But more importantly, I like that he's activated 178 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 3: with this, that he's taking it on his shoulders, that 179 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 3: he's out here shooting text messages. We hear de Marcus smart, he' 180 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 3: shooting text to DeAndre and trying to build a team, 181 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 3: trying to be participatory and now being a Laker as 182 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 3: he looks like he's gonna get the deal eventually, a 183 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 3: four year deal worth you know, two and a quarter 184 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 3: one hundred million so I actually like what I'm seeing 185 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 3: and the fact that he's bounced back, and we talked 186 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 3: about this last week. 187 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 4: I believe it was Friday. 188 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 3: I expect Luca now to get a ring in the 189 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 3: next four years because to me, you realize you can 190 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 3: be better. You're great, was great MVP candidate all the time, 191 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 3: kind of one of those guys, but you can be better. 192 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 3: And now you put yourselves in a situation to me 193 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 3: where you got a couple of players I don't think 194 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 3: they're good enough to really contend, But I do think 195 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 3: he put himself in a position, Martin where he can 196 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 3: really be an MVP candidate again, because I think that's 197 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 3: gonna work in his favor. 198 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 4: Usually, you ain't have these criterias. 199 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 3: You're the best player on the best team, so they 200 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 3: kind of give it to you, even if it's like 201 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 3: some other person where you had a number one seed 202 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 3: by far, we gotta give it to you. 203 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 5: And Luka Rashid the MVP votes in that scenario before, right, 204 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 5: And I think he's gonna get it this year because 205 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 5: his team won't be loaded and he's gonna ball out 206 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 5: and keep his team in a you know, four to 207 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 5: six seven seed ish and people will be like, man, 208 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:51,559 Speaker 5: this might be the year he gets that MVP. 209 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 3: But bottom line for me, I like this, And again, 210 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 3: they got Lebron ain't gonna be here much longer. So 211 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 3: I think the window is now open for the Lakers. 212 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 3: The Lebron or the Luca era no longer the Lebron era. 213 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,719 Speaker 3: And I like that he's took it personally. And I 214 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 3: like again that he didn't just say I've been good enough. 215 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 3: He went and wanted to get better and we'll see 216 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 3: how foot how long it lasts. But a lighter, healthier 217 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:16,079 Speaker 3: motivated Luca. I like that for La. 218 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,559 Speaker 4: I mean, I like it too. Absolutely. 219 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 5: You know, there's no way not to like it, right, 220 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 5: there's nothing to not like about this if you're a 221 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 5: Los Angeles Laker fan. But I just wanted we should 222 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 5: all just take a moment as a country and. 223 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 4: Just okay, we're plotting. What are we are plotting? 224 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 5: Shout out to Luka Doncis for showing up to work 225 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 5: this summer. Congratulations America. He did something that you and 226 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,559 Speaker 5: I and everybody else here does all the time. Professional 227 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 5: athlete works out more at eleven. I mean, like, ultimately, 228 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 5: you know what the take is from this Nico Harris 229 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 5: has to print this article out and pin it on 230 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 5: his fridge. You mean to tell me that this article 231 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 5: said that Luka Doncic said, for the first time build 232 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 5: a weight routine to help them build total body strength. 233 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 5: Luca's been in the NBA for five years now, six 234 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 5: years now, yeah, right, six years now. This has also that. Oh, 235 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 5: when he was in Dallas, he listened to everything the 236 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 5: Mavericks had to say, but then when he would go 237 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 5: back to Europe would get limited information. You mean to 238 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 5: tell me that the Mavericks are just you know, hey, 239 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 5: figure it out on your own. 240 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 4: I refuse to believe that's the case now. 241 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 5: I can't believe that's the case, especially an organization like Dallas, 242 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 5: which is scouted internationally so well. They draft, They got 243 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 5: people over there right now, right, it's somebody's job over 244 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 5: there to work Luca dodgers out, and you know it 245 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 5: is somebody. It didn't work this whole team, Luca, though, 246 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 5: seemed like it was happening more and more and more. 247 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 5: You mean to tell me that now we are just 248 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 5: now intermitted fasting. We're just now figuring that intermitted fasting. 