Spurs Yoh he 41 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 1: was fifty. But yeah, ay the way is long, so 42 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 1: we'll love more on this. We got again. We got 43 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 1: Rick Bucker coming up in about fifteen minutes. All the 44 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 1: big news in the NBA. But meanwhile, the day after 45 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: the NFL trade deadline, it is kind of like the 46 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,239 Speaker 1: day after Christmas. All right, you open up your presence. 47 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 1: Now you want to go play with them? And uh, 48 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: today was yet another day for the Jets. Who you know, 49 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: how are things going to go after the big trade 50 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: of Sauce Gardner and Quinnin Williams, the attempts to trade 51 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,399 Speaker 1: Breeze Hall and Jermaine Johnson, but they didn't work out. 52 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:43,919 Speaker 1: At least I thought today no one was going to 53 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: ask Aaron Glenn about the quarterback situation. But yeah, you 54 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: still got those questions. Well you still have to take 55 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 1: those questions, I mean, because in the end, that's still 56 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 1: the straw that stirs the second half drink. Yeah, no, 57 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 1: even if it's not what you wanted, not what you ordered, 58 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: this is all we got. The only thing working at 59 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:04,799 Speaker 1: the fountain, Get over it. The Jets actually demote quinnn 60 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: Williams brother, Quincy Williams, who was All Pro linebacker two 61 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: years ago but has not played great this year. He's 62 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,359 Speaker 1: been injured. They demote him, and he said, they told 63 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 1: me what I needed to do better and got to 64 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:17,919 Speaker 1: play Downhill more. I have to do different things. Okay, 65 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: that's fine. But then Aaron Glenn, because you know, I 66 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: know the Jets can't have nice things. This is what 67 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn says today about the team. Right. He had 68 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: said when he got hired. Hey, I want to put 69 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 1: a team out there that fans are proud of. Right, 70 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 1: I want to make show which is great. Right. I 71 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: want to hear a coach say, because I want to 72 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,519 Speaker 1: be proud of my team. I don't want to say, 73 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: have to sit back and go. 74 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 3: Man. 75 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: I can't wear my Jets skier for a while. Man, 76 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: I can't. I can't. I can just tomorrow I can 77 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: start wearing my met skier again because his first day 78 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: of free agency. So I'm like, okay, Dodgers, Yeah, no, 79 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: dog season's over. You can't. Dodgers won seasons over. They 80 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: had to parade everything else. The Metsiga trade for Treik 81 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: school all tomorrow. So I'm okay, They've already done all 82 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:57,119 Speaker 1: their media rounds. They're there at the Laker game tonight, 83 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: they were hanging out on the late night talk shows. 84 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: They went to Dancing with the Stars earlier. I mean 85 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: they're everywhere. Tomorrow starts. Teams can sign free agents starting tomorrow. 86 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 1: All right, I can wear my met skier again. But 87 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: I'm like, boy, when can I really wear my Jet skier? 88 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: A part of me is thinking I could this week. 89 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: I mean, we won two weeks ago, didn't play this week, 90 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,679 Speaker 1: traded away players that were bad with to get draft 91 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: picks that maybe will be better with their replacements. Proud 92 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 1: versus proud right lower case p versus the upper case 93 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 1: boldface is you're still that's still your squad, right for 94 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: better for worse. Now this iteration of them, perhaps they've 95 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 1: tested your patience on a whole other level because you 96 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 1: had expectations for this squad. You had it with Rogers, 97 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: you're one coming back last year, and who knows this year, 98 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,559 Speaker 1: even with Justin Fields, you were all in on your coach. 99 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 1: I wasn't all. That's the that's the only debt one 100 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: and the only that's the I said, wearing Jets clothes 101 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 1: with the symbol is the new kick me sign on it. 102 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: People are allowed to hit you as they walk by you. 103 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 1: You might get clubbed. You wear it a jets, all right, 104 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: you're gonna throw a trash at you. Uh, but here's 105 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: Aaron Glenum. I beat you up. No, come a dude, Bresall, 106 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: poor brisol, dude took the Socials every chance to get 107 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 1: I mean he didn't even get Jacoby Myers had to wait, 108 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: but he eventually got out. Now he got shipped to Jacksonville. 109 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 1: But I mean Bresall was begging and got left behind. 