Speaker 5: Some of these things that are happening in the NBA,

88
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 5: some of them I really like, rob Gie.

89
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 3: I like for this team. We discussed it a little

90
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 3: bit last hour.

91
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 5: Some moves, the Clin Coppella being a rim runner and

92
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 5: a block shot blocker for the Rockets, Kris Verg going

93
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 5: to the Pistons. You got a guy I like, uh

94
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 5: and Nika Alexander Walker.

95
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 4: East.

96
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 3: Now the East ain't never been as open.

97
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 5: You know that just this might be the one year

98
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 5: they might this one be, this might be the one

99
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 5: year they got a chance.

100
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 3: This is one where it's not crazy to say, because it's.

101
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 5: It's that thing is wide open. But yeah, break down

102
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 5: a few more of these I'm looking at I'm looking

103
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 5: at some some decent ones.

104
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 3: Bruce brown Back to the hel.

105
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,040
Speaker 6: I know you just mentioned that the big winners so

106
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 6: far the day are and not never to get order Denver.

107
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 6: They bring back Bruce Brown, and they get off the

108
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,719
Speaker 6: Michael Border junior contract. They bring in Cam Johnson, So

109
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 6: that championship winner that we were so worried about being

110
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 6: closed after this last playoff run suddenly looks wide open again.

111
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,480
Speaker 6: That's Nuber one. Number two Houston Rockets, you mentioned it.

112
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 6: They get Dorian Finney Smith from the Lakers. They also

113
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 6: get Clint Capella, and rumor has it they're going to

114
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 6: be in the mix for a couple of other guys

115
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 6: because they still have some flexibility both in terms of

116
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 6: signing trades and some young assets, so they can make

117
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 6: another move if they wanted to. And last, but not least,

118
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 6: you mentioned the Atlanta Hawks. They getting to ki Alexander Walker.

119
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 6: They just got Geez Louise from the Memphis Grizzlies, the

120
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 6: sharp shooter lu Kenard. Yeah, oh yeah, And that was

121
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 6: in addition to they'd already got Kristaps Porzingis. They've made

122
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,039
Speaker 6: a couple of movies, made some goodoos on draft nights.

123
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 6: So three teams that consensus seemed to be winning the

124
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,159
Speaker 6: first couple of days of free agency. I know today's

125
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 6: day one, but leading up pre agency are those three

126
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 6: teams all eyes on the Nuggets, the Hawks, and the Rockets.

127
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,359
Speaker 5: What the Hawks about? Me and Rob talked about this.

128
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 5: It's about time, like you've had Trey Young. He's been

129
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 5: a really good player. We know that, but people feel

130
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,839
Speaker 5: like you can't win with him. Initially people thought you

131
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 5: could win with him. So the Hawks, it's been time

132
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 5: for them to come on. And we just said, Rob,

133
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 5: the East is wide up. And if you were ever

134
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 5: gonna make a push, you know, the only team that

135
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 5: to me can sit there and say no, don't forget

136
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 5: us is Cleveland in a sense that, okay, we just

137
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,600
Speaker 5: won sixty something games, and don't forget about us. We

138
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 5: still got the same team coming back. But other than that,

139
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 5: the Knicks can feel like, Yo, we got this thing.

140
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 5: The Pistons can feel like, Yo, we got this thing.

141
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 5: Milwaukee can feel like, no, Giannis is gonna do it again.

142
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 5: I mean, the East is Orlando. The East is wide open.

143
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 5: And so if you're Atlanta, if there was ever a

144
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 5: time to strike, this would be the year.

145
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 4: I don't know where they are, you know, Atlanta I really,

146
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 4: I really don't know, Like because it was a couple

147
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 4: of years ago that Trey Young when they won that

148
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,159
Speaker 4: playoff series against the next people, they were you know,

149
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 4: thought they were going somewhere and then all of a

150
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:27,160
Speaker 4: sudden they kind of fell back.

151
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:27,840
Speaker 3: So I don't, I don't.

152
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:31,119
Speaker 4: I just don't know where they are, Like, like, really,

153
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 4: do I feel like.

154
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 3: They're gonna have a chance in the East. I don't.

155
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 3: I don't pick them over you know, three or four teams.

