Speaker 1: nearly four hundred cities around America. Day two of Deshaun

31
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 1: Watson's arbitration. Hearing no news yesterday. It was a little

32
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: bit of information yesterday. But I'm waiting till the big

33
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 1: boys start to report on this. I'll let you know

34
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: what I find out. Still waiting to see. They're looking,

35
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: you know, everything's precedent setting. They're looking at what happened

36
00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 1: before Deshaun Watson, the NFL Players Association arguing on his behalf.

37
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 1: But here's the real curiosity I have. Let's say the

38
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 1: judge goes six to eight games. Well, they may say

39
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 1: there's not enough evidence. And let's say you're defending Deshaun Watson,

40
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 1: and you say, judge, would you factor in this that

41
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 1: two grand juries didn't find anything to charge him with

42
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 1: how can you have him be you know, get a

43
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: year NFL jail? So as a former judge, would you

44
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 1: sentence him to a year in football jail? And that

45
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 1: means he can't play. I'm just throwing things out that

46
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 1: could be brought up. And then does the NFL say, well,

47
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: we're going to appeal, and then you know what that means, commissioner,

48
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,079
Speaker 1: come on it from the bullpen. You close it out.

49
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: So he's now the new judge hearing the appeal. But

50
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:53,120
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson, it's day two and this will probably I'm

51
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 1: guessing going into a fourth of July weekend, just guessing

52
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:06,399
Speaker 1: maybe Friday news dump. Just throw it out there. I've

53
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 1: been down this. I've been down this road many many

54
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 1: times with the NFL. Yes, PAULI, unless you're the NFL

55
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 1: and you want to put it out there that you're

56
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 1: strong against violence or whatever you want to say, and

57
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 1: put it out there to get credit for sitting him

58
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 1: down a year plus. Let's say the decision goes the

59
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: NFL's way and they want the pr of this, then

60
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 1: you do it as soon as possible before the vacation week. Well,

61
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:31,919
Speaker 1: you don't know when it's gonna be heard. You don't

62
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: know when she's going to render a verdict, but I'm

63
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 1: saying if they can skew it to Friday at five o'clock,

64
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 1: if it doesn't work out for them, maybe they can

65
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 1: make it work for them. And the other way, when

66
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: they do want a year, they want at least a

67
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 1: year that they want to be tough on this. They

68
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 1: have to be tough on this. And the timing of

69
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 1: all of this with what's going on with women's rights

70
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: with Title nine, I think the NFL and the NFL

71
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: has said, hey, we cater to the you know, the

72
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 1: female audience that we have that what is it, forty

73
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 1: percent of their audience is women like you want to

74
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 1: crack down on this with Deshaun Watson, make a statement,

75
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: and you're not going to be satisfied until you get

76
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 1: at least a year with Deshaun wantson. Also, when you

77
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 1: factor all of this in with Baker Mayfield, I said,

78
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 1: at the time, people thought I was crazy, and I

79
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 1: might be, But if I'm Baker Mayfield and I'm the

80
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:22,280
Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns, and look, the reason why you structured his

81
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: contract the way you did is you thought he might

82
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: be suspended a year. But if you're going to have

83
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield, you know, you basically cut him loose. Can

84
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 1: you play nice with him? Could you just say, hey, look,

85
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,480
Speaker 1: we're sorry. You want to come in, You're gonna start,

86
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:43,280
Speaker 1: and you're gonna start on a team. That's good. You've

87
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 1: got a chance to showcase your talent, You're going to

88
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 1: be healthy, and then we will trade you whatever it is.

89
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 1: Even if he plays well, he's not staying. But they

90
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 1: already have embarrassed themselves with this trade, with everything they

91
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 1: gave up. I mean, imagine if this is a Trevor

92
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 1: Bauers situation, what if this is two years? I mean,

93
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: just you got to factor it in. You can't say

94
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: it's not possible with what has happened and what's at stake.

95
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: But if you say an indefinite suspension, okay, now we're

96
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 1: talking at least a year, can you get Baker Mayfield

97
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: to help salvage this well, Baker was in Oklahoma. I

98
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 1: think he's running a camp and he was asked about

99
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:33,279
Speaker 1: not being traded yet. You know, I think I got

100
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,280
Speaker 1: frustrated with it not happening before, you know, like mini

101
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 1: camp and all those things. But that's the stuff that's

102
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: out of my control, and so, you know, let those

103
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: things happen and fall into place, and so right now

104
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 1: just controlling what I can and join this. I was

105
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 1: curious about this question, or at least this answer, the

106
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: possibility of going back to the Browns. I think it's

107
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 1: been pretty obvious. The mutual decision on both sides is

108
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,359
Speaker 1: to move on. You know, I'm I'm thankful for my

109
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 1: four years in Cleveland. There's a lot of downs and

110
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 1: a ton of learning experiences that you know, all forever

111
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 1: keep with me. Then he was asked this question as well.

112
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 1: But I think a lot of people think if they

113
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,279
Speaker 1: didn't have a quarterback for the next year, but would

114
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 1: there be any chance of reconciliation there? No. I think

115
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: for that to happen, they would have to be some

116
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,840
Speaker 1: reaching out. But we're ready to move on. I think

117
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: on both sides it felt like there was wiggle room there.

