WEBVTT - Kyrie Comes Home 0:00:00.600 --> 0:00:02.720 On this episode of This League, we talk about why 0:00:02.800 --> 0:00:06.200 Kyle Kuzma is the face for modern medicine, why the 0:00:06.240 --> 0:00:08.840 Warriors Number two pick is probably gonna be a bust, 0:00:09.200 --> 0:00:13.000 and holy shit, Kyrie Irving is finally back in the 0:00:13.039 --> 0:00:16.640 fold for the Brooklyn Nets. We also speak to Nets 0:00:16.680 --> 0:00:20.720 insider Anthony Puccio, who spills the tea on why Steve 0:00:20.840 --> 0:00:23.319 Nash might just be a puppet in Brooklyn, and we 0:00:23.360 --> 0:00:26.239 get into some listener voicemails without further ado. You know, 0:00:26.360 --> 0:00:31.920 some people say COVID is not funny, but in this 0:00:32.040 --> 0:00:38.960 case I disagree. I think COVID is hilarious. Not the disease, 0:00:39.440 --> 0:00:43.720 of course, or how it affects marginalized people's or the 0:00:43.800 --> 0:00:48.920 economic impact. I mostly think it's funny how people are 0:00:48.960 --> 0:00:56.840 reacting to COVID, their ability to rationalize anything, even something 0:00:56.960 --> 0:00:59.960 completely counter to what they just said, for their own 0:01:00.000 --> 0:01:04.399 own economic benefit. I think it's pretty fucking funny. I 0:01:04.440 --> 0:01:09.399 think it's funny when you spin something that you really 0:01:09.480 --> 0:01:11.679 want and make it sound like you're doing it for 0:01:11.720 --> 0:01:15.560 the good of the people, when someone is so obvious 0:01:16.480 --> 0:01:20.560 in their pivot, I find that to be fucking hilarious. 0:01:22.360 --> 0:01:25.880 The latest news is this. It's really touching. Actually, Adam 0:01:25.920 --> 0:01:31.759 Silver has decided for US America, especially the downtrodden, the poor, 0:01:32.440 --> 0:01:37.680 that disenfranchised, that the NBA will make the sacrifice if 0:01:37.720 --> 0:01:40.920 public officials deem that it is needed and take the 0:01:41.040 --> 0:01:45.200 vaccine early before the rest of us all put our 0:01:45.280 --> 0:01:53.040 lives at risk to do the same. Brave, selfless. I 0:01:53.040 --> 0:01:58.680 I am moved. Adam Silver, the humanitarian and the American hero. 0:01:58.920 --> 0:02:01.240 I mean, get this guy metal right. Yeah. 0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:04.160 I remember Adam Silver talked about his stance to Stephen A. Smith. 0:02:04.440 --> 0:02:07.160 I can't remember exactly what he said. I don't know 0:02:07.200 --> 0:02:09.320 how close it was to this stance, but I feel 0:02:09.320 --> 0:02:12.440 like it was a little different. Can you play the clip? 0:02:14.080 --> 0:02:17.240 Certainly, No, there's no way we would ever jump the 0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:22.880 line in any form whatsoever. And for the most part, 0:02:23.480 --> 0:02:27.880 because our players are young and healthy without some sort 0:02:27.880 --> 0:02:32.880 of comorbidity, they will not be a high priority for vaccinations. 0:02:32.919 --> 0:02:36.160 I mean, there are some other members of the NBA community. 0:02:37.080 --> 0:02:38.359 When did that video come out? 0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:42.040 That was December twenty first, I think, so like right 0:02:42.080 --> 0:02:46.120 before the season started, so a month ago, like a 0:02:46.200 --> 0:02:47.240 day before the season started. 0:02:47.320 --> 0:02:52.160 Yeah, so in one month's time, something happened, Something that's 0:02:52.200 --> 0:02:58.359 so vastly changed Adam Silver's rationale. He is now advocating 0:02:58.400 --> 0:03:03.440 that the NBA not but must take the vaccine early 0:03:03.639 --> 0:03:08.720 in order to benefit not himself, not the league, but 0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:13.600 skeptical communities. Now, the NBA has a duty, it is 0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:17.560 the public good to take the vaccine. Yes, communities look 0:03:17.600 --> 0:03:21.000 to athletes as their role models when it comes to 0:03:21.040 --> 0:03:22.799 making medical decisions in a pandemic. 0:03:25.960 --> 0:03:29.000 There have been discussions on vaccinating our players. It is 0:03:29.040 --> 0:03:33.000 something we're particularly focused on. There's real value in our 0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:36.840 players demonstrating to a broader community how important it is 0:03:36.880 --> 0:03:37.840 to get vaccinated. 0:03:38.400 --> 0:03:40.280 I mean, that's absolutely true. 0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:40.680 It is. 0:03:41.040 --> 0:03:47.120 There is real value to the NBA for NBA players 0:03:47.160 --> 0:03:49.920 to get vaccinated. I agree, like billions of dollars of 0:03:50.000 --> 0:03:55.320 TV revenue, merchandise sales. I don't know shit, avoiding a 0:03:55.360 --> 0:03:58.880 bubble that no one seems to stand. So where is 0:03:58.880 --> 0:04:01.960 Adam Silver really saying. He's saying that these players are 0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:07.680 a PSA. The COVID vaccine is safe and only they 0:04:07.800 --> 0:04:10.640 can show us that it's safe. What a fucking spin 0:04:10.760 --> 0:04:13.680 zone if I've ever heard one, right, I don't know. 0:04:13.800 --> 0:04:16.440 Maybe it has something to do with the Grizzlies just 0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:21.080 postponed three games. The Wizards have missed like seven games. 0:04:21.120 --> 0:04:23.200 I'm not even sure if they're still in the league 0:04:23.240 --> 0:04:25.200 or if they've been relegated to the Gatorade League. 