Speaker 4: bring that. Yeah, Bradley Bill. We you and I talked

40
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 4: about him and the Phoenix Suns like last year, you know,

41
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,240
Speaker 4: when I was on just starting with you, how just

42
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 4: throughout the year and how disappointing that team was and

43
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 4: I just never bought almost a year.

44
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 3: When is this this is too much? Too much?

45
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 1: Started like April, No, I mean September, September nineteenth, to

46
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 1: be exactly. That's what it is. Oh my god, time flying,

47
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: it is flying, that's crazy, that's what I'm trying to

48
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: tell you six years is going to fly by six years,

49
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 1: six hours, sixty minutes.

50
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,799
Speaker 3: I'm just saying it might be six Check your phone,

51
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 3: it might be six more minutes. Boss has hit us up.

52
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 4: But I was never a fan of the three of them,

53
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 4: Bradley Bill, Kevin Durant in Devin book, It.

54
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 3: Just I like it.

55
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:59,239
Speaker 1: When it happened, everybody was so all, who's not gonna

56
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 1: like that team? You know, they were all ready to

57
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: put them in the finals. I was like, really, I

58
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 1: just didn't get it.

59
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, Bradley Beal has now spoken, and it looks

60
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 4: like you got the team trying to find a way

61
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 4: to do a buy out with him and that would

62
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 4: allow him to then become a restricted free agent eventually.

63
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 4: To make it work, he would have to give back

64
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 4: like thirteen point eight million.

65
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 3: In order to make that work.

66
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 4: They're gonna stretch the money out that they owe him,

67
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 4: which is two years, one hundred about one hundred eleven,

68
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 4: I believe it is. They're gonna have to stretch that

69
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 4: over five years. That's part of how they're gonna be

70
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 4: able to do it. That keeps them below the luxury tax.

71
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 4: Them being the Sun so they're trying to do that

72
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 4: so they can get rid of him. You know, he's

73
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 4: got that trade clause, no trade clause, so only two

74
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 4: players in the league.

75
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 1: How he has how Bradley talk about the incompetence of

76
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 1: the Washington front off.

77
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 4: Dude, Bradley's build naything anything?

78
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 3: Why reason are you kidding? Steph Curry and Lebron are

79
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 3: probably the only two that you'd say, all right, that

80
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 3: makes it. They've earned that. It makes absolutely.

81
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 1: Going on with the Dodgers, they got molly wopped over

82
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: the weekend. It's five nothing already in Milwaukee.

83
00:03:59,320 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 3: Is this the first?

84
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 4: It's a first Inny and there's Till Tool and Yoshi

85
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 4: Nobu is an All Star and not looking.

86
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 3: Like one All star, my butt not tonight.

87
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 4: Now back to Bradley Beal and the Dodgers are they

88
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 4: are having some issues right now.

89
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 3: So my thing is this.

90
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 4: So there'd also have been some reporting that there's a

91
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 4: few teams that he might be interested in joining, the Warriors,

92
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 4: kind of you're what you expect, the Warriors, the Lakers,

93
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 4: the Clippers, and my missing one more Robb Ge Warriors, Lakers, Clippers,

94
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 4: and I think that's it. Those are the teams that

95
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 4: he's interested in possibly joining, and to me, in the

96
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 4: Timberwolves and Bucks as well. To me, this absolutely sounds

97
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:44,600
Speaker 4: like rob a Lakers situation. Now the Lakers can only

98
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,039
Speaker 4: offer him a mid level exception, but to me, they're

99
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 4: finding a way. You find a way to rook it out.

100
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 4: Maybe he takes the last. They just find it a

101
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,040
Speaker 4: way to make this work. And this to me sounds

102
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,159
Speaker 4: like what the Lakers have done over the last six

103
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,599
Speaker 4: seven years, where they just get a guy. They go

104
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 4: get a Waiters and like, ooh, this would be good.

105
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 4: They go get a guy, get Isaiah Thomas. Well maybe

106
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,799
Speaker 4: he still has that magic like he had with the Celtics.

107
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 4: They go get a guy like Russell Westbrook and say ooh,

108
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 4: this can work. And it just doesn't work. And to me,

109
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 4: this is what it sounds like. Bradley Bill says at

110
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 4: this point in his career, all I want to do

111
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,039
Speaker 4: is win. I'll just do whatever. I'll come off the bitch.

112
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 4: I don't want to I don't like it, but I'll

113
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 4: do whatever. First of all, already saying I don't like

114
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 4: it lets me know publicly. It's like, all right, I

115
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:25,479
Speaker 4: know you don't like it. Internally, but you ain't got

116
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 4: to say it publicly. And it just sounds like what

117
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 4: the Lakers do to me, Rob this sounds like he

118
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 4: has three or fourteen, four or five teams he wants

119
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 4: to go to. I just feel like he's gonna land

120
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 4: on the Lakers, and the Lakers are gonna be able

121
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 4: to go. See, look, we got Bradley beal as opposed

122
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 4: to building a program, building a team, building a full

123
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 4: on roster with an identity and a purpose, and you

124
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 4: kind of know what they're about. And it seems like

125
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 4: the way they put a patch on a tire you

126
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:49,920
Speaker 4: had tire issues instead of going to get a new

127
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 4: tire and get it and you're good to go and

128
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 4: you can run on the ground and you can you

129
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 4: know that tire can become a great for your car.

