1
00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:05,800
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio. Hello, welcome in side

2
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:09,479
Speaker 1: our three, The Jason Smith Show with my best friend

3
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 1: Mike Harmon. This time it counts as we wind up

4
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: closing in on the NBA trade deadline. Just a few

5
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:21,759
Speaker 1: minutes ago saw a big one go down. The Warriors

6
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 1: trade Jonathan Kaminga and Buddy Heal to the Hawks. They

7
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 1: get Chris tops Porzingis back as we mentioned a few

8
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:31,600
Speaker 1: minutes ago. Okay, they had to get rid of Kaminga, Okay,

9
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:35,200
Speaker 1: but this kind of takes him out of going after Giannis.

10
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: The Knicks and the Warriors both seemingly out of the

11
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:43,240
Speaker 1: Yannes sweepstakes. I can't see Yannis getting dealt by tomorrow.

12
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:46,879
Speaker 1: It'll be in the off season. But still some other

13
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: big names out there potentially could get moved. Rick Buker

14
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 1: told us John Moran suddenly there might be a market

15
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 1: for him. So still gonna be a pretty active deadline.

16
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 1: But I think when it's all said and done tomorrow

17
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 1: we'll be talking about other deals, other moves. We may

18
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 1: have already seen. The biggest moves we get with a

19
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 1: D and James Harden getting dealt, and Gianni is still

20
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: gonna wind up being a buck.

21
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, as we looked at the Yannest perspective,

22
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 2: you know, over the last week or so, going back

23
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 2: to the Miami rumor that was out there, you know,

24
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 2: the old Jack Nicholson movie of maybe this is as

25
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 2: good as it gets right this, and you looked at

26
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 2: that package like, are there any any guys that are

27
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,839
Speaker 2: earth shattering? You know that that really would make people

28
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 2: feel okay about Giannis being gone. Tyler Hero is a

29
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 2: good player. He's not that guy, right, He's part of

30
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,119
Speaker 2: that twenty nineteen draft class. We've watched his act. He's

31
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 2: a twenty eight game scorer. Occasionally we'll have one of those.

32
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 2: He's on fire from three kind of nights, but some

33
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 2: injury history gone. The Jah Morant marketplace is interesting just

34
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 2: for the all right, how low will that offer finally

35
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 2: be that gets him out of Memphis? And then Carra,

36
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 2: when you look at what Charlotte was was a to

37
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 2: do you know. Kobe White's long a guy. We've joked

38
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 2: and you and I have watched a lot of Bulls

39
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 2: games in these seats, and there are nights where he plays.

40
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:14,639
Speaker 2: Forgive it, because the guy's got the the hairde of

41
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 2: a dude who stuck his finger into the electric socket.

42
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,799
Speaker 2: That he plays like that right where he has big

43
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,079
Speaker 2: games and then he's got very quiet games. And now

44
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 2: he goes to Charlotte, he in Kinnipple. I mean that

45
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,640
Speaker 2: could be interesting, right, But for the Bulls, it's another

46
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,359
Speaker 2: year of Yeah, and and all those moves took them

47
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 2: out of Giannis territory when after he and his family

48
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 2: bought that twenty one million dollar building, suddenly they were

49
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,679
Speaker 2: the second or third favorites in the betting markets to

50
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,519
Speaker 2: suddenly become a bull. Yeah, the Bucks are gonna trade

51
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 2: him to the Bulls for a bunch of ancillary parts.

52
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 2: But it'll be fun. We've seen a lot of activity,

53
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 2: a lot of big names, some guys exiled the basketball Siberia.

54
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 2: It's been great.

55
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: Now. The thing about Yannis this okay to think about this,

56
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 1: and we said this a while and now you really

57
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 1: start to see the point we made that don't underestimate him.

58
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: We always say the same thing about Lebron. Anything Lebron

59
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 1: says social media wise, when he clicks on something, when

60
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: he hits the like button, what he says after a game,

61
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,800
Speaker 1: he is extremely calculated, right, we know this. He always

62
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: has been. That's that's Lebron James. Whatever he says, he

63
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 1: knows what he's saying, there's a reason behind what he's saying.

64
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 1: The same thing for Yannis. Yannis just comes at it

65
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 1: from a different perspective. He's he's more of an awe

66
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 1: shock say, popular guy. Everybody loves me. But you are seeing,

67
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 1: especially in the last day and a half, about how

68
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: calculated Yannis can be. All right, because just think about

69
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 1: the last twenty four hours. Now, forget about the last year,

70
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: where Yannis has been slowly slow playing like Ocean's eleven,

71
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 1: setting up the Big Heights to be a slow playing

72
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: from the end to last year where hey, I talked

73
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: to the Nicks, I might want to go there, to hey,

74
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: I'm talking to the Bucks about maybe my future isn't here,

75
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: it could be someplace else. I'm gonna boo the fans.

76
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 1: I'm going to rip my teammates and say they're not

77
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: hustling and not giving the effort. All of these things

78
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: Jannis is doing.

79
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 2: He knows what he's doing.

80
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: When he does all these things, he is crafting his

81
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 1: exit from Milwaukee. Now, what do we see the beginning

82
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 1: of this week, the heat put out an offer and Joannis.

83
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 1: According to reports, the four teams that were out there,

84
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 1: the Heat were one of them. Right, His mom puts

85
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: out a picture on social media that's suddenly, oh look, hey, y'ah,

86
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 1: here's a picture of my son on the court in Miami.

87
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 1: Why no reason, no, right, just putting it out there

88
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 1: for no real Oh okay, so then what did we

89
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: find out? The next day? Here's Miami's offer for Yannis,

90
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 1: and it's centered around Tyler Hero, Haimi Hawkez, a couple

91
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:47,360
Speaker 1: other guys, some first round picks. Probably the best offer

92
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 1: you're gonna get. But is that something that wows and

93
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:50,679
Speaker 1: knocks the socks off the Bucks?

94
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:50,840
Speaker 2: Know?

