Of course, you know, 75 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 6: a big, tall, silly guy.

No, Lee, of course, 107 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 4: I think from the last Instagram post I saw from 108 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 4: his wife, I believe he's standing in front of the 109 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,720 Speaker 4: pyramids right now, game in Egypt. Yeah, I think that's 110 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 4: where it is, or it was. So where in the 111 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 4: world is Leelas the new carbon san Diego. He's the 112 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 4: international man of mystery for a reason. We got lots 113 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 4: to talk about here though today just a ton of 114 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 4: NBA content really to discuss. Trade rumors swirling sort of round. Well, 115 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 4: Donovan Mitchell, I mean that's still nothing's happened with that. 116 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:55,600 Speaker 4: We get t K's thoughts on that. We talked about 117 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,160 Speaker 4: in pretty great Teetholt last week. We got Russell Westbrook 118 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 4: trade rumors, we got Rerving trade rumors, and then we've 119 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 4: got a bunch of silly things like new jerseys coming out. 120 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,840 Speaker 4: I think the Calves just dropped new jerseys right the second, 121 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 4: and maybe we can get JD to get the tweet 122 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 4: of that while we're on the fly here. 123 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 3: But I turn around. 124 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 4: We really we'll do a deep dive on the Tyler 125 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 4: hero chest tattoo. 126 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: That chess Oh my god. 127 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 3: Oh if you're doing a deep dive, see if you 128 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 3: can find me cluss. 129 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 4: But let's start with the big news from late last week. 130 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 4: On Thursday, the Suns matched the Pacers four year, one 131 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 4: hundred and thirty three million dollar offer sheet for restricted 132 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 4: free agent center DeAndre Ayton. Okay, so this is clearing 133 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 4: the way for him to return to the Suns. They 134 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 4: had until I think it was like eleven fifty nine 135 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 4: pm Eastern on Saturday to match that. That offer sheet, 136 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 4: the largest offer sheet in NBA history, but they just 137 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 4: matched it basically immediately. It was like three minutes later. 138 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 4: And you know, some people surprised by this, and sure, 139 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 4: can they make this work because now he can't be 140 00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 4: traded until January fifteenth, and and he has to like okay, 141 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 4: any trade within the next calendar year. So when you 142 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 4: think about this, Sun's ultimately designed to keep them. 143 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 1: It is strange how they got there, but I do 144 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 1: think it's the right move when it comes down to it. 145 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: It's kind of like that couple you didn't think would 146 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,280 Speaker 1: work out, you know, they're button heads for a long time, 147 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: but they got together and they're going to be stronger 148 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 1: for it. I think. I don't think DeAndre Ayton, who 149 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 1: has been labeled sort of as a guy who's not professional, 150 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: you know, the last six months. The follow that game seven, 151 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: he only played seventeen minutes against the Dallas Mavericks. It's 152 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 1: been labeled this guy just plays video games and all that. 153 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 1: But he got signed to this contract by the Indiana 154 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 1: Pacers for a reason because he's capable. And I don't 155 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: think that signing an offer sheheet with another team burns 156 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 1: the bridge with his old team. I only I do 157 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: think it will make him stronger. I think he'll be 158 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: a little bit more professionally. He's gonna be any less professional. No, 159 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think he still could be 160 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: traded at some point. He still could approve it, as 161 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: you said, So. 162 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 4: They just couldn't let him go for nothing what you're getting. 163 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, And the Durant deal wasn't there. I don't 164 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 1: think that was available or else they would have made 165 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 1: that deal in a sign and trade or whatever. And look, 166 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: this is I think the best thing that they had available. 167 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: And if you look back offer sheets. They don't happen 168 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: a lot in the NBA or somebody else assigned, and 169 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 1: then the team that currently that has the players rights 170 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: retains him. But I look back to twenty fourteen, Gordon 171 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: Hayro was a Utah Jazz and he was playing well. 172 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: He got signed by the Charlotte Hornets back in twenty fourteen, 173 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 1: and the Jazz match that offer sheet. He came back 174 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 1: and played his best basketball of his career. He became 175 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: an All Star. Maybe he wasn't a number one like 176 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: DeAndre Ayden, isn't the number one, but he can play 177 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: with number two, number one, number two, with Devin Booker 178 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: and Chris Paul. I just think that at this point 179 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 1: it's the right thing, and I do think it'll make 180 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 1: him stronger. I mean, this is totally me projecting. He 181 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: could be a lousy player, I guess, but he's a 182 00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 1: seventeen to ten guy and he's a very solid player. 183 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: And yeah, again then Durant deal probably wasn't there. That 184 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 1: was their number one option. I would guess. 185 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 4: What do you think about Eaton staying with the Suns? 186 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 4: No problem like tasasan sort of run it back. I mean, 187 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 4: you had the most wins in the NBA last year, 188 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 4: you went to the finals year before that, what do 189 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 4: you think. 190 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 6: Obviously, DeAndre Ayton's good, but this to me is a 191 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 6: little bit of a what are we running here from 192 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 6: the front office and from the coaching staff and kind 193 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 6: of all of the executive class of Phoenix Suns out 194 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 6: there like Testa saying you can't let him go for nothing. 195 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 6: But you also didn't need to make it into an 196 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 6: adversarial thing only to match like literally right away. It's 197 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 6: interesting you bring up Gordon Hayward because even though he 198 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 6: did come back to the Jazz and he was pretty 199 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,679 Speaker 6: solid there, that kind of did burn the bridges with 200 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 6: Utah and that's why he left a year early, because 201 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 6: he got that offer sheet from the Hornets that allowed 202 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 6: him to get out of his contract a year early. 203 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 6: Different stuff for eighton, but clearly there's some sort of 204 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 6: animosity between Monty Williams and him, which is probably more 205 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 6: of a concern than it would be between the front office. 206 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 6: But they had to bring him back. Like we all 207 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 6: saw Businemack Biambo play well in the play or during 208 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 6: the regular season last year, we all saw JaVale McGee 209 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 6: have nice moments you're not rolling with those guys at 210 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 6: your starting centers. If you're really trying to win an 211 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 6: NBA championship, you need a guy more so like eight 212 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,599 Speaker 6: and and maybe tasses right, maybe they can mend the 213 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 6: holes in the relationships, get back on the same page, 214 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 6: and start winning a whole bunch of games. 215 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 3: That usually helps. 216 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 6: But also, like, there was no reason to have this 217 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 6: happen at all if you're gonna match right away. Yeah, 218 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 6: everybody knew he was coming back unless he was going 219 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 6: to be traded. The trade wasn't there. But now you've 220 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 6: got him pissed off. Surely some of the sons are 221 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 6: pissed off with the way that everything went went down 222 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 6: during the playoffs last year, during the offseason so far. 223 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 6: So it just seems like a lot of hassle and 224 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 6: a lot of stress to just bring. 