Let me try it again. 35 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 3: New York Sacrum Exchange, Bilangee Simms, number five, metacarpal World Peace. 36 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 4: That was not terrible. 37 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 3: Number four, David Sternham. 38 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 5: It's not an athlete. 39 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 3: Oh someone at sports number three, Frank Femur Femur ball, 40 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 3: number two Tom Ribbodo ReBs and number one Pelvis Andres. 41 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 5: Andrews whatever, No Bran Cockix. 42 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:40,359 Speaker 2: Oh wow, Caucus.

Okay? 46 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 6: Uh? 47 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 2: Date who won the NBA Draft last night? I love it. 48 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 7: I think the right answer might be David Sternham, but 49 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,679 Speaker 7: you know, I'll say that one for later. I do 50 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 7: think there are a lot of people out there that 51 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 7: are trying to figure out who won the NBA Draft. 52 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,360 Speaker 7: I think there's a simple answer. The team that got 53 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 7: Cooper Flagg the Dallas Mavericks. After the draft, Nico Harrison 54 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 7: obviously he got his you know, respawn with this whole franchise, 55 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 7: he should be out, but he got Cooper Flag and 56 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 7: he got to say after he got Cooper Flagg that 57 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 7: fortune favors the brave, one of the craziest quotes I've 58 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 7: ever heard after doing some of the craziest things I've 59 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 7: ever seen a GM do. So in a way, the 60 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 7: Mavericks won, but in another way, I can't believe this 61 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 7: is where we sit right now. But yes, they got 62 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 7: Cooper Flag, and I think Cooper Flagg is going to 63 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 7: be a five tool really good player. 64 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 3: How good of a player, like, like, give me a 65 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 3: comp on Cooper Flagg, who would you compare him to? 66 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 7: Well, I think that, you know, I heard Scalabrini kind 67 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 7: of did the worst thing you could ever do, which 68 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 7: is compare him to Lebron, which we've heard, you know 69 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 7: multiple times now. 70 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 4: Zion was Lebron, Ben Simmons was Lebron. 71 00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 7: I think Anthony Bennett even might have been Lebron at one, 72 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 7: so we've had a lot of guys who have been lebron. 73 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 7: But I do think that Cooper Flag, by all accounts, 74 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 7: has the Alpha mentality. 75 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 4: I heard an assistant coach today this and I thought 76 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 4: it was a good note on him. 77 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 7: They said, it's Anthony Davis if he had an Alpha mentality. 78 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 7: And I think that's a very good way to put 79 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 7: Cooper Flag. He wants to be the guy. He likes 80 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 7: the pressure, he likes to be in those situations. Now, 81 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 7: you can point at the times in college where he 82 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 7: was in some pressure pack situations and did miss some shots, 83 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 7: as we saw in the Final four, as we saw 84 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 7: against Kentucky, as we saw against Clemson when he slipped 85 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,160 Speaker 7: on the floor. So there are some moments you can 86 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 7: point to. But the lebron thing kind of comes back 87 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 7: into play because again, he is such a brand. He 88 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 7: is such a you know, a phenomenon. Right, We're gonna 89 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 7: hear a lot about Maine, We're gonna hear a lot 90 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 7: about Cooper Flag. We're gonna hear a lot about his 91 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,919 Speaker 7: family upbringing. He's gonna be a storyline in the NBA, 92 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 7: So we're gonna learn a lot about this kid. 93 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 4: He is a star in his own right. 94 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 7: But again I think that he's more Scottie Pippen and 95 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 7: maybe like his game. And he's gonna be put into 96 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 7: that number one spot similar to Lebron James, and he's 97 00:04:58,080 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 7: gonna have to deal with the pressure in the XBA 98 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 7: pas that come with that. But again, he is a 99 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 7: bit of a psychopath. He's got a psycho Tyler Hansbrough 100 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 7: kind of mindset to him. 101 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,599 Speaker 4: He's very young, He's getting better and better. 102 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 7: He went home at Christmas break, he came back better 103 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 7: and dominated the second half of college basketball. He shot 104 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 7: forty four percent from three in acc play. A lot 105 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 7: of people forget this. So I just think he's a 106 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 7: really good player. I think he can create for others 107 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 7: and you know, the sky is the limit, you know. 108 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 7: And I roll my eyes as I say that, But 109 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 7: Cooper flag is going to be a really good player. 