1
00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:04,000
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports.

2
00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 2: Greetings and welcome in. You know, the more you prep

3
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:10,200
Speaker 2: for things, well just expect it all to change. That

4
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:13,160
Speaker 2: is the beauty of the sporting universe. As we get

5
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:16,799
Speaker 2: ready for another beautiful Fox Sports Sunday, I almost said

6
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 2: Fox Football Sunday. Almost jumped the gun getting into the closer.

7
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 2: I've got football up on one of the monitors. Yes,

8
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,800
Speaker 2: it's replay Central where we're talking about the Bills and

9
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 2: the Chiefs. We got some action on the pitch. Major

10
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 2: League Baseball will start its day soon enough, a lot

11
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 2: of NBA stories starting to swirl about, so I wrapped

12
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:39,599
Speaker 2: attention to all of that. Greetings and welcome in. I'm

13
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:42,520
Speaker 2: Mike Carmen alongside me my guy, my tag team partner,

14
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 2: Dan Byer. You hear him during the week with Doug

15
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 2: Gottlieb and Cavino and Rich Are I watch a Flex podcast.

16
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 2: We've got some smattering of stuff for the off season,

17
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 2: some of the division previews. We'll get deeper into the

18
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 2: AFC South as deep as you can go in the

19
00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 2: AFC South in a little bit. But with a lot

20
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 2: of things swirling around, How are you? How was the week?

21
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 3: Week was good? Great, to be here, Mike.

22
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 4: It's the sun is setting on this NBA year and

23
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 4: it will be rising again. And with the news today,

24
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 4: it's funny you say that you are about to say

25
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 4: football Sundays because Adam Schefter tweeted that there are in

26
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:21,680
Speaker 4: ten Sundays. There's gonna be NFL football ten Sundays away.

27
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 4: I feel like it's twelve Sundays until the next NBA

28
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 4: season starts, because sure it is just absolutely NonStop and

29
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,479
Speaker 4: at times can get tiring, but it just never ends

30
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 4: with the association.

31
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's just it. Right. We barely are

32
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 2: shoveling the little bit of dirt on last season, right,

33
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 2: We've got the plaque going up to commemorate what the

34
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:43,760
Speaker 2: thunder we're able to do. But it seems alike a

35
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 2: lifetime ago. There's been so much transacted because you go

36
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 2: straight from crowning a champion. We had the Kevin Durant

37
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 2: trade break while we were on air last week. That

38
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 2: took some of the no pun intended thunder ohway from

39
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 2: the pun fully intended to the game seven. And then

40
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 2: Halliburton goes down. I think we all collectively winched and grimaced,

41
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 2: and then less than two days later, it's like, all right,

42
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 2: who's getting drafted after the Trooper flag?

43
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 4: Just like that, correct, And then there's another day of

44
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 4: the draft, which may be great for the other thirty teams.

45
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 4: I don't know if it's a television product that's needed,

46
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 4: but then again, it's summer and there's a lot of

47
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 4: television product that's not needed that's that's on TV, So

48
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,240
Speaker 4: I get it. I actually don't have as big of

49
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 4: a gripe with the Thursday Mike. You say it all

50
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,799
Speaker 4: the time. If you don't like it, change the channel.

51
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 4: So if you didn't move on, yeah, if you did

52
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:36,640
Speaker 4: like the second round, move on. But now the draft

53
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,639
Speaker 4: is starting to be kind of in our rearview mirror

54
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 4: because of free agency, and even when it doesn't seem

55
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 4: like it would be news that Lebron James is back

56
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 4: with the Lakers for next season, it sure does feel

57
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 4: like news, especially when you kind of start taking some

58
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 4: of the pieces and peeling that onion back and seeing

59
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 4: what's really at the core of Lebron and his future

60
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 4: in the Lakers future. Him exercising his option for next

61
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 4: year on the surface, not a big story, but I

62
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 4: think as you dig deeper and deeper, it becomes a

63
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 4: really really big story.

64
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, swirling about the last week or so. And look,

65
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 2: we Smith and I've been talking about at a bunch

66
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 2: on our show during during the evenings, feeling like, all right,

67
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,639
Speaker 2: that break is happening. You've got the new ownership coming in.

68
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 2: They're not beholden to any handshake deals that Rich Paul

69
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 2: and Rich Paul's got his whole other thing going on

70
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 2: here that we need to talk about with Phoenix because

71
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 2: you know, sometimes you see how the sausage has meant.

72
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 2: You know it's existing and you believe it to be true,

73
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 2: but sometimes you need that video proof of these things

74
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 2: as to how he was orchestrating things for the draft.

75
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 2: But the power that Clutch Sports has had within that

76
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 2: Laker organization the last couple of years. Again it goes

77
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 2: back to the well, Lebron's and his agents aren't really

78
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 2: calling the shots. This guy's the GM. Did anybody believe

79
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 2: that wholeheartedly?

80
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 5: No?

81
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 2: I think it was a coin flip trying to decide

82
00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 2: who had the power and a situation right, But was

83
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 2: he going to sign a one in one for this

84
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 2: to continue? Or is he just exercising because who's leaving

85
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 2: fifty two point six million dollars on the table. Sure,

86
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 2: but the statement is, you know, pretty clear, right, he

87
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 2: knows the Lakers are building for the future, but values

88
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 2: a realistic chance of winning it all. Okay, so here's

89
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 2: the shot this year. We know what the second apron is,

90
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,599
Speaker 2: how the math works out, it's fuzzy, will leave that

91
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 2: to the professionals. But all of that to say, Lakers

92
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 2: have spent a lot of money. So like some of

93
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 2: the analysis in the post, hey, Mark Walter is coming

94
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 2: in to buy this doesn't suddenly give them a carte

95
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,599
Speaker 2: blanche to do unless there's a bunch of loopholes we

96
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,159
Speaker 2: haven't found yet that nobody's discovered, like Major League Baseball

97
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 2: and deferred payments like that suddenly exists in the language,

98
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 2: which would I be surprised in the NBA language. They're

99
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 2: they're gonna do a bunch of peripheral stuff and background stuff,

100
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 2: and it's going to be a more attractive place to play.

101
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,479
Speaker 2: But it doesn't suddenly give them a giant checkbook to

102
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 2: walk out like the end of a game show.

103
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:07,279
Speaker 3: No, No, and Mike.

104
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 4: When I read this statement from Rich Paul and you

105
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 4: start to piece it together. Marriages can range in a

106
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 4: lot of different ways throughout the spectrum. There are marriages

107
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 4: that are based in love because of the deep, deep

108
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 4: love that each partner has for each other. There are

109
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,359
Speaker 4: others that just work. There may not be as much

110
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 4: love and passion and everything, but they make it work

111
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 4: together and they make that marriage work. And that's what

112
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 4: I feel. The Lakers and Lebron James are that marriage

113
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 4: is each benefits from another in a certain way. They're

114
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,719
Speaker 4: not necessarily truly madly in love with each other, but

115
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 4: it works for Lebron to be in LA and be

116
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 4: a Laker, and it worked for the Lakers to have

117
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 4: Lebron be in LA and wear the purple and gold.

118
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,039
Speaker 4: I think think has changed now, and there's something in

119
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 4: this statement from Rich Paul that's a couple of things

120
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 4: that stood out to be. But I think things really

121
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 4: change with Luca because now you have that passing.

122
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,360
Speaker 3: Of the torch. Anthony Davis.

123
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 4: For as great of a player as he was, he

124
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 4: just wasn't going to be that Laker superstar to carry

125
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,359
Speaker 4: the torch. And now if you're the Lakers, you're like,

126
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 4: how do we build around Luca? And they probably can't

127
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 4: wait to do that sooner rather than later. So when

128
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 4: Rich Paul says, and I'm quoting, he knows the Lakers

129
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 4: are building for the future, he understands that, but he

130
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 4: values a realistic chance of winning at all. That's twice

131
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 4: in the first sentence, two times in the first sentence

132
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 4: that he's alluding to he knows that the Lakers want

133
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 4: to move on building for the future. He understands that,

134
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 4: he gets that, he knows that. To me, that's the

135
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,919
Speaker 4: franchise saying opt in. We're not going to give you

136
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 4: any extension after this point because we want to see

137
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 4: where this franchise goes. And to me, the latter part

138
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 4: of the statement, where he says, we are appreciative of

139
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 4: the partnership we've had for eight years with Genie and

140
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 4: Rob and consider the Lakers as a critical part of

141
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 4: his career. There's no talk about another year after that

142
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 4: or future years or what they could do together. That's

143
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 4: more of a thanks for the last eight years. And

144
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 4: so if Lebron James wants to play in the NBA

145
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 4: pass this upcoming season, which I think he does, it's

146
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 4: doesn't sound like it's going to be in a Lakers uniform.

147
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 4: And then now that feels all the speculation that we

148
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 4: can have for the next twelve months.

149
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 2: Wow, well to see odds, no doubt by time we

150
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 2: get off the absolute day for what his next team is.

151
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 2: Not that those aren't always just dating in the background,

152
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 2: but it becomes the symbolic passing of the torch as

153
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 2: it were Anthony Davis. It seemed like there was the

154
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 2: effort to do it, maybe more so by media because

155
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 2: we loved Anthony Davis until he basically sat out a year, sure,

156
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 2: and then he came and he was a punchline when

157
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 2: he was unavailable, and even now to Dallas, like there's

158
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,679
Speaker 2: a lot of potential excitement for what that team could

159
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 2: be if they were healthy. Right, If everybody shows up

160
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 2: with the video game like power bar at one hundred,

161
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 2: that's great, But most of those guys are zapped down

162
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 2: to fifty percent fifteen games in and you're wondering, you know,

163
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 2: can you get to the end of that level to

164
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 2: reboot and reset? The answer is, I don't know. But

165
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 2: for the Lakers, the fact that it isn't a one

166
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 2: to one means he wasn't taking a dime less, right,

167
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 2: because you could have massaged this a little bit to

168
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 2: give yourself space if you really wanted to. But this

169
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 2: shows me that's fifty three million dollars. That is two

170
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,840
Speaker 2: assets of mid twenties players that you can go back

171
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 2: into the marketplace versus a guy who probably makes you

172
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,080
Speaker 2: more than that. Right, it's a winning proposition from a

173
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 2: business perspective. But now we're talking about getting back to

174
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 2: winning on the court. You've done the rest for the

175
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 2: last decade with Lebron in tow right, You've made a

176
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 2: lot of money. You do have one till people can

177
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 2: debate it. It's not coming down. I don't think there's

178
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 2: an asterisk hanging on it. It's not italicsized unless it's

179
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 2: a Wikipedia page where they want you to click into

180
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 2: a link to explain what happened that season down in Florida.

