00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 1: out mispronouncing names, Matthew Stafford is winning the NFL Most

17
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:05,759
Speaker 1: vas Player Award. He gave an extremely close vote one

18
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: first place vote. The difference between him winning and Drake May.

19
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 1: Now we'll have more than this in a second, but

20
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 1: just want to bring you up to date on something

21
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 1: going on right now in the NBA Sixers and the Lakers.

22
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 1: Luka Doncic has just left the court and was escorted

23
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 1: to the locker room. Looks like something happened to his

24
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 1: left thigh, possibly on the back. It's hard to say.

25
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,960
Speaker 1: He grabbed it the back of his thigh after a

26
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 1: drive and a jab step and the ball getting knocked

27
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: out of his hands. It's a fifty one two lead

28
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 1: for the seventy six Ers, but Luca had a tough

29
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 1: time moving. He was standing in the middle of the

30
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 1: floor while there was a timeout, and very gingerly he

31
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 1: walked off the floor to get examined Jason Laker's trade

32
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: deadline day. Luka just left the court with an injury

33
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: for the one. I'm being told he went to grab

34
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 1: a beer. Oh, okay, then he's fine. That just had

35
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 1: to make it look bad. Gonna make a look bad

36
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: if I'm gonna grab a beer. No, it's not bad. You

37
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 1: go back, you get the little electro stimulation on the muscle,

38
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: and then you come back up the second half. Sure, yeah,

39
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: you get a nice half hour break here with two

40
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:17,399
Speaker 1: forty seven left in the second quarter, down eight figure. Hey,

41
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 1: you guys got this for a while. I'll go relax

42
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: and we'll be get ready to go for the second half,

43
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 1: so we'll keep an eye and look at dunk dunk

44
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 1: kick and how he's I mean, really, I'm just gonna

45
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 1: do this all night. It's just so great. Tiffany Hattis

46
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,079
Speaker 1: has given us so much material. It's gold. It's gold,

47
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: jerryber gold, it's gold. Just like you know, you've had

48
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 1: legends like Jordan or Kobe say, hey, someone might be

49
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,079
Speaker 1: seeing me for the first maybe the last time. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

50
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: someone may be listening to you with the first or

51
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 1: last time when you mispronounced a name and decide you're

52
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: an idiot. So the Lakers luck to be led tonight

53
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: by Lebron Who is it?

54
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 2: Who is it? Lebron?

55
00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 1: Hummus and Austin Reavs might be the ones that.

56
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 2: Have to lead the thing.

57
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,080
Speaker 1: I'm nervous now when I'm gonna do the mispronunciations on

58
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 1: the fly that I say something that is of course

59
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: compliant with broadcast. Oh, I can't wait for that, like

60
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: I'm hoping I don't say, you know, say something, Oh,

61
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 1: I couldn't sell one of the standards. Is it only

62
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: in English your known language, or you know, if you

63
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 1: trying to say something in that's a little blue and

64
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:23,239
Speaker 1: another language that do you get ding the same? But look,

65
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,519
Speaker 1: we've stay you plead ignorance that way. I mean, I

66
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 1: don't know. Look, we've stayed away from the whole you know,

67
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 1: the Olympic injection into it's a good story. Yeah that

68
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 1: we We'll get to it. But it's flying later. Yeah,

69
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: it is flying. It's flying. Why it is a huge

70
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: it's a hard story to talk about. Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.

71
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: What do you not like flying? All of you? Look,

77
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: go past a minute. Yeah, now you're stammina might really

78
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 1: be affected on this. Yeah, it's a very big story.

79
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 1: See now I'm doing it. How big is it? Jay? Uh?

80
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 1: It is a big story, huge, pretty big story here.

81
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 1: And the thing is the facts of this make the

82
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 1: story bigger. Really. Yeah, I don't if you know that

83
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: or not. Yeah, that was so big. The New York

84
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: Times had it. Yeah, yes, yes, yes, yes, I see

85
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: if there's anything of anendre like there was not. I mean,

86
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: I had lots of stuff going through my head right now.

87
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,279
Speaker 1: I got to make sure it's all okay. You're still

88
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 1: distracted to get clarity, what do you say? I wonder

89
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 1: after they do it, if they get clarity, I'm sure

90
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 1: they do find the meaning of life. Yeah, there you go.

91
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 2: Yeah.

92
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:49,559
Speaker 1: Uh no, I'm not going to say knowing back to Taylor.

93
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 1: I'm going back to Matthew Stafford right now. Uh that's right.

94
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 1: Think about him on that stage, his four little girls

95
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 1: looking up when admiration. Matthew Stafford's your NFL MVP. In

96
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,599
Speaker 1: a vote that was way closer than it should have been.

97
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: But hey, voters like the storyline. They want to anoint

98
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 1: the next Tom Brady. I'll have the guy we tried.

99
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 1: We couldn't with Mac Jones, we couldn't make it all.

100
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 1: But now yeah, with Drake Mays. So let's let's make

101
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: this vote closer. One first place vote was the difference

102
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: five points overall, right, three sixty six to three sixty one.

103
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,599
Speaker 1: But Staffords're MVP, and he announces with his kids on

104
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:30,719
Speaker 1: stage he is coming back for another year to the NFL.

105
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 1: Here's Stafford moments ago. You're newly minted NFLVP.

106
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 3: Can't wait for you to cheer me on next year

107
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:39,159
Speaker 3: when we're out there kicking ass.

