Speaker 3: What does that mean?

20
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 1: But I gotta say this right and really, positivity promoting

21
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 1: positivity lack of positivity has kind of been a thing

22
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: since we opened the microphones.

23
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 3: On tonight's show, right, we talked about positivity.

24
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 4: I'm all about positivity. I'm all about having fun. I'm

25
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 4: like champ time man.

26
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 1: Now you're not really you were. You were very anti positivity.

27
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 1: You were very anti Micah Parsons. You talked about whatever

28
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: it was with him throwing a fit with a sand

29
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 1: castle and it's okay, And then I.

30
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,399
Speaker 4: Mean, just because you took it as a negative, I

31
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 4: was just kind of laying as it was.

32
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: Oh, Micah Parson's throwing a fit, is he gonna he's

33
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: gonna throw his sand toys out?

34
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 3: Because I'm not gonna give more money.

35
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 4: You kept putting him on the sand I just had

36
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,479
Speaker 4: walking out the door like he was running away.

37
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: I had to remind you about positivity. I had to

38
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 1: put more money where my mouth is about positivity because

39
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: the way the Yankees lost tonight. But you know, if.

40
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 4: It's not positive, shot and Freud and you running amok?

41
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 4: I got and how many times did you text your dad?

42
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 3: You know what? The number?

43
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,279
Speaker 1: The number is not important. The point is I reached

44
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 1: out to him after the way the Yankees lost this

45
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 1: game and I to the Marlins, which was unbelievably awful

46
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: and a game that could absolutely be a game that

47
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 1: you look back and say that sunk our season the

48
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,919
Speaker 1: way the Yankees lost this game. And then we had

49
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:27,080
Speaker 1: the Rockies win this game seventeen to sixteen about five

50
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 1: minutes ago over the Pirates, who scored nine. They were

51
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 1: winning nine nothing before the Rockies even came to bat

52
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 1: nine nothing.

53
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 4: You realize, yeah, this is the Pirates have done this

54
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 4: in franchise history.

55
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 3: A nine run lead have all been since two thousand.

56
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 1: No, look, I mean and and look nine to nothing

57
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 1: and they can't protect a four run lead in the

58
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: top of the ninth, and and Breton Doyle hits a

59
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: two run walk off homer for the final two runs.

60
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: They win seventeen sixteen. There were forty hits in this game.

61
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 1: But man, and the Pirates blowing this game. This is

62
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: like in a season where things are going bad, It's like,

63
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:06,359
Speaker 1: how could things get even worse?

64
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:06,639
Speaker 3: Right?

65
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: I mean, we just lost. You didn't just this wasn't

66
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: the d This wasn't the Dodgers. We blew this game

67
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 1: to and Otani at three home runs or you know,

68
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 1: Bryce Harper hit a couple of home runs or Juan

69
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: Soto at three or no, we lost the worst team

70
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:22,639
Speaker 1: in Major League Baseball? Who are trying to fight against

71
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 1: losing the most games in the.

72
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:25,799
Speaker 3: History of the game.

73
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 1: Like, that's where we're at, that's what we're trying to

74
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 1: and this is the team we blew this lead to.

75
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 4: Isn't that great? It's and Andrew McCutcheon turned back the clock.

76
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 3: It was.

77
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 1: This was like a game in Corps in the early

78
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: nineties where a five run lead felt like the game

79
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 1: was tied and at least one team was in double

80
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: digits at the end of the game, right like when

81
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: when you were you were doing fantasy baseball the nineties,

82
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 1: I'm streaming whatever position player is playing in Coors Field.

83
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: I'm just treaming that guy tonight because I know he's gonna.

84
00:03:58,840 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 3: Have a big night.

85
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 4: I remember writing a column and eventually there was another.

86
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 4: There was a show that did a thing about, you know,

87
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 4: a guy having issues setting a line up in his

88
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 4: bobbleheads talking to him. I forget about that, Thanks for

89
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 4: reading back in the day. But it was a Yahoo

90
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 4: column and one of the bobbleheads that was talking to

91
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 4: me was and Ellis Burks. A lot of Rockies, Okay,

92
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,280
Speaker 4: so you know having those you know, fantasy draft kind

93
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 4: of conversations that you would have of, you know, do

94
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 4: you like the youth and guys with great upside so

95
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 4: you could say I was there when they started and

96
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 4: say I'm the smartest guy in the room because of

97
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 4: my prospecting ability, or do you go with the you know, tired,

98
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 4: tried and true guys at that point. That's what Ellis

99
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 4: Burks would have been when that column was written. But

100
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 4: think about those lineups back in the day, with the

101
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 4: Big Cat and Larry Walker and all these guys.