110 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 4: Uh. 111 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: I'm glad you mentioned Jacob Myers. We'll have more on 112 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: him coming up in a minute. But the thing with 113 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn is like, Okay, I'm stuck with him. And 114 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: because he's it's too much, the job is too much 115 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 1: for him. Well, once he was a jet, he's further 116 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 1: jet and he's back, and once you're a jet, you're 117 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 1: a jet all the way from your first loss to 118 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 1: your last dying day. But like just the fact that 119 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 1: he won't throw Hill Mary's at the end of the 120 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 1: first half, I want to get to halftime, dude, what 121 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 1: are you talking about? But anyway, he says this today, 122 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 1: he said. Earlier in the year, he said, hey, listen, 123 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: I want the Jets to be a team that made 124 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,919 Speaker 1: the fan base proud. He said that would define a 125 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: successful season. Great, great thing to say. On Wednesday, he 126 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: kind of amended that by saying this, I want this 127 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: to be a team the fans are proud of. Great. 128 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,840 Speaker 1: But again, I never said they were going to be 129 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: proud of them right now. So what he's saying is 130 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,159 Speaker 1: it's okay to hate the Jets and not be proud 131 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 1: of them because they're terrible and there's no reason to 132 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: be proud of this team right now. But eventually you'll 133 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 1: be proud of the Jets. Now that sounds like like 134 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 1: a parent or grandpair whoever. It's like, you know, I 135 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: love you. You do a lot of great things. Just 136 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 1: I'm having troubles with you right now. You forgot to 137 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 1: turn in an assignment, you were late, you didn't take 138 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 1: out the garbage. I mean all of those things. You 139 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: have those moments where you know you have to look 140 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 1: and you shake your id. Never you didn't do it. 141 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: I never said I'm proud of you right now. I 142 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 1: never never. Overall, I really like you know, you bring 143 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,359 Speaker 1: a lot of happiness and joining in my life. Oh, however, 144 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 1: right now, you're not going to be proud like I'm 145 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: expecting to say, Hey, be proud of them going out here. 146 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: The guys here want to go out and win every game. Yeah, 147 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: they're still bad the best and they can. They're still funny. Instead, hey, look, 148 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: you don't want to be proud of these guys right now. No, 149 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: not even coming to practice. We're not even you think 150 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: we're practicing, We're not. I mean, it's we just have 151 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: guys show up for their mandated media sessions. That's it. 152 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: We have me. Really, there's no need to practice because 153 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 1: we're tanking. We want for Nana Mendoza right or Dante more. 154 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: Want to make sure we direct in the top two 155 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: next year. We're getting our quarterback. We had all our 156 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: draft picks. We're not about now. I mean to say, 157 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: I never said you'd be proud of them right now. Aha, 158 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: I'm moving the gold posts on you. You'll be proud 159 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 1: of them. I never said right now. It's like, hey, 160 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: i'll buy you ice cream. How about that ice cream? 161 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 1: I never said I'd buy you ice cream today. I'll 162 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 1: buy you ice cream at some point. Yeah, No, it's 163 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 1: it's making good on bets and dinners or whatever. And 164 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: that's the jets I mean, But I mean he's being 165 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:58,239 Speaker 1: realistic as kindly as he can say. It's like, look, 166 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 1: it's it's growing pain stick with us because I got 167 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: to imagine, you know, owing to our draft day love, 168 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: the message boards were replete with what the blank are 169 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 1: we doing right? Yesterday? You get rid of two discernible assets. 170 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 1: Now some of the reports and I'm not going to 171 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: call out insiders by name, saying, hey, they dismantled the 172 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: top five defense, Like what top five defense? The hell 173 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: you been watching? I like it? This theoretical earth insert 174 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: number here, top five defense because that ain't what we 175 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 1: watched this year. But all of that to say, you 176 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 1: only went and did half on your reclamation project. Because 177 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: we talked about Bresall, it's something that we've done a 178 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: bunch of he's not under contract after this year, and 179 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,840 Speaker 1: he's made it pretty clear you don't want to be there. 