21
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:14,680
Speaker 2: weeks ago. This was supposed to be ceremonious, right, the

22
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,320
Speaker 2: return of Chris Paul back to La.

23
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 4: He was emotional fans greeted him.

24
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 2: It was supposed to be the return of the Love

25
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,919
Speaker 2: City point guard and things have changed so quickly.

26
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 5: Right, that's right.

27
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 6: Paul Pierce has just beeny clips for having the worst

28
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 6: farewell tour INNA. Because, in case you've been living under

29
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 6: a rock, Chris Paul, where Rob g.

30
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 7: Where'd you get that from? Where'd you get that from?

31
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,119
Speaker 5: Get what what you just said?

32
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 7: Because that was actually funny.

33
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 5: I stole that from your joke book that you left

34
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 5: here in the studio.

35
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 7: No, I'm asking.

36
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 5: I'm just clever sometimes every once in a while.

37
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 7: All right, I'm in print.

38
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 6: So the Clippers are currently in Atlanta taking on the Hawks.

39
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,080
Speaker 6: Are actually up by six points right now middle the

40
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 6: first quarter. But in the overnight hours, at two thirty

41
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 6: am Eastern, to be specific, Chris Paul announced via Instagram

42
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 6: that the team told him to go home. You're not

43
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:16,360
Speaker 6: welcome here anymore. And according to ESPN's Sham Sharanya, Chris

44
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 6: Paul before he got sent home, had not been on

45
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 6: speaking terms with head coach Tylu for weeks because Chris

46
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 6: Paul and his quote unquote leadership style had been clashy

47
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 6: with everybody around. He's very vocal about holding management, coaches

48
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 6: and players accountable. You'll recall about a week ago he

49
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 6: put the literal definition for leeway on his Instagram story.

50
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 6: Very cryptic, long story short, Chris Paul is gone.

51
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:43,639
Speaker 5: He's at home.

52
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 6: According to the La Times, very few teams are intined,

53
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 6: if any, in bringing him back. So this Farewell Tour

54
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 6: not going the way we expected it would.

55
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 1: This is a lesson Calvin for all people out there.

56
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: You got to know where you fit in. Chris Paul

57
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: still thinks he's that dynamic guard from ten years ago,

58
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 1: and you know when everybody wanted his services and they're

59
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 1: gonna win a championship and when they were up to

60
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 1: all against the Suns in the NBA Finals.

61
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 7: Oh, he's a top three point guard of remember all that.

62
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I hate to break it to you, Chris Paul,

63
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 1: you ain't that anymore. And when you're not good enough

64
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: as a player, you can't be a jerk.

65
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:43,119
Speaker 7: That's what he was. Kelvin. I've been covering the league.

66
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 4: Since nineteen eighty seven.

67
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: When I talk to a lot of people around the league,

68
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 1: this is his mo right, calling people out, rubbing people

69
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 1: the wrong way, telling players, I'll get you up out

70
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 1: of here like he's a GM.

71
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 5: Just all that.

72
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 7: It comes as.

73
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: No surprise when you're averaging two points and you're not playing,

74
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: nobody wants you to be a squeaky wheel.

75
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 7: It doesn't mean that anything he said.

76
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: I'm about the team and the players that they've been.

77
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: They had an awful season. He's not the messenger. He's

78
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: not the guy to deliver that message. I don't care

79
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,599
Speaker 1: about the career how long you play. You're not playing.

80
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: You're not a veteran who's still starting the starting point guard.

81
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: You're not playing. You're averaging two points. Kelvin, you gotta

82
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: know better.

83
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 7: You have to.

84
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 1: I bring up the story all the time Fantasy Island.

85
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 1: I'm not equating Chris Paul to Tattoo, but I'm just trying.

86
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 8: To say, Okay, Tattoo was on a very popular show,

87
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:11,719
Speaker 8: Fantasy Island with Ricardo Montalbaum.

88
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,599
Speaker 7: He wanted Montalbaum money.

89
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: He went to the producers at ABC and demanded Montalbam money.

90
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 7: He's a little person with a couple of lines.

91
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 1: The plane. The plane is not gonna get you equal money.

92
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 1: You're not an equal star on the show. Did ABC

93
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 1: ben producers Ben Kelvin did they ben No, No, what

94
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,040
Speaker 1: they do They replaced them.

95
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 4: They said, all right, cool piece peace.

96
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:51,479
Speaker 1: And the Clippers did the same exact things.

97
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 7: He wasn't good enough anymore.

98
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:57,919
Speaker 1: You can't be not good or so so or bad

99
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 1: or whatever you want to say and think you have

100
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: the same clout as when you were a big.

101
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 7: Time star in the NBA.

102
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: I don't care about how long you played all that

103
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,279
Speaker 1: other stuff. There's a way of going about it. There's

104
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 1: a way of being a player's coach dealing with young

105
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 1: players passing along? Do you know what I mean? Not

106
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:21,359
Speaker 1: to be a distraction. And that's why Chris Paul, his

107
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: farewell tour got detoured and the bus went off the cliff.

