1
00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: What I eat in a day as a guy who

2
00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:09,760
Speaker 1: only eats beans. I began the morning with beans on

3
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 1: toast without the toast, and nothing hits the spot like

4
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:15,080
Speaker 1: a throat full of warm beans at eight am, and

5
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:18,520
Speaker 1: then did some important influencing research, because yes I'm an influencer,

6
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:20,639
Speaker 1: and yes I'm more important than you. I then wanted

7
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:22,400
Speaker 1: to share the love with some homies, so I brought

8
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,119
Speaker 1: them their favorite beans and we enjoyed those before heading

9
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 1: to second breakfast, where I of course gobbled on more

10
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 1: beans and had whatever the crap this is? Afterwards we

11
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,360
Speaker 1: got third breakfast at six pm. They wanted to go

12
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 1: to this lame market that didn't sell beans, so luckily

13
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 1: I always got that MF and thang on me. So

14
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:44,960
Speaker 1: we toasted to another day full of beans and enjoyed beverages.

15
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:50,320

Speaker 2: You take the train, I see the seats.

31
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 3: I intended to dress as a lowly slop farmer.

32
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,960
Speaker 2: Oh, okay, farmer, thought you were a railroad conductor.

33
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 3: I had a long travel day yesterday. So when I

34
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 3: woke up this morning and I saw the reminder, I

35
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 3: sat on my phone, wear overalls. I didn't have it

36
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,480
Speaker 3: in my brain to question it. That's like, all right,

37
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 3: but not overalls. Decision done.

38
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 2: So the flight was delayed last night, okay, pushed it

39
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 2: was delayed.

40
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 3: Yeah. I was on the last flight of the night.

41
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:11,239
Speaker 3: You know. I was having a great time seeing family. Uh.

42
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 3: Didn't want to leave until I got the text message

43
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 3: saying hour and a half delate. Uh. And then I

44
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,359
Speaker 3: just kept refreshing. Five minutes more, five minutes more, five

45
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 3: minutes more, five minutes more. Next thing, I know, it's

46
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 3: a four am walking back home.

47
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:27,959
Speaker 2: You said you got in so late that the plane

48
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 2: train at the Atlanta Airport was shut down. You should

49
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 2: have had the overalls on. You could have fired it back.

50
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, skeets was tough stuff. I had to tough it.

51
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 3: I don't know what four maybe five terminals who read people.

52
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 3: I was feeling bad. You're feeling like you know, So

53
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 3: I was like, people are tired, it's late at night.

54
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 3: They've had the same tough travel days that I've had,

55
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,519
Speaker 3: but I got longer legs, So give up a way.

56
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:00,680

70
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 2: new segment called the slop Scale. Yes, a chance for

71
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 2: us to weigh the latest NBA rumors. Hence this look.

72
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, look, I went to a place called BlackBerry Farm

73
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 3: this week, a magical place, and I'll just say, the

74
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 3: one animal they don't want your feed in skeets, it's

75
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 3: the pig. What you can feed the outpacas, You can

76
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 3: feed the tiny horses. You can of course feed the goats,

77
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 3: but do not feed that pig. Why getting fat offs?

78
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 2: Can you feed them? NBA rumors?

79
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was like I was holding my hand and saying,

80
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 3: friend of leets.

81
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 2: Okay before we get to the slop scale, and we

82
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 2: will explain that in a second. Following a meeting on

83
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 2: Monday between Damian Lillard and the Blazers Organization, Portland general

84
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 2: manager Joe Cronin issued a brief statement addressing the interaction. Quote,

85
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 2: we had a great dialogue. That's what the statement read.

86
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 2: We remain committed to building a winner around Dame. That

87
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 2: was basically it. And I know what you're thinking right now,

88
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 2: Oh my god, You're not gonna do this, are you?

89
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 2: You're not gonna talk Damian Lillard train rumors again. People

90
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 2: are tired of it, People are getting frustrated. People want

91
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 2: to move on. Not us. We're doubling down on the

92
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 2: Lillard train rumors. We're swerve in hardcore. But I do

93
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,839
Speaker 2: have some questions off of this, off of the entire situation,

94
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 2: with even a little bit in the Blazers. The first

95
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 2: one is, what are your thoughts on this very brief

96
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 2: statement here from Blazer's GM Joe Cronin.

97
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 3: My first reaction was a stephen A. Smith meme, let

98
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 3: me tell you something. We don't care? Are you kidding me?

99
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 3: You know whatever? This is once again the same statement

100
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 3: we have heard from both sides so many times. If

101
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,159
Speaker 3: it's Dame saying it, so I want to win in Portland,

102
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 3: if it's the trail Blazer's front office saying it, We're

103
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,280
Speaker 3: committed to building a winner around Dame. This is obviously

104
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:36,839
Speaker 3: Blazers sided. There isn't really any mention of Dame's opinion

105
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 3: on things here, So you know, I just felt like

106
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,160
Speaker 3: we need to have a little mother Damian Lillard talk

107
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 3: this week. So this is the latest bit, But I

108
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 3: don't know. It just feels like, I guess, watch me cook.

109
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 3: Joe Cronin is saying we're going into free agency. Here.

110
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 3: We know that Dame doesn't necessarily want a youth movement,

111
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 3: but the Blazers just drafted a potential franchise Cornerstone going

112
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 3: Forward Forward and Scoot Henderson, so perhaps the youth movement

113
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 3: is starting without Dame's consent either way. But at the

114
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 3: very least here it feels like Joe Cronin is going

115
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 3: to have a chance on the first couple of days

116
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 3: of pre agency to make some kind of splash, to

117
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 3: make some kind of trade, to change something up, to

118
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 3: give Dame Lillard some sort of encouragement going forward, because

119
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,679
Speaker 3: it does feel like Dame is very happy in Portland.

120
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 3: He doesn't really want to leave right like he would

121
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 3: love to win a championship there. He's basically going into

122
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 3: his Dirk Novisky season right now, the same age that

123
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 3: Dirk was when he won his title with the with

124
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 3: the Mavericks, which is exactly what Damian Lillard is trying

125
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 3: to pull. So yeah, he's given Joe one last chance.

126
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 3: Let's see what you can cook here Joe.

127
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 2: Right, And do you think that means like you have

128
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 2: two weeks to cook Joe Cronin, or you know, a

129
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 2: year or so, and we'll try and figure this out.

130
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 2: I know it's impossible, Like who knows, but what do

131
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 2: you think?

132
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 3: Well? I think wait and see. I don't know. It

133
00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,799
Speaker 3: feels like this is just going to be the case.

134
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 3: You're gonna get a weekly Damian Lillard update, Like what

135
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 3: can Joe Cronin poll on the first couple of days

136
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,040
Speaker 3: of pre agency. Maybe it's just bringing back Jeremy Grant

137
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 3: and maybe then things take a little bit of a break.

138
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 3: Can we wait and see where the big names are

139
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 3: signing if anybody is disappointed in striking out at free

140
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 3: agency and then therefore wants to make a trade. So

141
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 3: maybe it'll be by like the end of the moratorium period,

142
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 3: which I guess is a week away, But I don't know.

143
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 3: I feel like Willard is going to give the Blazers

144
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 3: a chance here to get the best package, and he's

145
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 3: gonna stay tight lipped about it even if he does

146
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 3: decide to want out. He wants the best for Portland.

147
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 3: So I think Joe's gonna have a chance to try

148
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 3: and make some moves. I don't know what exact moves

149
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 3: they're going to try and make though.

