Speaker 2: sitting by to take your phone calls, we'll play fill
Speaker 2: in the blank, We'll give you our best and worst
Speaker 2: of the weekend, all of that forthcoming. But when was
Speaker 2: the last time you were truly shocked? Sports shocked? This
Speaker 2: is one of those. It was midnight Eastern and getting
Speaker 2: messages on my phone that was like, OMG, question mark
Speaker 2: exclamation point? What the f question mark exclamation point? And
Speaker 2: I don't know what's happened. So all of a sudden,
Speaker 2: you go, I gotta contact somebody. So I sent a
Speaker 2: message to my wife. I said, is everything okay? And
Speaker 2: she said, yeah, did you hear about the Luka Doncik?
Speaker 2: Is that how you pronounce his name? I go, you
Speaker 2: know it before I know it? And she said, yes,
Speaker 2: everybody on the internet is talking about this. Is that
Speaker 2: how you pronounce his name? I said, yes, it is
Speaker 2: Luka Doncik traded to the Lakers. And you start to
Speaker 2: think about all the insiders. People get paid millions and
Speaker 2: millions of dollars to be the insider. Give us a
Speaker 2: heads up there, and then all of a sudden, nobody
Speaker 2: was an insider. Nobody had any information on this. Even
Speaker 2: the players involved in the deal had no idea that
Speaker 2: this was going on. Now I understand the mab side
Speaker 2: of this with Luca that you're not going to tell
Speaker 2: him if you're getting ready to part ways with him,
Speaker 2: you're not going to say anything to him. The Lakers
Speaker 2: with Lebron, Lebron friends with Ad, brought Ad in from
Speaker 2: New Orleans. They want a title together. They're buds. Then
Speaker 2: there was a report there at odds with one another.
Speaker 2: Maybe Lebron doesn't like that Ad is not always available.
Speaker 2: Ad last year played in seventy six games. Now he
Speaker 2: was injured or is injured on abdominal strain or something.
Speaker 2: But the fact that you get a guy who does
Speaker 2: have good numbers when he's played, but you're going to
Speaker 2: get Luka Dancik in his prime. And that's where you go.
Speaker 2: Why first question? And I still say that why Brian
Speaker 2: winhors to the Mothership? Will Joe is coming up top
Speaker 2: of next hour. But the Mavericks went to the NBA
Speaker 2: Finals last year. It's not like they flamed out in
Speaker 2: the first round. It's not where you go, man. They
Speaker 2: got to make some big decisions here, They got to
Speaker 2: make some changes here. They went to the NBA Finals
Speaker 2: last year, and you get rid of Luca, who's twenty
Speaker 2: five and you get Anthony Davis in return because you
Speaker 2: say defense wins championships. And then you were talking about
Speaker 2: your culture, the MAVs culture, that these players they got
Speaker 2: fit in better than Luca, And it goes back to
Speaker 2: why what do the MAVs know that we don't know yet?
Speaker 2: And was it just Luca was not in shape? You
Speaker 2: don't want to give him a max deal where he's
Speaker 2: going to be making over seventy million dollars a year,
Speaker 2: but you know it's one of those one you're watch
Speaker 2: him play and you go, gosh, if he ever gets
Speaker 2: in shape, you know he'll average forty a game. I mean,
Speaker 2: he's still good to averaging thirty a game, and you know,
Speaker 2: you look at his weight.
Speaker 1: That's a big deal.
Speaker 2: I mean, just like Zion Williamson that that has become
Speaker 2: a big issue. I wouldn't be surprised if Zion is
Speaker 2: moved at some point in his career. But here's Luca,
Speaker 2: arguably one of the top five players, certainly one of
Speaker 2: the top ten players, and you get him at twenty
Speaker 2: five Anthony Davis. You're not going to build around him.
Speaker 2: And it's weird that it feels like Sacramento got more
Speaker 2: for Daron Fox than the Mavericks got for you know,
Speaker 2: the trade with Luka Doncik Darren Fox going to San Antonio,
Speaker 2: which I think is great, love it thought it was wonderful,
Speaker 2: But as far as the Lakers, it was one of
Speaker 2: those where and you start to look at sports surprises.
Speaker 2: You know, when Kobe passed away, we didn't want to
Speaker 2: believe it. It's like no, no, you know it's a
Speaker 2: tragedy and you're like, no, that that couldn't possibly have happened,
Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden you realize that it
Speaker 2: did happen. I was doing Sports Center when Magic announced
Speaker 2: that he had HIV and then he was going to
Speaker 2: have to retire.
Speaker 1: Like that is sports shocked this a.
Speaker 2: And if you're looking at things that probably would shock you,
Speaker 2: I'll go back to when lu Al Sindor was traded
Speaker 2: from the Bucks to the Lakers, and I remember, guys,
Speaker 2: you just traded the best player in the game, and
Speaker 2: you got Junior Bridgeman and you got Dave Myers and
Speaker 2: I think Elmore Smith was in. You know, it wasn't
Speaker 2: a great list of players, even when Wilt Chamberlain was traded.
Speaker 2: You know, you don't get as much as you think
Speaker 2: and return Oscar Robertson traded to the Bucks.
Speaker 1: You got, uh, two marginal players out of that. But
Speaker 1: I would have thought draft picks.
Speaker 2: I would have thought you could have gotten a whole
Speaker 2: lot more from a lot of other people.
Speaker 1: And it's like you didn't let everybody know.
Speaker 2: It's almost like you're single and then all of a sudden,
Speaker 2: you're gonna marry the first guy that you meet, like
Speaker 2: I got I gotta get spread this. Maybe there's other
Speaker 2: options out there. That was what was surprising. And they
Speaker 2: kept it quiet, which I thought was fascinated in today's
Speaker 2: world where everybody in Hollywood, somebody's telling somebody something. But
Speaker 2: they kept it quiet.
