So over the weekend if you have 37 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 2: not heard, you somehow missed it under the cloak of darkness, 38 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 2: meaning you're out doing stuff. It's the summer and the 39 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 2: first weekend in August. I'm assuming you're not sitting around 40 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 2: there paying attention to the sports transaction wire to the 41 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 2: suddenly Skinny o Zembeka hell of a drug. Suddenly Skinny 42 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:49,959 Speaker 2: Luca now has a very fat wallet. Now he already 43 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 2: had a fat bank account, but his wallet is bursting. 44 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,639 Speaker 1: Luca Doncik sonny. 45 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 2: A five year, five year, one hundred and sixty five 46 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:05,239 Speaker 2: million dollars extension with the Purple and Gold, Lot of gold, 47 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 2: lot of gold right there, a lot of goal. Keep 48 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 2: in mind that that's not really a five year deal. 49 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 2: He's going to opt out of that in less than 50 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 2: five years. But let us discuss the question how big 51 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 2: a deal is Luca Dncik's one hundred and sixty five 52 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 2: million dollar extension. 53 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 1: With the Lakers. Put that in into some perspective. 54 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 2: So on this one, I've got launching pad, the full 55 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 2: Monty and Larry David and we will combine all of 56 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 2: these things together and we are going to make. 57 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: Some hookah for hookah, Luca, is what we're going to do. 58 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 2: So Number, I said Number. Everyone freaking out like this 59 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 2: is a massive moment, a point of demarcation. And I 60 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 2: opened my inbox and when I deleted all the blind 61 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 2: Scott emails that he sends to me. 62 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: I then went through the other email and it was 63 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: it's over. Now Luca's a Laker for life. It's over. 64 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: Clippers suck, you know everything. I didn't bring up. 65 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 2: I didn't email these people to email me these idiots. Surprisingly, 66 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 2: not one of them from Rick. Oh usually I Rick 67 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 2: always the one that sends those messages, but this was 68 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 2: some other people who are semi regulars in the email chain. 69 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 2: So anyway, listen, in terms of this being some kind 70 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,919 Speaker 2: of massive moment spoiler alert, it's not. It's not a 71 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 2: massive moment. It's a bridge deal. It's think of it 72 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 2: like in Nascar, it's a pit stop. Now the race 73 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 2: isn't over when you go to pitt Row. It's not over. 74 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 2: You have a pit stop. The race continues, right, you 75 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 2: go to the gas station in this case, you get 76 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 2: some gas there, maybe you get some snacks in the 77 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:51,839 Speaker 2: little mini mart there at the gas station. 78 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: And now the real money, though, is in twenty twenty eight. 79 00:04:55,920 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 2: So this is just a vehicle to get to eight 80 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 2: and it's not about the Lakers. This idea that some 81 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 2: of you idiots have see Luca's falling in love with 82 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 2: the Lakers. 83 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 1: He loves the Laker, wants to be a Laker for life. 84 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: Oh my god. 85 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 2: He loves Hollywood, loves La the whole thing. It's not 86 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 2: about that. It's not about the loyalty. It's not it's 87 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 2: about building the launching pad. This is about building the 88 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 2: launching pad, and the missile is filled with money, money, money, money. 89 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 2: Luca playing financial chess here and so again, this is 90 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:35,359 Speaker 2: not if he'd been traded to Minnesota or Sacramento or 91 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 2: Atlanta or New Orleans, he would have done the same thing. 92 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 2: It is wise financially to play this game. Contracts don't 93 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 2: matter if Luca decides two years from now or three 94 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 2: years from now, I don't. 95 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:49,840 Speaker 1: Really like being a Laker. I don't like La. 96 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 2: The player dictates in that world where they go. Luca 97 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 2: can manipulate things and decide where they where he wants 98 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:02,279 Speaker 2: to play next. So that's the reality of that particular situation. 99 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 2: And so he's playing a little bit chess. As we 100 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 2: said there, it's strategic. That's the move he signs now, 101 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,919 Speaker 2: assuming he stays healthy, has no major injuries, he keeps 102 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 2: getting all NBA selections. 