Speaker 12: I think there's a number of things that you watch

2182
01:41:13,600 --> 01:41:15,479
Speaker 12: that I think that he can get even better. I

2183
01:41:15,520 --> 01:41:18,280
Speaker 12: think there's even a higher ceiling to his game. You

2184
01:41:18,320 --> 01:41:20,080
Speaker 12: know where you're looking at a guy who's been the

2185
01:41:20,160 --> 01:41:23,519
Speaker 12: MVP twice and yet I still think that just like

2186
01:41:23,600 --> 01:41:25,400
Speaker 12: all of our guys. But I think he still has

2187
01:41:25,479 --> 01:41:28,120
Speaker 12: room to grow as well. I think that any player

2188
01:41:28,479 --> 01:41:30,720
Speaker 12: it takes you know, really being able to work with

2189
01:41:30,800 --> 01:41:33,360
Speaker 12: them hands on, be able to watch him figure out

2190
01:41:33,360 --> 01:41:35,679
Speaker 12: what he does best, and then be able to shape

2191
01:41:35,680 --> 01:41:38,639
Speaker 12: and build this offense around what those things are. Really

2192
01:41:38,640 --> 01:41:40,600
Speaker 12: that trust is going to be earned through time, you know.

2193
01:41:40,800 --> 01:41:42,880
Speaker 12: It's not like I can call up Lamar and say, hey,

2194
01:41:42,880 --> 01:41:45,160
Speaker 12: I need you to trust me. We'll earn that over

2195
01:41:45,280 --> 01:41:46,680
Speaker 12: over time, and it's really going to be a two

2196
01:41:46,680 --> 01:41:48,320
Speaker 12: way street. He's got to earn my trust. I have

2197
01:41:48,360 --> 01:41:49,600
Speaker 12: to earn his trust.

2198
01:41:50,800 --> 01:41:53,479
Speaker 2: Did every thing jump out to you of what Declan

2199
01:41:53,560 --> 01:41:54,639
Speaker 2: Doyle had to say there?

2200
01:41:55,439 --> 01:41:58,840
Speaker 4: I had no problem with anything that he said, To

2201
01:41:58,880 --> 01:41:59,560
Speaker 4: be honest.

2202
01:41:59,320 --> 01:42:06,400
Speaker 2: With you, it to me seems very presumptive, like incredibly so.

2203
01:42:07,560 --> 01:42:08,839
Speaker 3: And I'm not saying that.

2204
01:42:08,640 --> 01:42:14,439
Speaker 2: Deklan Doyle is talking bad, right, I'm not painting this

2205
01:42:14,520 --> 01:42:16,360
Speaker 2: in a completely negative life, all right?

2206
01:42:16,439 --> 01:42:20,960
Speaker 5: So what is it that you know strung your guitar chords?

2207
01:42:21,080 --> 01:42:25,800
Speaker 2: What I don't care for is the idea do What

2208
01:42:25,840 --> 01:42:28,920
Speaker 2: I don't care for is the idea of my scene that.

2209
01:42:30,800 --> 01:42:31,719
Speaker 3: I would have preferred.

2210
01:42:31,760 --> 01:42:36,479
Speaker 2: His answer to be right, I've already grinded all these

2211
01:42:36,520 --> 01:42:40,080
Speaker 2: hours of Lamar Jackson tape. I cannot wait to get

2212
01:42:40,240 --> 01:42:44,080
Speaker 2: in the groom and see listen, I have conversations about

2213
01:42:44,080 --> 01:42:46,599
Speaker 2: where he thinks he can improve all of these different things.

2214
01:42:47,240 --> 01:42:49,920
Speaker 2: It seemed to me that and I'm not saying that

2215
01:42:49,920 --> 01:42:52,559
Speaker 2: Declan Doyle needs to bend the need to Lamar Jackson,

2216
01:42:53,080 --> 01:42:55,599
Speaker 2: But what I am saying is that Lamar Jackson is

2217
01:42:55,720 --> 01:43:00,559
Speaker 2: the power broker remaining in that organization. He's the fans

2218
01:43:00,600 --> 01:43:03,120
Speaker 2: of the Baltimore Ravens are going to care much more

2219
01:43:03,160 --> 01:43:05,840
Speaker 2: about what Lamar Jackson feels and what first year head

2220
01:43:05,840 --> 01:43:08,400
Speaker 2: coach Jesse Miner and then as an abstension, second year

2221
01:43:09,080 --> 01:43:12,479
Speaker 2: offensive court, first year offensive coordinator in Baltimore, Declan Doyle

2222
01:43:12,920 --> 01:43:16,559
Speaker 2: is talking to me. It feels like it's just he's

2223
01:43:16,600 --> 01:43:19,880
Speaker 2: got to earn my trust as well. If you don't

2224
01:43:19,880 --> 01:43:22,759
Speaker 2: trust Lamar Jackson, I don't know why you take this job.

2225
01:43:22,840 --> 01:43:25,960
Speaker 3: And I feel like you can say that about.