108
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: So I'll see you guys next year. Hopefully I'm not

109
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,600
Speaker 1: at this event and we're getting ready for another game.

110
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 1: Is so far so I appreciate you guys, Thank you

111
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: very much. Did he catch himself from saying this stupid event,

112
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,480
Speaker 1: just stupid? I'll tell you what he did catch. Yeah,

113
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 1: a lady falling off the stage. Oh, come on, too

114
00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 1: soon for that, he's too soon. That's too soon for

115
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,479
Speaker 1: that too. How do you know what didn't happen there?

116
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 1: So well, I didn't see nobody fell off the stage.

117
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:05,919
Speaker 1: I watched. I watched nobody fell off that you know

118
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 1: that I know of, Yes, nobody fell off. Look, of

119
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,039
Speaker 1: course he's coming back, right, This is a chance to

120
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 1: make even more money because you're coming off an MVP season.

121
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 1: Really coming into this year, I am sure the RAMS

122
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: philosophy was Okay, we got Stafford. This is going to

123
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,279
Speaker 1: be it because you know, Sean McVay was done with

124
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: the whole. Every year he kind of dances whether or

125
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 1: not he wants to get the you know, stay of

126
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:31,720
Speaker 1: playing another year or not. He's trying to get more

127
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 1: money out of us, and Sean McVay very vehemently last

128
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 1: year was like, we're not going to do this every

129
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: We're not going to do this. In not going to

130
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:40,920
Speaker 1: do this again. Thinking that I'm going to get a

131
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:42,839
Speaker 1: year from Matthew Stafford. That's going to be like the

132
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: last couple, right, They'll start out slow, it'll end great.

133
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: Matthew is still a better quarterback for this team than

134
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 1: just about anybody I can go get. But now he

135
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 1: goes and wins MVP. So now everything changes for the

136
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,359
Speaker 1: Rams because now it's going to be at least a

137
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 1: two year deal with tons of guaranteed money. I am

138
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 1: sure that's what it's going to be for to come

139
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 1: back and play again. Now he's not forty five, he's

140
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 1: thirty seven, so and he's coming off an MVP year,

141
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,040
Speaker 1: So okay, you got to think he's got another year

142
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 1: or two and in him. But now instead of hey,

143
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 1: we're gonna do this year to year, we got to

144
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: worry about, you know, inching along money wise. Now it's

145
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 1: got to be a ton of cash because you want

146
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 1: to negotiate for guy coming off with an NFL MVP.

147
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 1: His wife has already said in the past, the Rams

148
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 1: don't want to pay us. We're out. We love it here,

149
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: but we'll go. So I don't think it's gonna quite

150
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 1: get that acrimonious. But you know that thread is out there.

151
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,679
Speaker 1: It's gonna be tons of money. It's gonna be two years,

152
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 1: eighty million at least to bring Matthew Stafford back next year. Well,

153
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: which is what he just to add. He had a

154
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 1: two year, eighty four million dollar deal. He's on the

155
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: books right now for twenty twenty six. They had the

156
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 1: potential out but as it stands, sixteen million base signing

157
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 1: bonus of twelve million, a bit of restructuring that's four million,

158
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: and then the options run on down and those actually

159
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: go through twenty thirty as it currently stands, with a

160
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 1: reduction each year. As to what it is against the camp,

161
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 1: we know the cap went up twenty plus million dollars.

162
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: The estimate somewhere between three oh one and three oh

163
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: four for this coming year. But yeah, you'll you'll reup it.

164
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 1: You just reup snead and McVeigh. So I'm sure it's

165
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 1: all in a package deal. It's like, all right, we'll

166
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 1: get at least one or two runs with Stafford and

167
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 1: what this current construction of that offense is, which is

168
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 1: highly impressive, particularly if you have the red zone threat

169
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 1: that Devonte Adams is, all those tight ends, running thirteen personnel,

170
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: double headed backfield. You need more from Blake gorm maybe

171
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 1: as a you know, another option to Kien Williams. Maybe

172
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,839
Speaker 1: you see a little more balanced there. But for Matthew Stafford,

173
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 1: the only question was the back injury, which we talked

174
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 1: about in the preseason. I'm like, I think this is

175
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 1: more a veteran. It just doesn't want to go to

176
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 1: work just yet. And sure enough, here we are with

177
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 1: the MVP season and less wear and tear. See he

178
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:56,960
Speaker 1: tolig didn't have to show up when I need to

179
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 1: show up. Look at this well, But I mean that's

180
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 1: part of the frustration if you're a Sean McVay, not

181
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,720
Speaker 1: just getting the contract signed, also the are you gonna

182
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 1: are you gonna practice today? And Matthew you think you'll

183
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 1: join us. I don't think I need practice now, practice practice.

184
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 1: I don't think I need practice. Jimmy to mean he

185
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: can take those reps by the way, seven conference title

186
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 1: games in his career for Jimmy Garoppolo. How about that?

187
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: How many did he play in? Does that matter the

188
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,959
Speaker 1: hell you're trying to ruin? How many did he play?

189
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 1: He's a wizard. He's instrumental to their success. Now AD

190
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 1: is a wizard. Now remember AD is a wizard.

191
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 2: You're a wizard.

192
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:32,840
Speaker 4: Ad.