0:04:25.279 --> 0:04:27.599 Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, And now Thomas Bryant's out, 0:04:27.600 --> 0:04:28.599 so like, who do they even have? 0:04:29.160 --> 0:04:32.480 Who can we run to? No one running up against 0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:36.320 the July deadline because Tokyo's coming around the corner and 0:04:36.360 --> 0:04:39.960 you can't miss that. Adam Silver found a way to 0:04:40.120 --> 0:04:45.039 rationalize that because Kyle Kuzma took the vaccine and that 0:04:45.120 --> 0:04:50.080 it's safe, that that means anything to the average American. Oh, yes, 0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:55.640 Kyle Kuzma, coos, coos, yes, show us what it means 0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:58.960 to be the beacon of hope. Kyle Kuzma, be the 0:04:59.080 --> 0:05:02.800 face of science. It's an epidemiology for us. Kyle Kuzma, 0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:06.840 our infectious disease expert. Coos. We're gonna watch him on 0:05:07.240 --> 0:05:09.880 TV in the middle of Staples Center, in the middle 0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:12.599 of half court, sitting on a little little fold up 0:05:12.680 --> 0:05:17.200 chair with the rest of his team around. I'm like, coos, coos, Yeah, 0:05:17.320 --> 0:05:19.000 play the music, Marty, how's it gonna go? How's it 0:05:19.000 --> 0:05:23.080 gonna go oh yes, here we go, Oh yes, oh 0:05:23.160 --> 0:05:28.440 yes at six eight from Flint, Michigan, representing the Los 0:05:28.520 --> 0:05:34.200 Angeles Lakers taking his first moderna shot. It's Kyle gooz 0:05:34.320 --> 0:05:46.960 Mo goos goos. Yes. Let's get the youngest, healthiest, most 0:05:47.120 --> 0:05:50.400 rich men in the country, world class athletes to be 0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:55.279 the example for us to collectively take the vaccine. Yes, 0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:58.920 as a league, be in solidarity for us. Shows it 0:05:59.040 --> 0:06:03.440 safe for no other reasons but for us. Yes, there 0:06:03.480 --> 0:06:07.360 have been discussions to educate and influence the masses those 0:06:07.360 --> 0:06:12.680 who won't take the injection without it. Whenever we get it, 0:06:12.680 --> 0:06:14.520 it doesn't make any sense. I've I don't know guys 0:06:14.520 --> 0:06:19.080 like Bill Russell or Michael Jordan, or I don't know 0:06:19.160 --> 0:06:23.040 Jerry West, guys who are actually in truly, truly in 0:06:23.160 --> 0:06:27.120 danger of the coronavirus. No, it can't be them. The 0:06:27.160 --> 0:06:30.240 only thing that's going to sway the people is coos 0:06:30.600 --> 0:06:35.320 cooso Get the fuck out of here this league. I 0:06:35.360 --> 0:06:37.720 love being right. I've said it a million times, I've 0:06:37.720 --> 0:06:40.960 said it once, I've said it a million times. But 0:06:41.880 --> 0:06:45.880 sometimes I'm wrong. Those are very far few and far between. 0:06:46.760 --> 0:06:48.680 But I might have been wrong when I said this. 0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:52.040 Steph Curry is no batman because I think the jury 0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:55.560 is still out at this point. Let's be real. He 0:06:55.760 --> 0:07:00.440 is currently elevating a team of no once. Who's on 0:07:00.480 --> 0:07:03.360 that team, Kelly, I think I can replace Kevin Durant 0:07:03.480 --> 0:07:07.719 Ubrey shooting twenty five percent from three, Yeah, thirty five 0:07:07.760 --> 0:07:08.880 percent from the field. 0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:11.760 He can still steal Kuzma's girl, That's right. 0:07:11.680 --> 0:07:15.200 Yeah, exactly. He can steal anyone's girl. And then you've 0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:18.920 got Eric Paschal, You've got Damien Lee, You've got guys 0:07:19.120 --> 0:07:21.520 that the casual fan has. Legitimately, they don't know if 0:07:21.520 --> 0:07:24.440 that's a real NBA player or not. I'm not just 0:07:24.520 --> 0:07:27.640 making up names. Andrew Wiggins, yes, I don't know what 0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:31.280 you would call him. But this roster is the fucking 0:07:31.360 --> 0:07:34.600 roster that Steph Curry elevated to beat the fucking world 0:07:34.680 --> 0:07:40.840 champs down multiple times, double digits. Impressive, not going to lie. 0:07:41.280 --> 0:07:44.960 So last season they had fifteen wins, they had the 0:07:45.040 --> 0:07:50.880 number two overall pick, and they chose James Wiseman could 0:07:50.880 --> 0:07:53.680 have had level would have fit in perfectly like a 0:07:53.720 --> 0:07:56.320 little glove. The problem is when you choose a guy 0:07:56.360 --> 0:07:59.720 who's eighteen years old and he's only played in three 0:07:59.800 --> 0:08:05.200 games in college less than seventy minutes total. When you 0:08:05.280 --> 0:08:07.760 risk a guy who doesn't know how to fucking play basketball, yep, 0:08:08.120 --> 0:08:11.200 and the Warriors have a problem, a big man problem. 0:08:11.400 --> 0:08:14.440 We're thirteen games into the season and I already have 0:08:14.600 --> 0:08:19.960 seen enough. Really, I have seen enough. I know what 0:08:20.000 --> 0:08:25.240 we have. I know who he is. Let me explain. 0:08:26.320 --> 0:08:30.280 We've got James Wiseman, seven foot two hundred and forty 0:08:30.360 --> 0:08:39.320 pound deer in headlights, a monster. We're seven foot six 0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:44.600 inch wingspan, nine foot six standing reach. Dude can touch 0:08:44.640 --> 0:08:48.000 the rim without even getting on his tippy toes. And 0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:51.480 it's sick. Sometimes you see yourself and you're like, this 0:08:51.559 --> 0:08:56.480 guy could be honest, holy shit, what did I just see? 0:08:56.559 --> 0:08:59.720 And then other times you're like, what the fuck James Wiseman? 