225 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 3: Him back and hope that everything's okay. 226 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess it can go two ways. He can 227 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 1: either embrace the tough love for Monty Williams because I 228 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 1: think that's the relationship that's a bit of an issue 229 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,080 Speaker 1: or is there something going on there, Or he can 230 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: run away from it and all he has to do 231 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 1: is embrace it for a year and he can get delpe, 232 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: you know, sort of like Hayward left. I just think 233 00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: at this point of his career, he's not going to 234 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 1: fade away. And this is just me watching from the outside, 235 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 1: but I just don't think he's a guy who's just 236 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 1: gonna buckle under the pressure and run away and be 237 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 1: a bad basketball player or malcontent in that locker room. 238 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 1: I think it'll work out for both sides. It is 239 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: odd how they got here. It doesn't really make a 240 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 1: ton of sense. 241 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 4: What about the Pacers side of things too, Like, what 242 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 4: does this mean really for Miles Turner? I mean they're 243 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:21,959 Speaker 4: signing a center. 244 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 3: The trade block, you think so? 245 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 6: Feeling Yeah, I feel like they might still be interested 246 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 6: in trading him, But I don't know. They tried to 247 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 6: get a little bit better and then they would have 248 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 6: been easy to move off of Miles Turner. But surely 249 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 6: he'll get dealt at some point between now and February, 250 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 6: I would think. 251 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 1: So. I've would mentioned Miles Turner beyond the trade Block 252 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 1: more or Kenny Beacham coming on the show more. 253 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 4: It's close. 254 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,559 Speaker 1: It's close. Okay, it's very cool. I know you're keeping tracks. 255 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 4: We'll see, we'll wait for the Miles Turner trade news 256 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 4: that will happen hopefully soon. Okay on Friday, let's keep 257 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,439 Speaker 4: it going here. Like I said, we got tons to 258 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 4: talk about. The Spurs and forward Keldon Johnson agreed to 259 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,679 Speaker 4: a four year, eighty million dollar extension. Just for those 260 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 4: that don't know, Keldon Johnson played a lot for the 261 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 4: Spurs last year and played well. He averaged seventeen point 262 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 4: one points per game and shot nearly forty percent from deep, 263 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 4: like just under thirty nine point eight. So he gets 264 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 4: paid here, pretty respectable contract year twenty million per year. Tray, 265 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 4: what do you think about this news. 266 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 3: Basically getting those Dort dollars. Yeah, so I'm fine with that. 267 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 6: Definitely sticker shock, just like with Dort seeing eighty million dollars. 268 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 6: I think it was eighty seven for Dort, but eighty 269 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,319 Speaker 6: million for Keldon Johnson, a player that not a lot 270 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 6: of people know, but that's kind of the going. 271 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:30,199 Speaker 3: Rate for a starter. 272 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 6: And like you said, Skeets, he was really solid last year, 273 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 6: almost forty percent from three seventeen a game, so good 274 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 6: for him. He's making basically ten times more in salary 275 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 6: next season than he made this current season. As a 276 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 6: twenty ninth draft pick a couple of seasons back. He's 277 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 6: gonna make more next season than he's made yet in 278 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 6: his entire career. So shout out to him and shout 279 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 6: out to the Spurs, because the price could definitely go 280 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 6: up on Keldon Johnson. He's gonna lead him in scoring 281 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 6: next year with the Dejonte Murray trade, who led the 282 00:11:56,400 --> 00:12:00,440 Speaker 6: Spurs in scoring last year, Johnson was second. So Murray's gone, 283 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 6: Derek White their third leading scorer, He's gone. We could 284 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 6: be looking at twenty two a game easily for Kelden Johnson, 285 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 6: and then you know that would be a more expensive 286 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 6: contract for the Spurs, But right now they got him 287 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,959 Speaker 6: locked up on a pretty solid deal here, four years, 288 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 6: eighty mil, twenty per per season. That's tradable in the future, 289 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 6: or if he becomes a really, really awesome player, that's 290 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,440 Speaker 6: a great deal to have him on. So nice stuff 291 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 6: for the Spurs and for Kelvin Johnson. 292 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: Great name, Keldon, great player, great contract, and very well 293 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 1: liked in USA Basketball's program. Yeah, seems to be a 294 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: guy that sort of would fit on any basketball team, 295 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 1: and at twenty per now their highest paid player. Just 296 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 1: makes sense in that sort of that slot where they 297 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: can still put in a number one above him, like 298 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: a max player, and for this coming season, where he's 299 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: still making a minuscule three point eight million, they can 300 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: take on Russell Westbrooks contract or something of that sort 301 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: because they are paying no one. Doug McDermott is their 302 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 1: highest paid player at thirteen per so a good long 303 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: term move, but they're ready to tank and they are 304 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: willing to probably take on a contract. I assume this 305 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 1: is a weird version of the Spurs that we haven't 306 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: seen before. Right, This is not a team that's going 307 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 1: for it. Took a step back by trading to john 308 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: Ty Murray, but they know Kelvin Johnson can be a 309 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 1: support player for the hopefully the star that they get 310 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 1: in the coming draft. 311 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 4: I think he could be a sneaky pick for most improved, 312 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 4: he said, like averaging like twenty two per game, you 313 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 4: jump up like from seventeen to that. I get some eyeballs, 314 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 4: you know, if you're a, oh yeah, scoring that much. 315 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 4: And I think it's very possible, like like you said, 316 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 4: being like the main guy on this team, I think 317 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 4: he'll be in the mix there for an MIP. But yeah, 318 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 4: it's here from everybody on the Keldon Johnson, I'm with you, 319 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 4: Like he feels like the type of guy that's just 320 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 4: like you can really put him on any team because 321 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,679 Speaker 4: he's like because he can hit the three. You know, 322 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 4: he's a burly guy, gets at it. He plays a 323 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 4: lot early in his career. Here's only twenty two. That's 324 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 4: the other thing. He's very very young. And so this 325 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 4: is a great deal. I love this this move here, 326 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 4: and I think you're right task. I think they're going 327 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 4: to be one of these teams. The Spurs by all account, 328 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 4: it's like they're like, yeah, we'll take Hey, give us 329 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 4: a pick and we'll take whatever dumb salary, whatever you 330 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 4: don't want, Like, we'll absorb them because it's really just 331 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 4: them and the Pacers, right with a ton of cap space. 332 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 4: Now after the eight and got matched by the Sunset. 333 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: And they sort of did that with Josh Richardson. I 334 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 1: know it's different for Derek White, but Derek White was 335 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 1: long term money. Yeah, this is it's a new team. 336 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 4: Apparently Josh Richardson's on the block. Anybody can have him 337 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 4: if they want them. Pearl possibly as well, is a 338 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 4: center that if you know, you could see a bunch 339 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 4: of teams like it's like, Okay, we don't want Myles Turner, 340 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 4: we don't want to go that direction. Whatever Pearl is 341 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 4: going to be a lot more attainable probably or a 342 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 4: lot cheaper I guess to get. But we'll see what 343 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 4: spurs do here.

