Gil's Arena Reacts To Damian Lillard CUT By The Milwaukee Bucks as Gilbert Arenas & The Gil's Arena Crew react to the Milwaukee Bucks making a move to sign Myles Turner and release future Hall of Famer Damian Lillard in the process. They break down what this move means for the Bucks who are looking to rebuild a championship contender around Giannis Antetokounmpo and debate if releasing Dame will be the final straw for the Greek Freak to finally demand a trade. They then grade what has been an active offseason for the Houston Rockets who made a massive move for Kevin Durant and signed hoopers like Clint Capela & Dorian Finney-Smith and debate if these moves were enough for H-Town to compete with the OKC Thunder at the top of the Western Conference, before reacting to KD's appearance alongside LeBron & Steve Nash on the Mind The Game Podcast. Next, they take another look at the stagnant offseason for LeBron James & The Los Angeles Lakers who have positioned themselves as Deandre Ayton or bust, sparking a debate on if the team should just hang it up and clear cap space for 2027. Finally they whip around the NBA to cover various moves from the opening day of NBA Free Agency like Jordan Clarkson signing with the New York Knicks, D'Angelo Russell signing with the Dallas Mavericks and Michael Porter Jr getting shipped away from the Denver Nuggets by Nikola Jokic before discussing what's next for Jonathan Kuminga & The Golden State Warriors as their contract battle has stretched into NBA Free Agency.

[3:45] Speaker 2: But as a reminder, each member of our Gills Arena
[3:46] Speaker 2: crew has submitted a pick'em. We're combining to create our
[3:49] Speaker 2: crew partner packs every single day here on Gills Arena

[3:59] Speaker 1: So where I'm at now? Before we take our summer hiatus.
[4:02] Speaker 1: Why you don't pick? See, I'm merely a host. But
[4:05] Speaker 1: you're part of the couch, though. I don't really feel
[4:07] Speaker 1: like that. You do when you get your check, nigga.
[4:11] Speaker 1: Speaking of which. Speaking of which. Team me. Team me.

[4:21] Speaker 1: But you're part of the couch, so it just only
[4:24] Speaker 1: makes sense. Okay. Well, if the people want me to
[4:26] Speaker 1: do it. To see what your knowledge is, because you
[4:28] Speaker 1: do this and see what you just think is only fair.
[4:30] Speaker 1: Maybe I do it. Maybe I do it well. You
[4:32] Speaker 1: don't know. That's what it is. Watch baseball.
[4:34] Speaker 3: I'm saying other people, when they do things, they include
[4:37] Speaker 3: themselves in there.
[4:38] Speaker 1: Like when they do a Sunday pick. I'm not saying
[4:40] Speaker 1: they pick the games on Sunday. You never say it
[4:42] Speaker 1: to like 10 niggas pressing. I'm getting pressed to pick them.
[4:45] Speaker 1: I will join the pick. You ain't got the time.
[4:47] Speaker 1: I know you're a busy man, though. I know you're
[4:53] Speaker 1: a busy man. Hurry up. I do Little League pickups
[4:55] Speaker 1: with the other players. Joe plays all day. Huh? I
[4:58] Speaker 1: do the live pickups. That's why. I don't do the pre.
[5:00] Speaker 1: I be in the moment like, okay, Shohei's about to
[5:02] Speaker 1: get it going. Is that harder? Because you see your line.
[5:05] Speaker 1: It doesn't work. It does not work. It does not work.
[5:07] Speaker 1: You see something that you want to hit it in, but, oh,
[5:10] Speaker 1: it just changed.
[5:10] Speaker 2: Normally, if I see a team struggling, I'll be like,
[5:12] Speaker 2: all right, they're going to get it going. Dodgers struggling
[5:14] Speaker 2: the first couple innings, like, all right, they're going to
[5:15] Speaker 2: get their bats going. You know, they're going to get
[5:17] Speaker 2: to work, but. Always get betrayed. It's hard to pick.
[5:19] Speaker 4: You'd be trying to get like three or four and
[5:21] Speaker 4: then by the time you get ready to put your
[5:22] Speaker 4: money in, it doesn't change the line.
[5:24] Speaker 1: A little goddamn quarter to end it. Too late.
[5:27] Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the worst. Try to get in a commercial break.
[5:30] Speaker 2: But here are the scores after five partner packs as
[5:32] Speaker 2: you guys asked. Kenyon and Gil are tied with four
[5:35] Speaker 2: out of five correct picks.
[5:36] Speaker 1: Mr.
[5:37] Speaker 2: B and Swaggy each have three out of five correct.
[5:39] Speaker 2: And Rashad, you have two out of five right so far,
[5:41] Speaker 2: but I'm expecting a big comeback in the near future.
[5:43] Speaker 1: I really got three out of four. No, you... I
[5:47] Speaker 1: didn't do it.
[5:47] Speaker 2: You showed up to work and did not do the pick-em.
[5:49] Speaker 2: You there for it. Forfeited that pick-em.
[5:51] Speaker 1: I don't think it's fair. I didn't work that day.