0:08:59.800 --> 0:09:05.560 What are you doing? James Wiseman. That's a lot of 0:09:05.559 --> 0:09:10.440 the time, actually a lot of time you're like, Ah, 0:09:10.480 --> 0:09:12.480 I don't know, I don't know, And do you know 0:09:12.480 --> 0:09:18.760 who else is like what the fuck? James Wiseman. Draymond 0:09:18.760 --> 0:09:22.839 Green in that game against the Lakers, Draymond Green tried 0:09:22.880 --> 0:09:25.120 to thread the needle to James Wiseman, and what did 0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:29.160 he do? Instead of going pound for pound, athletically gifted 0:09:29.240 --> 0:09:33.520 James Wiseman against an old rickety Mark Gassol. He turns 0:09:33.559 --> 0:09:36.400 the ball over just like boom boom. James Wiseman should 0:09:36.440 --> 0:09:39.160 win that matchup ninety nine times out of one hundred. 0:09:39.440 --> 0:09:42.280 Everyone knows that. And you've got Draymond then in the 0:09:42.280 --> 0:09:44.920 middle of the game, like, yo, why didn't you look 0:09:44.960 --> 0:09:45.800 for the ball? 0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:46.160 Why? 0:09:46.320 --> 0:09:47.920 And he's like, I didn't see you. I didn't see 0:09:48.160 --> 0:09:50.760 He's like, that's the fucking point, bro, look for the ball. 0:09:52.040 --> 0:09:54.480 Always look for the ball. How the fuck do you 0:09:54.480 --> 0:09:56.559 not know this? You've been playing basketball for how long? 0:09:57.040 --> 0:10:00.160 These are fundamental elements of the game, James Wiseman. That 0:10:00.280 --> 0:10:02.520 was Draymond Greed. He had this to say after the game. 0:10:03.240 --> 0:10:06.120 I was just kind of telling him what I feel. 0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:07.640 I think you know. 0:10:07.720 --> 0:10:09.719 That was that was right after the play where I 0:10:09.800 --> 0:10:12.320 threw it to him in traffic and he turned the 0:10:12.320 --> 0:10:15.240 ball over, and I was just telling him I had 0:10:15.280 --> 0:10:17.280 been looking at him the entire time down the floor. 0:10:17.320 --> 0:10:19.160 He never looked. I had been trying to give him 0:10:19.200 --> 0:10:20.199 the ball, and. 0:10:20.160 --> 0:10:24.800 I was just telling him. Most people will say, Draymond 0:10:24.800 --> 0:10:26.880 put you in a tough spot and you turned the 0:10:26.920 --> 0:10:29.679 ball over because you shouldn't have been in that spot. 0:10:29.920 --> 0:10:31.960 I think if I give him the ball right there, 0:10:32.080 --> 0:10:34.160 he knows how to handle it. He's one on one 0:10:34.200 --> 0:10:38.200 downhill with Marcasol, and I love Marcasol's game. I think 0:10:38.240 --> 0:10:41.520 he's been phenomenal all these years. He's a champion. I 0:10:41.679 --> 0:10:45.880 like James chances if he's one on one downhill under control, 0:10:46.080 --> 0:10:49.360 and so, you know, really just trying to get him 0:10:49.440 --> 0:10:51.319 to show him the different pictures, you know, And I 0:10:51.679 --> 0:10:54.880 told him I put. 0:10:54.720 --> 0:10:55.959 You in a tough spot. 0:10:56.200 --> 0:10:59.480 I did, but I think you can handle being in 0:10:59.520 --> 0:11:03.000 that tough stot And so I'm gonna do it again. Right, 0:11:03.200 --> 0:11:06.760 I'm gonna that spot again. You're gonna be in transition, 0:11:07.040 --> 0:11:08.640 and next time you're gonna figure it out. 0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:13.040 I'm gonna do it again, he says. If Draymond is 0:11:13.080 --> 0:11:15.559 doing that to Wiseman in the middle of the game, 0:11:16.360 --> 0:11:21.080 you know Draymond is doing all kinds of things, texting 0:11:21.160 --> 0:11:24.520 James Wiseman at all hours of the day, sending him 0:11:24.559 --> 0:11:27.320 video clips like, yo, you missed this backdoor cutter here, Yo, 0:11:27.440 --> 0:11:29.960 this is a setting a sloppy screen here. You didn't 0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:33.319 roll to the basket here. Ding ding ding ding ding 0:11:33.400 --> 0:11:36.640 ding ding ding from Draymond Green all night, sending him 0:11:36.679 --> 0:11:43.319 books from Amazon like Triangle Offense for Dummies, Basketball on Paper. 0:11:43.760 --> 0:11:49.040 God damn it, Draymond, will you leave me the fuck alone? Dude, 0:11:49.080 --> 0:11:53.760 bro Chill, I got this. He doesn't get it, he 0:11:53.800 --> 0:11:56.480 doesn't know it, but I get it. The dude hasn't 0:11:56.520 --> 0:11:58.440 had to learn the game because he's fucking seven feet tall. 0:11:59.080 --> 0:12:02.920 He's been guarded by dudes like six', eight six.' ten 0:12:03.480 --> 0:12:06.480 he's been a matchup problem his. Entire life he's never 0:12:06.600 --> 0:12:08.880 had to do anything else besides just show up and. 0:12:08.920 --> 0:12:11.760 Be athletic he's played only sixty nine minutes of. College 0:12:11.800 --> 0:12:13.720 ball what do you think you're gonna learn in that period? 0:12:13.760 --> 0:12:13.880 Of? 0:12:13.880 --> 0:12:18.720 Time Zero so, i'm, guessing though if at this point 0:12:19.120 --> 0:12:23.960 you haven't learned how to actually play, organized ball ball is, 0:12:24.000 --> 0:12:28.440 Not life. I'm guessing but this Is. About draymond do 0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:31.959 You think draymond has sympathy that his big man doesn't 0:12:32.000 --> 0:12:34.080 know how to play the game because he's been coasting 0:12:34.120 --> 0:12:37.120 on his athletic gifts his. ENTIRE life i don't. Think 0:12:37.160 --> 0:12:39.760 so do you think that's gonna stop him from Blowing 0:12:39.840 --> 0:12:42.720 up wiseman's spot in a primetime game when he, fucks 0:12:42.800 --> 0:12:47.600 up no. No chance but the truth is it doesn't 0:12:47.600 --> 0:12:50.439 Matter because wiseman's gonna get. His bread that's the way 0:12:50.440 --> 0:12:52.640 that the.