180 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,199 Speaker 1: Of course, you do franchise them. Hell no, you're not franchising, 181 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,680 Speaker 1: So why would you not take the offer that was 182 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: on the table. What they say last night, I said 183 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: it last night. And when it gets to two minutes 184 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 1: before the deadline, and it's a fourth round pick. You 185 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,959 Speaker 1: take a fourth round pick. I'm sorry, he's gonna walk 186 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 1: off in the office season and tell you to beat it. 187 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 1: I mean, And for other teams it's like, okay, for 188 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: the Chiefs, what are you stupid? Give a third round pick? 189 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: You get Breese Hall. Are you trying to win the 190 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: Super Bowl? 191 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 4: Now? 192 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,439 Speaker 1: Lets tell me he was an epic fail by the 193 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: Chiefs and Steelers were the two teams that stood out 194 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 1: every epic fail epic fail. So the Jets still being 195 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 1: the Jets, you can't have nice things. As Aaron Glenn says, 196 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 1: you're I'm proud of the guys. I've never said that, 197 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 1: never said that. Now you mentioned Jacoby Myers with the deal, right, 198 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: and now it's a big move for the Jaguars. Travis 199 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 1: Hunters on the injured list and Thomas can't catch. Uh 200 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: sorry for all those folks that Parker Washington. But now 201 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: they go get Jacoby Myers. And I love this move 202 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: by the Jaguars because they have realized what we have 203 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: told you for a long time, and this is that 204 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:50,960 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence is incredibly overrated. He is the most overrated 205 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: quarterback in the NFL. We've told you this for a 206 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 1: long time and now everybody kind of knows it. You've 207 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: seen him through so many different iterations of coaches and 208 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 1: systems with players and not and he's just a guy, 209 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:06,439 Speaker 1: all right. They needed Jacoby Myers because you gotta get him. 210 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,679 Speaker 1: So many great players try to throw the football too, 211 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: like let's keep good because he doesn't make anybody around 212 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 1: him better. He doesn't throw enough touchdowns, He throws too 213 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: many interceptions, had that brutal red zone interception against the Raiders, 214 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 1: which you're like, what are you doing throwing the football 215 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 1: that way? Outside of his heroics against Kansas City, which 216 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: kind of saved his reputation for a little bit earlier 217 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:28,959 Speaker 1: this year, Right, it was a primetime game. We watch 218 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 1: him getting the end zone that saved him. That's the 219 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: only bright spot. He doesn't elevate the offense. We still think. 220 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,439 Speaker 1: People still think Trevor Lawrence is great because he was 221 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: a studded Clemson and the Jaguars were embarrassed that we 222 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 1: drafted this guy. We told everybody he was gonna be great. 223 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 1: We were told he was gonna be great. If we 224 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: don't give him money, it's embarrassing. We don't give him 225 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: fifty million dollars year, it's embarrassing. Well, hang on a second, 226 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: he didn't need to do that because he's just a guy. 227 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: He's an average NFL quarterback. We've seen enough of him 228 00:10:56,120 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 1: to know that now. But the Jaguars, Hey, he's average enough. 229 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 1: I guess we can justify paying him by the fact 230 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 1: that maybe we get a guy that's worse. You know, 231 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: our track record for picking quarterbacks is spotted at best. 232 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 1: So yeah, we're paying a guy who's maybe a league 233 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: average quarterback. Maybe again, maybe a league average quarter we're 234 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 1: gonna give but again, Now, he was a stud at 235 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: Clemsony was so good we love to remember. Okay, that's 236 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,559 Speaker 1: not him anymore. And if you need to move on, 237 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think the reaction would be, 238 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: oh my goodness, how do we let Trevor Lawrence go? 239 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: The reaction would be, boy, can Trevor Lawrence get Sam darnoalded? 240 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 1: Can Trevor Lawrence get Baker mayfielded? 241 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 3: By? 242 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: Somewhere? Can someone get out of him what we couldn't 243 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 1: get out of him here? In so many different iterations, 244 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 1: I don't know, man, Like I say, there's a system 245 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 1: for everybody. But guys like Sam Darnald, they were in 246 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: one system with the Jets. Didn't work, Okay, so now 247 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 1: they move on right, Okay, one system with the Panthers, 248 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,839 Speaker 1: it didn't work. Now he gets his chance. Like Trevor, 249 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 1: Lawrence has now had three or four chances with different ways, 250 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: different different types of receip that he's had come in 251 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,959 Speaker 1: great players that they thought were gonna be great players. 