James Harden has 27 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 4: a lot to prove because in the playoffs he's either 28 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 4: gotten hurt or he just hasn't performed the way he 29 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 4: has in the regular season, and so the NBA playoffs 30 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 4: they start to I'm excited.

Easter Conference 35 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 4: and we'll get in and who do you see winning 36 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 4: it all? So much can happen between now and then, 37 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 4: but each conference, who you guys like? 38 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: Man? You know what? 39 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,079 Speaker 5: I think it's gonna be, you know, real tough this 40 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 5: year for the Eastern Conference. With how well the Milwaukee 41 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 5: Bucks have been playing as of late, I just think 42 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,359 Speaker 5: the only reason why they didn't win the World Championship 43 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 5: last year because the injury to Chris Middleton. And now 44 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 5: he's back healthy and I'm just looking at the Boston Celtics, 45 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 5: Jason Tatum and Jalen Brown. They are on the send 46 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 5: of being two superstar players, a superstar duo playing together, 47 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 5: but it just seems in a big game that they've 48 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 5: been streaky and they haven't been consistently superstar players throughout 49 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 5: these seriess which they play in. And then you have 50 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 5: the Philadelphia Eagles. I mean, Philadelphia seventy six is who 51 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,519 Speaker 5: you just said, Jorden b who I think, no doubt 52 00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 5: who led the league with thirty three points first then 53 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 5: scoring it. He is the m v P for this year. 54 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 5: But with all that being said, man, I just really 55 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 5: think it's gonna be tough. It's gonna be a good 56 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 5: Eastern Conference, but the Milwaukee Buck I think gonna come 57 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 5: out of the East. And if I'm looking at the 58 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 5: Western Conference right now, I mean, it's pretty much up 59 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 5: in the air. You really just don't I don't think 60 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 5: that the Lakers will beat the the the Memphis in 61 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 5: the first round. I think that I think the Memphis 62 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 5: Gillies are gonna knock the Lakers out. I don't know 63 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:31,919 Speaker 5: how everybody else is he is gonna be feeling about 64 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 5: that older League. You think the League is gonna let 65 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 5: that happen. The Memphis Grillies are going to have to 66 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 5: beat the Lakers convincently if they want to move on 67 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 5: to the second round. You just can't count You just 68 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 5: can't count out Denver and the Golden State Warriors. I 69 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 5: think that's gonna be the Western Conference Final for the 70 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 5: Western Conference, and I think that series can go either way. 71 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 3: I think it's got to be Boston and Phoenix TJ. 72 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 3: I honestly do to answer the question, I like the 73 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 3: amount of talent that they have in Phoenix. KD has 74 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:20,040 Speaker 3: the opportunity to get from underneath the shadow of him 75 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 3: being a product of Golden State, which maybe you don't 76 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 3: get out of that shadow because it just is what 77 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 3: it is. 78 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 1: Golden get out of that shadow. 79 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 5: Because you joined Devin Booker, who was one of the 80 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 5: most lethal shooters in the game. 81 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 3: No, no, yeah, but they're not as dominant as as 82 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 3: Golden State was when when KD was able to be 83 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 3: that guy for them and they won the championships together there. 84 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,679 Speaker 3: I think he can he can honestly say that he's 85 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 3: good by himself. I mean, let's say it's a debate 86 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 3: and I know, people say, well, he can say he's 87 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,799 Speaker 3: good about himself, well, win a championship and be good 88 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 3: without being with Steph Curry in the conversation because he 89 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 3: wasn't able to do it in Okay, see, and he 90 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 3: had Russ and Harden and and what was my man 91 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 3: down low? 92 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: They were all young then man surge Obaka, Yeah, I appreciate. 