193
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 1: They actually won. I don't think he played, but you know,

194
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: it's just for Matthew Stafford. Yeah, it's you got to

195
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 1: run it back. The game's at so far next year,

196
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 1: so you at least have to to bring the band

197
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:45,679
Speaker 1: back for one more run. But that's to me when

198
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 1: it says it changes everything for the Rams, because I'm

199
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 1: sure the Rams thought of, Okay, we're gonna go get

200
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,160
Speaker 1: our next quarterback in the either in the draft this

201
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 1: year or more than likely they'll make a trade and

202
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 1: go get somebody that Sean McVay says, you know what,

203
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:01,839
Speaker 1: I can make this guy work, right, Sean McVay, he's

204
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 1: been the best coach in the NFL for a long time. Now,

205
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: we'd go over the past five or six years. Other

206
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,720
Speaker 1: guys are having tremendous runs as well. But McVeigh, you know,

207
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 1: they make the big swings, and it was it would

208
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 1: have been time for another. Okay, maybe it's Kyler Murray,

209
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,720
Speaker 1: maybe it's somebody else, Maybe it's somebody we go, maybe

210
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,199
Speaker 1: I could make two a work, you know here in

211
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: in in La. Whatever it was gonna be, you knew

212
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 1: there was gonna be a bold move for them that

213
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 1: would They're gonna get them younger at the position and

214
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 1: maybe not spending as much money. But now this changes that.

215
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 1: Not that you thought that Matthew Stafford wasn't coming back,

216
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: but I mean it now you still you'll have to

217
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 1: worry about, you know, putting the team around him. And

218
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:41,560
Speaker 1: now unless Stafford says, hey, I'll take less, there's not

219
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 1: been one moment in his career where Matthew Stafford has said, hey,

220
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: I'll take less. Helen that way, Hey, no, no, you're

221
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 1: gonna pay me man. He wanted. He was holding out

222
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 1: just to kind of just just kind of just just

223
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,839
Speaker 1: squeeze whatever cash you could get out of the rams.

224
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 1: The next last couple of years. This guy's going to

225
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 1: clear a billion dollars in NFL salary by the time

226
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 1: he's done playing. It's gonna be it's gonna be money man,

227
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 1: it's gonna be It might be something like a two

228
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:08,439
Speaker 1: year eighty million, but it's all guaranteed, or or two

229
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 1: year eighty five million, fifty million this year, but an

230
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 1: option for thirty five million for the year after. Like,

231
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a lot of money. It's gonna be

232
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 1: more money than they've paid him to bring him back

233
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: next year. All of a sudden, this changes everything for

234
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 1: the Rams as they try to stay a super Bowl

235
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 1: caliber team for next year. The last two year contract

236
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 1: he signed eighty four million, eighty of it guaranteed. Yeah,

237
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: so you're looking at that, and the price of poker's

238
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 1: gone up, right, We've seen it just in the even

239
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,840
Speaker 1: with a couple of the quarterbacks you mentioned as possible

240
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 1: reclamation projects. I always would advise Sean McVeigh in this regard,

241
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 1: don't fly too close to the sun. He's also had

242
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 1: some in game decisions that I would have liked to

243
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 1: ask in the moment. I'm sure he would have a

244
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 1: great answer thought out as to why and the rationale

245
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:58,680
Speaker 1: and everything else. But that's fine. So you're all going

246
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:02,319
Speaker 1: wax Wings, Flight of Vicary Iron Maiden. Okay, yeah, okay,

247
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,560
Speaker 1: Little little gutter Twins in there. Do do do do? Do?

248
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 4: Do?

249
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 2: Do?

250
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 1: Do? Do you go? I could do that do you do?

251
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 1: Maybe once my kids are both off to college, I'll

252
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,559
Speaker 1: just buy a guitar and and that'll be I spend

253
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,319
Speaker 1: my days off a peace of mind. You're going off

254
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 1: of pie. But from Matthew Stafford. Perhaps some of the

255
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 1: detractors back off a little bit after the MVP award. Uh,

256
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 1: certainly a fantastic season, but can't get the get them

257
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 1: over game of inches here and there and everywhere, and

258
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 1: it's it's a long off season. Yeah, it's great to say, hey,

259
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: let's run it back. Catch yourself because you don't curt.

260
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,120
Speaker 1: You curse about and you're near curse about having to

261
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 1: be at this thing instead of participating in the game.

262
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 1: What do you can get that fourth down throwback? What

263
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: do you got Frostburg? You know what's not good for

264
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford's back? What's not good flying to Australia. Yeah,

265
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,199
Speaker 1: it's not good for anybody by the way. I mean

266
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 1: he'll be laying down. I gotta think one of the

267
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 1: those big jumbo jets. Yeah, we'll get to that story

268
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 1: coming up. Yeah, the NFL has decided. Yeah, we're going

269
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 1: to Australia. We're going to Rio. We're gonna play games

270
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,840
Speaker 1: everywhere next year. Yeah, we knew nay with Cowboys. We're

271
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: gonna send the Rams. We're gonna send the four We're

272
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 1: gonna send the best teams overseas. Now wait what, Yeah,

273
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 1: we're gonna do it. Just the logic fails me. You

274
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 1: can't fault the science, but the logic is weak. I'll

275
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:28,240

325
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 1: we get one. He left the game in the second quarter,

326
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 1: grabbing at the back of his thigh after a drive.

327
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 1: He walked gingerly to the locker room. He looked very

328
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 1: frustrated again. This second half about to start with the

329
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 1: Sixers and the Lakers. As soon as we hear something

330
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 1: on Luca, we will let you know. We have not

331
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 1: seen him come out for warm ups yet for the

332
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 1: third quarter. Now today, NBA trade deadline day, Jannis Atatakunpo

333
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 1: is not dealt. He stays a member of the Milwaukee Bucks. Now.