102
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 5: That was what this game kind of felt like.

103
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:59,159
Speaker 6: Castilla, sure, and the home road splits were the most

104
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 6: absurd you'd seen based on history.

105
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,600
Speaker 1: Average runs at home seven point nine, average runs on

106
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 1: the road one point three.

107
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 7: Uh.

108
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 1: But with tonight being about positivity, you know, I got

109
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 1: a zig here a little bit.

110
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 8: Uh.

111
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 1: I have four a list of who I really don't

112
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,359
Speaker 1: want to be tonight ranked? Oh, okay, who I don't

113
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:20,840
Speaker 1: want to be tonight ranked?

114
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 4: So I mean the positivity is if you're ranked fourth

115
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 4: on this list.

116
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, positivity ranked fourth on this list?

117
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 5: Just outside the metal stand.

118
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'll go I'll go in in descending, I'll

119
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 1: hit you with the big one off the gate.

120
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 3: Just stop it up. Justin Fields threw a couple of

121
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 3: good passes. Today.

122
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 1: He threw a couple of bad ones, but he threw

123
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 1: a couple of good ones. Number One, I really don't

124
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,919
Speaker 1: want to be Yankee fans tonight, because again, this is

125
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 1: one of those games where you can point to and

126
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 1: say that's where our season ended. Blowing a nine to

127
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: four lead to the Marlins, taking a two run lead

128
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 1: into the bottom of the ninth inning in Miami and

129
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 1: losing on a walk off, and having all your new

130
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 1: additions cast to the game, Cabairo making a horrible error

131
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,840
Speaker 1: in right field, allowing the game to get tied. All

132
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 1: your new relievers came in and gave up seven runs

133
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 1: in the last three innings, including your pseudo closer you

134
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 1: were bringing in that was gonna not take the job

135
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: from Devin Williams, and after tonight, really really I could

136
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 1: take the job. So like, this is one of those

137
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 1: games where it's just you're a Yankee fan. You're staring

138
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: at the wall until four o'clock in the morning, like

139
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: I can't believe we lost this game. So Number one,

140
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,279
Speaker 1: I don't want to be Yankee fans. Okay, Number two,

141
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: I don't want to be any of the New Yankees editions.

142
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 1: All right, because that's it now, because the honeymoon is over.

143
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: The number yeah, one day, one day of it, and

144
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 1: the honeymoon is over now suddenly. Don't read the back

145
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 1: page of the Post, of the Daily News or even

146
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 1: the Staten Island Advance. You don't want to read any

147
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,719
Speaker 1: of that, because boy, it's not gonna be great. Yesterday

148
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,279
Speaker 1: you were a stud in the Savior. Tonight it was

149
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: meet the new bullpen, same as the old bullpen. Right,

150
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 1: you don't want to be there?

151
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:48,040
Speaker 7: Right?

152
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 4: Number two, nicely done. That's that's very good. And yes,

153
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 4: honeymoons are are very short now.

154
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 3: Number three, number three.

155
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: I don't want to be anybody who could you know,

156
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 1: they've had meetings about this, and you know there's the

157
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 1: inner sanctum. I don't want to be any of the

158
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 1: two three how many people there are in the Pirates

159
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,160

Speaker 3: blew the games.

263
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 1: I'd rather be Ronnie Mauricio, who struck out like didn't

00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:30,960
Speaker 1: even want to be part of that last that bat

265

00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 4: We've got a candidate from the White Sox Angels game though,

269
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 4: I mean, and men, it's White Sox Angels, so I

270
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 4: mean take it with a grain of salt.

271
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 3: Well, dude, this was Rocky's Pirates gone no, no.

272
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 4: But I'm just saying that in the context of you know,

273
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 4: it's White Sox Angels and and you know, I chewed

274
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 4: going tonight. I'm gonna try to go on Sunday and

Speaker 4: show support to the to the White Sox and all.

276
00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 4: But we had an opportunity, uh well for potential chaos, right,

277
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 4: Angels trying to mount a comeback, and you have this

278
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:08,200
Speaker 4: a play at third guy kind of lolly gagging on

279
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 4: his way home. Dude gets thrown out at third base,

280
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 4: one step before the guy would have scored the tying run.

281
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 10: Oh so he didn't didn't get there, He didn't get

282
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 10: to the get home in time because he was he

283
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 10: rounded third casually kind of coming around.