130
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 4: To me, this is just when we slap on a

131
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,119
Speaker 4: patch and say, you got Bradley Bill. So we should

132
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 4: be good as opposed to really understanding what it's gonna

133
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 4: take to build something to me, and that's what teams

134
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,599
Speaker 4: have been able to do. Thunder the Rockets. Uh you

135
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 4: look at obviously the Celtics had done that for years.

136
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,279
Speaker 4: The Pacers the building slowly building things, even the caves.

137
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 4: Darry Garland isn't gonna work with Donovan Mitchell, Yes, it is,

138
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 4: just slowly keep going. Evan Mobile is gonna work. And

139
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,159
Speaker 4: I feel like the Lakers are gonna patch this thing

140
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,039
Speaker 4: on and it's just gonna be. I don't I don't

141
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 4: think it's gonna work because you're gonna rest and say,

142
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 4: look we got DeAndre and Bradley Beial and that was it,

143
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 4: and all of a sudden, the me you don't you

144
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,600
Speaker 4: still don't have to say those two names. That is

145
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 4: not like Bradley Bill's now right now, I'm just seven

146
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 4: years ago, Brad right, I'm just saying you go the future.

147
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,359
Speaker 4: Those are two guys nobody wants seriously, like like just

148
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 4: think about what you just the Lakers now pick up

149
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 4: people that nobody wants and they've been doing that. And

150
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,480
Speaker 4: then my last point, I'll throw it over to you.

151
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 4: This is what happens when you have a Lebron because

152
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 4: he's so good that you feel like always just need

153
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 4: one more little thing, right, and watch this rob take

154
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 4: the Lakers away from it. Go back to Lebron with

155
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 4: the Calves, and what were the Calves trying to do?

156
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 4: Get Shack when he's one hundred and eighty five years

157
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,679
Speaker 4: old and sixty pounds overweight. Gogle, Go get Ben Wallace

158
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 4: when he was past his prime. Go get Dereck Rose

159
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 4: pass his prime. Go get day d Wade. We can

160
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 4: make it the heatos to pass his prime. Boy, was

161
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 4: that bad exam?

162
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 3: That was so bad?

163
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 4: And I feel like teams do this with Lebron because

164
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 4: they feel like, ooh, he's just a thing away, as

165
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 4: opposed to saying, hey, it's gonna we have to have

166
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 4: a bunch of guys who are gonna play fast, who

167
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 4: are gonna be athletic, who are youthful, who have energy,

168
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 4: who can you know, come out night and n out

169
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,760
Speaker 4: because Lebron ain't gonna play eighty two games, Luca might

170
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 4: only play, you know, seventy games. Who else is gonna

171
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 4: be there night and night out. And I think this

172
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 4: just smells of the Lakers to me. Bradley Bill's gonna

173
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 4: somehow fall the Lakers. They're gonna patch that tire up,

174
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 4: put the little patch over the hole and say see

175
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 4: we fixed it, and we're all gonna be like, oh yeah, okay,

176
00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 4: and then the air is gonna come out that Tires said.

177
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 4: This is when I hear him say this. The team'ss.

178
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 4: The Warriors aren't gonna do it. The Clippers are straight.

179
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 4: They just got Josh Collins and they are gotten a

180
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 4: bunch of good pieces. Their guard heavy. Anyway, it's gonna

181
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 4: wind up being the Lakers.

182
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,239
Speaker 3: Because his name has come up with the Clippers.

183
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 4: Though it did, and I just think that you got

184
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 4: John Collins. I think they're happy they got rid of

185
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 4: Norman Powell. Who's who's better than Bill at this point

186
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 4: in their careers.

187
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Norman Powell is really good.

188
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 1: But you have to give to get like that, like people,

189
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 1: This is this is what people talk about all the time.

190
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 1: You have to give up something. People aren't gonna just

191
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 1: give you good players. Okay, well we want Norman bou right,

192
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,680
Speaker 1: So that's what happens. But anyway, I would say, if

193
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 1: I'm Bradley Beal, though, no way am I taking a

194
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:40,959
Speaker 1: buy out?

195
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 3: You hear me?

196
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:46,840
Speaker 1: No way, no how, no, give me my loot. I

197
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 1: want every nickel you did this. You're the one who

198
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 1: traded for me. Why would I have a thirteen million

199
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:58,440
Speaker 1: dollar haircut? Seriously, you figure it out, release me, spread

200
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 1: it out over nineteen years. I would say, Bobby, I

201
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 1: would say yes. If if i'm I would go like

202
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:12,200
Speaker 1: we could work through this. I'll be Bobby Bania two

203
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 1: point zero. You want you, you know what, give me

204
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,960
Speaker 1: my thirteen million in the course of over the next

205
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 1: twenty years. You know what I mean? At two million

206
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 1: dollars a year with interest or whatever. I'll take that.