118
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: And maybe I'm reading too much into it, because I

119
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 1: still think there would be a possibility for him to

120
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 1: come in, come back and just sort of make good.

121
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 1: You know, there have been times when players in management

122
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 1: or ownership did not get along. But if the players

123
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 1: were willing to accept him, back because the players want

124
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: to win. There's a lot of stake here with this

125
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 1: Cleveland team. It's a win now Cleveland team. And in

126
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 1: that division, where are the Bengals going to be able

127
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,279
Speaker 1: to do what they did replicate that last year? You

128
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,479
Speaker 1: don't know what's happening with Baltimore and Lamar Jackson's contract.

129
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 1: The Steelers got a new quarterback. Okay, we got our

130
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 1: chance here. Maybe we can do some damage in the AFC.

131
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 1: But I guess there's the possibility of that. But let's

132
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 1: say you're the Cleveland Browns and you find out that

133
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: your quarterback is out for at least a year, then

134
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 1: do you start to play nice? Jacoby Brissette is going

135
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 1: to be your quarterback if Baker Mayfield doesn't come back.

136
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 1: That is a courtesy of Sooner scoop dot com. All right, setan,

137
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: what kind of poll question do you have for me today?

138
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: Serena Williams is underrated, properly rated. Well, she was bounced

139
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: yesterday three sets at Wimbledon, and as it went longer,

140
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 1: it was three hours. She lost the first set, and

141
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 1: then when I saw that it was going past two hours,

142
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 1: and I'm going I don't think she can you know,

143
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,560
Speaker 1: at her age, just coming back and you know she's

144
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 1: turning forty one in September. I didn't think that she

145
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 1: could last. Just you know the physicality of that. I'd

146
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 1: say she's underrated, greatly uderrated. It's one of those careers

147
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 1: that you go, wow, man, it's almost over and she's

148
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: won twenty three Grand Slam events. She was so good,

149
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: like she had a run that was longer than Tiger's run,

150
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: and Tiger we looked at and we go, it's Tiger

151
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 1: against the field. It was Serena against the field. And

152
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 1: you were going to bank on Serena probably more so

153
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 1: than you would Tiger back then. That's how dominating she was.

154
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:35,680
Speaker 1: But she's out now, turning forty one, and the possibility

155
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 1: of winning another Grand Slam seems very, very very slim.

156
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 1: Maybe the US Open, maybe she says goodbye. But I

157
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:48,200
Speaker 1: do think she's underrated. Yeah, Seed, there's another one for you.

158
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: We have a little bit of a theme developing. But

159
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 1: Washington Commander's wide receiver, Terry McLaurin, he is properly rated, overrated,

160
00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:02,439
Speaker 1: underrated in terms of his pay to production ratio. UM

161
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 1: I I don't know if too many people have been

162
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 1: following that. That's a that's a big that's a big

163
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 1: payday for a dude that you're like, who, Well, because

164
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: you don't follow the commanders. And he's a really good player.

165
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 1: If that just said Terry McLaurin, you'd be like, I

166
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 1: don't know. He played for Providence in the seventies. Yeah,

167
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: he played in the Premier League. Yeah, no, Ohio State.

168
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: You know they all all those wide receivers there, blend in.

169
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 1: He's a very good receiver, very good. But I don't

170
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 1: know if anybody's going, hmm, let's talk about Terry McLaurin today.

171
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 1: Today's the day to day it if you're gonna he

172
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,600
Speaker 1: just got himself a big fat paycheck. How much does

173
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 1: he make? That stood out to me. Three years, seventy

174
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: one million. That's that's nice. Yeah, seems to be the

175
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: going right now with Tyreek Hill. I don't know what

176
00:09:53,640 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 1: Deebo Samuel's debo's gotta be like, wonderful, Yeah, it's wonderful, Yes, yes, yes,

177
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 1: fully so. Based off that response, he's either underknown or

178
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 1: undercovered because he does have the production, he doesn't have

179
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 1: the name or famousness. Well, they're not a good team

180
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,960
Speaker 1: now he hasn't had consistent play at quarterback, but he's

181
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 1: a good player. I don't know if he's an elite

182
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:25,199
Speaker 1: wide receiver, but he's good. And if you're Carson Wentz,

183
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 1: you're probably pretty happy that he's all signed up. If

184
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 1: you're a valued customer, you deserve a simple gesture of

Speaker 1: do we have set? We could do something off of

190
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 1: Draymond Green's comments about the Warriors are going to win

191
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 1: three out of the next four that's fun. Paulie will

192
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: take a pie to the face. How about this? Can

193
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: we reach out to Draymond and would you be willing

194
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 1: to take a pie to the face if you don't

195
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,719
Speaker 1: win titles in three of the next four years, how

196
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,679
Speaker 1: about in the next two, two in the next four years?

197
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,199
Speaker 1: How about then if they do win it, though, then

198
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 1: you have to get a pie to the face and

199
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 1: like their championship parade. That could be fun. Yeah, Well,

200
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 1: I'm one of the few people that was on the bandwagon.

201
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 1: So I'm going to recuse myself because there weren't too

202
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:27,719
Speaker 1: many people who thought Golden State was going to win

203
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 1: it all the distor Warrior, Yes I am, Yes, I am.

