Also, why would Brook Lopez pick the 7 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:26,680 Speaker 2: Clippers over the Lakers? It makes no sense according to 8 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 2: some of these Laker historians. And Kevin Durant goofed on 9 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:35,720 Speaker 2: Dorian Finney Smith during Lebron's podcast. How awkward are things 10 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 2: going to be for Durant and Dorian Finney Smith when 11 00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:42,560 Speaker 2: they are now teammates with the Rockets.

I do get paid to follow this. 38 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,239 Speaker 2: I don't know that I would pay this close attention 39 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:27,919 Speaker 2: if I didn't have this job. In fact, I would 40 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 2: guarantee I wouldn't. But I have the job, and I 41 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 2: do find it interesting. So Lebron's agent, the person that 42 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 2: Lebron buddied years ago, that has been writing Lebron James 43 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 2: cotails all these years, Rich Paul. So, Rich Paul says 44 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 2: that as many as not one, not two, not three, 45 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 2: but four four NBA teams have already inquired about trading 46 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 2: for Lebron from the Lakers. Course they've gone to Rich Paul, 47 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 2: because you don't negotiate a trade with Lebron unless unless 48 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 2: Rich Paul says it's okay. So that comes amid reports 49 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 2: that Lebron has given a hostage note to the Lakers, 50 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 2: hostage note about if you don't make the roster the 51 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 2: way I want the roster, you're out of here. 52 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 1: I'm gone. I'm gonna seek a trade. Now. 53 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 2: He did pick up his fifty two million dollar player 54 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 2: option to return plausibly to the Lakers, but that has 55 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 2: not stopped the rumor orama from picking up steam here 56 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 2: that he's gonna change teams, he's gonna go somewhere else, 57 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 2: and all this stuff. So let us discuss the question, 58 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 2: how do you process? All right, how do you process 59 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 2: supposedly four teams contacting Rich Paul for a Lebron James trade. 60 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 2: So on this one, I've got Flair, gun Feather and 61 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 2: Applebee's and we will combine all of these things together, 62 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 2: and we are gonna make some lucky charms, like a 63 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 2: leprechaun would have a lucky term. Now, number one, I said, 64 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 2: number one, Yeah, get out the old magnifying glass. 65 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: I did. 66 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 2: I got the magnifying glass out on this one. So 67 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 2: this is what's known as vague headline harvesting. It is 68 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 2: vague headline harvesting, no names, no offers, no actual news. 69 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 2: It wasn't like the Knicks, the Timberwolves, the Warriors. 70 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 1: The you know, the Rockets. 71 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 2: It was just four teams, and it's not four out 72 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 2: of thirty because it's twenty nine other teams other than 73 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 2: the Lakers, And you immediately eliminate the Charlotte Hornets, the 74 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 2: Brooklyn Nets, teams that aren't even trying to feel the 75 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 2: competitive team. But it's just enough, just enough bait that 76 00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 2: it'll feed the content cycle for a day, and you 77 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 2: take the hook on that and you kind of run 78 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 2: with it. And it's not like it's the twenty ten 79 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 2: We're not going back fifteen years the decision by Lebron 80 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 2: at a boys and girls club in Connecticut. 81 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 1: We're not doing that. 82 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 2: And so this is not really so much as a 83 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 2: report if you will. It is more of like a 84 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 2: flare gun by Rich Paul. If you imagine Rich Paul 85 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 2: is shooting up a flare from the top of Clutch Mountain, 86 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 2: beautiful Clutch Mountain, and signaling to the NBA world that 87 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 2: Rich Paul is still calling the shots, that Rich Paul 88 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 2: is still in charge both on and off the court, 89 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 2: and if you want a meeting with the King, you 90 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 2: have to visit Rich Paul. Now, I maintain my take. 91 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 2: I have not altered my take from the previous edition 92 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 2: of the show. Lebron is not going anywhere. He's not 93 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 2: unless unless he wants to go somewhere. 94 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 1: Ron doing right now through Rich Paul is just keeping 95 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 1: his name talked about. That's it, right. 96 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,119 Speaker 2: If Lebron got to the point where he actually wanted 97 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 2: a trade, Rich Paul would have shams in one ear 98 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 2: and he'd have Adam Silver in the other before skinny jeans. 99 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 2: Rob Polinka could even boot up the trade machine on 100 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 2: the Internet and see what he could get for Lebron. 101 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 2: So forget about that, and you can bet the phrase 102 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:32,239 Speaker 2: four teams. I saw that a lot Rich Paul. Four teams. 103 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 2: Four teams picked very carefully right, not several not multiple teams. 104 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: It was four. 105 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 2: That sounds surgical, an exact number, four teams, not five, 106 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 2: not six, not seven, right strategic suggesting what suggesting? Something 107 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 2: simmering And again my position, Spider of Art, nothing simmering. 