14
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 1: The people want to know, Test. How did the Peach

15
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:52,560
Speaker 1: Tree Road Race go for you on July fourth?

16
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 3: It was very fun?

17
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 1: Okay, good?

18
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 2: It was very crowded. Okay, so there's my excuse for

19
00:00:58,200 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 2: having a slow time.

20
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,319
Speaker 1: Fifty five people run this race.

21
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, people on the way.

22
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 2: People literally you're running laterals, I mean you're running side

23
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:09,679
Speaker 2: to side around people.

24
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:10,680
Speaker 3: Yeah. They opped it.

25
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 2: Every single announce for somebody on the PA kept upping.

26
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,119
Speaker 2: The amount of people got up to fifty six thousand,

27
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:18,679
Speaker 2: the biggest ten K ever, but a super fun. You

28
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:20,119
Speaker 2: got live bands playing.

29
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 3: I'm not sold but the soul.

30
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:27,119
Speaker 2: You know, there's live bands everywhere. There's great signs everywhere.

31
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:30,119
Speaker 2: I'm grabbing bananas and neat nice. It was pretty fun

32
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 2: and the signs make it happen.

33
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 3: You like that?

34
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yes, just for a super boot exactly. Yeah, yeah,

35
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:39,680
Speaker 2: that was pretty fun.

36
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: Did you run any sprinklers? Oh yeah, yeah, perfect? Did

37
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,680
Speaker 1: you get blessed by the Holy water? Did you see

38
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 1: that no church out there?

39
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 3: Oh? Really?

40
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah? Great side carrier faster than Atlanta traffic.

41
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 3: Smile.

42
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 2: You paid for this. No one likes a quick finisher.

43
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 1: Hey well, okay, good stuff.

44
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 3: I finished.

45
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: Were you hurting the next day?

46
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 3: A little? Actually?

47
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 2: When I left, I I felt fine. But everything takes

48
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 2: time and you get it. Ride the Marta to get

49
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 2: out of there, so you know, from the five am

50
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 2: on a Marta to finally somewhere you're home, like you know,

51
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 2: at noon or something like I was. I saw curb

52
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 2: and I was like, okay, I feel good. I can

53
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 2: bounce over this. I felt like Trey Kurb as soon

54
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 2: as I stepped over it cramp, but I was totally fine.

55
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 1: Okay, well, congratulations, that is cool. All right, let's get

56
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 1: into some NBA news here. We're still waiting for Lebron James.

57
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 1: We could be waiting for a while by all the

58
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: reporting here, I don't know how long he's going to

59
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 1: drag this out. On Friday, and I know we touched

60
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: on this on the On the Drop podcast because I

61
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,239
Speaker 1: guess it had released that morning, but Lebron's agent, Rich Paul,

62
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 1: he put out a new episode of the Game Over

63
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: podcast with Max Kell, and that was where we got

64
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: the whiteboard shot where Rich detailed the teams that Lebron

65
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 1: is considering. There on the whiteboard, we're showing it to

66
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: you on YouTube, and he's listing ten and he's outlining

67
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:13,799
Speaker 1: what he sees as the pros.

68
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 2: And cons each potential destination.

69
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: So Rich did tell ESPN last week, quote, this is

70
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: the first time that Lebron is making a decision pressure free.

71
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,920
Speaker 1: He's one already. He's made good on his promise he

72
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 1: won in LA. This is strictly for happiness. What is

73
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: happiness entail? It's a number of things. It's a bucket

74
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: of happiness. It's basketball, it's living, it's camaraderie, it's competition,

75
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 1: it's everything. Again, that's Rich Paul. Now over the weekend,

76
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: the Timberwolves, we learned are making I guess you could

77
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 1: call it a unique pitch. Maybe a simple pitch is

78
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 1: a better way to put it. Hey, Lebron, come to

79
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 1: Minnesota and end the greatest of all time debate once

80
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 1: and for all. And this is according to the athletics

81
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 1: John Krishinski, who noted that the Wolves have just like

82
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: ramped up their push for Lebron and they have a

83
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 1: chance they think of landingam. But here's the quote that

84
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: what sort of made the rounds from Kristinski. The Timberwolves

85
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 1: have never won a championship. The Vikings and wild are

86
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 1: title lists as well. The Twins World Series winning ninety

87
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 1: one marks the last time in Minnesota men's professional sports

88
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,480
Speaker 1: franchise won at all, the longest drought among US markets

89
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 1: with all four major sports. So their pitch to Lebron

90
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: TK is like, come here, come to Minnesota, bring us

91
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: a title, which obviously it's been a very long time,

92
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:40,919
Speaker 1: and that will get you above MJ in the goat

93
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,679
Speaker 1: talk if you can get your fifth because the idea,

94
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 1: right is not all championships are created equal. So you

95
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 1: know we've second. Maybe the Calves title for Lebron felt

96
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 1: like probably more than one.

97
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 5: Take one. But anyway, what do you think of all

98
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 5: this Lebron's I mean, this is pretty funny. If you

99
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 5: come to our sad sax city and win a championship, you.

100
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 6: Absolutely must be the goat. There's no way around it.

101
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 6: Come to Minnesota and win. Please, after that, go to

102
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 6: Sacramento and do it again. I want to really be

103
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 6: the goat. I also, like Rich Paul said in his

104
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 6: whiteboard video, I guarantee you Coach Finch will have an

105
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 6: edible arrangement every day in his locker if Lebron goes.

106
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:23,719
Speaker 2: Oh none, I know, I know, but it's awesome.

107
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 4: That's awesome.

108
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 5: It's like there were questions if Lebron was going to

109
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:29,239
Speaker 5: retire this past season.

110
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 4: You know, they put the patch on his shirt.

111
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 5: He never made a declaration either way, and instead he

112
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 5: still gets to be the main character in free agency

113
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 5: by simply waiting a week. All these trades happen, all

114
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 5: these signings happen, Lebron isn't a part of any of them. All,

115
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 5: he says, is I'm going somewhere else. Rich Paul hops

116
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 5: on the internet does a whiteboard video, and now Lebron

117
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,600
Speaker 5: is the key to the off season once again.

118
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 4: And the longer that.

119
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 5: This goes, it's easier to talk yourself into literally any

120
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 5: place he goes, and also talk yourself out of any

121
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 5: place you go. It felt like Golden State was the

122
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 5: favorite five days ago, and now it feels like they're

123
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 5: completely left behind, right because Cleveland is his home and

124
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,479
Speaker 5: he's doing a documentary like it doesn't have any sort

125
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 5: of influence on basketball to me at all. This all

126
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:20,919
Speaker 5: feels like Lebron's storytelling at this point, so pretty funny. Apparently,

127
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,840
Speaker 5: mark Stein says Cleveland is the scenario to beat and

128
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 5: they might even try and get a roster spot open

129
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 5: so that they could sign Bronni if Lebron comes. It's

130
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 5: like every possible story you could tell about Lebron James'

131
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 5: career going into his potentially final season makes sense and

132
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 5: also doesn't make sense.

133
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I wonder him being spotted in Cleveland multiple times

134
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 2: in a summer is all afront? Is this all part

135
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 2: of the documentary that he is ending his career in Cleveland,

136
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 2: or is it just oh, we'll throw he'll get out

137
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 2: there in public, and then we'll make a left turn

138
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 2: and signed somewhere else.

139
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: Because this is the first time where he's going right

140
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,799
Speaker 1: now in this it's all a bit of a facade,

141
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: and just for obviously content play, it's hard to say

142
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: I could right if you couldn't know right now, of

143
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 1: course I'm going to Cleveland or maybe gold and say whatever.

144
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, And that's why I would. To me, it would

145
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 2: seem like a front, like I am turning, making the

146
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 2: left turn, going somewhere else, because this is the first

147
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 2: time in his career that we've seen him out in

148
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 2: public in the summer. I googled it trying to find

149
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 2: out if we've if he's been spotted multiple times in

150
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 2: a city where he apparently goes every single summer. Yeah,

151
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 2: so is this just hey, I'm I'm getting out here,

152
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 2: this is where I'm going, and then deciding to end

153
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 2: his documentary in a different way by going in a

154
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 2: different direction. It feels so logical that he would end

155
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 2: in Cleveland right right the book end. He's over forty,

156
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 2: so I'm sure he likes the routine of a city

157
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 2: that he knows instead of going to somewhere like Golden

158
00:07:55,880 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 2: State or Minnesota or you know, there's other other teams

159
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 2: on the docket, but this feels it feels so natural.

160
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 1: And it's also like it's the Cavs are not a

161
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 1: twenty five win team either. They were in the conference finals.

162
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 1: Like I don't know if I have them as suddenly

163
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 1: like jumping the Knicks or another Eastern Conference team if

164
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 1: he were to go back to Cleveland, but it's all

165
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 1: like they're bad. So it's like you could see it

166
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 1: at least the idea of them at least competing.

167
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,679
Speaker 2: If he goes Yeah, if he goes to Cleveland, he's

168
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 2: more like the guy who would win the championship as

169
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 2: the number one player. I know it's Donovan Mitchell's team,

170
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 2: but that's a lot closer than a Steph Curry or

171
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 2: a Nistead of Gumpo in Miami.

172
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 1: You know, it's a good point.

173
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 5: It's pretty seen as the savior once again, done this

174
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 5: doing the sequel.

175
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, is he the savior in Minnesota? Obviously, according to

176
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 2: John Krasinski, it is for the city. But Anthea Edwards

177
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 2: is the guy more.

178
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 1: He plays a part if he goes to one of

179
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 1: these franchises that have never won or obviously haven't had

180
00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:00,599
Speaker 1: a lot of success. You know, you said Sacramento, Okay, Atlanta.

181
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 1: You know there are teams that have got a very

182
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 1: long time the Suns have never won, stuff like that.

183
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean the Fitt in Minnesota. There's a spot,

184
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 1: there's a ropot ye, a natural spot for him to play.

185
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 1: Tough to wrap your head around, like, really, three super

186
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: ball dominant guys there. LaMelo wants the ball, should have

187
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 1: the ball. There is ant They got to figure that

188
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 1: part out. And then Lebron, you know, despite getting up

189
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 1: there in age, still has the ball in his hands

190
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:26,560
Speaker 1: a lot and wants to sort of operate.

191
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 3: So so many characters.

192
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 2: You got a Rudy, you got a Labello, you got

193
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 2: an Anthony Edwards, and a Lebron. You're full of them.

194
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: How about this idea from Travis who wrote into us

195
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 1: over the weekend about Lebron. He said, Lebron James going

196
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: to be a free agent if the NBA gave him

197
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,719
Speaker 1: a special exemption. I would love to see him play

198
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 1: home games with every NBA team. This would be the

199
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 1: absolute peak of player empowerment. Theater a thirty city single

200
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 1: season Mercenary tour. Mathematically, it works out beautifully. Thirty teams

201
00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 1: in the NBA, he plays exactly two home games for

202
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 1: every f franchise. That's a sixty game season for him.

203
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 1: Using the twenty five to twenty six campaign as an example,

204
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 1: which ran from October to April, it gives the forty

205
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: one year old Lebron plenty of rest days between city swaps.

206
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,559
Speaker 1: To keep him from spending the entire season on an airplane,

207
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 1: the NBA schedule makers would have to regionalize the tour,

208
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 1: and then Travis went through how it would look like

209
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: every phase, Like he starts on the West coast and

210
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 1: he makes his way to this area. It was pretty funny. Yeah,

211
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 1: the reaction to this, Yeah, why not right at this point,

212
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:32,560
Speaker 1: there's your documentary right there.