334
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 1: Three big things to know for Janni's right, because he

335
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 1: was the big story going in the big story today

336
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 1: again the big stories about the guys that didn't get

337
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 1: dealt today. Number One, we told you last night he

338
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 1: was staying, Kay Joe, we just let you know. We

339
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 1: told you last night he was staying. Once the Warriors

340
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 1: made that deal for Jonathan Kaminga and they sent him

341
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 1: to Atlanta, he would have had to be the centerpiece

342
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 1: of any trade. When the Knicks, you knew they weren't

343
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 1: going to get involved because they had won eight in

344
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 1: a row. They're not gonna upset the Apple card for Giannis.

345
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 1: The Warriors, these are the two teams you expect to

346
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 1: make the biggest moves for him once they're out. The

347
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 1: Bucks aren't gonna say, well, yeah, we want Tyler Hero,

348
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,679
Speaker 1: who again is offered to everybody at every deadline. It

349
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 1: feels like him and his bucket hat. You can get

350
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 1: Tyler Hero and that bucket hat. Every deadline you knew

351
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,080
Speaker 1: he was gonna stay, and it's a better trade to

352
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,919
Speaker 1: try to figure out in the off season when teams

353
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 1: can make better offers because they know this is how

354
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,399
Speaker 1: we're gonna be able to build around Giannis. This is

355
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 1: what we can do, This is what we can offer

356
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,199
Speaker 1: to trade. We know what worked for us at the

357
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 1: end of the year, what didn't work for us. For instance,

358
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 1: the next if they don't get to the finals, Okay,

359
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 1: I'm sure they'll be all in on Yannis because it

360
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 1: hasn't worked, and Karl Anthony Towns will get dealt and

361
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,439
Speaker 1: maybe it'll be Bridges as well. But they can make

362
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 1: the money work, so there will be something there. So

363
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 1: it's a much easier deal to do in the off

364
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,160
Speaker 1: season once you got to the point where you knew

365
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:01,359
Speaker 1: that these teams his preferred destinations weren't where he wanted

366
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 1: to go, right, so you knew that. The second thing

367
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: is this, he clearly needs our public relations advice because

368
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,639
Speaker 1: he has just been embarrassing himself the last couple of

369
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:17,479
Speaker 1: days with his passive, aggressive wishy watching us about leaving

370
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 1: and staying. A week ago, he was booing the fans

371
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,679
Speaker 1: and calling out his teammates. The last two days, it's

372
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 1: been an interview with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, where he

373
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,240
Speaker 1: says I don't want to leave. I want to stay

374
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 1: here the rest of my career. If I ken, I

375
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:34,160
Speaker 1: look at my driver's license, it says Milwaukee. My kids

376
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 1: were born here. All their IDs say Milwaukee. I don't

377
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 1: want to go anywhere. He've been through the dad in there.

378
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 1: My dad's buried here. And then today, after the trade

379
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 1: deadline passed, he put out a message on Instagram saying

380
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 1: quote legends don't chase, they attract, and then put the

381
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 1: LEO I'm not leaving scene from Wolf of Wall Street. Okay,

382
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,199
Speaker 1: Wall eight. So all this stuff now about getting traded, Now,

383
00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 1: this isn't it. You never wanted to go. Legends don't chase,

384
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: they attract. You were trying to track people here the

385
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,400
Speaker 1: whole time. This is such a load of crap from him.

386
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 1: It's such a loader, and it's showing you that, yeah,

387
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,880
Speaker 1: even the most calculated of guys, because he's way more

388
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,360
Speaker 1: calculated you think he is. He's kind of like lebron Light.

389
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:15,959
Speaker 1: This is just embarrassing. I would say, dude, either you

390
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 1: want to get traded, you got to say it, man,

391
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,880
Speaker 1: all right, you want to try to be the good guy.

392
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 1: I understand but then don't come back over the top

393
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 1: with oh no, I never wanted to go. I just

394
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 1: wanted to stay. Why do you think nobody's offering stuff

395
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 1: for you? Or the offers weren't out there for the

396
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 1: Milwaukee Bucks to say, because nobody knows what you really want.

397
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 1: They get the Oh, he's booing his fans, he's calling

398
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 1: out his teammates, he wants out. Oh wait, now he

399
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 1: says he doesn't want to leave, and he's talking about

400
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,960
Speaker 1: his family and everything else in Wisconsin and now today, Oh,

401
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 1: legends don't chase, they attract. Do you really want to

402
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 1: go or not? I don't know. I don't know. I'm

403
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 1: sure that was part of why that the offers for

404
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 1: Giannis weren't quite there, because teams, if I'm giving up something,

405
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,120
Speaker 1: I want to know you're investor. You want to come here?

