40
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 1: every single day means a lot to us. So I

41
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 1: want to make sure I echo that as well. All right,

42
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 1: And we got some serious stuff going on, some serious

43
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 1: allegations with one Pooka Nakua who. It's been about a

44
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,079
Speaker 1: year now where a couple of things have happened with him,

45
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 1: and if you're the Rams, you gotta be like, here

46
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:11,679
Speaker 1: we go again.

47
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:14,639
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a really tough scene if you are a Ram.

48
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 5: So if you're a football fan in general, it's not

49
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 5: looking good. In case you missed it, it's been reported

50
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 5: now that Pooka Nakua at a night out with friends

51
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 5: drops some anti Semitic comments to a group of people,

52
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 5: and later that evening in a sprinter van bit one

53
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 5: of the women he was with so hard that it

54
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 5: left the teeth mark. Now she is suing him, and

55
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,359
Speaker 5: you know, police are currently investigating the matter. We don't

56
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,640
Speaker 5: know what's going to come of it. More than likely nothing.

57
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,399
Speaker 5: It's just one of those things where he said she said,

58
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 5: actually no, correct, I'm wrong there. His lawyers have not

59
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,519
Speaker 5: denied the bite part. They're denying the anti Semitic part.

60
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 5: So that's making that of what you will. But in

61
00:02:55,480 --> 00:03:00,559
Speaker 5: any event, you mentioned this has been an ongoing problem

62
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 5: for Puka go over about a year now, right, So

63
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 5: we talk about this situation. Bites a woman allegedly says

64
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 5: f the Jews. That's one number two. He gets wasted

65
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 5: after well, which people do, and he makes fun of

66
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:16,359
Speaker 5: Sam Donald on Twitter.

67
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 4: Whatever it is, what it is, they're competitor. Not a

68
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 4: big deal, right.

69
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 5: Number three goes on a live stream with Aiden Ross

70
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 5: and agrees to do an anti semitic touchdown dance, and

71
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 5: he claimed afterwards he didn't know what that went. He

72
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,080
Speaker 5: tried to play ignorant of the whole thing, but that happened.

73
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 5: Number four goes on another live stream and criticized the

74
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 5: NFL res for saying they make calls just to tell

75
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 5: their friends that they made it on television, so suggesting

76
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 5: that these guys are on the take and they're just

77
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 5: regular people.

78
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 4: They're not actually being officials. Here's another one.

79
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 5: Goes on another live stream, Guy Love live streams says

80
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 5: that the Chiefs only missed the playoffs because of the

81
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 5: Taylor Swift curse. Now that's not a big deal, but

82
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 5: it's just another thing to add to the list. Now, guys,

83
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 5: you stack all this up and it starts to become

84
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 5: a problem. Right, And here's the other thing you gotta consider.

85
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 5: Pook g Nacoua is entering the last season of his

86
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 5: rookie deal. He is eligible for a contract extension, the

87
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 5: expectation will be somewhere between forty and forty.

88
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 4: Five million dollars.

89
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 5: If you are the Los Angeles Rams, knowing what you

90
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 5: know now and seeing that when he plays he's awesome,

91
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 5: but off the field there seems to be.

92
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,720
Speaker 4: Some issues you gotta stream out here. Do you still

93
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 4: give him that massive deal?

94
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 1: I have massive reservations from and I'll tell you why.

95
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 1: When you start to make with decisions and start to

96
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,720
Speaker 1: make financial decisions, you have to think long term, right

97
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 1: and is this person going to be That was a mistake.

98
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: You're in the building, you know the person's character. They

99
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 1: stuck by him last time, even they said we know

100
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 1: his character, we know he is. This was a stake

101
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 1: he did. As Rob g mentioned, he didn't know that

102
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 1: hand gesture, and a lot of people came out during

103
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 1: that time of social media didn't know it either. I

104
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: didn't know it either. I Wan I didn't know.

105
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 3: So maybe you want to give him the benefit of

106
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:56,919
Speaker 3: the doubt with that.