213
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean Travis Kelcey riding in the weekend of

214
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,440
Speaker 5: his wedding to ask about Lebron. This is the poll

215
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 5: that this guy has. Pretty incredible stuff. I also heard

216
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,319
Speaker 5: Simmons pitching basically the Roger Clemens plan, like I'm not

217
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 5: going to sign until February, then pick a team and

218
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,959
Speaker 5: get ready for a playoff run. Fun to think about,

219
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 5: but then you also think about Lebron at the start

220
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 5: of this past season as the first time he's ever

221
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 5: missed the start of a season.

222
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 4: He hated it. Yeah, and it took him a while

223
00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 4: to kind of get in the swing of things as well.

224
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: And what did Rich Paul say, camaraderie, You need a

225
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,359
Speaker 1: full season, I think to prison camaraderie and even the preseason,

226
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 1: so probably, Yeah, I did hear that idea too. They

227
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: were and somebody even wrote in on the Simmons podcast

228
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,560
Speaker 1: like Lebron should just wait to see who wins the

229
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 1: NBA Cup and then that, in addition to the trophy

230
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,480
Speaker 1: and the extra money you get Lebron on your team,

231
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: just up the stakes for the NBA Cup. You're playing

232
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 1: for Lebron.

233
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 2: It's a great honor.

234
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,199
Speaker 1: No bad ideas right now, this is our whiteboard. Put

235
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 1: everything up there.

236
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 5: I mean literally the Dallas one said, golf, oil, Macau.

237
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 4: And Africa.

238
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 5: I know why he might possibly sign with the MAVs,

239
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 5: like literally zero basketball, but there's some good off court

240
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 5: opportunities including oil.

241
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's going to get his money in oil, golfing, Okay,

242
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 2: that makes sense, sure, sure, Macau.

243
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:00,400
Speaker 1: And then Messia Jerry I think is the Africa?

244
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:05,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean he is is worldly. I mean,

245
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,319
Speaker 2: he does have the trains.

246
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 1: Right, you can start to touch yourself.

247
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 4: And he is an oil man.

248
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 7: He's leaving the Lakers. He abandoned his boy. He's gotta

249
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:23,559
Speaker 7: go to Dallas.

250
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 4: Now.

251
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, then you start to see, you start to see

252
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,080
Speaker 3: other forms of his boy, not his son, but a

253
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:33,920
Speaker 3: Brandon Weims, you know.

254
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, I guess they're close.

255
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess they're close from way back when high

256
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 2: school days.

257
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:40,960
Speaker 3: And he's an assistant GM.

258
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 2: We've talked before about Mike Ganzy and that he played

259
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 2: ball against him in high school. Lebron was mister basketball.

260
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 2: Mike Ganzy was runner up of mister Basketball in Ohio.

261
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 2: Now he's running the Philadelphia seventy six ers. Because the

262
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,719
Speaker 2: seventy six ers now you can really start to buy buy.

263
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's nice to have only four locked in members

264
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 5: of a starting five, right now. That's how you get

265
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 5: on that whiteboard.

266
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:10,319
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, your Minnesota's your Phillies. Yeah natural, I mean

267
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,680
Speaker 2: the youngest one is a weird one, you know.

268
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:17,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think he's going back to Cleveland.

269
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 1: I would think, but hey, who knows, who knows what

270
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 1: this guy? And how long will this take that is

271
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:23,679
Speaker 1: the question, will this take all summer?

272
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 3: It could?

273
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 2: We're all, you know around the bronze age. You turn

274
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 2: forty one, you want to go to a new city

275
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 2: that you've never been to, you know, that whole routine

276
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 2: thing of being a basketball player, because part of why

277
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 2: he's so good is that he's so good at his routine.

278
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, play, You're.

279
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:45,560
Speaker 2: Just going to tap into a new city. You go Cleveland, LA.

280
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, Cleveland, Miami, Cleveland, LA. And then I don't know, yeah,

281
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,840
Speaker 2: but it's in Minneapolis.

282
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, midlife crisis. I mean, you just ran your first

283
00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 1: ten k for crying out Lout or Peace Street.

284
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 2: You don't like shake marathons.

285
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: He just wants to switch it up.

286
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 2: Switch it up and go to Minnesota after insulting a

287
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 2: smaller market like Memphis, much smaller than Minnesota. But but

288
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 2: he did that attel, HeSE Memphis hotels. But maybe he

289
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 2: likes Minnesota's I who's pitching? Is Alex Rodriguez pitching lebron

290
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,479
Speaker 2: As Now you're the goat saying.

291
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 5: The Krazinski article that he likes the Timberwolves ownership group.

292
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 5: But I don't know what kind of connections. Mark Laurie

293
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 5: has off the court.

294
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 1: This is the exactly pitch.

295
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 2: He's got some good connections. Yeah, he does the food

296
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 2: delivery systems.

297
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 5: All right, put it on the white I'm.

298
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: Gonna say, but this is, honestly, this is not a

299
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: bad pitch idea. If you are the Minnesota Timberwolves, Like

300
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: I get the reasoning, like, yeah, we haven't won, man,

301
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 1: you go to State. I'm sorry, buddy, Like you're tied

302
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 1: to Corey. We get excited about the whole USA connection.

303
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 1: But like, like you said, it's not your team, it's

304
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 1: not your franchise, Like, okay, this is what you do.

305
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 3: If you're Minnesota.

306
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 1: Absolutely, I have no problems with the concept of the pitch.

307
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a little more, it's a little more apples

308
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 2: to apples. If he had only won in one organization,

309
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 2: like Michael, you know, if he had only just won

310
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 2: it with one, you want to want it the second one.

311
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 2: I hear what you're saying. It's a new organization. But

312
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 2: he's already won with three.

313
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, just saying Miami or Golden State, like they have success,

314
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 1: they have championships, multiple championships. If you're a team like Minnesota,

315
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 1: this is what you say, Hey, man, they can't do it. Yeah, yeah,

316
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 1: all right, I mean, when's the last time they want

317
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 1: When we talked Kirby Pucket, we're talking.

318
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 2: About ninety one, Kirby Pucket running against it and running

319
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 2: against that wall. That's right, those fiberglass walls. Jack Morris

320
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 2: doing some stuff with that mustache. That series, he was great.

321
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 2: He pitched innings.

322
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 1: Oh that's incredible, right in game seven?

323
00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, game seven.

324
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 1: You would never see that nowadays, he'd be out by

325
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 1: the sixth inning.

326
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 5: Exactly. Get that closer in exactly? Who was the closer

327
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 5: for the Twins?

328
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 3: Wasn't Rick Aguilero?

329
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 5: Was it? It feels maybe he was a round back

330
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 5: then for sure.

331
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 3: And he went to Atlanta.

332
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 2: Oh no, that's Jeff Reard in my bad. I get

333
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 2: a right.

334
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 1: Sorry, all right, let's get into some other we can't

335
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 1: quick quickly.

336
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 2: Another old guy. I'm getting the more of the feeling

337
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 2: that wants to go back to his team. The DeMar

338
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 2: DeRozan rumors out there wants to go to the Toronto

339
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 2: rappor Hey, maybe perhaps to come up he'd have to

340
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 2: come off the bench, though, I would think, yeah, and Toronto,

341
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 2: and that's his role at this point. They need one

342
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 2: that would be nice to have a score come off

343
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:45,520
Speaker 2: the bench. So yeah, you could see that his money

344
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 2: is not locked up and he's part of his contract

345
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 2: is guaranteed this next year. I could see a buy

346
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 2: out there for guys's almost thirty seven. Is gonna be

347
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 2: thirty seven going in to next season? Maybe you could see, hey,

348
00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 2: I'm at the end here. Maybe I can do something

349
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 2: with the Toronto team that I used to be in

350
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 2: love with instead of Sacramento. That's why would you want

351
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:06,040
Speaker 2: to stay there?

352
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,720
Speaker 5: Yeah? I think he's non guaranteed, right, so they'll it

353
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 5: makes sense for the Kings also to cut ties with them.

354
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, ten mil guaranteed of his twenty five.

355
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:16,640
Speaker 1: What's the date on that decision?

356
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 3: Do you know? I think it's soon. I don't know.

357
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 2: I'll just make noise to kill team.

358
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 1: Teams can officially sign players to contracts beginning at twelve

359
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 1: oh one today July sixth here, So there'll be a

360
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 1: lot of like official you know news being like all

361
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,440
Speaker 1: the stuff we've known, but like players signed because it's

362
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,640
Speaker 1: all like reports and agrees to and it's like today

363
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:43,440
Speaker 1: it all becomes official or a lot of it will

364
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 1: releast some things over the weekend. Yeah, we can pivot

365
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,120
Speaker 1: to this. You know, these are smaller trades. But on Friday,

366
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 1: the Lakers traded center DeAndre Eaton to the Washington Wizards

367
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,919
Speaker 1: for guard Jaden Hardy and two second round picks in

368
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 1: twenty thirty one and thirty to TKD. You have a

369
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 1: reaction to eight in to the Wizards too.

370
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 5: It's a minor ror, like a windy fingers for me, Oh, pinkies,

371
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,160
Speaker 5: would you do that?

372
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,199
Speaker 4: Not full fundy fingers.

373
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 2: But guys, yeah, it was interesting, right, You're like.

374
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 5: Okay, DeAndre a and the Lakers now don't have a

375
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:19,920
Speaker 5: backup center. I've seemed like Eighton would be at least

376
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:23,920
Speaker 5: a decent backup guy behind Walker Kessler. Then you look

377
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,880
Speaker 5: at the Wizard it's like they do have sar Anthony

378
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,400
Speaker 5: Davis and Tristan Vuksovic way down on the depth chart

379
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 5: as well. So I don't necessarily know how DeAndre Ayton

380
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,680
Speaker 5: fits there. Does it mean Anthony Davis is potentially available,

381
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:41,120
Speaker 5: as we've heard, and as he certainly feels like he

382
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 5: wants to be on the move. But I just thought

383
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,919
Speaker 5: it was kind of interesting that the Lakers after like

384
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:48,879
Speaker 5: he got about as good of a season as they

385
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,439
Speaker 5: could have gotten out of DeAndre Ayton. Last year. He

386
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 5: showed his warts the way he always does, but he

387
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,960
Speaker 5: produced for the team. They got him on a cheap

388
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 5: deal only eight mil I think this year, right, So

389
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,880
Speaker 5: he could have stuck around and they need some size

390
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 5: on that team. Still a young dude, but apparently they said, no,

391
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,600
Speaker 5: thank you, We'll take our chances with a Kevon Looney

392
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,120
Speaker 5: or a Nick Rick or maybe a Plumbley or mark

393
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 5: Stein was even suggesting Jonas Van to the Lakers. He

394
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:17,920
Speaker 5: was a potential Laker last season, didn't happen. I don't

395
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:19,879
Speaker 5: know if he's even gonna be an NBA guy this

396
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 5: coming season because he apparently wanted to leave last year.

397
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 5: He didn't, but now that's still up in the air,

398
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 5: and maybe the Lakers come and save him.

399
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,440
Speaker 4: So kind of unusual to see DeAndre and on the move.

400
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 2: I thought, yeah, I understand even from his perspective. You

401
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,160
Speaker 2: go from playing hard as a starter too, now you're

402
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:36,880
Speaker 2: gonna be the backup too.

403
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:37,640
Speaker 5: Very very likely.

404
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 2: So Walker Kestler in Washington super interesting in that Anthony

405
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,960
Speaker 2: Davis likes to be the four, and so you could

406
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:48,080
Speaker 2: see DeAndrea and playing beside him, but you do have

407
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,120
Speaker 2: a star there. Alex Aar is a guy that they

408
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:55,160
Speaker 2: kind of, you know, not kind of they liked the guy,

409
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 2: but he did have off season surgery, so he will

410
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 2: come into camp bang up, even though he's supposed to

411
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,720
Speaker 2: play the beginning of the season. So maybe Deandraton gets

412
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 2: the five start beside Anthony Davis, which seems so strange.

