What do you think Seaton play 42 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 1: in game winner, who is the greatest play in game 43 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:24,839 Speaker 1: player of all time? Oh, Kyrie, Kyrie or the field. Yeah, 44 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: I would think it's Kyrie who was wonderful last night, 45 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: So it'd be the what would be the award though, 46 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 1: because it's the most outstanding play in player the mop 47 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 1: in mop mop okay uh. Speaking of Kyrie, the Nets 48 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 1: defeated my Cavaliers last night. You know what's great about 49 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: last night? And I was watching this, but you know, 50 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: these are teams that I do watch during the year. 51 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 1: Darius Garland. You got a chance to see him last night, 52 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: and nobody's watching the Cavaliers. You got a chance to 53 00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: see Darius Garland. He's the real deal. He's a great 54 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: player and he was on display last night. Got overshadowed 55 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: by Kyrie, but Kyrie was great. Also, if you watched 56 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: the Minnesota Timberwolves, Anthony Edwards is a man. When he's 57 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: out there, he looks like he should be playing linebacker. 58 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 1: He is, and he plays like he should be playing linebacker. 59 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: He's a really exceptional player as well. And that's what 60 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: I love when you get a chance to watch these 61 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 1: players because a lot of times you'll just see a 62 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 1: highlighter too, and you don't get to watch them. You know, 63 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: national TV. You get a chance to be on center stage, 64 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: and I like that that you get these opportunities that 65 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: you probably normally wouldn't be watching these teams play. But 66 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 1: Edwards is a star and Darius Garland is the real 67 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 1: deal there. You know, you had a Brooklyn team at home. 68 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 1: I think they were favored by eight and a half 69 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: or nine, and this is their mo They can score, 70 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: they can open up a big league. Then they sort 71 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: of let you creep back. And I thought the Cats 72 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:04,119 Speaker 1: were down by twenty. I thought, man, can they come 73 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: back to make it at least interesting? And they did. 74 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: You know, Kyrie had a perfect night almost he had 75 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: thirty four KD look wonderful. And you know you're going 76 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: against the Cavs team that didn't have one of their 77 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,160 Speaker 1: better players in Jared Allen, the former Brooklyn net and 78 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: now you got the Celtics coming up. You just can't 79 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: afford to take your foot off the accelerator. They feel 80 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: like they're the favorites to win the East, but you 81 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: know they got a long, long road here and they 82 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: have to outscore you. They're not going to stop you defensively, 83 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: it's going to be can we score enough to beat you? 84 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 1: And Brooklyn ends up winning. We got a couple of 85 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 1: comments after the game, including here's Bruce Brown case you 86 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 1: didn't know, he's with the Nets, might be their third 87 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 1: best player, and he was talking about playing the Boston Celtics. 88 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 1: And this is what it sounded like. You guys obviously 89 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: faced them two weeks ago. What do you think the 90 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: biggest key is it is just slowing the Celtics down. 91 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: I mean, we can't let's say them get fifty. Now 92 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: they don't have Robert Williams, so um, they have less 93 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: of a presence in the paint. Uh and we could 94 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 1: attack alt Hord for entice. So they're not having Robert 95 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:18,159 Speaker 1: Williams is huge. Okay, if you didn't hear those comments, 96 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,919 Speaker 1: the headline had to be, you know, Bruce Brown calls 97 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 1: out the Celtics. Here's Kevin Durant. Now he comes in 98 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,280 Speaker 1: after Bruce Brown. He hears about what Bruce Brown is 99 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: saying about the Celtics, and here is Kevin Durant. Yeah, 100 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: what did Bruce Brown saying? He said, somebody like somebody 101 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: just told me. All right, man, that's caffeine, probably talking 102 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 1: take someone before the game. They got the two dudes, 103 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: you can do the same stuff. I ain't gonna be 104 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: that easy, I tell you that. Okay. I don't think 105 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: what Brown said was inflammatory. I think it's how it's reported. 106 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 1: All he was saying is I mean, he gave you 107 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 1: sort of the scountering report. Can't let Tatum go off. 108 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 1: They don't have their best big man and they're a 109 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: little bit vulnerable in the pain burn that's burn. Yeah, wow, 110 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: really called him out there. I mean, who is he 111 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 1: to say that they can't let Jason Tatum score fifty? Yes, 112 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 1: Marv Kevin Durant smacking his teeth. That's the best part 113 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 1: about it. Yeah, uh, you know, because now it's bulletin 114 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 1: board material quote unquote. But I wonder how Durant the 115 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 1: message was relayed to Kevin Durant, like, oh man, you 116 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,280 Speaker 1: gotta hear what Brown said out there. What'd he say? 117 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:50,679 Speaker 1: He called out the Celtics, Yes, Todd, it wasn't trash 118 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 1: talking or anything. But I don't know if they reveal 119 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: the game plan as obvious as it might be, who 120 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,160 Speaker 1: they're gonna go after with Williams not in there and 121 00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,119 Speaker 1: I had more of a problem with he was getting 122 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: into details of Stoff. Who are they gonna go you 123 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 1: know that they can kind of go after another name. 124 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,359 Speaker 1: It's not like he was diagramming players. He just he 125 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: just said, um, I'm not even playing in the game. 126 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 1: And I would say, well, you can't let Tatum go 127 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: for fifty and they don't have their big man that 128 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: that helps us if we go in because they don't 129 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: have Williams. He's out Like that's I mean, that's not 130 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: crazy specific players to other guys that they're gonna go 131 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: go after. I kind of just want Todd to say, 132 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: everything is Gilbert God Freedom. Sorry, don't grindle up your opponents. 133 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: They're already motivated get out in me to give him 134 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: anything else? Yes, pause, Being the third best player on 135 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: the nets is like being the third man on the moon. 136 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: It's like nobody naturally knows who you are when they do. Now, 137 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 1: Bruce Brown, Bruce Brown, even his name is playing and 138 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: then I thought, oh my wait, is that the former Sixer, 139 00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: the head coach, Bruce Brown? And I thought, all right, 140 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: this guy's getting a little bit of publicity. Yes, even 141 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: when you google Bruce Brown's name.