108
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:26,919
Speaker 7: That's what happened.

109
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 4: Chris Paul, rob has lived long enough.

110
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 2: You know that old phrase, they say, you either die hero,

111
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,559
Speaker 2: you live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

112
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 2: I feel like Chris Paul the allegory of his NBA career.

113
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,480
Speaker 2: If you look back, he was the babyface assassin when

114
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 2: he was with the Hornets and maybe making that team

115
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 2: overachieve and battling against Kobe and the Lakers in playoff.

116
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 2: You're like, man, this kid is good and ends up

117
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 2: becoming the elite. Not only they call him a point guard,

118
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 2: that called the point god, and we thought of him

119
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,799
Speaker 2: as the ultimate leader, and he was gonna ultimately become

120
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 2: a Laker. David Stern says no to that, and then

121
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 2: he becomes a Clipper in Live City, as you know

122
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 2: you were here some of those years, becomes the sexy pick.

123
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 2: They were the eight team before the Warriors. People wanted

124
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 2: to you know, they're gonna win a championship. They were

125
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 2: fun to watch and it never manifested. But Chris Paul

126
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 2: then started to become It went bad with him and

127
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 2: Blake Griffin. You heard all those stories about them not

128
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 2: getting along, not getting along with this guy, him and

129
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 2: DJ getting into it, and then you hear about him

130
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 2: and Dot getting into it. Then he goes to other

131
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 2: teams and the teams are good because he's a very

132
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 2: good player, one of the all time greats, and they

133
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 2: always overachieved. You kind of thought, oh, okay, the Rockets

134
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 2: house is gonna work with him and Russell Westbrook. It worked,

135
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 2: he didn't get hurt. They might have went to the finals.

136
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 2: It worked with Oka. See, but all the other stuff

137
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 2: we would hear, how you would just grind people's gears.

138
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 4: He would wear on people.

139
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 2: He could never change, he would never evolve his style

140
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 2: as far as getting a wrong with people. They you know,

141
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 2: you hear stuff about telling ah, don't do what, coach haid,

142
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 2: do this, do that, And so it's remarkable to me

143
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 2: that a guy the first seven eight years of his

144
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 2: career was beloved, was one of the most entertaining, had

145
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 2: all the commercials.

146
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 4: He was Chris and Cliff Paul.

147
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 2: He was the guy became kind of the grumpy old

148
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 2: man and going to teams and they're not liking them

149
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 2: and things aren't going good. It's just been remarkable to

150
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 2: see that happen over the years of his career.

151
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 4: And you mentioned it.

152
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 2: You can be on a team and be a guy

153
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,320
Speaker 2: that's not necessarily producing, but still be a veteran presence

154
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 2: in guys respect you and listen to and but part

155
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 2: of you doing that is it's okay to evolve.

156
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 4: And it sounds like he never evolved. I'll give you

157
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 4: an example.

158
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,720
Speaker 2: Somebody who he was gonna be paired with, which would

159
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:44,959
Speaker 2: have been insane as far as the locker room was

160
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 2: him and Kobe Bryant. Kobe Bryant talks about he had

161
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 2: to evolve as a leader because the way his approach

162
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 2: was the first seven, eight, nine, ten years of his.

163
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 4: Career wasn't gonna get it.

164
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 2: You know, if he was trying to win, he had

165
00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 2: to find other ways to motivate, find.

166
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 4: Of the had He talked about, I gotta be in

167
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 4: with guys.

168
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 2: He talked about, I had to have these personal relationships.

169
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,840
Speaker 2: Guys are bringing in baggage, they were going through things

170
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 2: in life. I gotta tap in with the guy, not

171
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 2: just the player. And it seems like Chris never evolved

172
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 2: like he just the way he was. He's hey, we

173
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 2: runs hot, He's always, you know, on go, and that

174
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,199
Speaker 2: just seemed the rough guy, you know, a team guys

175
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,559
Speaker 2: around way so much so that the organization that brought

176
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 2: him back to kind of be the staple. This is

177
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 2: the guy Rob who was supposed to get this, the

178
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 2: first jersey up in this in the rafters of the

179
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 2: end to a dome. This was the guy who's supposed

180
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:33,680
Speaker 2: to be the first statue there. Right, this is supposed

181
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 2: to be bring him back. He was the you know,

182
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 2: our best years, he was our leader, and now it's

183
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 2: looking like that might not happen now it's looking like

184
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 2: that relationship is fractured. And last thing I'll say is,

185
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 2: at the end of the day, rob the Clippers gonna

186
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 2: clip the Clippers. You had Chris, Paul Blake, Jamal Griffin,

187
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 2: DeAndre Jordan, all these great players for years, got nothing

188
00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:00,560
Speaker 2: for it. You get a new owner spending money. He's great,

189
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:04,080
Speaker 2: he's enthusiastic. You start doing nothing for it. You get

190
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,680
Speaker 2: Kawhi Leonard, I'm not coming unless you get Paul George.