252 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,199 Speaker 1: He cycled there. You go back to one man, when 253 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: Christian Kirk was a great receiver in the NFL before 254 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,559 Speaker 1: he got hurt a couple of times, he was terrific. 255 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 1: They kept trying to give him good players for a 256 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 1: long time. And still this is a guy who's he's 257 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: maybe a league average quarterback at best. Well, he made 258 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 1: that guy good because he was at nothing, went to 259 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: Jacksonville and popped briefly, and then he couldn't stay healthy. 260 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: And now he's, you know, kind of a journeyman. Fourteen catches, 261 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty five yards this year for Houston, 262 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 1: can't stay on the field. But you look at Lawrence overall, 263 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: I mean, Brian Thomas Junior is not the guy that 264 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: everybody anticipated that he would be plenty of drops and 265 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 1: the Jaguars receiving corps as all. I have no idea. 266 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 1: Do they not do extra work on the jugs machine? 267 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: I mean, what are we missing here? It's been a 268 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 1: comedy of airs. And it's not to excuse Lawrence because 269 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 1: we've watched him miss throw after throw. He is the 270 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 1: average and he's part of what the NFL has been. 271 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,559 Speaker 1: Next man up kind of situation when it came to 272 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 1: paying quarterbacks and how many guys have we talked about 273 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: in that regard. It's like, well, what else are you 274 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 1: gonna do? The devil you know, the devil you don't. 275 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 1: And Liam Cohen he comes in with his duval he 276 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 1: was gonna be the guy that picked it, and for 277 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 1: a couple of minutes he kind of has fixed the 278 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 1: other parts of the team because they run the football well. 279 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: They they did defense well enough run the ball yet 280 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 1: three weeks, but when they realized, hey, wait a minute, 281 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,440 Speaker 1: we don't need to respect Trevor Lawrence as much. There's 282 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 1: no there's no balance. But they they ran the football 283 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: really well the first weeks. They play pretty good defense 284 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 1: now elevating Travis Hunter and maybe he was gonna break out, 285 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 1: but then he gets hurt. That's a really bad break 286 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: for them because maybe he was going to be that 287 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 1: ascending talent. Suddenly now you got a new number one receiver, 288 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 1: new thing happening. So but it looked but it's not 289 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: like he came in. It's been a disaster. He's come 290 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 1: in and kind of fixed a couple of things, it 291 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 1: just hasn't overall worked because Trevor Lawrence is limited. This 292 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: is kind of who he is. If he was dynamic 293 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:03,679 Speaker 1: and threw a lot of picks, Okay, I get it. 294 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 1: If he was this dynamic but through much less interceptions, 295 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 1: I get it. But he's not dynamic and he throws 296 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:12,320 Speaker 1: too many interceptions. Yeah, you're not pushing the ball. And 297 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 1: we watched this squad and it was one that the 298 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 1: curiosity was Travis Hunter and they'd started to use him. 299 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: So now on Ir misses the four weeks, which necessit 300 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 1: states the trade because you're still looking at your division going, well, 301 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: if you can just get hot because the defense has 302 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 1: played well in spurts, and then once you lean in 303 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: on him, then they give you a big letdown effort, 304 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: but they're not going to score any you know, buckets 305 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: of points. At any point. So, yeah, Trevor Lawrence is 306 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: a guy in a crowded field of quarterbacks that you say, well, 307 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 1: if he moved on, how many of those guys can 308 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: legitimately move on? Though? And they've already cycled what is this? 309 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: Three coaches removed from what Urban Meyer do with him? 310 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 2: Yeah? 311 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 1: Now, now it's a long way to it. Now, it's 312 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: a long way, right, gonna make Kayleb Williams had his hebraflues, sure, 313 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 1: and Trevor Lawrence had his Urban Mind, had my eberflus. 314 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: I've had enough, Okay, I've had one eberfriend, mym of eberfluses. 315 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 1: And now fly eberfly, Eberfoberfly, not hebrafly Eberfly looses exit 316 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 1: out bout a Fresca exit swelling Dome.

