WEBVTT - Hour 3 - Lakers Make Headlines, Dan Woike

0:00:00.720 --> 0:00:03.559
<v Speaker 1>You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox

0:00:03.600 --> 0:00:05.640
<v Speaker 1>Sports Radio Final Hour.

0:00:05.960 --> 0:00:09.840
<v Speaker 2>It's a meet Friday. Just went out and inspected the

0:00:10.080 --> 0:00:15.720
<v Speaker 2>Traeger grills. They look good. Steak fajitas, chicken fajitas. Nobody, absolutely,

0:00:15.760 --> 0:00:22.360
<v Speaker 2>nobody has it better than we do. Right No, alrighty

0:00:22.400 --> 0:00:24.680
<v Speaker 2>staut of the Day brought to you by Pennini America,

0:00:24.720 --> 0:00:27.640
<v Speaker 2>the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show. More

0:00:27.680 --> 0:00:30.320
<v Speaker 2>phone calls coming up. We've touched on a variety of topics,

0:00:30.320 --> 0:00:33.159
<v Speaker 2>certainly the Lakers with JJ Reddick. We will check in

0:00:33.200 --> 0:00:36.400
<v Speaker 2>with the Lakers, and the writer for the La Times,

0:00:36.479 --> 0:00:39.120
<v Speaker 2>Dan Witki, covers the Lakers. We'll ask him if this

0:00:39.320 --> 0:00:42.480
<v Speaker 2>is the right hire here, because we can point out

0:00:42.520 --> 0:00:44.440
<v Speaker 2>a couple things. Oh, there have been guys who don't

0:00:44.440 --> 0:00:47.520
<v Speaker 2>have experience and they've been very successful. And I would

0:00:47.600 --> 0:00:50.360
<v Speaker 2>encourage you to look at the rosters that they inherited.

0:00:50.680 --> 0:00:53.199
<v Speaker 2>Therefore it pretty much ensured that they were going to

0:00:53.240 --> 0:00:55.960
<v Speaker 2>be successful. But then you also have Steve Nash and

0:00:55.960 --> 0:00:59.280
<v Speaker 2>Brooklyn Derek Fisher with the Knicks, Jason Kidd with Brooklyn

0:00:59.600 --> 0:01:02.639
<v Speaker 2>darn with the Lakers. Although I would probably argue that

0:01:03.040 --> 0:01:06.640
<v Speaker 2>Darvinham was successful. He got his team to the Western

0:01:06.680 --> 0:01:09.880
<v Speaker 2>Conference Finals. But then when things started to fall off

0:01:09.920 --> 0:01:12.880
<v Speaker 2>a little bit, or maybe maybe the team started to

0:01:12.920 --> 0:01:17.120
<v Speaker 2>notice that Darvinham wasn't making in game adjustments that needed

0:01:17.120 --> 0:01:20.840
<v Speaker 2>to be made and therefore the strategy behind everything that

0:01:20.959 --> 0:01:23.199
<v Speaker 2>it felt like they were getting out coached in games.

0:01:23.200 --> 0:01:26.520
<v Speaker 2>And Darvinham got fired after two years. These coaches, after

0:01:26.520 --> 0:01:30.600
<v Speaker 2>Phil Jackson, everybody lasted about two years. JJ Reddick got four.

0:01:31.120 --> 0:01:33.000
<v Speaker 2>I'll take you back to a little over a year

0:01:33.000 --> 0:01:36.000
<v Speaker 2>ago when JJ was on the program and I asked

0:01:36.080 --> 0:01:40.959
<v Speaker 2>him the following question, I'm from wanting to maybe be

0:01:41.040 --> 0:01:41.640
<v Speaker 2>a head coach.

0:01:43.040 --> 0:01:48.680
<v Speaker 3>Well, I mean you you certainly missed the competitive side

0:01:48.880 --> 0:01:54.000
<v Speaker 3>of professional basketball when you retire, and that's probably the

0:01:54.000 --> 0:01:58.400
<v Speaker 3>biggest hitch. I'm loving what I'm doing right now, and

0:01:58.720 --> 0:02:03.520
<v Speaker 3>I'm in a very fortunate situation that I can kind

0:02:03.560 --> 0:02:06.720
<v Speaker 3>of wait and just see if there's anything that materializes

0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:10.640
<v Speaker 3>that that's that's sort of a perfect fit. But you know,

0:02:10.680 --> 0:02:14.480
<v Speaker 3>I've talked with teams now going on a year about

0:02:14.520 --> 0:02:18.560
<v Speaker 3>assistant jobs, and I'm interested in being a head coach.

0:02:18.600 --> 0:02:20.359
<v Speaker 3>I don't I don't have to start as a head coach.

0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:22.160
<v Speaker 3>I don't have to start as an assistant. It doesn't

0:02:22.160 --> 0:02:25.200
<v Speaker 3>matter to me. It's more just about the fit and

0:02:24.960 --> 0:02:28.000
<v Speaker 3>the people that are, you know, at the organization.

0:02:28.680 --> 0:02:31.720
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so he got four years here, Lebron, what's the

0:02:31.760 --> 0:02:34.600
<v Speaker 2>over under two and a half years that he continues

0:02:34.639 --> 0:02:38.560
<v Speaker 2>to play and maybe longer. He certainly hasn't had that

0:02:38.639 --> 0:02:41.440
<v Speaker 2>much of a drop off here. And then you factor

0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:45.400
<v Speaker 2>in his son, how long you know, does that reinvigorate him?

0:02:45.400 --> 0:02:47.280
<v Speaker 2>Does he want to play longer? Or is it a hey,

0:02:47.320 --> 0:02:50.200
<v Speaker 2>I got the opportunity to play with my son. Not

0:02:50.360 --> 0:02:53.040
<v Speaker 2>everybody's all in on JJ Reddick becoming the head coach

0:02:53.080 --> 0:02:55.960
<v Speaker 2>of the Lakers. Bill Plashke, the columnist for the La Times,

0:02:56.360 --> 0:02:58.320
<v Speaker 2>didn't mince words last week.

0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:02.560
<v Speaker 4>And I hope it's not JJ Redick, and I've written

0:03:02.560 --> 0:03:04.440
<v Speaker 4>about that. He's he's not. He's not a coach. He's

0:03:04.480 --> 0:03:07.079
<v Speaker 4>never coached before. I'm worried they're gonna go back to

0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:11.280
<v Speaker 4>JJ with JJ Reddick. If not, I know they got this.

0:03:11.800 --> 0:03:14.760
<v Speaker 4>James Barrego is on the A list. Why not Sam Cassell?

0:03:15.880 --> 0:03:16.200
<v Speaker 1>Why not?

0:03:16.240 --> 0:03:18.760
<v Speaker 4>In my opinion, why not go go get Becky Hammond?

0:03:19.320 --> 0:03:22.600
<v Speaker 4>I'm serious? Why not to go completely outside the boxes there?

0:03:22.639 --> 0:03:24.639
<v Speaker 4>Because there wherever's gonna coach her now is in the

0:03:24.720 --> 0:03:27.520
<v Speaker 4>coaching for two years to get fired probably anyway. So

0:03:27.600 --> 0:03:30.519
<v Speaker 4>that's it's so, it's so bad, it's so since since

0:03:30.560 --> 0:03:34.640
<v Speaker 4>such disarray, Hell, why not draft Bronnie mcbrownie the player coach?

0:03:34.680 --> 0:03:35.080
<v Speaker 4>I don't know.

0:03:35.880 --> 0:03:38.920
<v Speaker 2>So that's a Bill Plashke. Now he said that last

0:03:38.960 --> 0:03:43.720
<v Speaker 2>week before realizing who JJ Reddick may add to his bench.

0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:46.800
<v Speaker 2>And he's gonna he's gonna be adding some experience here.

0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:49.480
<v Speaker 2>And really, you're hiring a team. It's not a head coach.

0:03:49.520 --> 0:03:52.480
<v Speaker 2>You're hiring a team, and it's a team of coaches.

0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:55.680
<v Speaker 2>If Sam Cassell's coming over from Boston, if you're gonna

0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:59.080
<v Speaker 2>have Scotty Brooks come in from Portland, maybe Jared Dudley

0:03:59.120 --> 0:04:02.920
<v Speaker 2>from Dallas bench, maybe stan Van Gundy might be somebody.

0:04:02.960 --> 0:04:06.000
<v Speaker 2>So you're hiring a group of people to help you

0:04:06.640 --> 0:04:10.400
<v Speaker 2>coach and run the Lakers. And I like that. I like,

0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:13.560
<v Speaker 2>you know, the infrastructure that he has here JJ Reddick

0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:15.480
<v Speaker 2>on his own. And I go back to what I

0:04:15.560 --> 0:04:20.479
<v Speaker 2>said yesterday, It is so difficult to be coaching a

0:04:20.560 --> 0:04:23.880
<v Speaker 2>team like this that is analyzed constantly. It's like Mike

0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:26.039
<v Speaker 2>McCarthy with the Cowboys. No matter what he does, it's

0:04:26.040 --> 0:04:28.480
<v Speaker 2>not good enough, never going to be good enough unless

0:04:28.480 --> 0:04:33.280
<v Speaker 2>you win a title. Well, here's the situation where JJ Reddick,

0:04:34.080 --> 0:04:37.800
<v Speaker 2>who might not take criticism too well, might have rabbit

0:04:37.839 --> 0:04:42.080
<v Speaker 2>ears hearing everything reacting to that. You're gonna You're gonna

0:04:42.120 --> 0:04:48.560
<v Speaker 2>be analyzed, scrutinized constantly everything you do, every game, every

0:04:48.600 --> 0:04:54.160
<v Speaker 2>every moment, lebron a d all of this, Bronnie, are

0:04:54.200 --> 0:04:56.760
<v Speaker 2>you ready for that? When you get in front of

0:04:56.800 --> 0:05:00.480
<v Speaker 2>the media, it's it's not like you're coaching in Santa Antonio.