191
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 2: You get Paul George, you got Kawhi, you got James Harden.

192
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 2: Over the years, you got a new State Arena, nothing

193
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 2: to show for it. For all of this. If I

194
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 2: told you other guys that you have Paul George, Kawhi, Chris,

195
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:22,600
Speaker 2: Paul Blaker, and DeAndre George, Jamal Crawford, whom I missing,

196
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,199
Speaker 2: I say, James Hard I mean all these guys, Russell Westbrook,

197
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 2: and at the end of that run you have one

198
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:33,320
Speaker 2: Western Conference final appearance. The Clipper's gonna clip. Man.

199
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 7: Yeah, but they did the right thing here though.

200
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:41,319
Speaker 1: You can't have somebody disrupting, even in a bad situation

201
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: that they're in. You can't disrespect your bosses. You can't

202
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 1: disrespect the front office. You can't disrespect the other.

203
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 7: People you work with.

204
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 1: Dude, you should go go on Twitter and look at

205
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 1: all the ex players who play with him saying I

206
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 1: can't stand that guy, or like.

207
00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,839
Speaker 7: That's everywhere unbelievable.

208
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 4: Go look, go look. Let me ask you question what

209
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 4: I got one for this? This is the.

210
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:09,080
Speaker 1: Trail that was left. But when he was a star,

211
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 1: it's harder to push back on, you.

212
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 2: Know that, especially because he was a point guard, so

213
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 2: you viewed it as you know, leader.

214
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 4: He's got to be doing some riot. He's a leader

215
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 4: as a consummate leader.

216
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 7: Rob g.

217
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:19,960
Speaker 4: I want to ask you this to both of you guys.

218
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 2: If I'm just talking playing on the court, he's still

219
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 2: one of my all time favorite point guards to watch

220
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 2: and also just period like where he stands for me?

221
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 2: Do you believe what we've seen over the last ten years?

222
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 2: People called him dirty player? You know you see him

223
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 2: punching guys, album guys and the you know what, you know,

224
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,479
Speaker 2: just doing dirty plays, kind of becoming grumpy.

225
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 4: Do you think that has hurt his stature the player?

226
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,679
Speaker 2: Like the actually like where the rankings and where you

227
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:48,719
Speaker 2: know how people view because I feel like he went

228
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 2: from to Rob who said it top.

229
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 4: Three four point guard ever toy Like, Now, guys.

230
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 2: I heard the other day with a bunch of former players,

231
00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 2: they're like, yeah, he's like, you know, top seven eight, Nah,

232
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 2: maybe eight, you know, top.

233
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 4: Ten for sure. I'm like, wait a minute.

234
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,440
Speaker 2: A decade ago, this dude was top three four, you know,

235
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:07,880
Speaker 2: maybe five at the latest.

236
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 4: Do you think that's hurt him?

237
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 5: I don't.

238
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 6: I think that when you look at his resume, it's

239
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 6: up there with everybody not named Steph, Magic and Isaiah

240
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 6: like he has I feel like like eleven time all NBA.

241
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 6: He's been in the top ten in the MVP like

242
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 6: seven times, Like are you kidding me? Like Chris Paul

243
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,199
Speaker 6: and you mentioned that he's rubbed people the wrong way

244
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:35,719
Speaker 6: for a long time. Part of it was he kind

245
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,680
Speaker 6: of had to be that kind of player to get

246
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 6: the most out of his abilities, because you know, he's

247
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,200
Speaker 6: five to ten on a good day. It's like a

248
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 6: buck eighty, not super quick, not getting jump high, you know.

249
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,679
Speaker 6: But he was crafty and he was a bulldog and

250
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 6: did everything I.

251
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:49,640
Speaker 5: Do to win.

252
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 6: And it's funny that you mentioned these former players who

253
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 6: say that they don't think he's that great or.

254
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 5: That he rubbed them the wrong way. What do they

255
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:58,599
Speaker 5: all have in common? Everybody who said that, none of

256
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 5: them have wont anything. So maybe he.

257
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 4: Was doing what.

258
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 7: I'm gonna I'm gonna push I'm gonna push back on

259
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 7: that because he didn't win anything either.

260
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,839
Speaker 5: He won more at every spot he went to than

261
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:12,719
Speaker 5: but he.

262
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 7: Didn't win ultimately.

263
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 1: Ultimately, everybody and you remember this, wanted to crown them

264
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 1: when they were up too old with the son.

265
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 5: What if the Suns done since then?

266
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 7: Rob No, I I every.

267
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean just because you don't win doesn't mean

268
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 1: you can't have criticism.

269
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 7: I'm just saying I've heard it from too many people.

270
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, but all the people you've heard it for

271
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 5: didn't win.

272
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 6: Blake Griffin never want anything, never want anything, but want

273
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 6: anything like you can go down the list.