150
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 2: Right Cronin has said his intention is to build a

151
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 2: winner around Damian Lillard, but really, with the exception of

152
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 2: trading for Jeremy Grant last summer, a lot of his

153
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:58,239
Speaker 2: moves are more of the stockpiling young assets, which doesn't

154
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 2: seem to sync up with the idea of like building

155
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 2: a winner right now around Dame. I have heard I

156
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 2: believe it was low and Beck yesterday talking about the

157
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 2: possibility of all of these statements and these comments, the

158
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 2: two camps trying to work together, Damian Lillard and his

159
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 2: team obviously the Blazers to put up a good front here,

160
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 2: put on a good face, and maybe behind the scenes

161
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 2: still trying to wheel and deal either for other players

162
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 2: to add to Damian Lillard or the idea of moving

163
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 2: Damiel Lillard. But we don't want to come out and say, well,

164
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 2: we're moving them, because then your leverage goes down a

165
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 2: little bit. If it suddenly is like Damian Lillard just said,

166
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 2: I'm out of here. I only want to go to

167
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 2: two or three teams and get at it, which could happen,

168
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:44,080
Speaker 2: but that does hurt the Blazer's leverage in that potential play.

169
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 2: So maybe almost Dame is like helping them out if

170
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 2: that is going on behind the scenes, which is a.

171
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 3: Possibility, absolutely true. I think a trade request becoming public

172
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 3: would be bad news for both Lillard and for the Blazers,

173
00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,199
Speaker 3: because you're right, it hurts their leverage. If everybody knows

174
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 3: that Damian Lillie is officially on the market, the offers

175
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 3: are just going to go down a little bit. And

176
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 3: from Willard's perspective, people call him the greatest Blazer of

177
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 3: all time, and you know it's debatable between him, Clyde

178
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 3: drexlerd Bill Walton basically are the top three names. Those

179
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 3: two guys left, and they left under not the greatest circumstances,

180
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 3: certainly Walton. So that's something that Lillard has in his

181
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 3: back pocket when you're talking about all time legacy in Portland,

182
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 3: the guy who stayed, the guy who tried to make

183
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 3: it happen there. So it behooves him to keep a

184
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,560
Speaker 3: trade request quiet as well. And it's great for the

185
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,959
Speaker 3: Blazers if it's still assumed that Lillard is going to

186
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,960
Speaker 3: be in training camp come September and October.

187
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, they both left, and they both won championships when

188
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 2: they left. I know Bill Walton had one with Portland,

189
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 2: but he also won another one with the Celtics and

190
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 2: that super team and obviously with the Rockets. Yeh, that's true.

191
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 2: That's true.

192
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 3: Okay.

193
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 2: Well, the next question then, and the one that really

194
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 2: anybody cares about, is what direction should the Blazers go?

195
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 2: All right, because they have I guess three options. Trade Dame,

196
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 2: start the rebuild around Scoot Henderson your number three pick,

197
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 2: and probably trade and Sharp, who obviously looks like a

198
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 2: promising young prospect. Or you trade your young talent for

199
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 2: I guess like a proven VET or two a proven star,

200
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 2: even to pair up with Dame and really go for

201
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 2: a championship in the next let's say two or three years,

202
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 2: or this mysterious third option that people keep saying this

203
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 2: thread the needle, which I don't even really understand what

204
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 2: that means.

205
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 3: Uh.

206
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,679
Speaker 2: I guess it just means keep Scoot and Sharp, keep Dame,

207
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 2: and try and get somebody in. But obviously with that problem,

208
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,200
Speaker 2: there is how you're getting a star without moving maybe

209
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 2: a Scooter or a Sharp. I mean, I guess Simon's

210
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 2: and nrk is gonna get you something in return, But

211
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 2: is it all that sexy you get?

212
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 3: I mean Simon's and nirk with their combination of Simon's

213
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 3: being pretty young and ascendant talent and Nurkic having a

214
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,080
Speaker 3: big contract that allows them to together a pretty good number,

215
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,200
Speaker 3: you can at least bring in a player. But to me,

216
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 3: the third path, the thread, the needle path, is basically

217
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 3: just a wow, Scoot is a star right away? Yes,

218
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 3: that's really what it is. That's how you're bringing in

219
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 3: a star without sending anything out. It's like, what if

220
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 3: Scoot Henderson ends up being you know, Oklahoma City Thunder

221
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:23,439
Speaker 3: early years Russell Westbrook right away? If that's true, Okay,

222
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,719
Speaker 3: Like I mean, if he's if he could win the

223
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 3: Rookie of the Year this season, then that's definitely the

224
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,079
Speaker 3: path they're hoping for. Because right now, I feel like

225
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 3: anytime a team is on the line with the Blazers

226
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 3: and they're talking about helping out Portland, helping out building

227
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 3: a winner around Dame, they're asking for Scoot every single time.

228
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 3: And you're not gonna get a great player right now

229
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,680
Speaker 3: now that the Blazers have Scoot, because if they say no,

230
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 3: which they'll probably say no, that's gonna end a lot

231
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:52,960
Speaker 3: of discussions. I really do think if they're not really

232
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 3: include Scoot, which they shouldn't, But I don't know. We

233
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 3: saw the way things went with Beale at the end

234
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,719
Speaker 3: of his tenure in Washington. We see where things are

235
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 3: going with the Chicago Bulls right now, where they're really

236
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 3: stuck in the middle. Here, Clearly the way to go

237
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 3: if you're looking just basketball, if you're looking contracts, if

238
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 3: you're looking ages, is trading Damian Lillard and starting the

239
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,760
Speaker 3: reboot around Scoot with Sharp and Simon's there as well,

240
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 3: plus whatever you're getting back from Dame. That is the

241
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 3: smart basketball building way of doing it. Yeah, that completely

242
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 3: ignores the people that are involved here. Damian Lillard a

243
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,199
Speaker 3: legend amongst Portland. Joe Cronin doesn't want to be the

244
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:33,679
Speaker 3: guy I'm sure to send to end the Damian Lillard era.

245
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 3: So that's an easy decision to make when you're not

246
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 3: the one who's going to have to deal with people.

247
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 3: Call in the next day, say it, I don't want

248
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,440
Speaker 3: my tickets. You know I'm canceling my season tickets. You

249
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 3: just traded Damian Lillard for draft picks. That's a tough

250
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 3: spot to be in. But you know, the smart thing

251
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 3: obviously is starting the reboot. They were gifted a reboot

252
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 3: when they jumped up to number three in the draft.

253
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good point, that is. It sounds funny,

254
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 2: but that's the easiest path too, because exactly, you know,

255
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 2: you have already your number three pick again young talent,

256
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 2: and then you just sort of start from scratch and

257
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 2: see what you can put together. Whereas the other ones

258
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:10,200
Speaker 2: this idea of either trading these young assets for proven

259
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,440
Speaker 2: stars and guys that can help you in right now,

260
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 2: or the thread the needle, which is some variation of

261
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,079
Speaker 2: that is, what are they supposed to do here? Like

262
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,079
Speaker 2: who are they possibly trading for? If you are running

263
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 2: with the idea of like building around deem right now,

264
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,200
Speaker 2: like who is it Karl Anthony Towns? Does that move

265
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 2: the needle? Jalen Brown? I maybe, but it sounds like

266
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 2: he's not going anywhere. Paul George, Like is that enough?

267
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 3: You know?

268
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,320
Speaker 2: Is Simon's and Nurk and a draft pick for Paul

269
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 2: George suddenly skyrocketing the Blazers up the standings. They're better,

270
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 2: don't get me wrong.

