52
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 7: Program where LeVar Arrington was at Penn State Universe. She

53
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 7: was terrorizing people on that grid. I was.

54
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,359
Speaker 2: I was a nice guy, man. I was a nice guy.

55
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 2: I was always nice.

56
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 4: I also always wanted to be friends with everyone, you know.

57
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 7: I also heard discussing Deshaun Watson. It's actually I was

58
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 7: just ready tapping into his contract situation. Like he is made.

59
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 7: He's guaranteed two hundred and thirty North American dollars. Bro

60
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:26,839
Speaker 7: that's a lot of smack of room.

61
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, and in the last and then the last year. Yeah,

62
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 4: in the last year of that, think about that time flies.

63
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 7: Like his agent shout out to his agent, because his

64
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 7: agent I need his agent, like his agent man to

65
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 7: be able to pull off this deal. Like how many

66
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 7: when you guys love to have that contract where you

67
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 7: have a few years off you can rehab. I'm seeing this.

68
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 2: A few years his whole career.

69
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 7: Look, I'm seeing him on Instagram. He and kayland him bally.

70
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 7: I'm like, yo, he's really a great deal. So set

71
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 7: to his agents, y'all really feel like he is going

72
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 7: to be the starter over Shador.

73
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 4: I think he's the best option they without knowing anything

74
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 4: more about where he's at in his career. I think

75
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 4: he's still their best option. Like I said, I don't

76
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:24,479
Speaker 4: think that he is an elite franchise quarterback, but I

77
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 4: do think he's better than Shador and Dylan at this

78
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 4: point and Dylan in Shador's career, which would to me,

79
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 4: I think he gives them the best chance at least.

80
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,040
Speaker 4: I want to see if I'm wrong, but I would

81
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,039
Speaker 4: want to measure and see if he especially just because

82
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 4: it's right like those guys are on their rookie contracts.

83
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 4: I want to see if I can get some at

84
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 4: least a tad bit of a return on my investment

85
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 4: on Deshaun Watson.

86
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 2: So that's how I look at I don't know about you, Plex.

87
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, listen, I believe when it just comes

88
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 5: down to playing the position, when it comes down to

89
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 5: you know, throwing the football, uh, you know, reading coverages

90
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 5: and making decisions, I just believe that he's the best

91
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 5: pure quarterback that they currently have on the roster. And

92
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 5: I just think that even if the short Deshaun Watson,

93
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 5: you know, has a better showing in the preseason, and

94
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 5: you know, he goes out and he lights it up.

95
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 5: I just believe it's if it's remotely even close to

96
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 5: you know, to to select who's going to be the

97
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 5: starting quarterback in the opening day. I just believe that

98
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 5: Andrew Berry is going to have to step in because

99
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 5: he created this mess with the contract and DeShawn Johnson

100
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 5: and Deshaun Watson that they are going to have to

101
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 5: make him the start of or else.

102
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 2: Andrew Barry is no longer going to be the general

103
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 2: manager for the Cleveland Browns.

104
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 7: Speaking of quarterbacks, I heard you guys, is your probably

105
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 7: he's probably on that hook. Yeah, I heard you guys

106
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 7: saying about Mendoza, right, Is that Fernando Mendoza? Is that story?

107
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 2: Yeah?

108
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:09,600
Speaker 7: Get arrested?

109
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 4: Yes, Okay, So here we go. So it's been reported

110
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 4: we don't have do we not have the sound? But

111
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:18,479
Speaker 4: we don't have a sound.

112
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 2: Oh, we have the sound. Let's listen to it.

113
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 4: Let's listen to Let's listen to what Fernando had to

114
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 4: say about NFL team and what they asked him.

115
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 1: What was the one most bizarre question you got?

116
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 2: What about Hey.

117
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 4: It was hey, maybe you should get arrested, and I

118
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 4: was like, and I was a little confused, but then

119
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,359
Speaker 4: I was like, the slide, So hopefully I don't get arrested.

120
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: I don't cut that one biggest slide in the draft

121
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 1: that it was.

122
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 2: Not one of the teams I had a formal interview with.

123
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 2: So I'm not gonna.

124
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:54,920
Speaker 4: I don't want I don't want to expose the team. Okay,

125
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,479
Speaker 4: I got to tell you, I mean, plex do you

126
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 4: have Do you have have age story? Because there's there,

127
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 4: like to every joke, there's just right, like there's just

128
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 4: in there like they meant it, they meant doing. So

129
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 4: you don't go to Las Vegas and play for dead serious,

130
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 4: dead serious? Do you have any stories placks from from

131
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 4: your interviews?

132
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 2: Absolutely so.

133
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 5: As I said earlier, you know, uh, you know, Peter

134
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 5: Ward was being projected as you know, the best quarter,

135
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 5: the best wide receiver in the draft, and I thought

136
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 5: that I was so when he said he wasn't going

137
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 5: to work out, I didn't work out. So as the

138
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 5: weekend had progressed, you know, I'm knowing that I'm going

139
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 5: to be a top ten pick, so I'm not working out.

140
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 5: And after that I didn't go see any other teams

141
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 5: after the Baltimore After the Baltimore Ravens second pick, which

142
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 5: was Travis Taylor at number ten, so I went I

143
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 5: went to evening, I went to the Cleveland Browns meeting.

144
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 5: I went to the Baltimore Ravens. I went to the

145
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 5: Arizona Cardins, I went to the Philadelphia Eagles because all

146
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 5: of those teams were in the top ten.