107
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,159
Speaker 1: But once you start getting into violence, specific violence against women,

108
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 1: you start getting into repeated behavior of all you're making

109
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 1: allegedly have you on allegedly anti Semitic points again, you

110
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 1: keep going on social media and saying and doing dumb things.

111
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 3: Now, my concern is about your judgment.

112
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 1: Now, my concern is about what he really do once

113
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,040
Speaker 1: he gets the super bag. And so I'm very concerning

114
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 1: what we're gonna find out if is there are the

115
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 1: Rams trying to separate themselves as a as a as

116
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 1: a world class organization that is always competitive, that's won

117
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 1: a couple of Super Bowls or won of Super Bowl

118
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 1: been to a couple I should say, is always right

119
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 1: there in the mix, and it's handling themselves in a

120
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 1: different type of business. Or they're going to be like

121
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,039
Speaker 1: most NFL teams who turn the blind eye to stuff,

122
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: who don't really care because dangan, if you got some talent,

123
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: come on over. You can throw a ball, Come on over,

124
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 1: you can catch a ball, Come on over, you can

125
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:53,119
Speaker 1: go sack the dude with the ball.

126
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 3: Come on over.

127
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I think of guys that Greg Hardy, You

128
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:58,919
Speaker 1: think of guys. You know, we've had instances where we

129
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,360
Speaker 1: know with all this stuff, that Sean Watson, We've had

130
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: other guys. We talk about the Tyreek Hill, we talk

131
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,479
Speaker 1: about Rashid Rice. We'll have to see what happens with that.

132
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 1: But my point is. I think there's a line between

133
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 1: offering grace. We all make mistakes. We sometimes forget these

134
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,720
Speaker 1: guys are young, twenty three, four or five, and then oh,

135
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: this might be more aligned with who you are, and

136
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,279
Speaker 1: I might want to cut bait. So I'm gonna be

137
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 1: interested to see if the Rams are just kind of

138
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: the status quo of professional teams, especially in football, where

139
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 1: as long as you're good, in this case, he's very

140
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:32,040
Speaker 1: very good, we'll turn a blind eye or they gonna

141
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 1: say no, man, we're trying to go somewhere. We're trying

142
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 1: to make things happen, and we don't want to keep

143
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: having these repeated issues with you and again, especially when

144
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 1: it comes to something like violence against women.

145
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 3: So I'm gonna keep an eye on that.

146
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,840
Speaker 1: As far as giving him extension, I'm not giving you

147
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 1: an extension right now.

148
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:47,280
Speaker 3: I take this very seriously.

149
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: I don't want to give money to somebody that ultimately

150
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: is gonna be missing games, might be suspended for a season,

151
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,039
Speaker 1: what have you, might be criminally might be arrested. So

152
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: I'm not paying you for that right now. So I

153
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:58,919
Speaker 1: think they're gonna watch and see how this plays out.

154
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 1: But it'll be interesting how they handle this moving forward.

155
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: Are they going to be status.

156
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 3: Quo in the league? Are they going to be ones

157
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 3: that may be cut bait earlier than most teams do?

158
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 4: Even the thing I would First of all, have you

159
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 4: ever seen Forrest Gump?

160
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: Love It? One of my faves? Yeah.

161
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 4: So Forrest Gump's mom had a saying that I think

162
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 4: I know, and it's not The box of chocolate is stupid?

163
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 1: Stupid? Does period? Now? One thing?

164
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 4: Okay, immature, but two things it's like, okay, you got

165
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 4: to grow up a little bit. Three things. It's like, bro,

166
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 4: this dude is tripping four or five things. Stupid is

167
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 4: what stupid? Does you get what you get? If I'm

168
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 4: the Rams, I trade him before the draft. You want

169
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 4: to add draft capital. This is him coming off to

170
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 4: the years he's had. It's tremendous value. I'm trading him

171
00:07:55,880 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 4: and replacing him big time receiver draft right now, just

172
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 4: like you found him in the fifth right. Obviously your

173
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 4: scouting department knows what's going on. But there's a reason

174
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 4: why he was a fifth round draft pick. There's a

175
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 4: reason why Antonio Brown was a sixth round draft pick.