Down the 0:17:01.160 --> 0:17:07.680 road perennial talent and no incentive to? Do anything more 0:17:10.760 --> 0:17:12.360 do you think he's? Gonna do this do you think 0:17:12.359 --> 0:17:16.359 he's going to work hard when He's driving A bentley making, 0:17:17.680 --> 0:17:19.480 i don't know twenty five million, dollars a year living 0:17:19.520 --> 0:17:21.439 in a thirty, million dollar house waking Up Next to 0:17:21.480 --> 0:17:27.280 larissa pippin in. The, other room yeah, and, she's, like 0:17:27.320 --> 0:17:31.120 baby baby nah, nah nah nah, don't do that. DON'T 0:17:31.119 --> 0:17:33.959 do that.

To the facility We Chilling this. 0:17:39.160 --> 0:17:41.720 James wiseman THING the more i, think about it it 0:17:41.760 --> 0:17:45.359 could be a disaster for Real. FOR the warriors i 0:17:45.400 --> 0:17:48.080 Mean Great. For, james wiseman again they had their one 0:17:48.200 --> 0:17:51.440 chance to draft. The perennial talent they tanked for the, 0:17:51.520 --> 0:17:54.399 number two pick and. They blew it they Could Have, 0:17:54.400 --> 0:17:57.320 had LaMelo ball, a perfect fit a guy who very 0:17:57.480 --> 0:17:59.320 very clearly knows how to play the. Game of basketball, 0:17:59.600 --> 0:18:03.520 because Why Uh because LaVar ball was like having them 0:18:03.560 --> 0:18:06.919 dribble at eighteen months old and like they're literally watching. 0:18:07.000 --> 0:18:10.440 Film at four, all three guys all three of his SONS. 0:18:10.440 --> 0:18:16.840 In The Nba if LaVar Ball Was was, James Wiseman's 0:18:16.920 --> 0:18:21.480 dad james wiseman would be. A fucking monster he would 0:18:21.520 --> 0:18:25.080 be insane and that's No Shot to, James wiseman's family 0:18:25.119 --> 0:18:28.920 but that's that's How good. LaVar ball was all three 0:18:28.960 --> 0:18:31.280 of his SONS, in the nba and none of them 0:18:31.320 --> 0:18:34.520 have even a fraction of the Physical Gifts that. James 0:18:34.520 --> 0:18:39.280 wiseman has this dude Turns Out prodigy's so i'm not 0:18:39.320 --> 0:18:42.680 saying that. THIS is, inevitable i mean We Know that 0:18:42.760 --> 0:18:45.000 james Wiseman told the warriors he wanted to. Be the 0:18:45.000 --> 0:18:49.360 best at least he's. A good, Liar you Know He's not, Anthony, 0:18:49.480 --> 0:18:52.320 EDWARDS saying hey i got a lot of other. Interests 0:18:52.359 --> 0:18:57.159 besides basketball but there's a good chance that he's the, 0:18:57.200 --> 0:18:59.840 next by them and he'll be sitting on the bench 0:19:00.200 --> 0:19:03.240 for the next seven Years while the warriors have their 0:19:03.320 --> 0:19:07.000 cat being dragged down into the luxury tax, in deep 0:19:07.040 --> 0:19:09.239 water and all they'll be able to think about is 0:19:10.240 --> 0:19:13.800 why didn't We Just? Draft Lamello ball kyrie irving he, 0:19:13.840 --> 0:19:16.000 needed a pause but. He is back took, some time 0:19:16.000 --> 0:19:18.840 away did. Some important things not all of us are 0:19:18.840 --> 0:19:23.360 invited to know what, those Things Are, including steve nash 0:19:23.440 --> 0:19:28.040 but all of that is irrelevant now because. He is back, all, 0:19:28.080 --> 0:19:31.320 it took though was a Blockbuster Trade. For james harden 0:19:31.359 --> 0:19:34.439 a couple Of quotes from harden about how natural it 0:19:34.640 --> 0:19:37.520 was with him, and kad alone. All this chemistry we're, 0:19:37.560 --> 0:19:39.800 grown men now we don't need much. More than this 0:19:41.440 --> 0:19:44.960 after beating the number one Contender, in The east while 0:19:44.960 --> 0:19:47.560 giannis played a full forty minutes to try to, get 0:19:47.600 --> 0:19:51.879 that Win boy and kyrie all of a sudden, it, 0:19:51.960 --> 0:19:55.439 WAS like yo i gotta get back To work or 0:19:55.480 --> 0:19:58.959 i'm gonna End up in sacramento For deer and fox. 0:19:59.000 --> 0:20:04.480 And some. Picks that's facts so. They go back They 0:20:04.520 --> 0:20:07.800 go for. Kyrie's first, game you know he's all. About 0:20:07.800 --> 0:20:10.880 the universe his first game Back. Was against cleveland he's 0:20:10.880 --> 0:20:13.439 showing them showing him that he has a ring on. 0:20:13.480 --> 0:20:16.240 His ring finger it was only his third game playing 0:20:16.240 --> 0:20:18.199 there as a non cav third or fourth, something like 0:20:18.200 --> 0:20:18.639 that which was. 0:20:18.720 --> 0:20:20.160 Weird to me he likes to run from. 0:20:20.160 --> 0:20:22.760 Those, FORMER arenas yeah i.

Through colin sexton he was. 0:20:55.440 --> 0:20:58.840 The focal point it was him, and him alone a 0:20:58.880 --> 0:21:03.119 guy who just missed five games straight because his ankle. 0:21:03.280 --> 0:21:05.880 Was messed up not, A, GREAT. 0:21:05.600 --> 0:21:08.520 Start yeah i mean they WERE favored by i think 0:21:08.560 --> 0:21:11.359 ten and a half To.