147
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 2: So after the Baltimore Ravens, I did not go.

148
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 5: See any other teams for the interview because I was

149
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 5: I basically told them, I said, listen, why am I

150
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 5: going to an interview with you if you're Denver Broncos

151
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 5: and you had a twenty third pick.

152
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 2: It just made no sense to me.

153
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 5: So they threw me under the bus during the whole

154
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 5: Combine weekend because while these guys were sitting in an

155
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 5: interview room with these NFL teams, I was at there

156
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 5: and they had a Pacers game, sitting on the floor

157
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 5: watching the basketball. So basically threw me after the bus.

158
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,320
Speaker 5: I'm sitting on the floor for the Pacers game. They

159
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 5: had like a three game home stretch and here I

160
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 5: am sitting on the floor. Washington, Indiana places play basketball

161
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 5: while by the NFL meetings were going on. And you

162
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 5: know who I did not interview with, Hey, the Pittsburgh

163
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 5: Steelers and who drafted me the Pittsburgh Steelers.

164
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,679
Speaker 2: Really yeah, I didn't.

165
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 5: Interview with the Pittsburgh Steelers while I was there, and

166
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 5: they drafted me.

167
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 2: So the last day they come to me, it's the

168
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:27,679
Speaker 2: New York Giants.

169
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 5: Man, it's about I don't know, seven eight o'clock at

170
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 5: night and they say, hey, man, we want to meet

171
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 5: with you are like eight o'clock and I was like, dog, listen.

172
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 5: They hand me this scantron. It has three hundred cruestions

173
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 5: on it and I said, look, man, with dog due respect,

174
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,559
Speaker 5: you guys have the twenty eighth pick in the draft.

175
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 5: I'm not coming to that meeting. And he walks out

176
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 5: and he says, man, you shouldn't do that. You shouldn't

177
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 5: burn bridges with other teams.

178
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 2: And you know who traded it for me, The New

179
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 2: York Giants. So that's my store.

180
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 5: Teams that I didn't meet with I prayed for.

181
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:14,800
Speaker 2: So that was my weekend at the NFL combine.

182
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 5: Both teams I did not interview with, so two things

183
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 5: I asked for.

184
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 2: So what so at the end of the day, what

185
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,960
Speaker 2: you're saying is it don't matter to me.

186
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 5: It didn't go ahead, go God, I'm just being honest

187
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 5: with you.

188
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 7: I was saying, my foder sentence is telling me this

189
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 7: sounds like the New Orleans saying this sounds like a

190
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 7: New Orleans saying type of job, or a Miami Dolphin

191
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 7: type of job.

192
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 6: It was like shape, I'm not.

193
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 7: You know what, like, I feel like, well, these gouts,

194
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 7: I wouldn't say it was the Raiders doing this, but

195
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 7: they're the first pick. So why would they Why would

196
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 7: they sabotage.

197
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,680
Speaker 2: Trying to No, they saying don't go. Yeah, they saying

198
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,680
Speaker 2: don't got me, let me you. I got one story

199
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 2: for you. Piggy backing off of that cuffs God.

200
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 5: If Fernando was Mendozo, would uh mentioned the team that

201
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,199
Speaker 5: said that? I mean, what do you think that? What

202
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 5: would happen with this organization? If he was, they get

203
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 5: actually asked him that.

204
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 4: Hey, who'd be thugging and bugging like that though, too,

205
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 4: I mean, what would they say that?

206
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:34,959
Speaker 2: I think it's the Jets. Yeah, I think the Jets

207
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 2: said I.

208
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:40,679
Speaker 4: Think they would get smashed if he mentions the team

209
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 4: that asked him to do that.

210
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 2: I don't think it.

211
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:48,560
Speaker 4: I don't think, yeah, you snitched on something that that

212
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 4: I don't know that that could come on badly, that

213
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,120
Speaker 4: could come that could go badly.

214
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,319
Speaker 2: And I don't know, not even be a top ten

215
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:57,560
Speaker 2: picking team. It might not.

216
00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know it would have to be

217
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 4: a top ten team because he ain't slide out side

218
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 4: of the tent even if he got arrested. But super

219
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,560
Speaker 4: quick before we go to the break. So my story,

220
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 4: I met with the Redskins, and I had already met

221
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 4: with the Cleveland Browns. I had met with a host

222
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 4: of teams, but I had had one in particular with

223
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:23,600
Speaker 4: the Browns. Went really well, and I told you know,

224
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 4: I told them, you know that the meeting went really well,

225
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 4: and you know, you know, just wanting to figure out what,

226
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 4: you know, what's next to you know, build relationship. Build

227
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 4: they told me. Dad Snyder out of his mouth, told me,

228
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 4: here's what I want you to do the next time

229
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,199
Speaker 4: you go for your personal interview with the Cleveland Browns,

230
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 4: I want.

231
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 2: You to go in.

232
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 4: I want you to stand on that Cleveland Brown's logo.

233
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 4: I want you to unzip your pants. I want you

234
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 4: to whip it out, and I want you to. He

235
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 4: said it in a different way, but he said basically,

236
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:02,560
Speaker 4: I want you to defoul the Cleveland Browns logo with

237
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 4: your you know, with what you do if you go

238
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 4: to the restroom and then walk out and say hell

239
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,319
Speaker 4: to the Redskins and go to the airport.

240
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,040
Speaker 2: That's my story.

241
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 4: From the NFL draft and and well not the draft,

242
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 4: but from the combine as to how I should handle

243
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 4: my my talks with with.

