Speaker 2: so please subscribe or you're gonna make Ojo crack. But
Speaker 2: back to this Lebron and Pat McAfee. Like you said,
Speaker 2: o Joe, we're not used to seeing Lebron James sit
Speaker 2: down for an extended period of time.
Speaker 1: Normally, like when.
Speaker 2: He's in the finals or he's in the playoffs, he
Speaker 2: would sit down. That's like five that's like ten minutes.
Speaker 3: And it's always it's always basketball related to he's literally
Speaker 3: talking about other stuff going on in life. He's being vulnerable,
Speaker 3: letting people in something he's never never ever done before.
Speaker 3: Players like that of his magnitude, of his status, that
Speaker 3: allows the world in the public to see what he
Speaker 3: wants you to to actually sit down for a change.
Speaker 3: I guarantee you if they were to do the numbers
Speaker 3: on how many people watch that Pat McAfee show, I
Speaker 3: bet it's astronomical crazy because it's something he's never.
Speaker 2: Done right, and uh, you know, and and to see
Speaker 2: like you said, to see him, but that just lets
Speaker 2: you know that he and for me looking at him
Speaker 2: considering that he had ever ever done anything like this before,
Speaker 2: to think about how many people have criticized him. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and he's never ever done it before. So that lets
Speaker 2: you know he had gotten to a place that he's like,
Speaker 2: I've had it up to hear.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I don't know if he knew.
Speaker 2: I don't think he knew Steven A was gonna come
Speaker 2: to the game, but he had it in his mind
Speaker 2: if he ever saw Stephen A, he was gonna step
Speaker 2: to it.
Speaker 4: But he got stephen a number, He get a texta
Speaker 4: call him. If there was an issue, you get a
Speaker 4: texta call him. They communicate with each other, obviously they
Speaker 4: have some some some some sort of relationship.
Speaker 1: No they don't. You don't think so? No, Okay, well
Speaker 1: I'm bad. No, But like you said, I mean you
Speaker 1: mean no, they don't. Now as opposed to no, I don't.
Speaker 2: Think they've ever had a relationship where they pick up
Speaker 2: the phone and they talk to each other like that.
Speaker 2: I don't think they've ever had that type of relationship.
Speaker 2: Do I think they've been cordial to each other. I
Speaker 2: remember I think I saw something on an old clip
Speaker 2: maybe with YouTube, where Stephen they actually sat down to
Speaker 2: the interview Lebron. But I don't think they're in a
Speaker 2: situation where they like picked up the phone.
Speaker 1: They have each other, they can call each other like that.
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't know if any Lebron is maybe teammates. It
Speaker 2: could I could be wrong, I could be wrong. I
Speaker 2: could be totally wrong. But I don't know if Lebron
Speaker 2: has his number or he has Lebron's number. Lebron is,
Speaker 2: you know, very very very Lebron rocked with who.
Speaker 1: He rocked with.
Speaker 2: And I think once you get to this level, if
Speaker 2: you had, if you have a developed a friend by now,
Speaker 2: Lebron James ain't letting you in his circle. It's really
Speaker 2: that simple. So he got his friends. You know, Rich
Speaker 2: is his agent, Maverick is his steps the chief of staff.
Speaker 2: Mav is one of his business partners. I'm trying to
Speaker 2: think who else he wrought Chris Paul. He's very close
Speaker 2: to Chris Paul. I think he's the grand grand godfather
Speaker 2: to run a CP three then I think if vice
Speaker 2: verds are the same thing with CP. But other than that,
Speaker 2: I don't think Lebron has a whole, a whole lot.
Speaker 1: Of what we call.
Speaker 2: I look at those guys like I look at Bucket,
Speaker 2: like I look at Bucket and Burns. He ain't got
Speaker 2: a whole lot of Bucket and Burns in his life.
Speaker 2: You ain't got a whole lot of you know, TJ,
Speaker 2: your boy, you rock with TJ t O, you ain't
Speaker 2: got a whole lot of them. Yeah, And I look
Speaker 2: at Lebron, and I think Lebron is kind of like that.
Speaker 2: But hopefully, hopefully, hopefully everybody's made their point. Yeah, Lebron
Speaker 2: was upset what he said, Stephen. They said that what
Speaker 2: I was trying to say. Sometimes things get lost in translation.
Speaker 2: It is what it is. But at the end of the.
Speaker 1: Day, I think we've got a We've got a lot
Speaker 1: of juice.
Speaker 2: I think both have kind of squeezed that orange jojo Yeah,
Speaker 2: and got a lot of juice out of it.
Speaker 1: And then Lebron took aim at Wendy.
Speaker 2: Brian Windhorse said, this guy says he's my best effing friend.
Speaker 1: These guys are just weird.
Speaker 2: I don't know if Wendy's ever said I think Wendy
Speaker 2: went to the same school he went to Ojo.
Speaker 1: I don't think when I've never heard and I could
Speaker 1: be wrong. Guys.
Speaker 2: Hell, I was on I was on Undisputed for seven years.
Speaker 2: I didn't hear everything Wendy said. As a matter of fact,
Speaker 2: I didn't watch anything on anywhere. All I watched was
Speaker 2: the games that were on his find. I don't watch
Speaker 2: any of the debate shows. I don't watch any of
Speaker 2: the shows.
Speaker 1: That do what I do.
Speaker 2: And I'm gonna be talking about something because I don't
Speaker 2: want what they say to creep in what I'm going
Speaker 2: to say, so I don't watch. So Wendy Chad if
Speaker 2: he said that he was Lebron's best friend, I apologize,
Speaker 2: but I don't recall, and if I misspeak, I apologize
Speaker 2: to you guys. But I don't believe Wendy has said
Speaker 2: that he's Lebron's best friend. I think because he's covered
Speaker 2: Lebron for so long, and I think they went to
Speaker 2: the same school, Saint Visus, Saint Mary.
Speaker 1: He says.
Speaker 2: I think he said I might probably know him better
Speaker 2: than anyone else.
Speaker 1: But I don't get why. I mean, he would say
Speaker 1: that about Wendy.
Speaker 5: Man, You never know.
Speaker 3: I think I think, like like I said, Lebron is
Speaker 3: probably Lebron is fed up. He's he's he's on I'm
Speaker 3: not saying he's on the way out the door, but
Speaker 3: he's on the tail end of everything. And now he's
Speaker 3: opening up a little bit more, doing things out of
Speaker 3: capsule that he normally wouldn't do, which is giving the
Speaker 3: people what they want, letting us in, you know, giving
Speaker 3: giving us a glimpse of what's inside the world and
Speaker 3: mind of Lebron King James and I enjoy I enjoyed it.