0:05:02.200 --> 0:05:06.760
<v Speaker 2>But I will say understanding Reddick. He is media savvy,

0:05:06.800 --> 0:05:11.600
<v Speaker 2>but you also can't take everything personally to heart. People

0:05:11.640 --> 0:05:13.760
<v Speaker 2>are going to be looking for stories. There's so many

0:05:13.800 --> 0:05:16.159
<v Speaker 2>members of the media who cover the Lakers. You have

0:05:16.320 --> 0:05:19.320
<v Speaker 2>writers who have left other parts of the country to

0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:22.840
<v Speaker 2>cover the Lakers. With lebron the importance, and you're the

0:05:22.920 --> 0:05:27.440
<v Speaker 2>Dallas Cowboys of the NBA. We're waiting for whatever it

0:05:27.520 --> 0:05:29.880
<v Speaker 2>might be positive or negative, and it's going to be

0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:33.600
<v Speaker 2>discussed every one of these shows ESPN, Fox, They're all

0:05:33.680 --> 0:05:38.280
<v Speaker 2>going to discuss you every day. They discuss Aaron Rodgers

0:05:38.360 --> 0:05:42.000
<v Speaker 2>every day, the Cowboys' salary cap every day, and they

0:05:42.080 --> 0:05:46.599
<v Speaker 2>will cover you every single day, because that's what the

0:05:46.680 --> 0:05:50.400
<v Speaker 2>research says. Play the hits, cover these teams, cover these

0:05:50.440 --> 0:05:53.719
<v Speaker 2>stories every single day. He's going to be asked about

0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:57.280
<v Speaker 2>this or people are going to scrutinize what he's doing. Now,

0:05:57.400 --> 0:05:59.240
<v Speaker 2>he might do a great job, and then they're talking

0:05:59.279 --> 0:06:02.760
<v Speaker 2>about you and upon way. But Dan wik is the

0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:06.280
<v Speaker 2>LA Lakers beat reporter for the LA Times. And then

0:06:06.320 --> 0:06:10.280
<v Speaker 2>I wonder, if you're JJ Reddick, you can't continue, Well

0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:13.640
<v Speaker 2>you can't, you can? I would say you shouldn't continue

0:06:13.640 --> 0:06:16.880
<v Speaker 2>to do a podcast with Lebron. Now I get it,

0:06:17.160 --> 0:06:22.200
<v Speaker 2>big business. Focus on the main business, because if you're

0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:25.599
<v Speaker 2>successful with that, that sets you up for other things.

0:06:25.600 --> 0:06:28.680
<v Speaker 2>If you want to now you just beca't you were

0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:31.880
<v Speaker 2>a broadcaster. I still love that. They part of the

0:06:31.920 --> 0:06:36.800
<v Speaker 2>reason wink wink that ESPN fired Jeffvan Gundy as they

0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:38.800
<v Speaker 2>were worried he was going to take another job, a

0:06:38.880 --> 0:06:41.640
<v Speaker 2>head coaching job. So you bring in JJ Reddick and

0:06:41.640 --> 0:06:45.159
<v Speaker 2>what's he do? He takes a head coaching job. To me,

0:06:45.240 --> 0:06:47.840
<v Speaker 2>Jeff Van Gundy got let go him and Mark Jackson

0:06:47.839 --> 0:06:50.560
<v Speaker 2>because they were not afraid to be critical of the

0:06:50.680 --> 0:06:53.599
<v Speaker 2>NBA and officiating. Why is it you're going to fire

0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:57.760
<v Speaker 2>those guys. But you love the TMT guys who criticize

0:06:57.800 --> 0:07:00.560
<v Speaker 2>you far more than Jeffan Gundy and Mark j Did.

0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:05.120
<v Speaker 2>It's like, we can't take that you're criticizing the officials. Meanwhile, hey,

0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:07.640
<v Speaker 2>do you hear what Jack and Charles had to say?

0:07:08.880 --> 0:07:12.480
<v Speaker 2>But that's a side topic there. And Jeff Van Gundy

0:07:12.560 --> 0:07:15.160
<v Speaker 2>going to the Clippers now after being with the Celtics.

0:07:15.200 --> 0:07:17.560

<v Speaker 2>final hour of this meet Friday.

0:07:25.400 --> 0:07:28.240
<v Speaker 5>Let me update you real quick on some pressing matters here.

0:07:28.640 --> 0:07:32.840
<v Speaker 5>Who lasts longer with the Lakers? JJ Reddick or Lebron James?

0:07:32.920 --> 0:07:35.920
<v Speaker 5>JJ Reddick has two thirds of that book? Okay, all right,

0:07:35.920 --> 0:07:38.840
<v Speaker 5>it's nice to see the confidence there. Yeah, who has

0:07:38.840 --> 0:07:42.880
<v Speaker 5>a better first season? This is so JJ Reddick and

0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:46.480
<v Speaker 5>the Lakers or Doug Gottlieb at you dub green Bay

0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:47.760
<v Speaker 5>right now?

0:07:47.760 --> 0:07:50.360
<v Speaker 2>Gottlieb holding on at fifty six percent? Way do I

0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:53.680
<v Speaker 2>have Doug? Have I had Doug going to University of

0:07:53.960 --> 0:07:58.800
<v Speaker 2>Wisconsin Green Bay? Stevens point, Oh, I think I got

0:07:58.840 --> 0:08:01.600
<v Speaker 2>him coaching two teams. Oh that's okay. I'm so sorry.

0:08:02.000 --> 0:08:06.559
<v Speaker 2>It's it's you, Dub Green Bay, our friends, you Dub

0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:10.640
<v Speaker 2>Stevens point. They offered me an opportunity to go in

0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:13.440
<v Speaker 2>there and play for the team. They did, Yeah, they did.

0:08:13.880 --> 0:08:16.800
<v Speaker 2>But Doug said too, if I donated one hundred thousand dollars,

0:08:17.040 --> 0:08:19.360
<v Speaker 2>he'd put me in a starting lineup. That's not bad.

0:08:20.320 --> 0:08:23.280
<v Speaker 2>He's got to open up with his alma mater, right,

0:08:23.760 --> 0:08:26.760
<v Speaker 2>Doug has got to face Oklahoma State to start his career.

0:08:26.880 --> 0:08:27.040
<v Speaker 6>Right?

0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:32.280
<v Speaker 2>Or is that a bad thing if you did it?

0:08:32.360 --> 0:08:36.120
<v Speaker 2>How about a home and home with Oklahoma State because

0:08:36.120 --> 0:08:40.720
<v Speaker 2>he wanted that opportunity, didn't get that opportunity. Now, maybe

0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:42.560
<v Speaker 2>a home a home, that'd be good. All right? What

0:08:42.679 --> 0:08:43.880
<v Speaker 2>else do we have? We have?

0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:45.920
<v Speaker 5>We got two more for you. Who has the best

0:08:46.000 --> 0:08:49.200
<v Speaker 5>championship parades? NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL.

0:08:53.480 --> 0:08:57.959
<v Speaker 2>I'm not really an analyst when it comes to a parade?

0:08:58.200 --> 0:09:02.480
<v Speaker 2>Not no, because they always they look silly. Have you

0:09:02.520 --> 0:09:05.760
<v Speaker 2>ever been asked to host a parade on TV? No?

0:09:06.200 --> 0:09:08.880
<v Speaker 2>But I would I would do like, uh, you know,

0:09:08.960 --> 0:09:11.199
<v Speaker 2>maybe the Thanksgiving Day parade. It's a big deal. Yeah,

0:09:11.240 --> 0:09:14.480
<v Speaker 2>I would do that. But that's fun and nobody's you know,

0:09:14.559 --> 0:09:18.560
<v Speaker 2>hammered in the parade. Well people watching you don't know that,

0:09:19.000 --> 0:09:23.920
<v Speaker 2>you know, but yeah, I to me, it's it's kind

0:09:23.920 --> 0:09:28.199
<v Speaker 2>of embarrassing, how you know. You get these guys hammered

0:09:30.880 --> 0:09:33.040
<v Speaker 2>jumping off the bus and then you got throwing a

0:09:33.120 --> 0:09:36.520
<v Speaker 2>trophy over here, Brady needs help walking off a boat.

0:09:37.040 --> 0:09:41.040
<v Speaker 2>It's uh, I don't know, kind of sad. You know,

0:09:41.200 --> 0:09:44.360
<v Speaker 2>it's not it's not fun. I mean I think for

0:09:44.400 --> 0:09:46.680
<v Speaker 2>those in the moment, but if I'm watching it, I'm

0:09:46.679 --> 0:09:47.720
<v Speaker 2>not entertained by it.

0:09:49.480 --> 0:09:52.040
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, Paul, there's almost injuries. I remember a couple years

0:09:52.080 --> 0:09:53.719
<v Speaker 7>ago there's like an athlete. I think it's I don't

0:09:53.720 --> 0:09:56.200
<v Speaker 7>know the Chiefs who's running and he fell with the

0:09:56.320 --> 0:09:59.040
<v Speaker 7>trophy the Washington Capitals maybe five years ago when he

0:09:59.080 --> 0:10:02.199
<v Speaker 7>won the Cup. That was a very boozy parade. I remember,

0:10:02.320 --> 0:10:03.720
<v Speaker 7>well Veskin was in a fountain.

0:10:04.480 --> 0:10:07.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it was wild. Yeah, but it's not I couldn't

0:10:07.920 --> 0:10:11.000
<v Speaker 2>care less watching a parade. I mean, Celtics won, they

0:10:11.040 --> 0:10:13.520
<v Speaker 2>got a parade today, but I couldn't care less. It's

0:10:13.520 --> 0:10:16.400
<v Speaker 2>not something I'm interested in. But you know, if your

0:10:16.400 --> 0:10:18.760
<v Speaker 2>team wins, you want to celebrate with them great and

0:10:18.840 --> 0:10:22.000
<v Speaker 2>if you get to be along the parade route, have

0:10:22.160 --> 0:10:25.560
<v Speaker 2>fun with him. Good knock yourself out. By the way,

0:10:25.840 --> 0:10:31.360
<v Speaker 2>Speaking of Bronnie lebron James, Paul George Podcast P with

0:10:31.440 --> 0:10:35.319
<v Speaker 2>Paul George had this to say with Ronnie James and

0:10:35.480 --> 0:10:37.840
<v Speaker 2>the comparison to an NBA player.