It's been a big night for 339 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: Lebron or a big night, big night for Luca tonight, 340 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 1: having a huge night so far. I mean, look, he 341 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: was doing everything the first half for the Lakers so far. 342 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 1: Now in thirty two minutes, twenty seven points eleven. It 343 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 1: says eight boards, four steals, couple of blocks, he's doing 344 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: everything now. We talked early in the show a lot 345 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: that boy, how awkward is it? Going to be when 346 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: Lebron does come back for the Lakers, he's coming back 347 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 1: as potentially the number three option with as good as 348 00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 1: Austin Reeves has been playing. How awkward? Again, I've said 349 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 1: many times, I still can't believe he's actually going to 350 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: take the court for the Lakers at some point this year. 351 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 1: He's not going to get traded before he has to play. 352 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 1: But now he's not going to travel on the upcoming 353 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: road trip, so we kicked that can down the road. 354 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 1: Do we have any audio of the conversations he's having 355 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 1: with Austin Reeves on the bench tonight? Joining us now 356 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 1: in the hot line to break down this story and more, 357 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:25,479 Speaker 1: Fox Sports one NBA insider Extraordinary Rick Buker, Rick, what's happening? 358 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:25,639 Speaker 3: Man? 359 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:26,119 Speaker 1: How are you? 360 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:31,239 Speaker 3: I'm gonna right now, for the next five seconds, I 361 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 3: am going to replicate the conversation that Lebron James is 362 00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 3: having with Austin Reeves right now on the bench. 363 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: Okay, that's too much dead air. Yeah, yeah, we were 364 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: going to get a knock call that we went up 365 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,239 Speaker 1: air or something. Time to break it up. 366 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 5: No, I don't know if Lebron has I don't know. 367 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,680 Speaker 3: This entire time, he's doing his greatest invitation of one 368 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 3: of the Eastern Island statues at the end of the bench, 369 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 3: like he's not talking. 370 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 5: To anybody, he's not reacting to at least from. 371 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:08,879 Speaker 3: What I've seen. I haven't been I haven't been in Uh, 372 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 3: I haven't been at any of these games live, but 373 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 3: from all indications, it's it's very weird to me that 374 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 3: he's he's having like zero interaction with anybody. It would 375 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 3: appear he's he looks, he's he looks like a mine 376 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 3: at the end of the bench, just like he's on 377 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 3: I don't know, he's he's been put in uh time 378 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 3: out or something like that. It's very bizarre, and it's 379 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 3: gonna be more bizarre. You guys named it. I mean 380 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 3: we were. I've been talking to people about this since 381 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 3: Austin Reeves started going off. 382 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 5: Like, oh, what do you do? 383 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 3: How do you make between Luca, between Luca and Austin, 384 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,959 Speaker 3: how do you make room for Lebron coming back? Particularly 385 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:56,880 Speaker 3: if you look at the players that they're putting out 386 00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 3: there around Luca for him to do what he does, like, 387 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 3: you need you need shooters, and you need defensive guys, 388 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 3: and certainly Lebron has demonstrated that he can space the 389 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 3: floor and shoot a three, but it's not really what 390 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 3: he likes to do full time. And defensively, he's a 391 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 3: shadow of what he once was. So it's it is 392 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 3: I'm with you guys, one hundred percent. I want to 393 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 3: see how how this goes when he has to come 394 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 3: back and and and he is the third Actually, you know, 395 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,159 Speaker 3: if the unrate and keeps playing. 396 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 5: Like this, the mountains like. 397 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: You like that. That's the thing, Rick, is that he's 398 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 1: never had to go through any point in his career 399 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 1: when he's anything less than the alpha on a team. 400 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 1: Now splitting up with Luca. Okay, I get it, he 401 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,160 Speaker 1: could take over in the playoffs, but now he's been 402 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 1: shunted aside, like we're Luca driven, we're trying to figure 403 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,679 Speaker 1: out how we're moving on past you. I find it 404 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:58,719 Speaker 1: hard to believe he's ever going to really get on 405 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: the floor with them this year. Now he's not going 406 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 1: to travel on the road trip. We're getting twenty some 407 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 1: odd games into the year. I wonder how much of 408 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 1: Lebron is just I'll come back when they hit the skids, 409 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 1: because that's the only way I can come back in 410 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,400 Speaker 1: and people think I'm helping the team and I'm back 411 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 1: to being Lebron. If they start losing, that's when he 412 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: comes back, when. 413 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 3: They hit the skids or there's an injury. But I 414 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:23,400 Speaker 3: also believe that, I mean, he has been the master 415 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:30,479 Speaker 3: of preservation and so you know, at his age, playing 416 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 3: as few regular season games as he can, so that 417 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 3: he's going to have whatever he's going to have down 418 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 3: the stretch and into the postseason. I mean, kind of 419 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 3: replicating as much as he can the bubble that worked 420 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 3: out well for him. So I don't know that he's 421 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 3: really looking to russ I rush. 422 