Speaker 3: Trey, you got a.

34
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 4: Cat on your shoulder, Well, not on my shoulder, but

35
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 4: uh yeah, Wilbur's hanging out here. It looks like he's

36
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 4: trying to tune into the stream team.

37
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 1: You'd be quite honest, what's up, buddy.

38
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 4: You know, he was being pretty chill today, so I

39
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 4: thought I'd let him stay in this and help out here.

40
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 5: Look at him pretending he doesn't know what he's doing.

41
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 5: He knows damn well what he's doing. That weed ass y.

42
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was like an optic illusion. I thought it

43
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 3: was on his shoulder.

44
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: It looked like it was perched on his shoulder.

45
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 3: There before the show, you say something was off camera

46
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,959
Speaker 3: and Trey was leaning over saying, what's up, buddy. I

47
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 3: didn't know if you were talking to a child or

48
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 3: a cat or a dog. Great to find out, what's up, buddy, cat?

49
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 1: What's up, Wilbur.

50
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's Oil talking Olympic Games. And then Friday's

Speaker 2: Fast Friends, the first rewatch of the first movie of

52
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 2: the Fast and Furious franchise. But today, yeah, just more

53
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 2: things happening in the NBA free agent world. We're cruising

54
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 2: along like a ninety four Toyota Supra or something like that.

55
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 1: I don't know, we don't know cars.

56
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 2: If you want to hear us discuss th Kyle Lowry

57
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 2: joining the Heat and Chris Paul resigning with the Suns,

58
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 2: and Lonzo Ball going to the Bulls and all that,

59
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 2: check out yesterday's podcast. Tuesday's podcast ninety minutes long, recapping

60
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 2: Day one. But we're into date here, and we got

61
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,079
Speaker 2: some breaking news right before we jumped on. In fact,

62
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 2: that's why we're a little late here. Woach tweeting Kemba

63
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 2: Walker has agreed to a contract biot with the Oklahoma

64
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 2: City Thunder, and upon clearing waivers, he plans to sign

65
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 2: with the New York Knicks.

66
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 1: So tasks.

67
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 2: He's come to an agreement. I mean, he had a

68
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 2: lot of money left on that deal, two years, seventy

69
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 2: four million. We don't know the actual terms of the

70
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,800
Speaker 2: contract buyout, what do he agreed to give back?

71
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 1: But in theory he's signed with the Knicks. What do

72
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 1: you think?

73
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,920
Speaker 3: It sure seems like a hell of a gift for

74
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 3: the New York Knicks this guy. Yeah, two year, seventy

75
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 3: four left. They come to whatever agreement they do in

76
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 3: ok see, and then he just shows up on the

77
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 3: next door. Who knows how much they're signing for in

78
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 3: New York, But yeah, he becomes their starting point guard automatically.

79
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 3: And pretty shocked that Okac wouldn't try and get some

80
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 3: sort of asset for him in return. I understand it's

81
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 3: a big deal, a big contract, so you have to

82
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 3: take some money back in return. So that was difficult,

83
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,839
Speaker 3: I assume, But Kemba definitely wasn't in the plans and okay, see,

84
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 3: so it makes sense he'd go somewhere else. But yeah,

85
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 3: the New York Knicks I think have their starting point guard.

86
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 3: I think he'll be starting alongside Evan forty and RJ. Barrett,

87
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 3: Julius Randall and Neurleans Noel, who now makes a little

88
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 3: bit more sense that Neurlans Noell got that money because

89
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:24,159
Speaker 3: now all those four other guys are there offensive players,

90
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 3: nerlands Well is gonna have to play some defense. Derek

91
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,159
Speaker 3: Grose goes to the bench, I assume, and his more

92
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 3: desired role instead of having to be the starter like

93
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 3: he was throughout the postseason there because they needed so

94
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 3: much offense. But they are loaded in the offense department,

95
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 3: as I said, with Kemba, their new guy, Fournier, Barrett

96
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 3: and Randall. This still leaves them in clearly the second

97
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,840
Speaker 3: tier of the Eastern Conference. You've got a top tier

98
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 3: in Milwaukee, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, the Heat and the Hawks. Those

99
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 3: are the five teams, and we'll get to the Bulls.

100
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 3: But I think the Bulls join, you know.

101
00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 4: The war numbers.

102
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 3: There you go, There you go. I think that's the

103
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 3: clear fight we're going to have next where we scrapping

104
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 3: the Bulls, Pacers and Raptors are still there, but the

105
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 3: Celtics are still there as well. There we go. It's

106
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:13,920
Speaker 3: the East is deep all of a sudden.

107
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,039
Speaker 2: Okay, so this doesn't really move the needle you're saying

108
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 2: for the next but this is good because I got

109
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:19,479
Speaker 2: a starting point guard.

110
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 3: Sorry point guard before I assume because okay, so you

111
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 3: would have to pay him a decent amount that the

112
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 3: Knicks aren't paying a lot, right, I assume because they

113
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 3: just gave up all their cap room on day one

114
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,160
Speaker 3: for a seventh seed or eight seeded team, and now

115
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:35,919
Speaker 3: they're moving up to the six point five seed. It

116
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:37,039
Speaker 3: seems like moving up.

117
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 1: They're moving down if that's the case four seed last year.

118
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 1: But anyway, good.

119
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 3: Point up from yesterday, up from yesterday.

120
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,479
Speaker 2: I got you, Lee, You're the biggest next fan. I

121
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 2: know Madison Square Guard and Kemba Walker that's worked before.

122
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 2: We seen them have some magical games in MSG. Do

123
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:54,679
Speaker 2: you what do you think of this? You know, breaking

124
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,280
Speaker 2: news here from mosh.

125
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 5: Well, I'll start with the positive. Three and four years ago,

126
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 5: Kemball walke aplighted id and it two games. He averaged

127
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,160
Speaker 5: twenty two points a game. He averaged twenty five points

128
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 5: a game in his last season there in Charlotte, and

129
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 5: he shot the ball really well forty three percent from

130
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 5: the field, thirty six percent from three point range, and

131
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 5: gave his six assists a game. So if you get

132
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 5: anything like that out of Kemba Walker, then this is

133
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 5: an absolute steal for the New York Knicks. The problem

134
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,720
Speaker 5: is the last two seasons he's missed significant time through injury,

135
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 5: and that's probably why he's in this position in the

136
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 5: first place. You know, things didn't work out in Boston.

137
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,479
Speaker 5: They gave him that big contract, but he was just

138
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 5: injured a lot, and I think that the Celtics there

139
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 5: were just like frustrated and they were like, this guy

140
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 5: can't stay on the court. So that's gonna be think

141
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 5: he's only thirty one. I think he's thirty one or thirty,

142
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 5: so he's still very very young in terms of like

143
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 5: he's got. He could have three or four really good

144
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 5: years here. He's not a sort of pass first point guard.

145
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 5: He's more a sort of shooting, scoring point guard. But

146
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 5: he can do that. For New York they need that.

147
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 5: They definitely need that next to Julius Randall, because we

148
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 5: saw in the playoffs here, especially against Atlanda Hawks, they

149
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 5: just didn't have anyone else who was able to create.

150
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,600
Speaker 5: So if you're the Knicks right now, you're like, oh,

151
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 5: you're looking at us is two years prior to this

152
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 5: last season where it's like he was really a good

153
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,159
Speaker 5: it was a great player, four time All Stars, So

154
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 5: he brings a lot of hope to that franchise that

155
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 5: he can get anywhere near that level. Then they've picked

156
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 5: up a great player for nothing. But if he's in

157
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 5: and out of the lineup and that knee injury, as

158
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 5: certainly he's plagued in the last season or two, then

159
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 5: you're really not sure what you're going to get out

160
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 5: of him, because he's probably going to be in for

161
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 5: a few games, and he's going to miss a few games,

162
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 5: and then he's going to be coming back and it's

163
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,239
Speaker 5: sort of working his way into the lineup. So that's

164
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 5: the I think the whole situation here with the Knicks.

165
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 5: They're hoping that he can recover from that knee injury,

166
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 5: and if he can, then I think he can still

167
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 5: be a very productive player. And I think this is

168
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 5: a pretty good pick up for again giving up nothing

169
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 5: in return.

170
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, what do you think, Trey with all the moves?

171
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 2: I guess the next of me here now basically bringing

172
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 2: the band back together in a Reggie Bullock moves on.

173
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 2: But then they add feign Air to the big deal

174
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 2: and now we don't know the details but kemil Walker.

175
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 1: You know, has this been a pretty.

176
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 2: Good actual free agency now for the New York Nicks

177
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 2: or is it a bit of like huh?

178
00:07:58,120 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 3: I mean, it.

179
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 4: Definitely changes things. It makes me like the Fournier signing

180
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 4: a whole lot more knowing he's not gonna be the

181
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 4: number one ball handling piece that New York brought in.

182
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 4: I don't know that we're gonna ever get back to

183
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 4: see in the four time All Star Kemba Walker that

184
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 4: we've seen in the past. But that's not necessarily what

185
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 4: the Knicks need. They just need quality starting point guard

186
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 4: who is able to play, you know, thirty five to

187
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 4: forty minutes a night, which theoretically Kemba will be able

188
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 4: to do. Derek Rose wasn't quite able to do that.

189
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 4: I don't like it from two standpoints. Number one, I

190
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 4: just found out Kemball Walker was in Oklahoma City Thunder,

191
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 4: still adjusting to that, and now he's moving on to

192
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 4: the Knicks. That's gonna be tough for me. And it

193
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 4: does a little bit get in the way I feel

194
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 4: like of the development of Emmanual quickly and more so

195
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 4: r J. Barrett, like they just keep going bringing in

196
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,680
Speaker 4: guys to handle the ball the Knicks to and that's

197
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 4: taking the ball out of the hands of Barrett, who

198
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 4: you know, he was a high draft pick. He seems

199
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 4: to have some playmaking ability. The shot looked better towards

200
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 4: the end of the.

201
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 3: Season last year.

202
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 4: So from that standpoint, I don't love it, but I

203
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 4: think getting Kemba Walker for basically nothing is gonna be

204
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 4: huge for the Knicks. And you know, point guards who

205
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 4: can play in the pick and roll tend to do

206
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 4: pretty well in tomp Them's offense. He'll get a ton

207
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 4: of chances. We saw it with Derrick Rose. We saw

208
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 4: it with Austin Rivers early in the year, quickly played

209
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 4: out of the pick and roll last year. Kemba's going

210
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 4: to get his chances. He's probably best with the ball

211
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 4: in his hands playing in pick and roll, so I

212
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 4: can see it working from a fit standpoint as well.

213
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,440
Speaker 2: Well, let's get to your bulls, who are making more moves.

214
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:25,079
Speaker 2: In day two, sign and trade Damart de Rosen. They

215
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 2: traded Thatius, Young, Alfa, Rukmino and draft picks to the

216
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 2: Spurs for DeRozan, who signs a three.

217
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 1: Year, eighty five million dollar deal. Remember when people.

218
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 2: Were wondering if he was going to take like a

219
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 2: mad pay cut to join a team to try and

220
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 2: win a title.

221
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 1: No, not happening, guy got paid. What do you think? TK?

222
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 2: Obviously Lonzo ball there on day one and now DeRozan

223
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 2: in the mix? How happy are you or confused are you?

224
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 2: What's your emotions with this DeRozan news?

225
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 3: Well?