95
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 1: Because what did we hear after that? The Bucks are

96
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: going back to other teams that have made offers with counteroffers,

97
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,839
Speaker 1: so likely they want more. The Miami Heater are going

98
00:04:59,920 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 1: to and say, yeah, no, that's our top offer. That's

99
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,919
Speaker 1: just about everything week we can afford to give. After

100
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 1: that gets out, we start hearing about other teams, right, okay,

101
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 1: so is it the next well maybe not the next Okay,

102
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 1: they don't seem to be in it all right, great,

103
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:15,559
Speaker 1: so maybe the Warriors, the Tea Wolves and Yannis doesn't

104
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: interview with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel a day ago, and

105
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 1: he goes overboard with how much he loves Milwaukee, how

106
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,119
Speaker 1: much he wants to stay, how much in a perfect world,

107
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 1: he would be here the rest of his life. My

108
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: kids were born here, everything that you know. They have

109
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: Milwaukee and Wisconsin on their ID. I have Milwaukee and

110
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 1: Wisconsin on my driver's license. This would be where I

111
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 1: would want to spend the rest of my life. And

112
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,039
Speaker 1: then very quickly says, you know, but if we can't

113
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: figure this out, yeah, I gotta go, I'll go someplace else.

114
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 1: So now suddenly, with Yanni's doing all he can to

115
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 1: seemingly get traded, yesterday he comes out at us with

116
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: a big newspaper article that says, hey, of course, this

117
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 1: is where I would love to be, right, Why is

118
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,160
Speaker 1: he doing that? Because the offers haven't come in. It

119
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,600
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like he's close to getting traded. So now

120
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: I may have to be here for a while, at

121
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 1: least through the end of this year. So I'm gonna

122
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: make my life a whole hell of a lot easier,

123
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 1: and it's gonna help grease the schedule when I do

124
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: get traded by going overboard by telling you how much

125
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 1: I want to stay here. Here's the thing, dude, you

126
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 1: could stay if you want to, if it means that

127
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 1: much to you that everything is here, everything is so

128
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 1: important to you, But a championship is more important. Wait

129
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:29,840
Speaker 1: a minute, I don't understand you, honest, I don't understand

130
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: if you're going so far to tell me that your life,

131
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: your family's life, your kids, everything else. It's all mill.

132
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: What's everything Wisconsin? You love everything, love the state, But

133
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 1: championships more important. I mean, you could stay here, you

134
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 1: can stay. I mean, the Bucks don't want to trade you,

135
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 1: the fans love you. You can stay if you want to.

136
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: But now I'm giving you this. Oh man, I want,

137
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 1: I want to say, but if I can't, I have

138
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,480
Speaker 1: to go someplace else to win a championship. Oh okay,

139
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: So now winning a championship is most important. When you've

140
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,279
Speaker 1: gone out of your way to convince me how much

141
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,360
Speaker 1: you want to stay, all this is done. And his

142
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 1: strategy by doing that a day ago was to let

143
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 1: everybody know, Okay, the next few months, I still don't

144
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 1: want to be the bad guy when I leave, I'm

145
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 1: gonna be the good guy. It's still my calculated. Yannis

146
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 1: plan is going forward. It's going great. Everybody's still gonna

147
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: love me. The next few months are gonna be okay.

148
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 1: I'll find my way out in the off season, and

149
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 1: I'm still gonna be loved because I want to be

150
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 1: loved by everybody, right, I don't want to be the

151
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: bad guy. And then what happens tonight? One team that

152
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: would think would be in the finals to go get Yannis? Right,

153
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 1: what did Brian Windhorse say two days ago? The Warriors

154
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: are gonna be in it all the way to the end,

155
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: all the way to the end. The Warrior is gonna

156
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: be in on it with Giannis all the way it

157
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: all the way, all the way. Maybe they don't have

158
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 1: the best dog, but they're gonna be out all the way.

159
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 1: The Warriors trade the guy tonight that would be the

160
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 1: centerpiece of any trade with Yannis. So I don't think

161
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 1: there's any coincidence to how Yannis has been playing it,

162
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 1: moving the timeline and moving the pieces across the chessboard

163
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 1: as he wanted to. Yes, I want to find my

164
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 1: way out, so I do everything I can to make

165
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 1: it seem like it's untenable. Okay, now it's out there

166
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 1: in the universe. Now we're getting trade off coming in. Now,

167
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna see where I go. I get my teams

168
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: out there that I want to go to, the four teams,

169
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 1: the Knicks, the Warriors, the Tea Wolves, maybe the Bulls,

170
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 1: and the Heat. Right, I get my mom to put

171
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 1: out a big picture on social media to meet with

172
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 1: the Heat. Let's go Heat, Heat, Heat. Then it's not

173
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: working out the way he wants. He knows how it's going,

174
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 1: he knows the likelihood of him being traded with teams

175
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: seemingly not as interested right now, so I'm pulling back.

176
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 1: I do an interview the Warriors trade Jonathan Kaminga. He's

177
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 1: gonna wind up staying in Milwaukee, Buck. But don't underestimate

178
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 1: how calculated he has been throughout this entire time, because

179
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 1: when you follow it by that, you understand exactly what

180
00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 1: he's been doing. And he's been pulling the strings all along.

181
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, a couple of things. I mean pulling the strings

182
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 2: also in terms of roster building and coaching. Right, we've

183
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 2: watched that to where they've made some moves to seemingly

184
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 2: satisfy him and give him his best opportunity to go

185
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 2: win again. He should learn a little lesson from what

186
00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:01,959
Speaker 2: Damian Lillard, you know, a very short term teammate. The

187
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 2: lesson he learned right he was in Portland all the

188
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,079
Speaker 2: he said all those same things. I love Portland. I'm

189
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 2: not leaving Portland. And then he goes to Milwaukee, very

190
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 2: short lived experience, and then back to Portland as he

191
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 2: rehabs from injury and tries to finish off his career.