413
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:13,399
Speaker 2: So Eighton wants to start, I imagine, But we have

414
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 2: our man Jake Fisher saying there's a chance that Ad,

415
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:20,359
Speaker 2: eight and and Sar all start at the same time.

416
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,880
Speaker 2: Come on, so that actually that they're going to play

417
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,359
Speaker 2: at the same time. I know it sounds really feah,

418
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 2: but it's just a weird time. It's just a weird

419
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 2: team with Ad, Eighten and Trey, lots of veteran talent

420
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,200
Speaker 2: and then a whole ton of young players. And we're

421
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 2: coming up to August sixth, talking dates, talking DeRozan dates.

422
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 2: With this Anthony Avis date is coming up. He can

423
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 2: be extended on August sixth, So what's happening there? This

424
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:50,400
Speaker 2: is an interesting summer and the DeRozan deal actually getting

425
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 2: back to DeMar Derozen it only becomes guaranteed in January,

426
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,160
Speaker 2: he makes ten MILLI no matter what, but at full

427
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,480
Speaker 2: guaranteed on January tenth for the rest of that twenty

428
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 2: five million dollars. So if he's making a buyout deal,

429
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:07,119
Speaker 2: I guess it's really only in terms of negotiation for

430
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 2: that fifteen point seven, which is the balance. So you know,

431
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:12,919
Speaker 2: give him a few go sign somewhere else for a minimum,

432
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:14,160
Speaker 2: you take a little bit less.

433
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:15,920
Speaker 3: So there we go.

434
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,360
Speaker 1: H My only thoughts on eight. And it does feel

435
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,400
Speaker 1: like a bit of a low risk move for the Wizards,

436
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: Like you guys said, guaranteed salary of just basically eight

437
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:27,120
Speaker 1: million with one year remaining, and yeah, with the Sar injury,

438
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:28,639
Speaker 1: and they say he's going to be good to go

439
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 1: by the start of the season, but you also have

440
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,879
Speaker 1: ad whether he's there or not, he's gonna probably miss time.

441
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 1: So decent work here, at least as a backup center

442
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,119
Speaker 1: and a guy that can start in a pinch. He

443
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 1: played a lot for the Lakers. You're right, TK. It

444
00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:45,320
Speaker 1: was like not a bad year. Really, it was classic eating.

445
00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 1: It was like the average of twelve and a half

446
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,400
Speaker 1: points during seventy two starts, shot the ball extremely high.

447
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: Of course, had a great impact in the first round

448
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 1: against the Rockets, like he was pretty damn good in

449
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 1: that series. We talked about it like it was a

450
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,119
Speaker 1: big reason why they maybe beat the Rockets, and then

451
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:02,879
Speaker 1: it was classic eat and against the Thunder it was

452
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,160
Speaker 1: like it was horrible. He was really really bad shot

453
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,920
Speaker 1: the ball as a big forty seven points per game,

454
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 1: like no good. Didn't we have like a certain point

455
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,920
Speaker 1: like I think just JJ Reddick doesn't love DeAndre Ayton

456
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,440
Speaker 1: and his type of play, like there was probably frustration,

457
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:18,479
Speaker 1: I think so there was. Yeah, and they get two

458
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,720
Speaker 1: second round picks back, helps them replenish a little bit

459
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:25,360
Speaker 1: draft assets, which they have next to none, especially after

460
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 1: the Walker Kessler all, I know, their second round picks.

461
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:31,159
Speaker 1: These things fly around like candy, but it's not nothing

462
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 1: at least in a trade moving forward if you're trying

463
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:34,960
Speaker 1: to help the team. But yeah, they got work to

464
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:36,359
Speaker 1: do here getting a backup big.

465
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:37,120
Speaker 3: Yeah.

466
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,119
Speaker 2: I remember on Amazon Prime, you know how he Donnis

467
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 2: Haslam talks guys up. He talked up DeAndre Ayton. He

468
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 2: was trying to talk him up, and you could see

469
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 2: JJ Reddick doing the same thing, trying to get him

470
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,720
Speaker 2: to be himself. But again, he played a lot. So

471
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,679
Speaker 2: it's gonna be an interesting year, especially because you want

472
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 2: to play A. J. Debantsa a ton at the small

473
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 2: forward spot.

474
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, you would hope so.

475
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,920
Speaker 2: And well yeah, so all these young guys, it's it's

476
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:03,920
Speaker 2: a big year for a lot of these young guys

477
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 2: in terms of their future in Washington. A lot of

478
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 2: contracts could be extended, are coming up. But I'm sure

479
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 2: we'll be watching AJ Debantsa on Thursday when he plays

480
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,800
Speaker 2: Darren Peterson Thursday, and then we'll be here on Friday.

481
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 2: I'm sure we'll be talking about it.

482
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 1: And Darren Pearson already underway in the other summer leagues

483
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 1: before the Big Vegas Summer League had a good game.

484
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 1: A fun note here before we move on. The Wizards

485
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 1: now have three number one overall picks on their roster.

486
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 1: That's always fun is you've got eton number one pick,

487
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 1: Anthony Davis is there number one pick? And then of

488
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 1: course the new one in AJ Debantza.

489
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 5: Did they have did they have three other Lakers last year?

490
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 5: Was that right? They had Lebron and they had Ayton.

491
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 1: Who's the third round?

492
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 5: I'm trying to I don't know the way we thought

493
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 5: about that. We've had we've had before. Yeah, it wasn't Ayton,

494
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 5: or it wasn't.

495
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:53,880
Speaker 1: Wiggins cat and Anthony Bennett, right.

496
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:58,399
Speaker 5: Wigan's cat Anthony Bennett. Yeah, classic Lakers had it like

497
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 5: back in the day Worthy Kareem in Magic. They might

498
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 5: be had a fourth as well. Michael Thompson was on

499
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 5: the bench.

500
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 1: Wow, good call. All right. Another deal from late last week,

501
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 1: the Charlotte Hornets acquired Dorian Phinney Smith and three second

502
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,400
Speaker 1: round picks from the Rockets for Houston. The trade opens

503
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 1: up roster flexibility and creates a thirteen million dollar trade exception.

504
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 1: But this is DFS and those picks going to Charlotte

505
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,639
Speaker 1: tray really one hundred percent salary dump here for Houston,

506
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 1: I mean, gets them out of the first a print,

507
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 1: end the luxury text.

508
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 5: One hundred percent salary dumb for Houston. And I guess

509
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:38,640
Speaker 5: DFS makes a little bit more sense on the Hornets

510
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 5: than he does on the Rockets. Like a down season,

511
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,399
Speaker 5: I thought for Dorian Phinney Smith, he was coming off

512
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 5: an injury, just never looked super comfortable, never established himself

513
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 5: in the rotation with Houston. But now you can go

514
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,240
Speaker 5: to a Charlotte team which is consciously taking a step

515
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,200
Speaker 5: back this year and be one of the veterans on

516
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:54,880
Speaker 5: that team. And if he's able to get some three

517
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,320
Speaker 5: point shots going, if he's able to rediscover his stroke

518
00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 5: from outside, like, he could probably play on this team

519
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,919
Speaker 5: because it feels like this year's Hornets team is all

520
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:03,920
Speaker 5: about spacing and chuck and threes.

521
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 4: That's everybody they brought.

522
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:09,680
Speaker 5: In is kind of an in the middle size guy

523
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 5: who's gonna chuck threes.

524
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:12,720
Speaker 4: So I can see why DFS is there.

525
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 5: Plus, the Hornets now have twenty second round picks in

526
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 5: the next seven drafts, So anybody who's projected to go

527
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,400
Speaker 5: like thirty one through forty in the next seven seasons,

528
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 5: if the Hornet's like one of those guys, they can

529
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,879
Speaker 5: get them. Yeah, because he just chuck a couple of

530
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:29,719
Speaker 5: picks in here. We want to draft thirty third. Now

531
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:31,200
Speaker 5: we got our own Leonard Miller.

532
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 2: And they got a lot of contracts that can bundle

533
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 2: together if they have a star that's available. That's right, right,

534
00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:42,680
Speaker 2: because their highest paid player is Nazrita twenty three million. Wow,

535
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 2: that's it. But they have one hundred and sixty eight

536
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 2: million combined with so many types of contracts are so

537
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 2: many numbers, so they can do that. But Dorrian Phantey Smith, Yeah,

538
00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,960
Speaker 2: off here right. We know the Houston Rockets love old guys.

539
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,920
Speaker 2: That whole organization old guys. And unfortunately Dorian Phoeney Smith

540
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:05,080
Speaker 2: looked like he was getting older. He wasn't that guy

541
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 2: that they signed. And yeah, hopefully he can bounce back

542
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 2: a little bit because that was not last year was.

543
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: Like completely right off because of the ankle surgery. Yeah,

544
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 1: and then obviously gets in there and it didn't look

545
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 1: all that great. But I'm with you on the Hornets man,

546
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:19,679
Speaker 1: Like you brought up the draft assets tray, like they

547
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,119
Speaker 1: have ten first round picks too, right, in addition to

548
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,920
Speaker 1: twenty second round picks. The financial flexibility they are, they're

549
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:29,720
Speaker 1: set up to be a player if they want in

550
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,400
Speaker 1: any sort of transaction really over the years to come

551
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,800
Speaker 1: here the way they're currently constructed. Now, we'll see how

552
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 1: they Yeah, it's an interesting thought. Do they fall off

553
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 1: this year a little bit or they try to stay

554
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 1: the same. Obviously, give the keys Toknipple and Brandon Miller.

555
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 1: They've made moves and the naserit and keeping Kobe White.

556
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:48,960
Speaker 1: But we went through it the other day, like the

557
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:53,400
Speaker 1: East is suddenly better loaded or better. Yeah, but they're

558
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: probably in a good spot here right now, right now.

559
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, I had so many first round picks coming up

560
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 2: in this next year. They've got their own. They've got

561
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 2: Miami protected, but should go to them because Miami should

562
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 2: be good. They've got Dallas is also protected, so they

563
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,560
Speaker 2: can start to bundle things together. It's a different front office.

564
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 2: Jeff Peterson has made this a different front office. But

565
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 2: hopefully Dorian can do something where he's known more for

566
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,480
Speaker 2: that than winning Weggie of the Year for the Starters

567
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:21,320
Speaker 2: on NBA TV in twenty seventeen.

568
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,119
Speaker 5: Wow, I always bring a movie, I think, so, first thing.

569
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 3: I definitely do.

570
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 2: I mean he accepted the award, he brought up, pulled

571
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,800
Speaker 2: up the starty and did a little speech sent it in.

572
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:33,919
Speaker 2: What else do you know Dorian Fridney Smith for I

573
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 2: mean traded to a late one.

574
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:36,200
Speaker 3: Yah. Yeah, good point.

575
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,159
Speaker 5: He was close friends with Luca Dantic during their tenure

576
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,480
Speaker 5: in Dallas. That would be the only other thing, because

577
00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 5: like I was looking at his basketball reference paids of

578
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,200
Speaker 5: course to kind of refresh myself, and you can't even

579
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,200
Speaker 5: like figure out any sort of reason why he wears

580
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 5: his numbers. I'm sure he does wear him, but he

581
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,680
Speaker 5: went ten, twenty eight, seventeen and two. Holy, we don't

582
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,040
Speaker 5: have any sort of like connection at all to be

583
00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,919
Speaker 5: twenty eight. That's a weird one. That's Marshall Fall.

584
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 3: I also remember his nickname was.

585
00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 1: Dodo, But yeah, I just immediately think of Daily Fantasy

586
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:12,520
Speaker 1: Sports anytime I see his name. That's all I think about.

