He's gonna be calling game 0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:54.760 for NBC next season, the one, the only. Jamal Crawford. Jamal, 0:02:54.800 --> 0:02:55.480 how you doing, bro? 0:02:56.720 --> 0:03:01.560 I'm good? Old Nation got big all right. 0:03:03.120 --> 0:03:08.600 The trade that happened last night, Luca a superstar, beyond superstar, 0:03:08.720 --> 0:03:12.160 a global superstar in this absolute He's not even here 0:03:12.200 --> 0:03:13.240 his prime yet, Jamal. 0:03:13.480 --> 0:03:15.280 He's twenty five years of age. 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:20.320 He's a five time first team All NBA player, and 0:03:20.400 --> 0:03:23.720 they traded him for Anthony Davis and a first round 0:03:23.800 --> 0:03:28.000 pick and I think twenty twenty nine and Max Christi 0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:32.440 and in return, the Lakers get Luca, they gets Max Kleeber, 0:03:32.720 --> 0:03:34.800 and they get Mark Kif Marris who was already he 0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:38.000 was on the twenty twenty Laker team that won the championship. 0:03:38.160 --> 0:03:42.080 So Lakers received Luca, Maxi, Kleber, Markif Marris. The MAVs 0:03:42.080 --> 0:03:45.160 get Anthony Davis, Max Christi, and a twenty twenty nine 0:03:45.200 --> 0:03:49.920 first round pick. Also, the Jazz received Jalen Hoodson, a Scarafino, 0:03:50.320 --> 0:03:52.800 a twenty twenty five second round pick, a twenty twenty 0:03:52.840 --> 0:03:55.320 five second round pick Bill the Clippers. 0:03:55.920 --> 0:03:58.520 Jamal, when you heard this trade, I thought it was 0:03:58.560 --> 0:03:59.080 bull jive. 0:03:59.120 --> 0:04:01.560 I thought somebody had had because it ain't no way 0:04:01.640 --> 0:04:04.000 the Maths to trade Luca. But lloy and behold, it 0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:07.640 is absolutely true. Luca dantic If on the move, Anthony 0:04:07.720 --> 0:04:10.400 Davis going to the Mavericks. What is your assessment of 0:04:10.440 --> 0:04:12.640 the trade. Why do you think this trade happened? 0:04:14.000 --> 0:04:14.440 I'm with you. 0:04:14.760 --> 0:04:16.120 I thought it was I thought it was a little 0:04:16.120 --> 0:04:19.440 guys at first two. It ain't no way Luke's being traded, 0:04:19.560 --> 0:04:21.000 like you said, all the exactly the way. 0:04:21.480 --> 0:04:22.520 He ain't staring. 0:04:23.080 --> 0:04:26.640 And if i'll be young NBA star, I'm not comfortable 0:04:26.640 --> 0:04:29.800 anywhere if Lukens can be traded at this fad where 0:04:29.920 --> 0:04:33.320 exactly where he was going. Anybody be traded better. I 0:04:33.400 --> 0:04:36.159 said last year on Shock's podcast, I said, if I'm Laker, 0:04:36.160 --> 0:04:38.560 I'm looking at trade every day, and people thought I 0:04:38.600 --> 0:04:41.159 was trading. I said, Lebron is still the best player 0:04:41.240 --> 0:04:43.760 right now. You got to have better pieces company. Yes, 0:04:43.800 --> 0:04:46.200 they wanted to bubble. Yes, the Lebron is still ain't 0:04:46.240 --> 0:04:49.400 looking like he's Lebron. So with that being said, I 0:04:49.440 --> 0:04:51.440 gotta get pieced. I didn't know Luke's on the table 0:04:51.480 --> 0:04:54.479 when they happened. Who knew, but become to la. I 0:04:54.560 --> 0:04:57.120 gotta take that beer. I had to because now you're 0:04:57.120 --> 0:04:59.680 going for the now and the future. As Lebron says, 0:04:59.720 --> 0:05:01.920 you know, I'm gonna wear it down. I'm gonna hang 0:05:01.960 --> 0:05:03.880 it out. Whatever the idea is more two three for me. 0:05:04.120 --> 0:05:08.440 You have a bonified superstar that now we who other 0:05:08.480 --> 0:05:11.000 people want to play there? Nucles backs off, so we go. 0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:15.200 He's gonna bring me a Hollywood white Fish, Hollywood Dan Book, 0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:18.760 all the other Dallas. It's a perfect compliment to Kyrie. 