93 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 3: I just I think that this is a great golden opportunity, 94 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 3: a moment to get hot for Phoenix and pull it out. 95 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 3: That's what I think pass But outside of that, I 96 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 3: think it's Boston's time, and and it needs to be 97 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 3: Boston's time. You're talking about Jalen and and Tatum emerging 98 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 3: as megastars and as a mega duo. It's time for 99 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 3: them to take that next step. Like, yes, Milwaukee is 100 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 3: playing well. They are playing very well, and I would 101 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 3: not be surprised if Milwaukee ended up back in the championship. 102 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:51,279 Speaker 3: And you could honestly put Giannis in that conversation for 103 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 3: MVP as well, and I wouldn't have a problem with 104 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 3: him getting the MVP, especially over some of the other 105 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,719 Speaker 3: conversations that are taking place. But with that being said, 106 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 3: I think it's time for Boston to take that next step. 107 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 3: It's the possibility that they could. They're healthy. It seems 108 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 3: to me that they should take a next step forward 109 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 3: and make it into the finals. But if Phoenix does 110 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,720 Speaker 3: what they're supposed to do, I could see them making 111 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 3: that run and going into the finals and matching up 112 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 3: with Boston and probably being able to edge them out. 113 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 4: What you said, Levo, I can't really disagree with. I 114 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 4: believe in the Western Conference and I'm biased. I want 115 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 4: to see the Lakers win. But the way we had 116 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,239 Speaker 4: to play that playing game against Minnesota and come from behind. 117 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 4: If Kat doesn't get in foul trouble, I don't know 118 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 4: how that game turns out. I'm optimistic we can beat Memphis. 119 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 4: It's not gonna be easy with with the athleticism that 120 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 4: they have. If Ad can show up consistently they stay 121 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,359 Speaker 4: injury free, I can see the Lakers pull it out. 122 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 4: But for me, the best team in the Western Conference 123 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 4: is the Phoenix Suns. If Kat is healthy, they're the 124 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 4: best team in the Western Conference, and they get a 125 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 4: tough test immediately in the first round playing the Phoenix 126 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,119 Speaker 4: Suns right out the gate. They're gonna I mean, playing 127 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 4: Los Angeles Slippers and Kawhi Leonard Paul George isn't playing, 128 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 4: will he come back? 129 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: Who knows? 130 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 4: But if they win that that series, then they'll play 131 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 4: the number one see which is which will be the 132 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 4: Denver Nuggets. And so I also see them winning that 133 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 4: game is that series as well, And so I also 134 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 4: see the Phoenix Suns coming out the West. If we 135 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 4: when I say we the Lakers, if we can't get 136 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 4: our stuff together. 137 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 1: Now in the. 138 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 4: Eastern Conference, there's just so many good teams, man, you know, 139 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 4: like I say, the Sixers, they're about to play the 140 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 4: brook and Nets. They're about to kick off here in 141 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 4: a minute or tip off, not kickoff, hip off here 142 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 4: in a little bit. But we would assume it's gonna 143 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 4: come down to three teams, Milwaukee, the Boston Celtics, or 144 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 4: the Philadelphia seventy six. 145 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: And still the Miami Heat. 146 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 4: No, the Miami Heat, No, no, no, no, no tough out. 147 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 4: The Miami he tough out you know who the Miami 148 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 4: he played is gonna be a tough out. You know 149 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 4: who the Miami he played, right they playing Milwaukee O 150 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 4: thk for to one, going home for one. That's gonna 151 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 4: be the series for to one. Going home and the 152 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 4: Cats and Knicks. That's gonna be the best series. First 153 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 4: round series, I believe the playoffs. So both teams non factors. 154 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 4: That's gonna be a really good series. 155 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 1: Lakers, Lakers, Gris, non factors. They will be entertaining series. 156 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:48,719 Speaker 1: Enjoy them. You really wait that right now? Bro? No, 157 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not enjoy them the truth. Enjoy them 158 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 1: for what they are. 159 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 3: But I'm just telling you, in the grand scheme of 160 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 3: winning it all, those are non factor, non factor series. 