We'll try 44 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: to keep you awake. We'll try to keep you awake. 45 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: So we go to Wisconsin, Wisconsin, we go the land 46 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: of Cheese and the Soso Sports. But Yannis Adenta Kombo, 47 00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: a name so long with so many letters, you have 48 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: to win an MVP award for us to learn how 49 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: to pronounce your name. But he did so. Jannis and 50 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: Natakombo is back. He's back with the Milwaukee Bucks. However, 51 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: there is much more to the story if you have 52 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: not been following along here behind the scenes, the chatter 53 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: picking up that the Milwaukee Bucks had engaged in trade 54 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,359 Speaker 1: conversations this offseason, and this did not pop up at 55 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: the time it was going on. However, they're not shutting 56 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 1: the door to trade conversations. And if you have not 57 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: been following, we're told that Jannis and his underlings, his todies, 58 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: they've been fielding trade interest since the NBA Draft combine 59 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: that was back in mid May. In mid May, here 60 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 1: we are in October doing homework on possible destinations around 61 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: the association. Okay, so that's the story. Multiple franchises said, 62 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: we would like to have that particular player, we would 63 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: like to acquire that player's services. And so the team 64 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: for the Greek Freak went around and around, they looked 65 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: at everything, and they said that there's only one team 66 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: outside outside of the land of the Derry. There's only 67 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: one team that Jannis would want to play for. Now, 68 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: if you didn't pay attention to this, you might have 69 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 1: seen it. That one team that would be the New 70 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 1: York Knickerbuckers, the Knicks. That's right, the Knicks, the only team, 71 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:35,840 Speaker 1: their number one, the only one that Jannis is desiring 72 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:41,799 Speaker 1: outside of Milwaukee in the off season. Shams Sharania giving 73 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 1: us the inside skin out. It's skinny. So let us 74 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: discuss the question on this one. How do you process 75 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 1: or process depending where you got your education, how do 76 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 1: you process Giannis Adentakoombo flirting with the Knicks this summer 77 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 1: and this apparently a very real possibility of still happening. 78 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: So I've got Tomlin, Footsie and voiceover work, and we 79 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: will combine all of these things together. Everything together, and 80 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: we're gonna make buttered popcorn. Delicious buttered popcorn is what 81 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: we're going to make. 82 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 3: Me. 83 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really good, really bad for you, but man 84 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 1: does it bad for your teeth. It's bad for your guts, 85 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 1: But man does it smell good and it tastes good. 86 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: So to kick off here the Yannest story. You know 87 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: what it is. Wild fire, it's a wildfire. The Greek freak. 88 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: He's got more than a wandering eye. And this is 89 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: the guy that's changed. I remember years ago, I didn't 90 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: want to play. I remember, be honest. We talked about 91 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: him in monologues, how he didn't want to play in 92 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 1: LA or New York. He didn't want to go to 93 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 1: a big city. He loved that he was in Milwaukee. 94 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: And everything's a little slower in Milwaukee, and it's just 95 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,039 Speaker 1: a nice Midwestern town. You don't have to deal with 96 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: all the fakeness of New York in LA and all 97 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 1: that stuff. And so I guess he wants some gaba ghoul. 98 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 1: He might. I can go hang out in Jersey and 99 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: play for the next live in Jersey. All the gobba 100 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,040 Speaker 1: ghul I want. But the Greek face got, as we say, 101 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: he's got more than a wandering eye on this one. Like, 102 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 1: we're talking about a guy who essentially has told the Bucks. 103 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: The way I understand the story, the way I understand 104 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: the story is Giannis is essentially told the Bucks. Listen, 105 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:24,119 Speaker 1: I am filing for a divorce. I haven't hired a 106 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: divorce attorney yet, but I file. I'm going to file 107 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: for a divorce. I just haven't done the paperwork. And 108 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: that's just the way it is. And and he didn't 109 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 1: do it this privately. The fact that it got out 110 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 1: now was strategic. And I'll tell you what I believe 111 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: that means in a minute. But he aired out his 112 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: dirty laundry through schams Sean. He would have used Woj. 113 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 1: Unfortunately Woj is no longer in the insider business. He 114 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: retired from that. He weaponized the NBA insider. I'm talking 115 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: about gianisident to Koombo as a therapist couch. Tell me 116 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 1: what's wrong today, Okay, I'll tell you what's wrong. And 117 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: then he started talking. All right, And now there's conflicting 118 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: reports here. The one story said this was I believe 119 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: from international media that his wife had relocated to Athens. 