Before we even get to the show, doorra, 14 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 2: you know, your little sister did quite the job in 15 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 2: your stead and behind the scenes. She came to me 16 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 2: and asked, if you know, throughout the summer, if you 17 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:07,680 Speaker 2: guys could do like an alternating. 18 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 3: Have it No that no, she can have it. 19 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 2: No, No, it's fine, I was about to say, and 20 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 2: I told her no because you and I have developed 21 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 2: quite the rapport here. 22 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:19,960 Speaker 3: Uh. 23 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 2: She However, I will say this, while due to your age, 24 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 2: you're a more gifted and seasoned performer. She did have 25 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 2: a better top five NBA players than I think you 26 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 2: would have. I think her sports knowledge might actually supersede yours. 27 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:38,839 Speaker 3: I believe it. 28 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 2: The even though you were just in your spare time 29 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 2: this the day of the podcast, you were watching a 30 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 2: big basketball game at one forty fifth in Linux. Oh 31 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 2: And also before we get to the show, what happened 32 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 2: on your way to that basketball game? For the first 33 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 2: time ever? 34 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 3: Oh, I was recognized. 35 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 2: You were recognized. The poor fellow that recognized almost got 36 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 2: pepper sprayed. But yeah, it was the DOORA was walking 37 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 2: with a friend and go ahead, you can tell the story. 38 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 3: Kept like we were in the deli getting like drinks 39 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 3: because we're walking up the hill and I we were 40 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 3: both like dying, and he keeps looking at the deli 41 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 3: and my friend and y'alla was like, wow, did you 42 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 3: see that? 43 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 2: And I was like no. 44 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 3: And then once we walked out of the deli, he 45 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 3: was like waiting right there and like pretended like he 46 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,959 Speaker 3: was still walking, and y'all was like, that's the that's 47 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 3: the guy. That's the guy. And as he's walking up, 48 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,640 Speaker 3: he keeps looking back and then he finally just stopped 49 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 3: on the hill while and we were like, okay, we'll 50 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 3: just walk past him. And he's like, excuse me, is 51 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 3: your name Diora? And I'm like I was like no. 52 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,679 Speaker 3: He was like, yeah it is, Yeah, it is.

All right, here's so 59 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 2: welcome back to Youra. Here's what missed the cut for 60 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 2: today's show. Domingo Herman throws the twenty fourth perfect game 61 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:13,799 Speaker 2: in Major League Baseball history. Connor Bedard selected number one 62 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 2: overall in the NHL Draft. That I am finding out 63 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 2: in real time was last night and Crumble Cookies wants 64 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 2: Tobias Harris to stay in Philadelphia. I'm finding out in 65 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 2: real time that Crumble Cookies are a big thing. I 66 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 2: had no idea we had him actually on the set yesterday. 67 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 2: Great job by Tobias Harris with his spot because he 68 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 2: sponsors them actually in getting them a lot of free publicity. 69 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 2: None of that, however, makes the actual show diora What 70 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 2: are we starting. 71 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 3: With the Lakers? GM says that the plan is to 72 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 3: bring back the core, but not to go after big stars. 73 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 3: But the rest of the West is the rest of 74 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 3: the West? Yeah, is getting better this offseason. If you 75 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,119 Speaker 3: were the GM in LA, which moves would you make 76 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 3: to get Lebron one last ring? 77 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 2: So I actually think and I haven't you know, obviously 78 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 2: been a huge Rob Blinka fan, but I think this 79 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 2: is the right tact. Obviously, can you get Dame? That 80 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 2: would be great? You can't. I know some people want 81 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 2: Kyrie Irving that I don't particularly want Kyrie Irving, but yeah, 82 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 2: if you could flip out D'Angelo Russell for Kyrie Irving, 83 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,279 Speaker 2: yeah that's a net positive, even with all the nonsense 84 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 2: that comes along with Kyrie. But that's not a realistic option. 85 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 2: So the Lakers are in a spot where aside from Lebron, 86 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 2: every single guy on the roster should be improving because 87 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 2: of their age, with the exception of Ad who's thirty, 88 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 2: who at the very least should be maintaining of not 89 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 2: improving a little bit. So they have a very good 90 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 2: chance of being better without adding significant pieces. Now I 91 00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,599 Speaker 2: read last night they might want to go after Bruce 92 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 2: Brown at the mid level exception. That's fine, but Ruey Hachimura, 93 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 2: because of his age and now opportunity, should improve. Austin 94 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 2: Reeves he doesn't have to take the giant jump he 95 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 2: took mid season, but he's just turned twenty five years old. 96 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 2: He should still be improving. Jared Vanderbilt, whose option they 97 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 2: just picked up, should spend all summer working on corner threes. 98 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 2: He should improve. Now. I'm not a huge D'Angelo Russell fan. 99 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 2: He's never been a playoff performer. However, at the right 100 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 2: dollar amount, I don't mind him because he does have 101 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 2: a utility in the regular season and could be a 102 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 2: tradable contract at the deadline. The real question for the 103 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 2: Lakers is the machinations of are we gonna pick up 104 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 2: Malik Beasley and or Mobamba's options, even though at sixteen 105 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 2: million and ten million, respectively, those players are not worth 106 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 2: that money, just so we have those salaries in order 107 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 2: to include them in a trade if at mid season 108 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 2: someone comes available and you need to be able to 109 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 2: make the salaries match. Those are the types of decisions 110 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:20,159 Speaker 2: the Lakers need to be considering and making but I don't. 111 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 2: They're not gonna go after James Harden and