204
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 1: Can we start you going with the you had the

205
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 1: underdogs too? Yeah, they were like they were like the

206
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,559
Speaker 1: fourth favorite or something. Nobody thought I could do it.

207
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:41,679
Speaker 1: Nobody thought you could root for them this year. That

208
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,840
Speaker 1: you did, I could make a correct prediction. Yeah, like

209
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 1: you did it. Nobody thought called it. That's what I said.

210
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 1: As soon as they want. Nobody thought that I could

211
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 1: you know, guess that they would win a title. Oh

212
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 1: where's everybody now? I like how you get analysts who say, hey,

213
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 1: once we got to the finals, I told you Golden

214
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 1: State was gonna win, and go, wow, that is courageous.

215
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 1: That's incredible. Isn't that essentially sports talks like you pick yeah,

216
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 1: thirty teams throughout the season, like, well, I told you

217
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 1: in November that's what's gonna happen. And can we stop

218
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 1: with the Kevin Durant obsession Draymond? Can they move on

219
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 1: from Kevin Durant? You just won a title? Can we stop?

220
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:31,200
Speaker 1: Do we have Draymond Green talking about this. He's on

221
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 1: the Old Man in the Three. This is JJ Reddick's podcast,

222
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 1: and he talked about the Warriors against the Cavaliers. I

223
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 1: don't think the outside world gave Kevin enough credit. I

224
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 1: think if you came within our organization, Kevin was given

225
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 1: all the credit. But the reality is is, I don't

226
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 1: think that team wins another championship if Kevin doesn't come.

227
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 1: Now you may say, oh, yeah, but y'all won the

228
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 1: fourth one without Kevin, but they're a gap in there.

229
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,959
Speaker 1: Team started to figure us out. Would you guys have

230
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,959
Speaker 1: beat Houston? Yes, those two years without Kevin, Yeah, we

231
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: beating them for sure. That team was never gonna beat us.

232
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 1: It just was not gonna happen. At about the Caps,

233
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 1: then we would not have beat the cass coming back

234
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 1: around without Kevin. Ay, it just feels like it always

235
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,840
Speaker 1: goes back to Kevin, no matter what the topic is.

236
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 1: Bring it back to Kevin. Yeah, that's a big shadow. Huh. Yeah,

237
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:34,080
Speaker 1: you just won, like I'd move forward with it. I

238
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,680
Speaker 1: appreciate him though, giving Kevin duran is due his flowers,

239
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 1: giving him his flowers flowers, well, he's also part of

240
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: the reason why Kevin probably wanted to leave. Remember he's

241
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,839
Speaker 1: the one that got in his face. Remember that, dude,

242
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 1: would you just stop for a second. Yeah, god, oh,

243
00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 1: I guess the Knicks. The Knicks are back. They are back.

244
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 1: They finally found somebody who wants to play for them.

245
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 1: It's not a done deal. But Jalen Brunson, who his

246
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: dad just got hired by that. This is what happens

247
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,319
Speaker 1: in college when you go, hey, we want to get

248
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 1: your son to college. We're gonna hire you. Okay, the

249
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:27,119
Speaker 1: Knicks did that with his father, and so Jalen Brunson

250
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 1: it looks like he's going to be a I don't know,

251
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 1: top five paid point guard. The Knicks are back. Got

252
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 1: r J. Barrett, will trade Julius Randall. They got a

253
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 1: bunch of draft picks. They're back. Yep. I have the

254
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: poll question here. It is wait, wait till after the break.

255
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: Take a break here. We'll come back and we'll talk

256
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 1: about what happened with the Nets. I still think this

257
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 1: is a problem. I don't know why anybody. Everybody else

258
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 1: is going like, hey, go car Kyrie's back, so let's

259
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: move on. No, it's a one year deal. What could

260
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 1: go wrong? Everything? Take a break back after this, With

288
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: if I one out of the street and ask a

289
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 1: thousand people if they knew the following person's name and

290
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:57,040
Speaker 1: what they did for a living, Jalen Brunson or Terry McLaurin.

291
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 1: If I asked a thousand random people, thousand random people,

292
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,879
Speaker 1: not necessarily sports fans, who is the gentleman and what

293
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 1: does he do for a living? Name is Terry McLaurin.

294
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 1: His name is Jalen Brunson. I'm gonna say you're aware

295
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: of Jalen Brunson because you're aware of Luca. Because the

296
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:21,639
Speaker 1: Washington commanders, you weren't watching them. There was no reason

297
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,720
Speaker 1: even though the NFL is bigger. Unless you're fantasy person,

298
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 1: then you know, you know, maybe that's it, maybe fantasy

299
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,360
Speaker 1: football that they would know. Terry McLaurin over Jalen Brunson.