271
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 3: They're better and I think that trading for Paul George,

272
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 3: especially just coming off Simon's and Nerk, I think that

273
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 3: would satisfy the just wants a shot clause, right Like,

274
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 3: I don't think that rockets the Trailblazers to the top

275
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 3: of the Western Conference, but it definitely makes them more competitive,

276
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,080
Speaker 3: especially if you're you know, pie in the sky. Both

277
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 3: Lillard and Paul George are healthy come playoff time. But yeah,

278
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 3: when we were talking about all these trade packages before

279
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 3: the draft even came around, it was like, maybe the

280
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 3: highest profile player linked to the Blazers was Pascal Siakam,

281
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 3: who's a really really good player on the fringes of

282
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 3: all NBA consideration for the past couple of seasons and

283
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 3: All Star guy in his prime. But even then Lillard

284
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:27,280
Speaker 3: and Pascal and bringing back Jeremy Grant, perhaps I don't

285
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 3: think that's really a contender. Maybe that's a satisfying we

286
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 3: at least have a shot. They're definitely improved and more

287
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 3: veteran team. But I don't know that there's anybody that

288
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 3: the Blazers can get right now that's pushing them over

289
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,040
Speaker 3: the top in the Western Conference. They didn't even make

290
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 3: the play in tournament they haven't been good with Damian

291
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 3: Lillard on the court the past two seasons.

292
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, you're right. I mean, like as it currently stands,

293
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 2: they have way too many guards on this roster. They

294
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 2: don't have a lot of big guys. I think Nurkic

295
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 2: is their only real big guy and they don't really

296
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 2: love him anymore. They can't stop anyone. This has been

297
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 2: the recurring theme with the They have the worst defense,

298
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 2: one of the worst defenses in the past four seasons.

299
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 2: Twenty seventh they ranked in defensive rating this season. That

300
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 2: was good compared to the last other years thirtieth the

301
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 2: year before, twenty ninth the year before that, and twenty

302
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 2: eighth the year before that. So they've been brutal near

303
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 2: the bottom when it comes to stopping anyone, and they

304
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 2: are strapped for satellity cap space like heading into free

305
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 2: agency here, which is why you have to I mean,

306
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 2: it feels like you have to move assignments anerk or

307
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 2: they don't seem like they want to do this. Go

308
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 2: crazy in trading like your scoot and you're sharp, like

309
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 2: your your legitimate young assets for a quick fix, a

310
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 2: short term solution, and that is such a risky proposition.

311
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 2: I mean, the only one I can think of where

312
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 2: it ever really worked. It's like, remember when Lebron went

313
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 2: back to Cleveland and it was like, obviously coming down

314
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 2: from him a little bit, Hey, yeah, I'm coming back,

315
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 2: I'm signing there. They had the number one pick and

316
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 2: Andrew Wiggins, he never even played a second for them.

317
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 2: They ship that out along with Anthony Bennett, the former

318
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 2: number one pick, along with another future first I think

319
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 2: it was for Kevin Love, and it was like, okay,

320
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 2: yeah they did that. But that's Lebron James. This is

321
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 2: the other part of this whole thing. This is Damian Lillard.

322
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 2: He's really good. He's a top seventy five player, but

323
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 2: at this point of his career, even though he just

324
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 2: had a lights out year, is Dame. I guess he's

325
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 2: top ten? Is he a lock? I don't know.

326
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 3: He's definitely not an.

327
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 2: There are, yeah, one of the goats, so that's different.

328
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 3: That's the thing with this is when you are looking

329
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,760
Speaker 3: at what the best possible team that could be with

330
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 3: Damian Lillard on it next season wherever he ends up

331
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 3: or if it is in Portland, the best team is

332
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 3: Damian Lillard in Miami, where he is on the same

333
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 3: level as Jimmy Butler with regards to who's the number one.

334
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 3: Jimmy is probably the number one guy since he's the

335
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 3: culture center uh in Miami. But if it's Lillard as

336
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 3: the number one in Portland with the names that we're

337
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 3: talking about them bringing in, that team's not as good

338
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 3: as well a heat team would be. So like you're saying,

339
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 3: when it's Lebron in his prime, make in the call

340
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 3: the guy can't stop going to NBA finals, You make

341
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 3: a move for the win now guy, because you're ready

342
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 3: to win right now. The Blazers are trying to win

343
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 3: right right now, and they can't win right now. They

344
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,520
Speaker 3: just can't. Like it's not like they really are close here.

345
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:14,880
Speaker 3: So that's the problem.

346
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,720
Speaker 2: The Blazers were like sort of in a similar position

347
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:23,440
Speaker 2: back in twenty twelve when they have Aldridge and they

348
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 2: have a high draft pick, number six. I believe it was,

349
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 2: you know, you're deciding, Okay, Aldridge in his prime, do

350
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 2: we bring in more veteran talent around him? No, they

351
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 2: select from from Weab State Damian Lillard number six, and

352
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 2: those two co existed for a couple of years before

353
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 2: aldridg left for San Antonio. They won thirty three games

354
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:44,639
Speaker 2: in their first year together. I mean he's a rookie

355
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,480
Speaker 2: point guard. I mean he's good. He was Rookie of

356
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 2: the Year, was he not? But you know, there's some

357
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 2: growing pains. But then they won fifty plus games the

358
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:54,160
Speaker 2: next two seasons and they made it to the second

359
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 2: round one so they won one playoff series again, Like

360
00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,119
Speaker 2: that's fine, that's growing. And then Aldridge leaves for the

361
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 2: San Antonio Spurs like they're sort of at this. I

362
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,239
Speaker 2: mean this was different because Aldris was much younger. I mean,

363
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,359
Speaker 2: Damien is older, but he's a much better player than

364
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 2: olderge ever was at his peak. But it's another here

365
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 2: we go, what do you do? What path?

366
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 3: Exactly? And I guess back then they just decided we're

367
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 3: taking the good guy and we're sticking with the good guy. Yeah,

368
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:24,119
Speaker 3: so it was tough when Aldridge left. But obviously Lillard

369
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 3: has become a franchise cornerstone. But they've got a The

370
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:29,679
Speaker 3: only way they should trade Scoot is if it's for

371
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:33,160
Speaker 3: somebody who has a potential to like finish a first

372
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:36,879
Speaker 3: team All NBA this season alongside Lillard. Paul George is

373
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 3: almost that guy. Just because when he's at his best,

374
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,240
Speaker 3: when he's healthy, he can have great, great seasons. I

375
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 3: don't know if that's completely past him at this point

376
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 3: as he gets a little bit older, but it could

377
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 3: be looked at as a massive mistake if they include

378
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 3: Scoot in any of these trades going forward. But I

379
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:53,919
Speaker 3: don't think they're gonna do that.

380
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, because and that's where, like you said this earlier,

381
00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 2: it's like, Okay, you call the Clippers, you say, Okay,

382
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 2: there's some rumors that you maybe don't want to be

383
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,159
Speaker 2: the person to give Paul Georgia a huge extension here.

384
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,639
Speaker 2: He obviously got the quiet decision too. Maybe he's on

385
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,640
Speaker 2: the trade block, maybe he could be moved, Okay, Simon's

386
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 2: Nurkic two future first round picks, and then Clippers go, no,

387
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,440
Speaker 2: we want Scoot right, and maybe they even back down

388
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 2: off a Scoot And maybe it's sharp and I don't

389
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 2: think even the Blazers want to give up on that.

390
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:24,399
Speaker 2: But to me, that trade if you really, if the

391
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:26,639
Speaker 2: whole plan is here to give yourself a chance like

392
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,440
Speaker 2: you said, to be you know, a top five team,

393
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 2: let's say in the West. Who knows what happens when

394
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 2: you got Dame and Paul George and Jeremy Grant as

395
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:37,720
Speaker 2: your three guys in a playoff series. That's that is

396
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,679
Speaker 2: a move that I could see happening. I have no

397
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,880
Speaker 2: way including Scoot in that, not a chance. Simon's nurk.