they can't. 112 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 2: There is not a big ticket free agent or an 113 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 2: obvious trade piece to go get. It's going to be 114 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 2: manicuring around the edges. And I don't know that I agree. Sorry, 115 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 2: there was a gnat in my face. That's what we're 116 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,039 Speaker 2: going there. I don't know that I agree that the 117 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 2: rest of the West is improving. So let's, you know, 118 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 2: go down the list. Denver is basically going to likely 119 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 2: be the same team minus Bruce Brown, but with Christian 120 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 2: Brown being a year older, maybe a year better. We'll 121 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 2: see what director Michael Porter Junior and Aaron Gordon go. 122 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 2: But assume they maintain there is right now no holes 123 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 2: to poke in Denver. It is just it is very 124 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 2: hard to repeat. They are a team that had dealt 125 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 2: with bad injury luck in years past, had basically no 126 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 2: injuries to speak of this year, and then you see 127 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 2: how next year goes. The other reason for the Lakers, 128 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 2: in reference to the Nuggets, should I think feel better 129 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 2: than a four to zero sweep would indicate is not 130 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 2: necessarily just because those were close games, but because in 131 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 2: that series Jamal Murray, who's a very good player but 132 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 2: not an all time great player in that series had 133 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 2: an all time great series. The guy averaged thirty two 134 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 2: points per game in that series. If he averaged twenty 135 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 2: five points per game, which is more in line with 136 00:07:55,520 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 2: a realistic output, how does that change the series. And 137 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 2: then you go down Memphis. I don't think Memphis got 138 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 2: discernibly better. I don't think swapping out Tyas Jones from 139 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 2: Marcus Smart and you're gonna have twenty five games without 140 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 2: Jaw makes them better that the Warriors. I think Chris 141 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 2: Paul's better than Jordan Poole, but you then have to 142 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 2: build in that Staph is thirty five years old. Is 143 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 2: he gonna be as good? Maybe a touch worse, But 144 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 2: say he stays as good. Draymond's on the decline, Clays 145 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 2: on the decline, and they still don't have the size. 146 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 2: Phoenix is the team everyone's gonna say, oh, because they 147 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 2: added Bradley Beal. I don't know that they got better 148 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 2: at coach going from Monti Williams to Frank Vogel. I 149 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 2: know they don't have enough defense, and I know they 150 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:49,199 Speaker 2: don't have enough depth. So I think Denver has clearly 151 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 2: separated themselves from the rest of the West. But if 152 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:56,679 Speaker 2: the Lakers just run it back, they are to me 153 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 2: they a clear number two compared to everyone else in 154 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 2: the conference. And the one other thing about the Lakers, 155 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 2: The biggest improvement the Lakers can make is Anthony Davis 156 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:14,199 Speaker 2: taking the way he played post injury this year, that 157 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,079 Speaker 2: length of time without being hurt, the way he played 158 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 2: defensively in the postseason, building on that, and Anthony Davis 159 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 2: taking personally that in the three years since he's won 160 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 2: the title, all the other seven footers in the league, 161 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 2: all the other frontline seven footers, superstar type guys, have 162 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 2: made giant either leaps or massive accomplishments since AD won 163 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 2: his title. Giannis has a ring and a finals MVP, 164 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 2: Jokic has a ring, a finals MVP, and two league MVPs. 165 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 2: Embiid has a league MVP. AD on the other hand, 166 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:57,079 Speaker 2: up until this postseason has kind of gone in the 167 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 2: wrong direction. So does he take that personal and try 168 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 2: to reclaim at least He's not going to reclaim the 169 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 2: title of the best seven footer in the league, but 170 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 2: does he get at least back in the conversation that's 171 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 2: the bath for the Lakers. And then you hope Lebron 172 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 2: who averaged twenty eight seven and eight last year twenty 173 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 2: eight seven and six, maybe I might have it. You're 174 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 2: eight and six whatever it was, twenty eight seven and seven. 175 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 2: Call it that that Lebron continues to stave off father 176 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,559 Speaker 2: time better than any athlete ever. That's the path, all right? 177 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 3: Next, Okay, Travis Kelce loves winning and his role in Case, 178 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 3: but he knows that he's being underpaid. He says, quote, 179 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 3: you see how much more more money you could be making? 180 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 3: And yeah, it hits you in the gut a little bit. 181 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,719 Speaker 3: It makes you think you're being taken advantage of. Is 182 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,479 Speaker 3: Kelsey being passive aggressive with the Chiefs or just harmless 183 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 3: harmlesslie sharing his feelings. 184 00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 2: So I know th he's being passive aggressive because the 185 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 2: full quote talks about his post career plans, how it's 186 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 2: never Yeah he saw that Tyreek got thirty million, and 187 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 2: you know it raised his eyebrows. But that he's happy 188 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 2: in Kansas City, I think, go ahead. 189 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think he's trying to start anything. I 190 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 3: think he's genuinely just being like well, like it hurts. 191 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 2: Like well, and I could be making more money. Yes, 192 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 2: and so to me this is actually kind of a 193 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes story. But I want to stay on Kelsey firm. 194 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 2: Well I'll explain why in a moment. But on Kelsey, 195 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 2: Kelsey is wildly underpaid. I mean the I think people 196 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 2: would be shocked to know what Kelsey has made over 197 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 2: the last few years and what he's scheduled to make 198 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 2: over the next few years. As far as cash money 199 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 2: Travis Kelsey has taken home. 200 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 3: What are you laughing about? 