284
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 4: Oh great, it was like nope, that guy got thrown

285
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 4: out at third.

286
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: Oh man, Yeah, that's uh, that's rough man. Although, hey,

287
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: that's nothing. That's a drop in the bucket compared to

288
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 1: the Yankees and what happened to the Pirates.

289
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 4: Come on, man, yeah, Compara gets thrown out at third?

290
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 4: Uh yeah, just just no good.

291
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 1: Can you imagine what would have happened to me if

292
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 1: the Yankees played the Pirates?

293
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 3: I just blew your mind. I just blew your mind.

294
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:49,640
Speaker 3: Right now.

295
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,439
Speaker 1: That game would be twenty five twenty four right now,

296
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 1: in the sixth inning, and they each team would be

297
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: on position players pitching, and there would be there would

298
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 1: be four twenty five hits in the game in twenty

299
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 1: four errors. That's what tonight would be if they played.

300
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 4: No, it's funny, right, it was one of the more

301
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 4: insane things. Travis Darnow was actually the guy gonna score

302
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 4: and Comparo got tagged out at third. His foot was

303
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 4: coming down over home blade but he hadn't touched yet.

304
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:23,679
Speaker 5: It's a really great theater.

305
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:29,199
Speaker 4: One of the most insane baseball game days we've ever seen, right,

306
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 4: I mean we talked about all of the trades and

307
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 4: bullpen arms flying all over the place, and the chaos.

308
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 4: All right, you're traded in the middle of a doubleheader.

309
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 4: Everything we saw these last two weeks right when this

310

00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 1: it's tomorrow late, maybe it's Sunday, but we are going

367
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:25,080
Speaker 1: to get a Luka Doncic contract extension with the Lakers.

368
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 1: I'm thinking most likely three years, a two to one something.

369
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 1: It gets into ten years in the league where he

370
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 1: can gain the maximum amount of money after being in

371
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:33,760
Speaker 1: the league.

372
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 3: For ten years.

373
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 1: But he's here, He's in the United States. Ah, so

374
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 1: why is he the United States? Oh, he's on TV.

375
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 1: He's on the Today Show. He's joking around about his contract.

376
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 1: If he wasn't gonna sign with the Lakers this weekend,

377
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 1: you would not know where he was. He would be

378
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 1: zero dark twenty three to quote quote Lebron James.

379
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 5: No, you still had to sell shoes all week He's

380
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 5: still yeah.

381
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 1: But still But oh, you're here for the beginning of August. Oh,

382
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,480
Speaker 1: it's so interesting. You could have sold shoes a lot. Oh,

383
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:04,439
Speaker 1: you're here and now, speaking of Lebron, this is going

384
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 1: to be when the fun starts. But don't take my

385
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 1: word for it. Let's see what Rick Buker has to say.

386
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 1: Fox Sports One, NBA Inside or Extraordinaire joins us. He's

387
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,680
Speaker 1: on Twitter at Rick Buker, Rick Happy Friday, Man.

388
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,080
Speaker 7: Friday, gentleman, how are we doing here?

389
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 3: Buddy?

390
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:26,680
Speaker 7: The w the big WNBA section of the sports calendar

391
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:27,440
Speaker 7: help you?

392
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:28,960
Speaker 3: I don't know.

393
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 1: I think I think the Luka Dancers contract extension is

394
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,240
Speaker 1: gonna give me some pretty big headlines over the course

395
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:34,880
Speaker 1: of this weekend.

396
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:36,760
Speaker 3: Or do you think there's a way it doesn't happen.

397
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 7: No, I would expect that it's going to happen. But

398
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:41,679
Speaker 7: I do think that it's going to be very telling

399
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 7: in terms of which one he signed the four year,

400
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:49,720
Speaker 7: two hundred and twenty million dollar deals for the three year,

401
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:54,399
Speaker 7: one sixty with which is basically he has the option

402
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:57,879
Speaker 7: to get out in two years and then sign a

403
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 7: supermax for like four hundred million dollars, which is just

404
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:03,879
Speaker 7: crazy when you stop and think about it. Somebody's going

405
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 7: to sign for four hundred million tis I know when

406
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 7: you could buy like three franchises for that. And so

407
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,200
Speaker 7: there's that. But I think what's going to be very

408
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:21,159
Speaker 7: telling is if he takes the short term, then obviously

409
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 7: he has a lot of confidence in uh in his

410
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 7: ability to stay healthy. And the one caveat there if

411
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 7: he takes the three year one sixty is the other

412
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,679
Speaker 7: team in town, which if you look at what the

413
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 7: Clippers are right are doing right now, they are looking

414
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 7: to go big game hunting in two years from now.