161 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 1: First, I don't know about that, but I will. 162 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 3: I mean, who's who out of those teams are going 163 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:16,959 Speaker 3: to legitimately contend for the championship? The Lakers, no way. 164 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 4: We just they're not making not making it out of 165 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 4: this series, making it out of this serious Listen, Western Conference, 166 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,199 Speaker 4: you got a chance. I like the Phoenix Suns. Just 167 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 4: the Phoenix Sons are good at KD. Devin Booker, you 168 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 4: get up all either one of them, dudes, they getting 169 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 4: a bucket. You got eight and in the middle that 170 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 4: can play good defense, block shots, rebound, and so you 171 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 4: got Chris Paul who can run a team if they 172 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 4: can stay healthy. When I say they, Devin Booker has 173 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 4: missed time with a ham shringer. Obviously, kd with his 174 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 4: knee and then his ankle. Chris Paul during the playoffs 175 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 4: has had hamstring injuries as well, so if they need 176 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 4: to stay healthy, the Eastern Conference is the one where 177 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 4: it's I believe Phoenix is the best team in the 178 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 4: Western Conference, but the Eastern just some people will say 179 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 4: the Bucks, some people will say the Celtics. You may 180 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 4: get a few that say Philly. But it's gonna come 181 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 4: down to the Bucks in the Boston Celtics. Who's going 182 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 4: to represent the Eastern Conference. And I agree with that. 183 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 4: That's what it's gone down to. 184 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 1: And it's gonna come down to Golden State and Phoenix 185 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 1: in the West. That's what I mean, I believe. 186 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 3: And I know it's crazy because if you go to 187 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 3: the betting odds, the odds makers, they have it set 188 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 3: up that way and some of them as well. But 189 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,839 Speaker 3: I think they got it right. I mean, I've been 190 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 3: known to disagree. I've wanted to go with on Golden State, man, 191 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 3: I've wanted to go with Philly. I'll say that. I'll 192 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 3: say that's plex. If it's not Phoenix, it's Golden State. 193 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 3: If it's not Phoenix, it's Golden State. That's what I'll 194 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 3: say out of the West. If it's not Phoenix, it's 195 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 3: Golden State. But if it's not Boston, it could be 196 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:50,560 Speaker 3: the seventy six ers or the Bucks. 197 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 5: In my opinion, Conference Finals, Denver Nuggets, Golden State Warriors, 198 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 5: Western Conference Finals. 199 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 4: Man, y'all really up on Golden State. They y'all like, 200 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 4: make that make Golden State. 201 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,840 Speaker 1: They can't beat the Phoenix Suns. You can't count them out, 202 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:11,960 Speaker 1: kill them out. I have Phoenix winning at all. So listen, listen, dude. 203 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 4: Do people not take into account when I say people 204 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 4: I'm talking to Plexica on others? Do you guys not 205 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 4: take into account that Andrew Wiggins hasn't played in two months. 206 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 4: Andrew Wiggins will now be back playing, and people can say, oh, 207 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 4: Steph Curry when he last year, he wasn't read, he 208 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 4: was coming off injury. 209 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 1: He let Jordan Poole start. 210 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 4: I believe it was three games and didn't make a 211 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 4: big Jonathan Kuminga and Jordan Poole their playing time now 212 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:44,079 Speaker 4: will be affected because Wiggins is coming back to play. 213 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 4: I don't care what anybody says that's gonna bother them 214 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 4: they're going to not like these decisions that they're being made. 215 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 4: Now they'll play, they have no choice, but they're not. 216 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: Don't like that. Say that again, you sound like a Lakers. 217 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 1: I'm sounding like somebody that's been in the locker room. 218 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: Like you. 219 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 4: Guys, you've been playing for two months, consistent playing time, 220 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 4: and now the playoffs about the starting, you don't know 221 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 4: what's gonna happen.