249 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 5: I've been doing it for the last eight months and 250 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 5: people keep coming. People think I've been in the gym. 251 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 5: I haven't stepped into gym once. All I do is 252 00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 5: I don't eat before two o'clock. 253 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 4: Right. He says this like. 254 00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 5: Nico Harrison is vindicated off of this, because if you're 255 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 5: telling me that none of this was happening before, that's 256 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 5: the implication that none of this was happening before that 257 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,719 Speaker 5: he never was going to do it, especially if you 258 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:19,079 Speaker 5: gave him that money. Now it worked out for the 259 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 5: Lakers and more than likely to your point, I'm not 260 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 5: saying this to refute anything that you just spent the 261 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 5: first however long, laying out. I think all of that 262 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:32,079 Speaker 5: is true. MVP is on the floor absolutely championship. I 263 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 5: mean we saw it. Yah, we saw fat Luca do it, 264 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 5: So why can't skinny Luca do it? 265 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 4: Right? You think it only be better? Right? 266 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 5: But that was my initial takeaway from this is two takeaways. First, 267 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,959 Speaker 5: interesting that he only mentioned Lebron's name only the writer 268 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 5: mentioned Lebron's name and Luca didn't mention it once. The 269 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 5: narrative once Luca got traded here was that he was 270 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 5: going to study with Lebron. He references Michael Jordan and 271 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:59,679 Speaker 5: Kobe Bryant in the article not Lebron. James found that interesting, 272 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 5: but more than anything, to me, this was vindication, like 273 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 5: you had to get what you could because if you 274 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 5: paid him everything, he was never going to do this 275 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 5: type of stuff. 276 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 3: Here's where I have issue with what you're saying on paper. 277 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 3: I get what you're saying, and I wouldn't be mad 278 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,839 Speaker 3: if it was for Luca, for Ann Edwards, wouldn't have 279 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 3: been mad, if it was looking for Tatum, wouldn't have 280 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 3: been mad, if it were looking for you know, Sga, 281 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 3: wouldn't have been mad. But you can't tell me we 282 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,679 Speaker 3: believe a catastrophic injury is on the way for him 283 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 3: because he doesn't take care of his body. And then 284 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 3: you go and get Anthony Davis and then you pair 285 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 3: him with Kyrie Irving, six year older Anthony Davis. You 286 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 3: know what he's not even I'm not saying a catastrophic injury. No, 287 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,680 Speaker 3: I'm talking about what Nico. Nico's saying. He believe a 288 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,319 Speaker 3: catastrophic injuries around the corner. And you know, we believe 289 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,080 Speaker 3: in all of this, And I'm My biggest issue with 290 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 3: it was I'm I that would have been shocking because 291 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 3: anybody waking up reading Luca is traded, it's crazy. But 292 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 3: if you're doing it and you're getting Anthony Davis not 293 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 3: a Hall of picks, that to me is the crazy part. 294 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 3: Because he's often injured, you're pairing what often injured Kyrie. 295 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,679 Speaker 3: He's six years older. The math wasn't mathing, but that to. 296 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 5: Me, I'm not saying that the Hall was great, right, 297 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 5: but I'm saying the if I'm staring down the barrel 298 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 5: of making Luca doncis the highest paid player in the 299 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 5: NBA or moving him, and I'm reading this article expected 300 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 5: to think that this is groundbreaking news right now, there's 301 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 5: no way as a GM, I'm tying my future to 302 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:28,680 Speaker 5: that guy. 303 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 3: The only other issue I have with that is, and 304 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 3: I mentioned this at certain points, this happens with athletes. 305 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 3: This happens as applicable in any walk of life. When 306 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 3: you and we know this, we talk about people who 307 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 3: are overly talented, naturally talented, you name the thing in 308 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,680 Speaker 3: life they've been able to rely on that talent. 309 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 4: Luca has been a professionals. 310 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 3: He was like thirteen, literally, and to me, what I 311 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 3: read is he's worked hard, you know, but that next level. 312 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 3: You talk about a Kobe Bryant, that maniacal level, he 313 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 3: probably hadn't approached that. And I think to me was 314 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 3: that what was Dallas doing to get him to that level? 