103 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: And buy them. 104 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 2: Twenty twenty eight comes around and he's now eligible for 105 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 2: the I believe I read the largest contract I think 106 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 2: is what I read over the weekend in NBA history 107 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 2: is like four hundred and seventeen million dollars or something 108 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 2: like that. That's the real money, that's the real prize, 109 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 2: not that one hundred and sixty five million. Listen, if 110 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 2: I got paid one hundred and sixty five MILLI I 111 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 2: can't even get a raise from this place. If I 112 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,719 Speaker 2: got paid one hundred sixty five million, my god, that 113 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 2: would be great. But it's the NBA economics right that 114 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 2: starter cash for a guy like Luke one hundred and 115 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 2: sixty five million. So this is a setup, situation, set 116 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 2: up job. It's a stopover, and he's just pulling in, 117 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 2: as we said, to the rest stop or the pit stop. 118 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 2: He's pulling into the rest in this case, grabbing a gatorade, 119 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 2: some chips, possibly a candy bar, and then. 120 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 1: In three years he will go again. Bam. 121 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 2: Let's kick it up a notch and let's get that 122 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 2: real money money money now. 123 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 1: Page two. 124 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 2: Are you surprised? Are you surprised that Luca is locking 125 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 2: in with the Lakers right now immediately? So I've already 126 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 2: revealed my hand if he's rather obvious, I'm not surprised. 127 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 2: As I said, this is some kind of rhetorical question. 128 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 2: You got to be joking, right, you gotta be joking, 129 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 2: Like Luca was hand delivered by Nico Harrison. And we 130 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 2: can get into the conspiracy theories if you'd like. We've 131 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 2: done that a lot. But he was hand delivered to 132 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 2: La by Nico Harrison, and more likely than not, there 133 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 2: was some manipulation at the league office, whether that was 134 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 2: Adam Silver or somebody below Adam Silver, but it was 135 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 2: an inside job. It's an inside job. And you are 136 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 2: the MAVs, all right, you're the MAVs. You're willing to 137 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 2: trade Luca Danci and you only allow one team to 138 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 2: bid on him. Are you out of your bloody mind? 139 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 2: But that's what happens. So that just doesn't pass any 140 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 2: kind of test, any kind of test, and so we're 141 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 2: not gonna go readjudicate that right now. But this is 142 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 2: what the Lakers have always done. This is why people 143 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 2: don't take the Lakers seriously. They're a joke franchise. Everything's 144 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 2: given to them. Anyone else you have to earn your things. 145 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 2: The Lakers just everything's given to them, This is why 146 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 2: people hate the Lakers and why Laker haters. There's more 147 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 2: Laker hitters than Laker lovers. They're given the stars and 148 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 2: then they seduce them and all this non Hollywood shoe commercials, 149 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 2: you name it, the court side movie moguls, which don't 150 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 2: matter as much anymore now it's more about social media 151 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 2: influences and all that. 152 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: But it's the same playbook. 153 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 2: The only difference here, the only difference here is that 154 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 2: Luca wants to get to that big money. And so 155 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 2: to get to that big money, you got to have 156 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 2: this little I see, little one hundred sixty five million, 157 00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 2: but you got to get this contract. 158 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 1: And he sees the long game. 159 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 2: He sees the long game, and he knows that la 160 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 2: gets you a global stage and all that stuff. And 161 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 2: so you want the four hundred million Supermax. From what 162 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 2: I read over the weekend, you gotta you gotta stick 163 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 2: around till twenty twenty eight and then you're everywhere, You're 164 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 2: You're everywhere, you're you know, make another Space Jam movie 165 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 2: for Luca. Whatever you want, right, whatever you want, you're 166 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 2: gonna get. And Dallas would have given him. He would 167 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,559 Speaker 2: have made more money right now, had he not been 168 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 2: traded by the Mavericks, and so the risk is he's 169 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 2: gonna get hurt or get fat again and fall in 170 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:43,200 Speaker 2: love with the tremendous food options that are out there, 171 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 2: and then that'll cause some issues here. But Luca is 172 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 2: positioning himself much like Lebron. Lebron didn't come to LA 173 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,199 Speaker 2: because he wanted to play for the Lakers. He came 174 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 2: to LA because he wanted to make crappy movies and 175 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 2: have his terrible TV show picked up, and he got 176 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 2: everything you wanted. He got all that by playing for 177 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 2: the Lakers. And that was a while ago, right Lebron 178 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 2: got out of the winning business. Lakers haven't won a 179 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 2: championship with Lebron, So lucas there he gets the full Monty. 