As 0:01:48.600 --> 0:01:51.400 I was walking in getting ready to turn on the microphone, 0:01:51.480 --> 0:01:53.680 McLevin goes, you know a fashion trend that I really 0:01:53.720 --> 0:01:56.120 have a problem with, And I go and then I 0:01:56.120 --> 0:01:58.800 close the door. McLevin, do you want to expound upon 0:01:58.880 --> 0:02:01.520 that the fashion trend that you really are bothered by? So, 0:02:01.680 --> 0:02:04.000 when the Danets took over South Beach last week, yeah, 0:02:04.640 --> 0:02:07.920 all the young hipsters are wearing white sneakers instead of 0:02:08.000 --> 0:02:11.600 dark sneakers. Okay, And first of all, I don't look 0:02:11.600 --> 0:02:13.520 good at white sneakers. And second of all, they get 0:02:13.520 --> 0:02:16.000 dirty so fast that I feel like this is a 0:02:16.040 --> 0:02:19.600 fashion investment that I cannot afford to make. Okay, and 0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:23.959 that really bothers you. Yes, the white sneaker trend bothers me. Okay. 0:02:24.160 --> 0:02:27.720 I apologize to the audience for pausing and listening to me. 0:02:28.240 --> 0:02:31.120 I thought it was something dramatic. You should have fought 0:02:32.280 --> 0:02:35.480 stay in there. Yes, Dan, I checked moments ago GEQ 0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:37.880 because Andrew mentioned this, and it's been a couple of 0:02:37.960 --> 0:02:41.359 years now that the dark jeans white sneakers thing has 0:02:41.400 --> 0:02:44.639 been popular and h but he's got a point. Keeping 0:02:44.720 --> 0:02:47.160 them clean seems like a brutal thing. I saw a 0:02:47.160 --> 0:02:49.680 guy on our staff who had brand new sneakers visible. 0:02:49.800 --> 0:02:52.280 They were clean, gorgeous, but by the end of the 0:02:52.320 --> 0:02:53.880 week they looked like he'd rolled him down a flight 0:02:53.919 --> 0:02:56.160 of stairs. Okay, that's it, all right, back to you, 0:02:56.200 --> 0:02:59.239 all right, okay, welcome to the program. As I said 0:02:59.240 --> 0:03:02.320 already in prog Grass. Coming up, we'll talk to Richard Roper, 0:03:02.440 --> 0:03:05.360 film critic for the Chicago Sun Times. The Academy Awards 0:03:05.360 --> 0:03:08.120 coming up this weekend. Steve Levy from the Mothership, we'll 0:03:08.200 --> 0:03:10.680 drop by and we'll check in with Mike Florio from 0:03:10.680 --> 0:03:14.880 Pro Football Talk, as it remains a little bit vague 0:03:14.960 --> 0:03:17.640 with Joe Burrow in the Cincinnati Bengals. I know we 0:03:17.720 --> 0:03:20.640 talked about this yesterday. I heard from the Bengal fans 0:03:21.320 --> 0:03:24.880 and Joe Burrow's dad has talked about the Bengals going 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:27.799 number one. Mike Florio wrote about this as well, so 0:03:27.919 --> 0:03:31.760 we'll talk to Florio. Also, Yes, Steve Levy. By the way, 0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:35.520 big black shoes with a suit, black sneakers with a 0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:37.880 white bottom, is that cool in your mind? That's what 0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:41.880 everyone in ESPN wears, those Kohan blacks. Oh yeah, well 0:03:41.880 --> 0:03:44.680 I started to see that with Howie Long and Michael 0:03:44.720 --> 0:03:48.560 straighthand where you could go casual in the bottom and 0:03:48.560 --> 0:03:51.240 then you could be dressing up top. Yeah, Paul, you're right. 0:03:51.400 --> 0:03:54.400 I was watching Fox and ESPN on Saturday and Sunday 0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:58.880 and all the anchors are wearing like nice sneakers, but 0:03:58.880 --> 0:04:02.200 they're definitely like sketcher type sneakers where they're dark with suits, 0:04:02.440 --> 0:04:05.160 which looks horrendous because you should wear dress shoes with 0:04:05.160 --> 0:04:07.840 a suit. Do you think like a dress shoes company. 