110 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 3: If there's a player that's going to be better than 111 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:31,840 Speaker 3: Cooper Flagg that was drafted last night, who do you 112 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 3: think that player is going to in? 113 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 7: I like that question. Ace Bailey is probably the right 114 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 7: answer for that. And Ace Bailey obviously had a very 115 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 7: interesting draft. He had a former AAU coach who is 116 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 7: the dad of Sharif Cooper who played at Auburn a 117 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 7: few years ago, or former five star kid, but Omar 118 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 7: Cooper his dad was his agent. Omar said, we're not 119 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 7: taking any meetings, We're not taking any workouts. We are 120 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,280 Speaker 7: basically saying we are who we are, We're the best, 121 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 7: and everybody knows how talented we are. We'll fall where 122 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 7: the chips may fall. Austin Ah said he didn't even 123 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 7: get to talk to the kid. Afterwards. They asked Ace Bailey, 124 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 7: He's like, I'm happy, I'm with the Jazz. 125 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 4: This is my team. 126 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 7: He was already calling him my team. So I think 127 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 7: it's gonna be a good situation. He has kind of 128 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 7: the makeup of. 129 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:14,919 Speaker 4: A twelve year old right now. Ace Bailey, he's a 130 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 4: very young kid, and I think that's a good thing. 131 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 7: Like it feels like if you have a long runway, 132 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 7: you can see the full version of who he's gonna be. 133 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 7: And yes, he's not six foot ten, but he plays 134 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 7: really big and he's a guy that can get a 135 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 7: shot off and he is the toughest shot maker in 136 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 7: college basketball. If you go look at the highlights too, 137 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 7: it's unbelievable some of the shots he hit. 138 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,039 Speaker 4: Now there is a question as to why. 139 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 7: He's taking these shots, which is maybe another conversation. 140 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 4: But he's a very talented player and he's very fun 141 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 4: to watch. 142 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 2: Tate. 143 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 8: I'm work shopping a game here called more surprising Rutgers 144 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 8: having two top five picks or Rutgers having two top 145 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 8: five picks and going fifteen and seventeen. 146 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:58,159 Speaker 7: That Well, it's one of those things where when you 147 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 7: let the two players, the two kind of take all 148 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 7: the money from everybody else, you kind of see what 149 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 7: it looks like. That was a one percent roster, right, 150 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 7: That is what it looks like when the one percent 151 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 7: is thriving at a college basketball program. 152 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 4: These guys are making I. 153 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 7: Mean, you can hear from two million up to six million. 154 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 7: I think it's probably somewhere in between. But regardless, him 155 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 7: and Dylan Harper, they're making all the money for this team. 156 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 4: They have no help around them. 157 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 7: At some point during the year, they kind of looked 158 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 7: at each other and they're like, Hey, it's all right, 159 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 7: you know, we're gonna be fine. This is not gonna 160 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 7: be good for Steve Piico and the rest of the 161 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 7: Rutgers guys, but we're gonna be all right. And they 162 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 7: did have some great moments. They did have some great games. 163 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 7: Ace Bailey's best games happened on the road. That's encouraging, 164 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 7: you know, as far as like the college atmospheres and 165 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 7: him being able to handle that. So, to answer your question, 166 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 7: Rutgers basketball basically sold their soul for two top five picks. 167 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 7: They got nothing in return as far as their own 168 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 7: program boost. But again, it sounded good last night when 169 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 7: we said, hey, Dylan Harper, Rutgers University, Ace Bailey, Rutgers University, 170 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 7: it sounded nice. 171 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 5: What'd you make of the heats pick last night? Because 172 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 5: it's kind of been rated all over the place. I've 173 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 5: seen Yahoo had it at a D plus and I 174 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 5: had other people say they were winners because you know, 175 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 5: it was slipping from like a thirteenth ranked, eleventh ranked 176 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 5: player down to twenty. What did you make in that plus? 177 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 2: Yeah? D plus. 178 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 4: I'll tell you. 179 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 7: I'll tell you this just to start. Draft grades are 180 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 7: awesome and they're hilarious, and who like, who knows, who cares? 