0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:42.600
<v Speaker 8>What's most impressive is just his his basketball sappiness, like

0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:46.360
<v Speaker 8>his basketball, like you like he can do it all,

0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:48.320
<v Speaker 8>Like I don't. I feel like he hasn't shown that

0:10:48.360 --> 0:10:50.360
<v Speaker 8>he can really be elite at a lot of things.

0:10:50.800 --> 0:10:52.360
<v Speaker 8>But I think he can be elite at a lot

0:10:52.360 --> 0:10:55.840
<v Speaker 8>of things. Like I feel like he's like in that

0:10:56.280 --> 0:11:00.160
<v Speaker 8>Derek White, And it was interesting that that's his comparisons

0:11:00.320 --> 0:11:02.440
<v Speaker 8>that he wants to be like or coming out look like.

0:11:02.800 --> 0:11:05.240
<v Speaker 8>But I compare him to like the Drew Holliday, the

0:11:05.920 --> 0:11:08.560
<v Speaker 8>Derek Whites, like guys that are glue, guys that can

0:11:08.960 --> 0:11:11.040
<v Speaker 8>go through everything on the floor and help you win.

0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:16.440
<v Speaker 2>Okay, pretty high praise there. If Bronnie James is Derek White,

0:11:16.640 --> 0:11:19.760
<v Speaker 2>all right, I'm taking him with the seventeenth overall pick.

0:11:19.800 --> 0:11:22.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm not waiting until the second round here. Yes, yes,

0:11:22.640 --> 0:11:23.280
<v Speaker 2>marm but a.

0:11:23.200 --> 0:11:26.640
<v Speaker 9>Lot of this is best case scenario because earlier in

0:11:26.640 --> 0:11:28.760
<v Speaker 9>that clip, Paul George said he hasn't put it all

0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:32.040
<v Speaker 9>together yet, so this is best case scenario. He could

0:11:32.080 --> 0:11:32.840
<v Speaker 9>be Derek White.

0:11:32.960 --> 0:11:37.920
<v Speaker 2>Okay, all right, I mean how many draft picks in

0:11:37.960 --> 0:11:39.920
<v Speaker 2>this year's draft? Can you say? All right, he's going

0:11:39.960 --> 0:11:43.200
<v Speaker 2>to be as good as Derek White? Like Reed Shephard

0:11:43.280 --> 0:11:45.800
<v Speaker 2>of Kentucky. Is he going to be as good as

0:11:45.840 --> 0:11:49.000
<v Speaker 2>Derek White? I don't know. He might be a top

0:11:49.080 --> 0:11:49.560
<v Speaker 2>five pick.

0:11:50.920 --> 0:11:52.040
<v Speaker 9>It could be Alice Caruso.

0:11:52.920 --> 0:11:57.040
<v Speaker 2>Alex Caruso just got traded Oka see yeh, Josh Getty

0:11:57.240 --> 0:12:01.360
<v Speaker 2>going to the Bulls getting a young point guard, Alex Caruso.

0:12:01.760 --> 0:12:03.920
<v Speaker 2>It's a nice pickup for ok see, white guy for

0:12:03.920 --> 0:12:07.600
<v Speaker 2>white guys. WHOA, I didn't I didn't see it that way.

0:12:07.679 --> 0:12:12.120
<v Speaker 2>But named later? Yeah, well, Derek White would be the

0:12:12.160 --> 0:12:14.840
<v Speaker 2>white guy to be named later. I guess.

0:12:17.360 --> 0:12:20.120
<v Speaker 7>Alice Chris a good fender, right, Yeah, Papa shot once

0:12:20.120 --> 0:12:20.480
<v Speaker 7>in a while.

0:12:20.520 --> 0:12:24.760
<v Speaker 2>No, he's very very valuable, Yeah, very valuable, gritty, held in,

0:12:24.920 --> 0:12:28.679
<v Speaker 2>held in high regard. He is a lot of teams

0:12:28.960 --> 0:12:33.840
<v Speaker 2>like Caruso, Layer would probably like to have him back. Uh,

0:12:33.880 --> 0:12:36.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm looking. So we got the parade today. You have

0:12:37.160 --> 0:12:40.440
<v Speaker 2>hockey coming up tonight, Game six. You have Edmonton hosting

0:12:40.480 --> 0:12:45.160
<v Speaker 2>the Panthers, you have the Travelers, it's the Pride of Connecticut.

0:12:46.760 --> 0:12:48.760
<v Speaker 2>Some of the back room guys are going, by the way,

0:12:48.840 --> 0:12:52.760
<v Speaker 2>hot dog eating contest on the Gambling Podcast. So Dylan

0:12:52.960 --> 0:12:55.600
<v Speaker 2>the graphics guy was in there with Shaye and Irving

0:12:56.120 --> 0:12:58.800
<v Speaker 2>h and also bad Larry was there with the Gambling Podcast.

0:12:59.160 --> 0:13:01.679
<v Speaker 2>We set the over under I think at what ten

0:13:01.760 --> 0:13:05.080
<v Speaker 2>and a half hot dogs in ten minutes? And uh,

0:13:05.760 --> 0:13:07.800
<v Speaker 2>if you guys would like to guess how many hot

0:13:07.800 --> 0:13:10.920
<v Speaker 2>dogs Dylan had during a ten minute period while he

0:13:11.040 --> 0:13:14.000
<v Speaker 2>still had to give us who he was going to

0:13:14.040 --> 0:13:17.120
<v Speaker 2>be placing money on in sporting events, Todd, how many

0:13:17.200 --> 0:13:19.720
<v Speaker 2>hot dogs do you think Dylan had yesterday in ten minutes.

0:13:19.720 --> 0:13:22.360
<v Speaker 10>I'm gonna say he came up just short, but by

0:13:22.400 --> 0:13:22.680
<v Speaker 10>a little.

0:13:22.679 --> 0:13:24.760
<v Speaker 2>I'm to say he got ten in ten. Couldn't get

0:13:24.800 --> 0:13:26.240
<v Speaker 2>that left part. Seeing what about you.

0:13:26.360 --> 0:13:28.400
<v Speaker 5>I'm pretty sure yesterday we had the over under at

0:13:28.400 --> 0:13:30.240
<v Speaker 5>eleven and a half and Todd took the over by

0:13:30.240 --> 0:13:34.760
<v Speaker 5>the way. Okay, that's okay, okay, I'm gonna say he

0:13:35.840 --> 0:13:39.760
<v Speaker 5>had nine and a half, all right, Marvin, See he

0:13:39.800 --> 0:13:43.720
<v Speaker 5>had seven Paulie.

0:13:43.320 --> 0:13:43.840
<v Speaker 9>I'll go eight.

0:13:44.800 --> 0:13:47.200
<v Speaker 2>I think he had six and a half. Wow, Marvin,

0:13:47.200 --> 0:13:49.680
<v Speaker 2>you nailed that one. Yeah, only because you were in

0:13:49.720 --> 0:13:52.720
<v Speaker 2>the room with me. That's crazy. I didn't even know that.

0:13:52.920 --> 0:13:55.560
<v Speaker 2>I didn't want to say six and a bite. Yeah,

0:13:55.600 --> 0:13:59.600
<v Speaker 2>that's true. He had six and a bite. Very very disappointing.

0:13:59.600 --> 0:14:02.520
<v Speaker 9>He started going down maybe around like four and some change.

0:14:02.600 --> 0:14:04.760
<v Speaker 2>Well, the next time, I think we're going to have

0:14:04.800 --> 0:14:08.200
<v Speaker 2>who can eat the most tacos, oysters or oysters, yeah,

0:14:08.200 --> 0:14:12.320
<v Speaker 2>oh boy, or dumplings. So we're gonna do that, you know.

0:14:12.360 --> 0:14:14.560
<v Speaker 2>I think Shyan Irving's going to be involved with that.

0:14:15.040 --> 0:14:17.080
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, six and a half. Dylan wants to be

0:14:17.080 --> 0:14:22.440
<v Speaker 2>a competitive eater. Then yeah, yeah, no, it be not

0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:25.040
<v Speaker 2>very good. So some of the backroom guys are going

0:14:25.120 --> 0:14:28.160
<v Speaker 2>to go to the Travelers the golf tournament there.

0:14:28.080 --> 0:14:32.800
<v Speaker 5>Ay As Scheffler, isn't it, Zender Shoffley, Colin marcaw That's yeah,

0:14:33.160 --> 0:14:34.040
<v Speaker 5>solid field right there.

0:14:34.040 --> 0:14:37.680
<v Speaker 2>No Rory, but yeah, maybe somebody will match Jim Furicks

0:14:37.720 --> 0:14:40.240
<v Speaker 2>fifty eight that he had on that golf course Game

0:14:40.280 --> 0:14:43.560
<v Speaker 2>one of the College World Series Tennessee. The number one

0:14:43.960 --> 0:14:47.360

0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:50.960

<v Speaker 2>So Monday, everybody will have an agenda to talk about

0:15:18.320 --> 0:15:22.960
<v Speaker 2>with jealousy and hatred and racism and whatever whatever is

0:15:23.000 --> 0:15:26.040
<v Speaker 2>going to be attached to this. Maybe maybe we'll just

0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:29.640
<v Speaker 2>talk about how great the players are. Relax, No, it's

0:15:29.680 --> 0:15:30.320
<v Speaker 2>not gonna happen.

0:15:30.600 --> 0:15:32.360
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, why did it takes a long to have been played?