120 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: That you know nothing says Hey, I'm committed to a 121 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: team in Wisconsin than enrolling kids into a kindergarten in Greece. 122 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: That's a decent sized commute. I know they have yellow 123 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: school buses. I don't know if they have yellow school planes. 124 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: I don't. I guess Jannis posted something in his native tongue, 125 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: and unfortunately I did not put it into Google Translate, 126 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 1: and I don't speak the native tongue in Greece, so 127 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 1: I don't know exactly what he said, but it appeared 128 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: he said that's not true. But then I didn't really 129 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: answer the question. He talked about being a public figure. 130 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: So there's a lot of stuff going on, and you know, 131 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: it does appear this is more like Aaron Rodgers or 132 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: Lebron James, where you do this kind of passive aggressive stuff, 133 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: the strategic media leaks and whatnot. So my theory on 134 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: the media leaks is that this was attempted internal. I'm 135 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: gonna make my elevator pitch on this. Tell me if 136 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 1: you agree with me on that. So my theory on 137 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,239 Speaker 1: why this came out now is they tried to sort 138 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: this out without it going public, and the Bucks did 139 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: not trade Jannis. He didn't get what he wanted. So 140 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: now he's like, I gotta go back to Bucks training 141 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 1: camp these exhibition games, and so now he's like, all right, 142 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna crank it up a couple of notches like 143 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 1: a celebrity chef and bam, I'm gonna go to Shams 144 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna I'm gonna put it out there and 145 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: and that's it. But it does sound like this has 146 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 1: all the indications of somebody that's already checking out of Milwaukee. 147 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: You know, this guy like I al ready's gonna miss 148 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,319 Speaker 1: training camp with some phantom injury or something like that. 149 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 1: And uh, you know, there's been there has been an 150 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 1: expectation for a good amount of time that Yannis his 151 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 1: days in Milwaukee were number people say always too good 152 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: for He's not gonna last there. And it's not even 153 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 1: whether he wanted to stay in Milwaukee. When you get 154 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 1: to that level of celebrity, there's so many hangars on 155 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 1: that are making their money based on you. They're the caboose. 156 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,679 Speaker 1: You're the locomotive and they're the caboose and they make 157 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: all their money as they are your toadies and your 158 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: posse and all that stuff. And so so that's kind 159 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: of where it was, and so he's like he was 160 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: gonna leave anyway at some point, and he's like, well, 161 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: everyone's pretending it's business as usual. He's gonna go through 162 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 1: the season. Palais poly not business as usual. And Milwaukee's 163 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: sitting there. They were trying to excite the fan base, right, 164 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 1: you hold the balloon up. Oh, we're gonna be good 165 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 1: this year we had we don't have Damian Little but 166 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 1: he's gone. But we're gonna be good. Ever're gonna be fine, 167 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 1: don't worry about that. And then Giannis took a giant 168 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 1: oversized pin. Pop goes the balloon, Pop goes the balloon 169 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: just like that, all right, and popped it. Put the 170 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: pin right in it there just before the season begins. 171 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 1: Not that anyone pays attention to the NBA until like, 172 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, April anyway, everyone on their phones waiting now, 173 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 1: waiting for the other shoe to drop. And as Mike 174 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: Tomlin so famously said in Pittsburgh years ago, he said, 175 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 1: we want volunteers, not hostages. And so the Bucks ultimately 176 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: have no choice. It is the player empowerment era in sports, 177 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 1: and especially in basketball. They run the show. That's why 178 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: the regular season is unwatchable. The players just don't care. 179 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: It's a terrible product, and that's because of the player empowerment. 