244
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 2: The Cleveland Browns. That is a true story.

245
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 4: Told me to, told me to go ahead and tinkle

246
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 4: take a tinkle when I went to the Cleveland Browns

247
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 4: facility and make sure I do it on their logo.

248
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 4: They ended up making it to the playoffs before we

249
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 4: did it too, by the way, So it doesn't always

250
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:42,439
Speaker 4: work out the way that you think it's going to

251
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 4: work out. Just like Plex said, he went to the

252
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 4: teams that that he didn't do interviews with or whatever.

253
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 2: But that's my story from from the whole deal.

254
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 4: So they do tell wild They do tell players to

255
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,080
Speaker 4: do wild stuff or think about wild things as it

256
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 4: applies to potential becoming a part of their team.

257
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 2: But it's interesting.

258
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,680
Speaker 4: Mendoza scenes that are taking it in in great stride

259
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 4: and no no harm, no foul. But it would be

260
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:14,359
Speaker 4: it would be fun if some way, somehow somebody uncovered

261
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 4: who it was and what team it was that that

262
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 4: made this comment to Mendoza, We're.

263
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 2: Gonna take a quick break.

264
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 4: On the other side of the break, yeah, yep, we're

265
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 4: gonna get to basketball now. A legend from the Lakers

266
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 4: said that, man, maybe Lebron need to tail it up

267
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 4: out of here. Cuff's been saying it for a little bit.

268
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 4: We're gonna talk about that and a whole lot more

269
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 4: on the other side of the break you're listening to

270

290
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 4: Up on Game on Fox Sports Radio. We will get

291
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 4: to Lebron James. We also will get to a trending

292
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 4: from Isaac Longcron. But first I gotta maintain be in

293
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 4: a radio professional. Whenever you give a tea, you gotta

294
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 4: pay the tease off.

295
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 2: Y'all.

296
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 4: I told y'all about the Colts Anthony Richardson. They mutually

297
00:15:55,560 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 4: agree to doing a trade seeking a new home. They

298
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 4: agreed to it. How do you guys react to this?

299
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 4: Anthony Richardson was the number four overall pick. He's hitting

300
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 4: into the fourth year of his contract, which means he's

301
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 4: still on his rookie contract. Did not play much last year. Obviously,

302
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 4: Daniel Jones comes in, he gets hurt, and that didn't

303
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 4: in the way that they wanted. At the end, they

304
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 4: bring in old ass Philip Rivers that didn't end the

305
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 4: way that they wanted it to end, and yet instill

306
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:33,359
Speaker 4: they're looking to go in a different direction from Anthony Richardson.

307
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 4: Is this a mistake, fellas or how do you view this?

308
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 4: Can Anthony Richardson bounce back from smashing his face in

309
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 4: from a workout court that hit him in the face

310
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 4: and wasn't able to play because of that? Kenny recover

311
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 4: from checking himself out of a game?

312
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:53,320
Speaker 2: Are you not okay?

313
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 4: You know there was a big conversation on two pros

314
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 4: about that being a horrible thing what he did.

315
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,240
Speaker 2: He lost all his back from his teammates.

316
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,359
Speaker 4: I get it, I understand it, But is there something

317
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,640
Speaker 4: to it to be said about Anthony Richardson saying listen,

318
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,399
Speaker 4: I was tired on the play. I tapped out to

319
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 4: get myself a break. That's not generally what a quarterback does.

320
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 7: Uh.

321
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,680
Speaker 4: How do y'all see this situation with Anthony Richardson?

322
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:24,159
Speaker 7: I think he should come to the Carolina packins h

323
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 7: and back up and be a back up for Bryce Young.

324
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,879
Speaker 7: Like look at the physical attributes, Like he has the

325
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,200
Speaker 7: same body type of a Cam new and then Cam

326
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:36,160
Speaker 7: Newon is a former Panther ed and you see them,

327
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,200
Speaker 7: they just you know, they just didn't break Cam. They

328
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 7: brought his family back. It's being like a weird relationship

329
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,440
Speaker 7: with them, with those two. But I feel like he

330
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 7: can be a backup for a young quarterback like Bryce Young.

331
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:49,840
Speaker 7: I don't really see too many other landing spots for

332
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:54,400
Speaker 7: a rich like maybe Arizona. You know, they're still trying

333
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 7: to figure out what they want to do with Kyler Murray.

334
00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:58,920
Speaker 7: You know, you want to play call of duty more

335
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:02,640
Speaker 7: than football, but work, you know, the Jets, maybe the Jets,

336
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:06,640
Speaker 7: maybe the what's the worst that can happen? What's the worst.

337
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 2: The worst that can happen?

338
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 5: Listen, just just because I get it, I get the

339
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:19,200
Speaker 5: the the physical build between you know, Anthony Richardson, Cam Newton,

340
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,359
Speaker 5: but we just gotta just you know.

341
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 2: He's no Cam. He's no Cam.

342
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:27,959
Speaker 5: I mean, I honestly believe he needs a reset. And

343
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 5: if if I am Anthony Richardson, who I thought was

344
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:38,359
Speaker 5: the the who had who had the highest ceiling uh

345
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 5: potential to being a franchise quarterback when he was drafted

346
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 5: a few years ago, I thought it was him and

347
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,199
Speaker 5: as you can see, we've all been wrong, but I

348
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 5: believe I believe he needs a reset. He needs to

349
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 5: get to another team that can really hone in on

350
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 5: his uh uh you know, his his skills and make

351
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:08,919
Speaker 5: him a better quarterback. We all know he hasn't been

352
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,480
Speaker 5: able to stay healthy. But he needs to get to

353
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 5: a system maybe like Minnesota Vikings and play for Kevin O'Connell.

