1
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:07,200
Speaker 1: People always say you'll never regret going on a run.

2
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:09,360
Speaker 1: So here's a list of runs that I deeply regret

3
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:11,200
Speaker 1: going on. The time I peed and they were was

4
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:13,360
Speaker 1: long before dawn and then they turned on the front lights.

5
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:15,920
Speaker 1: The time I went running in a windstorm, rainstorm, snowstorm,

6
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:19,240
Speaker 1: flood watch post hauling any day over ninety degrees pretty

7
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:20,960
Speaker 1: much eighty percent of the year. The time I went

8
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:22,520
Speaker 1: running with my boyfriend and he broke up with me

9
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:24,120
Speaker 1: halfway through the run and it was an out and back.

10
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 1: The time I pooped in the woods on Poison Oak,

11
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 1: the time I pooped in the woods on Poison IVY,

12
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:29,319
Speaker 1: all of the runs I've listened to crime podcasts on

13
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 1: and the entire time I'm like this. There was one

14
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:33,919
Speaker 1: time that I had beats the night before I ran,

15
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 1: and then I spent my entire run thinking that I

16
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:38,160
Speaker 1: was dying from internal bleeding. I regret all of those,

17
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,600
Speaker 1: and then so I'm actually regarding this one right now,

18
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:41,919
Speaker 1: so I think I'm gonna go home.

19

00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 2: we get into the NBA trade deadline winners and losers,

73
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 2: we had a weggie last night. There was basketball on

74
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 2: two games and this one it was the combined powers

75
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 2: of Jonathan Isaac and Michael Porter junr. Who gave us

76
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 2: the weggie. You know, Isaac attacking the rim, Michael Porter

77
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 2: Junior going for the block from behind. He fouls them though,

78
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 2: and we get the weggie. They're nice close up shot.

79
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 2: I guess that. I mean, this is one of those

80
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 2: ones who do you give it to it?

81
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 3: Oh? Michael Porter Junior. Yeah, but he made it happen.

82
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 2: It's just but it only happened because Isaac was Yeah.

83
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 3: Well, so it's so good because it's great passing and

84
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 3: also a guy not known for defense, Michael Porter Junior

85
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 3: get back for a block. Slash fowl. Did you have

86
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 3: to call him for a foul.

87
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 2: So love to see who Wedgie Tracker dot Com gave

88
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,280
Speaker 2: that one too. I'll look it up right this second.

89
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 2: Uh oh, the very rare Isaac and Porter getting credit

90
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 2: on the website.

91
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 3: I can't wait to drink one of those in Salt

92
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 3: Lake City. And Isaac Porter sounds delicious.

93
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 2: This guy. All he talks about is the food and

94
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 2: drinks he's going to consume in Salt Lakes.

95
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,840
Speaker 3: I am going to have a burrito in Salt Lake City.

96
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, we're going to what is it called red

97
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 4: Iguana or something? Yes, I think that's what it's called.

98
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 4: People are recommending it very heavily. Okay, So I love alured.

99
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 2: Do we need to make a reservation? I mean it's

100
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 2: gonna be a bumping there in sult Lakes.

101
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,280
Speaker 4: You are looking up Weggie Tracker. I will check that

102
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 4: out to make sure we can get in here, all right.

103
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,039
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, I think it's safe to say, guys that

104
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:04,039
Speaker 2: the NBA trade deadline it lived up to the frenzied hype.

105
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 2: Wow yesterday. I mean we had a lot of trades.

106
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 2: According to Kevin Pelton, the Machine in the final twenty

107
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 2: four hours before the deadline, we had sixteen trades involving

108
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 2: forty nine players and twenty five teams, and I think

109
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 2: this is right one thousand and one second round picks.

110
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 2: So let's break down the winners and losers of the

111
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,839
Speaker 2: NBA trade deadline task. Get us started. Who's your big

112
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 2: winner from not only yesterday, but you know the entire

113
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 2: really trade deadline week, if you want to call it that.

114
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 3: Let's go west, the Western Conference just bonkers and the

115
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,799
Speaker 3: Phoenix Suns in Brooklyn Nets. I just love the trade

116
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 3: for Kevin Durant because you can't go for it more

117
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,479
Speaker 3: than the Phoenix Suns did by going for Durant, but

118
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 3: it also gutted their team. You know, it cost them

119
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:50,119
Speaker 3: a lot, so they had to pay up and trade

120
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 3: mcel Bridges and Cam Johnson and four first round picks,

121
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,039
Speaker 3: not second round picks, real first round picks, and a

122
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 3: pick swap a plus J. Crowder for Kevin Durant. You

123
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:00,920
Speaker 3: just can't go more all in than that. It looked

124
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 3: like their championship window was closing. I mean it was,

125
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,599
Speaker 3: it was almost there. It was almost closed. It was

126
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 3: right there. And then matt Isshubia, a new owner, drammed

127
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 3: it open. That thing is a jar it's propped open

128
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,119
Speaker 3: now for at least a couple of years.

129
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 2: Hey, luckily, Kevin Durant's very thin.

130
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:19,279
Speaker 4: Matter what.

131
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that guy just Kevin Durant. I think if

132
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 3: you're an impartial basketball fan, like if you're a partial

133
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 3: if you're a Warriors guy, you know, some some people

134
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 3: Warriors fans, some people hate him. I understand that. I guess,

135
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 3: you know, because he left. But if this guy is

136
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 3: at the peak of his powers, he's one of the

137
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 3: best players ever in the game. And I think some

138
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,719
Speaker 3: even me, getting into these trades, I kind of just

139
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 3: forget that he is having his best season here in

140
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 3: year sixteen. That's not hyperbole. The dude is having his

141
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 3: best year. Fifty six from the floor, that's an incredible percentage,

142
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 3: thirty eight from the three point line and ninety three

143
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,360
Speaker 3: from the free throw line, seventy eight percent from the rim,

144
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 3: like he is perfect. I'm not even gonna get into

145
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 3: his true shooting numbers, even though it's a sexy number.

146
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 3: It's just him. Booker CP three. How DeAndre Ayten's gonna

147
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 3: handle that is interesting. The whole wing rotation there is interesting.

148
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,239
Speaker 3: They went and got Darius Baisley as well, just because

149
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 3: they need wing defenders, so a big athletic body. Because

150
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 3: they're old. Those guys that I mentioned, they're getting older,

151
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 3: so they just got a little bit younger by trading.

152
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 3: Trading Dario Sharz to Oka See for Darius Baisley, maybe

153
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 3: they're going to go on the buyout market. They also

154
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 3: got TJ. Warren. But the Nets are also winners because

155
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 3: of how they handled the Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant

156
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 3: scenario in that they got a lot for those two players, right,

157
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 3: you can't really get more when you look at both

158
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 3: those scenarios. So I just love this trade. It's like

159
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 3: it's it's a heavyweight fight you whatever you want to

160
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 3: call it, whatever analogy you want to use. It just

161
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 3: feels like two teams going in different directions, but both

162
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 3: had to step up and put a lot on the line.

163
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 4: You don't see a guy who's like a top five

164
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 4: player in the league traded in the middle of the

165
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 4: season and all that often. There's a ton of pressure

166
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 4: now on the Suns to win and to I would say,

167
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 4: at least get back to the conference finals this season.

168
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 4: It's a little bit of a big ass considering there's

169
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,679
Speaker 4: four guarantees on this team. It's they're four stars right now,

170
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 4: and then everything after that is kind of a question mark.

171
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 4: You mentioned asks that they gutted their team. It was

172
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 4: Hawk's Suns last night. I was out after playing pickup ball,

173
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 4: had the game on a Phoenix Sun went to the

174
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 4: free throw line. People I was there with Who is

175
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 4: that guy?

176
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 3: Who?

177
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 4: Do you think it was?

178
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 3: Isaiah Wayne Wright?

179
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 4: Ish Wayne Wright?

180
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 7: Sorry, Dwayne Washington, Nope, nope, those are good ones. It

181
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 7: was Jock Landale Jack Landale at the line. But that

182
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 7: is going to be the question for the Suns at

183
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 7: this point. They don't got a lot of depth.

184
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 4: They're surely going to be active on the buyout market

185
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 4: once that comes around. And then injury concerns. Booker has

186
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,559
Speaker 4: missed time this season, but he's usually pretty reliable. Chris

187
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 4: Paul at this stage in his career, it's just a

188
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 4: question of when more so than if. And Kevin Durant

189
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 4: has missed big chunks of time though usually for big

190
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 4: guys rolling into his legs. So as long as DeAndre

191
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,079
Speaker 4: Ayton ain't tumbling over, maybe he'll be fine. I hope

192
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 4: Tory Craig is ready for this because he is going

193
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 4: to be taking a lot of wide open shots because

194
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 4: you'll do anything to have him be the guy that's

195
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 4: shooting the ball rather than a dunk from Eton or

196
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 4: any of the mid range dudes hitting for the Suns.

197
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 4: They're at least in the upper echelon of the Western Conference.

198
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 4: We got to see what it looks like and who's

199
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 4: healthy come playoff time to know if they're one of

200
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 4: the favorites. But they're more of a favorite than they

201
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 4: were before they traded for Kevin Durant because it was

202
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 4: over for the Suns. They had the window closed, they

203
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 4: just hadn't locked it yet.

204
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. It was sort of perfect timing right

205
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 2: here when you think about it, because you have Kyrie

206
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 2: excuse me last week saying I don't want to be

207
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 2: here anymore, and he gets moved, and then that follows

208
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,439
Speaker 2: with Kad probably saying the same thing, all right, move me.

209
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 2: So there's that, there's the opportunity to get a player

210
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 2: of that level. There's the new owner syndrome, obviously, with

211
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 2: Matt Ishbia coming in, let's make a splash, you move.

212
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 2: I would even add to it that the Suns playing

213
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,200
Speaker 2: well recently before last night and Obviously before the trade,

214
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 2: they had won nine of their last eleven games. They

215
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:11,839
Speaker 2: had a pretty good like sort of net rating over

216
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 2: that stretch that had got them back up into the

217
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,200
Speaker 2: mix of things in the Western Conference. So I think

218
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 2: that helped. I wonder if it's like this move's even made,

219
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 2: if you know, they go two to nine instead of

220
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 2: nine to eleven over that stretch there and you're sort

221
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:27,839
Speaker 2: of just way out of it. I think that helped

222
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:31,199
Speaker 2: the chances. But I loved here that we saw a

223
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 2: lot of Western Conference teams. They made marginal updates, they

224
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,440
Speaker 2: slapped some singles, maybe a double down the line. But

225
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 2: New Sun's owner in Matteshbia comes in here, he literally

226
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 2: like points to the bleachers like he's Babe Ruth and

227
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 2: Crank's a five hundred foot bomb. Now we're gonna find

228
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 2: out if it's stayed fair or not. We'll see what

229
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 2: happens here. If they can be healthy, but it could

230
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 2: be a Grand Slam. And it was that thing where

231
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 2: they looked at the landscape of the West and they

232
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 2: said it is for the taking. You know, if we

233
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 2: can get an elite to pair with Booker and Chris

234
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,719
Speaker 2: Paul and Ayton and then hopefully have enough. It's a

235
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,839
Speaker 2: risk still, but one like a team that's never won

236
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 2: a championship should take. It's there are a lot of differences,

237
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,199
Speaker 2: but if you think about the Raptors and the move

238
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 2: they make for Kawhi Leonard, obviously an elite player, didn't

239
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 2: take as much at that because of the whole injury

240
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 2: with him in that, but they went for it because

241
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:23,560
Speaker 2: they're like, well, we might as well just go for it,

242
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:25,959
Speaker 2: and that's what the Suns are doing here and we'll

243
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 2: see if it pays off.

244
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 3: Sure, they made it finals, and it definitely looked like

245
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 3: that it was over in terms of just that iteration

246
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 3: of the team, and that's why it was exciting for

247
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 3: us here at the Western Conference. He said, a lot

248
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 3: of teams went for it. These guys right at the top,

249
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,959
Speaker 3: they're kind of starting with an obstacle in that Ken

250
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:49,599
Speaker 3: Durant isn't healthy right now. So yeah, they're going to

251
00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,520
Speaker 3: be fewer than twenty games for them to get it

252
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,719
Speaker 3: going before the postseason once he is healthy. So the

253
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 3: Nuggets are the favorite right now, but I think if

254
00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 3: they go sign Isaiah wayIn Wright off the buyout market,

255
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 3: they'll be all right. Isaiah way right. It's not a player, yeah,

256
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 3: Ish male Wayne right, Isaiah's Ishmaels. Get them all mixed up?

257
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 3: Ish Smith is still on a roster. Why isn't he

258
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 3: playing more? Anyway?

259
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,440
Speaker 2: Wild thing with this new owner here too. You know,

260
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,959
Speaker 2: in the moves they make here, they increased Phoenix's luxury

261
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 2: tax bill by about sixteen millions sixteen million. SARV took

262
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 2: control of the team in two thousand and four. The

263
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 2: Suns paid the tax just three times in seventeen seasons.

264
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 2: That was sort of his thing. And the fifty million

265
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 2: dollars in taxes they're gonna pay this year is nearly

266
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 2: four times the total under Sarver combined again, showed it

267
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 2: to Pelton for breaking down the numbers there and just

268
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:41,800
Speaker 2: puts it in perspective here.

269
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 5: You know, SARV was a cheapskate.

270
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 2: Now you could also say they didn't have the team

271
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 2: to like really go in to luxury tax and all that,

272
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,200
Speaker 2: but that was his thing. You've got this new owner

273
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 2: in here, and he says, come on, call them back,

274
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 2: call the nets back. We don't want John Collins, Wait,

275
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 2: you want Kevin Durant. I don't care how many picks.

276
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 2: It's gonna take our GM hates picks anyway in Joan,

277
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:04,719
Speaker 2: So yeah, I can't wait. This is gonna be a

278
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 2: lot of fun here down the stretch and into the

279
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,240
Speaker 2: playoffs to see how this works for the Suns. Let's

280
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:09,839
Speaker 2: keep it going though. Who you got for a winner?