207
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 1: But no, why am I giving up? This is the

208
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 1: deal you agreed when you traded for me, right when

209
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,439
Speaker 1: you got me from Washington. I have a no trade.

210
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 1: If you don't want me, release me, cut me. Did

211
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:39,960
Speaker 1: you see what happened to Damian Lillard?

212
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 5: Right?

213
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 1: Why am I taking some discounter or helping you out?

214
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 1: I wouldn't do it.

215
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 4: You don't want the freedom, though, to be able to

216
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 4: go like you might look at you speaking to day.

217
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 1: They don't want me, release me like they did Damian Lillard.

218
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 1: Give me my money, right, That's all I'm saying. I

219
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,560
Speaker 1: want the Damian Lillard deal. I don't care what you

220
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 1: have on the books, what you've done. There's no The

221
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 1: Bucks did not want Damian little guess what they did.

222
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 1: Spread the money like mayonnaise over four or five years,

223
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: and they owed him one hundred and eleven, Rob G,

224
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 1: and the money about the same.

225
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 6: Yeah. The only reason why the Phoenix Suns cannot do

226
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:18,959
Speaker 6: that is because they've already waved and stretched two other

227
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,079
Speaker 6: guys before. Well, that's your that's their problem.

228
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 3: That's your problem, not mine. I'm not a front office person.

229
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 3: Y'all wanted me. I'm here, pay me.

230
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 1: But I think if you and if you don't, either

231
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 1: that or I'm playing. I'm here to play. I'm gonna

232
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,319
Speaker 1: get my paycheck. I'm here to play.

233
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:35,120
Speaker 3: They don't want that.

234
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 4: Okay, Now they got Jalen Green, who they feel much

235
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 4: better about it because just because he's younger and he

236
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 4: has you know, the ceiling is high.

237
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 3: Dude, they want Bradley.

238
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 4: But the reason why I'm not saying rob you can

239
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 4: have your freedom because you can literally be Damian Lillard

240
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 4: in this case and go be him with the bucks

241
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,599
Speaker 4: if that's how it works out, and and go be

242
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:54,080
Speaker 4: free and play with Gianni's and.

243
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 3: Lopez is gone, but.

244
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:03,320
Speaker 1: Not thirteen million dollars but not thirteen Yeah, that's great,

245
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:04,320
Speaker 1: release me.

246
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,440
Speaker 3: Do whatever you have to do, rob G. You can't.

247
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:08,360
Speaker 3: That's what I have to do.

248
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 4: I have to let you go spread it out over

249
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 4: five year kid, But you gotta take thirteen point eight

250
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 4: million back.

251
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 3: No, I'm not taking it back. So you want to

252
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 3: be here and we all go, we go thirty and fiftys.

253
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 3: I'll stay here and you'll eventually have to eat the money.

254
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 3: That's it. They can do it. They can eat the money.

255
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 3: They can do it. They don't have to spread it out.

256
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 3: Eat the money. You are to count the money. Eat

257
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 3: the money.

258
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 5: Man.

259
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 4: At some point I want to go and go be in.

260
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,959
Speaker 4: Maybe he's thirty years old. Now I'm not giving about

261
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,439
Speaker 4: four or five more real you know, Rob, give real

262
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 4: years in this NBA. Who did I bring up.

263
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 3: To you earlier? Dwight Howard.

264
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 1: Dwight Howard gave up twenty million dollars to get away

265
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: from Kobe when he went. You don't think he wants

266
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,679
Speaker 1: that money back? Now, come on, man, are you crazy?

267
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 1: Everybody's like, oh, well, at that time, he's making money.

268
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 1: You think you're telling me Dwight Howard couldn't use that

269
00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 1: twenty million?

270
00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 3: He playing? Where's he playing? Now?

271
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 1: I don't know?

272
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:01,360
Speaker 3: Big three?

273
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 1: He's in the Big three, Big three, and he's like

274
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 1: looking for any opportunity. If you had that twenty million.

275
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:08,920
Speaker 1: You wouldn't have to play in the Big wants any.

276
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 4: Other situation, I tell you, I mean, if you wanted

277
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 4: to just for no, I'm just saying, but I will

278
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 4: say Dwight has been on a crusade ever since the

279
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 4: Laker has let him go. Like you know how some

280
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:18,679
Speaker 4: people it is what it is. I moved all my life.

281
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,439
Speaker 4: Dwight was begging for a while. It got a little weird.

282
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 3: Well because but he wanted money.

283
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 4: I mean he was like Lake every I mean he

284
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 4: was every game some team, I'll rebounding them to buy

285
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 4: fifteen he it wouldn't happened to me. He still need

286
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 4: to me, Genie, Genie, I mean great, and my lion roped.

287
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 4: I'm in great shape.

288
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 1: It was weird Dwight like, all right, what was weird

289
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 1: is that he gave up twenty million dollars. Well, Kobe

290
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 1: wash him, that was gonna work. No, but I'm not

291
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 1: you could do that, But I'm not giving up twenty

292
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 1: I'm not right. They were gonna fight every other week

293
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 1: and will I still get my twenty million dollar Patrick

294
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:53,720
Speaker 1: every other week?