406
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,680
Speaker 1: Do you really want to We don't want to depressed

407
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,399
Speaker 1: Giannis to come here. If you're really not not that

408
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 1: excited about getting traded, we're gonna guess what, We're not

409
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 1: going to go crazy to trade for you. So he

410
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 1: needs he needs my advice to just say, dude, you

411
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,680
Speaker 1: got to pick a lane. Man. You gotta either say

412
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 1: you want out or you want to stay. But this

413
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 1: whole wishy washiness, especially when you come back over the

414
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:20,119
Speaker 1: top with oh, yoh, no I'm staying I'm attractive. No, no, dude,

415
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,120
Speaker 1: that's the worst strategy you could possibly have. Grow up

416
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 1: and own it. If you want out, own it. Don't

417
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,879
Speaker 1: try to do this. Oh yeah, not you're the passive

418
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 1: aggressiveness is really hell that. No, this is where you

419
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 1: got to pick a lane. If you want out, you

420
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 1: say it, own it, be a man, and own the

421
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 1: direction of your career. If you want to stay now,

422
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 1: then say I'm not going anywhere. I'm here the rest

423
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,640
Speaker 1: of my career. I'm working on a contract extension. I'm

424
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 1: staying the rest of my career. But you got to

425
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,080
Speaker 1: pick a lane because the rest is just embarrassing. Yeah.

426
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,479
Speaker 1: Because you also got clowned by Doc rivers today if

427
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 1: you're sham Sharania, Yeah, and that's tough. When you get

428
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 1: clowned by DOC, that's tough, man, right, So you had

429
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,439
Speaker 1: that extra layer to the doc. Doc is like the

430
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,119
Speaker 1: Jets record, like, oh, you know, he wins three for

431
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 1: every fourteen he loses, you know, like that's done. Doc,

432
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,960
Speaker 1: who's taking a beating nationally locally here in la for

433
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:12,399
Speaker 1: many fails and you got what is currently going on

434
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 1: there in Milwaukee and whatever the iteration is and how

435
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 1: this season finishes out. But you know, Yannis tried to

436
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:25,439
Speaker 1: play invisible hand, got Lillard there, got Budenholdzer bounced, and

437
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 1: now you have well you reput so and so now

438
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 1: it's the all right, well, what are you going to

439
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 1: be able to attract and bring there that's going to

440
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 1: fit under the salary cap because you don't have a

441
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 1: lot of discernible assets to shuffle off. So now it

442
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:41,959
Speaker 1: becomes the all right, how long are some of these

443
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: other guys off the books? And maybe Sham's got some

444
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,199
Speaker 1: bad info along the way and ran with some some

445
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:52,399
Speaker 1: reporting as to how contentious things were, because, as we

446
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,480
Speaker 1: talked about, both Yannis and the Bucks, neither wants to

447
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,720
Speaker 1: be the bad guy, Like neither one wants to be

448
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 1: the villain in his story. You know, it's one thing

449
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,080
Speaker 1: to say we both shook hands and part of his friends,

450
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 1: but that doesn't look like we're getting well the thing.

451
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 1: But I get that. But then, but don't hurt yourself

452
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 1: in the process, like if you, hey, we knew you

453
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,360
Speaker 1: wanted to get traded and the Bucks were looking into

454
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:17,119
Speaker 1: trying to figure it out. Don't come back at the end.

455
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,080
Speaker 1: And I said, oh, I know, I never wanted to

456
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 1: get traded. I'm attracting not no, because but this is

457
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 1: why you need woes back and not a half NBA

458
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: inside it, Like shefter on the beat because all you

459
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,920
Speaker 1: got is Shd's he's running on a post. But that's

460
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 1: the thing, like your local election when nobody else files.

461
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:36,640
Speaker 1: On the other side, Let's have a real confidence because

462
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:39,119
Speaker 1: we talked about attracting people to championship, and this is

463
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,639
Speaker 1: what he wants to Okay, this is where Yannis, we

464
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,959
Speaker 1: got to have a real conversation about where you are

465
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 1: in your career right now. Because we heard reports come

466
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,680
Speaker 1: out following the deadline that potentially a team offered four

467
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,280
Speaker 1: first round picks. The Warriors offered four first round picks.

468
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 1: The Bucks said, no, Okay, I got that right, the Bucks,

469
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 1: we're gonna trade. You can't give me the whole allure

470
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 1: of all the first round picks. Yeah, if you're trading

471
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 1: a guy who's a second tier star, Okay, I get

472
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 1: you want the front Like I'm excited for the Clippers.

473
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 1: They got two first round picks. For Zubots. They made

474
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,160
Speaker 1: the trade today, right, they got Matthin two first ar Okay, great,

475
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,680
Speaker 1: that's awesome, But also the four picks if he gets

476
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 1: traded there and they're any good at all unless you

477
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 1: got a voodoo doll that's taking him off the court

478
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,119
Speaker 1: for the rest of the year, and those become great

479
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 1: first picks. Yeah, it's more just the value of four

480
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 1: first round picks, but that's not nearly enough. Then we

481
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:30,359
Speaker 1: heard that potentially one team that was going out to

482
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,360
Speaker 1: get him was a little concerned that if he came

483
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 1: in and wasn't the one on the team, he would

484
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 1: have a tough time. Now clear that's going to be

485
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 1: the Knicks because you're not coming and being the biggest

486
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,399
Speaker 1: star than Jayleen Brunson. Uh, well, I would think it

487
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:43,439
Speaker 1: would have to be the Knicks simply because Okay, the

488
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 1: team's on his list that he had. Were they're really

489
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 1: going to go to? The Wolves? Probably not the Warriors.