Speaker 1: And now you have.
Speaker 2: The Dallas Bavericks with Anthony Davis. As they move forward,
Speaker 2: and I hope they play great defense. Somebody better tell
Speaker 2: Kyrie Irving he's got to play defense because defense wins championships.
Speaker 2: But Luca, look, I don't like Luca going to the
Speaker 2: Lakers because you got two ball dominant guys. You know,
Speaker 2: Lebron wants to have the ball and so does Luca. Okay,
Speaker 2: don't like it. I mean I love it from the
Speaker 2: standpoint of you got to watch it, but I don't
Speaker 2: know if it's one of those where you go, all right,
Speaker 2: I see what they're doing. Now, this is long term.
Speaker 2: This is a long play. You know, he's twenty five.
Speaker 2: But as far as Lebron is Lebron going to stay longer?
Speaker 1: Now? Does he want to get traded?
Speaker 2: And I think those are questions that we'll ask, you know,
Speaker 2: Wendy when he joins this next hour. Yes, Marvin, but.
Speaker 3: Lebron's won championship with ball dominant guys before, like Dwayne
Speaker 3: Wade and Kyrie Irving.
Speaker 4: So if it worked there, it might work here.
Speaker 1: Just one last shot man.
Speaker 3: So Lebron was good at playing a lot of your turn,
Speaker 3: My Turn with d Wade and Kyrie, So maybe this
Speaker 3: might be the plan for the Lakers.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, Luca's gonna want the ball now, Luca's
Speaker 2: gonna want to be out on, you know, for vengeance.
Speaker 5: Here.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna show everybody, you know, you see that's what happens,
Speaker 2: you get traded.
Speaker 1: Like he was shocked.
Speaker 2: He was like, wall, I didn't know anything about this.
Speaker 2: Jason Kidd didn't know, nobody knew anything about this.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 7: See, yeah, it does seem like Lebron is a guy
Speaker 7: who doesn't mind not having it all on his shoulders, right,
Speaker 7: and so he wants the ball, maybe wants it a
Speaker 7: little less these days. I'm like, ah, man, this is
Speaker 7: your Like Marvin said, now this is your turn, and
Speaker 7: then I'll I'll get the next one.
Speaker 2: And I worry about Bronni too, just to make sure
Speaker 2: that he's going to get his touches as well as
Speaker 2: most people are.
Speaker 8: Yes, Paul, I have this policy for the past twenty
Speaker 8: or thirty years. If the Lakers are calling me or
Speaker 8: talking to me about a trade, don't do it. Pow
Speaker 8: Gasol Kobe Bryant when they during the draft, Uh Shaquille O'Neill.
Speaker 8: In his prime, Leuel Cindar looking Leuis sinder was twenty six,
Speaker 8: he had won two of the previous three MVPs and
Speaker 8: Milwaukee goes, let's get rid of this guy. It's hard
Speaker 8: to make sense of that at the time, and this
Speaker 8: one's just as bad.
Speaker 1: Well.
Speaker 2: Luel Sindor wanted out of Milwaukee, wanted to go to
Speaker 2: Los Angeles. He had played his college ball out there,
Speaker 2: and I think that he wanted out of that situation.
Speaker 2: But you know, the difference is with the Lakers. Usually
Speaker 2: Jerry West was on the other end. If Jerry West calls,
Speaker 2: then you don't you don't pick up because you know, somehow,
Speaker 2: someway this isn't going to work out. But Rob Polinka
Speaker 2: made the move, pulled the trigger on this, and I good,
Speaker 2: you know, credit to the Lakers. I didn't think they
Speaker 2: were going anywhere with Anthony Davis. But at least you've
Speaker 2: I don't know, revitalized your fan base and maybe you
Speaker 2: now to look at the future and maybe you go, Okay,
Speaker 2: we have somebody we can build on who's not forty
Speaker 2: years of age.
Speaker 1: Yes, you know.
Speaker 7: And all of the attention is going to the Lakers
Speaker 7: and the MAVs obviously, But then when you look at
Speaker 7: the other side of some of these trades, it's like,
Speaker 7: what are the bulls doing?
Speaker 1: Well, what have the Bulls been doing for the last
Speaker 1: twenty years.
Speaker 7: They're like a team that's being stripped down for parts
Speaker 7: because like some gigantic company bought them and all like
Speaker 7: a just sell off all the good stuff and then
Speaker 7: well it's crazy.
Speaker 2: It's like when animals cross a river and you know,
Speaker 2: some make it and something like the bulls crossing the
Speaker 2: river and then it's like, oh, we lost one, we
Speaker 2: lost another one, and they finally traded zach Lavine. He's
Speaker 2: probably been rumored to have been traded one hundred times,
Speaker 2: it feels like in the last couple of years. So
Speaker 2: he goes to Sacramento and of course you reunite him
Speaker 2: with Tomorro Rosen and that's going to be magic there.
Speaker 3: Yes, Marvin zach Lavine is Bradley beal light Wow, a
Speaker 3: lot of points, but it doesn't lead to wins, so.
Speaker 1: That's not a compliment.
Speaker 8: No, no, no, okay, yeah, both players, but no, yeah,
Speaker 8: all right, I've been wanting to ask you this for
Speaker 8: about a day and a half. If you're the Lakers,
Speaker 8: I'd like to know how much time after the initial
Speaker 8: call to the trade was made, and how much due
Speaker 8: diligence did you get, because whenever someone offers you something
Speaker 8: too good to be true, I got to know why
Speaker 8: this house is six hundred thousand should be a million.
Speaker 9: Oh it's got mold. That's what it feels like.
Speaker 8: The Lakers are getting something that the Mavericks really didn't want.
Speaker 9: Why how do you ask that? How do you find
Speaker 9: out why they don't want Luke anymore?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I think that's what we're waiting for.