0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:10.680 I don't know what the best ones are. Coolhan should 0:04:10.800 --> 0:04:12.720 put a shoe that's got more of a grippy bottom 0:04:12.800 --> 0:04:15.320 instead of a slippy bottom, and then you can have 0:04:15.320 --> 0:04:18.680 a nice dress shoe and look like a gentleman. It's terrible. 0:04:18.680 --> 0:04:20.359 I saw a chefter the other day. He's got this 0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:23.960 two thousand dollars suit on and a pair of sketchers. Yeah, 0:04:24.040 --> 0:04:26.800 but you'd be surprised how much those shoes cost. They 0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:28.600 may not look like they cost a lot, but if 0:04:28.600 --> 0:04:31.359 you look bad, it ruins the whole out. Yeah. But 0:04:31.400 --> 0:04:34.640 that's the new look though, that you have these like 0:04:34.720 --> 0:04:38.279 colorful shoes. So you could have like a blue suede 0:04:38.320 --> 0:04:41.080 and then you can have like green or yellow or 0:04:41.160 --> 0:04:44.440 whatever the sole of the shoe. They're good looking shoes, 0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:47.080 but they're not meant to be warm with a suit. Yeah, 0:04:47.080 --> 0:04:49.240 but you want to be comfortable. I think that's that's 0:04:49.279 --> 0:04:51.760 what they're going for. Yes, then you wouldn't be wearing 0:04:51.800 --> 0:04:55.520 a suit, right, No, your shoes are comfortable while you're 0:04:55.560 --> 0:04:57.839 wearing a shoe if you're standing on your feet, like 0:04:57.880 --> 0:05:01.080 those NFL analysts are for like your four hours a day. 0:05:01.640 --> 0:05:04.160 You know, then you want to be comfortable. I though 0:05:04.200 --> 0:05:06.919 you're gonna say thirty or four minutes. Well, I don't know. 0:05:07.400 --> 0:05:10.360 NFL analyst is really standing on the seat for four hours. Well, 0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:13.560 during the Super Bowl coverage they are. Yes, mclough. I 0:05:13.560 --> 0:05:14.840 know you've talked about it, but what was on the 0:05:14.880 --> 0:05:18.000 bottom when you're doing Sports Center for all those years? Well, 0:05:18.200 --> 0:05:21.040 we wore pants. There were times we wore shorts, and 0:05:21.080 --> 0:05:24.320 then somebody took a wide shot of the Sports Center 0:05:24.400 --> 0:05:27.000 set and somebody had shorts on and that ruined it 0:05:27.120 --> 0:05:29.359 for everybody. Then we had we got yelled at and 0:05:29.360 --> 0:05:31.839 said you got to wear you must wear pants. Imagine 0:05:31.880 --> 0:05:34.400 that meeting where you come in and we want you 0:05:34.440 --> 0:05:37.200 to wear pants. You don't normally hear that from your boss, 0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:39.919 but we did that at ESPN. Yeah, who decided it 0:05:39.960 --> 0:05:42.200 was unprofessional or not a good look for the company 0:05:42.279 --> 0:05:44.520 to have to if you were wearing sweats or not 0:05:44.560 --> 0:05:48.000 to look slovenly, but something comfortable. You're talking Bucks ninety three, 0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:50.520 Raptors eighty eight or four two cubs. Why do you 0:05:50.560 --> 0:05:52.160 have to be in a sports back in the tie, 0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:54.640 whether it's Sports Center or a studio show or whatever. 0:05:54.720 --> 0:05:57.560 Why does it have to be well dressing well? You 0:05:57.600 --> 0:05:59.520 want to be presentable, you're on TV, you want to 0:05:59.520 --> 0:06:01.960 be perfect national. I mean, it is a place of business. 