295
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:55,679
Speaker 4: Him and Kobe were going because Dwight was gonna be

296
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 4: doing whatever that but didn't we doing it. Whatever the

297
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 4: TikTok of twenty twelve, make a trade, get rid.

298
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,680
Speaker 1: Of me, send me, but send me with my extra

299
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 1: twenty He took less money to go to Houston.

300
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 3: It was a ridiculous Who was the agent? What guy

301
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 3: gives up twenty million dollars?

302
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,199
Speaker 6: That was funny about what you said, Rodneys, that Kevin

303
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 6: Durant demanded a trade out of Brooklyn before his extension

304
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 6: even kicked in. Dame Lillard got bought out before this

305
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 6: new extension is kicked in from Portland. So that was

306
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 6: what three years ago now, So the idea of give

307
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 6: me my money and feeding the rest out later has

308
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:33,559
Speaker 6: really been perfected. So I'm surprised Badley.

309
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 1: Being would be willing to give up money, right, I'm

310
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: dead serious, Like, that's a lot of money.

311
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 3: I think he's crazy.

312
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 4: But it's only the thirteen eight total, right, meaning it's

313
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 4: not correct. Yeah, so I think for him, he's saying

314
00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 4: thirteen point eight over the totality of my contract. I'll

315
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 4: be all right, I'm still about to get a hundred

316
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 4: and ten one hundred eleven million dollars.

317
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:53,719
Speaker 3: I'm not giving that, and I'm getting ready to go

318
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 3: somewhere else.

319
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:56,720
Speaker 4: Ball out might be able to get some playoff checks

320
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 4: if I go, you know, go to Milwaukee, get some

321
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 4: play off checks in Milwaukee, or go you know where,

322
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:03,080
Speaker 4: if I go to the Lakers, like I think they

323
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 4: would make the playoffs. Lakers, but I just don't think

324
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:06,079
Speaker 4: they would be as great as they think they are

325
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 4: if they would get badly Beal. And it just feels

326
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,439
Speaker 4: like a lake very much a Laker move robery. You know,

327
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 4: that's your team, you know that's what happens.

328
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, and I'm actually all board with it. I would

329
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 6: love to rent to make it happen.

330
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 3: And Bradley we need all the hell we can get.

331
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 3: That's how Yeah.

332
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 6: I mean, Bradley Beal at twenty five million is a

333
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 6: great player. Bradley Bilot fifty million is a different conversation.

334
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 3: Well that's what he at, rob So.

335
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 6: But if you're, if you're anyone else who gets them

336
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 6: get him from what five eight million dollars, that's a

337
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 6: steal at that.

338
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 3: Man, they're stealing people who don't get wanted so much.

339
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 1: So I thought the Dodgers just got sold for ten

340
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 1: billion and they're using coupon to get players. The Lakers, Lakers, Lakers,

341
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 1: the Lakers, Like what the Niggers get sold for ten billion?

342
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 1: And then you look at the players, the players nobody wants.

343
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:51,320
Speaker 1: Is that what your team is?

344
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 3: Rob G?

345
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, but if you can get these guys for free, base.

346
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 1: Huch, there's a reason they're free, Like yeah, yeah, because

347
00:14:58,680 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 1: that bad situation.

348
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 3: It's because it's not because they're in.

349
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:08,040
Speaker 4: Just five centers on their team was but he was

350
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 4: with the team that went to the NBA Y and

351
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 4: then what happened, that's the part he went to Portland.

352
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 4: Portland's like, yeah, we wanch you just skipped the whole

353
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 4: part there, Rob G. If I mind you, I drafted you,

354
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 4: it only been like year two or three, you would

355
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 4: think we just went to the finals or it's own baby.

356
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 4: We you know we locked in. We got our guy

357
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 4: in the future. No, that just showed you something, ain't the.

358
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 3: Remember that they didn't want to sign him, They didn't

359
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 3: want to give him the deal.

360
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 6: And then Indiana did. Then they matched it and they

361
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:38,480
Speaker 6: traded him like six months.

362
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 3: Later they played gotcha?

363
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 1: Eight seven Fox is a telephone number?

364
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 3: All right?

365
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 1: Should Bradley Beal even offer to take a buyout from

366
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 1: Phoenix and if he does, would it be a mistake

367
00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 1: for the Lakers to pick him up. We'll continue that

425
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,200

Speaker 1: him and ask him to take thirteen million less or whatever.

433
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:57,560

435
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,520

Speaker 8: That's their problem, that's not his problem.

438
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:08,320

459
00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:00,440
Speaker 1: can still release them, Trey. You know that's my point

460
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,480
Speaker 1: if you really don't want me around.

461
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:02,840

465
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,680

00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 4: would cost you. They ain't gonna do that because that

470
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 4: is pointless.

471
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,680
Speaker 3: Or you could do what they did with Bobby but

472
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 3: Neia or something like that. There's a way. It ain't.

473
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,480
Speaker 1: I'm not giving up any money. You figure it out.

474
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 1: Because team figured it out. People were given the Bucks

475
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 1: a lot of credits.