274
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 1: There are people, I'm gonna tell you, I'm not people

275
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 1: who have won in this league.

276
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,080
Speaker 7: Told me that a bad stuff that.

277
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 5: He's you say that on the air all the toime.

278
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:56,119
Speaker 2: No, give me name, Brady Quinn.

279
00:13:59,000 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 4: I'm not going to say who.

280
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 6: What I'm saying is yes, and I could see how

281
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 6: we would rub people the wrong way because he.

282
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:09,839
Speaker 2: Is he needed all the runs hot, all times that

283
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,319
Speaker 2: it would have been the scariest teammates to be.

284
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 4: They would everybody.

285
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 1: He would not have been sent home off on this

286
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 1: if they hadn't you think that it just happened last week.

287
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 6: But this is also the organization that disrespected Blake Griffin

288
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 6: his way out the door.

289
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 4: This is what he left.

290
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 6: This is a team that is allegedly gave Kawhi Leonard

291
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 6: like thirty million dollars in un mark bills behind the

292
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 6: back of a toilet.

293
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 5: Seat because they don't seem to be doing things the

294
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 5: right way.

295
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 1: That what you're doing, though, is clouding what Chris Paul

296
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: did for them to be able to send and he

297
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 1: won't be signed by anybody, nobody well because he's a.

298
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 5: Bake guard who can't move any forget it.

299
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 7: But after they but it could have been in a

300
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 7: nice sendoff and he ruined.

301
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 4: It's crazy to think that we're here, we will got

302
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 4: back here.

303
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 7: He got you say that, Rob g who wound it?

304
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 6: He ruled the Clippers did. The Clippers are five and

305
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 6: sixteen right now. Their couts in the Kawhi Leonard, James Harden,

306
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,800
Speaker 6: and Tylue. None of them have been a good leader

307
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 6: in any shape sense of the word. Kawhi is under

308
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 6: investigation for keeping money James James, Chris Paul off the hook?

309
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 5: How amNY off?

310
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 4: Here's Here's why. I think, Here's why. I think. Here's why.

311
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 2: I think the two things Chris Paul's demeanor, Chris Paul's

312
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 2: aptitude to want to compete, Chris Paul's making every organization

313
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 2: better on the on the court, I think he came

314
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 2: there and saw how they've been running and who they've

315
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 2: been signing, and I think, as opposed to just fitting

316
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 2: in on my last little hoorah, I think he came

317
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 2: in there and.

318
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 4: Disrupted, you know, like, Hey, this is how y'all do it? This,

319
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 4: why y'all signed, Why would y'all put this guy with us?

320
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 2: And I think they didn't like that, and I think

321
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 2: they're like, man, you can't come in here. We brought

322
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 2: you in here for the ceremonial, ride this thing out

323
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 2: with us. And I think he came in there, you know,

324
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 2: high strong on this is how you win, you do

325
00:15:58,000 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 2: it this way, and they didn't like that, And.

326
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 7: Wow, what is he? What is he won every team

327
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 7: he goes to, he's what is he won? Kel question?

328
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 7: He what did he win?

329
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 4: He hasn't won.

330
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 7: Okay, he didn't win anything. He just like the Clippers.

331
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 2: He didn't win and the Clippers didn't wind. What did

332
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 2: he win? He didn't win the championship. No, okay, absolutely not.

333
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 2: And that's a part of him.

334
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 1: Trying to crown him like he's coming in he's Michael Jordan.

335
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 1: He's telling you how I'm gonna win title averaging two points.

336
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 1: You're forty one years old, stopping You're not.

337
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 4: That's fine. I disagree with that part. I don't.

338
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 2: I think you can be a Juwan Howard Jared Dudley

339
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 2: guy on a team who ain't averaging nothing and be

340
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 2: a great leader. I'm agreeing that his approach probably was wrong,

341
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 2: but I think his approach was wrong, probably.

342
00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 7: As probably or definitely probably.

343
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 4: I'm sure.

344
00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 2: Let me take I'm sure Chris Paul, Chris Paul and

345
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 2: Tyron Lu didn't like it. Don't come in here telling

346
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 2: me how to run it. I'd have been running this

347
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,160
Speaker 2: team with an inter Kawhi injured James.

348
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,880
Speaker 7: What's the difference between Chris Paul and Tyronlu? What's the difference?

349
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:12,439
Speaker 9: Got ing?

350
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,359

357
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,320

Speaker 10: Hi, guys.

391
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,439
Speaker 11: A lot of thoughts here, A lot of thoughts, Okay,

392
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 11: Rob Parker, real quick, when you were talking about Jana

393
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 11: Sante to Coompo, how many times did.

394
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 12: You say it is so hard to win anything, It

395
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 12: is so hard to win a championship.

396
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 11: I'm just gonna point that out that you said that.

397
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:32,119
Speaker 11: As a Clippers fan, I have experienced many years of

398
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 11: nobody being held accountable on a roster, nobody being held

399
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 11: accountable when you're up.