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,160 Speaker 5: Back, and I think you are right, like it's. 423 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:54,639 Speaker 3: Looking for that opportunity to play that I'm coming into, 424 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,920 Speaker 3: you know, the wonder dog, I'm coming in to save 425 00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:01,399 Speaker 3: the day kind of situation for or Lebron. But even 426 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,879 Speaker 3: in that case, you know, the question is going to 427 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 3: be what, like, what role do you give him at 428 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 3: this point when they've been so successful with a Lucas 429 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 3: centric Austin Reeves centric team. I will say this too, 430 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 3: I want to see who where they are after this 431 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 3: road trip there. This is the first time they're going 432 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:28,679 Speaker 3: to be traveling significantly they're going to be on the 433 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:32,679 Speaker 3: East Eastern Seaboard, and then they're going to play some 434 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 3: of the best teams that they've that they faced to 435 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 3: this point. If you look at all the teams that 436 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 3: they've played, it's not like they've seen the best of 437 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 3: the best of the league. 438 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:44,640 Speaker 5: Even the Minnesota summer Wolves right now are a five 439 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:45,160 Speaker 5: hundred team. 440 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 3: Now, they're not playing anything close to what their capability 441 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 3: or expectations are. So I don't I don't know just 442 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,400 Speaker 3: how impressed we should be with this six to two 443 00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 3: record right now. 444 00:21:58,320 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 5: But sixty two is sixty two. 445 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 3: They're beating the teams they're supposed to be. But the 446 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 3: best drama is yet to come for sure. 447 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 1: Let's go on the other side of the equation for 448 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 1: the game tonight, five and one. Are the Spurs coming 449 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:14,160 Speaker 1: in seven guys and double figures tonight? What's the ceiling 450 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 1: with this squad led by Wemban Yama. 451 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:22,439 Speaker 3: Let's hope that they are that they are going to 452 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 3: be a playoff team this year. 453 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:28,399 Speaker 5: I would say that, and somebody asked me. 454 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,159 Speaker 3: This the other day, and I said, the ceiling was 455 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,640 Speaker 3: the second round. But it may be a vaulted ceiling, 456 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,400 Speaker 3: or maybe even an atrium. 457 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: Like that, that's good. 458 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:44,119 Speaker 3: It's it's like people are looking at Wemby, and certainly 459 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 3: Wemby has to to He still has some steps to go, 460 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,400 Speaker 3: and particularly where they get him the ball and where 461 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 3: he operates from. But for everybody getting all hot and 462 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 3: bothered about what the Phoenix Suns did to him, and 463 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 3: a little bit of what the Lakers are doing to 464 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 3: him tonight, who's. 465 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 5: Their second best player? Like? Who do you go? 466 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 6: Like? 467 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:07,119 Speaker 5: It shouldn't be. 468 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 3: That Wemby has to give you thirty twenty and nine 469 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 3: block shots in order for them to be great. That's 470 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 3: what he's done. And basically what Phoenix did and what 471 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 3: Lakers have done to a certain extent, is to say, 472 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 3: all right, you know what, we'll. 473 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 5: Double triple team him. We're going to crowd and we're. 474 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 3: Gonna get Marcus Smart up underneath them, and then we're 475 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 3: gonna have shot blocking and we're gonna make somebody else 476 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 3: on the San Antonio Spurs make plays and get things done, 477 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 3: and they're getting enough of it tonight. But I just 478 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,880 Speaker 3: I think that as much as Wembley still has room 479 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 3: to grow as far as the central character to a 480 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 3: deep playoff running team, that the supporting tast has ways 481 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:52,879 Speaker 3: to go to. 482 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 1: All right, so who do you believe it in? 483 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 3: More? 484 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 1: With the big surprise start right now, the Spurs are 485 00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 1: up by seven with about six minutes to go in 486 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 1: the game. The big surprise start by the Spurs or 487 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 1: the surprise start by the Bulls. 488 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 3: Oh you you? It changed up on me. I thought 489 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,360 Speaker 3: we were going to compare Philly and the Bulls. 490 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: I was just asking you if you well, because Mike 491 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 1: Harmon said, will you please ask about the Bulls? I said, okay, 492 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 1: we'll ask about the Bulls. I've been begging this whole time. 493 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:21,440 Speaker 1: Get to the Knicks in their one hundred and thirty 494 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 1: seven point effort against the Tea Wolves tonight. 495 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 3: We needed to say that. By the way, we're going 496 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 3: to go straight to that. I was going to say, 497 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:35,439 Speaker 3: it's about time you asked me about o g Annoby 498 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 3: Ananobe questions Jason exactly exactly, by the way, just real quick. 