156
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,600
Speaker 4: I think if you look at it, I mean there's

157
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 4: no way with with obviously the injury uh to Tatum

158
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 4: and Halliburton, Right, Okay, so you look at those two

159
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 4: teams and Boston has shed people.

160
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,719
Speaker 5: I know that you can get a Celtic. You can

161
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 5: get a Celtic. Everybody get a time.

162
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,599
Speaker 4: I mean, they just figured that that they're not going

163
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 4: you know what I mean, like like you doing.

164
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 3: Like that shrewd business. They know how to listen.

165
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 5: They don't have to do the sentimental They got out

166
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 5: for Isaiah Thomas, who was five for two, five to two,

167
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 5: balling out there saving m v P. At think was

168
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 5: what third that year got hurt and they were like,

169
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 5: oh man, that's cool. Thanks for everything, right right, but hey,

170
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 5: have a good one. Fans going crazy, people online, people

171
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,680
Speaker 5: analysts talking bad? Are you supposed to be? You know

172
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 5: you you commit this? Somebody, he gave you his heart, soul.

173
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 5: His sister passed. Remember his sister passed away during the

174
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 5: playoffs and played and they.

175
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 3: Went out there hurt.

176
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 4: And you remember that they held it against him. I

177
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 4: say that all the time, like that's not right. You

178
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 4: can't ask somebody to play and then.

179
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 3: And they be like, man, you know you hurt. That's

180
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 3: what that's messed up.

181
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 6: That incident is why reportedly Anthony Days had no interest

182
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 6: in going to get traded to Boston.

183
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, they dealt with Isaiah.

184
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 5: Thomas because it was it was foul you know what

185
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 5: I mean, game memory and they were like good looking, thanks, well, holla,

186
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 5: my sister passed.

Speaker 5: He was his hip was torn up. Yeah, he was

190
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 5: a laker. He went a couple other places.

Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, rob g the box and knowing over

192
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 4: the weekend, let's get to that real quick.

193
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 6: You're talking about Yonty Wilder No, you're not talking about that.

194
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 6: You're talking about Jake Paul. No, you love Jake Pod.

195
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 6: Ask me how much I've watched Jake Paul. How much

196
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 6: is you watch? Okay, well, a couple of highlights. But

Speaker 6: do you think I'm gonna watch his fight the Tyson one?

198
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 6: Remember I told you that, No, I've watched it, called it,

199
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 6: but I remember we watched it here Rob caught the

00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 6: illegal stream exactly if he brought their legal stream.

201
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 3: But but you know I'm not giving Jake Paul to Nichols.

202
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 6: All right, Well, a lot of people gave Jake Paul

203
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 6: two Nichols over the weekend because he beat former professional

204
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 6: boxer Julio Sayser Chavis Junior on Saturday, easy decision. As

205
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,719
Speaker 6: a result, guys, get this, he has officially moved is

206
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 6: at the top fifteen of the WBA cruiserweight division, which

207
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 6: means he is eligible for a title shot.

208
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 3: Now.

209
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:59,439
Speaker 6: Yes, Jake Paul, who has fought basketball players, UFC fighters

210
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:03,680
Speaker 6: and retired boxers, is now eligible for a world title fight.

211
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 3: Was he if he gets it?

212
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 6: But after the fight, a current champion WBC superwalterweight champ

213
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:13,719
Speaker 6: Virgil Ortiz, Virgil, thank you put out a tweet that

214
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 6: just went in on Jake Paul. Here's what it reads

215
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 6: in part, Jake Paul is scamming the entire world with

216
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 6: his circus fights, selling his real fights, but the entire

217
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 6: world contease to eat it all up and then have

218
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 6: the nerve to be disappointed because the circus.

219
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 3: Fights they pay to watch aren't real fights.

220
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 6: He is single handedly destroying the sport and everyone else

221
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 6: is enabling it.

222
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 4: I'm with him, I'm serious, like, like this is you know,

223
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 4: you talk about it, well, there's nothing to do. Just

224
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 4: what's the big deal? Just kid it, watch it, bring

225
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 4: some fight. But you you're enabling him to continue to

226
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 4: do this and not deliver the product.

227
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 3: I get it.

228
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,559
Speaker 4: People watch train wrecks, people galk on the highway, right,

229
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 4: they might see somebody's leg off or something.

230
00:09:59,000 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 7: You know.

