It's Night one of the draft. Night 118 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: one of the draft isn't the problem. It's when the 119 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 1: NBA thought, hey, we're really feeling it. We're gonna extend 120 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: this thing to two nights. Whoa Okay, Like last year, 121 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 1: I kind of get it because hey, Bronny is going 122 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 1: night too, and it's a one person draft. 123 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 3: And it was Browny. 124 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 1: But like this is this is where you know, the 125 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: NBA some things I don't understand, Like I don't understand 126 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:34,479 Speaker 1: why they don't make the the actual draft lottery its 127 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 1: own thing, its own television show, and a standalone product. 128 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, we won't do that. 129 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 1: We're gonna jam it in between Game three and Game four, 130 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: the second round of the NBA playoffs. But oh hey, 131 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 1: but but night too. We're gonna put this draft into 132 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 1: two nights. When the second night is is literally nobody 133 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 1: anybody is hurt, unless unless it's a unless you're the 134 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 1: fan of the team the guy is drafted from right, 135 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: Like like if you're a of Saint John's, you want 136 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: to see when R. J. Lewis gets drafted right, or 137 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 1: if you're a fan of Kentucky but you're not watching 138 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: the draft because I don't. I don't care where my 139 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 1: guy goes. I don't care that hey he's gone right, 140 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: Oh that's great, off, I'll find it out tomorrow. Like 141 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 1: this is a night where I go, Man, we sure 142 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: we needed this. We sure we needed two nights of 143 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 1: the NBA Draft. I mean, I think you could really 144 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: have Night one of the NBA Draft and go after 145 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 1: the first fifteen picks. Okay, we take it back to 146 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: regularly schedule programming and we can get you back when 147 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: something happens. But I mean, clearly night too. At the end, 148 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 1: you gotta spice it up with something. Man, this is 149 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: this is valuable real estate and you're basically running unopposed. 150 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 4: Right. 151 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 3: It's it's a regular. 152 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: Average night in Major League Baseball, it's regular season for 153 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 1: the WNBA. 154 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 3: The NFL has gone. You are running unopposed, and you're. 155 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 1: Putting out a product that's just Ah, I'm not even 156 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 1: blaming ESPN's coverage of it. 157 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 3: It's just you're putting out a product that This is why. 158 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: The MLB Draft isn't really televised because you have to 159 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 1: you have to follow it online to find out where 160 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: people are getting drafted. Like that's kind of where this 161 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 1: is one step above the MLB Draft. Like, if you're 162 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 1: gonna continue to do this, this is the night the 163 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,039 Speaker 1: NBA has to fix. Forget about Night one, this is 164 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: the night they have to fix because you have this 165 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: whole week with trades and free agency, and this is 166 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: where you gotta build some stuff in. This is where 167 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: you talk to agents and talk teams say Okay, we 168 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: don't want any business announced while the NBA Finals are 169 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: going on, but hey, how about we have something. It's 170 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: okay to do it a day or two later. How 171 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: about we have at night too? In the draft, like, 172 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: this is where you have to figure things out. This 173 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: is where it's all right, Hey, our standalone product here, 174 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: the NBA Draft isn't quite as strong as it could be. 175 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: So this is like, let's add stuff. But especially night two. Hey, 176 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: don't forget tune in Night two. We're gonna get the 177 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 1: details of a big trade or something else. Or Shaan's 178 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: is out and he's breaking all kinds of news and 179 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: people are still calling woj and woe. Just tell him 180 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 1: to blank off. I don't do this anymore. I mean, 181 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 1: this is the night you need to figure something out. 182 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: It's a Thursday night, it's a big night for television. 183 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 3: You gotta figure that out. 184 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 4: Well. And that's the thing, right, is that it's still 185 00:07:55,640 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 4: gonna outrate whatever rerun they were gonna show of something else, right, 186 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 4: or maybe maybe they draw crazy numbers for Cornhole. I'm 187 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 4: not quite sure, but I think part of it is 188 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 4: the decision making of, hey, let's go to two nights. 