I talk, but look, this 32 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 2: is a really under the radar story from the Super 33 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 2: Bowl that I can't believe hasn't gotten more attention. And 34 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 2: maybe it's going to now and it revolves around Tom Brady. 35 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:45,639 Speaker 1: Okay. 36 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 2: Tom Brady said the other day he was asked about 37 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 2: who he's rooting, you know, is rooting interest in the 38 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 2: Super Bowl. You're expecting him to say, well, you know, 39 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 2: the Patriots. I mean really, it was almost his entire 40 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 2: career was there. He became a Hall of Fame player 41 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 2: there Patriots and Tom Brady's synonymous. But he says, you know, 42 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 2: I don't have a dog in the fight this. I 43 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 2: want to see good clean football. I want to see, 44 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 2: you know, both teams play well. You know, obviously, hey, 45 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,359 Speaker 2: super proud of everything I've seen from Mike Vrabel and 46 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 2: the Patriots. They've been able to restart this. You know, 47 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 2: all the things you normally get from a guy who okay, 48 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 2: if he's broadcasting the game, I get it right, Okay. 49 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 1: But he's not. 50 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 2: And today Rob Gronkowski was asked he was on up 51 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 2: at Adams with Kay Adams. They said, hey, you know, 52 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,239 Speaker 2: Tom hasn't really said he was rooting for in the 53 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 2: Super Bowl. And gron said, oh, you know, Tom, he 54 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 2: probably just thinks he probably wants to still be playing. 55 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 2: It's all competitive with him. He wants to still be playing, 56 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 2: and that's probably why he's saying that. 57 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, both of. 58 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 2: Those answers are an absolute load of crap. If there 59 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 2: is any more evidence you need that Tom Brady still 60 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 2: is pissed at the Patriots, pissed at Belichick, pissed at 61 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 2: Bob Kraft for moving on from him, for low balling him. 62 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 2: You need no more evidence other than this is a 63 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 2: freebee question. Who are you rooting for in a Super Bowl? 64 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 2: The team you spent twenty years with? No, there's guys 65 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 2: that are out of the woodwork. Last year when the 66 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 2: Knicks were in the East Finals and they were like, ah, 67 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 2: they played there, they played eight games there in two 68 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 2: thousand and seven. 69 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: Oh the Knicks. Look at the Knicks. O here. 70 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 2: Tom Brady can't even say he's rooting for the Patriots 71 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl again, the team that he is 72 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,959 Speaker 2: synonymous with two decades of his career. He was there 73 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 2: before the cup of coffee with the Bucks at the 74 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 2: end in the Super Bowl. You know he is still pissed. 75 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 2: Him and Craft and Belichick, they put on a masterclass 76 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 2: of being able to be civil with each other and 77 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 2: saying glowing things about one another in the media, right 78 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 2: because they all know if I'm the guy that says 79 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 2: what's on my mind, I'm the one that looks petty. 80 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 2: Brady knows if I'm the one that says, Belichick blank, 81 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 2: you man, you cut bait on me. Look at you now, man, 82 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 2: you couldn't even win another playoff game. You've been fired. 83 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 2: Brady looks like he's the guy being petty. Belichick does 84 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 2: the same thing. Oh, you know, Tom thinks he was 85 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 2: this good. 86 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: Look. 87 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 2: You know, Tom wasn't the you know I was able 88 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 2: to get him out. Tom wasn't the biggest part. You know, 89 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 2: they didn't win until I got there. I gave Tom 90 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 2: the job, not that he would say that. But if 91 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 2: he says that he looks petty, anything Bob Craft says 92 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 2: looks petty, He's like, yeah, no, Hey, Tom's great, Bill's great. 93 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 2: Everything is great. But you know that there was a 94 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 2: big struggle for power. And in the end, Bob Craft 95 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 2: back Tom Brady for the beginning when he got Jimmy 96 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 2: Garoppolo traded right, because that was a big part of it. 97 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 2: Hey didn't like the fact that Belichick drafted Garoppolo. Wanted 98 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 2: to turn the page on Tom Brady as early as 99 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 2: he did. Hey, but Bob Craft traded Jimmy Garoppolo. Okay, 100 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 2: solid for Brady. But at the end, when Brady still 101 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 2: had a couple of good years left, they low balled 102 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 2: him on an offer and they kicked him out the 103 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 2: door and to go someplace else. And they really hurt 104 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,159 Speaker 2: his value because not many teams were in on Tom Brady. 