192
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 2: But for you, honest, he won the title, and clearly

193
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:23,319
Speaker 2: he wants to set up you know, I'm the hero.

194
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 2: Look how much I want to win. Look at this

195
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,199
Speaker 2: team that just got to give better effort, and it's

196
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 2: all the things you'd want your leader to say, right,

197
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 2: so it can't be his fault. Meanwhile, on the Milwaukee side,

198
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,959
Speaker 2: they're not gonna settle for anything that really doesn't move

199
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,200
Speaker 2: the needle, either to put them right back into contention

200
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 2: or at least give them that star power of look

201
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,679
Speaker 2: what we got. Maybe it's the next great thing, or

202
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,840
Speaker 2: maybe it's a guy who's maybe slightly on the decline

203
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 2: but still a big deal. And again going back to

204
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 2: that Miami Heat deal, it might might be a good

205
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 2: deal overall when you add picks and whatever else talking

206
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 2: about this year's draft. Next year's draft might be some

207
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 2: exciting stuff, but nobody's moving the needle. And they just

208
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,319
Speaker 2: watched what Nico Harrison had to deal with and in

209
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,559
Speaker 2: Dallas before he was deposed, and now that's just been

210
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 2: blown apart. The number of bodies that have been moved

211
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 2: back and forth emanating out of that Luca deal is

212
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 2: immeaserable at this point. I think it's on like three

213
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,959
Speaker 2: sheets of paper and there's still a couple of dots

214
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 2: there because of waiting for the next shoe to drop.

215
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 2: But for both sides, it's the how do we keep

216
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 2: ourselves from becoming the bad guy? For the bucks? They

217
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 2: fear the tickets sale loss and the reaction as to

218
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,199
Speaker 2: when Luca got traded. Even if you can see the

219
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 2: writing on the wall and it's spelled out, I mean

220
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:49,720
Speaker 2: he's written it out in praying for a year?

221
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:52,079
Speaker 1: Did you know?

222
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 2: The old explained it to me like I'm five, that's

223
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:55,559
Speaker 2: what he's doing. And it's funny.

224
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 1: You meant, wait, wait, wait, what movie was it? Where

225
00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: like the Serial Killer? But was writing all the messages

226
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 1: and crayon on the walls at all? This card? Was it? Seven?

227
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 1: Was he writing all the stuff in crayons on the wall.

228
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 1: I think that might have been, but now I'm I've

229
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 1: seen so many of those movies.

230
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's just thing. I mean, certainly there was the

231
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 2: one of the Treehouse of Terrors of the Simpsons had

232
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 2: that on the walls with all of the uh the

233
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 2: messaging as the lightning and thunder were rolling. But you know,

234
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 2: I was thinking about the you mentioned notions eleven and

235
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,959
Speaker 2: planning the Great Heist. I was also thinking about it

236
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 2: when we were talking with Rick Buker about the James

237
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 2: Harden and Darius Garland and he said, you know, the

238
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 2: medical technology and what they're doing, and he'll be back

239
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 2: on the court. Maybe he wears the Chuck Taylors or whatever.

240
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 2: For Garland, I was thinking getting out of Cleveland, he

241
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 2: was like Bernie Mack getting reassigned to go work at

242
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:54,080
Speaker 2: the casino with that smile on his face and hand

243
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 2: out the window kind of thing. But same thing for Jannis.

244
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 2: I mean, he wants to go, but he wants to

245
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 2: you know, give it the old Hey, it can't possibly

246
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,439
Speaker 2: might be my fault as far as he needs to

247
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 2: ride this out.

248
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 1: Well, and part of it is he wants everyone to win. Now,

249
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,319
Speaker 1: it's not like it's completely he's calculating and all of

250
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 1: a sudden he's the villain. He's calculated about his career,

251
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,560
Speaker 1: but he also wants to be able to say, at

252
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 1: the end, it happened, and nobody should be the bad guy, right.

253
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 1: He doesn't want to come out as a bad guy. Clearly,

254
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,559
Speaker 1: I don't think he wants to paint the Bucks is

255
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,719
Speaker 1: the bad guys, because if he did, he would have

256
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,680
Speaker 1: come out much more strongly against the organization. He would

257
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 1: have said this stinks. Doc Rivers is awful. You can't

258
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 1: build anything around me. Eye went out. He'd have gone

259
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 1: full James Harden.

260
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 2: Well you said that last week.

261
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 1: He'd have done that.

262
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:45,839
Speaker 2: Doc Rivers. Hey, wait a minute, why are you blaming Wait,

263
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:46,680
Speaker 2: and it's not my fault.

264
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,319
Speaker 1: I haven't played a minute. Maybe I'll activate myself and

265
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 1: play point guard. But I mean I haven't played a

266
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 1: minute yet.

267
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:53,319
Speaker 2: I don't know what you want me to do.

268
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 1: So if that was the case, like you, you would

269
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,439
Speaker 1: get that he would say, Okay, I'm doing this. But

270
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:03,319
Speaker 1: he does hold Milwaukee and this is his home, and

271
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 1: he definitely feels a sense of responsibility towards them. He

272
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: doesn't want them to look like the bad guys he did,

273
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 1: because he knows if they look like the bad guys

274
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 1: then it's going to be awkward for him throughout his career.

275
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 1: He doesn't want to keep getting questions like Luca keeps

276
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: getting questions about the Mavericks, even though Luca just got

277
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,679
Speaker 1: Dealton had no idea was happening. So you know, he does.

278
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 1: He does have a lot of conscientiousness about it, but

279
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:28,839
Speaker 1: you know he's still going around to saying this is

280
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 1: what I want, and he's the puppet master on all

281
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 1: of it. Right, Yeah, Like I wouldn't be surprised if

282
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 1: the buck'st the end of the deadline. Privately, they go, man,

283
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: I don't know what this guy wants. Man, you know,

284
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 1: we didn't know if we were going to trade him.

285
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 1: We looked into it, we thought we'd look into it again.

