We're heading east down to Dallas. Yeahoo, And 36 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 5: what's the biggest lake by Dallas? 37 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 2: Question? 38 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 1: Whereas Dallas on the water? 39 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 3: Hey? 40 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 1: Remember when we moved to Atlanta. I thought Atlanta was 41 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 1: on the water. Look, no, it's not. It is Dallas. 42 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,080 Speaker 1: The same thing. You looked it up toass what's the 43 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 1: nearest lake? 44 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 2: Oh? I did? 45 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 6: I did because I was listening to the Ringers podcast 46 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 6: about Clay Thompson leaving and Rajah Bell said, I know 47 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 6: everyone thinks that Golden State's. 48 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 2: Got way more water around it. 49 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 6: Obviously, but but he follows Sean Marion, and Sean Marion 50 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,800 Speaker 6: lives in Dallas, and they've got some nice lakes that 51 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 6: look like the coast. That's what Roja Bell told me. 52 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 6: Then I looked it up and I said number one. 53 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 6: I looked at Sean Marion's Instagram account. I mean, there 54 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 6: was one photo it looked like there was like like 55 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 6: a house that was like right on the water, so 56 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 6: it looked like a cabin. It didn't look all that 57 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 6: you know, it didn't look all that much like a coast, 58 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 6: like a beach. And then then I looked it up 59 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 6: and it really doesn't seem all that watery. I mean 60 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 6: it's like Atlanta. 61 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 2: I think. 62 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: That means there's no water nearby. 63 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 4: Well, there's a good bass fishing nearby. 64 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 5: Guy's going to catch some monsters if he wants to 65 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 5: get out fresh water. 66 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 1: Well, look, we're gonna get into it. We're gonna unpack it. 67 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 2: Here. 68 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 1: Shout out to everyone joining us alive here on YouTube, 69 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 1: some of you for the third time and again twenty seven, 70 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: twenty eight hours.

Yeah, the big big news here. He's 74 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: agreed to a three year, fifty million dollar contract with 75 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: the Dallas Mavericks. Do they have nearby water or breaking 76 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: it down? The deal? 77 00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 6: Great Hubbard. I have to say the name of a 78 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 6: It's called Lake Ray Hubbard. He's got a name like 79 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 6: a person's name, Lake Ray Hubbery. 80 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: It's a scientology lake apparently. But anyway, the deal requires 81 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: a multi team sign and trade scenario that sends the 82 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,280 Speaker 1: Mavericks wing Josh Green to the Hornets and two future 83 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: second round picks to the Dubs. Golden State also creates 84 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 1: a trade exception just shy of sixteen million dollars to 85 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: maybe use in their next move. Is there another move? 86 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 1: What are they doing? But let's actually talk about Clay 87 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 1: Thompson electing to go to Dallas, whether the boat comes 88 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: with him or not, task he will be playing for them, 89 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 1: And yeah, what do you think of the fit and 90 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,279 Speaker 1: how this went down here today with Clay going to Dallas. 91 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 6: I always wonder what Clay was mad at the way 92 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 6: he left, the way he may have been upset with 93 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 6: coming off the bench, this season. He still thinks that 94 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 6: he should be respected and loved and paid the way 95 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 6: some of his teammates were Draymond Green specifically. Maybe he's 96 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,280 Speaker 6: tired of Draymond. I don't know, but I do know 97 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 6: that the MAVs get a very good shooter. They have 98 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 6: needed a third score, that is for sure. He continues 99 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 6: to do that. He's a great catch and shoot guy. 100 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 6: Luca creates the most catch and shoots in the game, 101 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 6: so Clay's going to be hanging and ready to shoot. 102 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 3: Now. 103 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 6: I do think they get a little better offensively, but 104 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 6: I do think they get worse defensively because Clay, like 105 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 6: we talked about on our podcast, Trey said that he's 106 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 6: likely going to start. I said, no, no possible way. 107 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 6: This team just went to the finals. But I'm on 108 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 6: the side now that he probably will start. Now Derek 109 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 6: Jones Junior gone, and I think with Irving Luca and 110 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 6: him starting beside PJ. Washington and Daniel Gafford, I mean, 111 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 6: I think their best perimeter defenders are on the bench, 112 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 6: Najie Marshall and Quentin Grimes probably in Dante exam So 113 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 6: I do think it's different than the team that went 114 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 6: to the freaking finals that turned on in the second 115 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,119 Speaker 6: half when Derrick Jones Junior and Gafford and PJ. 116 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 2: Washington were there three four five. 117 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 6: So that's interesting to me how this team is totally 118 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 6: different offensively, Yeah, but defensively, I do wonder now Nausey 119 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 6: over Derek Jones Junior, that's their difference. Quinton Grimes now 120 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 6: over Josh Green, and now Clay over Tim if you 121 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 6: want to call that, Clay over Tim Hardaway. This team 122 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 6: is damn good offensively, but I wonder if they're still 123 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 6: going to have that great And maybe Clay just did 124 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,720 Speaker 6: a new start and a new boat and a new 125 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:34,239 Speaker 6: lake is gonna be great again. 126 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 2: I don't know. 127 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 1: Sometimes you just need new water. It's as simple as that. TK. 128 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: What do you think, man, Are the Mavericks improved after 129 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 1: this free agency sort of frenzy here, especially adding Klay Thompson. 130 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 5: A lot of fish in the sea, a lot of 131 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 5: wings in big d now, because you're right, three out, 132 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 5: three in and I think kind of the changes will 133 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 5: be negligible because it's all gonna come down to what 134 00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 5: Klay Thompson is willing to accept as a role. Think 135 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 5: think he's at least going to get the first chance 136 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 5: to be the starting third guy the perimeter for the 137 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 5: Dallas Mavericks. But there are going to be some matchups 138 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 5: where Naji Marshall is the better choice, or they want 139 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 5: to go a little bit bigger and bring in Maxi 140 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 5: Kleeba and PJ Washington guard somebody. There are going to 141 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 5: be times when Clay is gonna have to okay, be 142 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 5: okay going to the bench or taking a smaller role 143 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 5: like he had to at the end of his time 144 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 5: with the Warriors. Now that he's in a new situation, 145 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 5: is he able to take that on and see that 146 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 5: as part of his career. We'll find out, But you 147 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 5: would have to be confident that for this to work 148 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 5: out for the Mavericks, because Clay is not the same 149 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 5: defender he was. I don't know if he's a perfect 150 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 5: fit for Dallas' system. Because Clay is such a good 151 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 5: movement guy, and like Tassa is saying, Clay's going to 152 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 5: get a ton of catch and shoot threes. 