0:06:02.000 --> 0:06:03.479 You don't want to look like a slab. But they 0:06:03.480 --> 0:06:05.960 are coaches that some dress up in some like a belochie, 0:06:06.160 --> 0:06:08.680 but they're not. They're not reporters, they're not at you know, 0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:13.200 people anchors, They're coaches. They can dress like that if 0:06:13.200 --> 0:06:15.120 they want to. Would would it? Boy? Would it bother? 0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:17.080 You would? Would you think the average would be uncomfortable 0:06:17.120 --> 0:06:20.840 if people on TV talking sports weren't in a jacket 0:06:20.839 --> 0:06:24.880 and tie or in like all dressed up. How do 0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:27.800 we get you know what? I apologize I got on 0:06:27.800 --> 0:06:30.600 this topic that I don't know if the only problem 0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:32.560 I have is when you see a golf event and 0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:35.239 you're in a shoot and tie. That's where you should 0:06:35.240 --> 0:06:37.400 be in a golf shirt if you're covering golf. I 0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:39.799 always thought that that was awkward. You'd be out there 0:06:39.800 --> 0:06:42.479 in a suit and tie instead of a golf shirt 0:06:42.560 --> 0:06:45.120 when you're covering the sport, and you'll see that, you know, 0:06:45.160 --> 0:06:48.480 when they go to Nick Faldo and Sara, Nick Faudo 0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:51.120 and Jim Nanson, they got a shooting tie on, or 0:06:51.160 --> 0:06:52.960 at least they have a sport coat in the tie, 0:06:52.960 --> 0:06:54.920 and I always feel that's awkward at a at a 0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:57.760 golf event. Already, if you got a chance to watch 0:06:57.800 --> 0:07:00.280 the Chiefs victory pray, you probably notice one player who 0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:02.159 was a little bit louder than everybody else, and that 0:07:02.200 --> 0:07:05.400 was tight end Travis Kelsey. He's become the unofficial party 0:07:05.520 --> 0:07:09.920 starter for the World Champs and he's reminiscent of Rob Gronkowski. 0:07:10.280 --> 0:07:12.480 You might call it at the Gronk effect, and Kelsey 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:15.680 and Gronk are actually the same exact age. But it 0:07:15.720 --> 0:07:18.480 was the former Patriot who really introduced the concept of 0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:21.680 the highly visible party tight end. When you think about it, 0:07:21.920 --> 0:07:23.680 you know, down through the years there have been great 0:07:23.720 --> 0:07:27.880 tight ends, but you know Mike Ditka after his playing career, 0:07:28.400 --> 0:07:30.840 or you know John Mackie was a wonderful tight end, 0:07:31.880 --> 0:07:34.920 Kellen Winslow, but Gronk was the guy who came out 0:07:34.920 --> 0:07:38.160 and said, I'm basically the personality on this team. And 0:07:38.240 --> 0:07:40.239 back in the day, tight ends were known for blocking 0:07:40.280 --> 0:07:44.120 and occasionally catching passes. Now, when you think of a team, 0:07:44.360 --> 0:07:46.760 you always you know, you start with the quarterback and 0:07:46.760 --> 0:07:48.800 then you a lot of these teams. You look at 0:07:48.840 --> 0:07:50.720 the tight end, you know, look at the Ravens. They 0:07:50.720 --> 0:07:53.760 had three tight ends this year. San Francisco and Kansas 0:07:53.800 --> 0:07:56.880 City both had very very good tight ends. So the 0:07:56.960 --> 0:07:59.720 personality the tight ends, it feels like the tight ends 0:07:59.720 --> 0:08:03.120 are to take over for wide receivers and get into 0:08:03.200 --> 0:08:07.160 the Hey notice us personalities, and certainly with Travis Kelsey 0:08:07.200 --> 0:08:09.960 and Rob Grunkowski leading the way, it's become one of 0:08:10.000 --> 0:08:13.440 the more fan friendly groups in the NFL. It was 0:08:13.480 --> 0:08:16.880 fun yesterday for the Kansas City Chiefs seeing the victory parade. 