2226
01:43:25,960 --> 01:43:30,160
Speaker 2: A Kyler Murray who has no I wouldn't say who

2227
01:43:30,160 --> 01:43:34,559
Speaker 2: has who has not burned bridges in his organization, even

2228
01:43:34,600 --> 01:43:36,559
Speaker 2: though it's a whole new regime. Right you can say

2229
01:43:36,600 --> 01:43:38,280
Speaker 2: that about Kyler Murray. You can say that about Tua

2230
01:43:38,320 --> 01:43:42,519
Speaker 2: Tongueba Loa. You can say that about Russell Wilson. Right

2231
01:43:42,640 --> 01:43:46,040
Speaker 2: when you take over these new regimes as the Mike

2232
01:43:46,160 --> 01:43:49,240
Speaker 2: Lafleur and Sean Payton took Denver a few years back.

2233
01:43:49,280 --> 01:43:53,479
Speaker 2: And the same haircut boys in Miami, John Eric Sullivan

2234
01:43:53,560 --> 01:43:55,080
Speaker 2: and Jeff Hafley are doing down there.

2235
01:43:55,080 --> 01:43:57,519
Speaker 3: They look to me, You tell me who's different, which

2236
01:43:57,520 --> 01:43:58,240
Speaker 3: one is? Which? I need?

2237
01:43:58,240 --> 01:44:00,439
Speaker 2: Lower thirds on both of those guys when they're doing

2238
01:44:00,439 --> 01:44:03,040
Speaker 2: their press conferences. But that's because you're able to punt

2239
01:44:03,280 --> 01:44:05,799
Speaker 2: those guys those because you get off of the tools,

2240
01:44:05,840 --> 01:44:07,519
Speaker 2: you get off of the Kyler Murrays. You know that

2241
01:44:07,600 --> 01:44:10,519
Speaker 2: Russell Wilson is on a thin piece of ice here.

2242
01:44:11,160 --> 01:44:13,439
Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson is not on the thin piece of ice

2243
01:44:13,479 --> 01:44:16,920
Speaker 2: in Baltimore. Contract or not. He is not on the

2244
01:44:17,000 --> 01:44:20,840
Speaker 2: thin piece of ice in Baltimore. And to talk about

2245
01:44:21,200 --> 01:44:24,719
Speaker 2: like that he's got this is a two way street.

2246
01:44:24,920 --> 01:44:27,240
Speaker 2: I think to me, if I was coming in this position,

2247
01:44:27,280 --> 01:44:31,479
Speaker 2: I'm saying, listen, we obviously had there's a reason we're here.

2248
01:44:32,280 --> 01:44:33,679
Speaker 3: The coaches last year.

2249
01:44:33,479 --> 01:44:35,599
Speaker 2: Are there's reason why we all have new jobs, right

2250
01:44:35,960 --> 01:44:37,080
Speaker 2: because it didn't get.

2251
01:44:36,920 --> 01:44:39,080
Speaker 3: Done last year.

2252
01:44:39,160 --> 01:44:41,599
Speaker 2: But I don't worry about year before. I'm worried about

2253
01:44:41,600 --> 01:44:43,320
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. If I'm if I'm the

2254
01:44:43,400 --> 01:44:46,640
Speaker 2: new guy here. I'm saying this is an organization that

2255
01:44:46,680 --> 01:44:49,800
Speaker 2: clearly he has had a lot of success, right already,

2256
01:44:50,280 --> 01:44:52,720
Speaker 2: they need to get over the hump, right, We need

2257
01:44:52,760 --> 01:44:54,720
Speaker 2: to have a level of conversation. We're gonna figure out

2258
01:44:54,720 --> 01:44:57,840
Speaker 2: what has already worked and then what can we do

2259
01:44:58,120 --> 01:44:59,080
Speaker 2: to get over the hump.

2260
01:44:59,400 --> 01:45:03,679
Speaker 3: But this whole thing of like I need to trust

2261
01:45:03,760 --> 01:45:04,759
Speaker 3: is a two way street.

2262
01:45:04,960 --> 01:45:08,120
Speaker 2: We're really gonna expect Lamar to really be here all

2263
01:45:08,160 --> 01:45:10,080
Speaker 2: the time. First of all, this might get him fined

2264
01:45:10,479 --> 01:45:13,200
Speaker 2: in general, because you can't say I expect my player

2265
01:45:13,240 --> 01:45:16,600
Speaker 2: to be at OTAs because it's voluntary. Feels to me

2266
01:45:16,680 --> 01:45:19,280
Speaker 2: like a young guy who is kind of speaking of

2267
01:45:19,320 --> 01:45:21,639
Speaker 2: bravado that I don't feel is going.

2268
01:45:21,600 --> 01:45:24,519
Speaker 3: To necessarily play well. Again, this could be file one, right.

2269
01:45:24,600 --> 01:45:26,800
Speaker 2: I said the same thing when Ben Johnson took his

2270
01:45:26,880 --> 01:45:28,920
Speaker 2: team off of the field the first day of practice.

2271
01:45:28,960 --> 01:45:31,240
Speaker 2: I said, this might be a little bit of try hard.