105 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,039 Speaker 2: It was Tampa Bay and it was a Chargers. That 106 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:52,919 Speaker 2: was the only two teams that were in. Because somehow 107 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 2: it was all Brady's value is not that great anymore, 108 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:56,719 Speaker 2: not that great anymore. When he goes and he wins 109 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl, gets the playoffs again and he wins 110 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,160 Speaker 2: his battle with New England. But make no mistake about it, 111 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 2: he still is pissed. He's always gonna have the Patriots 112 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 2: at arm's length. He'll say wonderful things whenever he is 113 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 2: honored or shows up once every couple of years, Jersey retirement, whatever, 114 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,359 Speaker 2: he's gonna be there. I miss the fans, I miss. 115 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 1: All of you. 116 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 2: They'll all cheer for him, but make no mistake, he 117 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 2: has still pissed at the Patriots. He will be at 118 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 2: arms length with them for all of his life because 119 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 2: he's still not over them kicking him out and making 120 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 2: him sign someplace the easiest that no one would blame 121 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 2: Brady if he says, Hey, of course want to see it. 122 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 2: But I played with Mike. I threw Mike Vrabel touchdowns, 123 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 2: Mike Carmon, I threw this guy touchdowns, and I'm not. 124 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: Rooting for him. I'm not rooting for the Patriots. You know, 125 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: he is still pissed at the Patriots, and that's never 126 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 1: going away. 127 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 3: All right, My tongue is planted firmly in my cheek. 128 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 4: Ready, Maybe he's now truly embraced his role as journalist media, 129 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 4: because I keep hearing people saying I don't root. 130 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah you do, Yeah, you do. 131 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 4: Don't lie to me, And that's plenty of folks in 132 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 4: our business. I don't root, I just watch. No, you 133 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 4: know you root one way or another. But for Brady, 134 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 4: he also had Vince Wilfork, one of my favorite players 135 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 4: of all time, said stop with the political Well I 136 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 4: can't say the word that he did on air, but 137 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 4: all the ex teammates one after another, a sante Samuel, 138 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,479 Speaker 4: you keep going on down the line you got I 139 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,159 Speaker 4: think is starting twenty two that have lined up going Tommy, 140 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 4: what are you doing? 141 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 3: What are you doing? 142 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 4: So either he is full journal or he decided he 143 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 4: wanted to make the Super Bowl week about him. 144 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:34,840 Speaker 3: This isn't the positive way to do it. 145 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 4: Pushing yourself away from where you were in the best 146 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 4: when everybody's already talking about the Hall of Fame and 147 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 4: whether you should be kept out on your first bat, 148 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 4: probably not the best way to go. 149 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 2: But for Brady, Yeah, it's a curious step. Be salty, 150 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 2: but I mean do that over a. 151 00:06:55,080 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 3: Cocktail behind closed doors. Man doing it this way. 152 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 1: I get it. 153 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 2: If the Super Bowl was on Fox, he was doing 154 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 2: the game, because that's gonna rub people the wrong way. 155 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: Hey, yeah, I want the Patriots to win. 156 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 2: Okay, Well, then now suddenly you're gonna slant your coverage 157 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 2: and what you say about the team, And oh, I 158 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 2: can't stand that, Tom Brady.

That's three chance. That's that's 389 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 1: three p right there? Why o pat Riley seven dollars? 390 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:36,919 Speaker 8: So in other words, they're going to get more in 391 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,640 Speaker 8: the next year than they've got in their entire history. 392 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 8: Is that what we're talking about? 393 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 2: It's about, right, Yeah, the the Karama basketball gods, Hoemi 394 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 2: Rick and now I'm cashing. 395 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 8: In minus wellt minus welt shoot high. When are we 396 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 8: going to get to the Landry Shammon conversation?

