They might not have heard that. 61 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 4: He's just said, I'm not Lebron James, I'm not gonna 62 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 4: tell my sons what they have to do. 63 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 2: And his and his two sons immediately like put their 64 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 2: head down and covered their mouth. 65 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: Like like da, this was for us, not the world 66 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 1: to hear.

Pops? 67 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 2: You know we're not in the car, the three of us. 68 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 2: The world is listening. Yes, so it was. It was 69 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 2: pretty interesting. What'd you make of it? Le'm gonna just 70 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 2: get your your thoughts. 71 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 4: I thought that was an unnecessary dig. Usually what we 72 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 4: see in sports is the reason why you see Magic 73 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 4: Johnson walking around and he's dapping up Doctor Jane, he's 74 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 4: dapping up a big oh. When he's dapping up and 75 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 4: Edwards and that Edwards is dapping up. 76 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 2: It's usually, and you know you've been covering this league 77 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 2: since nineteen eighty seven ten, Usually it's a walk around 78 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 2: and it's a love fest, especially this particular weekend. 79 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: Right. 80 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 4: We all brothers in this fraternity, and so I thought 81 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 4: it was unusual in and unets necessary dig at your 82 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 4: brother in that frat. But Ron Harper, that's kind of 83 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 4: Ron Harper like, if you've ever heard him say things 84 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 4: and talk throughout the years. He's not a big talker, 85 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 4: he doesn't do a lot of pods and everything. But 86 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 4: the little bit of I've ever heard a little bit, 87 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 4: I see he's he's ready for the little he's ready 88 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 4: for the smoke and gona let you know his mine, 89 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 4: even back when he was playing. 90 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 1: You know, that's just part of who he is. 91 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 4: But I thought it was an unnecessary dig instead of 92 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 4: just saying, oh man, what an opportunity to play with 93 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 4: my sons. I love my sons. They've worked so hard, 94 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:30,600 Speaker 4: they've earned this. It was that was a great way 95 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 4: to do it. It was a dig at Bronnie too. 96 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 4: Basically he's saying like she doesn't deserve to be up 97 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,720 Speaker 4: here on the low. He didn't say it, but basically 98 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 4: he's saying, Lebron is the reason Bronnie had got to 99 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:44,599 Speaker 4: this level at all. 100 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 2: But see, I'm gonna say this, that's because a lot 101 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 2: of people still that's what they feel, is like Bronnie 102 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 2: is there because of Lebron and people. You can say 103 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 2: whatever you want. He was a highly recruited McDonald. Hold 104 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 2: all that stretch. Okay, he averaged five points at USC, right, 105 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 2: but you know what I mean. He averaged five points 106 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 2: at USC, a bad USC team, And I get. 107 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: He had the medical Okay. 108 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, but that But and he can go play in 109 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 2: the G League and light it up. There are a 110 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 2: lot of players who can do that in that league, 111 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 2: and that doesn't mean that it translates over into the 112 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 2: next level or the next league. And I still believe 113 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 2: that somebody like Aron Harper, whose sons got in on 114 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 2: their own, who they feel got in there on their own. 115 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 2: Merit you know what I mean. I'm telling you, like, 116 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 2: that's the hard part for Brownie. That's why you don't 117 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 2: want to do it that way, because no matter what 118 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 2: that kid does, they're gonna say your dad got it 119 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 2: because you had to go to the Lakers. 120 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: He didn't. 121 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 2: He didn't was on the draft board and wound up 122 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 2: in Orlando or some where else. This was all orchestrated, 123 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 2: and that is the reason why people will never let 124 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 2: it go or never let him stand on his own merit. 125 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 2: And that's why I believe too. As soon as Lebron 126 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,840 Speaker 2: is not in this situation or not, because he's already 127 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 2: lost power. You saw it with the Lakers, he doesn't 128 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 2: have the same power. I would be shocked that Browny's 129 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 2: on anybody's roster when Lebron retires. 130 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 1: I would be Yeah, that's not far fetched. 131 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 4: I mean, he hasn't been given that opportunity yet, or 132 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 4: maybe he hasn't just hasn't played enough to where you say, 133 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 4: all right, we got to have him as our nineteenth man. 134 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 4: Not that he's going to be a big time play, 135 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 4: but you know, it's some energy off the bench, maybe 136 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 4: a guy we can develop. 