180 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: But anyway, nonetheless, so he wants out, and okay, he's 181 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 1: gonna get what he wants. The Bucks have no choice. 182 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 1: You can't keep a superstar who's mailing it in and 183 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: you either get ahead of it or you get left 184 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 1: holding the bag. What's in the bag? Nothing, It's an 185 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:48,960 Speaker 1: empty bag. You're holding an empty bag. You're a dummy, 186 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 1: You're holding an empty bag. So Yannis lit the fuse 187 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 1: and he out now. Furthermore, the New York state of 188 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,319 Speaker 1: Mind is an interesting part of this story. At the 189 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 1: New York state of Mind, So the question is should 190 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 1: the Knickerbockers bite the cheese? Should they bite the cheese 191 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:12,559 Speaker 1: and make a deal for the Greek free He wants 192 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 1: to play there, and they already have a team that's 193 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 1: pretty good, not championship level, but close with Jalen Brunson. 194 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 1: Would Jalen Brunson and Giannis work well together? Can you 195 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: trade everything else? And would you? Would you even really 196 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 1: have to trade everything else? Could you keep a good 197 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 1: chunk of the team? I keep a good chunk of 198 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: the team and then just trade. You know, they don't 199 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,439 Speaker 1: have any draft picks, so that's the issue. And these 200 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: teams love, they get all horny for the draft picks. 201 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 1: They get all excited for that. That's the that's about. 202 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 1: But in terms of the question, should the Knicks make 203 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,079 Speaker 1: the deal for Giannis, Uh, yeah, I'm gonna nod my 204 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: head yes, I'm nodding my head yes on this. Why not? 205 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: And he's already played foot seed publicly with you, and 206 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 1: when you play foot sea in public, you got to 207 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: go to that next level there and you hang out. 208 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 1: I'm not sure whether he's given the bedroom eyes to 209 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,199 Speaker 1: the Wall Street tycoons, the robber barons of business there 210 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 1: in New York. You can have a garden party with 211 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 1: Spike Lee. So the Knicks, they can cobble together a 212 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 1: trade offer. It's not even great. They can cobble together 213 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: a trade offer. And as I was told by a 214 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 1: sports executive many years ago, he said, Ben, some of 215 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: these deals we make are because we're in show business. 216 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: They're not great sports trades, but they're for show business 217 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 1: and we're in the entertainment business. And so if it's 218 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 1: show business down there, then it's not show friends, it's 219 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: show business and all that. You honest, would be a 220 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: headliner on Broadway and they'd sell out. Not that they 221 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: need to sell tickets. No matter how bad the Knicks are, 222 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: They've always sold out Madison Square Garden. So he's a 223 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 1: global icon and all that stuff. But let's not pretend 224 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: that whether it's the Knicks or the Warriors or whoever Giannis, 225 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 1: it's not all pa and cream, even though that's the 226 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: Cream City, It's not all peaches and cream with you. 227 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: I know, why isn't that? Because even though he's got 228 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,319 Speaker 1: all of these accolades, and he's won a championship, and 229 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,559 Speaker 1: he's got all these big awards and all that stuff, 230 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: let's not pretend that his skill set is not lacking 231 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: some parts of it which are piecemeal. You're not supposed 232 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 1: to say that is still not a great foul shooter, 233 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: barf City. On the foul shooting, his jump shot is inconsistent, unpredictable, 234 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: and will often break your heart. And he continues to 235 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 1: live off the overwhelming gift from the gods that he 236 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: was given with his athleticism and a tremendous drive, fire 237 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: in his belly will power, and that works when you're 238 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: twenty five or twenty six or twenty seven. Once you 239 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: get in your thirties at that level, going down to 240 00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 1: the YMCA, you'll do pretty good, right, And so that's 241 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: where we are. Something something's going to give here soon. 242 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: These things normally don't linger very long in the NBA. 243 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:12,199 Speaker 1: All right, last thing, we now go to the Kingdom. 244 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 1: That's right, the Kingdom. So some of you were upset. 