176
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 4: Doesn't always have to do with what you do on

177
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 4: the field, and so as someone who's as buttoned up

178
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 4: as the Rams are and they're all in on this

179
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 4: next year, they're all in on this next year. So

180
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 4: what you can't do is afford or allow yourself to

181
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,680
Speaker 4: be on the short end of a stick of someone

182
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 4: who's not making great decisions off the field, because that

183
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 4: can manifest itself into where he's not available because he's

184
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 4: done something off the field that takes him out of

185
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 4: the plan of being all in. So now I'm looking, Okay,

186
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 4: what can we get for him? Who can we break

187
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:57,079
Speaker 4: in and how do we move forward? That's how I'm

188
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:57,839
Speaker 4: thinking about it.

189
00:08:57,960 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 6: Now.

190
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 4: Will they let him play out on us? Uh, you

191
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 4: know last year of his rookie deal. Probably, But as

192
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 4: of right now, his highest value outside of him having

193
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 4: an all Pro season again next year, would be right

194
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 4: now going into the draft. Now, some teams won't be

195
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 4: swayed by what's going on and the things that he's doing,

196
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 4: but it's showing a huge problem with immaturity on a

197
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:36,320
Speaker 4: team that's older, a team that's felt they should have

198
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 4: been in the Super Bowl and should have won the

199
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 4: Super Bowl, and so now there's no room for error.

200
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,680
Speaker 4: This is probably Matthew Stafford's last year. There is no

201
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 4: room for error, So you don't want to have any

202
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 4: distractions or things in that locker room that can alter

203
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 4: those plans.

204
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:57,880
Speaker 1: I think too from you want to you use the

205
00:09:57,920 --> 00:09:59,840
Speaker 1: forrest gut one while use one for you. That felt

206
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 1: people say, you know, money really exposed to just who

207
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 1: you really are. And my concern would be, now I

208
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,319
Speaker 1: throw him all this money, is he gonna be even

209
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: more irreverend, Is he gonna be more immature? He's gonna

210
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 1: be even more reckless? And that would be a massive

211
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,319
Speaker 1: concern because again, this is a big time investment saying

212
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 1: not only do we expect you to be great on

213
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,560
Speaker 1: the field, we expect you to be a great leader

214
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 1: in the community. When you give that kind of money,

215
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 1: We're not saying, hey, you're just good. We're saying you are.

216
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,839
Speaker 1: You are a face of the organization, and you know this.

217
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 1: You're going to speak in the community. You might they

218
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 1: go do a charitable event, you might have to go

219
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,200
Speaker 1: do something with kids, you might have to go through firemen, police.

220
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: You know you're a captain. If you will like that

221
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 1: kind of money says you have a lot of say

222
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: in this organization.

223
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 3: We care about you. We want you to be here

224
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 3: for the.

225
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 1: Long haul, and it can't be a guy well here's

226
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 1: a bunch of money. I think you'll be here. I

227
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 1: think you might not be suspended. I hope you're not suspended.

228
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 1: I hope we don't have to suspend you to kind

229
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: of jump in front of it, in front of the league.

230
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 3: You know, our teams do that all right, to spend

231
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 3: them three or four. So hopefully the league will cut

232
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 3: him some slack.

233
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 1: So I'm just disappointed in him because to your point,

234
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:10,040
Speaker 1: they had a really good season. Matthew Stafford is your MVP,

235
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 1: and you're looking at it as man. We feel like

236
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 1: they could say, man, we should have been in interstet

237
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 1: of the Seahawks. And you try to bounce right back.

238
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 1: He's a massive part of what you do. But again,

239
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 1: this is too much happening in less than three hundred

240
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:24,079
Speaker 1: and sixty five days.

241
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 4: Ephim, you know you want to pay that forty five

242
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 4: million dollars.