137 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 1: I don't that way. 138 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 6: I tend to just disagree only because the reason he 139 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 6: doesn't get minutes with the Lakers is because the Lakers 140 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:52,720 Speaker 6: have expectations to win. But if you're Washington and you 141 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 6: can't sell tickets and you why not sign Brianni? He'll 142 00:06:56,240 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 6: get I mean that, you know, I get your cent right. 143 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 6: He's a star, and but that that becomes that. 144 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 1: He's not trust He's like you just such. 145 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 2: I've seen him when he's got an extended minutes to okay, 146 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 2: and you can sit there talking about selling tickets. I 147 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 2: just I think that's one off. I'm dead serious, because 148 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 2: now he's going back. He ain't staying the league the 149 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 2: whole time. It was in the league the whole time. 150 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 2: Maybe you would have a point. He's in the G 151 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 2: league right. 152 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 4: And also you're watching him in LA where people literally 153 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 4: went to high school with him or Contner, you or 154 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 4: they follow usc, they follow the Lakers, they follow Lebron. 155 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 4: It would be interesting on a quiet night in Indiana 156 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 4: are they selling out tickets? Because no, they're not right 157 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 4: on that point, Like eighty eighty two games, forty one 158 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 4: at home. I don't know if we're buying just because Brianni. 159 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 4: I think that novelty could rub off. You're right, the 160 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 4: Los Angeles thing is really the hook. 161 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: He went went to see a canyon. 162 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 4: Grown up here for half of most of his life, 163 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 4: we've seen him, so there's an element of attachment to 164 00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 4: people from here. 165 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 6: But I think you could give him a shake as 166 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 6: what he is as a player on a bad team, 167 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 6: to see what can you do? 168 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 1: But more crying. 169 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 4: I think the time is I think there will be 170 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 4: a point where all of us will go, this is 171 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 4: the time we're really judging him. 172 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 1: Right now, let's not under esther. 173 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 4: And what I want to say, that's not be little 174 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 4: the health impact, right, he lost a full year and 175 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 4: had to get his mind right. What I'm saying is 176 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 4: if the idea is he should have been in an NBA, 177 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 4: I don't fully disagree with that. 178 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: No, my point to here's my issue with that, dude, 179 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 1: people are trying to win.

Like if I was 208 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 2: somebody like I would be interested in that. 209 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 1: That's why fans have been calling for him. Am I 210 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: Am I wrong? Or right?

I don't think Lebron forced his son 218 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 4: to play basketball. What I do believe he forced was 219 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 4: once he realized, oh you want to play basketball, I'm 220 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 4: absolutely going to do whatever I can in my power 221 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,319 Speaker 4: to help you with that, whether it's Tou High School 222 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,959 Speaker 4: getting you a se Eric CanYa getting you McDonald's all American. 223 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 4: That the large part of well to you? To whose 224 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 4: point was that? 225 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 7: Now? 226 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: Your point earlier of well has some celebrity to it. 227 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 4: If we get Lebron James Junior in his game, there 228 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 4: will be some extra because McDonald's all American ain't hitting 229 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 4: like it used to. 230 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,559 Speaker 1: As far as you know something. Do you see Bryce 231 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: ain't playing at Arizona right? He Sure he ain't. Dude. 232 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 1: They were undefeated. I know they lost recently, but no, 233 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: he's not getting any wrung. They got a good team, dude. 234 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 1: This is what I'm trying to tell you. 235 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 2: So I'm saying I think you think he's not playing Uh, 236 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 2: Carmelo Anthony's son's not playing at Syracuse. 237 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 1: He's coming off the bench. He's getting some burn. He 238 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,080 Speaker 1: getting is slowing down a little bit. But he just 239 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 1: had a couple of d M. Yeah, he was getting 240 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: it slow and down. He was getting more burn earlier. 241 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 4: But I think my point is I think were Ron 242 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 4: it's not so much I told he said, I ain't 243 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 4: tell my son to play basketball or Lebron. 244 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 1: I don't think Lebron ever's like you have to play basketball. 245 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 4: I think naturally my dad is Lebron, and especially as 246 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,839 Speaker 4: young as he had them, that they're just playing ball together. 247 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 4: You see it, you love the game. I think Lebron 248 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 4: at a certain point that absolutely use his power. And 249 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 4: that's where I'm actually shocked, real quickly make this point. 