476
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 6: So what they could do if they if he insisted

477
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 6: on getting all his money and they still want to

478
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,879
Speaker 6: get the cap relief that would come from waiting and stretching,

479
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 6: is they'd say, hey, get all your money, the full whatever,

480
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,400
Speaker 6: one hundred and ten million. Then they'd have to trade

481
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 6: two guys basically like Royce O'Neill and Grayson Allen and

482
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,280
Speaker 6: take really nothing back and say that's how we're gonna

483
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 6: save the money.

484
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 4: And then beans have no depth and those are two

485
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,199
Speaker 4: quality guys on their team. And now you're sitting here,

486
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,640
Speaker 4: what was the point? Sometimes in life is a win

487
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:03,919
Speaker 4: win call and.

488
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 1: Mobile Alabama, you're on the EYD couple of Fox Sports Radio.

489
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:07,680
Speaker 3: What's up call?

490
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 9: Hey guys, thanks for taking my call. I'm going to

491
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,879
Speaker 9: tell you two things he should not pass up that

492
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:17,399
Speaker 9: money because I think for Bradley Beal, with all the

493
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:21,120
Speaker 9: injuries he's had, there's a platter song called his Twilight Time.

494
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,159
Speaker 9: Heavily shades of night are falling this twilight time. I

495
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 9: think Bradley, Bradley Beial's career is entering the twilight phase.

496
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 9: And he says, take the money, don't settle for you know,

497
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 9: don't don't eat it yourself. Let them pay. And then

498
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 9: the Lakers need to think about taking these aging injured

499
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,119
Speaker 9: guys on and uh and and and and trying to

500
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,359
Speaker 9: make something magic happen that's not gonna happen.

501
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,199
Speaker 3: Well, you're saying they should do it. They should. You

502
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 3: shouldn't do that, you know what?

503
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,960
Speaker 1: Like Like the thing that kills me is they think

504
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,159
Speaker 1: that you're the Lakers while nobody else wants the guys

505
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 1: or working out.

506
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:57,880
Speaker 3: But it's gonna work out for you. It's gonna work

507
00:21:57,880 --> 00:21:59,680
Speaker 3: out for us. Not only one guy, two guys go

508
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:01,879
Speaker 3: work out for you. You said, Steve nash Back is how

509
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 3: messed up cool?

510
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,640
Speaker 4: We'll take We'll take them anyway exactly. Isaiah thomas Hip

00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:07,960
Speaker 4: is what we'll get to it. Yeah, oh yeah, but

514
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,679
Speaker 4: So yeah, they have had some chances and moves with that,

515
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 4: and I just think they got to build a better.

516
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:22,200
Speaker 3: Say, one man's chicken is another man's gumbo. That sounds good?

517
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 3: How about that?

548
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,160
Speaker 5: That was here at the great State of Michigan too,

549
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,679
Speaker 5: home to the best team in the American League. I

550
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:47,919
Speaker 5: didn't think I'd be saying that when the season began,

551
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,679
Speaker 5: But the Tigers are playing pretty good ball and I

552
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 5: just love this time of year. All Star Game coming

553
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:54,359
Speaker 5: up a week from now. Can't wait.

554
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,960
Speaker 1: Yes, I'll be in Atlanta. We'll see you down there

555
00:23:58,440 --> 00:23:58,960
Speaker 1: on the way.

556
00:23:59,119 --> 00:23:59,479
Speaker 3: Yeah.

557
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:01,199
Speaker 4: I don't know why you said you didn't think you'd

558
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,120
Speaker 4: be sitting there looking at the best team.

559
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 3: In al John. Did it they were bawling out last year? Yeah?

560
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:07,959
Speaker 3: But that nobody thought they were going to do this,

561
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:08,400
Speaker 3: did they?

562
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:12,720
Speaker 5: Job? You know, probably my mom, who's the most devoted

563
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,719
Speaker 5: and optimistic Tiger's fan there's ever been in the world.

564
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:19,640
Speaker 5: My mom probably called it, and I probably, like most

565
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:21,680
Speaker 5: things in life, guys, I probably should have listened to her.

566
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:25,639
Speaker 3: She's been calling us since nineteen eighty four. Though, John

567
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 3: I'm just saying, you've.

568
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,239
Speaker 5: Been saying every year, Johnny, it's the thar year, our

569
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 5: thar year. Maybe she's right, but I'll tell you what though.

570
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:36,840
Speaker 5: It was interesting. Just on MLB Central this morning, my

571
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:40,399
Speaker 5: colleague Mark Deurosa pointed out that yesterday a game the

572
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,480
Speaker 5: Tigers had no business winning in Cleveland, They're able to

573
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 5: come back and win that game, and he said, that's

574
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 5: the kind of game you win when it's your year,

575
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 5: and they have that little sense about it. The whole

576
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 5: is greater than the sum of the parts, and Rob

577
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 5: you know that sixteen while you were covering them. I

578
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 5: think that this team has them similarities to that group,

579
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 5: because that team was a great team but didn't really

580
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:06,959
Speaker 5: have a ton of superstars, somewhat similar to this one.

581
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 5: Of course, they've got a superstar on the mount and

582
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 5: Terrek Scooble, who's as good as that, and.