201 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 2: Well, the reason I say that in the NFL, there's 202 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 2: your cap hit, there's a pro rated when you talk 203 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 2: about each year, how much money did Elsie put in 204 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 2: his pocket? Here is it year by year one million, 205 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 2: half a million, seven hundred thousand. That was his rookie deal. 206 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 2: Then ten million, three million, eight million, nine million. Now 207 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 2: the last three years nine million, twelve million, ten million. 208 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 2: As far as what he is scheduled to make over 209 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 2: the next few years, eleven and a half, twelve and 210 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:41,679 Speaker 2: then sixteen. So yeah, he has been way underpaid, considering. 211 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 3: He needs at least twenty at least. 212 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,680 Speaker 2: And so the reason he doesn't get as much is 213 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 2: because the position he's at tight ends don't they they 214 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 2: are one of the lower paid positions in the league, 215 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:57,679 Speaker 2: but he produces better than the top receivers in the league. 216 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 2: He could reset the tight end market. Now. He has 217 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 2: gotten his extensions early, which adds some security, but he 218 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 2: also has not pushed the team to pay him more. 219 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 2: The reason I said this is a Mahomes story is 220 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 2: because Mahomes is about to be the eighth highest paid 221 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 2: quarterback in football. There's gonna be seven quarterbacks that make more. 222 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 2: Mahomes is clearly the best quarterback in football, and Mahomes 223 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 2: hasn't gone to the team and said you have to 224 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 2: raise my salary. So the fact that Patrick hasn't adds 225 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 2: the precedent of guys we are trying to win as 226 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 2: much as possible here and in a capped sport, that 227 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 2: means we don't all always press our contractual advantage. Now 228 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 2: you can say that's bad business, but I would argue 229 00:13:55,920 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 2: that if Kelsey goes down as the greatest tight end, 230 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 2: he's wildly charismatic. He now has a successful podcast that 231 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 2: I'm sure doesn't make much money. He had his own 232 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 2: dating TV show years ago before the Chiefs started winning. Yeah, 233 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 2: like Chasing Kelsey. It was a dating show on VH 234 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 2: one or something or E or one of those channels. 235 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 2: He's just hosted Saturday Night Live. If he does have 236 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 2: real post career aspirations, continuing to make sure he's on 237 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 2: the best team in the league is very valuable for him. 238 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 2: Tyreek Hill was in a different situation. Tyreek Hill was 239 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 2: never going to be incredibly marketable, was never going to 240 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 2: have great post career opportunities because of all of his 241 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 2: off the field baggage, and he's just not as charismatic 242 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 2: as Travis Kelsey might be the most charismatic player in 243 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 2: the whole league. So Tyreek wanted to get paid as 244 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 2: much as possible with he had time left, you know, 245 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 2: as a superstar, So he made that choice. But he 246 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 2: went to Miami and he probably isn't gonna play in 247 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 2: too many more super relevant games. So I don't think 248 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 2: Kelsey wants to ever be in that position. He also, 249 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 2: at this point, I mean he's turning thirty four, is 250 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 2: the oldest great skill position player in the entire league. 251 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 2: So I do think he's left some money on the table, 252 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 2: but I don't think in the long run it's gonna 253 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 2: cost him that much. He does seem fine with it, 254 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 2: and he has become one of the most one of 255 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 2: the biggest celebrities in the league. And when you do 256 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 2: have the Mahomes standard of we are not pressing every 257 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 2: edge possible contractually, as long as we are winning, Andy 258 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 2: is here and we are competing at the highest level, 259 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 2: it really really helps the Chiefs. There's just no way 260 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 2: around it. Now. Chris Jones their best defensive player. He 261 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 2: is pressing his contractual edge right now, and I don't 262 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 2: blame him for I wouldn't blame Kelsey if he were 263 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 2: doing it. But while he doesn't have the off field 264 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 2: marketing opportunities Travis has, and as a pass rusher and 265 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 2: dominant defensive lineman, he plays a position that just naturally 266 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 2: gets paid more in the NFL. 267 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 3: All right, next, okay show he Otani right yep is 268 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 3: blowing everyone away. Earlier this week, he hit two home 269 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 3: runs and got the win with ten strikeouts in the 270 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 3: same game. This being a slow sports to day, we 271 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 3: were wondering would there ever be a dominant two way 272 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 3: player in the NFL. 273 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 2: I think there could be, I don't think there will be, 274 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 2: But the only spot that I think would make sense 275 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 2: would be wide receiver corner and if that could translate, 276 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 2: I maybe running back safety or running back linebacker. I 277 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 2: don't think we're going to see it in the NFL. 278 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 2: I think the Otani conversation is interesting because the conversation 279 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 2: this week is is he the best baseball player ever? 280 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:22,120 Speaker 2: And it's a fascinating kind of thought exercise because he's 281 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:25,639 Speaker 2: an excellent pitcher, but no one would argue he's the 282 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:28,400 Speaker 2: best pitcher in baseball. Top five maybe, but I don't 283 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,679 Speaker 2: think many people would say he's the single best pitcher 284 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 2: in baseball right now. He might be the best hitter 285 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 2: in baseball. Some people would say Aaron Judge, but he's 286 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 2: certainly in the argument, but it's not definitive, So he's 287 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 2: not the best pitcher in baseball. He's not definitively the 288 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 2: best hitter in baseball. Yet he's being discussed as the 289 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:52,880 Speaker 2: best player ever to play because he's the only guy 290 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,719 Speaker 2: that does both, and he's the only guy in one 291 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 2: hundred years that has done both at a high level. 