29
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 6: I think I have the back store. I was here

30
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 6: yesterday there was a terrible rain storm. Todd had just

31
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 6: done taped his podcast, which was, from what I heard, outlandish,

32
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,959
Speaker 6: but more so Todd helped out with some leaking in

33
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 6: the back room. And Todd was actually helping out physically

34
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 6: sweeping properly and really helped out. I watched it, and

35
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 6: I think he's kind of fired up. He feels manly today.

36
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 5: I did something constructive Jay, when the back was showing

37
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 5: me the big German's brother how to mop the flo act.

38
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 5: It wasn't a mop, it was just kind of sweeping,

39
00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 5: so just pushing water towards the front door. I don't

40
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 5: really think I got much, but I appreciate that, PAULI.

41
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 5: You give me some positive vibes there.

42
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, Doling, they are two completely different videos. If you

43
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 4: watch it with and without sound. Without sound, you're like, wow,

44
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 4: look at Todd like helping sweep. And if you listen

45
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 4: to a sound, it's like, wow, this guy is complaining

46
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 4: the entire time.

47
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 7: Help me because in order to do that, I had

48
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 7: to get my feet.

49
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 5: We're in the little puddle there, so look, there's no

50
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 5: way you can't put your feet to the side. So

00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,640

69
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,359
Speaker 2: which is fine with me. I'm okay. It's not like, oh,

70
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 2: well you please, you drama queen. It's okay, Like once

74
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 3: Now.

75
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 2: The Miami Heat, their social media team apparently they got

76
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 2: a head start on this. According to Shams, the social

77
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 2: media department with the Miami Heat preparing for the possibility

78
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 2: of Lebron's signing, mistakenly posting the link to the team's

79
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 2: YouTube page. Now, the way I looked at this, this

80
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 2: may not show that the Heat are the favorites, but

81
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 2: may give us a timeline on when Lebron is going

82
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 2: to make his decision. Maybe the teams that are involved,

83
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 2: you know, the Cavaliers, the Sixers, Golden State, Miami, maybe

84
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 2: they've been told July twenty seventh is when Lebron is

85
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 2: going to make his decision. Now, I don't have any information,

86
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,919
Speaker 2: and I don't think anybody else does, But maybe Lebron

87
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 2: is saying I'm going to make my decision on that day.

88
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:24,039
Speaker 2: Be prepared in Miami, the Heat, you know, the heater

89
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 2: always buttoned up. You imagine there's probably some twenty three

90
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 2: year old intern pat Riley wants to see you about

91
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 2: what the social media post with the run. Okay, here

92
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 2: we are with the Miami Heat. They're always buttoned up.

93
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 2: But I looked at the twenty seventh of July and

94
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 2: I thought, okay, random day. But maybe it's not so random.

95
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 6: Yes, yes, Paul, I did look into this a little bit,

96
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 6: and it's mistakenly posted according to the Miami Heat. So

97
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 6: their YouTube page, I asked one of the brgs who

98
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,600
Speaker 6: does this kind of stuff. When you put together social

99
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 6: media posts or website updates or things like this, there's

100
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 6: like a queue where you could see what it's going

101
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 6: to look like, and if you hit the wrong button,

102
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 6: it publishes instead of like tests it out. So it

103
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 6: could have been a mistake.

104
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 2: Well, it was a mistake that it was posted. I'm

105
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 2: just wanting to know if that's the date that everybody

106
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 2: thinks that this is going to happen. Also, I was

107
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 2: looking at, you know, the favorites according to DraftKings for

108
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 2: next year. The odds, and then you have asterisk by

109
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 2: some teams here. So, Dylan, what does the asterisk mean

110
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 2: when Vegas will put an asterisk by Golden State, Philly,

111
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 2: Cleveland and Miami.

112
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 4: I actually put the asterisk there just so highlight which

113
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 4: Lebron's top four.

114
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 3: Potential landing spots.

115
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 2: I should have asked you that question before I embarrassed myself.

116
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 2: Does Vegas put an asterisk up there? So that's just

117
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 2: to say this is where they are now the odds.

118
00:05:59,920 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 2: You have those odds with you, of I saw where

119
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 2: Golden State, where they are on this list, Miami, Philadelphia, Cleveland.

120
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 2: But the two top favorites are still San Antonio and

121
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 2: ok see, yeah.

122
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 4: They're Spurs and Thunder are tied at plus two seventy

123
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 4: and then of the Lebron landing spots, first up as

124
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 4: the Heat at eighteen to one, okay, then the Sixers

125
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 4: at twenty to one, Cavs at twenty five to one,

126
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 4: and then Warriors at thirty to one.

127
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:33,040
Speaker 2: The Knicks are the third favorite at plus eight fifty,

128
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 2: so it's overwhelming Spurs and Thunder. Then it goes to

129
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 2: the Knicks, then the Celtics, so you lose Jalen Brown,

130
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 2: you still have the fourth best odds. You do a

131
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:49,279
Speaker 2: salary dump with Jalen Brown and Miami right now plus

132
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 2: eighteen hundred and so eighteen to one, Sixers at twenty

133
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 2: to one. I still think if the Sixers get Lebron,

134
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 2: I'd put them up there with the Knicks, maybe even higher.

135
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 2: Vincent Goodwill covers the NBA for the mothership, He'll join

136
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 2: us next hour. A lot of times when you have

137
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 2: a champion, there is a let's try to follow their

138
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 2: blueprint for what they did for success. Now it happens

139
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 2: maybe more in football where you go there's a new style,

140
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 2: Like with the Knicks, can you ask your star player

141
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 2: to take one hundred million dollars less?

142
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 3: That doesn't happen?

143
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 2: And can you get all the guys you played college

144
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 2: basketball with to join you in the NBA and that

145
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 2: they can actually contribute on a high level. So that's

146
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 2: not something you can go, you know what, here's our blueprint.

147
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 2: But I do think that you can't be top heavy,

148
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 2: and I think this is the pattern I see. They

149
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 2: had two guys that were taking up a majority of

150
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 2: their payroll in Boston, and as a result, that's where

151
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 2: you have to look and go, we can't continue to

152
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 2: do this. We need to spread the wealth. Maybe the

153
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 2: NIXT showing you got to have a bench, you got

154
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 2: to be deep, and you can't have that one guy

155
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 2: making or two guys who were going to you know, come,

156
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 2: you know, be responsible for what seventy percent of your payroll.