398
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:48,879
Speaker 2: Maybe a future first or two sure, sure, But even then,

399
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 2: even then, I think you're just like, I don't know

400
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 2: what percentage you're even giving yourself to even like go

401
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 2: all the way with that team. But I guess it's

402
00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 2: better unless Scoot's awesome. But we're putting a lot of

403
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 2: pressure on Scooter Ederson here too? Is this other part

404
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:02,440
Speaker 2: of that.

405
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:04,639
Speaker 3: That's the thing. Even like the best rookies who have

406
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 3: incredible performances, great stats, they're not generally positive players their

407
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 3: rookie year. I think I forget one of these basketball

408
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,359
Speaker 3: stats twitters I was following with saying, it's like under

409
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 3: three percent of rookies their rookie year are positive players

410
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 3: from a box score standpoint. So it is tough. It's

411
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,359
Speaker 3: also tough that Lillard is on a big contract. He

412
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 3: goes through twenty twenty seven. He'll be making sixty three

413
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 3: million dollars that year. If he picks up his option

414
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,880
Speaker 3: we're seeing right now. Teams are very hesitant to take

415
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 3: on really long money. Lillard's going to be thirty three

416
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:37,399
Speaker 3: at the start of the season. You got to be

417
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 3: convinced that you're choosing the right guy to be paying

418
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 3: him sixty three million dollars at thirty seven years old,

419
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 3: and you've got to kick in all of these players

420
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 3: and picks to get Lillard back. I think it's going

421
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 3: to be tough for the Blazers to find what they're

422
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 3: looking for out there, all right.

423
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 2: Final question then, is if he ultimately decides okay, move me,

424
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 2: or maybe even the Blazers say all right, okay, you're

425
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 2: playing a nice guy here. We're done with this. We

426
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:07,119
Speaker 2: got to pick a real direction. We are going to

427
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 2: try and trade you. What is or what team has

428
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 2: the best Damian Lillard trade package in your opinion, because

429
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:14,399
Speaker 2: there's a lot of talk how there's like only a

430
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,040
Speaker 2: handful of teams that really make any sense. Who do

431
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:17,919
Speaker 2: you think has the best.

432
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:24,160
Speaker 3: Deal the best player that's generally linked in these Lillard packages?

433
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:27,719
Speaker 3: I feel like, is Tyler hero from under a contract,

434
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:31,400
Speaker 3: still young and promising perspective. I guess he would fit

435
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,399
Speaker 3: nice next to scoop being able to play catch and

436
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:38,359
Speaker 3: shoot and also handle some creation stuff. The best risk

437
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 3: from a pick standpoint is definitely the Brooklyn Nets, because

438
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:46,360
Speaker 3: they have some far future Suns first rounders which could

439
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,320
Speaker 3: end up looking okay in a couple of seasons. They

440
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:51,120
Speaker 3: got a Dallas Mavericks first a few years down the line,

441
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 3: which could also look nice in a couple of seasons,

442
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,159
Speaker 3: but you're not probably getting a player back on the

443
00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:01,639
Speaker 3: level of Tyler here, I don't think from the Brooklyn Nets.

444
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 3: So I guess Hero is the better trade package, though

445
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 3: Miami picks aren't ever really going to be good like

446
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,440
Speaker 3: the best. You're probably looking at us somewhere in the teens. So, uh,

447
00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 3: that's a tough one. You mentioned Karl Anthony Towns oh earlier.

448
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 2: You're sure of it.

449
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 3: That actually interests me, Scoot and Karl Anthony Towns. You're

450
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 3: also kicking in picks if you're if you're the timber Wolves.

451
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,920
Speaker 3: And I don't necessarily know that Lillard would want to

452
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 3: go to Minnesota, and Portland is gonna work with Lillard

453
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,119
Speaker 3: to figure out where he wants to go. But a

454
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:36,400
Speaker 3: shooting big man probably looks nice to Scoot Henderson long term,

455
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,200
Speaker 3: and then you know, Towns helps build him up, and

456
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 3: then by the time Scoot is at his full powers,

457
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,360
Speaker 3: Towns deal is probably coming off the books at that point.

458
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 2: Right, I don't know. It's the weird part is Damiel

459
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,479
Speaker 2: Lillard on the Wolves is the strange part of that

460
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 2: whole thing. I mean, you're really ultimately like, sorry, buddy,

461
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,199
Speaker 2: we don't care anymore. We're just trying to get the

462
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 2: best deal.

463
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 3: For us, yes, right, which you know is kind of

464
00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:00,479
Speaker 3: a GM's job to have to make those hard but

465
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 3: that's a very hard call to make.

466
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, the ones you see the most are obviously Miami

467
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,919
Speaker 2: getting Damian Lillard four something like Tyler Hero Let's say,

468
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:16,360
Speaker 2: Duncan Robinson in that contract, Jovich him a Jim jaquzz Hawkez.

469
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,359
Speaker 2: I'm gonna still struggle with that one. The number eighteen

470
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 2: pick in the twenty twenty three draft and then a

471
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 2: first round pick in twenty eight a twenty nine pick swap,

472
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,480
Speaker 2: and a two thousand and thirty first round pick. There's

473
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:29,240
Speaker 2: that one, and then there's the Nets going. Let's say,

474
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,959
Speaker 2: because Lo says Claxton off the table, there's no way

475
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 2: they're trading bridges obviously you want Lillard there to pair

476
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 2: with them. It would be something like Spencer, Dinwiddie, Royce, O'Neil,

477
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:40,639
Speaker 2: Joe Harris, and then a bunch of those Sons picks

478
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:44,399
Speaker 2: twenty five, twenty seven, twenty nine, that last one being

479
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:50,640
Speaker 2: top three protected. Yeah, they're not great. They're not great,

480
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,880
Speaker 2: but I guess if it's if your hands are tied

481
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 2: at that point, he's like, okay, trade me you just

482
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 2: I don't know. Those are not great, are not grab

483
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,120
Speaker 2: game pick. I don't even which one I like more

484
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:09,840
Speaker 2: between those two, maybe the Nets. I think the Nets

485
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 2: I like more. If I'm Portland and I'm trading Damian Lillard, Yeah, yeah,

486
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:15,440
Speaker 2: I get I don't know.

487
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 3: I would take Hero the Hero package definitely over the Nets.

488
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:20,879
Speaker 3: I think I'm higher on Hero than you are, just

489
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 3: in general. He also didn't play in the playoffs after

490
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:25,959
Speaker 3: hurting his hand, so I guess there's those kind of questions.

491
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 3: But Hero unleashed would be much like Jordan Poole unleashed

492
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 3: to me, perhaps you could see thirty a game on

493
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:36,399
Speaker 3: twenty five shots per game, something along those lines. But

494
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 3: I guess you know you're the nice thing about the

495
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 3: Nets trade package is you're getting a few extra years

496
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:45,440
Speaker 3: of job security with that one. I think, yeahause you're

497
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 3: getting picks in and you're also looking at whatever return

498
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,360
Speaker 3: they get, be it at Dinwitty, Dorian Finney Smith probably

499
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:54,879
Speaker 3: then moving that player as well to try and get

500
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 3: even additional draft compensation.

501
00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:58,639
Speaker 2: All right, we'll call it there. You know, we'll have

502
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:02,120
Speaker 2: a lot more on Damian Lillard uh with whatever next

503
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 2: news drops whatever a song was playing in the background

504
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:09,439
Speaker 2: when he goes live on Instagram. Any comments on that, I.