But the goal was, 287 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 6: you know, to come here and have that possibility to 288 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 6: play with them, and I'm excited about that opportunity. 289 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 4: Before you signed, you didn't get any assurances from Lamar 290 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 4: that you got. 291 00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 1: Any pointing to go this year. 292 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 6: I didn't get any insurances for anything. You know, life's 293 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 6: uncertain to me. It just was excited about the possibility 294 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 6: of that. You know, my thoughts would be that he 295 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 6: would be here. I know that these two want them 296 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 6: to be here. You know, at the end of the day, 297 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 6: that's that's going to be up to them. 298 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 5: Man I love what people put on front of microphone 299 00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 5: and put on for the camera. Man Old, I haven't 300 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 5: been signing this contract to go play with Lamar Jackson. 301 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 5: He just he just had a few weeks ago that 302 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 5: he didn't he didn't know where all the the news 303 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 5: was coming from that he wanted twenty million dollars a year, 304 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 5: but four ain't enough. But fifteen definitely is for one 305 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 5: more than this man. Let me tell you something. He 306 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 5: wouldn't have got that money anywhere else. For one season 307 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 5: making fifteen million dollars a year, especially coming off to 308 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 5: ACLS and with injuries, he could get out eighteen million. 309 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 1: So he hit a home run. So he did. 310 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 5: If you're looking at getting back, you know, obviously you 311 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 5: know he's a tremendous talent where everybody knows how good 312 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 5: he is. When he was in his prime, he was 313 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:07,920 Speaker 5: probably one of the top, you know, two or three 314 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,439 Speaker 5: players as his position. But in everything that he's been 315 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 5: through in the past couple of years, everybody wants to 316 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 5: see him get back to that. Will he do that 317 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,400 Speaker 5: with Lamar Jackson, I don't think so. From a numbers 318 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 5: and catches in yard staff or everybody knows how dynamic 319 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 5: he is once he catches the football, But we're talking 320 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 5: about Lamar Jackson, who is He's not the most accurate 321 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 5: of quarterbacks, but he's going to be able to get 322 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 5: obj to football and we all know that. We don't 323 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 5: know if Lamar Jackson is going to be there the 324 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:47,480 Speaker 5: following season. So I believe that OBJ signed his contract 325 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,440 Speaker 5: because it's a one year, fifteen million dollar deal, not 326 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 5: even really caring if Lamar Jackson was going to be 327 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 5: there or not be Absolutely, I don't think he would 328 00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:00,719 Speaker 5: have gotten that money anywhere else playing for one season. 329 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 1: Go ahead, DJ, I'm looking at it the same. 330 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,919 Speaker 4: He didn't want four million, nobody was offering twenty and 331 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 4: then it's really one year, eighteen million, three million in 332 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 4: his sentence, and those incentives, I don't know if you 333 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 4: looked at him, they're they're doable, very doable, very reachable, 334 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 4: and so you would assume he's gonna make eighteen million 335 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 4: for one year. That's why he signed with the Lamar 336 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 4: the quarterback, great, Lamar not the quarterback great though, I'm 337 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:37,960 Speaker 4: getting this eighteen mil. And that's what Odell was thinking. If, 338 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 4: of course, would you like Lamar to be the quarterback? Yeah, 339 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 4: but if he isn't, I'm getting the money that I wanted. 340 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:47,160 Speaker 4: Like I wanted twenty million, I'm basically getting twenty mil. 341 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 5: It could have been in Houston, Texans, he'd have signed 342 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:50,360 Speaker 5: with them. 343 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 4: It could have been outset a team in the USFL. 344 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 4: He would have signed with them, XFL he would have 345 00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,399 Speaker 4: signed with them, didn't matter. 346 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: I'm with you guys on that. 347 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 3: But now take it a step further, right, how did 348 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 3: OBJ get that offer? 