286
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 1: Then all of a sudden, he plops in our lap.

287
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 1: So now we're taking offers. Now we're going back finding

288
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,559
Speaker 1: out teams. Teams are coming back saying maybe they're not

289
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 1: going to trade for us. Now he wants to stay, Like,

290
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 1: what the hell, man, I need a breath. And that's

291
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 1: part of it too, is that I think both sides

292
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 1: before you rush into something you can't rush out of,

293
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:00,960
Speaker 1: because I think any on his trade would be something

294
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 1: you're rushing into it or you're just you're getting frustrated.

295
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 1: You're saying, all right, fine, we'll take the best offer

296
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 1: out there, even if it's not the best offer you're

297
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,679
Speaker 1: gonna get if you wait till the offseason. But you know,

298
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 1: to avoid that happening, sit back, take a breath, and go, Okay,

299
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,520
Speaker 1: there's no reason to do this now. There were not

300
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:18,960
Speaker 1: going to affect our future in any way if we then,

301
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 1: if we wait until the end of this year, we're

302
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 1: still gonna get Joannis is still gonna be a guy

303
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 1: to go out. He'll be fully healthy, which will be

304
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 1: easier to trade. We'll get a bigger package. Teams will

305
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 1: have a better idea of what they want to give

306
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 1: up because in the off season they'll have a better

307
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 1: chance to sit back and say, this is what worked,

308
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 1: this is what didn't. Now we're gonna go in and

309
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: make a move, and this is what we can afford

310
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:39,400
Speaker 1: to give up. These are all the assets we have.

311
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: More teams get involved because when you get to a

312
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 1: deadline like this, there's only a couple of teams that

313
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 1: are gonna do it. So I think in the end,

314
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 1: like I said, both team, they'll both sides will take

315
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 1: a breath and say, can we table this till the

316
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 1: end of the year. Okay? And Jannis gets a mini

317
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 1: farewell tour right every time he takes the floor, and

318
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 1: Milwaukee's gonna wait to the fans and boo them and

319
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 1: say yeah, boom, I'm leaving Boom. He gets his own,

320
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 1: you know, little mini farewell to Lebron's gonna say I

321
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: want something like that bigger next year. And everybody kind

322
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 1: of wins if Yanna stays a bucket this.

323
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 2: But you go back to the old draft lottery question

324
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 2: of whether you get a win there. You don't want

325
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 2: to make it a permanent solution that goes to relationship,

326
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 2: work situations, whatever, right, the permanent solution for a tent

327
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 2: what could be a temporary problem. Make sure you've really

328
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 2: thought about all angles and the ramifications thereof. Otherwise you

329
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 2: end up doing a special like Lebron talking himself up

330
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 2: with his revisionist history of you know, I was always

331
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 2: a fan of the nWo and how they you know,

332
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,880
Speaker 2: embrace b and heels what am I? That was my

333
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 2: biggest problem with that team in Miami because you didn't.

334
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 2: So Yannis doesn't want to do the same thing. I

335
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 2: don't think showing up and doing interviews in making up

336
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:50,239
Speaker 2: a false history.

337
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 1: Exit out about a Fresca exit swallowed home calling. Now

338
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 1: by this time tomorrow, Yannis is still a buck. With

Speaker 2: Just an absolute blowout the thirteen and eleven and at

409
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,880

Speaker 2: a big sage brush in or does all the All

411
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,720

00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 2: come play in that place.

413
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 1: Dude, you're smarter than that. Come on, dude. They lost

414
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 1: sixteen out of nineteen. They won sixteen out of nineteen.

415
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 1: Now they're gonna lose sixteen out of nineteen. That's how

416
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:51,879
Speaker 1: it goes for them. Now that's what's next. Let you

417
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:52,159
Speaker 1: know this.

418
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 2: Now we're riding a seesaw. Yeah, and this is where

419
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:56,919
Speaker 2: you start singing.

420
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 1: Right.

421
00:19:58,600 --> 00:19:59,440
Speaker 2: God messy saw.

422
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,199
Speaker 1: So as we are just a few hours away from

423
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,280
Speaker 1: the NBA trade deadline tomorrow. Thanks to Rick Buker, who

424
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 1: stopped by with us earlier. What we saw, what we

425
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,639
Speaker 1: could see. The big story of the day the Mavericks

426
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 1: trading Anthony Davis to the Wizards eight player blockbuster, which

427
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,680
Speaker 1: helps Dallas be able to build around Cooper Flagg. You know,

428
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:24,199
Speaker 1: they get back James Middleton, Chris Middleton and Marvin Bagley

429
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:28,360
Speaker 1: and a couple other guys. D'Angelo Russell heads over to Washington.

430
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,119
Speaker 1: So it's a big eight player trade. But this marks

431
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,880
Speaker 1: the end of the Anthony Davis era in Dallas. Now,

432
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,240
Speaker 1: when we talked to Rick Buker, he gave us the

433
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 1: great liner. He said, when a team trades for you,

434
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 1: they believe you're the missing piece. They think you're taking

435
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 1: them to the finals and not only getting there, but winning.

436
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 1: They believe in you. They tell you you're you're there guy,

437
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 1: and then you show up to camp overweight, you get

438
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 1: traded to the Washington Wizards.

439
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:59,360
Speaker 2: Right, we got a weekend that you know Clutch Sports

440
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 2: wanted out of Dallas. Well, yeah, careful what you wish for?