354
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 2: I like that.

355
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,920
Speaker 5: That's that's the call a head coach who is going

356
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:25,200
Speaker 5: to teach him how to play the game. Uh at

357
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 5: the quarterback position. He doesn't need to just go somewhere

358
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 5: where he can just go play. He needs he needs

359
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:35,199
Speaker 5: to understand, he needs how to play the position. He

360
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,400
Speaker 5: needs to develop. He needs to get better. And if

361
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,640
Speaker 5: I'm him and if and if I'm his agent, I'm

362
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 5: looking at places to where he can go and learn.

363
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 5: I don't believe he's going to learn anything behind Bryce Young.

364
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,920
Speaker 5: I'm just being honest. He needs to go somewhere where

365
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:56,359
Speaker 5: he can play. And because Minnesota is not fully sold

366
00:19:56,400 --> 00:20:00,359
Speaker 5: on JJ McCarthy, they're not moving forward, so maybe he

367
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:02,719
Speaker 5: can come in there that they can have maybe a

368
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,680
Speaker 5: two quarterback system that he got he has some plays

369
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 5: JJ has has his package, uh where where he can

370
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 5: go ask some value buff Right now, I just don't

371
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:16,159
Speaker 5: see him making progress in Indianapolis because it just seems

372
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 5: like to me that they're they're sold on Daniel Jones

373
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 5: and he's going to be the starting quarterback when he

374
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 5: comes back from injury. So if I'm if I'm the agent,

375
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:28,159
Speaker 5: if I'm I'm looking and if I'm Anthony Richardster, That's.

376
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 2: What I'm looking for, you know, moving on to another team.

377
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 4: I think Minnesota sounds interesting and intriguing. One I would

378
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,719
Speaker 4: throw out there, even though they don't have the weapons

379
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 4: that they have in Minnesota, would be Pittsburgh. You got

380
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 4: a new start in Pittsburgh with with Mike McCarthy. Mike

381
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,879
Speaker 4: McCarthy is known for being able to develop quarterbacks, obviously

382
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 4: famed working with Aaron Rodgers. They're rebuilding there, so he's

383
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:57,959
Speaker 4: not going to have to come in and be asked

384
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 4: to do everything from day one. They are going to

385
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:04,200
Speaker 4: try to figure it out. It's not a brilliant free

386
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 4: agency class for a rope bus market to be able

387
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,920
Speaker 4: to bring in guys that are going to like do

388
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:13,880
Speaker 4: what you did in New England, where you can get

389
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 4: in the free agency market and build a Super Bowl

390
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:21,920
Speaker 4: competitive team. So I think that Minnesota makes a lot

391
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 4: of sense. But don't be you know, don't be shocked

392
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:29,680
Speaker 4: if Pittsburgh finds themselves in the mix of potentially trying

393
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 4: to bring Anthony Richardson to Pittsburgh. I hear he's a

394
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:38,080
Speaker 4: good dude. I just wonder is it maturity issues? Is

395
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:42,480
Speaker 4: it just a matter of timing or the environment he's in.

396
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:43,640
Speaker 2: I don't know.

397
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,199
Speaker 4: I think he gets one more chance to potentially be

398
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,280
Speaker 4: a starter in this league just based upon some of

399
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:54,919
Speaker 4: the holes that exists in Minnesota and Pittsburgh sound like

400
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 4: two different, you know, interesting places that it could work.

401
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 4: And I would throw Baltimore in there as if you're

402
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 4: going to go somewhere like like what you said, cuffs

403
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 4: to back somebody up, go back Lamar Jackson up, and

404
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 4: go learn that offense. You get to learn a new

405
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 4: offense with Lamar Jackson. So you're not all the way

406
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,920
Speaker 4: far back in terms of your learning curve of what's

407
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,879
Speaker 4: going to be asked of you within the scheme. And

408
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 4: you would assume that they have a lot of the

409
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:26,720
Speaker 4: same attributes, right, they both are very athletic, scary athletic.

410
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 2: Both have really really good arms.

411
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,800
Speaker 4: I mean Ar's arm is really really He's got a

412
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 4: really strong arm. Maybe it's the opportunity to work behind

413
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:40,440
Speaker 4: a Lamar Jackson and learn what's going on in that scenario,

414
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 4: and that could potentially be a positive move for him.

415
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,199
Speaker 4: But we'll see how that all plays out. As we

416
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 4: just paid off the teas for the Colts and Anthony Richardson,

417
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:55,239
Speaker 4: let's get an update from Isaac Lohingkron and then we

418
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 4: will talk LA Lakers basketball, of course, because that's what

419
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:03,160
Speaker 4: we do talk about keeping up with Lebron James and

420
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 4: other LA Laker affairs on this show is Loo. Your

421
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 4: brother is here, your brother, your stepbrother is here, like

422
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:11,560

00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:12,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, cut cuffs.

424
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 9: I think that LeVar suspending you from last week's program

425
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,200
Speaker 9: was completely unwarranted at all.

426
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:22,359
Speaker 4: Access there was just too much brotherly love going on

427
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:23,160
Speaker 4: between y'all two.

428
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 2: I had to break it up, man, I had to Breakallo.