Speaker 2: I think everybody was like, and this is one of
Speaker 2: those where NBA players in games they're passing the phone
Speaker 2: around on the bench because nobody believes it's real.
Speaker 1: It's like, you got to be kidding me. Wait, you
Speaker 1: see this, you see this? You see this, you see this?
Speaker 7: Yes, s'd And they can't even be like, well, you
Speaker 7: know what. The chance to get Anthony Davis is just
Speaker 7: too good to pass up. And they're like, what do
Speaker 7: you want him for?
Speaker 10: Yes, Todd, is there standard physically after all trades or
Speaker 10: they have to do that before they becomes efficient.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and both players are injured. I didn't think you
Speaker 2: could trade injured players. If David Stern was still the commissioner,
Speaker 2: I would love to have heard his reaction, but he
Speaker 2: have vetoed this like you did, Chris Paul to the Lakers.
Speaker 7: I see, oh, okay, you guys just want to move
Speaker 7: stars wherever.
Speaker 2: Okay, And then it goes back to you know, loyalty, franchise, loyalty.
Speaker 2: Luca didn't want to leave. You know, we always talk
Speaker 2: about the players in the NBA. Oh, they're holding up
Speaker 2: these franchises. You know, they're the ones that are dictating
Speaker 2: what goes on.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: By all accounts, neither of these players knew what was
Speaker 2: going on. Yes, Marv, and I think.
Speaker 3: We all have to let the public know Mark Cuban
Speaker 3: is not the majority owner of the Dallas Mavericks anymore,
Speaker 3: because I got about three text messages.
Speaker 4: What is Mark Cuban doing? He's just sitting there. He
Speaker 4: didn't do this.
Speaker 1: I know Fritzy.
Speaker 2: We were at dinner last night and I said to Fritzy,
Speaker 2: reach out to Cuban. So he said, uh, he can't.
Speaker 6: I can't.
Speaker 2: I thought, that's sorry, and I said, wait a minute,
Speaker 2: why can't he He didn't make the move, but he
Speaker 2: still owns like twenty seven percent of the mavericke He's
Speaker 2: very busy.
Speaker 4: Shark Tang has got a lot of stuff dealing.
Speaker 2: But this is where Paula goes, Yeah, telling we can
Speaker 2: tape it right now. We'll go like, we'll tape it
Speaker 2: whatever time you want.
Speaker 11: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I love Paul's like, guess is out of the country.
Speaker 4: You can't do it. They don't. I zoomed it off the
Speaker 4: phones out of the country.
Speaker 8: Yeah, paul, I wonder if Mark Cuban's I can't was
Speaker 8: I can't like he loved Luca and he made his
Speaker 8: declarations years ago and always loved him.
Speaker 2: Well, you know, it's one of those guys where you
Speaker 2: paired him with Kyrie Irving, they go to the NBA Finals,
Speaker 2: you would think, Okay, I mean it's not a great team,
Speaker 2: but still you went to the NBA Finals last year
Speaker 2: and then you decide to part ways.
Speaker 1: But I don't.
Speaker 2: Maybe they just looked at this and said, he's where
Speaker 2: he is now at twenty five, how much better is
Speaker 2: he going to get? How much does he care? And
Speaker 2: then they talk. You know, all these teams, en franchises
Speaker 2: have culture. You know, it's it's Patriots culture, and it's
Speaker 2: heat culture, and it's I don't even know what that means.
Speaker 2: All I know is Anthony Davis already has it and
Speaker 2: he hasn't even put on the uniform yet, which is
Speaker 2: pretty amazing. You buy it in the gift shop when
Speaker 2: you you know, land in Dallas Fort Worth, Yeah, Seeton.
Speaker 7: There's a quote from Mark Cuban all over the internet
Speaker 7: now that as far as I can could tell, is real.
Speaker 7: But Mark Cuban said, if I had to choose between
Speaker 7: my wife and keeping Luca on the MAVs catch me
Speaker 7: at my lawyer's office prepping for a divorce.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's awesome.
Speaker 9: You know, she could probably use that in future negotiations.
Speaker 9: I'm a lawyer.
Speaker 2: Wouldn't have been funny if the Lakers get Luca Mark
Speaker 2: Cuban's wife. Oh, they get Maxie Kleeber and Marketing Morris,
Speaker 2: the first wife you know, traded and.
Speaker 1: The deal makes sense.
Speaker 8: Yeah to mar and I were joking at the end
Speaker 8: of the day when they introduced you know, they always
Speaker 8: introduced the new player they trade for, and they hold
Speaker 8: up the jersey that he's gonna wear. When Luca gets
Speaker 8: introduced in LA, when they introduced Anthony Davis and Dallas,
Speaker 8: do they hold up a sweater and pants?
Speaker 9: Wow, sang Street clothes not really fair. He's playing a
Speaker 9: lot lately. I retract that statement.
Speaker 6: Retracted.
Speaker 1: Damn, yeah, much too soon.
Speaker 9: Street. He's playing well, we returned he is.
Speaker 1: He is, of course, coming back from another injury.
Speaker 3: Yes, marsh I saw Luca get off the plane miraculously.
Speaker 3: He's twenty five pounds down now. He looks great, shreadfast. Oh,
Speaker 3: he looked great. He looked like James Harden when he
Speaker 3: got traded. Because James Harden was over here looking like
Speaker 3: Professor Klamb at one point.
Speaker 2: Well, it's like when your significant other that decides to
Speaker 2: divorce you and then you get you back to your
Speaker 2: playing weight, like you all of a sudden go all right,
Speaker 2: I'm out there on the mark.
Speaker 8: But in thirty six hours and he gets him spanks,
Speaker 8: he's going to Ozempicville.
Speaker 1: Oh, going to Hollywood.