153 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 4: But he's capable of a lot more. 154 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 5: He's got to find the perfect middle ground of doing 155 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 5: too much, which he sometimes did with the Warriors there 156 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 5: at the end, and also not just standing around on 157 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 5: the perimeter waiting for something to happen. That's gonna be 158 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 5: on Jason Kidd to get the best out of Clay Thompson, 159 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 5: because he can do more than just wait in the corner. 160 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: What's fascinating about all of this is that woe was 161 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: reported many others have that Clay had four year offers 162 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: for more money, but taking less was offset by this 163 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: chance to win his fifth championship, possibly with Dallas. Obviously 164 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: they just went to the finals. They're a good team. 165 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: They have Luca and Kyrie, and they have some you know, 166 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 1: young bigs, and they have talent. And the difference in 167 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 1: state taxes, oh my goodness, it was great to see 168 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 1: state taxes coming back into our lives and there are 169 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: not a lot there in Texas. So wow. This is 170 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 1: sort of wild though, because I thought he was going 171 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: to go to the Lakers. Lebron was calling him. Mike 172 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 1: Gutt sort of says they were one of these teams 173 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,959 Speaker 1: where it was four years. I think Chris Haynes was 174 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 1: reporting that maybe in the sign and trade possibility of 175 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: a Lakers Warriors deal to get Clay to LA, they 176 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: were offering D'Angelo Russell back to the Warriors, and Warriors 177 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: like no Banks, We've got gum. So you know, this 178 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 1: is an interesting wrinkle, wrinkle that it was the three year, 179 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: fifty million dollar deal task and not more years and 180 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 1: potentially more money for a guy obviously getting up there 181 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: in age and has had previous injuries that took him 182 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: out for two years. I think this part's fascinating. 183 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 6: From it, it is fascinating. It's a little durant, like 184 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 6: joining the Warriors, joining a team that just lost in 185 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 6: the NBA Finals, and Clay just being you know, pretty 186 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 6: damn close, and maybe he feels a little differently about 187 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 6: having his role lessened. You know, as trade brought up, 188 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 6: there are gonna be different scenarios where they're gonna want 189 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 6: a great perimeter defender on the floor. And I know 190 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 6: Luca is already working out. There's videos of him doing 191 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 6: some chest press. 192 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 3: Cool. 193 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 2: Great. 194 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 6: I don't think that next necessarily makes me a better defender. 195 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 6: Look who's starting on the perimeter in Luca, Kyrie and him. 196 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 2: I just think it's it's. 197 00:09:56,320 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 6: So different from that regard but but but but maybe 198 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 6: the fact that it's different that he hasn't won four 199 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 6: titles there and has given his heart and soul to 200 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 6: the team. Makes it a little bit of a different 201 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 6: locker room. But it is interesting when you get into 202 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 6: the money. If some team was willing to offer him 203 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 6: four years. When you look back at the reported offer 204 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,559 Speaker 6: he had twelve years ago to be extend our s 205 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 6: excuse me, twelve months ago to be extended for two 206 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 6: additional years, that's forty eight million dollars he would have 207 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 6: gotten in that contract versus the fifty he's getting with Dallas. 208 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 6: So I guess it wasn't about the dollars with Clay 209 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 6: because he really would have got paid the same of money. 210 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 6: It's just about how it all went down, how it 211 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 6: all shook down with the ownership there, and the ownership 212 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 6: was looking towards the future, and it wasn't making Clay 213 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 6: the part of the rotation that I guess Dallas will. 214 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 6: It sure seems like Jason Kid's like everybody else will scrap, 215 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 6: You're going to be our guy, And they've put a 216 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:57,719 Speaker 6: lot of stock into Clay being great offensively. 217 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, when you compare it to obviously the extent he 218 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: was you know, offered, reportedly offered two for forty eight, 219 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,959 Speaker 1: then what he takes here, it's not really the money. 220 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: So it's either Trey, Hey, I don't like how you're 221 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 1: handling me and how you're you know, treating me as 222 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: a legend to your franchise. It's that or it's just 223 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: and this is the case with some people. Hey, I 224 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,199 Speaker 1: just want a fresh start. I just want to go 225 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: try somewhere else. And maybe I'm loved a little bit more, 226 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: maybe I'm given more of an opportunity. Maybe i think 227 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:30,680 Speaker 1: the team is better. There's that part of the equation. 228 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 1: The Matricks are better than the Warriors. That is a 229 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: fair part for a guy to leave and go to 230 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: another team. So I wonder if it's a bit from 231 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: Colin A, a bit from Colin B. Who knows, maybe 232 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: we learn more, but yeah, he's definitely looking at Dallas 233 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 1: as his best chance to maybe win another title and 234 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: oh yeah, get the three year deal and oh yeah, 235 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: maybe start under you know, alongside Luca and Kyrie. 236 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 5: Well, I think first and foremost that comes down to 237 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 5: was Clay willing to leave Golden State, And obviously the 238 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,199 Speaker 5: answer was yes. And to me, the reason that that 239 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 5: happened is because everybody else got paid and when it 240 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 5: finally came time for it to be Klay Thompson. 241 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 4: They're like, actually, we're only going to go in two years, 242 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 4: twenty four million a year. 243 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 5: Draymond got paid, Wiggins got paid, Jordan Poole got paid, 244 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 5: everybody except for Klay Thompson. Now all of those deals 245 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 5: were before the first and second Apron came into play, 246 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 5: So Golden State can come from a different angle saying 247 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 5: the reality of the CBA has changed, which means we 248 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,839 Speaker 5: need to get production from our big dollar people. I 249 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 5: don't know, it's a tough spot to be in, and 250 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:33,959 Speaker 5: that's why Bob Myers decided to take a media job 251 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 5: rather than being the GM. Now this is on Mike 252 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 5: Dunleavy having to blow it up when it came time 253 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 5: for Clay to pick his next team. I think it 254 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 5: did become I can win more easily with Dallas than 255 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 5: I can with the Lakers. 256 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's possible. Like again, this guy missed basically two 257 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: entire seasons with a torn acl and a torn achilles tendon. Still, 258 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: you know, got back, became a productive player, played a 259 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: lot of games this past year, which is sort of 260 00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 1: like gets forgotten. I mean, pretty impressive to play seventy 261 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: seven games, you know, a couple of years after all 262 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 1: those terrible injuries. But like when that was all happening, 263 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: the Warriors gave him a fat ass contract and he 264 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: even said, like, damn man, you just gave a huge 265 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,079 Speaker 1: deal to a guy who tore his ACL. So there 266 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:18,680 Speaker 1: was of course respect from the Warriors to Clay, but 267 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: I guess whatever has happened or then he. 268 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 5: Went out and won him another championship with the Clays 269 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 5: argument right like yeah, okay, yeah, you did it last time, 270 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 5: why not this time? 271 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 1: Yeah? And yeah, the Warriors, excuse me, The MAVs are 272 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,680 Speaker 1: getting a guy that is still a three point you know, 273 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 1: elite shooter, whether he's starting, whether he's coming off the bench. 