250 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 4: And I know you'll disagree with me. We've argued about 251 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 4: this TNAUSEI in for years. I'm actually shocked Ron Harper 252 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 4: would say that in a sense of even though you 253 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,200 Speaker 4: might not agree with, like, you know, helping out your 254 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 4: sons and using your power, the idea that find like 255 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 4: there's an opportunity for a prominent African American to use 256 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 4: his power and to help himself well We've seen that 257 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 4: many times over in other places, so I thought Ron 258 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,319 Speaker 4: will almost be like, Privately, I might say this, Okay, publicly, 259 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:51,559 Speaker 4: I'm a little more shocked. 260 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 2: I think Ron Harper speaks for most in the NBA 261 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 2: who had to earn their way on teams. 262 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: I'm dead most don't say it publicly. That's what I 263 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: was saying. Okay, most don't. 264 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 2: Believe in that, because you know, they all, everybody had 265 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 2: to make the team. Michael Jordan got cut from his 266 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 2: high school basketball team. 267 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 1: You have to make the team, right. 268 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:18,719 Speaker 2: And and anytime they looked at a situation where they 269 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 2: felt like he got an unfair advantage of some other 270 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 2: kid who put into work or whatever didn't get the opportunity, 271 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 2: people don't always feel good about it. And that's I'm saying. 272 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 2: Ron Harper, I think speaks for the majority. There's a 273 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 2: couple of people who defend Lebron, but most people, if 274 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 2: you ask them honestly about the whole scenario, it was 275 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:40,959 Speaker 2: about Lebron. 276 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 1: The whole idea was he. 277 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 2: Couldn't go to the Milwaukee Bucks, be drafted by them 278 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 2: and play and do his own thing. Lebron had to 279 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 2: have them with them so that he could play with 280 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 2: him and be the father and son like it had 281 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 2: to be that way. 282 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 1: And that is why Ron Harper said what he said. 283 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 6: I think it also shows the schism between today's generation 284 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 6: and the old school. I think a lot of people 285 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,439 Speaker 6: my generation love it. They love that Brony's with Lebron 286 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 6: and they look at people like Ron Harper as haters, 287 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 6: as if you can't have it the old school way, 288 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,319 Speaker 6: it's got to be the highway, you know what I mean. 289 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 2: I know a lot of people who are on Ron 290 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 2: Harper side who this generation or I'm just saying, like 291 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 2: people who are people who are I'm talking about athletes, 292 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 2: a meritocracy, okay, and and and the biggest thing, just 293 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 2: like you just said, the country seventy percent white, but 294 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 2: the NBA seventy percent black, because they could have easily 295 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,559 Speaker 2: you want to talk about, well, all the white guys 296 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 2: on all the teams, put all players that they want 297 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 2: their sons, their cousins, their nephew. You could do that 298 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 2: if you want, right, and they could, but no, they 299 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 2: they're not going to do that because they're trying to 300 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 2: win and they know they can't do it. When they 301 00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:00,079 Speaker 2: tried to put Tim Tebow down in Jacksonville as a 302 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 2: tight end, right what happened. 303 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 1: Yes, it was a revolt though. 304 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 2: By the players because he didn't deserve that opportunity. And 305 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 2: that's why I'm saying, that's why they disrubbs people around 306 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 2: there and listen, that's all as a meritocracy. Who deserves it, 307 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 2: who's better? I completely get that. I think the large 308 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 2: like this is where there's two things. The power move 309 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 2: of seeing someone that powerful and of a Lebron stature. 310 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 4: What we've seen him go from being the eighteen nineteen 311 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 4: year old coming in to now. I think some people 312 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 4: to your points him appreciated, like look how powerful he's gotten. 313 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 4: Or Rob is always saying, you know, Lebron made it. 314 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 4: Michaeuld youan own the Charlotte Bob Patts. Okay, he had 315 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 4: two sons who played college basket. 316 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 1: I'm saying Mike would never do that. But he's the 317 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: type of like I've been seeing you getting cooked. 318 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 2: He ain't he ain't made you, ain't on you ain't 319 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 2: like seriously, he could have. He could have said, well, 320 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 2: I could put them as the last two men on 321 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 2: the bench. They don't play much anyway, they could be 322 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 2: on that like that could be your question. You could 323 00:14:58,440 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 2: do that.