[5:53] Speaker 1: I just showed up.
[5:54] Speaker 2: Once you walk in the door, your clock is running.
[5:55] Speaker 1: They said whether you work or not, you have to submit. Yeah.
[5:58] Speaker 1: It's what it said. That's for you for not paying attention.
[6:03] Speaker 1: You don't show up to the game. That's on you
[6:04] Speaker 1: for not paying attention. Yeah, absolutely. Take the L. Yeah, definitely.
[6:08] Speaker 1: That happened in the big three. You didn't show up.
[6:09] Speaker 1: Your team took the L. It goes on your record.
[6:11] Speaker 1: It goes on your record. That's how it goes here
[6:14] Speaker 1: in Gills Arena presented by $ 100. But let's take a
[6:17] Speaker 1: look at our crew partner pack for today.
[6:20] Speaker 2: If we can, let's keep it riding. So if you
[6:22] Speaker 2: use this partner pack, you can win nearly 14 times
[6:25] Speaker 2: your bread.
[6:25] Speaker 1: It is boosted. But let's take a look.
[6:28] Speaker 2: So we've got, Ken, you've got Max Freed, San Fernando
[6:31] Speaker 2: Valley legend, higher, 4.5 strikeouts. Went to Montclair Prep. I
[6:36] Speaker 2: think ended Harvard-Westlake somewhere else. Prep shut down under some
[6:39] Speaker 2: unfortunate circumstances. Swaggy, you have Christopher Sanchez higher 4.5 strikeouts. Brandon,
[6:45] Speaker 2: you got Juan Soto, I know black, higher. 5 total bases. Rashad,
[6:49] Speaker 2: you got Kelsey Mitchell lower 2.5 three-pointers made. And Gil,
[6:53] Speaker 2: you have Courtney Williams higher 22.5 points, rebounds, and assists.
[6:57] Speaker 2: This is a boosted pack worth more than 13 times
[7:01] Speaker 2: your bread if you ride with it. So let's see
[7:06] Speaker 2: what the chat has to say if they're riding.
[7:08] Speaker 1: Ooh.
[7:10] Speaker 2: Chad is not falling in line. We will stall. They're
[7:14] Speaker 2: going to lose again. Letting the market correct itself. Give
[7:17] Speaker 2: me a second. 5-5 yesterday, y'all. Y'all better fuck with
[7:21] Speaker 2: us on Underdog. Y'all already know what time it is.
[7:23] Speaker 2: Help keep these lights on. 51% is riding. I'm going
[7:28] Speaker 2: to go ahead and call it now. 51% is riding.
[7:31] Speaker 2: We got it over.
[7:32] Speaker 1: Now 53%. All right, let's keep it moving. Good job, Chad.

[7:45] Speaker 2: the show live with us on YouTube, we have an
[7:46] Speaker 2: audio version available on Apple, Spotify, wherever you get your podcasts.
[7:49] Speaker 2: So we're going to start the show talking about Mr.
[7:52] Speaker 2: B's Milwaukee Bucks. Made the biggest splash of the day.
[7:56] Speaker 2: Several moves going on. Retained a bunch of players. Got
[8:00] Speaker 2: a big free agent move. Let go of a legend,
[8:04] Speaker 2: future Hall of Famer.
[8:05] Speaker 1: So it started with the announcement that the Bucs were
[8:06] Speaker 1: signing Miles Turner. So let's take a look at that.
[8:12] Speaker 2: Deal with Turner is four years, $ 107 million, including a
[8:17] Speaker 2: player option in year four, 15% trade kicker. That information
[8:21] Speaker 2: courtesy of Shams. But when this deal was announced, a
[8:25] Speaker 2: lot of people were like, well, how are the Bucs
[8:26] Speaker 2: going to make this happen? They don't have no bread
[8:28] Speaker 2: to get it going. But the Bucs cleared up some
[8:30] Speaker 2: cap space. And how, you may ask? Let's take a
[8:33] Speaker 2: look at what they did. So Bucs are waving Damian Lillard,
[8:37] Speaker 2: stretching the remaining $ 113 million on his contract in order
[8:41] Speaker 2: to acquire Miles Turner. As you may recall, Dame suffered
[8:44] Speaker 2: a torn Achilles in this postseason, played through a calf strain,
[8:47] Speaker 2: gave his all to the team to help them in
[8:49] Speaker 2: their playoff push. And the team paid him back by
[8:55] Speaker 2: telling him, don't come.
[8:56] Speaker 1: To work, here's your bread.
[8:58] Speaker 2: So Chris Haynes is reporting that Giannis wasn't happy about
[9:03] Speaker 2: Dame being waved. So the only comment we have from
[9:06] Speaker 2: Giannis so far is this IG story, which says, Mood,
[9:13] Speaker 2: I don't know what's going on right now, man. Giannis
[9:15] Speaker 2: smoking cigar. Chris Haynes report has a lot of validity
[9:19] Speaker 2: to it. Chris Haynes related to Giannis' wife. Just has
[9:23] Speaker 2: context in the situation. But Mr. B, we'll start with you.