0:05:19.240 --> 0:05:21.680 They obviously are gonna make some Morena move. They didn't 0:05:21.680 --> 0:05:23.320 trust the fact they're gonna have to be in Luke 0:05:23.320 --> 0:05:25.719 almost four hundred million dollars. But I's going off the college. 0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:28.720 See it's really loud right now because now we're looking like, no, 0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:31.360 what happy trade? Like they had to do stuff thing 0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:33.760 we don't know about, you. 0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:37.719 Know, you know I also, I mean, I'm curious. I'm thinking. 0:05:37.720 --> 0:05:38.800 I'm thinking of the head a little bit. 0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:40.440 I'm thinking ahead little bit. Obviously it had to be 0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:43.520 something internally for them to trade such a great prayer 0:05:43.640 --> 0:05:45.360 like that, like like both of you said, it's not 0:05:45.480 --> 0:05:49.200 even in his prime. So I'm looking forward to obviously 0:05:49.320 --> 0:05:51.719 the future because Kyrie can opt out in the summer, 0:05:52.200 --> 0:05:55.280 and what are the chances Kyrie actually joining Lebron again. 0:05:55.360 --> 0:05:57.840 I'm assuming Lebron comes back next year as well, and 0:05:57.960 --> 0:05:59.880 you have Luca, Kyrie and Lebron. 0:06:01.720 --> 0:06:03.880 So for me, I think, I honest see that could 0:06:03.880 --> 0:06:06.120 have been an election, but Kile God would have some 0:06:06.240 --> 0:06:08.200 type of play like you know what, I could have 0:06:08.240 --> 0:06:10.600 easily been loving, Like I'm saying, my contracts up next year. 0:06:10.600 --> 0:06:13.080 They chose to stick with me and Megal Jason Pierre 0:06:13.160 --> 0:06:16.320 speaks about Card He's always sneaking glory. He does everything 0:06:16.440 --> 0:06:18.480 you want. He playing with ad act be a ky 0:06:18.560 --> 0:06:21.120 another win cash back to be a point guard. He's 0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:23.280 still this fun who's still doing nothing. He still makes 0:06:23.320 --> 0:06:25.440 it look easy. You got a d you got a 0:06:25.520 --> 0:06:28.120 bunch of money, possibly with the other moons to be made. 0:06:28.440 --> 0:06:30.360 If I'm time like, you know what, they stuck with me, 0:06:30.520 --> 0:06:33.279 and also they have't nobody else wanted to get multiple 0:06:33.320 --> 0:06:35.560 years on the contract. Well, so you don't condeict that 0:06:35.640 --> 0:06:36.159 type of staff. 0:06:36.480 --> 0:06:38.800 Okay, yeah, I'm looking at it, and I've said this. 0:06:39.000 --> 0:06:43.840 Everybody knows this is not right now. I called I 0:06:44.000 --> 0:06:46.680 gave Luca the name baby Bird because I thought he 0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:48.640 was that special. He was the closest white player I 0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:51.120 had ever seen the lad Bird. Everybody knew lad Bird 0:06:51.240 --> 0:06:53.920 was my favorite, but I always questioned. I said, he 0:06:53.960 --> 0:06:55.680 looked like he's out of shape. I said, he looks 0:06:55.720 --> 0:06:58.120 like he's unconditioned. He looked like he doesn't take his 0:06:58.240 --> 0:07:01.760 training and his condition seriously, his training seriously, and he 0:07:01.920 --> 0:07:05.240 has some habits that you know, if you look at 0:07:05.320 --> 0:07:09.240 Rick Carlyle, you got Luca. Guys don't normally say nah, 0:07:09.320 --> 0:07:13.080 I'm good and leave a superstar player that's only twenty 0:07:13.120 --> 0:07:15.320 two years of age, Jamal. So there was something that 0:07:15.480 --> 0:07:17.680 was some things that was going on that wasn't being 0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:20.480 talked about. But if you know