0:15:34.200 --> 0:15:36.880
<v Speaker 2>They're like the Celtics in the seventies six ers that

0:15:36.960 --> 0:15:40.040
<v Speaker 2>they played every Sunday back in the seventies. Braves at

0:15:40.040 --> 0:15:42.880
<v Speaker 2>the Yankees and you could put this in parentheses a

0:15:42.960 --> 0:15:47.800
<v Speaker 2>potential World Series matchup, that's true. It is so the

0:15:47.880 --> 0:15:52.120
<v Speaker 2>Yankees playing great. So that's just some of the things

0:15:52.120 --> 0:15:55.680

0:17:25.359 --> 0:17:27.879
<v Speaker 12>types of things like once you once you get to

0:17:28.400 --> 0:17:33.119
<v Speaker 12>the destination, you know, people are excited. There's a general

0:17:33.200 --> 0:17:35.480
<v Speaker 12>sense of excitement once you once you get your guy,

0:17:36.080 --> 0:17:39.280
<v Speaker 12>even if the path may have taken you in different

0:17:39.280 --> 0:17:42.800
<v Speaker 12>directions right away. I think that they are at least presenting,

0:17:44.680 --> 0:17:51.280
<v Speaker 12>you know, a fully excited, I'm optimistic sort of view.

0:17:51.320 --> 0:17:54.399
<v Speaker 12>They know there's rits, they know there's tremendous rit in this,

0:17:54.560 --> 0:17:57.080
<v Speaker 12>but I think that they feel like they've hired a

0:17:57.240 --> 0:18:03.680
<v Speaker 12>Ford thinking coaching prospect and they think it'll pay off

0:18:03.720 --> 0:18:05.280
<v Speaker 12>in the short term and they think it'll paypen in

0:18:05.280 --> 0:18:05.919
<v Speaker 12>the long term.

0:18:06.520 --> 0:18:08.639
<v Speaker 2>But when you look at this, it almost feels like

0:18:08.680 --> 0:18:11.080
<v Speaker 2>it'll be two different coaching careers. You're going to have

0:18:11.320 --> 0:18:15.520
<v Speaker 2>the Lebron coaching career and then post Lebron coaching career.

0:18:15.840 --> 0:18:16.960
<v Speaker 2>How does he navigate that?

0:18:17.800 --> 0:18:19.680
<v Speaker 12>Well? That always works, right Dan, When you have to

0:18:19.720 --> 0:18:25.520
<v Speaker 12>do two things at once, and I think it is you.

0:18:25.680 --> 0:18:28.280
<v Speaker 12>I have not heard anybody use the phrase two timelines, right,

0:18:28.320 --> 0:18:30.919
<v Speaker 12>which was sort of made famous by the Golden State Warriors.

0:18:31.560 --> 0:18:35.520
<v Speaker 12>And yes they won a championship, but two timelines were

0:18:35.600 --> 0:18:38.520
<v Speaker 12>the real issue for Steve Kerr and Bob Myers in

0:18:38.520 --> 0:18:42.200
<v Speaker 12>that office, where at one time you're trying to maximize

0:18:42.720 --> 0:18:45.440
<v Speaker 12>the time you have with your veteran while off developing.

0:18:45.640 --> 0:18:48.480
<v Speaker 12>You know, the Jonathan Wiseman, the Kaminga. I'm trying to

0:18:48.560 --> 0:18:50.480
<v Speaker 12>James Wiseman and John the Kamenga is the most vooty

0:18:50.520 --> 0:18:53.760
<v Speaker 12>for the world, et cetera. The Lakers don't have that

0:18:54.080 --> 0:18:57.600
<v Speaker 12>level of young player on their roster, but there is.

0:18:58.560 --> 0:19:02.280
<v Speaker 12>They are trying to maximize the Lebron years right provided

0:19:02.320 --> 0:19:05.680
<v Speaker 12>he resigns, which I think is the expectation mostly around

0:19:05.720 --> 0:19:08.920
<v Speaker 12>the league is that he will. But they're they're trying

0:19:08.960 --> 0:19:11.399
<v Speaker 12>to maximize whether that's one year or two year, three or whatever.

0:19:12.800 --> 0:19:15.320
<v Speaker 12>But they also need while that's happening to be building

0:19:15.359 --> 0:19:19.240
<v Speaker 12>for tomorrow. And so that means, you know, Austin Reeves

0:19:19.280 --> 0:19:22.480
<v Speaker 12>taking another step forwards. That means, you know, really tapping

0:19:22.480 --> 0:19:25.520
<v Speaker 12>into the physical potential of early hachimorrow looking at young

0:19:25.560 --> 0:19:28.120
<v Speaker 12>players like Max Christy last years first round draftic Jalen

0:19:28.160 --> 0:19:32.240
<v Speaker 12>Hood Shapino. They picked seventeen in this draft, you know,

0:19:33.400 --> 0:19:36.600
<v Speaker 12>the player that they could take there and really not

0:19:36.760 --> 0:19:39.240
<v Speaker 12>just say like we're going to develop these guys. I think,

0:19:39.560 --> 0:19:41.639
<v Speaker 12>you know, what I'm hearing is that there's going to

0:19:41.720 --> 0:19:46.119
<v Speaker 12>be an increased sort of infrastructure investment in development, right,

0:19:46.200 --> 0:19:51.760
<v Speaker 12>better tack better, better strategies on that front end, And

0:19:51.800 --> 0:19:54.520
<v Speaker 12>I think the thought is that jj Reddick is going

0:19:54.560 --> 0:19:56.760
<v Speaker 12>to be more open minded to that stuff. He doesn't

0:19:56.800 --> 0:19:59.840
<v Speaker 12>really have any of the scars of coaching in the NBA, right,

0:19:59.880 --> 0:20:01.679
<v Speaker 12>so so you could put whatever in front of him,

0:20:01.720 --> 0:20:03.679
<v Speaker 12>he should give it a good look. And then I

0:20:03.680 --> 0:20:06.080
<v Speaker 12>think the other part of it is roster building, Dan,

0:20:06.160 --> 0:20:09.879
<v Speaker 12>you have to create pathways for these young players that

0:20:09.920 --> 0:20:12.160
<v Speaker 12>you draft to play. And that's where it gets really

0:20:12.240 --> 0:20:16.760
<v Speaker 12>tricky because you are trying when you have Lebron James

0:20:16.760 --> 0:20:18.800
<v Speaker 12>and the way that they've gone about roster building and

0:20:18.840 --> 0:20:22.320
<v Speaker 12>free agency is like they just grab the best available

0:20:22.400 --> 0:20:25.040
<v Speaker 12>veterans you can get on minimum deals. You know, we

0:20:25.080 --> 0:20:27.400
<v Speaker 12>would do the show probably in July tenth. We talked

0:20:27.400 --> 0:20:29.120
<v Speaker 12>about what a great job Ropp like it did because

0:20:29.119 --> 0:20:31.520
<v Speaker 12>you got Carmelo Anthony on a minimum you know, he

0:20:31.640 --> 0:20:36.760
<v Speaker 12>got those kinds of guys on minimum deals, touring Prince

0:20:36.840 --> 0:20:40.000
<v Speaker 12>last year on the cheap stuff like that. Well, as

0:20:40.040 --> 0:20:42.760
<v Speaker 12>they move forwards into this new sort of CBA landscape

0:20:42.920 --> 0:20:46.080
<v Speaker 12>where you know, drafting and developing is gonna matter so much.

0:20:46.960 --> 0:20:48.600
<v Speaker 12>Not only do you have to draft developing a play,

0:20:48.760 --> 0:20:51.320
<v Speaker 12>then you have to give them runways to play and

0:20:51.480 --> 0:20:55.119
<v Speaker 12>runways to actually learn and do it on the court.

0:20:55.359 --> 0:20:58.560
<v Speaker 12>And that's where it gets tricky because your clock is

0:20:58.600 --> 0:21:01.879
<v Speaker 12>also picking with Lebron James the Western Conference, the margins

0:21:01.880 --> 0:21:05.680
<v Speaker 12>are so slim, so it's the small needle that's gonna

0:21:05.680 --> 0:21:07.440
<v Speaker 12>need to be threaded by Digiretick.

0:21:07.720 --> 0:21:10.400
<v Speaker 2>But also his assistance. You know, you're hiring a CEO

0:21:10.800 --> 0:21:14.119
<v Speaker 2>and you have that infrastructure and these if you're going

0:21:14.200 --> 0:21:16.200
<v Speaker 2>to bring in Scotti Brooks who's been a head coach,

0:21:16.280 --> 0:21:19.520
<v Speaker 2>Sam Cassell with the Celtics, Jared Dudley with the MAVs,

0:21:19.800 --> 0:21:23.359
<v Speaker 2>I mean you're gonna uh Rajon Rondo. So you're getting

0:21:23.400 --> 0:21:26.840
<v Speaker 2>some younger, I guess voices in there to be able

0:21:26.880 --> 0:21:30.080
<v Speaker 2>to mesh with these players and help develop them. Do

0:21:30.160 --> 0:21:33.240
<v Speaker 2>we know what's official as far as assistant coaches.

0:21:33.800 --> 0:21:37.160
<v Speaker 12>Nothing is official at this point. I think you know

0:21:37.560 --> 0:21:40.360
<v Speaker 12>that that list as a list I reported a few

0:21:40.359 --> 0:21:42.640
<v Speaker 12>weeks ago. It's been re reported here. I think it's

0:21:42.680 --> 0:21:44.680
<v Speaker 12>like it was like a target pool.

0:21:45.000 --> 0:21:45.199
<v Speaker 13>You know.