315 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 3: And maybe he couldn't, you know, maybe they just couldn't. 316 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 3: Maybe he needed the kick in the butt of being 317 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:10,839 Speaker 3: traded to kind of take it to that next level. 318 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,439 Speaker 3: But I do believe some people have to There are 319 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 3: a there's an ability to take it to another level. 320 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 3: And you just didn't know that because all I've ever 321 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 3: been was good like Lebron James, as hard as he 322 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 3: works now and we know and all this, I guarantee 323 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 3: you if he would say I wasn't twenty two three four, 324 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 3: I was working out and I was in a gym, 325 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 3: But that next level I had to go to Miami 326 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 3: and learn. Oh shoot, I got with d Waite. He 327 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 3: talks about it. I got with dv Wade. I saw 328 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 3: work on levels. And so I think sometimes people have 329 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 3: to get to another level, they have to see it, 330 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 3: they have to have a kick in the butt, that 331 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 3: something to having an experience before they take it to 332 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 3: the next level. Which is why Kobe is so revered 333 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 3: in that regard because he seems to be somebody at 334 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 3: that engine from go, and I think not everybody's born 335 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 3: that way. And again, I don't care if it's a salesperson. 336 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 3: I don't care. If it's a singer, I don't care. 337 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 3: If it's a dancer, I don't care. If it's an 338 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 3: NBA player. Some people, it takes a moment when you go, oh, 339 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 3: that's the Kobe Ryan coming too. The Olympics, Lebron and 340 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 3: mellow they all stars, first team NBA, you know, we 341 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 3: the guys and KD. Then they see Kobe and they go, oh, 342 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 3: there's another level. And I just think sometimes you need that. 343 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 3: I think Luca through this situation, got that. But I 344 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 3: totally get what you're saying. If they don't trade him, 345 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 3: does he ever get there? We don't know, But I 346 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 3: get what you're saying. 347 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 5: For this article to come out like this, and I 348 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 5: get what you're saying about the Lebron and going to 349 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 5: see and being at the next level. The problem is 350 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 5: now the author in this actually wrote that Luca jumped 351 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 5: forty two inches at the combine, which A didn't have 352 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 5: any and go to the combine and beef Luka never. 353 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 4: Dnty in forty two inches. 354 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 5: But if you go back and watch Luca and then 355 00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 5: bubble highlights with nobody in the stands and education reform 356 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 5: on the back of people's jerseys, Luka Doncis was. 357 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 4: Dunking the ball. 358 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 5: He was going to the room aggressively and dunking the ball, 359 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 5: and you could see a progression in his game to 360 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 5: a more on the floor type of game going year 361 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 5: in year round. 362 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 4: He was getting. 363 00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 5: Heavier, like he was moving physically in the wrong direction. Right, 364 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 5: And so that's the thing is like you look at 365 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 5: sure like even a guy like Dwight Howard, right, he 366 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 5: was never all the way locked in, super talented, but never, 367 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 5: I think, to his own admission would tell you that 368 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 5: was never all the way locked in, never locked in 369 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 5: on diet never. 370 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 4: But he never like got out of shape. No, no, no, 371 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. 372 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 5: Like if he had took it to another level, we 373 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 5: would have seen whatever that could have been. Maybe he 374 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 5: could have actually lived up to the baby shack and 375 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 5: all of that. But Luca, we saw it going the 376 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 5: other way. And I think that's where you see this 377 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 5: Men's Health article. And I was supposed to be like, oo. 378 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 3: Look out, now the only other point, I add real 379 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 3: quick and then we'll break here. But I do wonder 380 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 3: if for understating his injuries and as somebody right now 381 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 3: who's at a bum knee and at some point I'm 382 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 3: staring down the barrel of probably a knee replacement. That's 383 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 3: a real thing when you can't do work out the 384 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 3: way in which you want to. And I do wonder 385 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 3: if Luca, we've kind of just swell, he nicked up. 386 00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 3: He's nicked up, and he's like, dude, I can't give 387 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 3: you what you want and also be playing during the 388 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,960 Speaker 3: season and be in the best shape.