the game and you see, 0:07:20.880 --> 0:07:24.440 you like something ain't adding up. And then plus Luca 0:07:24.600 --> 0:07:26.680 is scheduled. He was the first player that was gonna 0:07:26.680 --> 0:07:29.800 be able to get the Supermax five years, three hundred 0:07:29.800 --> 0:07:33.080 and forty five million, So basically sixty nine million dollars 0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:37.480 a year, Jamal. If a guy's unconditioned, he doesn't take 0:07:37.560 --> 0:07:40.600 his training serious, he doesn't take conditioning serious, and there's 0:07:40.640 --> 0:07:43.559 some other things going around. If I give him sixty 0:07:43.680 --> 0:07:47.880 nine million, Jamal, and he might have some power that 0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:50.440 we need to rustle away from him. And if you 0:07:50.560 --> 0:07:54.880 hear listen to ni Ko says, he says something by culture. 0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:57.760 When I hear that, Jamal, I don't know about you, 0:07:58.000 --> 0:07:59.320 but my ears per cup. 0:08:01.600 --> 0:08:03.880 Their coaching means and something beyond scenes that he's not 0:08:03.960 --> 0:08:07.040 happeny with. And like we all know that the one 0:08:07.200 --> 0:08:10.840 question in all the sports and in life period you entertaining, 0:08:10.880 --> 0:08:13.920 bit are you gathering your problem? And Linda is gathering 0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:16.480 his problem. So that's why I'm shocking's happened. Even with 0:08:16.520 --> 0:08:19.720 all that going on, he's swooning too. He can't learn 0:08:19.880 --> 0:08:21.400 them mature and you can learn over and see Cayley 0:08:21.640 --> 0:08:24.040 whoever the professional guard. JA don want the best point 0:08:24.080 --> 0:08:26.880 guards ever. So that's the shocking general, And part of 0:08:26.960 --> 0:08:29.280 it is that he started twenty twenty nine a doctor, 0:08:29.400 --> 0:08:30.080 you know, need. 0:08:29.960 --> 0:08:32.520 A spine or whatever. He's still not even in the spine. 0:08:32.920 --> 0:08:34.520 And so I was fit. And that's why I look 0:08:34.559 --> 0:08:36.240 at second Shop guys like that. 0:08:36.400 --> 0:08:38.040 They don't be training and you're gonna be when this 0:08:38.400 --> 0:08:41.160 until he figures now we can come back, because he's 0:08:41.160 --> 0:08:43.320 exactly good. In fact, he's twenty two, all the big 0:08:43.360 --> 0:08:46.360 to the front of us always probably already find the. 0:08:47.920 --> 0:08:52.840 Follow sorry the fact he's twenty still for that too, 0:08:53.320 --> 0:08:53.960 So that's great. 0:08:54.400 --> 0:08:57.000 But here's the thing, Jamal, and I tell you this 0:08:57.120 --> 0:08:59.480 all the time and we talk about it. They'll tolerant 0:08:59.600 --> 0:09:02.400 until they can replace you once they got a deal 0:09:03.240 --> 0:09:04.360 that says, you know what we. 0:09:04.400 --> 0:09:06.760 Can win right now. I like Kyrie and Ad in 0:09:06.840 --> 0:09:07.520 the pick and roll. 0:09:08.040 --> 0:09:10.679 AD has never really had a guy this dynamic in 0:09:10.760 --> 0:09:13.599 the pick and roll Rondo, and you remember when he 0:09:13.679 --> 0:09:15.880 had Rondo in New Orleans, the numbers that Ad put 0:09:15.960 --> 0:09:19.160 up where Kyrie is a very simile guard point guard 0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:21.480 in the pick and roll, but for them to trail 0:09:21.520 --> 0:09:24.840 a twenty five year old that's five times first Team 0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:25.520 All NBA. 0:09:25.840 --> 0:09:27.640 It tells me everything I need to know. I don't 0:09:27.640 --> 0:09:29.319 need to hear nothing else. They can say this, so 0:09:29.400 --> 0:09:29.959 they can say that. 0:09:30.440 --> 0:09:32.839 But you know it had to be bad, Jamar, because 0:09:32.920 --> 0:09:35.719 everything that you said is absolutely true, because you say, 0:09:35.800 --> 0:09:39.400 you know what, his production is better than his problems, 0:09:39.640 --> 0:09:41.000 but they say, no, hell, it ain't. 0:09:41.280 --> 0:09:44.640 His problems supersede his production. 