They're 19 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 1: just not regardless of which, there's a bunch to get into. Okay, 20 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: here's the first thing. Okay, here's the first thing. We 21 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,559 Speaker 1: lost yesterday in the Gold Cup. In the Gold Cup, 22 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: I had I don't really know what the Gold Cup is. 23 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: I think it's just teams from this side of it, 24 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 1: from the Americas, North and South America is my guests, 25 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: and apparently it's played all the time. I've been told 26 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: that this was not like four dudes that are on 27 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: the team and a bunch of guys fighting to make 28 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: the team, whereas for Mexico this was in fact their team. 29 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: That's what I've been told. I don't profess to be 30 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna sit here and lie to you, you know, 31 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: and lie to you and act like I watch soccer 32 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,680 Speaker 1: all the time or I care about soccer on a 33 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 1: regular basis. I continue to tell you that until the 34 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: moment comes when the best athletes we have in our 35 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: high schools or growing up play and stick with soccer, 36 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 1: we're always going to be doing this. And I had 37 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: a great discussion with some friends as we're watching the 38 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:34,519 Speaker 1: game yesterday, and no, I'm not gonna say match okay, 39 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,079 Speaker 1: because what I don't do is again, I don't lie 40 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: to you, and I don't change all the basic verbiage 41 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 1: to fit. It's like I'm not gonna call something a 42 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:46,920 Speaker 1: foyer and then only use American terms for everything else. 43 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say foyer and sofa and vaz no thanks. 44 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: I'm also not gonna say pitch. I'm not gonna call 45 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: the uniforms a kit, and I'm I'm not gonna say 46 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:05,679 Speaker 1: that it's a match. Again, I want all of our vocabulary, 47 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 1: all the vernacular, to match up. Try to not be 48 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: fake to you. So if it bothers you, sorry, but again, 49 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to be consistent. In America, we play 50 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: on fields, we play games, we wear uniforms. We don't 51 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: have to adjust to everybody else's pronunciation since we call 52 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 1: it soccer and everybody else calls it football. Wait, now 53 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 1: we're gonna call it. We're gonna call it soccer, but 54 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: we're gonna call it a kid like don't do both. 55 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 1: And if you call it football, you sound like a 56 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: fool because we take of football. It's Screen Bay Packers, 57 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: it's the Dallas Cowboys, it's the Kansa City Chiefs. Again, 58 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: wasn't our best and brightest was most of their team. 59 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: Their starters in the team didn't possess the ball, a 60 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: ton got pushed around a lot. Did feel like they 61 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: got their calls right and we could go to the 62 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: off side thing. But how many of you knew the 63 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: rules for a handball in soccer before yesterday? And I 64 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: say that because apparently the rule is not that if 65 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 1: the ball hits your hands it's a handball. It's if 66 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 1: it's in the natural motion of what you're doing. For example, 67 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: you're running down the field, not the pitch. You're right 68 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 1: out the field, ball comes whizzing by, and then all 69 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: of a sudden somebody else kicks it back the other 70 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 1: way and while running the ball grazes your hand. 71 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 2: That's not a handball. 72 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: If it's in a natural Now, if you reach out 73 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: to grab the ball, that's a handball. And I bring 74 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: it up because what appeared to be for all of 75 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: us that don't actually know what we think we know, 76 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: which is the basic rules of soccer, that because the 77 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: officials felt like he was falling down and it's natural 78 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:59,919 Speaker 1: to put your hand down. Again, for that one particular ruling, 79 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: they called it not a penalty. And again, it looked 80 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:06,719 Speaker 1: like a pedal to me and looked like a handball. 81 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 1: But I didn't even know the rule. And I think 82 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 1: it's hilarious. How many of us, myself included played soccer. 