226
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 4: I was surprised and delighted when the Bulls somehow got

227
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 4: Alex Caruso on day one, So ford Bulls to get

228
00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,960
Speaker 4: Damar DeRozan on day two, who meant to be honestly

229
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 4: came out of nowhere. Rumors started breaking late afternoon yesterday

230
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 4: that the Bulls were in the mix for a DeRozan

231
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 4: sign and trade. Felt like it was gonna be Lowry

232
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:11,959
Speaker 4: marknin since he's been talked about as a sign and

233
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 4: trade candidate with the Bulls. The Lakers were still allegedly

234
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 4: in the mix. DeRozan had a meeting with the Clippers,

235
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,719
Speaker 4: but they didn't have the assets that Chicago had to

236
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 4: offer in a trade, and it turned out the money

237
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 4: was probably too much for Demarta rozen to pass up.

238
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 4: Three years eighty five million plus. That's a nice chunk

239
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,959
Speaker 4: of change for a nice player eight straight seasons of

240
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 4: twenty plus points for Demart Rosen career high six point

241
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 4: nine assists per.

242
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 3: Game last season.

243
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 4: Very nice, kind of become a point forward, a little

244
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 4: bit of a small ball for and like I said,

245
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 4: after Day one of free agency, the Bulls really needed

246
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 4: to wing. After bringing in Lonzo and Caruso, they got

247
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 4: maybe the best one available. Who's going to be changing teams.

248
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 4: I mean, Kawhi Leonard would be great. Don't think it's

249
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,599
Speaker 4: gonna don't think it's gonna happen. Bulls are gonna be

250
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 4: tough to stop and probably very easy to score on.

251
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:04,959
Speaker 4: I don't know if the fit is perfect. Derozen heint

252
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 4: a three point shooter. He's the best with the ball

253
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 4: in his hands, so is Zach Levine. Nikola Vucevic used

254
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 4: to a lot of touches as well, but the Bulls

255
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 4: fell apart last season when Levine went into the protocols

256
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 4: anytime he went to the bench, the offense looked terrible.

257
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 4: And now Chicago has legitimately multiple ball handlers, multiple scorers,

258
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 4: multiple creators for the first time in forever. The other concern,

259
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 4: no doubt, is the price. Three years, eighty five million.

260
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 4: That's a lot, but Derozen has interest around the league.

261
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 4: You know, he was meeting with contenders, and as we've

262
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 4: seen with Russell Westbrook on one of the biggest deals

263
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 4: in the entire league. Literally anybody can be traded, so

264
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 4: I'm not worried about that. From a cap cap space standpoint,

265
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,679
Speaker 4: Bowls also gave up Fad Young, Alfa Rukaminu and the

266
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 4: big thing, a future first round pick. Combined that with

267
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,719
Speaker 4: the Nikola Vuchevic trade, they didn't have their pick this

268
00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,679
Speaker 4: year twenty twenty one, they don't have their pick in

269
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 4: twenty twenty three, they don't have their pick in twenty

270
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 4: twenty five. I said it was a concerning for the

271
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 4: Heat to go all in for a third seed yesterday.

272
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 4: Bulls are all in for a fifth seed right now, right, yeah, yeah, yeah.

273
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 4: I would have like to keep the pick, but that

274
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 4: doesn't matter to me. The Bulls haven't made the playoffs

275
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 4: since twenty seventeen. They tried building through the draft and

276
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,199
Speaker 4: it didn't work at all. They picked seven three straight times,

277
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 4: they picked fourth once they'd got one guy in their

278
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 4: rotation from it. Meanwhile, you look at what the Bulls

279
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,240
Speaker 4: did last season. They were good for half a season,

280
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 4: they looked like a competent NBA team again. They said

281
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 4: they want to be a free agent destination. And that's

282
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 4: what happened right away. The best young guard in his

283
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,559
Speaker 4: prime who was a free agent, he switched teams. He

284
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 4: chose the Bulls. The best wing who's gonna switch teams,

285
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,559
Speaker 4: he chose the Bulls. They outbid the Lakers for a

286
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,959
Speaker 4: player they wanted to keep. That to me is a

287
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 4: major change in perception around the league. The balls are

288
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 4: better today than they were at the end of the season,

289
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 4: and they're ten times better off than they were at

290
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 4: the start of last season. So the balls are trending

291
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 4: the right way. You could even say, oh, they've won

292
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 4: free agency.

293
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,599
Speaker 1: So okay, you're not gonna say so far got to

294
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 1: play the games for them to be fulling back.

295
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, what do you think tasks like are they? Are

296
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:14,959
Speaker 2: they being too aggressive in free agency? I guess is

297
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 2: one way to spin it. And and are like you said,

298
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 2: t K like I guess the drafting wasn't working, so

299
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,800
Speaker 2: that type of rebuilding get out of here. See a picks, uh,

300
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 2: see a young guy, see any role player, and here's

301
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:27,920
Speaker 2: a bunch of money.

302
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 1: At ball and now DeRozan, do you like it?

303
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,959
Speaker 2: Tasks or are they have they gone a little overboard

304
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 2: for you know, starting lineup that looks good ball Levine DeRozan,

305
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:38,959
Speaker 2: Patrick Williams. I assume at the four and then vooch,

306
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 2: then cruise off the bench. Kobe White still there, Lauri

307
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 2: Marknen is still there. We'll see with him. But like

308
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 2: where does that fall in the Eastern Conference? Like is

309
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 2: this a fifth or sixth seed? Are they a title contender?

310
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 2: What do you think about these moves?

311
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 3: Tests? Yeah, they're dreaming for the sixth seed? It sure

312
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 3: seems like so it did they go overboard and they overpaid?

313
00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 3: For sure? Who were they bidding against for Demarto Rosen

314
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 3: three years eighty five million? You can't think of one

315
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 3: team really? You mentioned the Lakers there, Trey they could

316
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 3: have wanted him, or the Heat could have won him,

317
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 3: or the Clippers, but they couldn't pay anywhere close. The

318
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 3: salary cap is just locked up for most teams in

319
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,559
Speaker 3: the NBA. Anybody who wanted a thirty two year old

320
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 3: DeMar Derozen especially so three years eighty five just it's

321
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 3: too much. And then you tack onto that first round

322
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 3: pick and two seconds and a guy who really helped

323
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 3: out yes last year in Thatius Young, who would help

324
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 3: out on the defensive end. That being said, yeah, let's

325
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 3: look at the bright side. They are picking a direction.

326
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 3: They are at least not in the gar Foreman era anymore.

327
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 3: I mean, this is a team that's trying to win.

328
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,200
Speaker 3: And I think, you know, just like we talked about

329
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 3: the Knicks, they basically have gone all in on the

330
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 3: team that they have and that's that's what they are.

331
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 3: This is what they're going to be for several years

332
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 3: without their draft picks. So can they grow from within?

333
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 3: I think I think, you know, all these offensive guys,

334
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 3: all these offensive weapons, are they going to work together?

335
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 3: Zach Lavine is clearly still the guy, and I think

336
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 3: playing for USA Basketball in a sort of a third, fourth, fifth,

337
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 3: sixth role will help him understand that he's just got

338
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,640
Speaker 3: to get Lonzo ball the ball, and Vouch the ball

339
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 3: and Damar the ball hopefully and then he can take

340
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 3: over in the fourth quarter and and hopefully he likes

341
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 3: that situation. Some of the parts is should be a

342
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 3: lot better. But will they will they all sort of

343
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 3: work together? Especially when they dropped the triple T Thad

344
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 3: Tye and Temple. Their defense is going to be pretty bad.

345
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 3: Most likely they were eleventh last year. They dropped those guys.

346
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 3: This is this move puts Caruso on the bench because

347
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 3: you have Ball and Damar and Levine have to start

348
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 3: that in that back court. Are those guys going to

349
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 3: stop anybody? I know Lonzo Ball is sort of classified

350
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 3: as a good defender, but he's more of a help guy.

351
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 3: And then you get Vouch as a back line guy.

352
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 3: So the defense well hopefully be bullied by a lot

353
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 3: of offensive talent. Look at it, Look at those names.

354
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 3: They should be able to outscore some guys or outscore

355
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 3: some teams. So it's it's about them gelling. It's about

356
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 3: Lonzo Ball being a better player than he was in

357
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 3: New Orleans. It's about Zach Lavine giving the ball up

358
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 3: to Damar and letting him create. And Vooch's still getting

359
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 3: enough touches. So I mean there's some ifs there, but

360
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 3: a lot of talent. Yeah yeah, but you know, maybe

361
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 3: maybe maybe teams look at the balls and say, yeah

362
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 3: we can we can join them at some point, but

363
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 3: they just have no assets really to get any better.

364
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 3: So this is that this is them for several years.

365
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 3: It feels like, Lee, how good.

366
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 1: Is this Bulls team going to be?

367
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 5: Well, I don't think they're better than Brooklyn, Oor Milwaukee,

368
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 5: probably Philadelphia as well, Miamia, Miami. No, are they better

369
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 5: than the Atlanta Hawks. Probably not, based on the way

370
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 5: the season ended last year. So you know as well,

371
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 5: I'm just trying to make the best case know because

372
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 5: I think, look, if a guy like DeRozan's available, I

373
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 5: think it is a good move for the Bulls to

374
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:08,119
Speaker 5: get it. I think he's a good player. He improves

375
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:11,679
Speaker 5: that team offensively. Obviously, you guys addressing the defensive issues,

376
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 5: no doubt about that. But the most important thing I

377
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,399
Speaker 5: think is you've got guys, multiple guys who can go

378
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 5: out there and score. So that's good for Billy Donovan.

379
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 2: I actually love that it's Trades team too, because Trade

380
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 2: is always talking about how old and he's like putting its.

381
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 5: Mean a whole lot. But yeah, they shouldn't be score

382
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 5: Like everyone on that starting lineup can can sort of

383
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,240
Speaker 5: shoot and score. So I think that's great. That's a

384
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,920
Speaker 5: great start. But yeah, like defensively, I just don't think

385
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:42,159
Speaker 5: there's big enough inside, there's enough presence there, so I

386
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:43,639
Speaker 5: don't mind it that I think I think that I

387
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:45,840
Speaker 5: said yesterday, I think the Bulls were better yesterday than

388
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 5: were at the end of the season. I think they

389
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 5: got better yesterday as well. But there's still it's still

390
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 5: you have to talk yourself into them being better than

391
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,159
Speaker 5: one of those, certainly those top three teams in the

392
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 5: Eastern Conference. But you just never know. With those veterans

393
00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 5: they're added, maybe things can come together for them quickly.

394
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 5: So I don't know. I think it's I think it's fine.

395
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,360
Speaker 5: I think it's a good move. I think Chicago giving

396
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 5: up the picks, yeah, not ideal, but why not just

397
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 5: go for it if you can get DeRozan. I think

398
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,680
Speaker 5: if DeRozan, let's say he signed somewhere else and he

399
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 5: was available and the Bulls had a chance and they

400
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,919
Speaker 5: missed him, I think the Bulls would be disappointed if

401
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:17,479
Speaker 5: it was like what, so what did they give? Had

402
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 5: just one pick?

403
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 3: Was it?

404
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:18,880
Speaker 5: Did you say?

405
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:21,600
Speaker 3: One second? Yeah?

406
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, Yeah, I don't mind it. I think Chicago needs

407
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,240
Speaker 5: to be back. They were disappointing to end last season,

408
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,360
Speaker 5: and now I think they're I think I think they're

409
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 5: I think ceiling for them right now is home court

410
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,879
Speaker 5: advantage in the first round they get fourth seed, I

411
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 5: think that'd be a great spot for him, and I

412
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 5: think it's in play. I think it's implana.

413
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 2: I think just the issue with all of the picks

414
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:46,160
Speaker 2: going out when you go back to the Wendel Cotera

415
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 2: Junior trade four Vouch and then now these ones to

416
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,399
Speaker 2: get de Ros and it's like when a lot of

417
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 2: picks go out, that's okay, but you usually are hoping

418
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:55,680
Speaker 2: to get the superstar, you know, a need, a hard

419
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:59,720
Speaker 2: and whatever. This is vouchin Derozen and they are not

420
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,200
Speaker 2: on level of those guys I just mentioned, but they're.