292 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 2: I think you can make the argument he is adding 293 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 2: more value to his team on a as a single 294 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:14,920 Speaker 2: person as any player ever, more than any player ever 295 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 2: this season because he is a top five pitcher and 296 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:20,920 Speaker 2: a top two batter, and with Judge Hurt probably the 297 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 2: number one batter. I think it gets tricky because the 298 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 2: other all time greats did add two way value. They 299 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 2: weren't pitchers, but they were great fielders. So Willie Mays, King, 300 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 2: Griffy Jr. Barry Bonds were elite defensive outfielders and at 301 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 2: various times in their career all of them the best 302 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:52,360 Speaker 2: hitter in the sport. So I don't think it's hands down. 303 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:56,400 Speaker 2: I do think he's in the discussion as far as 304 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:58,439 Speaker 2: not the greatest player ever, as far as who's had 305 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 2: the greatest career, but who who has as the most 306 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 2: impact in a singular season. You know, my answer for 307 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 2: grace baseball player ever my whole life has been Willie Mays, 308 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:13,919 Speaker 2: with the caveat of it's clearly actually Barry Bonds. But 309 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 2: if you want to disqualify him because of the steroids, 310 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 2: so be it. And Griffy I think gets the short 311 00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,440 Speaker 2: end of the stick, so to speak. But I'm also 312 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 2: partially because my favorite player growing up. I do wonder more. 313 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 2: I do think this we will see another Sho Hey 314 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 2: o Tani way before we see someone in football try 315 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 2: to pull off playing both ways, because anybody that knows 316 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,680 Speaker 2: anyone that made it to the majors, if you talk 317 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 2: as a pitcher, if you talk to them about their 318 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 2: high school baseball career, almost all of them were the 319 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 2: best hitter on their team, and we're amazing hitters. And 320 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 2: then started focusing exclusively on pitching because of the success 321 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 2: of Otani. I do wonder if we will see another 322 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,160 Speaker 2: freak show athlete like this say that I can do both. 323 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 3: Don't know a lot of people say that Jackie Robinson 324 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 3: was like the best baseball player. 325 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't. I think they say he's 326 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 2: the most important and Jackie was. Jackie was an all 327 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 2: time great, a World Series MVP, a League MVP, if 328 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 2: I'm not mistaken, and a great player. But he has 329 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 2: outsized importance because he broke the color barrier. Yeah and 330 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 2: he was. Yeah, I knew he won in l MVP. 331 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:47,160 Speaker 2: I just checked. But and I don't again, I don't 332 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 2: want to short change what a great player he was. 333 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,920 Speaker 2: But if not for breaking he is a lot of 334 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 2: people say he and they're correct, is the most important 335 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,400 Speaker 2: player ever. But when it comes to the best baseball 336 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:03,919 Speaker 2: player ever, the names that come up are Babe Ruth, 337 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:10,160 Speaker 2: Willie Mays, some people say Ted Williams, Barry Bonds, and 338 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 2: lately some people have argued it could be Mike Trout. 339 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 2: I don't believe. I don't agree with that. What makes 340 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 2: show Hay so interesting is people talk about baseball as 341 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 2: there's the greatest hitters ever, the greatest players ever, and 342 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:26,440 Speaker 2: then almost separate category, the greatest pitchers ever, like Bob 343 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 2: Gibson and Satchel Page and Sandy Kovax, Roger Clemens, those guys. 344 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 2: The fact that o'tani, if he had played his whole 345 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 2: career in the majors, might end up in the top 346 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 2: twenty of both categories when no one else is in either. 347 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 2: You know he has any crossover is what makes him unique. 348 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 3: All right, next, okay, so now it's time for the 349 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,719 Speaker 3: return of Nick's tennis corner. 350 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 2: Okay, So all right, so we have a lot going 351 00:21:55,040 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 2: on here. I'm very curious into how sound these questions. 352 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 2: Wimbledon is done in England. If there was ever a time, 353 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 2: now is the time? Do you go? Right ahead? Go ahead? 354 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 3: Wimbledon begins this weekend and we know it's full of traditions. 355 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 3: So before we get into the question, I got us 356 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 3: strawberries and cream. 357 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 2: Oh you did, Oh, thank you so much? Next to me, Oh, 358 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 2: here you go, delightful. Oh, strawberries and cream for everyone here. Okay, yeah, 359 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,160 Speaker 2: I'll take some whip topping if I could take. Okay, 360 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 2: thank you so much. Go ahead and go ahead and 361 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 2: ask the question. Okay, yeah, back to you. Don't forget 362 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 2: the accent. 363 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,920 Speaker 3: As I opened up, feel like I could you give 364 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 3: notoriously bad tennis gambling advice, but give us some winners 365 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 3: for this year's championships at Wimbledon. All right, so painful. 366 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 2: You're right that I did give bad gambling advice on 367 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 2: the French Open. Not as bad as producer Matt who 368 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,439 Speaker 2: is you know, hiding today and staying away in shame 369 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 2: because he told us to bet on Nadal and Nadal 370 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 2: ended up pulling out of the tournament. But I went 371 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 2: with al Karez. I said, I thought Alcarez was gonna 372 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:24,360 Speaker 2: beat Djokovic, and then Djokovic whooped him, and Djokovic won 373 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 2: the tournament. I'm gonna pick Alcarez again. Djokovic is minus 374 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 2: one sixty, al Karez is plus three point forty. So 375 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 2: if you were about one hundred and sixty dollars. On Djokovic, 376 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 2: you win one hundred. If you were about one hundred 377 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:47,399 Speaker 2: and sixty dollars. On al Karez, you win more than 378 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:51,239 Speaker 2: five hundred. I like those odds. If you wanted a 379 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:55,199 Speaker 2: long shot, my heart would be with Kurios, but I 380 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 2: think Medvedev would be the right long shot pick. Here's 381 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 2: the thing, my tennis corners, I am going to I 382 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 2: am super into Wimbledon once it starts, so over the 383 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 2: next few what's right we can discuss it. I'm not 384 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 2: great at the previewing of it, as proven by my 385 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 2: disastrous French Open gambling advice that I gave again, not 386 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 2: as bad as producer Matts, but still disastrous all the same. 387 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 2: All right, take a quick break, come back, play some game, 388 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 2: likely maybe, and what if ant talk a little bit 389 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 2: about Bronnie James.