Speaker 9: Part of his contract.
Speaker 2: Yes, they may have hooked him up on the plane
Speaker 2: where he's Can I get an iva of that ozempic
Speaker 2: here down twenty five? By the way, six ers weren't
Speaker 2: the Celtics down by twenty seven last night and came back.
Speaker 2: We were in a bar or restaurant. Every TV. There
Speaker 2: had to be fifteen TVs and that was the only
Speaker 2: thing on the Celtics and the seventy six ers every
Speaker 2: single TV.
Speaker 4: And it wasn't that bizarre.
Speaker 10: I know it's not a sports bar, but there were
Speaker 10: like eighteen to twenty tev's.
Speaker 4: Everyone had the Celtic sixer game on its New Orleans.
Speaker 10: It's not like we were in the outskirts of Philly
Speaker 10: or bostsk.
Speaker 1: All I know is you were on fire last night.
Speaker 4: I was a hyper I don't know why exactly there
Speaker 4: was a rest.
Speaker 9: There's a point in dinner where I wish I was
Speaker 9: on fire.
Speaker 2: Last night I made Todd drink a beer just to
Speaker 2: see if it would, you know, slow him down, shut
Speaker 2: him up.
Speaker 1: It didn't.
Speaker 2: I drank like half of that both. Oh I know, Oh,
Speaker 2: I know. Poll question seton. We gotten an obvious one
Speaker 2: for the first hour.
Speaker 7: Well, we have some that are trade related. We have
Speaker 7: one off of stapped dinners that Todd Suld submitted.
Speaker 1: You know what, we'll wait too.
Speaker 2: After the break, we'll go over our poll questions for
Speaker 2: the first hour, best and worst of the weekend. Operator
Speaker 2: Tyler sitting by, he'll take your phone calls. Had a
Speaker 2: interesting situation last night as I looked out of my window,
Speaker 2: my bedroom window at the hotel, and saw five guys
Speaker 2: in their underwear in the swimming pool, and I said,
Speaker 2: that guy looks like one of my employees. In fact,
Speaker 2: they're all my employees in the pool in their underwear,
Speaker 2: led by Dylan, of course.
Speaker 1: So we'll take a break.

Speaker 2: have some great accessories for you guys to play pickleball.
Speaker 1: You will look like you know what you're doing. That's
Speaker 1: my goal, guaranteed. Yes time.
Speaker 4: What about the terminology. You said something the other day
Speaker 4: about the kitchen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you have to learn some.
Speaker 2: You're gonna learn it. You're going to learn some. You know,
Speaker 2: you got to serve underhand. You know, can't be in
Speaker 2: the kitchen, and you know it's something you're gonna need
Speaker 2: to know.
Speaker 1: You can't high paddle.
Speaker 9: That would that be called high paddling.

Speaker 7: We'll start with a I think kind of an easy one.
Speaker 7: Which team got most better this weekend? Lakers, MAVs are Spurs?
Speaker 7: Oh okay, I like that, all right? The to double
Speaker 7: D He's sent in two. Okay, The Luka Doncic Anthony
Speaker 7: Davis trade benefits the Lakers, the MAVs both teams neither.
Speaker 7: But then he sent in the one that was a
Speaker 7: little more controversial. Staff dinners are dot dot dot generally
Speaker 7: a fun time, okay, depending on where you're seated or mandatory.
Speaker 1: How would you answer your poll question?
Speaker 6: Tom?
Speaker 4: I would say generally a fun time.
Speaker 10: But I've worked on other shows and been with other
Speaker 10: staffs where every one of those three I could have
Speaker 10: picked at different points in my career.
Speaker 4: Yesterday was a fun time.
Speaker 10: But I've been in situations where I guess I got
Speaker 10: to go to this thing, Everyone's gonna show up, and
Speaker 10: it's gonna look like I don't.
Speaker 1: Want to hang out with these people.
Speaker 10: There's been other times where I'm like, this is cool,
Speaker 10: but I really wanted to sit next to that guy
Speaker 10: and he's at the other end of the table, and
Speaker 10: now they stuck me here, and that's not great.
Speaker 9: I know how that feels.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was right.
Speaker 2: Across from Paulie. Paulie was next to you, and I
Speaker 2: go of all the places, you know, the two siblings,
Speaker 2: like if you and your brother and you don't like
Speaker 2: each other, don't get along, and but you always sit next.
Speaker 1: To each other. You were there and you were shot
Speaker 1: out of a camp.
Speaker 6: I thought it.
Speaker 10: Went very well, except that I was a little too
Speaker 10: much of a chatterbox, and that was a kind of irritating.
Speaker 2: You kept saying, oh, what goes on upstairs? You can
Speaker 2: go upstairs. Nobody's telling us, wait and go upstairs. Hey,
Speaker 2: what if I get in that elevator? Where where's that tap?
Speaker 1: I was sitting.
Speaker 4: We were sitting right on top of this big like
Speaker 4: silver elevator. I was just very curious. And then there
Speaker 4: was some kind of staircase and there was interesting lights.
Speaker 10: I didn't know if it used to be like some
Speaker 10: kind of brothel or something like that, of different colors
Speaker 10: and things were gone in it.
Speaker 6: Why are we gonna go get just?
Speaker 4: It was it was just I don't know. I had
Speaker 4: a vibe to it.
Speaker 1: And then there was a birthday. Yeah, there was presentation.
Speaker 2: We had some video of that where Marvin, I think,
Speaker 2: did you tell somebody it was your birthday and it
Speaker 2: wasn't your birthday?
Speaker 8: No?
Speaker 3: A couple of brgs, Oh, they said it was somebody
Speaker 3: else's another brg's birthday.
Speaker 2: And there was some dancing going on.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So one of the brg's goes, Marvet, I've never seen
Speaker 3: you turn your head faster in my life.