189 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 4: You're always looking at what the NFL does and their 190 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 4: successes and thinking, again, it's going to be better advertising 191 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 4: and marketing because if you want in on day one, 192 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 4: well you got to buy some day two, even if 193 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 4: it's at a discounted rate. So from a dollars and 194 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 4: cents it makes sense. Uh. The other part is you 195 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 4: couldn't make it a one year event because then you 196 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 4: openly admit, damn it, we only did it for Bronnie 197 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 4: and no, no executives gonna do that. It's because all 198 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 4: you were accused was with being a bunch of sycophants 199 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 4: and bowing to the moment. 200 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 3: We only we only did the second round at all. 201 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 4: But that's the thing I would love. Yeah, if an 202 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,719 Speaker 4: executive got in front of a microphone and flat out 203 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 4: said that here's an actual press conference. Yeah we're going 204 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 4: back to one night. We did it one year and worked. 205 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 4: You're a bunch of SAPs. Thanks for the views and 206 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 4: the and the looks were moving on. But I think 207 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 4: for the last couple of years we've championed the lottery 208 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 4: as its own standalone event. Right, Yeah, you've got the 209 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 4: ping pong ball thing I say doing. 210 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 3: On that night. 211 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 4: All right, you're on the clock. You got the number 212 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 4: one pick. Let's go, I mean doing all in one fels. 213 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 4: You have all these workouts, whatever else, bring in as 214 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 4: many guys as you want, and then it's go time, 215 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 4: like it's a fantasy draft. Come on, now, you're on 216 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 4: the clock, buddy. No phones, no phone, so you can't 217 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 4: get any outside help from anybody. But making the lottery 218 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 4: its own event and then picking up from fifteen on 219 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 4: because we saw it last night, Right, what do we have? 220 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 4: We had the Celtics and the Bulls were the only 221 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 4: two teams to actually do nothing with their picks. They 222 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 4: drafted where they had it. They didn't get a draft 223 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 4: pick conferred to them there and they and they didn't 224 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 4: trade it out. Otherwise you're trying to draw a diagram 225 00:09:57,960 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 4: to see how it all intersects, and it might actually 226 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 4: we had the secret code to solving you know, the 227 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 4: quest to find the Fountain of Youth, maybe better than 228 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,319 Speaker 4: John Krasinski did in that movie with Natalie Portman that 229 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 4: came out. Oh and Hucks was in there too, so 230 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 4: you got that going on. But yeah, I mean that 231 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 4: might be it, like it's a Dakota ring. Drink more ovaltine. 232 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 4: But other than that, you know, tonight is truly the 233 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 4: college experience. There's Proctor, there's some names we know, but 234 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 4: in terms of a grand celebration of your sport, it pales. 235 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 4: Like even yesterday, the number of people we talked about 236 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 4: it that had no idea the draft was going on 237 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,679 Speaker 4: really was kind of eye opening. Yeah, wait, what huh? 238 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 1: I mean sometimes the draft is a two player Now 239 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: NBA drafts are like one, two and maybe three player draft. 240 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 1: You're if you're lucky, it's a two player draft, right, 241 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: And usually the last couple of years it's been a 242 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: one player draft. The player last year was Brawdy, this 243 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 1: year it's Cooper Flagg. Well that's just how it goes. 244 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:56,680 Speaker 4: But I mean this year we got the gift of 245 00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:01,080 Speaker 4: Colin Coward. Yeah, the A Bailey, We got got multiple 246 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 4: guys caught on camera looking like they'd rather be beamed 247 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 4: anywhere else in the known universe then go play where 248 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 4: they were drafted. So I mean we did get some 249 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 4: gifts along the way, and then look, well we'll dive 250 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 4: deeper into teams as they come into focus, because let's 251 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 4: face it, there's a number of these squads that aren't done. 252 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 4: Do you think san Antonio's squad is going to look 253 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,680 Speaker 4: like it does? Now? Are they going to a fight for 254 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 4: who actually gets to be the point guard? We got 255 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 4: three guys go out there, make it fast, you know 256 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 4: that kind of thing. So it'll be interesting to watch 257 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 4: the next dominoes to fall. But in the event itself, yeah, 258 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 4: it fell short. And certainly Night two is highly unnecessary 259 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 4: except for the business of sport, which you know I 260 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:47,200 Speaker 4: celebrate like no other. Sure, except for that Revel guy. 261 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,599 Speaker 4: But I don't have his forty seven billion dollars or 262 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 4: whatever he's got, so I sell it here as where 263 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 4: as we watch pick to pick and just say, look, 264 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 4: I got a Northwestern guy drafted, so tonight I won. 265 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, No, you have to did. 266 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,679 Speaker 1: You absolutely did, because like Syracuse hasn't had a guy 267 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,199 Speaker 1: drafted in five years, but you had a guy. 268 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 5: Dressed since they paid mellow. 