83 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: I played soccer for like seven years growing up as 84 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:19,799 Speaker 1: a kid. My daughters have played soccer, my son played soccer, 85 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 1: and I had zero idea that you could actually touch 86 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 1: the ball with your hand and not be a handball 87 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: if it's in the natural motion of what you're doing, Jay, 88 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 1: stud did you have any idea about that? 89 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 3: Oh? Not at all. I wouldn't even pretend to. 90 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 1: Right, Sam, No, No, I thought for sure, I'd ask Sam, 91 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 1: and Sam go, oh, yes, I know this ruling, this 92 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 1: comes from, This comes from back in nineteen seventy three 93 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 1: when the Argentines were playing. 94 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 2: I didn't. 95 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 3: I don't. I'm in the dark on this one. 96 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 1: So me too, zero idea. So and look, there's lots 97 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: of other parts to it, you know. I don't think 98 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: most people know what holding really is, like, well, he's 99 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 1: grabbing his shirt, like they actually allow some form of holding, 100 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,919 Speaker 1: like the rules a little bit different in basketball. People 101 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: don't know what a goaltend is. They don't know what 102 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: a charge is, they don't know what verticality is. There's 103 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 1: lots of things they don't know. And the problem is 104 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:19,599 Speaker 1: that soccer seems so easy, it does. It seems so easy, 105 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: like you can't touch the ball your hands actually you can't, 106 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: Like what do you mean you can't, Well, you can 107 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 1: if it's like a normal movement and automatically gets kicked 108 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: kicked against you and then it deflects or whatever. So 109 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:34,479 Speaker 1: my big takeaway yesterday is none of us really know 110 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: anything about soccer and nothing can be made more obvious 111 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: than in that the handball that wasn't called it probably 112 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 1: should have been. But whatever, it's disputable, it matters, but 113 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: sort of doesn't matter. Eloa, did you know the actual 114 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 1: ruling to what is and what is not a handball 115 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: before yesterday? 116 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 4: Doug, you have hit the nail on the head. The 117 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 4: best way I can describe it for the non pit, 118 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 4: non kit, non nil audience out there is it's the 119 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 4: equivalent of an American football commentator throwing their hands up 120 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 4: and saying, you know what, I don't know what it 121 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 4: catches anymore. I don't know what a catches when you 122 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 4: have these instant replay overturnings. It's happened so often this 123 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 4: year where you will see well versed commentators in the 124 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 4: sport say the same thing, I don't know what a 125 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 4: handball is and is not anymore, because just like you, 126 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 4: all of us, even people inside the industry grew up saying, well, 127 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 4: if it hits your hand of the penalty area, it's 128 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 4: a handball and a penalty care and during this year, 129 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 4: and I've got the I've got the law, the actual 130 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 4: laws of the game in front of me, and it 131 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 4: talks about this unnaturally bigger deal. But even despite that, 132 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 4: I see obvious things that are a handball that are 133 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 4: not called, that have nothing to do with that, but 134 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 4: they're still not called. So it's not just you. It's 135 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 4: people who are in the industry full time who kind 136 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 4: of throw their hands up and are like, yeah, I 137 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 4: don't even know what a handball is anymore. Before it 138 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 4: used to be. Intent doesn't matter. Even if it's not 139 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 4: intentional and it touches your hand or your arm, it's 140 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 4: a handball and a penalty area and a penalty kick. 141 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 4: But apparently not anymore. So you're not alone in being mystified. 142 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: There you go, There you go again. Like we could 143 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: go into the we we still suck, right, We could 144 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 1: do that. We could talk about the World Cup and 145 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: how they expanded it really kind of like Major League 146 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 1: Baseball's playoffs to make sure the important teams like us 147 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 1: get and kind of stay involved and stay engaged and 148 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: are always in it like all those things sort of 149 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: sort of matter, right, It's kind of brilliant from FIFA. 150 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: Obviously we would have been in this World Cup, but 151 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: in other World Cups you need America in. 152 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 2: It drives up the value. 