157
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 2: And I think that's what happened in Boston. You know.

158
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 2: Lebron says that this isn't really going to be about money,

159
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 2: and you don't have to trade any assets. So that's

160
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 2: where this is really going to be impactful. When players

161
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 2: have been traded before, you're like, what's this going to

162
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 2: do to your team that you gave up all of

163
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 2: these draft picks or players, you know, like Miami, Like

164
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 2: you gave up Tyler Hero he's a good player, and

165
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,680
Speaker 2: you gave up draft picks as well. Like you're all

166
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 2: in for the next two or three years? And is

167
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 2: Lebron looking at this as a two year situation? I

168
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 2: keep thinking it's one, one and done. But the more

169
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 2: I think about this, it might be one in an option,

170
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 2: it might be two years where he goes, hey, if

171
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 2: I'm going to Miami, let's give this two years. If

172
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 2: I go back to Cleveland, Golden State. Let me give

173
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 2: us a chance. And he's still putting up good numbers,

174
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 2: and people forget where he was when Austin Reeves and

175
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 2: Luca got hurt. They leaned on Lebron down the stretch.

176
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 2: And I think that's kind of important too. If I'm

177
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 2: a GM or an owner, I'm going to bring him in.

178
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,199
Speaker 2: I'm going to encourage him to look at this as

179
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 2: a two year deal. Let's see what it's going to

180
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:32,080
Speaker 2: look like first year, add some elements, and then you

181
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:35,199
Speaker 2: have your final rollout as you go for a championship.

182
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, Pauli, I was really curious about how Giannis looks

183
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 6: at this because he has to be informed or updated

184
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,679
Speaker 6: about the pursuit of Lebron. And I'll bet you three

185
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:45,960
Speaker 6: or four years ago he may have said, no, I

186
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 6: don't want to share, you know, I want more role

187
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 6: players around me. But it's been five years since his title.

188
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 6: I didn't realize it was that long. He may be

189
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 6: at the point of his career. Let's try something new.

190
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 6: Let's share the stage a little bit.

191
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,280
Speaker 2: Well, he's already sharing the stage with a guy who

192
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 2: scored eighty three points in a game.

193
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 3: You're already sharing this now. I know it sounds strange.

194
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 2: It's like when Lebron went to Miami and they said, well,

195
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 2: this is Dwayne Wade's team.

196
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 3: No, it wasn't.

197
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 2: Dwayne Wade was smart enough to let Lebron know, Hey,

198
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 2: if you want this to be your team, go ahead.

199
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 3: Bam out of Byo knows it should be his team.

200
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 2: But you're bringing in Yannis, and he's probably wise to

201
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 2: acquiesce to Yannis. But you need help. I don't care

202
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 2: how good you are. Joker is the best player in

203
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 2: the game. It doesn't matter if you don't have Jamal

204
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 2: Murray being consistent, Aaron Gordon being consistent, Like you gotta

205
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 2: have that other person or people like the Knicks prooved yes, Marvin.

206
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 7: Yeah.

207
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 8: When it comes to like Bam out of Bayou and Yiannis,

208
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 8: this might be Jani's team, but it's BAM's franchise if

209
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 8: that makes sense, Like, you know what, I'm the homegrown

210
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 8: guy almost like a d Wait, you know what, you

211
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 8: have to be the best player on his team, But

212
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 8: I could still be that franchise guy that's gonna be here,

213
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 8: you know, throughout the duration.

214
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, because Bam is probably gonna be there longer. Than

215
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 2: Yannis is going to be there. This is where you're

216
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 2: coming through. And you got a HouseGuest coming for the

217
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,080
Speaker 2: next couple of years, and you say, hey, you know what,

218
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 2: sleep in my bedroom. You know, I'll give you the

219
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 2: master bedroom. You know, don't worry about it. We're gonna

220
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 2: I want you to be comfortable here, Come on in.

221
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 2: Because if Yanna succeeds, then Bam succeeds. It's just like

222
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:34,439
Speaker 2: Dwayne Wade. If Lebron succeeds, Dwayne Wade succeeds as well.

223
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:39,839
Speaker 2: What's poll question for the first hour of the program, Dylan, Well.

224
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 4: We got one from Todd again, who's been on fire?

225
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:42,680
Speaker 3: Uh?

226
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 4: Do you believe the heats Lebron posts was just preparation

227
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 4: for the possibility signs with them.

228
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:48,560
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I do.

229
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,319
Speaker 4: Or of course not dot dot dot they messed up

230
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 4: dot dot dot Lebron's back on South Beach.

231
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 2: I well, it's a mistake. Somebody made a mistake. Do

232
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 2: the Miami Heat No, I'm going to say they do not.

233
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 2: But does the rest of the NBA have an idea

234
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 2: of when this is going to happen? Did he let

235
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 2: all four know or his agent let all four teams

236
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 2: know this is when we hope to make this announcement.

237
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 3: I would lean towards that.

238
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 2: I think that somebody in the Miami Heat social media

239
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,320
Speaker 2: department just made a mistake, yes, Dylan.

240
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 4: I mean, is it like one hundred percent that it

241
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 4: was a mistake or you know, I don't really know

242
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,560
Speaker 4: what the incentive would be to have like an accidental leak,

243
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,600
Speaker 4: but I mean this stuff does happen for, you know,

244
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,080
Speaker 4: sometimes a reason unbeknown.

245
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,960
Speaker 2: To I don't think you want to jump ahead and

246
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 2: not allow Lebron to make the decision.

247
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 4: Again.

248
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:51,680
Speaker 2: I can't imagine that somebody didn't look at this in

249
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 2: the Miami Heat organization and say, wait a minute before

250
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 2: you post anything. It's got to go through this person

251
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 2: and this person. This person. It can't be some twenty

252
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 2: four year old who goes, yeah, hey, I posted something

253
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 2: to know what. No, I don't think that's possible. I

254
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 2: think somebody made a mistake because this has to go

255
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 2: through channels like this is big. I mean, this is

256
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 2: at the end of Lebron's career and he's not limping

257
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 2: towards the finish line. He's going to go to a

258
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 2: team that might be the team to beat in the

259
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 2: Eastern Conference.

260
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 3: Yes, Todd, perhaps teams.