300
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody else is going to ask that

301
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 1: question today. PAULI dis guessing. Let's bring in Tim McMahon

302

303
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 1: I guess the Knicks are back, Tim. You just hire,

304
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 1: you know, a player's dad, and you could finally get

305
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,639
Speaker 1: somebody to sign with the Knicks. So this great news

306
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 1: for Jalen Brunson. I mean, it's absolutely great. Yeah. I

307
00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,720
Speaker 1: think it's great news for Jayden Brunson for sure. And

308
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: I do think you're oversimplifying things a little bit with

309
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,399
Speaker 1: Rick Brunson being hired his assistant coach. It's not like

310
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 1: he's a nobody. It's not like he doesn't have deep

311
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,200
Speaker 1: connections to the Knicks. And this is the reason, part

312
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,719
Speaker 1: of the reason that the Knicks were always considered at

313
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 1: least somewhat of a threat. Leon Rose, former power agent

314
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:20,200
Speaker 1: Rick Brunson, was his first client. He represented Jalen Brunson

315
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 1: on his rookie deal. Rick Brunson's known Tom Thibodeau since

316
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 1: Tibson's coaching at Salem State and Rick Brunson was at

317
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 1: Salem High. This will be the third time that he's

318
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 1: been on TIB's staff. But look, they're not getting Jalen

319
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 1: Brunson just because of all those ties. They're not getting

320
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 1: him just because they're saying, hey, you come here, the

321
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 1: balls in your hands. You are our primary playmaker, you

322
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 1: are starting point guard. You don't have to be in

323
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,120
Speaker 1: a shadow. They are getting him because they are going

324
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 1: to put more than one hundred million dollars on the table.

325
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 1: They are outbidding the matericks by a significant margin. And

326
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 1: you know, especially when you have the other factors on

327
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 1: your side, the money talks. Why is Dallas letting him go?

328
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:08,439
Speaker 1: Dallas let him go because, frankly, it got to a point,

329
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,120
Speaker 1: or it will get to a point since negotiations haven't

330
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:15,399
Speaker 1: started yet, where the money's just too much for the

331
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,160
Speaker 1: matters taste. I was told they were more than comfortable

332
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,879
Speaker 1: going five years for him. He definitely was probably the

333
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 1: number one going into the offseason. They felt like a

334
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,640
Speaker 1: fair comp was quote more than Fred van Vleet money.

335
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 1: So you're talking twenty two, maybe twenty three a year.

336
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 1: You know, five years, one, ten, one, fifteen, you're not

337
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 1: getting closed. I mean the Knicks might get get at

338
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 1: or near that point on a four year deal. So

339
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 1: and I do think that part of this is Jalen Brunson,

340
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,080
Speaker 1: you know, probably getting a taste of this during the playoffs.

341
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,679
Speaker 1: It's three games, Lucas sat he goes for forty one

342
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,120
Speaker 1: against the Jazz. He goes for thirty one against the Jazz. Hey,

343
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 1: I can run a show. And that's just that is

344
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 1: something that the Madis could not offer him. They're not

345
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 1: going to take the ball out of Lucas his hands

346
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 1: to feature him. He fit very well next to Luca.

347
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 1: But you know, you can't blame me, a young ascending player,

348
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 1: for wanting more for himself, both financially and in terms

349
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,120
Speaker 1: of role. Yeah, but the man's can't afford to have

350
00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 1: less talent surrounding Luca. You're absolutely right. And look, there

351
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: is no question this is a big blow to the Mavericks.

352
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,919
Speaker 1: They are losing the second best player from a team

353
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:28,040
Speaker 1: that just went to the Western Conference finals. And they'll

354
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 1: tell you, well, hey, we got Spencer Dinwoy. We expect

355
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,120
Speaker 1: him to be even better this year. Tim Hardaway Junior

356
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,720
Speaker 1: is coming back. But there's no spin. There's no way

357
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:37,879
Speaker 1: I can sit here and tell you this is not

358
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 1: a significant hit to the Mavericks. And in hindsight, and

359
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 1: frankly even in foresight, they should have gotten the extension

360
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 1: done with Brunson when they had a chance. If they'd

361
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,639
Speaker 1: have put four for fifty six on the table last summer,

362
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 1: he'd have signed it in a heartbeat. Rick Brunson told

363
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,800
Speaker 1: me during the playoffs that they went to the Mavericks

364
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,960
Speaker 1: in January and said, hey, you put it on the table, now,

365
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,440
Speaker 1: we'll sign that deal. The Mavericks waited until after the trade. Wait,

366
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 1: how much was the money for Tim? That was four years,

367
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,280
Speaker 1: fifty six million, fifty five point six million. It's the

368
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,159
Speaker 1: exact same contract. It was the most they could give

369
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 1: him on an extension. It was the exact same contract

370
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,440
Speaker 1: Dorian Phinney Smith's signed man that is, immediately after the trade.

371
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 1: That's fifty million less than what he's going to be making. Well,

372
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 1: and isn't Brunson happy that that didn't happened? At this point,

373
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: the mass made the calculator decision not to offer it

374
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:32,120
Speaker 1: to Brunson or Dorian Phinney Smith until after the trade deadline,

375
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,880
Speaker 1: because if a deal popped up for a Star, they

376
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 1: knew they were probably gonna have to include one or

377
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,920
Speaker 1: both of those guys. That deal didn't pop up, they

378
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,120
Speaker 1: got Dorian Finney Smith done, They're going to lose Janleen Brunson.