490
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 1: Are you really worried about assimilating with Steph Curry? Steph

491
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 1: is the superstar that everybody wants to play with. He

492
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,639
Speaker 1: welcome Kevin Durant with open arms. He is more than

493
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 1: okay with sharing the spotlight so you know it's not

494
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,160
Speaker 1: it's you know it's not the Warriors. I gotta think

495
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,160
Speaker 1: it was the Knicks because you're coming in. It's Jalen

496
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 1: Brunson's team. Man, Like, you're coming in and that's great,

497
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: you're the one A. But it's Jalen Brunson's team. So

498
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 1: I would think that potentially it was the Knicks just

499
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,880
Speaker 1: by playing NBA detective. But it doesn't matter because now

500
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:20,400
Speaker 1: here's a team that was concerned about you and how

501
00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:24,119
Speaker 1: you would fit in if they traded for you. You're a

502
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 1: thirty one year old superstar. You are coming off an injury,

503
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,520
Speaker 1: You've been hurt a little bit. Your best days are

504
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 1: behind you. How many more years of your prime do

505
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 1: you have left until you slow down? Three? Maybe to

506
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,639
Speaker 1: you're thirty four to thirty five. Let's give him the

507
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:44,879
Speaker 1: benefit of the doubt, stays in shape, Let's give him

508
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 1: four more years. This is not the Lakers trading for Luca,

509
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,560
Speaker 1: where you're getting a superstar at twenty five years old.

510
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:54,919
Speaker 1: You had a decade plus of Hey man, even if

511
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:56,880
Speaker 1: Luca loses a half step, it doesn't matter. You didn't

512
00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 1: have a step to begin with. Your You think your

513
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 1: status is in the NBA is much different than the

514
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:06,919
Speaker 1: value the league is putting on you. Right, This is

515
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 1: one of those cases where the league is telling you

516
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,200
Speaker 1: this is your value. Right. You always learn what a

517
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 1: player's value is when you see what they wind up

518
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 1: getting traded for. Right, this is what the league is

519
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 1: telling you this guy's value is because this is this

520
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:22,440
Speaker 1: is where you're at. Right, Like, I remember when Mets

521
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:24,879
Speaker 1: fans were so upset that Jeff McNeil got traded to

522
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 1: the A's. I'm like, he got traded to the A's

523
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 1: for a seventeen year old kid. This is how he

524
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 1: was valued around Major League Baseball. So stop with oh

525
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,680
Speaker 1: my goodness, former batting champion, yeah five years ago, he's

526
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 1: not that plan. He was right, but he wasn't champ.

527
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 1: If Jannis was Lebron in his prime, if Jannis was

528
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 1: Luca Flanis anything, the offers would be there and the

529
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 1: Bucks would have pulled the trigger, prit But when the

530
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:53,160
Speaker 1: when the best offer comes in was allegedly this heat

531
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:56,880
Speaker 1: package that was centered around Tyler Hero and Haimi Hakez

532
00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 1: and a few and a couple of first round picks,

533
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 1: Like get that, this is Giannis's value. This is your

534
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:06,800
Speaker 1: value around the league? You think it's way higher than

535
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 1: it is. Right when I say the Knicks can make

536
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:11,879
Speaker 1: the trade in the off season, and it's Karl Anthony Towns,

537
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:13,880
Speaker 1: not because we're out, they're trading at all star. Karl

538
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:15,880
Speaker 1: Anthony Town's got to make the money work, and he's

539
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 1: the guy that they would trade out because You're gonna

540
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 1: come in and really take up a lot of his

541
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 1: positional responsibility. So of course Karl Anthony Towns is gonna

542
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 1: get traded for you. That's where it's going, right. Think

543
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,680
Speaker 1: about that, like, you're not the number one big star

544
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 1: in the NBA that you were right talent wise, Yeah,

545
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 1: I mean, hey, what we've seen from you, But this

546
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,160
Speaker 1: is the back half of your career. You are Shaquille

547
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:41,440
Speaker 1: O'Neill leaving the Lakers for the Miami Heat. Right where

548
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:43,959
Speaker 1: I gotta go and I gotta share things with Dwayne Wade. Right,

549
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:47,119
Speaker 1: what was the market for Shaquille O'Neil after Yeah, Caron

550
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 1: Butler lamar Odom it was an okay trade, You're talking

551
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 1: about trading for a future Hall of Famer. They went

552
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: and won the NBA championship. So just get that. While

553
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 1: the offers probably weren't there. And you think you're this

554
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 1: big pied piper and you're gonna tract all these people.

555
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,719
Speaker 1: If you couldn't attract people to Milwaukee before, now you're not.

556
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,440
Speaker 1: The only person who attracted Milwaukee was Damian Lillard. And

557
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,439
Speaker 1: he couldn't wait to get out, right, He's he's still injured,

558
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:12,440
Speaker 1: and he signed with Portan went back. He went. He

559
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,600
Speaker 1: did't even wait till after was over. You're not attracting anybody.