Speaker 3: I hope he does more of it. I hope other
Speaker 3: athletes do more of it. You know what I wish Lebron.
Speaker 3: I wish Lebron was like Jeff t have you ever heard?
Speaker 3: Have you ever sat and listen?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, Lebron would it would be It would be an
Speaker 3: honor for him to take a page out of jeff
Speaker 3: Te's book and be that bone over and open and
Speaker 3: just just just give it, just give it to stories.
Speaker 1: I would love that. Yeah. Lebron talked about his relationship
Speaker 1: with MJ.
Speaker 2: While he still has immense respect for Jordan, the pair
Speaker 2: don't talk much these days. I think that would change
Speaker 2: when he retires from NBA, saying jordan intense competitive spirit
Speaker 2: is why the two don't talk much. Now we all
Speaker 2: know MJ, even if you don't know him personally. He's
Speaker 2: one of the most ruthless competitors there is. And until
Speaker 2: I'm done and he doesn't have to look at me
Speaker 2: run up and down that court where in the twenty
Speaker 2: three every time my name is mentioned, it is mentioned
Speaker 2: with his He's like, I don't want to and talk
Speaker 2: to you, do you, Griocho.
Speaker 3: I mean, that's dope, that's dope list and that's a competitor.
Speaker 3: The competitor nature in MJ. I think it's understandable, especially
Speaker 3: when it comes to him. I think he's he's not
Speaker 3: closed off. But MJ and Kobe are like in a sense.
Speaker 3: MJ and Kobe are like in a sense. I think
Speaker 3: their relationship will be much better and a lot closer
Speaker 3: once Lebron is done playing. Yeah, they go play all together,
Speaker 3: go play golf together, smoke the cards, you know, have
Speaker 3: a little have a little one, whatever it is that
Speaker 3: they do. But right now, while Lebron is actively playing,
Speaker 3: I don't think him and the MJ just outside of
Speaker 3: playing the game of basketball and being successful businessmen, there's
Speaker 3: not much for them to talk about right now.
Speaker 2: The only friend I know, Jordan got it? Oak, I mean, okay,
Speaker 2: this got now. I've been around Jordan a little bit
Speaker 2: and he is ultra competitive. First thing, I mean, I will, Hey,
Speaker 2: you want to play cards? No, I don't want to
Speaker 2: play cards, because you know Jordan games. You gotta come
Speaker 2: down at least a hundred one hundred, one hundred grand
Speaker 2: two hundred grand in cash.
Speaker 3: You don't play.
Speaker 2: I was like, no, I said, bro, you're nothing to
Speaker 2: have me. You're nothing to have me living on the streets.
Speaker 2: I love my house. It ain't Jeorge, But I ain't
Speaker 2: trying to keep up with you. No, No, I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't play no five fifty thousand dollars a hand.
Speaker 2: Hell no, no, bro, Bro, guess what as long as
Speaker 2: they make shoo with that logo, you got money coming in?
Speaker 2: I ain't in the NFL no more. I ain't got
Speaker 2: no more money coming in. You know, I was thirty five.
Speaker 2: Then I can draw my pigeon at sixty two. So
Speaker 2: I got five another five years before I could get
Speaker 2: that o' chobren before I take a pill of it.
Speaker 2: Hell now, I ain't gambling with you. As a matter
Speaker 2: of fact, I'm mad you asked me that. You know,
Speaker 2: damn well, I ain't got no money. No let I
Speaker 2: woulda let you and I'm let you, oh, because I
Speaker 2: think they play guts.
Speaker 1: It's kind of like bout ray. You ever played Boe Ray?
Speaker 1: No sir, no sir sir or in between?
Speaker 2: But noah hell now he also U Lebron talked about
Speaker 2: Jiannis on p MAC. You trying to tell me Johanna
Speaker 2: wouldn't be able to play in the NBA games in
Speaker 2: the seventies. Johnis would have had two hundred and fifty
Speaker 2: points in the game in the seventies.
Speaker 1: But let me ask you, see you transporting Janni's today
Speaker 1: back then? Right?
Speaker 2: Do y'all really know what they did? Did y'all see
Speaker 2: those fights? How many people got to go down the lane?
Speaker 2: See the stuff that they called They called a foul.
Speaker 2: Now that wasn't no foul. There was nobody getting suspended
Speaker 2: for slapping the issh out of somebody. There was no
Speaker 2: I mean, there was no I mean waited. Karl alone
Speaker 2: put forty four stitches in Isaiah head. You still think
Speaker 2: you want to come down the lane? Do y'all remember
Speaker 2: the finals in eighty four when Larry when Larry Birt,
Speaker 2: when who was that Kevin McHale snatched Kurt Rambasan's Out
Speaker 2: the Sky and it wasn't a flavor.
Speaker 1: It wasn't nothing. If nobody it was suspended.
Speaker 2: You can't take the modern play because, oh Joe, you're
Speaker 2: talking about technology and you talk about the modernization.
Speaker 1: Yes, if you transport Yannis today and put it back then,
Speaker 1: looking at you as yea, what player couldn't what player?
Speaker 2: If I take oh Joe, if I take you today,
Speaker 2: you know what you know and the technology that you've
Speaker 2: been able to develop, and put you back in the seventies, man,
Speaker 2: oh Joe was killing.
Speaker 1: Yes, modernization, that's unfair.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think from it, just like it's unfair. One
Speaker 2: more thing, oh Joe, Just like it's unfair to say, oh,
Speaker 2: man Jordan play today he averaged fifty. Let's how about this.
Speaker 2: Let's leave everybody in the era in which they played
Speaker 2: Yanni's plays in the twenty tens and twenty twenties. Lebron
Speaker 2: has been in the two thousands to twenty tens and
Speaker 2: now the twenty twenties. Let's leave everybody that because it's unfair.
Speaker 2: It's unfair. Look, I get it, and it's.
Speaker 1: A conversation, but come on, because we're robbed.
Speaker 2: We're not being fair to the guys that played in
Speaker 2: that era that was great, right, Because it's almost like
Speaker 2: if you talk about these guys like you're trying to
Speaker 2: minimize them, and I get mad at the old guys
Speaker 2: for trying to minimize the current players. Guys, you were great.