349 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,679 Speaker 1: And I know, I mean, we know Lamar. There's been 350 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: a tweet right out. 351 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 3: So Ryan sent us to tweet and it was showing 352 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:17,119 Speaker 3: that the report that Lamar Jackson told the Ravens he 353 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:21,479 Speaker 3: wanted them to acquire Odell and Hopkins DeAndre Hopkins and 354 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 3: then we could talk. So I'm just wondering what that 355 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 3: being said. I agree with y'all, we know why OBJ 356 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 3: took this deal. It's for the money, get the cash 357 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 3: and run, you. 358 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 1: Know what I mean. 359 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:37,880 Speaker 3: But why did he get this offer that nobody else 360 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,439 Speaker 3: is going to offer so seemingly If it's because Lamar 361 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 3: Jackson's influence led to this offer taking place, then. 362 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 1: God Lee, Obj, you better come out a little bit 363 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:50,400 Speaker 1: more definitive than that. 364 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,440 Speaker 3: There is no certainties and life happens this way and 365 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 3: da da da. 366 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 4: And because he wanted to say I got the money 367 00:19:58,080 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 4: that I wanted, so it really don't matter. 368 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 1: Tell them to say it again, that's what he wanted 369 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 1: to say. You just got you the money. 370 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 3: You got the money because because of Lamar Jackson wanting 371 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 3: him there. 372 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 1: So now you need to We don't know that for sure. 373 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 3: We don't know that for sure, but we don't know 374 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 3: that he came there for the money. 375 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 5: But if they do laying DeAndre Hopkins, now we got 376 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:26,440 Speaker 5: a pot of walk. We gonna see what's gonna happen 377 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 5: after that. 378 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,479 Speaker 3: I just I know they're not going to bring in 379 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 3: DeAndre Hopkins. I'm sure of that. But what's this, I'm 380 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 3: just sure of it. I mean, I'm not sure of it. 381 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,160 Speaker 3: I mean, you can never be sure of it. That's life, right, 382 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,360 Speaker 3: you know what I mean, anything could happen, anyone could 383 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:45,679 Speaker 3: get it. 384 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw I was doing I was actually playing 385 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 1: on they said. 386 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 4: I mean at the point when you when you give 387 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 4: somebody that amount of money, you it's like, whatever happens happens. 388 00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,200 Speaker 4: I'm oh, I thought I was gonna be catching paths 389 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 4: from Lamar whoever for the quarterback I'm good with. And 390 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 4: that's a fact. That's a fact. What he like to 391 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 4: play with Lamarrow, I'm sure. But he's not tripping at all. 392 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 4: Because as many people and I'm as many people that 393 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 4: said Oh, he's not getting nowhere near twenty million. 394 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 1: That shocks me. Okay, that shocks me. 395 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,880 Speaker 5: So if you're obj and you get this off of 396 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 5: this one year fifteen million dollars which we have liked 397 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 5: to likely to be earn incentives, which he can get 398 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 5: the eighteen million, or you can sign with Baltimore. Or 399 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 5: do you go to the Jets if they signed a 400 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,400 Speaker 5: Rogers and they offer you one year five million, where 401 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 5: do you think he's going? 402 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 4: You, man, at this point in your career, you you 403 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,719 Speaker 4: gotta go get the most money, and that that's just 404 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:50,440 Speaker 4: what it is. One year's five million and one year 405 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 4: fifteen million. Man, I'll walk to Baltimore. 406 00:21:56,040 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: I'm walking, like what. I like you a lot, but 407 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,440 Speaker 1: I don't on the. 408 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:06,119 Speaker 4: Way if I can get a ride, but if I can't, 409 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 4: I commute with these with ten toes. I get there 410 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 4: when I get there, true truth, Like it's a it's 411 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 4: a no brainer. Like because you know he had a 412 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:19,400 Speaker 4: meeting with the Jets. What are we meeting about? Tell 413 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:21,120 Speaker 4: me how much you're gonna offer me. We ain't got 414 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 4: a meeting. I'm gonna tell you yes or no. But 415 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 4: that meeting was because they weren't gonna offer him nowhere 416 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 4: near fifteen million. 417 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 1: Nobody saw that coming. 