Forget Jalen Brunts 399 00:17:57,800 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 2: and Landry Shamman apparently is the NBA MVP. 400 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,199 Speaker 8: I feel I'm a big I'm a big I'm a 401 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 8: big fan of Landry Shammont and what he's and what 402 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:05,920 Speaker 8: he's doing for the next Right. 403 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 2: Now, I will say, now, as far as the trade 404 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 2: deadline goes, right, we had two big stars dealt in 405 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 2: the last twenty four hours. You go get to Giannis 406 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,239 Speaker 2: in a second. Uh, let's start with let's start with 407 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 2: today the Anthony Davis trade. I think the fact that 408 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,400 Speaker 2: it was Washington kind of came out of nowhere because 409 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,439 Speaker 2: we heard hey, when they were talking to Toronto. You know, 410 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,160 Speaker 2: what's your reaction to seeing Ad going to Washington. 411 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 8: This is what happens when a team decides that you 412 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 8: are the guy they believe in you. You are the 413 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 8: guy that is going to take us above and beyond 414 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 8: the NBA Finals. We're going to trade Luca Donsons who 415 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 8: got us to the finals but did not win it. 416 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 8: We believe that you are the guy that can get 417 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 8: us to the finals and actually win a championship. And 418 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 8: then when you are the guy that is contrusted with 419 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:01,159 Speaker 8: that responsibility and flattered in that way, and then you 420 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 8: show up the following season overweight, they send you to 421 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:07,040 Speaker 8: the Washington Wizards. 422 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 9: That's what they do. 423 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:12,959 Speaker 8: They Wow, we're gonna send you to the Washington Wizards. 424 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 8: We're gonna send you. I do a podcast with with 425 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,439 Speaker 8: Brendan Haywood, who does work for the Wizards, and so 426 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,360 Speaker 8: I'm not allowed to say we're gonna send you to Hell. 427 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 8: We're gonna send you to purgatory. 428 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 1: You know, I said it we started the show. 429 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 2: I said, you know, the Wizards have become the NBA 430 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 2: team where if you get traded there, that is the 431 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,240 Speaker 2: ultimate look in the mirror moment. What have I done 432 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,400 Speaker 2: in my career to get traded here? Like it used 433 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,199 Speaker 2: to be the Clippers, Now it's the Wizards. 434 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:42,159 Speaker 8: That's where that's that's where. Yeah, that's where careers go 435 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 8: to die. 436 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 3: Yeah. 437 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:49,160 Speaker 4: Speaking of the Clippers, they trade James harden Away and 438 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 4: you get Darius Garland trying to follow in the footsteps 439 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 4: of his dad, Winston, who played for them so long ago. 440 00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 4: What does this really new? You had both teams surgery, 441 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 4: they still. 442 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 8: Chuck Taylor's too. 443 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 3: Yeah. I think maybe once he actually gets back on 444 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:07,639 Speaker 3: the court, right. 445 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 8: Yes, yeah, maybe he should try the Chuck Taylors because 446 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 8: he's had a lot of foot problems. Maybe that's the solution. Look, 447 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:19,320 Speaker 8: I think it's a I think it's a shrewd move. 448 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:23,120 Speaker 8: I'm big on it for the Los Angeles Clippers because 449 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 8: I do believe that Darius Garland, at what twenty six 450 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 8: years old, two time All Star, I still believe he 451 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 8: has a lot of potential and I believe in the 452 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:37,680 Speaker 8: medical you know, the therapeutic abilities of today's sports science 453 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,440 Speaker 8: that they can figure out what the problem is and 454 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:45,919 Speaker 8: get him back on the court and playing. And in 455 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,360 Speaker 8: the meantime, no matter what anybody tells you about what 456 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:52,439 Speaker 8: why Cleveland did it. Cleveland had has the second highest 457 00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:56,440 Speaker 8: or had the second highest payroll behind the Golden State Warriors. 