2272
01:45:31,600 --> 01:45:34,519
Speaker 2: It clearly resonated, It clearly set the tone and worked

2273
01:45:34,560 --> 01:45:36,280
Speaker 2: on for the rest of the season. And I think

2274
01:45:36,280 --> 01:45:38,639
Speaker 2: if you ask those guys at the end of the season,

2275
01:45:39,280 --> 01:45:41,599
Speaker 2: if pulling them off the field day one helps at

2276
01:45:41,640 --> 01:45:43,920
Speaker 2: the tone, they would all agree. I don't think this

2277
01:45:43,960 --> 01:45:46,479
Speaker 2: helps set the tone. And maybe I'll be wrong, but

2278
01:45:46,720 --> 01:45:49,680
Speaker 2: right now, on February twenty first, I think this is

2279
01:45:49,720 --> 01:45:51,800
Speaker 2: something that he's gonna have to apologize for before he

2280
01:45:51,800 --> 01:45:52,920
Speaker 2: ever shakes Lamar's hand.

2281
01:45:53,240 --> 01:45:56,880
Speaker 4: Okay, so I think there's a lot here. I hear

2282
01:45:56,920 --> 01:46:01,360
Speaker 4: what you're saying of like you're asked for him to

2283
01:46:01,439 --> 01:46:05,599
Speaker 4: trust you when your brand new, your brand spanking new here,

2284
01:46:05,960 --> 01:46:08,839
Speaker 4: Lamar is not. And like you said, Lamar ain't going nowhere.

2285
01:46:09,120 --> 01:46:12,400
Speaker 4: Lamar doesn't have a leash that is gonna be cut

2286
01:46:12,400 --> 01:46:14,920
Speaker 4: at any time soon. Doyle has a really short least

2287
01:46:15,160 --> 01:46:17,920
Speaker 4: at leash, probably right. But I think what he's saying

2288
01:46:17,960 --> 01:46:21,000
Speaker 4: with that is I he even said, he's like, I

2289
01:46:21,040 --> 01:46:24,360
Speaker 4: think there's more ceiling to him. There's more to Lamar

2290
01:46:24,720 --> 01:46:29,960
Speaker 4: that we haven't seen. I need him to trust me

2291
01:46:30,439 --> 01:46:33,320
Speaker 4: with what I'm going to present to him, with what

2292
01:46:33,400 --> 01:46:35,799
Speaker 4: I'm going to bring to him. He's got to trust

2293
01:46:35,840 --> 01:46:38,479
Speaker 4: me too. He can't not trust me, and I think

2294
01:46:38,600 --> 01:46:40,559
Speaker 4: that's what he was saying. He also is.

2295
01:46:40,520 --> 01:46:42,720
Speaker 5: Walking into a situation where the pressure is high.

2296
01:46:42,760 --> 01:46:45,280
Speaker 4: Because I think the Ravens are favored to win the

2297
01:46:45,320 --> 01:46:47,080
Speaker 4: Super Bowl this off season.

2298
01:46:47,360 --> 01:46:50,560
Speaker 2: They should be they have Lamar Jackson, like you know

2299
01:46:50,560 --> 01:46:56,280
Speaker 2: what I'm saying, ye got.

2300
01:46:56,160 --> 01:46:59,160
Speaker 4: Fired and they haven't gone there. So the pressure is

2301
01:46:59,320 --> 01:47:02,519
Speaker 4: immense on the coaching staff, not on Lamar when it

2302
01:47:02,600 --> 01:47:03,639
Speaker 4: should still be on Lamar.

2303
01:47:03,680 --> 01:47:06,040
Speaker 3: Now, I think there's a ton of pressure on him,

2304
01:47:06,080 --> 01:47:07,320
Speaker 3: but it's but.

2305
01:47:07,280 --> 01:47:09,120
Speaker 4: You wonder, Yes, I feel like you're right. There is

2306
01:47:09,160 --> 01:47:11,759
Speaker 4: a ton of pressure. It's just different type of pressure.

2307
01:47:12,120 --> 01:47:16,200
Speaker 4: And I think this guy not to bring in oh

2308
01:47:16,400 --> 01:47:19,160
Speaker 4: from blanking out on his name right now. Emanuel also

2309
01:47:19,360 --> 01:47:22,200
Speaker 4: no Emmanuel also when he said that, like that comment

2310
01:47:22,240 --> 01:47:24,800
Speaker 4: of like how are you asking? When he was saying,

2311
01:47:24,800 --> 01:47:27,040
Speaker 4: like a brand new coach, coach coming into a situation

2312
01:47:27,400 --> 01:47:29,200
Speaker 4: that was young, and then I got you.

2313
01:47:29,800 --> 01:47:32,439
Speaker 2: Todd Monkin said he's gonna need your door Shanders to

2314
01:47:32,439 --> 01:47:35,679
Speaker 2: get on the same page as me. And why why

2315
01:47:35,720 --> 01:47:37,559
Speaker 2: is should door going to listen to Todd Monkin? And the

2316
01:47:37,760 --> 01:47:42,160
Speaker 2: answer is because, well you have your answer right.