181
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 2: But otherwise it's a title. So congratulations on a job done.

182
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 2: Was it the runaway, roughshod series of years that you

183
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 2: thought with him playing as well as he did, well, No,

184
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:28,959
Speaker 2: And there's a million other reasons for that part of

185
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 2: being you know, for the union side of it, you're

186
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 2: not going to take less money, right you.

187
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 3: Get now, yeah, right, right now?

188
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 2: I mean, but they did it years ago, and what

189
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:43,600
Speaker 2: was the other than the the Jim Gray hatred of

190
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 2: the show, Like you know, the Union bristled about what

191
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,439
Speaker 2: they did down in Miami, sure right, and and that

192
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 2: was never going to happen again because the saltiness that

193
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:56,200
Speaker 2: flowed out of that.

194
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 4: The only thing that I would I would just say

195
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 4: to that is because we you can't see into the future.

196
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 4: But I do think that there's a possibility that Lebron

197
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:07,880
Speaker 4: and I think this statement says it all will play

198
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 4: elsewhere after the Lakers. It's just where and for how much?

199
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 4: And I don't think that he's going to be asking

200
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,319
Speaker 4: for a lot because what I think Lebron James wants

201
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 4: in this final year of his NBA career, first of all,

202
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 4: with Aaron Rodgers kind of saying this past week, yeah,

203
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 4: this is likely going to be it. This is probably

204
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 4: going to be what we're right off into the sunset

205
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,920
Speaker 4: more than likely him saying that after his work with

206
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 4: the Steelers kind of lets you know, all right, this

207
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 4: is probably it for Aaron Rodgers. But you don't have

208
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 4: this in the NFL. You don't have farewell tours because

209
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 4: you don't play in every stadium, you don't play every team,

210
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 4: you don't have that opportunity, and major League Baseball they've

211
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 4: just started to do that where you're playing everybody every year,

212
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,319
Speaker 4: but you're not in every ballpark every season. The NBA

213
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:57,200
Speaker 4: you do. And we've seen farewell tours before with Julia

214
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 4: serving with Larry Bird, Kareem when guys are seeing it

215
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 4: like three times, rocking chairs given out the whole deal,

216
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 4: the whole deal. Miguel Cabrera did have one in baseball.

217
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 4: I think I just saw a recent clip of when

218
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 4: he called it quits. But the point is is Lebron's

219
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 4: gonna want a farewell to her as well, Mike, and

220
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 4: you know, darn well is gonna let everybody know about it,

221
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 4: and it's gonna be a year of celebrating Lebron like

222
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,839
Speaker 4: this is your last chance. I don't necessarily blame him.

223
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 4: I would love that as well if I was, you know,

224
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 4: put as much into the league that I could. So

225
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 4: if there's anybody that deserves it, it's probably him. But

226
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 4: this just didn't sound like a farewell for Lebron. And

227
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 4: I think at some point that's what he's gonna want.

228
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 4: But this statement sure sounded like it's a farewell to

229
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,959
Speaker 4: the Lakers. After this season. It wasn't even a Lebron

230
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 4: is excited for the twenty five twenty six season.

231
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 2: Running it back with Luca.

232
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, trying to bring a title back to LA and

233
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,840
Speaker 4: win number eighteen. Now there was none of that's he

234
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 4: knows they're building for the few. Sure he understands that

235
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 4: he values a realistic chance. Thanks to the last eight years,

236
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:11,440
Speaker 4: it's been great. That's the statements. So to me, Lebron,

237
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 4: Rich Paul and everybody with Clutch Sports got the message.

238
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 4: The Lakers don't want Lebron back after this season, and

239
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 4: they're ready to move on. And so now Lebron and

240
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 4: the Lakers likely have to pivot as well. And Lebron

241
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 4: I don't think he has any desire to quit after

242
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 4: the season or retire after the season. So I just

243
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 4: think that this sets up the stage for New York

244
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:40,320
Speaker 4: could be a possibility. Cleveland I think would been the

245
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 4: fairy tale. That's what I've always felt like. How about

246
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,680
Speaker 4: signing a one year deal to go to back to

247
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 4: Cleveland and just do a farewell to her? Problem is

248
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,200
Speaker 4: the Cavs are really good in playing for an NBA title,

249
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 4: so you know are in contention. So do you want

250
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,080
Speaker 4: to does he is he added the piece or is

251
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 4: this a distraction? But I just don't think he's back

252
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:59,560
Speaker 4: with the Lakers after this upcoming season from everything that

253
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 4: this state been said.

254
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 2: And he also wants to compete for championships. So do

255
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,319
Speaker 2: you think that podcast he dropped with Steve Nash he

256
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 2: got enough negative? Negative? Yeah, the rings matter. You know

257
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,199
Speaker 2: ring culture. You know that you kind of chase down

258
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 2: to Miami and then became not quite what Kevin Durant

259
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,079
Speaker 2: and Shack We're seen as doing. But you're not You're

260
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 2: not far off.

261
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 4: Well, I'll tell you the rings. The not chasing the

262
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 4: rings now sure fits the narrative because if he's just

263
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 4: talking about a realistic chance they're gonna be good, they

264
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:32,560
Speaker 4: should be better.

265
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 3: Once you have.

266
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 4: A full season of Luca, like he's not just thrown

267
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 4: into the mix, you would hope that you're a better

268
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 4: off in figuring that out. Plus they'll have the ability

269
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 4: in the off season to try to make some moves.

270
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 4: But yeah, this shirt this year reads like a goodbye

271
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 4: in a farewell swan song for Lebron in l a terse.

272
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 2: I mean this this is an extension. You know, Rich

273
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 2: Paul and their influence would talk about it. You know,

274
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,120
Speaker 2: video we were watching before the show will bring it

275
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 2: back into the conversation a little bit next hour, but

276
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 2: you know, trying to have the invisible hand to move

277
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 2: pieces around. And for the Lakers with Genie Buss and

278
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 2: the way things have been run with Rob Polinka, you

279
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:18,959
Speaker 2: had what seemed like a partnership Clutch Sports and the Lakers, right,

280
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 2: and it's like, all right, what do you need from Lebron?

281
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 2: How do we orchestrate this? Well, you brought in Luka doncicch.

282
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 2: That's the end. I mean, that was the beginning of

283
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 2: the end. And now we're getting the statement a week

284
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 2: after the NBA season ends.

285
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 4: I think there's a very good chance that if that

286
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 4: deal doesn't fall in their laps where the Mavericks are

287
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 4: looking to get out of Luka Doncicch or out of

288
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 4: the Luka doncic business, that Lebron finishes his career as

289
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 4: a Laker.

290
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 3: And now the Lakers have pivoted.

291
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,040
Speaker 4: There's even another quote that Chams had from Rich Paul

292
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 4: that said, we understand the difficulty in winning now while

293
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 4: preparing for the future. We do want to evaluate what's

294
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 4: best for Lebron at this stage in his life and career,

295
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 4: that just seems like spin. I think that the Lakers said, well,

296
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 4: have you for twenty five, twenty six, but after that,

297
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 4: we're going to chart our own course. And now Lebron

298
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 4: and his people are trying to angle it in a

299
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 4: way where, hey, we still hold all the cards here,

300
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 4: so we'll exercise our option and then we'll decide what

301
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 4: we want to do.

302
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 2: Yeah. I always want to have at least the appearance

303
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 2: of control, even sometimes it's not, because you've been able

304
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 2: to dictate things for twenty plus years, absolutely even to

305
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 2: getting people bowing to you and calling you the king.

306
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 4: And the Lakers now actually have some sort of They've

307
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 4: got Luca, they've got that ability to be able to say,

308
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 4: you know what, thanks, but no thanks, that trade doesn't

309
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 4: fall into their laps. I think they're just resigned to

310
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 4: the fact that Lebron's going to play out his career

311
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 4: and now.

312
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 2: Oh, it's an interesting week though, right because we still

313
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 2: have to figure out what that contract looks like for Luca.

314
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 2: We know approximate maximums that they can offer him, right,

315
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 2: but Austin Reeves turned down is four year extension. He's

316
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 2: got to get paid. Is he worth what the marketplay?

317
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 2: You know what the top valuation is no chance in

318
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 2: hell in my mind right, he's a deficient defensive player

319
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 2: and you can find a lot of guys to score

320
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 2: twenty points like I like him. But you know, at

321
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 2: that at the evaluation of Max was two fifty. A

322
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 2: Max somewhere else is one to eighty nine. Someone else

323
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 2: wants to pay him one eighty nine for four years

324
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 2: he's gone. But you lose that contract, and you lose

325
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 2: Lebron's That opens up a lot of opportunity.

326
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 4: To go in absolutely for Luca, and there will be

327
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 4: people who want to play in LA, and there will

328
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 4: be players that want to play for Luca.

329
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 3: I've played with him.

330
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 4: I felt that even in Dallas like that was going

331
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 4: to give them an advantage and didn't.

332
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 3: Necessarily.

333
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 4: It took a turn where maybe Luca did have a

334
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 4: little bit too much power, too much say too much

335
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 4: about Luca. But I think that can change in LA

336
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 4: and makes it a very very appealing spot for anybody

337
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:51,120
Speaker 4: that wants to play.

338
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 2: So there's your early Sunday morning when Lebron back in

339
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 2: the news, Well, the offseason began, he had to do

340
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 2: something and this actually had legitimate business concerns, not just Hey,

341
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 2: I did a podcast with Steve Nash. We're here at

342
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 2: the Fox Sports Radio Los Angeles studios. He's Dan Buyer

Speaker 2: everybody getting together. I've had a couple of mocks already.