587
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:16,280
Speaker 1: And he's also he's older than I always think like

588
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 1: he's thirty three. I mean, obviously I'm ten plus years older,

589
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:21,119
Speaker 1: but you know, in the NBA world, I don't think

590
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,160
Speaker 1: him as that old. And maybe maybe it's because these

591
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 1: last two years sort of especially last year with the

592
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:28,800
Speaker 1: ankleer injury and then he bounced around right the year

593
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 1: before that he played for two teams.

594
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:31,639
Speaker 4: He was a net Laker.

595
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so it's like it's sort of a forgotten

596
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,880
Speaker 1: year to me at least. But maybe I like this

597
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:39,960
Speaker 1: is like they got second round picks two for taking

598
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 1: him on. I think he could, if he can bounce

599
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 1: back from injury, help the Hornets for sure. I don't

600
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 1: think he's washed or anything like that. I wouldn't think so.

601
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 1: So we'll see. Uh here's a minor move. The Knicks

602
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 1: agreed to a one year, three point nine million dollar

603
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 1: contract with veteran center Andre Drummond, the Big Penguin. The

604
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 1: move comes on the heels of Mitchell Robinson reaching a

605
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 1: much bigger deal with the Celtics. Mitchell's departure was expected

606
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 1: after James Dolan said he wouldn't allow his team to

607
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: go into the luxury tax second apron. So TK there

608
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:13,280
Speaker 1: trying to replace Mitch Ruminson with Andre Drummon. Yep, sort

609
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 1: of makes sense when you think about what they do.

610
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly. They said, we still want an offensive rebounder

611
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 5: and we need a backup big man for Carl Anthony Towns.

612
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 5: The other guy who was rumored to be going to

613
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 5: New York is Kevon Looney. I think I would prefer

614
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 5: Drummond over Looney, though they're both a little bit worse

615
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 5: than Mitchell Robinson. Yeah, a little bit older as well.

616
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 5: But you can't undervalue the stretchiness that Andre Drummond now

617
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,640
Speaker 5: brings to the New York Knicks. First it was corner threes.

618
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:41,880
Speaker 5: Now he's there with Karl Anthony Towns. He's going to

619
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 5: learn to shoot above the break freeze. Best shooting front

620
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 5: court in NBA history, Cat and Drummond.

621
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 3: Damn.

622
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 2: Last year was a huge year for him, shooting it

623
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 2: for age coming out of nowhere in year thirteen. Of

624
00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 2: his shooting by far the most threes was year one

625
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:04,920
Speaker 2: through twelve. If you add him up, all those threes

626
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 2: were way lower than what he did last year. So yeah,

627
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 2: but also dunking the ball, I think more importantly, Yeah,

628
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 2: just dunking it like Mitchell Robinson can.

629
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 3: Uh.

630
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 2: Definitely a healthier guy than Kevon Looney. Kevon Looney was

631
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 2: really hurt last year. Zion Williamson fooled me coming into

632
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 2: his preseason press conference saying, yeah, Kevon Looney, man, it's

633
00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:26,600
Speaker 2: good to have him around, like he's my vet. And

634
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 2: then I mean Looney didn't play, he played twenty games,

635
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 2: was a twenty one something really really low. So yeah,

636
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 2: Drummond even older than Loony. Drummond is Doriy and Finney

637
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 2: Smith's age. I mean, he's he seems like way older

638
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,120
Speaker 2: than Dorian Finnish totally, but he's only going to be

639
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:44,479
Speaker 2: thirty three this coming season.

640
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 3: So it's a better move than Loony.

641
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 2: It's not Mitchell Robinson's Mitchell Robinson light, but it's better

642
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 2: than loony.

643
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:54,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, Mitchell Robinson recovered twenty three percent of the Knicks

644
00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 1: missus when he was on the court, twenty three percent

645
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 1: of their own missus. That you know, if he had

646
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 1: played the requisite minutes and games and all that, that

647
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 1: would have like shattered Dennis Rodman's single season record for

648
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:11,000
Speaker 1: offensive rebound rate, which is seventeen point two percent, which

649
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:14,120
Speaker 1: is huge. But that's how great mind Ronson is just

650
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 1: gobbling up offensive rebounds, and that's what the Knicks like.

651
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 1: That's part of their offense that they obsess over the

652
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:23,840
Speaker 1: possession game. So they're hoping Drummond can replicate it a

653
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 1: little bit. Hollinger also notes that the one year minimum

654
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 1: for Andre Drummond means the Knicks won't need to tip

655
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 1: into their taxpayer exception to fill the backup center slot.

656
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 1: They could bring back Jordan Clarkson. It could add one

657
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 1: more veteran and still comfortably stay below the second apron.

658
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 1: So you know, they're looking at the books there as well.

659
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 1: With Mitchell Robinson getting paid what he got paid, this

660
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,640
Speaker 1: is obviously just much cheaper. But yeah, I don't think

661
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 1: he's going to Drummond is going to be able to

662
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:50,720
Speaker 1: give you one hundred percent of what miche Rumminson gave you.

663
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know what.

664
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 1: Percentage they'd be happy with seventy five percent. They're probably like,

665
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 1: all right, great for the costs, Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.

666
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 5: Unfortunately forampionship teams, you gotta cycle through bench guys. Yeah,

667
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:03,640
Speaker 5: so you lose a Mitchell Robinson.

668
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 1: That's exactly right.

669
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, Jim didn't want to pay.

670
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 1: For him, and we learned h Mitchell Robinson over the

671
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 1: weekend revealed why or how he fractured his hand just

672
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 1: before the NBA Finals. He had a lengthy post and

673
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 1: it was like a moment of frustration to use his

674
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 1: words about a personal matter with like an accident in

675
00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 1: his family, and he basically banged his hand on this truck.

676
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 1: It involved his truck. We were right about that. And

677
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 1: then so he had surgery on the pinky there before

678
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 1: Game one. It sort of like doesn't matter because they

679
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:35,600
Speaker 1: went on to win the championship. Couldn't been a much

680
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 1: bigger story if he couldn't have played or they fall short.

681
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's a great it's a I'm laughing because

682
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,600
Speaker 1: it's a crazy post of like what he's explaining of

683
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:46,400
Speaker 1: why he injured.

684
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 2: It absolutely.

685
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 1: It was scary of why but it was. There's all

686
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,520
Speaker 1: these funny, weird details in it and stuff like that.

687
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 1: Let's just say it's very Mitchell Robinson ESK.

688
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:57,760
Speaker 2: But he's on Boston and I love my truck, right,

689
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:00,040
Speaker 2: That's why I mean funny details in my.

690
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 5: Stop the truck's fall though.

691
00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, other moves we just learned here before going live.

692
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:10,040
Speaker 1: That restricted free agent Quinton Post has agreed to a

693
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:13,320
Speaker 1: three year, thirty million dollar deal with the Grizzlies so

694
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:17,960
Speaker 1: the Warriors could match. Yeah, TVD on that. Josha Kogi

695
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:19,880
Speaker 1: agreed to a two year, twelve million dollar deal with

697

Speaker 1: are bringing back Jordan Miller on a three year, fifteen

699

Speaker 1: point three million dollars deal. Any thoughts in any of

700
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 1: those smaller transactions.

701
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 2: Trey Lyles back from Real Madrid, where he played last season,

702
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 2: although he's from Saskatoon, Saskatoon can basically Minnesota pretty much.

703
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:45,080
Speaker 2: When he goes back to Saskatoon, he's got to say

704
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:48,920
Speaker 2: to his mom, we're not in Madrid anymore. Month that's

712
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:16,799
Speaker 2: at forty two, Ingrim at forty, big drop off, Derek

713
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,920

722
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:43,120

723
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, then they want him. Apparently Clippers want him.

724
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 5: And who was reporting was this a mark Stein joint

725
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 5: that said that basically, uh, the Nuggets will match anything,

726
00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:55,400
Speaker 5: but they're also open to a sign and trade. Yeah,

727
00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,719
Speaker 5: it's like, well whatever, let's see what you think.

728
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:00,919
Speaker 1: Yes, and we're waiting on during as well.

Speaker 1: You know, there's been a lot of talk about a

731
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,719
Speaker 1: potential sign and trade too well with what they're going

732
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,960
Speaker 1: to do there, So we'll see. It's a restricted waiting

733
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,319
Speaker 1: game here. All right, let's take a break when we

734
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,240
Speaker 1: come back, beach stepping.

735
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:20,400
Speaker 5: The biggest stage in world soccer is here, and every

736
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 5: goal changes everything. And now Fandal is giving you a

737
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:27,240
Speaker 5: reason root for every single one introducing every goal pays

Speaker 5: bet on a match and get bonus bets for every

739
00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 5: goal scored in that match. That's right, More goals mean

740
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:35,560
Speaker 5: more bonus bets, and all you have to do is

741
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 5: turn on your token. The USA is slight.

742
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,080
Speaker 4: Favorite tonight against the Belgian team.

743
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:42,720
Speaker 1: Were getting a little help there.

744
00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:51,080
Speaker 4: Flow ball again. He's a plus one forty five to

745
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:51,840
Speaker 4: score tonight.

746
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 5: Wow, plus one thousand for the brace two goals. But

747
00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:00,320
Speaker 5: apparently now Belgium is giving the opportunity to.

748
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:01,280

Speaker 4: It's down here on the East coast.

Speaker 5: Games of eight, so what they got nine hours to

00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:13,239
Speaker 5: figure it out?

754
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 2: Weird?

755
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:19,440
Speaker 5: What a weird world couldn't believe this guy's back in.

756
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:21,440
Speaker 4: I love it because they jopped him.

757
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:22,359
Speaker 2: That should have right.

758
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 4: Everybody knows it.

759
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:24,960

Speaker 2: He's like, yeah, I'm glad he's back. It should have happened.

763
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:32,239
Speaker 2: Quicker is what he said. He didn't get He didn't

764
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:33,160
Speaker 2: get into the politics.

765
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 1: He just said I agree with that.

766
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:36,279

774
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:53,320

779
00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 5: Okays one twenty eight currently in Belgium a plus one oh.

780
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 2: Four, so it's close.

781
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:10,800
Speaker 1: That's an eight o'clocker. Yeah, you watch any of Mexico.

782
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:13,320
Speaker 1: I watched it all stressful.

783
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:15,879
Speaker 5: Yeah, I love seem FIFA going out of their way

784
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:18,680
Speaker 5: to try and rig things for the home nation because

785
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,719
Speaker 5: they're like, sorry, Mexico, I see that you're down off

786
00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:24,879
Speaker 5: of two brutal goals that they conceded back to back,

787
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:28,360
Speaker 5: basically almost the exact same goals, just kind of forgetting

788
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:30,880
Speaker 5: to play defense there for about one minute.

789
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:32,239
Speaker 3: So then the.

790
00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 5: FIFA referee was like, all right, we're getting one of

791
00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:36,560
Speaker 5: these English guys out of here. We're going to give

792
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 5: you as many possible opportunities to tie it up. But

793
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:42,959
Speaker 5: apparently just crossing it into the middle the shorter team

794
00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 5: wasn't working.

795
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 1: They tried that like thirty five times, try something.

796
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:48,680
Speaker 5: Else, go twenty minutes across.

797
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:50,080
Speaker 4: If this works.

798
00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:52,400
Speaker 1: It was very exciting, but it was exciting. It was

799
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:55,280
Speaker 1: very exciting, very exciting. Didn't go as well for Canada

800
00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:58,440
Speaker 1: there on Saturday. No needed to score that one in

801
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,120
Speaker 1: the first half when we completely played them for the

802
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:04,200
Speaker 1: first half. They all played Morocco, and then second half

803
00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,960
Speaker 1: started and then it was rough and then it got

804
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:08,560
Speaker 1: out of hand because you got a press press press

805
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 1: to tie it up and then you just give up

806
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:13,440
Speaker 1: the transition. It was, it's okay, hey, hell of her performance.