583
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:13,880
Speaker 3: That team had Miguel one superstar.

584
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,719
Speaker 5: Cabrera wasn't there yet. Cabrera didn't go up until eight.

585
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yep, that was that.

586
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:27,399
Speaker 5: That was Pudge and Maglio and Carlos Gee, all those years.

587
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 1: Were melted together. I really thought, I was like, what

588
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,680
Speaker 1: two guys six hours because that's when Burland and them

589
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 1: they beat the Yankees.

590
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:34,680
Speaker 3: Am I right? In the playoffs?

591
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:36,800
Speaker 5: That's right, exactly right. So they beat the Yankees and

592
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 5: beat the A's and they had the one layoff and

593
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 5: it never really got going against the Cardinals. But that's

594
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,479
Speaker 5: that is to me where we get on on the

595
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 5: track so easily about about teams that feel inevitable. And

596
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 5: remember remember last year at the at the World Series

597
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 5: when everybody said, oh my gosh, this Dodgers Yankees World

598
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 5: Series was so inevitable. Well, guys, that was the first

599
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 5: time in forty plus years they played in the World Series,

600
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 5: first of all, and second of all, all those who said,

601
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,000
Speaker 5: oh my gosh, it's going to be every year, now,

602
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,640
Speaker 5: look at the Yankees. They at that time they had Soto, still,

603
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,359
Speaker 5: they still had a healthy Garrett Cole. Oh my gosh,

604
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 5: every year the Yankees are going to be there. Now,

605
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 5: my goodness, there's all this negativity around the Yankees and

606
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,119
Speaker 5: all these questions about what's going on with them, and

607
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 5: they don't seem so inevitable to win the American League anymore.

608
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 5: So this is to me, I realize it. It's maybe

609
00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 5: this is a year where there's been so much conversation

610
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 5: about a seeming lack of parody and the super teams,

611
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:38,400
Speaker 5: and is everything advantaging too much to the large market teams. Well,

612
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 5: you've got the Brewers making a surge now in the

613
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,359
Speaker 5: National League Central, You've got the Tigers as the best

614
00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:47,400
Speaker 5: team in the American League. The Blue Jays, No, they're

615
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 5: not a small market team, but they're also not a

616
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,280
Speaker 5: team that's been in the World Series very recently. So

617
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 5: there are teams that are coming out of the radar

618
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,680
Speaker 5: screen in a way that I think is actually good

619
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 5: for the game. Where anyone that says, oh, it's all

620
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:03,159
Speaker 5: about shoey Otani and the Dodgers and that's all that

621
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,680
Speaker 5: we ever talked about, that's just not true. Cal Raley

622
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:08,399
Speaker 5: right now is as promising of the power hit as

623
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,919
Speaker 5: there is in the game. Then you've got the surprising

624
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:14,440
Speaker 5: team leading divisions. So I'm actually quite optimistic about the

625
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,640
Speaker 5: state of the game. Right now, and then the storyline

626
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:17,360
Speaker 5: that we've got.

627
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 1: Well, let's talk about Juan so so, I mean Juan Soto,

628
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:25,680
Speaker 1: because he did not get voted as a starter by fans,

629
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: and he did not make the All Star team. He

630
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 1: still could wind up being a replacement for somebody if

631
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 1: they can't make it or injured. But I'm you know, fans,

632
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,120
Speaker 1: it's their game, the All Star Game, and they didn't

633
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:43,439
Speaker 1: vote Wan Soto. And no matter how fantastic he is, John,

634
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 1: he came on late in June, right, had a great June,

635
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:47,120
Speaker 1: but he.

636
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:49,919
Speaker 3: Struggled the first two months. Isn't that fair?

637
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:54,440
Speaker 5: Well, he was, to your point, he was somewhat averaged

638
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,840
Speaker 5: by his standards. But I would also look at this

639
00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 5: and say this already, Rob, and again, the route to

640
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:05,520
Speaker 5: get here is not necessarily pretty. But he's on pace

641
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:09,119
Speaker 5: to have in ops above nine hundred. Right now is

642
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 5: ops is nine oh four, and he's already had twenty

643
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 5: one homers.

644
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:17,280
Speaker 3: But you gotta admit the start, I mean, just.

645
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 5: So right, the start was poor. And it wasn't just

646
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:28,680
Speaker 5: that it was poor, Rob. I would describe it as passive, passive.

647
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 5: It was too passive. He was still taking his walks

648
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,600
Speaker 5: and so the on base was kind of propping up

649
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 5: his overall ops, but the impact was not there. The

650
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 5: impact has certainly gotten more impressive. I mean, at the

651
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 5: start of June, his batting average was two thirty three,

652
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:51,120
Speaker 5: right and his OPS was seven ninety two. Right now

653
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:54,200
Speaker 5: it's two sixty three and nine oh four. He's again,

654
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 5: Is he having his best year? No, but he's having

655
00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 5: what I would describe as a fine year. This is

656
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:06,360
Speaker 5: not some abject failure. And look at the season. By

657
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 5: the way, He's not the He's not the first guy

658
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 5: to sign a big time contract and scuff will. Believe me,

659
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 5: you look at William Domas in San Francisco, Guys that

660
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 5: have signed major deals that are struggling a heck of

661
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:22,760
Speaker 5: a lot worse than Wan Soto is right now, and

662
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,400
Speaker 5: and and getting a fraction of the negativity. Again, that's

663
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 5: part of playing in New York. We all get that.