274 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: Last year was like a down year for him, which 275 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: is funny because it's still like basically thirty nine percent 276 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: and the mass. 277 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 2: Nine threes a game. 278 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:49,959 Speaker 6: That's That's something that that while watching the Finals, we 279 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,680 Speaker 6: all wanted somebody like PJ. Washington to take above the 280 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 6: break threes or any of anybody, Yeah, anybody, and this 281 00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 6: guy's obviously going to be able to do that. 282 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 1: Well. I think the Mavericks, like across the season, we're 283 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: like one of the best three point shooting teams. In 284 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: the league, but it did dip after the trade deadline 285 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 1: and they made those moves and they started to focus 286 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 1: on defense. And this goes back to what you were 287 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 1: saying tasks. Yeah, they add one of the greatest three 288 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 1: point shooes ever, but is it gonna like, you know, 289 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 1: take them down and notch defensively? And that's what they 290 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 1: were winning games, That's when they went on the run, 291 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: that's what they were doing in the playoffs. They were 292 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 1: winning games more or not with the defense. So you know, 293 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: how do you hide him, how does he slot in 294 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 1: or And I know he's getting up there in eight, 295 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: so it's unlikely, But like, how motivated is he to 296 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 1: sort of stick it to the Warriors? You know what 297 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: I mean, like show them I still got something left 298 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: and I can lock in a little bit more defensively 299 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: in addition to what I can bring you on the 300 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: other end and knock down threes. I think that's probably, 301 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't think that's likely because again, 302 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 1: he's just after the injuries. He just lost an athletic 303 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: step on that end where he was really good. And 304 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 1: I think he made an All NBA team if I 305 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 1: remember correctly, But those days are probably long gone. 306 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 6: Yeah, it is interesting to think about what the front 307 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 6: office in the ownership is thinking with the second apron 308 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 6: and the money and where it's going, because years ago 309 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 6: when they did pay Wingots and Pool and obviously Draymond, 310 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 6: there was the idea that the money would be endless 311 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 6: in Golden State. I mean, they just keep winning championships, 312 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 6: they build a new arena. But Joel cub I guess 313 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 6: his Galaxy brain and maybe that's why the Celtics are 314 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 6: selling themselves here, selling their team, because the money just 315 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 6: ain't easy as easy I should say anymore. But at 316 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 6: the same time, they are good. They just released a 317 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 6: statement on Clay Thompson and it's basically matching all and 318 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 6: everything that he's achieved, the championships and all that Game six. 319 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 2: Heroics, and then. 320 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 6: Clay's legacy will live on forever and we look forward 321 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 6: to the day we can retire his number eleven jersey 322 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 6: at Chase Center, where he will join a host of 323 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 6: Warriors Immortals. Those who helped shape this recent dynasty himself 324 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 6: included Warriors and Mortals. 325 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 4: That's one of my favorite Marvel franchises. 326 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna say, was that one good I 327 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 1: can't remember. There's too many of them. 328 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, too hard to keep track of where they were 329 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 5: going with a plot in that one, I think suddenly 330 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 5: something came out of the ocean. 331 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: So the MAVs off season so far to go back 332 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 1: to them out Tim Hardaway junior, Derek Jones junior, and 333 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 1: Josh Green, who is going to Charlotte and tass I 334 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: know you love yourself some Josh Green, but he's gone. 335 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 1: In Klay Thompson, in Nausey Marshall, and in Quentin Grimes. 336 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 1: It is one of these like, Okay, they're sort of 337 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 1: just changing some things. I think overall it's better. I 338 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 1: think that is a pretty good offseason for a team 339 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: that just went to the championship. But do you agree 340 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 1: or disagreed? Try? 341 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think ultimately it's probably a lateral move. 342 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,239 Speaker 4: Like some of the guys that Dallas got are better. 343 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 5: At some things than the guys they sent out were, 344 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 5: but they're gonna miss some of the things the old 345 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:06,680 Speaker 5: guys did, and mostly Derek Jones junior point of attack defense. 346 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,119 Speaker 5: I think that being said, it's pretty easy to see 347 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,120 Speaker 5: a world where Klay Thompson hits a monster shot off 348 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,359 Speaker 5: a pass from Luka Doncich and they're screaming in each 349 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 5: other's face, drool flying everywhere. It looks disgusting, but you're 350 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 5: loving it because it reminds you of the good. 351 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 4: Old days with the Splash Brothers. 352 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:25,120 Speaker 5: That's maybe a higher ceiling with Klay Thompson out there, 353 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 5: just for the way he can catch fire and take 354 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 5: over for a quarter. 355 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 4: But you know, over the course. 356 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 5: Of eighty two games in a regular season, it probably 357 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 5: plays out about the same way the Western Conference, with 358 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 5: the way teams are beefing up, some teams going down 359 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 5: a little bit in the standings. Once again, it's gonna 360 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 5: come down to matchups, just like it did in this 361 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 5: year's playoffs. 362 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 1: Tass, do you have a favorite Klay Thompson like memory 363 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,879 Speaker 1: of him with the Golden State Warriors game, funny anecdote, 364 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 1: you know, performance, whatever does anything like immediately pop into 365 00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,199 Speaker 1: your brain because this is the end of like an 366 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 1: iconic player. Of course, we've covered this leap for a 367 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: long time. He's been there the entire time, and now 368 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,680 Speaker 1: after thirteen seasons leaving with the four championships, But what 369 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:07,920 Speaker 1: comes to mind for you? 370 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, when you said the moments, you know, you think 371 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 6: on the court. But there's lots of funny moments too. 372 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 6: I mean on the court, it's probably twenty sixteen game six, 373 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 6: able to bring his team back to beat okayc in 374 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 6: that conference final. I mean there's so many you know, 375 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,639 Speaker 6: the fifty seven point game, like there's there's lots. But 376 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:32,359 Speaker 6: then just signing toasters and just you know, being being 377 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 6: play like China Clay was a thing because he was 378 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 6: had so much fun in the offseason. 379 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 2: So both sides, both sides. 380 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,679 Speaker 1: Man, yeah, on and off the court. I was sharing 381 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 1: on Twitter, It's like, oh yeah, remember when he was 382 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:53,439 Speaker 1: on local television news in New York City commenting on scaffolding. 