400
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,880
Speaker 10: In a series and you can close it out or.

401
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 11: In a game, and we are not in a good position.

402
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,640
Speaker 11: We have started off like asked. We are not good

403
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 11: in any way, shape or form. And just because Chris

404
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:51,160
Speaker 11: Paul is forty and he's not playing at an elite level,

405
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:52,200
Speaker 11: why did you sign him?

406
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:52,399
Speaker 13: Oh?

407
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:53,840
Speaker 10: Yeah, you signed him so that.

408
00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 12: He could end his career as a Clipper and finish

409
00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 12: the season. You knew what you were signing, You knew

410
00:19:59,080 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 12: the type of player.

411
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,159
Speaker 11: I just say, he's been around forever, we know exactly

412
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:04,439
Speaker 11: the type of personality it is.

413
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:06,119
Speaker 10: And yet it could be that he rubbed.

414
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:07,639
Speaker 11: People the wrong way, But that doesn't mean what he

415
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:08,960
Speaker 11: was saying wasn't correct.

416
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,560
Speaker 12: Who's being held accountable for what the Clippers are doing?

417
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 10: And we have nothing to do?

418
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,160
Speaker 12: We are stuck for two years like this, Like it's

419
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,439
Speaker 12: frustrating to watch a team that was top ten in

420
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,360
Speaker 12: defense last year being the bottom five in defense this year,

421
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 12: when we are not getting any younger, We're only getting older,

422
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 12: and there's not much of a future for the next

423
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:25,840
Speaker 12: two years.

424
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:29,120
Speaker 11: It's frustrating, and I can see why Chris Paul was frustrated.

425
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,680
Speaker 12: And if he rubbed you the wrong way, suck it up, man.

426
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:33,640
Speaker 12: This is an awful start to the.

427
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 11: Season, and I really cannot believe that the Clippers may

428
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 11: not even get an opportunity to play in the play

429
00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 11: in this year, to play in the stupid playoffs, Like

430
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 11: I don't.

431
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 10: This was bad for the fans.

432
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 12: Now, why am I gonna go watch a Clipper game

433
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 12: if we're not gonna make the playoffs?

434
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:48,879
Speaker 10: Why would I go watch a Clipper game? Before? I

435
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 10: could have at least come to see.

436
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,840
Speaker 12: Chris Paul play five minutes and I could have cheered

437
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 12: for him because Chris Paul.

438
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:59,120
Speaker 7: Well, ain't nobody paying no money asking you to do that?

439
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,680
Speaker 12: Okay, nobody, what are you talking about? You're talking a

440
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 12: Clipper fan. You stop it, You stop it.

441
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 1: You're nobody paying five to see I would, Yes.

442
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 7: I would.

443
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,200
Speaker 10: I went to opening day just so I could see

444
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,640
Speaker 10: the last opening day for the for Chris Paul. I'd

445
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 10: never been to a Clippers opening day.

446
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 12: I went this year because I wanted to see Chris

447
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 12: Paul enter for the last time on an opening day.

448
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,120
Speaker 10: That's why I went so to say that people aren't

449
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 10: gonna do that.

450
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,920
Speaker 12: You're not gonna do that, Okay, but there are people

451
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,400
Speaker 12: that would have gone to see Chris Paul one last time.

452
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 1: Chris Paul in his situation MONTI is a time and

453
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:34,480
Speaker 1: a place.

454
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 7: You have to know where you fit in.

455
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:37,159
Speaker 10: Yeah, you do. I agree it.

456
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a way you're playing five minutes. There's a

457
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,640
Speaker 1: way of handling it. There's a way of talking to people.

458
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,120
Speaker 1: There's a way of talking to people. You could want

459
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 1: to make changes at Fox Sports Radio. If you go

460
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,679
Speaker 1: in and put and yell at Scott and don and

461
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:56,879
Speaker 1: tell them what they should do.

462
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:58,880
Speaker 7: I guarantee you you won't be on the air.

463
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,440
Speaker 10: Well, yeah, haven't been in the business twenty years. Of course,

464
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 10: I haven't been in an organization before that.

465
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 7: I took They do it. I don't care who you are.

466
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:07,720
Speaker 7: That's not the world.

467
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 12: So like sometimes like just because you're he's harsh, doesn't

468
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 12: he's not saying the truth.

469
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 10: It's almost like they just don't want to face the truth.

470
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:14,920
Speaker 10: So they got rid of him.

471
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 4: Well that's the thing. I'll jump in here.

472
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 2: This is the thing that's interesting about the Clippers is

473
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 2: Steve Balmer ain't fire and Steve Bomber right. We know

474
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,640
Speaker 2: that Lawrence Frank has had free reign and a lot

475
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:26,360
Speaker 2: of the decisions they've made have come to him.

476
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 4: They find a way to keep Norman pop.

477
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,400
Speaker 1: In a minute, they think this team was this team

478
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 1: a few times, had good teams ready to get Doc

479
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:37,119
Speaker 1: Rivers was the coach.