421
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 1: Better than what they had there. And I'm with you there.

422
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 2: If they're the fourth or fifth seed, then this is

423
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 2: a very successful season and that's probably what their goal is.

424
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 2: I mean, to really win a first round would be huge.

425
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 2: Of course, make the playoffs and then win a first

426
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,359
Speaker 2: round series. But yeah, there's still a step behind the

427
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 2: elite teams. I love DeRozan if you haven't watched them

428
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,160
Speaker 2: in San Antonio, Trey said it. He's not a shooting guard.

429
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:23,680
Speaker 2: He's power forward at this point of his career, and

430
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 2: I assume he sort of will play that role like

431
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,359
Speaker 2: you're saying, like the wing role a three to four

432
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 2: alongside Patrick Williams. There, Donovan has played three guards before

433
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 2: in OKC, so I mean whatever you're calling them. He

434
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 2: is a playmaker. He's turned into that sort of a

435
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 2: point forward. And yeah, he doesn't shoot threes at all,

436
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,720
Speaker 2: so the spacing is an issue with him always. It's

437
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:46,440
Speaker 2: just fascinating to see if this is gonna work because

438
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,080
Speaker 2: a lot of those guys you said need the ball

439
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 2: in their hands or that's how they've been successful. You're

440
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 2: not putting DeRozan in the corner to space the floor.

441
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,440
Speaker 2: I mean, that's not what he's doing. Unless he's added

442
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 2: that to his game this offseason. You can subdenly hit

443
00:19:57,840 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 2: a three with some consistency.

444
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 1: I doubt it. So this this will be fun to watch.

445
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,159
Speaker 2: But the Bulls not officially back, but I'm gonna be

446
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 2: talking about them a whole lot more, which is definitely fun.

447
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:09,920
Speaker 1: For TK wearing the Bulls hat there and the gear,

448
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 1: I can't wait.

449
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,400
Speaker 4: And look, I don't think the picks and the salary

450
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 4: cap stuff, I don't think it's gonna matter. I don't

451
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:17,399
Speaker 4: actually think this is gonna be the Bulls team for

452
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:21,480
Speaker 4: the next five years market here, Nicole Vucevic's contract comes

453
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 4: up at the end of the twenty twenty three season.

454
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:24,920
Speaker 4: You know who else comes up at the end of

455
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:28,119
Speaker 4: the twenty twenty three season. Nikola Jokic. Oh wow, you

456
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 4: know scouted him and brought him over to the Denver Nuggets.

457
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:35,160
Speaker 4: He's the GM of the Chicago Bulls Right now. After

458
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 4: you make the playoffs for a couple of years, maybe

459
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 4: you start looking at that Chicago team in a major

460
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 4: market with a huge Serbian population. Hmmm, that could be

461
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 4: an interesting team to play for.

462
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 3: Bulls only get guys when they're well into their thirties,

463
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 3: like and they got some time.

464
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:56,200
Speaker 4: Well, how old's Lonzo Ball the premier perimeter player to

465
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 4: actually switch teams this year. He's young.

466
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,679
Speaker 1: He's young, he is prime.

467
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,400
Speaker 4: The Bolls have never signed a free agent in his prime.

468
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 4: That's a young guy. Go back to twenty sixteen. They

469
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,639
Speaker 4: signed Paul Gasol. He was one hundred years old. Go

470
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 4: back to twenty ten, they cleared cap space for Lebron

471
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 4: Dwayne Wade or Chris Bosh. They got Carlos Boozer and

472
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 4: Ronnie Brewer. Go back to two thousand, they cleared cap

473
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 4: space for Tim Duncan, Grant Hill, Tracy McGrady. They got

474
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:22,399
Speaker 4: Ron Mercer.

475
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, they got some guys. They got guys, they

476
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 3: got they got guys. They're gonna have an angry angry Dad,

477
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 3: angry LeVar. The real question is Lonzo Ball. Because you

478
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:37,159
Speaker 3: got Zach, you got Damar Luzzo. Ball's papa was pissed

479
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,120
Speaker 3: last year because he didn't handle the ball a lot

480
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 3: in New Orleans. What's gonna happen in Chicago? That's how

481
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 3: is he gonna adapt? He's just gonna play off the

482
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,359
Speaker 3: ball and do that again, because I'm sure when Lonzo

483
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:49,760
Speaker 3: got to the Bulls and there was no Damar, things

484
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 3: were looking somewhat good. He's gonna be the point guard

485
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 3: beside zac Lavie. But now things are a little different.

486
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 3: I hope it out, Chelse.

487
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,760
Speaker 2: We'll see, we'll see. Let's keep it going here, Lakers,

488
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 2: I mean a whole bunch of moves. They added another

489
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 2: old guy, Carmelo Anthony.

490
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:06,159
Speaker 3: We call that one.

491
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:07,640
Speaker 2: I mean, you can see that coming a mile away.

492
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 2: He is finally gonna play with Lebron James their la.

493
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:11,400
Speaker 1: But they made some other moves.

494
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 2: Signed Kendrick Nunn, Malik Monk and then re signed Taylor

495
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 2: Horton Tucker. Tassie, what do you make of all these

496
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:19,400
Speaker 2: Lakers moves?

497
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 3: Here?

498
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,919
Speaker 2: The old guy's got another old guy and then added.

499
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:23,159
Speaker 1: Some youth here.

500
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, Carmelo Anthony on a minimum deal. This is this

501
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 3: is a weird world we're living in. This is year

502
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 3: number nineteen for Carmelo Frickin' Anthony and he had his

503
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:37,640
Speaker 3: career high in three point percentage last year. I think

504
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:39,680
Speaker 3: it's easy to forget that at fourty point nine. So

505
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:41,159
Speaker 3: that's what he's gonna do is just gonna sit off

506
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 3: the ball and be ready to fire away. Taylor Horton Tucker.

507
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 3: They needed to sign the guy they wouldn't give up

508
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:48,640
Speaker 3: for Kyle Lowry at the trade deadline last year. Had

509
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 3: to sign him and Malik Monk. He is an interesting guy.

510
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 3: He is the you know, that typical sixth man, just

511
00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 3: get hot buddy. He is you know a j R.

512
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,159
Speaker 3: Smith light that Lebron brought over when he was in Cleveland,

513
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 3: Broun Bover from the Knicks. He's gonna be a six man.

514
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:06,480
Speaker 3: He shot forty percent from three last year, multiple games

515
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,160
Speaker 3: where he was on fire three four, five, six, seven

516
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 3: threes A couple thirty point games, but he doesn't do

517
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,479
Speaker 3: that consistently. I say all that about the offense. Bell

518
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 3: is gonna score, Monk's going to score, but are they

519
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 3: going to stop anybody? It's kind of like the bulls,

520
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,720
Speaker 3: you know, they just got to light it up. Like

521
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 3: the defense, especially amongst the littles, the guards. This is

522
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 3: their sort of their little's rotation. Westbrook, Wayne Allington, Kendrick Nunn,

523
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 3: and Malik Monk. Alex Cruso would be real nice right now.

524
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,240
Speaker 3: But I think that if you look at their lineup

525
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 3: here of Russell Westbrook starting alongside probably Wayne Allington, lebron

526
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 3: Ad Marcus Sole likely their starting center, with a bench

527
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:49,920
Speaker 3: of now this very new team of Malik Monk, Kendrick Nunn,

528
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 3: Taylor Norton, Tucker Trevor rees A Mellow and Dwight Howard.

529
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 3: They are old farts, no doubt. Will they be able

530
00:23:56,600 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 3: to move defensively? Who knows and will they? Will they

531
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 3: be able to even even get enough spacing with those

532
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 3: shooters like Wayne Ellington It's is their best shooter, but

533
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 3: he's gonna play. It's it's it's a strange mix of guys.

534
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:15,640
Speaker 3: It's it's got to play out on the floor. They've

535
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 3: had bad shooting years before and still gone to the

536
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,439
Speaker 3: finals a couple of years ago. That's how good Lebron

537
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 3: and a d are. But Lebron is getting a little

538
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 3: bit older. Westbrook's gonna shrink that space even more.

539
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 2: Uh.

540
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 3: They improved offensively, defensively a question, and they just yeah,

541
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 3: they just can't keep getting older. I think the best

542
00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 3: thing to come out of yesterday was Fred katz tweet

543
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 3: when he tweeted the Lakers just traded Pope, then signed

544
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 3: Monk and Nune next up bringing Brian Cardinal out of retired. Wow. Yeah,

545
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:48,280
Speaker 3: that's Christianity ft W right there, that's uh, that's that's

546
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,880
Speaker 3: the stuff we're looking for. I can't wait to see

547
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 3: it play out on the floor. But yeah, there's there's

548
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,400
Speaker 3: they're gonna rely on. Just guys, chuck it like Malik

549
00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:59,680
Speaker 3: Monk come on off the bench and just firing away,

550
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:03,119
Speaker 3: trying to get you twenty five because Westbrook's gonna you know,

551
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,639
Speaker 3: he's going to play the al Toro just here go

552
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,119
Speaker 3: buy me, you know, and he's beside him. It's going

553
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 3: to be Wayne Allington or Kendrick I know, Anthony Davis

554
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 3: is a Greek defender. But I'm really looking forward to

555
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:16,680
Speaker 3: seeing if a D and Lebron can whip these guys

556
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 3: into sheep on that end.

557
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,720
Speaker 2: Right right, yeah, I mean, would you bet Lee on

558
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:23,040
Speaker 2: the Lakers having the number one defense in the league

559
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 2: again last year?

560
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 3: Wait?

561
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,719
Speaker 1: No way, they if they do give a D defensive

562
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:29,919
Speaker 1: Player of the Year, I think right now, yeah, okay, yeah.

563
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:34,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, Well these moves yesterday Malik Monk, a younger player,

564
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,359
Speaker 5: Horton Tucker obviously also young, and none also young ish,

565
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 5: is sort of saved him a little bit because I

566
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 5: don't like their moves other than that at all. I

567
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 5: don't think no way Rob Polinka saw Dwight Howard in

568
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:48,160
Speaker 5: the playoffs or Trevor Reza last year. Those guys are washed.

569
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 5: Dwight I thought was really good in the championship he

570
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 5: won for the Lakers coming off the bench playing that role.

571
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 5: But he barely got off the court off the bench

572
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,200
Speaker 5: against the Hawks in that second round series, and when

573
00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 5: he came out, he was clumsy, He was fouling guys.

574
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:01,719
Speaker 5: He just couldn't seemed to do what they needed him

575
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:03,320
Speaker 5: to do, which was catch a few lobs, grab a

576
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:06,160
Speaker 5: few rebounds, and block a few shots. He's I think

577
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,920
Speaker 5: he's washed too, So I don't like those movies. Mellow, Yeah,

578
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:11,199
Speaker 5: what we saw from Portland, he's going to come out there.

579
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,160
Speaker 5: He's going to hit a few threes. Okay, that's fine

580
00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 5: him coming off the bench. But other than that, yeah,

581
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,119
Speaker 5: I think they are going to miss Caruso. If you

582
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 5: look at if you could swap Elik Monk and Kendrick

583
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 5: Nunn and to Horton Tucker for Caruso, I think they'd

584
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,160
Speaker 5: do that because he was given them even better defense.

585
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 4: I don't think they would do that because couldn't they

586
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:27,200
Speaker 4: have done that?

587
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 3: Yeah?

588
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 5: Well, so that's the thing that's.