You know something 363 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 5: even like if you're gonna go that way, then go 364 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 5: that way. 365 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: But yeah, they killed it. It was a good time. 366 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 4: What else did they do? 367 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 5: They did Porcelain by the Red Hot Chili Pets. They 368 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 5: did super Fly by Curtis Mayfield. Lincoln was very nervous 369 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 5: about it. He was singing, this was very high. I 370 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 5: thought he killed it and what oh like a stone 371 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 5: audiously there you go, and uh they learned. They it's 372 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 5: a band camp. They show up on Monday. They picked 373 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 5: four songs and then they perform on Friday. So oh okay, 374 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 5: that's pretty fast. 375 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: And yeah, they love it. They turn that around in 376 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 1: four days. 377 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, four days, four songs. 378 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 5: Amazing, four songs in four days. Yeah. The bass player 379 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 5: is eleven. 380 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 4: Oh okay. I had questions about the bass player. 381 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 5: Like double clothing too, Yeah, like apparently he regretted his 382 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 5: choice the moment he showed up, Like he didn't get 383 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 5: the membo. They all were supposed to wear hats and 384 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 5: uh graphic teas, which every all the other band, the 385 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 5: rest of the band did, but this guy showed up and. 386 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 4: I would like describe I don't even know. 387 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 5: It was like rating my dead grandfather's cruise. 388 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 1: Wear you know. 389 00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 5: Who was eight hundred pounds.

And the base didn't help, right. The bace 394 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 5: was like, this. 395 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 4: Is why I was confused. I was like, is this 396 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:16,159 Speaker 4: an adult? 397 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:19,439 Speaker 5: A guy like on his knees pretending to be a 398 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 5: kid at this case, But that's Mason he killed anyway, 399 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 5: he's not not uh yeah eleven. 400 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:28,120 Speaker 4: Uh they're talented. 401 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah yeah. 402 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 5: This Friday they did they're doing it again. So this 403 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,879 Speaker 5: friend four new songs, four new songs, and they split up. 404 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 5: My kids they split up. Oh no, they're like, god, yeah, 405 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 5: we want we want to play with other people. I'm like, 406 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 5: you know what, this is good because I have to 407 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,199 Speaker 5: sit through four bands, so now two of them I 408 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 5: have a vested in. 409 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 1: So they split the band. Name that one great question. 410 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 1: We'll find that. 411 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 3: We will find that. 412 00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 5: The other thing is that that this band a lot 413 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 5: of horn players go to. But there were no horns 414 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 5: this week because mandatory practice for marching bands. 415 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 3: The last week in July. 416 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 4: Wow, they take it serious. 417 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 5: They take it very seriously here, so there are no horns. 418 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 5: So this week I think the horns are back. I'm 419 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 5: looking for you know, I love I love a horn. 420 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 1: Awesome. 421 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:27,399 Speaker 3: Hopefully somebody does careless whisper that was on the last horns. 422 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:31,479 Speaker 5: I was like pitching careless Whisper. Then then there were 423 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 5: no saxes. 424 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 4: So they're like, it doesn't hit quite the same. 425 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,919 Speaker 5: Rachel and I are insufferable just pitching music at these 426 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 5: kids and they're like, oh my good. 427 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 4: All right, okay, how did we get onto that? Oh? Yeah, 428 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 4: Jonathan Mitchell. 429 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 3: He loves he loves system of it down. 430 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's that's how we got there. What do you 431 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,439 Speaker 4: think it's likely that Mitchell ultimately ends up on the Knicks? 432 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 4: And if so, Trey, what's it going to take? 433 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 6: I think the Knicks makes the most sense. He's a 434 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,200 Speaker 6: New York guy. I think his dad used to work 435 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 6: for the New York Mets. I don't know if he 436 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 6: still does. Probably retired now that his son is in 437 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 6: the NBA, I would guess, But it feels like he 438 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,399 Speaker 6: wants to get to the Knicks, and it's kind of 439 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 6: felt like that for a while, So I guess we 440 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 6: just need to decide what they're willing to give up, 441 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,400 Speaker 6: because they're clearly in the lead. I think Fred Katz 442 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 6: broke it down as saying they basically have eight first 443 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 6: round picks, which they could change. That's a huge number, 444 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 6: and as Fred mentions, you basically get to keep one 445 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,400 Speaker 6: thing from your team, like the Jazz are gonna take 446 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 6: every little bit every asset you have except for one thing. 447 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 6: And it kind of feels like maybe they'll actually get 448 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,639 Speaker 6: to keep r. J. Barrett because Quentin Grunts seems to 449 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 6: be more of the target for Utah. So I guess 450 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 6: we're kind of just waiting to see if the Knicks 451 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 6: are gonna have a chance at Kevin Durant and then 452 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 6: they would move to Donovan Mitchell. I think I think 453 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 6: once it comes time to talk actual trades with the Jazz, 454 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 6: they gotta go after Jared Vanderbilt as well, get him 455 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 6: as a throw in, like you guys were talking about 456 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 6: last week. They're gonna need somebody who doesn't need the 457 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,159 Speaker 6: ball and can play some defense out on the perimeter. 458 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,199 Speaker 6: That would be a nice thing. So Knicks makes the 459 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 6: most sense to me. I don't know if it's the 460 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 6: smartest move to roll out two six one dudes as 461 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,199 Speaker 6: you as your backcourt. That being said, it feels like 462 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 6: Mitchell and the Knicks are a match made in New York. 463 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 4: And we saw Grimes and I guess uh McBride balling 464 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 4: at Summer League. They got to the finals, lost to 465 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,239 Speaker 4: the Blazers. Compared to the Blazers on their championship at 466 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 4: some got the rings and everything. 467 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,639 Speaker 1: The Blazers they shut down, Grimes, they went after double. 468 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 3: Teams don't come to the Western conferences. 469 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, stay over there in the East. Yeah, But 470 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,359 Speaker 4: any other thoughts on on Mitchell happening? Is it just 471 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 4: like at this point, it's like how many picks are 472 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,439 Speaker 4: they willing to depart with? And then yeah, is topping 473 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 4: in there as quickly in there as crimes in there? 