0:21:46.800 --> 0:21:49.199
<v Speaker 12>Jared Dudley I think is going to stay Dallas. You know,

0:21:49.200 --> 0:21:50.919
<v Speaker 12>we'll see what happens in terms of the type of

0:21:51.000 --> 0:21:53.159
<v Speaker 12>job he gets. Dam Castell I think is going to

0:21:53.200 --> 0:21:56.400
<v Speaker 12>stay in Boston. That you know, charls Lee moving through Charlotte,

0:21:56.720 --> 0:21:59.800
<v Speaker 12>there's an opportunity there for him to slide up the

0:21:59.800 --> 0:22:01.880
<v Speaker 12>bed into the number two spot. I mean those two,

0:22:02.560 --> 0:22:04.240
<v Speaker 12>you know, those are the two final teams, right, like,

0:22:04.280 --> 0:22:07.520
<v Speaker 12>those are pretty good situations. Yeah, you know, Scott brook

0:22:08.280 --> 0:22:10.000
<v Speaker 12>is the name that I've heard a lot. I think

0:22:10.240 --> 0:22:12.040
<v Speaker 12>the most interesting thing I've learned in is that the

0:22:12.080 --> 0:22:14.720
<v Speaker 12>planet to not have just one former head coach on

0:22:14.760 --> 0:22:17.400
<v Speaker 12>the front road, to have at least two, which would

0:22:17.440 --> 0:22:20.320
<v Speaker 12>sort of mirror what the Lakers did in twenty nineteen

0:22:20.359 --> 0:22:23.720
<v Speaker 12>with Frank Logel when they put him around Jason, well,

0:22:23.760 --> 0:22:25.840
<v Speaker 12>they didn't put him around. They added Jason Kid and

0:22:25.920 --> 0:22:29.880
<v Speaker 12>Lionel Hollins to that staff, and they really had sort

0:22:29.880 --> 0:22:32.320
<v Speaker 12>of balance in terms of voice. And I think, you know,

0:22:32.480 --> 0:22:35.920
<v Speaker 12>for a first time head coach, that's so critical to

0:22:36.280 --> 0:22:38.440
<v Speaker 12>have to sort of know what you don't know, right

0:22:38.640 --> 0:22:41.399
<v Speaker 12>And I don't doubt that will occur with JJ, to

0:22:41.440 --> 0:22:43.159
<v Speaker 12>know what you don't know, and then to also be

0:22:43.200 --> 0:22:47.879
<v Speaker 12>able to say, like you know, to delegate responsibility and

0:22:48.000 --> 0:22:51.879
<v Speaker 12>to build a staff that both balanced experience but also

0:22:51.920 --> 0:22:53.440
<v Speaker 12>willing to work with the guy who's going to be

0:22:53.480 --> 0:22:54.120
<v Speaker 12>learning on the job.

0:22:54.840 --> 0:22:57.800
<v Speaker 2>Dan Whitki covers the Lakers is the beat reporter for

0:22:57.800 --> 0:23:01.240
<v Speaker 2>the La Times. What about the lebron JJ podcast?

0:23:02.240 --> 0:23:06.240
<v Speaker 12>A great question. I can't imagine it's going to continue,

0:23:06.720 --> 0:23:09.080
<v Speaker 12>sad right, like we might get a season finale episode,

0:23:09.119 --> 0:23:12.119
<v Speaker 12>maybe the helicopter or you know, like manages, like like

0:23:12.280 --> 0:23:16.480
<v Speaker 12>who knows what's gonna happen here? I think though, this

0:23:16.720 --> 0:23:19.920
<v Speaker 12>is knowing JJ a little bit, and he is interested

0:23:19.960 --> 0:23:21.840
<v Speaker 12>in a lot of things, right, Like this is the

0:23:21.880 --> 0:23:24.560
<v Speaker 12>guy who is interested in broadcasting, He's interested in wine,

0:23:24.560 --> 0:23:28.920
<v Speaker 12>he's interested in golf, he's interested in very fancy suits.

0:23:29.119 --> 0:23:30.679
<v Speaker 12>He's gonna have to adjump, You're gonna have to learn

0:23:30.680 --> 0:23:32.560
<v Speaker 12>how to be You didn't quarter them like all the

0:23:32.640 --> 0:23:34.479
<v Speaker 12>rest of these guys in the NBA on the sidelines. Now,

0:23:34.480 --> 0:23:37.879
<v Speaker 12>he's gonna have to learn how to focus in that energy.

0:23:37.920 --> 0:23:40.520
<v Speaker 12>And I think I think that's what the Lakers think

0:23:40.560 --> 0:23:44.320
<v Speaker 12>they're getting, right. They're not hiring a podcaster. I think

0:23:44.400 --> 0:23:46.560
<v Speaker 12>they they view it as that they are hiring somebody

0:23:46.640 --> 0:23:52.080
<v Speaker 12>who is a bright basketball mind, who is serious about this.

0:23:52.560 --> 0:23:55.760
<v Speaker 12>I think that's one of the things and sort of

0:23:56.280 --> 0:24:00.000
<v Speaker 12>the discussion throughout this process, right is I reported this today.

0:24:01.040 --> 0:24:03.399
<v Speaker 12>You know, Lebron and Jj obviously have a good relationship.

0:24:03.440 --> 0:24:05.240
<v Speaker 12>You can see it on camera. It's hard to fake

0:24:05.320 --> 0:24:10.200
<v Speaker 12>that type of stuff, right, They've got good rapport. Their

0:24:10.680 --> 0:24:13.960
<v Speaker 12>before the podcast end didn't really exist, Like this is

0:24:14.160 --> 0:24:19.120
<v Speaker 12>still a relatively new relationship. Like you know, I've even

0:24:19.160 --> 0:24:21.040
<v Speaker 12>been told this much that, like they didn't really hang

0:24:21.080 --> 0:24:24.080
<v Speaker 12>out ever before this. I mean, there were competitors in

0:24:24.080 --> 0:24:28.120
<v Speaker 12>the NBA, kind of an anomaly even though they're around

0:24:28.160 --> 0:24:30.400
<v Speaker 12>the same age, Like Lebron had been in the league

0:24:30.440 --> 0:24:33.800
<v Speaker 12>for four years. The first time a rookie JJ Reddick

0:24:33.800 --> 0:24:37.800
<v Speaker 12>played against the James. But but I think interesting enough

0:24:37.880 --> 0:24:40.040
<v Speaker 12>to to coaches in Corona that Lebron James has played

0:24:40.080 --> 0:24:43.400
<v Speaker 12>with or against that will be coaching him in the NBA.

0:24:43.520 --> 0:24:47.720
<v Speaker 12>But but I think their relationship to me is it's

0:24:47.760 --> 0:24:50.000
<v Speaker 12>critical to what's going on. But but like you said,

0:24:50.040 --> 0:24:54.080
<v Speaker 12>there's an expiration date to it and whether or not

0:24:55.080 --> 0:24:57.840
<v Speaker 12>they I just don't think they can really continue the show.

0:24:57.920 --> 0:25:00.080
<v Speaker 12>I guess that's my long winded way of thing. It

0:25:00.160 --> 0:25:03.680
<v Speaker 12>seems like an unnecessary distracting. They're paying him to quote,

0:25:03.680 --> 0:25:06.359
<v Speaker 12>they're not paying him the podcast. His divestment from his

0:25:06.400 --> 0:25:09.040
<v Speaker 12>podcast Empire is sort of an interesting media side note

0:25:09.040 --> 0:25:11.199
<v Speaker 12>for this to see kind of how much he steps

0:25:11.200 --> 0:25:12.639
<v Speaker 12>back and kind of what happened to because it's been

0:25:12.680 --> 0:25:14.600
<v Speaker 12>really successful for him.

0:25:14.800 --> 0:25:19.359
<v Speaker 2>If he doesn't have the podcast podcast with Lebron finish

0:25:19.440 --> 0:25:19.919
<v Speaker 2>that sentence.

0:25:23.000 --> 0:25:25.200
<v Speaker 12>If he doesn't have the podcast with Lebron, James, Lakers

0:25:25.200 --> 0:25:28.120
<v Speaker 12>have more questions, I think about his ability to coach.

0:25:28.440 --> 0:25:30.359
<v Speaker 2>Would he still be the guy that they would hire.

0:25:30.840 --> 0:25:35.159
<v Speaker 12>I think it's possible. You know, is a key figure

0:25:35.240 --> 0:25:38.000
<v Speaker 12>Dan and all of this someone that Rob Polink has

0:25:38.000 --> 0:25:40.480
<v Speaker 12>a lot of respect for, someone who Robbed Plink is

0:25:40.560 --> 0:25:43.520
<v Speaker 12>known for a very long time his life. Attended Duke University,

0:25:43.960 --> 0:25:48.080
<v Speaker 12>but Rob, you know through Kobe Bryant in t USA basketball,

0:25:48.680 --> 0:25:52.200
<v Speaker 12>and look, I think there's a very real way that

0:25:52.560 --> 0:25:56.000
<v Speaker 12>even without the podcast, Mike you know, would have said,

0:25:56.240 --> 0:25:58.080
<v Speaker 12>you know who's thinking about coaching and would be really

0:25:58.080 --> 0:26:00.840
<v Speaker 12>good at j J lending and and I think the

0:26:00.920 --> 0:26:04.080
<v Speaker 12>questions though Dan would be like, well, how Lebron has

0:26:04.080 --> 0:26:07.480
<v Speaker 12>pulled himself back from this prof that you know he

0:26:07.520 --> 0:26:09.560
<v Speaker 12>doesn't want to be as involved in it. How do

0:26:09.720 --> 0:26:11.640
<v Speaker 12>how do we gauge whether or not Lebron would even

0:26:11.640 --> 0:26:13.600
<v Speaker 12>be able to do this? I think what the podcast

0:26:13.680 --> 0:26:16.640
<v Speaker 12>can show you and if you watch certain clips. There

0:26:16.680 --> 0:26:18.560
<v Speaker 12>was a clip that I treated the other day that

0:26:18.600 --> 0:26:21.840
<v Speaker 12>really stuck out to me was they were talking about

0:26:21.840 --> 0:26:24.239
<v Speaker 12>analytics and three point shooting right and Lebron James at

0:26:24.240 --> 0:26:27.440
<v Speaker 12>a certain point most players will push back on analytics