243
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 1: No, and you brought up a great I want to

244
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: go back to a point you made that I thought

245
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:37,560
Speaker 1: was excellent, bringing up guys like Antonio Brown when guys

246
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 1: had to transfer schools. And I don't just mean because

247
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 1: I didn't get enough playing time. I'm talking to other

248
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: stuff kicked off. This grades bad, And I'm not saying

249
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 1: you're plenty of guys who will come out to be

250
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 1: amazing people, not only good football players, amazing people. Again,

251
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 1: I was eighteen and I did some dumb stuff. I'd

252
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,200
Speaker 1: imagine maybe you did, like I'm not. I'm not saying

253
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 1: you can't. You have to be perfect when you're eighteen

254
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: nineteen twenty. However, if they're is a pattern of having

255
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: to switch schools, getting into a coach, then this coach

256
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,440
Speaker 1: with that coach and gotta go to another school even

257
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: though you're talented. There can that happens quite a bit

258
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 1: where guys will go third round, fourth round, fifth rounds.

259
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 1: You mentioned sixth. Because there's something to him. This doesn't

260
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,080
Speaker 1: really pass the smell test, you know, like something somethings off.

261
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 1: Why when I go talk to some of his teammates,

262
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: they kind of man, you know, when I can talk

263
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 1: to his coach, they're like, boy, that boy was a

264
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 1: problem child. And so I'm just saying, if you're pooking

265
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 1: the cool man, it's time to wisen up, straighten up,

266
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:32,559
Speaker 1: and hey.

267
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 4: Man, they gave him that conversation already they did right,

268
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 4: and they stuck by him very very They're not going

269
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 4: to This won't be the first time he's heard them say, hey,

270
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 4: chill out, man, like, what's going on with you? Whatever,

271
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:48,280
Speaker 4: He's gonna do what he's gonna do.

272
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: Right.

273
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 4: So, now, as an organization, you have to determine, right,

274
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 4: is it worth it for for for this year? I'm

275
00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 4: not talking about two years from now and three for

276
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 4: this year? Is it worth it to disrupt an all

277
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:09,200
Speaker 4: in type of year? Is it worth it? Or could

278
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 4: you get some value, some trade value for him?

279
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 1: Now, well, you brought up a good point with the

280
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 1: scouting too, man, That's how they got Cooper Cup. Yeah,

281
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: who was this guy? What was it?

282
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 3: Third round?

283
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 4: I believe man, they are proficient in finding, especially receiver talent.

284
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 4: That's not a problem. Can you get something worth a pooking?

285
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 4: The cool right now that you can now separate yourself

286
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 4: from what may happen are the headache of someone who

287
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 4: now makes forty two to forty five million dollars a

288
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 4: year and doesn't feel like there are any consequences for

289
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:43,440
Speaker 4: his actions or of the things he says.

290
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 1: Last point for me, Ephraim, I'm so tired of guys

291
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 1: getting on these streams.

292
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:51,760
Speaker 3: I'm not saying don't stream have a ball, play the

293
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 3: video games.

294
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 4: You can be on streams, just don't be stupid.

295
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,200
Speaker 1: Don't be stupid, don't be on the live flashing the

296
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 1: gun joh Wick know, like you know you don't don't

297
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 1: like just behave with up mob being the boy with

298
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:06,559
Speaker 1: shooting hoove. We played games.

299
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 4: Whatever stupid does man, Like everybody didn't grow up with

300
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 4: common sense, bro.

301
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 1: I know.

302
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 4: The one thing about common sense is it's not very

303
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 4: common and so and so when you get in these

304
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 4: situations where you have someone repeatedly saying things and putting

305
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 4: not only himself but his team in harm's way, that's

306
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 4: they don't get it. Giving him more money doesn't make

307
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 4: him understand it. And what will get him may have

308
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 4: him understand is he find himself he woke up in

309
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 4: Cleveland playing for the Browns, are in in in the

310
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 4: in New York playing for the Jets, then it'll be like,

311
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,880

Speaker 4: You on the odd couple with ephrom and Kelvin. What

388
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:38,600
Speaker 4: you got.

389
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 8: Guys?

390
00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:41,399
Speaker 1: What's up man?

391
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 9: I think what's up?

392
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 1: Man?

393
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:43,919
Speaker 10: So?