269 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 3: Right, Oh man? I mean look, and and you know 270 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 3: I would like to do it. 271 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: I'd like to see this. I'd like to see the 272 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: NBA say, listen, we we moved the two rounds. It 273 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: worked for Broddy, it didn't work this year. We'll get 274 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:27,199 Speaker 1: back to round two when Bryce gets drafted. Okay, when 275 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 1: it's time for Bryce James to get to the NBA 276 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: and Bron's gonna play with him, then we'll go back 277 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 1: to a second round. 278 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,079 Speaker 4: Well, I mean I would appreciate the honesty of it all. Hey, 279 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 4: by the way, because we have to complete the line 280 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 4: and the joke and often referenced for a Northwestern Wildcat. 281 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 4: Who's the last guy to get drafted? That was a 282 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:45,679 Speaker 4: Northwestern Wildcat? 283 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 3: Say it. 284 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 4: Before that? Before that, we go for a guy that 285 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 4: ended up playing at Kansas and had himself a career. 286 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 3: Rex Walters. Wow, Rex Walters, Oh my goodness, that's that's 287 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 3: taking that back. 288 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 4: Well, I'm claiming him like Ken Griffy Jr. White Sox 289 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 4: Hall of Famer, Tom Seaver White Sox Hall of Famer. 290 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:12,439 Speaker 4: So there you go. 291 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: Uh, but yes, we are getting near the end of 292 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: the second round of the NBA draft for Libry. Well, 293 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 1: the Knicks got Kobe and then they traded him, So 294 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 1: I mean, you know it happens, but I mean, really, 295 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: this is this is really somes some kind of second 296 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: round of the draft.

You talk about the incident with Clark, 421 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 4: but just in general, we talked a lot about her 422 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 4: post game presser a couple of weeks ago where when 423 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 4: she went off about fouls not being called against her. 424 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 4: I mean it was extended conversation of the stuff we 425 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 4: have with Caitlin Clark. Im look at Sophie Gunningham, Right, 426 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 4: she'd been in the league six years and then she 427 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 4: goes to a whole other stratugy. 428 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: She commits one foul and all of a sudden, hey, 429 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 1: here goes another million followers on social media. 430 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 4: That's all that just did, right.

So yeah, I 434 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,719 Speaker 4: mean there's there's a spread the wealth. The other is 435 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 4: you know, I think as a league, as much as 436 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 4: we've bemoaned and been a leaders of watching this the 437 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 4: last couple of years of missteps and where they go, 438 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 4: I think they're recognizing, you know, there is room for 439 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 4: other people to get some shine, and media members are 440 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 4: being smart enough to capture it as well. I mean, 441 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 4: there's plenty of personalities out here. Angel Reese has her 442 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 4: knee bounds and whatever else that that roll through. Still 443 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 4: waiting for Cameron Brink to become a star in her 444 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 4: own right right in her second year back off missing 445 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 4: most of last year with the injury. But yeah, well 446 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 4: for Kelsey Plumb in little extra shine and it's not 447 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,719 Speaker 4: because of past relationships or things of that nature. So 448 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,639 Speaker 4: it's it's good for the w to have more and 449 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:59,199 Speaker 4: more people get the shine. Whether that translates to ratings, 450 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 4: I don't know. But just like Adam Silver does with 451 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,200 Speaker 4: the NBA, I mean, start going into how many people 452 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,679 Speaker 4: are watching TikTok videos, YouTube videos or whatever else and 453 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 4: get in there and sell, sell, sell. 454 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 1: She know, Sophie Cunningham No, well listen, hey, so Sophie 455 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 1: Cunningham gets it and Kelsey Plum gets it right, This 456 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 1: is what players just just to finish with this before 457 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 1: we get to Clayton Kershaw.