I 400 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 2: drink it every morning and love the way it tastes. 401 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 2: All great athletes have one thing in common. They take 402 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 2: care of their bodies, and a huge part of that 403 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 2: starts with optimizing whole body health. So free agency officially 404 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 2: does start tomorrow. AG one is a great way to 405 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 2: improve your health. What team we'll find the free agent 406 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,640 Speaker 2: who can improve the health of their team? And who 407 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 2: will it be? I actually think a sneaky active team 408 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:47,360 Speaker 2: in free agency is going to be the Spurs. I 409 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 2: think the Spurs are going to want to improve their 410 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 2: team immediately. So Wimby is playing relatively high leverage and 411 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:03,399 Speaker 2: meaningful game in a way that he otherwise would not be. 412 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 2: And so because of that, my answer would be the Spurs. 413 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 2: AG one is a really effective daily habit with high 414 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 2: quality sourced ingredients and is another reason why I trust 415 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 2: ag one each and every day. I may not have 416 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 2: all the answers, but if a comprehensive solution is what 417 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 2: you need from your supplement routine, then try ag one 418 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:27,399 Speaker 2: and get a free one year supply of Vitamin D 419 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:32,120 Speaker 2: and five free ag one travel packs with your first purchase. 420 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:37,399 Speaker 2: Go to drinkag one dot com, slash what's right.

I have gotten 426 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 2: back into writing the peloton every day like I was 427 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 2: doing honestly, but I did it basically every day for 428 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,399 Speaker 2: a year, and then when we started the podcast, it 429 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,160 Speaker 2: kind of changed my schedule, so I fell off a bit. 430 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,640 Speaker 2: But I've started doing it again a couple of months ago, 431 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:14,120 Speaker 2: and I pour ag one in my water of during 432 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:16,439 Speaker 2: my peloton RD. It works great. All right, Diorra, what 433 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 2: are we doing here? 434 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 3: Okay? So now we're gonna talk a little bit about Bronni. 435 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,919 Speaker 2: Right Yuick? So all you fixture Mike real quick and 436 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 2: get it. There you go. 437 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:28,360 Speaker 3: A mock draft has Bronni being selected to Atlanta. Apparently 438 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 3: Lebron loved it because he's He's shared it on his 439 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:32,439 Speaker 3: ig story. 440 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 2: Yep. 441 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 3: Was this his way of saying He'll go wherever Bronni goes. 442 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 2: I'm not certain of that because that could be read 443 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 2: as if that's where Bronni goes, then the whole you know, 444 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 2: the whole family's going to be supporting him. Another way 445 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 2: could have been saying that he's going to go where 446 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 2: Bronni goes. It is going to be one of the 447 00:27:53,600 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 2: most fascinating draft decisions ever. Where Let's say Lebron next 448 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 2: year plays at about the level he did this year, 449 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:09,119 Speaker 2: where he is not. Most people didn't think he was 450 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:12,200 Speaker 2: a top five player this year. Everyone knew he was 451 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 2: a top fifteen player. He made All NBA, he was 452 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 2: All NBA team again. So let's say Lebron's in there 453 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 2: somewhere from the eight to twelve range as far as 454 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 2: best players in the league this season. If it is 455 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:33,879 Speaker 2: made clear that whoever drafts Bronni, Lebron is gonna sign 456 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 2: with them for the league minimum, what does that do 457 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 2: for Bronni's draft stock. So let's say Bronni is the 458 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 2: fortieth ranked player in the draft. He'd be worth us 459 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 2: mid second round pick. If you have the fourteenth pick 460 00:28:54,840 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 2: of the draft. Is it worth overdrafting Bronni if you 461 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 2: are getting a top fifteen player to come along with 462 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 2: them for the league minimum, you could almost even look 463 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 2: at it. So like this year the Miami Heat took 464 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 2: him Jack West Junior at number eighteen. Would they forget 465 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 2: the brownie part of it? Would they have flat out 466 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:26,959 Speaker 2: traded the number eighteen pick for Lebron James on a 467 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 2: minimum contract? Of course they would have. So I do 468 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 2: find it fascinating. When we get closer to the draft, 469 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 2: there's gonna be a lot of discussions on it. Is 470 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 2: it right? Is it fair? I you know, it would 471 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 2: be very awkward for me to say it is inappropriate 472 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 2: for a parent with some influence or sway. It would 473 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:55,960 Speaker 2: be very inappropriate for me to say to say it 474 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 2: is inappropriate for that parent to use it to help 475 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 2: their kid. Considering I host this podcast with my kids, 476 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 2: and it's not like we exactly held an audition process. 