0:26:27.480 --> 0:26:30.000
<v Speaker 12>and staid like, well, what happened when you know a

0:26:30.040 --> 0:26:33.720
<v Speaker 12>team misses twenty eighth straight like the Houston Rockets did

0:26:33.880 --> 0:26:36.439
<v Speaker 12>in the finals or in the Western Conference finals, And

0:26:36.520 --> 0:26:39.560
<v Speaker 12>JJ Reddick like like Razor Quick was like, as it

0:26:39.600 --> 0:26:44.280
<v Speaker 12>happened since and Lebron kind of chuckled that this you know,

0:26:44.520 --> 0:26:46.919
<v Speaker 12>Knight Boordau or whatever he was drinking was like, all right,

0:26:46.960 --> 0:26:49.040
<v Speaker 12>you're right, And it was like it was an example

0:26:49.040 --> 0:26:52.199
<v Speaker 12>of like watching JJ like this s arm and you know,

0:26:52.600 --> 0:26:55.720
<v Speaker 12>win an argument really quickly on the spot. Now, how

0:26:55.760 --> 0:26:57.680
<v Speaker 12>that plays in the locker room at halftime when you're

0:26:57.680 --> 0:27:01.000
<v Speaker 12>down seventeen to the Charlotte Hornets and everbodys sign who

0:27:01.040 --> 0:27:04.000
<v Speaker 12>knows like that that that is a huge question. But

0:27:04.080 --> 0:27:07.080
<v Speaker 12>I think, you know, to be quite fair, like there

0:27:07.160 --> 0:27:08.760
<v Speaker 12>was going to be elements of question with that with

0:27:08.840 --> 0:27:12.119
<v Speaker 12>Dan Hurley too. I think they wanted Dan Hurley first

0:27:12.280 --> 0:27:15.720
<v Speaker 12>because generally had the experience he's been in that position.

0:27:16.280 --> 0:27:18.120
<v Speaker 12>But I think if we look at things like track

0:27:18.160 --> 0:27:20.680
<v Speaker 12>records and stuff like this, I mean, the transition for

0:27:20.800 --> 0:27:24.239
<v Speaker 12>college coaches in the NBA is really rough. Transition per

0:27:24.240 --> 0:27:26.560
<v Speaker 12>a guy doing it from behind the microphone d NBA

0:27:26.640 --> 0:27:29.480
<v Speaker 12>could be really rough. It's all projection.

0:27:29.800 --> 0:27:33.640
<v Speaker 2>Can the Lakers at the introductory press conference say this

0:27:33.720 --> 0:27:36.480
<v Speaker 2>is the guy we wanted all along, ladies and gentlemen,

0:27:36.600 --> 0:27:37.320
<v Speaker 2>JJ Reddick.

0:27:38.080 --> 0:27:40.760
<v Speaker 12>I think I think it'll be more so some version

0:27:40.920 --> 0:27:45.399
<v Speaker 12>of we were blessed to have found multiple candidates that

0:27:45.880 --> 0:27:49.240
<v Speaker 12>we thought were incredible. I think would be I'm stealing

0:27:49.240 --> 0:27:51.160
<v Speaker 12>from my own wedding bowsing. I remember when I said

0:27:51.119 --> 0:27:56.359
<v Speaker 12>at violence, I said, honey, you're the right person at

0:27:56.359 --> 0:28:00.880
<v Speaker 12>the right time, and then after that the three hour break,

0:28:00.880 --> 0:28:02.080
<v Speaker 12>we were able to calm her down, we were able

0:28:02.119 --> 0:28:04.560
<v Speaker 12>to finish off. I think I'll be some version of that, right,

0:28:05.320 --> 0:28:06.080
<v Speaker 12>it's a great question.

0:28:06.880 --> 0:28:09.680
<v Speaker 2>So Brownie uh is going to be a Laker? That

0:28:09.800 --> 0:28:12.879
<v Speaker 2>more likely now with JJ their foregone conclusion.

0:28:13.720 --> 0:28:15.320
<v Speaker 12>You know, it's interesting. I don't know if it makes

0:28:15.320 --> 0:28:17.560
<v Speaker 12>it more or less likely. I think that, you know,

0:28:17.680 --> 0:28:21.480
<v Speaker 12>fifty five does feel like this floor, right that provided

0:28:22.200 --> 0:28:24.439
<v Speaker 12>that's when the Lakers picking the second round, currently they

0:28:24.440 --> 0:28:29.879
<v Speaker 12>could move up, but provided that nothing, they don't have

0:28:29.920 --> 0:28:33.480
<v Speaker 12>to go up and get him. I think it's yeah,

0:28:33.480 --> 0:28:35.360
<v Speaker 12>I think it's possible. But look, I think that they're

0:28:35.440 --> 0:28:37.720
<v Speaker 12>also dan right, Like, we know there's going to be

0:28:37.760 --> 0:28:40.600
<v Speaker 12>a lot of questions about sort of JJ and Lebron

0:28:40.760 --> 0:28:43.280
<v Speaker 12>relationship and stuff like that, and if the Lakers care

0:28:43.320 --> 0:28:45.480
<v Speaker 12>about things like optics and they feel like optics would

0:28:45.480 --> 0:28:47.960
<v Speaker 12>get in the way of a player development, which potentially

0:28:47.960 --> 0:28:51.720
<v Speaker 12>it could. You know, maybe in that way it makes

0:28:51.720 --> 0:28:55.640
<v Speaker 12>it less like it's I can tell you that they

0:28:55.680 --> 0:28:58.600
<v Speaker 12>have tried their best. The people that I talked to

0:28:58.880 --> 0:29:01.320
<v Speaker 12>in like their scouting depart right, and now granted they're

0:29:01.320 --> 0:29:02.840
<v Speaker 12>not the one to alt point making the decision. But

0:29:03.160 --> 0:29:05.240
<v Speaker 12>the people who are actually scouting the players have tried

0:29:05.280 --> 0:29:08.320
<v Speaker 12>their best to remove Lebron from the equation when it

0:29:08.360 --> 0:29:10.120
<v Speaker 12>comes to Browning James, and there are things that they

0:29:10.320 --> 0:29:13.640
<v Speaker 12>like about the player that would make them comfortable drafting

0:29:13.720 --> 0:29:17.080
<v Speaker 12>him at fifty five in a way that quite frankly,

0:29:17.160 --> 0:29:19.080
<v Speaker 12>like a lot of different people. If you look at

0:29:19.120 --> 0:29:21.240
<v Speaker 12>the track record of players drafted at fifty five, they

0:29:21.320 --> 0:29:23.560
<v Speaker 12>hit rates are really low, do everythings like this, But

0:29:23.600 --> 0:29:26.560
<v Speaker 12>the Lakers are seemingly comfortable not only drafting Browning games,

0:29:26.640 --> 0:29:28.560
<v Speaker 12>but they take them at fifty five, not signing into

0:29:28.600 --> 0:29:31.280
<v Speaker 12>a two way deal, which Rich Paul has been very

0:29:31.360 --> 0:29:34.280
<v Speaker 12>open and adamant that he won't take. So the Lakers

0:29:34.280 --> 0:29:36.520
<v Speaker 12>seem comfortable with that part of it. But they also

0:29:36.640 --> 0:29:38.920
<v Speaker 12>know that that it would have to be a big,

0:29:38.960 --> 0:29:43.000
<v Speaker 12>long developmental process. So maybe maybe that's where you know

0:29:43.080 --> 0:29:46.000
<v Speaker 12>JJ's ability and they think he'll be a good developmental coach,

0:29:46.640 --> 0:29:48.600
<v Speaker 12>you know, in that way, maybe it doesn't make more likely. Dan,

0:29:48.760 --> 0:29:51.600
<v Speaker 12>I have no idea on this one. There's been a

0:29:51.640 --> 0:29:56.120
<v Speaker 12>ton of smoke. It is unprecedented territory where a top

0:29:56.200 --> 0:30:00.800
<v Speaker 12>sixty player is sort of the story of the draft. Yeah,

0:30:00.840 --> 0:30:01.640
<v Speaker 12>but here we are.

0:30:02.760 --> 0:30:05.520
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, Bud. Great to talk to you again. That's Dan.

0:30:05.560 --> 0:30:09.880
<v Speaker 2>Why the La Times? Yep, there's a lot of moving

0:30:09.920 --> 0:30:14.680
<v Speaker 2>parts here and taking Bronnie James. I'm going to take

0:30:14.720 --> 0:30:17.000
<v Speaker 2>four pies to the face, apparently because I had Bronnie

0:30:17.040 --> 0:30:20.080
<v Speaker 2>James going in the first round. God, if he goes

0:30:20.080 --> 0:30:22.400
<v Speaker 2>in the first round, it might be one of the

0:30:22.440 --> 0:30:25.960
<v Speaker 2>great days of my life. Four pies instead, I'm going

0:30:26.040 --> 0:30:28.200
<v Speaker 2>to take four pies from the Dan ask because nobody,

0:30:28.280 --> 0:30:31.440
<v Speaker 2>nobody believed in me. It's all right. It's called content, Todd,

0:30:31.760 --> 0:30:33.280
<v Speaker 2>it's content. Yeah, you should try.

0:30:33.280 --> 0:30:34.520
<v Speaker 10>All different kinds of pies.

0:30:34.520 --> 0:30:36.800
<v Speaker 2>We're going to mix it up forty time. It's all right.

0:30:37.920 --> 0:30:40.320
<v Speaker 2>I mean, if you want to present me with an out,

0:30:41.200 --> 0:30:44.480
<v Speaker 2>you can, but I'm not asking for one. It's just

0:30:44.560 --> 0:30:48.120
<v Speaker 2>been suggested because Paulie said, do you want an out

0:30:48.360 --> 0:30:50.640
<v Speaker 2>or would you? Would you entertain it? Yeah, paul you

0:30:50.640 --> 0:30:51.240
<v Speaker 2>could keep.