505
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 3: Mean, I assume that was just good DJing, Like, yeah, totally,

506
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:17,360
Speaker 3: you know, you know, I love Will Smith's Miami true.

507
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:21,680
Speaker 2: Absolutely, Whitney Houston came on after yep, But I don't know.

508
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:23,639
Speaker 3: I agree with I listened to the podcast. They should

509
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,639
Speaker 3: drop a playlist of the best Miami come to Miami songs.

510
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 2: Yeah as well, So maybe that'll be the deciding fact.

511
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,240
Speaker 2: The nets put together a playlist, you know a lot

512
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:38,400
Speaker 2: of biggie small stuff like that, and you put together

513
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:40,400
Speaker 2: a playlist, and then that's how we decide. He does

514
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 2: like music, Dame.

515
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 3: Does like music. He is a rapper. And look, I

516
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:48,159
Speaker 3: think for nine months a year, you're taking the Brooklyn

517
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 3: playlist over the Miami Playlist. But it's summertime dunks dot Com.

518
00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 2: All right, we'll take a quick break. Why don't we

519
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 2: come back a brand new segment called the slop Scale.

520
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:04,639
Speaker 2: Don't go anywhere, all right, still here in the classic

521

Speaker 2: factory hit that like button. Make sure you subscribe if

522
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,680
Speaker 2: you're joining us live on YouTube. NBA slop season is

523
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 2: in full effect. All of us little piggies can't get enough,

524
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 2: so to tackle the latest batch of NBA rumors, We've

525
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 2: come up with a brand new segment here on No

526
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:28,399
Speaker 2: Dunk's called the slop Scale. The Slopscale a lot of

527
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 2: intro from JD. Much love by the way to the

528
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 2: Unball podcast for really bringing slop into the NBA lexicon.

529
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:38,679
Speaker 2: I love it for NBA rumors.

530
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 3: That's a sloppy time of year. I think they are

531
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 3: doing like nightly slop streams.

532
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 2: I jumped on last night's playback, watched the Slopfest number

533
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 2: five there from the guys. So yeah, go check out

534
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 2: the you Know Ball podcast. So here's how this's gonna work, Trey,

535
00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 2: We're gonna weigh in on the latest NBA roomors here

536
00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 2: on the slop Scale. The heavier and juice here and

537
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 2: sloppier the NBA rumor, the more buckets of slop you

538
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 2: can assign to it, okay, five buckets of slop, that's

539
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 2: the best. The less interested you are in said NBA rumor,

540
00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 2: the fewer buckets you will assign down to one. Okay,

541
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:16,880
Speaker 2: it's a scale from one to five.

542
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,280
Speaker 3: Just a little slop clarification here, you're saying, I'm judging

543
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,119
Speaker 3: it based on the juiciness of the rumor, not how

544
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 3: much I like the move that would be made.

545
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:30,200
Speaker 2: Honestly, this is a sloppy segment for a sloppy season.

546
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:32,640
Speaker 2: Go with whatever direction you want.

547
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:36,040
Speaker 3: I think that's just as long as there's juice somewhere.

548
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,639
Speaker 3: We're talking slop here. It's like the grossest stuff you

549
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:40,160
Speaker 3: can find.

550
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,399
Speaker 2: Throw it in and be very wet, chucking in a

551
00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:45,159
Speaker 2: bucket and give it to the pigs. Get in a bucket,

552
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,960
Speaker 2: that's right. So the slap scale first one here a

553
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 2: lot in this slot. By the way, coming from Jake Fisher,

554
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 2: that guy enjoys a sloppy season.

555
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:53,720
Speaker 3: He is slopping it.

556
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:57,040
Speaker 2: Holy crap. So Jake Fisher of yeah who sports first one?

557
00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:01,200
Speaker 2: Kyle Kuzma to the Kings has momentum. Yeah, potential target

558
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:04,919
Speaker 2: there for Sacramento. Even with a new deal for Sabonis,

559
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,800
Speaker 2: plus the King's expectation to bring back Trey Lyle, Sacramento

560
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:10,760
Speaker 2: could have more than twenty five million dollars to play

561
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,400
Speaker 2: with in cap room. Kuzma to the Kings building momentum.

562
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 2: How many buckets a slop does a farmer Trey Kirby

563
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 2: give it?

564
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 3: I think I'm going four buckets a slop here. Okay,

565
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 3: this is a nice sloppy one here. You know, Kuzma

566
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,120
Speaker 3: is kind of a guy that makes sense for the Kings.

567
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:28,800
Speaker 3: I know you guys were talking about it on the

568
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 3: show Power Forward, Slash whatever you want to call the

569
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:37,719
Speaker 3: Harrison Barnes position there between him and Murray is an

570
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 3: area that the Kings could definitely improve. Kuzma is one

571
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 3: of the premier free agents that's available right now. But

572
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,240
Speaker 3: I also think it's interesting when you're reading through this

573
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 3: slop report from Jake Fisher. Here he mentions that Kuzma

574
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,720
Speaker 3: is going to be looking for north of thirty million

575
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 3: dollars annually, and then here he's saying Sacramento could have

576
00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 3: more than twenty five million. So maybe there's a little

577
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:00,720
Speaker 3: bit of a space, a little bit of a gap

578
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 3: there where another team just decides to come over the

579
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:07,040
Speaker 3: top for Kuzma. But it feels like the Kings is

580
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 3: the spot right now. I guess he's to me, he's

581
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:14,040
Speaker 3: a little bit more of a dynamic improvement over Harrison Barnes,

582
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,600
Speaker 3: a very similar kind of player, but you're getting higher

583
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:18,800
Speaker 3: highs perhaps with Kuzma.

584
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 2: Right it does feel like Harrison Barnes is leaving, you know,

585
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 2: whether he ends up in Indiana or some other team,

586
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,080
Speaker 2: but they're gonna need to fill that slot. Yeah, is

587
00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 2: it Kuzma?

588
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:28,600
Speaker 5: Is it?

589
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:29,680
Speaker 2: Grant Williams?

590
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 5: Is it?

591
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:33,480
Speaker 2: Who else am I forgetting in the power forward position?

592
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 2: Start running out of names and they all blend together.

593
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,960
Speaker 2: Is there remove for Tobias Harris crying out loud? Probably

594
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 2: not so okay, So you don't mind it, You know,

595
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:44,200
Speaker 2: you could see depending on the money value here for

596
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 2: Kus you think there's a role to be played there

597
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 2: in Sacramento.

598
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like it, And I like the Kings making

599
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 3: moves at the draft basically to open up a little

600
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 3: bit of space here and make a play for a player.

601
00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 3: I know zachlab has been talking about how it's possible

602
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 3: that what the Kings are doing is just doing this

603
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 3: extension for a SA bonus to pay him a little

604
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 3: bit more because they've got the cap room. There's obviously

605
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 3: the Draymond Green question as well, but to me, Kuzma

606
00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 3: kind of makes the most sense from it. He's trying

607
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 3: to get a nice contract. The Kings have a need

608
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:18,920
Speaker 3: here and they've got the space to fit him in.

609
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 3: All right.

610
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 2: Next one here, Jake Fisher says, San Antonio was known

611
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 2: to be waiting with a short term contract for nas

612
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 2: Reed and the hope of pairing him with Webbon Yama

613
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 2: in the front court. But now I's Reid staying with

614
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 2: the Minnesota Timberls. Now the Spurs will have to turn

615
00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 2: to other targets, perhaps someone like Pelican center Yonas Valanchunis.

616
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,960
Speaker 2: He's been made available in search of a more mobile

617
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,680
Speaker 2: rim protecting big man there in New Orleans, so the

618
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 2: Pelicans have put Valentunis on the trade block. How many

619
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:49,520
Speaker 2: buckets a slop?