Kind of been a 543 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 3: miia for the last three months or so. He popped 544 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 3: up at the Big twelve media day. We got to 545 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 3: see him there a little bit. But he's been on 546 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 3: and off. You see him a handful of times. He 547 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 3: might do something on social media, but come to find 548 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 3: out on a serious note, he had been dealing with 549 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:46,400 Speaker 3: bladder cancer. Now this is where correct me if I'm wrong, 550 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:51,120 Speaker 3: Rob g This is where gets sketchy. Some purports are 551 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 3: his bladder was removed period. Others are some of his 552 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 3: bladder was removed, right, yes, part of it with the 553 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,119 Speaker 3: part of it with the tumb I should tell you 554 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 3: for sure. 555 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 5: He said today he depends on depends. That's a quote 556 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,120 Speaker 5: from him. No, it's absolutely a quote from him. So 557 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 5: he says he's up and using the bathroom four or 558 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 5: five times a night into a colostomy bag. 559 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I saw the bag. 560 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 3: If you follow him on the gram he uh, there's 561 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,440 Speaker 3: a video of him, you know, fishing, and then he 562 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 3: kind of like fades pans and then you see the 563 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:26,399 Speaker 3: bag just sitting on I don't know, a bench or 564 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 3: so so obviously a tough situation for him, what he's 565 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:32,440 Speaker 3: going through. He's been through so much physically over the 566 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 3: last decade twelve years or so. He had a staff infection, 567 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 3: he had infection in his leg after getting some some 568 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 3: footwork done to the tune of where he's got kind 569 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,120 Speaker 3: of rough legs, scarred up legs, and then obviously he's 570 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 3: missing toes on his foot and now all of a 571 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:51,199 Speaker 3: sudden this he's had blood clots and he's just had 572 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,160 Speaker 3: a lot going on physically. And one of the things 573 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 3: I love about him Martin is that, and it's a 574 00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 3: trait that honestly, I want to have more of. I 575 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 3: think I'm I'm okay with it. I think he found 576 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 3: the perfect balance of not telling you what's going on 577 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 3: per se, but also telling you and keeping a great disposition, 578 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 3: keeping a very you know, he's his faith in God 579 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,200 Speaker 3: and his faith in you know, the power of God 580 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 3: in his life, and he just keeps a great attitude 581 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 3: of moving forward and encouraging. And I said that to 582 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 3: say he's not hiding things where we are. You know, 583 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:22,879 Speaker 3: some people hard and then you find out they're going 584 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:24,879 Speaker 3: through it, and maybe something bad happens because they've been 585 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,879 Speaker 3: harboring something he just doesn't overly have to share, but 586 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 3: he even when he does. When he was going through 587 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:31,879 Speaker 3: the foot stuff, he's like, hey man, he kept his 588 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 3: faith and I love that about him. As he's been 589 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 3: going through this, and he said he's ready to coach. 590 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:41,159 Speaker 3: He's ready to go year three Colorado, and he's up 591 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,960 Speaker 3: for the task. Obviously he's going to be difficult. Obviously 592 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 3: we're all wishing him the best with this. But just 593 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 3: remarkable all that he's been going through. Now knowing this 594 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 3: and given everything that's going on, right you're coaching, you 595 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 3: got you know, you got sons plural, you got other 596 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 3: kids that's your an adopted son if you will, and 597 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 3: Travis Hunter and all trying to go to the league. 598 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 3: And I just think that's remarkable all that he's been 599 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 3: able to do, and again coming off of so many 600 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 3: other surgeries that he's had to go through. 601 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, he said today, I listened today the first five 602 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 5: ministers of his availability. He said today, he's had fourteen 603 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 5: surgeries in the last two years. He has had more 604 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 5: surgeries out of the game than he did in the game, 605 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 5: which is generally works in reverse for. 606 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 4: Most NFL players. 