261
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,199
Speaker 5: League's companies should have it so it's not so easy

262
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 5: to make that mistake. Like Poy was saying, it could

263
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 5: be simple as hitting the wrong button. Maybe it's one

264
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:37,440
Speaker 5: of those that you should go. You know that you're

265
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 5: sure you want to delete this message, whether you where

266
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:41,200
Speaker 5: you have to hit two or three things for it

267
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,320
Speaker 5: to really go through. We have an opportunity maybe to

268
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 5: catch yourself or someone catches the mistake. That would have

269
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:49,680
Speaker 5: been helpful. Yet, for something that big, shouldn't be that

270
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:51,959
Speaker 5: easy if I hit one button and this whole thing happens.

271
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 2: Nobody has better hindsight than you do. Like you're twenty ten,

272
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:58,839
Speaker 2: twenty fifteen, you're not sure or you want to send

273
00:13:58,840 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 2: this message?

274
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, thank you Todd, Yes, Todd, leave the league and

275
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 6: advice after the bag.

276
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,440
Speaker 3: God, they should have done this. Yeah well yeah, yeah,

277
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 3: what I have a.

278
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 5: Quest if you're a Lebron, if you're Lebron or Lebron's

279
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 5: camp or Rich Paul, are you furious or you understand?

280
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 3: What do you think? What do you think?

281
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 7: I think they're pretty pissed off.

282
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, thank you Todd. I don't think they

283
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 3: could be happy about it.

284
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,880
Speaker 6: Yes, I do an actual question about rich Paul and

285
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 6: his role with Lebron.

286
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 2: How about we save it? Okay, we'll take a break.

287

00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 7: I said, lazy, uninspired.

313
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 3: Oh, yes, uninspired.

314
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 2: But you know what, you can tell a lot about

315
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 2: pizzeria by just the cheese pizza. Yes.

316
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 3: Yeah.

317
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:03,160
Speaker 4: Like people want recommendations for some of the New Haven

318
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 4: pizza spots, I usually say, like, get whatever, but also

319
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 4: get just like the plain old cheese or the tomato

320
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 4: pie which is underd Absolutely.

321
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 2: Absolutely. So that's the pizza Wednesday. Who is it better

322
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 2: than we do? Nobody's Out of the day brought to

323
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 2: you by Penni America, the official trading cards of the

324
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 2: Dan Patrick Show. Sunday Night Baseball and NBC and Peacock,

325
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 2: the Yankees and the Phillies. It's an inter league battle

326
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 2: and it's in Philadelphia, NBC Peacock's Sunday Night. You can

327
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 2: also watch this show on Peacock. Download the app if

328
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 2: you haven't done so. Today. The SEC does a lot

329
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 2: of great things. They know how to put on a

330
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 2: press conference or the SEC Media Days I still think

331
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 2: they should do the real Housewives of the SEC, like

332
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 2: just let's just embrace it. There's always storylines you could have,

333
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 2: you know, wags, coaches wags, and I think it would

334
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 2: be great. Lane Kiffin is going to have his day

335
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 2: today SEC Media Day. I don't know what to expect

336
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:08,919
Speaker 2: from Lane, but that's the beauty of Lane Kiffin.

337
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:10,399
Speaker 3: You're never quite sure.

338
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,360
Speaker 2: I'm sure that he'll dump on old Miss maybe one

339
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 2: more time, maybe accidentally, and then talk about his chances

340
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 2: at LSU. But SEC Media Day and Greg sank who

341
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 2: is a frequent guest on this show, the SEC Commissioner,

342
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:32,320
Speaker 2: was asked, Okay, here's the question, how real are the

343
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 2: conversations within the SEC about potentially breaking away from the

344
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 2: college structure and it being used as leverage in the

345
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 2: conversations you're having with Congress about the bill.

346
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,679
Speaker 3: Here is Greg SANKI, so you.

347
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,520
Speaker 9: Phrased the question of how real, So I'll take that

348
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 9: as like real or not real?

349
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 3: So they're real. People have talked.

350
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 10: About that, they've opined about.

351
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 9: The frustrations that to bring them to the point of

352
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 9: saying we should look at something significantly different. I do

353
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:09,440
Speaker 9: not believe that is a leverage point. I think that's

354
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:13,199
Speaker 9: just honest communication. I would prefer that stay in a

355
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 9: meeting room or on a video conference and not be

356
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 9: part of the D one ticker the next morning. But

357
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 9: I don't control all of that, Anie. What I think

358
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:29,879
Speaker 9: is important is those comments represent a high level of

359
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:33,359
Speaker 9: frustration with the circumstance in which we find ourselves.

360
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 2: Okay, I don't know what the follow up was after that,

361
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:37,920
Speaker 2: but I would certainly have a follow up to say,

362
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:43,120
Speaker 2: what are those frustrations here? This is a conference that's

363
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 2: built its reputation on proving it's the best in the country.

364
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 2: Stepping away from the rest of college football sends a

365
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 2: week message. You know, this is the bully who dominated

366
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 2: until somebody punched him in the news. You've had three

367
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,160
Speaker 2: years where you have any and been in the national

368
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:04,879
Speaker 2: title game, let alone win a national title sec nothing

369
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,560
Speaker 2: to prove historically, But if you still want to be

370
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 2: the bully on the block, then you need to find

371
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 2: different ways to keep your recruits or don't lose these

372
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,959
Speaker 2: big names to other schools. And I'm going to look

373
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:22,360
Speaker 2: at the recruiting this year twenty twenty six recruiting class.

374
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 2: Five of the top seven classes are teams outside the

375
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:36,200
Speaker 2: SEC that doesn't normally happen USC, Oregon, Ohio State, Notre

376
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 2: Dame in Miami, the two SEC schools, Alabama and Tennessee.

377
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 2: Now Alabama needed to step up their game because I

378
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,879
Speaker 2: think that's where Nick Saban saw this. He knew what

379
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,480
Speaker 2: was happening, and he knew he didn't have the resources.

380
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:57,639
Speaker 2: You had the players, and before nil and transfer you

381
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 2: were able to get those players. You're the same way.

382
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 2: It's different now Now these schools think if I'm a booster,

383
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 2: a big time booster, and I go Indiana won a

384
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:15,119
Speaker 2: national championship. Here's twenty million dollars. And these are the

385
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 2: guys that can't be an owner in an NFL. This

386
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,280
Speaker 2: is your chance to be an owner ish of a

387
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 2: football team.

388
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 3: I'm going to be the guy. I'm the benefactor. I'm

389
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:29,239
Speaker 3: going to help you.