It was the quickest playoff we've ever had. 169 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:13,319 Speaker 1: The last time the Timberwolves advanced to the playoffs was 170 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 1: two thousand and four. Social media hadn't even been invented yet, 171 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,679 Speaker 1: so you've only made one playoff in the last eighteen years. 172 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 1: I'm okay with them celebrating. I mean, okay, I look 173 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,199 Speaker 1: at it this way. It's a sliding scale. It's a 174 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 1: sliding scale. If we won the Sports Emmy after being 175 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 1: nominated this our fifth year in a row, then we 176 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 1: would celebrate. We celebrate when we get nominated. You know, 177 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: Bob Costas doesn't celebrate when he gets nominated. He's like, yeah, 178 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: hell yeah yeah. Sedon. Patrick Beverley was crying well because 179 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: he beat the Clippers. The Clippers kicked into the curb. 180 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: They sent him to Memphis. Then he ends up in Minnesota, 181 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 1: and you know, so he had a rivalry with them. 182 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 1: He was crying. I think if you hit, it was 183 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 1: his payback for the Clippers. So I get that that's 184 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: emotional for him because that used to be his team. Now, 185 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 1: does Patrick Beverly think a little more of himself than 186 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: he should? Yeah, but I understand that. You know, he 187 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: beat the Clippers. He was happy to send their rear 188 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 1: ends back to Los Angeles, as he said, He actually 189 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 1: said that to the bench. Yeah, Marv, is this like 190 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: North Carolina beating Duke? Like, look, we don't even care 191 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: if we lose a national title game. We beat the Clippers. Maybe, 192 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 1: well they I don't think Minnesota is thinking about playing 193 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 1: for a national championship, but they did. They kicked the 194 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 1: Clippers to the curb. They haven't celebrated in a while. 195 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: You know what, we don't celebrate enough in this world. 196 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: That's my New Year's resolution. It was to celebrate a 197 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 1: little more. This is a little celebration. It really was yours. Okay, 198 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 1: that was my New Year's solution, to celebrate a little more. 199 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: And you had players last night, teams last night that 200 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 1: celebrated just a little more. I don't think the Nets celebrated, 201 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: but Minnesota I understand it. I mean, those fans have 202 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,559 Speaker 1: waited for something to cheer for, and now you have 203 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: a pretty good nucleus there. Did they go overboard? Yeah, 204 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: but they haven't been in that situation before. Any of 205 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:28,199 Speaker 1: those players won anything before. And the answers no, I 206 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: don't even think in college they have. Patrick Beverley has 207 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 1: been there for like five months, I know, but he's 208 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: a former Clipper. How long has he been a former Clipper? 209 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 1: I get it, that's a couple of years. And once 210 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 1: again he got kicked to the curb. Yeah, Polly, I 211 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 1: think you're sliding scale works there because it's been so 212 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 1: long and you haven't done anything. They're having some fun. 213 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: They're young guys who who celebrate if they were thirty 214 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: three years old. A bunch of thirty three year olds 215 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 1: have been in the league a long time. They're not celebrating. 216 00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 1: I liked it. I mean it was we don't know 217 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,439 Speaker 1: the value of the play in games. You know, you're 218 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: sort of watching and it's like the first four in 219 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:09,319 Speaker 1: March Madness, where you go congratulations. And that's what I 220 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 1: thought last night. If Cleveland had beaten the Nets. That 221 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 1: would have been a really big deal for Cleveland and 222 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:23,679 Speaker 1: Minnesota getting the win against the Clippers. Celebrate, Yeah, celebrate. 223 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 1: You know you can't say act like you've been there 224 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: because they haven't been there before. So if they get 225 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 1: bounced out in the next round, Yeah, is this a 226 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 1: successful run for them? Yes? Yes, they made the playoffs. 227 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,440 Speaker 1: You know, it's it's a that's a good little nucleus 228 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 1: they have there. I mean, they had twenty three wins 229 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 1: last year. They have forty six this year. Celebrate, and 230 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: they've had that one moment with Kevin Garnett where they 231 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,959 Speaker 1: went to the Western Conference finals. Other than that haven't 232 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 1: celebrated too much. Yeah, Marv, should Minnesota start boarding up 233 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: their windows that they come even remotely to winning the 234 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:04,839 Speaker 1: first round playoff series? You know what, you might be 235 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 1: onto something there. Might have to batten down the hatches. 236 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,679 Speaker 1: There would be so funny as someone that, like the 237 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:15,839 Speaker 1: local businesses started doing, like the Delhi we're clothed, like, 238 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: what what's going on? Timberwolves? If they beat Memphis, all 239 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: bets are off Seaton? What's the pull question today? Well 240 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 1: he could go with the t Wolves. Well, what do 241 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: you want to what's the question you want to ask? 242 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 1: Was there celebration justified from Todd Fritz? Absolutely, it's only 243 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 1: the second playoff appearance in eighteen years. Or what do 244 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: you think it's a freaking playing game. I'm on the 245 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 1: Timberwolves website. There's no playing game champion T shirts anywhere. Hey, 246 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 1: they're sleeping. Did we make up Memphis Grizzlies Summer Summer League? 247 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: Summer League champion T shirts sold fast? Yes? We I 248 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 1: As you go down the hallway towards the big german, 249 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 1: that T shirt, he's there. We celebrated the Memphis Grizzlies. 250 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: So he celebrated small thing. We'll do a timberwol shirt 251 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 1: with a Timberwolves with a big W in the middle. 252 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,240 Speaker 1: The W is huge for win. All they do is 253 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 1: win playing games. What other pole questions do you have, Seaton, Well, 254 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 1: I was work shopping one based off of my breakfast 255 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 1: in that what is the most underrated flavor of bagel? 256 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 1: But oh no, no, we can't do that to Todd 257 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 1: because then we bring in the onion base. I do 258 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: get a little riled up. Yeah, but I am curious 259 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: where people think about that. There are many underrated bagels, 260 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: including Pumpernickel because I was having an Assessa me seed 261 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 1: bagel and I was like, dang, this is good. It 262 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 1: was real good. And then I've checked a list of 263 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: the ranking worst to best bagel flavors. Wait, we'll hold off, 264 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: hold off on that. All right, I gotta take a 265 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 1: break because I'm gonna keep people in their cars. After 266 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 1: the break. After the break, we're gonna Seaton will reveal 267 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 1: the worst to best bagel flavors. That's right, Oh my god, 268 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 1: that's that tease you never thought you'd make up. Gonna 269 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 1: be stunned.