2317
01:47:42,040 --> 01:47:45,719
Speaker 4: So tying it into that, I feel like this coach

2318
01:47:45,840 --> 01:47:51,320
Speaker 4: is trying to establish some sort of of something, not culture,

2319
01:47:51,320 --> 01:47:53,280
Speaker 4: because it's way too fast to say that, but he

2320
01:47:53,360 --> 01:47:56,200
Speaker 4: is trying to establish something different in Baltimore.

2321
01:47:56,280 --> 01:47:58,479
Speaker 3: So I do believe culture to established day one.

2322
01:47:58,600 --> 01:47:59,960
Speaker 5: Sure, but not in this interview.

2323
01:48:00,240 --> 01:48:02,800
Speaker 2: I think no. I think that no. I think that

2324
01:48:02,840 --> 01:48:05,200
Speaker 2: from the introductory press con, I don't. I don't think

2325
01:48:05,240 --> 01:48:08,840
Speaker 2: that everything that you're saying and doing is is it

2326
01:48:08,960 --> 01:48:10,000
Speaker 2: all goes in culture.

2327
01:48:10,080 --> 01:48:11,559
Speaker 4: Culture is something that is built.

2328
01:48:11,840 --> 01:48:13,840
Speaker 3: You can't do it, and it starts the first day.

2329
01:48:14,000 --> 01:48:15,240
Speaker 3: It starts day one.

2330
01:48:15,320 --> 01:48:16,960
Speaker 5: Know that that's when it actually started.

2331
01:48:17,120 --> 01:48:19,240
Speaker 3: Es if it does one, you don't have the right

2332
01:48:19,280 --> 01:48:20,320
Speaker 3: guy running in front, but the.

2333
01:48:20,320 --> 01:48:22,600
Speaker 4: Culture that you're looking at, and you're probably looking for

2334
01:48:22,680 --> 01:48:25,360
Speaker 4: something in particular to say that's culture, when in reality

2335
01:48:25,360 --> 01:48:26,960
Speaker 4: it could be looked at differently and the culture is

2336
01:48:26,960 --> 01:48:29,400
Speaker 4: approached differently. So I just I think we're saying the

2337
01:48:29,439 --> 01:48:30,920
Speaker 4: same thing. We're just I think there's a different way

2338
01:48:30,960 --> 01:48:33,679
Speaker 4: to get there. And so I don't have a problem

2339
01:48:33,760 --> 01:48:36,880
Speaker 4: with what he said. I think Lamar should be there

2340
01:48:36,920 --> 01:48:40,080
Speaker 4: at OTA's everything that is brand new. You should be there.

2341
01:48:40,120 --> 01:48:42,120
Speaker 4: And if he's not there, I don't know if it's

2342
01:48:42,120 --> 01:48:43,160
Speaker 4: the end of the world.

2343
01:48:43,040 --> 01:48:44,200
Speaker 5: But I think he should be there.

2344
01:48:44,240 --> 01:48:46,200
Speaker 4: And I think the coach is just saying, like, trust

2345
01:48:46,240 --> 01:48:48,040
Speaker 4: me with what I'm going to bring to you, because

2346
01:48:48,080 --> 01:48:50,120
Speaker 4: I think there's more to you than we have yet

2347
01:48:50,160 --> 01:48:52,320
Speaker 4: to see. And I don't think that's bad.

2348
01:48:53,240 --> 01:48:55,720
Speaker 3: I don't know. It's two way street. So you've got

2349
01:48:55,760 --> 01:48:57,800
Speaker 3: to see what is Lamar bringing to me. I don't

2350
01:48:57,800 --> 01:48:58,720
Speaker 3: know what he's going to bring to you.

2351
01:48:58,800 --> 01:49:01,000
Speaker 2: Is what he's brought to the field the last what

2352
01:49:02,240 --> 01:49:05,360
Speaker 2: four years, which has been MVP level or right there

2353
01:49:05,400 --> 01:49:09,479
Speaker 2: play probably up until last season. Like I Joe Brady

2354
01:49:09,600 --> 01:49:11,559
Speaker 2: talking about Josh Allen and we got to get to Steve.

2355
01:49:12,160 --> 01:49:14,479
Speaker 2: When Joe Brady was talking about Josh Allen, it wasn't no,

2356
01:49:15,200 --> 01:49:16,120
Speaker 2: this trust has.

2357
01:49:15,960 --> 01:49:17,160
Speaker 3: To be a two way street.

2358
01:49:17,520 --> 01:49:20,360
Speaker 2: It was all I have to gain Josh's trust to

2359
01:49:20,400 --> 01:49:22,920
Speaker 2: be able to show him I can get him to

2360
01:49:22,960 --> 01:49:26,760
Speaker 2: the next level. A lot different sounding conversation out of

2361
01:49:26,800 --> 01:49:29,639
Speaker 2: the two of them, and Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson,

2362
01:49:29,880 --> 01:49:33,200
Speaker 2: to my my, in my opinion, are right about neck

2363
01:49:33,200 --> 01:49:37,000
Speaker 2: and neck in terms of quarterback ability, quarterback pressure, and

2364
01:49:37,080 --> 01:49:38,200
Speaker 2: quarterback status.