620
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 3: I think this is just a two bucket slop job here. Yeah,

621
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 3: And maybe even maybe we're overrating it here because we're

622
00:30:57,720 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 3: Yona's fans and he's a fun guy to watch. You

623
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 3: plays a sloppy style game. It looks like he's just

624
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 3: carrying a whole bunch of buckets in throw elbows around,

625
00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:13,200
Speaker 3: sloshing it around inside. But you know, Jonas Valentiunas, surprising

626
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 3: to me, this guy's almost thirty two years old, or

627
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 3: he just turned thirty one. I'm sorry math wise here

628
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 3: that doesn't make sense, but yeah, just turn thirty one

629
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 3: years old, a little bit older than you would expect.

630
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 3: He's getting further on into his career. And Valanciunas is

631
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 3: a good player, but he's a player you have to

632
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 3: keep very involved offensively. He needs to touch the ball

633
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 3: to be effective with his post game. Great on the

634
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 3: offensive glass, but there's not a lot of possessions to

635
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 3: go around in New Orleans right now. Zion will be

636
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,960
Speaker 3: coming back at some point. It seems like they're keeping

637
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 3: the team together, so Brandon Ingram will handle a lot

638
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:48,200
Speaker 3: of handle the ball quite a bit, as we'll see

639
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 3: J McCollum. There's just not a lot of shots to

640
00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 3: be had for Yonas, and he's a guy that definitely

641
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 3: thrives when he's getting the ball more often. You can

642
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:56,920
Speaker 3: see why they would want rather whether it be a

643
00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 3: rim running center who's just catching lobs or like a

644
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,800
Speaker 3: pick and pop threat. If Zion is living in the

645
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 3: lay and that sort of thing, Valentiunis just doesn't necessarily

646
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 3: make sense with the Pelicans team that really wants outside shooting.

647
00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 2: What do you think about the link to the Spurs

648
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:15,280
Speaker 2: and the idea of putting a big dude like Valentionis

649
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:19,280
Speaker 2: beside web of the rook to sort of like slow play,

650
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 2: you know, his growth in the league and maybe not

651
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 2: have to match up with your giant centers. Be more

652
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:27,120
Speaker 2: of like a crazy long four type of guy.

653
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, you kind of turn him into like Serge Ibaka

654
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:32,960
Speaker 3: on the Oklahoma City Thunder, and Valentiunis would be like

655
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 3: Kendrick Perkins taking the bumps. Yeah, and then Abaca kind

656
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:38,400
Speaker 3: of comes over the top. I see that making sense.

657
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 3: Plan center is a very physically taxing position, and we've

658
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:48,600
Speaker 3: seen numerous great athletes, very strong guys Jannis Anthony Davis.

659
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 3: They don't want to play center for an entire season.

660
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 3: Vick's coming in as a very skinny guy, despite the

661
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:55,480
Speaker 3: fact that he's been playing overseas. He's still going to

662
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 3: be skinny. He's still going to be on the lighter

663
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 3: side compared to some NBA centers, So I think saving

664
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:04,360
Speaker 3: him the early seasons worth of bumps kind of makes sense.

665
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:08,360
Speaker 3: I like the nas read fit better next to wem Banyama. Yeah,

666
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:11,520
Speaker 3: but you know there, it might be okay for wem

667
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 3: Banyama to learn from valentiunists, learn the physicality in practice,

668
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,760
Speaker 3: learn the dirty tricks that he's going to teach you. Inside,

669
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:20,600
Speaker 3: I can see that making sense. And then you know

670
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 3: when Banyama's future is at the five and when he's ready,

671
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 3: Valentinus is probably off the books.

672
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,440
Speaker 2: Next one here, Chris Middleton declined his forty million dollars

673
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:32,240
Speaker 2: option with the Milwaukee Bucks last week, makes him an

674
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 2: unrestricted free agent. We went over a bunch of the

675
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 2: free agents on yesterday show did a little NBA free

676
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 2: agency primer, but Fisher writes that all signs are pointing

677
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 2: to Middleton and the Bucks quickly agreeing to a new contract.

678
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 2: The Rockets and Kings were two teams linked to Middleton

679
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 2: as free agent suitors, but it sounds like he's going

680
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:52,040
Speaker 2: to agree with the deal a longer term deal there

681
00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 2: with Milwaukee. How many buckets are slopped? Does this one garner?

682
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 3: This is a single bucket, maybe not even a half

683
00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,080
Speaker 3: full bucket. Wow. You know, well, as soon as the

684
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:04,600
Speaker 3: Bradley Beal deal happened with Phoenix, it was kind of

685
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 3: a done deal to me that Middleton was going to

686
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:08,680
Speaker 3: be coming back to the Bucks. I guess you could

687
00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 3: maybe if you were looking after him, the outside argue

688
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 3: that Beal would have been an upgrade over Middleton. But

689
00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:17,920
Speaker 3: Chris Middleton was there at the Adrian Griffin press conference.

690
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 3: It seemed like they had a wink wink thing going

691
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 3: on where if he declined his forty million dollar option,

692
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,919
Speaker 3: they would give him a lower number but for longer years,

693
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 3: which seems like that is what's going to happen here.

694
00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,439
Speaker 3: So to be expected and a smart move from the Bucks.

695
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 3: Middleton made his name in Milwaukee, obviously won a championship there,

696
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:38,920
Speaker 3: and it feels like Milwaukee values continuity. And I'm sure

697
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:42,560
Speaker 3: Jannisana Tacumpo likes Chris Middleton coming back as well. So

698
00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:47,480
Speaker 3: not unexpected at all. Expected, Yes, not unexpected.

699
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,280
Speaker 2: You're saying there's not even enough slop in that bucket

700
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 2: to take it to the trough.

701
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,239
Speaker 3: Oh, I mean that's the beauty of slop, right, You

702
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,080
Speaker 3: just throw it on top and it's all beautiful.

703
00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:58,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I got to make the trip from I

704
00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:02,040
Speaker 2: don't know, the kitchen to the trough out in the barn. Yeah,

705
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 2: might as well.

706
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:06,000
Speaker 3: Wait wait, yeah, I guess you're right.

707
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 2: I don't know what I'm saying right now.

708
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:10,760
Speaker 3: Next one here, don't we don't know that much about Martin.

709
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 2: Next one is uh Jake Fisher saying keep an eye

710
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:19,439
Speaker 2: on the Rockets possibly trading bouncy forward kJ Martin aka

711
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:23,440
Speaker 2: Kenyan Martin Junior to create further financial flexibility. The Rockets

712
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 2: have held an increasing number of trade calls on Martin

713
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 2: with several teams since the draft. Atlanta, Phoenix, and Brooklyn

714
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 2: have been mentioned as Martin suitors dating back to the

715
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,880
Speaker 2: February trade deadline. I feel like the Dallas Mavericks were

716
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:38,560
Speaker 2: in the hunt for Kenny Martin Junior at one point

717
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:42,720
Speaker 2: as well. So, yeah, Rockets considering moving Kenyon Martin Jr.

718
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 2: I guess as part of opening up more opportunity, more space,

719
00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:50,840
Speaker 2: more money, whatever for potentially trying to get your maybe

720
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,800
Speaker 2: Van Vliet's and brook Lopezz and Dylan Brooks and so on.