390
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:33,119
Speaker 2: And it feels like you have more and more schools

391
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,919
Speaker 2: who are doing this or at least entertaining the idea

392
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 2: that why not US Indiana did it? Why not US Michigan,

393
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 2: Ohio State. We understand that, but you know you've got

394
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 2: payrolls of forty million dollars. Now this is a nothing.

395
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 2: I don't know how sustainable it is. Even basketball, We're

396
00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:03,359
Speaker 2: spending twenty million dollars and I don't know when it

397
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 2: stops because the money is going to continue to increase.

398
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,879
Speaker 2: How much money you're going to spend a couple of

399
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 2: things that I would love to talk to Greg Sank

400
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 2: and some of the other commissioners about is let's say

401
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 2: we limit the number of times you can transfer. You

402
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 2: can do it. You can transfer once, no penalty whatsoever.

403
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 2: The next time you have to sit out a year

404
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:34,400
Speaker 2: now that is being proposed. If the kids are going

405
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:38,719
Speaker 2: to make money, how much money? I don't want it capped.

406
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 2: I don't think that's fair. We don't cap a coach's salary.

407
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 2: These guys are the ones that are out on the

408
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:49,480
Speaker 2: football field. But I do think that we have to

409
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 2: have some kind of guardrails here because right now we don't.

410
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 2: And I think where we're headed is what concerns me. Now.

411
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:00,200
Speaker 2: Do I think we're eventually going to get to the

412
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 2: have and have nots? Yes, I do, particularly with football,

413
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:08,399
Speaker 2: where we're going to have maybe forty schools, maybe thirty,

414
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 2: and that thirty will be a model of the Premier

415
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 2: League or be a model of the NFL. And you're

416
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 2: just going to say this is the money that you

417
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 2: have to play with and transfer you can do one transfer.

418
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 2: I mean, you got kids who are transferring three and

419
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:29,119
Speaker 2: four times. And I think if we're going to and

420
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:33,680
Speaker 2: I know I sound like an old man and I am,

421
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,640
Speaker 2: you still got to think about the college education part

422
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:36,920
Speaker 2: of this.

423
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:39,959
Speaker 3: It is still college. Okay.

424
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 2: I know Chancellor's president's athletic directors sometimes don't act that.

425
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 3: Way, but you still maybe it's just an illusion.

426
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,680
Speaker 2: Give me the idea that college still matters and education

427
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 2: still matters. And as I've said many times, when tell

428
00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 2: me the next time some but he is academically ineligible

429
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 2: during a football season.

430
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:09,440
Speaker 3: Done happened because I don't think anybody cares. Hey, you're

431
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,639
Speaker 3: just passing through and we're using you as you passed through.

432
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,919
Speaker 3: That's not what college is all about. But if you

433
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 3: want to try to have guardrails, great, good luck with that.

434
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:22,719
Speaker 3: But the SEC is saying we're going to take our

435
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 3: ball and go home. That's not an answer. And I

436
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,920
Speaker 3: understand what Greg Sanchie is saying, Hey, has it been discussed? Yes?

437
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:34,360
Speaker 2: Would I prefer it stayed discussed in closed doors, closed quarters.

438
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,480
Speaker 2: Now it gets out and it's like, oh cec wants

439
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 2: to secede, but he did talk about it, so he's

440
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,119
Speaker 2: on record as talking about him. But I look forward

441
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:48,720
Speaker 2: to whatever Lane Kiffen has to say about his new

442
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 2: job at LSU and that old job at Old Miss.

443
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:53,160
Speaker 3: Yes poem about a month ago.

444
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 6: Senator Tubberville Tommy Tubberville, the former Aarron head coach. He

445
00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:00,159
Speaker 6: proposed a Student Athlete Act of twenty twenty six, and

446
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 6: a lot of it is what you just said. You

447
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:05,640
Speaker 6: will have five years to compete and graduate in college football.

448
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 6: You'll have one free transfer. He doesn't want twenty five

449
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 6: year olds playing in the sport. And I think he's

450
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:12,280
Speaker 6: going to get a lot of support for that as

451
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 6: a concept.

452
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 2: Well he will, because who's going to be against this.

453
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,520
Speaker 2: The players and the agents.

454
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 3: That's it.

455
00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 2: Coaches are going to be like, yes, finally I get

456
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 2: to control my program here, Athletic directors, fans you're going

457
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,440
Speaker 2: to be like, yeah, you can't transfer, you got to

458
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,879
Speaker 2: stay here. But everybody, I think not everybody, but you

459
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 2: got a lot of these coaches who are allowed to

460
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 2: dream because Indiana won a national championship. Here is Will Stein,

461
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,160
Speaker 2: the Kentucky head coach.

462
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 11: Kentucky historically is fought against a narrative, against perception.

463
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 7: Why do you think you can win big here?

464
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,240
Speaker 11: This is going to sound like really I think because

465
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 11: of me. To be honest, I think as of me.

466
00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:58,879
Speaker 11: I think I know what it takes.

467
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:01,159
Speaker 7: At the highest levels.

468
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 11: I know what it takes to recruit at this level.

469
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:06,640
Speaker 11: And you just got to believe. Man, you just got

470
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 11: to put the ball down and play. There's not really

471
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,439
Speaker 11: else to be said. Is it going to happen overnight?

472
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:12,159
Speaker 7: I don't know.

473
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 3: Go ahead, you know what do you got to lose?

474
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,720
Speaker 3: Somebody's gonna come back and say, and you thought Kentucky

475
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 3: could compete?

476
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 2: Well, were you thinking? Do I want to play for

477
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 2: a coach who thinks that way or one who goes, ah,

478
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 2: let's be realistic here. We're a basketball school. We're not

479
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 2: very good at football.

480
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,680
Speaker 3: I want somebody who's going to at least dream, because

481
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,639
Speaker 3: if he ain't dreaming, I'm not dreaming. Yeah, Pauline, I

482
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 3: love it.

483
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:43,680
Speaker 6: Will Stein is channeling Kurt Signetti two years ago when

484
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:46,719
Speaker 6: he was interested at Indiana. He said, it's pretty simple.

485
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,359
Speaker 6: I win google me. That was his line, and he

486
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:52,920
Speaker 6: caught heat for that. That day, But if you googled him,

487
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 6: he does win.