Yes, Angel Reese does a 473 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: lot of stuff, and some of the stuff she says, 474 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 1: it's just really outlandish that he kind of goes in 475 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 1: one ear. 476 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 3: And out the other.

Right Asia 495 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:01,960 Speaker 4: Wilson and I've been getting some run for the last 496 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:05,120 Speaker 4: couple of days, and now Nike's got the Caitlin Clark's 497 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 4: coming out. I think it's Monday or Tuesday of next week. 498 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 4: All of those things and going on down the line, 499 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:16,159 Speaker 4: talk about soft drinks, talk about beer companies, whatever, you know. 500 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 4: You don't need to be moved massive amounts of products 501 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:23,199 Speaker 4: because it's a huge marketplace. A little sliver gets you 502 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 4: some run. The same thing here for the players. You 503 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,479 Speaker 4: don't need to try to really creep into the Caitlin 504 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 4: Clark's stratosphere. You just get into the peripheral and folks 505 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,680 Speaker 4: that are looking to spend money and get into the space. 506 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,399 Speaker 4: There's a trickle down effect that comes in. If you're 507 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 4: the number two, number five, number twelve, whatever that depth 508 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 4: chart is, and you're the right fit for a product, 509 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:49,160 Speaker 4: right fit for some type of campaign, you're gonna get 510 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 4: a little bit of shine. And right now I think 511 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 4: you know as a league embracing it, and the individual players, 512 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 4: particularly the veterans saying screw it. It doesn't have to 513 00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 4: be about the rookies. We're interesting people. We're I mean, 514 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 4: look at all the Cark insurance ads and whatever else. 515 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 4: There are all people that were in the league a 516 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 4: decade that started showing up on those beyond Caitlin Clark 517 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 4: and Jake. 518 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,160 Speaker 1: Exit out about a Fresca exit Swelling Dome, Jason Smith, 519 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:15,359 Speaker 1: Mike Harmon live from the Fox. 520 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,679 Speaker 3: Sports Radio studio. So just a blueprint there. Maybe you 521 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:18,440 Speaker 3: want to follow that. 522 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 1: Or if you have a great left arm and you 523 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,399 Speaker 1: can really throw a hook, you want to follow the 524 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 1: blueprint of Clayton Kershaw, who after today is three strikeouts 525 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 1: away from absolute baseball history. 526 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 5: Now the payoff Pitch. 527 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: Cold Strike three, three to go Dodgers TV on McCall. 528 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 1: Clayton Kershaw now at two thousand, nine hundred and ninety 529 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: seven career strikeouts after the Dodgers win today in Colorado. 530 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: And no, by the way, just for saying before we 531 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:01,880 Speaker 1: get to history, Clayton Kershaw's so far this season four 532 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 1: and oh and his era is three. So maybe not 533 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,919 Speaker 1: quite the Clayton Kershaw that we were used to, as 534 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 1: you know, first ballot Hall of Famer, but hey, uh, 535 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:13,880 Speaker 1: considering all the injury problems that he's had and all 536 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 1: the doctors plus starters that can't stay healthy. Here he 537 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 1: is at thirty seven, four and oh in an era 538 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 1: of three. Now it's not you know, de gram or 539 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:25,919 Speaker 1: Schemes or some of these guys. Yeah, but this is 540 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,159 Speaker 1: still this is a huge shot in the arm for 541 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,399 Speaker 1: the Dodgers. So just for a second on Clayton Kershaw 542 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 1: and what he's what he's doing right now when the 543 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 1: Dodgers need him. But three strikeouts away from three thousand, 544 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,119 Speaker 1: probably do it in the first inning against the White Sox. Oh, 545 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, is that too? 546 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:42,159 Speaker 3: Sorry? Sorry, Mike, that. 547 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:43,960 Speaker 4: Would be one hell of an inning. There's no question 548 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 4: about it. It's just a matter of how how long 549 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:47,160 Speaker 4: it takes. 550 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,359 Speaker 3: Right. But a couple of things. 