108 00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 2: There's nothing on the back burner at all. We're supposed 109 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 2: to believe that contenders are lining up to trade for 110 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 2: a forty year old Lebron James with more miles than 111 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 2: a rental car and massive salary. I believe his salary 112 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 2: fifty three million is the g DP the domestic product 113 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 2: there of like Micronesia. 114 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: I believe. I'd have to go check. 115 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 2: But all because Rich Paul said, you said something to 116 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 2: a few NBA insiders and then they repeated it, and 117 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 2: that led to the internet doing its thing and we're 118 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 2: off to the races and all that because Lebron's not 119 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 2: just your run of the mill older player. 120 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: Lebron's going to control everything. Like one of the theories is. 121 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 2: The reason Lebron's grumbling is because now he's no longer 122 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 2: the king of the team. 123 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: That Luca. 124 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 2: It's like lucas the center of the universe in Lakerland, 125 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 2: and that's bothering Lebron, Like Lebron's like, no, I'm king 126 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 2: King Lebron. Where would he go? You're gonna go back 127 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 2: to Cleveland. I don't think he's going anywhere. I mean, 128 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 2: this is the Lebron Show, and Rich Paul is the 129 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 2: executive producer of The Lebron Show. And I'll believe it 130 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 2: when Lebron goes somewhere else. I don't believe these initial 131 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 2: round of rumors. Although it is good engagement. It's good 132 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 2: engagement for me. 133 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: All right. 134 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 2: Meanwhile, turning the page, So the Lakers, who had a 135 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 2: very embarrassing week here we're into early July, but the 136 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 2: start of NBA free agency, the Lakers wanted to add 137 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 2: a center. Many believe they had circled the wagons for 138 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,199 Speaker 2: brook Lopez, who had been a free agent from the 139 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:38,319 Speaker 2: Milwaukee Bucks, played with the Lakers in the past, then 140 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,960 Speaker 2: went back to Milwaukee, and that was the guy they wanted. 141 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 2: That was the centerpiece, and he is bringing his towns 142 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 2: to Los Angeles. But brook Lopez will be a Clipper, 143 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 2: not a Laker. So why why would brook Lopez pick 144 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 2: the Clippers over the Lakers? Explain that to me, Like, 145 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 2: I'm five years old, So I'll explain it to you 146 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 2: in forwards. 147 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 1: You ready, here they are. 148 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:14,079 Speaker 2: It's hip two clip boom, drop the mic, hit the clip. 149 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 1: Yep, that's right, thank you. There you go. Yeah, it's 150 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: hip the clip. Yeah. 151 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 2: Another feather in the cap of the Clipper ship there 152 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 2: and a swing batter, a whiff for skinny jeans, Rob 153 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 2: Polinka another whiff there. Also more on Dorian Finney Smith, 154 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 2: who the Lakers had and wanted to keep. He also 155 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 2: left to go play for the Roquets to hang out 156 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 2: with mister Irrigation in Houston. But the Lakers they cannot close. 157 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 2: It's been a problem. It's been an ongoing problem here. 158 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 2: And listen, Lopez said, well, some people say, well he's old. 159 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 2: You know what do you want a guy like that? 160 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 2: He's an older player. But make no mistake, brook Lopez 161 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 2: still is able to defend the rim and those three 162 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 2: point shots, the moneyball from brook Lopez like a stretch four. 163 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 2: Pretty pretty good from brook Lopez. And it's it's not 164 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,079 Speaker 2: a minor move. It's not a major move. It's not 165 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 2: a minor move. It's in the middle and it's a 166 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 2: savvy strategic addition by the people's team and a front 167 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 2: office the Clippers that unlike. 168 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: The Purple and Gold, where they love to tell you 169 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,319 Speaker 1: how great they are. Right, they go around, they leak. 170 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 2: Every negotiation, everything is out there, you know, whether it's 171 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 2: shams or somebody else, and they scream about how great 172 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 2: their culture is, and you know, the pride of the 173 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,079 Speaker 2: all the bull crap with the Lakers and all this stuff, 174 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 2: and people buy into it. Low information fans buy into it. 175 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 2: It's a failure. The Clippers saw a need and they 176 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 2: they filled it. And Brook Lopez will player a fair 177 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 2: amount of minutes until he gets hurt because he's older 178 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 2: and all that stuff. And meanwhile, the Lakers, though they 179 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 2: were in the mix. I love that in the mix, 180 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 2: and that's been a status they've had for a lot 181 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 2: of the players they've wanted to get in recent years. 