0:08:17.160 --> 0:08:19.600 You know, parades have changed a lot over the years. 0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:21.280 I don't know where it got to the point where 0:08:21.320 --> 0:08:24.080 you go, give me that microphone. I can say whatever 0:08:24.120 --> 0:08:27.640 I want to because I'm liquored up and I don't 0:08:27.680 --> 0:08:30.720 remember alcohol being involved in a lot of these parades 0:08:31.000 --> 0:08:35.680 years ago. But you know, you're seeing you know, the cavaliers, 0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:38.720 guys got their shirt saw I mean, it's there's no 0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:42.760 decorum whatsoever. It feels like Kansas City was a little 0:08:42.880 --> 0:08:48.400 more modest than what the Philadelphia Eagles had. And that 0:08:48.520 --> 0:08:51.319 was another Kelsey brother in there too, who was leading 0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:53.960 the charge. But it feels like you give somebody a mic. 0:08:54.320 --> 0:08:57.880 We just want a championship. Who cares if there's mothers 0:08:58.440 --> 0:09:00.679 children in the crowd. Maybe it's say in fact, they 0:09:00.679 --> 0:09:04.880 would say mothers. That's what you had yesterday with Kelsey. 0:09:04.920 --> 0:09:08.680 But the congratulations to the Kansas City Chiefs. Here is 0:09:09.040 --> 0:09:14.280 Travis Kelsey at yesterday's victory. Pretty everything look touchdown, every 0:09:14.280 --> 0:09:17.680 single point we score at Arrowhead is going in with 0:09:17.760 --> 0:09:20.840 the anthem and y'all gotta help me stay right here 0:09:21.120 --> 0:09:24.840 one last time for two thousand, ninety two thousand, twenty 0:09:25.040 --> 0:09:37.320 world champions You gotta fight. I love it. Okay, his 0:09:37.520 --> 0:09:41.440 voice is gone. Patrick Mahomes voice, it had always sounded 0:09:41.480 --> 0:09:45.680 like it was ready to go. Here's Mahomes yesterday season 0:09:45.760 --> 0:09:49.240 here burthday. We deal with with the injuries. I mean 0:09:49.280 --> 0:09:51.319 my knee was in the side of my leg, but 0:09:51.480 --> 0:09:57.880 we still went back and we won the Super Bowl. Baby, alrighty, alrighty. 0:09:58.920 --> 0:10:00.680 I don't think we're gonna have I have as Kelsey 0:10:00.760 --> 0:10:02.240 on for a little while. I'll wait till it gets 0:10:02.320 --> 0:10:04.920 his voice back or Patrick Mahomes. Yeah, it's the one 0:10:04.960 --> 0:10:07.360 time in your life you could scream anything into the microphone, 0:10:07.400 --> 0:10:10.000 anything at all, even negative and hundreds of thousand people 0:10:10.000 --> 0:10:12.560 are staring out. I hate that. Make a wish foundation. 0:10:12.640 --> 0:10:18.120 They think, what you just keep lapping? Yes, you just 0:10:18.160 --> 0:10:20.680 don't want to be caught dancing if you can't dance. 0:10:20.720 --> 0:10:23.200 I remember Mark Mattson with the Lakers. Remember we played 0:10:23.200 --> 0:10:28.000 that clip for a year. I think, get a bad Yeah, 0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:30.400 you can do that on that day when you win 0:10:30.440 --> 0:10:33.640 a championship. I don't think anybody's critiquing you. Like if 0:10:33.679 --> 0:10:35.640 we win the sport, When we win the Sports Emmy 0:10:35.720 --> 0:10:39.280 this year, we're dancing. We're dancing on stage. Yeah, we're 0:10:39.280 --> 0:10:43.319 gonna raise the roof when we win the Sports Emmy. Now, 0:10:43.320 --> 0:10:45.760 if I win it individually, I won't be dancing. But 0:10:45.800 --> 0:10:49.439 if we win for a show, then we're up there dancing. Yeah. 0:10:49.480 --> 0:10:51.840 See I'm means plugging down beers too? Out of that, imman, 0:10:51.960 --> 0:10:56.280 just like, uh yeah, I think you've got to fight 0:10:56.360 --> 0:10:59.640 for your right to