231
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 4: Like I'm just saying so, just because a lot of

232
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,559
Speaker 4: people are paying attention, what doesn't mean that it's good.

233
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:10,679
Speaker 4: And that's the problem I have, Like when you pay money,

234
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 4: you you can make this thing even worse.

235
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:15,439
Speaker 3: And what as a guy who covered.

236
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 4: Boxing and whatnot where boxing is headed and now for

237
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 4: them to even consider him getting a fight, you know,

238
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 4: a title fight, Yeah, because they see the money that's

239
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 4: attached to him, do you know what I mean, And

240
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 4: they want some of it, whether he's earned it or

241
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,479
Speaker 4: not or had legitimate fights to get to this point.

242
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:37,319
Speaker 4: I just it is a mockery. It's a shame, and

243
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 4: I just won't have any part of it. I think

244
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,680
Speaker 4: boxing has been destroyed, and Jake Paul is a bad

245
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 4: thing for boxing.

246
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 3: That's me.

247
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 5: Here's the problem, though, Rob, I blame boxing boxing when

248
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:49,720
Speaker 5: you mentioned it the heyday. I mean, obviously boxing has

249
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:53,440
Speaker 5: been a big American stable from real fights, you know,

250
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,320
Speaker 5: but back in the seventies, the eighties, the nineties and

251
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,079
Speaker 5: even early two thousand and man, you had that, dude,

252
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 5: There's no way you missed a fill in the blank fight.

253
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,840
Speaker 5: I don't care if Felix Trinidad to to to Oscar

254
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 5: de la Hoya to Roy Jones Jr. To Tyson to

255
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 5: Evan you boxing was real deal. Where what we do.

256
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 5: We're at the fight, We're at the fight party. We're

257
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 5: going to a sports bar. My buddies got like you

258
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 5: made sure this Saturday night you could bring a date.

259
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 5: If Rob G said, hey man, everybody come to the crib,

260
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:27,959
Speaker 5: big boxing fight.

261
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 3: Come on, over.

262
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 5: We're gonna get some drinks and food, have a good time.

263
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,200
Speaker 5: You could bring your lady like a new date. Hayes,

264
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 5: big fight, My gosh, let's go watch a fight. Girl

265
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,480
Speaker 5: dressing up for the fight. It was real deal. Everybody

266
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 5: was excited about fights, and I blame boxing for starting

267
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,840
Speaker 5: to get too money hungry, to starting the cherry pick fights.

268
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 5: Who wouldn't fight a lot of this? People say with

269
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 5: Floyd Mayweather, I'm only gonna fight him. Well, I'm not

270
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 5: gonna fight that. You used to have the best of

271
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 5: the best of the best who said to themselves, Rob,

272
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,559
Speaker 5: I'm not the best if I don't fight him.

273
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 4: No, but but but I'm with you on the boxing

274
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:03,679
Speaker 4: and that tip Floyd and Floyd stopped me from watching box. Okay,

275
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,840
Speaker 4: we used to have to fights at the barbers, but

276
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 4: I used to stop because they weren't entertaining. And it

277
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,680
Speaker 4: was always the fight that we wanted up and the

278
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 4: fight that we wanted we didn't get right five right,

279
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 4: We didn't get the fight when we should have gotten it.

280
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 4: And my point now with Jake Paul and him just

281
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 4: fighting these has been never was is in all these

282
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 4: Tyson and whatnot, it is a mockery.

283
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 3: It is. And that's why I didn't want Mike Tyson.

284
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 4: Remember I told you I didn't want him to be

285
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,559
Speaker 4: a part of that, because he's a real fighter.

286
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 5: One of the best of what I'm doing. And and

287
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 5: this is the problem, rob with where we are now.

288
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 5: And I think there's a large group of young people

289
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 5: and I was telling Robb g this who have grown

290
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 5: up on social media, who actually don't know what classic,

291
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,839
Speaker 5: iconic or great is. And what I mean is they

292
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 5: don't know about great fights when fights were a thing.

293
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 5: They don't know out great movies because now all these

294
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 5: movies are Netflix movies and Amazon, where they're not great.

295
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 3: They just get a big name to make it pay.

296
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 5: Hey, Kevin Hard, Adam Sandler, here's one hundred million dollars

297
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 5: for five movies. And they're cranking at my movie movie

298
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 5: movie move, just to crank out and get past the

299
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 5: deal where the movies aren't great.