807
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, when those stats came up that said shots and

808
00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:19,240
Speaker 2: shots on goal over the first whatever it was thirty minutes,

809
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,360
Speaker 2: it was all Canada zeros.

810
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:24,479
Speaker 1: But you gotta find the back of the net.

811
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:26,560
Speaker 3: Got to a right, yeah, you know.

812
00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 2: Otherwise yeah, well, unless you want to get the penalties.

813
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:29,960
Speaker 3: You know.

814
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 1: All right, let's hit the beach. Let's do it.

00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 2: The rockets, I count it.

00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:40,160
Speaker 1: We got that ship shut down.

817
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:42,000
Speaker 2: Blah blah blah. You got that.

818
00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 1: We are on the beach. Reading your emails and your tweets.

819
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,120

Speaker 1: every fan listening and watching right now. Okay, hold on,

826
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,560
Speaker 1: follow along here. You heard it here. First, that's a

827
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:19,560
Speaker 1: point down, have a great time. That's an okay turn up.

Speaker 5: Okay, thumbs up.

831
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 1: You know that works, So now you can just start

832
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:31,840
Speaker 1: doing it without saying it, and then people will know

833
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:35,600
Speaker 1: what you're doing. Okay, the actual question here a signature

834
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,840
Speaker 1: celebration move for every classic episode. Okay, my question. The

835
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 1: phrase can you tell the story of the NBA season

836
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,760
Speaker 1: with this player? Is often used to measure a player's impact.

837
00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,160
Speaker 1: Now let's apply that to the twenty five to twenty

838
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 1: six season, but in reverse. Who's a player you can

839
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:55,239
Speaker 1: tell the story of last season without? Must be a

840
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,480
Speaker 1: significant active player. To give you an example, Klay Thompson,

841
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:02,160
Speaker 1: He's a top seventy six player. Nice catch, by the way,

842
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:05,319
Speaker 1: very nice catch, but was completely forgotten this season with

843
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:09,240
Speaker 1: the Mavericks listening every day since since Trey's hair beret

844
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:12,200
Speaker 1: from the starters days. That's from cheat all the way

845
00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:15,319
Speaker 1: in the Philippines. So a player you can tell the

846
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:19,200
Speaker 1: story of last season without, but it's got to be

847
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:20,200
Speaker 1: a significant player.

848
00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:24,120
Speaker 2: I went way more significant than Klay Thompson. Okay, tell

849
00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 2: me if I'm wrong. Zion Williamson number one on my listen, yeah,

850
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:33,080
Speaker 2: number one with a bullet. Now, if we're talking preseason

851
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:37,240
Speaker 2: he should be talked about. I was so Joe Dumar

852
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,919
Speaker 2: sold him on the new ownership, sorry, the new front

853
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:44,040
Speaker 2: office I should say in New Orleans. But then he

854
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:47,200
Speaker 2: came out and a dud from the get go. I

855
00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 2: mean he kind of There was kind of some things

856
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,720
Speaker 2: written about Zion Wimbson at the beginning because they lost

857
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:54,840
Speaker 2: three games by thirty or more points in their first six,

858
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:57,719
Speaker 2: so that was bad and they wrote people wrote about it,

859
00:40:57,719 --> 00:40:59,239
Speaker 2: so people talked about it. But they got out to

860
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:01,919
Speaker 2: what a three and twenty two starts, so it was over.

861
00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 2: It was over that talking about Sien you know. Yeah,

862
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:07,840
Speaker 2: and maybe the season's different with the John Samury, But

863
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:12,239
Speaker 2: will you think about anything regarding Zion Willim sent the

864
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:14,239
Speaker 2: twenty five twenty six season. There's too much in the West.

865
00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:16,680
Speaker 2: They're just one of those teams that wasn't even the

866
00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:18,920
Speaker 2: worst of the worst, so they kind of just like

867
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:22,840
Speaker 2: they're floating in that stinky category. It's just people. You

868
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 2: just people. You forget about it, you know. Under the

869
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 2: plan again.

870
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:29,399
Speaker 1: And pick either was a part of it too, because

871
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 1: we wouldn't even talk about them like, well, at least

872
00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:33,080
Speaker 1: they're bad and maybe they'll hit the pick.

873
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:36,840
Speaker 2: But Yeah, twenty six and fifty six overall is bad.

874
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:39,719
Speaker 2: But I guess if you're if you're like if you

875
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:42,320
Speaker 2: were the Piston, like the Pistons of a couple of

876
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,919
Speaker 2: years ago, when you're you know, fifteen and sixty seven,

877
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:45,879
Speaker 2: maybe there's more talk.

878
00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:48,960
Speaker 3: But anyway, how bad? Yeah, how bad you are?

879
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 1: Well? I love go back and count the number of

880
00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:54,319
Speaker 1: times on our podcast, especially U Tre I know led

881
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 1: it a couple of times myself, Like, don't worry. The

882
00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:59,760
Speaker 1: Pelicans will not run this back, right, They can't possibly

883
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,400
Speaker 1: do this again. They'll they'll trade one or two or

884
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:05,560
Speaker 1: three or whatever. They'll take a different direction. Have you

885
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:10,399
Speaker 1: seen what they've done this off season? They signed DeAndre Jordan. Yeh,

886
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,560
Speaker 1: keep them around, great locker room guy. That's all they've done.

887
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:15,040
Speaker 5: That's all they've done.

888
00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:17,600
Speaker 1: So right now they're showing us we are going to

889
00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:19,839
Speaker 1: do the exact same thing that you said we would.

890
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:23,640
Speaker 5: Apparently they lowered their price on Trey Murphy from four

891
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:25,600
Speaker 5: to three first round picks.

892
00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:28,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they, as I said to Jehan, Tay Murray,

893
00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:31,960
Speaker 2: he'll start the season with the team unlike last year.

894
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:35,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what they're so, that's what that's.

895
00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:39,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly okay, But Trey Murphy talk will be up

896
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:42,439
Speaker 2: to very soon, I imagine, because he's the guy who's

897
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:45,440
Speaker 2: going to get back the most, even more than sign webs.

898
00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:48,640
Speaker 1: Oh yes, yes.

899
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:50,880
Speaker 2: At this point. So as soon as it goes poorly,

900
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:53,880
Speaker 2: especially in the Western Conference, it ain't gonna be easy

901
00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 2: with you know, a strengthen Portland, strengthen Utah, those teams

902
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:02,120
Speaker 2: that they're sort of in the round of the conversations

903
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:04,000
Speaker 2: will start pretty early in the season, I imagine.

904
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:04,680
Speaker 5: Trade.

905
00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:05,760
Speaker 1: Do you have any other names?

906
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:11,000
Speaker 5: Anthony Davis played twenty games for the Mavericks, completely forgettable.

907
00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,239
Speaker 5: They went ten and ten in the twenty games that

908
00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:15,320
Speaker 5: he played. He was part of a three team trade

909
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:20,320
Speaker 5: between the MAVs, the Wizards, and of course you remember

910
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:23,800
Speaker 5: right nets No, the Hornets. Hornets, he got traded for

911
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:26,960
Speaker 5: a bag of beans. Nobody did anything on their new teams. Literally,

912
00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:29,759
Speaker 5: Anthony Davis didn't suit up for the Wizards, might never

913
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 5: play for him after the trade. The other guys he

914
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:36,400
Speaker 5: got traded for Dante Exam, Jayden, Hardy, D'Angelo, Russell, Tyas Jones,

915
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:40,360
Speaker 5: Malachi Branham, Marvin Bagley, A. J. Johnson, and Chris Middleton

916
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:44,160
Speaker 5: it's just like twenty guys who all got traded for

917
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:48,440
Speaker 5: each other and who cares. So I got Anthony Davis. Yeah,

918
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 5: he was part of two teams last year and it

919
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:52,239
Speaker 5: didn't matter at all. Right.

920
00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:55,319
Speaker 1: My only pushback on Anthony Davis, it's a great one,

921
00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:59,279
Speaker 1: is didn't he have I thought he had one monster game?

922
00:43:59,360 --> 00:43:59,880
Speaker 4: He did have one?

923
00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:02,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, you did, right?

924
00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:05,960
Speaker 5: An think I remember seventeen or something like that.

925
00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yet thirty five and seventeen. Okay, that's got

926
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:10,439
Speaker 1: to be the game against Pelicans.

927
00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:13,600
Speaker 2: But I thought you would remember him for what you

928
00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:16,560
Speaker 2: said about him and Cooper Flag that they didn't like

929
00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 2: each other.

930
00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:23,080
Speaker 5: You remember that for sure? For sure, I do remember

931
00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:24,360
Speaker 5: saying that. I think it's true.

932
00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:26,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, Well, let's hear from you guys. That's

933
00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:28,600
Speaker 1: a fun one for everybody out there who's a player.

934
00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:30,920
Speaker 1: You can tell the story of last season without let

935
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:32,240
Speaker 1: us know next.

936
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:33,279
Speaker 3: One, next one?

937
00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:37,239
Speaker 2: Here. Hey, some layups heard your episode talking about the

938
00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:39,680
Speaker 2: NBA Cup being at Butler, and I have to push

939
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:43,800
Speaker 2: back against the slander of indie restaurants. If you truly

940
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:47,160
Speaker 2: respect the Cup, you'll be attending the finale. And I

941
00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 2: have every restaurant food wreck you could ever need. My question,

942
00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 2: what is your favorite genre of food and which NBA

943
00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:59,160
Speaker 2: players personality slash play style matches your genre of food.

944
00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:02,040
Speaker 2: My favorite a Mexican and as a Casz fan, I'll

945
00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:07,360
Speaker 2: go Spider, Donnie Mitch, Consistent, full of options, and best

946
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:10,520
Speaker 2: enjoyed when they've got a little pop, love the show,

947
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:13,880
Speaker 2: salute the cup, and go Cavs. That's from nash KOI

948
00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:18,799
Speaker 2: so two sided question here, favorite genre of food and

949
00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:21,560
Speaker 2: how would a player's personality apply to that food?

950
00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:21,920
Speaker 3: We got some.

951
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:24,680
Speaker 1: This is a tough one I do before we get

952
00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:28,840
Speaker 1: into answering the question. Indianapolis food, we did go. I

953
00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:31,160
Speaker 1: mean they all blend together, so I'm actually asking you guys.

954
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:34,440
Speaker 1: It was super snowy, ye, and we went to a

955
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:37,399
Speaker 1: chicken sandwich place or like a hot chicken place right

956
00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:42,160
Speaker 1: in Indianapolis. Yeah, and it was like it was cool.

957
00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:43,880
Speaker 1: I had a bit of a vibe and my food

958
00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:47,160
Speaker 1: was good. What the hell was the name of it? Okay,

959
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:52,400
Speaker 1: but that was in Indianapolis. Yeah, it was a DJ

960
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,919
Speaker 1: she had like a NASCAR jack. It was great.

961
00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:56,839
Speaker 4: It was a cool place.

962
00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:58,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a great place. But I don't know

963
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:00,320
Speaker 1: the name of it.

964
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:01,319
Speaker 2: It's a simple name.

965
00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:08,760
Speaker 1: Was it Dave's Nah, it may have been hot chicken, Yeah,

966
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:12,000
Speaker 1: it could be. Okay, somebody let us know it was good.

967
00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:15,839
Speaker 1: It was good in Indianapolis.

968
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:17,000
Speaker 3: That music was great.

969
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:20,640
Speaker 1: The music was awesome. Uh all right, back to the question.

970
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:23,200
Speaker 1: You go ahead, t k oh me. Yeah, I'm also

971
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:27,080
Speaker 1: Mexican food. Okay, number one for me? Your favorite genre?

972
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:31,920
Speaker 1: I said this to a genre of food. It's a cuisine.