Speaker 1: That woman was right behind you. She sure was.
Speaker 2: Yes, there were a couple of women right behind you.
Speaker 2: There were Yeah, birthday. Yeah, it was great.
Speaker 6: That's our birthday.
Speaker 3: Shout out next time when somebody says, oh, my wife Phyllis,
Speaker 3: she loves the show, it's her birthday.
Speaker 4: That's the song from now on.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Marvin goes, hey, do you think we could go back
Speaker 2: there today? And I say it's my birthday again. I said, sure,
Speaker 2: you can do that all right? Eight seven seven three
Speaker 2: DP show email address Dpadanpatrick dot com Twitter handle the
Speaker 2: TP Show. We'll get to your best and worst of
Speaker 2: the weekend coming up, let's settle on the poll question,
Speaker 2: which one do you want to go with? First hour seat?
Speaker 2: Before we bring into Ross Tuck.
Speaker 9: Yeah, we're actually gonna put up two of them.
Speaker 7: We're gonna put up Steph Dinners and we're gonna put
Speaker 7: up which team got most better this weekend?
Speaker 1: All right?
Speaker 2: Our next guest, you know him from his great football
Speaker 2: calls on CBS in Westwood One he played in the NFL,
Speaker 2: says he could have gotten into Princeton on his grades alone.
Speaker 2: Nobody's buying that. His head is bigger than some compact cars.
Speaker 2: You know him, you love him.
Speaker 1: He there's Ross Tucker.
Speaker 2: Let's go and have him, all right, No, No, closer
Speaker 2: to me, closer to me.
Speaker 1: Look at Ross Tunkers.
Speaker 6: Zero percent chance I would have gotten into printing without football.
Speaker 14: Zero.
Speaker 6: The Valley Toori in my high school my year did
Speaker 6: not get in the same year I got in. It
Speaker 6: was a little bit dicey.
Speaker 1: And they wanted to get into Princeton.
Speaker 6: Yeah. All I ever want to do is play football
Speaker 6: for Penn State.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 6: All they ever wanted to do was go to Princeville Harvard.
Speaker 6: And thankfully, by senior year he was a little bit
Speaker 6: more relaxed that I could joke, and I said, listen, Richard,
Speaker 6: while you were falling around studying, I was looking at
Speaker 6: wait trying to get into the best colleges.
Speaker 4: He went to.
Speaker 6: Columbia or Penn. He's a doctor. I'm sure he's doing great. Yeah,
Speaker 6: but but yeah, I guess you know, they only take
Speaker 6: so many people from EAT school, so I guess I
Speaker 6: kind of took a spot.
Speaker 2: Can you remember a sports shock in the NFL that's
Speaker 2: anywhere near what we got with the NBA.
Speaker 6: I remember being very I'm not saying it's near where
Speaker 6: the NBA is, but I remember Easter Sunday one year,
Speaker 6: the Eagles traded Donovan McNabb to the Redskins, and that
Speaker 6: was like wow, right, I mean, you know in division
Speaker 6: and Donovan had been the face of the Eagles franchise
Speaker 6: for a decade. That was one where I think, you know,
Speaker 6: I used to be working for a serious ExM. I
Speaker 6: think we had an emergency show and I think they
Speaker 6: called me like, can you do a show tonight Easter
Speaker 6: Sunday night to discuss that. I thought it was pretty
Speaker 6: crazy when the Patriots traded Bledsoe to the Bills. Although
Speaker 6: you kind of knew that was coming, not to this extent,
Speaker 6: not not like I will say this, I don't know
Speaker 6: that much about the NBA or that many guys, but
Speaker 6: the NBA. In the NBA, if you're not sure what's happening,
Speaker 6: when in doubt, the guy probably wanted out. I mean like,
Speaker 6: that's it seemed like all these guys, that's all they
Speaker 6: talk about in Philly now is Embid and you know,
Speaker 6: Jimmy Butler. It just seems like if you're not sure
Speaker 6: why a team was moving on from a guy, that
Speaker 6: guy probably wanted to anything about Luca. Maybe he loved Dallas.
Speaker 6: But that's just that's my two cents about the NBA.
Speaker 2: I thought about Andrew luck that that was oh yes,
Speaker 2: because it felt like that he finally got the Colts
Speaker 2: offensive line figured out that he was getting healthier, he
Speaker 2: was in his prime, and then all of a sudden,
Speaker 2: Chefty drops the bomb that he's retiring. And that was
Speaker 2: during preseason when he was at the game on the sidelines,
Speaker 2: and then the fans started booing him.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that really hurt my heart. I didn't like how
Speaker 6: any of that went down. You're right, because what guy
Speaker 6: retires in the middle or at least it comes out
Speaker 6: in the middle of like the second preseason game. That's
Speaker 6: just not a thing for a starting quarterback to retire
Speaker 6: middle of the second or third preseason game. You're right,
Speaker 6: And then they were booing him, and then he had
Speaker 6: that awkward press conference and you know that's not how
Speaker 6: he wanted it to go. I always think about situations
Speaker 6: like that, Dan, I know you're similar. Who did that?
Speaker 6: Like who told Schefty and Chef? You know, Scheffy did
Speaker 6: his job, but who somebody my guess, and the culture
Speaker 6: organization was not happy and they put it out there
Speaker 6: and kind of put Andrew in a bad spot.
Speaker 2: Yes, Chefty tried to do a NFL camp on Luka
Speaker 2: Doncik and Anthony Davis, and I think he said Joe
Speaker 2: Burrow for Lamar Jackson, right, And that's not good. That's
Speaker 2: why I've heard it's not even close. It would be
Speaker 2: where you have somebody who is twenty five and then
Speaker 2: a quarterback who's thirty two, a quarterback who's twenty five
Speaker 2: and awesome, and then if you said Joe Burrow Dak Prescott,
Speaker 2: that to me would be the comp Dak Prescott injured
Speaker 2: a lot has had some success hasn't won anything. Joe
Speaker 2: Burrow is twenty five and still in his prime. So
Speaker 2: I would say that is that would be the modern
Speaker 2: day NFL comp for me.