Speaker 2: Nobody's trying to rob you of that. You were great.
Speaker 2: These guys are great, the guys in the sixties that
Speaker 2: were great, the guys in the seventies were great. Guys
Speaker 2: in the eighties, right, But it's unfair, oh Joe, I mean.
Speaker 3: I mean, listen, I understand what Lebron was saying. Obviously
Speaker 3: he is is exaggerated a little bit. But if you
Speaker 3: look at the players from back then, I know, just
Speaker 3: being honest from a technical standpoint, from a physical standpoint,
Speaker 3: I know what they did in between the lane and
Speaker 3: being physical and you know, slapping and punching all that.
Speaker 3: But if you're thinking about Giannis and Jannis today, it
Speaker 3: oh my goodness that it's.
Speaker 2: Called technology, Oh Joe, you got an opportunity to work
Speaker 2: on things guys didn't have. It didn't have modern medicine,
Speaker 2: they didn't have technology. Think about when you rupture the achilles.
Speaker 2: You were done. You tore knee, you were done. You
Speaker 2: had that big ass Balki knee brace that big done
Speaker 2: joy on.
Speaker 1: It's different.
Speaker 6: Now.
Speaker 2: We got modern medicine, We know how to eat, we
Speaker 2: know how trained. We have personal trainers and busio. Those
Speaker 2: guys in the sixties and seventies and eighties didn't have
Speaker 2: the money to have all of this stuff, Lebrun. When
Speaker 2: you're making fifty million dollars in basketball and another seventy
Speaker 2: five eighty million dollars off the court, you could have
Speaker 2: a chef that prepares every meal to your specifications.
Speaker 1: You can have a physio.
Speaker 2: You can have a Mike Massias as lebron as an
Speaker 2: excuse me as Jordan had Tim Grover, Tim and Tim
Speaker 2: and I.
Speaker 1: We still we text a lot now, but it's different.
Speaker 1: It's not.
Speaker 2: That you try to compare this era to that era
Speaker 2: or that era to this era.
Speaker 5: You're right, you're right.
Speaker 2: The Cavaliers blow out The Lakers won thirty four to
Speaker 2: one ten and Bronnie James scored his first NBA point
Speaker 2: and his dad watches from the bench. Jared Allen scored
Speaker 2: twenty points, had seventeen rebounds, Evan Mobley had five points
Speaker 2: and Donovan Mitchell had twenty four points. The Lakers were
Speaker 2: led by Lebron James, who played only twenty nine minutes
Speaker 2: because the game got out of hand. Anthony Davis continued
Speaker 2: his great play, having twenty two points and thirteen rebounds.
Speaker 2: The Lakers were unable to cut the Cleveland lead after
Speaker 2: falling behind by twenty three in the first half. In
Speaker 2: the final minutes, Bronnie grew up in in this arena.
Speaker 2: He made a fourteen foot jumper with two minutes and
Speaker 2: three seconds to play for his first NBA points.
Speaker 1: He's only up a little lover forty thousand from catching
Speaker 1: his dad swish.
Speaker 2: When you watch this game and considering how well the
Speaker 2: Lakers had played, even though they lost the other night
Speaker 2: it was last night. I think last night they lost
Speaker 2: by four to Phoenix, but they won the previous three.
Speaker 2: When you look at them, the first three games, last
Speaker 2: night and tonight, what didn't you like about what you
Speaker 2: saw from the Lakers?
Speaker 5: I mean, for me, it's it's it's a lot about
Speaker 5: Bob movement.
Speaker 1: Uh, you know.
Speaker 5: For one, I mean, bron is what.
Speaker 1: Forty you're about to be forty? Yeah, about to.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 5: So for me, it's like, at the end of the day,
Speaker 5: like seeing him lead the charge is concerning and it's
Speaker 5: alarming because obviously, you know, you need a you need
Speaker 5: an extra guy, you need an extra guy or two.
Speaker 5: But to be doing it that his age is, it's incredible.
Speaker 5: But at the same time, he shouldn't have to be
Speaker 5: carrying a load like that. And for me, what's alarming
Speaker 5: that that is when you look at the guys who've
Speaker 5: been working out all season long, off season long, been
Speaker 5: in the gym, like this is the time, especially earlier
Speaker 5: on in the season, this is the time where you
Speaker 5: you know, you start displaying so further on down the line,
Speaker 5: down the road, middle of the year, end of the year,
Speaker 5: they're like, Okay, we can trust this guy. This is
Speaker 5: this is where he's been, you know, this is where
Speaker 5: he's been excelling. For me, being being in those situations,
Speaker 5: I don't see that from their role players, the guys
Speaker 5: they brought back, like where are you getting better at?
Speaker 5: Like what part of their game are you evolving to
Speaker 5: where Okay, we was lacking this part this year last year.
Speaker 5: I'm gonna be a knockdown shooter. I'm gonna be a
Speaker 5: lockdown defender. I'm gonna be somebody who getting into pick
Speaker 5: and roll and you know it makes place. I don't
Speaker 5: see that from from this team so far. So that
Speaker 5: for me, that's the most alarming part about it. But
Speaker 5: it is still early.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I watching them into the turnovers. When you look
Speaker 2: at it, Ad had the most shot He had nineteen.
Speaker 2: He was nine of seventeen. Ruey was four to six,
Speaker 2: Lebron was nine a thirteen, d Lo was too of seven,
Speaker 2: and Austin Reeve was to a six. Now that's two
Speaker 2: or six and two or seven. It's not great percentage.
Speaker 2: But they only got six shots swish they only got
Speaker 2: seven shots. Ad only had nineteen because you had twenty turnovers.
Speaker 2: So now you don't even give yourself an opportunity to
Speaker 2: get into an offense. You don't even give yourself an
Speaker 2: opportunity to knock down shots to get into the pick
Speaker 2: and roll or you know what I'm saying, to run
Speaker 2: the driven drive, to drive a dribble hand off. So
Speaker 2: when you turn the ball over, you give them easy
Speaker 2: buckets on the other end. And so now they shooting
Speaker 2: fifty eight percent from the floor, they shoot forty two
Speaker 2: percent from the three.
Speaker 1: Well, if you allow team to.
Speaker 2: Shoot fifty eight percent from the floor, swish you know this,
Speaker 2: and you allowed team to shoot forty two percent from
Speaker 2: the three, you losing that game?