348
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 2: We'll continue to mock, and this time it's the AFC South,

349
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 2: so maybe we actually do the mocking for real. We'll

350
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 2: figure it out as we continue here on Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 2: Greetings and welcome back in Fox Sports Radio Fox Sports Sunday,

365
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,920
Speaker 2: Mike Carbon alongside Dan Bayer, thanks for being with us.

366
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 2: Already traversing the world of the NBA this morning Lebron

367
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:31,920
Speaker 2: James Opson and basically says goodbye. So now, uh, I'm

368
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 2: gonna start fashioning a rocking chair to hand out at

369
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,119
Speaker 2: a game to be named later, maybe some other sundry gifts.

370
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 2: I don't know.

371
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 4: It's it feels the speculation, Mike, It sure does. You

372
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:45,920
Speaker 4: know he's going to have a farewell tour. He's not

373
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 4: just going to retire, no, like he's gonna announce it

374
00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:51,919
Speaker 4: that this is going to that it will whenever it is,

375
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:53,199
Speaker 4: it will be his last.

376
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,440
Speaker 2: So this year with the Lakers and then for now

377
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 2: a giant question mark. But as we know, the invisible

378
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 2: hand of Rich Paul always working. We've got some draft

379
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 2: day footage that came out that also shows that hand

380
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 2: and mouthpiece at work. We'll get into that next hour

381
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,000
Speaker 2: on the show. But we've been doing the division by

382
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,719
Speaker 2: division preview for fantasy football. The iwatcher Flex podcast up

383
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 2: wherever you get your audio downloaded, give it five stars.

384
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,719
Speaker 2: We'll love you forever. Send it to friends and family

385
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 2: as we continue to our quest for global domination in

386
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:29,880
Speaker 2: the fantasy realm as well as what we do here

387
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,640
Speaker 2: on Fox Sports Radio. But we're talking about the AFC

388
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:36,880
Speaker 2: South today and trying to find some sex, appeal to

389
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:40,640
Speaker 2: it and excitement. Well, it's a little difficult. Texans are

390
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 2: the favorite to win the division. Latest odds. I'm looking

391
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 2: at Vegas Insider plus one ten, Jaguars at plus two sixty,

392
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:51,159
Speaker 2: the wishing, wanting, hoping that Liam Cohen and Trevor Lawrence

393
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 2: will find some magic, the Colts at plus three fifty,

394
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:59,119
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones, we'll get to him in a second, and

395
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 2: then the Tennessee time and bringing up the rear plus

396
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,159
Speaker 2: eight hundred. Welcome to the NFL, cam Ward. Those are

397
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 2: your divisional odds. But you start looking at it for

398
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,200
Speaker 2: fantasy purposes and trying to find some value. And there's

399
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,919
Speaker 2: players that we like, don't get me wrong. It just

400
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:15,919
Speaker 2: becomes for fantasy value. Where do we find them? The

401
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 2: quarterback position wherever. You know, whenever we start these process,

402
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 2: like you and I have been doing this a long time,

403
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,439
Speaker 2: so we might look more to the run game. We

404
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 2: still love our three yards.

405
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 4: In a class absolutely, but in the new look NFL

406
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:35,200
Speaker 4: of PPR leagues and four thousand, forty five hundred yard passers.

407
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 2: All over the place, we look to the quarterbacks. You

408
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,640
Speaker 2: realize nobody from this division is ranked higher than eighteenth

409
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:43,640
Speaker 2: at the position. CJ. Stroud comes in at number eighteen,

410
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:46,159
Speaker 2: just ahead of Trevor Lawrence, with a little bit of

411
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 2: a gap when you start talking about Ward Richardson and

412
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones, and when you look.

413
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:55,120
Speaker 4: At what the Texans have this year, it's a lot.

414
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 4: It's a much different feel than it was a year

415
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,640
Speaker 4: ago because CJ. Stroud was coming off of that great

416
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 4: rookie season Mike and you had Nico Collins there, you

417
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 4: had Tank Dell there, and you had the addition of

418
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 4: Stefan Diggs. This was a year ago and you're saying, Wow,

419
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 4: sure Joe Mixon was brought in. I wasn't completely sold

420
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 4: on that. Mixon was magnificent for them last year. Diggs

421
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 4: got hurt, Tank Dell got hurt. Again and then all

422
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 4: of a sudden, c J. Stroud's not the same c J. Stroud.

423
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,479
Speaker 4: He's dealing with his own thing, and so talk about

424
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 4: you know, the and this is a team, by the way,

425
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:33,119
Speaker 4: it did make the playoffs and won a playoff game,

426
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:37,159
Speaker 4: But there were such high expectations coming into last season

427
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 4: and the Texans some people had Super Bowl, Super Bowl

428
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:45,120
Speaker 4: contender for what they were, and I think last year

429
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 4: was a little bit.

430
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:46,240
Speaker 3: Of a letdown.

431
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,880
Speaker 4: I'm wondering if that's going to help a ranking like that, is,

432
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 4: if that would help the Houston Texans because you add

433
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,840
Speaker 4: Nick Chubb this offseason, you still have Joe Mixon there,

434
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 4: but the wide receiver position, Nico Con clearly the number

435
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 4: one there, and then he had drafted a lot of

436
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 4: younger guys that can find their spots. I think that

437
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,199
Speaker 4: could help the Houston Texans and help a guy like

438
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:13,439
Speaker 4: c J. Stroud and that offense to be ranked in

439
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,160
Speaker 4: the bottom half when it comes to fantasy.

440
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:16,920
Speaker 2: You know, it's fun trying to figure out cause and

441
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 2: effect because we do this all the time. Look at

442
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 2: a quarterback, he's taken however many sacks, right me being

443
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 2: a Bears guy, Caleb Williams, and then we start going

444
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 2: and trying to evaluate, well, that one's seventy percent on him,

445
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 2: that's thirty percent on line, that flip whatever. And for CJ. Stroud,

446
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:33,879
Speaker 2: it was a lot of that, right, how much of

447
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 2: the lack of depth beyond Nico Collins went available? Did

448
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 2: you have to really give him an afford him a

449
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,399
Speaker 2: chance where he had receivers that would break containment so

450
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 2: he could get the ball out versus holding it too long.

451
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:51,119
Speaker 2: So trying to figure out I didn't love their offensive line,

452
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,400
Speaker 2: but they graded out terribly and now for this year

453
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,119
Speaker 2: it's much the same. Like I looked at Warren Sharp

454
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,440
Speaker 2: has his early rankings out and he's got huge at

455
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:04,719
Speaker 2: thirty second going into the year. So but you've got guys,

456
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:06,879
Speaker 2: as you said with Mixon and Chubb, Yeah, that are

457
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,880
Speaker 2: going to make a bad offensive line look adequate and

458
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:13,959
Speaker 2: maybe are just enough with healthy wide receivers even if

459
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 2: they're just warm bodies plus uh to make CJ. Stroud

460
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,159
Speaker 2: that much more of a weapon. This year after the

461
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 2: sophomore sloan.

462
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, they were a much better offensive line and Stroud's

463
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,959
Speaker 4: rookie season now no more Laramie Tunzel that is going

464
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 4: to be the key point honestly too if you look

465
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 4: at if you look at the division as well, when

466
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 4: you just look at the offensive lines, Houston's got questioned

467
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 4: so much so to Mike's point, some people are rating

468
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 4: at the worst offensive line in the NFL, and sometimes

469
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 4: that's tough to do for how bad certain.

470
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:46,359
Speaker 3: Offensive lines are.

471
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:50,280
Speaker 4: The Colts obviously have Quinton Nelson, but they lost key

472
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,880
Speaker 4: pieces this offseason to Minnesota, so you're replacing some interior

473
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 4: guys or tackles are fine. When you look at Tennessee,

474
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 4: they've invested in offensive line prior to drafting cam Ward.

475
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,679
Speaker 4: Their previous two first round picks were linemen. They were

476
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,359
Speaker 4: also active in free agency, So I'm not saying that

477
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,399
Speaker 4: that Tennessee is the end all be all Jacksonville's questions

478
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 4: as well, But this is a weird division when it

479
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 4: comes to offensive lines, Mike, because nobody necessarily stands out.

480
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 4: The Colts probably would be the one that you would

481
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 4: you would take, just because almost by process of elimination

482
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,359
Speaker 4: with the the problems with the others, I think Tennessee's

483
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 4: is going to be all right.

484
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:29,640
Speaker 3: But I do think that.

485
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:31,760
Speaker 4: There are question marks with Jacksonville and Houston the teams

486
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:33,200
Speaker 4: that we think should be better.

487
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,159
Speaker 2: And then we get to the curiosity, and when we

488
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,919
Speaker 2: get to the skill position players, we do have several

489
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:42,199
Speaker 2: that rank highly enough. Jonathan Taylor still comes in at

490
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 2: the back end of the RB ones, but then it's

491
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:46,639
Speaker 2: a precipitous dip from there when you look at the

492
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,480
Speaker 2: rest of the division. Right etn is the guy that

493
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:55,240
Speaker 2: never was that tank Bigsby battling him there. We look

494
00:24:55,240 --> 00:25:00,639
Speaker 2: at Tennessee Pollard, but he's a part timer with speed. Yeah,

495
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 2: So which which do you like there? I mean, now

496
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 2: we're talking about RB three's and rolling the dice on

497
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:10,119
Speaker 2: which one is going to be? Give you above a

498
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 2: win out of that position? Uh and and just keep

499
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 2: going on down the line that and and for Houston,

500
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,440
Speaker 2: if Nick Chubb's Nick Chubb of two years ago, now,

501
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 2: now you've got to pick your poison and then they

502
00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 2: can both eat. But on a week to week basis,

503
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 2: has it become a hot hand scenario? And if CJ.

504
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 2: Strouds slinging it again, how much does that pull back

505
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:33,640
Speaker 2: from what you had in the run game a year

506
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,320
Speaker 2: ago with Joe Mixon. So a little bit of lever

507
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:37,199
Speaker 2: pulling as we go.