300
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 3: But the kids are just.

301
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,439
Speaker 5: Streaming and they don't know what iconic, with great, what

302
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 5: classic is anymore. So now they'll tolerate anything, and they'll

303
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 5: tolerate the current of the moment. And that's where we

304
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 5: are so boxing, they don't know great boxing Rob unfortunately,

305
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 5: so they just know Jake Paul's popular. He looks serious

306
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 5: in the ring, he looks and watches his new documentary

307
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 5: of him getting in shape to fight, and to them,

308
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 5: that is a fight. There are eighteen year olds right

309
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 5: now who genuinely look at Jake Paul as an actual,

310
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 5: real fight like that. Then in their mind, a boxer

311
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,199
Speaker 5: is Jake Paul because that's all they known. He's mastered

312
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 5: social media, he's master clicks, he's Mastercloud, and he's master views.

313
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,280

Speaker 7: You don't have that anymore.

436
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,159

00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,880
Speaker 5: You know what else too? They didn't rob we didn't

472
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 5: hold it against them. This is where another reason why

473
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,359
Speaker 5: Floyd messed it up to me, nobody cared if they lost.

474
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,240
Speaker 5: If I told you Sugar Ray lost the Timmy Heards

475
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:36,200
Speaker 5: and Timmy Hearns lost you, you'd be like man, run

476
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 5: that back. That was a fight of the year. You

477
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 5: didn't care who lost. You want to see the fight again.

478
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 5: Now everybody's scared to lose one. I don't want to

479
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 5: lose a fight. To lose ridiculous.

480
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 3: Nobody can't. Mamma, and lost a handful of fights and

481
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:47,920
Speaker 3: still people thought he was the great.

482
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 4: It is Jimmy and Omaha. You're on the couple of

Speaker 10: Hopefully we can see you guys back in Vegas again.

494
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,720
Speaker 10: For Terence Crawford and Canela Lalvarez, which I'm amazed you

495
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 10: guys haven't brought up in this entire conversation. We have

496
00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 10: a fighter right now in the world that's trying to

497
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 10: unify three separate weight classes for the first time in

498
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 10: American boxing history. You got Turkey Doll of chic.

499
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,000
Speaker 9: And the people at yat Season paying the money to.

500
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:35,200
Speaker 7: Get the fights that we want to see.

501
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 10: Kelvin, you were talking about not getting the fights delivered

502
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 10: to us, and there's a concentrated effort for it happening

503
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,160
Speaker 10: in boxing for the first time. And I think Jake

504
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 10: Paul is just kind of the sour grapes on top

505
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,479
Speaker 10: of all of this right now, because there's an actual

506
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:49,439
Speaker 10: effort in boxing to try to fix the sports.

507
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,359
Speaker 5: Here's the thing, though, Jimmy Rup I hear you, Jimmy,

508
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:54,919
Speaker 5: but we get this once every fivext year. We get

509
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 5: all exited, Oh okay, and that might be back and

510
00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 5: then we don't get it again. So if you don't

511
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:01,159
Speaker 5: have the follow up to me, then you got us

512
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 5: excited for no reason. And by the time you do that,

513
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 5: Jake Paul's had four more fights.

514
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:08,399
Speaker 4: All right, And and unfortunately yeah, Jimmy, Thanks appreciate.

515
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 3: Shout us to Jimmy and all the folks out there.

516
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 3: Real quick.

517
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,160
Speaker 4: Drey, we'll get you real quick. You're in the odd

518
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 4: couple of Fox Sports Radio.

519
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 11: Hey well, if you're going on, thanks taking a call.

520
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,919
Speaker 11: I have to side with Kelvin on this. To blame

521
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 11: the onus is on boxing itself for not producing the

522
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,160
Speaker 11: fights that people want to see. I tip my hat

523
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 11: to Butt Crawford going up multiple weight classes to fight Canelo.

524
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 11: People are going to tune into people want to see.

525
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:34,000
Speaker 11: They wanted to see Crawford Spen, you know, those mega fights.

526
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 11: But again money Mayweather for as interesting and as you know,

527
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 11: he did diminish the quality of boxing trying to protect

528
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 11: that perfect record. And Calvin, you know you brought up

529
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:46,199
Speaker 11: the point. You know people fought multiple times Ali and

530
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 11: phrase they fought three times, people tuned up, tuned in

531
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,160
Speaker 11: for every single one. There's no shame in losing if

532
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:52,360
Speaker 11: you fight the best.