Speaker 1: Lot.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I about to say, you're gonna get smoked. You
Speaker 5: ain't gonna lose, you gonna get It's gonna be embarrassing.
Speaker 2: Y'all know who it is. It's your favorite. I've teamed
Speaker 2: up with Whatnot. This Friday, November first, at seven pm Pacific,
Speaker 2: I'm joining the Cool Kicks gang here in Las Vegas.
Speaker 2: I'm auctioning off three hundred pairs of the sneakers from
Speaker 2: my personal collection, and it's going into a very worthy cause,
Speaker 2: the Savannah State Scholarship Fun. I'm gonna start a scholarship
Speaker 2: fun because I thought it was appropriate for me to
Speaker 2: give back. I want to donate to my school that's
Speaker 2: done so much for me. So this Friday, November first,
Speaker 2: at seven pm Pacific, Whatnot, in our teaming up, we're
Speaker 2: gonna have an option three hundred pairs of sneakers my
Speaker 2: personal collection. Some of these sneaks guys I didn't even
Speaker 2: know I had. But you get the benefit from it.
Speaker 2: Your favorite up, not for me.
Speaker 5: It's like you know, obviously a guy like Austin Reez
Speaker 5: some nights you're gonna have off nights and stuff like that,
Speaker 5: But you got to figure out a way for him
Speaker 5: to get more than six to eight shots. Like if
Speaker 5: he's going to be that one of those, the third
Speaker 5: guy to Brown the eighty, he's got to figure out
Speaker 5: a way to get eight more at least ten to
Speaker 5: twelve shots. D'Angelo Russell to ten to twelve shots. I
Speaker 5: mean twenty four minutes five assists at the point guard
Speaker 5: with the players you're playing. With no disrespect to d LO,
Speaker 5: but I'm gonna need more out of that. And on
Speaker 5: the top of the on top of that, you're not
Speaker 5: you're not my primary defender on the ball, so you
Speaker 5: got to give me something. So for me, it's a
Speaker 5: lot of that. And on top of that, and when
Speaker 5: I sit here and look at it, they had thirty
Speaker 5: seven assists to their twenty one.
Speaker 1: You ain't gonna win many games.
Speaker 3: Like you know what, I got a question. You talk
Speaker 3: about some of the players that needs to take more shots.
Speaker 3: How do you know when it's okay to take those shots?
Speaker 3: Do you have the green light from the head coach?
Speaker 3: You have the green light from the other players to
Speaker 3: override passing the ball and be have the willingness to shoot.
Speaker 1: How much he make?
Speaker 2: How helo bake about delo make up bout what about
Speaker 2: seventeen to twenty one off?
Speaker 5: Something about shots?
Speaker 1: You're talking about? Let it go?
Speaker 3: So you see that wheel based on your salary.
Speaker 1: One hundred percent?
Speaker 5: What they're gonna.
Speaker 1: Say, okay, okay, okio okyo? What they gonna say?
Speaker 5: Hey, look, when they ain't throw you the ball you
Speaker 5: were it was by yourself. It's just man on man
Speaker 5: what you was looking. Hey, bro, ain't no man over
Speaker 5: the top. Ain't nobody over the top. Give me the back.
Speaker 5: This is the prime time. So for me, when I
Speaker 5: look at it honestly, like when I look at guys
Speaker 5: like d Lo Reeves and you going in that third
Speaker 5: fourth option, Ruy Ruy, I mean Ruy for sure, I
Speaker 5: think Ruiy's a lot. He's underrated for me because what
Speaker 5: he does is disguised by how good Lebron is. Because
Speaker 5: when you look at his size, he can guard all positions,
Speaker 5: he can shoot the ball, he can put the ball
Speaker 5: on the floor, creator play, he can defend, obviously rebound
Speaker 5: like he's he's he's in a tough situation because he's
Speaker 5: playing with a guy like Lebron. So that's the same thing,
Speaker 5: like kind of like Jeff Green fell in that error
Speaker 5: with us when he was a Cleveland. He's in the
Speaker 5: same similar situation. So Lebron is gonna they're gonna cater
Speaker 5: to Lebron when he's on the floor, so it doesn't
Speaker 5: really do him justice when they play them together.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, A d and Lebron's gonna get the
Speaker 1: little bulk of the shots. You know that.
Speaker 2: Now, let's what do you guys are feel Again, we
Speaker 2: saw early in the season Auster Reeve's feeling it. So
Speaker 2: he's gonna get fifteen to eighteen shots d lo he
Speaker 2: gets hot one night. Okay, now that might creep up
Speaker 2: the twenty shots on a given night, but you know, la,
Speaker 2: Lebron and ad are gonna get the bulk of the shots.
Speaker 2: But I think a lot of this had to do
Speaker 2: it because they were getting blowed out Swish. They only
Speaker 2: played twenty eight, twenty four, twenty nine, thirty one minutes.
Speaker 2: It's hard to get those kind of shots and that's
Speaker 2: find that small amount of time. Now, if they play
Speaker 2: their normal minutes, maybe they can get up a few
Speaker 2: more shots. But when you turn the ball over, everybody's
Speaker 2: shots are coming down because you don't even get an
Speaker 2: opportunity to put the ball up because you've turned it over.
Speaker 2: And as you mentioned, they had thirty seven assists, So
Speaker 2: that's telling me, great ball movement. It's also telling me,
Speaker 2: y'all turn the ball over. They get some cheap assists
Speaker 2: after that.
Speaker 5: One, and you look at the rebounds thirty seven and
Speaker 5: thirty six. The Lakers actually win the rebound game, yeah,
Speaker 5: and they still get smoked. So for me, it's obviously
Speaker 5: it's the turnover. It's turnovers for sure, because I was
Speaker 5: a big fan of especially in transition. People hate the
Speaker 5: transition three early threes. I'm taking the early good look
Speaker 5: opposed to me swinging around the horn and we turn
Speaker 5: this joint over and now I got to turn into
Speaker 5: track start going on the other end. I'm gonna put
Speaker 5: this up. I felt like I got a better percentage
Speaker 5: of making this opposed to us turning the ball over,
Speaker 5: and then we got to get a stop on the
Speaker 5: other side.
Speaker 2: What about the situation like this wish where guys are
Speaker 2: try early on trying to say I'm so unselfish and
Speaker 2: you overpassed the ball and you end up turning it over.