488
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 3: So when somebody says Indiana won the national championship, Kurt

489
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 3: Signetti and Indiana won the national championship because he brought

490
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:08,120
Speaker 3: players from James Madison already indoctrinated into his system.

491
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,720
Speaker 2: That helped him get a head start. He's bringing in

492
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 2: proven players, quality players. They hit the ground running, and

493
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:19,359
Speaker 2: then they got their quarterback in Fernando Mendoza.

494
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 3: Anybody could have gotten him. He played a col Yes, Ton.

495
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 7: But that's sound.

496
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:26,200
Speaker 5: I can really come back and haunt you though. Whatever

497
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:28,199
Speaker 5: a little positive you can get for Like I told you, so,

498
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,880
Speaker 5: if the team does well, it's that much worse. If

499
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:32,000
Speaker 5: things do not go.

500
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:35,400
Speaker 3: Well, well, how worse could he get? People make fun

501
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,040
Speaker 3: of Kentucky football to begin with, So what they're going

502
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:41,159
Speaker 3: to pile on and say, you won four games and

503
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 3: you thought you can compete? Yes? Yes, And I still

504
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:48,920
Speaker 3: think we can compete, yes, Martin, Yeah.

505
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 8: And think about Kentucky football. They don't have to win

506
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,640
Speaker 8: the national championship. If they can win nine or ten

507
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:57,200
Speaker 8: games consistently, there's a lifetime contract down there.

508
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,640
Speaker 2: We don't win the Sports Emmy, but I still think

509
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 2: we're the best show on TV. Somebody might say, oh,

510
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:10,199
Speaker 2: come on, yeah, I believe in who we are and

511
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,720
Speaker 2: what we do. We don't win.

512
00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:17,879
Speaker 4: Yes, Dylan Willstein did play at Louisville, though, which so

513
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,360
Speaker 4: kind of a turncoat move to be coaching.

514
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 2: Kentucky right now, I think that's long gone. Yeah, yeah

515
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 2: with Patino Kentucky and Louisville. Yes, Pauling.

516
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,920
Speaker 6: Kentucky football has two ten win seasons in the past

517
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 6: fifty years. Okay, both in the past ten years under

518
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 6: Mark Stoops.

519
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 5: All right, yes, Tod, but you don't refer to the

520
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,040
Speaker 5: Sports Emmy as you refer to as a group effort.

521
00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,240
Speaker 7: I've never heard you say and if we win the Sports.

522
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,080
Speaker 5: Emmy, it's because of me. What a great interview or

523
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 5: and host. I am, well, that's kind of what the

524
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 5: Kentucky guy is saying.

525
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 3: Well, no, that would be true. I just don't say.

526
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 5: Which I appreciate you reverbalize that. You can think what

527
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:52,439
Speaker 5: you're want, but it doesn't come out off very well.

528
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:53,320
Speaker 5: You'd say about.

529
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 3: Out, Thank you, Todd, thank you. Poll question for from

530
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:01,440
Speaker 3: our one and what about hour two? Doing well Dan

531
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 3: post twenty twenty six World Cup. I'm much more of

532
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 3: a soccer fan a bit more interested or feeling the same.

533
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 3: Sixty three percent are feeling exactly the same. Okay, I'm

534
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 3: not surprised because I liken it to the Olympics. We

535
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:19,919
Speaker 3: love the Olympics. We don't follow Olympics sports when the

536
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:24,640
Speaker 3: Olympics aren't happening. I don't know if anybody's watching judo,

537
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 3: jiu jitsu, track and field.

538
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 2: I think we're just fascinated because it's on, it's presented

539
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 2: so well, there's always great stories, the timing of it.

540
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 2: They're in beautiful places, beautiful pictures. That's that's what we do.

541
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 2: But I mean, am I more of a soccer fan

542
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 2: after the World Cup?

543
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 3: No?

544
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 2: Am I more of a soccer fan in the last

545
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 2: five years? Absolutely? Absolutely, and so much so that when

546
00:28:57,840 --> 00:28:59,959
Speaker 2: I retire, I hope to go to a couple of

547
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 2: matches at the Premier League and maybe do something in

548
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 2: Barcelona or Madrid or I mean, I'm I'm I love

549
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 2: the atmosphere. I think you get caught up in anything

550
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 2: when you have atmosphere. I mean, this was college football,

551
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 2: but it even it meant even more than college football does. Yes, Dylan,

552
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 2: why do you have to wait for retirement? Why don't

553
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 2: we do a squad Premier Leage. I mean Barcelona trip

554
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 2: would be great. Okay, why you financed it? You let

555
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:32,600
Speaker 2: me know. I'll be happy to go.

556
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 4: Oh that wasn't part of the deal.

557
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, why don't you? Why don't you? Why didn't

558
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 3: you hit a few bets for James in the wrong direction? Yes, yeah,

559
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 3: that's true. Like I we lose money with you?

560
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah, all right.

561
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,120
Speaker 2: Vincent Goodwill Junior, the third on loan for the Mothership,

562
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 2: will join us. Just an accident with the Miami Heat

563
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 2: social media putting out that date? Was it July twenty seventh?

564
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 2: And I went, oh, maybe they made a mistake of

565
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:05,280
Speaker 2: putting it out. But did they made a mistake with

566
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,120
Speaker 2: the July twenty seventh? That's what I took away from

567
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 2: that social media post that was quickly taken down.

568
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:12,680
Speaker 3: We'll take a break.

569
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,719
Speaker 2: More phone calls as well, and the storylines from NFL

570
00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 2: training camps.

571
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:19,240
Speaker 3: We'll have that for you as well.

572
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 1: Back after this, be sure to catch the live edition

576
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 3: of mine who go, Okay, I got this idea, and

577
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 3: then they'll tell me the idea and then I'll go

578
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 3: uh no, no.

579
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,120
Speaker 2: Benson Goodwill has been at a cookout when Bobby called

580
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 2: Well's playing probably dancing slow dancing to the Yeah, okay, right.

581
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 10: The contrary to the belief all black people can't dance,

582
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:10,240
Speaker 10: you can't dance. I got rhythm. I can't dance. That's

583
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:14,160
Speaker 10: the difference. I can move, but my feet don't exactly

584
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 10: match up the way that they need to match up. Yes, yes, Marvin,

585
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 10: so Vinnie, are you a master of the two step?

586
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 10: I stay in the box, like just like on Hitch,

587
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 10: you stay in the box, you don't get outside the box.