0:09:46.920 --> 0:09:48.520 I have a question. You know, both of you could 0:09:48.520 --> 0:09:50.880 probably answer it better than I can. Obviously, I don't 0:09:50.920 --> 0:09:56.240 really understand how or the intricacy on why he's not 0:09:56.480 --> 0:09:58.640 edgible for the five year through forty five super he 0:09:58.679 --> 0:10:02.200 got traded just so simply because he got treated us 0:10:02.200 --> 0:10:04.280 in the contract. Letting you know, once you get traded 0:10:04.320 --> 0:10:05.760 somewhere else you longer. 0:10:06.040 --> 0:10:07.959 You only get a four year dollars because he was 0:10:08.320 --> 0:10:10.520 almost like a bird, almost a bird situation. 0:10:10.840 --> 0:10:12.800 That was the team that drafted him. He had been 0:10:12.880 --> 0:10:15.079 this many times the first team All the NBA player. 0:10:15.360 --> 0:10:20.200 So therefore a lad Jason Tatum, a JB so guys 0:10:20.240 --> 0:10:22.199 that have been there for particularly what if it what 0:10:22.320 --> 0:10:25.679 if it like five like what five six years are Jamal, 0:10:27.640 --> 0:10:29.360 and then you're a first team All nb you have 0:10:29.440 --> 0:10:30.840 to be a first team you have to be one 0:10:30.880 --> 0:10:33.400 of the All NBA selections. Uh. 0:10:35.520 --> 0:10:38.840 Yes, So he's done that. So he was eligible five 0:10:38.920 --> 0:10:40.080 years three forty five. 0:10:40.280 --> 0:10:42.480 So think about that, he would have been eligible to 0:10:42.520 --> 0:10:45.040 get another contract that was probably gonna be north of 0:10:45.120 --> 0:10:47.440 four hundred million at the age of thirty. 0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:50.840 I think he answered right there. 0:10:51.240 --> 0:10:53.240 I think that was aha on. I think that's gonna 0:10:53.240 --> 0:10:53.360 be it. 0:10:53.679 --> 0:10:55.720 I think they were more still if they gave him 0:10:55.760 --> 0:10:57.840 that money and then they couldn't do that to water 0:10:57.840 --> 0:10:58.440 them at that point. 0:10:58.679 --> 0:11:00.160 He runs an organization. 0:11:00.120 --> 0:11:02.920 Totally versus right now, like you know what, let's call 0:11:03.000 --> 0:11:05.559 lost since we've seen where it's boring, and I think 0:11:05.640 --> 0:11:06.480 that might be for all of. 0:11:06.480 --> 0:11:08.840 Them, and they've because here's the thing, Jamal. 0:11:09.600 --> 0:11:13.560 They believe that a lot of these injuries, the knickknack injury, 0:11:13.720 --> 0:11:16.280 is because of his condition. It's because of its training, 0:11:16.640 --> 0:11:19.040 is because of his diet, It's because of a lot 0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:20.080 of things behind the scenes. 0:11:20.280 --> 0:11:22.679 We say this with Joel Embiid, we say this with 0:11:22.840 --> 0:11:23.800 Zaion Williamson. 0:11:24.080 --> 0:11:27.319 Not to say injuries don't happen, but I believe the 0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:31.280 Mavericks believed a lot of these injuries are self induced. 0:11:31.600 --> 0:11:33.960 You're not taking care of your body. It's being reported 0:11:34.040 --> 0:11:36.520 at one pointy way two seventy two sixty five. Whatever 0:11:36.600 --> 0:11:38.880 the case may be. But Jamal, you know this. 0:11:39.000 --> 0:11:39.719 You played this game. 0:11:39.800 --> 0:11:42.400 Damn near two that you played it two decades. When 0:11:42.480 --> 0:11:44.920 somebody moves a player like this, we've never seen it. 0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:48.640 That'll been like they've moved Magic Johnson in his prime, 0:11:49.120 --> 0:11:53.760 been moving Larry Bird, Michael Jorge ended their pride twenty 0:11:53.880 --> 0:11:59.199 five year old. Don't get moved unless the behavior