181 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 7: I mean, we should probably wait five years before we 182 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 7: do draft grades if we're all trying to be. 183 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's grading after you take nobody. Yeah, you 184 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 2: have to give him a grade before you take the test. 185 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 3: That's how Yeah exactly, Yeah. 186 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 2: You're right. 187 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 4: I need to instantly, no moment later. 188 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 5: Is this a giant bust or not. I don't have 189 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 5: time to wait for careers to play out. You think, 190 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 5: taate cheez. 191 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 4: You're right. Yeah, I don't need the tape. Just give 192 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 4: me the answers. 193 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 7: I do think that casper Is Yakuchonas was going to 194 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 7: be a top ten pick, right. I thought he was 195 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 7: going to be a lottery pick. So for him to 196 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 7: get and be there at twenty is a very fascinating thing. 197 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 7: One note on kJ who's going to the heat. He 198 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 7: had a great start to the year, like he was 199 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 7: on fire some of the games and some of the 200 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 7: performances he had. I remember at Oregon, Illinois had a 201 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 7: ridiculous game. He's like throwing passes between his legs, like 202 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 7: I mean, it looked like a guy playing in a 203 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 7: different time. And then he kind of got some top 204 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 7: five buzz. There were some people in his circle that 205 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 7: told him he was getting top five buzz, and he 206 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,439 Speaker 7: got a little bit scared. He got like a little 207 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 7: bit timid, I could see that it kind of whirled him. 208 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:24,959 Speaker 4: A little bit, where when you had the pressure of it. 209 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 7: All, kind of it kind of got in his head. 210 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 7: So I liked him falling to twenty. I think going 211 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 7: to Miami is a great spot. Think about if you 212 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 7: drafted Goren Drogic, you know what I mean at number twenty, 213 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 7: A young Drogic, you know what I mean? Like that's 214 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 7: the Yakuchonis has that kind of creativity and that kind 215 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 7: of playmaking as a guard, and I really like his game. 216 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 4: I thought, like I said, he's a lottery pick. So 217 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 4: to get him at twenty as a win for Miami. 218 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 3: I feel like we need more to a D plus, 219 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 3: not a D plus C plus C plus C. 220 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 5: Plus to like ten seed, to like eight seed. 221 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 4: I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go B minus. 222 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 3: Wow be minus minus wow minus hey wow. All right, 223 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,319 Speaker 3: I'll get back to us far years from that. 224 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 5: I just like that we bullied Tate into a draft grade. 225 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 2: Yes, uh Tate. 226 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 3: I feel watching the draft last night, like we need 227 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 3: more Kentucky's, more Carolina's, more Kansas, more kids from Indiana. 228 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,599 Speaker 2: What is going on with all these French kids? I mean, seriously, 229 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 2: I'm tired of them. What I mean, wait a minute, 230 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 2: but what happened there? 231 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I don't know what's going on. 232 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 7: I did like that we had the first eight picks 233 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 7: were in college basketball. So that was good, right that 234 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 7: we had, you know, the first eight guys were all 235 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 7: one and done guys in college basketball. 236 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 4: That was a nice turn. 237 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 7: So we got back at the French after last year. 238 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 7: Last year was ridiculous with Reesa che Salon. It was like, 239 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:37,959 Speaker 7: how many guys do I have to learn how to 240 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 7: pronounce their names? 241 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 4: Like this year at least it was like Baron Jay, 242 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,439 Speaker 4: like treyre Right, Like I can learn about them a 243 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 4: little bit later. So that was nice. Carolina. 244 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 7: The issue with Carolina is that, you know, they seem 245 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 7: pretty ho hum and happy with kind of where they 246 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 7: sit as far as the regards to recruiting. You know, 247 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 7: we get our one five star that everyone's like, he's 248 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 7: the guy, and he ends up being in a you know, 249 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 7: mid first round guy. It feels like we have the 250 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 7: Harrison Barnes Marvin Williams, like you forget their name, but 251 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 7: they're a really quality starter in the NBA guy down 252 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 7: pad unfortunately right now. So hopefully Carolina can turn a 253 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 7: leaf and find some guys. Kansas is gonna be all right. 254 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 7: They got Adidas, you know, funneling kids their way. Darren Peterson, 255 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 7: who's gonna be a Kansas next year, will probably end 256 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 7: up being a number one pick. Potentially, He's got some 257 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 7: derreck rose in his games from John Wall and his game. 258 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 4: So they're gonna be all right. 