418 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 4: No, And so if I'm Lamar, It's like, what do 419 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 4: I think about this? You give him fifteen million, I 420 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 4: can't get what I want? 421 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:44,159 Speaker 1: Does that? Does that bother him? Or is he just 422 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:48,160 Speaker 1: like whatever? No? I don't think it really bothers them. 423 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 5: I think did the Baltimore Ravens have a pretty good 424 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,920 Speaker 5: sense of that. Lamar is going to be the quarterback 425 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 5: moving forward. But it's not a it's not a long 426 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 5: term deal with the o y instration of imagination. I 427 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 5: just think that whoever his agent was, did a really 428 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:08,400 Speaker 5: great job of getting him this contract. And I don't 429 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 5: think it's going to bother him at all moving forward 430 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 5: because la Mars looking more long term deal and guaranteed money, 431 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 5: and I don't think no one year is gonna go 432 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 5: and affect him at all. 433 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:24,359 Speaker 4: Man, this is gonna get interesting because what happens with 434 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 4: Lamar we don't know. 435 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: That's why we love football. 436 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 4: Great season, I'm sure we got eye long on trend 437 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 4: and what's going on in the playoffs. I low these 438 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,160 Speaker 4: sixers and these nets just tipped off. 439 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,120 Speaker 7: Not a lot of shots falling fellows, but the Sixers 440 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,679 Speaker 7: have a seventeen to sixteen lead over Brooklyn four h 441 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 7: four left to play in the first quarter. Philadelphia a 442 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,640 Speaker 7: one point lead despite the fact that they're shooting twenty 443 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 7: seven percent from the field while the Nets are shooting 444 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 7: fifty eight percent from the field, cover it up next 445 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 7: to three point thirty. Eastern two seed Boston host seven 446 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 7: seed Atlanta on Friday night. Miami captured the eight seed 447 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 7: in the Eastern Conference with a victory over the Chicago Bulls, 448 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 7: so the Heat will face one seed Milwaukee in round 449 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 7: one on Sunday, while the Minnesota Timberwolves won the eighth 450 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 7: seed of the and the Western Conference with a twenty 451 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 7: five point win over Oklahoma City.

As I said 644 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:10,239 Speaker 4: prior to the break, Jokic, MBI, Jannis MVP finalists. I've 645 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:12,799 Speaker 4: kind of already told you what I believe and who 646 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:22,840 Speaker 4: I believe should win this award. LeVar MVP a National 647 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:24,319 Speaker 4: Basketball Association. 648 00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:30,440 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you. I mean, I'm saying I'm saying it. 649 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:34,360 Speaker 3: Should go to MB because it probably could have and 650 00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 3: should have maybe before now, and he's been in line 651 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:40,960 Speaker 3: to get it. But with that being said, I do 652 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 3: think that Jannis is. 653 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:49,800 Speaker 1: Is that dude? Like he is? He is that dude? 654 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 3: And then my last point before I turn it over 655 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 3: to y'all is if if Djoki was to get it again, 656 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 3: what does that do for the conversation of goat conversation? 657 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:09,280 Speaker 3: Because even the goat of goats have never received MVP 658 00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:14,759 Speaker 3: three times? So and maybe maybe it's what three is 659 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:16,719 Speaker 3: a three consecutive times three consecutive? 660 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 1: Nobody has consecutive? I mean, it's joke. It is he 661 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 1: that good? Is he that good? Like? The conversation has 662 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:28,920 Speaker 1: to be Is he that good? 663 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 3: Where he's actually in contention to get it three times? 664 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,480 Speaker 1: And being that type of conversation. No, not three in 665 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:37,759 Speaker 1: a row. 666 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 5: He's no, He's definitely in contention, no doubt to win 667 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 5: another MVP because to my recollection, the top three choices 668 00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 5: are Joel and be Joannis and Jokers. So you just 669 00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:00,920 Speaker 5: look at what uh, you just look at what Embiid 670 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:02,279 Speaker 5: has been able to do over the year. 671 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 1: Man. 672 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:05,120 Speaker 5: I think he's the first center, first big man since 673 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:08,720 Speaker 5: Shack in nineteen ninety nine to lead the league in scoring. 