281
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 4: Honestly, I gotta give you a winner right now, Skeets.

282
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 4: That was an incredible baseball annow you came through there.

283
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 4: It was like multi level, like five hundred foot bomb.

284
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 4: That's good enough. Is it fair or foul? We'll see

285
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 4: a Grand Slam. So big ed up for Skeatzy to

286
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 4: start off the podcast. Hot right here. I'm loving it.

287
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,559
Speaker 4: I'm giving a win to the city of Los Angeles.

288
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 4: I think both LA teams got better. Originally I was

289
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,439
Speaker 4: gonna start with the Lakers, but we always start with

290
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,439
Speaker 4: the Lakers, So let's talk about the Clippers. I think

291
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:43,680
Speaker 4: they improved. They sent out a bunch of guys you know,

292
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 4: and got back other guys you know. That's kind of

293
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 4: what it went like, right and the Clippers are still

294
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,559
Speaker 4: gonna be a deep team with sort of reliable guys

295
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 4: or at least options. They brought in Eric Gordon, they

296
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 4: got Bones Island they got Mason Plumley. All of those

297
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 4: guys are gonna play for their team. Gordon is basically

298
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 4: a Luke Kennard replacement. He drives a little more, he's older,

299
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 4: but his contract is a little bit shorter, probably a

300
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,680
Speaker 4: wash all things considered. Bones is more of an upside

301
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 4: play than anything. Cost them two second round picks, so

302
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,679
Speaker 4: definitely worth a roll of the dice. And Mason Plumley

303
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 4: is going to basically be what Isaiah Hartenstein was last season,

304
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 4: a rim roller and not a little bit of a

305
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 4: passer as well. They just needed another backup big behind

306
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 4: Zoobots there. Also pretty impressive. I think that the Clippers

307
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 4: were able to keep Terrence Man in all of these deals. Yeah,

308
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 4: so maybe just a little bit of shuffling of the

309
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 4: names that are there, but I think they got a

310
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 4: little bit better and addressed some areas of concern. As

311
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 4: for the Lakers, they've got a team now, I think

312
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 4: is the most important thing. Ruy Hachimura, D'Angelo Russell, Malik Beasley,

313
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 4: Jared Vanderbilt, Mo Bamba. That's a rotation of guys who

314
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 4: would win fifteen games in an NBA season. But as

315
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 4: John Hollinger said, the Lakers probably had the worst three

316
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 4: through fifteen in the league, and they no longer have

317
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 4: the worst three through fifteen in the league. They're younger,

318
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 4: a little bit more athletic, they've got more shooting, they

319
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 4: got a couple of defenders. They were able to hang

320
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 4: onto that pick in twenty twenty nine, so didn't completely

321
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 4: punt on the future. Even the twenty twenty seven pick

322
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 4: is one through four protected. They've got more flexibility going

323
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 4: forward with their contracts. I don't think they're a championship

324
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:20,400
Speaker 4: contender at all, but they're a playoff contender. I think

325
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 4: this will make Lebron happy. Hopefully he plays. Hopefully Anthony

326
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 4: Davis is good as well. Because the Lakers have to

327
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 4: finish sixteen to ten to finish five hundred, which would

328
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 4: put them at ninth or tenth in the Western Conference.

329
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 4: So they're gonna have to get healthy, they're gonna have

330
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:37,920
Speaker 4: to get on the court, and they're gonna have to

331
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 4: get on the same page immediately just to make it

332
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 4: to the playoffs. But at least now you're gonna maybe

333
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 4: probably make the playoffs rather than having Lebron request a

334
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 4: trade in the summer.

335
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, the play internament should be the absolute bare minimum

336
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 3: that they're going for. And because you know, the Utah's

337
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 3: fallen off the table here Portland to some degree, they

338
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 3: should make it in. But I think that's the ceiling,

339
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 3: and that's the thing Los Angeles says. Definitely, the Lakers

340
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,520
Speaker 3: have definitely got better. They definitely have got better, all

341
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 3: those guys more of a team.

342
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 2: This is what they should have done. But obviously heading

343
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 2: into this.

344
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then may be a little too little, too

345
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 3: late at this point here because they have to go

346
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 3: sixteen to ten because AD's not really carrying the team.

347
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 3: Because Lebron sits out the game after he breaks the record,

348
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 3: he's not going to get fresher as the year goes on.

349
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 3: He's in and out of the lineup a bit. So

350
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 3: the chemistry I think is a bit of a worry. Look,

351
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 3: the chemistry was pretty decent, even if these reports about

352
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:39,000
Speaker 3: Russell Westbrook. Honestly, I think it was fine. They were

353
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 3: trying hard, they were working hard. Now they're entering the

354
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 3: D'Angelo Russell face and I'll get to the chemistry that

355
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 3: he had with his Minnesota Timberwolves teammates where that was lacking. So, yes,

356
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 3: the post Lebron future looks a little bit better, but

357
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 3: this season it's a first round exit to me at

358
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 3: the very best get in through the play in tournament.

359
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 3: So yeah, we can be excited about it, for sure.

360
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 3: But the West just is so good. And I think

361
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 3: the Clippers are an example. They started ahead of the

362
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 3: Lakers going into the trade deadline, they got better. A

363
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 3: lot of the teams got better.

364
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:13,679
Speaker 2: I can't gloss over the fact that you said or

365
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,439
Speaker 2: thought that the chemistry with Russell Westbrook was good with

366
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 2: the Lakers, because by all reports, that's a bullfaced lie

367
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 2: that they were probably selling to us. This was from

368
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 2: These are three lines from just the Athletic article yesterday.

369
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 2: The Lakers believe there is an addition by subtraction element

370
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 2: with Westbrook. Two sources describe the situation as toxic, showed

371
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 2: it to Britney Spears and Lakers coaches had grown frustrated

372
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 2: with Westbrook's recent behavior. On top of that Athletic article,

373
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:45,120
Speaker 2: we had Dave mcmanhamon even Keel Dave they call him

374
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,919
Speaker 2: basically saying no one's called him that, basically saying that

375
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:52,919
Speaker 2: his sources said Westbrook was a vampire, basically sucking the

376
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,919
Speaker 2: life out of that team. The joy from that squad.

377
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 2: That's a lot. Now, is he just being made to

378
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,160
Speaker 2: be the scapegoat totally?

379
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:04,159
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, yes, exactly like every time there's just a

380
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 3: bad team.

381
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 2: Both can be true. Westbrook can be a real pain

382
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 2: in the ass or maybe not fun to be around,

383
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,360
Speaker 2: and you can also be making him escapegoating.

384
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, well they're right, they I mean, he wasn't the problem.

385
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,160
Speaker 3: That's all I have to say. Yes, yes, as soon

386
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 3: as a guy is traded, he's the worst. He went

387
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 3: to the bench, he played, He's an MVP, went to

388
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 3: the bench, did his part. He wasn't great at it,

389
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 3: even though people want to give him the six man.

390
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 3: I mean he's going from six man to air quotes vampire.

391
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 3: I think that's just a why.

392
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:42,200
Speaker 2: And talk more about the locker room vibes in chemistry

393
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 2: more than anyone I know in the podcast game. So

394
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 2: he can go out and deliver. He can deliver solid numbers,

395
00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,480
Speaker 2: lean into the roll off the bench. He was the

396
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 2: favorite to win six Man of the Year according to Vegas.

397
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 2: But you can do all that, but if he is,

398
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 2: if he is like just a Debbie Downer and people,

399
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:05,120
Speaker 2: especially Lebron, Let's be honest here, hate being around them

400
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,479
Speaker 2: and the coaching staff and all that. Like, those can

401
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 2: both be true too, and that can have an effect

402
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:10,400
Speaker 2: on your team.

403
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 3: They're twenty six or twenty five and thirty with Russell Westbrook,

404
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 3: I can sit here and say they weren't gonna be better.

405
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:20,359
Speaker 3: You know, without him, they.

406
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 2: Can't prove that he was there and win some games.

407
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 3: Well, what they did we start last night, It wasn't

408
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 3: Russell's fault. What they did was in Russell Beasley, Vanderbilt,

409
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:33,679
Speaker 3: Bamba Ruey, Davon Reid out, Yeah, Westbrook, Beverly Bryant, and

410
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 3: other guys who just weren't playing. So they got better.

411
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 3: I mean, of course they should be better. Will they

412
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,720
Speaker 3: be better? Who knows? To some degree they got rotation players.

413
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,120
Speaker 3: But you know, the chemistry I don't think is going

414
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 3: to be I mean, it's gonna be a question. I

415
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 3: don't think it's gonna be worse to be in all honesty,

416
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:54,160
Speaker 3: but it's just it's just it's just dirty.

417
00:19:54,480 --> 00:20:01,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, No guy.

418
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 3: Extra, I I the guy, this guy here in the

419
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:10,160
Speaker 3: podcast game. No one else respects Christina Aguilera.

420
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 2: More than I believe that.

421
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 3: Just because she didn't dance on an airplane, and in

422
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:21,120
Speaker 3: a stewardest outfit. She was not respected the same way.

423
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 6: I mean, if you watch the dirty video, I don't

424
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:26,119
Speaker 6: know that you really could like throw in, just like

425
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 6: she did not do.

426
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:30,280
Speaker 5: Her to.

427
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 3: Get into a wild Christina, give me the oral history

428
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 3: of that video. I forget that, just like she gets dirty,

429
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 3: very dirty.

430
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 6: No, I'm just more curious, like as the top podcaster

431
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 6: from Christina Aguilera fandom, what's her best song?

432
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,440
Speaker 3: Great question? Well, can you give me a few of them?

433
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 3: And I'll tell you just give me give me the rouge?

434
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 3: Yeah you oh oh yeah, yeah.

435
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 6: I thought you meant like mulan. Also, because she has

436
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:11,639
Speaker 6: like reflection, I think.

437
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 3: What else you got? Dirty? Dirty model.

438
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 6: That's a classic what a girl wants.

439
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:24,239
Speaker 2: It's better than all of these.

440
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:27,160
Speaker 5: Okay, that's a pretty good song.

441
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:31,520
Speaker 3: You named three songs. Obviously those are all better than

442
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 3: every Brittany song.

443
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,399
Speaker 2: Jesus, you know you're talking about it.

444
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:35,439
Speaker 3: She's got range.

445
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:37,440
Speaker 2: You're talking about a better singer.

446
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 3: Of course, she's a better singer.

447
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:42,679
Speaker 6: But not necessarily better songs.

448
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:47,159
Speaker 3: Well, okay, all credits to Brittany for writing those songs. Anyway,

449
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:48,920
Speaker 3: This is a basketball podcast.

450
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:50,879
Speaker 5: That's not another podcast.

451
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 3: Anyways, Okay, let's bury Russell Westbrook. Let's just bury the guy.

452
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 3: He went to the bench, he played his ass off,

453
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 3: he played his minutes, He didn't leave the court in

454
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 3: a time mattered. The other day he had an altercation

455
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 3: with Darvin Ham kill him. I mean, I just think

456
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:07,159
Speaker 3: it's a little unfortunate.

457
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,400
Speaker 2: I was playing. I was playing a little devil's out

458
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 2: to get there. Because I agree with you. That was

459
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 2: really weird yesterday. That weird. They went really all in

460
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,800
Speaker 2: on saying it was all him. It was all him.

461
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 2: Nobody's happy because of him. We sucked because of him.

462
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,600
Speaker 2: But by the way, you also wanted him and brought

463
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:27,760
Speaker 2: him in, so I guess you'll learn your lesson. I mean,

464
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 2: I'm talking Lebron here. He was an advocate for the

465
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:33,159
Speaker 2: Westbrook trade. Obviously they the front office does it in

466
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,720
Speaker 2: the end, so they thought they could save them.

467
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:37,679
Speaker 3: It was weird. I don't think I was good.

468
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:38,920
Speaker 6: Vibes on the team.

469
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:41,400
Speaker 4: Who, yeah, like, who who is the.

470
00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 6: Player that's actually bringing the good vibes if we're just

471
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 6: get a.

472
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 3: Time Austin reeves. Everybody loves that guy. But but in

473
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,160
Speaker 3: terms of minutes played and why they're five games under

474
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,880
Speaker 3: five hundred. Anthony Davis has missed a ton of time.

475
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 3: Other guys they signed off the scrap heap in thirdeen

476
00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,720
Speaker 3: minutes played as Dennis Shrewder. Austin Reeves barely had a job.

477
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 3: Lonnie Walker was given to them by the San Antonio

478
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,040
Speaker 3: I mean sorry, he was let go by the Spurs.

479
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 4: That's their team.

480
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 3: So they're five games leutter five.

481
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 2: Because they gutted their team in trading for Westbrook. They

482
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 2: gave away a lot of players at least that you

483
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,440
Speaker 2: would have been playing otherwise. And it's their own fault.

484
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,680
Speaker 3: And he played fifty two games this year. He played

485
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 3: a lot. I mean he was out there giving it

486
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 3: as all. Anyway, Clippers, just quick notes, if they go

487
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:33,120
Speaker 3: get Russell Westbrook because that is interesting now, I would

488
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 3: say that would be a mistake because why because they

489
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 3: just sucks.

490
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,679
Speaker 4: Is a vampire? Don't breaking a vampire to your locker? Ridiculous?

491
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 3: Best vampire?

492
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 4: Oh I got If we're talking best vamps, Dracula's overrated.

493
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 4: Everyone knows it.

494
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 3: Nice. I agree. Anyway, they just they just they got

495
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 3: it their betch, So they got a new betch. Eric

496
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,720
Speaker 3: Gordon's there, who's gonna be handling the ball. Bones is

497
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,159
Speaker 3: gonna shoot a lot. You're gonna bring Westbrook just to

498
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 3: just throwing another guy who needs to handle the ball.

499
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:15,440
Speaker 3: You're just gonna be taking away from those two guys

500
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 3: in air Court and Bones. It doesn't really make sense.

501
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 3: I hope they don't. It just doesn't make sense.

502
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 2: Let's get to another winner here. That was a fun tangent, though.