383 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:58,199 Speaker 1: Just get starts on scaffolding in New York. It's a 384 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: pretty funny moment. So you know, goes to the MAVs. 385 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,679 Speaker 1: But man, five hundred and eighteen wins in the regular 386 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 1: season in playoffs for the trio of Curry, Clay Draymond Green, 387 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 1: that's like six the most all time. They have nearly 388 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 1: one hundred playoff wins. With those three, that's the third 389 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 1: most by a trio. Six finals appearance, four championships. You know, 390 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,160 Speaker 1: that's tied the four championships with Duncan Genobili and Tony 391 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,359 Speaker 1: Parker for the most titles by an all NBA trio 392 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,199 Speaker 1: over the last fifty seasons. It's it's iconic. It's an 393 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 1: iconic trio there there in the Bay, and now one 394 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,159 Speaker 1: of them's gone, and it's gonna be weird seeing the 395 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 1: Mass play the Warriors. It just this and it'll be 396 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:39,879 Speaker 1: fun as hell. And I hope they make it an 397 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 1: opening week game or maybe a Christmas Day game. I'm 398 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 1: not sure, but it'll be one of the marquee games. 399 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 4: Tray gotta be. 400 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 5: A Christmas game. Seems too good to meet Klay Thompson 401 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,880 Speaker 5: coming back to the Bay. I would have to imagine 402 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 5: they do it in Golden State for that one. That one, 403 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 5: so maybe they can open the season as well. But yeah, 404 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 5: it's gonna be a exciting, gonna be weird. I just 405 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 5: hope that Clay Thompson does get to have some moments 406 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 5: with Dallas rather than it just being, you know, the 407 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 5: end part of a guy's career that we don't really 408 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 5: think back fondly on. 409 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, let's talk about this angle of this whole Clay 410 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: going to Dallas too. Now that he's off the board, 411 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 1: what are the Lakers' options, Tash, do you have a 412 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:21,919 Speaker 1: thought on this? 413 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 6: No, As Trey was saying about the Western Conference teams 414 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 6: and how it's all shaking down the teams that lost 415 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 6: guys like the Clippers losing Paul George obviously, the Wars, 416 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:37,640 Speaker 6: Warriors losing Clay they're just grabbing these little parts, these 417 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 6: little pieces to help them out and it probably ain't 418 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,440 Speaker 6: gonna be enough. And that sure feels like what's going 419 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 6: on with the Lakers. The name that's out there, it's 420 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 6: still Demart Rosen. That's the one that's the most exciting. 421 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 6: I stop and I hesitate when I say that, because 422 00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 6: I automatically think, will this team be one of the 423 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 6: best teams in the Western Conference? Win Demard Rose? If 424 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 6: DeMar de Rosen joins them, I still wouldn't take them 425 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 6: over a bunch of several teams in the Western Conference. 426 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 6: So yeah, it's becoming it's it's becoming. Yeah, Like the 427 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 6: Warriors and Lakers just doesn't seem don't seem to have 428 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 6: it along with the Clippers. They just seem like they 429 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 6: are on that second tier now, yeah, third tier if 430 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 6: you want to call it that. With the Warriors especially. 431 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 5: They're a playing team. Again, the Lakers right now are 432 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 5: a playing team. Lebron said, I'll take a pay cut 433 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 5: if we can get an impact player. 434 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 4: And nobody bit like. 435 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,679 Speaker 5: Luca or Clay is choosing to go play in a 436 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:42,120 Speaker 5: Lebron James setup. Kyrie Irving is the co star. There's 437 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 5: a big ball handling forward who controls the entire offense. 438 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 5: They've got shooters, they've got defense, Klay said. Dallas is 439 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 5: closer to a title right now because the Lakers haven't 440 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 5: done anything yet today, nor really have the Warriors, though 441 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 5: they did save things a little bit getting d Anthony Mountain. 442 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,119 Speaker 5: But yeah, it's a and then a disappointing start of 443 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,160 Speaker 5: the offseason I think for the Lakers, which is why 444 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,400 Speaker 5: they have to be in on DeRozan right now. They 445 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 5: need something besides bringing in Brownie James with the fifty 446 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 5: fifth pick and Dalton Connects wearing the Connect four jersey. 447 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, DeRozan is, like, I mean, he's getting down to 448 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 1: one of the last names as a potential non taxpayer 449 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 1: mid level exception candidate that the Lakers could get that 450 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: maybe Lebron would be willing to take less for because 451 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,880 Speaker 1: otherwise all those guys that he had sort of pitched, 452 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 1: hey you get a Valentotis, Hey you get a Clay, 453 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: Hey you get so and so maybe I'll take the 454 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 1: pay cut. And it's like nope, nope, nope. So we're 455 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: down to DeRozan. There are other shooters like Gary Trent, Junior, 456 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 1: Buddy Healed, Like nothing that's really gonna move the needle 457 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,639 Speaker 1: all that much that maybe the Lakers could sort of 458 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 1: salvage this. But yeah, they basically once they signed Lebron, 459 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 1: they got their fifteen guys too. That's the whole other part. 460 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: They would have to like, you know, package some of 461 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:58,919 Speaker 1: those guys together to create an empty roster spot. So 462 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 1: it's are you disappointing? Especially when we saw Lebron saying, hey, 463 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,159 Speaker 1: I'll do this if we can improve the team, and 464 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 1: they and they haven't tasked. But let's get to the 465 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 1: de Anthony Milton signing one year, twelve point eight million, 466 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 1: he's going to the Warriors. You excited by that? At all? 467 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:17,199 Speaker 2: Tasks? 468 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 1: After of course they lose Clay and look, they might 469 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:21,879 Speaker 1: not be done. They're still trying that. I know a 470 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,199 Speaker 1: lot of lowry marketing sort of trade rumors. Could they 471 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 1: put together a package for him, But what do you 472 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 1: think about Milton. 473 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 6: I do think the Philadelphia seventy six ers would like 474 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 6: to have him. He is a guy who has the 475 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 6: perfect playoff type of guy you can just fill in. 476 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 6: But then as far as the Warriors go, this team 477 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:51,159 Speaker 6: is a team that is going to definitely, definitely be 478 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 6: all about Steph Curry because beyond that, what is there 479 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 6: There's Aaron Wiggins who has become a totally different player, 480 00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 6: and there is the potential of Jonathan kaminga Andrews. 481 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 1: You got the wrong Wiggins. 