458 00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,679 Speaker 8: They needed to get off of some money going into 459 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 8: next year, and Darius Garland is signed up for the 460 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 8: next few few years. James Harden is not. So this 461 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 8: is really and I would say that with a number 462 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 8: of these moves, they are when if you're trying to 463 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 8: figure out was there something competitively, was there an advantage 464 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 8: created here? It's not about it's not about competition. This 465 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 8: is where the salary cap rules are still jumping in. 466 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 8: There's a lot of people that are just trying to 467 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 8: get their books right or open up the ability to 468 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 8: either avoid the second apron or get out of it 469 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,160 Speaker 8: in order to have a little more flexibility in being 470 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,000 Speaker 8: able to add pieces. And I would say that that's 471 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 8: sort of where the knicks are hamstrung, because if I'm 472 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 8: not mistaken, they're only like two hundred, three hundred thousand 473 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:50,440 Speaker 8: dollars away from that second apron, and they don't want 474 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 8: to go into that by any stretch, and so that's 475 00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 8: limiting exactly what they can do. 476 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 2: Now, I let me tell you that now before we 477 00:21:57,880 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 2: get to you, honest, let me just say this about 478 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 2: the next right, we talk about this, you talk about 479 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 2: problems all this. I'm going to tell you one thing 480 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:06,439 Speaker 2: that this is what makes the Knicks so deadly. 481 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:08,159 Speaker 1: And it was on display to night. 482 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 2: Not the fact that mckelbridge will commit a stupid fault 483 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,400 Speaker 2: the end the regulation. But you tell me one team 484 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 2: in the NBA that in a close game out executes 485 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 2: the Knicks the final four minutes. Nobody, Nobody out executes 486 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 2: the Knicks in the final four minutes of a close 487 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 2: game any kind. They could be playing awful for the 488 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 2: first forty four minutes, but those last four minutes of 489 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 2: a close game, it's a three point game, four point 490 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 2: game either way. They find a way to win every 491 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:36,199 Speaker 2: single time nobody out does them down the stretch in 492 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:37,639 Speaker 2: a game. And that that's something I don't think we 493 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 2: talk about enough with them. 494 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 1: Wow, Rick is speechless. 495 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,720 Speaker 3: I think he's trade you. 496 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 8: I thought that you, I thought that we got cut 497 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:53,959 Speaker 8: off there you suddenly you went silent, So I ended it. 498 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 8: But I heard enough of it to know, and I 499 00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 8: just want to say that it's incredibly unfair. You are 500 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 8: taking this stance without giving me the opportunity to prepare 501 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:15,439 Speaker 8: for a retort, knowing that it's coming. But I will 502 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 8: I will say so. 503 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 6: In games decided by three points or less, the Knicks 504 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 6: are five and two, the Pistons are eight and four, 505 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,440 Speaker 6: the Raptors are seven and three, the Miami Heat are 506 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 6: six and two, the Orlando Magic are seven and two. 507 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 8: So I don't know that you really have the war. 508 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 2: It doesn't need it doesn't need to be games that 509 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 2: are settled by three points or less. It's games that 510 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 2: are close, because the Knicks win these games by five 511 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 2: or seven. They're down three, they win by five or seven. 512 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 2: And oh, by the way, what do you mean you 513 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 2: didn't have anything prepared? You put that right off the 514 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 2: top of your head. You know you're a genius. 515 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:02,119 Speaker 8: No, So that was the advantage of you going silent 516 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 8: there for a heartbeat. 517 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 1: I was okay. 518 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:07,760 Speaker 8: I was able to look that up. I was like, 519 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 8: hold on a second, I gotta have something. 520 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:14,399 Speaker 4: Here, all right, Rick, We'll get instant reactions that you're 521 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,640 Speaker 4: with us live and in living color report coming out 522 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 4: of the four Letter, Jonathan Kaminga and Buddy Healed are 523 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:27,679 Speaker 4: headed to Atlanta and exchange for Jason's old buddy Christaps 524 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 4: porzingis Wow. 525 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 3: Interesting. 526 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 8: I like that. I like the gambit, but that also 527 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:43,679 Speaker 8: closes the door on Janni's coming to the Warriors. I 528 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 8: don't know that that ever had a serious chance of happening, 529 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,399 Speaker 8: but quite clearly the Warriors, see I've been thinking about 530 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 8: this and wondering and kind of checking around to see 531 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 8: how they were gonna when they were going to pull 532 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,359 Speaker 8: the trigger on this, because there's a good chance that 533 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 8: Jannis does get moved until this summer. And my guess 534 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 8: is that the Warriors became aware of that, and I 535 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 8: was like, they can't hold on to Kaminga until then, 536 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,400 Speaker 8: Like they just they they have to make a move. 537 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 8: Perzingis makes a lot of sense, a lot of sense. 