503
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 2: I'm gonna give Jay Crowder a winner of the trade

504
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,160
Speaker 2: deadline in addition to the Bucks. But Jay crowder Man,

505
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,440
Speaker 2: this guy sits out the entire season because he lost

506
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:36,119
Speaker 2: his starting spot to Cam Johnson. Eventually gets shipped to Brooklyn,

507
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,119
Speaker 2: a part of the KD trade with Cam Johnson is

508
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,160
Speaker 2: my favorite part of all that. But then is sent

509
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:44,359
Speaker 2: a few hours later to the Milwaukee Bucks, and he

510
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 2: is pumped. That's a market guy back in the Milwaukee area,

511
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 2: tweeting out cut off my finger to save my hand

512
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 2: ninety nine back again. He is obviously ecstatic where he landed.

513
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:58,960
Speaker 2: He wants to try and win a championship. So he's

514
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:02,920
Speaker 2: here in Milwaukee. We are already talked about that them

515
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 2: the Bucks getting Crowder here compares to the Bucks acquiring PJ.

516
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 2: Tucker in twenty one. You did so on one of

517
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 2: the podcasts yesterday. A lot of people will make that

518
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 2: comparison makes some sense. I would also like to add

519
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 2: that there's some possibly some Al Horford vibes to this,

520
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 2: where he took off three quarters of a season in

521
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 2: OKC before being dealt to the Celtics and then was

522
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 2: very instrumental in helping them get to the finals here

523
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:32,159
Speaker 2: and obviously still with Boston and they'll try and do

524
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:35,479
Speaker 2: it again. Al Horford is a better player than Jane Crowder,

525
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:38,280
Speaker 2: but maybe that time off as a guy getting up

526
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 2: there in age helps him out here. So I like

527
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:42,760
Speaker 2: this move and Jay Crowder, I don't see how he's

528
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 2: not a winner because this guy's in Milwaukee now. They've

529
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:48,120
Speaker 2: won ninth straight, which is going completely under the radar

530
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:51,160
Speaker 2: because what's been going on here right with the trade

531
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:54,680
Speaker 2: devil hie these big blockbuster deals, the East gets weaker.

532
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 2: They don't have to worry about having to beat a

533
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:01,639
Speaker 2: KDI team, So I go mill here. They must be

534
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 2: pretty ecstatic.

535
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 3: The difference is with Al Horford is that he took

536
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 3: his rest at the end of a season and played

537
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,200
Speaker 3: the entire season for the Celtics before going in the playoffs,

538
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:14,880
Speaker 3: So hopefully Jake Crowder is feeling good after chilling. Yeah,

539
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 3: and you know he's a young ish guy. It's not

540
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,399
Speaker 3: like he's old. You're thirty two, I do think, so

541
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 3: he should be able to step in and be the PJ.

542
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,120
Speaker 3: Tucker that they need, I imagine. And now they have options,

543
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,440
Speaker 3: and they didn't give up a lot to get them

544
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:30,680
Speaker 3: here either. It is important to note, like when you're

545
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:32,800
Speaker 3: talking Tucker, correct me if I'm wrong when you're talking

546
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 3: to Tucker. And of course Horford first round picks are

547
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,520
Speaker 3: included in those deals, and I didn't take that to

548
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 3: get Drake Crowder just took a bunch of second round picks. Yeah,

549
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:40,879
Speaker 3: I think.

550
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,119
Speaker 4: Do you think that is the right value. Yeah? I

551
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 4: got Crowder behind both those guys, but they they needed

552
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,120
Speaker 4: their PJ. Tucker replacement. He's just a good, medium sized guy,

553
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,720
Speaker 4: which the Bucks kind of were lacking. He's going to

554
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 4: be bigger than Grayson Allen, Pat Connaton, a little bit

555
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,200
Speaker 4: quicker than Bobby Portis. So, like you're saying, tasks gives

556
00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,640
Speaker 4: him a little extra versatility and a guy who obviously

557
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 4: wanted to be in Milwaukee. He doesn't necessarily help their offense.

558
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 4: I don't think unless he's gonna hit open threes.

559
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 2: He's streaky.

560
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,280
Speaker 4: He's a streaky guy. They just need him to be

561
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,560
Speaker 4: like a league average three point shooter. Yeah, and that

562
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:11,200
Speaker 4: keeps him.

563
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:11,480
Speaker 3: On the court.

564
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,959
Speaker 2: Also, he's owed ten million for this season. Obviously it's

565
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,280
Speaker 2: gonna be less now. But he's an unrestricted free agent

566
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 2: this summer. But the Bucks, having acquired him in a trade,

567
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 2: they maintain his bird rights, so that could help them

568
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,159
Speaker 2: in an effort to resign him in free agency or

569
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 2: agree to some sort of extension beforehand. So I'll go

570
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 2: to Milwaukee.

571
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 3: I guess the question is is he okay with twenty

572
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:35,440
Speaker 3: minutes a game, because he does want a prominent role.

573
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:36,880
Speaker 3: When he was told he was going to the bench

574
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:37,879
Speaker 3: with Phoenix Suns.

575
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:38,080
Speaker 2: Good point.

576
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 3: I thought he was better than Camps just said I

577
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 3: ain't playing.

578
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:41,400
Speaker 2: Yeah.

579
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:44,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, So I guess he'll he'll get a decent role.

580
00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 3: But yeah, there's there's guys who are gonna take minutes

581
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:52,400
Speaker 3: from him. Trey mentioned Grayson Allen Pack conton Ingles. There's

582
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 3: a bunch of guys that can take minutes from him.

583
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:56,160
Speaker 2: He's going to get an opportunity. Oh you will yeah,

584
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 2: will and again like you know the Celtics they got

585
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 2: Mike Muscala, that's that was fine. Yesterday seventy six ers.

586
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:03,679
Speaker 2: You know they did a little swap there, diable for

587
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 2: McDaniels might be fine. That was a luxury tax move.

588
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 2: Calves didn't do anything. So these are the teams that

589
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 2: are like and then talked about the nets of course

590
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:14,199
Speaker 2: like obviously blowing it up. Uh, you know, nobody was

591
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,280
Speaker 2: like made a blockbuster move that. You're like Milwaukee going

592
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,880
Speaker 2: oh no in the East, like we we we blew

593
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 2: this one. We didn't like maintain our pace with them

594
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:24,960
Speaker 2: for what they did, but that didn't happen. So I

595
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:26,480
Speaker 2: think they're a winner. Let's keep it going on.

596
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,400
Speaker 3: You are beautiful in every single way. You didn't say beautiful,

597
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:29,919
Speaker 3: I know.

598
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 7: Yeah.

599
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 6: I saw the stream team really going in on us

600
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:37,320
Speaker 6: on the various Christian aglier songs that we missed out

601
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 6: on a lot of ballads.

602
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean when you have that voice.

603
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 5: It was yeah yeah.

604
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,960
Speaker 2: In the singing game, is like saying someone's can score

605
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 2: at all three levels, four level steph Curry vertical is

606
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 2: what it is.

607
00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 3: Five to player, Let's do another round.

608
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,240
Speaker 2: This is the drop the final podcast of the week.

609
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 2: We've done a million of them.

610
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 5: Let's go into the.

611
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:04,280
Speaker 2: Round of winners.

612
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:08,239
Speaker 3: Well, a couple additions by subtraction for me, and it

613
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 3: ain't Russell Westbrook not doing that. The Wolves got rid

614
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,880
Speaker 3: of Dangel Russell for Mike Conley essentially and a three

615
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,200
Speaker 3: team deal with the Lakers. Dangel Russell didn't like playing

616
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 3: with Rudy Gobert, and it was clear to his teammates

617
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:26,280
Speaker 3: and to opposing teams. He would complain about him on

618
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 3: the court. According to John Krazinsky of The Athletic, he

619
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 3: would go into the locker room and complain about it,

620
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 3: and the reporters would come in. As John Krasinsky reports,

621
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 3: a very respected reporter even keeled John, and he would

622
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 3: continue to complain about Gobert. He didn't know how to

623
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 3: get the most out of Rudy Gobert. Incomes Mike Conley,

624
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 3: and I think that's going to be a pretty good match.

625
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 3: Does Mike Conley have Dangel Russell's ceiling scoring ability? Nah,

626
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 3: But that's okay. It's going to be more about winning.

627
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 3: And you know the friendships that Karl Anthony Town's had

628
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:06,920
Speaker 3: with D'Angel Russell's ownership says, I don't care, we don't care.

629
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 3: We gotta win now. And Mike Conley, Mike Conley's gonna

630
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 3: deal with Rudy Gobert better, there's no doubt about that.

631
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 3: And yeah, there's just gonna be just more shots to

632
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 3: go around for others. And that D'Angel Russell experience, although

633
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 3: he has had good numbers, they're better when he goes

634
00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 3: to the bench, there's more. Anthony Edwards, I think, I

635
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 3: don't know. I'm not sure what you guys think, but

636
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 3: I think it's overall it's just gonna be a better

637
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 3: just a better balance, better better vibes most likely, and

638
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 3: I better fit.

639
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 2: That's obviously what they're hoping for.

640
00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's probably like a lateral move, like

641
00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:45,479
Speaker 4: player wise, going from Russell to Comley. There are strength

642
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 4: for both, weaknesses for both. Commley does have the chemistry

643
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 4: with Gobert, which is huge, and shout out to John

644
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 4: Hollinger for the reminder chemistry with Kyle Anderson for way

645
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 4: back in the Memphis p Kyle Anderson has great chemistry

646
00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 4: with Gobert, So maybe the three of them will just

647
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,760
Speaker 4: throw alleops after el oops to that guy, which would

648
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 4: keep him happy. And energized on the defensive end. Yeah,

649
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 4: there's now a rumored reunion with Patrick Beverley just running

650
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 4: back the play in team celebrating on the table a

651
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 4: little bit more flexibility going forward, and I think that

652
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 4: Mike Conley is likely a better influence for Anthony Edwards

653
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 4: than D'Angelo Russell would be. So I'm fine with it.

654
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:21,680
Speaker 4: Like i've this is the move that I've come around

655
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 4: the most on and have liked more than when it

656
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 4: first happened.

657
00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 3: It's definitely worrisome that Conley is old. I mean, he

658
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:31,560
Speaker 3: missed his time, so that part is should be a

659
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 3: worry for the Minnesota front office. But I just think

660
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 3: the pecking order is a little more clear now with

661
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,760
Speaker 3: D'Angelo Russell gone. Conley Towns has to come in and shoot.

662
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 3: Anthony Edwards is the number one guy right now, and

663
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:46,640
Speaker 3: then it's Gobert, Jane McDaniels and Conley to pick up

664
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 3: scraps along with Kyle Anderson and the bench guys. So

665
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,400
Speaker 3: it's it just makes a little bit more sense where

666
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,120
Speaker 3: Russell thought he was a bit more of a star

667
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:57,760
Speaker 3: because and I say that because he talked extension with

668
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 3: the front office. They weren't any. We're close to a number,

669
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 3: so it makes sense for them to move on. I'll

670
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,200
Speaker 3: get to another edition by subtraction. We're going to Denver

671
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 3: Bones Highland. Trey mentioned him went to the Clippers for

672
00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 3: only two second round picks. This is a second year guy,

673
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:15,560
Speaker 3: and they gave him a bigger role this year in

674
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 3: year two because they thought he could handle it. But

675
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 3: apparently he rubbed people the wrong way. And according to

676
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 3: Denver Posts, Mike Singer, I mean it sort of makes

677
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 3: sense here. He left the bench a few minutes into

678
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter of a game on January twenty second.

679
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 3: A while back. He was because he was frustrated with

680
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:33,960
Speaker 3: this role. He just didn't handle it well. He said,

681
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,960
Speaker 3: I'm gone, I'm leaving, and then he flew separate from

682
00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:40,240
Speaker 3: the team to their next road game. He flew commercial

683
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,920
Speaker 3: and everybody else I decided to fly commercial and he

684
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,600
Speaker 3: had the option of flying charter. And then he didn't

685
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 3: show up a shoot around, and then he was a DNP.

686
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,520
Speaker 3: Didn't play the next game, So there is a butting

687
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:54,480
Speaker 3: of heads there. He thought he deserved more so I am.

688
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 3: They're just an old school organization and they said we

689
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,479
Speaker 3: want to win and we can't have that on our

690
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 3: team right now. So they get away for two second

691
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:06,840
Speaker 3: round picks, which is a little surprising. You know, we

692
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:10,960
Speaker 3: mentioned throw in a like Jayleen McDaniel's move somewhat similar

693
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,720
Speaker 3: first round pick, but this guy's yeah, this is year two.

694
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 3: What it's not even that similar because Jane m daniel's

695
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 3: a year four going from Charlotte to Philly. This is

696
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 3: not a very good return. But they also weren't happy

697
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 3: with his shot selection, and they leave themselves a little

698
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:26,960
Speaker 3: thin in the guard spot on the bench. But it's

699
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 3: like Yokich kind of played backup point guard. Really, I mean,

700
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:32,080
Speaker 3: so doesn't matter all that much.

701
00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 2: And that's what I always wonder about this, Like did

702
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 2: Yokich it was at the kiss of death? Was he

703
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 2: like did they go to him and say like this

704
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,440
Speaker 2: is what do you think about this? You know, the

705
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,360
Speaker 2: way he's acting, the shot selection, you know, the pouting

706
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 2: a little bit. He's young, maybe a little immature, thinks

707
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:48,920
Speaker 2: he's a bigger deal than he is. How do you

708
00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 2: feel about the yokitchen? I just see him taking off

709
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 2: his page boy cap and putting his lap while he strokes,

710
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 2: instead of like an evil cat like a horse, giant

711
00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:05,600
Speaker 2: horse on his lap, get rid of them. His that

712
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 2: was in his lap, page by cap was on his head,

713
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:16,960
Speaker 2: put it on his one knee. Horses of course, of course,

714
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 2: the horse, of course, because you would think they probably

715
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 2: go to him, to me like you get just like

716
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 2: he is like sort of morphing here into a duncan

717
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:29,839
Speaker 2: like guy right. Doesn't say a lot obviously in an

718
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,719
Speaker 2: incredible player, and you should. You'd be silly not to

719
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 2: run your organization around such a player. And he probably

720
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,440
Speaker 2: has a lot of say in the matter, or sometimes

721
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 2: probably maybe doesn't even want to have a say in

722
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:41,919
Speaker 2: the matter. But yeah, in addition, by subtraction, we'll see

723
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:45,279
Speaker 2: here you know, Mike Malone was over him.