482 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, Oh excuse me? Did I say Aaron Wiggins at 483 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 6: this time at night? It's maybe it's because the shows 484 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 6: are twenty nine hours apart, but really it's Wiggins, Kamiga 485 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 6: and Pods. 486 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:14,400 Speaker 3: That's it. 487 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 6: And so, you know, no disrespect to Dream Angry, but 488 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 6: I'm talking about this team that is supposed to be 489 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 6: rallying around together. It ain't gonna be d Anthony Melton 490 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:27,439 Speaker 6: that brings them up into this different stratosphere. I just 491 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 6: said Aaron Wiggins, think about the team that he's on. 492 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 6: And Okay, see in Minnesota, and obviously Denver still has 493 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,880 Speaker 6: to be respected and Dallas like they are in It's 494 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 6: it's a different world than Golden State. I mean, I 495 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 6: don't know what Steph's feeling over there, but it can't 496 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 6: be good because this is gonna be a pretty pretty 497 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 6: bleak time for him. I mean, it's really as bleak 498 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 6: as it was when he first joined the team, you know, 499 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 6: when it was a different era. It was like him 500 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 6: and Montelis. It really hasn't been this bad in a 501 00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:57,440 Speaker 6: long time. 502 00:24:57,920 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 1: M know, what do you think? TK? 503 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think Melton is a kind of a fine 504 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 5: save for losing Klay Thompson. They literally are getting two 505 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 5: second round draft pack picks back for Klay Thompson. I 506 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 5: was surprised that they didn't want Josh Green back in 507 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:17,160 Speaker 5: the deal for Klay Thompson this, you know, the way 508 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 5: with Josh Green ended up in Charlotte. I thought that 509 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,879 Speaker 5: Josh Green would be okay, you know, next to Steph Curry. 510 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 5: But yeah, this team isn't good enough right now, which 511 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 5: is why they have to hope that they can come 512 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 5: through with some kind of hail Mary for Lowry markin 513 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 5: and doesn't seem likely to me, but at this point, 514 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,639 Speaker 5: the Warriors and the Lakers are running out of ways 515 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 5: to get a lot better with these stars that are 516 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 5: in the late late prime years of their career. If 517 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:43,919 Speaker 5: you want to make one more run at a championship 518 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 5: with either Steph or Lebron, the teams they have around 519 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 5: him right now just aren't good enough, and the players 520 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 5: that are available probably don't take them over the top. 521 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it is funny that they're both like in 522 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: a weird way jockeying for that position and maybe guys 523 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 1: to make the move for or even like, hey, no, 524 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:03,680 Speaker 1: we don't want to send you Klay Thompson because that's 525 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 1: gonna help you, or this idea that we've heard for 526 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 1: a while, you know, Draymond Green eventually teaming up with 527 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: Lebron and so we don't want to do that. That's 528 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: going to help you, hurt us and all this. Yeah, 529 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,640 Speaker 1: this is like depressing if you were a Steph Curry fan. 530 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:19,880 Speaker 1: This has been a brutal, brutal free agency, Like they've 531 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:23,399 Speaker 1: got nothing. I'm sorry. The Anthony Melton he's fine. I 532 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 1: know he was injured, so you can almost like throw 533 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 1: away this last year. But like he is he is 534 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 1: Defensively he's okay, but he is not that good. He's 535 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,680 Speaker 1: just he's not a score by any means no. 536 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 4: Just like, guy, he's just a guy. 537 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 1: He's fine, like you're eighth or ninth guy. But like, 538 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 1: I think he's a little overrated personally. But anyway, they 539 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 1: got him here. It's a very obviously short deal. It's 540 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 1: a cheap deal. I get that, but yeah, like is 541 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,439 Speaker 1: stuff going on behind the scenes? Are they talking to 542 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 1: Steph like, hey man, you know we're at the end 543 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 1: of this. We'll try and get you to somewhere. I 544 00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 1: don't know, it would not even be considered. 545 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 4: There's a got any suns you want drafted? 546 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:04,160 Speaker 1: Yeah? 547 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 3: Yeah? 548 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 1: How old are your kids? I mean, are they good 549 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 1: to go? I've seen them chuck it from deep Let's 550 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 1: get them in here. Uh yeah. It's it's just sort 551 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,439 Speaker 1: of sad that this feels the way it's going. And 552 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: I guess I don't know they come into next season. 553 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 1: You hope KAMINGA pops. You hope TJD pops. But that 554 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 1: is just far fetched to the point where you can compete, 555 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:26,679 Speaker 1: like you said, tasks with all these other teams in 556 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 1: the West. 557 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 2: I just don't see it now, I do not see it. 558 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 6: And I guess they were the only team that was 559 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 6: willing to offer twelve point eight million ford Anthony Melton, 560 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,360 Speaker 6: because you know, I am looking back at the six 561 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:44,640 Speaker 6: Yers and wondering if I over evaluated Anthony Melton, because 562 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 6: there's some there's some good times, and he is forty 563 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 6: one percent shooter from three. But because they're paying three 564 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 6: guys the max. Beyond that, it's Uber making about eight 565 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 6: million at the highest level. Then you know, going downward, 566 00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 6: it's Paul Reid, Andre Drum and Eric Gordon and Ricky Council. 567 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 3: So that's it. That's all they have. 568 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 6: And so I do think they would have liked the 569 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:10,359 Speaker 6: Anthony Melton, but I guess the Warriors outbid him. I 570 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,639 Speaker 6: opened the Sixers, and you would think that there is 571 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 6: something else in the works if they're right willing to 572 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 6: pay the Anthony Melton, or maybe they're just like thinking 573 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 6: that maybe it'll happen, you know, five six months or 574 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:26,639 Speaker 6: now before the trade deadline. That's that's what it feels 575 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 6: like for Dunleavy. They don't have it right now, that's 576 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 6: for sure. 577 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:35,920 Speaker 1: Look, there's no doubt Wiggans suddenly turning into an absolutely 578 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 1: atrocious contract hurts the Warriors and trying to trade them. 579 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: They just like gave up on the Chris Paul of 580 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 1: it all. They're like, ah, you know what, just wave them. 581 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 1: We're not we don't find something that we like. And 582 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: it's like now they're just in this sort of like 583 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 1: tough spot here. I like, I'm with you, TK, I 584 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 1: like you hear the lowry market and rumors, it's like 585 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,640 Speaker 1: for what, like what I mean, they don't even have 586 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: all that much draft capital like to throw at the 587 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 1: and even then, like would you I don't know, is 588 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 1: Lowry Marketing gonna be like the game changer to like 589 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: save the Warriors. 590 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 2: I don't. 591 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: I don't think so. 592 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 5: I mean, I like Marketing's fit with a lot of teams, 593 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 5: and he would obviously be great on the Warriors as 594 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,479 Speaker 5: a big who can shoot and just gets a lot 595 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 5: of three pointers up. You know, he thrives playing in 596 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 5: a five out system. They would do something similar I 597 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 5: think in Golden State. But also he's the guy that 598 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 5: literally every team that's a contender right now is interested in, 599 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 5: and a team like the Thunder if they wanted to, 600 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 5: they could easily beat a Warriors off, or the Houston 601 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 5: Rockets that they wanted to could beat a Warriors off 602 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 5: or something like that. So it just doesn't seem likely 603 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 5: to me that there's a deal to be done with 604 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 5: the Jazz for marketing unless there's somebody that Utah really likes, 605 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 5: like if there are big communa backers. But if the 606 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 5: Warriors are serious about trying to win a title, like 607 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 5: everybody should be on the table trade wise, except for 608 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 5: I'm sure Stephen Draymond, and you know Draymond just because 609 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 5: he's a staph guy. But Steph isn't like putting a 610 00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 5: ton of pressure on the Golden State Warriors front office 611 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 5: the way that Lebron has throughout his career, and that 612 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 5: makes you wonder how the things are gonna end here. 613 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:15,959 Speaker 5: Is it going to be like you know, Kobe Bryant 614 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 5: on the Lakers where the team is just trying to 615 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 5: win forty one games. 