415
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 7: That's why they're signing all these vet guys, Chris Paul's

416
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 7: and the Bradley Beals in order to keep their powder dry.

417
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,920
Speaker 7: Because eight of those guys, including all the big guys

418
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,680
Speaker 7: James Hard and Kawhi Leonard, the guys that I just mentioned,

419
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 7: all of them are often so they're going to have

420
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,120
Speaker 7: a ton of cap room. And I'm told that Steve

421
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 7: Balmer wants to go big game hunting in two years.

422
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 7: He wants to be he wants to be competitive the

423
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 7: next two years, but he wants to go big game hunting,

424
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 7: and on his list Ari Janniste Tecumpo and Luka Doncic,

425
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,159
Speaker 7: and so I don't know where things are going to

426
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 7: go with the Lakers. I would assume that Doncis isn't

427
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 7: going to change franchises. I'm not predicting that by any

428
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 7: stretch of the imagination. I'm just telling you there's somebody

429
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 7: out there that if he signed three years, one sixty,

430
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 7: it leaves the door open for somebody to poach him,

431
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,720
Speaker 7: as opposed to him just sticking around, because then if

432
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 7: the pressure is on the Lakers, what are you going

433
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 7: to do in the next two years to show him

434
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:46,120
Speaker 7: that you can be competitive. If he signed the four

435
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:50,200
Speaker 7: year two twenty, on the other hand, then it also

436
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:54,440
Speaker 7: makes me wonder how confident is he in his health?

437
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,160
Speaker 7: Is he taking the money now? Is he assuring himself

438
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:02,160
Speaker 7: a two hundred million plus Let's face it, like he's

439
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 7: had some injuries at this stage already in his career,

440
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:10,160
Speaker 7: and when guys are are dinged up like that, then

441
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:13,439
Speaker 7: sometimes they like the security of the money. So I

442
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,199
Speaker 7: don't have any doubt that he's going to sign with

443
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,160
Speaker 7: the Lakers in the next day or so. But which

444
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 7: contract he signs will say a lot about where his

445
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 7: mindset is.

446
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:22,360
Speaker 3: Well.

447
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,959
Speaker 4: Either way, we got the road to swollen all off season.

448
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,040
Speaker 4: I mean that men's health cover. I mean, let's go

449
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 4: yeah airbrush Jo.

450
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well that's a hot take, Rick, that is a

451
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:37,440
Speaker 1: hot take.

452
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,080
Speaker 7: Perfect, perfect lighting.

453
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 8: Yo.

454
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:43,359
Speaker 7: Look, I spent enough time in TV. I know, I

455
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 7: know all the tricks of the trade. I worked. I

456
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 7: worked for ESPN the magazine for fourteen years. I was

457
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 7: at the photo shoot. I know what can be done.

458
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:58,879
Speaker 7: Maybe he's maybe he's turned into Annis. Maybe he's and

459
00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:02,040
Speaker 7: very well may have lost lost weight and he made

460
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 7: very well. I said this when he got traded like that,

461
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,679
Speaker 7: being traded by the Dallas Mavericks may may just be

462
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 7: the kick in the ass that he needs to say,

463
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,639
Speaker 7: you can't live the same lifestyle you did over in

464
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 7: Europe when you were playing three games a week like

465
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 7: that's not going to get it done in the uber

466
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 7: athletic NBA. And maybe this is what he needed to

467
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 7: make that change. But I'm sorry, I've Maybe it wasn't

468
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,879
Speaker 7: a magazine cover because he wasn't with the Lakers, but

469
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 7: I heard a similar story about Luka Dancis getting in

470
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 7: shape and finally taking his his his lifestyle. Seriously, I've

471
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 7: seen that story written at least three times since he

472
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:47,199
Speaker 7: came into the league. So this is number four. Like

473
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,720
Speaker 7: I'm good. Yeah, I'm gonna need to see it last

474
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 7: a little bit longer than a photo shoot in order

475
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:55,199
Speaker 7: for me to believe that he's in shape.

476
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:56,159
Speaker 3: I mean, Rick, you know me.

477
00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,320
Speaker 4: I've been into the cards and collectibles thing forever. I

478
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 4: still want that beer that Michael Finley took out of

479
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 4: his hand for my direction.