Speaker 6: So and again I don't follow the MBDA that closely, Dan,
Speaker 6: but everybody's saying, how could the MAVs do this? How
Speaker 6: could the MAVs do this? Whoever's running their organization, they're
Speaker 6: not that thomb right, Like, there's got to be some reasoning,
Speaker 6: some logic. Maybe we'll find out, maybe we won't. I
Speaker 6: saw where he's eligible for the super Max in a
Speaker 6: year or two. Maybe he told him I don't want
Speaker 6: to be there, like, I'm not gonna sign this with you.
Speaker 6: If if you want to get anything in return for me,
Speaker 6: you better trade me. Now, there's got to be more
Speaker 6: to it that. For whatever various reasons, agents and all
Speaker 6: that stuff, they don't they want, they don't want to
Speaker 6: put it out there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he was generally shocked.
Speaker 2: And I think you have a GM who basically says
Speaker 2: I'm either gonna be you know, champion or vilified, Yeah,
Speaker 2: in three years from now.
Speaker 1: So it feels like and there there's always you.
Speaker 2: Know, ancillary things that go into this, but you know,
Speaker 2: they talked about the Miami or the Mavericks culture that
Speaker 2: you know, these players will buy into the MAVs culture,
Speaker 2: and maybe he didn't. They talked about his weight and
Speaker 2: he was out of shape, so you know these code
Speaker 2: words that it felt like, do we want to give
Speaker 2: this guy seventy five million dollars a year?
Speaker 6: Year? Right?
Speaker 2: And I'm thinking, it's not like he's going to slow
Speaker 2: down or he can't jump any hunt. He's like Luca
Speaker 2: don Or. Yeah, he's like Joker where he's not going
Speaker 2: to slow down because he's already slowed down.
Speaker 1: Like he this is.
Speaker 2: How he plays. He's gonna play old man basketball the
Speaker 2: rest of his career. So that's what I don't If
Speaker 2: he shows up with a you know, a beer belly,
Speaker 2: cut off shorts, smoking cigarettes, I'd be like, all right,
Speaker 2: that guy's still gonna get twenty five at night.
Speaker 6: So it's funny because the two things that jump out
Speaker 6: to me, I'll never forget. I can't remember what game
Speaker 6: they won last year. But after the game, he's drinking
Speaker 6: a beer. Yeah, Michael Finley comes over.
Speaker 4: And takes it out of his hand.
Speaker 6: I thought, I don't know about that, Like he's the
Speaker 6: best player and it's one thing to say, hey man,
Speaker 6: probably not a good idea to have that beer and everything,
Speaker 6: like take it out of his head. I'd be like, dude,
Speaker 6: who are you?
Speaker 4: I just won the game for us with the NBA Finals.
Speaker 6: Give me my beer. That's how I would have been,
Speaker 6: Give me my beer. The other thing is there's certain
Speaker 6: I played basketball through high school, loved it. I get
Speaker 6: the guys that are fast, can jump high, all those
Speaker 6: things I'm amazed by, like Brunson or Luca. Damn they're slow,
Speaker 6: they can't jump, and yet there I watched them. I'm like,
Speaker 6: how is he doing this? Because you know, it is
Speaker 6: hard to get your shot off if you're not coming
Speaker 6: off a screen, off a dribble. The way they change
Speaker 6: it's really really impressive.
Speaker 2: But it's like, and we're talking to Ross Tucker a
Speaker 2: CBS Sports, like Le'Veon bell he wasn't the fastest guy, right,
Speaker 2: but he kind of drifted drifted boom, Yeah, drifted drifted boom.
Speaker 2: You know, And I guess there's comparisons in all walks
Speaker 2: of life. Let me go back to the trade, where
Speaker 2: Luca may thank the MAVs at some point for restarting
Speaker 2: his career or getting to realize get in shape, you
Speaker 2: can be one of the greatest players of all time.
Speaker 2: I go back to when Chris Carter was going through
Speaker 2: his drug problems and Buddy Ryan traded him. Yeah, and
Speaker 2: Chris later in his career said he saved my career
Speaker 2: because he he woke me up. I don't know if
Speaker 2: it's to that degree with Luca that he you know
Speaker 2: he does it's not drugs, but it's is taking care
Speaker 2: of himself. And Buddy traded Chris and didn't want to,
Speaker 2: but had to because he thought it was best for
Speaker 2: Chris's career.
Speaker 6: But also maybe this is just who Luca is and
Speaker 6: maybe he can keep going like this. I mean, isn't
Speaker 6: Ovechkin about to break Gretzky's record? Okin? I know some
Speaker 6: guys that know he's been running hard for a while,
Speaker 6: maybe not as much as he used to do, But
Speaker 6: like the fact that that guy is gonna break Gretzky's record.
Speaker 6: He's not only burns it at both ends, but he's
Speaker 6: like a hitter, you know what I mean, Like he's
Speaker 6: not like just your finesse you know, goal scorer like Ovechkin.
Speaker 6: That that's incredible to me, that he's still playing and
Speaker 6: about the break that I can't believe I'm talking basketball.
Speaker 2: Kim Legler here, if the Eagles win the Super Bowl,
Speaker 2: and how will we look at how will history look
Speaker 2: at that trade that the Eagles made getting Saquon barklay.
Speaker 6: Ooh, they will call it one of the best free
Speaker 6: agent signings of all time. Yeah, they'll call it one
Speaker 6: of the best free agent signs of all time. And
Speaker 6: it'll just make it look even uglier for the Giants.