394
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:48,119
Speaker 9: I think you know he's entering the final year of

395
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 9: his contracts. He's definitely a top five receiver in the

396
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:56,720
Speaker 9: league in my opinion. They're just getting him at a

397
00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 9: bargain seventeen hundred yards last year. That's crazy. I think

398
00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:07,000
Speaker 9: they should. Yeah, I mean he's expected to, you know,

399
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 9: if he doesn't improve his actions, you know, he's he's

400
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 9: expected to earn a lot more after next year. So

401
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,680
Speaker 9: give him one more shot. See if he cleans up,

402
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,439
Speaker 9: and see how that goes.

403
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 1: Seventeen hundred dollars seventeen hundred yards and from get somebody

404
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,879
Speaker 1: giving you one more shot. Some people, some people are

405
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,480
Speaker 1: cool doing that. I appreciate the call, believe it was Chris.

406
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:28,880
Speaker 1: Thank you for that. All right? Who we got?

407
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 4: We got uh, Tony and Louisville. You on a high

408
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 4: couple with Ethan m kelvin. What you got, hey, what's

409
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 4: up doing?

410
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,920
Speaker 1: What's that having? Excellent? Man? Thank you?

411
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 11: Good?

412
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:42,440
Speaker 1: Hey.

413
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 6: Look, I think the RAMS should go ahead and cut

414
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:50,360
Speaker 6: this guy loose just because he's gonna get worse. What

415
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,560
Speaker 6: else has he done that hasn't made the news? And

416
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 6: I think the RAMS already knew about poking the corps

417
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 6: before they drafted him. So again, what has this guy

418
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:07,359
Speaker 6: done in the past? Uh, but just hasn't made the media,

419
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,159
Speaker 6: So they should send him somewhere to uh, you know,

420
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 6: wide receiver, a black hole, somewhere like the Jets or

421
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 6: somewhere like that. I'll thank you. Something's gonna get worse.

422
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 1: No doubt. All right, Hey, appreciate it man, Thank you

423

00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,959
Speaker 4: on on on the show bel Air, I was writing

469
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:31,920
Speaker 4: on so if you go in there and you look

470
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,440
Speaker 4: in the first season, he's got a whole gaming set

471
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 4: up with the with the PlayStation and all of that.

472
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 4: I wrote that in and that's what I did. That's

473
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 4: how much of a gamer I am. So if I'm

474
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 4: not gonna be in the league, then who should be

475
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:44,679
Speaker 4: in the league?

476
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,919
Speaker 1: Thank you? And I love this message. You got my vote, Ephraim.

477
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,000

00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:55,119
Speaker 1: forad Joy now by our man. I don't know if

479
00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 1: he could top that. Mark fucking Commadina essentially Sports Fox,

480
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 1: Sports Radio, NBA inside Mark G.

481
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 3: I wonder what the G is for? Greg Mark? Gregory Medina?

482
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 1: Am I right? Okay?

483
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, Mark Gabriel Medina close?

484
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,160
Speaker 1: Ye know? And what's up? Man?

485
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:18,959
Speaker 3: First off? Good to have you on.

486
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:20,360
Speaker 1: Man. Are you what game?

487
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 3: Are you at the Laker game right now?

488
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:23,160
Speaker 9: Uh?

489
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 8: I'm at a raptors out here now? What Friday?

490
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:30,360
Speaker 1: Okay?

491
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:34,120
Speaker 8: Hey, well, potential revenge game several years later.

492
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 4: That's true?

493
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, well we'll we'll pass on that. You know,

494
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:39,679
Speaker 1: Let's go to the Lakers. Let's talk. Let's talk what

495
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 1: they're doing. They lose to the Pistons, but overall, we've

496
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,159
Speaker 1: been talking about it earlier. They look good. Lebron is

497
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,359
Speaker 1: seeing the bought in this role. I told Rob Parker

498
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 1: that I thought he would. I said, if anybody is

499
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 1: capable of doing it, it's his his versatility, his ability

500
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:54,119
Speaker 1: to play so many different positions. Luca can't do that,

501
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 1: Austin can't do that, and and other guys on the

502
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 1: team can't. What are you making this? Is this a mirage?