664
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 5: But I think in general, what I'll say to you,

665
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 5: Robin Kevin, is this when you have when you have

666
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 5: caught this level of negativity this fast, and then what

667
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 5: I would say is admirably responded to it. By the

668
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 5: way he's played since the start of June. At that

669
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 5: point in time. Once you've been every you've been called

670
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:50,239
Speaker 5: every every name in the book for the first two

671
00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 5: months the season in New York, what's there left to

672
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 5: be afraid of?

673
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:53,640
Speaker 3: Guys?

674
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 5: Really? I mean like, once you've come back from this

675
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 5: and people are saying, well, what a bust you are,

676
00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 5: et cetera, et cetera, and then you you answer your

677
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,600
Speaker 5: credits with the heck of a June, I'm actually feeling

678
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 5: pretty good about where won Soda is now.

679
00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, you just wonder how much the money has to

680
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 4: like where the fans. He ain't living up to the money.

681
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 4: The money, the money, the money.

682
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,520
Speaker 5: Kevin, He's going to be hearing that the rest of

683
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 5: his career, no play, no player. I would say this

684
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,600
Speaker 5: with the possible exception of Botani, because of because of

685
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 5: just his unique talent, because of what he means the

686
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 5: Dodgers commercially, and this absolutely wacky deferred payment situation. He

687
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 5: might be the only guy who signs a deal of

688
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 5: that magnitude where people where people actually say it was

689
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 5: they got their money's worth out of it by the end,

690
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,960
Speaker 5: think about it, pooh hooles, by the end they said.

691
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, for sure, Caprera.

692
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 5: No, they're already saying it about Vladimir Guerrero Junior in Toronto.

693
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 5: We signed a deal like two months ago. I mean,

694
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 5: this is this is just pro sports, especially guys in

695
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:02,280
Speaker 5: a sport without a faulty cap. When when by definition

696
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:08,080
Speaker 5: Steve Cohen or Guggenheim in Los Angeles can completely rewrite

697
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 5: the book about what players are supposed to be paid,

698
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:14,720
Speaker 5: and teams like the Pirates and the Marlins and even

699
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 5: other like even good teams like the Tigers and Brewers,

700
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 5: they can't do a darn thing about it.

701
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:21,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, well we'll see how it all pans out for me.

702
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 4: Josh Hamilton, John, thank you so much. Appreciate your time

703
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 4: as always.

704
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,600

Speaker 4: the week. All right, Rob g take it away with

746
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:36,680
Speaker 4: this outrageousness that I think all of you are wrong.

747
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, this is a question that apparently has broken the

748
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,880
Speaker 6: internet over the weekend. As you guys know, Joey Chestnut

749
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 6: came back and won the Nathan's Hot Dog Union contest

750
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:48,120
Speaker 6: after a sabbatical last year where there was some controversy

751
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 6: he didn't participate. He came back with a vengeance one

752
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 6: again and it sparked an online controversy that is shaking

753
00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 6: up the sports world as a whole. Somebody put out

754
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,400
Speaker 6: a tweet saying if there was a contest where you

755
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 6: had to eat a hot dog and then run one

756
00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 6: hundred meters, who would win Joey Chestnut or Usain Bolt.

757
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 6: Now The guy who put out the question also put

758
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:16,000
Speaker 6: the caveat saying the answer is obvious. Apparently, based on

759
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,040
Speaker 6: the comments and the quote tweets, the answer was far

760
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 6: from obvious because it was pretty split. So, guys, here's

761
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,040
Speaker 6: the question before I give you what the The guy

762
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:24,719
Speaker 6: who prode the question said.

763
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:26,320
Speaker 3: Who wins that race?

764
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 6: Joey Chestnut or who's saining bolt.

765
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 3: This is the first time I can say it's easy.

766
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 3: It's easy, It's easy, Joey Chestnut. No, he does not,

767
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 3: Are you kidding? Listen?

768
00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 4: First of all, pause this whole conversation because of where

769
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 4: it has to go. Okay, just pause in advance. But

770
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:47,919
Speaker 4: you are underestimating all of you who think it would

771
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 4: be you saying how fast Joey Chestnut can swallow the

772
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,480
Speaker 4: hot dog. That's why I told you just pause all

773
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,879
Speaker 4: that in advance, because the dude doesn't. And you did

774
00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 4: the maths, rob.

775
00:34:57,480 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 3: Gie, how fast like five and a half six seconds?

776
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's still not that's not gonna give him

777
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:05,279
Speaker 1: a big enough lead in order to beat you saying ball.

778
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:08,080
Speaker 4: I think you saying ball. It's gonna take him fifteen second,

779
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,400
Speaker 4: which is sat. That's a long which is great, and

780
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 4: he might swallow it.

781
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:13,400
Speaker 3: He's not. He can't.