616 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 4: And come out to see the Steph Show. 617 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 5: There was fun moments for Kobe during that era, but 618 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 5: not all of them. 619 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: That's funny you said that. I tweeted, Hey, if this 620 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: is sort of the Warriors iteration here, Steph go for 621 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 1: one hundred and one points in a game next year, 622 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,720 Speaker 1: like that should be literally they should just lean into 623 00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 1: like the hilarity of like, hey, Steph, shoot a three 624 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 1: every time down the floor, ninety three point attempts in 625 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 1: this game. Let's go get that Will Chamberwlin record. I 626 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: mean it does it feels like that. But he's like 627 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: still so good like Kobe was at the end of 628 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 1: his career, Like you know, this was the end of 629 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: the line. This is still Steph is like a top 630 00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 1: ten player I think still in the NBA right I 631 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 1: think he's bored a line top ten players. So it's 632 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 1: like you still want to like put guys around him 633 00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: that can give him a chance and like he gets 634 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 1: to it just like Lebron, like, hey, get me to 635 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 1: the playoffs, man, and you got me and we always 636 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: got a chance to obviously win for series. But right 637 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 1: now this has been a really really rough sort of 638 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 1: offseason here or free agency period here for. 639 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 2: Me. Yeah. 640 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 6: Well, if you have from the just to play Devil's advocate, 641 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 6: this team obviously underachieved last year. They were not a 642 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 6: playoff team, but a huge part of that was just 643 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 6: Draymond Green not playing because he couldn't stop getting suspended 644 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 6: over and over and over again. Choke one man, you know, 645 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 6: call a referee something inappropriate another time. So the Devil's 646 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 6: Advocate play is if he plays all eighty two games 647 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 6: with Steph Curry, this team literally could be a playoff team, 648 00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:00,600 Speaker 6: I guess because they will play with some Tennasy's heart, 649 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 6: but he's not reinventing Andrew Wigans, and I don't know 650 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 6: what he's doing with Kumiga, mos Moody and Pajemski. They 651 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 6: still have to make another big move, but I guess 652 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 6: all that to be said, I guess they still think 653 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 6: they're one player away, which I guess could happen, but 654 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 6: it doesn't seem that way. 655 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: That player will not be Zach Lavine. I'll tell you 656 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 1: that much. All right, Let's move to the Celtics here. 657 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 1: The Celtic's had a busy day. Man, Holy crap. They 658 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: are locking in Jason Tatum on a record deal, finalizing 659 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:37,200 Speaker 1: a five year, three hundred and fourteen million dollars super 660 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 1: maximum contract extension with the team through the twenty nine 661 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 1: thirty season. The deal, once is finalized, will be the 662 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 1: largest in NBA history. The specific figure, it's an estimate 663 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: based on the future calorie SAP but salary cap. But 664 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,240 Speaker 1: you see here Bobby Marks with the graphic of all 665 00:32:54,280 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 1: graphics dropping just rubber bandcap coins yeah, and bags of 666 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 1: cash and coins. But he will be the first seventy 667 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 1: million dollar player in all likelihood and NBA history. Once 668 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 1: you get into that final twenty nine to thirty season, 669 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 1: you know the Celtics weren't done obviously. They signed Derek 670 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 1: White to a four year, one hundred and twenty six 671 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 1: million dollar contract ascension. They gave it a lot of money. 672 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 1: Here today, TK, none of this is surprising, but it's 673 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 1: still funny to see those numbers. I gotta be honest, 674 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 1: when you see them on a screen. 675 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:31,719 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean a seventy million dollar a year contract 676 00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:36,720 Speaker 5: is pretty wild to see. And I mean after we've 677 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 5: seen the way that the Paul George negotiations went with 678 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 5: the Clippers, how things ended with Klay Thompson and Golden State, 679 00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 5: to see both of these teams basically being like, we 680 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 5: gotta be careful with the second apron. We got to 681 00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 5: maintain flexibility going forward. The Denver Nuggets lost the starter 682 00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 5: from a championship team. You know, everybody is cutting payroll 683 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 5: to maintain flexibility. And then the Celtics come into today 684 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 5: and said, we have an awesome top five players, so 685 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 5: we're gonna sign all of them to contracts that total 686 00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 5: nearly a billion dollars unbelievable stuff. That's one way to 687 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 5: team build. You got deep pockets, pay for your team 688 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 5: that's incredible, and then sell it to the next guy 689 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 5: who actually has to pay. 690 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,799 Speaker 1: Here's what you do. You give out basically half a 691 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:29,279 Speaker 1: billion dollars worth of contracts today for the Tatum and 692 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,200 Speaker 1: Derek White, and then you turn around immediately and say, 693 00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,640 Speaker 1: we will be selling this franchise for I don't know, 694 00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 1: five to six seven billion. That's just smart business right there. 695 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:43,319 Speaker 1: But task thoughts on Tatum, thoughts on Derek White, and 696 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:45,600 Speaker 1: if you want to, like obviously chime in on the 697 00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 1: surprising news that they are for sale in theory of 698 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:49,439 Speaker 1: the Celtics at least the majority stake. 699 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 6: Yes, it is crazy to see those numbers for Jason Tatum, 700 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 6: and I guess the owners went to them after Jalen 701 00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 6: Brown won the Finals MVP and they said, I don't 702 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 6: worry about now Finals MVP. We're gonna pay you a 703 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,719 Speaker 6: cool three hundred mil very very soon, and then we're 704 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 6: gonna sell the team because you know, we peaked, we 705 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 6: won a title, and then we're gonna just go make 706 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:15,439 Speaker 6: some money after we spend all the money. So yeah, 707 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 6: kind of out of nowhere that with Grossbeck decided from 708 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:21,800 Speaker 6: our perspective anyways, that maybe he was thinking about for 709 00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 6: a while. But yeah, listen, I love Bobby Mark's design. 710 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 6: There the simplicity of the graphic, just keeping it simple. 