533
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 4: Right, no, right, Nobody was trying to do that with

534
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 4: tomato cans, you know what I mean, and cupcakes and

535
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 4: just trying to hold on and pummel somebody you pick wins.

536
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:05,959
Speaker 3: Thank you, Thank you.

537

Speaker 3: it took a week off. Who was unheard of? Oh

559
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:01,159
Speaker 3: my god?

560
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 7: Wow? Okay, well, today must be a pretty special day

561
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:06,719
Speaker 7: agency day.

562
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess yes today, how about that? Let's go there.

563
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:15,119
Speaker 3: What moved you the most? Can we say?

564
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:18,240
Speaker 7: I'll tell you honestly. You know what's funny about free

565
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 7: agency now is that it's not what it once was.

566
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 7: You know, remember when free agency used to be like

567
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,679
Speaker 7: all about the stars and who was going where? And

568
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 7: you're watching the free agent shows and free agent fevers

569
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:36,880
Speaker 7: all these kind of things. Now, what's really about star players?

570
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 7: Because I mean, well role players, because stars don't really

571
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 7: become unrestricted free agency anymore because they do their deals

572
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 7: in advance, right. Yeah, actually, watch it was just a

573
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,640
Speaker 7: little different. I love the Doria Finney Smith to Houston.

574
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,040
Speaker 7: That's the one that stood out for me because they

575
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 7: had to replace Dylan Brooks. Somebody you can put in

576
00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 7: that starting lineup that can guard multiple positions like brook

577
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 7: Derry and Finney Smith is a good pit for that.

578
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:07,239
Speaker 4: How about from the Lakers standpoint of, uh, you know,

579
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 4: Lebron taking all the money in which I'm out of money, no,

580
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 4: but but the idea that are they going to be

581
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:14,879
Speaker 4: able to improve their team so that they can be

582
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:16,159
Speaker 4: in the mix out west?

583
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 3: It just seems weird to me. If you're still playing.

584
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 4: At forty forty one years old, you're obviously trying to

585
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:22,400
Speaker 4: play to win.

586
00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 3: It ain't that the numbers are already there.

587
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,200
Speaker 4: He's the all time leading scorer, you know what I mean,

588
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,880
Speaker 4: all these other things. It can't be just to play

589
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 4: and make fifty million dollars.

590
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:31,520
Speaker 3: Is it.

591
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:36,520
Speaker 7: No? I mean, but then Lebron didn't do anything different

592
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 7: than what any of us would have done.

593
00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:43,159
Speaker 4: Yeah, but jeez, at his age. I'm with you. I

594
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 4: don't think anybody should give a home team discount. I

595
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 4: don't think anybody should worry about the capologists and the

596
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,400
Speaker 4: team and them doing the general roundage doing their job.

597
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 3: I don't.

598
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:56,640
Speaker 4: But if you're Lebron at this point and you're still playing,

599
00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:58,640
Speaker 4: there's got to be you know what I mean?

600
00:25:58,680 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 6: Like that.

601
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:00,920
Speaker 3: It can't be the money part.

602
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 4: If the team is not gonna be able to field

603
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 4: a team you got knocked out in the first round,

604
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:06,960
Speaker 4: does that make sense?

605
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,080
Speaker 7: I don't know. I hear you, but I don't know

606
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 7: why all that simply just falls on Lebron. He opped

607
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 7: in into his deal and the deal that the Lakers

608
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 7: put on the table. I don't have a problem with

609
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 7: that one bit. I don't have a problem.

610
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 4: So if they have, no, if they so, Lebron could

611
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 4: play two or three more years not wining, and and

612
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:24,920
Speaker 4: you would just feel like, well, he got his money,

613
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 4: the team just wasn't good enough to win.

614
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 3: And that's the way it is.

615
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:30,720
Speaker 7: No, But the thing is, like, the hard part to

616
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 7: imagine is Lebron Like, this is the first time I

617
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:36,919
Speaker 7: heard today since what I don't know how long, twenty

618
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 7: years that he actually came to become a free agent.

619
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 3: Well, because they're over because they're not going.