245 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 1: I mentioned this in a previous episode of the show. 246 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: Some of you sending me nasty emails. We are you 247 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 1: not talking about Lebron James, the greatest NBA player of 248 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: all time, and he's about to retire and you're not 249 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 1: going to talk about it. I don't understand. Well, buddy, 250 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: you call yourself a sports talk show host. Okay, Yeah, 251 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 1: So Lebron sent out some posts on social media. It 252 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 1: was going to be decision two point oh. This became 253 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 1: a big talking point. He teased the big announcement for 254 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 1: a day on social media and there it was right there. 255 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: It was the big announcement early in the day, and 256 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: it happened while I was sleeping, And what was the decision? Well, 257 00:14:55,320 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 1: it turns out that the aging, aging Lebron James his 258 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: latest decision was in fact a commercial now the ad. 259 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 1: I don't know how much Labron got paid for, but 260 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 1: he parodied the twenty ten decision when he left Cleveland 261 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: to go to Miami. That was so insane. I was 262 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: at a Dodger game that night. They put it on 263 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: the scoreboard. They stopped batting practice in twenty ten at 264 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:31,479 Speaker 1: Dodger Stadium to put on the scoreboard Lebron James announcement. 265 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 1: But anyway, this was an advertisement for liquor. Yeah, so 266 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 1: they wanted to promote the liquor. If they want us 267 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 1: to promote the liquor, we have a sales department. I'm 268 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 1: not giving out free commercials. So if they want do 269 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: enough commercials. So if they want to buy a spot, 270 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: we'll be happy to name the product and do all that. Otherwise, 271 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 1: go pound sand We're in the advertising business here. So 272 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: the question is, what is your verdict? What is your 273 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 1: verdict on Lebron james retirement only to sell you booze? 274 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: So do we have a new nickname here? The bartender? 275 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 1: Is that his new nickname? The bartender? 276 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 3: Is that? 277 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 1: No? Okay? So he teased retirement knowing that there's a 278 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: lot of delicate little flower fans and he's just slinging firewater, 279 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 1: is what he's doing. Okay, And of course the worst 280 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 1: part is the gullible fanboys fell for it, hook line 281 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 1: and sinker. The global fanboys they did. You had the 282 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: secondary market. The Lakers last home game in the regular 283 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: season is against the Utah Jazz. Okay, the Jazz are unwatchable. 284 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: They're horrific. There's no reason to watch the Utah Jazz 285 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: play basketball. They are just bad all the way through, 286 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: just a terrible product. And so imagine how bad they're 287 00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 1: going to be at the end of the season. Once youon, 288 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: they play half the year, trade whoever's good on the team, 289 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 1: and then they just played direk the rest of the year. 290 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 1: So people lined up drove up the price of tickets 291 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 1: on the secondary market. It's the old pump and dump situation. 292 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 1: And yeah, and when I say pump it up, these 293 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 1: tickets went from eighty two dollars to five hundred and 294 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 1: eighty dollars because Lebron teased the fact that he was 295 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,680 Speaker 1: supposed to retire and he was going to play the Jazz, 296 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 1: which are like a traveling AAU team, and that was it. 297 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: So this is essentially Lebron what he's doing here, he's 298 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 1: doing voiceover work like justin Timberlake in that movie The Trolls, 299 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 1: Remember the movie Trolls. Back in the day, King James 300 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: is trolling his own fan base. Now, normally they tell 301 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: you not to do that. They say that's a bad 302 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,679 Speaker 1: thing and you offend the customer. You're not supposed to 303 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 1: do that. It's bad job by But he did it 304 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:02,399 Speaker 1: for clicks and for bottle sales. Is he a bottle 305 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: girl now too? Is that what he's doing? So very cringey, 306 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: very cynical. But the ethos of Lebron James, is it not? 307 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,439 Speaker 1: Like when you think of the greatest hits album of 308 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:18,200 Speaker 1: Lebron James, there are so many. Doing a talk show 309 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 1: his entire career, going back to the time he showed 310 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:25,679 Speaker 1: up with the autobiography of Malcolm X and was asked 311 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: about the book and Lebron gave us the uh, you know. 312 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:32,959 Speaker 1: He was asked, what do you know about Malcolm X? 313 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:37,639 Speaker 1: And he said, well, he's just a very powerful man.