153 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,959 Speaker 1: Of the TV dollars, right, and so all of a 154 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 1: sudden now they can make more and more money on it. 155 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 2: It's kind of brilliant. 156 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 1: Plus more teams, more hotel rooms, more cities, more involvement, more, 157 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,679 Speaker 1: more and more and more. It's all more of everything. 158 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 2: And we'll get. 159 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 1: To the other part to it is there's like a 160 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 1: there's like an old guard and a new guard thing, right, 161 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 1: Like Kristin Pulisicch decided not to play and he's like, 162 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: you know, I'm playing like seventy games overseas. Like I'm good, 163 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 1: I'll see you guys through a World Cup. The old 164 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 1: heads are. 165 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 5: Like beck when I was a kid, we used to 166 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 5: play for TVUSA every time. 167 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: And not realizing that, you know, like Alex say a lotless, 168 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: I don't think he ever played in Europe when he 169 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: did it in play seventy games in Europe, so you know, 170 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 1: even Landon Donovan took a mental break. But regardless of 171 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: all of that, getting into hardcore soccer talk, I'm watching 172 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: a match. I'm watching this that I played when I 173 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: was seven years old. Shout out to the Ballistics. That 174 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 1: was my first ever travel soccer club. I think I 175 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: was eight when I joined the Ballistics. 176 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 6: And. 177 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 2: I had no idea. 178 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: I'm like yelling at the screen that don't hurt ball 179 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: I was like the worst type of fan, which I 180 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 1: just despise not. I mean, look like even Jay Stu 181 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: who openly heckled and recorded himself heckling Jose Altuve yesterday 182 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: at the Dodgers game. By the way, ol Tuve hit 183 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: a home run surely thereafter the heckling. Good job. You're 184 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:41,839 Speaker 1: just the ultimate motivator, Jays two. That's what you are. 185 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 1: Mookie Betts last year in the playoffs, you did that. 186 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,319 Speaker 1: Jose al Tuve hitting a home run yesterday you did 187 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 1: that as well. Anyway, I'm like the worst version of 188 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: myself ever. I'm yelling with anger at the screen. 189 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 3: How can you not know that? 190 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: And then a buddy of mine text me, He's like, 191 00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 1: you know that might not have been a handball. It's like, 192 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: what are you talking about? Like he goes down on 193 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 1: his hand on the ball. It couldn't be more obvious, 194 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: like yeah, it doesn't actually have to do with that, 195 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 1: like what And it was one of those I was 196 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 1: today years old that I learned that I had no 197 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: idea zero, that you could actually hit the ball with 198 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: your hands, not be a goalie, and it not be 199 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 1: a handball. Now, look, most people will say that should 200 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 1: have been a handball anyway, but I had no idea. 201 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 1: And I think it speaks to the greater point about soccer, 202 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: which is like we all think we know something because 203 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 1: most of us played it. That was our first sport 204 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 1: growing up, right, And then what would you do? There'd 205 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,199 Speaker 1: just be like a little cloud of dust running down 206 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 1: the field, going back and forth. And now they start 207 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 1: out with like no goalkeepers or whatever, so it's like 208 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 1: we can't keep score. 209 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 2: And then afterwards then you do the tunnel. The tunnel. 210 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,439 Speaker 1: The kids will love the tunnel and they still get 211 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: Capri's sons. How great an invention. I'm where there's somebody, 212 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 1: I'm guessing Jay stew They live in Newport Coast, California, right, 213 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 1: which is pretty much the best baller place ever to 214 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 1: live on Earth. A sandy in the northern part of 215 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 1: San Diego, right, somebody invented the Caprice son there, and 216 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 1: it's just laughing without bringing this up. Caprice Sons still work, 217 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: still cool, kids. 218 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 2: Still love them. 219 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: Like I don't know anybody who buys Twinkies or ding 220 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 1: Dongs or Hostess anymore. I know they will survive the 221 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 1: nuclear holocaust, but Caprice Sons people still buy it. Matter 222 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: of fact, there are bars that serve drinks with Caprice 223 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 1: son and vodka. Sometimes they just use the Caprice hunt thing. 