James harden talks that's 0:25:09.359 --> 0:25:12.359 what made them really up there Ante To. Get james, 0:25:12.400 --> 0:25:18.200 harden you know it Just, seems like kyrie with whatever, 0:25:18.600 --> 0:25:21.760 he's dealing with he's not finding. Fulfillment WITH basketball SO 0:25:22.440 --> 0:25:24.400 i don't i don't know if this is a. Long term, thing, 0:25:24.560 --> 0:25:27.080 you know again last year he did this eight weeks 0:25:27.119 --> 0:25:28.600 where he went without speaking to the. 0:25:28.560 --> 0:25:30.360 Media just randomly had had. 0:25:30.400 --> 0:25:33.400 A shoulder, INJURY and again i don't mean to, kill 0:25:33.440 --> 0:25:35.800 this guy because it's clear that he's going through a, 0:25:35.800 --> 0:25:39.479 lot of stuff, BUT you know i just he's just 0:25:39.480 --> 0:25:40.960 too unpredictable for me to say. 0:25:41.000 --> 0:25:42.840 Anything about him you mentioned that. 0:25:44.359 --> 0:25:47.200 His time away was one of the reasons that they 0:25:47.240 --> 0:25:50.399 expedited the Trade. Deal for harden how do you feel 0:25:50.480 --> 0:25:54.159 or from, what you Know how is kyrie feeling about 0:25:54.240 --> 0:25:57.960 this hardened move and was he anticipating this move to 0:25:58.040 --> 0:26:02.320 happen prior to it actually. Become a. Reality, you're, Smiling. 0:26:03.040 --> 0:26:06.919 Well look I've Never seen. Kyrie irving, play you know 0:26:07.000 --> 0:26:10.520 he was The.

Third fiddle here he's gonna be the 0:26:15.720 --> 0:26:17.080 ringo star of the bunch and he's. 0:26:17.160 --> 0:26:17.680 Never done. 0:26:17.680 --> 0:26:21.040 That you know he's obviously always kind of Had control In. 0:26:21.119 --> 0:26:23.560 Cleveland and boston he was always one. Of THOSE guys 0:26:23.600 --> 0:26:25.359 so i honestly don't. 0:26:25.119 --> 0:26:28.120 Know where he. STANDS with this i do know that before. 0:26:27.840 --> 0:26:31.320 The season started in, The Aw season Kevin Durant and james, 0:26:31.320 --> 0:26:34.919 harden were talking and they were Very serious about Harden, 0:26:35.160 --> 0:26:37.760 coming TO brooklyn and i think it was one of 0:26:37.800 --> 0:26:40.360 those things where it was not a matter of, if 0:26:40.359 --> 0:26:43.679 it happens more so. When it, Happens and again harden 0:26:43.680 --> 0:26:46.160 thought he Was coming To. Brooklyn in november they thought. 0:26:46.160 --> 0:26:49.439 This WAS done so i Don't know if kyrie signed. 0:26:49.440 --> 0:26:50.800 OFF on this i don't know. 0:26:50.840 --> 0:26:53.679 WHERE he stands i know he didn't Sign Off on 0:26:53.760 --> 0:26:56.560 steve nash and that's been kind of a shaky, relationship, 0:26:56.560 --> 0:26:59.920 to start, so, YOU know again i don't know how 0:27:00.040 --> 0:27:01.720 he's going to feel about being the ringo star, of 0:27:01.720 --> 0:27:03.600 the bunch but he better get used to it because 0:27:04.720 --> 0:27:07.879 these are the circumstances he's, being THROWN into and i 0:27:07.920 --> 0:27:09.480 don't know what his future. 0:27:09.119 --> 0:27:11.920 Lies ahead if he pulls any. Of, these stunts again. 0:27:12.040 --> 0:27:13.639 A couple of things that you JUST mentioned that i 0:27:13.640 --> 0:27:18.200 want to. Follow Up on the first one is that 0:27:18.240 --> 0:27:21.240 this was already being in The works in November and 0:27:21.280 --> 0:27:24.360 that kyrie may or may not have known. About, Its 0:27:24.400 --> 0:27:28.240 existence right how did this all come? Into your purview, 0:27:28.240 --> 0:27:32.080 because everybody, Said, you know puccio, you're a fraud like 0:27:32.160 --> 0:27:34.359 you're making. This shit, Up you were you were the 0:27:34.520 --> 0:27:38.119 first person to report Not only DID kyrie and Kd, 0:27:38.320 --> 0:27:40.960 come into brooklyn but also this Thing. Back in november 0:27:40.960 --> 0:27:43.600 so give us the backstory into how you you got 0:27:43.840 --> 0:27:47.040 without revealing anything that, you can't reveal what can you 0:27:47.080 --> 0:27:50.440 share us spill. A, LITTLE tea YEAH i guess i 0:27:50.560 --> 0:27:50.880 was a, Little. 0:27:50.920 --> 0:27:53.639 TOO early tristan i know. 0:27:53.680 --> 0:27:56.520 HOW that goes i know. How that goes so it is. 0:27:56.560 --> 0:27:58.120 What it is but YOU know WHEN i when i 0:27:58.200 --> 0:27:59.199 was speaking to. 0:27:59.200 --> 0:28:01.440 People back and remember, it was, LIKE you. 0:28:01.400 --> 0:28:04.160 Know kd is spending a lot Of Time with James, 0:28:04.200 --> 0:28:06.399 harden in, california you Know Specifically. 0:28:06.400 --> 0:28:07.280 In beverly hill. 0:28:07.200 --> 0:28:09.280 They were they were working out and, they were partying 0:28:09.280 --> 0:28:10.360 they were having a, good time. 0:28:10.200 --> 0:28:12.840 Together and talk started. 0:28:12.840 --> 0:28:15.119 To PICK up like, i mentioned, Earlier You know james 0:28:15.160 --> 0:28:17.480 harden basically thought. 