180 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 2: At this particular point, he's going to get the full Monty. 181 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 2: It's the branding, the imaging, all that stuff and a 182 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 2: few months so, oh, it's the legacy. I don't know 183 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 2: about that, but MVPs and titles and all that stuff. 184 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 2: And he wants the statue, the all inclusive full Monty 185 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 2: package statue next to Kobe, all that stuff, like the 186 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 2: mausoleum out in front of that skid Row arena, they 187 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 2: play in there. But this is really the calm before 188 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 2: the financial storm. It is the NBA's new TV deal, 189 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 2: which just is kicking in this next year with the 190 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 2: Amazon and NBC picking up part of that. 191 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 1: The cap is going. 192 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:53,599 Speaker 2: To explode, and Luca knows, his agents know it, the 193 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 2: Lakers know it, everyone involved is aware of what's going 194 00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 2: to happen here, and so he isn't He isn't settling 195 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 2: because this is what his preferred destination. He's settling because 196 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 2: this is how to get to his destination, which is 197 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 2: the next contract. So this is just the takeoff point 198 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 2: one hundred sixty five million, which used to be the mountaintop. 199 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 2: That used to be the mountaintop. It's not the mountaintop 200 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 2: for Luca. That's just the base camp the summit. The 201 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 2: summit is three years away and really less than in 202 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 2: August now, so you get through the rest of twenty 203 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 2: twenty five, twenty six, twenty seven. 204 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: And then in twenty eight. 205 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:32,839 Speaker 2: So I guess it's like it is kind of almost 206 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 2: three years, but twenty twenty eight, that's when you go 207 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 2: to the mount supermax wonderful mountaintop. Thin air, good air quality, 208 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 2: good air quality, not a lot of pollution pretty solid now, 209 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,679 Speaker 2: final point. So one of the comments, as you would expect, 210 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 2: there are some cliches you're supposed to say when you 211 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 2: sign an extension with a team, you talk about how 212 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 2: you want to win and you're committed to winning, and 213 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 2: Lucas said that. I saw some of his quotes over 214 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 2: the weekend. Luka Dotzik said he is confident in the Lakers' 215 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 2: title chances. He said, saying we're going for it. That 216 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 2: was the quote, We're going for it. So question for 217 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 2: the esteem panel are the Lakers a championship contender as 218 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:19,959 Speaker 2: they are currently constructed or are they a mirage pretender? 219 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 2: So the arrow is pointing towards the Mirage and it's 220 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 2: not the hotel in Vegas here, So let's hold off 221 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 2: on the parade down figure roh through skid row. The 222 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 2: roster is much more of a house of cards situation 223 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 2: at this particular point. It's a house of card situation 224 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,839 Speaker 2: than a championship roster, and so it is a mirage. Look, 225 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 2: Lebron James is headed to year twenty three. We still 226 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 2: don't know for sure whether Lebron's going to be on 227 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 2: the team or not. He's still having daily conniption fits 228 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 2: with the Lakers. He's very upset that he's no longer 229 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 2: the one that's at the very top of the pyramid 230 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 2: now that he's been usurped. Alf likes to say usurped 231 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 2: by Luke. And that's the direction he's gone from the 232 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 2: chosen one Lebron, to the confused one at this particular 233 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 2: point in time and again griping these tabloid reports. Lebron 234 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 2: griping behind the scenes about being downgraded in the chain 235 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,199 Speaker 2: of command with the Lakers there and he's upset that 236 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 2: Luca is now the teacher's pet and that bothers him 237 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 2: and he's annoyed by that. 238 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 1: Now. 239 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 2: It's unfortunate, but this is the reality of Lebron as 240 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 2: a Laker. People talked about Lebron back in the day 241 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 2: chasing rings. The only rings Lebron's chasing now are ones 242 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 2: made out of onions, if you know what I mean. 243 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 2: And you still have his buddy podcaster coach now. The 244 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:47,960 Speaker 2: real moment in this story where things change is the 245 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 2: moment they get rid of Lebron's buddy, the podcast guy, 246 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,719 Speaker 2: JJ Reddick, who embarrassed himself as a coach last year 247 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 2: and in over his head. He loves to oose arrogance, 248 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 2: though JJ Reddick he's the smartest guy in the room. 249 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 2: Just ask him, he'll tell you. In fact, you don't 250 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 2: even have to ask him, and JJ will tell you 251 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:06,959 Speaker 2: what a wonderful person he is when he acts like 252 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 2: complete a hole. Now, as far as the supported cast 253 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 2: a championship roster legible acording to Loca, they're going for it. 254 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 2: So let's break that down scientifically. So you're building a 255 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 2: championship roster with spare parts. 