724
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:49,839
Speaker 4: Yeah, and the Nuggets have championship aspirations this season, so

725
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 4: they're saying, sorry, man, no distractions. They gave them away.

726
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 4: They did two second round picks. Unless they draft to

727
00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 4: Nicola Yokics, that's gotta look like they lost the trade. Sure,

728
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:01,680
Speaker 4: but if it's good for the vibes, then I suppose

729
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 4: it's okay. Plus they can probably recover with like a

730
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:06,799
Speaker 4: Reggie Jackson in the buyout market or something for their

731
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:07,600
Speaker 4: backup point guard.

732
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:11,279
Speaker 2: Will we see any articles coming out the next couple

733
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 2: of days. Bone Tyland was a vampire. Bone Tyland was

734
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 2: a yeah probably not probably not all right, Trey, who

735
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 2: you got for a winner?

736
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:25,719
Speaker 4: We're getting near the NPC era of trades because I

737
00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:28,480
Speaker 4: considered a lot of minor moves for my second winner.

738
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:31,080
Speaker 4: I like Josh Hart to the Knicks, talk about great vibes.

739
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:34,440
Speaker 4: That was an incredible seeing Jalen Brunson react to that.

740
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,240
Speaker 4: Josh Hart is obviously very excited as well. I also

741
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:39,359
Speaker 4: think that the Knicks are kind of the only team

742
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:41,480
Speaker 4: in the middle in the Eastern Conference who actually improved,

743
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:45,200
Speaker 4: which is saying something. I like Gary Payton too. Going

744
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,320
Speaker 4: back to the Warriors, they know he fits, they need vets,

745
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,080
Speaker 4: they need defense, saved a little money.

746
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:50,440
Speaker 5: Nice, And then Luke.

747
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:53,279
Speaker 4: Canard went to the Grizzlies. He addresses the need just

748
00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:55,760
Speaker 4: shoot some threes, don't get completely.

749
00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:58,479
Speaker 2: In that half court offense, which yeah, bogs down.

750
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,720
Speaker 4: They need shooting shooting, they need him to be bench

751
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:04,960
Speaker 4: bane basically just shoot it every time, hopefully hit forty percent.

752
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,160
Speaker 4: But ultimately I gotta go with Kyrie to the MAVs,

753
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:10,839
Speaker 4: or shall I say Kyrie to the MAVs. You know,

754
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:14,520
Speaker 4: that's a big question mark. He's the best player other

755
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:16,880
Speaker 4: than Kevin Durant who got traded. This is definitely the

756
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 4: biggest swing other than Kevin Durant. It looked like Kyrie

757
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:23,799
Speaker 4: fit alongside the Dallas Mavericks perfectly in his first game,

758
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:27,399
Speaker 4: passing the ball, unlocking Theo Pinson from their days back

759
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,359
Speaker 4: in Brooklyn together, just shooting the ball really well. They're

760
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 4: gonna be a great offensive team. They increase their title

761
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:37,319
Speaker 4: odds this season, no doubt. They also increase the chance

762
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:39,520
Speaker 4: that their team blows up in the summer, no doubt

763
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:42,480
Speaker 4: about it. It's fifty to fifty. Oh well, things are

764
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 4: gonna go. But the window is literally these next few months.

765
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 5: I do think.

766
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 4: Kyrie will be playing for a contract and he can't

767
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:50,760
Speaker 4: force his way out of this team until the summer.

768
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 4: It could be a Tyson Chandler where they bring him

769
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,000
Speaker 4: in instant success, go to a title. It could be

770
00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:58,879
Speaker 4: a Rondo where it's a complete disaster and they can't

771
00:36:58,920 --> 00:36:59,759
Speaker 4: wait to get rid of him.

772
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 2: We shall see, we shall see. One game played good

773
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 2: so far, Yes, he looked amazing. Uh the other night

774
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 2: on Wednesday night, there not playing with Luca, but it

775
00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 2: looked like he belonged and they had some they had

776
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:17,360
Speaker 2: some bounce to them, and he obviously was locked in,

777
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 2: had a good game in the win. But it's Kyrie.

778
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 2: Things changed exactly right. I love that one. Maverick's question,

779
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:27,160
Speaker 2: markus whatever that we can maybe final one here. Look,

780
00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:32,239
Speaker 2: there are lots of different types of NBA fans. You

781
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:35,880
Speaker 2: got those that actually like to watch basketball, which is

782
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 2: a dying breed if we're being actually watch the games,

783
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,400
Speaker 2: talk a little x's and o's. You got fans that

784
00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:43,880
Speaker 2: live and die for the trade deadline. I mean, people

785
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,200
Speaker 2: love to play GM and we saw with the numbers

786
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:47,880
Speaker 2: we put up over the last couple of days. People

787
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,479
Speaker 2: love talking traits. That's just the way it is. That's fine.

788
00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:53,040
Speaker 2: You got the cap nerds out there that are trying

789
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:54,759
Speaker 2: to learn the ins and outs of the CBA, and

790
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,040
Speaker 2: those people are smarter than I'll ever be. You got

791
00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:59,759
Speaker 2: your real housewives people, I call them those that love

792
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:03,080
Speaker 2: the be a gossip. You know, Oh that guy's a vampire.

793
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:05,480
Speaker 2: I hope people love it. Let's go to town, get

794
00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:12,799
Speaker 2: the photoshop going talking about the played vampire, and then

795
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 2: you have the ultimate sickle level of fandom. I call

796
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:22,480
Speaker 2: them the buyout boys. People get pumped about buyout guys

797
00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:26,839
Speaker 2: that almost never help a team do anything. But let's

798
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:31,360
Speaker 2: get excited because the potential bio market it's got some names.

799
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:33,800
Speaker 2: You know, these guys, there are a lot of names.

800
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 2: Let's go through some. Some have been mentioned already. But

801
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:40,160
Speaker 2: John Wall he's not playing for Houston. Russell Westbrook he

802
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 2: ain't playing for Utah, And there are a lot of

803
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:46,759
Speaker 2: other ways. Derrick Rose possibility, Alec Burks, Patrick Beverley for sure,

804
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:51,840
Speaker 2: Terrence Ross, Nerlin's Noel, Rudy Gay, Will Barton, Danny Green, sergeabaka,

805
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:54,799
Speaker 2: George Hill, Reggie Jackson sounds like he's not gonna play

806
00:38:54,800 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 2: for the Hornets, Dwayne Deadman. There's a lot and will

807
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:04,560
Speaker 2: one two maybe of those guys latch onto a team

808
00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:06,080
Speaker 2: and help them in a in a playoff game or

809
00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 2: a playoff series. Maybe maybe, but man, maybe that's the

810
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 2: bio boys. Is an extra level of sickness.

811
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 4: You gotta be. You gotta be a super optimist to

812
00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:19,480
Speaker 4: be a buyout because you gotta think that this guy

813
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:21,799
Speaker 4: who is clearly at the end of his career, who

814
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 4: was traded away from the team because they didn't want him,

815
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:28,040
Speaker 4: and another team said, nah, we're good. They're making an

816
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:30,040
Speaker 4: impact in the playoffs. But I'll talk myself into every

817
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 4: single one of them. There's no doubt about it. You

818
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,560
Speaker 4: even mentioned my favorite. Oh who miss Kevin Love?

819
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:37,680
Speaker 2: I thought I thought I saw reports that that wasn't happening.

820
00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 4: But he's gonna say, I want to ring, I'll go

821
00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:42,920
Speaker 4: to l a m that's.

822
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:47,799
Speaker 2: To the Clippers. He's got a better chance that the

823
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:48,879
Speaker 2: Calves winning a ring.

824
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 4: Than he does. The Laker Cats ain't going anywhere this season,

825
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 4: all right?

826
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:54,400
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, I thought I saw a report that I

827
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:56,080
Speaker 2: had him on the list. You'll you'll be happy to know,

828
00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:57,480
Speaker 2: but I took it off because I saw that the

829
00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,680
Speaker 2: Calves were not likely to reach a biome.

830
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 3: Baby or not release him. I don't even play he will, like,

831
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:08,919
Speaker 3: why wouldn't they need? I think they they won't start

832
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:14,560
Speaker 3: them over? No, no, no, he's a venture. I mean, where's

833
00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 3: it gonna start?

834
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:15,440
Speaker 5: Yeah?

835
00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:17,800
Speaker 3: Where do you want to start with the Lakers?

836
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:19,799
Speaker 4: You man, he's out of the rotation.

837
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:21,799
Speaker 2: Of all those other names. So do you have one

838
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:23,799
Speaker 2: that you're like, let me be a buyout boy here

839
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 2: for a second. Let me talk myself into No.

840
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:28,720
Speaker 3: I don't want to see a top five biots coming

841
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:36,919
Speaker 3: in the short department. We're going deep. I will say,

842
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 3: if Russell Westbrook goes back to the Clippers who just

843
00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:43,200
Speaker 3: got rid of John Wall who's a guy that was

844
00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:46,920
Speaker 3: traded for Russell Westbrook, I mean, that's some full circle

845
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:49,319
Speaker 3: weird stuff. I could see him going to the Miami Heat.

846
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:51,920
Speaker 3: I would see Westbrook on the Heat where the bench

847
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:58,680
Speaker 3: is lacking. Lowry does not look like old Lowry. I

848
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 3: could see that happening. I could see Westbrook going there.

849
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 3: I guess that all right.

850
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:04,680
Speaker 2: So we'll have lots of activity over the next little

851
00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:06,480
Speaker 2: bit here with the bio boys. Let's take our first

852
00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:08,840
Speaker 2: break when we come back, Losers of the NBA Trade Deadline,

853
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:13,719

858
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:26,840
Speaker 2: Help us out in the rankings. Okay, we've done the

859
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:30,000
Speaker 2: winners of the trade deadline. Let's do the losers. Who

860
00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:33,200
Speaker 2: gets your big l from this past week.

861
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:37,000
Speaker 3: Like a real schmuck. I'm gonna complain about the Raptors

862
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:41,640
Speaker 3: here for a little bit. Raptors had in Siva Ery

863
00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 3: go to the podium yesterday and he explained that they

864
00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:48,880
Speaker 3: were a sub five hundred team going into the trade deadline,

865
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 3: looked like they were sellers. All the chatter about them

866
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:55,200
Speaker 3: being sellers, and they added a player. I mean, this

867
00:41:55,320 --> 00:42:00,800
Speaker 3: is a bad team, and they acted in the market

868
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:02,799
Speaker 3: like they were a good team, like they were going

869
00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:04,719
Speaker 3: for it. They trade a top six pick, a top

870
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:09,000
Speaker 3: six pick for Yaka Perdle. That might look bad, but

871
00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:11,880
Speaker 3: Massai also said, I wanted to give these guys a

872
00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:14,839
Speaker 3: shot with a real center back there to see how

873
00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:20,520
Speaker 3: it works. And we've played a little bit individualistic, he said.

874
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:23,480
Speaker 2: He said that a couple of times selfish.

875
00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:26,160
Speaker 3: I'm saying selfish, but you know I'm adding on to it.

876
00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:27,960
Speaker 3: You know, they were looking out for themselves, which is

877
00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:33,520
Speaker 3: entirely true. They haven't jolled well, so it's unfortunate. You know,

878
00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:36,239
Speaker 3: we watched like, as Raptor fans, it's a mid team

879
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 3: that's not even a mid team right now, but they

880
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:40,560
Speaker 3: acted like it in the when they went and talked

881
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:44,319
Speaker 3: to other teams, and they likely have free agents here

882
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:47,400
Speaker 3: now that they didn't deal in Fred van Vliet, Gary

883
00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:51,239
Speaker 3: Trent that they may get nothing for because they didn't deal.

884
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:54,319
Speaker 3: So that's the word start too, and they're gonna have

885
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,759
Speaker 3: to pay Purdle. It sure feels like they're gonna pay him.

886
00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 3: Apparently the Bucks were a team that wanted Fred van Vliet.

887
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:05,880
Speaker 3: According to sham Sharanya, they were looking, but maybe Massai

888
00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:08,759
Speaker 3: sat there and overvalue his players to some degree and said,

889
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,040
Speaker 3: you know, we want a lot for these dudes. That

890
00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 3: wasn't happening, So now we still trust him Masai. So

891
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:17,160
Speaker 3: I don't want to complain too much in the off season.

892
00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 3: I think they can and will do something. But right

893
00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:26,439
Speaker 3: now they just asked a lot, and this mid team

894
00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:30,160
Speaker 3: just stays mid even though they're playing in a good stretch.

895
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:32,040
Speaker 3: So it's like I can't even be that mad. I

896
00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:35,440
Speaker 3: can't be that frustrated. I can't have a good, you know,

897
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:40,240
Speaker 3: complaining segment. It's just because Massi always plays it slow

898
00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:43,840
Speaker 3: and then he always does the right thing. But I

899
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,640
Speaker 3: just don't see signing Fred and signing Gary Trent and

900
00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:50,799
Speaker 3: signing Yaka as the right thing. So that's that's the

901
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:52,719
Speaker 3: question we have going into the off season. What the

902
00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:55,719
Speaker 3: hell are they going to do because this team just

903
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:56,759
Speaker 3: ain't it right now.

904
00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:58,920
Speaker 2: That's his thing, though he did say that a couple

905
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:01,760
Speaker 2: of times. Patience, that's what our organization is all about.

906
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:05,799
Speaker 2: When everybody else panics, we just ride it out and

907
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:10,520
Speaker 2: play cool and keep looking at our BlackBerry. But yeah,

908
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,399
Speaker 2: they did give up a top six protected twenty four

909
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 2: first round pick and a couple seconds there for a pearl.

910
00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:17,239
Speaker 2: They wanted a center.

911
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:17,960
Speaker 3: They got a center.