480
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:09,440
Speaker 7: I want to absolutely, absolutely I'm I think I still

481
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 7: have Mike Finley's numbers. I'll see where that might be.

482
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:14,199
Speaker 3: All Right, we'll hang out.

483
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:15,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tweet out here what you said a couple

484
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:18,160
Speaker 1: of seconds ago from Rick Buker with us on Fox

485
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. It's quite impossible, Luka Doncic is a Donnis Jordan.

486
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,439
Speaker 3: Okay, there we go, there, we got there.

487
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 1: Now look now, Rick, honestly, I have to think for

488
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,159
Speaker 1: this contract for Luca, Yes, he could go four and

489
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 1: two twenty nine, but the whole thing about the three

490
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 1: years is if he gets to ten years in the league,

491
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,200
Speaker 1: suddenly you know that's another year of making the max

492
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 1: money that he can make, and it gets into even

493
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 1: stupider money than it is now. So I gotta think that,

494
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: you know, I'm okay with it. If I'm the Lakers, Yeah,

495
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: you'd want to sign four and two twenty nine, But say, hey, listen,

496
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:55,440
Speaker 1: if I do a three or a two plus one

497
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:57,720
Speaker 1: as you said, where I can opt out depending where

498
00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 1: things are. But I gotta think that that's the kind

499
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 1: of contract that he's going to sign with the Lakers.

500
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,119
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think for a second it's going

501
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 1: to be four years.

502
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:15,240
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, I guess we'll see. I would think so too. Normally,

503
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,399
Speaker 7: if guys aren't worried about their health, they're going to

504
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 7: bet on themselves, then they're going to take the shorter contracts.

505
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 7: I just don't know where Luca is in terms of

506
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 7: being confident when it comes to that. And if I'm

507
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 7: the Lakers, honestly, if I can get him four years

508
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:36,440
Speaker 7: for two twenty, I mean that gives me a longer runway.

509
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:40,880
Speaker 7: And the tricky part is, so two years from now

510
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:45,880
Speaker 7: he's signing a four hundred million dollar deal. In today's world,

511
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:50,879
Speaker 7: with today's salary cap, that really hampers their ability to

512
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 7: put pieces around him. And yeah, we saw it with

513
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:59,200
Speaker 7: the Dallas Mavericks. Like as good as he was individually,

514
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 7: it wasn't until they went out they got some other

515
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:06,239
Speaker 7: pieces that were the cost a little bit. It took him.

516
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 7: It took him a couple of years to put together

517
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 7: a roster around him that was capable of going to

518
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 7: the finals. It still wasn't able to win it all,

519
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 7: but was capable of going to the finals. I don't

520
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 7: see anything significantly different in LA.

521
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 2: It's it may be.

522
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 7: Slightly easier to get players in LA, although Dallas has

523
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 7: always been an attraction Texas with no state tax Dallas,

524
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,360
Speaker 7: the Dallas Mavericks have always had a lot going for them.

525
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 7: I just I think it's going to be once he.

526
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:39,879
Speaker 2: Signs that big deal.

527
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:46,879
Speaker 7: It's again with today's salary cap. Yeah, the Lakers have

528
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 7: him locked up, but if it's like he needs to

529
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:54,640
Speaker 7: win championships, you know what, I hope they they they

530
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,880
Speaker 7: make great strides in the next couple of years when

531
00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:59,640
Speaker 7: his salary is still manageable.

532
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 4: Rick, what's the next part of the saga? You mentioned

533
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:05,440
Speaker 4: Steve Balmer earlier and his wish list of who he

534
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,919
Speaker 4: wants to bring in. I had to do a double

535
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 4: take when we got the photos from Mishko Raznatovich's both

536
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 4: because I thought it was Steve Balmer sitting in the

537
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:17,880
Speaker 4: middle of it all. What's the next part of the

538
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,880
Speaker 4: second act of Lebron James.

539
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,000
Speaker 7: Uh, he's riding it out in la I know that

540
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 7: there's a lot of excitement or thought about that that

541
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:34,040
Speaker 7: meeting USA. Misco being the agent for Nikola Jokicsko also

542
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 7: happens to be the agent for like one thousand players.

543
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 7: If you ever look at this client list, it is incredible.

544
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,560
Speaker 7: He's also a Vita Zoo bots. I mean, you go

545
00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:51,880
Speaker 7: down the line a number of quality international players, Misco

546
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 7: has them. Joki is just at the top of the list.