Lombardi. Sounds a whole lot better, 0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:02.480 and fight for your right to party. I mean, PC 0:11:02.679 --> 0:11:06.000 boys great, but fight for your right to Lombardi. That 0:11:06.200 --> 0:11:08.640 sounded like it was a I figured Travis Kelsey was 0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:11.600 going to trademark that maybe you already had. All right, 0:11:11.600 --> 0:11:13.120 if you like get in touch with the program. You 0:11:13.120 --> 0:11:15.800 can h seven seven three DP show email address DP 0:11:15.920 --> 0:11:18.480 at dan Patrick dot com. I do have some more 0:11:18.840 --> 0:11:22.440 trigger Meat Friday songs. We gave you a couple of 0:11:22.480 --> 0:11:25.640 them yesterday and was at the day before. They were great, 0:11:26.000 --> 0:11:29.520 really well done, and we'll set that up for our 0:11:29.559 --> 0:11:31.720 Meat Madness coming up in March. And then of course 0:11:31.760 --> 0:11:37.080 the final four NBA trade deadline. My Memphis Grizzlies did 0:11:37.120 --> 0:11:40.880 a great job. Now they traded Andre Iguodala, they get 0:11:40.920 --> 0:11:44.680 Justice Winslow. Igudala didn't want to be there. The Memphis 0:11:44.679 --> 0:11:48.040 Grizzlies have had a good year. You know, they're fighting 0:11:48.040 --> 0:11:50.200 for a playoff spot, and you start to look at 0:11:50.240 --> 0:11:53.040 some of the moves that they've made. You get Brandon Clark, 0:11:53.080 --> 0:11:55.240 who I like a lot. They traded Mike Conley and 0:11:55.320 --> 0:12:00.680 Ja Crowder for a future first round pick. They got 0:12:00.720 --> 0:12:05.240 the Heat to take Andrea Gudala, and then they flipped 0:12:05.280 --> 0:12:09.400 Igudala for Justice Winslow. So they've done pretty well here. 0:12:09.600 --> 0:12:12.520 And the Miami Heat or gearing up Miami Heat are 0:12:13.080 --> 0:12:16.280 gonna probably add Danilo Gatlinari, who's a really good addition 0:12:16.400 --> 0:12:19.160 for this team. And the Miami Heat could be the 0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:21.240 second best team in the eighth. You know, we wait 0:12:21.320 --> 0:12:24.040 for the seventy Sixers to be what we thought they were, 0:12:24.080 --> 0:12:25.520 and I don't know if we're going to see that. 0:12:26.720 --> 0:12:29.560 I saw a column today that talked about is it 0:12:29.640 --> 0:12:34.359 time for the Sixers to really consider trading Ben Simmons. 0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:37.440 Marcus Hayes had the article, and keep in mind, the 0:12:37.480 --> 0:12:41.440 Sixers tried to trade for Anthony Davis last year, but 0:12:41.760 --> 0:12:44.720 they realized that Anthony Davis was probably not going to stay. 0:12:45.720 --> 0:12:48.520 Hayes in his column says, as I reported last year, 0:12:48.559 --> 0:12:50.920 the Sixers were willing to trade Simmons last season for 0:12:50.960 --> 0:12:54.120 Anthony Davis, which would have given them the league's best 0:12:54.280 --> 0:12:57.199 big man as well as the number two big man 0:12:57.280 --> 0:13:00.000 in joe El Embiad, But they believe Davis would ball 0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:03.199 gets staying long term, and ownership wasn't eager to admit 0:13:03.240 --> 0:13:07.000 another drafting development failure on the heels of the Marquelle 0:13:07.040 --> 0:13:12.120 Folts fiasco. But somebody, it feels like, has to go, 0:13:12.280 --> 0:13:15.040 either Joel Embiad or Ben Simmons. And Ben Simmons is 0:13:15.040 --> 0:13:18.360 playing extremely well here in the last ten games. You know, 0:13:18.400 --> 0:13:22.880 he's I think twenty three, nine and seven or twenty three, 0:13:23.040 --> 0:13:25.240 eight and nine. You know, he's got some really really 0:13:25.240 --> 0:13:28.480 good numbers here. I just don't know you've got a 0:13:28.520 --> 0:13:30.920 two year window. It