2365
01:49:39,760 --> 01:49:40,960
Speaker 5: I don't disagree with that.

2366
01:49:41,120 --> 01:49:43,840
Speaker 4: But what is it so bad to hold Lamar to

2367
01:49:43,920 --> 01:49:46,040
Speaker 4: a higher standard than Joe Brady?

2368
01:49:46,080 --> 01:49:49,840
Speaker 2: To again, I'm saying in your introduct three year first

2369
01:49:49,840 --> 01:49:51,400
Speaker 2: week presscofference.

2370
01:49:50,840 --> 01:49:53,200
Speaker 4: He's holding him to a higher standard. And I don't

2371
01:49:53,200 --> 01:49:54,680
Speaker 4: know what what's bad about.

2372
01:49:54,400 --> 01:49:57,479
Speaker 2: That because he's you better be able to meet the

2373
01:49:57,520 --> 01:49:59,200
Speaker 2: standards you're holding your player too.

2374
01:49:59,240 --> 01:50:00,720
Speaker 3: That's what that's my question, YEP.

2375
01:50:00,800 --> 01:50:03,080
Speaker 5: And so they and the Ravens have to deliver.

2376
01:50:03,439 --> 01:50:05,640
Speaker 4: It's not just Lamar, right, like Lamark can do what

2377
01:50:05,680 --> 01:50:07,679
Speaker 4: he but the Ravens as a team have to all deliver.

2378
01:50:07,760 --> 01:50:09,240
Speaker 2: This is the type of Okay, I put it like,

2379
01:50:09,280 --> 01:50:11,840
Speaker 2: this is the type of statement that you make. And

2380
01:50:11,920 --> 01:50:14,320
Speaker 2: if you show Lamar Jackson, if you give a show

2381
01:50:14,600 --> 01:50:16,639
Speaker 2: that you don't know what you're doing, Lamar.

2382
01:50:16,479 --> 01:50:18,920
Speaker 3: Jackson's are all type of coaches like Todd Monkin.

2383
01:50:19,200 --> 01:50:21,040
Speaker 2: You live the way Lamar talked, the way that Todd

2384
01:50:21,080 --> 01:50:22,479
Speaker 2: Mankin talked about Lamar Jackson.

2385
01:50:22,760 --> 01:50:24,960
Speaker 3: I don't know if it was ever. This guy has

2386
01:50:25,000 --> 01:50:26,240
Speaker 3: no idea what he's doing.

2387
01:50:26,280 --> 01:50:29,360
Speaker 2: We may disagree, we may clash, even if that didn't happen,

2388
01:50:29,400 --> 01:50:31,920
Speaker 2: but it's no, this guy doesn't know what he's doing.

2389
01:50:31,960 --> 01:50:34,680
Speaker 2: And at twenty nine years old and your second and

2390
01:50:34,720 --> 01:50:37,800
Speaker 2: your first time ever calling plays, if you give the

2391
01:50:37,800 --> 01:50:39,880
Speaker 2: implication this like.

2392
01:50:40,000 --> 01:50:42,360
Speaker 4: Don't you want somebody confident that knows what they're what

2393
01:50:42,520 --> 01:50:44,320
Speaker 4: at least that they feel like they know what they're doing.

2394
01:50:44,360 --> 01:50:44,800
Speaker 4: Don't you want?

2395
01:50:44,880 --> 01:50:46,400
Speaker 2: All Right, I'll put it like this. If I came

2396
01:50:46,439 --> 01:50:48,400
Speaker 2: into our show and I was like, Manchi, don't worry.

2397
01:50:48,400 --> 01:50:50,960
Speaker 2: I want to do the rundown every single week because

2398
01:50:51,000 --> 01:50:53,080
Speaker 2: I know what I'm doing. I got this. I need

2399
01:50:53,120 --> 01:50:55,400
Speaker 2: you to trust me, and I know I trust you.

2400
01:50:55,439 --> 01:50:57,160
Speaker 2: When the lights come on, you're gonna do your thing.

2401
01:50:57,400 --> 01:50:59,120
Speaker 2: And then I open up this thing and we're talking

2402
01:50:59,200 --> 01:51:01,920
Speaker 2: six hours of you're gonna be like, oh, this guy

2403
01:51:02,000 --> 01:51:04,600
Speaker 2: has no clue what he's doing. Clearly I need to

2404
01:51:04,600 --> 01:51:07,360
Speaker 2: step in here and take that. That is what I

2405
01:51:07,439 --> 01:51:09,760
Speaker 2: fear could be happening in Baltimore.

2406
01:51:10,479 --> 01:51:12,000
Speaker 5: But we we're nowhere near that.

2407
01:51:12,120 --> 01:51:15,800
Speaker 4: Until we get closer to actual OTAs and practices, you

2408
01:51:15,920 --> 01:51:18,519
Speaker 4: might be right. I just think that you may be

2409
01:51:18,640 --> 01:51:20,360
Speaker 4: wrong here, Steve.