Speaker 9: No offense man. But not only is a kangaroo knocking

00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:59,640
Speaker 9: you out, It's knocking both Mayweather and Paquia.

443
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 7: Don't believe in.

444
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,879
Speaker 9: Your boy, No, no, no, Look, here's here's my power rankings.

445
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:12,160
Speaker 9: I got Mayweather in Pakiow tied for third. I got

446
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,639
Speaker 9: you second, and I got the kangaroo number one, so

447
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 9: I got you. I had a Mayweather in Pacia goes

448
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:20,879
Speaker 9: and that's no cap. Did I say that right?

449
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:20,920

Speaker 2: well done.

452
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 9: Speaking of rankings, Cuff has long had Duke at number one,

453
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,959
Speaker 9: and right now they are living up to his advanced billing.

454
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:36,200
Speaker 9: They lead eleventh rank Virginia fifty five to thirty seven,

455
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 9: with eleven minutes and fifty one seconds remaining in the

456
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 9: second half, led by Isaiah Evans nineteen points and five

457
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,640
Speaker 9: to three pointers, Cameron Boozer with fourteen eleven of them

458
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 9: from the free throw out of the Blue Devils holding

459
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 9: Virginia to thirty two percent shooting from the field. Number

460
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 9: five Houston cruising as well. They lead Colorado seventy five

461
00:24:56,320 --> 00:25:00,239
Speaker 9: to fifty eleven minutes and thirty six seconds remaining in

462
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 9: the second half. Colorado is shooting fifty six percent from

463
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 9: the field, but they're still losing by twenty five because

464
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,680
Speaker 9: Houston shooting sixty percent and is seven out of thirteen

465
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 9: from three point range. Finally, how about this Number six

466
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,919
Speaker 9: Yukon at home and Gamble Pavilion right now losing to

467
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:21,159
Speaker 9: Seton Paul fifty one to forty six with nine minutes

468
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,399
Speaker 9: and fifty five seconds remaining in the second half, as

469
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,480
Speaker 9: the Pirates shooting fifty six percent from the field on

Speaker 4: Post it right after we get off of the air.

485
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,880
Speaker 4: All right, all right, we got some sound here, fellas,

486
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 4: and it came from one Byron Scott, a Lakers legend,

487
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 4: someone who has participated and have been a major part

488
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,880
Speaker 4: of this Lakers community. Here's what he had to say

489
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:29,200
Speaker 4: about Lebron James.

490
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 5: I just thought it was laughable, you know, coming from

491
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 5: one of the greatest players that ever played a game

492
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 5: to say that it was harder.

493
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,640
Speaker 2: It's harder to play now than it was then. Are

494
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 2: you ready to see him go from the Lakers?

495
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 7: Yeah?

496
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 5: You know, I mean, like I said, I'm a fan,

497
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 5: but you know I don't mince words either.

498
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 2: I mean I think this should be his last year here.

499
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:54,359
Speaker 2: All right, y'all got the floor?

500
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 3: Bro?

501
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 7: Can I keep this spicy?

502
00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:58,160
Speaker 2: Keep it spicy?

503
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:03,119
Speaker 7: Can I use you listen? Man? You know, growing up,

504
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 7: we had this phrase we called we say o, g right.

505
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,639
Speaker 7: It's like an enduring phrase where when gods were older,

506
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,600
Speaker 7: they had gray hairs. You know, we consider them like

507
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,280
Speaker 7: the OG, no matter if it was in our neighborhood,

508
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 7: you know, the community center of basketball coaches, football coaches.

509
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:22,160
Speaker 7: We revered guys like I revered Magic Johnson and Kareem

510
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:26,640
Speaker 7: and Worthy and the showtime Lakers Byron Scott running the wing,

511
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:30,159
Speaker 7: Magic Johnson, hitting the withy, the no look Byron Scott

512
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,760
Speaker 7: sixty three six four, dunking on people. I have respects

513
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 7: for Byron Scott. But now when you see these guys

514
00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:41,120
Speaker 7: go from being OG to just old and grumpy, that's

515
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 7: what OG stands for now, because no, yeah, it's old

516
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 7: and grumpy in it. If you really want to peel

517
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,880
Speaker 7: back the layers of the saltiness you hear coming from

518
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 7: a Byron Scott because he's not the only Laker legend

519
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:01,159
Speaker 7: that took shots at Ron. Because the thing is, to

520
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 7: be perfectly honest, the Laker fan base never wanted Lebron

521
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:10,440
Speaker 7: to be a Laker, like they were in the project

522
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 7: as a basketball franchise for at least five to six

523
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,400
Speaker 7: years post Kobe. Like you've seen the rosters they put

524
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:20,360
Speaker 7: out there, Kendall, Marshall, Roberts, Sockery. They had just anybody

525
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:23,400
Speaker 7: on the Lakers at one point, right, and for some

526
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 7: reason the fan base and the legends like Virons Scott,

527
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:31,439
Speaker 7: have become ungrateful. Man. And I actually spoke Lebron yesterday

528
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,879
Speaker 7: because I was one of the first people to actually

529
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 7: break this story. Like I posted that clip and then

530
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 7: all the other accounts started, you know, the aggregator started

531
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 7: retweeting it, and Lebron literally reached out to me. I

532
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 7: can't repeat what he said to me, but it's like,

533
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 7: it's kind of hurtful where you like, Man, I came

534
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 7: to LA because I always wanted Lebron speaking like Lebron

535
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 7: always wanted to be a Laker, just like any kid

536
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:57,960
Speaker 7: growing up. But to hear the vitriol and the venom

537
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,120
Speaker 7: from the fan base right now as they reached like

538
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 7: their breakup, because it's inevitable, but it's kind of crazy

539
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 7: to hear legends speak like that about a guy who's

540
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 7: been nothing but a role model for everybody, no matter

541
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:15,719
Speaker 7: your race background, Like he's a father figure. We've seen him. Man,

542
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 7: he loves the game. Braun loved basketball. That's why he's

543
00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 7: still playing and he almost fifty, so he should be

544
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 7: you know, I feel like he should be more embraced

545
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 7: than hated, and he's being hated.