441
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 1: Well, no, I get, I get, and I get that

442
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 1: part of it. And that's that's a little bit separate

443
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 1: conversation because for a very different and a more human

444
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 1: coming to work every day kind of situation. At this point,

445
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 1: the Mavericks had no choice but to trade Anthony Davis,

446
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 1: and it doesn't And we're not talking about his fit

447
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 1: alongside Cooper Flag if he ever plays more than five

448
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,560
Speaker 1: games in a row. We're not talking about, Hey, can

449
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 1: he rediscover the player he was with with the with

450
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:34,920
Speaker 1: the Lakers? Can he finally dedicate himself? Now, sometimes you

451
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 1: just need to move on from something that's so incredibly

452
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:41,119
Speaker 1: painful you can't have reminders of it right now, not

453
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:42,920
Speaker 1: to you know, but just to give you a recent

454
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,840
Speaker 1: example here, Look, in the beginning of the off season,

455
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,119
Speaker 1: the you know, everybody was saying, oh my goodness. All

456
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: my friends were telling me, what are the Mets doing?

457
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:52,720
Speaker 1: What are the Mets doing? Right? They said goodbye to

458
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:55,160
Speaker 1: Pete Alonso, They let him go, didn't give him an offer,

459
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:59,239
Speaker 1: They let Edwin Diaz go, Brandon Nimo went, Jeff McNeil went,

460
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 1: all these long tenured Mets and so many, so many

461
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,040
Speaker 1: Mets fans were so upset about this, And I said,

462
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 1: I think it's okay. I don't think I missed any

463
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 1: parades in Manhattan. I don't think I missed more than

464
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 1: one ninety win season. With this group. I think it's okay,

465
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,159
Speaker 1: but mainly the Mets collapse was so bad at the

466
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 1: end of the year, you can't bring the guys back

467
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:22,679
Speaker 1: and say, hey, let's go do it again. I mean,

468
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 1: in any sport, sometimes things happen that are so bad

469
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,840
Speaker 1: that when you have a walking reminder of it, you

470
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 1: can't move on from it. Right. It's it's you know,

471
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 1: it's like it's if two people were dating because and

472
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 1: they were roommates, right, and they and they started dating.

473
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 1: Everything is great, but then they break up. Well, the

474
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 1: other one of the roommates has to move out, right,

475
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 1: because if the roommate doesn't move out when you're you're

476
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 1: still reminded this breakup every single time you come home,

477
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:48,440
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Doesn't matter if you you come home with

478
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 1: your new girlfriend, your ex girlfriend living in the other room,

479
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 1: or you come home and she brings a guy home. Yeah,

480
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,680
Speaker 1: you're reminded of that breakup. You can't do it. And

481
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 1: the Luke of Trade when it was made was so unpopular,

482
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 1: got more unpopular as time went on because Lucas started

483
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 1: thriving and loving life with Los Angeles. Mavericks fans couldn't

484
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 1: stand Nico Harrison. They boot him at every game. I

485
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:14,440
Speaker 1: don't think the Mavericks understood what the exact impact was

486
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,399
Speaker 1: going to be from the fans, that what the trading

487
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,160
Speaker 1: of Luka Doncic, what that was going to mean, because

488
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 1: they were going to be really upset about it. I

489
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,200
Speaker 1: don't think they they thought that, oh, okay, yeah, we're

490
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 1: trading Luca. That's going to be tough, but we don't

491
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:27,879
Speaker 1: want to pay him. He's not going to stay in

492
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 1: shape for us. We got to give him three hundred

493
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 1: million dollars. We're not going to do that. Fans didn't

494
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 1: care about that, and it became something that weighed on

495
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:38,240
Speaker 1: the organization to hear fire Nico at every single game,

496
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: even on the road. Fans would travel on the road

497
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:43,479
Speaker 1: just to chant fire Nico at the games. They were

498
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,800
Speaker 1: never able to move past this deal. So what happened, Hey,

499
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:48,720
Speaker 1: we figure we get away from it in the offseason,

500
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 1: we come back at it, you know, maybe Kyrie gets healthy,

501
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 1: Cooper flag Ad, Hey, we start winning games, people are

502
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: going to forget about it. Well, what happened. The Mavericks

503
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 1: didn't start winning games. Ad couldn't stay on the floor,

504
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 1: and the Mavericks said Okay, we can't keep having Nico

505
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 1: Harrison come to work because fans still aren't past it.

506
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 1: So they fire Nico Harrison. Who's the last guy left

507
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 1: from this trade, and that's Anthony Davis, right, I mean

508
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,280
Speaker 1: the still you have antillary pieces and then the trade

509
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 1: in the end what it was going to be. I mean,

510
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:19,679
Speaker 1: I love seeing the people saying so in the end,

511
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 1: the Mavericks traded away. Luka Dauntonson got back this. He

512
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 1: was the last part. And it doesn't matter if he's

513
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 1: on the floor, it doesn't matter if he's off the floor.

514
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 1: His continued presence keeps the Mavericks from moving forward, keeps

515
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,840
Speaker 1: the fan base from moving forward, keeps the team from

516
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 1: moving forward. Beause he's a big enough player that you

517
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,920
Speaker 1: want to try to build around him. You couldn't do it.

518
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 1: He had to go. There was no way they could

519
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,359
Speaker 1: get past the deadline and still have Anthony Davis on

520
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 1: this team. And was the trade great for them? No,

521
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:52,639
Speaker 1: they got a couple of nice players, but boy, a

522
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 1: guy who was the focal point of trading away Luka Doncic, Like, wow, man,

523
00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 1: that's you settled for. But I understand that part of

524
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:00,680
Speaker 1: it because he had to go what they had to

525
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:04,560
Speaker 1: move on. Now Dallas can really mark the calendar and

526
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 1: say day one after Luca, right, because it wasn't until

527
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 1: even drafting Cooper Flag. Naha, how good would it be

528
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,040
Speaker 1: if we had Cooper Flag and if we had Luca,

529
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:14,639
Speaker 1: if we had well, if you had Luca, you wouldn't

530
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,720
Speaker 1: have Cooper Flag. But whatever, let's not facts getting away

531
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 1: of a good story. Hey, we can't really move on

532
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,360
Speaker 1: until we are past this trade. So now everybody's gone.