474 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 4: Like how many of these young players? Is that where 475 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:42,120 Speaker 4: we're at here? 476 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: It feels like the Knicks have the lead amongst all 477 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 1: the teams in terms of their draft capital, and that 478 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 1: seems like what the Jazz want And yeah, they can 479 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 1: put it over the top of an RG Beard or 480 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:54,919 Speaker 1: maybe they didn't even have to if or maybe the 481 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 1: Jazz don't want them. 482 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 4: Well, that's what people say that they don't want to 483 00:20:58,600 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 4: have to pay RJ. 484 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,360 Speaker 1: Barrett right. Ultimately, Danny wants to, you know, start from 485 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 1: square one there, Danny Ainge and and Justin Zanik there, 486 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 1: I suppose, But the Durant issue is is lingering and 487 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,879 Speaker 1: those two are still you know, and they're on different tracks, 488 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 1: but you know, they're sort of on the on the 489 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 1: same path. Here kind of feels like Durant has to 490 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 1: happen first. And I feel like the Nets after trading 491 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:26,439 Speaker 1: a first round pick for Roys O'Neil from the Utah Jazz, 492 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 1: I feel like, if they could, they would reneg that 493 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 1: deal right now. Is there a way they could? Could 494 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 1: they say, Royce O'Neil's knee isn't that great right now, 495 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 1: and to take back the first round back. And I 496 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 1: bring that back. I bring that up because it almost 497 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: feels like they should be doing what the Jazz are 498 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 1: doing and just collect picks rather than go for it. 499 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 1: And I know they don't have their own picks, so 500 00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:50,120 Speaker 1: but that's a problem. But I do think that we're 501 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 1: all gonna be underwhelmed in terms of the players that 502 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 1: they get back for Kevin Durant. I think we're all 503 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: just gonna say, and part of it is because we 504 00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 1: saw what Rudy Gobert got and he obviously didn't go 505 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 1: for a lot a great great names in terms of players. 506 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:05,719 Speaker 1: But I think we're all just gonna say, that's just 507 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 1: not a great return for Kevin Durant. I think they 508 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: should they should restart instead of going after it with 509 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:15,920 Speaker 1: Roy O'Neil. Who's the other support player that they got, TJ. Warren. 510 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 1: That's a fascinating team there. 511 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 4: So you don't think we see a Mitchell trade until 512 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 4: possibly we know what the hell. 513 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 1: They're gonna happen within five minutes of each other. Wow. 514 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 4: Wow, well that'll be an emergency podcast for sure. 515 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 3: I hope it happens that way. 516 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 4: Yeah, will we split it up? 517 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,119 Speaker 6: You think, do its own your own KD podcast, your 518 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 6: own Donovan Mitchell for the numbers we should. 519 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 3: Space hopefully. 520 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 4: I just I actually disagree with that. I I I'm 521 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 4: starting to think too, like more and more that I 522 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 4: don't know is anything gonna happen with Durant here? Are 523 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 4: they just gonna like just everybody just relax during the 524 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,159 Speaker 4: summer here and we'll see in trading camp and then we'll, uh, 525 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,920 Speaker 4: we'll do this all over again, whether he's either he's 526 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 4: then committed to the team they have built or kept 527 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 4: maybe what's going on with Kyrie who knows, or then 528 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:00,119 Speaker 4: they look at trading him. But I think that this 529 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,480 Speaker 4: Mitchell thing, I think the deal is definitely in my mind, 530 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 4: it's been offered, and then you know, Danny Ainge is like, no, 531 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,160 Speaker 4: we want more, give us more and more and more. 532 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,639 Speaker 4: That's a classic age like thing, and that's fine, Like 533 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:13,399 Speaker 4: what's the real rush for them to be like trading 534 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 4: Donovan Mitchell and it'll just like they'll come to the 535 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,679 Speaker 4: agreement on whatever the players. But really, I've said this 536 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:20,879 Speaker 4: before to you. I think it's just all picks based. 537 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 4: That's why I don't think R. J. Barret is gonna 538 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 4: be in it. Yeah, these young players from the Knicks, 539 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,159 Speaker 4: like some of them are really promising they could turn 540 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 4: into something special maybe, but I think it's just they 541 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 4: want all they're probably asking for all eight picks, and 542 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 4: the Knicks would be silly to go that far. But 543 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:38,880 Speaker 4: I mean it's gonna take probably five six, it'll take 544 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:40,919 Speaker 4: a lot. So what you got for go bear if 545 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 4: you're sort of comparing. 546 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:45,159 Speaker 6: It to that, So what there was three plus swaps 547 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 6: for de Jonte Murray, right, Yeah, four plus swaps for 548 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 6: Rudy Gobert, right, and the pick from the twenty two 549 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 6: drafts sort of five like st five It seems like 550 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 6: a five Mitchell feels like a five to me, and 551 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 6: then a six for Kevin Durant. 552 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 1: Yeah. And the only thing that I think would make 553 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,919 Speaker 1: it happen a little bit faster is if they're talking 554 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 1: to the same teams, If Danny Ainge and Sean Marks 555 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 1: are talking to the same teams and they're trying to 556 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: outbit each other. They're trying to get the thing done. 557 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 4: Right right, But like like in the Donovan Mitchell sweepstakes, 558 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:17,679 Speaker 4: all we really know, okay, the knicks and then the 559 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 4: Heat's name always come up because it's like, oh, a 560 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:22,120 Speaker 4: star player is available. You know, pat Riley's gonna try 561 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,720 Speaker 4: and get them, but they just don't have any picks, 562 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,439 Speaker 4: So like, are they just scrambling to try and get 563 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 4: picks or another team involved and stuff like that. It's possible, 564 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 4: but like who else is in the Mitchell sweepstakes? Like 565 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 4: I've thrown out the Hornets, but we haven't heard any 566 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 4: report on that. Like, I think they just have the 567 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,160 Speaker 4: draft capital to make it happen, and I think he'd 568 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 4: be a star that they don't usually have to add 569 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,720 Speaker 4: to LaMelo. But are there any other teams I'm missing? 570 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:46,400 Speaker 6: I mean, the Nets are sorry hen into the mix. 571 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:48,880 Speaker 6: I've seen the Raptors thrown into the mix as well. 572 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 6: It's kind of if you're in the Kevin Durant sweepstakes, 573 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 6: you're in the Donovan Mitchell sweepstakes. Yeah, kind of automatically, 574 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,359 Speaker 6: just because you have the necessary assets to get into it. 575 00:24:57,440 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 6: But it definitely feels like the Knicks are kind of 576 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:01,720 Speaker 6: going to be against themselves. We'll see if they actually 577 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 6: bit against themselves or if this ends up being another 578 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 6: one of Danny Ainge's. 579 00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:08,360 Speaker 3: Almost hasn't trained almost so close. We almost got eight 580 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 3: first round picks. 581 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 4: We'll see. Let's get into the updown report, JD. Okay 582 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 4: for thumbs now, we got a new up down more graphic. 583 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 4: Jad's been busy this weekend. I like that one too, JD. 584 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 1: You're on fire. 585 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:29,960 Speaker 4: You're on fire man, great? 