546
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 2: I don't disagree with that. I don't disagree with that

547
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 2: at all. Cuffs, let me ask you a question.

548
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 7: It's crazy.

549
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 5: So when you hear you know, you know, Byron Scott

550
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 5: and you know, some of these guys coming out and

551
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 5: saying that, you know, he needs to get the hell

552
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 5: up out of here, do you think that they're trying

553
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 5: to say that he should retire or he should move

554
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 5: on to the from the Los Angeles Lakers to another team.

555
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 5: What do you think he was trying to say?

556
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 7: That's exactly what he was saying. Even in that clip.

557
00:29:57,840 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 7: If people go back and here the whole clip, he

558
00:29:59,920 --> 00:30:02,479
Speaker 7: was saying, like he's not saying Lebron doesn't, you know,

559
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 7: walk away from the game and retire. They just don't

560
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,280
Speaker 7: want him on the Lakers anymore. And it's a lot

561
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 7: of people within the organization. Nobody want to say the

562
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:12,520
Speaker 7: quiet part out loud, but I will because I'm affiliated

563
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 7: with a lot of people like this was a great

564
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 7: business move for Lebron to come out to LA and

565
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,840
Speaker 7: expand your brand and everything, and he won the championship.

566
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 2: But from a pub come on now, the bubble, the bubble,

567
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 2: the bubbleship, But.

568
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 7: Listen from a pure basket, from a pure, a pure

569
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 7: basketball standpoint, with the infrastructure around you like the Oklahoma

570
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 7: City Thunder and the Spurs type organization. I know for

571
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:40,880
Speaker 7: a fact if Lebron, even if he was stayed in

572
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:44,240
Speaker 7: Miami and that infrastructure, they would have put the rights

573
00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 7: pieces around him after they won that championship. The Lakers

574
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 7: have faltered in a lot of different ways with you've

575
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 7: seen in the last couple of years, even this past

576
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,640
Speaker 7: off season when they acquire Luca. They acquire Luca and

577
00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 7: Rock Lincoln hasn't done anything to pass to trade del

578
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,240
Speaker 7: including this past trade deadline. The Laker fans are fed

579
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 7: up with Luca. Now they're starting to turn on Luca.

580
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 7: So that's my point. The Laker fans are gonna turn

581
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 7: on every player, star player, role player. They've done it

582
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,480
Speaker 7: to everybody, even Kobe Bryant rest in peace. They turn

583
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 7: on everybody. Yes, that's my thing. Like, I don't understand

584
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 7: why they're the most delusional fan base. It's hard to

585
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,400
Speaker 7: root for the Lakers because of the Laker Nation. If

586
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 7: y'all get what I'm saying, Like, look how they're doing

587
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:29,280
Speaker 7: the legends on their way out.

588
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:34,560
Speaker 4: M I don't know how you feel about it, Plax,

589
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 4: like that is he an old grumpy or is he?

590
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 4: Is he spot on with what he's saying.

591
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know.

592
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 5: I think it has a lot to do with you

593
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:49,960
Speaker 5: know what he he's his accomplishments also, I mean, he

594
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,320
Speaker 5: did come there with the championship, championship, even though it

595
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 5: was in a bubble, you know, it's still a championship.

596
00:31:56,520 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 5: And he's the all time leading scorer, which no body

597
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 5: foresaw anybody doing in the NBA, especially you know, you

598
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 5: know him breaking you know, Kareem's record and a Lakers jersey.

599
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:14,080
Speaker 5: I think you know after that, people as you were

600
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 5: just throwing salt at him just because of you know,

601
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 5: because of his accomplishments in that jersey. It's like Cup say,

602
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 5: you know, everybody that the fan base doesn't want him

603
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 5: to be a member of this team, and all he has.

604
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 2: Done is be a great player.

605
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 5: And I don't understand that a lot of the ogs,

606
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 5: like Cup say old and grumpy of salty because they're

607
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:44,320
Speaker 5: going to be talking about Lebron James, you know, for

608
00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 5: the next fifty one hundred years as being the greatest

609
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 5: Laker to play.

610
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 2: And they don't like that. Let's just be honest. They

611
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 2: don't like it because he's not. He's not what you mean.

612
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:02,080
Speaker 2: He's not the greatest Laker, Bro, He's not not. I'm

613
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:05,720
Speaker 2: not saying that he is. That's just he should That's

614
00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:08,840
Speaker 2: what you can later. The greatest Laker man, he's the

615
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 2: all time league school in NBA history, I don't think.

616
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 4: But he's not the all time greatest Laker. He's not

617
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 4: even top three top.

618
00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,960
Speaker 7: Magic Johnson, Magic Johnson, Magic Urbans Irban, Magic Johnson is

619
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 7: the all time Laker. That's who I think of when

620
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 7: I think of that franchise.