480
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,359
Speaker 7: And couldn't get it done. And he choked. How many

481
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 7: times did Doc Rivers.

482
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 4: When he was there?

483
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 1: They gave him multiple opportunities, So don't act like they

484
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:46,440
Speaker 1: weren't in position at.

485
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:47,159
Speaker 7: All or ever.

486
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 10: They choked right.

487
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 7: Down three to one, they choke.

488
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,880
Speaker 1: Look at Doc Rivers record that nobody's held accountable. They

489
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,760
Speaker 1: fired Doc Rivers after they gave him eight chances.

490
00:22:58,800 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 7: They did.

491
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 2: I'm saying they are getting chances that some other coaches

492
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 2: and gms don't get. I like Tyrone though you know

493
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 2: that we're both you know, think he's a good coach,

494
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 2: but you know, I don't know what he's gonna do

495
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 2: it as far as if he wants to continue to

496
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 2: stay around. In his message, I think he has been

497
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:15,679
Speaker 2: upset with how they've had to handle Kawhi Leonard.

498
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:16,200
Speaker 4: All these years.

499
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 2: I think I think he's really been more mad at

500
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,800
Speaker 2: that than anything. So uh Manzi, Yeah, you can, you

501
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,119
Speaker 2: can as far as we can hit us with the updates,

00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:49,159

Speaker 2: Swan swansong, Yeah, exactly, swansong, turning the Swan.

517
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:01,240

520
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:09,640
Speaker 4: What's up?

521
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 5: Hey?

522
00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:11,760
Speaker 13: How you doing?

523
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 14: Rob?

524
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:12,640
Speaker 15: And Calvin?

525
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 4: What's up?

526
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 16: Man?

527
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:15,640
Speaker 4: Do it right?

528
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:16,600
Speaker 17: Nothing?

529
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:16,880
Speaker 4: Much?

530
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 15: So I I agree with you. Rob you know, the

531
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 15: Clippers obviously were always clipped there, you know, just a

532
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,640
Speaker 15: just a just a snake bitting team with terrible luck.

533
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 15: But I don't like how I think Chris Paul gets

534
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,680
Speaker 15: brought in the discussions that like like it's almost above

535
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:34,640
Speaker 15: his weight class. Like I was, I was noticing Rob

536
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,040
Speaker 15: g when he was talking about how the Clippers need leadership,

537
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,119
Speaker 15: he brought up James Harden as like a lack of

538
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:41,680
Speaker 15: a leader. I feel like Harden has been has held

539
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:43,199
Speaker 15: that team on his front, on his back for the

540
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 15: last year and a half. What makes Chris Paul more

541
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,160
Speaker 15: of a leader than than James Harden is in terms

542
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 15: of a career, you know, I think that's the that's

543
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 15: the problem people have with Chris Paul is that he

544
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:55,199
Speaker 15: gets elevated into a class that he's never proven to

545
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 15: get himself into. I don't think he is Magic or

546
00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,959
Speaker 15: or Zeke or or Curry. You know that's taking my call, guys,

547
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 15: no doubt.

548
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 7: Yep, thank you, Jordan, appreciate it. I hear you.

549
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, he gets like he's done something.

550
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, listen to Chris Paul because he's won four championship. No,

551
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,440
Speaker 1: he hasn't you know how Frank in Los Angeles, Frank,

552
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,639
Speaker 1: go ahead, go ahead, Frank.

00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,879
Speaker 17: was the baddest girl in high school, you know, she

00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 14: down for Chris Fault for him to you know, think

580
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 14: he's better than everybody else and all that. But he's

581
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 14: gonna still go down as one of the top ten

582
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,720
Speaker 14: guards in the league. And he's right. Behrend stocked it

583
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:24,439
Speaker 14: in the whole time of fist and he's up there,

584
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 14: had another one of the thing. But I'm not trying

585
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:26,879
Speaker 14: to say that.

586
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:30,399

Speaker 1: and make suggestions to the boss and disrespect people and

594

596
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,680
Speaker 14: That's what I said. He crossed the land he should

597
00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 14: never did. Yet he would have had a place on

598
00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:59,280
Speaker 14: the bench if he had. He had it been more

599
00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:02,959
Speaker 14: humble and shows them who knows you. But gm man,

600
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 14: no doubt shall one thing. He traded Shay and Nia's

601
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 14: had one problem. I can another, all.

602
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:14,280
Speaker 2: Right, Mike, that's gonna be a thirty for thirty, right,

603
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 2: there trade and Shae five first round picks.

604
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 4: Now he's up there MVP and championships.

605
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 2: That's gonna That'll definitely be one that will be always

606
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:23,800

607
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 1: Tony in Miami, you're on the odd couple of Fox

00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 7: What's up, Tony?

610
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 16: Oh?