224 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:41,079 Speaker 1: Do you guys know that? Anyway, we all had the 225 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 1: same experience growing up where we played soccer until we 226 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: decided to grow up and play a real sport. That's 227 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 1: just a tinge of sarcasm in there, But because we 228 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 1: played soccer, we assume we know the rules pretty obvious 229 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: soccer they call football because you go touch with your 230 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 1: feet unless you're a goalie. Turns out, you can in 231 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: fact touch a soccer ball with your hand if you're 232 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 1: playing in the field, but there's some rules to it. 233 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,439 Speaker 1: It's got to be kind of natural movements or here's. 234 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 2: A is it. 235 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: Mauricio Pachettino, the Argentinian coach of Team USA, after the match. 236 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 7: I see his massive lesson for us, I don't see 237 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 7: is priceless. I think it's was an amazing tournament to 238 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 7: realize in the way that we wanted to grow. 239 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 2: I think that is a knight. 240 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 7: That is very very painful night, because when you lose 241 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 7: a trophy or you lose a game, is really really painful. 242 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 7: But the most important scene is is to have our 243 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 7: head up. 244 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, have your head up. 245 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:52,079 Speaker 1: Play most of our backups or really competitive and Mexico 246 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 1: beatis big thing is your boy learned not all handballs 247 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 1: or handballs that you can actually touch the ball with 248 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:03,079 Speaker 1: your hands and not get a penalty, although that did 249 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: appear to be a penalty. 250 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 8: This is the best of the done dot Leap Show 251 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 8: on Fox Sports Radio. 252 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 2: What but you Do? 253 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 1: I got Leap Show Fox Sports Radio that I got 254 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: Leap Show broadcast every single day right here on Fox 255 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 1: Sports Radio.

Of the Astros came to town, and 363 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 3: I'll tell you what. On Friday night did or Herscheizer 364 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 3: cause a stir so. For those that don't know the history, 365 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 3: the Astros cheated their way to a World Serious championship 366 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 3: in twenty seventeen, and the commissioner didn't hold any players accountable, 367 00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 3: no punishment, And when asked why you didn't vake the 368 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 3: World Series championship from the Astros, the commissioner said some 369 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:09,439 Speaker 3: mishmouth thing about slippery slopes. I don't know what is 370 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 3: worse than being caught cheating during the World Series in 371 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 3: which you want a championship in I don't know where 372 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 3: the slippery slope exists. But anyways, Dodger fans never forget 373 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,360 Speaker 3: what happened, and they never forgot that the Astros never 374 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 3: received any punishment. So on Friday Night, or Herscheiser, much 375 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 3: to his credit, God bless him, Bulldog on Friday Night, 376 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 3: I think it was Joe Davis. He said this on 377 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 3: the broadcast. 378 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 6: It hard the deep center field pot has on the 379 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,680 Speaker 6: round a turn of watch this one wedgs itself in 380 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 6: the bottom of the world and cam Smith flying into second, 381 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 6: anchoring there with another extra base. It for the Astros 382 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 6: double homer, double Philip and third against Casparios. 383 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 3: I have a lot of. 384 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 6: Open hold room, but in some ways they're swinging at 385 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 6: these breaking balls like they know when it's coming. 386 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 3: So earl, earl with a great line, and that went 387 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 3: viral and Astros Twitter really hated it. I retweeted hashtag 388 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:13,400 Speaker 3: never forget hashtag Houston Asterisks and got a crapload from 389 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 3: the Houston Astros of when are you guys going to 390 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:19,360 Speaker 3: get over this? It's been eight years? How about this? 391 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 3: If you guys were properly punished, we would probably be 392 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 3: over it by now. So I blame Manfred and I 393 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 3: blame Astros for having the lack of character to cheat. 394 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:33,199 Speaker 2: There you go, there you go. Okay, that's what we love. 395 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 2: Let's get to it. We hated over the weekend. 