782
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,000
Speaker 4: Rob Nobody does that. It's not natural. And what it

783
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:17,879
Speaker 4: would take the water, the water to bun.

784
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 3: He don't want to water. You and I both said water, bun.

785
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:21,240
Speaker 3: That's beyond.

786
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 1: I can't watch up. What are you doing with watering

787
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:28,280
Speaker 1: down the body? That's so gross? No condiments, no red onion.

788
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 3: Saw elements real quick in that I could eat a

789
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,520
Speaker 3: hot dog. I've once had twelve hot dogs when I

790
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 3: was a kid.

791
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,439
Speaker 4: And it took you twenty five minutes, thirty minute, an hour,

792
00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:40,360
Speaker 4: two hours. That's my point. That's your twelve hot dogs?

793
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,319
Speaker 4: Is Joey in a minute and a half? Literally, Rob

794
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:47,239
Speaker 4: g he does nine hot dogs a minute, right bro.

795
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,360
Speaker 6: At his peak? Yes, he does nine hot dogs a minute.

796
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,400
Speaker 4: Okay, So okay, So joey'sest not for me. You guys

797
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 4: are that can you know? But here's the difference. It's

798
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 4: an eat dog a hot dog eating contest. So he

799
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 4: wouldn't have to couldn't hip it in water, he'd have

800
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:04,359
Speaker 4: to just eat it. No, it's he's presenting it as

801
00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 4: the normal Nathan.

802
00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 6: Yes, the same rules.

803
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:10,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm still taking you same bowl. I think that

804
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 1: he swallows the hot dog and then he beats him.

805
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:16,480
Speaker 4: No, he you are underestimating how long? And then you

806
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:18,399
Speaker 4: gotta go, I like show that there's nothing in there,

807
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 4: Alex easy Hussein's swallowing that so fast.

808
00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 1: Yes, once he just put it over the once he

809
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 1: knows that this is what I gotta do. He's not

810
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 1: gonna eat it regular and take a minute to eat

811
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:34,520
Speaker 1: a hot dog.

812
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 4: Same ball is going to be throwing up on the

813
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 4: floor because he's gonna try to do it and he's

814
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:38,359
Speaker 4: not working.

815
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,680
Speaker 10: I love, so let's break this down. Because I at

816
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:43,319
Speaker 10: first said, oh, it's got to be you saying both.

817
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 10: But then I realized how long would it take the

818
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:49,840
Speaker 10: average untrained person like all of us to eat a

819
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 10: hot dog, even if we tried to eat it quickly?

820
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 10: I say, fifteen seconds minimum, probably as much as twenty seconds.

821
00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,840
Speaker 4: Now, that's what I said. I said, and that's a

822
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 4: second head start. He's halfway down there, and I think

823
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 4: he wins by about two seconds due and I ain't

824
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:07,080
Speaker 4: gonna use I ain't gonna catch him. He's gonna haalk

825
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:07,920
Speaker 4: him down.

826
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 1: You seen what's that guy that runs in the ballpark

827
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,000
Speaker 1: and they give the fans the head.

828
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:13,920
Speaker 3: Start The sausage.

829
00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:18,879
Speaker 4: The dude racist yeah and uh yeah he half this

830
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:20,200
Speaker 4: half to this.

831
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,399
Speaker 1: Guy runs them down like only a couple of times

832
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:23,600
Speaker 1: I've ever saw that guy lose.

833
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:25,720
Speaker 3: It's UNBELIEVADBROBGI.

834
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,279
Speaker 6: I feel like as much as you're saying that, we

835
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:33,239
Speaker 6: are downplaying Joey Chetz's abillity to swallow pause.

836
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:34,720
Speaker 3: That's just the whole conversation everybody.

837
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:38,320
Speaker 6: As much as you're saying that, I think you're overestimating

838
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:42,920
Speaker 6: his ability to cover one hundred meets. Yes, yeah, now

839
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:46,040
Speaker 6: I'm not I'm not praying that he gets hurt he

840
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:48,520
Speaker 6: putting down, but I'm willing to bet that if I

841
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:52,680
Speaker 6: do a side bed Papa Achilles, Papa hamstring sprain, to

842
00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 6: ankles sprain until one of those is happening before the

843
00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:56,319
Speaker 6: thirty yard mark.

844
00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:00,719
Speaker 3: Bagged on the dog. Have you seen Joey Chestnut?

845
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,839
Speaker 1: He ain't no what track star because if he eats

846
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 1: Alost conservatively, Joey.

847
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:09,479
Speaker 6: Chestnut covers one hundred meters in like sixteen seconds. Okay,

848
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,560
Speaker 6: so he has to have a minimum of six second lead.

849
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:16,000
Speaker 6: He's gonna have a ten second minimum minimum. He's gonna

850
00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:18,880
Speaker 6: have a ten second lead. Because you saying ball is

851
00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:20,239
Speaker 6: not eating that that fast.

852
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:23,000
Speaker 4: He's gonna eat it in fifteen to twenty seconds, and

853
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:26,120
Speaker 4: Joey Chestnut's gonna win and do the thunderclap like in Jamaica.