711 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:34,800 Speaker 6: But we see every single dollar and how much Jason 712 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:37,960 Speaker 6: Tatum is going to make. I wanted to go a 713 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 6: little bit further, because they do get paid every second 714 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 6: week through the regular from the beginning of the regular 715 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:46,440 Speaker 6: season to the end of the regular season. Let us 716 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 6: know how much this seventy one and forty six and 717 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 6: nine hundred and fourteen dollars is divided into his twenty 718 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:55,759 Speaker 6: checks or whatever it is not. 719 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,600 Speaker 1: I mean, we are knocking on the door of a 720 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:02,560 Speaker 1: guy making a million dollar every time he plays. Every 721 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:03,879 Speaker 1: time he plays a game, there will be a guy 722 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,439 Speaker 1: making a million dollars. Like I don't know, shake could 723 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 1: be close, I guess in theory. As this continues to 724 00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:16,920 Speaker 1: go up, so crazy, could you guys hear that? 725 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:21,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, something crazy just happened. 726 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 1: Playing Greek music. It was for looking at Nick Page, Well, 727 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,920 Speaker 1: I was looking at how bad it actually shoots, that 728 00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 1: is what I was looking at. 729 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 6: But I thought it was like a little rocket taken off. 730 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 2: So that's what I heard. I heard no Greek music. 731 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 1: Oh maybe you didn't hear it, Trey. I don't know 732 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 1: what you were hearing that anyway. 733 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:48,680 Speaker 4: Yeah that's what I heard. 734 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:58,440 Speaker 1: Oh no, literally like it was like that's what started 735 00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:01,399 Speaker 1: playing in my cands. It was basketball reference. I don't 736 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:03,320 Speaker 1: know why they wanted me to smash a plate or 737 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:06,879 Speaker 1: something for the Celtics maybe being up for sale. But yeah, 738 00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:08,360 Speaker 1: that's Wick Grossbeck. 739 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:12,360 Speaker 2: Go ahead, that's my ring tone. So maybe my ringtone. 740 00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:19,720 Speaker 6: Oh good, you saw dancing those cool Greek jerseys. 741 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:19,880 Speaker 2: Though. 742 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 6: Those Greek jerseys look amazing for their pre Olympic tournament. 743 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 2: They play yet money, no tomorrow. 744 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,400 Speaker 1: Okay, okay, it all starts. He was dancing to He 745 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 1: was dancing to Kendricks not like us, So was he not? 746 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:32,400 Speaker 2: I think yes he was. 747 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, he was pumped. So Wick grouseback. Yeah. The majority 748 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: owner and governor of the Celtics expected to remain team 749 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:41,400 Speaker 1: governor through twenty twenty eight, according to the statement of 750 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 1: the Celtics released, but a majority interest of the group 751 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,440 Speaker 1: is expected to be sold in twenty four or early 752 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:50,919 Speaker 1: twenty five. Like this does have a lot of people 753 00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,359 Speaker 1: like raising eyebrows after what went on with the sort 754 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 1: of Cuban in the Mavericks sort of saying he was 755 00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:58,439 Speaker 1: going to be the governor though he sold his majority steak, 756 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,239 Speaker 1: but then seems like he's not, but. 757 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:01,759 Speaker 4: Maybe he is. 758 00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:04,719 Speaker 1: It's really sort of confusing, and then of what's going 759 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,719 Speaker 1: on with Minnesota and sort of that Glenn Taylor and 760 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 1: Alex Rodriguez and Mark Laurie sort of deal. So we'll 761 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,440 Speaker 1: see here. Anyway, the point is they bought this team. 762 00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:19,440 Speaker 1: The Boston Basketball Partners Group what a name, founded by Grossbeck. 763 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:22,400 Speaker 1: They bought the Celtics for three hundred and sixty million 764 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 1: dollars in two thousand and two, and what I'm seeing 765 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:32,359 Speaker 1: is it's like evaluated at at least five billion. I 766 00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 1: think it would get more than that. Personally. This is 767 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,120 Speaker 1: one of the most storied franchises in all of sports. 768 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:40,360 Speaker 1: So yeah, I guess they're selling high TK. If this 769 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 1: is for sale, it's gonna be like eight million dollars. 770 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:45,719 Speaker 5: And they've won two championships in the time that they 771 00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 5: owned the team. 772 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:48,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, right, right, right right. 773 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:49,680 Speaker 5: So at the end of it all, they're like, yeah, 774 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 5: let's go crazy we'll pay everybody. Yeah, party never stops, 775 00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:55,399 Speaker 5: all right, see you guys later. 776 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:58,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but I mean in a weird way that 777 00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:04,200 Speaker 1: could diminish your I guess total evaluation for the franchise. 778 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 1: Like some new owner's gonna come in and be like, 779 00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:07,799 Speaker 1: how much are we paying in tax? 780 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:08,640 Speaker 4: Excuse me? 781 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 1: Excuse me? We got a billion dollar roster? 782 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 4: What Jalen Brown in Atlanta? 783 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:22,080 Speaker 1: Yeah? Eventually, eventually we had some other notable signings. Today. Uh, 784 00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 1: let's get to the guys. I'll just lump them all together. 785 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 1: Going to other teams, we had Delon Wright going to 786 00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:32,640 Speaker 1: the Milwaukee Bucks one year basically three million dollars, maybe 787 00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 1: a little bit more than that. Drew you Banks go 788 00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:38,239 Speaker 1: into the Suns two years ten million? Do excuse me? 789 00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:42,399 Speaker 1: He's going to the Jazz. I have that wrong? Take 790 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,759 Speaker 1: that off the screen. God damnit, Elder. 791 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:47,400 Speaker 3: Drew U. 792 00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:48,920 Speaker 1: Banks is a game changer. 793 00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:52,839 Speaker 4: Some sick oh is just absolutely furious right. 794 00:39:54,840 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 1: Going back to the Sun's No damn it you Banks 795 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:03,840 Speaker 1: going to Utah, Nick Patoom going back to the Clippers, 796 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 1: obviously returning to lac Any of those intrigue their tasks 797 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:11,480 Speaker 1: from guys moving here today, I. 798 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:14,239 Speaker 3: Do say no I do, I know, I can. 799 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:17,479 Speaker 6: I definitely have something else I want to talk about 800 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:18,480 Speaker 6: in the Eastern Conference. 801 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:20,280 Speaker 3: But quickly, Nick Patub back to the Clippers. 802 00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, they should go get Nick Patum again. 803 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:25,280 Speaker 2: Drew you Banks to Utah. 804 00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 6: They need another white guy, I guess, and uh, Delane right, 805 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 6: you loved Herlan Wright and they do need defense on 806 00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 6: the perimeter in Milwaukee. So that's a good deal for him. 807 00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:37,399 Speaker 1: Yeah. I got no issues with that one. They probably 808 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:40,359 Speaker 1: should have got him last trade deadline, so that's fine. Yeah, 809 00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:43,760 Speaker 1: it's obviously super super cheap. Maybe he comes in backup minutes, 810 00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:46,960 Speaker 1: gives you the defense. He's the king of deflections. David 811 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 1: Aldridge called him. Put that on his basketball reference page. 812 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:54,440 Speaker 1: I love it. He's everywhere man, long, limb guy. But 813 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 1: any thoughts on these three? 814 00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:57,760 Speaker 4: No? 815 00:40:57,760 --> 00:40:59,719 Speaker 1: No, okay, well you. 816 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:01,400 Speaker 4: Guys nail that. You said all their names. 817 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:03,600 Speaker 2: I will say something. 818 00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:05,279 Speaker 1: I even said Banks going to the wrong team. 819 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 2: He was, he has been. His spot is taken by 820 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:11,280 Speaker 2: Mason Plumbley in Phoenix. 821 00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:11,839 Speaker 1: That's right. 