Speaker 6: I mean, we talked about a little bit about McNabb
Speaker 6: and bledsoee in division. Not only was Saquon and division.
Speaker 6: We have it on tape, the owner saying to the
Speaker 6: GM boy, I'd have a tough time sleeping. He's our
Speaker 6: best player, he's by far our most popular player. And
Speaker 6: the owner kept that guy. The owner said, I would
Speaker 6: Can you imagine losing a guy that might be a
Speaker 6: difference maker, may be offensive player of the year Dan.
Speaker 6: I think they offered him ten and a half eleven,
Speaker 6: but they weren't going to go to twelve and a
Speaker 6: half or whatever. If you think about that, these are
Speaker 6: the Giants are probably worth eight billion dollars, right over
Speaker 6: a million and a half. They let their best and
Speaker 6: most popular player go to the other team in their division.
Speaker 6: Don't you think in like just just ticket sales and
Speaker 6: just jerseys, don't you think Saquan almost makes up for
Speaker 6: that million and a half a year like that. Stuff
Speaker 6: like that is the stuff I really really don't understand.
Speaker 2: I just hope that it revitalized the running back position
Speaker 2: because I kept waiting, knew it would happen. I didn't
Speaker 2: know would happened like this. But you got Derek Kentner, mean,
Speaker 2: you got teams that really James Cook that they focus
Speaker 2: on the run.
Speaker 6: Josh Jacobs, Joe Mixon. There's a bunch of guys that
Speaker 6: got signed, older veteran guys. You know, here's what's crazy,
Speaker 6: because I wrote about this during the season. You know what,
Speaker 6: Michael Pittman for the Colts, he's a good player, right,
Speaker 6: nice receiver. He makes twenty four million dollars a year.
Speaker 6: He makes double Saquon. He makes three times what Derek
Speaker 6: Henry makes. So kudos to Howie Roseman and Eric DaCosta
Speaker 6: and the gms of the Ravens and the Eagles for saying, wait, Mante,
Speaker 6: this is not right, like a good game for Michael Pittman,
Speaker 6: is like six catches for eighty eight yards. We're gonna
Speaker 6: give Saquon Barkley the ball one way or the other
Speaker 6: twenty times a game. And I think they also correctly
Speaker 6: figured out, you know, Saquon, if you get him to
Speaker 6: the second level and he gets that speed going look out.
Speaker 6: The Giants just could rarely do it. But with the
Speaker 6: Eagles offensive line, he gets that space to get up
Speaker 6: to twenty two miles an hour often and that's why
Speaker 6: we've had I said, I can't remember a guy maybe
Speaker 6: Chris Johnson from the Titans that one year, but I
Speaker 6: can't remember a guy with this many sixty seventy yard right.
Speaker 6: This doesn't happen in the NFL. It's great to see
Speaker 6: always man. Good to see you guys in person for sure.
Speaker 2: Thanks for all your contributions. We appreciate it. You're always
Speaker 2: there for us. The audience loved you, and you know
Speaker 2: we do you have the Eagles winning? Do you have
Speaker 2: to have Eagles winning?
Speaker 6: No? I don't know. I think I don't know how
Speaker 6: you pick sirianni and Hurts over Andy Reid and Mahomes
Speaker 6: no one score game. I really don't. I mean, I
Speaker 6: think the Eagles them.
Speaker 1: And you covered the Eagles ull season.
Speaker 6: I do their preseason games. I do multiple things for
Speaker 6: the Eagles, but when someone asked for my prediction, I
Speaker 6: gotta go with what I think is the most likely scenario.
Speaker 6: Most likely scenario is one score game. In a one
Speaker 6: score game, I'm taking Mahomes, Andy Reid over Hurts and Sara.
Speaker 6: They can do it. But I think the Eagles' best
Speaker 6: chance is if they just run away from it with
Speaker 6: Sakua and win like thirty four to twenty three. Eagles
Speaker 6: need to somehow either win by two scores or be
Speaker 6: up by two scores late, because if it's a one
Speaker 6: score game, We've seen that movie over and over and
Speaker 6: over again.
Speaker 2: He's Ross Tucker with CBS Sports west Wood One. We'll
Speaker 2: take a break. When we come back, we'll give you
Speaker 2: our best and worst of the weekend. We'll also bring

Speaker 2: I had a glass last night, and I had a
Speaker 2: cigar with the big German. We sat outside and sipped
Speaker 2: in social until the wee hours of the morning. Actually
Speaker 2: it was around nine o'clock and I said I've got
Speaker 2: to go to bed. I go to bed. I look
Speaker 2: out my window because I hear this noise, and my
Speaker 2: window overlooks the pool, and I'm looking out and I'm going,
Speaker 2: there's naked people in there. There's naked guys in the pool.
Speaker 2: Those are guys that I work with who were in
Speaker 2: the pool led by Dylan, and week's our cameraman. I'm going,
Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna have to have a talk with
Speaker 2: the boys coming up that next day, that's today. Spoke
Speaker 2: to them and I said, hey, it's a long week, now,
Speaker 2: come on. I know every day's the super Bowl, but
Speaker 2: you're not playing in it, Yes, PAULI.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I was watching and there was another couple in
Speaker 8: there and it became a brokusie. And when I looked,
Speaker 8: the other couple had just left when the bros went
Speaker 8: down in their boxer brief, but that other couple was
Speaker 8: about to be shot.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yes.
Speaker 10: Is that why that big truck of chlorine pulled up
Speaker 10: early this morning?
Speaker 4: After what happened with that? I don't know what's going
Speaker 4: on there.
Speaker 1: David in Ohio, Best and worst of the weekend, David, Come.
Speaker 14: On, Dan, everyone's gone skinny dipping at least one time
Speaker 14: she got to cut him some slick a little bit. Anyway,
Speaker 14: I got two.