538 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,560 Speaker 8: If he's healthy, that's the big that's the big issue here, 539 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,679 Speaker 8: and you have Steph dealing with a knee. Jimmy Butler 540 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 8: is out this and this is a little bit more. 541 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 8: I know. I just put my faith in medical and 542 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 8: sports scientus science when it comes to Darius Garland. But 543 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 8: this is a little bit different, just because christophs Perzingis 544 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 8: has been dealing with this for well at least two years, 545 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 8: two years plus now and they haven't been able to 546 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:52,920 Speaker 8: find a solution. And I haven't checked his age lately, 547 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:56,159 Speaker 8: but he's a little long in the tooth. I like 548 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 8: it as a gambit. They're certainly going to I would 549 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 8: say that they're going to get more out of Perzingis 550 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 8: than they were getting out of Kamingau. And Buddy really 551 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 8: just had He's hit his expiration date, so it makes 552 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:17,320 Speaker 8: a ton of sense from the Warriors end the Hawks, 553 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 8: I'm not I get them moving him. I'm not sure 554 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 8: what they're going to do. This is the biggest question 555 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,400 Speaker 8: that I have coming out of the trade deadline is 556 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:31,680 Speaker 8: identifying the teams that have just decided, you know what, 557 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 8: this draft is going to be an all time draft. 558 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 8: There could be ten guys in this draft who are 559 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 8: instant starters and potential franchise at least corelate pieces, if 560 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 8: not cornerstones. I want to see how many teams decide 561 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:54,119 Speaker 8: to turn and say we're just going to angle for 562 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 8: being in the lottery for this draft. I think this 563 00:26:57,760 --> 00:26:59,440 Speaker 8: is a year where you're going to see a lot 564 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 8: of teams take that turn. I would not be surprised 565 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,920 Speaker 8: at the Clippers, for example, or one of them. 566 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: All Right, So lastly wrote let's go here. 567 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 2: If now a Yanni's trade is seeming unlike least for 568 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 2: the Warriors, moving on, if I said to you by 569 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 2: the deadline tomorrow, there's a big name or two that 570 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 2: you wouldn't be surprised to see moved outside of Giannis. Look, 571 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,719 Speaker 2: we've already seen Harden, We've already seen a d today. 572 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 2: Who's a big name you wouldn't be surprised to be. 573 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,640 Speaker 1: Moved tomorrow, John Morant. 574 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 2: And really all of a sudden, there's a market for 575 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 2: him now, because last week you came on and said, boy, 576 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 2: gonna be really tough for them to get a market 577 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 2: for Ja Morant. 578 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:36,439 Speaker 1: Now there's a market for Ja Morant. 579 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 8: Well, I just don't I don't think there's gonna be 580 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 8: I mean, it depends on what you're going to be 581 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:44,399 Speaker 8: giving up. But you know you gave up c J. 582 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:47,479 Speaker 8: McCullum and Corey Kisberg for Trey Young. If that's the 583 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 8: price of getting John Morant, then I could see a 584 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,360 Speaker 8: number of teams deciding to do that, and if Memphis 585 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:56,480 Speaker 8: has come to the realization that the market's not gonna 586 00:27:56,480 --> 00:28:00,159 Speaker 8: get any better. Uh, and you know what we'd like 587 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 8: to angle for that, we'd like to angle for that 588 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:07,199 Speaker 8: that that lottery as well. Having moved Jaron Jackson is 589 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 8: the thing that makes me think they're they're just ready 590 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 8: to blow it up and move on and so and 591 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:18,199 Speaker 8: and it's he's just kind of in that Jonathan kaminga 592 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:23,120 Speaker 8: you know, gray area where you know that the two 593 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 8: sides want a divorce. Uh and so it's like, why 594 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 8: mess around and uh, you know, just and screw up 595 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,159 Speaker 8: the kids and the rest of the family. Let's just 596 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,640 Speaker 8: move on and get him out of here. So that's 597 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 8: why I think that if I'm going to pick anybody 598 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 8: that would that would be the one. 599 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 1: He's on Twitter at Rick Buker.