551 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 1: First thing is this, and this is all I always 552 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,959 Speaker 1: look at things, and I always I kind of think about, 553 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 1: you know, my mortality and our mortalities. When I think 554 00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 1: about something that we're gonna see that, you wonder when 555 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: it's gonna happen again. 556 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,640 Speaker 5: Definitely take the under, so Kershaw. 557 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 1: Take the for all of us, uh speak the under 558 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: for Kershaw. At thirty seven, he's three strikeouts away from 559 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 1: three thousand. He'll get there in his next start. Okay, great, 560 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 1: three thousand, the magical number. Only nineteen people in the 561 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 1: history of Major League Baseball struck out three thousand, of 562 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 1: the most recent obviously, Justin Verlander did it a couple 563 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 1: of years ago, so did Max. 564 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 3: Schuzer after Kershaw. Chris Sale has about. 565 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 1: Twenty five hundred strikeouts now he's thirty six, but Chris 566 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 1: Sale is still humming it right, like this is not 567 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 1: Chris Sale. Who is I'm still just barely making it. 568 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 1: So Chris Sale is still pitching really well. He's still 569 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:43,360 Speaker 1: a strikeout guy. 570 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 3: Chris Sale should get there in another couple of years, barring, 571 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 3: barring anything crazy happening, right, we should see Chris Sale 572 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,679 Speaker 3: get there after that. 573 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 1: Again, I don't know if that's not the last three 574 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:01,479 Speaker 1: thousand strikeout pitcher I'm gonna in my life. I want 575 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:03,640 Speaker 1: to think I got you know, I'm thinking about years 576 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 1: and years and years and years. But there is nobody 577 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,360 Speaker 1: that I could say, Oh, they're gonna get there, right, 578 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: like Garrett Coles at twenty two hundred, but he's thirty 579 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 1: five and he's missing this year, and he's he's been 580 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: injury prone like you really think he's gonna get another 581 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:21,120 Speaker 1: eight hundred strikeouts after that, There's really nobody that's even close. 582 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 1: There's nobody that's even started their career you could say 583 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,400 Speaker 1: would get to three thousand strikeouts. No, starting pitchers don't 584 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:27,680 Speaker 1: pitch as much as they used to. They don't go 585 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: deeper into games. They're not taught to strike out, you know, 586 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,400 Speaker 1: they're taught to pitch to contact a little bit more 587 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 1: to save their arm and save the wear and tear. 588 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:38,919 Speaker 1: So I mean, really, you you get outside of Chris Sale, 589 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 1: which probably sometime in twenty twenty seven, maybe late twenty 590 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: twenty seven, that's it. I mean, we may not see 591 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 1: that again. We may not see a lot of things 592 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,400 Speaker 1: in Major League baseball. I mean, the next three thousand hits, 593 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: the next the next three hundred win pitcher, Like these 594 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,120 Speaker 1: are all things that we may not see in our lifetimes. 595 00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:00,879 Speaker 1: And and and it's really crazy because growing up, like 596 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,640 Speaker 1: we saw this every few years, not all the time, 597 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: but we saw guys, Hey, three thousand hits every four 598 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:07,959 Speaker 1: or five years, a guy would get there, right, three 599 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:10,199 Speaker 1: hundred wins, a guy would get there. Now it's like 600 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:14,680 Speaker 1: we really may not see those things happen again in 601 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:18,120 Speaker 1: our lifetimes. We could be fifty years away from potentially 602 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: saying and again, we may not see it again, because 603 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: is baseball ever gonna get back to Hey, starting pitch 604 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:26,399 Speaker 1: is gonna go longer? Right, are we gonna get back? 605 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 1: Or starting pitcher is gonna pitch like we're gonna pitch 606 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,199 Speaker 1: seven eight innings? Are gonna pitch two hundred and fifty innings? Ye, 607 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 1: that's not happening, right, pictures get to one hundred and 608 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:33,639 Speaker 1: seventy five innings, It's. 609 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 3: Okay, one hundred seventy five innings. We've gotta watch out 610 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:37,439 Speaker 3: for that. We got to go to a six man rotation. 