477 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 2: I just did it because I thought it would be 478 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 2: good for them, and good for me and good for 479 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 2: the show, and it's what I wanted to do, so 480 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,240 Speaker 2: I'm not going to be a hypocrite there. I also 481 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 2: think there I understand there is some potential downside to 482 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 2: this for Bronni, there's also some real upside, which is 483 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 2: if he is a fringe NBA guy, if you're a 484 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 2: second round pick, it's a non guaranteed contract that the 485 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 2: team does not have a real investment in. But if 486 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 2: they spend a first round pick on you, it's a 487 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 2: guaranteed contract. But more so than the money mattering. What 488 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 2: matters is the team is invested in developing you because 489 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 2: they spend a real asset on you. So I get 490 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 2: I find it fascinating. I also don't know if Bronni 491 00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 2: behind the scenes is told Lebron, I don't want to 492 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 2: play on the same team as you. If I make 493 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 2: it and all of it, it's going to be one 494 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 2: of the most interesting, unique stories that we've seen in 495 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 2: sports because we never thought this was possible. We knew 496 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 2: brothers could play with brothers, and we've seen teams across 497 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 2: the league, you know, give Giannis's brother's contracts in hopes 498 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 2: of either acquiring Giannis or keeping Yiannis happy. We never 499 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 2: thought it would have with father and son. So it's 500 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:24,400 Speaker 2: just it's a very fascinating angle, all right, dear, Or 501 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 2: what's our game? 502 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 3: So today we're playing? Likely? Maybe what if it's been 503 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 3: a while since we've played. So here's a refresher for 504 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 3: you and the audience. I will ask you a question 505 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 3: and you will respond with three possibilities, each more far fetched. 506 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 2: Okay, what's the first one. 507 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 3: James Harden is a wild card right now. He hasn't 508 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:47,719 Speaker 3: made a decision on his player option yet, so what 509 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 3: do you see him doing. 510 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 2: It's likely he resigns with the Sixers. That's the most 511 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 2: likely outcome, not on a full max, but it's likely 512 00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 2: he resigns with the Sixers. Morey's there. He had two 513 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 2: amazing playoff moments with them this year, and then he 514 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 2: also had the last two games of the playoffs, which 515 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 2: were old James Harden playoff stuff. They have the best 516 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 2: chance to win, they need him, they can afford him. 517 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 2: It's likely that maybe he does what has been speculated 518 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 2: the last year, and he just goes back to Houston 519 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 2: and goes back to his old stomping grounds. Even though 520 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:28,479 Speaker 2: their world's away from a championship. What if is what 521 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 2: if the Los Angeles Clippers say what if James says 522 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 2: I want to go back home to LA and the 523 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 2: Clippers pull off a sign and trade for him. I 524 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 2: don't think that's a real needle mover for them, but 525 00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 2: that is the unlikely but somewhat plausible outcome. The most 526 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 2: likely though, is he stays in Philly, maybe he goes 527 00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 2: to Houston, with an outside chance that he ends up 528 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 2: going to the Clippers. 529 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 3: All right, next Okay. According to Woj, the market for 530 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 3: Kyrie is almost non existent outside of Dallas. However, it 531 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 3: seems Kyrie is more interested in the years than the money. 532 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 3: How is this going to play out? 533 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 2: It's likely Dallas overpays and folds their hand and gives 534 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 2: him three years guaranteed, probably with a partial guarantee in 535 00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 2: year four, and he stays with the Mavericks. That's the 536 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 2: most likely outcome, okay. Because the MAVs have boxed themselves 537 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 2: in with the Kyrie trade, they don't want to alienate Luca. Further, 538 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 2: I don't think getting in. I said it from the 539 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 2: very beginning that I thought getting in the Kyrie business 540 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 2: was a mistake. But they did it. Now they probably 541 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:52,560 Speaker 2: got to follow through. Maybe the MAVs are able to 542 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 2: find a team that will execute a sign in trade 543 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:03,560 Speaker 2: for Kyrie where they get depth back and that team 544 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:08,759 Speaker 2: gives Kyrie a a significant contract. I think that is unlikely, 545 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 2: but that is maybe that they do a sign in 546 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 2: trade with Kyrie the and I threw out on TV 547 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:19,080 Speaker 2: not to bring up the Clippers again, but a sign 548 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 2: and trade with the Clippers for Paul George would be 549 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 2: a dream scenario for the Mavericks. I don't know why 550 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 2: the clippers would do it, except for the fact that 551 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 2: they're about to open a new stadium. They can't trust 552 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,839 Speaker 2: that Kawhi and Paul George. Either one of them can 553 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 2: leave after next year. It's very difficult to trust Kawhai's health, 554 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:43,799 Speaker 2: and they might feel like we have to have a 555 00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 2: headliner in town when we open that new stadium. The 556 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:50,600 Speaker 2: what if is what if he just says screw the 557 00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:53,320 Speaker 2: money and goes to the Lakers for the mid level exception. 558 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,359 Speaker 2: But that is not happening. Kyrie has left too much 559 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:59,120 Speaker 2: money on the table to sign up for one year 560 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 2: twelve million day the Lakers. It's going much like the 561 00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 2: hardened thing. I think the most likely outcome is what's 562 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 2: actually gonna happen here, which is he stays with Dallas. 563 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 2: All right, don't even worry about the follow up question. 564 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:12,360 Speaker 2: Go on to Draymond. 565 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,640 Speaker 3: The Warriors got rid of their locker room problem, the 566 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 3: guy who got punched. Now the runway is open for 567 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 3: Draymond to return to Golden State. But will he? 568 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,719 Speaker 2: All right? It's like, yeah again, I'm sorry to go 569 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:28,799 Speaker 2: with the chalk answers here, he's gonna return to Golden State. 