560
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 1: You gotta go someplace else if you want to go

561
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 1: win again, and you gotta be okay with whatever that

562
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:23,560
Speaker 1: status is. If you're walking in and you're not the

563
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: number one star of the team, you gotta be okay

564
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 1: with that. You gotta get that. This is where the

565
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,399
Speaker 1: NBA sees your value. And teams that want to win

566
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 1: championships are not gonna bring you in to say you're

567
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:35,120
Speaker 1: gonna be our number one. It's gonna be we want

568
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 1: you to fit in with what we have. Right if

569
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,440
Speaker 1: if he was gonna go to the Pacers, they would say, yeah,

570
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 1: I want you to fit in with Haliburton. When he

571
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:44,000
Speaker 1: comes back, he's our MVP. Okay, that's how that's the

572
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 1: conversation you gotta have with Giannis when it's like you

573
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 1: want to pick your next destination, you gotta get that

574
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,199
Speaker 1: if you're gonna win a championship, you're gonna join a

575
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,720
Speaker 1: team where you're the new guy, and while you're a

576
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 1: big star, they already have a big star or two

577
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,560
Speaker 1: and you have to figure your way out of it. Well,

578
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,399
Speaker 1: but that's the other side of it is, if you're

579
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 1: trying to attract people to Milwaukee, you have to recognize

580
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,439
Speaker 1: you've got to roll out the red garpet and be

581
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,359
Speaker 1: prepared to be that second guy. Right, so while he

582
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 1: still has some of that boyish exuberants and whatever else

583
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 1: there's been in the league thirteen fourteen years, at this point,

584
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:17,000
Speaker 1: we've talked about how cagey some of this stuff is,

585
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,920
Speaker 1: and you try to filter out the noise between Shams

586
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:25,240
Speaker 1: reporting and everything else. Again name when we're trying to

587
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,919
Speaker 1: talk about the veracity of claims and your name is

588
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 1: Shams Chams, it's problematic. But we get into the idea

589
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 1: of you got a guy with two more years on

590
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 1: his deal plus the back end of this season, and

591
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:45,120
Speaker 1: then he's looking to re up. If you're a team

592
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 1: that's acquiring him. Are you that close to a title?

593
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 1: Because that's how you have to look at it, because

594
00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,400
Speaker 1: otherwise he's going to be what a fifty five million

595
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 1: dollar guide in two years from now, assuming he's still

596
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,120
Speaker 1: moderately healthy and ready to play. That's just the cost

597
00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 1: of poker for a guy who's still got decent skills

598
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 1: as a big man. And is anybody signing up for

599
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 1: that again, if you've got to ransom everything? Yeah, answer, no, yeah,

600
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 1: all right. It's not quite as stark as the Lebron

601
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 1: conversations we've been having for the last couple of weeks

602
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 1: of Hey, recognize the Wizards are really the only people

603
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 1: that might be knocking on the door. You got more

604
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 1: marketability than that. But to make the money work and

605
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 1: to make Milwaukee not be the ultimate villain like Nico Harrison,

606
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 1: you need something better. Tyler. Hero is great. You make

607
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 1: fun of the bucket hat he's a twenty point a

608
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 1: night scorer when he actually can play. You've been hurt

609
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 1: a lot too, and Hawks is a great college story.

610
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: He's just a guy. Look, the league is telling you

611
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 1: this is what we this is the market for Giannis,

612
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 1: this is what we're willing to pay and you're either

613
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:52,680
Speaker 1: okay with it or you're not, and you want to stay,

614
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 1: but own what you want to do, own, own your destination,

615
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,320
Speaker 1: but get that this is the reality for you, so

616
00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 1: you don't walk into this offseason thinking teams are gonna

617
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 1: give up everything to go get me because they're not well.

618
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 1: We talked about it a lot with it's certainly in

619
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 1: the NFL for years where you have receivers to recognize,

620
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 1: you know what, You're no longer the one right, You're

621
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 1: no longer the boundary X, I'm gonna go get it.

622
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 1: You're down a step. Look at Stefon Diggs. Nice year

623
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,320
Speaker 1: for New England this year, but he's not that Stefan Diggs.

624
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 1: He's not that Minnesota guy that we watched a couple

625
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 1: of years ago. Good receiver. We watched a lot of

626
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 1: guys that are now in the Hall of Fame struggle

627
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 1: with that at the end of their runs, like no, no, no,

628
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:33,400
Speaker 1: I'm still a number one. Look at how many balls

629
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 1: I got. It's like, yeah, bad team, bad games, quick outs, whatever,

630
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 1: You're not winning down field for us anymore. Giannis is

631
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 1: gonna hit that point pretty soon. It's a big guy

632
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 1: and hopefully takes care of the body and plays for

633
00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 1: a long time. But you also have to read the

634
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 1: writing on the wall and recognize that at some point

635
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 1: the Marquee letters changed their font. Exit out about a

636
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:02,080

743
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 1: Number one is that, look, these should be celebrating other countries,

746
00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:28,920

747
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:32,319
Speaker 1: we're sending good teams now. Number one, I hate it

748
00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:36,520
Speaker 1: from a fantasy perspective because you have to get up early,

749
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 1: way early to be able to check your lineup and

750
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:44,239
Speaker 1: make sure because guys that go overseas injuries aren't what

751
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:46,839

754
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,680
Speaker 1: mean you don't even you gotta factor in all sorts

755
00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:58,880
Speaker 1: of other things into your algorithm. I'm sorry, Matt Staff

756

Speaker 1: I don't because the fantasy perspective, guys at cross overseas

763
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:23,759
Speaker 1: go play. Sometimes they don't, and I hate that, right,

764
00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 1: I hate having to do it, especially on the West Coast.

765
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:27,279
Speaker 1: We got to get up early. But that's my real

766
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:30,440
Speaker 1: thing of it is that to have to get up

767
00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:32,440
Speaker 1: at six o'clock in the morning on a Sunday, Right,

768
00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:34,120
Speaker 1: You're talking about half the country having to get up

769
00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 1: at six o'clock in the morning. I'm not gonna do

770
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,799
Speaker 1: it unless the Jets are playing and I get a

771
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 1: great night's sleep the night before. Still, I'm gonna probably

772
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:44,200
Speaker 1: wake up at seven thirty and watch the game from

773
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 1: the beginning and go through it on on TVO. But like,

774
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:50,520
Speaker 1: it's just too early to have games like we're not

775
00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:54,000
Speaker 1: overserved with the NFL on a Sunday. We're not overserved.