973
00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:33,720
Speaker 4: I'm like, yeah, that's a weird genre.

974
00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:36,680
Speaker 3: Maybe yeah, maybe yeah.

975
00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:40,400
Speaker 5: I don't know why Nash is being so cool his recommendations.

976
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:42,480
Speaker 5: He said, you have to you have to write back

977
00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:43,440
Speaker 5: to get the recommendation.

978
00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:44,680
Speaker 4: I'm not sliding them in here.

979
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:47,759
Speaker 5: But whereas he's a spider Donny Mitch, I'm more of

980
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,480
Speaker 5: Michale Bridges when it comes to Mexican food. I could

981
00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 5: eat it every day, and when I do, it gives

982
00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:53,440
Speaker 5: me a big smile.

983
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:55,960
Speaker 1: That's good. That's your favorite day?

984
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:57,880
Speaker 3: It is it is? You know?

985
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,120
Speaker 1: This is always tough to answer. I think I go

986
00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:04,000
Speaker 1: Italian favorite cuisine, like you know, that to me is

987
00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:07,960
Speaker 1: the goat, the pizza in the pasta. So I don't know,

988
00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:12,920
Speaker 1: does that make Italian food? I guess arguably our goat

989
00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:15,880
Speaker 1: of our generation is Lebron. No, he's not my goat,

990
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:20,560
Speaker 1: but he's obviously this era's goat. But you could maybe

991
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:21,920
Speaker 1: it's a Curry. I don't mean we're gonna tell me

992
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:24,960
Speaker 1: it's Korea. I don't know who's Italian, who's more Italian Lebron.

993
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:26,600
Speaker 5: Or Curry Lebron.

994
00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:32,720
Speaker 1: But I just want to tell you what's your favorite genre?

995
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:33,040
Speaker 7: Food?

996
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:34,120
Speaker 3: My favorite genre?

997
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:39,120
Speaker 7: Start asking what's your favorite genre?

998
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,479
Speaker 2: Greek is too easy an answer for me. So what's

999
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:43,640
Speaker 2: what's happening? A lot? Is it? I'm going to eat

1000
00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:48,719
Speaker 2: Korean a ton? That's so that's happened a lot, And

1001
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:54,360
Speaker 2: I think, uh, the the spiciness of it really gets

1002
00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:58,080
Speaker 2: to me. But I love how it's it's none. It

1003
00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:00,560
Speaker 2: doesn't sit with you for a long time. It just

1004
00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:04,719
Speaker 2: evaporates real quickly, like John Moran, like High Ceiling, an

1005
00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:09,040
Speaker 2: incredible play. But and he's gone for a bit, you know,

1006
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:12,160
Speaker 2: he's gone pretty quickly. So yeah, you know, I could

1007
00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:16,360
Speaker 2: have so many things. Have you guys ever had that spicy?

1008
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:20,840
Speaker 2: We're getting dinged all over there? That's okay, okay.

1009
00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:24,440
Speaker 8: I only get text from my son and I just

1010
00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:26,400
Speaker 8: yelled at him for putting the wrong name on that

1011
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:30,959
Speaker 8: last beached up and he's apologizing profusely, but the things

1012
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 8: are coming through.

1013
00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:35,919
Speaker 2: What was the wrong name?

1014
00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:37,360
Speaker 3: I had? Toronto?

1015
00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:39,920
Speaker 8: A guy from Toronto from last week.

1016
00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:45,120
Speaker 3: Well, it's a big deal. It is a really big deal.

1017
00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:45,440
Speaker 5: You know what.

1018
00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:52,239
Speaker 2: I would say if we're going Greek? Anthony Edwards is

1019
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:56,239
Speaker 2: kind of like the Saganau the flaming Cheese. He's theatrical,

1020
00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:59,200
Speaker 2: little dangerous, lights up the room and everyone turns to

1021
00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:03,799
Speaker 2: watch it happen. Uh so, yeah, Handy Namers is a

1022
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:05,440
Speaker 2: straight up Saganaki, straight.

1023
00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:07,760
Speaker 1: Up and JD. We don't need an NBA comp unless

1024
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:09,600
Speaker 1: you got one. But what is your favorite genre?

1025
00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:09,959
Speaker 2: Food?

1026
00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:12,200
Speaker 3: French?

1027
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:15,480
Speaker 8: I have to say I love I love French food,

1028
00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:20,320
Speaker 8: French restaurants, the cream, the butter and meat. Yea, the wine,

1029
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:21,839
Speaker 8: goddamn so good.

1030
00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:25,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, we gotta go back a JD. Yeah for sure.

1031
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:33,200
Speaker 1: All right, next one here, Hello soans slams. Random question

1032
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:36,600
Speaker 1: for the off season. I got some protein pop tarts

1033
00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:39,640
Speaker 1: to try and they were only available in classic strawberry

1034
00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:44,319
Speaker 1: with white frosting. Upon seeing them, my fiance made it

1035
00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:46,680
Speaker 1: clear she would have preferred the plain strawberry it with

1036
00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:50,000
Speaker 1: no frosting. I thought this was an insanely hot take.

1037
00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:54,320
Speaker 1: She then went on to give some other controversial takes,

1038
00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:57,680
Speaker 1: not liking peanut butter and that nuts should not be

1039
00:49:57,760 --> 00:50:02,879
Speaker 1: in candy or chocolate. Wow, which of my fiance's fiances

1040
00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:05,359
Speaker 1: takes is most difficult to defend? And what's a take

1041
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,959
Speaker 1: of yours mbry or not that goes against the grain?

1042
00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:12,040
Speaker 1: That is from Mark in Virginia and it's there on

1043
00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:15,480
Speaker 1: the graphic. Thank you Mark going through it with this

1044
00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:18,120
Speaker 1: fiances hot takes? Did you want to address that part first?

1045
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:18,400
Speaker 3: Oh?

1046
00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:20,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, let's see here which of my fiancees takes

1047
00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:24,680
Speaker 5: is most difficult to defend? So we're going between frosting

1048
00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:28,000
Speaker 5: and not frosting on a strawberry pop tart.

1049
00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:30,120
Speaker 4: I didn't even know they made protein pop tarts.

1050
00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:31,640
Speaker 2: I didn't know either, say what innovation?

1051
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:35,280
Speaker 4: My dad was always a person who liked the plain.

1052
00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:36,560
Speaker 5: One with just the holes on the top.

1053
00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:37,160
Speaker 3: Wow.

1054
00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:39,719
Speaker 5: I thought that was crazy back then, but it's still

1055
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:43,360
Speaker 5: tasty on the inside. Not liking peanut butter weird to me,

1056
00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:46,440
Speaker 5: But there are people out there weren't peanut butter heads.

1057
00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:49,160
Speaker 5: But you can put nuts in candy and chocolate. You

1058
00:50:49,160 --> 00:50:49,640
Speaker 5: can do it.

1059
00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:54,520
Speaker 2: Oh gosh, yeah, that's that's probably the wildest take that

1060
00:50:54,640 --> 00:51:00,759
Speaker 2: should be in chocolate. I mean, it's one of the

1061
00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:03,440
Speaker 2: best things, one of the best, one of your favorite

1062
00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:05,440
Speaker 2: things in chocolate, A freaking almond.

1063
00:51:06,239 --> 00:51:14,879
Speaker 3: Just you know, leave it there. You're right, it's all

1064
00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:16,680
Speaker 3: you need to say. The strawberry with.

1065
00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:18,680
Speaker 2: Frosting, I kind of agree with Mark Fiance.

1066
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:21,000
Speaker 3: I mean, maybe is good.

1067
00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:23,960
Speaker 5: I agree which part The plainy isn't as good.

1068
00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:26,719
Speaker 2: It's not as good, but the frosting is. Maybe I'm old,

1069
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:29,080
Speaker 2: but it really hits. It really hits my taste. But

1070
00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:33,320
Speaker 2: it's like hard, it's probably it's chewy sugar. We haven't

1071
00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:35,200
Speaker 2: we have them in our house, and even the kids

1072
00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:36,919
Speaker 2: like this is too much.

1073
00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:40,799
Speaker 1: You bring me one, I might blow your mind. I've

1074
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:41,680
Speaker 1: never had a pop tart.

1075
00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:45,759
Speaker 2: Weird. Never. Wow, I didn't have a toast growing up.

1076
00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:49,879
Speaker 1: We were so poor. We didn't have a toast. Uh No,

1077
00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:51,320
Speaker 1: we just never had them in the house. It was

1078
00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:53,799
Speaker 1: never bought, and I just went my entire life without

1079
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:54,200
Speaker 1: having one.

1080
00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:57,320
Speaker 2: You didn't miss much, No, I'm not intrigued.

1081
00:51:57,560 --> 00:52:01,200
Speaker 8: I never had one either till I was over forty,

1082
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:04,520
Speaker 8: definitely over over until he came here.

1083
00:52:04,719 --> 00:52:06,759
Speaker 1: I know I was gonna say, were they not a

1084
00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:07,600
Speaker 1: big Canadian thing?

1085
00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:12,560
Speaker 2: I know they existed, but I had him Okay, things

1086
00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:16,560
Speaker 2: were happening in my toast. Yeah, that's some weird stuff

1087
00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:19,319
Speaker 2: in my toaster, now that we think about it. Anyway,

1088
00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:23,640
Speaker 2: Marks fiance also noted, but I didn't include it in

1089
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:26,200
Speaker 2: the in the email just because or the messages because

1090
00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:28,640
Speaker 2: it was going too long. She said, not linking peanut butter,

1091
00:52:28,680 --> 00:52:32,759
Speaker 2: and that's included mixing with things like peanut butter and

1092
00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:40,440
Speaker 2: chocolate anything. Yeah, yeah, yeah, so anyway.

1093
00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:43,600
Speaker 1: Okay, so what about what about our own hot takes?

1094
00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:46,399
Speaker 1: NBA related or not? Does anyone want to go.

1095
00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:49,400
Speaker 4: You want an NBA one or not NBA one?

1096
00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:50,720
Speaker 1: Give me both?

1097
00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:52,879
Speaker 5: Okay. Any NBA player could be a top twenty beach

1098
00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:54,160
Speaker 5: volleyball player within a year.

1099
00:52:55,360 --> 00:52:55,680
Speaker 1: Okay.

1100
00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:59,760
Speaker 7: Doubling down on this, that one is a guarantee.

1101
00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:03,760
Speaker 5: Love like name name like the least athletic NBA player

1102
00:53:03,760 --> 00:53:06,600
Speaker 5: and there as athletic as the most athletic beach volleyball player.

1103
00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:09,080
Speaker 3: Okay, I think.

1104
00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:13,920
Speaker 5: Now you've got to TJ McConnell would be a top

1105
00:53:13,960 --> 00:53:15,400
Speaker 5: twenty beach volleyball player.

1106
00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:16,760
Speaker 1: We'll see this is wild.

1107
00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:18,680
Speaker 2: Okay, So he's the guy who never hits the ball

1108
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:23,440
Speaker 2: to the center. I mean six to one, Like, those

1109
00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:25,479
Speaker 2: guys are big. Those guys are huge volleyball players.

1110
00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:27,840
Speaker 5: Who's the best beach volleyball player in the world, No clue,

1111
00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:28,600
Speaker 5: No one knows.

1112
00:53:28,800 --> 00:53:31,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, Chase Buttinger is the one that stands out. Is

1113
00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:34,520
Speaker 2: exactly the NBA player that turned volleyball player.

1114
00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:38,120
Speaker 1: But he don't he played, he played. He played a

1115
00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:40,960
Speaker 1: volleyball growing up. Is the part trace The whole thing

1116
00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:43,160
Speaker 1: is like, give them one year, they could do it.