620
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 7: To pay him for Lebron after this year.

621
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 3: Well don't you in LA.

622
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 7: Or is it elsewhere?

623
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:49,520
Speaker 3: Well, don't you believe you're.

624
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:50,040
Speaker 7: Playing at all?

625
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,399
Speaker 4: Right, but don't you believe that's because they looked at

626
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:56,920
Speaker 4: the landscape. No one's gonna give him fifty two million dollars, nobody.

627
00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:58,640
Speaker 7: You can say that about a whole lot of guys.

628
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 4: No, But I'm saying that is age and wave fits

629
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,640
Speaker 4: in and what you have to do to have him rob.

630
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,320
Speaker 7: I mean, we can say that he was second team

631
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 7: on the league, you know what I mean. So, so

632
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 7: any way you break it down or any way you

633
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 7: look at it, his.

634
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 4: Impact he might have been his impact isn't the same.

635
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:20,120
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, his impact isn't the same. Defensively, he doesn't

636
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 4: do anything.

637
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,480
Speaker 7: No, no, no, well, I mean it shouldn't be the same

638
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:25,879
Speaker 7: at forty one years old, right, I'm just saying. But

639
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,879
Speaker 7: here's the thing, though, Rob him being at forty one

640
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 7: years old, him being forty one years old, maybe honestly

641
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:36,119
Speaker 7: the best player that Luca has ever played with, even

642
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 7: at the age that he's at right now.

643
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,920
Speaker 5: Last night, I don't think that's a debate. I mean,

644
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,400
Speaker 5: Lebron and I do think.

645
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,360
Speaker 3: They're knocked out in the first round last year.

646
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 5: And I think that's where the dilemma draw comes from.

647
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 5: Antonio Daniels, our guest, you're on the Oco Fox Sports Radio,

648
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 5: is because if you're the Lakers, well we want to

649
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,640
Speaker 5: get rid of we want to move on. But there's

650
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,120
Speaker 5: ten guys maybe better than Lebron, And I think that's

651
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 5: the problem is it's easy to say a lot of fans,

652
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:03,639
Speaker 5: you know, we're his station here in LA and they

653
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 5: say move on, move on. But it's like, okay, but

654
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 5: ten guys.

655
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,639
Speaker 3: Isn't going anywhere. But at some point you got to

656
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:14,920
Speaker 3: look at it and go seriously. And I get it.

657
00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 4: They kept Kobe, they gave him the big money, and

658
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 4: guess what, they didn't make the playoffs for the last

659
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 4: five or five or six years of Kobe's career.

660
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:24,520
Speaker 3: Is that what is that what you want? I mean,

661
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:26,240
Speaker 3: that's where they would say, we keep getting to the

662
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:26,960
Speaker 3: playoffs with Broun.

663
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 7: The number one is is Lebron is playing better at

664
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 7: this stage than Kobe was.

665
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:33,639
Speaker 3: No, I'm just saying.

666
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,960
Speaker 7: He's more impactful right now than than than Kobe was,

667
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 7: you know. And the thing that Laker fans have to

668
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:45,239
Speaker 7: understand is you can't move Lebron. You can't move him.

669
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 7: You can buy him out right, but you can't move

670
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 7: him because there's not going to be another team out

671
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 7: there that with this new CBA and the way this

672
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:58,200
Speaker 7: whole thing works. That's a completely other discussion. No team

673
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,959
Speaker 7: is going to give up their few no, for a

674
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 7: forty one year old Lebron James.

675
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 3: I agree, they would be crazy to do.

676
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 7: You can't move them, no, but this ring him is

677
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 7: not announce.

678
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 3: That you got a no trade claw.

679
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 5: So you couldn't even just trade him anyway if he

680
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,400
Speaker 5: if he didn't want to, Ay Dave, we got like

681
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 5: a minute or two here some other moves. We were

682
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 5: kind of talking about this with Rob g The Nuggets

683
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:22,760
Speaker 5: have been able to make a couple of quiet, sneaky

684
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 5: little moves and still retain most of their their team.

685
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 5: Michael Porter Junior gone for Cam Johnson, Bruce Brown back,

686
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 5: who was a part of that championship team. You got

687
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 5: the Hawks doing a bunch of moves here, anybody else

688
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 5: jumping out that's been able to make some moves here

689
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 5: or there that you say, all right, I see what

690
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 5: you're doing.