My nephew listen to it, 288 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 1: loved it. Mike joins us Now, Mike, the number one 289 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,920 Speaker 1: story leading up to the draft is what well. I 290 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 1: think it's whether or to what extent quarterbacks are going 291 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 1: to be overdrafted. We had fewer available in free agency 292 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:14,880 Speaker 1: and trades for the teams out there that are desperate. 293 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 1: There are some teams, like the Panthers that can't convince 294 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 1: any veteran quarterbacks to come play for them, so the 295 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 1: only way to do it is involuntarily. With the sixth 296 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 1: overall pick. I love the fact that three of the 297 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 1: teams that try to get to Shaun Watson and obviously 298 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 1: didn't in the same division, Pans, Falcons Saints have two 299 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 1: picks between fifteen and twenty that they could package and 300 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:38,719 Speaker 1: try to cut the line in front of the Panthers 301 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,639 Speaker 1: at six, the Falcons at eight, and you hear for 302 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,119 Speaker 1: months this quarterback class isn't very good. Doesn't matter because 303 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 1: teams always need quarterbacks and this is one way to 304 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 1: get them, and because it's not as expensive as it 305 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 1: used to be, you can roll the dice. If it works, great, 306 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:55,680 Speaker 1: If it doesn't, you'll be back in position to draft 307 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,640 Speaker 1: another one soon enough. So whether or not teams take 308 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 1: quarterbacks who are maybe original prospects over great maybe edge 309 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 1: rushers or other players, that's what's going to fascinate me, 310 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: and quarterbacks are always the story in the NFL. Give 311 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: me the team though that they could change the entire 312 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 1: first round of the draft, Well, I think a team 313 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: that would decide to obviously trade down, a team in 314 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 1: the top five that has multiple picks and is looking 315 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 1: for like the Giants. I keep looking at the Giants 316 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 1: at five. They've got some heavy lifting to do. The 317 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,640 Speaker 1: best Giants teams in the past twenty years for teams 318 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:32,159 Speaker 1: that had great offensive lines and defensive lines, and the 319 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 1: failure of Dave gettm in the former GM to develop 320 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 1: the offensive line is the biggest reason why. He's the 321 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: former GM of the Giants. So you got Joe Shane 322 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: in there now, who's sitting there at five And I 323 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: mentioned earlier the Saints could try to trade up, they 324 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,879 Speaker 1: could keep sliding back stockpiling more lottery tickets. That's what 325 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 1: these are. They are unscratched lottery tickets. One of the 326 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:53,400 Speaker 1: points I'm making playmakers, and the more tickets you get, 327 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,359 Speaker 1: the more you scratch, the greater the chance you're going 328 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,200 Speaker 1: to get some winners. So the team that can shake 329 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: up the draft most is the team that finds the 330 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,720 Speaker 1: opportunity to trade down and get the most lottery tickets. 331 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 1: And then three four years from now, we say, hey boy, 332 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,480 Speaker 1: they had a hell of a draft back in twenty two. 333 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 1: When we're focused on the twenty twenty five draft, we're 334 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 1: going to realize potentially one of these teams really cashed 335 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 1: in this year. Summarize the latest scandal with the Washington Commanders. 336 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,440 Speaker 1: People could go to jail about that, and it took 337 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 1: a turn. We've seen it unfold over the past few days, 338 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: and I think one of the realities is with the 339 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:32,440 Speaker 1: Washington Commanders, there's been this drip, drip, drip, for the 340 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: past couple of years, and nothing ever happens, so we 341 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 1: think that each news story is just another drip that's 342 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: not going to cause anything to happen. Yesterday was different. 343 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:46,120 Speaker 1: Yesterday was a congressional committee referring to a federal agency 344 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 1: with copies to the attorneys general from three states with 345 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:54,640 Speaker 1: jurisdiction over the Washington Commanders, claims that the organization engaged 346 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 1: in two types of financial fraud. One that the team 347 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 1: shorted revenue that should have gone to the league for 348 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 1: distribution to all teams. That's troubling, and again these are allegations, 349 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 1: but they're made by somebody who worked for the team 350 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 1: for twenty four years. The other allegation, which could result 351 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 1: in criminal prosecution, the idea that they had a deliberate 352 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,919 Speaker 1: scam in place, again allegedly. I'm not looking to get 353 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 1: sued today or any day for that matter, but the 354 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 1: notion that they were keeping security deposits made by their 355 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:29,119 Speaker 1: best customers, the people who bought season tickets year in 356 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 1: and year out. No matter how crappy the team was, 357 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 1: they kept coming back, and there was supposedly some sort 358 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,399 Speaker 1: of a scam to keep their security deposits to make 359 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: it very difficult to get them back, so people just say, 360 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 1: screw it, I'm gonna quit trying. That to me is 361 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 1: the thing that could launch a prosecution, grand juries, indictments, 362 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 1: and you'll work your way up to the ladder until 363 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 1: you get to the very top, and all of a sudden, 364 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 1: Daniel Snyder has got a lot more to worry about 365 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 1: than losing his team. But they can't. The government can't 366 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 1: force him to sell. This would be in comment upon 367 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 1: the owners and the commissioner. Yes, at least twenty four 368 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 1: owners would be required to force him to sell. But 369 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 1: I think one of the reasons the league has been reluctant. 370 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 1: First of all, the league doesn't want to hold Daniel 371 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: Snyder to a standard that then would potentially apply to 372 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,959 Speaker 1: other owners. They're protecting the other owners in protecting him. 373 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 1: But I think they also don't want to get into 374 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 1: a fight with Snyder because he will fight and fight 375 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 1: and fight, and it will be ugly and it will 376 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 1: be nasty, and they'll be dirty laundry everywhere. But the 377 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:33,919 Speaker 1: league at this point may just simply step back, let 378 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 1: this thing play out. Let's see if there's prosecution, Let's 379 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 1: see if there's pressure placed on Daniel Snyder by others 380 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 1: to get out of this business. That may be the 381 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 1: easiest path out of this for the NFL and also 382 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: Dan from the league officers perspective. I suspect some other 383 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: owners are going to be asking some tough questions about 384 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 1: who was minding the store here. How is it that 385 00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,640 Speaker 1: Snyder was able to pull this off if it's true, 386 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,680 Speaker 1: If it's true that he was pushing money from NFL 387 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 1: events to other events at FedEx Field and reducing the 388 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,159 Speaker 1: amount of money that got properly shared with the NFL, 389 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 1: there's an argument to made that someone at the league 390 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 1: office should have been paying better attention to what was 391 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 1: going on and maybe figured this out before it hit 392 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: the fan. He's like Florio, pro Football Talk Live co 393 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 1: host and his new book, Playmakers, available online wherever books 394 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: are sold. Bill Belichick turned seventy. Now he's as involved 395 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: as any coach, and you start to look at when 396 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:34,679 Speaker 1: John Wooden stopped coaching, or Red Arbak when he stopped coaching. 