379
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:47,679
Speaker 1: So you can say that calculator risks certainly backfired. I

380
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 1: mentioned this yesterday. I'd been given a heads up two

381
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 1: days ago to keep an eye on DeAndre eight and

382
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 1: then the possibility he could end up with the Nets.

383
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 1: So I had my guys check and see what the

384
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 1: odds were, and they were asked no comicle that he

385
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,199
Speaker 1: was going to leave Phoenix and certainly end up with

386
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 1: the Nets. Then all of a sudden it went crazy.

387
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 1: The second best odds of landing DeAndre Aton behind the

388
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:11,680
Speaker 1: Phoenix Suns are the Nets. How are they going to

389
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 1: pull this off? If that were to happen. Is Ben

390
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:19,600
Speaker 1: Simmons expendable? I mean I would certainly say that he's expendable.

391
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: I think the question there is is that a risk

392
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 1: that the Suns are willing to take given the fact

393
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 1: this guy just sat out of year, He's coming off

394
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:31,159
Speaker 1: of back surgery. I don't know though, that there's a

395
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:35,159
Speaker 1: clear landing spot for DeAndre Aton right now. People thought

396
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 1: when the Pistons created that cap space, said, hey, that's it.

397
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 1: You know, the Pistons are going to put that max

398
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:44,640
Speaker 1: offer sheet on the table. That's not happening. The Pistons

399
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 1: have done. You know, they got Durham the center via

400
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 1: the Knicks in the draft. You know, they just used

401
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 1: nineteen million dollars to help the Knicks clear that cap space.

402
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 1: Taking Durlands no well, taken Ballot Burks. They don't have

403
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,919
Speaker 1: max cap space anymore. Certainly, the Nets have been men

404
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 1: as a potential sign and trade destination. I've heard rumblings

405
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 1: about the Raptors, you know, I've heard rumblings about the Spurs.

406
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 1: But you know, I can't sit here and tell you

407
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,120
Speaker 1: that I have a good feel on where DeAndre Ayton

408
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: is going. I'm not certain that he does. And you know,

409
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:22,199
Speaker 1: maybe the answer is the Sons resigned him and basically

410
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 1: he's back on you know, he's on the trade market

411
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 1: as soon as he's eligible to be talking. The one

412
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 1: thing I can't imagine as the Son's losing him for

413
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,880
Speaker 1: absolutely nothing. That would be really bad business. We're talking

414
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:36,040
Speaker 1: to Tim McMahon, he covers the NBA for ESPN. I

415
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,479
Speaker 1: think it feels like we moved on from Kyrie Irving

416
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 1: because he opted back in and I thought, no, like,

417
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 1: it's still this is still an issue. It feels like Tim, like, wait,

418
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 1: they didn't sign him to the max. He's back for

419
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 1: a year, maybe begrudgingly. You got Durant who's there for

420
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 1: four years. I don't know what my thoughts on your

421
00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 1: thoughts on Kyrie that he's back for a year. Is

422
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,240
Speaker 1: this a story that we move on from right now? Well,

423
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 1: I just appreciate Kyrie Darren to go in a different

424
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 1: direction by not volunteer to take a thirty million dollars

425
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 1: pay cut. I mean, what a revolutionary this guy is. No, Honestly,

426
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:20,360
Speaker 1: him opting in, I think probably increases the likelihood that

427
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,280
Speaker 1: you know that he can get traded because they sign

428
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,720
Speaker 1: and trade where he's signing a multi year contract at

429
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 1: max money. Who boy, that's a big commitment from another team. Now,

430
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 1: the fact that he is an expiring contract that you

431
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 1: can you know, if I'm the talent is obvious. Nobody

432
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:41,560
Speaker 1: ever his question Kyrie Irving's talent, but the Uh, you know,

433
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,399
Speaker 1: the desire to commit to him, given the lack of

434
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 1: dependability is frightening, and with him being on essentially a

435
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:52,399
Speaker 1: one year deal, now that isn't a factor. Certainly. I

436
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,320
Speaker 1: think the Nets have made it clear that they want

437
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:59,119
Speaker 1: to know part of a long term commitment. So I

438
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 1: certainly would not surprising if he ends up being moved

439
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,960
Speaker 1: at some point. I don't know if it's this summer

440
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,880
Speaker 1: or before the deadline. But no, that story's not over

441
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 1: felt like the Lakers were desperate. Are the Lakers desperate?

442
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:18,119
Speaker 1: I would say, when you have Lebron James who is

443
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:21,440
Speaker 1: still playing at the level that he has and you know,

444
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 1: knowing how much heat, how much pressure he puts on

445
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 1: a franchise to go all in for competing for championships, yes,

446
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 1: you're desperate. M you know again talking about difficult decisions. Oh,

447
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 1: Russell Russell Westbrook wants to make forty seven million dollars

448
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:37,360
Speaker 1: this year. Do you think anybody else is giving him

449
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:39,120
Speaker 1: that kind of money. Of course he's gonna of course

450
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:43,719
Speaker 1: he's gonna opt in. And that's not that's not the

451
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,680
Speaker 1: best route for the Lakers. Uh, you know, we'll see

452
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 1: if he ends the season in LA. They've got to

453
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,760
Speaker 1: figure out how to make that work. Um. Then I

454
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,679
Speaker 1: did laugh when Darbnham durned his opening press conferenceays we

455
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:58,160
Speaker 1: want we want Rush to get back to playing championship

456
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 1: caliber defense. I was, I'm trying to find maybe like

457
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 1: his high school film. I don't know when the last

458
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:06,399
Speaker 1: time he played championship caliber defense was Well, you're a

459
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:09,359
Speaker 1: little snarky here, Tim. I like it. I like it.