589
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,320
Speaker 1: The suddenly turned into like the greatest player in the

590
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 1: league was just Lee did that? Why is everybody saying

591
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 1: it now? He's not crazy.

592
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 5: Crusoe understood his role and what was needed from him

593
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,440
Speaker 5: on that team. Kendrick Nunn, you know, he's okay. He

594
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,200
Speaker 5: can shoot. He can get hot too, I think nine

595
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 5: to threes in his very first game, But defensively he

596
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 5: doesn't really do anything for that team. And Malik Monk's

597
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:52,479
Speaker 5: the same. It's like if he does catch fire, as

598
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 5: Trade tast mentioned there, Yeah, sure, that's great. But that

599
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 5: comes around every four or five games, so I don't

600
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 5: know what how often. And Wayne Ellie Man, I didn't

601
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 5: even know who's still in the league. So I think

602
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 5: I don't think it was a great off season. The

603
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,120
Speaker 5: Westbrook trade was a splashy trade. You know, you got Westbrook,

604
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,200
Speaker 5: you know, the forty four million dollar guy, you come in,

605
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 5: He's a you know, a triple double man. But I

606
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,720
Speaker 5: just I'm like, doesn't Lebron work best when he's got

607
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 5: guys around who can rely on to shoot? And I

608
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 5: see these guys as being like, from time to time

609
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,239
Speaker 5: being able to do it. I don't see Westbrook being

610
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 5: able to do that, So I don't I think the

611
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,120
Speaker 5: Lakers honestly took a step back. I saw some people

612
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:34,679
Speaker 5: saying they had a great off season. I don't think

613
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:40,160
Speaker 5: they did. Like I say, Ariza was disgusting against Milwaukee.

614
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 3: He was.

615
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:42,399
Speaker 5: He was absolutely brutal.

616
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:47,119
Speaker 1: Watch marcasol in the Olympic Games. That's the other thing, Marcus,

617
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:48,919
Speaker 1: you said it task that you think he's starting.

618
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:50,920
Speaker 2: I thought the whole thing here was everybody sat down

619
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:52,920
Speaker 2: and had brunch together and he said, okay, I'll play

620
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 2: the five. Lebron said, I'll play. The four said, Okay,

621
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,720
Speaker 2: let's go, like I mean, I think I think this

622
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 2: next season a branch Anthony everybody's got And you know.

623
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,360
Speaker 5: Russell Westbrook on that team, if he's like, Okay, I'm

624
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,359
Speaker 5: just going to have to attack the rim because he can't.

625
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:13,760
Speaker 5: He can't go on the perimeter. He certainly can't do that.

626
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:15,240
Speaker 5: But if you can, if he can attack, I mean,

627
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 5: if you look at it, that's the best case scenario.

628
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 5: Westbrook could absolutely, you know, score a lot. But I

629
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,520
Speaker 5: just don't think defensively they're anywhere near as strong as

630
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 5: they were. And I just I sort of look at

631
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:28,920
Speaker 5: the floor and I'm like, oh man, if a Reze

632
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:32,360
Speaker 5: is out there, or if Dwight's out there, that they're

633
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:33,400
Speaker 5: they're losing those minutes.

634
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:34,200
Speaker 3: People.

635
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 5: No, I'm telling you they were bad. They were terrible.

636
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 1: You're gonna watch m H. Shamelines movie old.

637
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 5: Hey, listen. It catches up me very quickly, age and

638
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 5: it shows. And as as we're talking about with Brent

639
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 5: Barry there yesterday, you thought you were still hanging around

640
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 5: the league, all of a sudden you're like, oh man,

641
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,320
Speaker 5: I'm done. And a couple of those players on the

642
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 5: Lakers are done.

643
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:57,040
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, So Lee's not a found t anything to

644
00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 2: add to these moves that they did do yesterday.

645
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 4: In D two, they had to keep Taylor Horton Tucker

646
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 4: and their only young piece left. They need his upside.

647
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,360
Speaker 4: They really need him to kind of seize. I guess

648
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 4: he'll probably be their sixth man. I mean, honestly, who

649
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:11,880
Speaker 4: knows what the Lakers, They'll probably go through a lot

650
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 4: of six men. But he needs to actually show show

651
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 4: him something and fulfill on his promise. They needed this shooting.

652
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 4: They're getting that from None and Monk. We need Malik

653
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,000
Speaker 4: Monk to prove that he's really a forty percent shooter,

654
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 4: not a thirty three percent shooter, to be that Jr.

655
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 4: Smith that everybody loves. And you know, gotta give the

656
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 4: Lakers a little tip of the cap. They got four

657
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:36,120
Speaker 4: Chicago guys now in Anthony Davis, Thht, Kendrick Nunn, and

658
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:39,480
Speaker 4: I think Alfonso McKinney is still technically on the roster,

659
00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,720
Speaker 4: also a Chicago guy. That's how you win an NBA championship.

660
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 4: The more Illinois boys you got, the better chance. Okay,

661
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 4: let's slip one more in here before we take our

662
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 4: first break. But we got a bunch of other minor

663
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 4: deals to talk about.

664
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:52,080
Speaker 1: The Sixers.

665
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 2: Leley signed Andre Drummond to a one year minimum deal. Wow,

666
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:02,040
Speaker 2: I mean you want to talk time how quickly things

667
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:05,000
Speaker 2: could change, Billy? But what do you think about Drummond year?

668
00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 5: He is still only twenty seven years old? Can you

669
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 5: believe that he feels older? For one, but this is

670
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 5: a guy who's a two time All Star. I think

671
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 5: he's a two time All NBA too, Maybe only one

672
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 5: time All NBA, but anyway, Like, this is a guy

673
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,160
Speaker 5: who the Pistons could only get a second round pick

674
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,560
Speaker 5: in return from a couple of years ago. Cleveland tried

675
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 5: to trade him last year, there was no interest. He

676
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 5: went to the Lakers and didn't really work out there

677
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 5: last season, couldn't do anything in the playoffs for them,

678
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:37,800
Speaker 5: And now he's a backup in Philadelphia on the vet minimum. Like, Wow,

679
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:40,479
Speaker 5: how has he gone so bad so quickly?

680
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 1: He did?

681
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 3: He?

682
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 1: Look?

683
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 3: He didn't I thought.

684
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 5: I remember at the start of last season with the

685
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 5: sex Land I thought he was actually playing really well

686
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,080
Speaker 5: for Cleveland. I thought this is a nice role for

687
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 5: him in nice opportunity. And now he's just basically just

688
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 5: wasting away because it's like nobody values what he brings.

689
00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 5: And I think a part of it is his own

690
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 5: problem that he hasn't really shown that he can be

691
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 5: either a very consistent lockdown, you know, rim protecting defender.

692
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,479
Speaker 5: I think is his defense isn't quite as good as

693
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 5: it should be. And then on the offensive end as well,

694
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:12,560
Speaker 5: you know, he still likes to sort of settle a

695
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 5: little bit. He's tried to add the three point into

696
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 5: his game, not really working all that well.

697
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,800
Speaker 3: But now he's going to work on the.

698
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:22,840
Speaker 1: Listen, that's what I mean. He's work on the one,

699
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:24,680
Speaker 1: work on anything.

700
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,880
Speaker 5: But the great thing is he and Joel Embiid have

701
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 5: had some beef in the past. It was a lot

702
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:31,920
Speaker 5: of great tweets going around there yesterday where Joel Embiid

703
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:33,640
Speaker 5: was saying, you know, I live in his head, red

704
00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:35,920
Speaker 5: free and all that stuff. But I think so from

705
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:44,200
Speaker 5: comedical point of view, From a comedic standpoint, it's going

706
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 5: to be hilarious to see those two guys together. But

707
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 5: I mean I would rather him. I would rather have

708
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 5: him over Dwight in Philadelphia because you still feel at

709
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 5: twenty seven there's some positivity to come out of his career.

710
00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 3: I guess each hasn't cut up to him.

711
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 5: Well, it hasn't because he's not old enough yet. I

712
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 5: can't catch up with you're around the twenty seven. So

713
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,360
Speaker 5: but he looks he should have been as a free

714
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:09,640
Speaker 5: agent this season, been one of those guys someone signed

715
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,680
Speaker 5: into a five year, one hundred and forty million dollar

716
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 5: deal or something. You know, he should have been. That's

717
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 5: where his career was a few years ago. But now

718
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 5: it's like, anybody want Andre Drummond and the six is like, yeah, sure,

719
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 5: we'll take him. I mean, there's nobody competing for him.

720
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 5: So it's it's a shocker to see that he's just

721
00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 5: fallen in such a holt.

722
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 2: We got a lot of a lot of sounds going over.

723
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 2: I can hear Wilburg. Yeah, he's trying to get a

724
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 2: tree down, like two doors down from me. We shouldn't

725
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 2: have done a show today. I know we should have

726
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:37,960
Speaker 2: taken it off, but it's very cool.

727
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:41,360
Speaker 3: Come on, come on, yeah, it's comed as mister allan

728
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 3: Chan says, comedology.

729
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:51,360
Speaker 2: K anything to add to Andre Drummond going to the

730
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 2: Sixers here in a backup.

731
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 4: Role not really skeets. I'm ready to get out of

732
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,760
Speaker 4: here like Wilburt trying to escape the room. As soon

733
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,960
Speaker 4: as we started talking about Andre Drummond is the NBA's

734
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 4: bag of beans. He was traded from the Pistons to

735
00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:05,760
Speaker 4: the Calves for a bag of beans. We thought, maybe

736
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 4: the Calves are gonna be able to get a first rounder. Nope,

737
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:10,560
Speaker 4: waved him. It was a buyout for the Lakers. That's

738
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 4: a bag of beans. Now he's going to the Philadelphia

739
00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 4: seventy six Ers. Another bag of beans. Andre Bagabean's drummings.

740
00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 3: All right, it is weird that they got two monsters

741
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 3: at the center position. When teams are going, you know,

742
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,560
Speaker 3: somewhat smaller, wouldn't you want a little bit of a

743
00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 3: change it up with your backup position.

744
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:31,680
Speaker 1: Juell and Beand's gonna miss ten to twenty games.

745
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 3: That's what he's there for. He's there to eat up minutes,

746
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 3: no doubt, just like he was supposed to do that

747
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 3: with the Lakers last year. He could have been their

748
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:42,480
Speaker 3: starting center. He could have earned a monstrous contract eating minutes.

749
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 3: And that's why I think the Lakers are going to

750
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 3: keep going with Gasol and Dwight Howard because they don't

751
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:51,240
Speaker 3: want Anthony Davis's likes to get worn down. They don't

752
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,360
Speaker 3: want Lebron's likes to get worn down. Same thing in Philadelphia.

753
00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 3: John Beans probably just got to sit a ton to

754
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,000
Speaker 3: be as fresh as possible in the postseason. So he's

755
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 3: not playing on one leg. That's what Drummond is there for,

756
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,440
Speaker 3: and hopefully he plays a lot, but yeah, hopefully he

757
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,720
Speaker 3: gets a little bit more focused. Dunk it?

758
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 2: Do you think he texted or called dwell embiid before

759
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 2: this signing? It was like, Hey, I know you had

760
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:17,840
Speaker 2: some uh some back and forth with Andrea Drummond, but

761
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 2: we're thinking of adding him to the team.

762
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 1: He's going real cheap right now. We can get him

763
00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:23,279
Speaker 1: for basically nothing. You think he ran it?

764
00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:23,960
Speaker 3: Buy him t K?

765
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:24,719
Speaker 4: Yeah.

766
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 3: Probably.

767
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:30,400
Speaker 4: Here's how the phone call went. Hey, Joe, Well it's Darryl.