Speaker 2: Like you said, You're like, okay, I got a good
Speaker 2: look in transition, I'm gonna let it rip as a polder. Oh,
Speaker 2: hot potato, Hot potato. The next thing you know, the
Speaker 2: ball's going out of bound. You're like, come on, man,
Speaker 2: go ahead and take that shot.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's you know, it's tough when you come into
Speaker 5: situations like when I first got to Cleveland. We used
Speaker 5: to run into that a lot because it got Kyrie
Speaker 5: at the point, me at the two. We got bron
Speaker 5: K Love and obviously trusting setting screens and Rose and Mazi.
Speaker 5: But we you look around the horn, it's like we
Speaker 5: got like, listen, I got a good shot, but he
Speaker 5: got a great shot, so let me kick it to him.
Speaker 5: And you know, guys just operating so fast. You want
Speaker 5: to be unselfish, but at the same time, it's like,
Speaker 5: if I don't take this shot, then he's not gonna
Speaker 5: be open when we needed to be open. So for me,
Speaker 5: a lot of those times, it's like I want to
Speaker 5: be unselfish, but at the same time, I got to
Speaker 5: be selfish for the team because it's gonna help us
Speaker 5: out in the long run.
Speaker 2: Twere you watched Bronni grow up, spend a lot of
Speaker 2: years with Lebron in Cleveland, and see Bronni go from
Speaker 2: a seven eight nine year old to now here he
Speaker 2: is in the NBA.
Speaker 1: What do you what is what is this moment? What
Speaker 1: do you think this moment means for Lebron?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 5: Man, I mean I couldn't. I can only imagine like
Speaker 5: to be able to. I just have my first son,
Speaker 5: he seven weeks so for me thinking about the graph, Man,
Speaker 5: appreciate you. Appreciate y'all.
Speaker 1: Man, But you know we saw that, right, I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm sure you did.
Speaker 2: We're gonna leave that, We're gonna lead that alone. But
Speaker 2: I just said, I just want you to know we
Speaker 2: saw that.
Speaker 5: Hey, man, Hey, you know what I heard you. I
Speaker 5: ain't seen you, but I heard you.
Speaker 1: Okay, there you go. Good swish get too soon, swish it.
Speaker 1: You know what.
Speaker 2: Got a matter fact, we bout on the same timeline.
Speaker 2: It's about seven weeks, so you know what. That's why
Speaker 2: that's why I left the headline so quick, because you
Speaker 2: pushed me out, you like, get your.
Speaker 1: Ass out of your head last.
Speaker 5: Hey, I got the seventy two hour rule out. It's
Speaker 5: over straight up.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you're saying this moment for Lebron and even
Speaker 2: the city of Cleveland to see Lebron come back and
Speaker 2: Brain Junior with me.
Speaker 5: Yeah, man, I mean, honestly, Bronnie is such a you know,
Speaker 5: you hear about so many different kids and so many
Speaker 5: different situations who were like, you know, their parents are stars,
Speaker 5: and they arrogant and they cocky and they feel like
Speaker 5: they just you know, the world is supposed to be
Speaker 5: their oyster. And Bronnie is the complete opposite.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 5: It's like, it's a very humbling feeling to see him
Speaker 5: in the situation he's in and he's very he's very
Speaker 5: it's very grateful for the opportunity, you know, to live
Speaker 5: out your dreams as a kid. That's one of the
Speaker 5: very very rare, you know, few things that unfortunately with
Speaker 5: us three have been able to do. But like to
Speaker 5: actually live it out and have your pops there with
Speaker 5: you to show you, to really show you the ropes,
Speaker 5: it's very it's inspiring, man, Like I really look at
Speaker 5: it and think of like, this is something I would
Speaker 5: definitely want to give my kid one day if I
Speaker 5: can give them the keys to if you can get
Speaker 5: the keys to the chevy to your son, like, what's
Speaker 5: different than give them the keys to the business or
Speaker 5: give them the keys to the game, like just and
Speaker 5: just letting them take it for you know, what they
Speaker 5: wanted to be And regardless of the shoes that we feeled,
Speaker 5: because obviously Bron is Bron and goes down to the
Speaker 5: goat and everything else in comparison is going to be there,
Speaker 5: be there or whatever. But to actually be able to
Speaker 5: live out your dream is something that very few people
Speaker 5: get to do. So I just hope he's in a
Speaker 5: place to where he can actually absorb it and be
Speaker 5: happy and be satisfied with it.
Speaker 3: Now, I don't he and Jay, I don't think people
Speaker 3: understand how dope this situation is, this scenario as a father,
Speaker 3: as a father myself, and I'm just imagining being able
Speaker 3: to play long enough in the NFL, which is hypothetically
Speaker 3: it's damn there impossible, and to be able to play
Speaker 3: long enough for your son to join you, just that
Speaker 3: feeling and knowing all the work you know, Brinni and
Speaker 3: Brown are put in over the years and how it's
Speaker 3: paid off. Not only he's paid off, but now he
Speaker 3: has the opportunity to share the court and the sport
Speaker 3: in which they love and have grown up playing all
Speaker 3: their life, and then to share it on the same team,
Speaker 3: And that that is it's dope in itself, and I
Speaker 3: really can't really put it into words how awesome it is.
Speaker 3: A lot of people have been critical of it, obviously, saying,
Speaker 3: you know, the whole favoritism and he only got he's
Speaker 3: only there.
Speaker 1: Because of his father.
Speaker 3: Well hell, god, damn, yeah, well shit, you're supposed to
Speaker 3: take advantage of those opportunities when you have, you know,
Speaker 3: the cachet, and you have the power that Lebron does
Speaker 3: to be able to bring your son on with you
Speaker 3: and allow him to live out a dream, you know,
Speaker 3: to play at the highest level. To me, it's damn,
Speaker 3: it's unreal. It's unreal, and it's dope. It's motive, is motivating,
Speaker 3: it's inspiring, and I just wish, I wish.
Speaker 1: I could have done something like that.
Speaker 3: Obviously I can't, so I'm gonna live vicereousy to them,
Speaker 3: and that that's ship.
Speaker 1: That's pretty much it, man.
Speaker 3: That that's really really dope.
Speaker 1: Man. You ain't seen that in football.
Speaker 2: You ain't gonna see that in football, Jay d let
Speaker 2: somebody have a kid while they're in high school and
Speaker 2: they can play with and they I mean, you guys
Speaker 2: could think about it. Tom Brady played twenty three seasons.