621
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:26,960
Speaker 5: Okay, do you think do you think that Lebron James

622
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 5: is a better Laker than than Bron Scott?

623
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:29,360
Speaker 2: Yes?

624
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 4: All right then, but but hold on now, But Byron

625
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 4: Scott was a major key piece and Laker teams when

626
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 4: they want championship.

627
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:47,360
Speaker 5: Was Lebron Jays got courer better than Byron Scott?

628
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 2: I asked you a question, James Worthies was.

629
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 4: James Worthy er I'm going, I'm going, I'm going I'm

630
00:33:54,640 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 4: going Magic, Wilt, the Stilt, Korea.

631
00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 2: Come on, man, he might Lebron might not be top five.

632
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:11,719
Speaker 4: Like, okay, so you got you got, you got, you

633
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 4: got Magic, you got you got Will, you got you

634
00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 4: got uh, you got Kareem, you have Worthy, you you

635
00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:24,880
Speaker 4: have Shaq, you have Kobe. And put them in whatever

636
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:26,920
Speaker 4: order you want to put them in. But they all

637
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 4: come before Lebron as a Laker.

638
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:33,839
Speaker 2: Not you forgot Jerry West.

639
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 7: Jerry West is lebar. I think the point is James

640
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 7: you just mentioned. Did you see how Laker fans treated

641
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:42,759
Speaker 7: those guys on their way out? They don't.

642
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 4: I mean there was hate, they there was there. They

643
00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:49,640
Speaker 4: love they love magic, they love magic. I'd say he's

644
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:52,560
Speaker 4: the only one maybe, I mean James Worthy. They didn't

645
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 4: treat him bad, James Worthy as a hero like I

646
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:58,880
Speaker 4: think they're they're I mean Shaq. You know, Shaq was

647
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 4: a traveler. He came from mo Orlando. You know Kareem

648
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 4: came from Milwaukee. He came from different places, you know.

649
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:10,720
Speaker 4: But I feel like Will, will And and Kobe and Magic,

650
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:14,720
Speaker 4: those three, and like you said, Jerry West, those four

651
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:16,800
Speaker 4: are in a They're in a league of their own.

652
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:21,399
Speaker 4: As as as Lakers. But that's just me. We're out

653
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:23,520
Speaker 4: of time. I hate it because this is a this

654
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 4: is a good conversation that could could continue on. Because

655
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:30,000
Speaker 4: Byron Scott did win three championships with that Lake Show.

656
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,919
Speaker 4: He was a part of the creation of the personality

657
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 4: of the Lake Show. You take away Byron Scott, they

658
00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:37,920
Speaker 4: might not have as much success as they did.

659
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:39,719
Speaker 2: That's all I asked you.

660
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,359
Speaker 6: I mean, quick question, guys, quick question guy.

661
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:47,359
Speaker 7: Was Nico Harrison right about Luka Dontas? Was he right?

662
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,839
Speaker 2: He was fought early? Get rid of it. Yeah, I'm

663
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:55,319
Speaker 2: just saying, Hey, I'm just saying, let's talk. Let's talk

664
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:55,839
Speaker 2: about it.

665
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,840
Speaker 4: We got one more segment. Let's take a quick break.

666
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:00,880
Speaker 4: We'll come back on the other side of the break.

667
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,080
Speaker 4: Was the GM that is now the former GM of

668
00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 4: the the Dallas Mavericks. Was he right about Luca Dongons.

669
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:09,000
Speaker 4: We're gonna talk about that on the other side of break.

Speaker 4: It cuffs the legends Plexico Burds of LaVar Arrington. This

Speaker 4: Up on game, Plexico Burds cuts the legend, had a

Speaker 4: lot of great conversations. If you missed any of it,

676
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 4: don't worry about it, don't sweat it, don't fret it.

677
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:35,239
Speaker 4: Just go check it out on the podcast. It will

678
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:39,160
Speaker 4: go up immediately upon the conclusion of this show, before

679
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:42,080
Speaker 4: we get up out of here. You guys heard it.

680
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 4: Y'all wanted to continue the conversation. Had this conversation that

681
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:47,640
Speaker 4: y'all wanted to have.

682
00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 2: Have had it, Plexa that you and comes what we're thinking.

683
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:52,680
Speaker 5: I'm gonna say this right quick. I'm gonna just get

684
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:59,279
Speaker 5: a couple points off. Nico was absolutely right. And I've

685
00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 5: been watching the Acers play, you know, all season, and

686
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:02,760
Speaker 5: I tell.

687
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 4: You absolutely right about what like, make sure we're clear

688
00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:05,920
Speaker 4: on this.

689
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:06,920
Speaker 2: When the games are going on.

690
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:11,400
Speaker 5: You can't win with them because you cannot win with

691
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:14,600
Speaker 5: Luca because he's only concerned about one part of the

692
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:16,120
Speaker 5: basketball game, and that has scoring.

693
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 2: And I'm gonna take a.

694
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 5: Great word from our friend Kobe Bean Brian, so you

695
00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:23,640
Speaker 5: cannot win championships if you're ball dominant.

696
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:25,160
Speaker 2: And that's the.

697
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:28,760
Speaker 5: Only impact that he has on a basketball game is scoring.

698
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:34,920
Speaker 5: And he is the worst transitional defender at the guard

699
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:39,360
Speaker 5: position that I've seen play pro basketball, and you know

700
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:41,480
Speaker 5: that I'm right, he won't defend.