feels like with Ben Simmons and 0:13:31.000 --> 0:13:34.720 Joel Embid together, that's my gut feeling, and then you're 0:13:34.760 --> 0:13:38.120 going to go, now it's time to trade somebody. I 0:13:38.120 --> 0:13:40.120 don't know what Ben Simmons is going to be in 0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:42.680 two years. I don't know what Joe l. Embiid is 0:13:42.679 --> 0:13:44.880 going to be in two years. I get a little 0:13:44.920 --> 0:13:49.200 more nervous with Embiid because he's injury prone. I don't 0:13:49.200 --> 0:13:51.120 know if he wants to be great. I think he's 0:13:51.280 --> 0:13:54.560 very good, extremely talented. I just don't know if he 0:13:54.760 --> 0:13:57.600 has that desire to want to kill you to be great. 0:13:58.000 --> 0:14:00.040 And I don't know if Ben Simmons wants to do that. 0:14:00.120 --> 0:14:03.320 Ben Simmons caught heat because speaking of the heat and 0:14:03.400 --> 0:14:06.480 talking about the heat, the Sixers were playing the Heat 0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:09.360 and in Miami, and Ben Simmons was pool side with 0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:13.640 one of the Kardashians, and therefore he must not be 0:14:13.720 --> 0:14:17.920 committed to winning basketball or something he was seeing pool 0:14:17.960 --> 0:14:20.800 side with one of the Kardashians. I'm not going to 0:14:20.840 --> 0:14:23.120 indict him on that. I'm going to indict him because 0:14:23.160 --> 0:14:26.440 he can't shoot and won't. I think he can shoot, 0:14:26.480 --> 0:14:30.400 he just won't shoot. And if you can tell me 0:14:30.560 --> 0:14:32.560 in two years from now that he can go from 0:14:32.600 --> 0:14:35.120 where he is now to where the Greek freak is 0:14:35.200 --> 0:14:38.360 with his shooting ability, I mean, markul Folds is a 0:14:38.400 --> 0:14:43.000 better shooter than Ben Simmons. Who would have thought, But 0:14:43.200 --> 0:14:45.360 that's what I want to know. If I'm the seventy 0:14:45.400 --> 0:14:47.480 sixers and you got to look at this roster, Al 0:14:47.560 --> 0:14:50.520 Horford was supposed to be. That's the missing ingredient here. Boy, 0:14:50.520 --> 0:14:52.880 wait till we get to the postseason. I mean, that's 0:14:52.880 --> 0:14:55.800 why the Heat are bringing in Andrea Goodalla, guys who 0:14:55.880 --> 0:14:59.160 know how to play basketball, because the NBA in the playoffs, 0:14:59.160 --> 0:15:02.000 he's completely different than what you're seeing during the regular season. 0:15:02.480 --> 0:15:05.000 This is just recess time. Go out and have fun 0:15:05.040 --> 0:15:08.320 going down the floor. Playoff basketball gonna be a whole 0:15:08.360 --> 0:15:12.200 lot different. It is every year for James Harden. There's 0:15:12.200 --> 0:15:14.560 a certain team or certain players where you go. It's 0:15:14.600 --> 0:15:18.040 just different. You play them differently or they play differently. 0:15:18.520 --> 0:15:21.520 And if I'm the Philadelphia seventy six Ers, what could 0:15:21.520 --> 0:15:24.240 I get in return for Ben Simmons? What could I 0:15:24.280 --> 0:15:27.480 get in return for Jill WELLMB And that's what it 0:15:27.480 --> 0:15:30.200 comes down to. Is there somebody out there that you 0:15:30.240 --> 0:15:33.120 can get that's going to make you a better team. 0:15:33.840 --> 0:15:38.680 And Ben Simmons fascinates me because Magic Johnson had this 0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:42.200 ability to dominate a game and not score. Magic became 0:15:42.440 --> 0:15:46.200 a respectable shooter. He worked on it. Ben Simmons is 0:15:46.240 --> 0:15:51.000 a larger version of Jason Kidd, a triple double waiting 0:15:51.040 --> 0:15:52.880 to happen, but not going to hurt you with this 0:15:52.960 --> 0:15:55.840 jump shot. And then Jason Kidd learned to rely on 0:15:55.880 --> 0:15:59.200 that jump shot