2410
01:51:20,400 --> 01:51:23,200
Speaker 10: With the curling scores, I don't think you can do

2411
01:51:23,240 --> 01:51:25,000
Speaker 10: six hours on that, ye'll think.

2412
01:51:25,080 --> 01:51:27,400
Speaker 3: So, However, twenty one million people will watch it. Steve.

2413
01:51:27,400 --> 01:51:32,320
Speaker 2: If you'll say, I'm sorry, I've done, I've done.

2414
01:51:32,360 --> 01:51:32,840
Speaker 3: I'm sorry.

2415
01:51:32,880 --> 01:51:35,400
Speaker 10: Canada's women did beat the US for the bronze today

2416
01:51:35,439 --> 01:51:38,240
Speaker 10: ten to seven. We have, as it turned out, got

2417
01:51:38,320 --> 01:51:40,840

Speaker 2: On this Lamar Jackson, Deckland Doyle topic, when Joe Brady

2470
01:54:34,240 --> 01:54:37,240
Speaker 2: was introduced as the head coach of the Bills, okay,

2471
01:54:37,440 --> 01:54:40,720
Speaker 2: promoted from within fire after Cheann mcdermomer.

2472
01:54:40,280 --> 01:54:41,840
Speaker 5: Was fired, already worked with.

2473
01:54:42,000 --> 01:54:46,000
Speaker 2: Having already worked with, quote, Josh Allen's the best player

2474
01:54:46,040 --> 01:54:48,000
Speaker 2: in the NFL, and I have to grow and part

2475
01:54:48,040 --> 01:54:50,280
Speaker 2: of me growing is that's going to allow him to

2476
01:54:50,320 --> 01:54:53,360
Speaker 2: be the better version of himself. Then he goes on

2477
01:54:53,480 --> 01:54:57,320
Speaker 2: to say, after you know, twenty more minutes of all

2478
01:54:57,720 --> 01:55:00,600
Speaker 2: everything I think about is trying to fire ways to

2479
01:55:00,640 --> 01:55:03,520
Speaker 2: put Josh in a position to succeed, in a position

2480
01:55:03,600 --> 01:55:06,000
Speaker 2: to have success, because that's all I care about him.

2481
01:55:06,000 --> 01:55:08,360
Speaker 2: He's a leader of this organization and the weight he

2482
01:55:08,400 --> 01:55:11,680
Speaker 2: has on his shoulders is something I can't even imagine.

2483
01:55:11,960 --> 01:55:12,280
Speaker 3: Now.

2484
01:55:12,880 --> 01:55:15,800
Speaker 2: I'm just saying that sounds like a guy talking about

2485
01:55:15,800 --> 01:55:19,680
Speaker 2: his franchise quarterback. That glend Doyle, this is going to

2486
01:55:19,720 --> 01:55:23,120
Speaker 2: be a two way street to gain trust. Does not

2487
01:55:23,200 --> 01:55:25,800
Speaker 2: sound like a guy talking about his franchise quarterback.

2488
01:55:25,960 --> 01:55:30,040
Speaker 4: I just don't think either one is wrong. I feel

2489
01:55:30,040 --> 01:55:32,240
Speaker 4: like it's not a bad thing that this guy is

2490
01:55:32,320 --> 01:55:35,640
Speaker 4: not coming in acting like everything is going to be

2491
01:55:35,720 --> 01:55:37,880
Speaker 4: easy and right from the start. There has to be

2492
01:55:37,960 --> 01:55:42,280
Speaker 4: a relationship being built here. Joe Brady, he's been working

2493
01:55:42,280 --> 01:55:44,560
Speaker 4: with Josh Allen. He could say he's the greatest player

2494
01:55:44,560 --> 01:55:48,000
Speaker 4: because I've watched it. This guy has watched Lamar Jackson

2495
01:55:48,040 --> 01:55:50,760
Speaker 4: from AFAR. I just don't he's holding him to a

2496
01:55:50,800 --> 01:55:52,760
Speaker 4: high standard. I don't know what's so bad about.

2497
01:55:52,560 --> 01:55:56,640
Speaker 2: That this big three's only been together for twelve times.

2498
01:55:56,720 --> 01:55:59,480
Speaker 3: What's wrong with the most important one of them. We'll

2499
01:55:59,480 --> 01:55:59,840
Speaker 3: get to it.

2500
01:56:00,120 --> 01:56:00,600
Speaker 4: Everything.

2501
01:56:03,320 --> 01:56:04,920
Speaker 3: So last night, MONSI.

2502
01:56:06,400 --> 01:56:12,520
Speaker 2: The Los Angeles Lakers with Luka Doncic, Austin Reeves.

2503
01:56:12,080 --> 01:56:16,480
Speaker 3: And Lebron James played George Los Angeles Clippers.

2504
01:56:16,520 --> 01:56:22,080
Speaker 2: It sure did, and uh, something tells me that this

2505
01:56:22,160 --> 01:56:24,560
Speaker 2: is what's going to inspire your next couple of minutes.