1117
00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:46,880
Speaker 1: Now they're athletes, So a part of me goes, you

1118
00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:48,759
Speaker 1: might have a point. But of course somebody that played

1119
00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:50,440
Speaker 1: volleyball their whole life is going to come back and

1120
00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:54,080
Speaker 1: go are you insane? Like no, not not a chance.

1121
00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:55,759
Speaker 1: They'd have to play much longer and all that.

1122
00:53:55,800 --> 00:54:00,319
Speaker 5: But maybe two years you're right to take down. I

1123
00:54:00,400 --> 00:54:05,920
Speaker 5: love to take Elmer Anderson. They're the top range volleyball

1124
00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:07,640
Speaker 5: pairing in the world and they don't even have a

1125
00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:08,680
Speaker 5: Wikipedia page.

1126
00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:10,839
Speaker 4: Ridiculous.

1127
00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:13,960
Speaker 1: You're helping get their name out there. So okay, I

1128
00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:15,560
Speaker 1: like that one. What's your other one?

1129
00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:20,320
Speaker 5: I don't like tomatoes on pizza like an actual slice

1130
00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:22,160
Speaker 5: of a tomato on top of a pizza.

1131
00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:26,840
Speaker 4: It's a wet it's.

1132
00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:29,080
Speaker 5: A little too juicy for on top of a pizza.

1133
00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:32,040
Speaker 2: I'm with you. If it's a roaster, if it's roasted,

1134
00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:36,359
Speaker 2: different drives are fine. Yeah, I agree, wetness of it,

1135
00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:40,000
Speaker 2: I agree. I'm glad we don't mushroom. I'm glad we don't.

1136
00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:42,239
Speaker 1: What about you.

1137
00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:44,480
Speaker 2: I don't have anything that compares to those two, but

1138
00:54:44,560 --> 00:54:47,920
Speaker 2: I do want to ask Mark's fiance, do you wear

1139
00:54:47,960 --> 00:54:52,000
Speaker 2: shoes in public? Because because that's a Virginia thing, people

1140
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:54,399
Speaker 2: don't wear shoes sometimes that's a thing that's a little

1141
00:54:54,560 --> 00:55:01,399
Speaker 2: as Yeah, it is, it's a known thing. Okay, just

1142
00:55:01,520 --> 00:55:06,760
Speaker 2: hang out drive foot barefoot anyway, just so you know. Okay, Okay,

1143
00:55:07,520 --> 00:55:10,880
Speaker 2: please write in Mark and mark fiance follow up.

1144
00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:14,839
Speaker 1: I've got an MBA one that you know. It's sort

1145
00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:16,399
Speaker 1: of a hot take, but hear me out on this.

1146
00:55:16,400 --> 00:55:18,879
Speaker 1: This is a thought that's been percolating over the last

1147
00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:21,040
Speaker 1: couple of days. It's on the heels of the shocking

1148
00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:25,319
Speaker 1: Celtic Sixers trade and with the analytics debate that was

1149
00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:27,480
Speaker 1: going off because there was a lot I'm sure you

1150
00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:30,879
Speaker 1: guys saw it of Jalen Brown is just Rudy Gay

1151
00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:34,800
Speaker 1: with better pr That was like a sentiment going around

1152
00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:38,520
Speaker 1: the internet, and I think I got a better comparison,

1153
00:55:38,560 --> 00:55:43,960
Speaker 1: maybe a hotter take Jalen Brown's last season and the

1154
00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:49,440
Speaker 1: overrated or underrated narrative surrounding it. It compares more favorably

1155
00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:53,719
Speaker 1: to Carmelo Anthony's twenty twelve thirteen season with the New

1156
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:57,360
Speaker 1: York Knicks. And I'm gonna tell you why. Both players

1157
00:55:57,360 --> 00:56:00,719
Speaker 1: were All Stars. Both players were All NBA second time selections.

1158
00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:04,000
Speaker 1: Melo finished third in MVP voting that year, Jelen Brown

1159
00:56:04,040 --> 00:56:08,880
Speaker 1: finished sixth. So really good results. Both players averaged exactly

1160
00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:11,600
Speaker 1: twenty eight point seven points per game and six point

1161
00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:15,319
Speaker 1: nine rebounds per game, exact same numbers. Brown had more

1162
00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:18,040
Speaker 1: assists and more turnovers. He shot the ball a little

1163
00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:20,680
Speaker 1: bit better from the floor, Mello more efficient from three,

1164
00:56:20,880 --> 00:56:23,640
Speaker 1: better at the line. Mello led the league with a

1165
00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:27,600
Speaker 1: thirty five point six percent usage percentage. This was in

1166
00:56:27,680 --> 00:56:32,440
Speaker 1: large part due to Amari Stotdemeier missing fifty plus games

1167
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:35,799
Speaker 1: with knee surgery. Brown had a thirty six point two

1168
00:56:35,920 --> 00:56:38,440
Speaker 1: usage percentage that ranked second in the league only to Luca.

1169
00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:41,280
Speaker 1: That was in large part to Jason Tatum missing sixty

1170
00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:44,919
Speaker 1: plus games coming back from the ruptured achilles. Mello's Nicks

1171
00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:47,680
Speaker 1: won fifty four games thanks to a top three offense

1172
00:56:47,719 --> 00:56:49,279
Speaker 1: that shot a lot of threes and took care of

1173
00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:51,719
Speaker 1: the ball. They fell short in the second round to

1174
00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:56,880
Speaker 1: the Pacers featuring Paul George. Mello had a rough series

1175
00:56:56,880 --> 00:56:59,200
Speaker 1: in that one. He shot forty three percent from the floor.

1176
00:56:59,239 --> 00:57:01,480
Speaker 1: He turned the ball over fifteen times in six games.

1177
00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:04,080
Speaker 1: Jalen brown Celtics won fifty six games thanks to a

1178
00:57:04,120 --> 00:57:06,759
Speaker 1: top two offense that shot a lot of threes took

1179
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:09,120
Speaker 1: care of the ball. They lost in the first round

1180
00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:13,040
Speaker 1: to the Sixers featuring Paul George. Brown shot forty five

1181
00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:15,000
Speaker 1: percent in the series. He had a lot of turnovers

1182
00:57:15,040 --> 00:57:17,440
Speaker 1: in the seven game series twenty five and then the

1183
00:57:17,480 --> 00:57:20,720
Speaker 1: real comp though, comes down to like this idea of

1184
00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:24,880
Speaker 1: how they were perceived by fans and players, like where

1185
00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:26,680
Speaker 1: are they? Are they top ten or they top fifteen,

1186
00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:29,640
Speaker 1: they top twenty. And I know we had those debates

1187
00:57:29,680 --> 00:57:33,040
Speaker 1: about Carmelo Anthony because we were doing it on our show,

1188
00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:35,440
Speaker 1: especially in the starters days, about the idea of like

1189
00:57:35,560 --> 00:57:38,720
Speaker 1: is mellow is he actually overrated? Now? I think Jalen

1190
00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:41,800
Speaker 1: Brown is a much better defensive player than Carmelo Anthony

1191
00:57:41,840 --> 00:57:44,200
Speaker 1: ever was, So that's a part of the equation here.

1192
00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:48,720
Speaker 1: But I think the comp is much more similar from

1193
00:57:48,760 --> 00:57:50,040
Speaker 1: those particular seasons.

1194
00:57:50,280 --> 00:57:53,800
Speaker 5: Your thoughts, well, once you said they both averaged twenty

1195
00:57:53,800 --> 00:57:56,320
Speaker 5: eight points seven points per game, I was one hundred percent.

1196
00:57:56,600 --> 00:57:56,920
Speaker 4: That's all.

1197
00:57:57,520 --> 00:58:00,000
Speaker 5: And they're like they're both such big eye test versus

1198
00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:01,880
Speaker 5: I'm telling style players.

1199
00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:04,640
Speaker 1: I think it's good we had those debates about Mellow.

1200
00:58:05,200 --> 00:58:08,320
Speaker 1: We did, and like now they're just amplified because of

1201
00:58:08,360 --> 00:58:10,800
Speaker 1: the Internet and the echo chamber.

1202
00:58:10,520 --> 00:58:11,000
Speaker 5: Of all that.

1203
00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:13,960
Speaker 1: But like there we had, Yeah, we had a lot

1204
00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:16,080
Speaker 1: of this with Melo of like, okay, he scores a

1205
00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:19,080
Speaker 1: lot by you know where you know, he's a max

1206
00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:21,520
Speaker 1: guy too. Now, like Joel Brown's making sixty million dollars,

1207
00:58:21,520 --> 00:58:24,480
Speaker 1: Mellow's making what was his deal? He was like five

1208
00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:26,360
Speaker 1: to one third. He actually took a discount if I

1209
00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:29,320
Speaker 1: remember correctly, probably so, but anyway, he was making a

1210
00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:30,520
Speaker 1: max deal at the time.

1211
00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:34,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good cop, all right, good good Also, yeah,

1212
00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:37,880
Speaker 2: Jalen Brown took the most shots in the NBA total,

1213
00:58:38,280 --> 00:58:41,120
Speaker 2: while Carmelo Anthony Anthony took the most shots per game.

1214
00:58:41,400 --> 00:58:43,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, and a part of it was by design, like

1215
00:58:43,840 --> 00:58:47,000
Speaker 1: as we and Jason Tatum part for sure, and how

1216
00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:50,360
Speaker 1: they sort of play their team. So all right, I'm

1217
00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:51,720
Speaker 1: glad that sort of hit with you guys.

1218
00:58:52,080 --> 00:58:56,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, Final one, Final one, Good morning, basketball bowies. This

1219
00:58:56,400 --> 00:59:00,120
Speaker 2: is Keith Van Horney from the YouTube chat. I was

1220
00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:02,200
Speaker 2: wondering if you guys had any names for the pod

1221
00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:05,000
Speaker 2: that were left on the cutting room floor. I know

1222
00:59:05,080 --> 00:59:07,360
Speaker 2: that rebrands must be difficult, so I'm sure there was

1223
00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:11,160
Speaker 2: a conversation about the name change way back then. I've

1224
00:59:11,160 --> 00:59:14,160
Speaker 2: been a loyal listener and watcher since the beginning of

1225
00:59:14,240 --> 00:59:16,120
Speaker 2: the starter's days, and it's weird to even think of

1226
00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:18,920
Speaker 2: you guys as anything but no dunks. Now, maybe one

1227
00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:22,600
Speaker 2: of the possible names was basketball Boys, turn Up, Love

1228
00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:25,640
Speaker 2: you guys Awesome. That's from Keith Rogers, also known as

1229
00:59:25,720 --> 00:59:27,919
Speaker 2: Keith van Horney on the treat chat.

1230
00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:31,479
Speaker 1: Keith dan Well, I think we've talked about this before

1231
00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:34,160
Speaker 1: a little bit. Yeah, I did find a list of

1232
00:59:34,240 --> 00:59:40,320
Speaker 1: Google doc oh there. It is titled TBJ Conclave from

1233
00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:45,240
Speaker 1: August twenty thirteen. So this is actually us trying to

1234
00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:46,880
Speaker 1: decide what we were going to call the new show

1235
00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:49,200
Speaker 1: after we couldn't be called the Basketball Jones anymore, and

1236
00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:51,600
Speaker 1: we were coming to Atlanta for NBA TV and what

1237
00:59:51,640 --> 00:59:53,880
Speaker 1: we were going to call the show because I guess

1238
00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:56,520
Speaker 1: oh is the whole thing. Lou Adler owns the rights

1239
00:59:56,560 --> 00:59:58,400
Speaker 1: to the Basketball Jones. Because of the Cheech and Chong

1240
00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:02,680
Speaker 1: yep song, we had to call it something else. By

1241
01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:05,800
Speaker 1: the way, this list or this Google doc I mean,

1242
01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:11,200
Speaker 1: other notes about house hunting. How's everybody house hunting going?