396 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 1: Our resident hater is nonther than Jason Stewart goes last 397 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:41,400 Speaker 1: in love because he loves the least first. 398 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 2: I hate because he hates the most. Chase two. 399 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 3: You hate to see the Astros sweep the Dodgers ever, 400 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,959 Speaker 3: but you definitely hated to see the Astros sweep the 401 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,879 Speaker 3: Dodgers this past weekend at Dodger Stadium. And then I 402 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 3: will had a really good seat to see the final 403 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 3: game of that sweep, one in which the well one 404 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 3: holdover from the twenty seventeen squad, Jose al Tuv I 405 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:10,880 Speaker 3: went to boo him and heckle him personally, and he 406 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 3: launched a home run in the ninth inning. I think 407 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 3: was a direct response to my heckling. He was asked 408 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 3: after the game about this heckling from yours truly. 409 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 9: Is that what twenty seventh stamps for the number of 410 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:31,119 Speaker 9: pitches you saw coming to the twenty seventeen postseason? 411 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 2: Huh?

When he 414 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 3: was asked afterwards, he said it rattled him for a 415 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:50,120 Speaker 3: little bit, but he gained his composure for his last 416 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:50,359 Speaker 3: at bat. 417 00:22:54,359 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 1: That was terrible trash talk, too wordy.

That's the Doug Gottlieb Show. 582 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 1: It's Fox Sports Radio, and oh, I am so excited 583 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 1: to have our good friend Rick bucheron. Of course, he 584 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 1: covers all things NBA seem on Fox Sports One. 585 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 2: You read his work at Fox sports. 586 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 1: Dot com and he followed the NBA for the past 587 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 1: twenty five years, Bucus synonymous with his coverage of the sport. Okay, 588 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 1: get me the state of the LA Lakers, right, DeAndre 589 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: Aytons signs Okay. 590 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 2: There was. 591 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 1: Brian windhors Is like, Hey, I never said this before, 592 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 1: but wouldn't be crazy if you know there's a window 593 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 1: there where Lebron could be moved. 594 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:08,680 Speaker 2: What's the state of the Lakers as of what is 595 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 2: this July. 596 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 11: Seventh looks it's not beyond the realm of possibility, But 597 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 11: the reality is it's more a reflection of the relationship 598 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 11: between Lebron and the Lakers than their ability to actually 599 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 11: do something, which is, he knows they're moving on. They 600 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:32,360 Speaker 11: know they're moving on. He no longer has the same 601 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 11: juice there and so a lot of this, a lot 602 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 11: of this is just trying to create as much leverage 603 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 11: for Lebron as he can in terms of his influence 604 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 11: remaining influence with the team. But the fact of the 605 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 11: matter is they're building around Luka Doncic and what they 606 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 11: would get back for Lebron. I don't think they have 607 00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 11: any issue with moving on from Lebron or moving Lebron 608 00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 11: at this point, But what they would get back for 609 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 11: him wouldn't be commensurate with what he's still capable of 610 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 11: doing for them. So as big as a contract is no, 611 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 11: but this idea that people want like or thinking of 612 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:21,480 Speaker 11: Lebron in the same terms as fans do NBA teams. 613 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 11: And it's been a couple of years now. I've talked 614 00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 11: to a number of you know, over the years when 615 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 11: he's suggested that he might look around or he might 616 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:33,960 Speaker 11: go someplace else, And I had any number of owners say, 617 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 11: I just don't know that it's financially worth it at 618 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 11: this point, because you know, it's a rental. You know, 619 00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:42,400 Speaker 11: he's their short term and it's not just him as 620 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 11: a player, it's everything else that you have to give 621 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 11: over or deal with as a result of Lebron being 622 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 11: part of your franchise. So I know there's the popular 623 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:55,479 Speaker 11: thing is he's going to go back to Cleveland. It 624 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 11: makes no sense for Cleveland at this stage for where 625 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 11: that team is and what they're building. Why do you 626 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 11: reach back. I mean it would be a nostalgic move 627 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 11: if certainly Lebron I think on some levels would invite, 628 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 11: you know, one last year in Cleveland, but for the 629 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:16,840 Speaker 11: arc of that team and where they are, it doesn't 630 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 11: make any sense and I can't. I can't look at 631 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:23,240 Speaker 11: another team where I say acquiring Lebron James makes sense. 