607 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 5: You're going under the knife while you're playing, as opposed 608 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:32,119 Speaker 5: to after the fact. But and I k everything you 609 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 5: say in terms of he looked like he was in 610 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 5: very good spirits today. He looked like I think, I 611 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 5: think to your point of he keeps his faith so on, 612 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:46,959 Speaker 5: he also does a good job of presenting a very 613 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,719 Speaker 5: strong front in moments like this. 614 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,720 Speaker 4: And I think, not to go off on a too 615 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:53,880 Speaker 4: far of a tangent. 616 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 5: But like a lot of people who are like twenty 617 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 5: years old or twenty five and under could take note 618 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 5: and like, you don't have to post everything every single 619 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 5: step off the way, you know, And I think that's 620 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,680 Speaker 5: something that we see a lot out of a lot 621 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 5: of people who are younger and have grown up on 622 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 5: the internet. Deon Sanders, at each moment of these different 623 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 5: health instances that he's had, has both shared what happened, 624 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 5: but also shared in a way that projected his strength 625 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 5: and his ability to deal in his faith and so on. 626 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 4: My secondary takeaway from this was. 627 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:35,199 Speaker 5: We might have to give Dion some grace here and 628 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 5: also Shadure Sanders from grace. And ultimately it's not about 629 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 5: what happened today, but about the draft. I think that 630 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 5: if you went back to the way that we talked 631 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 5: about Shador leading up to the draft process and the 632 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:55,119 Speaker 5: way that leading up to the draft process and immediately 633 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 5: following there was a lot of how on earth My 634 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 5: biggest question, how on earth could they have been so wrong? 635 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 5: They're not having that Day one draft party if he 636 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 5: thinks he's a fifth round pick, right, Like that's Deon 637 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 5: Sanders knows enough to know. 638 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 4: About the optics of what this looks like. 639 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,119 Speaker 5: You know, if your son's are going to be drafted 640 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 5: for seventy two more hours, maybe you order the catering 641 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,840 Speaker 5: for Saturday afternoon instead of Thursday night. 642 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 4: But and I have no reason to believe he's lying. 643 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 5: But what Dion said today was, you know, I was 644 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 5: essentially lying to my kids, telling them that the reason 645 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 5: I was going to the doctor so much was from 646 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 5: my feet, right because I wanted my boys to focus 647 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 5: on their once in a lifetime opportunity to make it 648 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 5: to the NFL and play at a high level. And 649 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 5: so fourteenth thirty reason two years, you know, dealing with 650 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 5: all of this this offseason. He just recently he still 651 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 5: got a colostomy bag and he's going to the bathroom 652 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 5: four or five times a Night tells me that this 653 00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 5: is not something that was resolved months and months ago. 654 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 4: This was something that resolved weeks ago. 655 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 3: Right, and may not even yeah, right, they say he's 656 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 3: cancer free, but obviously the post. 657 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 4: Right, and he's not all the way resolved. 658 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 5: Resolved is probably the wrong verb to you, But to me, 659 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 5: it's like, I went and I came on these areas 660 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 5: and was like, how could Dion Sanders, one of the 661 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 5: most plugged men who can seemingly hire just go through 662 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 5: his contact list and his iPhone and hire the next 663 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 5: It's just a coach of Colorado because all of them 664 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 5: played football, all of them Hall of famers. 665 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,479 Speaker 4: You want to name Michael, you name it, can go 666 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 4: get on the sideline. 667 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 5: You know, it's a Hollywood Walk of Fame on the 668 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 5: sidelines of Colorado. How could he even so off about 669 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 5: the way the NFL felt about his son, because I 670 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 5: always thought that Chador was a probably a second or 671 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 5: third round pick that they got drafted in the fifth 672 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,480 Speaker 5: round because he failed the interviews, right, he failed the 673 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 5: job interview part of it. Well, now I have maybe 674 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 5: a little bit of a better understanding as to why 675 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 5: the perception seemingly out of Boulder and in the NFL 676 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 5: was so wide, Dean had a lot more. 677 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 4: Going on than just getting his sons ready for the draft. 