Speaker 2: His son is probably a Southboy junior high school. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so he would have had to have that kid at
Speaker 2: fifteen sixteen. So therefore by the time he's thirty two,
Speaker 2: Tom got another eleven years. So by the time now,
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, that's a realistic possibility. Now you know,
Speaker 2: there might be somebody that the plot like, go drop
Speaker 2: this one right here, you know, because that's what it's
Speaker 2: gonna take.
Speaker 1: O Joe.
Speaker 2: You can't. I mean, Lebron had a kid at twenty,
Speaker 2: a kid at twenty. Even if you have a kid
Speaker 2: at twenty in the in the NFL, bro, what's the
Speaker 2: likelihood you playing another twenty seasons?
Speaker 3: Not good unless you're a quarterback and you really really
Speaker 3: really really really damn good.
Speaker 1: And now your son. Because the difference is.
Speaker 2: NFL players don't have the kind of leverage that an
Speaker 2: NBA player have, especially a superstar like a Lebron, because
Speaker 2: the positions are so valuable. So it's gonna, like I said,
Speaker 2: I think Gordy Howe. I think he might have played
Speaker 2: with his sons back in the you know, but the
Speaker 2: likelihood of you seeing that in the NFL.
Speaker 1: Ain't seventy sent guild. Did Lebron's wife really break down
Speaker 1: being with me? Yeah? No, that's the truth.
Speaker 6: Listen, that's the true story, man, when I went over
Speaker 6: Lebron's house.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you heard the I think.
Speaker 6: I think Richie Paul was on JJ's podcast when he
Speaker 6: was talking about this big gambling game we did. Yeah,
Speaker 6: like when we were doing the playoffs, Lebron wasn't gambling.
Speaker 6: He was with him in Savannah, was watching film bringing down.
Speaker 1: Tape on us.
Speaker 6: And you know, I'm like looking like, oh, well, that
Speaker 6: shit ain't gonna work because I don't like that play right,
Speaker 6: But the fact that that's what they were doing at
Speaker 6: a young age, because I went to coach like, man, hey,
Speaker 6: that's like a machine was about to play against We
Speaker 6: were better than them.
Speaker 1: He was smarter than us.
Speaker 6: Wow, he was better prepared at an early ege. No one,
Speaker 6: I didn't he outsmarted us in that series.
Speaker 1: He was just smarter than all of us.
Speaker 6: We took we took his his gift for granted we
Speaker 6: knew the athletics, we didn't know he was tactical.
Speaker 1: Are you gil? You know?
Speaker 2: Look chosen one on the cover Sports Illustrated. We know
Speaker 2: the three straight the championships in the high school? Is
Speaker 2: he more or exactly what you thought he would be?
Speaker 1: Way more? Right? I mean I didn't. I didn't. I
Speaker 1: didn't think that.
Speaker 6: I remember my dad said, hey, you better get you
Speaker 6: better get ready.
Speaker 1: This summer.
Speaker 6: There's a kid coming in by the name Lebron James.
Speaker 6: He's like a hurricane. Ain't nobody care about no high
Speaker 6: school kid coming in? And then the first time I
Speaker 6: seen him, I was like, all right, okay, at the
Speaker 6: athleticism was different. And then just you know, being on
Speaker 6: the East Coast playing against him, I can just see
Speaker 6: it clicking faster and fast. So he had to guard
Speaker 6: me his first years. Well I was giving him that business.
Speaker 6: But you can see it like, oh, man, by the
Speaker 6: time he's twenty, oh, we're gonna be in trouble. And
Speaker 6: this part I didn't. I didn't calculate. But watching him
Speaker 6: break down film and then watching him I was like, oh, okay,
Speaker 6: he's gonna be something to record word. But I just said,
Speaker 6: you didn't see. You didn't see that he was gonna
Speaker 6: take care of himself and be exactly what he is today.
Speaker 6: If someone said they they liing, they're they're lying.
Speaker 4: To you.
Speaker 2: For him to be able to do what he does,
Speaker 2: because he missed a lot of the Bronis and Bryce
Speaker 2: and Zouri. He missed a lot of that because he
Speaker 2: needs to get his rest, he needs to train, he
Speaker 2: needs to to to have the physio and to make
Speaker 2: sure everything and he's at the gym getting up those shots.
Speaker 1: How important is it to have someone in your life that.
Speaker 2: Understands you, like Savannah understands Braun and not say I
Speaker 2: need some help with the keys.
Speaker 1: I've been there all day with the kids. Now that's
Speaker 1: your turn now.
Speaker 6: Oh no, no, no, that's exactly what the other ninety
Speaker 6: nine point nine percent of us get.
Speaker 1: I think you all day with the kids here, right.
Speaker 1: So the fact.
Speaker 6: That that they've been there from the beginning, the whole
Speaker 6: team Maverick, that it's the same group from day one.
Speaker 1: They all knew the objective.
Speaker 6: And that ejective be better if it was be better
Speaker 6: than Michael Jordan. They all did they part, right, So
Speaker 6: we when we look and say what has he sacrificed.
Speaker 1: And we look at Bronnie and the family. He sacrificed
Speaker 1: being with his kids.
Speaker 6: Right now, it's twenty years, twenty one, twenty one years,
Speaker 6: So that means he didn't get to really be hands
Speaker 6: on with Bronnie.
Speaker 1: I was Bronnie's first trainer. Hey, Gil, what you think?
Speaker 1: What you look like?
Speaker 5: Hey?
Speaker 1: You know I'm nervous for him.
Speaker 6: You know, you know what I mean, because he's not
Speaker 6: there to really instill what he can into him.
Speaker 1: Right, It's been from a distance. That's what he sacrificed. Right.
Speaker 6: So the fact that you know, a Savannah has really
Speaker 6: gotten these boys to where they are just shows you
Speaker 6: what type of stability he's had this whole.
Speaker 1: Time, especial because she's made it abundantly clear.
Speaker 2: She said, like some people want to start a business,
Speaker 2: and some people want to do this, She says, all
Speaker 2: I wanted to be with a wife and raise a family.
Speaker 2: So that means she gave up anything that she could
Speaker 2: possibly want to be outside of being a wife and
Speaker 2: raising a family to sacrifice because she knew what he wanted.