460
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: You know they there are people who with the Lakers

461
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 1: said that Russ refused to play defense last year, like

462
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 1: he gave no effort whatsoever. And you're bringing in a

463
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:20,800
Speaker 1: hard nosed guy in Darvenham. I know he said all

464
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 1: the nice things, but it felt like you got to

465
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:26,680
Speaker 1: say nice things before we ship you out of town.

466
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 1: I don't know what you can do. It feels like

467
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,320
Speaker 1: you're stuck with him at least this upcoming seat. Or

468
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,800
Speaker 1: you have to say nice things because you know, you

469
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 1: have to try to make this work. Because that forty

470
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 1: seven million dollar contract for a guy that you know,

471
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 1: if for us as a free agent, people would be

472
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,640
Speaker 1: interested in him at a at middlevel type of money.

473
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:49,120
Speaker 1: I think it's just going to be so difficult to

474
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:53,200
Speaker 1: move him unless it's a buyout situation. So you're Darwinham,

475
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,679
Speaker 1: you realize, hey, it's very likely this guy's on the roster.

476
00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 1: I really need to try to make this work. So

477
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:01,920
Speaker 1: you know the way to do that. It's not going

478
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 1: in and you know, being disrespectful and calling him out.

479
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:10,080
Speaker 1: But he called him out in a very polite, encouraging manner,

480
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: you know, by emphasizing the defense because you say, you know,

481
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:15,160
Speaker 1: people in LA last year said that Russ didn't even

482
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 1: try on defense. Well, guess what you can find people

483
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:21,639
Speaker 1: who said that in Washington and Houston and in Oklahoma City.

484
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:23,480
Speaker 1: I mean, there's a little bit of a print here.

485
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:29,359
Speaker 1: John Wall to the Clippers. It feels like, given everything

486
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,920
Speaker 1: that's happened at was one of those Oh and John

487
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:36,160
Speaker 1: Wall went to the Clippers. I like it if there's

488
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 1: not that much risk and maybe he has pride that

489
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 1: he wants to prove that he can play championship you

490
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 1: know style basketball. Here, how does this work with the Clippers? Yeah?

491
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,720
Speaker 1: I like it. And again, similar to us, nobody wanted

492
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,879
Speaker 1: to pay him forty seven million. But for that taxpay

493
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 1: the taxpayer of mid level about six and a half

494
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: million dollars. I think it's very good value. He didn't

495
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: play much for the Rockets, obviously, but in those forty

496
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 1: games he proved he can still produce. Now he's going

497
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,400
Speaker 1: to come into LA and obviously that's Kawhi Leonards team

498
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,159
Speaker 1: and then it's Paul George. What they've really been missing

499
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 1: is a is a playmaker, is kind of a table setter.

500
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 1: John Walt throughout his career has been one of the

501
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 1: best passers in the NBA. And you know, I think

502
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 1: that's the attraction for the Clippers. You come in, you

503
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 1: get a pure point guard. Now you know he's also

504
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:26,959
Speaker 1: used to being a guy who you know is a

505
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:29,239
Speaker 1: primary scorer. He's going to clearly have to take a

506
00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 1: step back as far as that goes. But he is

507
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 1: as healthy as a guy who you know is his age,

508
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 1: with his injury history can be. I think the fact

509
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 1: he sat out all of last year can only be

510
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 1: a benefit him. You know, he was working out, He

511
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:47,080
Speaker 1: gave him a chance to really focus on his body.

512
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 1: And again for six and a half million dollars, I

513
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,040
Speaker 1: think it can be a really good value signing for

514
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 1: a Clippers team that rightfully expects to be contenders this year,

515
00:28:56,200 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 1: and he changes with the Warriors, the question is how

516
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 1: many of their guys can they keep. Cavan Looney is

517
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:07,520
Speaker 1: the priority. There is significant interest in Gary Payton the

518
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 1: second around the league. I think Otto Porter Junior there's

519
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,360
Speaker 1: going to be interest in him around. And the thing is,

520
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:18,760
Speaker 1: we're talking about guys who and Wiggins Wiggins, I think

521
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 1: it's fairly like the an extension done. He'll certainly be

522
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:23,480
Speaker 1: back on the team. But you know, with the guys,

523
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 1: they're key complimentary players, the Looneys, the Peyton's, the Porters.

524
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 1: Every dollar they pay them, you multiply it by seven

525
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 1: because they're so deep into the luxury tax, so you know,

526
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:41,240
Speaker 1: they make a lot of money. Those championship runs generate

527
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:44,200
Speaker 1: a lot of revenue, but the most expensive payroll in

528
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 1: basketball history, and the price is only going to go up.