Right, all right, let's start with 378 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,920 Speaker 2: Tyler and Tampa. You're in the odd couple of Fox 379 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:34,359 Speaker 2: Sports Radio. What's up, Tyler? 380 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 8: Hey, this is Tyler Tyler Rose TV on YouTube. Big 381 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 8: fan of the show. 382 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 1: Thank you, Pop myself, appreciate you. Your ahead, gets you 383 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 1: Pop on, go ahead? 384 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 7: Hey listen, this is what I want to say. 385 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 8: Was it necessary for Ron Harper to take a slighte Lebron? 386 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,880 Speaker 8: Absolutely not necessary, But this is what it is, right. 387 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 8: I think Lebron did this whole Brownie thing for himself. 388 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 8: He wanted to play with his son, for his legacy 389 00:17:58,119 --> 00:17:59,880 Speaker 8: to big it up. I don't think it was much 390 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 8: for his sake of his own child. So I think 391 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 8: Ron Harper is taking an angle like, hey, I could 392 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 8: do the same with my kids that maybe have some 393 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 8: more insight, But I'm gonna let my kids play off 394 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 8: their own potential from the collegiate career and kind of 395 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 8: just take it from there and then whatever they do 396 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 8: that they do. 397 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 1: That's kind of if Lebron. 398 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 2: If Lebron did not direct Bronni to the Lakers, people 399 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,880 Speaker 2: would not treat Brownie that way if he got drafted 400 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 2: by the Nets. Seriously, just that he was on there, 401 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 2: anybody could draft on his own, merit man, nobody would 402 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 2: be doing like that. 403 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:33,720 Speaker 4: Let me ask you this though, thanks for the call 404 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:36,399 Speaker 4: if Ron Harper, because one thing, Ron Harper was a 405 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 4: quality player. Let's not act like he's Lebron. Stand no, No, 406 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,439 Speaker 4: If Ron Harper had that kind of pulling power, do 407 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 4: you think he would have You don't think so? 408 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 1: No, Okay, I just don't. And the kids was different. 409 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 2: Everybody else who has kids in the league out of 410 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 2: the league, so Lebron was in it definitely different. 411 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 4: So early right, definitely a situation early Jordan's had a 412 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:55,920 Speaker 4: million years. 413 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 1: Jordan and DC, you're on the couple of Fox calling 414 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 1: in aim sub Jordan. 415 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 7: He Ron Kelvin. No, no, no, I'm not. 416 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,199 Speaker 1: I was just making sure Mike wasn't calling in about it. 417 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 7: You know, he has he hasn't been to DC in 418 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 7: a good twenty plus years. But no, so I am. 419 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 7: I see where ron Harp was coming from, guys, And 420 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,199 Speaker 7: I think it's because I think, I think the general 421 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 7: sentiment is that like, if Lebron cared about Brony more 422 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,959 Speaker 7: than doing it for himself, he would have convinced Bronnie 423 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,439 Speaker 7: to stay multiple years at USC. He could, you know, 424 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,400 Speaker 7: you know, could one day look look like a legitimate 425 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 7: NBA player. But everybody knows he needed more than one 426 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 7: year in college, you know. 427 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 2: So I think, no, that that's a great point, which 428 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 2: which if you Brinnie went back considering with the hard situation, 429 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,440 Speaker 2: right and then let him go play another year, get 430 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 2: even better and then come. But Lebron couldn't wait because 431 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,400 Speaker 2: he didn't know about his how long he's gonna play, 432 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,360 Speaker 2: if he's gonna get hurt on all that kind of stuff. 433 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,440 Speaker 2: Hey John in Virginia, you're in the odd couple of 434 00:19:58,520 --> 00:19:59,400 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. 435 00:19:59,440 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: What's up? 436 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:05,919 Speaker 9: Thank you, guys, just for perspective.

Damon? 454 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 5: What's up? Fellas? Love the show like everybody else, man, 455 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,679 Speaker 5: but I don't get what these people are talking about. 456 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 5: First of all, nobody was in the position. Nobody can 457 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 5: say what they wanted they would do because they're nobody 458 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 5: was in the position of Lebron James. Nobody was in it. 459 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:12,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, but let me say this. I'm gonna let you finish, 460 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 2: but let me say this. But the difference is they've 461 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 2: all competed. They've all competed for a spot on a team. 462 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 2: That's what the pushback is. Not that Lebron. Everybody knows 463 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:27,199 Speaker 2: where Lebron is. But once you start doing that is 464 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 2: when you're gonna tell Jerry Jones his grand great grandson 465 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 2: can't be the last man on the Cowboys. Nobody else 466 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 2: has done that, and why Jerry Jones owns the team. 467 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 2: He could come up with the same excuse and nobody 468 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,199 Speaker 2: else has done that. Lebron did it. That's why I 469 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 2: think there's pushback. 470 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:49,400 Speaker 5: But I understand that that can be pushback. But Lebron, 471 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 5: if you got Lebron on your team, you're winning, right, 472 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:55,360 Speaker 5: you can win? Right, So Lebron has this, he has 473 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 5: one up on everybody. 474 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 1: They're not winning, they're not winning. 475 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:00,479 Speaker 3: Can win. 476 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,399 Speaker 5: Lebron is the top Lebron is a top twenty twenty 477 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 5: five player in the league, right at the minimum, right, 478 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 5: so you can win with him. 479 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 1: Right on his team. Most people Lebron said, they they 480 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:11,680 Speaker 1: can't even compete. 481 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 5: That's that Lebron is a top twenty five player in 482 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 5: the league. We all agree on that, right, right, we 483 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:19,479 Speaker 5: agree with that. 484 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:24,639 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, twenty five yeah, yes, yes, yes, yes, so he. 485 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 5: Has he has the leverage of ay, you could get this. 486 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,920 Speaker 2: That doesn't mean no, but that but his son if 487 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 2: his son had balled out at USC but he did it. 488 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 5: What if his son would never made it?