397 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: Like Bill Belichick. This is now. Pete Carroll is at 398 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 1: the same age. But it feels like Belichick is not 399 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:45,639 Speaker 1: reducing his workload. It feels like he's been all in 400 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 1: not a figurehead like Paterno was or Bobby Bowden was 401 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 1: later in their careers. How do you explain this, Well, 402 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,400 Speaker 1: I mean, the guy lives for football. He loves football 403 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 1: is his identity. It is what he does. What else 404 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 1: would he do? What would you retire and go do? 405 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 1: It's where he gets his day in and day outsatisfaction. 406 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 1: Two points Stan. A few years ago, Robert Kraft, the 407 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 1: owner of the Patriots, told me at one of the 408 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 1: league meetings we had him on PFT Live. He wants 409 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,159 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick to keep coaching into his eighties. He invoked 410 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: names like Rupert Murdoch and Warren Buffett, people who have 411 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 1: shown that they can continue to function at a high 412 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 1: level beyond that eightieth birthday. But here's the difference, and 413 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 1: this is why George Hallis retired as coach of the 414 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: Bears in the mid sixties. He got to the point 415 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 1: where he just physically couldn't do it. There's a bad call, 416 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,400 Speaker 1: he's got a run twenty yards to yell at the official. 417 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 1: He can't do it anymore. He can't get there physically. 418 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:42,880 Speaker 1: That's the thing to watch is these coaches get older 419 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 1: and older, can they still move on the sideline like 420 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 1: they need to to actively and properly coach the game. 421 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:52,920 Speaker 1: And the guy that I watched and this amazes me. 422 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 1: I looked it up last week and I fell out 423 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,640 Speaker 1: of my chair. John Harbaugh is fifty nine. Chuck Noll 424 00:23:57,760 --> 00:23:59,719 Speaker 1: retired at the age of fifty nine and was never 425 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: heard from again. I think Harbaugh is going to be 426 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 1: going twenty years from now hardball at seventy is going 427 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 1: to be like a normal person at fifty. He's the 428 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 1: one that I think is going to out coach all 429 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: of them. And if anybody's got a chance to do 430 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,400 Speaker 1: it into their eighties, it's him. You were talking about 431 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:20,119 Speaker 1: the Packers wide receiver situation recently. How are they addressing 432 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 1: this to help Aaron Rodgers after losing Davantae Adams Well, 433 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,439 Speaker 1: Rogers said after the loss of the forty nine Ers, 434 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,360 Speaker 1: he doesn't want to be part of a rebuilding effort. Meanwhile, 435 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:33,679 Speaker 1: his receiver room has been blown to smithereens. When Randall 436 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,159 Speaker 1: Cobb is your number one guy in twenty twenty two, 437 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 1: you've got a problem. So what are they gonna do? Dan? 438 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,920 Speaker 1: Are they gonna go after Jarvis Landry or Julio Jones? 439 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: Free agents that are available. Maybe I don't know, are 440 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: they going to try to trade for someone. I think 441 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 1: they should try to trade for Chase Claypool, frankly, because 442 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 1: he doesn't need to be paid right now and I 443 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: don't think he's going to be happy in Pittsburgh with 444 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: Mitchell Truebiski as the starting quarterback. Or do you draft someone? 445 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,160 Speaker 1: Do you use a first round pick, second round pick? 446 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,879 Speaker 1: And I think what they should do they should involve 447 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers very closely in the scouting of these receivers. 448 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 1: He made it clear that he resents the idea that 449 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: they just act like, hey, you just work here, we'll 450 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,000 Speaker 1: take care of the big decisions. Get him involved, have 451 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: him watched film, get his input, get him to buy 452 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: in to whoever it is they draft, so he's invested 453 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 1: in getting that guy up to speed. They don't have 454 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:23,919 Speaker 1: a number one receiver. They won't have a number one 455 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 1: receiver unless they do something. And if they go the 456 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 1: route of the draft, it's on Rogers to trust that 457 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:30,679 Speaker 1: guy quickly. And if he's not going to be there 458 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,440 Speaker 1: for the offseason program, and that's his prerogative, it puts 459 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:36,439 Speaker 1: more pressure on everyone during training camp to get that rookie. 460 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 1: If it is a rookie that they go with up 461 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 1: to speed ASAFP and then what's happening with the Seahawks 462 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 1: with I don't know if Dk Metcalf is available, Tyler 463 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,720 Speaker 1: Locket's available, that that's not going to bode well for 464 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:54,200 Speaker 1: whoever's the quarterback in Seattle if you're shopping those guys 465 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 1: once you trade Russell Wilson. And remember they said they 466 00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 1: had no intention to trade Russell Wilson, and then they trade. 467 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 1: And so when they say they have every intention of 468 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: keeping Dk Metcalf, I assume that means he's out next two. 469 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: But there's a fascinating dynamic in the NFL right now. 470 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 1: You've got teams that are willing to give up major 471 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 1: money and draft picks for established receivers. You've got other 472 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,360 Speaker 1: teams it'll say, hey, there's plenty of great receivers coming 473 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: out every year. We'll take your draft picks like the 474 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 1: Chiefs did. We'll take your draft picks. We'll gladly get 475 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: rid of this burden of having to pay Tyreek Hill 476 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 1: twenty seven twenty eight million a year. We'll just start 477 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 1: from scratch. So where are the Seahawks right now? As 478 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,119 Speaker 1: they're rebuilding. Can you really get the most out of 479 00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 1: DK Metcalf, that's really the question. And Sims and I 480 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,439 Speaker 1: talk about this all the time. They don't use him 481 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 1: like they could, like he could be Deebo Samuel in 482 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 1: that offense. The guy's a superhero, but they don't get 483 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: the ball in his hands as often as they need to. 484 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 1: So if you're not going to use him, trade him 485 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 1: to a team that will take the draft picks and 486 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 1: hope that you can create the same magic you had 487 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: ten years ago when you built through the draft and 488 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,360 Speaker 1: before you know it, you had a super Bowl team. Yeah, 489 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 1: that's why. And the Russell Wilson situation was ongoing, and 490 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 1: I had heard they're privately quietly shopping Russell Wilson. So 491 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 1: anytime Pete Carroll would say no, we have no intention 492 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 1: of trading, and Russ said all the right things, Hey, 493 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:15,879 Speaker 1: this is where I want to be. Meanwhile, they were 494 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 1: trying to see what's the best deal they can get 495 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,680 Speaker 1: and they're probably doing that with DK Metcalf right now. 496 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 1: You have to because if you're not going to pay him, 497 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: and we see where the receiver market is going, and 498 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,120 Speaker 1: the longer you wait, the more expensive it's going to get. 499 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 1: If you're not going to do it, then why not 500 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:35,119 Speaker 1: make the move now, maximize your value and see what happens. 