701
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:45,240
Speaker 2: He's ball dominant, and in what.

702
00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 5: Other impact does he have on a basketball game if

703
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:52,919
Speaker 5: he's not scoring. So everybody looked at Nico crazy when

704
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 5: they traded him. The Lakers thought that, you know, they

705
00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:57,480
Speaker 5: could bring them to prominence.

706
00:37:58,440 --> 00:37:59,800
Speaker 2: Kuffles call him low, called.

707
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:03,200
Speaker 5: Luca he was looking good and now he's back to

708
00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:08,800
Speaker 5: being the same player that forced him out in Dallas,

709
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:10,880
Speaker 5: and Nico Harris is looking like a genius.

710
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:14,759
Speaker 7: Hey, Luca, we apologize in advanced Man. It's actually your

711
00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 7: birthday today, you know, Lucas twenty seven.

712
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:17,880
Speaker 2: That's a birthday player.

713
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:21,240
Speaker 7: You know, a Flander session on your birthday. It's crazy, Luca,

714
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:26,799
Speaker 7: but we got to keep it fighting. Yeah, it's real black.

715
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:29,360
Speaker 7: Everything you said was exactly what I want to say.

716
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,360
Speaker 7: I've always said this, but Luca's game is what I

717
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:33,719
Speaker 7: call empty calories.

718
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:34,840
Speaker 2: He is going to.

719
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 7: Field up, Yeah, he's going to feel up the boss score.

720
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:39,440
Speaker 4: He going You know that's my saying. You do know

721
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 4: that's my saying. Cuse you know you do know you

722
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:42,839
Speaker 4: grab one of my sayings just now.

723
00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:43,799
Speaker 2: You do know that right.

724
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:44,360
Speaker 7: I didn't know.

725
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:46,760
Speaker 4: Man, that's all right, you know, because you know everybody

726
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:47,800
Speaker 4: be grabbing your stuff.

727
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:48,920
Speaker 2: You know what I mean, you just grabbed me.

728
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:52,840
Speaker 4: I'm just saying I call Anthony Davis an empty calorie.

729
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 4: But go ahead, God.

730
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:56,080
Speaker 7: But you would see the Boss score some nights and

731
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:58,719
Speaker 7: it's like forty two points, nine rebounds, twelve and six

732
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,359
Speaker 7: and you're like, man, Luca really cooking right, But when

733
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:05,600
Speaker 7: you watch the game, it doesn't translate to winning basketball

734
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 7: because as me being a coach, with that eye, he

735
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:11,160
Speaker 7: doesn't have any impact when the ball is out of

736
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 7: his hands. When the balls in his hands to step

737
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 7: back three, have to step back three. You know, he's

738
00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:19,960
Speaker 7: trying to foul bait, which I cannot stand. Jalen Brunson,

739
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:23,680
Speaker 7: the old Houston Rockets, James Harden, even SGA. Now I

740
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:25,960
Speaker 7: hate the foul bait and stuff. But that's another conversation.

741
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:29,920
Speaker 7: But Luca, you have to surround him with nothing but

742
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:33,879
Speaker 7: defensive wings, athletic wings and bigs who can protect the rim.

743
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:36,640
Speaker 7: And that's why I said Nico Harrison was right because

744
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:40,360
Speaker 7: he put together that masterpiece roster that Dallas went to

745
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 7: the finals with, and Kyrie Irvin didn't show up in

746
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 7: those finals, and people leave that out of the conversation.

747
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:49,239
Speaker 7: But if you put all the pieces around Luca, it

748
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:53,120
Speaker 7: can work, because Nico Harrison proved that. So I just

749
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:56,360
Speaker 7: think it's funny to see how everybody was calling Nico

750
00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,799
Speaker 7: Harrison all kinds of names in the media, all the

751
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:02,400
Speaker 7: bat about media were calling this guy all these names,

752
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:06,160
Speaker 7: and now it looks like he is absolutely correct about

753
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:10,040
Speaker 7: his whole evaluation of this asset.

754
00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:15,239
Speaker 4: Because I brought DeAndre aid En though, to protect the room,

755
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:18,120
Speaker 4: to play defense, to rebound, to be that long body

756
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:21,120
Speaker 4: that that handles the defensive side of the court.

757
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,520
Speaker 7: I'm so glad you brought his name up right quick,

758
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 7: LeVar Arrington, because DeAndre Aigen had the nerve and the

759
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:34,760
Speaker 7: audacity to say, I'm not Clint Compeller in the locker

760
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,640
Speaker 7: room of I'm not Clint Compeller.

761
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,320
Speaker 6: They're trying to turn me into Clint Compeller.

762
00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:43,239
Speaker 7: He was actually taking shots at Luca Donnas when he

763
00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:45,640
Speaker 7: said that. By the way, know what he was saying

764
00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,400
Speaker 7: is basically, Luca is trying to turn me into a

765
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:50,719
Speaker 7: vertical low threat, and I'm more of a you know,

766
00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:52,480
Speaker 7: give me the ball, give me my touches. Let me

767
00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:56,359
Speaker 7: face up. DeAndre Aiden is right in a capacity, but

768
00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:59,400
Speaker 7: you can't come out there the very next night against

769
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:03,200
Speaker 7: against your former team, Phoenix Suns that drafted you and

770
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 7: have two North American points.

771
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:07,800
Speaker 4: DeAndre all right, j'all, that's cups, that's plex.

772
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 2: I'm LeVar, that's up on game