259 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 7: Kentucky and Cali Perry, I think was a big storyline 260 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 7: that nobody talked about, the fact that both these teams, 261 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 7: both these schools and people needed each other. Like Cali 262 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 7: Perry no first round pick for the first time since 263 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 7: two thousand and seven, and then I think Kentucky the 264 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 7: first time says two thousand and nine. So they break up, 265 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 7: they divorce, and everybody's unhappy. So Kentucky fans and Arkansas 266 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 7: fans both upset right now. And Cali Perry, I don't 267 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 7: know if the magic is over or what, but that 268 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 7: was very concerning last night to see him not get 269 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 7: a first round pick. 270 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 3: Billy's making a face, he's shaking, he's had I have 271 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 3: to follow this whenever it happens. 272 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 2: I need to follow the face. Know what happened. I 273 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 2: just I'm still trying to tie to the French. I 274 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:04,080 Speaker 2: mean the names. I'll know. 275 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 5: I'm trying to digest the take of the too many 276 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 5: French people were signed. We need Americans. 277 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 2: I mean, what happens to a. 278 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 3: Kid shooting in the backyard and a peach basket in Indiana? 279 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 2: I mean, seriously. 280 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 5: So this is our official announcement.

Noah A Singay, the Chicago Bulls 301 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 4: seemingly always have something right in front of them that's like, 302 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 4: oh man, this could be a fun pick for the Bulls. 303 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 4: You got Derek Queen still on the board. You know, 304 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 4: you have a situation where you can bring a guy 305 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 4: in who everybody would like and the fan base would like, 306 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,319 Speaker 4: and he would be a lot of fun. He'd be creative. 307 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:35,439 Speaker 4: We already know him. 308 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 7: He had the one moment of madness during March Madness 309 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 7: with that buzzer beater that he hit. 310 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 4: So we all know Derek Queen one of the Chicago Bulls. 311 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 7: Do they say, yeah, let's take Noah a Singay that 312 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:48,719 Speaker 7: everybody's been watching flop and flail all over the court overseas, 313 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 7: and we're going to bring him over to Chicago and 314 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 7: we're gonna say, oh yeah, this is our power forward 315 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 7: to the future. 316 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 4: He's got so much upside. I don't like to pick 317 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 4: at all. 318 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 7: I understand why a lot of people like Noah Singay 319 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 7: because the best case scenario is really tantalizing. 320 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 4: But again, I think sometimes. 321 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 7: With these guys, especially the international guys, we live in 322 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 7: best case scenarios, and then the domestic guys we live 323 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 7: in worst case scenarios. We almost hurt ourselves with the 324 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 7: way that we evaluate some of these guys and with 325 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 7: the singe. I don't see it Stugats, you know, and 326 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 7: maybe I haven't seen enough, but I don't like him 327 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 7: at number twelve for the Bulls. 328 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 2: Do you feel like the NBA Draft really needs two nights? 329 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 4: No? I think they did this obviously. This was solid 330 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 4: Ronnie propaganda move. 331 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. 332 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, Mark Tatum doesn't need his own night. He doesn't 333 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 4: want it. 334 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 2: The draft used to mean something. 335 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 3: Man, it feels like, I don't know it, just it 336 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 3: doesn't feel like what it used to feel like to me. 337 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 5: You used to feel like wat through how the draft 338 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 5: used to feel. 339 00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 3: You would have kids stay in college for three years, 340 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 3: and in one year, Elijah One would come out, Rexler 341 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 3: would come out, Jordan would come out, Sam Bowie would 342 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 3: come out, and there was so much build up because 343 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 3: you watch them play for three years. 344 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 2: And that has taking some of the steam off the 345 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 2: NBA draft, Tay, Do you agree with that? 346 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 4: I do at some level. 347 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 7: But then there are guys that are playing college basketball 348 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 7: staying for the NIL right and we're watching them play 349 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 7: and they're doing incredible stuff, and then they're working their 350 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 7: way into that back into. 351 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 4: The first round. 