912
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:20,839
Speaker 2: See if it helps their chances to get into Really

913
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:22,560
Speaker 2: all they're looking at at this point with them being

914
00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:25,200
Speaker 2: so far back, is a play in or maybe to

915
00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:27,520
Speaker 2: get out of it if they can put together a

916
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:30,640
Speaker 2: hell of a run here. But they have huge, huge

917
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:33,359
Speaker 2: decisions once you get into the off season with all

918
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:35,320
Speaker 2: of these sixpiring deals.

919
00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:38,200
Speaker 3: Like Yakob isn't going to make them that much better.

920
00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:40,359
Speaker 3: The rest of the team has to play better. Right now,

921
00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 3: they're the ninth worst team in the league. If they

922
00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,920
Speaker 3: go through next year and that pick conveys to the Spurs,

923
00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:48,799
Speaker 3: they get a nine pick. That's what Yakob was. You

924
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:52,600
Speaker 3: can get half in terms of rookie salary, pay half

925
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:55,560
Speaker 3: what Yakub's going to earn for that same salary. So

926
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:57,400
Speaker 3: it doesn't really make sense if they're not going to

927
00:44:57,440 --> 00:44:58,799
Speaker 3: be good. Is it going to come from with it?

928
00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:00,880
Speaker 3: Is it going to come from Scott? Always the question.

929
00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:04,960
Speaker 2: It's also like did they miss the leverage point here

930
00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:09,239
Speaker 2: at the deadline. They obviously were taking calls for og

931
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:13,239
Speaker 2: van Vliet. I assume Gary Trent Junior as well. They

932
00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:15,319
Speaker 2: wanted more. No one would give it to them, and

933
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:17,680
Speaker 2: they said, okay, well we'll just readdress this in the

934
00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:20,160
Speaker 2: summer and we'll play it out. We'll actually surprise everyone.

935
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:22,359
Speaker 2: Go get a center, which we do need to help

936
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:25,200
Speaker 2: us defensively, and see where that takes us, and then

937
00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:27,840
Speaker 2: we can maybe sign and trade these guys in the summer.

938
00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:29,640
Speaker 2: That could be an issue with the three of them.

939
00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:32,000
Speaker 2: You know, Hollinger has a great breakdown of why the

940
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:34,799
Speaker 2: money could be complicated. They could very likely lose one

941
00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:39,919
Speaker 2: of these guys completely for nothing. Could happen. But yeah,

942
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:42,600
Speaker 2: it's it's it was disappointing. I think we were all

943
00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:44,839
Speaker 2: ready to think that og Or van Vleet was being

944
00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:46,879
Speaker 2: moved and then they still are here.

945
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:50,759
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's surprising that the Raptors were buyers yesterday.

946
00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:53,080
Speaker 4: For sure, they need a center, they're going to need

947
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:55,440
Speaker 4: a center next year. But they're paying a lot for one,

948
00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:58,080
Speaker 4: three picks and the contract and then you got to

949
00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:01,120
Speaker 4: sign Fred and Gary as well, or just let them walk.

950
00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:05,640
Speaker 4: It's just just not what you were expecting from the

951
00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:09,000
Speaker 4: Raptors this entire season, right like they had expectations coming

952
00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:12,480
Speaker 4: into this year, fall short of them. Here trade deadline comes,

953
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:14,840
Speaker 4: you're thinking, all right, fine, you fell short of expectations.

954
00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:18,200
Speaker 4: You're going to be sellers. Not this time. We shall see.

955
00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:21,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, it just seem like it's a seller's market. It

956
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 3: is right to sell a really really talented player because

957
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,359
Speaker 3: there's so many buyers out there, so many teams going

958
00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:30,080
Speaker 3: for it. You know, you see teams like the Charlotte

959
00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:34,200
Speaker 3: Hornets that aren't as you know, capable and swift. Does

960
00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:38,080
Speaker 3: my man MESSI make deals to sell off parts. So

961
00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:40,919
Speaker 3: when it comes to the offseason and if if Fred

962
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:44,640
Speaker 3: leaves for nothing, that's the biggest one they're going to resign. Yack,

963
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:47,239
Speaker 3: they just traded a first form and two seconds, as

964
00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:50,640
Speaker 3: you said trade, it did end up being three picks. Fred,

965
00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:54,160
Speaker 3: is the question Mark. Now, Yeah, what happened with Kyle

966
00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 3: Lowry way back when they were able to sign and

967
00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:59,839
Speaker 3: trade him to the Miami Heat and got a couple parts.

968
00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:03,680
Speaker 3: So they've shown that they could do that before. And

969
00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:08,239
Speaker 3: because it's not a great free agent crop, some team

970
00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:10,239
Speaker 3: will miss out, some team will be looking for a

971
00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:12,080
Speaker 3: point guard in the off season. So you could say,

972
00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:14,920
Speaker 3: let's well, give you Fred, we'll sign in trade. Just

973
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:17,400
Speaker 3: because Fred may do a favor to the Raps, but

974
00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:19,040
Speaker 3: they could all he could also leave for nothing.

975
00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:21,400
Speaker 2: You're generally gonna get less in assigning trades than you

976
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:24,360
Speaker 2: would add a trade deadline usually. Yeah, and again, just

977
00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:26,520
Speaker 2: to break this down, Hollander had a great breakdown. Any

978
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:28,799
Speaker 2: commitment to Peerle like you guys were talking about, which

979
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:31,480
Speaker 2: they likely will do, basically blots out any hope of

980
00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:34,399
Speaker 2: using cap space to replace Fred van Vliet or Gary

981
00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:37,920
Speaker 2: Trent Junior should they leave after after opting out of

982
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:40,440
Speaker 2: their contracts in free agency, because it leaves Toronto in

983
00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:45,280
Speaker 2: this dreaded bird rights trap with three players uh peerl

984
00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:48,880
Speaker 2: GTG and FVV, which could make for a very expensive summer.

985
00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:50,160
Speaker 2: And then you get into the whole thing of like

986
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:51,960
Speaker 2: even the idea of like, if you do it, if

987
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:53,800
Speaker 2: you pull it off, you bring all these guys back

988
00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:57,080
Speaker 2: and you make the numbers work. It's like, is it

989
00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:01,600
Speaker 2: a good team, but we haven't had Pardle.

990
00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:05,200
Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah, the record says no. Then I think

991
00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:07,839
Speaker 3: what it probably came down to was they overvalued Fred

992
00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:14,160
Speaker 3: van Vliet's market. We all know that the price was

993
00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:16,400
Speaker 3: high for og Ananobi, but it sure seems like the

994
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:19,239
Speaker 3: price was also high for Fred, and it seemed like

995
00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:22,120
Speaker 3: the Clippers reportedly weren't willing to give up Terrence Mann,

996
00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:27,360
Speaker 3: who is not close to the level of Fred van Vliet,

997
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:31,160
Speaker 3: obviously a lot younger, but it just seems like the

998
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:35,359
Speaker 3: value for the perception was a lot higher in the

999
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:36,720
Speaker 3: front office than it was outside.

1000
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:38,680
Speaker 2: Here here's the whole other part of this, where the

1001
00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:40,759
Speaker 2: Raptors are as an organization and the talent they do

1002
00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:43,200
Speaker 2: have on the team. Obviously I'm talking about Siakam as

1003
00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:45,840
Speaker 2: an All NBA All Star type guy. It's like it

1004
00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:48,040
Speaker 2: would have been so easy if not only they're bad

1005
00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:52,080
Speaker 2: record wise, but like rip it down, blow it up entirely. Oh,

1006
00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:54,239
Speaker 2: now you're tradeing og for as many picks as you get.

1007
00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:56,440
Speaker 2: Now you're trading Fred van Vliet for a young promising

1008
00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:58,359
Speaker 2: player and a pick something like that, and you can

1009
00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:01,400
Speaker 2: really lean into draft cap. It'll draft capital, draft capital.

1010
00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:04,400
Speaker 2: But the Raptors they don't want to be like a

1011
00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:08,160
Speaker 2: team that's like start over and like three four years

1012
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:10,279
Speaker 2: out and it's like, okay, Scotty, here's the keys to

1013
00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:12,160
Speaker 2: the car. Let's go like and then like that would

1014
00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:14,239
Speaker 2: have to include trading Sakam, but they don't. They want

1015
00:49:14,239 --> 00:49:16,319
Speaker 2: to thread the needle here of like it'd be nice

1016
00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:18,880
Speaker 2: to get some of that, but we also want players

1017
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:22,160
Speaker 2: that we can still win games with Barnes, with Siakam

1018
00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:25,560
Speaker 2: and then of course now Perdle. So that's like the

1019
00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:28,399
Speaker 2: tough the tough part and part of the decision making

1020
00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:31,520
Speaker 2: that they're trying to, like I think thread which is

1021
00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:34,000
Speaker 2: never easy. I think the Blazers are doing something similar

1022
00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:36,959
Speaker 2: to with like you have Lillard, he wants to be there,

1023
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:40,080
Speaker 2: and it's like you lean into the tank last year.

1024
00:49:40,160 --> 00:49:41,840
Speaker 2: But it's like what they're just like you're caught in

1025
00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:45,120
Speaker 2: between two things here, like that little mediocrity, which is

1026
00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:46,719
Speaker 2: sort of sucks.

1027
00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:50,440
Speaker 3: At times for some fan basis, Yeah, we'll get to

1028
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:51,759
Speaker 3: the bulls same thing.

1029
00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:54,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like at least your team made a trade.

1030
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:58,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, they traded up into more of a mid team.

1031
00:49:58,600 --> 00:49:59,920
Speaker 3: I mean it's a mid team that's not even a

1032
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:02,640
Speaker 3: team because there's some five hundred. That's the worry. Some

1033
00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:06,720
Speaker 3: part is that they do bring guys back, and I guess,

1034
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:09,040
Speaker 3: like you know, we can just project and just and

1035
00:50:09,239 --> 00:50:11,680
Speaker 3: just guess that the Clippers weren't willing to give up

1036
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:13,480
Speaker 3: Terrence man in a first round pick for a guy

1037
00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:15,879
Speaker 3: who was an All Star last year in Fred van Vliet. Yeah,

1038
00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:19,080
Speaker 3: what were the Bucks willing offered? You know, it's either

1039
00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:22,920
Speaker 3: it was either a first round pick like from the Clippers,

1040
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:25,280
Speaker 3: or over the Bucks and no other players. It feels

1041
00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:27,879
Speaker 3: like it was just one or the other. I think

1042
00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:31,040
Speaker 3: the market just the perception was was higher from the

1043
00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:34,400
Speaker 3: Raptors perspective, and that happened all throughout the league. Really

1044
00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:37,520
Speaker 3: like the other than trading for you know, Durant and Kyrie,

1045
00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:39,719
Speaker 3: there just wasn't a lot traded. It was all a

1046
00:50:39,719 --> 00:50:43,000
Speaker 3: bunch of second round picks. And that's not what Messaia

1047
00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:43,680
Speaker 3: was looking for.

1048
00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:46,760
Speaker 2: Trey, who's your big loser of the weekend the deadlines?

1049
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:50,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean save it for the weekend. We'll see

1050
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:53,800
Speaker 4: who it is uh yeah, I mean the Raptors of

1051
00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:55,480
Speaker 4: the ninth worst team in the league. The Bulls are

1052
00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:57,880
Speaker 4: the tenth worst team in the league. And just like

1053
00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:00,680
Speaker 4: the Raptors that thought, oh, this could be blow up time, Nope.

1054
00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:03,399
Speaker 4: Best Bulls take I got was from Tommy Poro. He said,

1055
00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:08,560
Speaker 4: damn Bulls didn't do anything good all day yesterday. Once again,

1056
00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:12,160
Speaker 4: no trades sat out last trade deadline, basically sat out

1057
00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:14,040
Speaker 4: the summer. They brought in Dragas and Drummond, who have

1058
00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:17,040
Speaker 4: both been fine at times and done nothing at times,

1059
00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:20,040
Speaker 4: sat out this deadline. Choices were blow it up or

1060
00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:23,240
Speaker 4: add something like a point guard or shooting or rim protection.

1061
00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:26,439
Speaker 4: They said, nah, now we're good. Could have shot Boos

1062
00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:29,920
Speaker 4: while negotiating his extension. Maybe a team that's contending for

1063
00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:32,320
Speaker 4: a title with like a guy who can sometimes shoot

1064
00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:35,120
Speaker 4: a three, grab some boards, and then you would be

1065
00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:37,760
Speaker 4: able to extend him as well. They could have started

1066
00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:40,120
Speaker 4: a bidding war for Caruso. A team like the Warriors

1067
00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:42,720
Speaker 4: would have loved Caruso. The Lakers would have loved Caruso.

1068
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:45,600
Speaker 4: There are others out there who would part with something

1069
00:51:45,640 --> 00:51:48,600
Speaker 4: for him, a young player that is interesting. They could

1070
00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:51,279
Speaker 4: have even traded Andre Drummond first and second round picks.

1071
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:53,080
Speaker 4: They were flying around like crazy yesterday. They could have

1072
00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:58,120
Speaker 4: done anything. Instead, they chose continuity and evaluation. The Bulls,

1073
00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:01,120
Speaker 4: of course, went nineteen and twenty three in five games

1074
00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:03,520
Speaker 4: in the playoffs last season after Lonzo Ball went out.

1075
00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:06,279
Speaker 4: They're twenty six and twenty nine right now, so I'm

1076
00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:09,400
Speaker 4: not sure what the evaluation needing to be done here is.