721
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:57,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's exactly it. So slop wise I'm

722
00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,480
Speaker 3: going two buckets here because, like you're saying, and Houston

723
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,359
Speaker 3: just has so many young players. They've had so many

724
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:07,279
Speaker 3: draft picks in the past three drafts. They've lucked into

725
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:09,319
Speaker 3: Cam Whitmore at number twenty when that was a guy

726
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:11,720
Speaker 3: they were looking at with their top five pick. Obviously,

727
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,359
Speaker 3: Aman Thompson is going to be playing a big part here,

728
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:19,360
Speaker 3: even like they're later on rookies from prior seasons, like

729
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 3: Tarry Easton gets a lot of minutes, Usman Garuba is

730
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:23,759
Speaker 3: a solid player. There's just a lot of guys on

731
00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 3: Houston who need to play and who it feels like

732
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 3: the Rockets have invested a little more in, you know,

733
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 3: being higher picks something like that. So kJ Martin's got

734
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,800
Speaker 3: one point nine million dollars only on his contract for

735
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,960
Speaker 3: this year. It's over after this season, so they're thinking,

736
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,600
Speaker 3: if we can get a second round pick, maybe we

737
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:43,959
Speaker 3: can find us another kJ Martin somewhere down the line

738
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,879
Speaker 3: and give him a chance to play somewhere and open

739
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:48,439
Speaker 3: up more spots for our guys.

740
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,760
Speaker 2: I'm fascinated by the Rockets here heading into free agency

741
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,879
Speaker 2: and like if they could pull off like landing Van Vliet,

742
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 2: Brook Lopez and Dylan Brooks with that sixty million dollars

743
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 2: of cap space at their disposal, Like, how good they

744
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:05,280
Speaker 2: could potentially be right away with all the young talents

745
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:07,320
Speaker 2: still around them and a new coach. Like I'm not saying, like,

746
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:09,160
Speaker 2: you know, they're a top four team or anything, but

747
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:12,360
Speaker 2: that would be a solid team, Like they would be

748
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,360
Speaker 2: fighting for a play in spot. It'd be maybe a

749
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:18,880
Speaker 2: playoff team with those Vets if you can mesh them

750
00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:21,719
Speaker 2: together with your Jalen Greens and your Porter's still and

751
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:25,360
Speaker 2: like you said, Jabari and all that, I'm just fascinated

752
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,520
Speaker 2: by which direction they go, how hard they lean into.

753
00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 2: Like we're tired of winning sixteen seventeen games. We never

754
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:33,800
Speaker 2: win the actual draft lottery, So let's just get a

755
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:35,160
Speaker 2: bunch of Vets in here with a new coach and

756
00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 2: actually like try and try and get some dubs.

757
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. I mean, we'll see what they

758
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:44,239
Speaker 3: end up doing. But the Western Conference is really tough, yeah,

759
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:45,960
Speaker 3: and it's getting better at this point. It's like the

760
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:47,960
Speaker 3: Rockets and the Spurs are at the bottom, but the

761
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:49,440
Speaker 3: Spurs are on their way up. You know, they're going

762
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:51,720
Speaker 3: to be trying to win and hoping that when Benyama

763
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:54,400
Speaker 3: has an impact right away. So I don't know how

764
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:57,200
Speaker 3: much bringing in Van Vleet and Brook Lopez changes the

765
00:37:57,239 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 3: win totals, but they've been at seventeen and twenty two

766
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:04,399
Speaker 3: wins the past three seasons. Bringing in those guys, even

767
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:06,560
Speaker 3: if it goes poorly, you're thinking like we should be

768
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:10,760
Speaker 3: in the thirty win range. You're like challenging for forty wins.

769
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,040
Speaker 3: I feel like would be a great season for the Rockets,

770
00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:16,960
Speaker 3: and if things hit right, if all of their veteran

771
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,880
Speaker 3: signings actually improve the team, I can see them, you know,

772
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 3: at least being relevant in the second half of the season,

773
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 3: which I think would be a huge improvement.

774
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,800
Speaker 2: Next one here the Wolves interested in Bruce Brown and

775
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 2: Dante DiVincenzo. Fisher Wrights opposing executives are waiting to see

776
00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:34,920
Speaker 2: if the Timberwolves wave veteran wing Torrian Prince and his

777
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:37,719
Speaker 2: non guaranteed seven point five million dollar salary, which would

778
00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:40,920
Speaker 2: help Minnesota gain access to the full mid level exception.

779
00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 2: Several names linked to the Wolves at that salary slot,

780
00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:48,640
Speaker 2: and they're all playmaking, bigger combo guards like Bruce Brown

781
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:50,600
Speaker 2: and Dante de Vincenzo. There are a lot of rumors

782
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:53,120
Speaker 2: about Devincenzo possibly go into the Knicks because they're building

783
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 2: Villanova two point zero over there. Thoughts on this, how

784
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:59,280
Speaker 2: many buckets a slop I'll go look full, five buckets

785
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:03,080
Speaker 2: to slop here? Five buckets a slop fork that's too much.

786
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:04,160
Speaker 2: I'm a little shocked.

787
00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 3: Go on though, two players, two players here, and I

788
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 3: like both of them. Chris Brown has shown himself to

789
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 3: be a championship player obviously with the Nuggets, but I

790
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:15,960
Speaker 3: also think it's instructive to look back at his career

791
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:17,960
Speaker 3: like when he was playing with the Brooklyn Nuts. The

792
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,719
Speaker 3: guy was a back up four and five, happy to

793
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,399
Speaker 3: do it and make plays and still contribute as well.

794
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,319
Speaker 3: So he's gonna be worth whatever kind of deal he gets,

795
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:30,279
Speaker 3: and I'm guessing the mid level exception kind of makes sense.

796
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:35,320
Speaker 3: So the Timberwolves would obviously need to waive prints to

797
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 3: make that happen, because I think multiple teams will be

798
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,560
Speaker 3: willing to give Bruce Brown. Yeah, that twelve and a

799
00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:46,440
Speaker 3: half twelve point eight million dollar MLE, But I don't know.

800
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,320
Speaker 3: If you're the Wolves, do you think you could convince

801
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,319
Speaker 3: Bruce Brown to sign with you for the MLA? Even

802
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,160
Speaker 3: though you're competing with a whole bunch of other teams

803
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 3: if you guarantee him a starting spot, if you say

804
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 3: you're our starting point guard. Anthony Edwards obviously handles the

805
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:00,480
Speaker 3: ball a lot, but that's how Brown was playing like.

806
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:02,839
Speaker 3: He did bring the ball up for the Nuggets quite

807
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 3: a bit, but he played off the ball with Murray

808
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:07,680
Speaker 3: and Jokic handling the ball quite a bit as well.

809
00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 3: So there is a little bit of a spot there.

810
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,439
Speaker 3: In Minnesota. You can see Mike Conley being a bench

811
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:16,320
Speaker 3: point guard if they brought in Bruce Brown. But I

812
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:18,640
Speaker 3: think it's interesting because everybody's on the Bruce Brown train

813
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:21,799
Speaker 3: right now, and I feel like Devincenzo not the same

814
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:25,400
Speaker 3: kind of player. But you know, I'm loving the phrase

815
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 3: jack of all trades, master of none. He is a

816
00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:30,919
Speaker 3: good three point shooter. He's a contributing player on both

817
00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 3: ends of the court. He's helpful as well. If I'm

818
00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:36,280
Speaker 3: the Timberwolves, I want Bruce Brown first, But I wouldn't

819
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 3: be mad about Dante DiVincenzo, especially because he'll probably be

820
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:39,920
Speaker 3: a little bit cheaper.

821
00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 2: Yes right, I mean, he's like, you know, I guess

822
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:45,000
Speaker 2: opted out of his four point seven million dollars deal,

823
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:47,960
Speaker 2: so he's gonna get like quite an increase in payday.