611 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 1: All of these things like these are days in sports 612 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 1: that are gone and not coming back. So like when 613 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 1: Kershaw get in a three thousand, I'm me, damn sure, 614 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 1: I'm in front of the television to see that because 615 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 1: I want to think Chris Sale's gonna get there, But 616 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 1: I mean, if he doesn't, this could be the last 617 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: time I get to see that happen. I mean really, 618 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 1: And I love seeing history, right, It's one of the 619 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 1: reasons why I do what I do. I love sports history. 620 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 1: I love seeing this and there's and and especially baseball, 621 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,479 Speaker 1: which is built on history more than any other sport. 622 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 1: And that really might be and this really might be 623 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:07,960 Speaker 1: it for things that you and I grew up on, 624 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 1: that we saw so regularly, that was so celebrated, this 625 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 1: might be it. 626 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 4: Well, I mean, let's let's have a little more fun. 627 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 4: Going down the list of active players on the strikeout list. 628 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 4: You got Da Coole, next guy after him, Charlie Morton, Yeah, 629 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 4: not getting there. 630 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 3: Charlie Morton's fifty seven years old. 631 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 4: Two thousand, Yeah, where it says forty one, but I 632 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 4: question it. You Darvish is just over two thousand. He's 633 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 4: thirty eight. Then you got Gossman, Nola, Sonny Gray. These 634 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 4: guys are all twelve hundred or more later. I mean, 635 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:41,880 Speaker 4: Nola's only thirty two, but is he pitching another eight 636 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 4: years to get there? No, Patrick Korman, Jose Kntana, your 637 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 4: guy de Gram, I mean those are all the guys. Next, 638 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 4: I mean Zach Wheeler. He's thirty five, so that's not happening. 639 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 4: You go to the Wins, as you brought up, and 640 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 4: because I wanted to bring Kershaw back in here. As 641 00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:01,200 Speaker 4: dominating as he's been, he's at two fifteen right, he's 642 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 4: at two fifteen. The only guy that has the shot, 643 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 4: and you know, physically is he gonna get there? Is 644 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 4: Justin Verlanders thirty eight away, but is he gonna hold 645 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,040 Speaker 4: up physically? That's another three years? 646 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 3: Yeah No, that's hell no, Justin Verlander is not getting there. 647 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 3: That's right. 648 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 4: So like not get he's at two sixty two, he's 649 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 4: he's the next uh. And then you go for me, 650 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 4: he was at to eighty. 651 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 1: I would say maybe he's got an outside chance, like 652 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 1: maybe an outside at two eighty, but that that's that's 653 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 1: not happen. 654 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 4: And then we get down to Schures Are at two sixteen, 655 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 4: Kershaw at two fifteen. Uh, and it drifts from there. 656 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:38,880 Speaker 4: So all those metrics that we grew up, you know, 657 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,720 Speaker 4: and milestones, and I think this is the you know, 658 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 4: the larger point. Not only do we get robbed as 659 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 4: baseball fans, is you know, we don't get to see that, 660 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 4: And maybe we have to appreciate what we had as 661 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,320 Speaker 4: kids when we'd have three guys reach the three thousand 662 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 4: hit mark or strikeout mark, and we know in a 663 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 4: season and a half, uh, and then all retire at 664 00:30:57,560 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 4: the same time so they can go in as one 665 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 4: of the greatest classes of all time. But now we're like, 666 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 4: all right, we got to change the metrics. Does it 667 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 4: become twenty five hundred hits? Does it become you know, 668 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 4: two hundred wins. We've been talking about the two hundred 669 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 4: win threshold in Major League Baseball, you and I for 670 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 4: going on a long time, and I think that gets 671 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 4: highlighted here once again. The strikeouts as well. You can 672 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 4: have guys with crazy ass strikeout per nine rates. I mean, 673 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 4: we're watching Mizerowski with the Brewers. Is that going to be. 674 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 3: Multiplied out long enough to get them to three thousand? Damn? 675 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 3: I hope it. 676 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 4: It does.