533
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 1: Nico's gone, and Ad is gone, the two guys that

534
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 1: were the reminders of it. So now this is really

535
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,920
Speaker 1: day one after Luca for the Mavericks. You want to heal,

536
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 1: you want to get past it. Sure, Cooper Flag helped,

537
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,200
Speaker 1: and everybody was all in on Flag and the game

538
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 1: he had the other night with forty nine points, most

539
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,159
Speaker 1: points by a teenager or an NBA game. It's outstanding. Right,

540
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 1: the team is in good hands. He's the guy whose

541
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 1: jersey everybody's gonna buy. It's awesome. But now mentally they

542
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 1: can move on. At the end, the Mavericks had no

543
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 1: choice but to move on from it from Ad, and

544
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,200
Speaker 1: I think looking what they did, they're lucky. They got

545
00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:59,239
Speaker 1: what they got because everybody knew how desperate they were

546
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 1: to trade eight away ad. Nobody was gonna pony up

547
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 1: for him because obviously he's not a guy that can

548
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 1: stay on the floor. He showed it over the courser

549
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:08,959
Speaker 1: his entire career. Yeah, we're not going to go all

550
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 1: in on him like you did stupid, So yeah, we'll

551
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:13,960
Speaker 1: give you this kind of move for him. Okay, great,

552
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:15,680
Speaker 1: and they found a trading partner in the Wizards. But

553
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 1: it had to happen.

554
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 2: They've managed him to the Wizards. I do like your

555
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,720
Speaker 2: moment of zen or an explanation here. It's kind of

556
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 2: like Tysher talks about, if you're gonna go in for

557
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 2: one of these three seven forty two day cleanses, really

558
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 2: reset your system in a whole other stratosphere. This room

559
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 2: bleacher Abort. A little earlier, the MAVs turned Luca into

560
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 2: Max Christy Middleton, Johnson Branham, John Bagley, I mean, Marvin

561
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 2: Bagley the third. I wanted to get John Bagley into

562
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 2: the show. Go look him up, folks. Old Celtics camp,

563
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 2: Lakers twenty nine first round pick, Thunder twenty six first

564
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 2: round pick, Warriors twenty thirty protected first round pick, Sun's

565
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:04,400
Speaker 2: twenty six second round pick, Bulls twenty seven second round pick,

566
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 2: and Rockets twenty nine second round pick two, four, six, eight, eleven.

567
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:15,760
Speaker 2: Things there you go. No, but it's all it's all

568
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:19,160
Speaker 2: the cleansing and you get a hard reset, and sometimes

569
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:21,239
Speaker 2: in your life that's what you need.

570
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 1: Right. And look, four years ago, if I got Chris Middleton,

571
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,879
Speaker 1: I'd be happy. Hey hey Chris, but this is now

572
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 1: four years now.

573
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,640
Speaker 2: You played with Giannis. I mean yeah, it was great

574
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,760
Speaker 2: and he is little today? Was he thirty seven?

575
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 1: Now too? We'll get Yondis to come to Dallas next year.

576
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:39,720
Speaker 1: That's what we're gonna do. That's what we do. No,

577
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 1: I mean, look, it's just it's one of those things

578
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 1: where it go. This goes beyond the box score and

579
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 1: beyond what a team can do fitting in. Sometimes mistakes

580
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:49,879
Speaker 1: happen and and things happen so bad you have no

581
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:51,920
Speaker 1: choice but to move on. Right. Oh, you know who

582
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 1: I remember telling me about that is John Clayton, right

583
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:56,840
Speaker 1: late John Clayton. Also so many things the last few years.

584
00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:58,920
Speaker 1: I remember stuff him telling me. And you know, I

585
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,200
Speaker 1: don't remember the Jets. He had a horrible playoff game

586
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 1: like fifteen more than that now. Twenty years ago where

587
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 1: they missed two field goals, Doug Brian missed two field

588
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 1: goals in the final two minutes against the Steelers. We

589
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 1: lost that game, and I was inconsolable. I couldn't believe it.

590
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,119
Speaker 1: I'm like, how do you miss two field goals in

591
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 1: the final two minutes that would have won the game?

592
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 1: And he said to me, Jason, that's the last time

593
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to worry about Doug Brian. I said,

594
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,640
Speaker 1: he goes, he goes, There's no way he can come back.

595
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 1: I saw Curtis Martin in the locker room. I've never

596
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 1: seen him so upset after a football game. Sometimes there's

597
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 1: mistakes that happened that are just so bad that a

598
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:35,959
Speaker 1: guy can't come back from it. You'll never You'll never

599
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:37,880
Speaker 1: have to worry about Doug Brian again. And of course

600
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 1: the Jets got rid of Doug Brian and moved on. Okay,

601
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 1: that's great, But I remember saying that you get in

602
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 1: the locker room and you see how people are reacting

603
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 1: and what it's like, and what it's like surrounding the team.

604
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 1: You can't have that black cloud surrounding you everywhere you

605
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 1: go and after Nico Harrison got fired, Ad became that

606
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: black cloud, and that's what it was, and not his fault.

607
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:58,760
Speaker 1: Obviously staying on the court, that's a different story. Not

608
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 1: his fault, that's what it was. But he was just

609
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 1: walking around. He was that reminder of this was the

610
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 1: worst trait that I can't believe it now. I'm just depressed.

611
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 1: So you had to move on from it.

612
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:12,320

649
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 6: is probably the press release that announced the trade from

650
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 6: the NBA.

651
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 2: Uh, Jason Smith, do you have a quick reaction?

652
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 6: This a thumbs up?

653
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 1: Yes? No, No, I like about it. They needed somebody

654
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 1: else who can come off the bench with energy and

655
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 1: be someone that could that can push the offense a

656
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 1: little bit, and that's the guy they wanted, and they

657
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:27,880
Speaker 1: had to get rid of Abaseeli, right, I mean, he

658
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 1: obviously didn't work out. He was the guy that had

659
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:31,959
Speaker 1: to move on from. So yeah, the two things they

660
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,200
Speaker 1: needed was a guy to come in that can that

661
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,360
Speaker 1: can kind of be that instant guy off the bench

662
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 1: energy offensively, and maybe a big that could come in

663
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:43,320
Speaker 1: and play a few minutes here and there, depending on

664
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 1: how things go with with Mitchell Robinsonema. But I like

665
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 1: what they did so far. I think this is a

666
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:48,720
Speaker 1: pretty good deal.