1077
00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:12,560
Speaker 4: I think, more accurately, they chose to stay underneath the

1078
00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:16,719
Speaker 4: luxury tax our trust. Karnaesiebus even said that after the

1079
00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:20,279
Speaker 4: Durant and Kyrie trades, the East has gotten worse, so

1080
00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:24,440
Speaker 4: there's opportunity. Bulls went out and laid an egg against

1081
00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:28,120
Speaker 4: the nets. Their guys weren't even being dudes. No, Cam

1082
00:52:28,160 --> 00:52:30,319
Speaker 4: Thomas didn't have a forty point game last night. They

1083
00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:33,080
Speaker 4: just got smoked. They made five threes last night, and

1084
00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:35,279
Speaker 4: that was the story of the game. That has been

1085
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:38,680
Speaker 4: the story of the Bulls since basically February first, twenty

1086
00:52:38,719 --> 00:52:41,440
Speaker 4: twenty two. They don't got enough shooting. Just get a shooter,

1087
00:52:43,239 --> 00:52:45,960
Speaker 4: Just get a shooter. That's it. Like Luke Canard went

1088
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:49,879
Speaker 4: to the Grizzlies for what basically James Wiseman, like, that's

1089
00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:51,719
Speaker 4: how he kind of ended up there. They should have

1090
00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:55,160
Speaker 4: been able to do something, They should have done something. Instead,

1091
00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:57,080
Speaker 4: they are the only team who hasn't made a move.

1092
00:52:57,120 --> 00:52:59,040
Speaker 4: I mean people are saying the Cavs, yes, that's true,

1093
00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:02,600
Speaker 4: they didn't trade Kris, but they also made a gigantic movie. Yeah,

1094
00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:05,719
Speaker 4: just a few months ago. So disappointing, and then you

1095
00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:07,200
Speaker 4: throw on the loss at the end of the day.

1096
00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:09,560
Speaker 4: It was just like what's going on. You could tell

1097
00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:13,760
Speaker 4: the players felt like the fan base, they're like, all right,

1098
00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:16,319
Speaker 4: we're running back out there again. And then of course

1099
00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:18,880
Speaker 4: now we've got Ak and Billy basically blaming the players,

1100
00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:20,759
Speaker 4: saying they got to have some more urgency at the

1101
00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:23,120
Speaker 4: start of the game. Who's the coach, Maybe he should

1102
00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:23,799
Speaker 4: get them fired up.

1103
00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:24,360
Speaker 3: I don't know.

1104
00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:27,520
Speaker 2: Bad stuff, bad bad trade deadline for the Bulls fans.

1105
00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:29,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, you got a thirty three year old tomorrow, thirty

1106
00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:33,000
Speaker 3: two year old booch, a guy in Lonzo Ball who

1107
00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:35,720
Speaker 3: we don't know when he's gonna be playing ever again.

1108
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:40,560
Speaker 3: And that's you know, besides Zach Lavine, that's a big

1109
00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:46,000
Speaker 3: part of your team. It's just it's a bad situation overall.

1110
00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:49,560
Speaker 2: Let's talk about the Blazers too. Here, that's what we're

1111
00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:50,760
Speaker 2: talking about.

1112
00:53:51,160 --> 00:53:52,200
Speaker 4: You're wearing red and black.

1113
00:53:52,239 --> 00:53:55,840
Speaker 2: It's not good, yeah, Raps Bulls Blazers here. Okay, Look,

1114
00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:59,120
Speaker 2: the Blazers made several trades. Uh yesterday, I don't mind

1115
00:53:59,120 --> 00:54:02,000
Speaker 2: what they did. Two players, they brought in, four players.

1116
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:04,680
Speaker 2: They added some draft capital. Elk goes Josh Hart out

1117
00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:07,200
Speaker 2: goes Gary Payton, the second who basically was injured all year.

1118
00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:10,600
Speaker 2: Elk goes a future second round pick. Okay, in comes

1119
00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:18,320
Speaker 2: Cam Reddish Matist, Thaibel, Ryan Archiedacino, Kevin Knox, five second rounders,

1120
00:54:18,760 --> 00:54:21,719
Speaker 2: and then a protected twenty three Knicks first rounder, which

1121
00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:25,360
Speaker 2: is going to turn into four second rounders if not conveyed.

1122
00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:28,319
Speaker 2: And that would, you know, if the Knicks do not

1123
00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:32,360
Speaker 2: make the playoffs. So we're probably looking at just a

1124
00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:34,000
Speaker 2: bunch of second rounders, is what I'm getting out here.

1125
00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:36,719
Speaker 2: I guess the Knicks could fall apart, but you think

1126
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:37,479
Speaker 2: it's not that bad.

1127
00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:39,680
Speaker 3: Oh, so it would be a first round pick if

1128
00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:42,920
Speaker 3: things stayed as they are, Like, if they make the playoffs,

1129
00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:44,520
Speaker 3: they get a first round. Portland gets a first round.

1130
00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:45,480
Speaker 2: That is it that way?

1131
00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:45,799
Speaker 3: Yeah?

1132
00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:47,719
Speaker 2: Or the other way around to protect the twenty three

1133
00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:48,439
Speaker 2: Kicks first rounder.

1134
00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:50,160
Speaker 4: Yeah if the Nicks make it, yeah.

1135
00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:53,160
Speaker 2: They get it. Yeah, good point. So sorry, that's that's

1136
00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:53,799
Speaker 2: exactly right.

1137
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:56,359
Speaker 4: So that is like a late teens, yes, early twenty

1138
00:54:56,360 --> 00:54:57,200
Speaker 4: twentieth right now.

1139
00:54:57,239 --> 00:55:00,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay. I just think this team is really stuck

1140
00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:05,480
Speaker 2: in like basketball purgatory because it is a little difficult

1141
00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:08,680
Speaker 2: figure out what their plan is. They are They're like

1142
00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:11,520
Speaker 2: accumulating picks sort of, maybe with the idea like they

1143
00:55:11,520 --> 00:55:14,560
Speaker 2: get enough of them that a big name that they

1144
00:55:14,600 --> 00:55:18,000
Speaker 2: compare with Damian Lillard becomes available in the summer. I

1145
00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:21,359
Speaker 2: don't know who that would be. But in that case,

1146
00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:24,600
Speaker 2: then all this draft capital and probably as Simons or

1147
00:55:24,640 --> 00:55:25,959
Speaker 2: a Nurk is going out the door.

1148
00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:26,279
Speaker 3: Right.

1149
00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:30,279
Speaker 2: They have to make a decision about Jeremy Grant, like

1150
00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:32,760
Speaker 2: he didn't he didn't want that extension that they offered him.

1151
00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:37,080
Speaker 2: So are they retaining him? How much does that cost?

1152
00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:39,759
Speaker 2: And if they're not, what are they using their cap

1153
00:55:39,840 --> 00:55:42,280
Speaker 2: room on if he were to leave, Like they would

1154
00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:45,320
Speaker 2: need a three or a four. Who are going to

1155
00:55:45,360 --> 00:55:47,440
Speaker 2: be the big free agents at that spot this summer.

1156
00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:54,120
Speaker 2: Potentially Kuzma, I guess nice Draymond Green a possibility Harrison

1157
00:55:54,160 --> 00:56:03,160
Speaker 2: Barnes a possibility, and I just like I so the

1158
00:56:03,320 --> 00:56:06,120
Speaker 2: track record right now for Joe cronin his recent track

1159
00:56:06,160 --> 00:56:09,040
Speaker 2: record obviously since taking over his GM, it's not that good.

1160
00:56:09,360 --> 00:56:11,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, the direction is a question. That's totally.

1161
00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:17,720
Speaker 2: It's not good. He traded McCollum and Nance for Heart Saturansky, Nikhil,

1162
00:56:17,719 --> 00:56:20,160
Speaker 2: Alexander Walker. I mean, so really in the end it

1163
00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:24,600
Speaker 2: turns into nothing. There's some draft capital, Norm Powell, Robert

1164
00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:29,440
Speaker 2: Covington traded for Bledsoe, your guy Justice Winslow, Keon Johnson.

1165
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:32,359
Speaker 2: That's not looking great at this point. Of course. They

1166
00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:34,400
Speaker 2: traded a twenty five first round pick for Jeremy Grant.

1167
00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:36,839
Speaker 2: That's okay. You'll see what type of deal they sign

1168
00:56:36,960 --> 00:56:39,160
Speaker 2: or do not sign this summer. They signed Gary Payton

1169
00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:43,480
Speaker 2: the second for what three years, twenty six million. He's

1170
00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:46,920
Speaker 2: already gone. They moved Josh Hart, like I said, so

1171
00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:51,719
Speaker 2: that's that's that's not great. You know, it's nice that

1172
00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:54,840
Speaker 2: David wants to be there. He doesn't want to go anywhere.

1173
00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:57,799
Speaker 2: I want to do it here, but decisions need to

1174
00:56:57,840 --> 00:57:00,480
Speaker 2: start being made of like where the how you're going

1175
00:57:00,520 --> 00:57:03,040
Speaker 2: to like be a competitive team here. I don't I

1176
00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:05,719
Speaker 2: don't see it. So that's why I've got them as

1177
00:57:05,719 --> 00:57:08,560
Speaker 2: a loser, not not again like you like. I mean, look,

1178
00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:10,399
Speaker 2: you can talk yourself into Camradish if you want. I'm

1179
00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:15,000
Speaker 2: not going to Kevin Knox. No, Sybil totally fine player,

1180
00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:17,760
Speaker 2: obviously has at least a skill in this league. Some

1181
00:57:17,880 --> 00:57:21,760
Speaker 2: limitations offensively, but that was not a great great They.

1182
00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:24,600
Speaker 3: Saved money them, they they got what they did.

1183
00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:25,520
Speaker 4: They're trying to save money.

1184
00:57:25,560 --> 00:57:27,640
Speaker 3: They're trying to save money. The guy they signed in Peyton,

1185
00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:30,600
Speaker 3: big deal, Josh Hart making twelve million dollars this year.

1186
00:57:30,720 --> 00:57:35,160
Speaker 3: Next year, they got cheaper versions of them in Mattis

1187
00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:37,280
Speaker 3: Stible and cam Radish and they got a first round pick.

1188
00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:42,120
Speaker 3: Their floor is definitely lower. You could say maybe they

1189
00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:44,520
Speaker 3: raise their ceiling because you know what Josh Hart and

1190
00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:47,040
Speaker 3: Gary Payton are. Take a flyer on Camradish and you

1191
00:57:47,080 --> 00:57:49,120
Speaker 3: get a first round pick. Yeah, I'm not buying into

1192
00:57:49,160 --> 00:57:51,160
Speaker 3: Kevin Knox. We watched him at Summer Leak. He just

1193
00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:53,000
Speaker 3: ever since the nixt draft of him, he just he

1194
00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:57,280
Speaker 3: just wasn't it. So there's they're they're trimming around the

1195
00:57:57,360 --> 00:58:00,000
Speaker 3: edges and it doesn't it's not gonna make their team

1196
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:01,920
Speaker 3: better on the floor right now. But yeah, you're you're

1197
00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:04,240
Speaker 3: taking a big chance with Cam Reddish and your direction

1198
00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:06,760
Speaker 3: is directionless to some degree.

1199
00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:09,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'm fascinated to see what they do with

1200
00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:11,960
Speaker 2: Jeremy Grant here. And here's the other part. I don't

1201
00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:13,800
Speaker 2: know if you read that article on the Athletic from

1202
00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:17,480
Speaker 2: uh RJ. Jason Quick a lot in that about all

1203
00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:20,640
Speaker 2: these guys that ultimately left the Blazers couldn't wait to

1204
00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:24,440
Speaker 2: get out of there, Gary Payton. The second included like

1205
00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:28,520
Speaker 2: they just like a norm everybody sort of ecstatic to

1206
00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:31,320
Speaker 2: get out of Portland, which is they sort of shocked

1207
00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:33,120
Speaker 2: me a little bit. But I don't know what's that

1208
00:58:33,240 --> 00:58:37,000
Speaker 2: speaking to just the coaching the front office. Could it

1209
00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:40,120
Speaker 2: be a you know, being Lillard's team and the dynamic

1210
00:58:40,120 --> 00:58:44,400
Speaker 2: of that, I don't know, for vampires to check for vampires.

1211
00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:48,160
Speaker 2: He had some garlic in that locker, so weird to hear.

1212
00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:49,480
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, I.

1213
00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:52,400
Speaker 4: Guess Billups has a kind of grading style as a coach.

1214
00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:55,240
Speaker 4: He's calling out players all the time, which maybe that's

1215
00:58:55,240 --> 00:59:00,240
Speaker 4: a problem when your team is bad and not winning anything. Yeah,

1216
00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:03,240
Speaker 4: I mean, if players are trying to get away from Portland,

1217
00:59:03,280 --> 00:59:04,680
Speaker 4: how do you lure players.

1218
00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:07,160
Speaker 2: In Yeah, yeah, to Portland. All right, let's do one

1219
00:59:07,160 --> 00:59:09,560
Speaker 2: more round here we got for a loser on the trade.

1220
00:59:09,600 --> 00:59:13,280
Speaker 3: Well quick, when John Collins, he's in the winner. He

1221
00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:14,360
Speaker 3: didn't get him the news.

1222
00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:16,800
Speaker 4: We should have put in an offer. I'd you get

1223
00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:17,160
Speaker 4: him here?

1224
00:59:20,600 --> 00:59:23,360
Speaker 3: What would it take for Johnny?

1225
00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:26,640
Speaker 2: What would the Hawks be interested in that we have?

1226
00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:29,680
Speaker 2: Then we could get John Calls and just join our show.

1227
00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:34,280
Speaker 4: Good question. We gotta throw in some second round picks,

1228
00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:34,680
Speaker 4: of course.

1229
00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:39,120
Speaker 2: Maybe that's why we've been building up Eshua. I'm promising

1230
00:59:39,200 --> 00:59:43,720
Speaker 2: Young JD. Putting him on the table. Sorry, we don't

1231
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:44,200
Speaker 2: want to trade it.

1232
00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:47,360
Speaker 3: He's got some scales on the basketball floor too. Maybe

1233
00:59:47,400 --> 00:59:49,600
Speaker 3: we could deal him for John Collins. John Collins has

1234
00:59:49,640 --> 00:59:52,840
Speaker 3: been in the trade rumor meal for his whole career.

1235
00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:58,560
Speaker 3: Feels like every single season. So it feels like every

1236
00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:00,800
Speaker 3: year that it's the one and it wasn't the one.

1237
01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:02,800
Speaker 3: This year he's still with the Hawks and he's a loser.