later in his career. But if I'm Philadelphia, 0:15:59.320 --> 0:16:01.600 I really have to start looking at this and say, 0:16:01.760 --> 0:16:05.800 you know, Toronto's got a sneaky good roster there, and 0:16:05.880 --> 0:16:07.840 they got a great front office, and you might have 0:16:07.920 --> 0:16:11.680 the best coach in the NBA. They're not going away. 0:16:12.520 --> 0:16:16.120 And if I look at Miami, what pat Riley has done, 0:16:16.640 --> 0:16:21.560 you know is sustainable. Riles is a great GM president 0:16:21.960 --> 0:16:25.480 and he never stops. He has this question. You know, 0:16:25.480 --> 0:16:27.800 He's like Jerry West, like they just never stopped. They 0:16:27.840 --> 0:16:31.480 want to they want to win Philadelphia. I think Brett 0:16:31.480 --> 0:16:33.760 Brown is coaching first job. You know, if they don't 0:16:33.760 --> 0:16:36.680 go to the NBA at least the Eastern Conference finals. 0:16:36.720 --> 0:16:40.000 He might lose his job here. Milwaukee is great, we 0:16:40.120 --> 0:16:43.480 know that, But who is going to challenge Milwaukee here? 0:16:44.040 --> 0:16:46.840 And I don't know if it's Philadelphia? I thought it was, 0:16:47.240 --> 0:16:50.880 but I don't know if it is. Yeah, mclovin, isn't 0:16:50.920 --> 0:16:52.880 this on the coach that Simmons an MBID can't work 0:16:52.880 --> 0:16:58.680 together to some extent. I would hope that they could divide. 0:16:58.680 --> 0:17:00.640 I don't know what you devised. Or you have a 0:17:00.720 --> 0:17:04.000 big man who's outside and you got a point guard 0:17:04.359 --> 0:17:09.320 who's great inside. It's just a weird combo there, and 0:17:09.680 --> 0:17:13.520 they just don't It doesn't fit. It's awkward when you 0:17:13.520 --> 0:17:16.280 watch that team play. Yeah. Can I give you two 0:17:16.400 --> 0:17:21.680 completely nonsensical trade scenarios as Andrew from Satin Island calling 0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:25.520 into the dam patch? Okay? Can I give you joellenb 0:17:25.720 --> 0:17:31.399 to Phoenix for Devin Booker? Okayning, but Phoenix has a 0:17:31.480 --> 0:17:33.639 big man. Yeah, we get eight and too. I didn't 0:17:33.640 --> 0:17:36.639 I forgot. Oh, you get eight Booker for Joe? Why 0:17:36.640 --> 0:17:38.800 would Phoenix do that? We'll give you Josh Richardson in 0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:42.360 that deal? And why would Day wouldn't know they wouldn't. Yes, 0:17:42.720 --> 0:17:45.520 there's seventy figures draft history. It's not near as good 0:17:45.520 --> 0:17:47.720 as it appears. You know, all the players that they 0:17:47.800 --> 0:17:50.680 draft either washed out or played well elsewhere. Going back 0:17:50.680 --> 0:17:53.680 from Michael Carter Williams, Joel Embad panned up for a bit, 0:17:53.760 --> 0:17:57.840 Joe lil Oka for it done, Ben Simmons, Marquel Foltz, 0:17:58.119 --> 0:18:00.399 Mikaal Bridges who they traded and got. Basically I hear 0:18:00.440 --> 0:18:02.920 Smith who doesn't play. You can go back. There's guys 0:18:02.920 --> 0:18:04.960 like they've had Lou Williams on their team, Andre Goodala, 0:18:04.960 --> 0:18:07.240 and they all moved on. Even the players they drafted 0:18:07.240 --> 0:18:12.120 that were good eventually just leave. It's a tough history. Yeah, 0:18:12.160 --> 0:18:14.440 so I think the worst drafting team of all time 0:18:16.560 --> 0:18:21.119 h in any sport or just the NBA. Let's just 0:18:21.200 --> 0:18:23.560 keep it to the NBA. Okay, now are you kidding me? 0:18:24.160 --> 0:18:26.159 At least they got sim and mb like remember the 0:18:26.160 --> 0:18:30.200 old Cavs team, Like they they those guys were right 0:18:30.200 --> 0:18:32.560 there for them to take. There was no strategy. They 0:18:32.640 --> 0:18:35.440 just go, oh, Ben Simon's the best player, will take him. 0:18:35.920 --> 0:18:38.800 I mean, be brought the risk of his