691
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:38,120
Speaker 3: I like what you're doing.

692
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 7: I honestly, Denverer was the other team that actually stood

693
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:45,959
Speaker 7: out outside of Houston. Denver really stood out because you know,

694
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 7: in free agency and Oklahoma City did this last year, right,

695
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 7: they had needs and they addressed those needs. Denver had

696
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:55,880
Speaker 7: needs and they went down to address those needs. I

697
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 7: think Cam Johnson is an excellent replacement for Michael Port.

698
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,480
Speaker 7: I think he is an excellent placer for Michael Ford

699
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,920
Speaker 7: Junior because you get the defensive side of the ball

700
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 7: and you also get to shoot it. And I know

701
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,120
Speaker 7: Bruce Brown was in New Orleans in last year, and

702
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 7: I know he wanted to get back to Denver, right,

703
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 7: That's where he played his best basketball so adding Bruce

704
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 7: Brown back to the mix of that team that they

705
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:21,840
Speaker 7: already hadn't placed, I think outside of the Houston Rockets,

706
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 7: off the top of my head, the Denver Nuggets really

707
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:25,640
Speaker 7: stand out.

708
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:26,080
Speaker 3: Yeah.

709
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 5: I like what I like some of the moves they

710
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 5: made there too. They didn't overly panic and start freaking out,

711
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 5: uh you know, and they kind of kept the cores

712
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 5: while still upgrading.

713
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 4: I'm just curious. One live, we got one minute, just curious.

714
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:39,880
Speaker 4: I know that Nets had a ton of picks and

715
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:42,000
Speaker 4: they picked like what four guards or whatever.

716
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 3: What are they doing? I'm asking you, ad, no, ad.

717
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 4: I mean, I've been covering the league since nineteen eighty seven.

718
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 3: And I swear to you, I don't know. I don't

719
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 3: know what they're doing.

720
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 2: I don't written there.

721
00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 7: I'm not gonna lie to you. I don't either.

722
00:30:57,960 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, you better.

723
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 7: I think I feel like the Brooklyn Nets are going

724
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 7: to have a problem. They're going to have an issue

725
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,880
Speaker 7: even spending their free agent money, right, They're going to

726
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 7: have to overpay for someone that does not deserve the

727
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 7: payday that they're about to get. But they're going to

728
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 7: have an issue because coming into the summer, they had

729
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 7: the most money available.

730
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 4: Right, they got all young kids, right, they have money

731
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 4: to spend. But I don't know what the plan is

732
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 4: or what they're doing. They got a beautiful building in

733
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 4: downtown Brooklyn. Man, I just do not know.

734
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 3: What they do.

735
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 7: What Man, They're in a rebuilding process. They're in a

736
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 7: complete rebuilding process, not retooling, but rebuilding. Nobody wants to

737
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 7: be a part of a rebuilding process when other teams

738
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 7: in the league are starting to take off.

739
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 5: I tell you what I said this last week, Rob

740
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 5: you were gone. I said, the best thing the Nets

741
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 5: had going for them when they have free concerts from

742
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 5: jay Z when he was a minority owner.

743
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 3: That was the best thing the Nets have ever done.

744
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,320
Speaker 5: I got to see jay Z perform for free.

745
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 7: That was I know. We got to go. And I

746
00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 7: forgot the Atlanta Hawks as well.

747
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, made some.

748
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 7: Really really good moves. They signed to kill Alexander Walker today,

749
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 7: trading for Chris top sports ingas like they made some

750
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:12,720
Speaker 7: really good moves. They added to what they already had.

751
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 7: You get Jalen Johnson back healthy, Atlanta gonna make some

752
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:16,840
Speaker 7: noise in that Eastern Conference.

753
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 5: It was wide open. We talked about a couple segments.

754
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 5: Before you joined us, the Eastern Conference was wide open.

755
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 5: So if there was ever a chance to do it,

756
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:24,560
Speaker 5: dang it. This is the year and people are probably

757
00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 5: tired of Trey Young. They're like, all right, Trey, and

758
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 5: we need something out of you, all right, ad ad,

759
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 5: thank you, my man. Appreciate you for sure.

760
00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:32,080
Speaker 7: Appreciate it.

761
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 6: Fellas