667
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 2: There you go, not for me.

668
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:57,640

Speaker 1: be two very minor moves, Mike Carbon, very very You.

682
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 2: Hated that guy, You've been talking about getting rid of

683
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 2: him for months.

684
00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:47,600
Speaker 1: Well they've had I mean, look, oh the one guy said, Okay,

685
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:49,520
Speaker 1: who are the Knicks gonna trad Yabazelle? I'd be really

686
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 1: just didn't work out. It didn't work out right, I mean,

687
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 1: but listen, but seriously, I like Dale and Terry. He's

688
00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,160
Speaker 1: good defender and he's gonna give him what they need

689
00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 1: off the bench and and and you know what, Look,

690
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,080
Speaker 1: it's gonna be the smaller moves and they have to

691
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:05,120
Speaker 1: make that rotation a little bit deeper the rest of

692
00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 1: the year. No, I like what they's not gonna come

693
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 1: out and like the scoreboard up. But he's gonna help

694
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 1: run the offense. I think he's gonna be fine.

695
00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 2: Give you some defensive minutes when you know Kat doesn't

696
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:15,640

Speaker 7: The Jason Smith Show with my by best friend Mike Harmon.

708
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 1: So here we are getting ready for the NBA trade

709
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:12,600
Speaker 1: deadline tomorrow, and we spend a lot of time talking

710
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 1: about players who could get dealt and teams are gonna

711
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,759
Speaker 1: make trades. But I got three teams tomorrow. I'll tell you,

712
00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,760
Speaker 1: Mike Carmon, you're gonna see them do next to nothing,

713
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 1: three teams, and people are gonna be hop and mad

714
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:28,000
Speaker 1: that these three teams aren't gonna make any moves.

715
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,359
Speaker 2: But they because they're gonna start thinking about the super Bowl.

716
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 1: Well for one city, yes, for one city, Yes, we

717
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 1: told you a few minutes ago. You heard the news

718
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,279
Speaker 1: from Martin Weiss. The Knicks make a move for Dale

719
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 1: and Terry, who's gonna be a good spark plug off

720
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:46,480
Speaker 1: the bench for them, a point guard who's a good defender.

721
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,560
Speaker 1: It's a move they absolutely need. But the Knicks are

722
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 1: not gonna make a big move tomorrow. They're not gonna

723
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 1: get somebody big to come off the bench. The Knicks

724
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 1: are gonna sit back and not do anything. Also not

725
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 1: doing anything, it's gonna be the Celtics. Celtic's gonna sit back.

726
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,239
Speaker 1: I cannot do anything because as good a season as

727
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:07,040
Speaker 1: they're having, they're sort of stuck right now because Jason

728
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:10,480
Speaker 1: Tatum is weighing whether or not he's gonna come back

729
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:13,279
Speaker 1: and play this year. So really what are you gonna

730
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 1: do with your boss? I mean you look ahead to

731
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:16,239
Speaker 1: the super Bowl, obviously, but what are you gonna do

732
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:18,439
Speaker 1: with your boss? And do you say, Okay, hey, let's

733
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:19,920
Speaker 1: go make a move and get what we need here?

734
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,920
Speaker 1: Because surprisingly we are now Jalen Brown driven right and

735
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:26,239
Speaker 1: the Jason Tatum thinks something we got to solve. But

736
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:29,120
Speaker 1: do we go and do X, Y and Z and

737
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:31,879
Speaker 1: then Tatum comes back and maybe the pieces don't fit.

738
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,640
Speaker 1: I know, we're thirty three and eighteen, we're feeling really

739
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 1: good about what we're doing right now. Yeah, maybe we

740
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 1: do something, but if Tatum comes back, is that gonna

741
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,880
Speaker 1: be counter to what we do with the deadline? So

742
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,280
Speaker 1: the Celtics are kind of in a in a state

743
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 1: of just inertia right now where their big addition is

744
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,400
Speaker 1: going to be if Tatum comes back, and if not,

745
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 1: they'll figure that out in the off season. The Celtics

746
00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:59,640
Speaker 1: are no strangers to big deals. But you know that's

747
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 1: gonna be the big awkward part because here's Tatum already saying, Hey, yeah,

748
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:05,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna wait and see a fight and come back. Dude,

749
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:06,759
Speaker 1: what do you mean to gonna wait and see him

750
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,000
Speaker 1: come back? Team is having a really good year. Man,

751
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,200
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, you're not the guy anymore that they're all

752
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:13,279
Speaker 1: you know, it's around Jalen Brown, and maybe in the

753
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 1: future that that means you're gonna get traded someplace else.

754
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,200
Speaker 1: But hey, you're not gonna come back. So clearly you

755
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,400
Speaker 1: can see that he might might see the writing on

756
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 1: the wall that his future in Boston might not be

757
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,719
Speaker 1: what he thinks it is. He could be out after

758
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:27,799
Speaker 1: this year. So I'm not gonna come back and kill

759
00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 1: myself to get back to play here and maybe get

760
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:32,399
Speaker 1: hurt or get injured again. And if they're just gonna

761
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:34,120
Speaker 1: trade me in the offseason, also don't want to come

762
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:35,840
Speaker 1: back and be the number three guy in the offense.

763
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,279
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be Lebron on the Lakers. You know,

764
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:40,839
Speaker 1: this was my team until I got hurt. Now it's

765
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:44,200
Speaker 1: not my team anymore. So both those teams for different reasons.

766
00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:46,880
Speaker 1: The Knicks feel like they've solved their issues. The Celtics

767
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 1: one hundred percent. If they weren't dealing with inertia, they

768
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:51,680
Speaker 1: would make a deal. But those are two of the

769
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 1: three teams that aren't gonna make a move.