back injury, 0:18:39.080 --> 0:18:42.040 but you know, still extremely talented by none of this 0:18:42.119 --> 0:18:45.000 is on Sam Hinky, the process guy. They're all Colangelo 0:18:45.119 --> 0:18:47.600 Elton Brand Man. That's true, and then you know there's 0:18:48.680 --> 0:18:51.080 there's not a big or a high confidence level in 0:18:51.119 --> 0:18:53.600 Elton brand being able to make some moves here for 0:18:53.640 --> 0:18:57.280 the seventy six ers. But I'm curious if if those 0:18:57.320 --> 0:19:01.359 guys are off the market like anybody else you can have, 0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:03.360 but those two guys you're not. You're not gonna trade. 0:19:03.359 --> 0:19:06.920 They're untouchable. But I don't know, I'm curious. I don't 0:19:06.960 --> 0:19:08.679 know if there's any big deal that goes down. I 0:19:08.680 --> 0:19:11.359 think the Sixers, you know, do they make something. The 0:19:11.440 --> 0:19:14.359 Lakers and Clippers, you know that possibility. I think Golden 0:19:14.359 --> 0:19:17.000 State's trying to get rid of DeAngelo Russell, But on 0:19:17.040 --> 0:19:19.920 the net doesn't seem like there's much going on. Yeah, Paul, 0:19:20.000 --> 0:19:22.440 I googled the worst NBA draft history and the first 0:19:22.480 --> 0:19:28.480 game that came up was the LA Clippers. Unfortunately, Okay, 0:19:28.560 --> 0:19:30.480 and I could go through a lot of days, but 0:19:30.480 --> 0:19:33.240 we don't have the time. Okay, it was bad though, 0:19:33.240 --> 0:19:35.119 it's bad, especially in the eighties and nineties. Remember all 0:19:35.160 --> 0:19:39.640 over Candy when Michael Dark and Vince Carter and these 0:19:39.680 --> 0:19:43.080 guys are right behind them, and you can go Benjamin, Oh, 0:19:43.119 --> 0:19:49.040 you can go for days ben Wa Benjamin Yeah, bo Kimpbell. 0:19:49.920 --> 0:19:53.960 Oh the Sixers, the Sixers might be up there. No 0:19:54.119 --> 0:19:57.000 way there there in the history. There weren't the great 0:19:57.000 --> 0:20:00.320 No in the last twenty years years Didlie look for 0:20:00.480 --> 0:20:03.000 draft by the way, it was nobody would. That was 0:20:03.040 --> 0:20:05.040 the one draft with the whole first raft was that 0:20:05.240 --> 0:20:08.600 Nerlands Noel. One of those drafts had the one where 0:20:08.600 --> 0:20:12.199 the calf didn't make take Neurlands Noel and jelil Yeah, 0:20:12.200 --> 0:20:14.639 and they got jalil ok for but it was it 0:20:14.680 --> 0:20:16.720 was because the one and done and like it was 0:20:16.800 --> 0:20:21.639 bad drafts. Remember the Calves told Bennett and like, nobody, 0:20:21.720 --> 0:20:25.240 that's where you. I would watch U and LB play 0:20:25.280 --> 0:20:28.920 and I had no idea that Anthony Bennett was any good. 0:20:29.320 --> 0:20:30.800 Like I would see him and go, all right, he's 0:20:30.800 --> 0:20:32.399 a nice college player. And then all of a sudden 0:20:32.440 --> 0:20:34.119 when the Calves are taking him and I go, where's 0:20:34.160 --> 0:20:37.520 he playing? The like UNLB And I'm like, I've watched 0:20:37.680 --> 0:20:40.720 UNLB play and he didn't stand out. Yeah, pull he 0:20:40.720 --> 0:20:42.840 had the build of Zion Williamson without any of the 0:20:42.840 --> 0:20:47.040 athletic ability like he couldn't get rim. He could get 0:20:47.160 --> 0:20:48.760 net though, Oh yeah, he gets scrape the net like 0:20:48.800 --> 0:20:50.520 me and I always like that. You know, when you're young, 0:20:50.600 --> 0:20:53.360 you're going, hey, man, he can get rim and then 0:20:53.359 --> 0:20:55.240 you're just trying to get net. That was a big deal. 0:20:55.320 --> 0:20:57.040 Or you could slap the backboard when you went in 0:20:57.080 --> 0:20:58.879 for your layup like that was a big deal. Like, 0:20:59.000 --> 0:21:02.240 whoa man, you see that he slapped the backboard. Didn't 0:21:02.240 --> 0:21:04.119