508
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, I find it when you look at the running

509
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 4: back position, there's Jonathan Taylor in Indianapolis and there's no

510
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 4: one else.

511
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:45,959
Speaker 3: Like brun of whata Khalil Herbert was that.

512
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 2: I think, yeah, well they've been having a hole. They

513
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,360
Speaker 2: drafted out of Northwestern last year. He was straight to.

514
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:55,360
Speaker 4: Ir so, so there's I mean, there's not a lot

515
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,920
Speaker 4: there to back up Jonathan Taylor. Your point about the Texans,

516
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 4: are you just trying to get seventeen games out of

517
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 4: a combination of Mixing and Chubb right where maybe it's

518
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 4: Mixing twelve and Chubb five or however, I don't necessarily

519
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 4: know what they're looking for in that aspect. Jacksonville, your

520
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,320
Speaker 4: point about ETN is spot on because there's also a

521
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 4: different feel. Even though Doug Peterson took over for Urban Meyer,

522
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 4: I still felt this Trevor Lawrence Travis ETN package sort

523
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:32,000
Speaker 4: of deal that they had felt like they were together

524
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:36,679
Speaker 4: and now they just end you end up parting in

525
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 4: getting further further apart the more your careers are down

526
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 4: the line, Tink Bigsby was just a better play. Now

527
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:46,159
Speaker 4: Liam Cohen's there with no affiliation towards Travis Etn and

528
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 4: you wonder, all right, if if the main objective is

529
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 4: to fix Trevor Lawrence, then you don't care necessarily on

530
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 4: what happens with Travis Etn and if he works out,

531
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,080
Speaker 4: and if Big b is just a better player, just

532
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 4: play Bigsby. But yeah, and then in Tennessee again, I

533
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:09,119
Speaker 4: don't want to say flip a coin, because you know

534
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,479
Speaker 4: Pollard did have Pollard was better than he was in

535
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,920
Speaker 4: his final season in Dallas. But you have a couple

536
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:16,640
Speaker 4: of guys there where you think you know the pecking order.

537
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,160
Speaker 4: But again there's just questions about the offensive line even

538
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 4: though they've invested in it. Now you have a rookie quarterback.

539
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:24,399
Speaker 2: Can we talk about room for what you're building towards

540
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 2: the future and what you want to see and how

541
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 2: early you start implementing that because you know the active

542
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 2: tanking to it becomes part of the process. Because Tennessee,

543
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,200
Speaker 2: by all accounts, we're still talking about a team that's

544
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,760
Speaker 2: battling for one of the top picks again next year.

545
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,200
Speaker 4: Now, Mike Florida even just put on an article today

546
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 4: of I think it was piggybacking off of a previous

547
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 4: article on how Brian Callahan is on the hot seat.

548
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:50,199
Speaker 4: You should be on the hot seat when you only

549
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 4: win three games, even if it's your first season, you

550
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 4: probably shouldn't have the leeway of you're going to need

551
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 4: two or three years, but especially when you make a

552
00:27:56,440 --> 00:28:01,120
Speaker 4: change in the front office. We're now Brian Callahan doesn't

553
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,639
Speaker 4: have the people that brought him in, and they're looking

554
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 4: they may have somebody else in mind. It maybe do

555
00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 4: or die early in Tennessee and I thought it would

556
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:11,040
Speaker 4: work out. I thought, hey, let Brian Callahan go in.

557
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 4: Maybe this dips, it goes worse before it gets better.

558
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:18,440
Speaker 4: But it's tough to get any worse than they were

559
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:20,199
Speaker 4: last year. It's just I don't know if he's going

560
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 4: to be around. Considering the new faces in that organism.

561
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 2: You get an opportunity to rebuild it all right. We

562
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,199
Speaker 2: look at the wide receiver position. We do actually have

563
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 2: two top ten guys. We mentioned Nico Collins before and

564
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,160
Speaker 2: then Brian Thomas, who had a fantastic year. For all

565
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 2: of the problems and inconsistencies we've seen with Trevor Lawrence,

566
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 2: we saw him. The curiosity though, is in Jacksonville, not

567
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 2: with Thomas. If he's healthy, he's a top ten play.

568
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 2: It's the how high do you value Travis Hunter.

569
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 3: I don't.

570
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 4: I don't value him fantasy wise. And this is where

571
00:28:56,040 --> 00:29:01,160
Speaker 4: I'm I'm so Brian Thomas. Last year, there was a

572
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 4: point we were doing a we were doing our podcast

573
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 4: and you mentioned, you're like, right now Brian Thomas is

574
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 4: second in the AFC and yards, and I'm like, there's

575
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 4: no way that can be true. And then he ends

576
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:13,479
Speaker 4: up he was at the time, and he ended up

577
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 4: finishing second in the AFC and Yards, and I'm like,

578
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 4: how did this happen? And so even last night, I'm

579
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,720
Speaker 4: looking over numbers and I looked at their I looked

580
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,400
Speaker 4: at their schedule Mike that they had over where he

581
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 4: really made his hay over the last part of the season.

582
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 4: I mean there's you know, there's Titans sprinkled and there's

583
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 4: a bad division, you know. So I mean there really

584
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 4: wasn't much resistance. But you play who's on your schedule, right,

585
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 4: that's it. And and so he made hey and he

586
00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 4: got a lot of targets. And now the Christian Kirk

587
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 4: battled injuries. But Christian Kirk's not there anymore. Travis Hunter,

588
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:49,800
Speaker 4: I think part time player right now, at least early on,

589
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,640
Speaker 4: Evan Ingram's no longer there, like there's it is. It

590
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 4: is all for Brian Thomas. I am not as high

591
00:29:56,320 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 4: on Travis Hunter right now as a play, but my goodness,

592
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 4: it's like who else?

593
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:02,720
Speaker 3: Think what else are they gonna do?

594
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 2: They brought in Diami Brown from Washington. Commander's yeah, and

595
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:11,720
Speaker 2: then we talk about the depth and running back tight

596
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 2: end is Brenton Strange a decided down downgrade from a

597
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,000
Speaker 2: guy who caught what eighty five balls or ninety balls

598
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 2: or whatever the hell have An Ingram caught a year ago?

599
00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 3: And so if you.

600
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:27,480
Speaker 4: It's it's if you're looking at the Jaguars and you're

601
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 4: looking at how they're gonna change, it's all on Trevor Lawrence.

602
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 4: It's all on on his progression and what he does

603
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 4: with the new coaching staff. So Trevor Lawrence at least

604
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 4: knows Brian Thomas. You may not know everybody else. And

605
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 4: I just I think that is a great, great sign.

606
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 4: I wanted to come in and poop poop Brian Thomas.

607
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,640
Speaker 4: I made every effort. I even talked about his bad schedule,

608
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,040
Speaker 4: but I couldn't even shy away from that. Because even

609
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,720
Speaker 4: if they're playing better teams. Guess what, Mike, they're gonna

610
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:56,200
Speaker 4: be down. What are they're gonna do?

611
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 3: Yes? Yes, So everything keeps coming back. You want Ryan Thomas, you.

612
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:02,120
Speaker 2: Want to take guess at the ADP on Fantasy Pros

613
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:03,360
Speaker 2: right now? For Travis Hunter?

614
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 4: Oh geez, I'm gonna say eighty thirty. Wow, wide receivers

615
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 4: right now? He is thirtieth.

616
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 3: Way off.

617
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 2: Look, I would have thought low forties, you know, to

618
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 2: where he's a w R four, which means the final

619
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 2: six weeks of the season, they're just bombing it away

620
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 2: and whatever. So we get to the best ball scenario

621
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,840
Speaker 2: to where he would end up ranking there because again

622
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 2: it's you know, value versus what a ranking is. You know,

623
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:37,000
Speaker 2: we we always talk about this on the podcast. It's

624
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 2: a very different world, right sure, in terms of the

625
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 2: EBB and flow of a season. But yeah, he's thirty,

626
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 2: So you were.

627
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:46,239
Speaker 4: Super flex or just with all Because I looked at

628
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 4: it in a way, what what was the position for

629
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 4: its thirtieth for PPR leagues? Okay, for wide receivers, For

630
00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 4: wide receivers, I.

631
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:55,560
Speaker 3: Thought you were doing No, no, no, no.

632
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 2: Sorry sorry, yeah, so yeah, no, not flex position. He'd

633
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:03,640
Speaker 2: certainly fall much further, but still that still seems a

634
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 2: much higher because it really does put a lot that

635
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:09,520
Speaker 2: people all these years later still think Trevor Lawrence is

636
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 2: gonna come out like Gangbusters. Sure, and Liam Cohen is

637
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 2: the guy that cracked the code to unleash the guy

638
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:17,720
Speaker 2: that we saw had climbs at all those years.

639
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 4: I mean, look and looking at the names. Yeah, Jerry

640
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 4: Judy's below him, Jordan Addison's below them. I know those

641
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 4: questions of Minnesota do on this. We don't know who's

642
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 4: going to be the quarterback in Cleveland, but they at

643
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 4: least put more on Tip Khalil Shakir, Like if Travis

644
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:35,040
Speaker 4: Hunter had Khalil Shakir's season, that's a that's a success. Absolutely,

645
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,120
Speaker 4: and right now Shakers below him in those rankings.

646
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:40,240
Speaker 2: So well, there you go, uh post draft hype, maybe

700
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:33,759
Speaker 4: no pressure now, but but there is a butt. I

701
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 4: also think that we could strike out, considering some of

702
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,640
Speaker 4: the names that aren't on this list. Only looking for

703
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 4: top six answers, top six answers on the board. We

704
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 4: are a day away, now, less than a day away

705
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 4: from plaguetting underway at Wimbledon. Yes, what I want to

706
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:57,160
Speaker 4: know the six men with three or more Wimbledon singles

707
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:01,359
Speaker 4: titles in the Open era. That's from nineteen sixty eight

708
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,640
Speaker 4: until right now. There are six players who have three

709
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:09,360
Speaker 4: or more men's singles titles at the All England Club.