0:30:51.080 --> 0:30:53.320
<v Speaker 7>The bet you have first round for Bronnie James, or

0:30:54.000 --> 0:30:57.280
<v Speaker 7>you could wipe that away and you say he's drafted

0:30:57.280 --> 0:31:00.680
<v Speaker 7>by the Lakers or the field. M Is that more

0:31:00.760 --> 0:31:01.520
<v Speaker 7>or less interesting?

0:31:03.920 --> 0:31:06.640
<v Speaker 2>Uh? Well, I just I just made the first round

0:31:06.680 --> 0:31:09.160
<v Speaker 2>interesting by saying Bronnie is going to go in the

0:31:09.200 --> 0:31:13.640
<v Speaker 2>first round, but then most people probably only watch the

0:31:13.760 --> 0:31:16.360
<v Speaker 2>second round though, like the second night. I can't believe

0:31:16.360 --> 0:31:21.160
<v Speaker 2>they're having two nights. It's like, get it over with now,

0:31:21.200 --> 0:31:23.680
<v Speaker 2>this isn't the NFL. Let's just get this draft over

0:31:23.720 --> 0:31:27.240
<v Speaker 2>with because nobody knows anybody in this draft. Yes, Todd,

0:31:27.280 --> 0:31:28.040
<v Speaker 2>what if you head.

0:31:27.880 --> 0:31:29.720
<v Speaker 10>Your bets and go the other way and have a

0:31:29.760 --> 0:31:32.000
<v Speaker 10>bet where if he doesn't get drafted at all, we

0:31:32.080 --> 0:31:33.440
<v Speaker 10>each get two pies to the face.

0:31:34.760 --> 0:31:37.520
<v Speaker 2>I would do it where I got the Lakers or

0:31:37.560 --> 0:31:43.000
<v Speaker 2>the field, But would anybody take the field with Bronnie James,

0:31:43.840 --> 0:31:45.760
<v Speaker 2>Because that I mean, you got to have somebody to

0:31:45.800 --> 0:31:47.640
<v Speaker 2>take the opposite. I can do it, but then if

0:31:47.680 --> 0:31:50.360
<v Speaker 2>nobody's taken the opposite, then I have to stick with

0:31:50.400 --> 0:31:53.600
<v Speaker 2>my original bet. I mean, I'll take it. In fact,

0:31:53.760 --> 0:31:56.600
<v Speaker 2>you know what, I don't even want an ount. You

0:31:56.680 --> 0:32:00.200
<v Speaker 2>take it like a man. This is content, and that's

0:32:00.240 --> 0:32:06.560
<v Speaker 2>what I stand. I've got, Prince, thank you. I appreciate that.

0:32:07.120 --> 0:32:11.120
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, and it'll go down to pul they're still applauding. Yes,

0:32:11.480 --> 0:32:15.200
<v Speaker 2>thank you. You know what again, thank you. I forget.

0:32:15.600 --> 0:32:17.880
<v Speaker 2>That's what it's all about. That's what a host does

0:32:18.280 --> 0:32:20.320
<v Speaker 2>live up to your word, live up to your promise,

0:32:20.440 --> 0:32:24.120

0:32:24.120 --> 0:32:26.280

0:33:00.520 --> 0:33:03.520
<v Speaker 2>official trading cards of the program. Couple of phone calls

0:33:03.560 --> 0:33:07.680
<v Speaker 2>in here before we set sail for the weekend. This

0:33:07.800 --> 0:33:10.360
<v Speaker 2>day in sports history, PAULI, why don't we do that

0:33:10.440 --> 0:33:13.160
<v Speaker 2>this day in sports history? Because sometimes we cut you

0:33:13.200 --> 0:33:15.200
<v Speaker 2>short and you have to hurry, so we don't want

0:33:15.240 --> 0:33:16.720
<v Speaker 2>to do that. I'm glad to do it. Yeah.

0:33:16.800 --> 0:33:20.440
<v Speaker 7>Nineteen thirty nine, Lou Garrett quit baseball due to illness.

0:33:20.960 --> 0:33:23.520
<v Speaker 7>Nineteen forty two, Ben Hogan the golfer lowest score at

0:33:23.520 --> 0:33:25.920
<v Speaker 7>that time in a major golf tournament. He shot two

0:33:26.000 --> 0:33:30.640
<v Speaker 7>seventy one seventy two holes. Australian John Landy ran the

0:33:30.680 --> 0:33:33.040
<v Speaker 7>mile in three minutes and fifty eight seconds, the new

0:33:33.080 --> 0:33:35.640
<v Speaker 7>record in nineteen fifty four. He gets very little credit

0:33:35.640 --> 0:33:37.840
<v Speaker 7>in history because he didn't break the four minute mile

0:33:38.000 --> 0:33:40.880
<v Speaker 7>that was Roger Banister a month earlier. But John Landy

0:33:40.880 --> 0:33:44.560
<v Speaker 7>get a little pub litt Late nineteen sixty three, Bob Hayes,

0:33:44.960 --> 0:33:48.160
<v Speaker 7>the track star and ended up being a cowboy wide

0:33:48.160 --> 0:33:52.000
<v Speaker 7>receiver ran one hundred yard dash in nine point one seconds.

0:33:52.200 --> 0:33:56.959
<v Speaker 7>And lastly, Oh nineteen ninety seven, the Women's National Basketball Association.

0:33:56.640 --> 0:33:57.280
<v Speaker 2>Made his debut.

0:33:57.320 --> 0:34:00.440
<v Speaker 7>The New York Liberty beat the Sparks six fifty seven,

0:34:00.480 --> 0:34:01.280
<v Speaker 7>nineteen ninety seven.

0:34:01.600 --> 0:34:04.960
<v Speaker 2>On this date. In nineteen eighty six, Bo Jackson signed

0:34:05.000 --> 0:34:08.120
<v Speaker 2>a contract to play baseball with the Royals. Also, the

0:34:08.200 --> 0:34:11.400
<v Speaker 2>Lakers beat the Pistons by three in Game seven to

0:34:11.440 --> 0:34:17.439
<v Speaker 2>win their second straight NBA title. And I think that's it.

0:34:18.840 --> 0:34:21.839
<v Speaker 2>Let me see Robin Florida. Rob, thanks for holding what's

0:34:21.840 --> 0:34:22.600
<v Speaker 2>on your mind today?

0:34:23.360 --> 0:34:27.799
<v Speaker 6>Hi Dad, they're on DNEX a long time. First time.

0:34:28.160 --> 0:34:30.279
<v Speaker 6>I had an idea of a way to put Pete

0:34:30.320 --> 0:34:32.200
<v Speaker 6>Rose out to the Bombs and those guys into the

0:34:32.200 --> 0:34:35.600
<v Speaker 6>Hall of Fame posthumously. You know this is a two

0:34:35.600 --> 0:34:39.480
<v Speaker 6>fold solution. Once it gives the stats only guys is

0:34:39.520 --> 0:34:42.239
<v Speaker 6>the okay, and also the integrity of the band during

0:34:42.280 --> 0:34:45.359
<v Speaker 6>the player's life is maintained. I just kind of thought

0:34:45.400 --> 0:34:47.000
<v Speaker 6>that was an idea and see if it floated.

0:34:47.120 --> 0:34:54.080
<v Speaker 2>All right, Look, I don't want to have it's either

0:34:54.160 --> 0:34:57.279
<v Speaker 2>this or that. I'm open to it. I'm not big

0:34:57.320 --> 0:35:01.840
<v Speaker 2>on these guys who benefited because I put him in

0:35:01.880 --> 0:35:04.160
<v Speaker 2>there with other players that I grew up with, you know,

0:35:04.200 --> 0:35:09.000
<v Speaker 2>Johnny Bench, Hank Aaron, Willie Mays. You know, there's so

0:35:09.040 --> 0:35:12.319
<v Speaker 2>many players, but then they benefit. You know. Look, I

0:35:12.320 --> 0:35:14.239
<v Speaker 2>don't like a Rod Be in the face of baseball

0:35:14.280 --> 0:35:16.520
<v Speaker 2>with what he did to baseball, but you know that's

0:35:16.560 --> 0:35:18.440
<v Speaker 2>on Fox in the Mothership. If you can't come up

0:35:18.480 --> 0:35:21.400
<v Speaker 2>with somebody better, then all right, fine, I don't watch.

0:35:22.800 --> 0:35:27.879
<v Speaker 2>I feel bad for Jeters sitting there, But as many

0:35:27.880 --> 0:35:30.800
<v Speaker 2>people have told me, you need to get over yourself. Yeah,

0:35:31.320 --> 0:35:35.440
<v Speaker 2>probably do so I'll just get rid of steroid testing

0:35:35.480 --> 0:35:39.520
<v Speaker 2>and there to be okay, right, I mean, we have it,

0:35:39.719 --> 0:35:43.520
<v Speaker 2>let's utilize it. Maybe what we see is real, that's all.

0:35:44.120 --> 0:35:46.520
<v Speaker 2>And look, I'll go to my grave feeling that way

0:35:48.280 --> 0:35:52.319
<v Speaker 2>guys benefited. Bonds are passed, Hank Aaron All Time Home

0:35:52.400 --> 0:35:57.520
<v Speaker 2>Run Champ. It's not it's not right, not right, Michael

0:35:57.560 --> 0:36:00.120
<v Speaker 2>and Nashville. Hey Mike, what's on your mind today?

0:36:00.800 --> 0:36:06.439
<v Speaker 14>Hey Dan? Five? So Dan, I know you like dark

0:36:06.520 --> 0:36:09.600
<v Speaker 14>humor and referencing that chemo joke with Todd from earlier

0:36:09.600 --> 0:36:11.560
<v Speaker 14>in the week, I think I might have you beat.