2506
01:56:26,560 --> 01:56:28,920
Speaker 4: Uh No, Listen, that was a It was a second

2507
01:56:28,960 --> 01:56:30,280
Speaker 4: out of a back to back for the Clippers.

2508
01:56:30,320 --> 01:56:31,200
Speaker 5: They lost by three.

2509
01:56:31,280 --> 01:56:35,680
Speaker 4: They lost John Collins and early in the game, and

2510
01:56:35,880 --> 01:56:39,600
Speaker 4: Kawhi didn't finished the game. But watching that game not yea.

2511
01:56:39,640 --> 01:56:43,200
Speaker 4: I was frustrated with with some of the officiating that

2512
01:56:43,280 --> 01:56:45,400
Speaker 4: was going on, but that's an every game. But what

2513
01:56:45,520 --> 01:56:48,280
Speaker 4: I when I finished the game, Mark, I was like, Man,

2514
01:56:48,680 --> 01:56:53,760
Speaker 4: I never disliked Luka Doncic as a mav never Granted,

2515
01:56:53,880 --> 01:56:56,280
Speaker 4: I don't like the Lakers, right, But the reason I

2516
01:56:56,320 --> 01:56:59,040
Speaker 4: have such a hard time watching Luca is the way

2517
01:56:59,320 --> 01:57:02,640
Speaker 4: he's playing now. All he's playing for is for the

2518
01:57:02,760 --> 01:57:05,920
Speaker 4: foul and then he wants he talks smack to Chris Dunn.

2519
01:57:06,200 --> 01:57:08,880
Speaker 4: Why you talk his back to like our seventh best player?

2520
01:57:09,160 --> 01:57:12,360
Speaker 4: Go talks back to Kawhi and see what happens After

2521
01:57:12,440 --> 01:57:15,360
Speaker 4: an illegal moving screen from DeAndre Ayen where he makes

2522
01:57:15,360 --> 01:57:18,640
Speaker 4: a three, he wants to talk smack. I'm just like, Luca,

2523
01:57:19,600 --> 01:57:23,040
Speaker 4: you're so good, how do you not see how unattractive

2524
01:57:23,040 --> 01:57:24,640
Speaker 4: it is to watch you play basketball?

2525
01:57:25,840 --> 01:57:27,440
Speaker 5: I never felt like this before, Marian.

2526
01:57:27,560 --> 01:57:28,200
Speaker 3: I wouldn't say.

2527
01:57:28,240 --> 01:57:31,520
Speaker 2: The aesthetic of the game is one that I personally

2528
01:57:31,560 --> 01:57:33,120
Speaker 2: care about way more than anything else.

2529
01:57:33,160 --> 01:57:35,480
Speaker 3: But I try not to let it slip into evaluation.

2530
01:57:35,520 --> 01:57:36,839
Speaker 3: Cause I tell you this how I never.

2531
01:57:36,760 --> 01:57:40,680
Speaker 2: Voted for Shay Gilles as Alexander as the MVP. I

2532
01:57:40,680 --> 01:57:42,240
Speaker 2: would have had a tough time doing it because I

2533
01:57:42,240 --> 01:57:44,280
Speaker 2: don't like the way he plays, but I understand that

2534
01:57:44,360 --> 01:57:46,960
Speaker 2: he is the MVP of the league as old last

2535
01:57:47,040 --> 01:57:49,560
Speaker 2: year was the MVP of the league. The thing with

2536
01:57:49,640 --> 01:57:53,240
Speaker 2: Luka doncis to me is, I don't know why y'all

2537
01:57:53,240 --> 01:57:55,520
Speaker 2: do y'all do this every year. And I'm saying, just

2538
01:57:55,600 --> 01:57:59,560
Speaker 2: you Manci, but the collective y'all, I can see it now.

2539
01:57:59,840 --> 01:58:05,920
Speaker 2: It's like August twenty first, not quite training like I'm sorry,

2540
01:58:05,920 --> 01:58:08,440
Speaker 2: Like August first, we're want training camps to start. We're

2541
01:58:08,440 --> 01:58:12,200
Speaker 2: in a real dead period, like with time for Dodger baseball. Okay,

2542
01:58:13,120 --> 01:58:16,880
Speaker 2: And a men's health article drops and Luca Donton says,

2543
01:58:17,400 --> 01:58:21,280
Speaker 2: shaking pictures working out and it's oh man, Skinny Lucas

2544
01:58:21,400 --> 01:58:24,920
Speaker 2: back in action, Skinny Lucas. Oh look out below, Skenny

2545
01:58:24,960 --> 01:58:29,320
Speaker 2: Lucas gonna be a problem. Luka Doncis seems to me

2546
01:58:29,760 --> 01:58:32,720
Speaker 2: to be out of shape, and that is why he is,

2547
01:58:33,160 --> 01:58:36,360
Speaker 2: like to your point, hunting for fouls or complaining, like

2548
01:58:36,600 --> 01:58:40,320
Speaker 2: cause he has the blowby of a mac truck. He'll

2549
01:58:40,360 --> 01:58:43,280
Speaker 2: get past you, but the start to six, zero to

2550
01:58:43,320 --> 01:58:44,640
Speaker 2: sixty takes up forever.