529
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 1: The craziest thing that could happen in free agency is

530
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:55,960
Speaker 1: what the craziest thing that could happen in free agency? Again,

531
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 1: I just is there a rumor out there that you'd go, Wow,

532
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 1: There's not one just off the top of my head

533
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 1: right now. But I do think that the Deandreaighton situation

534
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 1: that we discussed is by far the biggest wildcard. And

535
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 1: if you know, this is a guy. He was a

536
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,959
Speaker 1: number one overall pick. I think if you line him

537
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:20,320
Speaker 1: up next, you know the last two decades worth of

538
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 1: number one overall picks, he's somewhere in the middle. He

539
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 1: was a huge piece of a team that went to

540
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 1: the finals, followed up with having the best record in the

541
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: the league. And it doesn't seem like the Suns are

542
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 1: real interest in having him back. So that's a very

543
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,880
Speaker 1: unique situation. And and and he's young, coming off his

544
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 1: rookie deal. So if he lands somewhere else, I do

545
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 1: think he's a guy. You know, if it's a Toronto

546
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 1: for example, I think he's a guy that can really

547
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:50,840
Speaker 1: push Toronto into being a legitimate threat in the Eastern Conference.

548
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:55,280
Speaker 1: What about Zion, any issues of the Pelicans? Is there

549
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 1: a hold up? And what is the hold up for

550
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 1: signing him to the Max? Yeah? I think at this

551
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 1: point it's it's just about what's the language in the contract.

552
00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:07,800
Speaker 1: You know, you go back, for example, with Joel mb

553
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 1: coming off three rookie extension, that's obviously the comp in

554
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 1: terms of the talent is unquestionable. But you're worried about

555
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:18,719
Speaker 1: how many games he's missed the durability, So what's you know,

556
00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 1: what kind of protection can the Pelicans get inserted into

557
00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 1: the contract if he misses a lot of games? And look,

558
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 1: you know, Chris step Sporzingis was another example. The MAVs

559
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 1: maxed him out with no injury protection whatsoever. So that's

560
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 1: really the only potential hold of Zions made it clear

561
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 1: that he's happy to be in New Orleans, especially after

562
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:40,280
Speaker 1: the Pelicans paid the moves they did last season. The

563
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:42,960
Speaker 1: Pelicans clearly want to keep them, so you know, we'll

564
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 1: see what the language and the contract ends up. Looking

565
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 1: like always. Great to talk to you, Tim, Thanks for

566
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 1: joining us, appreciate your having me. Dan. That's Tim McMahon

567
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:55,240
Speaker 1: ESPN NBA reporter Todd in North Carolina joins us. Todd.

568
00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: What's on your mind today? Hey Dan, Good to talk

569
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 1: to you again. First, I have to stay Dobbs disclaimer

570
00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 1: being a tar Heel fan, but I'm just I mean,

571
00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 1: I can't pull for Dug players like Brandon Ingram being

572
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 1: from Chinston. But is there in your consciousness been anybody

573
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 1: like Kyrie Irvin that's been as much of a knucklehead

574
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 1: and sort of suppot stir that you can recall, well,

575
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 1: you had players that did things. Dennis Rodman did a

576
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:28,360
Speaker 1: lot of things, but for the most part he was

577
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 1: there for you. I mean, he had some stops along

578
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:33,960
Speaker 1: the way when he was in Detroit and that's before

579
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:38,040
Speaker 1: he became Dennis Rodman a brand. But with the Bulls,

580
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:41,080
Speaker 1: for the most part he was there. He did have

581
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 1: the time when he asked for a few days off

582
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:47,360
Speaker 1: to go to Las Vegas during the season with Phil Jackson,

583
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 1: but he seemed more calculated with the things that he

584
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 1: was doing. Kyrie, I don't know, like he'll have these

585
00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:02,680
Speaker 1: random quotes like you think he's Gandhi that you know

586
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:09,960
Speaker 1: he's mister Miyagi. I don't know. He's extremely talented. We

587
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:13,400
Speaker 1: say the same things about Kyrie. Oh, nobody's gonna argue

588
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 1: his talent. No, no one ever argues his talent, But

589
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:20,600
Speaker 1: we argue everything else about him. Is he a good teammate,

590
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,400
Speaker 1: he's not an alpha? Does he want to be a leader?

591
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 1: Can he be a leader? How much does he love playing?

592
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,480
Speaker 1: It almost feels like the game. There's certain athletes I've

593
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 1: been around. I didn't know if they loved the sport

594
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 1: they played, but they were so good at the sport

595
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:43,000
Speaker 1: they played. If that makes sense to you. I don't

596
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 1: know if Kyrie loves the game. I always thought that

597
00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:50,840
Speaker 1: he did, but he may just love the attention that

598
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 1: the game brings him. Yeah, yeah, I think he loves

599
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 1: the game. I don't think he loves the job, if

600
00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 1: that makes sense. I mean, everybody likes the money, right,

601
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 1: everybody wants to make of gajillion dollars playing a game.