503
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 1: Is it real is it gonna but you know, is

504
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 1: this something that can actually last in the postseason?

505
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 8: Well, from your one hundred percent exactly right, it makes

506
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,160
Speaker 8: me wonder why Rob Parkner's action out on the show today,

507
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 8: trying to escape maybe the questions about why we're you

508
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,919
Speaker 8: so down on the Lakers. This is what Lebron James is.

509
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:18,639
Speaker 8: I remember asking him at the beginning of the season,

510
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 8: Palla's he going to adjust his role given his multi

511
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,639
Speaker 8: skilled resumes? Like, I'm a ballplayer, like I know how

512
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:27,159
Speaker 8: to adapt, I know how to make everyone better around me.

513
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 8: And I never doubted, you know, the x's and o's

514
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 8: adjustments of him either as a first, second, third option

515
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,639
Speaker 8: on off ball, because he's been used to doing this

516
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:38,439
Speaker 8: and one of the things that makes him such a

517
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:42,159
Speaker 8: great player is making the right basketball play. But I

518
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:46,440
Speaker 8: think everything else around them has improved the player availability.

519
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 8: With all those three players, DeAndre and being much more engaged,

520
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 8: they actually looked like a pretty good defensive team. And

521
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 8: earlier in the season you didn't see any of those

522
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 8: things play out. So no doubt Luka doncis playing really well.

523
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,200
Speaker 8: Austin Reeves has been a lot more comfortable after coming

524
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:06,439
Speaker 8: back from his injury. Lebron James is still punching up

525
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,920
Speaker 8: other time a little bit here, But I think it's

526
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 8: more of the external things than anything about the Big

527
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 8: three in their fifth because again, when I was at games,

528
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:18,119
Speaker 8: I thought X's and O's dynamic is fine. It's just

529
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 8: you can only do so much when there's so many

530
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 8: falls in the roster, so many overlapping injuries, as well

531
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:27,200
Speaker 8: as a poor defensive team. But somehow they've been able

532
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 8: to address those issues lately.

533
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 4: What I was telling Kelvin earlier is if you get

534
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 4: into a playoff series and Lebron James in his current

535
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 4: state is your third option, then you have a chance

536
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 4: to win every series you're in. If Lebron James is

537
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 4: going to play the role he's been playing this last

538
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 4: month and a half, then you do have a legitimate

539
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 4: chance to compete with anybody in the seven game series,

540
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:56,440
Speaker 4: because it virtually makes you unguardable. If Lebron James is

541
00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:02,680
Speaker 4: playing against your second unit, or if you deferring until

542
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 4: the fourth quarter, well he can really, you know, stretch

543
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 4: his legs and become a prominent playmaker down the stretch.

544
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:09,920
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on that?

545
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think it's a good point. I do think

546
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,560
Speaker 8: at the same time, because of Lebron's stature and he's

547
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 8: a great player in the playoffs, you tend to take

548
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:21,359
Speaker 8: your game to another level. I don't have any skepticism

549
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,560
Speaker 8: that this can sustain through the rest of the season,

550
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 8: even the postseason, as far as his willingness to sacrifice,

551
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,399
Speaker 8: but I think because of how he is, he'll try

552
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,400
Speaker 8: to address even more things. I think the main thing

553
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 8: is because we don't know what version of Austin Reeves

554
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 8: we'll see in the postseason, we've seen so far true

555
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 8: in a short playoff career that he either runs into

556
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 8: a wall just isn't able to handle the physicality and

557
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,880
Speaker 8: double teams and the fatigue. And I think if that's

558
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:52,440
Speaker 8: something that plays out again this season, if you're going

559
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:56,399
Speaker 8: to naturally see Lebron think, okay, I'm Lebron James, I

560
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 8: got to fill in and do all this. But I

561
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,119
Speaker 8: think when it comes to if all things are being equal,

562
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:04,200
Speaker 8: Luca's still playing at the level he's at. Same thing

563
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,679
Speaker 8: with Austin. I don't think Lebron's going to have a

564
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 8: problem playing the role that he has because again, even

565
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 8: though he's always had a very important role in every

566
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 8: team he's played. He Exison knows he's always been fine

567
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 8: with being adaptable. I think the bigger thing is about,

568
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 8: you know, what his influence is over the franchise in

569
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:29,320
Speaker 8: terms of his contract, his influences, front office personnel decisions

570
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,119
Speaker 8: and all that. But when it comes to on the court,

571
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:33,639
Speaker 8: very very adaptible, and I don't think it's going to

572
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:35,880
Speaker 8: be an adjustment even the playoffs.