And when Lebron is 495 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 2: out of the league, you call back and tell me 496 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 2: what team signed Browny to some deal. 497 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 5: Never gonna make no. 498 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,440 Speaker 2: But but but what you've done is because of because 499 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 2: you don't know that you didn't let him go back 500 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 2: to college to play to finish his career. 501 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 1: The dilemma is it wasn't about It wasn't about Brod 502 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 1: Lebron Jays. 503 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 2: Let's be clear, Lebron James wanted to play with Lebron 504 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 2: because Ron Wayams wanted to add more Pennance. I did 505 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 2: than nobody else can. Michael Jordan didn't do it. Did 506 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 2: it in the East Coast? I wanted the Eastern conferensation. 507 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,359 Speaker 2: But this was about play more years. I've done more 508 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 2: than he. It isn't about Lebron. 509 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: He's saying is no one has flex their muscle. 510 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 2: But I'm trying to say to you, is this wasn't 511 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 2: like a bona fide play away. No, no, no, that's 512 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:41,680 Speaker 2: the point of because he wasn't Cooper flag word be obvious. 513 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 1: No, no, no, that I got somebody wasn't. 514 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:49,119 Speaker 2: It wasn't about it was about Lebron, about his photo loob. 515 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:52,959 Speaker 1: Nobody we're saying Lebron. 516 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 4: The Lakers went ahead and drafted somebody that they probably 517 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 4: wouldn't have in another circumstance, and that is almost of 518 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 4: itself kind of credit. 519 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 1: When you do that, it. 520 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 2: Tells you for a lot of guys who are competitors. 521 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 2: I don't disagree that's that's that burns competitors. That's why 522 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 2: I say it's amazing Michael Jordan owned the team. He 523 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 2: wanted to start play own the damn time. Do wish 524 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 2: Mike was a younger never done. 525 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,879 Speaker 4: We could have had Mike would have cooked this on. 526 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 4: I agree, no way, Mike would agree. Mike with Mike 527 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:24,720 Speaker 4: was built a little bit different. He had a little 528 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 4: more petty and the lebron is more of a ladder, 529 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 4: like I'm gonna help everybody up. 530 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,919 Speaker 3: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 531 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 3: the nation.