588
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 2: I respect that because I don't know if I have rhythm,

589
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 2: and I can't dance either.

590
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 10: So I have rhythm and we do love Bobby Callwell

591
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:42,800
Speaker 10: at the at the cookout, Yeah we do. We play

594
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 10: would think it was about the singing it.

595
00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 2: Okay, give me another band that I would be like

596
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 2: a white band or white artist, that I might be

597
00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:58,760
Speaker 2: surprised gets played at the cookout.

598
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 10: Ah Uh, that's an interesting one. I was gonna say

599
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 10: Mariah Carey.

600
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 7: But she's one of art.

601
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 2: Yes, is that official Ria carry if there was a drift,

Speaker 3: Okay, one drop rule, Yes, Marvin.

605
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:26,080
Speaker 8: I was gonna say Toto specifically Georgie Porgy that.

606
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 12: That would definitely work too. Yeah, that's on the list. Yeah,

607
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:33,959
Speaker 12: but you can't do Africa. Heck no, especially that that

608

00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 10: with John Allen, Steve.

612
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 3: What about that Rick Ashley?

613
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 10: Ah, that is kind of one of those depends on

614
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 10: what type of cookout, if it's a mixed cookout.

615
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 2: Okay, because and if you're not familiar with Rick Ashley,

616
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 2: he sounds like this.

617
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 7: It would take a strong strong man to ever let

618
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:08,960
Speaker 7: you go.

619
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:14,000

Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, I'm good with Mike. All right.

621
00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:20,560
Speaker 2: So Vincent goodwill espn NBA Senior Writer. You can see

622
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 2: him on NBA today and get up and he's working

623
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 2: all this week as we wait, we wait for Lebron.

624
00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:29,680
Speaker 3: What did the Miami Heat do yesterday?

625
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 10: Well, the queen first off, the queen of playing of

626
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 10: the cookout, Tina Marie. All Right, that's where we're gonna

627
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,120
Speaker 10: start and that's where it finishes up. But as far

628
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,760
Speaker 10: as what the Miami Heat did yesterday, they did what

629
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,520
Speaker 10: we used to do a newspapers, Dan. We would have

630
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:50,600
Speaker 10: obituaries plan for people who were still alive. And imagine

631
00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 10: being like a twenty two year old and you stumble

632
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:56,160
Speaker 10: upon a file of you know, people like Ernie Harwell

633
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 10: being dead and Ernie Harwell is still alive and stuff

634
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 10: like that, You're like, who are are we killing here?

635
00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:04,240
Speaker 10: I think that's what the Miami Heat did. And I

636
00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:08,279
Speaker 10: guarantee you, if the Miami Heat knew that Lebron was

637
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,799
Speaker 10: coming and they had a press conference plan for July

638
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:14,160
Speaker 10: twenty seventh, the person who knew would not be their

639
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 10: social media person because I guarantee you they'd be leaking

640
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,400
Speaker 10: it to force some money to like TMZ or something

641
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:24,480
Speaker 10: like that. So I just think it was in preparation

642
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:28,040
Speaker 10: of something happening, because none of us really know.

643
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:32,479
Speaker 2: And look, I respect you when Fritzy reaches out and says,

644
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 2: you know, anything you want to come on, you go,

645
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:37,400
Speaker 2: I don't have anything for you. But I also wonder

646
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:43,040
Speaker 2: about this though, Vinny, July twenty seventh, that's what stood

647
00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:46,280
Speaker 2: out that it was the date, not you know, maybe

648
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 2: the procedure or the mistake that Miami. I don't know,

649
00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,600
Speaker 2: if these teams are told July twenty seventh is when

650
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:58,040
Speaker 2: Rich Paul says that will make our decision. So I

651
00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:00,400
Speaker 2: don't know if that's just random, but that's where stood

652
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 2: down for me with this.

653
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 10: I mean, look, give it to Lebron to keep building

654
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:10,040
Speaker 10: suspense throughout this NBA offseason. The fact that a lot

655
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:12,359
Speaker 10: of people can't go on vacation. So if there's an

656
00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:14,799
Speaker 10: end to this, even if it's just an end date,

657
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,839
Speaker 10: if July twenty seventh is the end date, then that

658
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,040
Speaker 10: means executives can go on vacation, you know, people like

659
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:24,120
Speaker 10: us can start stepping away a little bit and paying

660
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,120
Speaker 10: attention to other things. So yeah, I wouldn't be surprised

661
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 10: if you told me he pulled a Brett Farr and

662
00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 10: just showed up at training camp on September twenty sixth,

663
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:36,560
Speaker 10: after Media Day or whatever, it was with the team

664
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:38,160
Speaker 10: he was going to show up with. I want to

665
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:39,160
Speaker 10: be surprised with that either.

666
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:44,800
Speaker 2: Why does Rich Paul do interviews? He doesn't really say anything,

667
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,280
Speaker 2: but like, what's the purpose of Rich Paul, Lebron's agent,

668
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:49,400
Speaker 2: going on McAfee.

669
00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:52,759
Speaker 10: I mean, Rich Paul has his own podcast with Max

670
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,399
Speaker 10: Kellerman they're doing. I saw some screenshot a few minutes

671
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:58,839
Speaker 10: ago them and Bill Simmons together. I think it's all

672
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 10: about everything and everybody becoming a brand. And once again,

673
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:06,799
Speaker 10: if Lebron is not going to say anything, then Rich

674
00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:11,680
Speaker 10: Paul basically having the whiteboard behind him of teams and

675
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 10: they're pros and cons. It's a brilliant marketing strategy from

676
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 10: someone that we know loves the attention. If there's one

677
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,720
Speaker 10: thing that we know about Lebron James. You can debate

678
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:24,520
Speaker 10: him as one of the best players of all time

679
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:27,280
Speaker 10: or whatever it is, but we all know for sure

680
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 10: that he loves the attention. Rich Paul, they all love

681
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:34,880
Speaker 10: the attention. These guys are all celebrities, and the number

682
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:38,799
Speaker 10: one currency in today's culture is attention, not money, not

683
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,640
Speaker 10: anything else. Attention is the number one thing.

684
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:42,040
Speaker 3: We're talking to.