501 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,639 Speaker 1: Now they reportedly aren't listening, But as we get closer 502 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: to the draft, I think that's when the action may 503 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: happen and there are teams out there that are willing 504 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,479 Speaker 1: to make that move, give up the picks, give up 505 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 1: the money to have that high end receiver. And the 506 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,959 Speaker 1: Seahawks are not in that mode right now. They are 507 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 1: clearly in tear it down and rebuild it. So why 508 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 1: not get what you can for a guy that you're 509 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 1: not going to get the most out of. Thank you, Mike, 510 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: great to talk to you, and congrats on the success 511 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 1: of playmakers. Thanks to appreciate your power. It's available wherever 512 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 1: books are sold and online. Remember it was almost a 513 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:11,400 Speaker 1: year ago when we're watching the draft and Adam Schefter 514 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 1: comes on Sports Center and starts talking about possibility that 515 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is going to be traded Draft morning, and 516 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:22,960 Speaker 1: I went, wait, is this news? And then we eventually 517 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 1: had Adam on and I said, look what you reported 518 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 1: was not news, and he said it was a collection 519 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: of information and that there wasn't any I thought that 520 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 1: there was fire attached to the smoke. But we thought 521 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: this is a foregone conclusion. He's going to get traded 522 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 1: before the draft, and then, of course it obviously didn't happen. Yeah, Paul, 523 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 1: that story broke at one pm Eastern NFL Draft Day, 524 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 1: which is maybe the biggest NFL day of the year 525 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 1: for all teams, evolved. Well, I had been told that 526 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 1: there Paul Allen, who does a radio show. He's the boy. 527 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 1: So the vikings had brought up, you know, the possibility 528 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: that Aaron Rodgers could be traded. I believe. I want 529 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 1: to make sure I got this correct. I got the 530 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 1: feeling that Cheft he thought he was going to be 531 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 1: scooped on one of the biggest stories that Aaron Rodgers 532 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 1: might be traded, and then I think he kind of 533 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 1: cobbled together some things and then look, Schefter came on 534 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 1: and did answer my questions. It was a sort of 535 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: a firing squad there, because I said there was no 536 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 1: news there. Yeah, Paully, And an hour later, at two 537 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: pm Eastern NFL that his draft day. Last year, Tom 538 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 1: Pelisar at NFL Network reported that the forty nine ers 539 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 1: who had the third pick called green Band Wednesday, the 540 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 1: day before the draft, to inquire about Rogers availability. So 541 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 1: that just stoked up the story even more. Yeah, it 542 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 1: was wild because you're watching the draft, You're thinking, all right, 543 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:50,240 Speaker 1: are they going to trade him? And who is gonna 544 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 1: give up picks? Yeah, Paully had the draft going on. 545 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 1: I'm calling these stories up right now. Well, I think 546 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 1: the fifty the Broncos had the seventh pick of the draft, 547 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 1: ninth pick somewhere around there. Ninth pick, sound right. A 548 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:03,800 Speaker 1: lot of people thought that the Broncos were going to 549 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 1: make the trade right there and then during the drafting 550 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 1: get Rogers. Mark Schlaris reported that he was hearing that 551 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 1: that was discussion and he knows the Broncos, but it 552 00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 1: didn't happen. I think they took a defensive Patrick Surtian. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 553 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 1: the whole going to Denver. And look, I was wrong 554 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 1: on it because I was told by a source when 555 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 1: they traded von Miller, and my source said, you know, 556 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 1: here's the deal. Green Bay wants picks, they don't want players, 557 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 1: and Denver is gearing up to trade picks to get 558 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,960 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. That was when von Miller was traded, and 559 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 1: my source stayed with that and he said, I absolutely 560 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 1: positively believe this and I think it's going to happen. Yeah. 561 00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 1: Point going back to the draft again. Last year, the 562 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 1: ninth pick Denver was on the clock, and when they 563 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 1: didn't take a quarterback, when they didn't take Justin Fields 564 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 1: at Ohio State, it stoked it up even more. They're 565 00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: not taking quarterback play because they're getting Aaron Rodgers tonight. 566 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 1: That was their instant reaction. Yeah. Uh, Nathan in La Hey, Nate, 567 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: what's on your mind today? Hey? Dan, good to talk 568 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 1: to you. A couple questions. I'll go through the real quickly. 569 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: Number one, do you think it will literally take an 570 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 1: act of Congress to get Daniel Snyder out of his position? Um? 571 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: I don't. I think that it could put pressure on 572 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: the NFL to take him out of that or vote 573 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 1: to take him out of that, but I don't. I 574 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,920 Speaker 1: don't think an act of Congress will. They can't force 575 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 1: him to sell. Right. And the other question so slightly 576 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 1: off topic. H you Shart. I'm sure you heard about 577 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 1: Alyssa kin Makin, who did base coaching for Sancia. Yeah, 578 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 1: what are your thoughts on that? I'd love to hear 579 00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: more about her. If you know about her, it's awesome. 580 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 1: Like it's not as big as a deal. And I 581 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: think that says a lot about us now that we're 582 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 1: kind of getting used to these things, and now you 583 00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 1: might have people say, Hey, nobody's making a big deal 584 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 1: about you know, a woman out there is a base coach. 585 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 1: You know, that's the way it should be. I mean 586 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: that's the way I viewed it, like, good, if you 587 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 1: know baseball, great, well, she probably has forgotten more baseball 588 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: than I know. But I'm fine with that. It's not 589 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 1: like I go, you know, it's like when women we're 590 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 1: going to be brought in to be referees in the NBA, 591 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:27,200 Speaker 1: and people are like, oh, let's see what happens when 592 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 1: Shack says something to you. When's the last time you 593 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 1: notice that there was a female referee in the NBA. 594 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 1: You just get to the point where you go, yes, good, 595 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 1: fine with that. I mean she can make bad calls 596 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 1: just like a guy can. I mean, if I'm fine 597 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 1: with that, you just look at them as that's the 598 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 1: that's the referee, that's the official.