611
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 13: I just feel bad for Monci. I have some adavan

612
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,199
Speaker 13: if she wants to cal him down. I know it

613
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 13: was a little emotional for her, but I also feel

614
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 13: because I'm a Lions fan just like the Clippers. Both

615
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,119
Speaker 13: of those organizations are full blown. It's a curse. Curse

616
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 13: is a real word. It's a real thing. Uh. I

617
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 13: would say Paul going there and all that, it's kind

618
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:55,440
Speaker 13: of like spitting on an Applebee's burger and then trying

619
00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 13: to walk out of the tab. None of it could

620
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 13: end well. Other than that, I really don't see. I

621
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 13: don't see anything coming out of any of it. And

622
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 13: gambling rail reign supreme. So I'll leave it at that.

623
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:20,360
Speaker 2: Miami and we spending beer burgers and whatnot. Is be paranoid?

624
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,359
Speaker 2: Next time I go to Appleby's, i'ma be paranoid.

625
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 1: Now, he didn't say he worked there. Lee in South

00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 17: Thanksgivings?

630
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:33,920
Speaker 7: Oh yeah all doing?

631
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,880
Speaker 17: Man, thank you, thank you. I won't say this Chris Paul,

632
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 17: you know he knows basketball, thank you to say, well,

633
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 17: he probably trying to catch those on as a coach

634
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 17: because he know the game. You know how I played.

635
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 17: But if he can't play.

636
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,080
Speaker 13: It, no, most good back he used to.

637
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 17: But he could be a good coach. That's all I

638
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 17: wanted to say.

639
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 4: I appreciate the call.

640
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,080
Speaker 2: I'll say this rob the idea that everybody who does

641
00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 2: know the game, very intelligent, high Q, will be a

642
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 2: good coach. I don't think people it's not always about that,

643
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:06,880
Speaker 2: because what happens is, can you handle guys learning at

644
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,800
Speaker 2: a slower rate than you can you handle guys making

645
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 2: mistakes in the slow process of learning. Can you handle

646
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 2: you know, guys just aren't getting it, Like there's a

647
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 2: frustration everybody got. Everybody's not built to be a coach.

648
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 4: I'm not.

649
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 2: Maybe he will be, but I just know just because

650
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 2: somebody is a great basketball mind doesn't mean they're a

651
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:27,240
Speaker 2: great coach. There's a temperament. You gotta have the ability

652
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 2: to Washton. Hey, we lost a game. We got to

653
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 2: move forward because we've got eighty two of them. There's

654
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 2: a lot that goes into it to being a coach

655
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 2: and just simply oh so and so is good at basketball,

656
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:36,560
Speaker 2: or so and so knows the game, they can be

657
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 2: a coach, you know what I mean?

658
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 4: Like, I don't think that's always the case.

659
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 1: Cliff in Kentucky, you're on the odd couple of Fox

660
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:45,240
Speaker 1: Sports Radio.

661
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:46,040
Speaker 7: What's up, Cliff?

662
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 14: What's up?

663
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 16: Guys? Thanks for checking myself. I gotta go with Mante

664
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:54,960
Speaker 16: on this a little bit because there aren't fans out

665
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 16: there who's gonna pay that money to see Chris Paul.

666
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 16: I'm a big baseball fan. When I when I wanted

667
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 16: to go see my favorite shortstop ever, I paid money.

668
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 16: It wasn't as good as it used to be. But

669
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,960
Speaker 16: you asked for veteran leadership. Chris Paul's of a different era.

670
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 16: He's not this era, and maybe that's the way he

671
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,560
Speaker 16: got brought into the game. And maybe he's just rough

672
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 16: people wrong.

673
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt, And that's what I was started earlier.

674
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 2: I talked about evolving, like if everywhere he's gone, he's

675
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 2: just you know, got into it some people and some people,

676
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 2: you know, the intensity, there's I think there's all of

677
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 2: us can evolve a bit, and maybe there was some

678
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 2: of that that you would think he would be able

679
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 2: to do over the years.

680
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 4: Evolve a little bit.

681
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 2: Not changing the competitive is not changing one the desire

682
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 2: to win, but maybe changing approach.

683
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 4: Uh, And that's not the case. But here we were.

684
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 4: It was like they say, it was all good a

685
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:47,480
Speaker 4: week ago.

686
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 2: He signed, he's back, he's emotional, fans are excited now

687
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 2: he's gone. So all right, thank you for all the casts.

711
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,320
Speaker 1: Today's show all the way a point on why why

712
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 1: why they did what they did, you know, like go

713
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 1: out at least at least give them, give them some

714
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 1: They could have just said.

715
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,720
Speaker 7: Dude, you know what you cut whatever they took.

716
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 1: They flew all the way out there to try to

717
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 1: do it with some sort of grace, you know what

718
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 1: I mean? Seriously, like he's disrespecting people behind the scenes

719
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: reportedly and talking to people certain ways. Yea, and they

720
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 1: at least it at least flew out there to try

721
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:25,280
Speaker 1: to do it.

722
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 7: And that's a thing to do.