is 0:11:59.280 --> 0:12:01.719 so egregious, they say, we just can't control it. 0:12:03.440 --> 0:12:04.160 We see what. 0:12:04.400 --> 0:12:08.400 Okay, Ma, your eyes and your ears are still even 0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:10.280 if you're not playing, your eyes and ears are still 0:12:11.280 --> 0:12:13.800 with the NBA. Do you know have you heard anything 0:12:14.160 --> 0:12:17.480 what the issue might be where this where it came 0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:19.080 to a head where they just had to get. 0:12:19.040 --> 0:12:19.520 Rid of them. 0:12:20.120 --> 0:12:22.760 I mean, let's just let's just take a step back 0:12:22.800 --> 0:12:25.920 and think about when they want the phone, right, Lucas 0:12:26.160 --> 0:12:28.480 had a celebrations being Mike Thumberg, I got so quick, 0:12:28.880 --> 0:12:31.600 So you can't speculate that they having stepped behind them 0:12:31.600 --> 0:12:34.800 seeing that was excited. You know what, he's not changing 0:12:35.040 --> 0:12:36.920 what we want to be and if we get in 0:12:36.960 --> 0:12:40.000 this contract and maybe worse at this point. So sometimes 0:12:40.040 --> 0:12:41.600 the best one to see if funks is not. Look, 0:12:42.280 --> 0:12:44.200 look they're gonna be on their best behavior. So sometimes 0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:46.280 you guys say, let me move with that. Let me 0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:48.480 see if you got a check. Now listen with anybody right, 0:12:48.640 --> 0:12:51.280 let me see if they are begelig with the potestual room. 0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:54.240 You watching that, this is makes you watching the table man. 0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:56.959 But going back to having had sent classic just go 0:12:57.080 --> 0:13:00.839 back and figure little bit Nico Harrison's quote's back. Rob 0:13:01.000 --> 0:13:02.679 Lincoln told them they so you know, they had a 0:13:02.800 --> 0:13:05.880 friendship in relationship and off tack with politicsation they have 0:13:06.040 --> 0:13:08.240 So that's why something like we can so and not 0:13:08.360 --> 0:13:08.760 get out. 0:13:09.720 --> 0:13:13.120 But but here's the thing, this is what we know. 0:13:14.559 --> 0:13:17.440 Young athletes that hurt become old athletes to get hurt. 0:13:17.720 --> 0:13:19.480 And the worst thing you can have is an old 0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:21.840 guy that's got you owned two hundred million, you owned 0:13:21.840 --> 0:13:24.079 three hundred million. Because I just read a thing the 0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:26.280 other day when it said Jolan beiid he's made one 0:13:26.360 --> 0:13:29.240 hundred and twenty five million for the games that he's missed. 0:13:30.840 --> 0:13:32.480 You want that on Luca, You want that, you want 0:13:32.559 --> 0:13:35.760 Lucas salary three hundred and forty five million, and here 0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:39.640 he is. And they believe that those injuries, a lot 0:13:39.720 --> 0:13:42.959 of those have been exacerbated by his condition. And you 0:13:43.040 --> 0:13:45.040 remember he was nursing the knee injury last year and 0:13:46.040 --> 0:13:48.839 in the game in the championship game, excuse me, and 0:13:48.880 --> 0:13:51.320 the NBA Finals, and leading up to the finals, we're like, well, 0:13:51.360 --> 0:13:52.679 how long can he go on that? 0:13:52.800 --> 0:13:53.000 Look? 0:13:53.200 --> 0:13:56.240 So now you hear culture, you hear you see a 0:13:56.280 --> 0:13:58.880 guy that has no interest in playing any level of defense, 0:13:59.200 --> 0:13:59.719 not at all. 0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:05.560 Uh oh lit some some. 0:14:05.760 --> 0:14:08.200 Go some got to give away. You know, everybody's gonna 0:14:08.240 --> 0:14:10.280 have flaws when you think about NBA players, hell, even 0:14:10.440 --> 0:14:13.640 NFL players. Everybody has their strengths. His strengths and his 0:14:13.760 --> 0:14:15.880 identity is on the offensive side of the ball, so 0:14:16.040 --> 0:14:18.080 you know what, you don't get from the defensive side 0:14:18.080 --> 0:14:21.320 of the end. But he's so great a which done offensively? 