710
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,480
Speaker 4: Name them three strikes in a pass, Mike Carmen, we

711
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:13,360
Speaker 4: start with you.

712
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:16,319
Speaker 2: Let's see where can I possibly fail? There are so

713
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 2: many landmines for me, as this is not my sport.

714
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 2: I should buy more tennis cards. Maybe that would make

715
00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:22,439
Speaker 2: me better.

716
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,560
Speaker 4: But you know tennis names, well, you know, So let's

717
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:27,160
Speaker 4: just start with one of the heavyways.

718
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 2: Let's go Jokovic right off.

719
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:32,920

00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:38,760
Speaker 3: Over to Chris Purfet.

723
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,959
Speaker 6: Sorry, remind me again, what's the threshold. It's how many titles.

724
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:44,360
Speaker 3: Three or more?

725
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 6: Okay, I don't feel as comfortable with my I'm.

726
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:49,080
Speaker 2: Gonna go with Roger Feederer.

727
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:52,759
Speaker 4: Roger Federer, show me Roger Federer. Yeah, he's got eight,

728
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:56,680
Speaker 4: he's our number one answer. Roger Federer is off the board.

729
00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:00,720
Speaker 4: So far, so good, two for two in the feud.

730
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 4: Over to producer Shay, I'm.

731
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:04,239
Speaker 6: Gonna go the only other male name I know.

732
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:10,480
Speaker 4: Nadell Raffael Nadal Nidal, Yeah, Natal, I thought I knew.

733
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 4: Is it Rafael Nadal? No, he's got two, but he

734
00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:20,360
Speaker 4: doesn't have three. Over to Isaac Loehenkron. This is going

735
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:21,879
Speaker 4: back to nineteen sixty eight.

736
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:29,720
Speaker 8: Hard part begins Body Becker show me Boris Becker as

737
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 8: the German three time champion, one of two players with

738
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:38,319
Speaker 8: three titles on this list going back to nineteen sixty eight.

739
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 3: Mike Carmen, over.

740
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:43,280
Speaker 2: To you, so sixty eight. It has to have some

741
00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 2: key component to it all, which I don't know. But

742
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go back to the age that I grew

743
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 2: up in. How about Connors, Jimmy Connors. That's a good guess,

744
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:58,719
Speaker 2: is it? Jimmy Connors? Again like Nidala two times honor

745
00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,719
Speaker 2: but not a three time I'm winner. Steve Hartman is

746
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 2: so mad over on the other side of the glass.

747
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,880
Speaker 2: He is screaming Chris pet.

748
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 9: Anyway, So here's let me think about this, because Alcaraz

749
00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:14,840
Speaker 9: is right on that cuff, and I know he doesn't

750
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:19,640
Speaker 9: have three Oh right, what about Pete Sampress?

751
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 4: Show me Pete Samprass. Seven titles for Pete Sampress. I

752
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 4: don't know if that's Steve Hartman was yelling at Isaac

753
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 4: Lolahan cron about over the producer, Shay, we have a

754
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:30,759
Speaker 4: pass available, Shay.

00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:36,320
Speaker 3: I'm gonna I think I know another. We have already gotten.

756
00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:41,399
Speaker 4: Sampriss, Djokovic and Boris Becker, Okay, so looking for two

757
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,000
Speaker 4: names passes available.

758
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:46,120
Speaker 3: I'm gonna steal that pass. Okay, let's do the pass

759
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 3: to me.

760
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:51,520
Speaker 4: I'm trying to figure out which answer to reveal to

761
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 4: leave it up to Isaac glahing Kron.

762
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:54,719
Speaker 3: We're gonna go beyond board.

763
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:56,080
Speaker 2: That's what I was gonna do.

764
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 3: Five Wimbledon titles for Bejorn Board.

765
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:01,239

00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 1: You cannot be serious.

768
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:09,160
Speaker 6: But I hope you are.

769
00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:10,719
Speaker 8: John McEnroe.

770
00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:13,920
Speaker 4: We know that John McEnroe has had success at the

771
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,880
Speaker 4: All England Club. I think he's one of the greatest

772
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:18,600
Speaker 4: commentators of any.

773
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:19,480

00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:22,840
Speaker 2: first hour of things, We've watched action on the pitch,

814
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:26,359

815
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,480

816
00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:29,759
Speaker 1: Dan.

817
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:33,799
Speaker 2: We've got golf tournament as well that we're watching and

818
00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:39,720
Speaker 2: paying attention. Some low scores and interesting putting motions. Little

819
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 2: out of the tradition.

820
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,200
Speaker 4: You know, they've they've banned anchoring, but there are some

821
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:45,560
Speaker 4: who still like to use the long putter, like ak

822
00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:46,240
Speaker 4: Sha Batiya.

823
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:48,840
Speaker 2: It looked like he was going full happy Gilmour that

824
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:50,120
Speaker 2: I don't keeps gett ready for a slash.

825
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:53,880
Speaker 4: This looks different because he's a lefty, so Adam Scott

826
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:58,160
Speaker 4: a little bit more normal conventional, if you will, no

827
00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:01,480
Speaker 4: offense lefties, but it does look a little different when

828
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:03,840
Speaker 4: you're using long putter and you're using it from the

829
00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:05,399
Speaker 4: other side of the golf ball.

830
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,959
Speaker 2: That and I mean a lot of the golfers look

831
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 2: more like I don't want to say regular people. He

832
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:17,200
Speaker 2: is a lanky guy, right, He's a thin, very.

833
00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,240
Speaker 3: Thin, very long and wiry.

834
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:21,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's so it's a different look than a lot

835
00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:22,239
Speaker 2: of other guys are.

836
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:27,040
Speaker 4: And when you see Akhabatia swing off the tea, you

837
00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:30,080
Speaker 4: know it's ak Shabatia like the flexibility. Just looking at

838
00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:32,359
Speaker 4: it hurts me to be honest with you, And I'm

839
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:36,279
Speaker 4: not a real flexible guy. Surprise, surprise, but man, it's

840
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:40,280
Speaker 4: it's it's it's almost to like the America's got talent

841
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 4: guy who like has you know, trible joints.

842
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:46,920
Speaker 3: But yes, like yes, ac Shabatia's body.

843
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:50,440
Speaker 4: Can move in ways that I can only dream of

844
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:52,680
Speaker 4: when we're talking about golf.

845
00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:56,480
Speaker 2: We'll get you well, I mean, whatever you do with dreaming,

846
00:42:56,560 --> 00:43:00,400
Speaker 2: and I don't the hot yoga studios right over there.

847
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:03,680
Speaker 2: We'll get you on on the road road do flexibility.

00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 2: I was once told by a wrestling coach I had

849
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:11,279
Speaker 2: the flexibility of a rock. So I'm right there with you.

850
00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:14,680

861
00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 2: Week earlier we talked About Lebron james opting into his

862
00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 2: fifty two point six million dollars deal with The. Lakers

863
00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:55,000
Speaker 2: he gets a lot of conversation, angling all, right it's,

864
00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:58,880
Speaker 2: signed and now you force your way out via? Trade is?

00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:02,359
Speaker 2: IT i want one Last jarrah Alongside, luca and THEN

866
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:05,680
Speaker 2: i say goodbye AND i go off to ANOTHER nba.

867
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 2: World we don't have the one in, one but the

868
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:11,879
Speaker 2: pressers from him and the statements From Rich paul make

869
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:16,200
Speaker 2: it seem like we're saying goodbye and getting ahead of

870
00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:20,239
Speaker 2: this in a very business like. Way. Right there's not

871
00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:22,120
Speaker 2: a lot of warmth in any of the words.

872
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 4: Here there was not a lot of celebratory feelings in

873
00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:29,719
Speaker 4: reading the statement released By Rich. Paul and that's WHERE

874
00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:32,480
Speaker 4: i think you really have to read between the lines

875
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:35,680
Speaker 4: that this was a DECISION i, Believe, mike that was

876
00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:39,080
Speaker 4: made basically by The. LAKERS i think That, lebron while

877
00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:42,080
Speaker 4: he was maybe open to a lot of, things very

878
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:44,040
Speaker 4: well felt, that you, know AND i could just play

879
00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:48,120
Speaker 4: out my career here and just sign extensions and continue

880
00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:49,680
Speaker 4: to play in WHAT i want to call it, Quits

881
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:53,240
Speaker 4: i'll retire as A. Laker AND i think everything changed

882
00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:56,600
Speaker 4: with The luca trade that The lakers timetable now. Changes

883
00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:59,000
Speaker 4: they don't have to put it on cruise control Because

884
00:44:59,080 --> 00:44:59,560
Speaker 4: lebron is.

885
00:44:59,560 --> 00:44:59,759
Speaker 3: There.

886
00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:02,360
Speaker 4: Not you got to shape the team Around Luka doncic

887
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:05,920
Speaker 4: and formulate how you want to move forward for the

888
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:08,799
Speaker 4: next decade or, so And Lebron james is not a

889
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,839
Speaker 4: part of that. Plan and the statements today released By

890
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:17,839
Speaker 4: Rich paul TO espn About lebron opting in sure didn't

891
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:21,080
Speaker 4: sound like he was super excited for the twenty twenty

892
00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:25,239
Speaker 4: five twenty six. Season sure just sounded like they understood

893
00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:27,400
Speaker 4: where The lakers were coming. From AND i think The

894
00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:30,280
Speaker 4: lakers are coming from a position that we're about ready

895
00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:31,680
Speaker 4: for The Lebron james era to be.