0:36:11.920 --> 0:36:14.520
<v Speaker 14>I'm also part of the Dead Dad's Club. And quick

0:36:14.560 --> 0:36:17.280
<v Speaker 14>reference for this joke, My dad died on a first

0:36:17.400 --> 0:36:19.960
<v Speaker 14>date and he choked to death. So my girlfriend at

0:36:19.960 --> 0:36:22.560
<v Speaker 14>the time and I were walking down Bourbon Street and

0:36:22.600 --> 0:36:24.880
<v Speaker 14>she said, I don't think you can truly handle my

0:36:25.000 --> 0:36:27.440
<v Speaker 14>dark my real dark humor. I said, Oh, come on,

0:36:27.560 --> 0:36:29.839
<v Speaker 14>lay it on me. It can't be that bad. She said, well,

0:36:29.880 --> 0:36:31.840
<v Speaker 14>I have a really good joke about your dad, but

0:36:31.880 --> 0:36:33.600
<v Speaker 14>if I tried telling you, I would choke.

0:36:34.719 --> 0:36:39.200
<v Speaker 2>Wow. Well, so did you marry her?

0:36:40.000 --> 0:36:42.719
<v Speaker 14>No, we aren't together anymore. But I dropped my jaw

0:36:42.760 --> 0:36:43.080
<v Speaker 14>and I.

0:36:43.120 --> 0:36:45.160
<v Speaker 6>Was amazed by how quickly she had that.

0:36:45.280 --> 0:36:45.560
<v Speaker 14>Ready.

0:36:45.680 --> 0:36:47.840
<v Speaker 2>Wait, your dad died on a first date and he

0:36:47.920 --> 0:36:48.560
<v Speaker 2>choked to death.

0:36:49.640 --> 0:36:53.320
<v Speaker 14>Yeah, he did at a restaurant called Folks Folly in Memphis.

0:36:53.920 --> 0:36:58.520
<v Speaker 2>First date, last day, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Wait, what

0:36:58.680 --> 0:37:01.839
<v Speaker 2>was the Yelp review on that when two stars great

0:37:01.880 --> 0:37:06.240
<v Speaker 2>service for service to die for. Thank you, Michael.

0:37:06.280 --> 0:37:08.000
<v Speaker 7>He didn't have to pay for the day cost.

0:37:08.200 --> 0:37:10.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he didn't have to. She had to pick up

0:37:10.080 --> 0:37:13.480
<v Speaker 2>the check. I guess. And I was at a Chinese

0:37:13.520 --> 0:37:17.239
<v Speaker 2>restaurant in New York City when a gentleman had an episode.

0:37:17.360 --> 0:37:20.920
<v Speaker 2>He was having a stroke and the restaurant was packed

0:37:21.040 --> 0:37:25.160
<v Speaker 2>in Chinatown. People were stepping over the man while he

0:37:25.239 --> 0:37:30.799
<v Speaker 2>was on the floor. I style, Yes, ty Lou was

0:37:30.840 --> 0:37:34.680
<v Speaker 2>on the floor and everybody was iversent there. Willie in

0:37:34.760 --> 0:37:37.040
<v Speaker 2>West Virginia, Hi, Willie, what's on your mind today?

0:37:38.719 --> 0:37:39.040
<v Speaker 1>Listen?

0:37:39.160 --> 0:37:41.479
<v Speaker 15>Dan, trying to get a hold of you old like trying

0:37:41.520 --> 0:37:44.760
<v Speaker 15>to get a hold of Chave people. I've been trying

0:37:44.760 --> 0:37:47.640
<v Speaker 15>to call in and wish Mitchie welcome back from her

0:37:48.040 --> 0:37:54.759
<v Speaker 15>LEBA absence of her relegation, So welcome back part time. Secondly, Dan,

0:37:55.760 --> 0:37:59.360
<v Speaker 15>if I come out of retirement and knocking on that door.

0:37:59.200 --> 0:38:05.160
<v Speaker 2>You're relegating, thank you. Willie doing his Charles Barkley impersonation,

0:38:05.480 --> 0:38:14.799
<v Speaker 2>knuckle ahead, knucklehey, Ed Ryan and Sarahsota. Hi, Ryan, what's

0:38:14.880 --> 0:38:15.600
<v Speaker 2>on your mind today?

0:38:16.160 --> 0:38:16.560
<v Speaker 7>Hello?

0:38:17.520 --> 0:38:21.920
<v Speaker 2>No, no, no, not that Ryan, Yes, Ryan.

0:38:22.080 --> 0:38:27.360
<v Speaker 16>No, not Ryan from Honolulu. Hey, you just want to

0:38:27.400 --> 0:38:31.080
<v Speaker 16>save four pies to the face on this scenario. Since

0:38:31.160 --> 0:38:33.120
<v Speaker 16>the NBA draft is.

0:38:33.040 --> 0:38:37.120
<v Speaker 17>Not well stacked today, I believe what if one of

0:38:37.120 --> 0:38:41.680
<v Speaker 17>the other teams picked Bronni first, since Lebron's a free agent,

0:38:42.280 --> 0:38:45.880
<v Speaker 17>and then Lebron goes over to that team that picked Bronni.

0:38:46.160 --> 0:38:48.920
<v Speaker 16>And there you go, he has another championship.

0:38:49.600 --> 0:38:52.480
<v Speaker 2>You know, what we brought up was that you could

0:38:52.600 --> 0:38:54.840
<v Speaker 2>draft Bronnie and hold him hostage and then say to

0:38:54.880 --> 0:38:59.160
<v Speaker 2>the Lakers you have to give us whatever. But I

0:38:59.200 --> 0:39:01.560
<v Speaker 2>don't know if you want to cross Rich Paul Lebron

0:39:01.680 --> 0:39:05.000
<v Speaker 2>James agent there, and I don't think that Lebron is

0:39:05.000 --> 0:39:07.800
<v Speaker 2>going to go. You know what, where did Bronnie get drafted?

0:39:08.239 --> 0:39:12.640
<v Speaker 2>He got drafted by Brooklyn. I'm going to Brooklyn. I

0:39:12.640 --> 0:39:19.040
<v Speaker 2>don't think that's going to happen. Chris and Idaho, Hi, Chris, Hey, Dan.

0:39:20.320 --> 0:39:21.440
<v Speaker 18>First time, long time.

0:39:22.719 --> 0:39:23.399
<v Speaker 6>So I was.

0:39:24.880 --> 0:39:27.839
<v Speaker 18>Just thinking one way the Baseball Hall of Fame can

0:39:27.880 --> 0:39:31.040
<v Speaker 18>get these players in and kind of meet in the middle.

0:39:32.040 --> 0:39:37.880
<v Speaker 18>As old school video games, they used to not have players'

0:39:37.960 --> 0:39:41.799
<v Speaker 18>names but their number and position. Like Bill Belichick was

0:39:41.840 --> 0:39:45.160
<v Speaker 18>never in a video game of Coach Patriots, so maybe

0:39:45.200 --> 0:39:49.279
<v Speaker 18>they can do like number twenty five San Francisco Giants.

0:39:49.280 --> 0:39:53.759
<v Speaker 2>Well, I appreciate that. It's if they put him in,

0:39:53.800 --> 0:39:55.800
<v Speaker 2>they put him in, and I'm not going to lose

0:39:55.840 --> 0:40:00.440
<v Speaker 2>sleep over it. It just feels like baseball's trying to

0:40:00.560 --> 0:40:06.080
<v Speaker 2>move fast. Leave that in the in its wake, and

0:40:06.120 --> 0:40:08.600
<v Speaker 2>that it never happened or it wasn't that big a

0:40:08.640 --> 0:40:09.919
<v Speaker 2>deal when it happened. Yes, Marv.

0:40:10.160 --> 0:40:13.960
<v Speaker 9>In the general public, seven fifty five, seven fourteen, six,

0:40:14.120 --> 0:40:17.000
<v Speaker 9>sixty five, twenty one, you know those numbers. I know

0:40:17.520 --> 0:40:20.320
<v Speaker 9>Barry bonds home on total, but most people have no clue.

0:40:20.520 --> 0:40:21.360
<v Speaker 9>It doesn't mean anything.

0:40:22.000 --> 0:40:24.080
<v Speaker 2>Let's go around the room. If we learned anything, Todd,

0:40:24.120 --> 0:40:24.960
<v Speaker 2>would you learn today?

0:40:25.080 --> 0:40:26.880
<v Speaker 10>The Lakers realistic goals should be to try and be

0:40:26.880 --> 0:40:28.920
<v Speaker 10>a four or five seed, maybe second round of the playoffs.

0:40:29.000 --> 0:40:30.040
<v Speaker 10>Not to be a playoff team.

0:40:30.120 --> 0:40:32.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, not a in play in team. Seat No, O Connor,

0:40:32.640 --> 0:40:32.920
<v Speaker 2>would you.

0:40:33.000 --> 0:40:34.719
<v Speaker 5>Learn Denwyck He may or may not have been on

0:40:34.760 --> 0:40:36.120
<v Speaker 5>stage with Kenjil Kamar this week.

0:40:36.160 --> 0:40:39.560
<v Speaker 2>We don't know. I know, O boy, that was in it.

0:40:39.640 --> 0:40:41.759
<v Speaker 2>You had some ball players up there, Yeah, I had

0:40:41.800 --> 0:40:45.000
<v Speaker 2>some ball players up there. Yikes, Marvin, you're not big

0:40:45.040 --> 0:40:49.000
<v Speaker 2>on championship parades. No, I'm not No, they get sloppy. Paul,

0:40:49.120 --> 0:40:50.480
<v Speaker 2>what'd you learn today? JJ?

0:40:50.640 --> 0:40:53.319
<v Speaker 7>Reddick's middle name is Clay Todd.

0:40:53.320 --> 0:40:54.280
<v Speaker 2>Would I learn today?

0:40:54.440 --> 0:40:56.720
<v Speaker 10>Doug Gottlie will be making his UW Green Bay coaching

0:40:56.760 --> 0:40:58.960
<v Speaker 10>debut against Oklahomas.

0:40:58.960 --> 0:41:02.120