685
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:45,799
Speaker 2: Vincent Goodwill, ESPN NBA senior writer. You can see him

686
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 2: on NBA today on next week at three eastern. If

687
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 2: you're the Cavaliers and you have James Harden, Like I'm

688
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 2: looking at Lebron looking at the Cleveland Cavaliers, why do

689
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,920
Speaker 2: I want to go to the Cleveland Cavaliers if they

690
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:01,800
Speaker 2: have James Harden.

691
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 10: That's a question for Lebron James because I don't get

692
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,960
Speaker 10: that one either, Like he closed that book to me

693
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 10: in twenty sixteen, if there was anything that he needed

694
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:15,719
Speaker 10: to make amends for and everything else he did that

695
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:18,360
Speaker 10: that three to one comeback winning the championship for that

696
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:22,279
Speaker 10: Cleveland market. When I look at this team now, Dan,

697
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 10: what they need number one, I don't look at and say, man,

698
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:28,480
Speaker 10: you know what, Lebron James makes that team tougher. Lebron

699
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:31,360
Speaker 10: James makes that team not be the team that folds

700
00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:33,839
Speaker 10: like they did against the New York Knicks. Not saying

701
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 10: Lebron doesn't make them better, but it's saying that what

702
00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:41,200
Speaker 10: they need is toughness, and how can you figure that out?

703
00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:46,319
Speaker 10: With Evan Mobley with y excuse me, Donovan Mitchell, excuse me,

704
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,720
Speaker 10: and James Harwa's combined the names like all those guys

705
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:51,760
Speaker 10: need the ball, and then Lebron goes there. That becomes

706
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 10: Lebron's team at forty two years old, that becomes his team.

707
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,760
Speaker 10: I don't know from a basketball since how it works.

708
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 10: I would say you welcome him with open arms. But

709
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:05,800
Speaker 10: when you look at that team last year, barely getting

710
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:07,719
Speaker 10: out of the first round, barely getting out of the

711
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:10,800
Speaker 10: second round, getting their doors blown off in the conference finals,

712
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 10: I don't see how they're at Lebron James away from

713
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:14,480
Speaker 10: taking that next step.

714
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:18,000
Speaker 2: Okay, and people probably don't spend enough time doing this,

715
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:21,839
Speaker 2: but I will give me the best basketball fit, like

716
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:26,000
Speaker 2: just style spacing in Lebron's role.

717
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:29,879
Speaker 10: I've been saying it from day one, and I don't

718
00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:34,279
Speaker 10: have any inside inside the Miami Heat. The Miami Heat

719
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:37,800
Speaker 10: have the infrastructure, the Miami Heat have the high level

720
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:41,480
Speaker 10: defensive players and Giannison bam Adebayo. The one thing you

721
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:44,040
Speaker 10: don't want Lebron to have to do at his age

722
00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:46,719
Speaker 10: is to play a whole lot of defense. One thing

723
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:48,880
Speaker 10: he didn't do last year in LA was play a

724
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:50,800
Speaker 10: whole lot of defense. He led the league in fast

725
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 10: break points, and it wasn't because he was brinding it

726
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 10: out at the rim, taking it off the glass. He

727
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 10: was putting himself in position to be in transition. And

728
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,320
Speaker 10: also so the one thing you can give Lebron James

729
00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 10: from a player development standpoint, He's become a much better

730
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:08,880
Speaker 10: stand still shooter if Donnas is gathering gought his attention

731
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:12,759
Speaker 10: on the offensive end, and Lebron can also orchestrate and

732
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:16,239
Speaker 10: stand still shoot and be protected on defense and have

733
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 10: the best coach of the three teams that he's considering,

734
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:23,200
Speaker 10: that's Eric Sposter, That's the Miami Heat, that's that Heat.

735
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 3: Market the New York Knicks. By winning the championship.

736
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,880
Speaker 2: I know we have certain sports where it's a copycat

737
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,400
Speaker 2: league where you go, oh, we want to be like

738
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:37,760
Speaker 2: the Saint Louis Rams greatest show on turf. We're gonna

739
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:40,840
Speaker 2: we want to have three point shooters like Golden State,

740
00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 2: you know the Knicks. Okay, can you get your star

741
00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:46,120
Speaker 2: player to take one hundred million dollars less? Can you

742
00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:50,440
Speaker 2: get his college teammates to join you like you can't?

743
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 2: That's a blueprint that nobody else is able to subscribe to.

744
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:58,280
Speaker 2: But the part of it is how do I spread

745
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:01,279
Speaker 2: the money? You saw what Boston Jalen Brown was his

746
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 2: salary dump, and Brad Stevens is going, I can't have

747
00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 2: two guys take up seventy percent of my salary cap.

748
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:12,080
Speaker 2: What can teams do to try to emulate what they

749
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:13,719
Speaker 2: saw with the New York Knicks.

750
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:18,399
Speaker 10: I'll say this for one, Talk all that stuff about

751
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:21,759
Speaker 10: Jalen Brunson taking one hundred million dollars pay cut next

752
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:24,520
Speaker 10: summer when he's eligible for three hundred million dollars, and

753
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:26,399
Speaker 10: ask him if he's taking a pay cut in because

754
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 10: he's getting every last penny of his money.

755
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:30,480
Speaker 3: Point two.

756
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:33,000
Speaker 10: The one thing that I can say about the Knicks

757
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,200
Speaker 10: and the people think that Bennie Haysen Knicks and all

758
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,160
Speaker 10: this stuff, Bennie does not. Benne actually admire the way

759
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 10: they built their team. And here's the one thing I

760
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:42,000
Speaker 10: will take from them. If I'm a team builder, you

761
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:45,719
Speaker 10: lean into your guy. There is no perfect superstar in

762
00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:49,000
Speaker 10: the NBA. Every superstar has a flaw. But what the

763
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:53,359
Speaker 10: Knicks did was lean into everything Jalen Brunson. We're going

764
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:55,400
Speaker 10: to get the best shooting big man on the market.

765
00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 10: We're going to clear out the locker room, so he's

766
00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,720
Speaker 10: our one defined leader in Carl and then Karl Anthony

767
00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:02,480
Speaker 10: Town is that of a guy, and then you get

768
00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:06,880
Speaker 10: the requisite wings around Jalen Brunson so that his defensive

769
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:10,759
Speaker 10: deficiencies are covered up in ogn Andob Josh Hart and

770
00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:13,960
Speaker 10: Michel Bridges. The thing is, if you're looking for the

771
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:17,160
Speaker 10: big superstar, the perfect guy to pop up, you'll never

772
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:19,839
Speaker 10: start building your team. But if you have your star

773
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 10: and you lean into him, I think that's the thing

774
00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:25,080
Speaker 10: to take from the Knicks because as we've seen the

775
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:28,040
Speaker 10: past eight years, we've had eight different champions that have

776
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 10: been built completely different ways. There is no one way

777
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:32,840
Speaker 10: to do it anymore.