768
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:35,479
Speaker 4: Remember last year you said that you live rent free

769
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:39,040
Speaker 4: in Andre Drummond's head. How would you like to have

770
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:42,839
Speaker 4: him living rent free in your home? We just signed him.

771
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:46,680

00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:55,719
Speaker 1: Commit talking about things?

Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, did drop back up.

775
00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:59,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're trying to trade him. Nobody wants them more

776
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 2: asking for everything. Nobody wants them.

777
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 3: Did y'll pick up there? Because midway through it felt

778
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:08,200
Speaker 3: like a voicemail, but it was, Yeah, it.

779
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:11,839

00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 4: right now. It's the summer.

781
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:14,520
Speaker 3: He's a one word guy. Though he could have snuck

782
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:16,319
Speaker 3: it in. That could have been a conversation too.

783
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, good point.

784
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:19,759
Speaker 2: All right, let's take a break and then we'll get

785
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,720
Speaker 2: to John Collins signing his big deal with the Hawks

786
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:24,759
Speaker 2: and some of our other favorite minor deals from D

787
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:25,800
Speaker 2: two A free agency.

788
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:27,840
Speaker 1: But we got to pay the bills here, TK, what

789
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:28,040
Speaker 1: do you.

790
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,759
Speaker 4: Got, oh man? I was actually got to go and

791
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:31,520
Speaker 4: let Wilbur out of.

792
00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 1: The floor, out of the room. And we learned yesterday

793
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 1: that Lely very excited for this sweepstakes.

794
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:40,120
Speaker 4: Here.

795
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:43,680
Speaker 2: I guess this chance to go to the Open, watch

796
00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:46,359
Speaker 2: some golf. You love golf, don't you, le Well.

797
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:48,720
Speaker 5: I love going to golf. It's one of those sports

798
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:51,600
Speaker 5: that you can watch the majors. Other than that, it's

799
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,440
Speaker 5: a little tough, a little top to watch golf. You know,

800
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:58,680
Speaker 5: Tennis is the same, you know, divis cop is a

801
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:01,480
Speaker 5: little bit different, I suppose, But outside of the majors,

802
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,080
Speaker 5: you know, it's it's just a little hard to get

803
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:05,200
Speaker 5: too excited.

804
00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:07,719
Speaker 3: But we had we just had the tournament and men's

805
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,360
Speaker 3: tournament while the Olympics were going on here in Atlanta,

806
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:13,399
Speaker 3: So not the best of competition here.

807
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 5: The tennis they have it down at Atlantic Station. Down there,

808
00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:22,239
Speaker 5: basically in the car park. No one, no wonder to

809
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,319
Speaker 5: know what's to come and play. Yeah, it's like six

810
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 5: hundred degrees in the car park. It's a temporary venue. Like,

811
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:30,080
Speaker 5: come on, this is this is supposed to be a

812
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:32,760
Speaker 5: big city. We should at least have a decent tennis

813
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:35,520
Speaker 5: court arena to be able to put up a tournament.

814
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:37,719
Speaker 5: Never going to get a major player to come down,

815
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 5: and that's the condition.

816
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:40,279
Speaker 3: So it's a nice car park.

817
00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:43,839
Speaker 5: Yeah, look, if you're talking, you want to talk car parks.

818
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:45,640
Speaker 5: I think it is a really nice car park.

819
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:46,320
Speaker 3: I agree.

820
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 4: There.

821
00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:49,920
Speaker 1: They have concerts there, they've got the.

822
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,200
Speaker 3: Row up there. Yeah bang it. Yeah.

823
00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 5: But that that court, I think is is sort of

824
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 5: up all the time. They just kind of repainted just

825
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,719
Speaker 5: before the players who do turn up play, But.

826
00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:07,080
Speaker 1: I'm not sure about that. But I think they ticket out.

827
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:09,799
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I think the court is constantly there, isn't

828
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:11,239
Speaker 5: it it's actually there are I think.

829
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:13,440
Speaker 1: You're thinking of some other courts, but yeah, that are

830
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:18,399
Speaker 1: nearby anyway, went.

831
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:20,560
Speaker 5: Up at Underwood Hills where we played basketball. Those courts

832
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:22,800
Speaker 5: are as good as the ones down there at the

833
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:23,719
Speaker 5: Atlantic Station.

834
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:27,520
Speaker 3: And some players here your head to the crazy Australian

835
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:31,759
Speaker 3: Greek game and call them crazy. Were curios curious? Yeah,

836
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:36,000
Speaker 3: here's here? Was he? Yeah? I think maybe maybe I

837
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,239
Speaker 3: don't know it's you. I'm not.

838
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:40,319
Speaker 5: I'm not. I'm not jumping on ticket Master for.

839
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:40,800
Speaker 3: That one.

840
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:46,280
Speaker 5: Standing room only, ah drive past only? Yeah, drive.

841
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:51,320
Speaker 3: Why DP tickets?

842
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:54,520
Speaker 5: Who's playing number three hundred and fifty eight in the

843
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:56,600
Speaker 5: world versus a number two hundred and sixty four in

844
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:56,919
Speaker 5: the world.

845
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:04,040
Speaker 3: They had some I'm telling you corn Norri British h.

846
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:05,760
Speaker 5: British AH.

847
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:11,799
Speaker 2: Never heard of him, agreed to a five year, one

848
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 2: hundred and twenty five million dollar deal with the Hikes.

849
00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:18,200
Speaker 2: This was breaking news rate before we jumped on, so Lee,

850
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:19,440
Speaker 2: I mean, we don't have to go along on this.

851
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 2: We thought Collins would ultimately stand Atlanta. What do you

852
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 2: think of the money here?

853
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:25,560
Speaker 1: Not bad there for John Collins got it.

854
00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 5: I think the Hawk's got a bargain to be honest,

855
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:29,799
Speaker 5: I think I think that's not bad. Twenty five million

856
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:35,320
Speaker 5: a year, that's very very palatable. John Collins is a

857
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:37,440
Speaker 5: player who in his second season was like to twenty

858
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 5: and ten guy. They don't necessarily need him to even

859
00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 5: be that. They need him to be the guy they

860
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 5: had in the playoffs where he was an impactful player

861
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,759
Speaker 5: without necessarily putting up huge numbers. I think he and

862
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:50,480
Speaker 5: Trey Young have a good connection there. John Collins can

863
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:52,520
Speaker 5: spread the floor a little bit. John Collins can catch

864
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 5: those oops. John Collins plays defense, so he doesn't really

865
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:58,680
Speaker 5: have a weakness John Collins other than you won't. You

866
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:02,600
Speaker 5: don't necessarily want him to be your first guy on offense.

867
00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:04,480
Speaker 5: He wanted to be your sort of second or third guy.

868
00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 5: He actually his mid range game as well in the

869
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 5: playoffs it was really solid. So I think the Hawks

870
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,440
Speaker 5: got a very good price here for John Coins. I

871
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:14,160
Speaker 5: think he could have gotten more, but he stays they

872
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:16,200
Speaker 5: drafted him. I think he and tray You have got

873
00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:18,880
Speaker 5: a good chemistry and connection there, so I think this

874
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 5: is a very very good move.

875
00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:22,239
Speaker 2: I think smart move by him and his agents too,

876
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:25,439
Speaker 2: to wait for D two and watch Jared Allen sign

877
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:28,520
Speaker 2: for what five years, one hundred million and sort of

878
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 2: maybe set the market for him a little bit.

879
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm better than him. I've already contributed to a

880
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:33,640
Speaker 1: playoff team. Stuff like that.

881
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:35,040
Speaker 2: Maybe you'll get a little bit more money if that

882
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:37,360
Speaker 2: came into into the equation TK anything.

883
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 4: That gonna buy a lot of tickets to the Atlanta Open,

884
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 4: that's true, a lot of cars for that Carr Park.

885
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right.

886
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 4: This is nice. There's a Collins turned down what a

887
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:50,800
Speaker 4: ninety million dollars deal before the season. Halfway through the season,

888
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 4: it looked like that might have been a bit of

889
00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:56,040
Speaker 4: a misfire there Downny, But then in the second half

890
00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 4: he turned it on. The Hawks got good and he

891
00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,879
Speaker 4: looked incredible in the playoffs. Like Lee said, Collins could

892
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:02,920
Speaker 4: be a twenty and ten guy.

893
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:03,360
Speaker 5: I know that.

894
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 4: I feel like some of us may have picked him

895
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,680
Speaker 4: as a first time All Star heading into the nineteen

896
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:09,920
Speaker 4: twenty season, So you know, the talent is there. There's

897
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:11,760
Speaker 4: still I think a little bit of room for growth

898
00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:14,919
Speaker 4: and maybe playing alongside Trey Young, he gets even better

899
00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 4: as he gets further into his career. But what he

900
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:20,680
Speaker 4: gives the Hawks from a production standpoint and from a

901
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 4: glue guys, standpoint smart move to bring him back.

902
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:27,080
Speaker 3: That's a good PowerPoint presentation for coaches trying to get

903
00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:30,600
Speaker 3: guys to play team ball, because, yeah, in that nineteen

904
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:34,600
Speaker 3: twenty season, John Collins was twenty one and ten and

905
00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:39,359
Speaker 3: then he turned down that big, big offer, and then

906
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:42,520
Speaker 3: the next season here in Atlanta, seventeen and seven in

907
00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:46,120
Speaker 3: the playoffs fourteen and nine. He's fourteen and nine just now,

908
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:51,000
Speaker 3: but then gets paid twenty five MILI because he's absolutely

909
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:56,120
Speaker 3: a grinder. He played defense, hit tyler hard, didn't shoot

910
00:40:56,120 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 3: a lot, and yeah, his numbers came down, but he

911
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 3: just helped out in every facet of the game. And

912
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:05,680
Speaker 3: I hope he's willing to do that for the future

913
00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:07,839
Speaker 3: because that's what makes the Hawks really good. They need

914
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 3: him to be that because they need they need some

915
00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:14,920
Speaker 3: physical bodies align with all that incredible offense they have.

916
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,239
Speaker 2: DA two of NBA free agency, we've talked about a

917
00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 2: lot of the sort of bigger moves and drummer who's

918
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:25,239
Speaker 2: a beg of beans, but favorite minor deal a lot

919
00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:26,839
Speaker 2: of other ones. Lee, what do you want to pick

920
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:28,680
Speaker 2: or highlight here for everybody that's joining us on the

921
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:30,040
Speaker 2: stream team and listening to the podcast.

922
00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:32,520
Speaker 5: Well, I'll play the homer card here and say that

923
00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:35,200
Speaker 5: Paddy Mill's going to Brooklyn two years, twelve million, that

924
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:38,080
Speaker 5: second years a player option as well. I think that's

925
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:39,840
Speaker 5: pretty good for Brooklyn. I think it gives him a

926
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:43,080
Speaker 5: very solid, reliable guy coming off the bench. I think

927
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:45,000
Speaker 5: it's five seasons in a row. Patty's hit one hundred

928
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:48,319
Speaker 5: and fifty threes off the bench force San Antonio. That's

929
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:51,400
Speaker 5: what Brooklyn needs, basically, someone to come out there and

930
00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:54,880
Speaker 5: just keep that offense flowing. He'll play obviously behind Harden

931
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:57,480
Speaker 5: and Kyrie Irving, but when if one of those or

932
00:41:57,520 --> 00:41:59,400
Speaker 5: when one of those guys gets injured and misses a

933
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,840
Speaker 5: game or two, Paddy could potentially even slot into that

934
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:04,200
Speaker 5: starting lineup. So you get a good veteran there. He's

935
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:06,080
Speaker 5: got a bit of a relationship with Sean Marks, the

936
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:09,960
Speaker 5: GM of Brooklyn, because they were teammates in San Antonio

937
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,359
Speaker 5: or I don't know if they were teammates, but Seawan

938
00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 5: Marks was there in San Antonio when Patty was there,

939
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 5: So I think this is great. I think this is

940
00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:20,040
Speaker 5: a good signing here for Brooklyn, and Patty keeps a

941
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:22,279
Speaker 5: little bit of a power there. As well to hold

942
00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:24,680
Speaker 5: on to that second year option. That six million a year.