Speaker 2: I mean, think about somebody giving up them, you know,
Speaker 2: that's like a mother and a father sacrificing for their child.
Speaker 1: But she sacrifices sacrifice.
Speaker 2: Maybe what she wanted or what she could have achieved.
Speaker 2: So you know what, maybe you got I got them
Speaker 2: you Hey, I got this. I'm in the carpool lane.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna pick him up. I'm gonna be there. When
Speaker 2: they look up in the stands, They're gonna see one
Speaker 2: of us. It's probably gonna be me, because I want
Speaker 2: you to be the best that you absolutely can possibly be.
Speaker 2: Now it gets to a point, Savannah, what do I
Speaker 2: absolutely have to.
Speaker 1: Be there for.
Speaker 2: Bridie's first game considering what he went through this summer,
Speaker 2: the cardiac arrest, we don't know if he if and
Speaker 2: when he'll ever play again. Or I can't miss that
Speaker 2: under no circumstances. All Star Game Game one, I can't miss.
Speaker 2: I cannot miss that because I don't know. You don't
Speaker 2: get an opportunity to do the first again, to see
Speaker 2: your see your oldest play his first collegiate game. So
Speaker 2: now you understand, because remember O, Joe, you and YO.
Speaker 2: You know this, there's a great sacrifice to be the greater,
Speaker 2: the the greater the person, the great of the sacrifices
Speaker 2: that they've made and there is no balance for greatness.
Speaker 1: Anybody tell you there is the line. Mm hm.
Speaker 2: Go ask Vanessa, Go go ask Jeda, George, George's first wife.
Speaker 2: Go ask the greats. I'm talking about the I ain't
Speaker 2: talking about you know, look there there there's a lot
Speaker 2: of good players that's the great But I'm talking about this, this, this, this,
Speaker 2: this pyramid.
Speaker 1: Ask them, ask them.
Speaker 7: It's the one thing that I think, as men, especially athletes,
Speaker 7: when we look at you know, Lebron James and the
Speaker 7: Kobe's Chris Paul, that that woman that's that understands them
Speaker 7: to a t, right, that that is the other half
Speaker 7: of them.
Speaker 1: It's an envy.
Speaker 6: Like you started looking around at the girls you chose, Like, man,
Speaker 6: what was I looking at? Like you know what I mean?
Speaker 6: Like it's like, what was I looking at? What was
Speaker 6: I chasing? Because what I was chasing wasn't it? This
Speaker 6: is what I've wanted, Like my career would have been
Speaker 6: better if I had that, right, Like you know what
Speaker 6: I mean, Like if I had some guidance, some understanding, right, Alfred,
Speaker 6: not a Robin.
Speaker 1: I don't need someone else there trying to be a
Speaker 1: hero with me. Alfred.
Speaker 6: He everything that's prepared for you to go be great,
Speaker 6: come back hurt. I'll refix you going out there and
Speaker 6: save it again. That's what we're looking for. And I
Speaker 6: think that's what we when we sit here chasing, we're chasing, looking.
Speaker 1: For that, and we don't know what it looks like.
Speaker 1: But when we do get it, we're like, hey, hey,
Speaker 1: what's that? How you doing? I look a cookie and magic. Now.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Hey, how many women you think would have rolled out
Speaker 2: when the same circumstances oho.
Speaker 1: S take it? Take a special one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, going to gone back out there with them on
Speaker 2: thing that that you would lay in that that you.
Speaker 1: Would lay Yeah, a special one, take a special one.
Speaker 1: Look at Peyton Manning. Look at Peyton Manning.
Speaker 2: Now you know, o Joe, you know firsthand how much
Speaker 2: Peyton time he put in film study.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Brady.
Speaker 2: Until she's like, you know what, damn it, man, you've
Speaker 2: been promising me for the last seven eight years and
Speaker 2: you hang it up. Yeah, man, we got you ain't
Speaker 2: gonna stop. And I just can't. I just can't do
Speaker 2: it anymore. She went as long as she could not. Obviously,
Speaker 2: they're they're things there, you know, hey, But again she
Speaker 2: had her own career. You got to realize she got
Speaker 2: more money than he does. Now, maybe she's like, well,
Speaker 2: a lot of some of the things I did, stop,
Speaker 2: I did sacrifice for you, for the you know, to
Speaker 2: start a family, to raise the family.
Speaker 1: But Peyton, Peyton's uh boom.
Speaker 2: She's like, nah, but hey have that man Brady, God
Speaker 2: that man sees and see man Brady's selfish. Man that
Speaker 2: like privilege right there. Hell yeah, you gotta be selfing
Speaker 2: to be great. All of broke girls out and dated.
Speaker 6: You're telling me someone makes more than me, and I'm
Speaker 6: not gonna stop.
Speaker 1: I'm done, take my bi have them. What are you
Speaker 1: talking about? Oh Joe, you excuse me.
Speaker 2: Gil You suffered the same thing that I suffer because
Speaker 2: I didn't want the girl that wanted me. I wanted
Speaker 2: the girl. And so when you choose somebody to choose
Speaker 2: the girl that want you, not the girl you want,
Speaker 2: because the girl that you won't ain't gonna be the
Speaker 2: ain't gonna be the one. Yea, I know that's that
Speaker 2: you have to You have to live. You have to live.
Speaker 2: You have to live and learn. And when you when
Speaker 2: you look, man, you you you.
Speaker 1: Don't know any better.
Speaker 2: You you you not even you, not even thinking at
Speaker 2: that point in time. You're like, man, I should have
Speaker 2: married this what I should have married this one in
Speaker 2: my college and then that didn't work out, or somebody
Speaker 2: because we all say this, I'm gonna get somebody that
Speaker 2: knows that knew me would I didn't have anything. I
Speaker 2: had this old raggedy car, I didn't have no indoor plumbing,
Speaker 2: and they know what they know what it's like the
Speaker 2: sacrifice and be there for me. Then if that doesn't work,
Speaker 2: I give then where do we go? Because the one
Speaker 2: that we thought, uh, you know, it's like, oh Joe,
Speaker 2: it's like, well, you know if the if the the
Speaker 2: high school or the college sweetheart doesn't work, well, damn
Speaker 2: even if you even if you the seventh round, if
Speaker 2: you're on an NFL team, you in the NFL. It
Speaker 2: ain't like you know what I'm saying, Hey, you're in
Speaker 2: the NFL. It's not like you know, well, you know,
Speaker 2: you work around the building. You actually in the league.