770
00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I always wondered whose team. It really was, because

771
00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:58,799
Speaker 2: depending on which way the wind blew, sometimes it was. Hey,

772
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:02,040
Speaker 2: Jalen Brown, is that tuck knows guy that you need?

773
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 2: The other ones? Well, Jason Tatum's better at, you know,

774
00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 2: smiling and doing the stuff in front of the media.

775
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 2: All right, So which way does it go? Big win tonight?

776
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:17,040
Speaker 2: With Luca Garza scoring nineteen points? How about that your god?

777
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:17,640
Speaker 3: Yeah?

778
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, college again for Luca Garza.

779
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,840
Speaker 2: Well over a pretty good Houston Rocket squad and Jalen

780
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:28,960
Speaker 2: Brown didn't play. Peyton Pritchard also known as Caitlin Clark

781
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:32,360
Speaker 2: of the NBA went for twenty seven, including five of

782
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,600
Speaker 2: ten from three point range. How about that coming off

783
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:39,200
Speaker 2: of his game winner the other night? But all of

784
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:42,680
Speaker 2: it in Boston is why would you potentially give away

785
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:46,040
Speaker 2: multiple pieces to make a move to someone who becomes

786
00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:49,640
Speaker 2: an ancillary piece. If Tatum is back, they can looking

787
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 2: at the Eastern Conference and saying there's no team that

788
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:57,120
Speaker 2: we can't run through. Right, Cleveland playing better basketball. The

789
00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:00,880
Speaker 2: Knicks are at least for the moment solved. But are

790
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 2: you afraid of them?

791
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:02,160
Speaker 7: No?

792
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 2: Uh? Playhoff Nicks? Sorry, buddy, I mean we've.

793
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:07,400
Speaker 1: Watched Shithugh Harmon.

794
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:09,600
Speaker 2: How about that I I mean, I know, you just

795
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 2: got a big chip from the yeah, and you're defending

796
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 2: champions in all, but if you're the Celtics, Hea, you

797
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:19,399
Speaker 2: match up pretty well and you're feeling pretty good about

798
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:23,880
Speaker 2: where you sit there. So I wouldn't anticipate much of

799
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:24,920
Speaker 2: a move from them at all.

800
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:28,239
Speaker 1: Now, the other team that's not gonna do anything that

801
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:32,880
Speaker 1: needs to but it's gonna be impossible is the Lakers. Right.

802
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 1: I'd love for the Lakers to do something, do something bold,

803
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 1: but there's something bold is gonna be in the offseason

804
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:39,719
Speaker 1: and we move on from Lebron and then we can

805
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,479
Speaker 1: really tailor the team around Luca. Right, You're not gonna

806
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 1: go out. There's nobody suddenly that's gonna become available that

807
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:48,919
Speaker 1: is Oh boy, here's the other rim runner that Luca wanted,

808
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:51,440
Speaker 1: here's the other three and D guy that Luca wanted.

809
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:53,800
Speaker 1: They're not gonna be able to do anything. They're just

810
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:55,960
Speaker 1: gonna have to hope that Austin Reeves is healthy and

811
00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 1: they can get back to being the team they were

812
00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:00,000
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the year, and they can somehow

813
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:03,920
Speaker 1: assimilate and figure things out with Luca, Reeves and Lebron

814
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,120
Speaker 1: the rest of the way, there's nobody riding to the

815
00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:07,799
Speaker 1: rescue even though they need it, because you know they

816
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,120
Speaker 1: need help defensively, you know they need what movie I'm

817
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 1: telling you. Moving on from Lebron. You remember how good

818
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:14,440
Speaker 1: it was for the Lakers beginning of the year when

819
00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 1: they figured things out with Luca number one, and then

820
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 1: Austin Reeves and then the other guys fan they were terrific.

821
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 1: But there's nothing they can really do tomorrow that's going

822
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:25,879
Speaker 1: to change their fortunes in the Western Conference. There's nothing

823
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:29,040
Speaker 1: they can do other than improving from within because the

824
00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,040
Speaker 1: changes they really need to make it. Hey, we're Luca

825
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,080
Speaker 1: centric and now we're back to be in showtime and

826
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:35,879
Speaker 1: running up and down the floor and scoring one hundred

827
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:37,759
Speaker 1: and fifty points a game. That's going to be the

828
00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:39,920
Speaker 1: off season, So it's going to be a frustrating deadline,

829
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:41,919
Speaker 1: I think for those three teams because you're not really

830
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:43,480
Speaker 1: going to see anything out. Yeah, and I think when

831
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:46,759
Speaker 1: you look at the Lakers, you just have the unfortunate

832
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,480
Speaker 1: spot of the only thing that you really could trade

833
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:55,520
Speaker 1: that has potential value is Lebron, but nobody's taking that contract.

834
00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:58,960
Speaker 1: It's well traveled material, here on the show. Folks can

835
00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:01,400
Speaker 1: go find the podcast because Austin Reeves is still on

836
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 1: a really friendly deal. Eventually you got to pay the piper.

837
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:07,320
Speaker 1: But you see how well he plays. He stops the clock,

838
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:10,880
Speaker 1: he hits his free throws, all of those things. Jackson

839
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,439
Speaker 1: Hayes will come back from his one game suspension after

840
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:17,359
Speaker 1: shoving a mascot, so he'll be still filling the rim.

841
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 1: DeAndre Ayton is you know the hit or miss right

842
00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:25,480
Speaker 1: depending on the night. You're gonna get what you can

843
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:27,959
Speaker 1: from him. And Luka doncis you just hope he doesn't

844
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:29,759
Speaker 1: run into the proverbial wall.

845
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:33,319
Speaker 2: That's it. That's all you're wishing and hoping and seeing

846
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,600
Speaker 2: if you can catch lightning in the bottle with the

847
00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:37,400
Speaker 2: right playoff series and matchups.