182 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 2: In the mix, on the radar. They're on the radar, 183 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 2: the finalist until they're not. And what Rob Polenka needs 184 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 2: skinny jeans, Rob Blinka, is he needs another assist from 185 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 2: Nico Harrison. Is there any way that Nico Harrison and 186 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 2: Adam Silver can just give some more good players to 187 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 2: the Lakers, Because without the help, without the push from 188 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:35,079 Speaker 2: the NBA and Nico Harrison to bail him out on 189 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 2: his own devices. It has not gone well for Skinny 190 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 2: G's and Brook Lopez clearly has more confidence the Clippers 191 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 2: will make a further run than the Lakers. Otherwise the 192 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 2: money be about to say he would have gone to 193 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 2: the Lakers. And so we'd rather play with Kawhi Leonard 194 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 2: and James Harden than the Pillsbury dough boy, Houka Luka 195 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 2: and Lebron who's playing a foot set with leaving, even 196 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 2: though we don't think he actually will leave. All right now, 197 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 2: Final point, new team, Same old KD, Same old KD. 198 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 2: Some internet investigators had a field day because it turns 199 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 2: out that if you didn't see this. In a recent 200 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 2: guest appearance on Lebron's podcast, Kevin Durant spoke at length 201 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 2: about a number of basketball related issues, including shot selection 202 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 2: and when to give up the ball and when not 203 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 2: to give up the ball and all that stuff. So 204 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 2: one of the things he said was how Kevin Durant 205 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 2: said he would rather the ball be in the best 206 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 2: player's hands than to pass it to someone like Dorian 207 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 2: Finney Smith with the clock winding down. 208 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 1: Now. 209 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 2: The reason this is interesting is because not only did 210 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 2: Kevin Durant end up on the Rockets, but also his 211 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 2: new teammate is Dorian Finney Smith. 212 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 1: Ding ding ding ding ding. 213 00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, Durant didn't just say I prefer to take the 214 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 2: last shot. No, no, no, He went next level. So how awkward? 215 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 2: How awkward are things going to be for Kevin Durant 216 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 2: and Dorian Phinney Smith now that they will be brothers 217 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 2: in arms, they will be comrades with the Houston Rockets. 218 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 1: So again, the fact that Durant didn't keep this vague, 219 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 1: and I'm happy he didn't. 220 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 2: In his wildest dreams, he clearly did not imagine a 221 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 2: world where he would have a teammate named Dorian Phinney 222 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 2: Smith and they'd be playing together. But here you are, 223 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 2: right here you are, and so the normal response is 224 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 2: I just prefer to take the last shot. 225 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: He didn't say that, though. 226 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 2: Again he basically said, why in the world would I 227 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 2: pass to that guy who happens to be his teammate now? 228 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 2: And man, it's going to be fun. I'm not a 229 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:51,080 Speaker 2: big chemistry guy. You can't hate each other though. You 230 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 2: can't go. 231 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: Into it hating each other. 232 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 2: And you got Durant already calling out teammates No, he 233 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 2: didn't didn't work with the rockets. 234 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 1: He wasn't a rocket when he recorded this. 235 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 2: But the fact that he said it and he named 236 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 2: the name, he named him, he said the name, he 237 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 2: said it. How great is that first get together going 238 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 2: to be like they have the team meeting, they have 239 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 2: the first team then they go out to an Applebee's, Yeah, 240 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 2: and they're they're ordering and then do they sit Dorian 241 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 2: Finney Smith at the kiddie table? Does he sit at 242 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 2: the kids table? Is he allowed with the rest of 243 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 2: the team there. And it's not even about his skill set, 244 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 2: not only he's an average NBA player. I think Dorian 245 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 2: Finney Smith is an average NBA player. He's like roster fillers. 246 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 2: Sometimes he'll be okay, most of the time, you don't 247 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 2: notice he's there. Sometimes he's terrible. He's he's just there 248 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 2: and but very awkward, very very awkward. And it's it's 249 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 2: an equivalent of like over the weekend. You come into 250 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 2: the office on a Monday, You show up to work 251 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 2: on a Monday, and you find out that the boss 252 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 2: was trying was just ripping you a new one, trash 253 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 2: talking you at happy hour on a Saturday, and some 254 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 2: of you coworkers were there and they like they heard stuff, 255 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 2: and it's we're not even close to this time where 256 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 2: they get together. 257 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: The season starts really in October. 258 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 2: Training camp will begin and the season will begin at 259 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 2: the end of October, and all this stuff, and we've 260 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 2: got the drama. Who's got the drama. They've got the drama. 261 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 2: So maybe Dori and Phinney Smith comes in there and 262 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 2: just shrugs it off, and at least that's what we 263 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 2: do publicly. 264 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 1: It'll inspire him to play better. It'll feel them, give 265 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: him some jet fuel. 266 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 2: Maybe he will knock down a bunch of three point 267 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 2: shots and they'll hang out. 268 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 1: Durant and. 269 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 2: Finny Smith will be buddy buddy, right, they'll sen Kumbaya 270 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 2: and roast marshmallows and all that stuff.