573
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 1: Mark, I want to go here. I'm looking at Wimby

574
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 1: and Rob and I got into it the other day

575
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 1: because I was all in. I was team Wimby talking

576
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: his talk, telling you, hey, Joker doesn't play defense, Luca

577
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:50,160
Speaker 1: doesn't play defense, tell him why he's the MVP. Rob,

578
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,879
Speaker 1: you gotta be humble, as if Rob's humble. And I

579
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 1: just thought, I just thought that, you know, I love

580
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 1: that he would be doing that, and I love that

581
00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:59,120
Speaker 1: he you know, he's talked about the thunder he said

582
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,919
Speaker 1: we basically swept. Point is do you are you okay

583
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,400
Speaker 1: with him kind of big up in himself talking about himself,

584
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 1: or or do you prefer him to just kind of

585
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 1: took the meek role.

586
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 10: No.

587
00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,359
Speaker 8: Man, Like I'm in the media, I want players to

588
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,920
Speaker 8: be interesting. I want them to be opinionated. I want

589
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 8: them to share what they think. I don't want the

590
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 8: cliches and the fake humble and has all that. I

591
00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:24,879
Speaker 8: have no problem with that at all as a media member. Now, objectively,

592
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 8: when stars do that, you have to back it up,

593
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 8: and Wenby hasn't backed it up. He's been a very

594
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,640
Speaker 8: dominant player and everything that he stated about his case

595
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 8: for MVP, there's no incorrect facts here. Now this is

596
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,800
Speaker 8: all fluid. To be clear, It's not like he does

597
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 8: have a chance to win MVP. But if the season

598
00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:46,280
Speaker 8: ended the day, I would still give the slight edge

599
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:50,480
Speaker 8: to Shay, Gilgess Alexander And here's why. You know, record

600
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 8: does matter to Thunder currently have a better record. But

601
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 8: I think the bigger thing is Shay has been able

602
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 8: to maintain his level of dominance even with coming off

603
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 8: of Championship here even more physical defensive schemes targeting him.

604
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 8: He had to deal with a lot of overlapping injuries

605
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 8: with his supporting cast, most notably with Jalen Williams so

606
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 8: Victor Wenbanyama. There hasn't been any major issues you know

607
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 8: that he's shown this season, So it's really just picking

608
00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 8: between two really great options. But it's going to be

609
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 8: between those two players because, as you mentioned Nicole Yoka,

610
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 8: she's a great player, but they've been on a slide recently.

611
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:30,320
Speaker 8: He's not known as a great defensive player. You know,

612
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 8: Kate Cunningham's already out of contention because of his injury.

613
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,960
Speaker 8: I think Luca is in the conversation, but look, his

614
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 8: defense may be improved, but still not that stellar. And

615
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 8: Jalen Brown he deserves to be in consideration. But I

616
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 8: think Victor Wenbanyama, Shaegilds, Alexander They're just on a whole

617
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 8: different stratosphere with what they do as players and where

618
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 8: both of those current teams are at.

619
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, when when you look at Victor woman Yama and

620
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 4: I said this at the beginning of the season, if

621
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,840
Speaker 4: he stays healthy, he's no be the best basketball player

622
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,360
Speaker 4: the world has ever seen. He'll be the greatest NBA

623
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 4: player the world has ever seen. The things he can

624
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 4: do offensively and defensively. It just changes the game like

625
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:17,720
Speaker 4: no other player in the league currently. It's unbelievable. What

626
00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:23,520
Speaker 4: do you make about Ky Cunningham's agent balking about the

627
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 4: sixty five game rule to where players can't be considered

628
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 4: for a postseason awards to all NBA teams if they

629
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 4: don't play sixty five games or more. And dealing with

630
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,360
Speaker 4: the current issue of the collapse long, where do you

631
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 4: stand on that?