896
00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:34,400
Speaker 2: Over we'll see how it plays, out but he wants

897
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:39,319
Speaker 2: to win. Titles understand the frustration of winning, now but

898
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:43,640
Speaker 2: planning for the. FUTURE a lot of as our Colleague

899
00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:47,120
Speaker 2: Ben mallor would, say weasel words in terms of what

900
00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:51,000
Speaker 2: you're really trying to say a subject to. Interpretation but

901
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:53,960
Speaker 2: the thing to pull away from, it you, know we

902
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:57,480
Speaker 2: got plenty of OTHER nba to get, to is the

903
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:01,160
Speaker 2: fact that The lakers don't have a lot of flexibility

904
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:02,880
Speaker 2: nor do they have a lot of desertible assets to

905
00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:05,879
Speaker 2: go trade. Right as much as we can point, out it's,

906
00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:07,279
Speaker 2: like well this guy they don't want. Him it was,

907
00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:07,919

915
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:27,520
Speaker 2: a lot of money to, spend and you don't have

927
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:05,640
Speaker 4: you're doing it Because lebron is there and you're trying

928

Speaker 4: to cash in on this. Window the. Window AND i

929
00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:11,800
Speaker 4: mentioned this earlier in the, show That lebron and The

930
00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:15,000
Speaker 4: lakers had this, marriage but it wasn't this love affair

931
00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:17,640
Speaker 4: between the. Team they both worked with each, other they

932
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:20,759
Speaker 4: both worked in. Concert he did this for, Them they

933
00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:24,279
Speaker 4: did this for. Him Lebronny james think the thing is

934
00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:27,080
Speaker 4: a part of, it but it doesn't seem like these

935
00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:30,480
Speaker 4: sides were passionately in. Love but they made it. Work

936
00:47:30,520 --> 00:47:33,799
Speaker 4: they figured it out a way to move forward with

937
00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:37,879
Speaker 4: both sides. Benefiting but you didn't Have Luka doncic last.

938
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:40,719
Speaker 4: Year so The lakers And lebron were kind of on

939
00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:43,480
Speaker 4: the same path mic Because lebron wanted his, stuff The

940
00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:46,200
Speaker 4: lakers wanted his, stuff so they. Worked, Well now somebody

941
00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:47,920
Speaker 4: knew is in the, picture and The lakers turned their

942
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:51,480
Speaker 4: attention to. That So lebron isn't as important to The lakers',

943
00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:54,239
Speaker 4: future whether it be short term or long. Term SO

944
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:57,400
Speaker 4: i think what The lakers are even saying is maybe

945
00:47:57,440 --> 00:47:59,319
Speaker 4: now there may not be the, flexibility and we don't

946
00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:01,960
Speaker 4: know the future of All austin, reeves but there are

947
00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:04,640
Speaker 4: draft picks that they do, have and you are, now

948
00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:06,640
Speaker 4: instead of trying to figure out a way how do

949
00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:09,040
Speaker 4: we build a team Around lebron to win a championship

950
00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:11,719
Speaker 4: this year or, next you're now, saying how do we

951
00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:14,120
Speaker 4: build this team to make sure that we are championship

952
00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:18,240
Speaker 4: competitors With luca for the next five years and step

953
00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:20,680
Speaker 4: one in that maybe to make sure That Lebron james

954
00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:22,040
Speaker 4: doesn't come back after twenty twenty.

955
00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:25,520
Speaker 2: Six we just recognizing that it's time to say it

00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:56,200
Speaker 4: John elway was trying to make his, way But i've

1064
00:53:56,239 --> 00:53:59,160
Speaker 4: seen enough documentaries AND i was alive at the time

1065
00:53:59,320 --> 00:54:01,040

1069
00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:14,520
Speaker 4: Drafting um ultimately traded to The Denver. Broncos the part

1070
00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:19,920
Speaker 4: THAT i think people don't like is the AND i

1071
00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:23,800
Speaker 4: could be wrong about, this but it's Like elway was

1072
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:25,800
Speaker 4: was number, one AND i don't think there's much difference

1073
00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:29,160
Speaker 4: to what heated then to What Ace bailey or to

1074
00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:30,320

Speaker 4: What the draft, is and it's the higher pick you're

1079

Speaker 4: supposed to get the better of the. Player, well what's

1080
00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:42,040
Speaker 4: the point of the? Draft WHICH i think is ultimately your, Point.

1081
00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:44,799
Speaker 4: Mike if players don't want to go, there so there's

1082
00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:49,799
Speaker 4: no advantage To brooklyn picking. Eighth If malawak doesn't want

1083
00:54:49,840 --> 00:54:51,800
Speaker 4: to go, there and if he's the best player there

1084
00:54:52,040 --> 00:54:55,720
Speaker 4: right like there's so then you're, saying what's the point

1085
00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:58,319
Speaker 4: of this? Anyway AND i think that's the thing is

1086
00:54:58,440 --> 00:55:00,319
Speaker 4: when we look at the, draft we, think but there's

1087
00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:03,719
Speaker 4: an advantage of eight over ten or six over ten

1088
00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:06,600
Speaker 4: or five over, nine that the earlier the, pick the

1089
00:55:06,640 --> 00:55:09,000
Speaker 4: better off you should. Be and if agents are doing,

1090
00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:12,880
Speaker 4: this that also throws the essence of the intrigue and

1091
00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:15,120
Speaker 4: the value of the draft in the, Questions.

1092
00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:17,720
Speaker 2: Well it's you, know the age old. Thing you're ruining

1093
00:55:17,760 --> 00:55:20,280
Speaker 2: the sanctity of college. Football it's, like then you haven't

1094
00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:23,840
Speaker 2: been looking behind the curtain for forty, years fifty, years,

1095
00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:26,560
Speaker 2: right all of this stuff's been going. On now it's

1096
00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:29,000
Speaker 2: just a little more. Transparent in this, Case Rich paul's

1097
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:31,319
Speaker 2: saying the quiet part out loud for everybody to. Hear,

1098
00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:33,360
Speaker 2: Hey i'll get you where you need to. Go and

1099
00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:35,440
Speaker 2: when players do, it everybody gets. Mad now we can

1100
00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:38,200
Speaker 2: talk about the draft in a larger sense of its

1101
00:55:38,320 --> 00:55:42,240
Speaker 2: viability legally and everything, else as we have for, years

1102
00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:46,240
Speaker 2: and that'll. Continue but for a, player they get killed

1103
00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:49,680
Speaker 2: for trying to go to where they. Want and to your,

1104
00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:53,160
Speaker 2: point dude wants to go To. Washington, hey can you

1105
00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:55,880
Speaker 2: guys just give. Him we don't need any real. Compensation,

1106
00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:59,000
Speaker 2: sure let go To. Washington yeah he wants to go.

1107
00:55:59,080 --> 00:56:02,200
Speaker 2: There but it's it's just the idea that you, know

1108
00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:04,560
Speaker 2: we talk out of both sides, about oh this is.

1109
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:06,960
Speaker 2: Great you, know the agent has to look out for his,

1110
00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:10,759
Speaker 2: player but player raising his hand going, yeah it's not my.

1111
00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:13,360
Speaker 2: Thing like the who was the kid that got drafted

1112
00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:16,080
Speaker 2: by what was It toronto and they caught him on?

1113
00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:19,840
Speaker 4: Camera oh, yeah, yes, yeah it's an honest.

1114
00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:22,880
Speaker 2: Moment, Yeah now he'll get into a, room and that

1115
00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:28,000
Speaker 2: was What Dwayne wade and, company you, Know and and

1116
00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:31,160
Speaker 2: when you look At Danny ainge and and everybody, else they're.

1117
00:56:31,239 --> 00:56:34,520
Speaker 2: Convinced once we Get Ace bailey into the, room we'll

1118
00:56:34,600 --> 00:56:36,719
Speaker 2: show them what the blueprint is of what we're trying to.

1119
00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:40,440
Speaker 2: Do but in that, moment, yeah it's a visceral.

1120
00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:45,920
Speaker 4: Experience Colin Murray boyle's the draft pick that had his

1121
00:56:46,160 --> 00:56:46,919
Speaker 4: lips being.

1122
00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:51,440
Speaker 3: Read here's the other fact of the, Matter, MIKE.

1123
00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:55,120
Speaker 4: I Think utah looking At Ace bailey because of where

1124
00:56:55,160 --> 00:56:57,440
Speaker 4: he was and the talent he, was you're feeling like

1125
00:56:57,640 --> 00:57:02,359
Speaker 4: you're getting value there at. Five but in true, reality it's,

1126
00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:04,440
Speaker 4: okay If i'm going to roll the dice on this

1127
00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:07,120
Speaker 4: nineteen year, Old i'll just end up rolling the dice

1128
00:57:07,160 --> 00:57:09,719
Speaker 4: on a different nineteen year, old, right whether if he

1129
00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:11,640
Speaker 4: wants to be here or. Not if that's the, difference

1130
00:57:11,680 --> 00:57:15,160
Speaker 4: then if you've got. Guys this is not to diminish

1131
00:57:15,200 --> 00:57:18,920
Speaker 4: what scouts do in THE nba or, not but THE

1132
00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:22,760
Speaker 4: nba draft is formed into something completely different than it

1133
00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:27,040
Speaker 4: was thirty years, ago and so you're now just banking

1134
00:57:27,080 --> 00:57:31,440
Speaker 4: on the prospects of what these kids could be instead

1135
00:57:31,440 --> 00:57:34,360
Speaker 4: of what they. Are so there's a risk no matter.

1136
00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:36,880
Speaker 4: What when you're just drafting a nineteen year old, kid

1137
00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:38,480
Speaker 4: you have no idea they're going to work. Out so

1138
00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:41,720
Speaker 4: if you're a team and you're saying like that's the,

1139
00:57:41,760 --> 00:57:45,000
Speaker 4: point if the evaluations are somewhat, close everybody's still taking

1140
00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:47,440
Speaker 4: a risk on a nineteen to twenty year old. Kid so,

1141
00:57:47,560 --> 00:57:51,360
Speaker 4: ultimately if a kid says he doesn't want to, Play

1142
00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:54,920
Speaker 4: Danny aings just Fell Ace bailey's talent was better than everybody,

1143
00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:58,880
Speaker 4: else and by and large it felt that way throughout

1144
00:57:58,920 --> 00:58:01,880
Speaker 4: the process that he was just a better prospect and

1145
00:58:02,040 --> 00:58:04,880
Speaker 4: ended up. Falling but when you get to, ten when

1146
00:58:04,880 --> 00:58:06,880
Speaker 4: you get to twelve and you get to those, spots

1147
00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:08,160
Speaker 4: you're rolling the dice on.

1148
00:58:08,120 --> 00:58:08,840
Speaker 3: A lot of these guys.