0:28:17.200 --> 0:28:18.639 That he was going to start the Season With. 0:28:18.680 --> 0:28:22.679 The brooklyn nets and there was A point where i 0:28:22.760 --> 0:28:26.320 had maybe, five six people all different, type of personnel people, 0:28:26.359 --> 0:28:29.760 that were involved players, that were involved that thought, this 0:28:29.960 --> 0:28:33.920 was done that this was. A verbal Agreement and then houston, 0:28:34.000 --> 0:28:35.439 kind of said, you know What we're not we're not 0:28:35.480 --> 0:28:37.120 Going to give brooklyn. What they want we're Not Gonna 0:28:37.160 --> 0:28:40.440 give james harden, what he wants and then it just 0:28:40.520 --> 0:28:44.600 kind of drew out obviously up. Until this, POINT and 0:28:44.640 --> 0:28:46.480 again i think it was one of Those where the 0:28:46.480 --> 0:28:49.440 nets felt like they need An Insurance for kevin Durant 0:28:49.800 --> 0:28:52.160 And if kyrie irving isn't going to be here or 0:28:52.160 --> 0:28:53.960 he's going to pull these stunts again two years in 0:28:54.000 --> 0:28:56.720 a row where he's just kind, of got missing they 0:28:56.720 --> 0:28:59.320 need someone there that's going to help win, a championship 0:28:59.440 --> 0:29:04.520 Now and again kyrie's inconsistency is just one of those 0:29:04.560 --> 0:29:07.120 examples of again we Need to. Go antie up and 0:29:07.400 --> 0:29:10.440 it became that bidding War between The Nets And sixers 0:29:11.080 --> 0:29:14.960 tillman Furtita And Dal maury Tillman furtita and mike D'Antoni 0:29:15.040 --> 0:29:15.760 is this is a Coach. 0:29:15.800 --> 0:29:16.760 With the nets so it. 0:29:16.840 --> 0:29:20.840 Was, a you know very dramatic and drawing out process 0:29:20.920 --> 0:29:22.120 that probably could have Been. 0:29:22.160 --> 0:29:26.680 Done, in november, YEAH it's. Interesting, I think yeah kyrie 0:29:26.880 --> 0:29:30.200 has never played a full. Eighty Two games kevin durant 0:29:30.240 --> 0:29:33.080 coming off of a. Soft tissue injury both of those 0:29:33.120 --> 0:29:36.600 guys have question marks in terms of how available they're 0:29:36.600 --> 0:29:39.640 going to be from a physical. And health standpoint We 0:29:39.720 --> 0:29:42.360 Know that james harden is durable we know that he 0:29:42.400 --> 0:29:44.720 can get fifty wins all by himself if he has 0:29:44.760 --> 0:29:47.560 to and do. The load, management so yeah that makes. 0:29:47.600 --> 0:29:50.880 Sense To me and james seems like a perfect fit 0:29:51.480 --> 0:29:56.240 in this system and obviously great. Relationship with D'Antoni and it, 0:29:56.320 --> 0:30:00.800 Seems to me anthony that D'Antoni is Running show in 0:30:00.840 --> 0:30:03.360 Brooklyn And. Not steve nash what is your. 0:30:03.360 --> 0:30:05.600 TAKE on that i would have to. 0:30:05.640 --> 0:30:07.920 AGREE with you i Would say that mike D'Antoni is 0:30:07.960 --> 0:30:09.200 more the Head Coach. 0:30:09.240 --> 0:30:09.640 Than Steve. 0:30:09.720 --> 0:30:12.520 Nash steve nash look not to discredit, him or anything 0:30:12.560 --> 0:30:15.680 but they fired a very Good Coach in kenny atkinson 0:30:15.720 --> 0:30:18.960 last year and they didn't promote a very good head 0:30:18.960 --> 0:30:21.120 Coach and jacqu waan who led them to a seven 0:30:21.160 --> 0:30:24.280 and three Record.

You pointing fingers 0:34:15.080 --> 0:34:16.640 nobody's gonna POINT them at kd and. 0:34:16.800 --> 0:34:20.480 And they, shouldn't you know IT'S having an mvp like. Season, 0:34:20.560 --> 0:34:23.880 right now again, a LITTLE early BUT i Think i 0:34:23.880 --> 0:34:26.040 think nash is definitely the scapegoat The Same way kenny 0:34:26.080 --> 0:34:28.759 atkinson was the. Escapegoat last year kyrie didn't, Play any 0:34:28.800 --> 0:34:30.839 games kad didn't, play any games and somehow the. Guy 0:34:30.920 --> 0:34:31.759 got fired. 0:34:31.880 --> 0:34:32.920 They made the playoffs and he. 0:34:33.000 --> 0:34:35.160 Somebody GOT fired, so i mean at the end, OF 0:34:35.160 --> 0:34:36.759 the day i think the coach is always, gonna get 0:34:36.760 --> 0:34:38.439 played but It won't be mike d'An tony. 0:34:38.520 --> 0:34:41.080 That, gets play yeah he's waiting right there, in the. Wings? 0:34:41.120 --> 0:34:43.880 Isn't he, Anthony oh, yeah oh yeah all those guys. 0:34:43.880 --> 0:34:45.480 Are They're all jock vaughan's. 0:34:45.560 --> 0:34:48.120 Right, THERE too, yeah i mean. 0:34:48.320 --> 0:34:49.279 You know they have. 0:34:49.360 --> 0:34:53.200 All the resources tell Me, about the size how does 0:34:53.239 --> 0:34:56.520 ownership play into. This whole equation obviously there's drama and 0:34:56.520 --> 0:34:58.640 obviously there's three guys who are gonna expect to get 0:34:58.640 --> 0:35:00.880 paid a. Lot of MONEY from, what I understand the 0:35:00.920 --> 0:35:03.759 size don't care at all about paying. The luxury tax 0:35:03.840 --> 0:35:08.080 they want the. Best of everything how would? You describe 0:35:08.160 --> 0:35:10.000 them and and the relationship the players. 0:35:10.040 --> 0:35:13.600 Have, with Them look the size have made, their presence 0:35:13.600 --> 0:35:16.319 felt and they made it fell. From day one the 0:35:16.320 --> 0:35:18.960 Whole Thing, with kenny atkinson they had a big part to. 0:35:18.960 --> 0:35:21.840 Do with that they they HEARD what K d And 0:35:21.920 --> 0:35:25.279 Kyrie and DeAndre, jordan were saying and They looked on 0:35:25.320 --> 0:35:27.359 twitter and saw that the fans are unhappy with him 0:35:27.400 --> 0:35:29.279 and they, said that's, it you know and they. 0:35:29.320 --> 0:35:33.800 Cut him quick so then with this this whole incident. 0:35:33.440 --> 0:35:35.959 And everything that, WAS going, on i, mean you know they're. 0:35:36.040 --> 0:35:39.520 Very hands on they they they were okay with whatever 0:35:39.640 --> 0:35:42.600 was Going on with, kyrie at first and then they 0:35:42.640 --> 0:35:46.919 saw That Video and joe sai was pissed like he 0:35:47.000 --> 0:35:49.400 was he was, Just fed up, like he said this is? 0:35:49.480 --> 0:35:51.760 This is it?