It's always 611 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 1: a better day when I see Chris Haynes, Senior NBA 612 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 1: insider for y'all, Who's sports Chris? We just stumbled upon something. 613 00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 1: We were talking during the commercial break, the greatest, most talented, 614 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 1: most talented? How about most skilled duo of all time? 615 00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 1: Most skilled? Where would kd and Kyrie rank on your list? 616 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 1: That's a good question, DP, and thanks for having me 617 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 1: back man. We're talking about the best skilled duo. It's 618 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:13,840 Speaker 1: hard to look anywhere else aside from Kadi and Kyrie 619 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 1: because those guys. You know, when you talk about one 620 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 1: on one isolation basketball, being able to get their own shot, 621 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 1: create off the dribble, posts, whatever, those two can do 622 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 1: it all. So even if you're talking about Michael Jordan's 623 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:31,359 Speaker 1: Scottie Pippen, I don't know even Lebron Kyrie that dudeo 624 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:35,840 Speaker 1: Lebron Dwayne Wade skill, It would be hard for me 625 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 1: to argue against Kadie and Kyrie. Um what if well 626 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 1: Curry and kad playing together at Golden State, m Magic 627 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 1: and Kareem from a skilled position. No, I'm still I'm 628 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,320 Speaker 1: still rocking with with Kadi and Kyrie. I mean, Steph 629 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 1: as great as Steph is, like he can't get his 630 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:57,440 Speaker 1: own basket like Kyrie can. So that's why we talk 631 00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 1: about skill, and that's and that's different. You know you're 632 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 1: talking about what's the best duo, then we could have 633 00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:05,719 Speaker 1: a different conversation. But when you're talking skill set, you know, 634 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 1: just pure putting the ball on the ground, being able 635 00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 1: to do whatever you want to do with it, Like 636 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:14,560 Speaker 1: nobody can do what KD and Kyrie can do. But 637 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,759 Speaker 1: best duo, that's a different conversation. Any problem with how 638 00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:24,799 Speaker 1: Minnesota celebrated last night beating. I was a little surprised, 639 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 1: but then you know, you remember, you know, they haven't 640 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 1: been in the playoffs in the way I forgot to 641 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 1: drought that they broke getting to the postseason two thousand 642 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 1: and four. So yeah, I'll get I'll give it to him. 643 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:39,279 Speaker 1: And this is a this is a relatively young team too, 644 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 1: so I've given them that. I don't think anybody expected 645 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 1: Minnesota to make this leap this year, so I'll you know, 646 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 1: I didn't really have a problem with it. I was surprised, 647 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 1: but you know, then Pat bab going against his former team, 648 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:53,600 Speaker 1: you know, he's going to bring all the attics and uh, 649 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,879 Speaker 1: the emotions into the to the game. So it was fun. 650 00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:00,200 Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to it. I actually that's that's my 651 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,000 Speaker 1: assignment for T and T on the sidelines for the 652 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 1: first round. I got that Minnesota Memphis series. Okay, I'm 653 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 1: looking forward to it. Um, what's your assessment of Memphis. 654 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,959 Speaker 1: They're a really fun team to watch. They play really hard. 655 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:18,200 Speaker 1: I had job around on my podcast a couple of 656 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 1: days ago. It's gonna drop sometime this week, but you know, 657 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 1: it's a college atmosphere. That's the best way I would 658 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:27,239 Speaker 1: explain it. You know, you see after the games when 659 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:30,319 Speaker 1: somebody would talk to the I guess the star player 660 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:32,480 Speaker 1: of that game, and then you see the whole teams 661 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:36,399 Speaker 1: just huddle around, just celebrate like it's a really tight 662 00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,360 Speaker 1: knit group and they're fun to watch. And you know 663 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:42,400 Speaker 1: John Morant, you know, he's a rising starters league. So 664 00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:45,960 Speaker 1: I'm I'm interested in looking forward to seeing if that 665 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:47,719 Speaker 1: style of play, what they've been able to do in 666 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:49,960 Speaker 1: the regular season is going to be able to translate 667 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,839 Speaker 1: into the postseason. John says they're ready, so we'll see. 668 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,960 Speaker 1: But they had a great record without jaw on the lineup, 669 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 1: and I said, well, there's two ways to look at this. 670 00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 1: That maybe he's that'll hurt his mv P chances, but 671 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 1: also it should make you focus on the talent that 672 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:09,040 Speaker 1: Memphis has because it's not just John Morant. And if 673 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 1: you watch them, they have a deep team at both ends. 674 00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 1: They play hard. And did John talk up did you 675 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:21,279 Speaker 1: address the team's success without him in the lineup. Yeah, 676 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,720 Speaker 1: he said, they're a deep team. Man. He created Desmond Bains, 677 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 1: who he said, who we believe should win the Most 678 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:30,320 Speaker 1: Improved Player Award. He also said he should be in 679 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,759 Speaker 1: the running as well, because I asked him about that, like, 680 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:36,880 Speaker 1: does a star player, somebody who we consider to be 681 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 1: a budding star, should they be in the in the 682 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:41,839 Speaker 1: running for most improved? He said, yeah, because I feel 683 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 1: like I did improve from last year. But he said 684 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:46,400 Speaker 1: he gives that on a desmon Bain. But look, Dylan 685 00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 1: Brooks one of the best two way players we have 686 00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 1: in this game who has an edge. And I'm looking 687 00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 1: forward to seeing Dylan Brooks Patrick Beverley because I think 688 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,319 Speaker 1: it's going to be a point at two where those 689 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 1: two are going to get into it. But it's a 690 00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:01,759 Speaker 1: deep team and not at the household names, but they're 691 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:05,279 Speaker 1: really well coached by coach Jenkins, and so I'm, like 692 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 1: I said, I'm interested in seeing if they had that poise. 693 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 1: They had that poise because that's what's going to get 694 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:13,600 Speaker 1: you through come playoff time. Talking to Chris Haynes, senior 695 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 1: NBA insider young who's sports he is a sideline reporter 696 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:21,279 Speaker 1: for TNT as well, where did the Lakers go from here? 697 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:26,319 Speaker 1: Starting with the coach that they bring in DP That's 698 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 1: a good question, you know, obviously, you know Rob Polinka 699 00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 1: said in this the exit interview that they want a 700 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:37,359 Speaker 1: coach that has a voice, meaning they want somebody who's 701 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 1: going to command the respect of Lebron James and Anthony Davis. 