570 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 2: It's likely that he returns to Golden State on like 571 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:37,320 Speaker 2: a three year deal that matches up Steph's contract. Maybe 572 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:43,720 Speaker 2: he goes to Dallas, as Bill Simmons has been speculating 573 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:48,839 Speaker 2: as is a possibility, and again I don't think that's 574 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 2: gonna happen. But the what if is what if he 575 00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:03,240 Speaker 2: visits Sacramento just as as a negotiating ploy and is 576 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 2: just taken aback by what they're trying to build there 577 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 2: and likes the idea that he could stay in Northern California, 578 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:16,920 Speaker 2: spurn the Warriors front office, get a boatload of money 579 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:20,320 Speaker 2: from Sacramento, and then help build a winner there. That's 580 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 2: not gonna happen. Sacramento open up the cap space and 581 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 2: their speculation. But that's not gonna happen. Sidebar, is your. 582 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 3: Sister getting whi cream? 583 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 2: Annie stopped getting the whip cream. That's for Wimbledon. De 584 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:38,240 Speaker 2: Or's younger sisters here as well. I think she's really 585 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,120 Speaker 2: just hoping that at some point she could rush the 586 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 2: stage and take over for you. But now she's eating then, Deanna, 587 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 2: Now she's eating all the whip cream all right. 588 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:51,560 Speaker 3: Next, after reminding the world that he can still play basketball, 589 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,960 Speaker 3: Russ is back on the market. Maybe the Lakers could 590 00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:57,600 Speaker 3: use him. You know where does he end up? 591 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:04,839 Speaker 2: This one's tough because it can be far fetched though. Yeah, 592 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 2: but that the Clippers can only pay him three point 593 00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 2: eight million dollars, so I don't see that happening. I 594 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:20,840 Speaker 2: think it is likely he ends up with the Chicago 595 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:27,719 Speaker 2: Bulls because Lonzo's career appears to be over. Unfortunately, they 596 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:31,160 Speaker 2: can pay him more than the Clippers. He would get 597 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:36,160 Speaker 2: to play. He's a Jordan brand guy. I think maybe 598 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:38,719 Speaker 2: this would excite you. Diora well, I guess you're gonna 599 00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:40,719 Speaker 2: be in college. You're not even gonna go with me 600 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:43,759 Speaker 2: to the games? Oh I just got said maybe he 601 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 2: goes to the Nets. 602 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 3: You can get me tickets out there. I'll be at 603 00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:48,319 Speaker 3: the games out there. 604 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:51,440 Speaker 2: There's no there's no there's no basketball team in Santa Cruz. 605 00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 2: Well there is a league team, and there's also he's 606 00:37:55,160 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 2: too far. I'm close, and maybe he goes to the Nets. 607 00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:05,120 Speaker 2: And what if? What if is that he says I 608 00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 2: don't care about the money, and he takes three point 609 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 2: eight million minimum from the Clippers. But I don't see 610 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:13,239 Speaker 2: that happening at all. I think it's the Bulls or 611 00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 2: the Nets are the two teams most likely to sign him. 612 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:20,439 Speaker 2: Both of the Nets are an interesting one because since 613 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:22,920 Speaker 2: they don't have their own draft picks, they are not 614 00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:26,759 Speaker 2: incentivized at all to tank, and so they might want 615 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 2: to stay competitive. He still is a draw, He's still 616 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:31,719 Speaker 2: a popular player, but I think he ends up with 617 00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:40,320 Speaker 2: the Bulls. We answer your questions next, What's right? The 618 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:43,760 Speaker 2: Nathan's Hot Dog eating Contest is one day. Joey Chestnut 619 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 2: is one of fourteen of the last fifteen Some say 620 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,399 Speaker 2: that he's the greatest athlete of all time. Defend them, 621 00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 2: one could argue, usein balt Muhammad Ali, Michael Jordan. None 622 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:59,160 Speaker 2: of them could have survived, let alone thrived without the 623 00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:02,759 Speaker 2: one skill my client has mastered, which is eating. Now, 624 00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 2: can you eat without being able to run? You can? 625 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 2: Can you run without being able to eat? You cannot. 626 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:11,680 Speaker 2: There was never a period of time where people existed 627 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:15,399 Speaker 2: in eating, didn't He's the greatest ever. You know who 628 00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:18,400 Speaker 2: could be a better athlete than my client? Bring me 629 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 2: the greatest breather ever? Someone? If there are breathing competitions 630 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:26,520 Speaker 2: held worldwide and all of a sudden that guy is 631 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 2: just kicking everyone's ass and breathing, I might say, you 632 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:33,120 Speaker 2: know what, Joey, you're now the second go that was. 633 00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:37,000 Speaker 2: So that's the problem do you are with doing public defender? 634 00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 2: Is I do it so well that people then believe 635 00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:44,920 Speaker 2: that's my sincere Take that Joey suss and that's the 636 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:48,000 Speaker 2: greatest eater ever. That was one year ago today. By 637 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:51,800 Speaker 2: the way that we did that, the I mean, I 638 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 2: found myself watching that clip and being swayed by my 639 00:39:56,239 --> 00:40:00,920 Speaker 2: own persuasiveness, in my own brilliance of argument. But that 640 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:04,399 Speaker 2: was a public defender where I defend seemingly the indefensible. 641 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,759 Speaker 2: So that's the little recap from a year ago. What's up? 642 00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:12,440 Speaker 2: It also reminds me how much better our new studio 643 00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 2: is than our living room where we were doing it. 644 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:17,360 Speaker 2: All right, dear, or what are the fan questions today? 645 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 3: Okay? Noah Rodriguez asked, The Calves are reportedly shopping Darius Garland. 646 00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:27,239 Speaker 3: If the Spurs can get him, where does that put 647 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 3: them in the Western Conference race for next year, assuming 648 00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:32,440 Speaker 3: they trade Kelton and Picks? 649 00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:35,279 Speaker 2: Well, then, listen, the Spurs are not competing in the 650 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:38,120 Speaker 2: West next year. I think that when I was saying 651 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:42,319 Speaker 2: they could be players in free agency, it's so they 652 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 2: could maybe hope to get to forty wins, be around 653 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:49,439 Speaker 2: five hundred, But they're not competing in the West next year. 654 00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:53,640 Speaker 2: So I but I like Garland, and I do think 655 00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:58,680 Speaker 2: the Calves need to probably rework some things if they're 656 00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:01,680 Speaker 2: going to try to take the leap to from nice 657 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:06,160 Speaker 2: story to at least fringe contender. All right, next, Jack 658 00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 2: Fisher asked, yep, No, you're right, go ahead. 