822 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,239 Speaker 6: I guess they wanted him over Drewie Banks didn't want 823 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:16,320 Speaker 6: to pay him five mil. But I do think something's 824 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 6: important for Evan Mobley and Cleveland because Kenny Atkinson as 825 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:25,280 Speaker 6: a new head coach his first press conference, talked about 826 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:27,400 Speaker 6: Evan Mobley and how much they got to do for 827 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 6: that guy because I know we went into this offseason 828 00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:33,480 Speaker 6: Tree thought maybe they're going to trade Donovan Mitchell, that 829 00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 6: he would be unhappy with where they're going. Well, Kenny 830 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:40,000 Speaker 6: Atkinson has got a mission for that team and Evan Mobley. 831 00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:42,239 Speaker 6: He said, I do think we can schemetically get the 832 00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:46,680 Speaker 6: ball in his hands and more, and it's going more 833 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:49,520 Speaker 6: in multiple ways, even bring the ball up the floor 834 00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:52,280 Speaker 6: in transition as a ball handler in five out situations 835 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:55,399 Speaker 6: when the Cavs spread the floor with shooters. What does 836 00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:57,600 Speaker 6: that mean for Jared Allen featured in pick and rolls, 837 00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:00,360 Speaker 6: his general usage can go up and we have to 838 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:02,400 Speaker 6: figure out the best positions to put him in. I 839 00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 6: can't wait to get on that task because I know 840 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:06,480 Speaker 6: that's a big, big part of this and that is 841 00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:12,360 Speaker 6: right Kenny. Just imagine Evan Mobley unleashed. I don't know 842 00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:14,920 Speaker 6: what it means for him and Jared Allen has two 843 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 6: guys that are in such similar spots on the floor 844 00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:24,360 Speaker 6: at times, so that's interesting to me. But Evan Mobley's 845 00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,239 Speaker 6: got to be He's got to be better, He's got 846 00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:31,720 Speaker 6: to do more. And for him to say his general 847 00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:35,200 Speaker 6: usage can go up, I've never heard it called general usage, 848 00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,520 Speaker 6: but it's totally true. He just needs it needs to 849 00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:40,759 Speaker 6: be better. So I do want the Cavs to be better, 850 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:42,960 Speaker 6: and I think it starts with getting more out of 851 00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:46,759 Speaker 6: him and Garland obviously, but Mobley's just way better than that. 852 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:51,879 Speaker 5: Well, one team with actually signing Donovan Mitchell. No news 853 00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:53,280 Speaker 5: of his extension yet, right. 854 00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:55,200 Speaker 1: No news of his extension. That's right, that's right. 855 00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:57,919 Speaker 5: That could have came out immediately and it has it yet. 856 00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:01,839 Speaker 1: M team that they're gonna be battling too, obviously had 857 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,240 Speaker 1: a first round series with that went to seven games. 858 00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:07,240 Speaker 1: Is the Magic And they did some work today keeping 859 00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 1: two guys Gary Harris two years fourteen, Mili Goga Bitazi. 860 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,440 Speaker 1: I know Knicks fans were pissed. They're like, damn, we 861 00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:16,840 Speaker 1: could have maybe got that guy. That could have been 862 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 1: a nice little backup for Isaiah Hartenstein leaving for the Thunder, 863 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:22,680 Speaker 1: but he stays for three years twenty five million. Both 864 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,800 Speaker 1: those guys staying with the Magic also have Aaron Holliday 865 00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:27,879 Speaker 1: returning to the Rockets on a two year, ten million 866 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,400 Speaker 1: dollar deal, Garrett Temple returning to the Raptors on a 867 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:33,960 Speaker 1: one year deal, Luca Garza returning to the Timberwolves on 868 00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:37,919 Speaker 1: a two year deal. TK either on the Magic guys, 869 00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:39,960 Speaker 1: keeping these guys and sort of what they've done with 870 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:42,560 Speaker 1: the KCP that we've already talked about on the earlier podcast. 871 00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:44,000 Speaker 1: Any thoughts here? 872 00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm a big Goga Bitaz fan. 873 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,799 Speaker 5: You are to see a team take us, take a 874 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:53,080 Speaker 5: gamble out of them, you know, I mean the Bulls 875 00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:55,520 Speaker 5: could have gone for this exact same contract they chose 876 00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:58,880 Speaker 5: Jalen Smith. That's smarter, he's younger, but Goga is like 877 00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:02,640 Speaker 5: a solid third center who occasionally starts for you. The 878 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,040 Speaker 5: Magic played pretty well when he went into the starting lineup. 879 00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:06,680 Speaker 5: The guy was supposed to be like a stretch five. 880 00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:09,720 Speaker 5: Now instead all he can do is grab offensive rebounds. 881 00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:12,960 Speaker 5: Pretty weird, but he's got a very very heavy beard, 882 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:17,720 Speaker 5: very high contrast the very high motor. But Moe Wagner 883 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:20,080 Speaker 5: opted out of his deal with the Magic as well, 884 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:23,279 Speaker 5: assuming he's going to be returning to the team on 885 00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:25,040 Speaker 5: a raise, I think he like turned down what a 886 00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 5: three and a half million dollar deal. They're gonna be 887 00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:28,720 Speaker 5: paying a lot to a bunch of backup centers. 888 00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:31,200 Speaker 1: It sounds like, yeah, that's true. They got a lot 889 00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,759 Speaker 1: of big still there in Orlando, no doubt about that. 890 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:36,000 Speaker 1: But Go Go was good. I mean, you were talking 891 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:38,200 Speaker 1: him up during the regular season. Have we talked more 892 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 1: about this guy than any other podcast? He had like 893 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:43,040 Speaker 1: really good moments and he was playing well for them. 894 00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:45,799 Speaker 1: But it's a pretty good little little payday there for him, 895 00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:48,479 Speaker 1: I thought, And then a little I was a little 896 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:51,800 Speaker 1: surprised with Gary Harris. I guess coming back after the KCP, 897 00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:53,839 Speaker 1: who I just said was a better version of Gary 898 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:58,680 Speaker 1: Harris said, bigger and stronger and better. But you know, 899 00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:01,080 Speaker 1: there's there's still minutes off the bend, so they're they're 900 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:02,720 Speaker 1: they're running this crew back with KCP. 901 00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:09,839 Speaker 2: Really, yeah, I was surprised to see Gary Harris come back, though. Yeah, 902 00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:11,000 Speaker 2: I guess they are running it back. 903 00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:13,160 Speaker 6: I'm sure Goga is going to start at center at 904 00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:16,279 Speaker 6: times because he was that good. Uh, And he will 905 00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:19,520 Speaker 6: be playing for Georgia in this pre qualifying tournament as well, 906 00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:22,960 Speaker 6: starting tomorrow, so I'm sure he'll start for that team. 907 00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:28,680 Speaker 5: But otherwise, is that call he's the one who draws 908 00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:30,320 Speaker 5: up the starting lineup cards. 909 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:31,719 Speaker 2: That's a deep. 910 00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:33,200 Speaker 1: That's a deep, best right. 911 00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:37,160 Speaker 6: Garrett Temple getting a contract with the Toronto Raptors. I 912 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:41,360 Speaker 6: mean that guy is old, one of the oldest players 913 00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:45,840 Speaker 6: in the National Basketball Association at thirty eight, get another contract. 914 00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:49,080 Speaker 6: Good for him, Garrett Bartholomew Temple, great name. 915 00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:53,399 Speaker 1: All right, So that's basically all the news and less 916 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:56,000 Speaker 1: woes of Shams or anybody else has tweeted anything of note. 917 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:58,920 Speaker 1: We're sort of now now we're until you hah DeRozan 918 00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:01,240 Speaker 1: and some of these other shoe Like I said, maybe 919 00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:05,000 Speaker 1: the lowry marketing deal with the Jazz. I assume Danny 920 00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:09,000 Speaker 1: Ainge is asking for the goddamn farm for lowry marketing 921 00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:12,120 Speaker 1: and people are like, oh no, Danny man, that's a lot, man, 922 00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:15,200 Speaker 1: we can't do that. So I don't know if he'll 923 00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:16,840 Speaker 1: come down off of that. But that's what we're waiting 924 00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:21,439 Speaker 1: on again.