678 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean he might have been for the first 679 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 3: time disconnected or or I mean, listen, two things can 680 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 3: also be true or well, I don't know exactly your 681 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 3: you know, your take on it, or well, my thought 682 00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 3: still being because of the interview fail because of Dion 683 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,560 Speaker 3: being so much, and because of how NFL sometimes feels 684 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 3: about backup quarterbacks and guys who are gonna be the 685 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 3: circumstance around them, the pomping circumstance. 686 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 4: I don't want that around. 687 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 3: Hey, if I'm not gonna play this kid for another 688 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,360 Speaker 3: two years, three years, he's I view him as a backup, 689 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 3: a third or fourth round pick ultimately would be a fifth, 690 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 3: then why do I want to bring him his fanfare, 691 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 3: his X amount of millions of followers that I'd have 692 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 3: to deal with, put him in, put him in people 693 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 3: who might come to the stadium, and obviously his father, 694 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 3: what y'all doing, baby, play my son, baby? You know, 695 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 3: going through all the day. And so I think there's 696 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 3: an element still that people are like, I don't want 697 00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 3: to deal with that for a guy that I view 698 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 3: as a backup in a year where not a lot 699 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 3: of guys teams needed quarterbacks. So I think two things 700 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 3: he could have been clearly not could have He was 701 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 3: clearly going through something dion and maybe not as tapped 702 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 3: in as he normally would be. When you're dealing with 703 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,480 Speaker 3: cancer the word now, I'm dealing with a bum knee, right, 704 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 3: it is not. 705 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 5: Like a torn ligament or something like that. That's something 706 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 5: he has experienced with. 707 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:24,800 Speaker 4: Even a toe. Unfortunately they said he we gotta cut 708 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 4: another toe. 709 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 3: He's been through that. Cancer is a whole different bag 710 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 3: and a different part of your body. So I do 711 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 3: think there's an element of what you're saying that he 712 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 3: had to deal with this. It may not have been 713 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 3: as locked inn or tapped in, but I still believe 714 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 3: there's an element of we didn't like hole cocky, how arrogant, 715 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 3: how he thinks he knows it all. 716 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 4: So I think that's valid. I'm not taking that away. 717 00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 5: My thing is I think that dim probably would have 718 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 5: heard more about that, like about, hey, guys, this is 719 00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 5: the current perception of how you're. 720 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 4: Being viewed, right, you know what I'm saying. 721 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 5: Like, I think that maybe if there had been like 722 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 5: I just say that it makes sense now, or it 723 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 5: makes more sense at least there's a plausible reason why 724 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 5: there was no change in attitude or changing direction or 725 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:13,400 Speaker 5: changeing approach to that, to that perspective up until I 726 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 5: mean after draft day, right, you know what I'm saying. 727 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 5: It was a day of the draft. They are moving 728 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 5: like it was like he was going in the first round. Yeah, 729 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 5: And so that's why that just makes it makes a 730 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 5: lot more sense. 731 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 7: You. 732 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 3: I just still also think Dion has been Dion since 733 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 3: literally he was drafted with gold chains and you know, 734 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 3: the six sunglasses on. And I think part of them 735 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 3: is like do I want to deal with that with 736 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 3: this kid who isn't Andrew Luck? 737 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:39,880 Speaker 4: Sure, who isn't Caleb Williams. 738 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 3: You know, as far as that type of prospect, I 739 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,040 Speaker 3: don't want that fan fear. I don't want that pomp 740 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 3: circumstance for guys gonna sit on my bench for two 741 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 3: to three years. Maybe I think that played a role 742 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 3: as well. But wishing d I think we both are 743 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 3: I can speak for both of us wishing him all 744 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 3: the best players up for Dion uh and just wishing 745 00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 3: him the best.