547
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,360
Speaker 7: And I know that that that Instagram photo put out

548
00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:01,439
Speaker 7: by Misco no less uh and something about the summer

549
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 7: of twenty five is a great time to be making plans,

550
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:09,200
Speaker 7: big plans for twenty twenty six, And everybody jumped the conclusion, oh,

551
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 7: Lebron's gonna go join the Nuggets. No, what I understand

552
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 7: is that and this is I don't know exactly which

553
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 7: side of this coin that Lebron and mav stand on.

554
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:25,440
Speaker 7: But I've heard a lot of rumblings that the NBA

555
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,959
Speaker 7: is looking to be very aggressive and planning its flag

556
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:33,880
Speaker 7: and building the vision in Europe and and and they're

557
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 7: trying to make moves on that front. Now, I don't

558
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:40,159
Speaker 7: know whether Lebron and MAV were meeting with Misco in

559
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 7: order to discuss talent, you know, locations like hey, if

560
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 7: we ended up taking one of the expansion teams coming

561
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,359
Speaker 7: over here from from the NBA, where where would be

562
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 7: the best place for us to do business. I don't

563
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 7: know if it was that conversation or it was and

564
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,880
Speaker 7: this is just be so classic Lebron fighting the hand

565
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:09,200
Speaker 7: that feeds him, MAV and Lebron knowing that the NBA

566
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 7: wants to make moves that way, and they're like, well,

567
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:14,840
Speaker 7: we're gonna go over and we're gonna build our own league,

568
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:18,440
Speaker 7: Like we're gonna we're gonna create a rival. Because I've

569
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 7: seen that reported that Lebron and mat were meeting in

570
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:30,280
Speaker 7: order to discuss a sixteen men's and women's leagues, two leagues.

571
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 7: I just don't know if it was in conjunction with

572
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,239
Speaker 7: what the NBA wants to do, which I've heard is

573
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,479
Speaker 7: very similar they'd love to have a w NBA and

574
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 7: an NBA division over there. So I don't know whether

575
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,679
Speaker 7: that was the auspices of MAV and Lebron working in

576
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 7: conjunction with the NBA, or they're doing a night Isaiah

577
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 7: Thomas who bought the Continental Basketball Association thinking that he

578
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 7: was gonna he was going to compete against G League,

579
00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:00,160
Speaker 7: and the NBA put him out of business pretty quick.

580
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 7: I would imagine the same thing would happen to Lebron

581
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:05,520
Speaker 7: and MAV if they decided to go head to heads

582
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 7: with the NBA and trying to plan a flag in Europe.

583
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:09,360
Speaker 7: But we shall see.

584
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 1: See I see it this way, Rick, and this is this,

585
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:13,200
Speaker 1: This is what I look at.

586
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:17,160
Speaker 3: I keep coming back to. Lebron is not a guy that's.

587
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:20,080
Speaker 1: Gonna play out a season, right, He's he's too big

588
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 1: a star, he's too big, an icon, too big, He's

589
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:26,440
Speaker 1: not gonna play out a season. Everything he's done this offseason,

590
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 1: he's daring the Lakers to trade them. He's telling he's

591
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: telling them that I want out without doing the James

592
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:35,159
Speaker 1: Harden this is untenable. I want out, right, you have

593
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 1: the you have the workout in the Cavaliers facility, which is, Oh, no,

594
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 1: it's just a workout. You have the welcome home hat.

595
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, it's just a hat. You have the

596
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,760
Speaker 1: Oh I'm just working out at the Clippers facility with

597
00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 1: the logo in back of me. Oh, I'm just happy

598
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 1: to be hanging out with the Kola Jokic's agent. And

599
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 1: I'm not tamping any of this down. I'm not saying whoa, whoa, whoa, Hey,

600
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 1: how you guys are running away with this. I'm a

601
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 1: Laker first and foremost. This is this is I think

602
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 1: I look at this gamesmanship all summer between Lebron and

603
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 1: the Lakers of who's gonna blink first.

604
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 3: Are the Lakers going to say, fine, will buy.

605
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 1: You out, and and and and you can go where

606
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 1: if you want to, or Lebron trying to force or

607
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 1: or Lebron to a forced way to say, you have

608
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,640
Speaker 1: to talk about I need you to trade me. I

609
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 1: need you to trade me. And it's it's who blinks

610
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,320
Speaker 1: first between the Lakers and Lebron. That that's kind of

611
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 1: how I see all the stuff Lebron been doing.