1149
00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:12,240
Speaker 4: Anyway so the fact of a nineteen and twenty year,

1150
00:58:12,280 --> 00:58:14,960
Speaker 4: old you're just, Saying i'll take my chance on this

1151
00:58:15,080 --> 00:58:15,960
Speaker 4: kid instead of on that.

1152
00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:18,840
Speaker 2: Kid and if evaluation, wise with As, bailey if he's

1153
00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:22,320
Speaker 2: that much better right in your evaluation over the next,

1154
00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:25,040
Speaker 2: guy don't you think that's probably the same on a

1155
00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:27,840
Speaker 2: bunch of other. Boards so if he doesn't want to

1156
00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:30,560
Speaker 2: be In. Utah is he now a tradable. Asset it

1157
00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:32,840
Speaker 2: might be a little bit of a distressed property to a,

1158
00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:34,680
Speaker 2: degree but if it's going to get him to where

1159
00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:37,000
Speaker 2: he wants to, go then you might be able to

1160
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:39,920
Speaker 2: pick up a couple of draft picks and a player and.

1161
00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:41,360
Speaker 2: WHATEVER i don't want to do with.

1162
00:58:41,400 --> 00:58:41,440
Speaker 5: That.

1163
00:58:41,680 --> 00:58:42,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah because.

1164
00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:46,280
Speaker 2: You're, utah you're not running up suddenly correct in The Western.

1165
00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:49,120
Speaker 4: Conference and if You're, utah you can also say just

1166
00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:51,440
Speaker 4: WHAT i, said he's a nineteen year old. Kid he

1167
00:58:51,480 --> 00:58:54,080
Speaker 4: doesn't know what he doesn't, know, right and so like

1168
00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:57,040
Speaker 4: we'll bring him, in we'll show him we have trust

1169
00:58:57,040 --> 00:59:00,840
Speaker 4: in our. Process that's, it and that's what it. Is

1170
00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:03,160
Speaker 4: it's why it's so much of a. Crapshoot it's more

1171
00:59:03,200 --> 00:59:06,640
Speaker 4: interesting to see teams maneuver around and see what they're

1172
00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:09,480
Speaker 4: trying to set up, than you, know than do. ANYTHING i,

1173
00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:11,600
Speaker 4: mean The hawks were considered the you, know the huge

1174
00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:14,400
Speaker 4: winner for the tray that they pulled off that didn't

1175
00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:15,440

1286
01:05:11,880 --> 01:05:14,480
Speaker 2: Mother he was, like last, NIGHT i sent a message

1287
01:05:14,520 --> 01:05:18,720
Speaker 2: to your. Mother, now the crux of it is that

1288
01:05:19,160 --> 01:05:22,720
Speaker 2: the twenty two year old spectator threw this out and

1289
01:05:22,880 --> 01:05:26,640
Speaker 2: That marte's mom had died in a car accident in twenty.

1290
01:05:26,720 --> 01:05:32,360
Speaker 2: SEVENTEEN i didn't know. THAT i don't know the man's,

1291
01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:35,360
Speaker 2: history and this becomes one of those you, know we've

1292
01:05:35,440 --> 01:05:40,360
Speaker 2: had famous hecklers in sports, forever, right whether it's fictional

1293
01:05:40,560 --> 01:05:44,560
Speaker 2: And Happy, gilmore whether it's the the you, Know Robert

1294
01:05:44,760 --> 01:05:48,880
Speaker 2: vickers reading from a book behind benches AT nba, games

1295
01:05:49,440 --> 01:05:54,120
Speaker 2: there have been guys twenty two year old when throwing

1296
01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:57,480
Speaker 2: that struck me as a you know your mom joke

1297
01:05:57,920 --> 01:06:02,080
Speaker 2: that went horribly, wrong, Right and maybe he did deep

1298
01:06:02,160 --> 01:06:05,640
Speaker 2: research on all the players and had something cooked up

1299
01:06:05,680 --> 01:06:09,200
Speaker 2: for each of them in their, past but this struck.

1300
01:06:09,280 --> 01:06:11,920
Speaker 2: Me and to this, POINT i haven't seen anything that

1301
01:06:12,240 --> 01:06:15,400
Speaker 2: he would have known that this had happened To marte's,

1302
01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:17,680
Speaker 2: mom other Than i'll get try to get in your. Head.

1303
01:06:17,840 --> 01:06:21,120
Speaker 4: Yeah on the, surface and when this came, out it

1304
01:06:21,240 --> 01:06:24,480
Speaker 4: felt like it was a fan that purposely said something

1305
01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:28,080
Speaker 4: To marte about his, mother who tragically passed in that

1306
01:06:28,240 --> 01:06:31,680
Speaker 4: car accident eight years. Ago that's what it seemed, like

1307
01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:34,240
Speaker 4: is it brought him to tears now that we know

1308
01:06:34,360 --> 01:06:36,160
Speaker 4: a little bit. More and to your, point it was

1309
01:06:36,320 --> 01:06:41,400
Speaker 4: a mama, joke if you, will in saying what he,

1310
01:06:41,680 --> 01:06:47,600
Speaker 4: SAID i haven't changed my point because there's some people

1311
01:06:47,600 --> 01:06:51,120
Speaker 4: who are critical Of martes for getting so, emotional because

1312
01:06:51,600 --> 01:06:53,520
Speaker 4: they're saying you got to be stronger as a. PLAYER

1313
01:06:54,040 --> 01:06:56,480
Speaker 4: i just think that that stuff is off. Limits and

1314
01:06:57,120 --> 01:06:59,160
Speaker 4: when you lose a, parent you lose it. Tragically and

1315
01:06:59,240 --> 01:07:01,560
Speaker 4: and then he explained in the, interview WAS i found

1316
01:07:01,600 --> 01:07:04,560
Speaker 4: out In, Chicago so WHENEVER i go To, chicago this

1317
01:07:04,840 --> 01:07:07,280
Speaker 4: is you, know it's not easy for me because those

1318
01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:11,040
Speaker 4: memories come. Up and anybody who's, lost anybody that's close to,

1319
01:07:11,120 --> 01:07:13,800
Speaker 4: them knows some days are better than, others and certain

1320
01:07:13,880 --> 01:07:16,680
Speaker 4: things are triggered by. Others so maybe just him being

1321
01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:20,760
Speaker 4: In chicago just puts him on edge no matter when it.

1322
01:07:20,840 --> 01:07:26,720
Speaker 4: Happens AND i Wondered mike because of how this the

1323
01:07:26,800 --> 01:07:30,680
Speaker 4: story has continued to go on because now he's doing that.

1324
01:07:30,840 --> 01:07:34,960
Speaker 4: Interview this happened In Tuesday night's. Game On, wednesday it

1325
01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:37,479
Speaker 4: was still being talked about The White sox were putting

1326
01:07:37,560 --> 01:07:41,920
Speaker 4: up messages we Support Cantel. Marte so now he's asked about.

1327
01:07:41,920 --> 01:07:44,200
Speaker 4: That when he comes Home, friday is getting a standing

1328
01:07:44,240 --> 01:07:49,640
Speaker 4: ovation from the home. Crowd Not he obviously will never

1329
01:07:49,760 --> 01:07:52,000
Speaker 4: forget and never wants to forget his mother's. Memory but

1330
01:07:52,120 --> 01:07:56,920
Speaker 4: this incident and his emotions are now continuingly to be

1331
01:07:57,040 --> 01:07:59,800
Speaker 4: dragged out over five days because of the actions of

1332
01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:03,360
Speaker 4: one twenty two year old who didn't know where the line.

1333
01:08:03,560 --> 01:08:06,080
Speaker 4: Was and that's the point THAT i always come back,

1334
01:08:06,120 --> 01:08:09,000
Speaker 4: to is it may seem, innocent but it's one of

1335
01:08:09,080 --> 01:08:12,160
Speaker 4: those you, know bleep around and find, out like sometimes

1336
01:08:12,240 --> 01:08:15,600
Speaker 4: you cross the. Line you roll us through a stop, sign,

1337
01:08:15,840 --> 01:08:20,000
Speaker 4: right no big. Deal you roll through a stop sign

1338
01:08:20,040 --> 01:08:23,400
Speaker 4: and hit somebody on a, bike much bigger, deal, right

1339
01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:26,960
Speaker 4: the same actions of rolling through a stop. Sign AND

1340
01:08:27,080 --> 01:08:29,920
Speaker 4: i feel it's the same thing with the. Guys, LISTEN

1341
01:08:29,960 --> 01:08:31,840
Speaker 4: i rolled through stop signs all the. Time, yeah but

1342
01:08:32,160 --> 01:08:36,120
Speaker 4: this is what. Happened could Tell, marte not that it necessarily.

1343
01:08:36,200 --> 01:08:39,800
Speaker 4: Matters went over four and struck out twice On. Wednesday On,

1344
01:08:39,960 --> 01:08:42,760
Speaker 4: friday went over, four struck out three times in.

1345
01:08:42,800 --> 01:08:43,439
Speaker 3: The game against The.

1346
01:08:43,520 --> 01:08:46,720
Speaker 4: Marlins guess how many other times could Tell marte has

1347
01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:48,000
Speaker 4: struck out three times in a game this.

1348
01:08:48,160 --> 01:08:51,280
Speaker 3: Year it never. Happened it hasn't happened.

1349
01:08:51,760 --> 01:08:52,280
Speaker 2: Yet this is.