2551
01:58:45,360 --> 01:58:47,120
Speaker 4: You might be right that that's it because I know,

2552
01:58:47,200 --> 01:58:49,680
Speaker 4: shake kill. Just Alexander last year was so annoying to watch,

2553
01:58:49,920 --> 01:58:51,880
Speaker 4: but his athleticism was not a question.

2554
01:58:52,120 --> 01:58:52,240
Speaker 3: Right.

2555
01:58:52,400 --> 01:58:54,680
Speaker 4: He was driving in and like right, So it's like, oh,

2556
01:58:54,720 --> 01:58:56,440
Speaker 4: you're so annoyed because you aren't playing for the foul,

2557
01:58:56,680 --> 01:58:58,480
Speaker 4: but you are driving in and I see it with

2558
01:58:58,600 --> 01:59:02,240
Speaker 4: Luca's like you're going so slow and you're backing your

2559
01:59:02,240 --> 01:59:04,440
Speaker 4: butt into someone and then you get mad when someone

2560
01:59:04,480 --> 01:59:06,320
Speaker 4: breathes on you, and then you look at the ref

2561
01:59:06,400 --> 01:59:08,680
Speaker 4: and then if you make the shot, but with an

2562
01:59:08,800 --> 01:59:10,640
Speaker 4: N one, you want to steer the player down and.

2563
01:59:10,560 --> 01:59:11,560
Speaker 5: It's like, what are you?

2564
01:59:11,760 --> 01:59:13,880
Speaker 4: This is what you're trying to do, and like you're

2565
01:59:13,960 --> 01:59:16,360
Speaker 4: so good that it's it's annoying because you don't have

2566
01:59:16,400 --> 01:59:18,040
Speaker 4: to play like that. But you might be onto it

2567
01:59:18,080 --> 01:59:21,080
Speaker 4: that he's just out of shape, and I just don't

2568
01:59:21,080 --> 01:59:23,640
Speaker 4: know if it's seen the Laker uniform. But I never

2569
01:59:23,800 --> 01:59:25,080
Speaker 4: I never looked at him like that.

2570
01:59:25,560 --> 01:59:27,840
Speaker 2: He was like, this is what I said, like when

2571
01:59:27,920 --> 01:59:31,360
Speaker 2: he was traded the con like it was two things

2572
01:59:31,360 --> 01:59:35,360
Speaker 2: that people could not separate the concept of trading Luka

2573
01:59:35,480 --> 01:59:39,600
Speaker 2: dances for the concept of what the package was in return.

2574
01:59:39,680 --> 01:59:43,800
Speaker 2: Correct if you had somehow if there was a Yannis

2575
01:59:43,880 --> 01:59:47,040
Speaker 2: type of sweepstakes, I wouldn't have what I have said

2576
01:59:47,160 --> 01:59:49,000
Speaker 2: was the wrong idea. I would have said, you try

2577
01:59:49,040 --> 01:59:51,040
Speaker 2: to figure it out with that guy, because it's gonna

2578
01:59:51,040 --> 01:59:52,880
Speaker 2: be really hard not to. But if you felt you

2579
01:59:52,880 --> 01:59:55,600
Speaker 2: were at your wits end and you thought you had

2580
01:59:55,640 --> 01:59:59,120
Speaker 2: an asset that was super valuable, which Luca Dances obviously

2581
01:59:59,240 --> 02:00:01,280
Speaker 2: was like the like the Bucks obviously do with the

2582
02:00:01,360 --> 02:00:03,520
Speaker 2: honest like, you could have made.

2583
02:00:03,440 --> 02:00:05,720
Speaker 3: That move, yeah before you get five first.

2584
02:00:05,640 --> 02:00:07,040
Speaker 2: Round picks for it, and you might have been looking

2585
02:00:07,080 --> 02:00:09,600
Speaker 2: really smart right now, because I'm not saying that Luca

2586
02:00:09,680 --> 02:00:12,560
Speaker 2: Doncis and the Lakers are gonna walk through the Western

2587
02:00:12,560 --> 02:00:13,200
Speaker 2: Conference finals.

2588
02:00:13,400 --> 02:00:16,840
Speaker 3: Sure doesn't feel like it, Sure doesn't feel like it right.

2589
02:00:16,880 --> 02:00:19,800
Speaker 2: And that's the type of guy that when he was traded,

2590
02:00:20,480 --> 02:00:22,400
Speaker 2: was the guy you thought you were trading for, a

2591
02:00:22,400 --> 02:00:24,680
Speaker 2: guy who could take your team to the NBA Finals.

2592
02:00:24,720 --> 02:00:27,400
Speaker 4: He's making me not want to watch basketball. And that's

2593
02:00:27,440 --> 02:00:28,600
Speaker 4: a lot because I loved Luca.

2594
02:00:28,760 --> 02:00:30,200
Speaker 3: That's Kawhi. He said he's done.