943
00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:27,120
Speaker 5: I think that's a still I talked yesterday about Ferkan

944
00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,680
Speaker 5: Corkman is getting five million over three years or five

945
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:33,160
Speaker 5: million per over three years. I think, you know, that's

946
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:35,040
Speaker 5: the thing. I think furk An could be better than

947
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,520
Speaker 5: Paddy Mills because he's a bit younger. But Patty's got

948
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:39,680
Speaker 5: the runs on the board right now. He's got the

949
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:42,560
Speaker 5: scoreboard and I think that's a good move for Brooklyn

950
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:45,640
Speaker 5: because they gave up. They didn't really sign Mike James Orchiosa,

951
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 5: so they had a spot there and Patty slots into

952
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 5: that perfectly.

953
00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:51,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, Brown coming back to the nets too.

954
00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 2: It's going to be a little awkward though, when Patty

955
00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:58,040
Speaker 2: Mills beats his new teammates tonight in Kevin Durant Rately,

956
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:00,960
Speaker 2: that could get a little Dacia shocks the world and

957
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:01,799
Speaker 2: beats teamsa.

958
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:03,480
Speaker 1: I don't know what happens. Then maybe he'll be off

959
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:03,799
Speaker 1: the team.

960
00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:07,279
Speaker 5: But yeah, maybe that's why Popovitch doesn't want to hang

961
00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:09,880
Speaker 5: on to Patty. He's like, you just keep baiting me.

962
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:13,320
Speaker 5: He's baiting him the last two times at flight, so interesting.

963
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a great great move. I'm sure you like

964
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:17,840
Speaker 2: this one too. Task the Patty Mills signing there and

965
00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 2: the Nets having what looks to appears to be like

966
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 2: you talked about Blake Griffin him coming back on the

967
00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:25,759
Speaker 2: veat minimum yesterday. I got a fine bench for a

968
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,000
Speaker 2: squad that's obviously top heavy still with their stars.

969
00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:31,799
Speaker 3: It is pretty crazy. Sean Marks the team that he's building, Yeah,

970
00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:33,400
Speaker 3: I got I got the hots for this team, no

971
00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:37,480
Speaker 3: doubt able. I mean it is about relationships. Yeah, Shaw

972
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:40,040
Speaker 3: Marks has a relationship with Patty Mills. Kevin Durant said

973
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:42,719
Speaker 3: after the season to Blake Griffin, we want you back.

974
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:46,520
Speaker 3: And Blake Griffin, the dude comes back on a minimum contract.

975
00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:49,280
Speaker 3: I said yesterday that it was had to be larger

976
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:52,319
Speaker 3: than a minimum deal. Blake Griffin was the second best

977
00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:55,080
Speaker 3: player after Harden and Kyri went down on the Brooklyn Nets.

978
00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:56,800
Speaker 3: He was just steady. And now he's coming back for

979
00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:58,600
Speaker 3: a minimum deal. If he can be the fourth best

980
00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:02,560
Speaker 3: player with Harden and then they're stacked. Yeah, Patty along

981
00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:06,520
Speaker 3: with Javon Carter as their their backups at the guard spot,

982
00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:09,319
Speaker 3: Blake Bruce Brown on the minimum and James Johnson who

983
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:12,480
Speaker 3: they just signed now James Johnson is a guy bounced

984
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 3: around the league a lot. He could be one of

985
00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:17,759
Speaker 3: those guys that plays with like twelve teams when all

986
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:21,000
Speaker 3: of a sudden done. But they signed him specifically to

987
00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:23,839
Speaker 3: guard one guy. If the Nets play the Bucks, he's

988
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:27,640
Speaker 3: going to guard Jannistetakoombo. Gonna get some minutes. There's that's

989
00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:30,800
Speaker 3: what he does. He is a mixed martial artist, so

990
00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:32,839
Speaker 3: he knows how to defend himself. I mean, I think

991
00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 3: that's what it's all about. It's just about getting in

992
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:38,439
Speaker 3: Yannis's way. And as a friend of the program, Bucks

993
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:42,400
Speaker 3: aficionado Frank Madden pointed out, Yannis was younger then, but

994
00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,560
Speaker 3: not sure any duo frustrated him more than the James

995
00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:48,480
Speaker 3: Johnson Hassan Whiteside combo in Miami a few years back.

996
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:51,279
Speaker 3: James Johnson was just good at being a jerk. He

997
00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:54,320
Speaker 3: could be what PJ. Tucker was for the Bucks against

998
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 3: Kevin Durant for you know, for some minutes there against Yanny.

999
00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:01,279
Speaker 3: So that's why he's there. He's already four. Hopefully he

1000
00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:03,520
Speaker 3: has something left because he is getting pretty old. He

1001
00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:06,440
Speaker 3: was in New Orleans chipping in last year. But yeah,

1002
00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:08,319
Speaker 3: if he's their PJ Tucker if he can if they

1003
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:10,080
Speaker 3: get to the finals, because it sure seems like we

1004
00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:13,360
Speaker 3: were destined for nets Lakers. He'll probably play some minutes

1005
00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 3: against Anthony Davis as well, just to get in people's way.

1006
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:22,640
Speaker 3: But yeah, Sean Mark's that's pretty incredible for me. After Yeah,

1007
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:26,560
Speaker 3: as you said, the top three ridiculously heavy, and then

1008
00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:29,680
Speaker 3: Blake Griffin probably going to start for you at a

1009
00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:32,840
Speaker 3: minimum contract, Bruce Brown could be starting at a minimum contract,

1010
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:36,319
Speaker 3: and then yeah, a bunch of bench guys chipping in Trey.

1011
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:38,400
Speaker 1: What do you have for a minor deal from D

1012
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:39,040
Speaker 1: two that you like?

1013
00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:43,640
Speaker 4: Well, Jeff Green isn't getting that all time teams record

1014
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:47,560
Speaker 4: too easily. Because ish Smith signed with the Hornets. Yep,

1015
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:50,560
Speaker 4: that'll be his twelfth team, and I'm guessing it's gonna

1016
00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:53,240
Speaker 4: be his favorite team. He was apparently born in Charlotte,

1017
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:56,719
Speaker 4: played his high school and college basketball in North Carolina,

1018
00:45:57,160 --> 00:46:01,640
Speaker 4: and I think he'll fit alongside Lamello, Terry Rosier, Gordon Hayward.

1019
00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:04,359
Speaker 4: The Hornets played their best when they're playing super fast.

1020
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 4: That's what ish Smith is the best at is playing fast.

1021
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:10,120
Speaker 4: So I think he'll be a solid third or fourth

1022
00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:13,000
Speaker 4: guard for them. And the good thing for ish Smith

1023
00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:15,400
Speaker 4: as he signed his deal four and a half million

1024
00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:18,839
Speaker 4: for one year with a team option for the second year,

1025
00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:21,800
Speaker 4: which means he might be able to find team number

1026
00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:25,160
Speaker 4: thirteen next summer, which would put him in the lead.

1027
00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:28,080
Speaker 4: Right you could even sign with the Denver Nuggets alongside

1028
00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:32,520
Speaker 4: Jeff Green. Number thirteen alongside Jeff Green sounds too good

1029
00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:35,520
Speaker 4: to be true. So yeah, ish Smith keeping the ticker

1030
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:39,239
Speaker 4: counting a couple deals. I liked Rudy Gay signing with

1031
00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:43,840
Speaker 4: the Jazz is solid. I think it's two years, twelve million,

1032
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:48,000
Speaker 4: ish twelve point one. I think officially, you know, he's

1033
00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:50,120
Speaker 4: basically a backup big at this point of his career,

1034
00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:52,680
Speaker 4: but he's still solid, so I don't mind that for them.

1035
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:55,680
Speaker 4: And I also like markif Morris going to the Heat.

1036
00:46:57,120 --> 00:47:00,560
Speaker 4: Now you're hoping for twenty twenty bubble Morris, not twenty

1037
00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:02,760
Speaker 4: twenty one Morris when it comes to at least shooting,

1038
00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:05,520
Speaker 4: because he was bad last year thirty one percent from deep.

1039
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:08,480
Speaker 4: But if you remember in the bubble down in Florida,

1040
00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:11,480
Speaker 4: he was awesome. He shot forty two percent from three

1041
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:14,399
Speaker 4: in that playoff run for the Lakers in the championship run.

1042
00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:15,239
Speaker 3: So I like it.

1043
00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:16,520
Speaker 1: Obviously, it's not a lot of money here.

1044
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,040
Speaker 2: We talked about the Heat having a bunch of spots

1045
00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:21,839
Speaker 2: to fill and basically only the Vets minimum to throw

1046
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:23,840
Speaker 2: at guys, and well, one of them's filled here. I

1047
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:26,600
Speaker 2: think in a pretty good player in Markith Morris. So

1048
00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:29,239
Speaker 2: I like both of those obviously vets that are big,

1049
00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:33,000
Speaker 2: play a little defense, and you know, both of these

1050
00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:35,719
Speaker 2: guys can obviously score a little bit, can score in

1051
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:37,640
Speaker 2: bunches at least, and you're just hoping again with Morris,

1052
00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:39,960
Speaker 2: that it's more from twenty twenty and not last year

1053
00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:41,759
Speaker 2: where it sort of fell off a cliff like thirty

1054
00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:43,880
Speaker 2: one Percentugh, it was sort of falling out of the

1055
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:44,480
Speaker 2: rotation there.

1056
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:46,360
Speaker 3: I don't know if you saw this one, Skeets, but

1057
00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:50,400
Speaker 3: the Jazz along with Rudy Gay picked up Hassan Whiteside.

1058
00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:53,279
Speaker 4: What yeah, yeah, yeah, it's in case they have a

1059
00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:55,239
Speaker 4: run into Giannis in the NBA finals. I heard it

1060
00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:56,400
Speaker 4: was one of the best defenders.

1061
00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:02,080
Speaker 3: I know you like that story. He was like all stories.

1062
00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:03,080
Speaker 3: I love it.

1063
00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:06,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, another great fit. Robin Lopez signing with the Orlando

1064
00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:09,000
Speaker 4: Magic a free agency If you ask me.

1065
00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:10,880
Speaker 1: Yep, he's got to be happy about that.

1066
00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:14,080
Speaker 2: Uh, yeah, we didn't talk about the Kings getting Len

1067
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:17,240
Speaker 2: and now the Jazz getting White.

1068
00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:21,920
Speaker 5: What about the Spurs though, I mean the Spurs off

1069
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:25,400
Speaker 5: season has been pretty bad. Seems like they've lost everybody.

1070
00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:28,920
Speaker 5: I mean, DeRozan's gone, Rudy Gon.

1071
00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:30,720
Speaker 1: Doug McDermott and Zach Collins.

1072
00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:34,280
Speaker 4: What's what's the Jack Landale scouting?

1073
00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, well Jock, Jock has a forty foot shot. No

1074
00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:39,560
Speaker 5: it does it quite but yeah he's uh.

1075
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:42,959
Speaker 1: Is that a children at a reference feeble.

1076
00:48:45,719 --> 00:48:46,000
Speaker 4: Shot?

1077
00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:50,640
Speaker 1: Okay, he's good to explain this guy for a people

1078
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:51,640
Speaker 1: know its Australian.