632 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, so what do you think? Give me the best guess. 633 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 1: What do you think happens over this and into next year? 634 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:38,080 Speaker 11: I would imagine that, Well, what I'm waiting for is 635 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,879 Speaker 11: to hear whether this is going to be Lebron's last run. 636 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 11: And I don't know that he's decided that, but it 637 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:52,400 Speaker 11: it feels like it's simply because he could have opted 638 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 11: out and created his normal scenario of signing a one 639 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 11: on one and extending it and giving us the impression 640 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:05,439 Speaker 11: that he is he's considering playing another year, he didn't 641 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 11: do that, and I think this is this might be 642 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 11: the first time where he's actually exercised his option for 643 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 11: the final year and is playing it out. And maybe 644 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:17,640 Speaker 11: some of that is to check the landscape. I hate 645 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:20,800 Speaker 11: to say it, but check the landscape is a pasta 646 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 11: Is there a world where Bronnie and Bryce and Lebron 647 00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 11: can all play together? You know, whether that's on his 648 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:31,360 Speaker 11: on his bucket list or not. But then again, you 649 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 11: have to look at what franchise at this stage is 650 00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 11: looking to have Lebron and his two sons and would 651 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 11: be willing to do all that is necessary the sacrifice 652 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 11: is made to make that happen. It would be an 653 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 11: interesting box office draw, but as far as the development 654 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 11: and evolution of a franchise, it would be a hard sell. 655 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 2: Yes, it can be fascinating. 656 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,840 Speaker 1: My problem with them saying it's his last go round 657 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:04,719 Speaker 1: would be he would have to have the We know 658 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:09,399 Speaker 1: he wants a tour, right like he wants all the celebration. Sure, 659 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:13,560 Speaker 1: and if he wanted that, why didn't you know why 660 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,279 Speaker 1: the messaging recently, although the messaging never seems to add 661 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 1: up to the reality, So I'm not really that. 662 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 11: Would Honestly, I feel as if a lot of the 663 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:27,280 Speaker 11: messaging coming from from Rich Paul primarily is just trying 664 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:31,160 Speaker 11: to create the image or the impression. I mean, part 665 00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 11: of it is like I'm still playing for championships, Let's 666 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:38,400 Speaker 11: be serious. I mean, what what like that's just you know, 667 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 11: it's just lip service at this point. There there's there's 668 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:45,960 Speaker 11: not a world in which if that is truly the case, 669 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:48,680 Speaker 11: then you would be doing the Tom Brady thing and 670 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:52,439 Speaker 11: you would be taking less than you're eligible to take. 671 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: And and you wouldn't have and you wouldn't have had 672 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:58,600 Speaker 1: them focus so much attention on Brownie, right like, like 673 00:36:58,680 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 1: you wouldn't. 674 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:03,919 Speaker 11: All of that, all of that he's not as is. 675 00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 11: Could he be part of a championship team? Absolutely he could, yes, yes, 676 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:14,800 Speaker 11: But is he willing to play the role necessary to 677 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,440 Speaker 11: be part of a championship team? And that's that's the 678 00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:19,960 Speaker 11: heart of it. And you know that, I know that, 679 00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:23,759 Speaker 11: and fans may not recognize that, but I assure you 680 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:25,960 Speaker 11: that NBA franchises. 681 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 2: Do okay, Golden State Warriors, Yes, their status. 682 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 11: Oh man, that's an interesting, interesting dynamic there. I mean, 683 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 11: they're exploring to see what the market is for Kaminga 684 00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 11: and you know, the the impressions right now or are 685 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:47,400 Speaker 11: they're they're stuck in this place where again sort of 686 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,239 Speaker 11: like the Lebron question, you know, can we get better? 