Okay, cross them off. 824 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 1: The Knicks are gonna say, why are we going crazy? 825 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 1: Maybe with a new head coach with a little bit 826 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:40,759 Speaker 1: different philosophy, a little bit more of an attention to 827 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 1: detail on defense, that can maybe hide Karl Anthony Towns. 828 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 4: Jalen brought it a. 829 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 3: Little bit more. 830 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:47,840 Speaker 4: You can't hide them both when they're on the court together. 831 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 3: Man, Maybe just put them right next to each other. 832 00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:52,760 Speaker 4: Okay, Now, I know Wemby's learned some of that stuff 833 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,120 Speaker 4: from Doctor Strange where you can be in two places 834 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,560 Speaker 4: at the same time and all. But I don't know, man. 835 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 1: But I no longer think that Knicks are gonna do 836 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,719 Speaker 1: anything big and they're gonna say, Okay, how do we 837 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:04,919 Speaker 1: re how do we combat this that we still think 838 00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 1: except well, if Doc brings again, if Doc brings Giannis, 839 00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:16,359 Speaker 1: then all right, then if Doc brings Jannis. But but 840 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:18,400 Speaker 1: the but the Bucks are saying they're hoping that that 841 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:20,560 Speaker 1: the Doc staying would hope Joannis. 842 00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,720 Speaker 4: Would say, still wondering what what that meant. 843 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,640 Speaker 3: But I I really I don't. I don't see the 844 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:26,440 Speaker 3: Knicks doing anything. 845 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:28,440 Speaker 1: Look that they'll go get depth, and they'll go out 846 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:30,320 Speaker 1: and they'll make moves in free agency because they need you. 847 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 1: They need to need another guy that can score another 848 00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 1: option somewhere. They will do that, But the big moves 849 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:40,160 Speaker 1: not gonna happen because they're the Eastern Conference favorites coming 850 00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:42,400 Speaker 1: out of this season. Right, Yes, the Cavaliers had a 851 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:44,719 Speaker 1: great year, but boy they got they got knocked out 852 00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:45,880 Speaker 1: of the playoffs really. 853 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 3: Easy in the second round. 854 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:47,279 Speaker 4: Uh. 855 00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 3: The Knicks go into this saying, and I can see it. 856 00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 1: I don't one hundred percent agree with it, but I 857 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 1: get the philosophy of, Hey, we don't need to go 858 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:58,279 Speaker 1: crazy doing stuff because two of our biggest competitors are 859 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:01,279 Speaker 1: without their best players for likely most if not all, 860 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:04,000 Speaker 1: of next year, and the Celtics already seem like they're 861 00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:06,360 Speaker 1: they're rebuilding on the fly, and who knows what the 862 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:07,120 Speaker 1: Pacers are gonna be. 863 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:08,719 Speaker 3: Was this just a moment in time for them? 864 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 1: So yeah, maybe we don't need to do that. Maybe 865 00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:13,320 Speaker 1: maybe we need to just try to figure us and 866 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 1: wait till the trade deadline. If we need something to 867 00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:17,319 Speaker 1: trade deadline, we can do something of the deadline. But 868 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,319 Speaker 1: now I think the Nix will Moore stand pat and 869 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:21,640 Speaker 1: it's gonna be their next head coach comes in and 870 00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:23,560 Speaker 1: this is going to be a new way of doing things, 871 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:25,799 Speaker 1: and the new way of doing things will be what the. 872 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:27,320 Speaker 3: Knicks hope does it in the season. 873 00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 4: Well, I mean, you don't want to act out of desperation, 874 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:34,360 Speaker 4: and certainly the marketplace. When you see what Durant's trade 875 00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:38,800 Speaker 4: value was, what are you getting? I mean, I obviously 876 00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:42,520 Speaker 4: there's an age difference, but Carl Anthony Towns as a 877 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:46,840 Speaker 4: much different level of deficiency at one part of his game. 878 00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:49,839 Speaker 4: And even if we do the chronological thing of hey, 879 00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 4: he's that much younger, so dot dot at least Kevin 880 00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 4: Durant play some defense. So you know, if if all 881 00:40:57,239 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 4: you're gonna get is a would be could be kind 882 00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:02,400 Speaker 4: of guy and a bunch of second round picks, why 883 00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:05,680 Speaker 4: go into the marketplace, look at your Eastern Conference and 884 00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:10,920 Speaker 4: reevaluate as the the slew of things begin across the 885 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:14,480 Speaker 4: league telling you that I thought there would do something big. 886 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,120 Speaker 3: Now they're not. But speaking up big. 887 00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:20,800 Speaker 1: It's not every day somebody turns down a MAX extension 888 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:23,279 Speaker 1: in the NBA, But that happened. We'll get to that 889 00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:25,960 Speaker 1: next right here. Jason and Mike Fox Sports Radio,