586 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:30,920 Speaker 1: Thanks good? 587 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 4: All right, updown report. You guys know how we do 588 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 4: this thumbs up or thumbs down on these topics. Here 589 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 4: this first one. Last week, the NBA board of Governors 590 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 4: approved a change that will impose a heightened penalty when 591 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,920 Speaker 4: a defensive player commits a transition takefoul. The offensive team 592 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,160 Speaker 4: will be awarded one free throw, which may be attempted 593 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 4: by any player on the offensive team in the game, 594 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 4: and they retained possession of the ball. Previously, the penalty 595 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 4: for a takefoul was like a common personal foul unless 596 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 4: you were in the bonus on the offending player and 597 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,360 Speaker 4: then just sign out for the offensive team. So you're 598 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 4: getting this free throw now anyone that can take it? 599 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,440 Speaker 4: Are you up or down on the NBA's harsher penalty 600 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:07,760 Speaker 4: here for take fowls? What do you think? 601 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:08,199 Speaker 1: I mean? 602 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 6: This is an easy up. People have been asking for 603 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,120 Speaker 6: this for years. I think it was Zachlow who said 604 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 6: this should be called the Jeff van Gundy rule. Maybe 605 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 6: it was Tom Ziller, one of those Z's, because nobody's 606 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 6: been more vocal about it than Jeff van Gundy. But 607 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 6: this was something that needed to happen. It's kind of 608 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:24,920 Speaker 6: been the case in FOEBA. They've tried it in other 609 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,919 Speaker 6: leagues as well. NBA want the easy route here. I 610 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 6: think a real deterrent would be, like you just get 611 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 6: a straight up free point. You don't even have to 612 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 6: make the free throw. We're giving you a point for 613 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 6: a take foul because players are still going to find 614 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 6: ways to make it look like you're going for a 615 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 6: strip or something. You know, these aren't going to be 616 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 6: blatant take fowls. So yeah, smart move. I don't want 617 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:45,719 Speaker 6: to give them too much credit. That should have been 618 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,439 Speaker 6: done quite a while ago. It's like I took out 619 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,880 Speaker 6: the garbage this morning, nobody cared. You know, that's what's 620 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 6: supposed to happen on Monday morning, right, What do you 621 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:55,200 Speaker 6: like tasks? 622 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,639 Speaker 1: Well, I like letter man Kelly Dwyer said it, and 623 00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:58,959 Speaker 1: I know you threw it out there. 624 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,239 Speaker 4: Yeah, I was tweeting about it. He had a I mean, 625 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 4: I can tell you right now he thinks like sort 626 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 4: of what I mean, he's saying it should be way 627 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 4: more stricter. So if you really want to get rid 628 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 4: of this, I guess it's gonna change all that much. 629 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 4: And what And really it's still like slowing down the game. 630 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:13,399 Speaker 4: Like we now we even know the free throw. The 631 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:15,159 Speaker 4: only person I know excited about that is Lee ellis 632 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:19,879 Speaker 4: uh and so Kelly wrote in his newsletter the second 633 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 4: arrangement that the NBA should award two foul shots and 634 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 4: the ball to any team fouled intentionally on the break, 635 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:31,119 Speaker 4: and the NBA should also let play continue after the 636 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 4: transition is sort of occurred. 637 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 1: Now. 638 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 4: I like that, Like that's what they do in football 639 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 4: when you think, like there's a there's a flag thrown 640 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 4: on the defense, the offense gets a free crack at it, 641 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 4: like free crack. I mean, you could do that and 642 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 4: then so that you know, obviously keeps the hopefully the 643 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,160 Speaker 4: highlight plays common and stuff like that. Like he's just saying, 644 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 4: you go get more aggressive with the with the penalty 645 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 4: that in Kelly's mind, you know this and this doesn't 646 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 4: deter the infraction maybe all that much, but we'll see. 647 00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:02,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I love the fast break. Continuing that that would 648 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,360 Speaker 1: be the primary thing, whether we get one file, two 649 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: foul the ball. It not only happens in football, where 650 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:10,399 Speaker 1: like let's say that you know there's a there's an 651 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: off side quarterback gets a free play, free shot at 652 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 1: the end zone. It happens in hockey where there's until 653 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:22,440 Speaker 1: the team that you know, maybe infraction touches the puck, 654 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:25,399 Speaker 1: the the other team can do whatever the hell they 655 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 1: want with the puck. Doesn't it happen in soccer too, 656 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,400 Speaker 1: Or there's an offside and it happen. 657 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 3: Play an advantage that happens in every sport. 658 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 1: Now why not basketball? 659 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,160 Speaker 4: Kelly's right because he's like Kelly wrote, what changed Now 660 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 4: the point guard walks over to take the friends you know, 661 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 4: the best shooter on the team goes and takes the point. 662 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 4: I mean it is a point you're giving up. No, 663 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 4: it is something so will players like, I mean, this 664 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 4: could be fascinating to see, Like, will they remember this, 665 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 4: you know, because I think it's like second nature a 666 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 4: lot of time. Totally stop the fast break, just grab 667 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 4: the guy and yeah, now it will cost you in 668 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 4: theory one point. Whoever's that goes in a tempts to 669 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 4: free throw. 670 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe one points not enough. 671 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 3: We'll find out. 672 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 1: They should be able to change it mid season, though, 673 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: which they don't. 674 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 3: Mid season rules change. They all have the basketball once 675 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 3: upon its time. 676 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 4: By the way, under this new rule, teams may commit 677 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 4: a takefowl during the last two minutes of the fourth 678 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 4: quarter and in the last two minutes of any overtime period. 679 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 4: So you can still do it nice without triggering the 680 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 4: heightened penalty. 681 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 3: Good for the purists, weird. 682 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 4: I think that would have gone under the radar a 683 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 4: little bit in the final two minutes. I mean because 684 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,280 Speaker 4: and it's said I did it, Like I was reading 685 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 4: about it on the NBA site, it said, this exception 686 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 4: in the final two minutes of the fourth or in overtime. 