602
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:07,040
Speaker 1: But I think he loves the game. I think he

603
00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 1: loves the craft, right because he'll refer to himself as

604
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 1: an artist as which you can I could see. But

605
00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:15,640
Speaker 1: I don't know that he loves the job of being

606

607
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 1: makes money off of the players, but he has to

608
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:27,360
Speaker 1: understand that the media is the reason why he's getting

609
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:31,600
Speaker 1: thirty seven million dollars and John Wall's getting forty seven million,

610
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,719

612
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:39,239

613
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,520
Speaker 1: you get it, Like because of the media, because of

614
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 1: the money that's spent the TV deals, That's why you

Speaker 1: Utah Jazz. Hardy played high school or college basketball at

666
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:02,240

682
00:38:56,920 --> 00:39:00,839
Speaker 1: is slowly emerging, maybe not slowly. After the Dodgers went

683
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 1: to Atlanta, Freddie Freeman going back home. Freddie Freeman, I

684
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:08,319
Speaker 1: think went back home and wanted to stay back home.

685
00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:12,360
Speaker 1: And he had this to say at his press conference

686
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 1: when the Dodgers went back to Atlanta, and he gave

687
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:19,400
Speaker 1: his thoughts on coming home. I think I'm crying so

688
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:26,480
Speaker 1: much because some of you no all of that happened.

689
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 1: So it's hard. Yeah, I don't know if there's gonna

690
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:39,919
Speaker 1: be apartment And I think anything about tonight, even even

691
00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:43,320
Speaker 1: tomorrow on Sunday, because tomorrow's crowd is gonna be a

692
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:45,920
Speaker 1: whole different crowd. Sunday's crowds gonna be a whole different

693
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:51,360
Speaker 1: crowd too, So I don't know. I don't know. I

694
00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:58,600
Speaker 1: was looking forward to today. I'm hoping it's Monday soon. Gosh,

695
00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:05,520
Speaker 1: this is a I thought that's the composed version of it. Yeah,

696
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:13,960
Speaker 1: just step out as a man. What I got emotional

697
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:17,319
Speaker 1: when I went back to ESPN after ten years, but

698
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:20,799
Speaker 1: not that emotional. I didn't even get choked up. I

699
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:24,800
Speaker 1: wanted to choke some people, but I didn't get choked up. Wow,

700
00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:31,480
Speaker 1: that feels like somebody who is regretting leaving Atlanta, right,

701
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:36,799
Speaker 1: you think just a little yeah, seton, he's cracking up.

702
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 1: I never that upset about anything. And my dad died

703
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:54,239
Speaker 1: when I was damn Yes. Then you follow that up

704
00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:56,239
Speaker 1: and he you know, he was obviously emotional for the

705
00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:58,600
Speaker 1: next few days. That Braves fans treat him like a king,

706
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:00,919
Speaker 1: like a returning hero. And it wasn't like the first

707
00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:03,799
Speaker 1: at bat. They gave him annovation everyone and every bat.

708
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:05,279
Speaker 1: It must have just hit him right in the face,

709
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:07,799
Speaker 1: like I think I made a huge career mistake after

710
00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:10,080
Speaker 1: being there a decade. Was the Dale Murphy of this era? Yes,

711
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:14,000
Speaker 1: he was yes, Yes, beloved Todd. Is there anything they

712
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:15,680
Speaker 1: can do to send him back to Atlanta? Seems like

713
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 1: the humane thing to do at this point. Play with

714
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:26,080
Speaker 1: the numbers that the humane, humanitarian and to send the

715
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 1: guy back to We got to put him out of

716
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:34,080
Speaker 1: his misery here. Be careful what your agent asked for there,

717
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 1: you know, and apparently fired his agents. So now he's

718
00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 1: representing himself. Was this a surprise to him? Did he

719
00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 1: have no say in what happened in his career? I

720
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:46,960
Speaker 1: don't know. If he went kicking and screaming to the Dodgers.

721
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,640
Speaker 1: It was Atlanta realized they weren't going to be able

722
00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:52,000
Speaker 1: to afford him. They reached out to the Oakland a's

723
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:55,839
Speaker 1: and they brought in who Matt Olson, who's a serviceable

724
00:41:55,880 --> 00:42:00,759
Speaker 1: first baseman, And that was like, okay, Freddie, thank you,

725
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 1: good luck wherever you go. Yeah, Paul, I'll tell you, though,

726
00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:07,280
Speaker 1: I would love to know the real backstory because Freddie Freeman.

727
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:11,120
Speaker 1: I wonder if his agency didn't tell him everything skewed

728
00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 1: him in a certain direction that they wanted. They land

729
00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:15,680
Speaker 1: their guy a big deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers.

730
00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:18,239
Speaker 1: That's good for the agents, for the agency, and you know,

731
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:23,359
Speaker 1: agents are creative and when they want to get what

732
00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:25,160
Speaker 1: they want, which is not always what the player wants.

733
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:27,239
Speaker 1: Did it just dawn on him that he no longer

734
00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,120
Speaker 1: plays for the Braves and he's with the Dodgers? Now?

735
00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:33,960
Speaker 1: I think where you you're convincing yourself that you made

736
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:37,840
Speaker 1: the right move, and then you go back and you go, wow,

737
00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:45,640
Speaker 1: I shouldn't have left. This is this is who I am,

738
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:56,120
Speaker 1: this is my place, this is my team. Man. What's

739
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:58,560
Speaker 1: the reaction going to be to Dodger fans? And it

740
00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:02,120
Speaker 1: comes to the plate? One hour in the books? Two