723
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 5: Bad respect for not giving respect. I appreciate that business hours,

724
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 5: I won't.

725
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 2: I don't buy the whole, the respect like the whole

726
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:37,640
Speaker 2: because if they're cutting me or cutting me, if you're

727
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 2: flying me whatever, and especially considering its supposed to be

728
00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 2: my last season.

729
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 4: But it is interesting, what the he because.

730
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 1: You know what, Calvin, you're such a phony. They called

731
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 1: them on the phone or text them, you'll be like,

732
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,320
Speaker 1: what kind of respectful that as you go played all

733
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 1: these years in the NBA. There's a way of doing it, man,

734
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 1: and they did it and got to make it.

735
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 2: This is clearly this is clearly nothing about class. This

736
00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 2: is clearly a bad meaning. If they called, if they

737
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:05,400
Speaker 2: called him faxed them flew down the fact that Chris

738
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 2: Paul is not retiring his final season as it was

739
00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 2: just announced recently with the Clippers. There's no way around

740
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,960
Speaker 2: as being an ISSH show like it is exactly what

741
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:17,440
Speaker 2: it is, no matter how so that part of it,

742
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 2: no matter how it happens.

743
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 1: I just yeah, it's a way time now for once

744
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,000
Speaker 1: we let you go, we'll just send you a text

745
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 1: and that'll be cool with you.

746
00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 7: Right is how it goes.

747
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 2: No, Rob the man literally just said he's retiring with

748
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:38,840
Speaker 2: him and now he's not. There's no way around that, Like,

749
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 2: how is that not gonna be a big thing regardless?

750
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 2: All right, So this one is dedicated to h We

751
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,240
Speaker 2: try to have a little fun here about some different things,

752
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 2: and this one I'm driving them away, getting where I

753
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:54,080
Speaker 2: gotta go. And it drove me crazy today that somebody

754
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:56,040
Speaker 2: kept trying to get by some folks and they were

755
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 2: doing forty five fifty. No one's really on the road

756
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:01,479
Speaker 2: and the left lane, which of course in most places

757
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 2: is the fast lane, and I couldn't get around them.

758
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:05,200
Speaker 2: Some other people were feeling the same way out there,

759
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 2: kind of got around them and then went in front

760
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:08,839
Speaker 2: of them, zoomed in front of them. So it got

761
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:10,839
Speaker 2: me annoyed, and it started to think about some little

762
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 2: bit of pet peeves out here. Which ones gotta go

763
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 2: Monty Rob Rob Alex. So I'll start with the one

764
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 2: I just said. People who drive two slows, but specifically

765
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,800
Speaker 2: in the fast lane, Like you know, you're not supposed

766
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:25,759
Speaker 2: to be in here doing fifty. It's sixty seventy five,

767
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,040
Speaker 2: whatever the miles power is. You know what we're doing here,

768
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:31,880
Speaker 2: all right? You got that one. People who chew loudly,

769
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,879
Speaker 2: people who are some people call it smacking. People who

770
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,960
Speaker 2: chew loudly? Are people who smack? What about the people

771
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 2: who talk during the movie. You're going the movie, you're

772
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:41,920
Speaker 2: locked in, you're excited seeing you get people talking a

773
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:42,640
Speaker 2: couple of rolls.

774
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 4: Ahead of you.

775
00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:47,120
Speaker 2: Or when you land and the plane just landed and

776
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:49,840
Speaker 2: they already stand up, and you got all people standing

777
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,320
Speaker 2: up over your head. We haven't even really finished taxiing

778
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:55,800
Speaker 2: yet you're already up standing up and standing in the

779
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:57,040
Speaker 2: way in the aisle.

780
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 4: Those are your ones? Gotta go? Pep edition, Which one

781
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:04,840
Speaker 4: is gone? Driving slow in the fast lane?

782
00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:06,799
Speaker 2: People who get up on the airplane and stand up

783
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 2: before we Dagner even really just landed. People who talk

784
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:13,359

789
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 6: the guy in row thirty seven, as soon as the

00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:38,120

Speaker 18: Dude's slow in the fast lane every day? You want

804
00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,080
Speaker 18: to know why why I comeute twenty four to seven.

805
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:07,440
Speaker 18: I have to tell you something. There is nothing more

806
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:10,680
Speaker 18: robotic than people driving in the fast lane going sixty

807
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:12,799
Speaker 18: miles per hour in the middle of the night. And

808
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:14,880
Speaker 18: then since I have to go around them and go

809
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:16,880
Speaker 18: back in front of them, they want to flash me

810
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,600
Speaker 18: with their brights to let me know that I'm infiltrating

811
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:20,759
Speaker 18: their commute home.

812
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 9: So guess what I do to those people?

813
00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:24,719
Speaker 18: Kelvin You probably with my breaks faster than I could

814
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:26,080

817
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:31,040
Speaker 18: I guess what they're not gonna do and moving forward,

818
00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 18: flash people with sprites when they're going sixty in the