0:14:22.040 --> 0:14:24.320 Head on you you got you got, you got to 0:14:24.400 --> 0:14:24.680 take that. 0:14:25.000 --> 0:14:26.120 So how do you like this? 0:14:27.160 --> 0:14:30.920 You are selective posts anybody probably, I just don't. 0:14:31.160 --> 0:14:31.960 But here's the thing. 0:14:32.840 --> 0:14:35.480 Lebron is at the age he can't play consistent defense. 0:14:35.800 --> 0:14:39.440 Luca doesn't play any defense. You traded your two bless defenders, 0:14:39.920 --> 0:14:43.160 your wing defenders, Max Christy on ball, uh and ad 0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:46.240 your help defend it on ball, can defend one through five, 0:14:46.400 --> 0:14:48.760 is tremendous in the picker roll. He's great at weak 0:14:48.880 --> 0:14:51.320 side of help. Look, you got guys that can score, 0:14:51.720 --> 0:14:56.640 but who can they stop? Look, I understand, I understand. 0:14:56.640 --> 0:14:59.080 This is what the Lakers and I and I've studied 0:14:59.080 --> 0:15:00.800 the Lakers, and I know the Bakers. This is what 0:15:00.920 --> 0:15:04.440 the Lakers do. They got Willed because they love superstars 0:15:04.560 --> 0:15:05.040 in LAA. 0:15:05.120 --> 0:15:05.760 You gotta have them. 0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:08.840 You cannot get over it. You cannot survive at the 0:15:08.960 --> 0:15:12.480 Lakers without superstars. So they go get they go get Willed, 0:15:12.960 --> 0:15:15.240 and then they follow that over Kareem and they go 0:15:15.360 --> 0:15:18.280 get shot, and they go get Lebron and now they 0:15:18.360 --> 0:15:21.200 go get and they go get Luca. You gotta have 0:15:21.480 --> 0:15:23.600 that if you're gonna be la if you're gonna be 0:15:23.640 --> 0:15:26.120 the Lakers. You look at the Dodgers. That's what they do. 0:15:26.320 --> 0:15:29.400 You see show, Hey, you see Mookie. That's what they 0:15:29.600 --> 0:15:32.960 do in order for you to survive out here. That's 0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:34.960 why they win. And traded for Matthew Stafford. Don't, Joe, 0:15:35.760 --> 0:15:38.320 you gotta have a star. You gotta have stars, Aaron Donald, 0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:41.200 You gotta have stars to survive out here if you 0:15:41.280 --> 0:15:43.760 want to win, because there's too much going on in La. 0:15:44.080 --> 0:15:47.240 We got beaches, we got sam we got rude talks. 0:15:47.480 --> 0:15:50.760 You got so much going on, and if you don't win, 0:15:51.560 --> 0:15:53.960 they not coming to see you. But I'm telling you, 0:15:55.000 --> 0:15:58.600 I don't care. See that's the notion that people make, Jamal, 0:15:58.680 --> 0:16:01.160 and you know this. A lot of time, people say, well, 0:16:01.160 --> 0:16:03.640 as long as I'm doing my job, you shouldn't care 0:16:03.640 --> 0:16:05.360 about No, no, no, no, no. It doesn't work like that, 0:16:05.960 --> 0:16:09.280 because see, your job is being a professional. That's your job. 0:16:09.680 --> 0:16:12.720 How you conduct yourself while you're doing your job, that's 0:16:12.800 --> 0:16:13.600 called being a pro. 0:16:14.440 --> 0:16:16.120 And say, we don't like the pro. 0:16:16.760 --> 0:16:19.800 We love the professional because he's given us twenty nine, 0:16:19.920 --> 0:16:23.520 thirty two, thirty four, ninety nine. We know what he 0:16:23.600 --> 0:16:28.480 can do, but that pro eventually will catch up with us. 0:16:28.960 --> 0:16:33.160 His behavior and the way he does things that say, nah, 0:16:33.600 --> 0:16:35.360 we got to nip this in the bug. We got 0:16:35.440 --> 0:16:38.040 the break