352 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 7: It feels like for guys that stay in college, your 353 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 7: ceiling is around let's say the Cam Johnson ceiling around eleven. 354 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 7: That's the highest you could ever go, is number eleven. 355 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 7: That's the number one. For guys that stay in college, 356 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 7: now it's not number one, it's number eleven. So that's 357 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 7: the best that they can do. So you're trying to 358 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 7: fight back in to be the number eleven pick. Cam 359 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 7: Johnson was the best case scenario. So like, all these 360 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 7: guys are kind of behind the eight ball, but we 361 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 7: do have a lot of guys we fall in love with. 362 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 7: Walter Clayton Junior is a great example, goes number eighteen. 363 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 7: That's like going number seven. That's like Kobe White, you know, 364 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 7: status there for him. So again it's like that's the 365 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 7: second ten of the draft is like the first ten 366 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 7: for college guys. 367 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 5: Tate was not alive for the era of basketball NBA 368 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 5: Draft that you were longing. 369 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 2: He's a student of the game. Man, he knows what 370 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 2: I'm talking to. 371 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 5: Have that feeling where he was walking around is like, 372 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 5: oh man, I can't wait to see this draft tonight. 373 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, but I felt it. 374 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 5: You did you in the womb you know the drafts 375 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 5: of the age in the picture. 376 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 4: I felt it right. 377 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 3: I mean, Ewing is there for three years and getting 378 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 3: drafted number one overall, and now if you stay, you 379 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 3: get penalized. To his point, get penalized. You can't go 380 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 3: any higher than eleven. I mean, yeah, why are you 381 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 3: giving me that? 382 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 2: Look? Again? 383 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 5: Taking it in? 384 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 2: Are the Knicks ever going to hire a head coach? 385 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 4: Even better question? I think the Knicks kind of played 386 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 4: their hand here. Yeah you really? 387 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 2: Yes? 388 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 4: Do you should do this for a living man? 389 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 2: I crushing it. 390 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 4: I will say this. 391 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 2: He doesn't respect it. 392 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 5: It's unbelievable looking at Wade Phillips coaches. 393 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 2: Now go ahead, Sorry. 394 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 4: No, I uh, TIBs. 395 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 2: That hurt my heart. 396 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 7: I mean, I'm such a TIBs guy. I think everybody 397 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 7: that you. 398 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 4: Know kind of understands who Tibbs is, knows that you 399 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 4: should be a TIBs guy. This guy had a f. 400 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 7: Fiance and told her I'm gonna have to break up 401 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 7: with you because I'm married to the game of basketball. 402 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,159 Speaker 7: This is what he did as a twenty three year 403 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,880 Speaker 7: old man. So this is who Tom Thibbodeau is. This 404 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 7: is who he you know, aspired to be, which was 405 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:26,160 Speaker 7: the coach of the New York Knicks. So for him 406 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 7: to lose his dream job was really sad. I didn't 407 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 7: like the way that they did this. It felt like 408 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 7: a weird kind of back channeling. Then to go to 409 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,679 Speaker 7: every other team and say, hey, can we have your coach? 410 00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 7: I thought that this was a big ploy to get 411 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:37,879 Speaker 7: Jason Kidd. 412 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 4: That's what I had sort of heard kind of through 413 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 4: the grapevine that they were gonna fire Tibbs, they were 414 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 4: gonna get gonna get Kid and. 415 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:45,640 Speaker 7: Sean Sweeney, who ended up going to the Spurs. They're 416 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 7: gonna bring them to New York. Then they're gonna get 417 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,160 Speaker 7: Giannis to come to New York and join Jalen Brunson. 418 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:51,639 Speaker 7: And you know it was gonna be some sort of 419 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 7: package of og and cat, right. That was if there 420 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 7: was a grand plan for the Knicks to be, Like, 421 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 7: what's the next step of this iteration of this group? 