He 747 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 2: gets traded to the Hawks. Christops Porzingis goes to the 748 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:23,240 Speaker 2: Warriors all the Sunday. That's the best the Warriors could do. Okay, 749 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:25,319 Speaker 2: that's great. They wanted to get out from under Kaminga 750 00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 2: and they bring in Porzingis. Okay, Hey, Porzingis was a 751 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,439 Speaker 2: was a big member of the Celtics title winning team 752 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:34,120 Speaker 2: a couple of years ago. So okay, But as Rick 753 00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:37,320 Speaker 2: pointed out, that takes the Warriors out of the running 754 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:40,400 Speaker 2: for Jannis, because any trade was gonna have to involve Kaminga, 755 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:44,319 Speaker 2: his his youth, his potential, his salary, whatever was gonna 756 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,839 Speaker 2: be was gonna have to be surrounded and around Jonathan Kaminga. 757 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 2: Now I'll go, I'll go a step further on this now, 758 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 2: and I'll tell you how the rest of the trade 759 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:56,360 Speaker 2: deadline's gonna go. When the trade deadline comes and goes tomorrow, 760 00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 2: Jannis will still be in Milwaukee, buck Right. You had 761 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:02,640 Speaker 2: the crazy yesterday of him talking about how, oh, if 762 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:06,320 Speaker 2: everything was equal, my desire is to stay here in Milwaukee, 763 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 2: buck forever and ever and ever. 764 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:09,560 Speaker 1: But if they have to trade me, I understand. 765 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 2: Nothing really has come to fruition that makes you think 766 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:16,759 Speaker 2: a Yannis trade is close, right, Like what the what 767 00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:19,320 Speaker 2: the heat put out there? A package supposedly a package 768 00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 2: that was headlined by Tyler Herro and Haimi Hakkez Okay, 769 00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:25,759 Speaker 2: we said it. I don't know that's gonna get better 770 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 2: than that, you know, which which maybe you might not 771 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 2: like that, but that might be the best the package 772 00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:32,840 Speaker 2: gets for him. At this point, the Knicks aren't trading 773 00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 2: for him, not after ripping off eight in a row 774 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 2: and fixing their defensive issues. The Warriors are out now 775 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:41,920 Speaker 2: after trading Kaminga. So are they really gonna trade him 776 00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:44,920 Speaker 2: to the Wolves or are they gonna wait hit reset? 777 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,359 Speaker 2: Because any move they make now is not gonna help 778 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,120 Speaker 2: them for this year? Right anything they do now, it's 779 00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:51,880 Speaker 2: not gonna help them. It's better off and the Bucks 780 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:54,600 Speaker 2: are better served if everybody takes a breath right now, 781 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:56,200 Speaker 2: because two of the teams that you would think would 782 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 2: be all in on Giannis are now out with with 783 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,480 Speaker 2: the Knicks and the Warriors out, they'll wait. We get 784 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:04,279 Speaker 2: to the off season, then teams are going to see 785 00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:06,120 Speaker 2: where they're at. And a team like the Knicks, who 786 00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 2: if they don't get to the finals and fall short, 787 00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:11,239 Speaker 2: is gonna be okay, Karl Anthony Towns, mcal Bridges, what 788 00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:13,600 Speaker 2: are we gonna do here? Let's make it happen. Right, 789 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 2: Suddenly their take for Jiannis gets bigger. Maybe the Warriors 790 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:19,959 Speaker 2: it's a bigger take. They can offer something a little 791 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,400 Speaker 2: bit more because they wind up doing something more creative. 792 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 1: Maybe the Heat have a better offer. 793 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,800 Speaker 2: Maybe another team that we're not thinking about comes in says, yeah, 794 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:29,560 Speaker 2: we can do something for Yannis. May maybe you get 795 00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 2: the Jazz making a run all the way and they wait, 796 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:35,920 Speaker 2: we're a Yanis away. You get to the off season, 797 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:38,320 Speaker 2: you're gonna get a better deal for Yannis. Right, It's 798 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 2: just simply going to be the case. If he was 799 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 2: gonna get dealt we would be hearing about names, and 800 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:45,719 Speaker 2: we'd be hearing about big names out there that it 801 00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 2: would be an offer that Milwaukee couldn't refuse. So far, 802 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 2: the offers that are out there, when we've heard about 803 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,319 Speaker 2: all stuff Milwaukee can say no to, and we're going 804 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 2: to figure it out after this year. Now they can 805 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 2: sell tickets, Jannis can come back to play in a 806 00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,360 Speaker 2: few weeks. Everybody gets to go watch them again. They 807 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,239 Speaker 2: could wave good him over the course of the next 808 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:04,160 