612
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,240
Speaker 7: Well, there's no way, there's no way that they can

613
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 7: trade him. There's no there's just it's not it's not

614
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 7: realistic that he's going to go to a contending team.

615
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 7: So the buyout thing, and if he's angling for that,

616
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 7: I agree with you. I do think he's pouting. I

617
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 7: do think that he's not happy and that he's trying to,

618
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 7: you know, in his passive aggressive way, let everybody know that.

619
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:48,640
Speaker 7: I just don't know that there's more to it necessarily

620
00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 7: than that, because it would mean abandoning Bronnie uh, not

621
00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 7: playing another year with him, and where is he necessarily

622
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 7: going to go? And I just I haven't heard of

623
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 7: a lot of teams that are like really hot and

624
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 7: you know, hot hot on getting Lebron at this stage.

625
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 7: Even you know, obviously there would be teams if they

626
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 7: were getting him on the minimum. But it's like, Lebron

627
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 7: James is just such a big figure and he's just

628
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 7: such a big presence. I'm not saying that he's he's

629
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 7: a negative, but he's he's a load. And and if

630
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 7: you're a team taking that on, then you've got to

631
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 7: figure out, like do our personalities mesh and just I mean,

632
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 7: just honestly, look at what he's doing with the Lakers

633
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 7: right now. Like for all that the Lakers have done

634
00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 7: for him to this point, and the fact that you've

635
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:50,680
Speaker 7: got a Luca donk. It's there, and they are making

636
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 7: no bones about the fact that they're moving on and

637
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 7: they're building around Luca, which just makes perfect sense. I mean,

638
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 7: if you're Lebron, how can you get mad at that?

639
00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:01,680
Speaker 7: But he is, He's he clearly he's he's not happy

640
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 7: about not having the power that he wants. Hag Well,

641
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 7: if he goes someplace else. If I'm a team and

642
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,640
Speaker 7: I'm looking at I'm going, well, what happens if we

643
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 7: don't do what he wants?

644
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 2: Like?

645
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 7: Are we going to get the same pouting? Are we

646
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 7: going to get the same passive aggressive behavior? So I

647
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 7: just I don't I know he probably, you know, is

648
00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 7: in a perfect world, would go someplace else and play

649
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 7: for a title. I just don't know that that place exists.

650
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 7: So as of right now, I'm looking at all he's

651
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 7: done this summer, and I agree with you like he's

652
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:40,360
Speaker 7: rattling the cage. I don't know that it in the

653
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 7: in the end, it's going to be more than that

654
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 7: that He's just going to let everybody know that I'm

655
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 7: not happy and I'm not used to this treatment. As

656
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 7: opposed to it's going to force the Lakers too. I mean,

657
00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:57,560
Speaker 7: even a buyout doesn't make a whole lot of sense,

658
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 7: but that would be the only that's the only way

659
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,320
Speaker 7: this comes to an end. There's not a trade out there.

660
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:07,080
Speaker 7: There's not There's not a team that's giving up fifty

661
00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 7: two million dollars worth of players and still being a tender,

662
00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:14,040
Speaker 7: or giving up fifty two million dollars worth of players

663
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 7: to get a Lebron James for one year.

Speaker 1: that's what's going Either that or we now.

778
00:37:56,760 --> 00:38:02,160
Speaker 4: Have true triple confirmation and about the popularity of.

779
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 5: The colored green. Green is for the money.

780
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:09,160
Speaker 1: Green's a big deal. Hey, you certainly see it, right,

781
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:12,839
Speaker 1: I could see it now. Look, there's the thing about this, right,

782
00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:16,759
Speaker 1: and some WNBA players players in tonight's game between the

783
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:20,160
Speaker 1: Valkyrie and the Sky talked about it after Sophie Cunningham's

784
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 1: already been on Twitter saying, listen, don't throw stuff on

785
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:26,799
Speaker 1: the court. It's dangerous, and I get it right. The

786
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 1: thing is, though, if I'm the WNBA, I want to

787
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:36,040
Speaker 1: fight this thing quietly rather than with all kinds of attention,

788
00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:39,239
Speaker 1: because what this is, this is like it's one of

789
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:42,040
Speaker 1: those fads, right that you see in sports. Right in

790
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 1: the seventies and eighties, it was streaking at games. You know,

791
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,280
Speaker 1: it's still people running on the field now. That happens

792
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:49,680
Speaker 1: once in a while, and it's not something you want

793
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:52,480
Speaker 1: to give a lot of publicity to because that just

794
00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 1: feeds it. Obviously, it happened at the game the other

795
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,160
Speaker 1: night and it got a lot of attention. So guess well,

796
00:38:57,200 --> 00:38:58,839
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it again. Whether it's the same person

797
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 1: or I don't know, but guess what I want because

798
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:02,560
Speaker 1: I want to be the one to throw it on

799
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:06,600
Speaker 1: the court. The more attention this story gets, the more

800
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,240
Speaker 1: the more you run into Hey, it's gonna keep happening.