I think it's 562 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 10: also as much as you want to credit Damian Lower 563 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 10: for doing what he's doing, you can also duet the 564 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 10: rest of the field that a player that has not 565 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 10: played a single game at all this season and has 566 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 10: on a torn achilles that isn't fully healed still. 567 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 5: One that that's bad. 568 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 10: The dunk contest was awful, and yeah, there wasn't any buzz. 569 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 10: There was no one in the arena, Adam Silver speaking 570 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 10: a bunch of double talk on you know the Clippers investigation, tanking, 571 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 10: Ana Thompson, Decupo's investment deal. It felt very very flat Saturday. 572 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,399 Speaker 10: So yeah, a very much needed bounce back that the 573 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 10: NBA had a competitive and engaging All Star. 574 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 2: Game on you Know what you talked about the commissioner saying, 575 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 2: you know about the blatant cheating and what they're doing 576 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 2: and Kelvin Eve kicked it around a little bit, and 577 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 2: I'm like, the team with the worst record actually doesn't 578 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:55,920 Speaker 2: get that doesn't have a shot at the first pick, 579 00:26:56,080 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 2: like like that, like so that you can't like tried 580 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 2: to tank to get more ping pong balls, like that's 581 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:06,480 Speaker 2: not where you want to be. I don't know what 582 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,679 Speaker 2: else they could do even with the find. You say, 583 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:11,920 Speaker 2: I'll pay the fines if I still get the number 584 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:13,880 Speaker 2: one back, right, if I get that, I don't care 585 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 2: what the fines on how much ought to They're not 586 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 2: taking a franchise away from. 587 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,399 Speaker 1: Me, like six million, seven million, I'll take. 588 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 10: The fines are luxury tax basically. You know, Adam Silver said, hey, 589 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 10: they've been talking about considering docking draft picks. And I 590 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,679 Speaker 10: know there's been a lot of articles suggesting just abolish 591 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 10: the draft altogether. But here's the ironic part. Rob and Kelvin. 592 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 10: When they did the whole lottery system in the eighties, 593 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:42,160 Speaker 10: the whole idea was to find this sweet spot where 594 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 10: you help struggling teams find a pathway towards being competitive 595 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:52,719 Speaker 10: without guaranteeing it and without rewarding mirror mediocrity. Hence the 596 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:57,640 Speaker 10: odds it doesn't guarantee anything, so moving forward, I'm kind 597 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,479 Speaker 10: of on board with that whole abolishing the draft idea, 598 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 10: you know, make rookies free agents and then go from there. 599 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 10: My only problem with this that idea is that then 600 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:10,919 Speaker 10: creates a whole other, uh issue with you know, teams 601 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 10: that have cap space you're carving out, you know, roster 602 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 10: slots for players that you're not quite sure actually good. 603 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:18,159 Speaker 2: Uh. 604 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 10: I don't know what the solution is, but clearly I 605 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,399 Speaker 10: think the other part of it is I'm not condoning 606 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 10: what the Utah Jazz did, but this did feel like 607 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:32,479 Speaker 10: some excited energy of the league over compensating just because 608 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 10: it was happening so blatantly. I thought it was very 609 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 10: telling that Adam Silver in his statement said, you know, 610 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 10: he used the word avert, so it almost suggested that 611 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 10: the league doesn't have a problem with tank and as 612 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 10: long as you're not so obvious about well. 613 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:50,680 Speaker 1: I think that's I think he just said the quiet 614 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 1: part out loud. Mark. I've known that. 615 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 4: Time and fourth of a game that's closed, and then 616 00:28:57,600 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 4: not even he didn't even. 617 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 1: Come up with some Robert Mark. He was just twisted. 618 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 4: Is that you ever think about putting that game. No, 619 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 4: that was literally his answer. No, Like, okay, now that's right. 620 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 4: That's Adam Silver as you mentioned. Come on, dang, I'm 621 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 4: trying to be okay with this, but you're putting me 622 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 4: on the spot. Come on, brother, that's what it was 623 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 4: right there. Uh, let me go. Let me go back 624 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 4: to as we get back to the second half of 625 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 4: the season. Now that the All Star weekend is over, 626 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 4: what's the storyline you're going to be watching. Is there 627 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 4: is there a team in particular or player in particular. 628 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 4: Is it maybe Kawhi Leonard who went crazy in the 629 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 4: All Star Game. Can he lead its Clippers to maybe 630 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 4: making some moves in the Western Conference. 631 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 1: I'm kind of watching that. 632 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean Kawhi Leonard play out of his mind. 633 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 10: You know, I had tweeted that he was he played 634 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 10: with machine like efficiency. They made AI look off obsolete already. 635 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 1: Well he is a machine. He's a robot. 636 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 10: Clippers they're tenth place right now. Yeah, they can make 637 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 10: a run, but they're going to be at the plays hornament, 638 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 10: so that just sets them up to get eliminated by 639 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 10: the Thunderspurs Nuggets in the first round. Yeah, it'll be cool. 640 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 10: What we were obviously looking at is what the seeding 641 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 10: is going to be with the top tier teams contending 642 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 10: as well as the plan, But you know, as far 643 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 10: as like microanalyzing teams, I think it's really going to 644 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 10: come down to that debate that we're having about the 645 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 10: Eastern Conference or the Knicks better or the Pistons better. 646 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 10: That's number one, and then number two, this collision course 647 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 10: of the Thunder and the Spurs are having. I think 648 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 10: that's what's going to be about in the Western Conference Finals. 649 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 10: I know you can't ever rule out the Denver Nuggets 650 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 10: because they have nicolea jokicch but they seem to just 651 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 10: have all these overlapping injuries.