499 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:46,960 Speaker 3: I am loving this. Richard Jefferson, Tim Legler Combo. I 500 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 3: think their chemistry is great. I think they have a 501 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 3: great combination of analysis and and fun. I don't I 502 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 3: don't know about it. I know both of those guys well, 503 00:24:54,680 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 3: but I'm really liking what I'm hearing from them. Question, Bulls, 504 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 3: without question, are the surprise, But they are what this 505 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,360 Speaker 3: and this is happening. This is the reason that there's 506 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,640 Speaker 3: the issues in Memphis. This is some of what we're 507 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 3: getting from the New York Knicks and what's going on 508 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 3: with them in terms of the rumblings of a little disgruntlement, 509 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 3: is that the game teams have figured out. Look, the 510 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 3: game is so fast. We can't play we can't play 511 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 3: stars thirty five thirty six minutes. We can't play ISO, 512 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 3: and we can't play through the same guys all year 513 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:40,200 Speaker 3: long because the speed of the game and that combination 514 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 3: is going to result in injuries and we're not going 515 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 3: to have those guys at the end of the year. 516 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 3: Allow Jason Catum and so so what teams are doing 517 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 3: as they're playing more of a European style and with 518 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 3: depths and moving the ball and not loading up on 519 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 3: any particular players, and that's the new and that's the 520 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,399 Speaker 3: new recipe in the Chicago Bulls are very much built 521 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:07,919 Speaker 3: for that. 522 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:08,400 Speaker 1: Now. 523 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,159 Speaker 3: I still think that that's a regular season thing. I 524 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 3: think you still need to have that star guy who 525 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,879 Speaker 3: can go get you a bucket when all else fails. 526 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 3: And I don't know that that Bizillis is ready for that, 527 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 3: or or Kobe White and that we haven't seen him yet. 528 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:26,680 Speaker 3: But I don't think they have that piece. But I've 529 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:30,719 Speaker 3: talked to people in the Bulls organization. They're loving the 530 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 3: chemistry that they have. And if you look at their 531 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 3: their their roster or their stats they got, I think 532 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:41,680 Speaker 3: it's eight guys averaging between twelve and twenty three points, 533 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 3: and nobody is taking more than five threes a game. 534 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:51,920 Speaker 3: I think Giddy is averaging Josh Gitty is averaging four 535 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 3: point seven, but they got like eight or nine guys 536 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 3: who are taking at least three a game. So the 537 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 3: distribution is just terrific. And I think that that is 538 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 3: the new formula in the NBA, which is not being 539 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 3: top heavy but having a versatile, deep team. And you know, 540 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 3: the champions always kind of set the template for everybody. 541 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,159 Speaker 3: I think that's what the Oklahoma City Thunder and the 542 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 3: last couple of championship teams have done is demonstrated that 543 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 3: if you want to if you want to be standing 544 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,199 Speaker 3: at the end and have a chance, you obviously have 545 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:29,119 Speaker 3: to have some star power. But You're better off having 546 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 3: a little bit of star power and a lot of 547 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 3: depth than a lot of star power and no depth. 548 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 1: Sow get back to the Sixers with Maxie and Edgecone 549 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 1: leading the way, Joel and was complaining about his twenty 550 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: minutes to night, saying I might as well stay home. 551 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,160 Speaker 1: Well he didn't play. They lost by eleven at Cleveland. 552 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:49,160 Speaker 1: What do you think of this squad? I mean, February 553 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 1: sixth is gonna come awful fast for some of these 554 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:54,920 Speaker 1: squads in terms of trade deadline and trying to offset 555 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:56,360 Speaker 1: some of these big contracts. 556 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,200 Speaker 3: I just I just feel like the Sixers are kind 557 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,360 Speaker 3: of stuck. With embiid and with Paul George. 558 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 5: I think they have some pieces that they can. 559 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 3: Build around going forward, but it's it's a team in transition, 560 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,440 Speaker 3: and I think you're only as good as your best players. 561 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 3: And and you know, like it or not, that still 562 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:20,199 Speaker 3: is embiid And and Paul George. They're the ones who 563 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 3: are going to set the tempo that the guys you're 564 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 3: going to play through if they're on the floor, and 565 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 3: I just I don't believe in their leadership at this point. 566 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,400 Speaker 3: This is a perfect example, like the seventy six ers 567 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 3: are out rolling. You've got young guys that are performing. 568 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,399 Speaker 3: If you take Joel Embiid out of the equation and 569 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 3: you put Steph Curry in that position, Steph Curry is 570 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 3: celebrating the fact that he has young guys that are 571 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 3: that are coming to the four and that are showing 572 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 3: that they can play. Joel Embiid is complaining, complaining about 573 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 3: his minutes, like, dude, read the room, read your history, Like. 574 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:58,240 Speaker 5: What do you I mean? It's just that's that's the 575 00:28:58,320 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 5: kind of stuff that. 576 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 3: Drives me crazy. It's it is tone deaf to who 577 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 3: you've been and where your team has been and what 578 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 3: you're getting from these young guys. You shouldn't be complaining 579 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 3: about your minutes. You should be happy that. 580 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 5: You're you're only having to play twenty minutes. 581 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 3: And your team came out as the record that it has. 582 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 3: I I will stop there before I say more. 583 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:21,760 Speaker 1: No, because I keep going back when you when you 584 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 1: would say last year, I've never seen a guy as 585 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 1: tired shooting free throws as Joel how. 586 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 5: Exactly exactly twenty minutes?