422 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,199 Speaker 4: That's what I thought the step was. It does not 423 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 4: seem like that's the step, and so now I think 424 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 4: everybody's trying to figure out, like what is the step? 425 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 4: And it does feel like what Johnny Bryant I think 426 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:10,880 Speaker 4: is the guy who's going to be the head coach now? 427 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 7: But yeah, it's a very fascinating thing. I thought they 428 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:15,640 Speaker 7: had a grand plan, but it doesn't seem like it. 429 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:19,640 Speaker 5: It feels like the Knick's grand plan was built around 430 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:23,400 Speaker 5: tampering and they forgot to tamper, Like they just assumed 431 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 5: this is all gonna work out, but they didn't do 432 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 5: any of the illegal leground the front end. 433 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, right, front end tampering. 434 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,399 Speaker 4: Yeah, Jason Kidd needed to get tampered with in January. 435 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:36,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was the thing. Why would Jason Kid want 436 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 2: to leave now? Right? Because he's got Cooper Flagg, He's got. 437 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 4: A team now, mm hmm exactly. That's a fair I mean, 438 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 4: that's what I mean. Like, right when Luca got traded, that's. 439 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:48,120 Speaker 7: When if you're Leon Rose or you know Worldwide West, 440 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,360 Speaker 7: any of the tamperers in New York City, that's when 441 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 7: you call Jason Kidd and say, hey, they just took 442 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 7: your guy and traded him out of town. Want to 443 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 7: come to New York and to be the head coach 444 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 7: of the Knicks. And I think Jason Kidd would have 445 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,679 Speaker 7: been all in. But now behind the eight ball and 446 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:02,679 Speaker 7: now they can say they tried to hire all these 447 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 7: other guys, and you know they can go with who 448 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,240 Speaker 7: they go with, which I think is Coach Bryant. 449 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 2: What'd you make of Kevin Durant to the Rockets. 450 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 4: I think Kevin Durant got what he wanted. 451 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 7: This might be the last time that we see someone 452 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,160 Speaker 7: be able to dictate where they go, right, Like, this 453 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,199 Speaker 7: is the last group of guys that kind of have 454 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 7: that level of Cashe as superstart him like he should 455 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:24,160 Speaker 7: have no leverage. There's no way that Kevin Durant should 456 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 7: have been able to tell the Suns where they're going 457 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 7: to trade him. But he had three teams come and say, hey, 458 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,919 Speaker 7: we want Kevin Durant. The Warriors came. He said, I 459 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:33,679 Speaker 7: don't want to go there, and you know you can 460 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,239 Speaker 7: figure out why the reasons are. Minnesota comes and they 461 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 7: say we got a great offer for you. He says, 462 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:40,239 Speaker 7: I don't want to go there. Anthony Edwards says, hey, 463 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:41,680 Speaker 7: I don't want to talk to him. I don't want 464 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,159 Speaker 7: to try to convince him if he doesn't want to come. 465 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 7: He doesn't want to come. He wants to go to Houston. 466 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:47,680 Speaker 7: He's got Royal Ivy, one of his great friends. He's 467 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 7: got Emi Udoka, who's probably one of the few coaches 468 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 7: that will actually really buy in with the Kevin Durant experience. 469 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 7: So I think it's perfect. They needed someone at the 470 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:57,720 Speaker 7: end of the shot clock to get a shot off. 471 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 7: What can Kevin Durant do better than anybody get a 472 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 7: shot off? And the Houston Rockets have all the pieces 473 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,120 Speaker 7: around him and Jabari Smith to learn from him. 474 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 4: It's a great fit. 475 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:08,719 Speaker 7: But we've seen Kevin duran go to good situations and 476 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 7: it go arry before, so we'll see what happens. 477 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 3: I know you're a big Carolina guy. You hos to 478 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 3: Carolina podcast. I said earlier today that Caroline is going 479 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 3: to win the national championship in football? 480 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 2: Am I crazy? 481 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 7: No, you're just drinking the kool aid, the Carolina Blue 482 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,159 Speaker 7: kol Aid, which I appreciate. And look, all we needed 483 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 7: was a head coach, right. There was always talent. We've 484 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 7: always had talent. 485 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 2: MATC. 486 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 7: Brown's just like you guys want some cookies, you guys 487 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 7: want a piece of cake, you guys want to take 488 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 7: a nap. These are the things that we were doing 489 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 7: during practice. And I don't blame him. That sounds like 490 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 7: a nice life. But Bill Belichick's like, let's get in there, 491 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 7: let's grind some tape. Bill Belichick's out on the practice field, 492 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 7: shot to my guy, Michael Lombardi, trying to piece together 493 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 7: the roster. I think we got a quarterback Geo Lopez 494 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 7: fingers crossed, and you know you just got to go 495 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 7: out there, one of those du gotts.