674 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 5: It's been a guard driven league for the past, you know, 675 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:19,680 Speaker 5: twenty years. But to your case, LeVar Jannis has led 676 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:24,239 Speaker 5: Milwaukee to the best recing in basketball and you can't 677 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,719 Speaker 5: dispute that. And it could go to either three of 678 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 5: these young men, and I don't think anybody would have 679 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,839 Speaker 5: an issue with it based off of the seasons that 680 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 5: they have put forth foot forth for everybody to witness. 681 00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 5: And I would love to see Jordan be winning because 682 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:43,239 Speaker 5: I think he deserves it. All three of them deserve it. 683 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,960 Speaker 5: But when you're talking about Goats and young and Jokic 684 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 5: being able to win a third win in a row, 685 00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 5: I think that's one of the reasons why he won't 686 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:57,240 Speaker 5: get it this year because it's been a lot of great, 687 00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:00,880 Speaker 5: great basketball players over the last cent ain't nobody's been 688 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 5: able to do it. But if I'm going to give 689 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 5: it to somebody, oh Man, evenbead All, Yannis, I wouldn't 690 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 5: have a problem with it. Or they could give up 691 00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 5: like they did Peyton Mann and three with Steve McNeill. 692 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: They gave off co MVP. I remember that. Yeah, that'd 693 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:21,279 Speaker 1: be tough if they do that. 694 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:25,880 Speaker 4: And you can't go Gianni's And I believe in Minnie's 695 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:28,880 Speaker 4: eyes as the best player in the NBA, that's no question. 696 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 1: And what he does is just looks so easy. 697 00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:35,400 Speaker 4: I think it's almost like, oh, we just can't just 698 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:37,840 Speaker 4: keep giving it to Janni's. We just can't keep giving 699 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:40,239 Speaker 4: him the MVP. He gonna get you thirty and ten 700 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 4: every night. On a bad night, he gonna get you 701 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 4: twenty seven. And so I think it comes down to 702 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 4: they're just tired of giving it to Janni's now. It's 703 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:55,759 Speaker 4: just kind of how they were tired of giving it 704 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:56,320 Speaker 4: to Lebron. 705 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,160 Speaker 1: You know, you got tiring it of giving it to Yoki. 706 00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:02,000 Speaker 4: You mean no, no, no, no, I'm talking about with Giannis 707 00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:07,280 Speaker 4: because I felt like Jokic is putting up good numbers, 708 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 4: but his team when when you look at the NBA, 709 00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 4: if he was to win three MVPs in a row, 710 00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:20,040 Speaker 4: and say forty to fifty years from now, somebody was 711 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 4: researching the NBA, you would swear up now Jokic was 712 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 4: by far and away the best player in the NBA 713 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:25,320 Speaker 4: during that time period. 714 00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:26,279 Speaker 1: If you didn't know, you know. 715 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:26,440 Speaker 4: You know. 716 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 5: The crazy thing is to me is the MVP is 717 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 5: like a different vote in a different race based on 718 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 5: the NFL. In the NBA, when you say MVP for 719 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,000 Speaker 5: the NBA, you're talking about the whole league, the best 720 00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,440 Speaker 5: player in the world. But when you're talking about MVP 721 00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:43,320 Speaker 5: for NFL team, it's like the best player on the team. 722 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, the best player on that team. Yeah right, But 723 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 4: he's not the best player in the NFL a lot 724 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 4: of the times anyway. But it's think about that fifty 725 00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 4: years from now, Jokic was to win this MVP and 726 00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:58,359 Speaker 4: you'd say, oh, let me see what was the best 727 00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:00,880 Speaker 4: players in the league, And somebody's oh, he one three MVPs. 728 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 4: He for sure is one of the greatest players. He 729 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 4: was the best player of that generation. And I don't 730 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 4: believe that's the case. He has yet to win a championship. 731 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 4: Giannis Is won one. Let's see what happens, but my 732 00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 4: pick will be Joel and be just the way he's 733 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:17,840 Speaker 4: kind of put the sigons on his back. We'll be 734 00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:21,320 Speaker 4: back next week up on Game, Fox Sports Radio, LaVerne's 735 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 4: and Foxico. 736 00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:24,759 Speaker 1: TJ. S. Mazzada will see y'all next week