1350
01:08:53,800 --> 01:08:57,640
Speaker 4: Obviously affecting. Him homer yesterday kind of got off but

1351
01:08:58,000 --> 01:09:00,680
Speaker 4: still went one for. Four it's a three hundred hitter

1352
01:09:00,720 --> 01:09:04,080
Speaker 4: who's one for twelve since this has, happened and so

1353
01:09:04,400 --> 01:09:07,000
Speaker 4: now we're talking about it affecting his on. Field it's

1354
01:09:07,040 --> 01:09:10,160
Speaker 4: still going on. Here that's the, Part, mike where, yeah

1355
01:09:10,160 --> 01:09:12,720
Speaker 4: it's a mama, joke AND i understand that you know

1356
01:09:13,320 --> 01:09:16,120
Speaker 4: your fans and you, heckle but when you cross the,

1357
01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:17,880
Speaker 4: line you cross the. LINE i don't know if the

1358
01:09:17,960 --> 01:09:20,200
Speaker 4: fans should be banned for life from. Anywhere maybe there's

1359
01:09:20,240 --> 01:09:24,280
Speaker 4: a way, financially maybe he does something to ingratiate himself

1360
01:09:24,320 --> 01:09:26,960
Speaker 4: back With Major League. Baseball but something has to be,

1361
01:09:27,080 --> 01:09:30,040
Speaker 4: done because this affected could Tell marte way more than

1362
01:09:30,080 --> 01:09:32,720
Speaker 4: to think any of us could. Believe and that's, why

1363
01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:35,960
Speaker 4: for as much as more information comes, out AND i

1364
01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:38,400
Speaker 4: want to give the heckler a little bit of benefit

1365
01:09:38,439 --> 01:09:40,680
Speaker 4: of the doubt that he just didn't know the, situation

1366
01:09:41,200 --> 01:09:42,320
Speaker 4: sometimes you got to pay for.

1367
01:09:42,360 --> 01:09:44,439
Speaker 3: Your, crimes AND i feel that this is a time

1368
01:09:44,439 --> 01:09:45,040
Speaker 3: where that has to have.

1369
01:09:45,080 --> 01:09:49,479
Speaker 2: Pretty substantive paying for a. Crime, again you, know stuff

1370
01:09:49,520 --> 01:09:52,800
Speaker 2: gets shouted And i'm, sorry LIKE i DON'T i didn't

1371
01:09:52,840 --> 01:09:57,480
Speaker 2: Know mart's. Thing and so there's the line of. Maliciousness

1372
01:09:57,640 --> 01:09:59,240
Speaker 2: like IF i roll through a stop SIDN i Know

1373
01:09:59,320 --> 01:10:04,840
Speaker 2: i'm rolling through a stop. Sign, sure but they.

1374
01:10:03,720 --> 01:10:06,400
Speaker 4: Said your your mom to eight Other diamondbacks and they

1375
01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:07,800
Speaker 4: all would have laughed at off and.

1376
01:10:07,840 --> 01:10:09,840
Speaker 2: He might have been shouting stuff all. Night we like

1377
01:10:10,439 --> 01:10:14,120
Speaker 2: but like, one but that's the one that obviously it,

1378
01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:18,760
Speaker 2: happens and it pushes, forward and, like fan behavior is

1379
01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:22,400
Speaker 2: an age construct that we're trying to figure out and

1380
01:10:22,439 --> 01:10:25,160
Speaker 2: wrap our arms around in a new new. Age, Right

1381
01:10:25,240 --> 01:10:29,160
Speaker 2: we've SEEN nba players throw guys. Out we've had the

1382
01:10:29,400 --> 01:10:32,599

1405
01:11:41,560 --> 01:11:45,800
Speaker 4: you can, right you're. Wrong BUT i JUST i feel

1406
01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:48,559
Speaker 4: that there was a portion of the people who were just, like, Oh,

1407
01:11:48,640 --> 01:11:51,000
Speaker 4: marte you got a tough. ENOUGH i can't believe that

1408
01:11:51,080 --> 01:11:53,960
Speaker 4: you cry and this is you, know just a flipping.

1409
01:11:54,040 --> 01:11:57,600
Speaker 4: Comment maybe it, was but it's obviously affected someone to

1410
01:11:57,680 --> 01:11:59,640
Speaker 4: the point where he brought a grown man to.

1411
01:11:59,720 --> 01:12:01,280
Speaker 2: Tears, well that stuff is always going to be on

1412
01:12:01,360 --> 01:12:05,360
Speaker 2: the surface and being back In, chicago certainly it's front

1413
01:12:05,400 --> 01:12:08,960
Speaker 2: of mine for, him, sure, right whatever the, circumstance however

1414
01:12:09,160 --> 01:12:12,920
Speaker 2: long because we also don't, know like how long you

1415
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:15,640
Speaker 2: know it played played, out like in terms of his

1416
01:12:15,840 --> 01:12:19,600
Speaker 2: time In chicago and his mom and the accident and

1417
01:12:19,720 --> 01:12:24,400
Speaker 2: all of. That it's eight years. Later Does mater's always

1418
01:12:24,400 --> 01:12:26,760
Speaker 2: that doesn't, Matter it's always going to be under the.

1419
01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:31,479
Speaker 2: Surface and if it took one one, COMMENT i DON'T

1420
01:12:32,439 --> 01:12:35,479
Speaker 2: i don't know how many times he tried to engage

1421
01:12:35,560 --> 01:12:37,600
Speaker 2: him with a comment to where maybe it was a

1422
01:12:37,640 --> 01:12:41,840
Speaker 2: tipping point or maybe it was just there waiting for

1423
01:12:42,280 --> 01:12:45,800
Speaker 2: the first iteration of such a. Sting either, way it's

1424
01:12:45,880 --> 01:12:47,959
Speaker 2: it's a terrible. Situation there's no Question.

1425
01:12:47,800 --> 01:12:50,400
Speaker 4: Tory la knew, it and it was pointing the guy, out,

1426
01:12:50,560 --> 01:12:52,880
Speaker 4: yeah and immediately was, like this is not going to have.

1427
01:12:52,960 --> 01:12:56,200
Speaker 3: You, ALSO i, mean It's tuesday.

1428
01:12:56,280 --> 01:12:58,560
Speaker 4: Night White socks aren't playing great, baseball so there's not

1429
01:12:58,920 --> 01:13:02,320
Speaker 4: thirty thousand fans, there so comments get heard, more especially

1430
01:13:02,760 --> 01:13:04,960
Speaker 4: when you're as close as they, Were so all of

1431
01:13:05,040 --> 01:13:08,920
Speaker 4: those instances end up playing In BUT i JUST, i you,

1432
01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:12,120
Speaker 4: KNOW i refuse to make this guy be the, victim

1433
01:13:12,439 --> 01:13:14,200
Speaker 4: even THOUGH i think that there's ways that he could

1434
01:13:14,640 --> 01:13:16,680
Speaker 4: get back. IN i get it that his comment, was

1435
01:13:17,479 --> 01:13:19,479
Speaker 4: it's also being twenty two and at a baseball.

1436
01:13:19,560 --> 01:13:21,920
Speaker 2: Game, Yeah, no it's certainly not a. Victimhood it's like

1437
01:13:22,000 --> 01:13:23,760
Speaker 2: trying to find what the right term to put it.

1438
01:13:23,880 --> 01:13:27,240
Speaker 2: On it just seemed pretty severe for what might have

1439
01:13:27,280 --> 01:13:30,880
Speaker 2: been a things you would normally joke with folks. About,

1440
01:13:30,960 --> 01:13:33,880
Speaker 2: yeah and like we hear conversations in the if you

1441
01:13:33,960 --> 01:13:38,400
Speaker 2: go to games all the time that rise to levels

1442
01:13:38,479 --> 01:13:41,880
Speaker 2: where you're shocked that guys don't turn around and acknowledge

1443
01:13:42,360 --> 01:13:47,080
Speaker 2: right that it. Brushes in this, Case marte, said fans

1444
01:13:47,120 --> 01:13:49,240
Speaker 2: said the thing to, him and it brought all of

1445
01:13:49,320 --> 01:13:51,720
Speaker 2: those feelings. Back AND i feel for him and his,

1446
01:13:51,920 --> 01:13:56,280
Speaker 2: family and, hopefully you, know he can find whatever piece

1447
01:13:56,360 --> 01:13:59,960
Speaker 2: he needs with it to get back on on level

1448
01:14:00,200 --> 01:14:03,160
Speaker 2: ground in his, play because certainly the last couple of,

1449

Speaker 4: Realize the final two weeks Of, february right after The Super. Bowl,

1487
01:15:59,439 --> 01:16:01,920
Speaker 4: and the data on a five, hundred you're show in

1488
01:16:02,040 --> 01:16:05,280

1499
01:16:29,320 --> 01:16:32,519

1500
01:16:32,720 --> 01:16:34,960
Speaker 4: nba with a couple of the news, today you, know

1501
01:16:35,040 --> 01:16:38,080
Speaker 4: The timberwolves bringing Back Julius. Randall i'm just the only

1502
01:16:38,160 --> 01:16:42,840
Speaker 4: Reason i'm curious on Where minnesota goes is how do

1503
01:16:42,920 --> 01:16:47,360
Speaker 4: you improve on losing in The Western Conference finals in

1504
01:16:47,840 --> 01:16:51,040
Speaker 4: five games two years in a. Row like last year

1505
01:16:51,160 --> 01:16:54,040
Speaker 4: was the big splash of The Karl Anthony towns trade

1506
01:16:54,120 --> 01:16:56,800
Speaker 4: to bring In Julius. Randall now it's what do The

1507
01:16:56,840 --> 01:16:59,920
Speaker 4: timberwolves do and bringing Back Nas reed and now bringing

1508
01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:04,240
Speaker 4: Back Julius, randall and Obviously Anthony edwards is the key piece.

1509
01:17:04,280 --> 01:17:08,439
Speaker 4: There it's now finding everybody else around those three are

1510
01:17:08,520 --> 01:17:12,200
Speaker 4: figuring out what's going to be the recipe for, success

1511
01:17:12,240 --> 01:17:15,240
Speaker 4: because you've shown you can get that. Far but now

1512
01:17:15,280 --> 01:17:17,360
Speaker 4: you've got to figure out the moves to put you

1513
01:17:17,520 --> 01:17:20,559
Speaker 4: over the. Top and, Sometimes i'd say more often than,

1514
01:17:20,600 --> 01:17:22,240
Speaker 4: Not mike teams try to figure out.

1515
01:17:22,200 --> 01:17:25,040
Speaker 3: Those moves and they end up going in. Reverse so

1516
01:17:25,080 --> 01:17:26,320
Speaker 3: we'll see What minnesota ends up.

1517
01:17:26,320 --> 01:17:29,479