702 00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 1: And I've been covering Lebron James for nearly a decade. 703 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 1: I was the beat writer in Cleveland when he was there, 704 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:51,600 Speaker 1: And I remember when when they hired David Black, and 705 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 1: David Black came with all these accolades over there overseas, 706 00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 1: and he felt like that would translate over here as 707 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:02,200 Speaker 1: far as respect. And I saw the way Lebron looked 708 00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 1: at David Black and how he was treated with that team. 709 00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:08,319 Speaker 1: So it's going to take a figure like that who 710 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,799 Speaker 1: has some cash set now who's out there. I think 711 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:15,400 Speaker 1: it ultimately is going to depend dp on some of 712 00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:18,080 Speaker 1: the teams that still left. What do they do meaning 713 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 1: Philadelphia seventy six ers, do they sputter in the playoffs? 714 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,440 Speaker 1: And if they do, is Doc Rivers job on the line. 715 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 1: Same situation with Utah Jazz Quinn Snyder. So it's gonna 716 00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:30,839 Speaker 1: take I think if they're gonna have to wait into 717 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:34,800 Speaker 1: the field plays itself out to see ultimately the candidates 718 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:37,359 Speaker 1: that they really do have, and then somebody I gotta 719 00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,239 Speaker 1: throw in Mark Jackson. I think he deserves a shot. 720 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: I think he'll be somebody to be looked at and evaluated. Also, 721 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:47,319 Speaker 1: somebody can look at in the house Phil Handy, who 722 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:49,439 Speaker 1: is people look at him as one of the best 723 00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:53,439 Speaker 1: or arguably the best skill development coach, but he wants 724 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:55,919 Speaker 1: to be a head coaching league. He's somebody who I've 725 00:39:56,000 --> 00:40:00,759 Speaker 1: seen go at cuss out Lebron, James A. Davis. He 726 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:04,040 Speaker 1: has the respect that group, that that that duos, So 727 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:06,759 Speaker 1: you know, they can go on multitude of ways, but ultimately, man, 728 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,520 Speaker 1: it's gonna take somebody that hass Cachet from day one 729 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 1: because they're trying to win championship now. But when is 730 00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 1: Lebron respected his coach TP, don't throw that out there, DP, 731 00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 1: don't do that. He's respected his Look, he respected. He 732 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:25,600 Speaker 1: respected ty Lou for sure. And if we want to 733 00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,040 Speaker 1: look at if we want to look at some blunders, 734 00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 1: we could talk about blunders that the liquors made in 735 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 1: this past off season. Well let's talk about the blunder 736 00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 1: and not bringing over ty Loop because that would have 737 00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:39,360 Speaker 1: been the ultimate god, the ultimate candidate. They brought it. 738 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 1: They try to hire Tylu, but they wanted to give 739 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,920 Speaker 1: him the same contract as Luke Walton. Well, tyl Lou 740 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,759 Speaker 1: as a championship coach, he can't do that. That's disrespectful. 741 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 1: And they didn't allow Tyron Lou to hire his full staff, 742 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:54,719 Speaker 1: which is a no noe when you're trying to bring 743 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,120 Speaker 1: in a top level coach. And so we see what 744 00:40:57,239 --> 00:40:59,160 Speaker 1: Tyler was doing with the Clippers, So that would have 745 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:02,279 Speaker 1: been that would have been the prime target right there, 746 00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:06,320 Speaker 1: but they messed that up. I love Montie Williams. I 747 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,360 Speaker 1: think that you know, when coaches turned down the Lakers, 748 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 1: that to me is interesting. And you know you're gonna 749 00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:18,759 Speaker 1: walk into year twenty for Lebron. You got Russell Westbrook 750 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:22,080 Speaker 1: and you're not sure what you have with Anthony Davis 751 00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:25,360 Speaker 1: kind of night in, night out, weekend, week out, month in, 752 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:29,759 Speaker 1: month out. How attractive is that Laker job? Well, I 753 00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 1: will say this, obviously, it's a prime situation for any 754 00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:37,759 Speaker 1: coach to take over, but Money Williams ain't taking that job. 755 00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 1: That there's too much going on right now, and I 756 00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:44,080 Speaker 1: know the Laquers want to dismiss these past couple of weeks, 757 00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 1: how things were handled, how Frank Vogel was you know, 758 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:52,120 Speaker 1: initially fired on Twitter before he got the official word. Like, 759 00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:54,680 Speaker 1: so nobody wants to go in go into that situation. 760 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:57,759 Speaker 1: Nobody dying to get into that situation. But it is 761 00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:02,719 Speaker 1: a prime destination marquee players. And so with that being said, 762 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:05,440 Speaker 1: Monty Willias, I don't see that at all. I think 763 00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:08,279 Speaker 1: that would be a pipe dream. But there there will 764 00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:11,520 Speaker 1: be suitors right there. And you mentioned Russell Westbrook VP. 765 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:14,320 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's seen his exit interview, but 766 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 1: he went in should choosing violence. You know, he set 767 00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:19,920 Speaker 1: the place on fire before he walked out. You know, 768 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:24,239 Speaker 1: you see those He's in denial, Chris, He's in denial. 769 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:27,880 Speaker 1: That may be the case, DP, but he was like, 770 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:31,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go out in denial. But he said, hey, 771 00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:33,879 Speaker 1: I didn't get a chance to really be myself there. 