824
00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:51,000
Speaker 2: So all right, I like that goes five full buckets

825
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:54,320
Speaker 2: of slot for that one final one then Jake Fisher.

826
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 2: Of course, the Wizards are seeking draft compensation for Montey

827
00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:00,960
Speaker 2: Morris and or Delon Wright, so they those veteran guards.

828
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 2: Washington currently has sixteen players on guaranteed contracts. The Wizards

829
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,440
Speaker 2: are expected to come to a biot agreement with Gallinari

830
00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:12,520
Speaker 2: that was acquired in the Porzingis trade, clearing the way

831
00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:15,759
Speaker 2: for the veteran scorer to find a home with a

832
00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 2: playoff contender, So that's Gallinari. But they maybe want some

833
00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 2: draft compensation because they have a lot of guards there,

834
00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:24,160
Speaker 2: obviously Tyas Jones coming over in that three way deal.

835
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:27,879
Speaker 2: Can they do it? Can they get something of note,

836
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,120
Speaker 2: I don't think this is a lottery pick by any means,

837
00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:33,279
Speaker 2: but something for either Monte Morris and or Delon Wright.

838
00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,720
Speaker 3: They could get something, but I don't think they're getting

839
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 3: anything all that interesting. I think that with this new

840
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:43,560
Speaker 3: CBA coming in, teams are going to be hoarding first

841
00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:45,759
Speaker 3: round picks. They're going to like the cost certainty and

842
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,359
Speaker 3: the long contracts that those guys are under, so there's

843
00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 3: no way that a team is trading a first round

844
00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:53,799
Speaker 3: pick for one of these two backup point guards. I'll

845
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:57,080
Speaker 3: give this two buckets a slopka one bucket for each

846
00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:59,880
Speaker 3: of those guys, because I do think that both Morris

847
00:41:59,960 --> 00:42:03,480
Speaker 3: and Right would be great players on other teams, and

848
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:06,839
Speaker 3: contending teams looking at the price will probably be like, yeah,

849
00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:09,360
Speaker 3: we'll take a Delon Right. Like, if you're the Mavericks,

850
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:11,319
Speaker 3: why wouldn't you trade something like a second round pick

851
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:14,120
Speaker 3: to bring him in as another creator off the bench.

852
00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:15,880
Speaker 3: So I think there will be interest in both of

853
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,279
Speaker 3: these players, but they're not going to be fetching a

854
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:18,800
Speaker 3: big return.

855
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:21,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I agree. I am very high on Delon Right.

856
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:23,880
Speaker 2: Remember I couldn't stop talking about him at the start

857
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:27,279
Speaker 2: of last season and how much impact he was having

858
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,080
Speaker 2: when he was healthy on the Wizards because he plays

859
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:31,719
Speaker 2: great defense. I always saw it in our Toronto days

860
00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:33,200
Speaker 2: when we had him as well. But yeah, he would

861
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:35,320
Speaker 2: help a lot of teams, and I buy that the

862
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,919
Speaker 2: Wizards be wise to move them for whatever second round

863
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:40,719
Speaker 2: draft compensation, whatever comes back for at least one, if

864
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:43,880
Speaker 2: not both, those guys. Final one here Jake Fisher, who

865
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:47,480
Speaker 2: says the Clippers guard Norman Powell is also considered available

866
00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:50,440
Speaker 2: for trade across the league. His name was first mentioned

867
00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:53,880
Speaker 2: in the Clippers' early efforts to acquire Chris Paul from

868
00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:55,920
Speaker 2: the Wizards, so that's when you started hearing on Norman

869
00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:59,279
Speaker 2: Powell could be available. So Jake Fisher says, he is

870
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:04,320
Speaker 2: how many buckets a slop with Norman Powell possibly available

871
00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:04,719
Speaker 2: for trade?

872
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:08,960
Speaker 3: Uh, give me three buckets a slop for Norman Powell.

873
00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:11,759
Speaker 3: You got to convince yourself that he's gonna be worth

874
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:14,279
Speaker 3: his contract of twenty million dollars in the twenty five

875
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:18,759
Speaker 3: twenty six season. But Powell is a bucket of baskets

876
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:24,040
Speaker 3: off the bench seventeen per game last season, forty eight

877
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:26,359
Speaker 3: percent from the field, forty from three. We've seen him

878
00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:29,440
Speaker 3: contribute to a winning team with the Raptors. That's a

879
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,560
Speaker 3: player that I think teams will be interested in, maybe

880
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:34,839
Speaker 3: more so at the trade deadline when you're looking around

881
00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:37,440
Speaker 3: saying we need some kind of punch off the bench here,

882
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:40,560
Speaker 3: We need one more creator to really push us over

883
00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:42,920
Speaker 3: the edge. But yeah, I think a team should and

884
00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:45,040
Speaker 3: will take a chance on Norman Powell, and I think

885
00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:47,160
Speaker 3: it's probably smart for the Clippers to move off him

886
00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:49,799
Speaker 3: as well, just because he's got this long contract. Things

887
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:54,680
Speaker 3: seem a little unsettled in La right now, and making

888
00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 3: a move that brings something back for the future, it's

889
00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:57,960
Speaker 3: probably smart for La.

890
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:00,759
Speaker 2: Okay, So you see this as realistic either here in

891
00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:04,440
Speaker 2: this free agency window or at some point in the summer,

892
00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 2: or if not, if he's up there at the start

893
00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:08,400
Speaker 2: of the year next year, maybe around the trade deadline.

894
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:10,880
Speaker 2: I could I definitely could see that because you can

895
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:11,960
Speaker 2: talk yourself into Norman Powell.

896
00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:12,480
Speaker 3: Definitely.

897
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:16,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a great, great little addition to our squad,

898
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:19,600
Speaker 2: that is maybe. I mean, man, those pigs, I like

899
00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:22,120
Speaker 2: that sounds a lot of them every time they pop

900
00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:24,280
Speaker 2: up and go away, eh and give a little squeal,

901
00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:28,640
Speaker 2: a little snort. Yeah, good stuff. I'm with you on

902
00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:32,080
Speaker 2: this one about three buckets, Norman Powell. Any other thoughts

903
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:34,880
Speaker 2: any other slop out there that I missed that you

904
00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:35,640
Speaker 2: wanted to address.

905
00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:42,440
Speaker 3: I wasn't in the fields today. I wasn't in the stables.

906
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:46,359
Speaker 3: Sent the boy out to do the work he needs

907
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,680
Speaker 3: to learn the way I learned from my father.

908
00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:53,200
Speaker 2: Slop season. The slop scale is not a keeper. You

909
00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:55,880
Speaker 2: tell us do you like hearing a bunch of pigs

910
00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:59,239
Speaker 2: in your ear holes? Or like seeing that little piggy

911
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:02,479
Speaker 2: face pop up here on YouTube? I'm a fan of it. JD.

912
00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:03,080
Speaker 2: Great work.

913
00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:05,279
Speaker 3: I like that little pig. Oh yeah, I have to

914
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:07,879
Speaker 3: says p doorable little great find great.

915
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:10,520
Speaker 2: What where'd you find that?

916
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:16,640
Speaker 4: You know, I'm not a designer, so I literally I

917
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:21,800
Speaker 4: searched pig farmer wink or something like that. That's what

918
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:23,320
Speaker 4: I came up failed it.

919
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:25,920
Speaker 2: All right, Well, let's hear everybody's thoughts on all those

920
00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:28,480
Speaker 2: NBA rumors. How many buckets of slop do you assigned

921
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:31,600
Speaker 2: to each one? Let's get to tweeted the night.

922
00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 3: Tweed of the night.

923
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:41,120