Over the place so 0:36:07.200 --> 0:36:09.440 When They, Hired Sean marks sean marks. 0:36:09.320 --> 0:36:11.120 Was really, like the owner he. Was the governor he 0:36:11.200 --> 0:36:11.640 was Kind. 0:36:11.480 --> 0:36:14.400 Of like Daryl Morey before tillman furtita came. 0:36:14.239 --> 0:36:18.040 In right right exactly exactly a lot of A lot 0:36:18.040 --> 0:36:18.520 Of nets. 0:36:18.520 --> 0:36:20.640 And rockets connections So. 0:36:21.560 --> 0:36:24.239 He so marx had this freedom and when he, had 0:36:24.280 --> 0:36:26.360 the freedom he was. Doing everything, right you know he 0:36:26.400 --> 0:36:28.520 turned a twenty win team into a forty. Two win 0:36:28.680 --> 0:36:32.200 team so what, you're seeing today but Now you know 0:36:32.320 --> 0:36:34.239 joe ci and ownership is. 0:36:34.160 --> 0:36:37.880 They have their. Hands on, EVERYTHING and Look. 0:36:37.680 --> 0:36:41.799 I know sean mars is now considered. An alternative governor he. 0:36:41.760 --> 0:36:43.880 Got he got like promoted last, week or. 0:36:43.880 --> 0:36:46.719 Something and the nets didn't. Publicly announce that so he. 0:36:46.880 --> 0:36:48.799 Still has power he still. Has to say but there 0:36:48.800 --> 0:36:52.200 are certain things, that have Happened Including the, kenny ATKINSON 0:36:52.239 --> 0:36:54.800 firing that I Don't think sean mars would have signed 0:36:54.800 --> 0:36:55.160 Off On. 0:36:55.200 --> 0:36:57.560 If mikyle prokarov was.

Been Waiting for 0:38:23.640 --> 0:38:26.480 James Harden, And kevin durant like. It's it's unbelievable and 0:38:26.960 --> 0:38:30.000 the Attraction That that james harden brings, on the court 0:38:30.080 --> 0:38:31.960 right those double teams and he's able to just kick 0:38:32.000 --> 0:38:34.239 It Out to kevin, durant open three kick It Out 0:38:34.280 --> 0:38:35.320 to joe harherd shooting. 0:38:35.360 --> 0:38:37.680 Fifty three, three you know it's. 0:38:37.719 --> 0:38:40.280 It's a LUXURY but now i have, to ask Myself 0:38:40.360 --> 0:38:43.399 like with kyrie coming into, THE mix again i mentioned 0:38:43.440 --> 0:38:46.680 that ringo star effect and not to mention. 0:38:48.080 --> 0:38:50.560 Two guys who really need the? Ball in, there you 0:38:50.600 --> 0:38:53.279 know is that going to disrupt this rhythm that. 0:38:53.320 --> 0:38:56.160 We've been, seeing you know They they handled milwaukee pretty. 0:38:56.160 --> 0:38:57.880 WELL last night i know it came down to the last, 0:38:58.040 --> 0:39:00.719 last second shot but they were Winning that whole but let's, Be. 0:39:00.719 --> 0:39:04.920 Real Too anthony james harden, hasn't played one hasn't practiced 0:39:05.000 --> 0:39:06.839 at all, with the team just came in like it 0:39:06.880 --> 0:39:09.760 was pick up and ran the box out. Of the, Gym. 0:39:09.800 --> 0:39:12.600 Yeah yeah and that shows how lethal they are and 0:39:12.600 --> 0:39:13.480 how much is rhythm. 0:39:13.520 --> 0:39:15.960 That They're in james harden is just happy, to be. 0:39:16.000 --> 0:39:18.520 Here like we IT look like I feel Like I'm 0:39:18.520 --> 0:39:20.720 WATCHING james harden i haven't, seen in years because. 0:39:20.719 --> 0:39:22.400 He's just happy. He's bought in he wants to. Win 0:39:22.440 --> 0:39:25.280 a championship he'll do. Whatever it takes so part. 0:39:25.160 --> 0:39:28.080 Of me is Like skeptical about kyrie coming back and messing, 0:39:28.160 --> 0:39:29.640 up the rhythm but part of me, is also, Like 0:39:31.000 --> 0:39:33.319 you know kai knows that he's kind of like on 0:39:33.440 --> 0:39:36.680 his last Leg here And Kad and james harden are 0:39:36.719 --> 0:39:39.600 going to be, his biggest supporters knowing that he's going 0:39:39.600 --> 0:39:43.759 through a rough time and they're gonna do everything they 0:39:45.120 --> 0:39:48.280 possibly can to make this work because there's that human 0:39:48.320 --> 0:39:50.120 side that does come out, and you right you're rooting 0:39:50.160 --> 0:39:51.799 for the, person as well and you want them. To 0:39:51.800 --> 0:39:54.719 get better basketball is supposed to be therapeutic. For these 0:39:54.719 --> 0:39:56.719 guys so it's kind of one of THOSE things where 0:39:56.719 --> 0:39:58.920 I feel Like harden and katie have to be, his 0:39:58.960 --> 0:40:02.120 biggest fans and he help him work his way into 0:40:02.200 --> 0:40:05.440 this offense and just like mentally get back into the space. 0:40:05.440 --> 0:40:08.759 Of WORKING well And kd and kyrie are, supposedly best 0:40:08.760 --> 0:40:12.719 friends so you would think that that would. Make things easier? 