772 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:36,719 Speaker 1: He played in more games, played in more minutes than 773 00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:39,759 Speaker 1: anybody on the Lakers team. Like, what did you want 774 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:46,439 Speaker 1: to show us besides airballs and turnovers? I mean, come on, DP, 775 00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:50,759 Speaker 1: I'm not condoning what he said. I'm not approving it. 776 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:53,400 Speaker 1: All I'm saying is he went in there with an 777 00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,799 Speaker 1: agenda that I'm setting a place on fire and I'm 778 00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 1: walking away. You know, you see those movies. Then he 779 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:01,080 Speaker 1: set something on fire. You kind of walk away and 780 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 1: slow mode with the asses and everything in the back. 781 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 1: That's what Russ did. Yeah, but where's he going though, Chris, 782 00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:11,759 Speaker 1: He's not going anywhere? Is he? Hell has? Well? Look, 783 00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:14,920 Speaker 1: I can't see a scenario he's gonna opt in for 784 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 1: forty seven million dollars and then the liquers have a 785 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:20,640 Speaker 1: big decision to make. Do you trade him, which you 786 00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 1: will be able to do so you might not get 787 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:26,280 Speaker 1: the best deal back in return, but you can trade him. Also, 788 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:28,480 Speaker 1: they still had that stretch pro vision, but they can 789 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:30,879 Speaker 1: wave and stretch the salary over a period of years, 790 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 1: so they have options. Like Look, we didn't think Russ 791 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 1: was coming back even before that exit interview. Now that 792 00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:41,120 Speaker 1: he let the left the place on fire, come on, now, 793 00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:43,799 Speaker 1: just don't see it happening. Yeah, but it was really 794 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,319 Speaker 1: about him and Frank Vogel not connecting. And I'm sure 795 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:49,520 Speaker 1: Vogel didn't want Russell Westbrook, but he had to take 796 00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 1: him because see, I just don't know how much power 797 00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:54,600 Speaker 1: Lebron has. He either has a lot or he doesn't 798 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:58,280 Speaker 1: have any, because he's being portrayed as well. He wanted 799 00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:03,120 Speaker 1: Russ and so they decided to bring in Russ. If 800 00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:07,440 Speaker 1: he wanted ty Lou, then they should have gotten Tylu 801 00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:10,480 Speaker 1: for him. Yeah. I agree to there. But what I 802 00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 1: kind of disagree with you. I partially disagree with you 803 00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:15,480 Speaker 1: on DP is that it was a Frank Vogel thing 804 00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 1: because I think if you look at his response as 805 00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:21,920 Speaker 1: his answer of talking about Westbrook, like people say, you know, 806 00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 1: he didn't take accountability, he was still like, it wasn't 807 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,480 Speaker 1: my fault, it wasn't my problem. And so if you 808 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:30,320 Speaker 1: still have that mindset, that's going to carry on with 809 00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:33,120 Speaker 1: any other coach, because you're still going to if he 810 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:36,080 Speaker 1: comes back, he's still going to be the third option. 811 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:38,399 Speaker 1: And he just did not perform well. So I think 812 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:41,440 Speaker 1: it goes deeper than him and Frank Vogel. I think 813 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:44,480 Speaker 1: him going on there saying that, look, I didn't have 814 00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:47,800 Speaker 1: a fair chance. I wasn't able to be myself. I 815 00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:51,279 Speaker 1: think that's a deeper issue than the Frank Vogel issue. Well, 816 00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 1: and I don't know if the media said, well what 817 00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 1: is yourself? Is that the guy who was in Washington 818 00:44:57,280 --> 00:44:58,960 Speaker 1: with the Wizards, Is that the guy who was in 819 00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:01,600 Speaker 1: Houston is the guy who still thinks he can play 820 00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:04,480 Speaker 1: like he did in Oklahoma City. That's why I think 821 00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:06,600 Speaker 1: Russ is in denial. He's thirty four. He's not going 822 00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:09,759 Speaker 1: to change. And it's not like Kevin Love with the 823 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:13,000 Speaker 1: Cavaliers as the third person or Chris Bosh with the 824 00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 1: Heat is the third person. I don't think Russ goes man, 825 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:19,839 Speaker 1: I'm the third person. I don't think he plays that way. Yeah. 826 00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,920 Speaker 1: I think what he wants is to have control of 827 00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,840 Speaker 1: the ball. He wants to be able to play himself, 828 00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 1: which means like get the rebound, go up and make 829 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:31,239 Speaker 1: a play and make plays happen. Now, the problem with 830 00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:33,040 Speaker 1: that is if you look at the first couple of 831 00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:35,719 Speaker 1: months of the season, they kind of allowed Russ to 832 00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 1: try to play his way, but the turnovers kept mounting, 833 00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:42,399 Speaker 1: and you know, we saw the shot selections and then 834 00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:44,719 Speaker 1: then he started getting taken off the ball and so 835 00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:47,359 Speaker 1: that's that's when things kind of went out right there. 836 00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:49,800 Speaker 1: So they tried it. I don't think Russ felt like 837 00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,879 Speaker 1: they gave it a long enough shot. Talking to Chris Haynes, 838 00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:58,080 Speaker 1: senior NBA insider for Yall, Who's sports Steph Curry good 839 00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:03,759 Speaker 1: to go. I think I think he'll I think he'll 840 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:05,440 Speaker 1: give it a goal. DP. I think he'll give it 841 00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:08,120 Speaker 1: a goal. He's been progressing well. I talked to people 842 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:10,680 Speaker 1: with the Warriors. They've liked how he looked up to 843 00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:14,480 Speaker 1: this point. Hasn't done anything rigorous, But you know, if 844 00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:17,000 Speaker 1: you know he's going to eat, it would be hard 845 00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:19,520 Speaker 1: for me to imagine the game one him not suiting 846 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 1: up for the Warriors in the playoffs. I think he'll 847 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:23,800 Speaker 1: be able to go and Luca with a calf muscle 848 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:27,440 Speaker 1: is it's a little tricky. Yeah, that's a little trickier 849 00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:30,440 Speaker 1: right there. Obviously I can't get a good read on that. 850 00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:32,680 Speaker 1: There's people are in the organization that don't have a 851 00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:34,960 Speaker 1: good read on that. So it's really going to be 852 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:38,759 Speaker 1: probably a game time decision with him. Always great to 853 00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:42,439 Speaker 1: talk to you, Chris. Have fun in the playoffs, DP, 854 00:46:42,560 --> 00:46:44,240 Speaker 1: you take care of but it. And that's Chris Haynes 855 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:47,919 Speaker 1: joining us on loan from Yahoo Sports. He'll be roaming 856 00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:53,840 Speaker 1: the sidelines for TNT. Back in twenty seventeen. Twenty eighteen, 857 00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:56,719 Speaker 1: Steph Curry had the knee injury and he didn't play 858 00:46:56,719 --> 00:46:59,920 Speaker 1: in the first six playoff games. They went five and one. 859 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:03,000 Speaker 1: They came back and they won the NBA title, but 860 00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:07,040 Speaker 1: that's when you had Durant play Draymond and Andrea Gudala. 861 00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:09,479 Speaker 1: So it's a little bit different. If you can hold 862 00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:12,359 Speaker 1: out Steph for a couple of games, if you need 863 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 1: to a couple of phone calls in here, Mac, in La, Hi, Mac, 864 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:23,400 Speaker 1: what's on your mind today?

Yeah. Seton. The best part of that 883 00:48:44,080 --> 00:48:46,800 Speaker 1: Sugar Night speech, though, is that he flubs his line 884 00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:49,120 Speaker 1: and still tries to get through it.

That's the best suggestion, though it might 897 00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:34,879 Speaker 1: be the worst one. Okay, it might be the worst one.