659 00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:13,160 Speaker 3: Which NBA team is most likely to take a huge 660 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 3: leap next season like the Kings did last season. 661 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:21,040 Speaker 2: That's a really hard one. As far as you know 662 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:25,240 Speaker 2: the Kings, you could see it coming a bit because 663 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:29,480 Speaker 2: of the Sabonis trade. If you liked Sabonis. My answer, 664 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:31,920 Speaker 2: though I don't know if this will be as shocking 665 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:35,680 Speaker 2: as the Kings, My answer is gonna be okayc I 666 00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 2: like what they've built. If you believe in Chet, that's 667 00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:42,120 Speaker 2: a top three pick they have coming back from last 668 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,839 Speaker 2: year never played for them. Shay was sensational this year. 669 00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:50,200 Speaker 2: I like giddy. I like what they've built. Now the 670 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:53,920 Speaker 2: MAVs are gonna be way better. But that's a different 671 00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:56,279 Speaker 2: thing because the MAVs were awesome a year ago then 672 00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:59,320 Speaker 2: had a down year. So my answer would be okay, 673 00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:04,680 Speaker 2: see that could go from and also ran to maybe 674 00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 2: a top five seed. My answers, okay, see, but again 675 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:11,680 Speaker 2: that's way too early and that's pre free agency, so 676 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:13,880 Speaker 2: all of that can change next okay. 677 00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:17,439 Speaker 3: Scott Frazer asked Nick, where do you see d Hop 678 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:20,400 Speaker 3: going and does he make a difference in Casey or 679 00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:23,320 Speaker 3: Buffalo or does he take the bag and go to 680 00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 3: Houston or New England. 681 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:29,680 Speaker 2: Listen, I d Hop clearly doesn't want to sign in 682 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,200 Speaker 2: New England, but he needs. I mean, they've made him 683 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:35,360 Speaker 2: an offer, he's done the visit, it's been weeks. He needs. 684 00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:38,279 Speaker 2: He wants a team with an excellent quarterback to go 685 00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 2: after him. Thus far, it hasn't happened. I do think 686 00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:43,919 Speaker 2: he would help Buffalo a lot. I think you can't 687 00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 2: City a little. But Buffalo doesn't have a number two receiver, 688 00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:51,760 Speaker 2: sorry Gabe Davis, and their number one receiver is angry 689 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 2: at their quarterback. So I think Buffalo he'd move the 690 00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:57,040 Speaker 2: needle on the most. But that doesn't seem to be happening. 691 00:42:57,080 --> 00:42:59,359 Speaker 2: They're in a tough salary cap situation, all right. 692 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:02,840 Speaker 3: Next Michael Thomas asks, how do you see the Wizards 693 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:07,800 Speaker 3: rebuild going? Do you see Pool staying long term? I 694 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:11,200 Speaker 3: think we're ten years too late, but curious about what 695 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 3: you think our outcome will be in the next few years. 696 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:16,759 Speaker 2: Well, I think you're gonna be terrible the next few years. 697 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:18,960 Speaker 2: But I think that's the point. The point is to 698 00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:21,359 Speaker 2: rip it down. You're right that it's ten years too late, 699 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:24,080 Speaker 2: but you had to start over. You finally did. Pool is, 700 00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:26,520 Speaker 2: you know, is going to score a bunch of points 701 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:29,520 Speaker 2: and play no defense, and by the time you're ready 702 00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:31,600 Speaker 2: to win, Pool won't be a piece of it. But 703 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:35,480 Speaker 2: you're now at least finally admitting the team is under 704 00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:37,759 Speaker 2: Michael Winger, that you needed to start over. Next. 705 00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:42,360 Speaker 3: Ryan Johnson asked, what's your favorite sports man? 706 00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:44,080 Speaker 2: I can ask that all the time, and I don't 707 00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,319 Speaker 2: really have one. I don't know. I mean Space Jam 708 00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:52,520 Speaker 2: the original or the remake? The remake the original? I 709 00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 2: mean that was very good. 710 00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:54,839 Speaker 3: I don't think it counts. 711 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 2: I mean obviously, rock the whole Rocky slash Creed. You know, 712 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:05,160 Speaker 2: family of movies are the best ones. People love Hoosiers. 713 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:07,239 Speaker 2: I don't love Hoosiers. People love Field of Dreams. I 714 00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:09,600 Speaker 2: don't love Field of Dreams. I did love ten Cup, 715 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,759 Speaker 2: but that's almost more of a romance than a sports movie. 716 00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:19,000 Speaker 2: If Happy Gilmore install is a good movie, Hoop Dreams 717 00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:20,080 Speaker 2: is a documentary. 718 00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:21,040 Speaker 3: Uh. 719 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:26,560 Speaker 2: If Happy Gilmore accounts, Happy Gilmore is my answer, I 720 00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 2: mean that's yeah, that is my answer. Actually, Happy Gilmore 721 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:34,000 Speaker 2: is my answer. All right, go ahead, and Gabe's questions 722 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:34,600 Speaker 2: the last one. 723 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:38,760 Speaker 3: Wait, there's a bit of a follow up. Yeah, okay, 724 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:40,799 Speaker 3: Public Defense two. 725 00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:41,800 Speaker 2: I don't need to do that. 726 00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:43,560 Speaker 3: I think you might. 727 00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:45,600 Speaker 2: I don't need to do that. I would have done 728 00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:48,200 Speaker 2: it if you know my scenes hadn't been cut from 729 00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:51,880 Speaker 2: the movie. But since they haven't, I don't see I 730 00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:53,239 Speaker 2: was supposed to be in the movie. But you know 731 00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:54,480 Speaker 2: we couldn't couldn't make that. 732 00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:58,399 Speaker 3: I was supposed to be in the in the video. 733 00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:01,239 Speaker 2: No, well, I'm I'm just telling you. You know, we 734 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:04,400 Speaker 2: don't have to get into it. I'm not gonna do that. 735 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:10,120 Speaker 2: The unlike the Jordan's sikaphants that need to necessarily defend 736 00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:12,839 Speaker 2: each and everything he's ever done, I thought I'll let 737 00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:15,439 Speaker 2: Space Jam two stand on its own. All right. What's 738 00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:16,160 Speaker 2: Gabe's question? 739 00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,000 Speaker 3: Has Deanna eaten all the whip cream and bear? 740 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:20,879 Speaker 2: I don't know, but that we got in the show 741 00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:22,719 Speaker 2: because we got to see what she's doing in the 742 00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 2: back of this store.