he's played at twenty five because he's gonna 0:16:38.040 --> 0:16:38.560 become unk. 0:16:38.920 --> 0:16:39.040 Bro. 0:16:39.240 --> 0:16:41.640 We let him get two years into sixty and seventy 0:16:41.680 --> 0:16:44.680 million dollar contract. Hey, that joking back coming Hey. He 0:16:44.800 --> 0:16:48.040 might come into the game drinking a beer. He might 0:16:48.120 --> 0:16:50.880 come to the hey smoking on hookah. Because we know 0:16:51.080 --> 0:16:58.520 Luca loving Huka, not Jbaul. He loveth hookah. And when 0:16:58.560 --> 0:17:02.200 you sit back and look at it, Rick Carlyle left, 0:17:02.680 --> 0:17:07.080 he refused the contract extension he had Luca at twenty 0:17:07.160 --> 0:17:10.880 two twenty three. What can't you know would walk away 0:17:10.920 --> 0:17:14.360 from Lebron? Walk away from a hit of Magic Johnson, 0:17:14.800 --> 0:17:17.800 Larry Bird. That's what lucas a comparison is. I'm not 0:17:17.840 --> 0:17:20.320 saying he's not won a championship, he hadn't won an MVP, 0:17:20.720 --> 0:17:24.200 but that's what he is in today's turns. Ain't no 0:17:24.359 --> 0:17:27.720 coach walking away from that. Coaches might get fired, but 0:17:27.880 --> 0:17:30.080 coaches because they know how hard it is to get 0:17:30.119 --> 0:17:32.720 one of those guys. Those guys you don't those guys 0:17:32.800 --> 0:17:35.120 like Luca, they don't come out in the draft every year. 0:17:35.280 --> 0:17:36.840 Are Lebron a magic a Bird? 0:17:37.119 --> 0:17:39.560 They don't come So if I get one, I gonna 0:17:39.600 --> 0:17:41.440 keep this joke as long as I can, as long 0:17:41.480 --> 0:17:43.000 as they'll have me our state. 0:17:44.800 --> 0:17:47.880 Yeah, and that's why it's like we have never ever 0:17:48.000 --> 0:17:50.520 seen this, and it's so open ended, and it was 0:17:50.600 --> 0:17:53.119 so shocking all we can doing speculator Rember Wish snucking 0:17:53.200 --> 0:17:55.119 down nobody. But you gotta figure it out, right, like 0:17:55.200 --> 0:17:57.800 that's your job. But figure it out and people or 0:17:57.840 --> 0:17:59.800 getting a little bit of insight. And while this happened, 0:18:00.080 --> 0:18:01.920 who knows if it's you know, how they thought this 0:18:02.000 --> 0:18:04.520 body will be like all that stuff played the part. 0:18:05.160 --> 0:18:07.720 What's so happened is where he's going and where Anthony 0:18:07.760 --> 0:18:11.240 Batis is going and how opposed quote changing were gonna 0:18:11.240 --> 0:18:13.880 see in the next year or two, how things lined 0:18:13.960 --> 0:18:15.359 up and we have on answer the future. 0:18:16.040 --> 0:18:19.280 I also think I think now he just lost one 0:18:19.359 --> 0:18:22.160 hundred and seventeen million dollars on show basically one year. 0:18:22.920 --> 0:18:24.639 It cost him one hundred and seven it cost him 0:18:24.640 --> 0:18:25.880 one hundred and seventeen million. 0:18:26.200 --> 0:18:28.320 Now, if that don't get your attention, it should have 0:18:28.440 --> 0:18:31.680 your undivided attention. Now, I don't know where y'all who 0:18:31.800 --> 0:18:34.200 makes one hundred and seventeen million dollars a year. Maybe 0:18:34.280 --> 0:18:39.720 some CEOs, maybe a Christiano Ronaldo, maybe in Bape. 0:18:41.560 --> 0:18:42.360 Maybe something of them. 0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:43.920 But the ain't a whole ain't a whole lot of 0:18:43.920 --> 0:18:45.960 players making see a one hundred and seventeen million in 0:18:46.040 --> 0:18:51.240 salary of jamorrow, anybody, I'm gonna attack you. Now you 0:18:51.320 --> 0:18:53.480 got just thinking about you could have been. You could 0:18:53.520 --> 0:18:57.120 have been and that in Texas no state income tax, 0:18:58.119 --> 0:19:01.240 it's thirteen and a half percent. In Californi you I 0:19:01.240 --> 0:19:04.040 don't know if you notice anything. So forty million, they 0:19:04.160 --> 0:19:06.800 gonna take thirteen and a half percent. 0:19:06.920 --> 0:19:07.360