1079
00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:54,640
Speaker 5: Australian big. I'm surprised he hasn't been in the NBA

1080
00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:56,719
Speaker 5: before actually, or maybe he wasn't a roster of some

1081
00:48:56,880 --> 00:49:01,120
Speaker 5: leaue rossa there. But yeah, he will provide a little

1082
00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:02,480
Speaker 5: bit of offense to that team and a little bit

1083
00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:04,840
Speaker 5: of defense as well. He's obviously playing well for Australia

1084
00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:08,600
Speaker 5: right now. It's yeah, I mean he's not he's not

1085
00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:10,319
Speaker 5: going to move the needle aw that play as well.

1086
00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:13,640
Speaker 5: Two year deal. So nice to have another Australian in

1087
00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:14,000
Speaker 5: the league.

1088
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:17,400
Speaker 3: It's great. He won the MVP of something right. The

1089
00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:21,880
Speaker 3: NBL of the NBA was he is he a tournament something?

1090
00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:23,680
Speaker 4: Grand final and VP.

1091
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:26,240
Speaker 5: That's the final series? Yeah, like the finals MVP.

1092
00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:28,200
Speaker 3: Yeah that's good, sounds.

1093
00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:30,080
Speaker 1: Good, But you're not like what the Spurs have done

1094
00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:30,640
Speaker 1: overall here?

1095
00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:33,959
Speaker 5: Well overall, I think they seem to have not really

1096
00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:37,440
Speaker 5: improved overall. I mean, losing all loads of veterans, as

1097
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:40,879
Speaker 5: I mentioned Paddy and Rudy and Derosan and it was fine,

1098
00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:42,279
Speaker 5: you know, you have to move on from those guys

1099
00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:44,600
Speaker 5: as well, because they weren't a playoff team anyway. But

1100
00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:47,000
Speaker 5: I don't know, it just sort of seems that the

1101
00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:49,840
Speaker 5: sort of the Spurs always used to be able to just,

1102
00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:52,359
Speaker 5: you know, somehow become a better team. And now they've

1103
00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:54,759
Speaker 5: got their young players of course, Derek White and de

1104
00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:59,279
Speaker 5: Jonte Murray and Caldon Johnson there, so that's the thing.

1105
00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:01,279
Speaker 5: Maybe they're just saying, all right, we're gonna we're going

1106
00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:03,600
Speaker 5: to start fresh here. But it always just felt like

1107
00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:06,279
Speaker 5: the Spurs would somehow figure out a way to get better,

1108
00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:08,520
Speaker 5: but I don't think they have so far. Maybe they

1109
00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:10,879
Speaker 5: get marketing, even that's a bit of a long shot

1110
00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:13,640
Speaker 5: right now, as far as h I mean, what's his status?

1111
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:15,640
Speaker 5: He's a restricted free agent, isn't he with Chicago?

1112
00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:15,919
Speaker 3: Yeah?

1113
00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:17,359
Speaker 5: Anyway, we'll see.

1114
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:18,359
Speaker 4: Uh. Well good.

1115
00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:20,080
Speaker 1: Just back to that Jock jackline you had.

1116
00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:21,479
Speaker 3: What is that? Is a kid's story?

1117
00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:24,759
Speaker 5: You haven't heard it's it's yeah, it's I haven't heard it.

1118
00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:25,400
Speaker 1: That's what I'm asking.

1119
00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:27,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, I won't. I won't say it on air, but

1120
00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:28,759
Speaker 5: if you know you know it. If you don't, then

1121
00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:30,080
Speaker 5: I'll say I'll wait to We're off here.

1122
00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:35,000
Speaker 3: It's not a kid story.

1123
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:36,200
Speaker 4: It must not be good.

1124
00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:38,359
Speaker 5: We used to say, we used to say it as kids.

1125
00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:41,480
Speaker 1: But so Jock, Jock's got a forty foot cock.

1126
00:50:41,680 --> 00:50:45,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's you can see it.

1127
00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:49,279
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not going to get canceled for saying that.

1128
00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:50,000
Speaker 1: I don't think.

1129
00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:52,440
Speaker 5: I hope well you said it.

1130
00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:52,919
Speaker 1: I don't.

1131
00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:59,200
Speaker 3: That's his name he Jock Wow. Yeah, an athlete by

1132
00:50:59,239 --> 00:50:59,919
Speaker 3: the name of Jock.

1133
00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:03,160
Speaker 1: Yeah. Good, it's good, but have never seen it coming.

1134
00:51:04,600 --> 00:51:07,160
Speaker 2: All right, we have some other news here, little Jersey

1135
00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:10,120
Speaker 2: talk and celebration of the NBA seventy fifth anniversary season,

1136
00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:15,160
Speaker 2: Nike unveiled new Nike NBA Classic Edition uniforms, recognizing three

1137
00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:17,760
Speaker 2: franchises that have been part of the League since the beginning,

1138
00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:21,319
Speaker 2: the Celtics, the Knicks, and the Golden State Warriors, who

1139
00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:25,279
Speaker 2: were first known as the Philadelphia Warriors, were showing the

1140
00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:28,160
Speaker 2: three jersey set here to everybody on the stream team,

1141
00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:30,879
Speaker 2: everybody watching on YouTube, JD sort of cycling through them.

1142
00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:32,680
Speaker 1: T K, what do you think of these? Are you

1143
00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:35,160
Speaker 1: a fan of this in general?

1144
00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:37,920
Speaker 4: I'm a fan of these. I really like the Knicks

1145
00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:41,680
Speaker 4: and the Celtics. I like that they have kind of

1146
00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:45,200
Speaker 4: made these extra shimmery, you know. I guess that's what

1147
00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:47,160
Speaker 4: it was supposed to look like in the nineteen forties

1148
00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:50,200
Speaker 4: and nineteen fifties, also the early two thousands, if we're

1149
00:51:50,239 --> 00:51:53,760
Speaker 4: being honest. I love that they included fake belt loops

1150
00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:56,920
Speaker 4: on the shorts. I think that's hilarious. I would have

1151
00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:59,360
Speaker 4: gone the full boat and gone for actual loops, but

1152
00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:02,040
Speaker 4: that's probably a hard selling twenty twenty one. The only

1153
00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:03,960
Speaker 4: thing I don't like I don't think they should have

1154
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:04,839
Speaker 4: done a Warriors one.

1155
00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:06,280
Speaker 3: The team moved.

1156
00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:09,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is like a Philadelphia jersey that they're using,

1157
00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:12,040
Speaker 4: and they made it into a Golden State looking one.

1158
00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:14,760
Speaker 4: It's just not the same to me as the Knicks

1159
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:17,560
Speaker 4: and the Celtics, who have obviously stayed where they started.

1160
00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:21,239
Speaker 4: I guess you almost have to do this. The Philadelphia

1161
00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:25,200
Speaker 4: Warriors won the first championship of the baa way back when,

1162
00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:28,160
Speaker 4: so I can understand why they're doing it, especially since

1163
00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:31,360
Speaker 4: people are going to be watching the Warriors. But that

1164
00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:33,480
Speaker 4: one is a clear number three to me, after the

1165
00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:35,719
Speaker 4: Knicks and the Celtics, just because of the history of

1166
00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:38,759
Speaker 4: those two teams starting in the baa way back when,

1167
00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:41,839
Speaker 4: staying there, staying with their team names, staying with their

1168
00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:42,440
Speaker 4: same looks.

1169
00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:44,800
Speaker 1: Basically a little bit different than the Warriors, where the

1170
00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:48,200
Speaker 1: Huskies tasks, Yeah, there's a Toronto version. What's going on here?

1171
00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:51,919
Speaker 2: They played the first official game game next Yeah, yeah,

1172
00:52:52,360 --> 00:52:52,839
Speaker 2: sort of weird.

1173
00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:55,840
Speaker 3: That is weird. And those are nice jerseys. They've come

1174
00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:58,960
Speaker 3: out many times. They have been very shimmery. They've been

1175
00:52:59,080 --> 00:53:01,759
Speaker 3: a sweet throwbacks. I've liked them a lot.

1176
00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:02,800
Speaker 1: The Huskies.

1177
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:06,720
Speaker 3: There are Huskies, the Toronto Huskies. Yes, so many Toronto

1178
00:53:06,840 --> 00:53:09,160
Speaker 3: fans during the Dark Days wanted the Raptors to go

1179
00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:12,399
Speaker 3: back to the name of the Toronto Huskies because they're

1180
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:14,560
Speaker 3: white and blue as well. They would match the Toronto

1181
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:18,520
Speaker 3: maple leafs. It would just just be some brand Synergy there,

1182
00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:21,440
Speaker 3: but not no mold. But it's a nice throwback. It's

1183
00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:22,240
Speaker 3: a very nice throwback.

1184
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:24,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, Lee, what do you think of these jerseys here?

1185
00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:25,759
Speaker 1: This idea I love?

1186
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:28,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, I love the shorts especially. I could really see

1187
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:30,200
Speaker 5: myself wearing a pair of those ones around, maybe not

1188
00:53:30,239 --> 00:53:32,080
Speaker 5: the Celtic ones, but the Warriors and the nixt ones

1189
00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:35,200
Speaker 5: for sure, because basketball shorts are so comfortable. Yeah, oh yeah,

1190
00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:36,880
Speaker 5: they look awesome. I mean you roll up to the

1191
00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:40,320
Speaker 5: Underwood Hills to play in those ones. Definitely.

1192
00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:43,239
Speaker 2: I would love to wear those shorts and drive by

1193
00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:44,560
Speaker 2: Atlanta Open.

1194
00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:47,839
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, those shorts would be great to turn up

1195
00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:49,320
Speaker 5: in for some outdoor pick.

1196
00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:50,800
Speaker 3: Up hoops shorts.

1197
00:53:51,160 --> 00:53:54,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not What do you think of the Nike

1198
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:58,200
Speaker 2: logo slapped on these little Nikes sportswear?

1199
00:53:58,200 --> 00:54:01,200
Speaker 1: I guess logo on all three of them. Yeah, we noticed, Nike,

1200
00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:02,520
Speaker 1: We see what you're doing here.

1201
00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:07,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, just like it was. At least they did an

1202
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:10,600
Speaker 4: old school Nike logo. That's yeah, get away from them,

1203
00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:10,960
Speaker 4: that's true.

1204
00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:12,640
Speaker 1: Okay. Overall, I am a fan of these.

1205
00:54:12,640 --> 00:54:14,879
Speaker 2: I think they look pretty good for the seventy fifth

1206
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:17,920
Speaker 2: anniversary season, that's what they're they'll be celebrating there.

1207
00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:21,399
Speaker 1: Let us know thumbs upper, thumbs down on those jerseys there.

1208
00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:24,600
Speaker 3: Oh I'm dumb. I'm dumb. So these teams are gonna

1209
00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:26,480
Speaker 3: wear them. I don't know everyone.

1210
00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:30,080
Speaker 1: I guess they'll wear the Yeah, sure eight times.

1211
00:54:30,200 --> 00:54:30,480
Speaker 4: I don't know.

1212
00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:34,080
Speaker 2: I'll have to check the locker room mapp or whatever

1213
00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:36,000
Speaker 2: the heck that is that tracks all these things. I'll

1214
00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:41,800
Speaker 2: talk to Paul Lucas offline. We'll get an answer. Okay,

1215
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:44,800
Speaker 2: let's take our final break here. Then task has tweet

1216
00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:48,480
Speaker 2: of the night. Okay, back with no dungs here. We're

1217
00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:50,000
Speaker 2: gonna get to tweet to night in a second. But

1218
00:54:50,239 --> 00:54:53,799
Speaker 2: I just got an email from I don't know what's

1219
00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:54,480
Speaker 2: this guy's.