256 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 1: Is that how that works? I'm looking right. 257 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 2: So DeAndre Ayton, who has the competitive fire of a 258 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 2: scented candle, was one of your big pickups this year. 259 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 2: So hey, listen, people like scented My wife loves scented candles. 260 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 2: A lot of people love scented candles. I don't really 261 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 2: build a championship on a scented candle. Marcus Smart, nice player, 262 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 2: hustle guy, glue guy, Marcus Smart, great haircut, and can't shoot. 263 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: Can't shoot And. 264 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 2: At this point a lot of miles on the odometer 265 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 2: from Marcus Smart. He's more name than game and certainly 266 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 2: never was all that great in the game. Then you 267 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:00,120 Speaker 2: got Austin Reees. This is the biggest problem that I 268 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 2: I have. So Lebron's unhappy, he wants out. But Austin Reeves, 269 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 2: can we all agree overaded? Did he not get exposed 270 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 2: by Minnesota in the playoffs last year? He got hunted 271 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 2: on defense every possession by the Minnesota Timberwolves. His offensive 272 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 2: game couldn't make it up. They thought that they had 273 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 2: the Lakers Alex Caruso two point zero, and it turns 274 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 2: out he's just another phony regular season guy at this point, 275 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 2: Austin Reeves, who disappears when it matters most. There's a 276 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 2: dime a dozen and he was exposed in the playoffs 277 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 2: this past year. And so yeah, they got Luca. He's 278 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 2: in shape. Congratulations ozempic whatever he's doing. Congratulations that he 279 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 2: showed up in La looking like you know, he passed, 280 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 2: passed up on all the offseason buffets and all that 281 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 2: these photos, the spread and men's health, all that stuff. 282 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 1: However, let's revisit. 283 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 2: This, you and I, We're going to revisit this storyline 284 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 2: around pick a date January seventeenth, just an arbitrary date. Well, 285 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 2: check back in January seventeenth.

And then he will be dope 292 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 2: kitch is instead of you know what I mean. Anyway, listen, 293 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 2: we'll see Luca. He's looking great now, and that's wonderful 294 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 2: and all that. And of course by the time the 295 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 2: season gets going mid season, is it gonna look like 296 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 2: he just came off. 297 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: A three day weekend. 298 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 2: All you all inclusive, eat whatever you want, cruise and 299 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 2: you know, roll him off the boat, if you know 300 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 2: what I mean. 301 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 1: And as Larry David taught me, one of the great. 302 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 2: Philosophers are at I'm nobody likes a wobbly table. The 303 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 2: Lakers roster is a wobbly table. They're not a real contender. 304 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:11,680 Speaker 2: They're a wobbly coffee table. And for some low information fans, 305 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 2: it looks like they're a functional roster on paper or 306 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 2: a depth chart on it collapses under pressure. 307 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,400 Speaker 1: Then the glue there is not enough. 308 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:27,400 Speaker 2: It's glued together, mismatched pieces around Luca and you hope 309 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,120 Speaker 2: for the best. That's not much of a plant. It's 310 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 2: not much of a plan. So hoping a prayer, right 311 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,199 Speaker 2: winging a prayer, hoping a prayer, all that stuff, and 312 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 2: there's a lot of volatilities still to be determined, and 313 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:44,120 Speaker 2: very little continuity regarding the situation with the Lakers and 314 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 2: the stars are bright, the foundation flimsy with a capital F. 315 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 1: It is the Ben Maller Show. 316 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:51,959 Speaker 2: You want to come in on any of that, you 317 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 2: can join us right now and say hello at eight 318 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:58,360 Speaker 2: seven seven ninety nine on Fox.

And 331 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:44,160 Speaker 2: again the Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson says he cut out 332 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 2: blank out of his diet, saying he needed to be 333 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:52,480 Speaker 2: more of a pro with his eating.