Speaker 1: Beats, David David, David, no one was skinny.
Speaker 2: Just let you know those skinny dipping No one was skinny.
Speaker 14: Anyway, I got two bests of the weekend. I when
Speaker 14: I placed the vet with Dylan about the over under
Speaker 14: five and a half, Taylor Swift told my wife about it.
Speaker 14: She goes, oh, I love to throw a pine in
Speaker 14: your faith on video. I was like, oh, that's great.
Speaker 14: I'm glad you're on my side. Second best of the
Speaker 14: weekend after the whole Luca Dontic trade. I think that's
Speaker 14: how you say his names. Uh. The uh Dallas Cowboys
Speaker 14: are no longer the worst run team in Texas. So
Speaker 14: that's what I got. Thank you.
Speaker 1: Well, I don't know about that you got.
Speaker 2: There's thirty years of malpractice with the with the Cowboys.
Speaker 2: The man's made it to the NBA finals last year.
Speaker 2: Gus in La, Hey Gus, good.
Speaker 5: Morning, mister Patrick. Hope you and the boys that are
Speaker 5: having yourself as a great time down there super Bowl week.
Speaker 5: I can't wait to listen to the BRG podcast and
Speaker 5: hear about how that what they call it. Dude, soup
Speaker 5: went down.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so, dude soup.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 5: I was watching an interview with Charles Barkley that he
Speaker 5: did on NBA TV.
Speaker 6: You know this trade. It was quiet.
Speaker 11: I was at home alone Saturday night, just enjoying a
Speaker 11: nice reaction time. I heard my neighbor yell what And
Speaker 11: I don't know why. I'm like, I'm like, what the
Speaker 11: Hell's going on? For some reason? And then my Twitter
Speaker 11: goes off and I started saying everything. Charles Barkley said
Speaker 11: he couldn't think of a trade this monumental in his lifetime.
Speaker 11: Charles Barkley's been around the game forever. Is this the
Speaker 11: biggest trade in the history of the NBA?
Speaker 6: And will we ever make sense of it?
Speaker 11: Or do we have to measure it in NBA Championships
Speaker 11: for it to ever make sense?
Speaker 5: You will have a great reach boy, take care.
Speaker 1: Thank you guys.
Speaker 2: I don't know if we'll measure this in championships, but
Speaker 2: I think we're going to look and get the full
Speaker 2: story on this eventually, Like why did they why are
Speaker 2: they moving on from him? He's twenty five. Was it
Speaker 2: that he wasn't buying into getting in shape? Was there
Speaker 2: anything that happened behind the scenes. The money that you're
Speaker 2: going to spend, You're going to invest three hundred and
Speaker 2: fifty million dollars with somebody. I mean, these are these
Speaker 2: are real difficult decisions. It used to be did you
Speaker 2: want that guy on your team? How long did you
Speaker 2: want him on your team? Now it's I don't know.
Speaker 2: Do we want to give him three hundred and four
Speaker 2: hundred million dollars? Is he going to buy in? What
Speaker 2: can we do with that money? If we, you know,
Speaker 2: save that spend it elsewhere. You had to make a
Speaker 2: hard decision here for whatever reason. I still come back
Speaker 2: to why, because I don't want Anthony Davis. If the
Speaker 2: answer is Anthony Davis and the question is what do
Speaker 2: you get for Luka Doncik, I don't like that answer
Speaker 2: because that is one or two more years. In my opinion,
Speaker 2: the Lakers can look at this as a seven year
Speaker 2: window with Luca, and I like that better. I still
Speaker 2: maintain Sacramento got more for Daron Fox going to San
Speaker 2: Antonio than I think the Lakers had to give up
Speaker 2: for Luka Doncick.
Speaker 8: That to me does not make any sense. Yeah, polm
Speaker 8: it's the biggest trade because it's star for star. Anthony
Speaker 8: Davis was a star last year. I think he was
Speaker 8: Marvin's second team All NBA. That's high level. Usually trades
Speaker 8: like this and if you want to bring in Barkley,
Speaker 8: Barkley was traded at age twenty eight from Philly for
Speaker 8: a bunch of dudes, a bunch of Rando's, a bunch
Speaker 8: of B level players.
Speaker 9: That's usually how it goes down.
Speaker 1: But it wasn't salary related.
Speaker 2: It was like Charles had kind of you know, wanted
Speaker 2: out or worn out as welcome there with Philadelphia. But
Speaker 2: he did win the MVP I think the next year
Speaker 2: in Phoenix. Yes, Marvin.
Speaker 3: As far as sports shock, where does Mike Jordan's first
Speaker 3: retirement rink?
Speaker 2: That's up there because we didn't believe it. It was
Speaker 2: like he's and I remember talking to Sonny Viccaro, who
Speaker 2: signed Michael to Nike, and he told me that Michael
Speaker 2: is going to go play baseball. And I'm like, so
Speaker 2: in the off season he's going to go and goes no,
Speaker 2: he's not going to play basketball. He's going to go
Speaker 2: play baseball. And this is when the story first came
Speaker 2: out because I got a hold of Sunny because I
Speaker 2: figured he would know something about this, and when he's
Speaker 2: telling me it, I'm like, wait a minute, hold on,
Speaker 2: Michael Jordan, after you know, three champion l he's going
Speaker 2: to retire and play baseball. Yes, so that that might
Speaker 2: be a bigger shocker if you consider the best player
Speaker 2: in the game in the history of the game, maybe
Speaker 2: and he decides he's done with basketball. That's a good
Speaker 2: comp there. We will give you our best and worst
Speaker 2: of the weekend.
Speaker 1: Coming up.
Speaker 2: Chris Sims from Football Night in America will stop by,
Speaker 2: and Brian winhors is Ell our one in the books,
Speaker 2: Our two on the way