776
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 1: We are on an NFL Sunday, we get games from

777
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,279
Speaker 1: ten o'clock in the morning, one o'clock in the afternoon,

778
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:03,520
Speaker 1: all the way through until nine ten o'clock at night. Right,

779
00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 1: this is when we get it. We are not overserved.

780
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 1: If you want to change it and make the game

781
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:10,239
Speaker 1: Saturday and have put the game in a prime that

782
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 1: we're playing Saturday night, whatever, it is, okay, But I

783
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:16,839
Speaker 1: just I really, I don't think any NFL fan has

784
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,640
Speaker 1: the desire to every week wake up in the morning

785
00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:22,799
Speaker 1: and watch international game. I get that the NFL has said, hey,

786
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 1: we've kind of maxed out here in the States. So

787
00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:26,640
Speaker 1: the only way to really grow the game, to make

788
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:28,520
Speaker 1: it look like I'm doing a good job as commissioner,

789
00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,399
Speaker 1: is to continue to put these games overseas. It gets

790
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:33,920
Speaker 1: us more money, it gets the owners more money. But

791
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:35,719
Speaker 1: for the fans, this is not a win for any

792
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:37,440
Speaker 1: of us. This is not a win for any of us.

793
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:39,920
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I'll get up and watch that game, this

794
00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:41,920
Speaker 1: one game. Then I'm gonna watch the games at one.

795
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 1: Then I'm gonna watch the games at four. That nobody's

796
00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 1: doing that. Yeah, the curiosity will be how they schedule

797
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:51,240
Speaker 1: that first week as to whether it becomes a Wednesday, Thursday, Friday,

798
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 1: Saturday game. Well whatever it is Monday, Tuesday, Thursday. What

799
00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 1: I mean when you talk about a nineteen hour time

800
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:03,279
Speaker 1: different belong to Australia. I mean there's there's there's a

801
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 1: lot you can do there, but you add the Cowboys

802
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 1: being exported and like the old rule of thumb applies,

803
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,200
Speaker 1: you don't like it, don't watch. It's when complete people

804
00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:16,680
Speaker 1: complain about the I gotta have all these streaming services

805
00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:20,839
Speaker 1: like they don't. You don't, you really don't. You can

806
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:23,680
Speaker 1: watch red Zone Channel as part of an NFL Plus

807
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:25,960
Speaker 1: baggage that costs you a hundred bucks for the year.

808
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 1: Do you get to watch full games? No, not until

809
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 1: they're done and then you can watch them all you want.

810
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,279
Speaker 1: But there's plenty of ways to consume. And once upon

811
00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:35,839
Speaker 1: a time, remember you only got two games and then

812
00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:38,440
Speaker 1: Monday night football. But but now now we're paying for

813
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:41,560
Speaker 1: a lot more. Now we're paying you decide which which

814
00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:44,239
Speaker 1: package you want or don't. But this is also the

815
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:46,600
Speaker 1: league saying we don't care about you. We don't care

816
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 1: about you in the United States. You don't care about

817
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 1: over what content. We care about overseas. We're gonna take

818
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:53,920
Speaker 1: the game and bring it over seats, care about everybody.

819
00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:58,000
Speaker 1: It's more content, moremembers, more people will be running around

820
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:01,440
Speaker 1: in Pokin Nakua jerseys halfway around the world. I understand,

821
00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:03,799
Speaker 1: but I don't care, and I don't have to like it.

822
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,759
Speaker 1: You know, I don't like it, and I charge with

823
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:10,160
Speaker 1: one thing. What's he charged with? If you have more money,

824
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 1: if you asked an NFL fans just in general, okay,

825
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:18,840
Speaker 1: an extra game every week four hours earlier, do you

826
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:20,560
Speaker 1: want that or would you rather have it somewhere in

827
00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:23,520
Speaker 1: the one o'clock four o'clock window. Ninety would say I'd

828
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 1: rather have it the one o'clock four o'clock window.

829
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 2: They all would.

830
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 1: They all would because the end we give so much

831
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:30,359
Speaker 1: the NFL to ask that game. That's a game where

832
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 1: it's yeah, you know, I don't need to see it.

833
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,760
Speaker 1: How much can I sell that four hours earlier window

834
00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:37,080
Speaker 1: for don't don't need to go You can't look. I

835
00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:38,920
Speaker 1: get it. The league is gonna make money on it,

836
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:40,640
Speaker 1: but it's not great. And then when they go to

837
00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:42,640
Speaker 1: the eighteenth game. Are you gonna say that that's too

838
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 1: bad too. We're sending all the eighteenth games to Antarctica, right,

839
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:48,919
Speaker 1: I mean, oh, that's too much football. Like you watch

840
00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:51,839
Speaker 1: and you'll consume and you'll change your fans. That's another

841
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:55,640
Speaker 1: week of watching, that's okay, and game four hours early?

842
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:59,319
Speaker 1: It is? Yeah, that is not fan friendly. I don't

843
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:00,600
Speaker 1: have to lie again, I don't have to like it.

844
00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:03,680
Speaker 1: Exit out about a Fresca exit swollen dome. Coming up next,

845
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:06,560

846
00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:08,440