687 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 11: Can we trade him for something that's going to make 688 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:55,799 Speaker 11: us appreciably better? And they have not seen or heard 689 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 11: anything to this point that I know of that that 690 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:01,279 Speaker 11: rings that bell. There's a lot of talk about Al 691 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 11: Horford uh coming in there. I think that gives you 692 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:08,360 Speaker 11: a great indicator of what their what their mindset is, 693 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 11: which is We're we're going to ride this out, Draymond 694 00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 11: set Jimmy like, we're we're maybe we should have thrown 695 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 11: everything to taking one last run with these guys a 696 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 11: couple of years ago when they tried to kind of 697 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:27,520 Speaker 11: do both develop the young guys and uh and and 698 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 11: serve the remaining stars. But as of right now, it's 699 00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 11: we're just going to push everything. We're going to push 700 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:37,120 Speaker 11: all our chips to the middle of the table. We're 701 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 11: going to see what's the best team that we can 702 00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 11: build right now, and we're not going to worry about tomorrow. 703 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:49,319 Speaker 1: Okay, can they build a championship caliber team right? 704 00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 6: Like? 705 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:54,279 Speaker 11: I just I don't know. I don't know that they can. 706 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:57,560 Speaker 11: And this is the heart of it. It it it 707 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 11: starts with death. Not that step isn't still a very 708 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,279 Speaker 11: good to great player and don't tell me about making 709 00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 11: all NBA and all that, and that's who he is. 710 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:13,399 Speaker 11: But he just he can't do as much as he 711 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:17,319 Speaker 11: needs to with this cast around him. And if you 712 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:23,760 Speaker 11: look at Guards point guards, this is the next everybody's 713 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,239 Speaker 11: like in the Adels, his dad said, you know he 714 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:29,920 Speaker 11: could play into his forties, Yeah he could. But as 715 00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:31,839 Speaker 11: far as being an All Star as far as being 716 00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 11: a difference maker, Like if you look at Jayson Kidd, 717 00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:40,399 Speaker 11: John Stockton, Chris Paul, like all of them, even as 718 00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:43,240 Speaker 11: good as they were about taking care of their bodies 719 00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 11: and as smart as they were and all of that, 720 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:51,320 Speaker 11: he's right at the age where they can still play 721 00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:56,280 Speaker 11: and they can still be confident, but they're no longer 722 00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:59,839 Speaker 11: at a star level. And that is that's the role 723 00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 11: of the dice here, and that's the reality of where 724 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 11: we are is that is Death just isn't the megastar 725 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:11,160 Speaker 11: that he once was. And so you look at this 726 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:14,719 Speaker 11: team and neither's Draymond at the top of his game. 727 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:18,480 Speaker 11: So you look at it and it's really you know, 728 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:20,680 Speaker 11: who's who's going to make up for the fact that 729 00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 11: you don't have you know, nine, ten, eleven deep, that 730 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 11: you're you're relying on a second round pick in Quinton 731 00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 11: Post to be a factor and you're getting the most 732 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:34,640 Speaker 11: or got the most out of a buddy heel. It's 733 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:38,319 Speaker 11: just it's diminishing returns. It's just the reality. And I 734 00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 11: think that when people see the personal accolades or they 735 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 11: look at the statistics of the numbers, they think that 736 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:47,319 Speaker 11: these guys are the same as they were, and they're 737 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:49,319 Speaker 11: simply not stuck. 738 00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 1: Gottlieb Show here on Fox Sports Radio. Okay, where are 739 00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:55,799 Speaker 1: we with Giannis in regards to stay or go? 740 00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:59,880 Speaker 11: Everything that I have heard to this point is that 741 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:04,239 Speaker 11: he's still he's still saying that that he's you know, 742 00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,759 Speaker 11: there's a lot of innuendo about he didn't like the 743 00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:11,319 Speaker 11: Damian Lillard move or the Miles Turner move, and I 744 00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 11: think once it if that was ever true, and I 745 00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:15,880 Speaker 11: don't know that it was, but if it was ever true, 746 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:18,480 Speaker 11: once it was explained to him why they did what 747 00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 11: they did, and that they did Damien a favor, uh, 748 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:24,360 Speaker 11: and that by doing what they did with Damien it 749 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:27,600 Speaker 11: actually allowed them to sign a Miles Turner and be 750 00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 11: more competitive in the short term. This wasn't this wasn't 751 00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:35,480 Speaker 11: like pairing it to the stud This was wheezing out. 752 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:38,680 Speaker 11: How do we still stay in the mix? So I 753 00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:40,560 Speaker 11: think with all of that and the guys that they've 754 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 11: re signed, everything that I know to this point is 755 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:49,719 Speaker 11: as sexy as it would be to entertain, where could 756 00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:53,279 Speaker 11: Yannis go and what's going to happen next? Everything that 757 00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 11: I know is that he's still planning to stay in Milwaukee. 