778
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:37,200
Speaker 2: Are the Lakers better today than they were a month ago?

779
00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:44,399
Speaker 10: I think they are better in the way than that

780
00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:48,080
Speaker 10: they have a direction that when Lebron is there, you

781
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:51,960
Speaker 10: are in this holding pattern of how well is Lebron

782
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:55,440
Speaker 10: going to play at his age and his salary number.

783
00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:58,200
Speaker 10: Now you looking at it and saying, Luka Doncic, this

784
00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:01,000
Speaker 10: is your team, this is your franchise. Much of the

785
00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:04,640
Speaker 10: Jayalen Brunson point, we have to lean into everything with

786
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:08,440
Speaker 10: you get defenders, get wing guys, get a big and

787
00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:11,839
Speaker 10: Walker Kessler. They sacrificed a lot to go get them.

788
00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:14,640
Speaker 10: They have no more draft assets. They don't have any

789
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:18,440
Speaker 10: more money, significant money, so this better work. And I

790
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:21,160
Speaker 10: don't think that this team is anything more than perhaps

791
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,680
Speaker 10: a second round team, which they were this year with

792
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,960
Speaker 10: Lebron James. It may just not be their year at

793
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:28,759
Speaker 10: least until they get more resources.

794
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:29,080
Speaker 3: Yeah.

795
00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:29,600
Speaker 8: I like that.

796
00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:31,719
Speaker 3: At least they have a direction. I think that's the

797
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:32,560
Speaker 3: important part.

798
00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:36,279
Speaker 2: Are they better Probably not, because you know, Lebron still

799
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 2: played at a pretty high level. I like Walker Kessler.

800
00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:42,920
Speaker 2: I think he is is what Luca wants to play with.

801
00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:45,520
Speaker 2: You know, DeAndre Ayden is not going to be the

802
00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:48,920
Speaker 2: player that we probably think he should be. Walker Kessler

803
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,240
Speaker 2: is one of those Oh he's better than what I thought.

804
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:55,040
Speaker 2: And he's a guy who played both ends, you know,

805
00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 2: rebound defense. So I think that that will help Luca.

806
00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:02,200
Speaker 2: He won did that kind of guy, uh, you know,

807
00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:03,440
Speaker 2: at that position.

808
00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 10: And not just that. Look when they committed that much

809
00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:10,759
Speaker 10: money to Austin Reeves, who was maybe their third best

810
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:14,560
Speaker 10: player last year, behind Luca, behind Lebron James, You're going

811
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:18,160
Speaker 10: all in on these three guys being the core of

812
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:21,359
Speaker 10: your roster and trying to figure our stuff on on

813
00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:24,480
Speaker 10: you know, on the fringes, and they don't have a

814
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:26,920
Speaker 10: choice here, like when Luca fell into their lap, Like

815
00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:29,480
Speaker 10: that's the thing we don't we understand here. Luca was

816
00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:32,920
Speaker 10: not their plan. Luca fell into their lap. They didn't

817
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:36,200
Speaker 10: have a plan post Lebron James. They just happened to

818
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:38,719
Speaker 10: look into them and now they have to count What

819
00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:41,800
Speaker 10: do we do here? You better figure something out because honestly,

820
00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:44,040
Speaker 10: they have not done a bang up job short of

821
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 10: Knell and the draft pick here or there, they haven't

822
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:49,440
Speaker 10: impressed me with their team building, you know problems over

823
00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:50,279
Speaker 10: the past few years.

824
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:53,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's that's correct. You want to go

825
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:56,959
Speaker 2: in on the Lebron bet. You're not reporting, but which team,

826
00:43:57,040 --> 00:43:59,319
Speaker 2: which day? And how is it announced?

827
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:01,080
Speaker 7: That's a girl.

828
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:05,560
Speaker 10: I would think it will probably be announced on Instagram,

829
00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:07,759
Speaker 10: That's what I think. I think it'd be announced on

830
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:09,840
Speaker 10: Instagram because he's trying to you know, build up his

831
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:13,879
Speaker 10: you know, post playing career. I think it'll be Mina.

832
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 10: I think the best choice is Miami. I don't know

833
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:19,040
Speaker 10: if he's going to make the best basketball choice, and

834
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:21,279
Speaker 10: it's hard for me to place a bet. I don't

835
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:24,440
Speaker 10: I can't see it being Philly, but we could be

836
00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:26,240
Speaker 10: on here a week from now saying that it's Philly

837
00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:30,040
Speaker 10: and Vinnie looks like an idiot, like I have zero clue.

838
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:32,319
Speaker 10: I'm not willing to place a bet on any of

839
00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:34,480
Speaker 10: this day. Okay, I'm just sitting there. I'm just fascinated.

840
00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:34,799
Speaker 5: All right.

841
00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:38,040
Speaker 2: How about if the NBA could place Lebron, they would

842
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:39,000
Speaker 2: place him where.

843
00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:44,080
Speaker 10: They will probably place him. I would have to say

844
00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:47,280
Speaker 10: to say they placed him in Cleveland, right, But wouldn't

845
00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:50,600
Speaker 10: they place him in Miami even though you know some

846
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:53,360
Speaker 10: people have these these misgivings about the Miami Heat and

847
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:57,440
Speaker 10: everything else. I want to be in Miami in late May,

848
00:44:57,640 --> 00:44:58,520
Speaker 10: in early June.

849
00:44:58,840 --> 00:44:59,560
Speaker 3: Dan, this is.

850
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:02,520
Speaker 10: About me and what I want to where I want

851
00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:06,640
Speaker 10: to spend the Eastern Conference Finals. I'm not worried about

852
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:08,320
Speaker 10: the NBA.

853
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:13,240
Speaker 2: Thank you, Vincent, Appreciate you guys. That's Vincent Goodwill Junior

854
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:18,360
Speaker 2: the Third. You can see him on ESPN's NBA today. Yeah,

855
00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:20,560
Speaker 2: I would think the NBA would want to place him

856
00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:21,120
Speaker 2: in Miami