1220
00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:56,640
Speaker 3: Name, bet mgm mgm.

1221
00:54:56,840 --> 00:55:00,480
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's right, and it has the odds for

1222
00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:04,560
Speaker 2: tonight's Australia versus US A game. And I bring this

1223
00:55:04,719 --> 00:55:07,839
Speaker 2: up because on yesterday's show, we uh had a little

1224
00:55:07,880 --> 00:55:11,400
Speaker 2: bet made between the American TK and the Australian leley.

1225
00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:12,000
Speaker 1: Over this game.

1226
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:14,160
Speaker 2: I came up with the line, I just like, I

1227
00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:17,480
Speaker 2: don't know what it is. I'm gonna say the Americans

1228
00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:20,160
Speaker 2: are favored by eight and a half. The line is

1229
00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:23,759
Speaker 2: twelve is what I'm seeing here, so you not that

1230
00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:27,360
Speaker 2: far off. But the loser of this bet between these

1231
00:55:27,360 --> 00:55:29,160
Speaker 2: two guys, the covers coming into play, I guess we're

1232
00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:30,239
Speaker 2: using are we using my line?

1233
00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:32,120

1252
00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:27,200
Speaker 5: And yeah, I read right by, that's a great place

1253
00:56:27,239 --> 00:56:29,719
Speaker 5: to watch John Mellencamp, And I actually recorded Jack and

1254
00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:30,960
Speaker 5: Diane when he sang that there.

1255
00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:33,800
Speaker 3: I was looking back in the story.

1256
00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:38,040
Speaker 1: I never understood while you're one of these people filming

1257
00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:40,959

1258
00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:42,800
Speaker 5: I do no, no, listen, I've said this before. I

1259
00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:44,680
Speaker 5: don't sit there with the camera like this. I sit

1260
00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:46,520
Speaker 5: with it like this. So I'm still sort of like,

1261
00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:50,040
Speaker 5: why recording it?

1262
00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:50,880
Speaker 3: What are you to do with it?

1263
00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:53,440
Speaker 5: Well, I'm glad I recorded it on this time because

1264
00:56:53,560 --> 00:56:56,120
Speaker 5: John Mellencamp got the crowd to sing and this, and

1265
00:56:56,239 --> 00:56:58,520
Speaker 5: the crowd got it wrong, and John Mellencamp got upset

1266
00:56:58,560 --> 00:57:00,000
Speaker 5: at the crowd, so he said.

1267
00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:02,960
Speaker 2: Were wait, wait, wait, wait, wait waiting, Diane.

1269
00:57:07,640 --> 00:57:09,440
Speaker 5: to you. But it's a it's a great moment for

1270
00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:12,080
Speaker 5: that's John Mellencamp pans.

1271
00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:16,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, sure it camp has I mean that recorded.

1272
00:57:18,080 --> 00:57:18,640
Speaker 1: That moment?

1273
00:57:19,160 --> 00:57:23,280
Speaker 3: Well, I figured I figured you pulled in or showed

1274
00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:25,360
Speaker 3: up with your little tripodly because it's a it's a

1275
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:27,480
Speaker 3: great venue you get. You can have a little table there.

1276
00:57:27,520 --> 00:57:29,240
Speaker 3: You could just put the tripot on. I know you're

1277
00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:31,760
Speaker 3: like rolling with your TRIPI you can just right down there,

1278
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:34,920
Speaker 3: click record and then just watched the Yeah.

1279
00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:39,120
Speaker 5: It's true though, I do I do love to take

1280
00:57:39,160 --> 00:57:41,400
Speaker 5: the tripod, because it is great when you can set

1281
00:57:41,400 --> 00:57:43,520
Speaker 5: it up like that. Problem is a concert. You know,

1282
00:57:43,600 --> 00:57:45,680
Speaker 5: you've got a few yahoos who, like, you know, sort

1283
00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:47,960
Speaker 5: of they can't sit still or stand still whatever they're doing,

1284
00:57:48,000 --> 00:57:49,880
Speaker 5: they're moving around, so you have to sort of be

1285
00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:52,520
Speaker 5: ready to move around the camera as well. If you

1286
00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:54,200
Speaker 5: haven't fun, I don't mind. It's fine.

1287
00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:58,120
Speaker 1: You're doing the Chili Dogs version though, right, I don't

1288
00:57:58,160 --> 00:57:58,880
Speaker 1: really want to do that.

1289
00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:01,240
Speaker 5: I mean I can't. I can't that that one can't

1290
00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:04,280
Speaker 5: be replicated, you know. I think just the bad version

1291
00:58:04,320 --> 00:58:06,240
Speaker 5: of John Mellencamps would be better. I think.

1292
00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:07,160
Speaker 3: So we'll see.

1293
00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:08,560
Speaker 5: Maybe I won't even have to do it at all.

1294
00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:09,000
Speaker 3: Who knows.

1295
00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:13,600
Speaker 2: Okay, everybody bring your tripods tomorrow to when we find

1296
00:58:13,640 --> 00:58:15,439

1297
00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:16,919
Speaker 2: eight and a half. That's the Skeets line.

1298
00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:18,840
Speaker 1: Americans got to win by nine or more.

1299
00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:21,600
Speaker 3: Of course Lee's going to agree to that. I mean,

1300
00:58:21,640 --> 00:58:28,640
Speaker 3: it's smaller than the actual life anyways, it should be.

1301
00:58:28,760 --> 00:58:30,720
Speaker 4: Well, it's an easier cover for the US too, right.

1302
00:58:32,760 --> 00:58:33,520
Speaker 4: The white is twelve?

1303
00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:36,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, that's why Lee said, no, give me that line.

1304
00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:39,040
Speaker 4: Oh well, I mean the Americans are gonna win my

1305

00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:41,720
Speaker 3: That's it done there. It should be fun.

1307
00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:44,880
Speaker 1: No, we're going eight and a half because Great.

1308

1326
00:59:34,760 --> 00:59:38,440

1327
00:59:38,440 --> 00:59:40,360
Speaker 3: saying it ain't about a tweet at all. It's just

1328
00:59:40,880 --> 00:59:43,480
Speaker 3: I'll show you the internet. So here we go. Here

1329
00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:47,919
Speaker 3: is the internet. I'm taking year round, starting with Dwight

1330
00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:51,840
Speaker 3: Howard's Instagram post. Now I'm focusing on Ben Simmons ow

1331
00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:54,840
Speaker 3: current seventy six or Ben Simmons was addressed by former

1332
00:59:54,920 --> 00:59:57,120
Speaker 3: six or Dwight Howard. He said his goodbye to Philly

1333
00:59:57,200 --> 01:00:01,360
Speaker 3: and on ig the standard stuff, levea missie, you're the best.

1334
01:00:01,680 --> 01:00:04,480
Speaker 3: And then at the end, at the end, this has

1335
01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:06,680
Speaker 3: nothing to do with Ben Simmons. This is Dwight Howard

1336
01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:08,760
Speaker 3: saying goodbye to Philadelphia. He said thank you to the

1337
01:00:08,960 --> 01:00:11,800
Speaker 3: entire seventy six or staff. We will always be family.

1338
01:00:12,240 --> 01:00:18,320
Speaker 3: And Ben ben Jendes went at him about his free

1339
01:00:18,440 --> 01:00:21,680
Speaker 3: throw routine, about it, about his free throw form. It

1340
01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:22,760
Speaker 3: is strange from tors.

1341
01:00:22,880 --> 01:00:24,400
Speaker 1: Maybe they got a little insert.

1342
01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:26,640
Speaker 3: They're doing this.

1343
01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:31,920
Speaker 5: Did you see the little video going around yesterday, skeets.

1344
01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:35,280
Speaker 5: This one sparticularly for you Ben Simmons, Like you know,

1345
01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:38,400
Speaker 5: he was going up against somebody somewhere.

1346
01:00:38,120 --> 01:00:41,200
Speaker 3: There it is. I'm showing you the end.

1347
01:00:42,480 --> 01:00:45,160
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, grand.

1348
01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:48,880
Speaker 3: Like Ben is working on the jumper. Let me let

1349
01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:51,560
Speaker 3: me let me paint the picture for this again, are you.

1350
01:00:53,120 --> 01:00:53,400
Speaker 1: Buddy?

1351
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:56,360
Speaker 3: This is from a well, this is exactly the same

1352
01:00:56,400 --> 01:00:58,720
Speaker 3: thing from a couple of years ago that he instagrammed out.

1353
01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:01,720
Speaker 3: This is his trainer, Chris Johnson put it on his story.

1354
01:01:01,760 --> 01:01:04,560
Speaker 3: It's Ben gets the ball at the three point line,

1355
01:01:04,640 --> 01:01:06,959
Speaker 3: backs down his defender, a couple steps in the mid range,

1356
01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:11,280
Speaker 3: fade away, and he hits a shot. It's literally the

1357
01:01:11,360 --> 01:01:12,720
Speaker 3: same thing from a couple of years ago.

1358
01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:14,920
Speaker 4: I can't miss how many times did he shoot it

1359
01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:15,280
Speaker 4: right there?

1360
01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:18,280
Speaker 1: Unbelievable fare.

1361
01:01:18,320 --> 01:01:20,280
Speaker 3: I got more of the internet here and Ben Ben

1362
01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:23,560
Speaker 3: was feisty. It was feisty on the internet. I guess

1363
01:01:23,600 --> 01:01:27,800
Speaker 3: this the little run had him going because he put

1364
01:01:27,880 --> 01:01:30,640
Speaker 3: up a photo of himself near the free throw line

1365
01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:33,920
Speaker 3: and apparently he looks like he's going to shoot the ball.

1366
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:38,480
Speaker 3: And that's when Worldwide Chad commented he really acting like

1367
01:01:38,520 --> 01:01:42,600
Speaker 3: he was about to shoot and Ben simmons he obviously

1368
01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:45,960
Speaker 3: went to Worldwide Chad's profile because he replied to that

1369
01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:49,680
Speaker 3: comment and said, quote, your lips look like you got

1370
01:01:49,800 --> 01:01:54,520
Speaker 3: stung by a bee. Nutty professor ass He just went

1371
01:01:54,560 --> 01:01:57,040
Speaker 3: out of it, And I mean, making fun of a

1372
01:01:57,120 --> 01:02:00,480
Speaker 3: man's looks not cool. But this is Worldwide Chad. Get

1373
01:02:00,640 --> 01:02:05,240
Speaker 3: maybe get him some some followers. World Wide Chad is

1374
01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:08,440
Speaker 3: I don't think so. I don't know. I didn't go

1375
01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:09,920
Speaker 3: to his profile. I'm not sure if he has a

1376
01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:12,640
Speaker 3: lot of followers. But yeah, give him a little love

1377
01:02:12,720 --> 01:02:16,760
Speaker 3: for getting poked at by Ben Simmons calling him netty

1378
01:02:16,800 --> 01:02:21,160
Speaker 3: professor ass his lips got stung by a bee, Ben Simmons.

1379
01:02:21,240 --> 01:02:24,400
Speaker 2: That is why Chad living rent free and Ben Simmons head.

1380
01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:27,560
Speaker 2: I guess when's Ben Simmons getting traded? That's all I

1381
01:02:27,640 --> 01:02:30,680
Speaker 2: care about it. Make it Happen'd be perfect timing if

1382
01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:32,360
Speaker 2: that were to happen later today, so we could talk

1383
01:02:32,360 --> 01:02:34,840
Speaker 2: about it on tomorrow show, along with us talking about

1384
01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:38,040
Speaker 2: those two Olympic Games that are happening super late tonight

1385
01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:40,120
Speaker 2: and then in the early morning Slovinia. By the way,

1386
01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:43,439