632
00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, to a man, to be clear, I

633
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 8: feel bad for Kate Cunningham with this kind of injury,

634
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 8: especially this late in the season. You know, obviously when

635
00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 8: it affects players contracts that it's tough. And you'd understand

636
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,640
Speaker 8: anytime you have a potential to make money and you

637
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 8: lose out on it, that can be frustrating. But I

638
00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 8: think objectively with this policy, I think that there's flaws

639
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 8: and it's a band aid with this NBA sixty five

640
00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 8: game role. But the players in the union and they

641
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,480
Speaker 8: can't be crying and wanting to have their cake and

642
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 8: eat it too. And here's why it's been collectively bargained

643
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 8: for players to be eligible for bonuses if they make

644
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 8: it make all NBA teams. But those are bonuses you

645
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 8: have to be you have to understand that there might

646
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 8: be strings attached here. And I think that's a much

647
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 8: different conversation. And I agree with this that you know,

648
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 8: players have collectively bargained have guarantee contracts. So what if

649
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 8: your roles reduced or you have an unforeseen injury. You

650
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:38,600
Speaker 8: can't allow a team to just throw you out on

651
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 8: the street, right like that. That's something that's very valuable.

652
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 8: So you already have that security there. And I'm not

653
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 8: discounting the money. The eligibility for all NBA teams is real,

654
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 8: but one of those things, like there has to be

655
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 8: some sort of tradeoff now with MVP and sixty five

656
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 8: game role, I do have a problem with it only

657
00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 8: because it hasn't significantly addressed player availability, and it's also

658
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 8: tried to solve a problem that doesn't necessarily exist. When

659
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:08,200
Speaker 8: you look at the history of MVP voting, Bill Walton

660
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 8: is literally the only player that won MVP in a

661
00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 8: normal season. There's been some exceptions lockout shortan's season or

662
00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 8: like I think Bob Coosey won in the fifties when

663
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 8: the season was shorter, But Bill Walton is literally the

664
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:24,560
Speaker 8: only player that won MVP playing under sixty games. So

665
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 8: voters have always taken availability as a factor. It's not

666
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:32,560
Speaker 8: the main factor. It's usually play and team success, but

667
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 8: it should be a factor. I mean, look like when

668
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 8: we're evaluating NBA champions health matters, right, Like you can't say,

669
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 8: oh I got an injury, this shouldn't count this season. Well,

670
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:44,239
Speaker 8: I mean that's what professional sports is. The same thing

671
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 8: applies to the MVP race. I do get it, though,

672
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 8: like you know, the letter of the law. If you

673
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 8: play sixty four games now, all of a sudden you're out.

674
00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,320
Speaker 8: I think that's done. But I think the bigger thing is,

675
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 8: you know, it's not that big of a deal because

676
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 8: it never has been a deal through most of the

677
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 8: sure of the NBA.

678
00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:05,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I hate it because obviously Pistons just my squad.

679
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, there's a reason

680
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 1: why you made this rule. Guys weren't playing. Guys are saying,

681
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 1: but my toe hurts, I ain't playing. My ping e hurts,

682
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 1: I ain't playing. And if you look at this instance

683
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,480
Speaker 1: right now, what do you have again, A bunch of

684
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:17,320
Speaker 1: guys who aren't playing.

685
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:18,800
Speaker 3: That's why so many ineligible.

686
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 1: So the rule it's still you still need to get

687
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,400
Speaker 1: guys playing inactive in order to really consider it. To me,

688
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,400
Speaker 1: I said it like this, fellas if you if you

689
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 1: I'm telling you need to pit your grades up as

690
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 1: my child and you come to me and get an

691
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,480
Speaker 1: A minus and I want today. I can consider it.

692
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:33,720
Speaker 6: Now.

693
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 1: You can't come to me with a B and I said,

694
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 1: I wanted today and then I'll consider it. You can't

695
00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,600
Speaker 1: come to me where all your stars are still injured