1238
01:00:03,200 --> 01:00:05,720
Speaker 3: I suppose just because it's gonna happen again next year, but.

1239
01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:07,720
Speaker 2: Also the next year could happen this offseason. I already

1240
01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:11,880
Speaker 2: tweeted it. I officially started the rumor. John Collins is

1241
01:00:11,880 --> 01:00:14,640
Speaker 2: on the trade block. Nice I'm getting ahead of it.

1242
01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:16,240
Speaker 2: I believe that I didn't even schedule the tweets.

1243
01:00:17,360 --> 01:00:22,440
Speaker 3: You retweeted something from twenty fourteen. I mean, it's unfortunate

1244
01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:24,919
Speaker 3: for also, not just because he wasn't traded, but because

1245
01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:27,560
Speaker 3: they traded for Sidik Bay, who's a young player who

1246
01:00:27,600 --> 01:00:30,440
Speaker 3: can score, who can shoot the three, even though the

1247
01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:33,560
Speaker 3: percentages aren't great. I imagine he's going to take some

1248
01:00:33,560 --> 01:00:37,680
Speaker 3: minutes from John Collins if they're trading second rounders for him,

1249
01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:42,440
Speaker 3: So they got deeper at his position, and that's just

1250
01:00:42,520 --> 01:00:44,560
Speaker 3: a It's a scenario where I think they want more

1251
01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:46,600
Speaker 3: three point shooting from that position. So that's why I

1252
01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:48,800
Speaker 3: think Bay, who had a fifty point game last year,

1253
01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:52,400
Speaker 3: if you remember, he can shoot it, but he took

1254
01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:55,360
Speaker 3: some bad shots. And that's why Detroit was comfortable letting

1255
01:00:55,440 --> 01:00:57,600
Speaker 3: him go. There was always a weird thing going on

1256
01:00:57,640 --> 01:00:59,440
Speaker 3: with Detroit where he was. He was upset that he

1257
01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:01,040
Speaker 3: went to the bench. You know, much like John Collins,

1258
01:01:01,080 --> 01:01:03,880
Speaker 3: who's had a diminished role in Atlanta, it only gets

1259
01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:08,760
Speaker 3: more and more diminished. But he's still there. So that's

1260
01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:11,600
Speaker 3: unfortunate for Johnny. But you know, we'll be in talk,

1261
01:01:11,760 --> 01:01:12,440
Speaker 3: We'll be in touch.

1262
01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:16,400
Speaker 2: But it sounds like John Collins can blame Sons owner

1263
01:01:16,440 --> 01:01:20,480
Speaker 2: Matt Isshpia for this. By all accounts, that was going

1264
01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:22,360
Speaker 2: to be the move. John Collins was going to be

1265
01:01:22,400 --> 01:01:25,600
Speaker 2: going to the Phoenix Suns and then is like, hold on,

1266
01:01:25,640 --> 01:01:29,840
Speaker 2: hold on, Collins, how do you get Colin Kevin Durant

1267
01:01:30,040 --> 01:01:32,920
Speaker 2: and get him in here? Right, That's what they were saying.

1268
01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:35,400
Speaker 2: It may have been close to Sons Hawks deal. I

1269
01:01:35,400 --> 01:01:37,440
Speaker 2: don't know what the who would have been coming back

1270
01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:41,520
Speaker 2: in that sort of sort of structure. I assumed Ja Crowder, Yeah, yeah,

1271
01:01:41,840 --> 01:01:43,000
Speaker 2: uh who you got there? TK?

1272
01:01:43,120 --> 01:01:43,520
Speaker 5: Who else?

1273
01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:44,360
Speaker 3: You know?

1274
01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:48,040
Speaker 4: I know what the Pistons are doing trading for James Wiseman.

1275
01:01:48,080 --> 01:01:51,360
Speaker 4: They want the redraft. They see a talented young dude

1276
01:01:51,400 --> 01:01:53,640
Speaker 4: and think I can fix him. But I don't really

1277
01:01:53,680 --> 01:01:55,120
Speaker 4: get why they're doing that.

1278
01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:56,920
Speaker 3: What are they doing?

1279
01:01:57,600 --> 01:01:59,920
Speaker 4: They got Marvin Bagley on the roster, now, they got Wiseman,

1280
01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:03,160
Speaker 4: they got Nerlin's noel, They've got Isaiah Stewart, and they've

1281
01:02:03,160 --> 01:02:05,560
Speaker 4: got Jalen Duran, who is the center of the future

1282
01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:09,480
Speaker 4: for this team. Somehow, the Pistons are still playing paying

1283
01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:13,440
Speaker 4: Dwayne Deadman and DeAndre Jordan, and they've been on multiple

1284
01:02:13,440 --> 01:02:17,360
Speaker 4: teams since. Doesn't make sense to me. I understand maybe

1285
01:02:17,680 --> 01:02:21,080
Speaker 4: that Wiseman could be worth a swing, but he's not

1286
01:02:21,280 --> 01:02:23,440
Speaker 4: really a pick and roll big man. I don't think

1287
01:02:23,480 --> 01:02:27,080
Speaker 4: we saw the Warriors try to force that with Steph Curry.

1288
01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:30,400
Speaker 4: He just doesn't have the speed or the hands or

1289
01:02:30,520 --> 01:02:33,480
Speaker 4: being able to get like jump off the floor very

1290
01:02:33,560 --> 01:02:37,200
Speaker 4: quickly to be a real rim roller. Their number one

1291
01:02:37,280 --> 01:02:40,600
Speaker 4: draft pick Kake Cunningham, he's a roll ball handler as

1292
01:02:40,640 --> 01:02:43,160
Speaker 4: his IVY. Like they need to have the rim running

1293
01:02:43,160 --> 01:02:46,760
Speaker 4: big who they already have, so they brought in Wiseman.

1294
01:02:47,280 --> 01:02:49,800
Speaker 4: But then they didn't trade Alec Burks or boy On Bogdanovic.

1295
01:02:50,680 --> 01:02:53,000
Speaker 4: They traded the twenty three year old Sadiq bay I

1296
01:02:53,080 --> 01:02:55,120
Speaker 4: already had a fifty point game once. Yeah, maybe he

1297
01:02:55,200 --> 01:02:55,880
Speaker 4: chucks too much.

1298
01:02:55,880 --> 01:02:57,720
Speaker 5: Who hairs their team is bad.

1299
01:02:57,800 --> 01:03:01,120
Speaker 4: It's okay if one bad shooter takes a bunch of shots.

1300
01:03:01,160 --> 01:03:05,640
Speaker 4: Just weird stuff from the Pistons all around. And I

1301
01:03:05,640 --> 01:03:07,640
Speaker 4: mean they didn't really give up a ton yeah in

1302
01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:10,720
Speaker 4: doing this, but it's like we're talking about having a plan.

1303
01:03:11,160 --> 01:03:14,040
Speaker 4: It doesn't feel like the Pistons have one, except for

1304
01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:16,840
Speaker 4: they just want to, like continue to honor Darko Milicic.

1305
01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:19,439
Speaker 4: If you were a big man who was drafted number

1306
01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:22,720
Speaker 4: two and you haven't lived up the expectations come to Detroit.

1307
01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:28,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, the bag League trade last year, we all thought

1308
01:03:28,440 --> 01:03:32,000
Speaker 3: it's the well by low see what happens. And then

1309
01:03:32,040 --> 01:03:34,200
Speaker 3: they signed him to a three year deal where he's

1310
01:03:34,320 --> 01:03:35,040
Speaker 3: getting paid a lot.

1311
01:03:35,520 --> 01:03:37,400
Speaker 5: He played really well when he last year.

1312
01:03:37,960 --> 01:03:40,200
Speaker 3: Yes, he has been injured this year. And then they

1313
01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:42,280
Speaker 3: went and got another one here in James Wiseman, who

1314
01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:45,600
Speaker 3: has not played well through his young career.

1315
01:03:46,120 --> 01:03:48,320
Speaker 2: I think James Wiseman is going to play a lot

1316
01:03:48,320 --> 01:03:50,520
Speaker 2: better in the Pistons system than he did.

1317
01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:54,240
Speaker 3: Yes, indeed, I think it's fines. I think it's it's fine.

1318
01:03:54,480 --> 01:03:56,240
Speaker 3: The question is if if he's going to be happy

1319
01:03:56,240 --> 01:04:01,320
Speaker 3: with his role. Like Trey said, Jalen Duran's gonna play now.

1320
01:04:01,280 --> 01:04:02,880
Speaker 2: Wiseman doesn't have much choice.

1321
01:04:03,080 --> 01:04:05,200
Speaker 3: I mean, well, he might not be good. Yeah if

1322
01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:07,160
Speaker 3: he doesn't. If he doesn't play and he's in a

1323
01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:10,040
Speaker 3: happy camper, then may not be long for this league.

1324
01:04:10,200 --> 01:04:11,800
Speaker 3: I mean, he's got a lot of he's got a

1325
01:04:11,800 --> 01:04:13,760
Speaker 3: lot of talent. But they traded away Sadee Bee because

1326
01:04:13,760 --> 01:04:15,640
Speaker 3: he wasn't all that happy with his role. James Wiseman.

1327
01:04:15,800 --> 01:04:17,120
Speaker 3: I just wonder if he's not gonna be all that

1328
01:04:17,160 --> 01:04:19,880
Speaker 3: happy with his role so TVD, it's like it's like

1329
01:04:19,920 --> 01:04:22,439
Speaker 3: a flyer, lots of flyers, but you can't just sign

1330
01:04:22,480 --> 01:04:24,480
Speaker 3: a guy like Bagley and just sign him and say

1331
01:04:25,720 --> 01:04:27,360
Speaker 3: and just hope he's gonna be good because you pay

1332
01:04:27,400 --> 01:04:30,360
Speaker 3: him money. So I wonder if Wiseman is sort of

1333
01:04:30,360 --> 01:04:33,040
Speaker 3: in that that same boat. Are they just gonna pay

1334
01:04:33,080 --> 01:04:35,840
Speaker 3: another big just because even if he doesn't perform over

1335
01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:38,160
Speaker 3: these next twenty games. Like I guess Bagley was fine

1336
01:04:38,200 --> 01:04:42,560
Speaker 3: last year. He put up numbers. But uh, yeah, they're

1337
01:04:42,600 --> 01:04:45,360
Speaker 3: lucky in that they don't have a max anywhere close

1338
01:04:45,400 --> 01:04:47,040
Speaker 3: to a MAX guy, so they can just pay a

1339
01:04:47,040 --> 01:04:48,000
Speaker 3: bunch of guys right now.

1340
01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:50,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna give the Nuggets a loser of the

1341
01:04:50,480 --> 01:04:53,400
Speaker 2: trade deadline, and not because they went and got Thomas Bryant,

1342
01:04:53,520 --> 01:04:55,440
Speaker 2: not because they lost bones Like I like Brian as

1343
01:04:55,480 --> 01:04:57,520
Speaker 2: a backup to Joker. We talked about it one of

1344
01:04:57,520 --> 01:05:00,480
Speaker 2: the podcasts yesterday. They saw a need, they tried to

1345
01:05:00,520 --> 01:05:03,680
Speaker 2: address it. That's fine. The real reason I think they

1346
01:05:03,720 --> 01:05:06,800
Speaker 2: are maybe a loser of the trade deadline is the

1347
01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:09,880
Speaker 2: rest of the West was much more aggressive than they were,

1348
01:05:10,240 --> 01:05:12,760
Speaker 2: and they might be leaning into the continuity and look,

1349
01:05:12,800 --> 01:05:14,720
Speaker 2: we're the number one team in the West, and we

1350
01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:18,320
Speaker 2: like our team. Murray's balling out now. Michael Porter Junior

1351
01:05:18,360 --> 01:05:21,040
Speaker 2: obviously is you know, he's streaky, but he can win

1352
01:05:21,080 --> 01:05:23,160
Speaker 2: you games. So maybe they're just in love with their

1353
01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:25,360
Speaker 2: team and that's fine. But the Grizzlies just to go

1354
01:05:25,400 --> 01:05:27,520
Speaker 2: through it again. They added a shooter, that was one

1355
01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:30,720
Speaker 2: thing they really needed. They got Lukenart Clippers. They addressed

1356
01:05:30,720 --> 01:05:34,479
Speaker 2: a backup center, which was a huge weakness for them

1357
01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:38,000
Speaker 2: in the plumb Dog. They got Eric Gordon, they got Bones.

1358
01:05:38,120 --> 01:05:40,040
Speaker 2: The Lakers, okay, they look like much more of a

1359
01:05:40,160 --> 01:05:43,760
Speaker 2: team around Lebron James. There are pieces that you can play.

1360
01:05:43,840 --> 01:05:45,840
Speaker 2: The Wolves got Mike Conley Junior. They're hoping that's a

1361
01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:48,440
Speaker 2: better fit than Dangel Russell. The Mavericks got Kyrie Irving,

1362
01:05:48,600 --> 01:05:50,920
Speaker 2: and of course the Suns are now the favorites to

1363
01:05:50,960 --> 01:05:52,960
Speaker 2: a lot of people. You can push back on that.

1364
01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:54,600
Speaker 2: I think if you're a Nuggets fan, like hold On,

1365
01:05:54,640 --> 01:05:57,520
Speaker 2: hold On. First off, those guys generally are not healthy

1366
01:05:57,560 --> 01:05:59,480
Speaker 2: a lot of the time. In Katie, Chris Paul and

1367
01:05:59,520 --> 01:06:02,280
Speaker 2: even Booker with an injury, and then they're probably shall

1368
01:06:02,680 --> 01:06:05,120
Speaker 2: But they got Kevin Durant and that's like a hell

1369
01:06:05,120 --> 01:06:07,280
Speaker 2: of a hell of a guy to overcome. So I think,

1370
01:06:07,360 --> 01:06:10,440
Speaker 2: just with everything else going on in the West, a tiny,

1371
01:06:10,480 --> 01:06:14,800
Speaker 2: tiny little l to the Denver Nuggets, just with everything

1372
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:17,000
Speaker 2: that went down. Agree or disagree.