758 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:03,160 Speaker 1: Mike is the new head coach of the Knicks. Yeah, 759 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 1: how does what's the league saying about that? 760 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 11: Yeah? I mean, I uh, if this had been their 761 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:22,080 Speaker 11: plan from the start, they jumped out there and recruited 762 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:26,399 Speaker 11: or interview Taylor Jenkins and Mike Brown, and we're trying 763 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 11: to decide where they were going to go there, I 764 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:35,319 Speaker 11: think people would would would feel a little more confident 765 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:38,479 Speaker 11: about this. Nobody's looking at Nobody in the league looks 766 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:43,239 Speaker 11: at at at this move and has told me, Oh, 767 00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:45,560 Speaker 11: this is just what they needed to have happened, Like 768 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:51,759 Speaker 11: this is going to make the difference. Tom Thibodeau had 769 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:55,520 Speaker 11: his strengths and weaknesses. Mike Brown has his strengths and weaknesses. 770 00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 11: They're kind of along the same line. Mike Brown's offense 771 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 11: the game UH and understanding has evolved somewhat, but still 772 00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:07,719 Speaker 11: for the most part, he's a defensive oriented coach. He's 773 00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:13,480 Speaker 11: a little soft touch than uh than tips his approach 774 00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:19,000 Speaker 11: and his personality, but it's not it's not as anybody's 775 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:20,640 Speaker 11: looking at Mike Brown and saying he's going to be 776 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:23,439 Speaker 11: a game changer. And my concern is the last time 777 00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:26,000 Speaker 11: I saw him in a big market was in LA 778 00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:29,839 Speaker 11: and that was short lived and UH and New York 779 00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 11: is a lot grittier and a lot tougher than UH 780 00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 11: than than LA. The microscope is a lot more intense, 781 00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:43,799 Speaker 11: and I'll be interested to see how he handles that, 782 00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:47,360 Speaker 11: particularly with the bar set where it is. They have 783 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:48,839 Speaker 11: to be good, They have to be good right from 784 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:53,120 Speaker 11: the start, and we'll see whether whether he's capable of 785 00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:54,919 Speaker 11: meeting the mark. 786 00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:57,120 Speaker 2: Last thing. 787 00:43:57,160 --> 00:43:59,200 Speaker 1: Rick Pieker's our guest year on the Doug Gottlieb Show 788 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:06,560 Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio. Okay, Uh, there's there's a bunch 789 00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:08,280 Speaker 1: of teams and players we haven't. 790 00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:10,799 Speaker 2: Spoken about what's the next shoe to drop? Right? 791 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:14,719 Speaker 1: Kevin Rant's been moved, Lillard's a free agent. Okay, but 792 00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:17,480 Speaker 1: there's a bunch of guys who's that What's what's the 793 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:18,440 Speaker 1: next shoe to drop? 794 00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:23,480 Speaker 11: I we go back to the Warriors trying to find 795 00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:26,440 Speaker 11: a way to move Kaminga. I mean, I don't know 796 00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 11: that of the teams that you know, we look at 797 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 11: that are we're intrigued by as far as what are 798 00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 11: they going to do next? I know there's a lot 799 00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 11: there's still some speculation out there that Memphiss is testing 800 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:45,040 Speaker 11: the Waters with John rant and and what they could 801 00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:50,040 Speaker 11: possibly do or get there again. I think it's going 802 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:53,920 Speaker 11: to have to be I don't think they're Their impetus 803 00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:56,279 Speaker 11: to move him is we have to move him, we 804 00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:59,440 Speaker 11: have to find a deal. Like we're turning the page. 805 00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 11: I think it's they're exploring to see whether there's something 806 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:06,239 Speaker 11: out there for them to do. And I at the 807 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 11: end of the day, I don't know that they're going 808 00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:11,640 Speaker 11: to get something. They haven't been presented anything to this 809 00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:13,719 Speaker 11: point that they're going to be presented something that's going 810 00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:16,040 Speaker 11: to convince them this is the move to make. We're 811 00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:17,880 Speaker 11: going to be better as a result, we're going to 812 00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:19,560 Speaker 11: sell more tickets, et cetera, et cetera. 813 00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:23,759 Speaker 1: Rick Buker check them out at Fox Sports One.