1243
01:00:11,680 --> 01:00:15,120
Speaker 1: We had calls scheduled with people from Turner Sports, and

1244
01:00:15,160 --> 01:00:16,920
Speaker 1: we had a lot of thoughts about how the studio

1245
01:00:16,960 --> 01:00:19,200
Speaker 1: and the desk were going to look. There was a

1246
01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:21,640
Speaker 1: lot of buzzwords like warm and intimate.

1247
01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:25,040
Speaker 5: Anyway, I would say we nailed that for our first

1248
01:00:25,080 --> 01:00:25,880
Speaker 5: season on the show.

1249
01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:28,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, we got at.

1250
01:00:28,000 --> 01:00:30,920
Speaker 5: The smallest desk for the biggest possible studio.

1251
01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:35,640
Speaker 1: So when it came to the names, it did look

1252
01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:38,320
Speaker 1: like we really wanted to try and go with still

1253
01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:43,320
Speaker 1: the Jones or the NBA Jones. That was like leading

1254
01:00:43,400 --> 01:00:46,160
Speaker 1: sort of on this list at the time, But then

1255
01:00:46,640 --> 01:00:50,080
Speaker 1: we wrote down so many possible names. Can I read

1256
01:00:50,120 --> 01:00:50,520
Speaker 1: you something?

1257
01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:51,160
Speaker 3: All right?

1258
01:00:51,160 --> 01:00:52,680
Speaker 1: This is going to sound like a tweet of the week,

1259
01:00:53,000 --> 01:00:55,280
Speaker 1: shout out here. But this is pretty funny, all right.

1260
01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:57,320
Speaker 1: So it starts with a bunch of Jones Once the

Speaker 1: duck somebody row uh. We kept it simple. The NBA Show,

1265

Speaker 1: That NBA Show, NBA at Large, No Dunks was on

01:01:50,760 --> 01:01:53,800
Speaker 1: Austin and Ellis has a ring to it. Knows what

1271
01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:58,320
Speaker 1: we had in ours, The Associates, the Basketball Diaries, Buzzer Beaters,

Speaker 1: NB A hole, This for you too, Scotch and Soda.

Speaker 1: This for you and me. Cuban, Pete and Gary talk basketball, NBA.

1274
01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:15,680
Speaker 1: Taco that's for you. We just decided to start in

1275
01:02:15,720 --> 01:02:22,480
Speaker 1: a brainstorm. Kirby's epic yarn, The Basketball Jones too. We

1276
01:02:22,560 --> 01:02:29,760
Speaker 1: threw out. I got more I got more than okay,

1277
01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:32,960
Speaker 1: the Jones, the NBA Jones, the Associates, the Mob, the Company,

1278
01:02:33,040 --> 01:02:36,360
Speaker 1: the Alliance, the Crew, the crowd, the Convoy. So we

1279
01:02:36,360 --> 01:02:38,240
Speaker 1: were I mean, we ultimately went with the starter, so

1280
01:02:38,280 --> 01:02:40,840
Speaker 1: we really zeroed in on the and then I'm almost

1281
01:02:40,840 --> 01:02:43,640
Speaker 1: done here now for these ones. And this really tells

1282
01:02:43,680 --> 01:02:45,600
Speaker 1: you the time of when we were doing this. We

1283
01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:49,040
Speaker 1: had the hashtags ready to go. So the Blue Chips

1284
01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:50,640
Speaker 1: hashtag TBC.

1285
01:02:55,120 --> 01:02:57,320
Speaker 4: We put a lot of effort into the hashtag.

1286
01:02:59,480 --> 01:03:04,120
Speaker 1: Episode the time, the air Buds hashtag tab TB.

1287
01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:06,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's an actual.

1288
01:03:07,840 --> 01:03:11,600
Speaker 1: Hashtag. The Crossover, it's another good actual show name. For

1289
01:03:11,640 --> 01:03:18,000
Speaker 1: another one that was hashtag TCO. The Bricklayers hashtag TBLS,

1290
01:03:18,400 --> 01:03:23,560
Speaker 1: the Nate Smith Jones hashtag TNJ. And then I have

1291
01:03:23,840 --> 01:03:26,120
Speaker 1: the final four on my list here. Our list was

1292
01:03:26,200 --> 01:03:32,000
Speaker 1: the substitutes, the replacements, the thirteenth man, and then somebody

1293
01:03:32,040 --> 01:03:36,600
Speaker 1: wrote should technically be fourteenth but that sounds weird. And

1294
01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:40,760
Speaker 1: then after the score was another name. So that that

1295
01:03:40,880 --> 01:03:43,360
Speaker 1: was a huge I know, because we were coming from

1296
01:03:43,440 --> 01:03:47,720
Speaker 1: the shre. That was a huge, huge list that we had. Yeah,

1297
01:03:47,880 --> 01:03:49,600
Speaker 1: a trip down memory lane there.

1298
01:03:50,160 --> 01:03:52,120
Speaker 5: I mean, honestly, it sounds like we picked the best too,

1299
01:03:52,760 --> 01:03:55,840
Speaker 5: the starters and no dunks. Yeah, so I do have

1300
01:03:57,280 --> 01:04:01,000
Speaker 5: some affinity for rim cast than NBA Holes.

1301
01:04:03,400 --> 01:04:06,760
Speaker 1: I like Jason Dole presents the Basketball a show about

1302
01:04:06,760 --> 01:04:10,160
Speaker 1: basketball actual, Yeah, jd is I remember any of those

1303
01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:11,280
Speaker 1: that list.

1304
01:04:11,760 --> 01:04:14,680
Speaker 8: Yes, there was too many on the list. That was

1305
01:04:14,720 --> 01:04:17,640
Speaker 8: the problem. Like it was very hard to narrow down.

1306
01:04:18,520 --> 01:04:21,400
Speaker 1: We did, of course, narrow it down and present it

1307
01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:22,640
Speaker 1: to n b A TV.

1308
01:04:22,800 --> 01:04:22,960
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1309
01:04:23,440 --> 01:04:26,200
Speaker 3: I remember being in that meeting, like we were.

1310
01:04:27,480 --> 01:04:30,600
Speaker 8: I was sitting in Nova Scotia, like I was overlooking

1311
01:04:30,640 --> 01:04:32,760
Speaker 8: the Bay of Fundy, and then we were on a

1312
01:04:32,840 --> 01:04:35,960
Speaker 8: skype or whatever. Yeah, and it was that's where probably

1313
01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:37,200
Speaker 8: where the duck thing came.

1314
01:04:41,440 --> 01:04:42,440
Speaker 3: A bird in the ocean.

1315
01:04:43,360 --> 01:04:47,080
Speaker 1: I just remember it really like, obviously we want the starters,

1316
01:04:47,080 --> 01:04:51,840
Speaker 1: but there was more of a self deprecating like the benchwarmers,

1317
01:04:51,920 --> 01:04:52,479
Speaker 1: right or something.

1318
01:04:52,800 --> 01:04:56,240
Speaker 2: That's exactly what I was thinking.

1319
01:04:56,320 --> 01:04:59,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then we talked ourselves out of that. I mean,

1320
01:04:59,440 --> 01:05:01,120
Speaker 1: what are we doing? Why don't we we're the starter?

1321
01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:06,480
Speaker 8: Is half of Turner called us the benchwarmers? Anyways, I'm sorry,

1322
01:05:06,560 --> 01:05:07,120
Speaker 8: but they did.

1323
01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:11,840
Speaker 1: They called this the NBA holes or the Great Canadian

1324
01:05:11,880 --> 01:05:15,440
Speaker 1: Basketball Show or the City Canadian Basketball show. Maybe yeah,

1325
01:05:16,400 --> 01:05:19,080
Speaker 1: all right, anyway, I was happy to find that, uh

1326
01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:23,240
Speaker 1: that Google doc. So there there's your answer. Very good

1327
01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:26,560
Speaker 1: or at least, uh, who something in Keith Keith something.

1328
01:05:26,840 --> 01:05:29,800
Speaker 8: Don't don't tell me that there's no more basketball podcast

1329
01:05:29,920 --> 01:05:34,040
Speaker 8: names out there, because you just there's like fifteen of

1330
01:05:34,040 --> 01:05:35,640
Speaker 8: those are actually usable names.

1331
01:05:36,280 --> 01:05:39,560
Speaker 1: Well, I mean I think ten of these are actual names.

1332
01:05:39,600 --> 01:05:43,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, Uh, nobody's used that NBA show.

1333
01:05:43,800 --> 01:05:44,600
Speaker 3: I'm surprised by.

1334
01:05:44,760 --> 01:05:47,000
Speaker 1: That NBA show is not bad.

1335
01:05:47,080 --> 01:05:52,960
Speaker 2: Actually trying to must increase the reach, you know, I know, yeah,

1336
01:05:53,080 --> 01:05:54,680
Speaker 2: go listen to that NBA show.

1337
01:05:55,080 --> 01:05:58,280
Speaker 1: You were they against us having NBA in the title

1338
01:05:58,360 --> 01:06:01,440
Speaker 1: or we didn't want NBA in the title or a

1339
01:06:01,600 --> 01:06:03,439
Speaker 1: question I don't remember specifically.

1340
01:06:05,200 --> 01:06:08,320
Speaker 3: They shot down a lot a lot of them.

1341
01:06:08,600 --> 01:06:12,160
Speaker 8: Yeah, and ultimately I think they chose the starter because

1342
01:06:12,160 --> 01:06:14,320
Speaker 8: it was on a list of five, and then they

1343
01:06:14,360 --> 01:06:16,880
Speaker 8: were just like, Okay, this is this is the least

1344
01:06:16,920 --> 01:06:17,919
Speaker 8: offensive to us.

1345
01:06:17,880 --> 01:06:19,160
Speaker 3: So go with that.

1346
01:06:19,400 --> 01:06:22,800
Speaker 2: Because it was leading into the Knights games, like right

1347
01:06:22,840 --> 01:06:24,800
Speaker 2: before the Knights games, they were like, yeah, this makes sense.

1348
01:06:24,920 --> 01:06:28,080
Speaker 1: Did make some sense, all right. And as for the

1349
01:06:28,120 --> 01:06:30,160
Speaker 1: no dunks part of it all, we've said this before,

1350
01:06:30,200 --> 01:06:32,400
Speaker 1: but no Dunks is what we actually called our like

1351
01:06:33,640 --> 01:06:36,440
Speaker 1: our company so to speak, way back in our partnership

1352
01:06:36,440 --> 01:06:39,200
Speaker 1: when it was just JD. Tass and myself. So that's

1353
01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:41,960
Speaker 1: sort of always been in the background No Dunks even

1354
01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:43,760
Speaker 1: when we were the basketball Jones I was. Again, we

1355
01:06:43,760 --> 01:06:45,520
Speaker 1: weren't like an official company, but it's sort of what

1356
01:06:45,600 --> 01:06:46,280
Speaker 1: we called our team.

1357
01:06:46,360 --> 01:06:48,360
Speaker 2: Well, when we were all moving to Atlanta, I remember

1358
01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:51,480
Speaker 2: you changed the group name for one of our conversations,

1359
01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:54,000
Speaker 2: you know, just just an app that we all use

1360
01:06:54,960 --> 01:06:58,680
Speaker 2: to the crew. You remember that? Yeah, yeah, I say

1361
01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:01,960
Speaker 2: I save that one. Save the change the name change

1362
01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:05,280
Speaker 2: on a group chat. Yeah, I say this one screenshot.

1363
01:07:05,760 --> 01:07:07,360
Speaker 1: Oh I did save the crew, didn't I that was

1364
01:07:07,440 --> 01:07:09,080
Speaker 1: one of the ones I said, Yeah.

1365
01:07:08,800 --> 01:07:10,480
Speaker 2: Oh actually it was the show crew. I take it

1366