1373
01:06:18,600 --> 01:06:21,800
Speaker 3: I wish they had another guard, but I guess they could.

1374
01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:23,200
Speaker 3: As we talked about, they could get him in the

1375
01:06:23,240 --> 01:06:25,640
Speaker 3: buyout market over here.

1376
01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:27,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, hell yeah they could.

1377
01:06:27,240 --> 01:06:28,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, they can get a decent one just to be

01:08:26,920 --> 01:08:27,679
Speaker 5: It's so similar.

1426
01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:29,479
Speaker 8: This is a YouTube song. We're not going to get

1427
01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:31,160
Speaker 8: the whole point of this.

1428
01:08:31,240 --> 01:08:31,400
Speaker 3: Oh.

1429
01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:32,439

01:08:41,240 --> 01:08:45,439
Speaker 3: a huge favorite at home eight and a half points.

1433
01:08:45,479 --> 01:08:49,280
Speaker 3: Because Minnesota doesn't have D'angela Russell. I'm a little confused.

1434
01:08:49,320 --> 01:08:52,559
Speaker 3: There's something else going on here, but Tray and I

1435
01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:59,720
Speaker 3: think I'm not sure. No, I have no idea. I

1436
01:08:59,720 --> 01:09:01,719
Speaker 3: don't we think Train and I think they can cover

1437
01:09:01,840 --> 01:09:05,639
Speaker 3: that eight point spread. Its just lose by eight and

1438
01:09:05,760 --> 01:09:07,720

1448
01:09:40,560 --> 01:09:44,200
Speaker 3: that is disgusting. It's almost unbelievable. But Dane Moore said it,

1449
01:09:44,240 --> 01:09:46,920
Speaker 3: so it must be true. What's something you do that

1450
01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:49,479
Speaker 3: others would find revolting? Skeets.

1451
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:51,800

01:09:51,840 --> 01:09:56,559
Speaker 2: wife does. Nora does. I'll put a stirfry that she

1453
01:09:56,680 --> 01:10:00,240

01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:31,240
Speaker 2: I will, I I just like to use a Fahata

01:10:31,320 --> 01:10:34,600
Speaker 2: wrap for for everything, Like I'll substitute it for a

1466
01:10:34,600 --> 01:10:36,680
Speaker 2: lot of things, Like, you know, I don't think it's

1467
01:10:36,680 --> 01:10:38,639
Speaker 2: crazy by any means, but like instead of toast, I'll

1468
01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:40,439
Speaker 2: use it, like with eggs and stuff like that. Like

1469
01:10:40,479 --> 01:10:41,639
Speaker 2: I love, I love.

1470

Speaker 2: I love a good container. I just love the thinness

1472
01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:46,760
Speaker 2: of it. I'll take it, you know, throw it in

1473
01:10:46,800 --> 01:10:51,360
Speaker 2: the toaster for fifteen seconds, get a little crisp to it. Yeah.

1474
01:10:51,600 --> 01:10:53,840

1475
01:10:54,160 --> 01:10:57,120
Speaker 3: you know, a thin tortilla type thing with the black

1476
01:10:57,120 --> 01:10:58,439
Speaker 3: sauce with that. I don't even know what it's called.

1477
01:10:59,320 --> 01:11:02,120
Speaker 2: She just likes it's really weird, like the flavors of

1478
01:11:02,200 --> 01:11:04,439
Speaker 2: ginger and stuff like that, to then have in a

1479
01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:05,040

1482
01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:15,679
Speaker 2: like to confront her, boy eat.

1483
01:11:15,920 --> 01:11:20,840
Speaker 3: Maybe she is making she's making the stuff fright. Maybe

1484
01:11:20,880 --> 01:11:23,120
Speaker 3: she just doesn't want it to change forms, you know.

1485
01:11:23,280 --> 01:11:27,439
Speaker 3: Maybe she's just like this is it. I put my blood,

1486
01:11:27,439 --> 01:11:28,439
Speaker 3: sweat and tears into this.

1487
01:11:28,800 --> 01:11:30,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe all right.

1488
01:11:31,280 --> 01:11:36,720
Speaker 4: I love cleaning toilets bare handed. Oh yeah, I mean,

1489
01:11:36,760 --> 01:11:37,839
Speaker 4: why would you wear gloves?

1490
01:11:37,880 --> 01:11:41,040
Speaker 3: But it's just like you don't use a brush.

1491
01:11:41,880 --> 01:11:43,760
Speaker 4: I don't. I mean, yeah, I use a brush for

1492
01:11:43,800 --> 01:11:48,760
Speaker 4: the swirly swirly swirls. But on the rim, yeah, I'm

1493
01:11:48,800 --> 01:11:53,320
Speaker 4: going wipe job, you know, like the toilet paper with

1494
01:11:53,400 --> 01:11:56,920
Speaker 4: the bleach wipe. Yeah, it feels nice, get it clean.

1495
01:11:57,040 --> 01:11:59,559
Speaker 4: Looks awesome to feel like you accomplished something. And guess what,

1496
01:11:59,600 --> 01:12:02,160
Speaker 4: it goes quick rh like down on your hands and

1497
01:12:02,200 --> 01:12:07,120
Speaker 4: he's getting dirty and grindy, sweaty poops. Yea, stinks everywhere,

1498
01:12:07,680 --> 01:12:09,599
Speaker 4: but it's all good because you made a nice move.

1499
01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:10,439
Speaker 4: But it's done in three minutes.

1500
01:12:10,479 --> 01:12:13,520
Speaker 2: You know, you should try use a faina wraplet.

1501
01:12:15,720 --> 01:12:20,559
Speaker 3: I'm out on surf right now. Yeah, all right, sounds

1502
01:12:20,560 --> 01:12:23,960
Speaker 3: like it could be satisfying. I don't do it anymore. Well,

1503
01:12:23,960 --> 01:12:26,280
Speaker 3: once upon a time, I have to hear you, all right, Dree.

1504
01:12:26,960 --> 01:12:30,000
Speaker 6: I'm actually wondering what the court of public opinion is

1505
01:12:30,000 --> 01:12:31,719
Speaker 6: on this, because it's been just all over the place

1506
01:12:31,720 --> 01:12:35,799
Speaker 6: over like human history, and it's been gone from Canada

1507
01:12:35,840 --> 01:12:38,160
Speaker 6: for so long, so I never hear it talked about.

1508
01:12:38,760 --> 01:12:42,639
Speaker 3: I love Arby's, I love this army. I can't say,

1509
01:12:42,680 --> 01:12:43,920
Speaker 3: I love Arbies.

1510
01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:44,800
Speaker 2: I grew up with it.

1511
01:12:44,920 --> 01:12:46,960
Speaker 6: My dad and I ate it together. I like when

1512
01:12:47,040 --> 01:12:49,920
Speaker 6: I travel out to Atlanta at Hartsfield, I'll pick up

1513
01:12:49,920 --> 01:12:50,719
Speaker 6: a beef and cheddar.

1514
01:12:50,880 --> 01:12:52,040
Speaker 4: Wow.

1515
01:12:52,760 --> 01:12:54,559
Speaker 6: But I have no idea because, like I know, for

1516
01:12:54,680 --> 01:12:56,880
Speaker 6: a good long time, Arby's was the butt of every

1517
01:12:56,920 --> 01:12:59,280
Speaker 6: fast food joke, almost to the level that it was

1518
01:12:59,320 --> 01:13:01,519
Speaker 6: like a conspiracy. It seemed like and like the big

1519
01:13:01,640 --> 01:13:05,720
Speaker 6: Arby had to be taken down. But I'm curious wh

1520
01:13:05,720 --> 01:13:07,960
Speaker 6: we're right now, because I know people would come out

1521
01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:12,080
Speaker 6: and defend it, And so where do we stand on Arby's.

1522
01:13:12,200 --> 01:13:13,360
Speaker 5: I have no idea.

1523
01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:19,920
Speaker 4: Look, no pun intended. I'm beefing. Look, we had big

1524
01:13:19,960 --> 01:13:22,960
Speaker 4: beef for a long time. It was inspired by Arby's commercials.

1525
01:13:24,280 --> 01:13:26,840
Speaker 4: Not only did they never sponsor it, they sent out

1526
01:13:27,080 --> 01:13:34,639
Speaker 4: beef costumes two people all over, a bunch of influencers. Fine, fine,

1527
01:13:34,680 --> 01:13:36,920
Speaker 4: we're not top of the list when it comes to beef.

1528
01:13:37,360 --> 01:13:39,639
Speaker 4: We should be, but we not the thing that pushed

1529
01:13:39,640 --> 01:13:43,519
Speaker 4: me over the edge. In their new commercials, there's a

Speaker 8: I eat the cartilage okay, but the bones left over,

1591
01:16:26,720 --> 01:16:28,960
Speaker 8: it's like they've been bleached in the sun for a

1592
01:16:29,120 --> 01:16:32,479
Speaker 8: thousand years like that, that's how clean they are. And

1593
01:16:32,600 --> 01:16:35,599

01:19:38,000 --> 01:19:43,120
Speaker 4: Track When we moved here from Toronto, we had to

1656
01:19:43,240 --> 01:19:45,720
Speaker 4: get new phones because you know, we we were on

1657
01:19:45,800 --> 01:19:49,479
Speaker 4: Canadian plans. We went to United States plans. Get you

1658
01:19:49,520 --> 01:19:54,880
Speaker 4: a new phone. I got the iPhone five C trash,

1659
01:19:55,400 --> 01:19:57,639
Speaker 4: just a complete garbage phone. It felt like a toy.

1660
01:19:57,800 --> 01:20:02,559
Speaker 3: That color, that colorful ones mine was like a light Yes, exactly.

1661
01:20:02,680 --> 01:20:05,160
Speaker 4: It felt so plastic y. You know, you're used to

1662
01:20:06,320 --> 01:20:09,120
Speaker 4: a high tech iPhone, it just feels like a piece

1663
01:20:09,160 --> 01:20:12,920
Speaker 4: of space age technology, like the cool hard glass on

1664
01:20:12,960 --> 01:20:15,760
Speaker 4: the front and the back. When you're looking at a

1665
01:20:15,960 --> 01:20:20,280
Speaker 4: bright green phone every day, you feel like a straight up.

1666
01:20:22,360 --> 01:20:22,880

1667
01:20:22,960 --> 01:20:25,880

1669
01:20:27,200 --> 01:20:28,680
Speaker 4: be like a two month wait to get it in.

1670
01:20:28,720 --> 01:20:30,360
Speaker 4: I was like, I gotta have a phone. Then I

1671
01:20:30,360 --> 01:20:32,599
Speaker 4: had to have it for two years looking like a child.

1672
01:20:32,720 --> 01:20:34,920
Speaker 4: That's what the C stands for. It's like color, but

1673
01:20:34,960 --> 01:20:36,920
Speaker 4: it's like, no, this is a kid's phone. This is

1674
01:20:36,920 --> 01:20:37,639
Speaker 4: a child phone.

1679
01:20:49,479 --> 01:20:51,320

01:21:39,600 --> 01:21:44,280
Speaker 8: and they're done early, like the second half of a play,

1699
01:21:44,320 --> 01:21:48,720
Speaker 8: then they're only in the first act and you.

1700
01:21:48,160 --> 01:21:50,559
Speaker 2: Know you're not gonna see them for the rest of.

1708
01:22:11,120 --> 01:22:13,360
Speaker 8: because I've had them be at the end and then

1709
01:22:13,439 --> 01:22:16,800
Speaker 8: be in an empty room and they're playing and it's

1710
01:22:16,880 --> 01:22:20,680

1724
01:23:04,040 --> 01:23:05,400
Speaker 2: What do you mean I thought there was a bunch

1725
01:23:05,400 --> 01:23:08,000
Speaker 2: of other of course, you're in Memphis.

1726

Speaker 5: There's some grown ups. Yeah, yeah, for sure.

1727
01:23:09,479 --> 01:23:11,840
Speaker 8: But the kids show the showcase that I was at

1728
01:23:12,000 --> 01:23:13,679
Speaker 8: was all, oh, gotcha?

1729
01:23:14,320 --> 01:23:17,200
Speaker 3: All right, last one here. Despite a whole lot of

1730
01:23:17,280 --> 01:23:19,880
Speaker 3: rumors we talked about the Hawks. John Collins wasn't traded

1731
01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:22,680
Speaker 3: this week for like the tenth, eleventh, five hundred, the

1732
01:23:22,720 --> 01:23:25,559
Speaker 3: year in a row. He wasn't dealt. What's something you've

1733
01:23:25,600 --> 01:23:28,920
Speaker 3: been waiting on but it just hasn't happened yet. Skeets

1734
01:23:29,640 --> 01:23:30,519
Speaker 3: breaking a bone.

1735
01:23:31,840 --> 01:23:34,599
Speaker 2: I can't believe it. Yeah, I lived my life pretty

1736
01:23:34,640 --> 01:23:39,479
Speaker 2: recklessly and I have somehow never broke a bone. That's good,

1737
01:23:39,479 --> 01:23:41,800
Speaker 2: And I almost wonder if it's ever gonna happen.

1738
01:23:42,120 --> 01:23:42,479
Speaker 3: I don't know.

1739
01:23:42,520 --> 01:23:43,880
Speaker 2: Maybe it's all the chitahs in me.

1740
01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:45,360
Speaker 5: Didn't you break a tone once?

1741
01:23:46,000 --> 01:23:48,760
Speaker 2: No? No, well, well I guess I could have. I

1742
01:23:48,760 --> 01:23:51,479
Speaker 2: didn't go and get it checked or get it splintered

1743
01:23:51,560 --> 01:23:52,679
Speaker 2: up or cast up. That's possible.

1744
01:23:52,720 --> 01:23:54,800
Speaker 5: It doesn't really count because to me, that doesn't count.

1745
01:23:54,840 --> 01:23:55,800
Speaker 5: I need to sign.

1746
01:23:56,040 --> 01:24:00,200

1747
01:24:00,240 --> 01:24:02,439
Speaker 2: would want to break over any sort of leg.

1748
01:24:02,520 --> 01:24:04,000
Speaker 4: Or oh yeah, much better.