687 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 4: This exception will allow the defensive team to use the 688 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 4: long standing tactic of taking a foul to stop the 689 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 4: clock during an attempted comeback or prevent the opposing team 690 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 4: from potentially tying the game with a three pointer. So 691 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 4: I guess that's where. Yeah, so you can still do 692 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 4: it a little bit. But I think Kelly's right. I 693 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 4: think they could have been a little more aggressive with this. 694 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 4: But it's a step in the right direction. We'll see, 695 00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 4: all right. Next one. Russell Westbrook in his long time 696 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 4: agent Wasserman's Thad Fouche, have parted ways. We got some 697 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 4: agent talk here. In a statement to ESPN, Fouche cited 698 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 4: irreconcilable differences and suggested that there was no longer full 699 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 4: alignment with Russ. Fouche said he believes Westbrook's best option 700 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 4: is to stay with the Lakers, embrace the starting role 701 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 4: and support that Darvin Ham publicly offered the agent he 702 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:29,480 Speaker 4: had statements to Woes at ESPN. Here's what I think 703 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 4: he doesn't think that way. We're parting White. I mean, 704 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 4: he's been his agent since his entire season or career. 705 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, so I guess the question off this 706 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 4: is do you think are you up or down on 707 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 4: Westbrook playing for the Lakers at the start of next season? 708 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 1: Huge? Down. I don't think he's going to be there. 709 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 1: By the sounds of this, an agent who had been 710 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 1: there with Russ his entire career, as he said, made 711 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 1: lots of money with Russ, comes out and vocally says 712 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 1: Russ is making a mistake here, just frankly calling him out. 713 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 1: The fact that he was with him the last three 714 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 1: off seasons where Russ was traded each and every off season, 715 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 1: and now breaking with him at this point. I guess 716 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 1: you could say if you were if you're if you're 717 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 1: being negative about it, if you you thought that maybe 718 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 1: he's not gonna get another contract. So what does thatad 719 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: fouche care about about calling him out? But I don't 720 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 1: think this is good. Thank you for doing the research, by. 721 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 4: The way, well, I mean I think it's fuche. 722 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 1: Oh, I mean it's Canadian influence. Yeah, I was gonna 723 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 1: go Foucher. 724 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 4: Okay, I definitely went with the French angle. 725 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, I don't know, no idea anyway to me. 726 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 1: But he but the fact that he's been with him 727 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 1: and made so much money with Russell Westbrook and just 728 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 1: frankly just said no, I'm done with him, just parting 729 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:47,960 Speaker 1: ways with him. He's essentially saying that Russell Westbrook doesn't 730 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,719 Speaker 1: want to do what Darvin Ham said, which is not 731 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 1: be a superstar anymore, which is play off the ball 732 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: a little bit Russ, playing the dunker spot Russ. Yeah, 733 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 1: you can initiate the offense a bit, Russ, but you 734 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 1: got to play defense Russ. So his agents saying he's 735 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 1: not going to do that. So, yes, it feels like 736 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 1: he is done with the team. It feels like the 737 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 1: Lakers do not want to make him a superstar number one, 738 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 1: And his agent said he doesn't like the idea of 739 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 1: the Lakers attaching a pick to Westbrook for his you know, 740 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 1: the rest of his careers, the rest of his value 741 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 1: for his future contracts, that that would deter how much 742 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 1: money he's going to make right, So he thought this 743 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 1: is the best route. I don't want to trade Jeff 744 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:32,200 Speaker 1: or be involved in it in a fourth consecutive offseason 745 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 1: where you're dealt And it just feels like, now putting 746 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:39,440 Speaker 1: all the pieces together, we all thought that Russ you know, 747 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:41,760 Speaker 1: wouldn't be up for this, and now now it feels 748 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 1: like it's absolutely true. Because after the exit interviews where 749 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 1: he frankly he blamed Frank Vogel for not getting enough 750 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 1: of an opportunity when he was the starting point guard 751 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 1: and had plenty of opportunity, just feels like he's not 752 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 1: going to go out the way Carmela Anthony went out. 753 00:32:58,000 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 1: He's going to go you know, more of the iverson 754 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 1: and that's that's where we are. 755 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 4: Well, what do you think about all this? 756 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 3: This is crazy? The agent, Yeah, this is crazy. 757 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 6: You don't see You don't basically see an agent come 758 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 6: out and say thank you for all the money we've 759 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 6: made together. We negotiated some sick ass contracts back in 760 00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 6: the day. But you're watching it here and that's basically 761 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 6: what to me, Fad. 762 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 3: The big food Foch said. 763 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 6: Here, he's saying, if you're not careful, you're gonna turn 764 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 6: into John Wall, your contract right now at least has 765 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 6: more value than John Walls has in the past couple 766 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 6: of years. It's weird to think back that, like three 767 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 6: years ago, we have three terrible contracts, Chris Paul, John Wall, 768 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,120 Speaker 6: and Russell Westbrook, and you know we've kind of hit 769 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 6: like the three different levels here. Chris Paul went to 770 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 6: the finals, Westbrook is at least still playing, and now 771 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 6: John Wall is finally gonna be back in the league. 772 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 6: But he's saying, unless you adjust here, things are not 773 00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 6: going the way you think they're going. Russell Westbrook, but 774 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 6: it feels to me like Westbrook is not taking his 775 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 6: ex agent's advice. Feels like Westbrook wants out, and clearly 776 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 6: him and Lebron are not on the same page. I mean, 777 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 6: surely things are getting over analyzed with not saying hello 778 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 6: to each other at Summer League. But like Lebron is 779 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 6: friendly with the people who wants to be friendly to 780 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 6: and it's quite obvious when he isn't, and that's when 781 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:11,800 Speaker 6: it means you're gone. So to me, it definitely feels 782 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 6: like Westbrook will be gone before the start of next season. 783 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:18,439 Speaker 4: Well, according to l j Ellis of Spurs Talk, any 784 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 4: relation to Lee, We'll have to find out Lee Junior. Yeah, exactly, 785 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:26,320 Speaker 4: he says, and he's he's been right about things before. 786 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:28,400 Speaker 4: When it comes to the Spurs. According to his sources, 787 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 4: I guess the trade that is closest to happening involves 788 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 4: Kyrie being sent to the Lakers and Russell Westbrook being 789 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 4: routed to the Spurs to facilitate facilitate that trade, source 790 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 4: of tell me the Spurs want an unprotected first round 791 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:41,440 Speaker 4: pick from the Lakers. That goes to what you were 792 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:45,319 Speaker 4: talking about with san Antonio having space. Hey, we'll take 793 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:47,480 Speaker 4: a bad contract and we'll you give us a pick 794 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 4: and we'll do that new problem. So that's what l 795 00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 4: j elis Spurs talk has. 796 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 1: It sort of makes sense. Yeah, trade brought up John 797 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 1: Wall and Chris Paul and those are two guys that 798 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 1: Russell Westbrook has been traded for over the last year's. 799 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 1: Twenty nineteen it was Chris Paul and three picks for 800 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 1: Russell Westbrook. The next year it was John Wall and 801 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:10,399 Speaker 1: one pick from Russell Russell Westbrook, and then last year 802 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:12,040 Speaker 1: from the Wizards of the Lakers, it was this whole 803 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: five team jumble, and now it's going the other way. 804 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 1: I bring up the picks because now you have to 805 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,800 Speaker 1: attach a pick to Russell Westbrook right to get dealt. 