Speaker 2: few months. It's gonna be awesome, right. Bucks fans get 809 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:06,760 Speaker 2: to say goodbye, get all teary eye, They play video 810 00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:09,880 Speaker 2: tributes for Giannis all the time, and everybody is served 811 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:12,759 Speaker 2: better by trading him in the off season. Giannis gets 812 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:14,839 Speaker 2: to go where he wants to go. The Bucks get 813 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 2: a better package. Overall, everybody wins if they wait. I 814 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 2: think now seeing the teams drop out, it's going to 815 00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:22,239 Speaker 2: be too difficult to get a good deal for Yeah. 816 00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:24,920 Speaker 4: I mean we've been watching the odds live over the 817 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:28,319 Speaker 4: last week or so, even though we started talking about 818 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:31,640 Speaker 4: this Gianna stuff, what two months ago, maybe maybe longer, 819 00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:35,000 Speaker 4: maybe towards the beginning of the season when it started badly, 820 00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:38,520 Speaker 4: but of late now and he's back and starting to 821 00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:42,920 Speaker 4: get his workouts ramped up and whatever. Remember his diagnosis 822 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:46,080 Speaker 4: was a self diagnosis of that. Yeah, three to six weeks, 823 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,959 Speaker 4: which coincide trade deadline, the All Star break and everything else. 824 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:53,919 Speaker 4: But you look at where they're at statistically, right, they're 825 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:57,680 Speaker 4: twenty and twenty nine, three and seven their last ten, 826 00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:03,520 Speaker 4: pretty miserable. Nothing they do is gonna make them subtly juiced. 827 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:08,359 Speaker 4: And for any of these other teams that were out there, 828 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:12,480 Speaker 4: Warriors were the third favorite, the Bulls were the second favorite, 829 00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 4: and then you had the Miami Heat or staying in 830 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:19,920 Speaker 4: Milwaukee where the top two options. Well, Golden State's gone 831 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:22,520 Speaker 4: because Minga's the big chip, as you said, five years 832 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:24,799 Speaker 4: in the league and still what twenty three years old 833 00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:28,000 Speaker 4: and a guy that clearly just didn't get along with 834 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:30,840 Speaker 4: Steve Kerr, Right, that's it. He got in the doghouse, 835 00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:34,319 Speaker 4: didn't work his way back out and was healthy, scratched 836 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:36,160 Speaker 4: multiple times whatever. 837 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:37,359 Speaker 3: So you move out to there. 838 00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:39,279 Speaker 4: The Bulls got rid of half the guys that were 839 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,879 Speaker 4: on the list that were supposed to be in any 840 00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 4: type of trade with all the moves. 841 00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:45,720 Speaker 3: They've been making. So that's gone. 842 00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:49,520 Speaker 4: And again alluding to what Rick talked about, when you 843 00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:52,880 Speaker 4: talk about contracts and aprons and all that, that's the 844 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,680 Speaker 4: complicated part of it. The other part that he brought 845 00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:58,760 Speaker 4: up was looking at the draft. Well, as it stands, 846 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:02,200 Speaker 4: the Bucks are part of the lottery. Hey, last year, 847 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:05,439 Speaker 4: the uh, the Mavericks had a what one point eight 848 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:11,440 Speaker 4: percent chance to win it. You're saying there's a chance. 849 00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:12,040 Speaker 1: There's a chance. 850 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 2: I mean, if I thought there was momentum moving towards it, 851 00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:18,440 Speaker 2: I would say yeah. But it kind of feels like 852 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:20,839 Speaker 2: that's how it's headed that, you know what we thought 853 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:23,000 Speaker 2: it could happen. We tried to put something together. We've 854 00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 2: given teams some counter offers. We would hear more that, hey, 855 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,760 Speaker 2: these teams are moving towards a deal. We're moving towards 856 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:30,360 Speaker 2: an agreement. 857 00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:31,040 Speaker 1: We haven't. 858 00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:32,719 Speaker 2: I feel like, Okay, we're gonna put it away for 859 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:35,040 Speaker 2: the for next year. It'll happen to the off seOne 860 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:37,239 Speaker 2: hundred percent. Happens in the off season one hundred percent. 861 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:38,040 Speaker 2: But that's when it happened. 862 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,319 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, because neither side wants to be a bad guy. 863 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:42,520 Speaker 4: Some we've talked about. Go find the podcast that's up 864 00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:43,600 Speaker 4: wherever you get your audio. 865 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:46,520 Speaker 1: Exit up about a Fresco exit swollen dome. 866 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:49,920 Speaker 2: Jason Smith Mike Carmon Live from the Fox Sports Radio Studios. 867 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:53,120 Speaker 2: Coming up next, we get back into the biggest story 868 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:55,160 Speaker 2: of the day.