Speaker 2: So whether you a seventh round pick or a first
Speaker 2: round pick, hey, are you that shocked to play for
Speaker 2: the Broncos. Now it's a whole it's a whole different story.
Speaker 2: Too late now oh Joe, Yeah, Oh, you know, I
Speaker 2: wanted to get that, and I know you've probably heard
Speaker 2: of it by now. I wanted to respond to some
Speaker 2: of the criticism, and I normally don't respond to the
Speaker 2: criticism because I don't I don't care anyway. And there
Speaker 2: have been a lot of guys, there have been a
Speaker 2: lot of people taking shots at me personally. But we
Speaker 2: know why they see Unk and Ochoe. They see the
Speaker 2: success that we're having, they see Club Sha, the success
Speaker 2: that I'm having doing that, they see the success that
Speaker 2: I'm having on ESPN. So sometimes the only success someone
Speaker 2: can have is that they take a bite out of you.
Speaker 2: That's their success is a by biting you, and I'm
Speaker 2: cool with that. But I was asked, and I think
Speaker 2: the question was, is that Lebron said he would be
Speaker 2: still the same play absolutely had he never played in Miami. Absolutely,
Speaker 2: And two things can be true. I believe Lebron James
Speaker 2: would have still been the all time leading scorer. I
Speaker 2: still believe Lebron James would have scored thirty thousand points,
Speaker 2: had ten thousand rebounds, ten thousand assists. I still believe
Speaker 2: he would have been a first team All NBA player.
Speaker 2: I still believe he would have been a multi time
Speaker 2: All Star player. But the pushback that I'm gonna give,
Speaker 2: I do not believe he's the Lebron James that we
Speaker 2: know without that stand in Miami, because without that because
Speaker 2: proud of him going there, he had zero championships but
Speaker 2: two MVPs. He goes to Miami, he gets two titles
Speaker 2: and two more MVPs. So now he's four and two.
Speaker 2: There's only a handful of people. Now you gotta go.
Speaker 2: There's only three people before Lebron did it. Will got four,
Speaker 2: Jordan has five, Russell has five, and I think Kareem
Speaker 2: has six, so they're four people. So now Lebron is
Speaker 2: an exclusive company. So now people got like, hold on,
Speaker 2: wait a minute, and he had him at the age
Speaker 2: of twenty eight. So now he goes back to Cleveland,
Speaker 2: he gets another title, four and three, he goes to
Speaker 2: LA he gets another title. Now he's four and four,
Speaker 2: so now he's an elite company. He's one of two
Speaker 2: men to win multiple MVPs two locations, Kareem three and
Speaker 2: three three in Milwaukee, three in LA. He's one of
Speaker 2: two men to win multiple MVPs finals MVPs at different locations, Kawhi,
Speaker 2: San Antonio, Toronto, Kareem, Milwaukee, La Lebron James, So could
Speaker 2: you still be the same player? Yes, but not the
Speaker 2: player we know because without that because whether you see
Speaker 2: here's the thing, O Joe, you can't say. And everybody
Speaker 2: keeps saying he could go anywhere and win those titles. Yeah,
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant Camp Kevin Durant went to Golden State, stayed
Speaker 2: three years, won two titles finals MVP both years, got
Speaker 2: hurt the third year, even though advanced, they lost. He
Speaker 2: went to Brooklyn for four years? How many more times?
Speaker 2: How many more championships he won? Who can I ask
Speaker 2: you a question? Let me stop you right there. We
Speaker 2: talked about James.
Speaker 3: Okay, we talk about the greatest play We can talk
Speaker 3: about the greatest player on the planet that would change
Speaker 3: the dynamic of a team he's on. So in his
Speaker 3: early and his late late late twenties, yes, twenty eight, Yeah,
Speaker 3: win anywhere?
Speaker 1: He could any team.
Speaker 2: Why do you go to Miami, d Why do you
Speaker 2: go to Miami? Then d Wade told him to come
Speaker 2: on home.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no. But you said he could have
Speaker 1: gone anywhere.
Speaker 2: I mean, he could have been that he felt that
Speaker 2: was the best chance for him to win AM I correct.
Speaker 1: Obviously he wanted to pay himself.
Speaker 3: You want to pay himself with Boston Wade?
Speaker 2: I mean, because but see, o Joe, see this is
Speaker 2: what this wouldn't see the different?
Speaker 1: Remember Cleveland? Right? Yes? Who did he have on the
Speaker 1: team with them? But here's the thing.
Speaker 2: What what knowledge did he take back that he had
Speaker 2: acquired from Miami back to.
Speaker 1: Cleveland how to win? Ah? So where did he learn that? Okay?
Speaker 5: Then?
Speaker 2: So without that still in Miami, is he the same?
Speaker 2: Do we view him the same without those four MVPs,
Speaker 2: without those two other MVPs. And because here's the thing,
Speaker 2: oh Joe, this is what we gotta look. If he
Speaker 2: doesn't get those two MVP's regular seasons and those two
Speaker 2: final MVPs, how do you put him in front of Kareem?
Speaker 2: Kareem has six regular season MVPs, two finals MVPs, five titles.
Speaker 2: How do you put him in front of Jordan who's
Speaker 2: six and six? How do you put him in front
Speaker 2: of Tim Duncan who has five titles, three finals MVP,
Speaker 2: two regular season MVPs.
Speaker 1: How do you put him in front of Magic?
Speaker 2: Magic has three regular seas An MVPs five finals, three finals, MVPs.
Speaker 2: How do you put him in there? If he doesn't
Speaker 2: have that Miami stint on his resume.
Speaker 3: You're underestimating how great Lebron is. I think if he
Speaker 3: didn't go to Miami, if he chose to go somewhere else, regardless,
Speaker 3: it would have been I think the outcome would have
Speaker 3: been the same.
Speaker 2: Now, that's not what he said, even he said it.
Speaker 2: If you read Lebron James tweet, this is what Lebron said,
Speaker 2: You damn right. I will still be I'm chosen. Ain't
Speaker 2: nothing changing. Maybe less rings, but dominant from start to finish.
Speaker 3: Even if he had said it he said maybe less rings,
Speaker 3: but common sense and the eye test will tell you.
Speaker 3: Wherever Lebron goes, that team come Hell of high Water
Speaker 3: is probably going to be in the finals or in
Speaker 3: contention to be in it.