806 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:20,440 Speaker 1: And yeah, there aren't a lot of teams we're talking 807 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: about the Kyrie Irving sweepstakes that want Kyrie Irving. There's one, 808 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,440 Speaker 1: it sure seems like, But I don't think there are 809 00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 1: any that currently want Russell Westbrook as as their starting guard. 810 00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 1: I'm not sure that there is. If it's the Spurs, 811 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:38,440 Speaker 1: it's it's strictly for dollars and there isn't a deal 812 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 1: like there was last year. It doesn't feel like where 813 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:44,360 Speaker 1: the team wants him to be their starting guards. So 814 00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:48,440 Speaker 1: whether it's Thad voucher or a Thad twoche or that, 815 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:51,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. It's a Thad voucher, 816 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,440 Speaker 1: like you have to you have to, you have to 817 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:59,759 Speaker 1: take you're asking for a voucher for Russell Westbrook at 818 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 1: this one. 819 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:02,360 Speaker 3: Year trade voucher. 820 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:05,839 Speaker 6: Yeah, if he if he doesn't Startingham asks it's it's 821 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 6: honestly different. 822 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 3: I think bad is right on this. 823 00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:12,319 Speaker 6: If he plays one season, if if he moves off 824 00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 6: the ball, if he cuts, and if he plays defense. 825 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 3: Right, the value is back. It ain't gonna happen and fad. 826 00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:21,800 Speaker 6: Uh, you know, working super closely with Russell Westbrook is 827 00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 6: probably like it finally turned around on me. I've seen 828 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 6: this happen with coaches. I've seen this happen with teammates. 829 00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:28,359 Speaker 6: I'm finally out. 830 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 4: I think Thad's just tired of like having to worry 831 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 4: about helping him find a new house and move, like 832 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:36,880 Speaker 4: everyone got to do that. Yeah, this should be his 833 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:39,799 Speaker 4: he Sad should be doing nothing during the summer. I mean, 834 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:42,719 Speaker 4: now he's every time this guy's getting traded. But yeah, 835 00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:45,360 Speaker 4: wild to see him, like with that statement saying no you, 836 00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:49,040 Speaker 4: he's basically telling everybody his plans like that he doesn't 837 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:50,440 Speaker 4: want to be there. And I'm with you to us, 838 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 4: I think it's pretty unlikely that he's going to be 839 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:54,920 Speaker 4: playing with Lebron. They're at the start next season. But 840 00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:55,840 Speaker 4: where's he gonna go? 841 00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 1: Where is he going to play? Because yeah, the. 842 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:01,839 Speaker 4: Forty seven point one, I think what he'll be making 843 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:02,239 Speaker 4: next to you. 844 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:05,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, the return has been picks, picks, and now you 845 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 1: have to attach a pick for Russell Westbrook. So it's 846 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 1: it's totally true he should be standing staying there. Voucher 847 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:13,719 Speaker 1: is correct. Fouche I'm sorry, I don't know. 848 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 4: Nobody knows, all right, next one here in the updown report, 849 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 4: Old School is back in session. Last week, the Spurs 850 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 4: unveiled their twenty two twenty three Nike NBA Classic Edition 851 00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:30,799 Speaker 4: uniforms that pay homage to the team's storied fifty year legacy. Now, 852 00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:36,720 Speaker 4: this iconic uni was made popular by the iceman George Girl. 853 00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 4: Oh the iceman got cut off there, Sorry iceman slice man, 854 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:46,400 Speaker 4: Spurs legend George Gervin There, Yeah, rocking those Trey upper 855 00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:48,760 Speaker 4: down on the fiftieth anniversary. 856 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 3: There, These are great, These look awesome. Yeah, very slick. 857 00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:55,040 Speaker 6: Hopefully they'll be allowed to wear gold chains just like 858 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 6: George Gervin was there. 859 00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:59,279 Speaker 3: I've got a little concern that the. 860 00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:02,160 Speaker 6: Monochrome, you know, like black words, black numbers on a 861 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:04,839 Speaker 6: black jersey. Maybe it doesn't show up great on TV, 862 00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 6: but it looks sick. So I kind of think that 863 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:12,399 Speaker 6: the Spurs are moving into their next genre of team, 864 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 6: their next era of team. Greg Popovich won't be there forever. 865 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:17,719 Speaker 6: Kelvin Johnson isn't going to be the high score for 866 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 6: all time. But whenever they finally do get to their 867 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:22,000 Speaker 6: next star, this has to be. 868 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:24,360 Speaker 3: A part of their rebrand. The black on black looks awesome. 869 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 6: We've seen the Fiesta things for the past, you know, 870 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 6: three or four seasons at this point, always a cool look. 871 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 6: But I really like this all dark look here kind 872 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:34,240 Speaker 6: of Johnny Casius. 873 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 3: I guess he's not technically. 874 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 6: A Spur or a Texan, but feels like it still 875 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:41,120 Speaker 6: feels like it feels like a Texan to me. 876 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:41,680 Speaker 1: What do you think? 877 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 4: Thumbs up or thumbs down on these. 878 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 1: Big thumbs up?

Yeah, that seems to be the look 1011 00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:55,160 Speaker 6: right now. I guess that teams are going for. It's 1012 00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 6: like a stark, very simplified look what you know, come 1013 00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:01,520 Speaker 6: look clear, not a court, but also can look a 1014 00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:03,680 Speaker 6: little underdone summer league. 1015 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1016 00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:06,680 Speaker 4: Fortunately, look at on top. 1017 00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:07,680 Speaker 3: This guy's the top gun. 1018 00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:11,000 Speaker 5: It just happened to have them from last time. 1019 00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:15,759 Speaker 1: Yeah. So now we're looking at the Jazz jerseys, the Bumblebees, and. 1020 00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 5: These are better than the Calves, I would say, I think, 1021 00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:18,840 Speaker 5: I agree. 1022 00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:23,200 Speaker 1: I mean it's close and it's Yeah, I think it's 1023 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:26,560 Speaker 1: a little unfair because we're not seeing the Calves full 1024 00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:28,960 Speaker 1: lineup while we're seeing the Jazz is full lineup. Fair, 1025 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:30,960 Speaker 1: you know, if you were just seeing the middle too, 1026 00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:35,320 Speaker 1: that's penny versus penny. Those are the overly simplified summer 1027 00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:38,680 Speaker 1: leak jersey versus summer leak jersey. I guess the Calves 1028 00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:40,120 Speaker 1: think they can get away with it because there's a 1029 00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:43,240 Speaker 1: Jumpman logo on them, you know, that's the most interesting 1030 00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:47,319 Speaker 1: part on these calves jerseys. I guess the nets. I 1031 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:50,919 Speaker 1: like the gold not on. 1032 00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:55,080 Speaker 4: Okay, let's get the simple a lot better than those. 1033 00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:59,960 Speaker 4: The photo of Tyler Heroes new chest tattoo enough shirt, 1034 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:04,759 Speaker 4: just no work, no check Now.