0:40:13.000 --> 0:40:15.960 Is that changing is it harder to be friends when 0:40:16.000 --> 0:40:17.800 you have to work? Together every day is there anything 0:40:17.800 --> 0:40:20.000 that you're? Knowing, about that, well. 0:40:19.840 --> 0:40:21.880 They, said you know you don't do, business, with friends 0:40:21.960 --> 0:40:29.759 right but that there was a little bit of a 0:40:29.760 --> 0:40:30.440 distent relationship. 0:40:30.440 --> 0:40:32.960 Between THEM too BUT i think kd Has his bad, 0:40:33.040 --> 0:40:36.040 No matter what kd's not. Here without him but it's 0:40:36.040 --> 0:40:37.319 also one of THOSE things, where, i like. 0:40:37.360 --> 0:40:39.280 Dude you, brought me here you Brought. ME to brooklyn 0:40:39.760 --> 0:40:40.160 i need. 0:40:40.200 --> 0:40:44.520 You with, ME so no i wouldn't really comment any further. 0:40:44.560 --> 0:40:48.040 On, THEIR relationship yeah i think that the part about basketball, 0:40:48.080 --> 0:40:50.560 for basketball, heads you know this isn't a podcast that 0:40:50.600 --> 0:40:52.279 breaks down. X's AND no's but i was talking to 0:40:52.320 --> 0:40:54.840 somebody earlier and The time that kyrie was really the 0:40:54.840 --> 0:40:57.600 most effective was when he Played for the calves and 0:40:57.600 --> 0:40:59.360 he was sort of coming. Off the Ball it was 0:40:59.400 --> 0:41:02.600 braun bringing, The ball up kyrie not. Taking THE hits 0:41:03.000 --> 0:41:05.520 that I Think now james harden can, take you know he's. 0:41:05.600 --> 0:41:09.760 Much More durable kyrie irving has, issues with durability especially 0:41:09.800 --> 0:41:11.680 when he has to be the one to shoulder the 0:41:11.680 --> 0:41:15.040 burden and be the focal point. Of the offense And Instead, 0:41:15.040 --> 0:41:18.279 of kevin love Now You. Have KEVIN durant so i 0:41:18.320 --> 0:41:22.040 think that possibly could be an Ideal scenario if. Kyrie 0:41:22.200 --> 0:41:25.880 buys in is that kind Of what the nets are 0:41:25.960 --> 0:41:28.120 thinking or are they thinking that kay is going to 0:41:28.200 --> 0:41:30.040 go back to being The one and james is about to. 0:41:30.040 --> 0:41:33.440 BE the, Two I mean kevin durant said That He 0:41:33.520 --> 0:41:36.040 sees james harden as. A point Guard So if kevin, 0:41:36.120 --> 0:41:38.319 DURANT says, that I believe and i think that's the 0:41:38.360 --> 0:41:41.439 best possible solution for them is to have hard and bring. 0:41:41.520 --> 0:41:44.000 Up the, ball but again it's one of Those things 0:41:44.000 --> 0:41:45.680 where kyrie is used to having the ball. 0:41:45.719 --> 0:41:47.640 In his ends he's used to driggling. Out THE clock 0:41:47.800 --> 0:41:50.920 so i have to watch. THEM play together i. 0:41:50.880 --> 0:41:52.520 Have to see him off the ball and see, if 0:41:53.040 --> 0:41:55.839 look again you mentioned. A good point he played well 0:41:55.840 --> 0:41:59.280 off The. Ball in cleveland But with, this nets team 0:42:00.719 --> 0:42:03.640 superstar egos and all that, TYPE of stuff i just 0:42:04.160 --> 0:42:06.160 have to see. Them play together there's no doubt that. 0:42:06.200 --> 0:42:08.160 It could work when it, comes to talent. They have 0:42:08.320 --> 0:42:10.960 it it's just a matter. Of buying, IT right now 0:42:11.000 --> 0:42:11.879 i know two out of three. 0:42:11.880 --> 0:42:12.480 Guys, about it. 0:42:13.400 --> 0:42:16.160 Yeah no doubt let's talk about you. For a second 0:42:16.320 --> 0:42:18.799 tell me about how you got in got. Into THE 0:42:18.840 --> 0:42:21.359 business so i. 0:42:21.520 --> 0:42:24.759 WAS well, TRISTA i mean i could beat, AROUND the 0:42:24.760 --> 0:42:25.120 bush i. 0:42:25.120 --> 0:42:27.279 Could be real honest. With you know it's one of those. 0:42:27.320 --> 0:42:31.400 Types OF things but i was in HIGH school. 0:42:31.080 --> 0:42:33.080 AND i felt i felt to. 0:42:33.120 --> 0:42:35.640 Some part, Ships you know i've gotten evicted.

Kyrie did, it you know 0:48:57.560 --> 0:49:00.520 he's got. Things to accomplish she ended up by The 0:49:00.560 --> 0:49:04.840 Family Of.

High leverage situation they're not going to care 0:49:22.520 --> 0:49:27.120 about Winning Against the cleveland cavaliers On a, Random wednesday. 0:49:27.239 --> 0:49:29.760 Night no shot they're gonna show up for the games 0:49:29.760 --> 0:49:32.560 that they think, are statement games and they're gonna mail 0:49:32.640 --> 0:49:35.719 the rest in doesn't matter.