He announced it on social media Wednesday night. 706 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:25,279 Speaker 1: He also posted he partnered with go fund me to 707 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 1: use his fine money for charity. The fine is about 708 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:31,720 Speaker 1: a little bit less than fifteen thousand dollars. Now what happened? 709 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 1: Maybe you followed this, maybe he didn't because it is 710 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,839 Speaker 1: the Panthers, but hey, hey, they're one of the great 711 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 1: surprises of the first half.

Yes, yeah, if you were lucky enough 714 00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:49,239 Speaker 1: to pick him up and say, really, rego dada, he's 715 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 1: a thousand yard guy in Dallas and they said beat it. 716 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 1: So he celebrated his touchdown and third quarter on Sunday 717 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 1: with two pelvic thrusts as teammates stood around him in 718 00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:00,319 Speaker 1: the end zone. And we find out after that's a 719 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,719 Speaker 1: nod to a twenty thirteen Key and Peel sketch where 720 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:07,080 Speaker 1: they joked that two thrusts was acceptable, but three crossed 721 00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 1: the line. It would warrant you a flag. Now apparently 722 00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 1: this this uh, two pumps was enough to get him 723 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 1: a fifteen thousand dollars fine. Now he got a fifteen 724 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,799 Speaker 1: yard penalty front sportsman like conduct on the play. But 725 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 1: now the whole thing, three pumps will get you fined 726 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:26,200 Speaker 1: and two pumps won't. Now we know two pumps will 727 00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 1: get you fined? Will one pump not get you fined? 728 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 4: Now? 729 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:29,799 Speaker 1: Is that a thing? 730 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 6: Now? 731 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,000 Speaker 1: Is it? Basically they had the sketch wrong in twenty thirteen. Yeah, 732 00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:35,319 Speaker 1: but why would you bother with one pump? Man? It's 733 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 1: you still get one pump? Yeah, I does Keeg and 734 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,399 Speaker 1: Michael Key have to pay the fine? You know, how 735 00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:42,920 Speaker 1: cool would it be if Key and Peel paid the 736 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:45,879 Speaker 1: fine for or donated money to go to charity. Tell 737 00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:50,880 Speaker 1: the seventeen on the gofund me like you got fifteen Yeah, yeah, 738 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:52,480 Speaker 1: I mean really, I think you've signed a little bit 739 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:54,920 Speaker 1: of money for that. Go around the locker room and 740 00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:56,880 Speaker 1: tell everybody to cough up a buck like you're in 741 00:36:56,960 --> 00:37:01,719 Speaker 1: reservoir dogs.

And you know, there's really a lot 752 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:35,359 Speaker 1: of leeway, it seems, with with how they interpret the rules. Right. 753 00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:38,920 Speaker 1: You had a guy, uh, aparently you're suspended for the 754 00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:42,359 Speaker 1: fact that you've hip dropped like nine guys. Okay, I'm exaggerating, 755 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:44,360 Speaker 1: but it was enough to warn a suspension out of 756 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:47,120 Speaker 1: hell with it. It's one hundred thousand dollars fine. You 757 00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 1: misled everybody on the injury report as to a you know, 758 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:56,239 Speaker 1: an elite quarterback multi MBP his availability for one hundred 759 00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:59,279 Speaker 1: thousand dollars.