He 1171 00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:25,160 Speaker 6: averaged seventeen a game in D one and Lebron had 1172 00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:27,759 Speaker 6: forty two and sixteen and it looked like Lebron was 1173 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,520 Speaker 6: playing about thirty percent speed, which is just tells you 1174 00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:34,320 Speaker 6: the different levels there. Great attitude though from right. He tweeted, 1175 00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:37,160 Speaker 6: Lebron dropped forty and I had twenty For every two 1176 00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:38,799 Speaker 6: points he had, I had one. 1177 00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:39,960 Speaker 3: Awesome. 1178 00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:42,440 Speaker 6: That's really a once in a lifetime player. We had 1179 00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:44,759 Speaker 6: no NBA guys, they had two, and we only all 1180 00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:46,799 Speaker 6: lost by two. If Bron doesn't show up, we win 1181 00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:49,239 Speaker 6: for sure. I think DeMar de Rozen said the same 1182 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:50,080 Speaker 6: thing about the NBA. 1183 00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:50,960 Speaker 3: Once upon a time. 1184 00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:54,280 Speaker 6: DeRozan was a teammate there with Lebron for the Cheaters 1185 00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:56,759 Speaker 6: thirty and fourteen for DeRozan, looking forward to seeing those 1186 00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:59,160 Speaker 6: two guys on the Bulls in the future. Honestly, this 1187 00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:00,600 Speaker 6: was pretty cool to see Lebron. 1188 00:53:00,440 --> 00:53:01,839 Speaker 3: Showing the Drew League. 1189 00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:04,680 Speaker 6: People were packed in there a tiny gym to see 1190 00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:07,160 Speaker 6: the biggest star in the league. And as we've found 1191 00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:10,200 Speaker 6: out on Instagram, people just love pick up highlights. Oh yeah, 1192 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:12,479 Speaker 6: they love it, So this was really cool. The NBA 1193 00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:15,760 Speaker 6: obviously put the stream on their app. Yeah it worked 1194 00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:18,400 Speaker 6: for some people, but there were other ways you can 1195 00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:21,240 Speaker 6: see it as well, and so if you only saw clips, 1196 00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:24,200 Speaker 6: it was cool to see. And honestly, like Dean Wright 1197 00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:26,759 Speaker 6: was playing pretty hard against Lebron. It's like, damn right, 1198 00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:29,200 Speaker 6: if you had the guard Lebron, you better give it 1199 00:53:29,239 --> 00:53:30,839 Speaker 6: your all, even if you bust your ass. 1200 00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:31,360 Speaker 3: Who cares? 1201 00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:33,359 Speaker 6: At least there was Lebron who was busting your ass. 1202 00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:36,400 Speaker 6: There's a great tweet going around if Lebron showed up 1203 00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:38,240 Speaker 6: to your league, how many points. 1204 00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:40,200 Speaker 3: Would you hold them too? I was thinking. 1205 00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:44,440 Speaker 6: We play on Wednesday night. Yeah, we play up to 1206 00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:47,120 Speaker 6: eight by ones and twos. We usually play about seven games. 1207 00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:51,440 Speaker 6: We'd hold them the fifty six points. Yeah, oh okay 1208 00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:54,399 Speaker 6: two assists though to assists dished out to Calvin for three. 1209 00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:54,600 Speaker 1: Oh. 1210 00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:56,759 Speaker 4: Passing is most underrated, exactly right. 1211 00:53:57,360 --> 00:53:58,280 Speaker 3: That was cool though. 1212 00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:00,640 Speaker 4: It looked awesome. If you kind any of the highlights 1213 00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:02,239 Speaker 4: or saw some of the stuff of Lebron at the 1214 00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:03,200 Speaker 4: Drew League. 1215 00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:04,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, well I saw the tweets coming through that it 1216 00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:07,680 Speaker 1: was on the NBA app. Yeah, so yeah, of course 1217 00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:10,040 Speaker 1: I clicked the words the Summer any things to do? 1218 00:54:10,719 --> 00:54:13,799 Speaker 1: So yeah, jumped in there underneath all the Summer League 1219 00:54:13,880 --> 00:54:16,719 Speaker 1: games was that this Drew League game that you could 1220 00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:19,880 Speaker 1: just click on and jump into. And I didn't necessarily 1221 00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:22,440 Speaker 1: care about what Lebron was doing, but just the atmosphere, 1222 00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:27,200 Speaker 1: like anytimes an NBA player shows up to a pickup court. Yeah, 1223 00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:30,040 Speaker 1: that was a blast to watch there. The Damar getting 1224 00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:35,200 Speaker 1: into it highlights with his defense was angry, you know, 1225 00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:37,920 Speaker 1: he was obviously that that dude was giving it. 1226 00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:40,520 Speaker 4: His all a little too clapping right in his face. 1227 00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, so you don't do that to DeMar Deroz. And 1228 00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:47,120 Speaker 1: if you get under Damar skin like that, you must 1229 00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:49,400 Speaker 1: be doing something. Well. 1230 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:52,000 Speaker 4: It was a thrilling one o four one two game there. 1231 00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:54,640 Speaker 4: You would think the team with two NBA players would 1232 00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:57,440 Speaker 4: easily handle the Black Parl Elite. 1233 00:54:57,520 --> 00:54:58,719 Speaker 1: This is that was the plan. 1234 00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:00,560 Speaker 3: That was the plan. You think Ron wants to go 1235 00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:02,480 Speaker 3: in there and win a blow up by fifty. That's 1236 00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:05,840 Speaker 3: not fun. Bring it down into the final two minutes 1237 00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:06,279 Speaker 3: or whatever. 1238 00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:09,120 Speaker 6: We've seen Lebron. Lebron takes games off in the NBA Finals. 1239 00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:10,920 Speaker 6: You think he's playing hard for three quarters of a 1240 00:55:10,960 --> 00:55:13,160 Speaker 6: game in the Drew League. Come on, this was how 1241 00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:15,080 Speaker 6: it was meant to be. There was I don't know 1242 00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:17,040 Speaker 6: if there was betting lines anywhere. But if you thought 1243 00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:19,480 Speaker 6: this was going to be a ten point game, you're crazy. 1244 00:55:19,160 --> 00:55:19,720 Speaker 1: You're crazy. 1245 00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:23,160 Speaker 4: There was I don't know the guy's name. I think 1246 00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:25,160 Speaker 4: he was a white guy, like he Lebron on what 1247 00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 4: he dunked one? The guy jumped you see this, like 1248 00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:31,640 Speaker 4: he jumped and then in midair like he bailed, like 1249 00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:34,680 Speaker 4: down hould the parachute and like, yeah, arms down, I'm 1250 00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:37,160 Speaker 4: not getting done on. But everybody's like you should do 1251 00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:40,280 Speaker 4: the opposite, like you should be dunked on by Lebron. 1252 00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:41,920 Speaker 4: You should have went for him, and who knows too, 1253 00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:44,839 Speaker 4: Like you know, you get lucky and somehow block him, 1254 00:55:44,840 --> 00:55:46,560 Speaker 4: then then there's the highlight for life. 1255 00:55:47,160 --> 00:55:49,040 Speaker 1: But probably not blocking Lebron if. 1256 00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:52,040 Speaker 4: You probably not, but but get dunk. 1257 00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:55,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know you're you're not in a highlight. You're 1258 00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:57,759 Speaker 1: right in a highlight with Lebron James or not in 1259 00:55:57,800 --> 00:55:58,959 Speaker 1: a highlight with Lebron James. 1260 00:55:59,080 --> 00:56:02,800 Speaker 4: I'd pick right even if you again courses Lebron James. 1261 00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:03,799 Speaker 3: I don't know who it was. 1262 00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:06,680 Speaker 6: Had was guarded by Lebron and had a spin move 1263 00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:08,880 Speaker 6: and hit a nice fade away and the crowd went wild, 1264 00:56:09,120 --> 00:56:11,800 Speaker 6: Like I would have that on my phone showing people 1265 00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:13,840 Speaker 6: anytime I was near a basketball. 1266 00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:16,120 Speaker 3: Hey do you see this? That's me spinning on Lebron 1267 00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:17,680 Speaker 3: and knocking a jumper down in his face. 1268 00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:20,800 Speaker 4: Good stuff.