801
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:14,600
Speaker 1: It's like those crazy TikTok trends that people keep doing

802
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:18,439
Speaker 1: and that wind up getting it being hazardous at some point, like, hey,

803
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:19,279
Speaker 1: what is this going?

804
00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:19,680
Speaker 3: What is this?

805
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,319
Speaker 1: Why are people doing this? Oh, it's a TikTok trend, right,

806
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 1: the tide pod challenge. It started a few years ago. Like,

807
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:27,719
Speaker 1: that's kind of what this is. So this is why

808
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:32,399
Speaker 1: I understand MLB teams and NFL teams not showing when

809
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,440
Speaker 1: someone runs on the field. You don't want to promote

810
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:37,920
Speaker 1: that happens. Like if I'm a WNBA, like they showed

811
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:40,799
Speaker 1: this and you see this video, I'm like, Okay, if

812
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,200
Speaker 1: that happens, we're not going to it on the broadcast.

813
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:46,799
Speaker 1: Like I guarantee you there's some kind of meeting with

814
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:50,280
Speaker 1: Kathy Engelberton whoever else TV partner's going that happens. Again,

815
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,680
Speaker 1: we're not showing it. Do not show it. Do not

816
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:54,880
Speaker 1: show it, do not draw attention to it. Now, you

817
00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 1: can't help with people have cell phones and they videotape

818
00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 1: it going out, But we're not gonna show it on

819
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:01,439
Speaker 1: the broad because that's an easy thing to say.

820
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:03,400
Speaker 3: Look at this, it's on the broadcast and great video.

821
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:04,359
Speaker 3: I can see it right here.

822
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:07,359
Speaker 1: Don't show it, don't I gotta think that's the next thing,

823
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,680
Speaker 1: because this is something that, yeah, it's embarrassing because you

824
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:11,759
Speaker 1: make the jump that, oh it's women and here's sex

825
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:14,879
Speaker 1: toys and it's really but you fight this like you've

826
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,840
Speaker 1: seen it been fought in the past. The less attention

827
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:21,840
Speaker 1: on this the lower of a chance of it continuing

828
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:22,800
Speaker 1: on and being disruptive.

829
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:24,279
Speaker 5: It is No, it's tough, is right?

830
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:27,400
Speaker 4: You have Indiana and Dallas play right, No, Caitlin Clark

831
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,759
Speaker 4: still sidelined, but you know, ten point game, okay, not

832
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 4: particularly close, but not as bad a blowout as some

833
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 4: of these other games. Steve broad Thing, you know a

834
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:39,320
Speaker 4: couple of the stats out of the LA and Seattle

835
00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:44,080
Speaker 4: double overtime thriller. But three times this week we've had

836
00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:47,759
Speaker 4: stories that have nothing to do with with play. You've

837
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:49,680
Speaker 4: got two of these for toys, and then you had

838
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:52,800
Speaker 4: the other one where the wig came off and play

839
00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:55,359
Speaker 4: was stopped and someone got ejected because they made fun

840
00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:58,200
Speaker 4: of it. So, I mean, you're you're getting all these

841
00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:01,360
Speaker 4: bad headlines, even if you're getting great play on the court,

842
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,840
Speaker 4: is getting no attention because the side show is overtaking it.

843
00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:07,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, I really, I I gotta think you have to

844
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:09,600
Speaker 1: be able to back off and say Okay, let's fight

845
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:11,960
Speaker 1: this as quietly as possible so it doesn't become a

846
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:12,520
Speaker 1: bigger thing.

847
00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:13,279
Speaker 11: Uh.

848
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:15,399
Speaker 1: Lot more of this as it comes up throughout the show,

849
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:18,239
Speaker 1: but straight ahead, we got a big story out of

850
00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:22,640
Speaker 1: the NFL. The best defensive player in the game wants

851
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 1: out why he should get traded one hundred percent.

852
00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:29,880
Speaker 3: Coming up next right here, Jason and Mike Fox Sports Radio,