[9:27] Speaker 2: You're very active today on the app formerly known as Twitter.
[9:31] Speaker 2: I think found out a little later in the game
[9:32] Speaker 2: that Damian Lillard Got waived. Was going to be waived
[9:35] Speaker 2: for this deal to happen. But what was your initial
[9:36] Speaker 2: reaction to the Bucs waiving Dame and signing Myles Turner?
[9:40] Speaker 5: Well, my first reaction was the fact that we just
[9:43] Speaker 5: like owing people money. So, you know, I mean, I
[9:49] Speaker 5: had to go back and make sure they owe me
[9:50] Speaker 5: some money. I mean, because they owe, we owe two coaches,
[9:54] Speaker 5: we owe Dane money. Um, so we just in the hole.
[9:58] Speaker 1: Tell him I ain't got it. Right now.
[10:00] Speaker 5: Um, I mean, but getting Miles Turner was, you know,
[10:03] Speaker 5: I mean, you know, he's younger than Brooke, Brooke Lopez.
[10:05] Speaker 1: They kind of do the same thing.
[10:06] Speaker 5: So that kind of evens itself out a little bit. Um,
[10:11] Speaker 5: I just don't know what directions we're going in. We
[10:16] Speaker 5: You know, we don't have anybody like Chris Middleton. I
[10:18] Speaker 5: feel like getting Dame, when we got Dame, you know,
[10:21] Speaker 5: his chemistry with Giannis wasn't really, you know, there.
[10:25] Speaker 1: So that was already a failure. Freak time.
[10:29] Speaker 5: So, yeah, I kind of really didn't understand really the move.
[10:32] Speaker 5: But I'm happy for Dame. You know, he gets his money.
[10:34] Speaker 5: He actually has a chance now to actually go where
[10:36] Speaker 5: he wants to go. So for his sake, it's good.
[10:39] Speaker 5: And for the Bucs, we just got to wait and see.
[10:41] Speaker 2: So, Dame, five years, $ 22 million a year on Bobby
[10:44] Speaker 2: Bonilla Day. As you may recall, Bonilla get It's a
[10:46] Speaker 2: payment every single year, July 1st.
[10:48] Speaker 1: Yeah. Good bread.
[10:50] Speaker 2: Let's move over to this side of the couch. Money-making Sonny,
[10:53] Speaker 2: what do you think about the Bucs? Signing Miles Turner,
[10:55] Speaker 2: taking him away from the Pacers. He was the longest-tenured
[10:58] Speaker 2: Pacer at that point. Spent 10 seasons in Indiana. Was
[11:00] Speaker 2: the constant subject of trade rumors. As soon as he
[11:03] Speaker 2: got some free agency, he took his bread and dipped
[11:05] Speaker 2: to Milwaukee. But in order to do so, they had
[11:08] Speaker 2: to waive Dame Lillard. The Bucs stops here.
[11:16] Speaker 1: That's it. That's it. The buck stops here. It stops here.
[11:21] Speaker 1: Why does the buck stop here? I mean, it's just
[11:23] Speaker 1: nasty work.
[11:25] Speaker 6: Like you said, he owe a lot of people, so
[11:27] Speaker 6: it's just free bread at this point, you know, and
[11:29] Speaker 6: Dane was going to be out for a whole year,
[11:31] Speaker 6: so you're trying to rationalize what they're thinking about moving forward,
[11:37] Speaker 6: even with Giannis' uncertainty, what he want to do as
[11:41] Speaker 6: an owner. You get rid of Brooke. You already got
[11:43] Speaker 6: rid of Middleton. That whole Championship feel is gone. So
[11:48] Speaker 6: your mind's real rebuilt. But it's like, do we rebuild
[11:52] Speaker 6: with Giannis? Or do we start over completely? So owing
[11:56] Speaker 6: all that money is like trying to say like, are
[11:59] Speaker 6: we going to take a few years off? Or are
[12:01] Speaker 6: we still going to keep going? So I don't know
[12:03] Speaker 6: what's going on, but it looked like it stopped.
[12:06] Speaker 1: Everything stops here.
[12:09] Speaker 2: Let's shift over to Swaggy. Swaggy, what do you think
[12:11] Speaker 2: about the Bucs? Sign of Miles Turner, waving Dame.
[12:14] Speaker 1: It's just Milwaukee being Milwaukee, you know? Your Milwaukee family
[12:20] Speaker 1: still looking for you?
[12:22] Speaker 7: They still looking for a lot of people now, I see.
[12:24] Speaker 7: A lot of people owe them money in Milwaukee. It's just, man,
[12:29] Speaker 7: Milwaukee is just dead, man.
[12:34] Speaker 1: Who's their point guard now? Kevin Porter Jr. right now.
[12:39] Speaker 7: This led Porter and... Fucking Kyle Kuzma just shoot all
[12:44] Speaker 7: the shots and just forget about Milwaukee for the next
[12:49] Speaker 7: couple years, man.
[12:52] Speaker 2: Kane, how do you feel about the Bucs? Signing Miles
[12:55] Speaker 2: Turner away from the Pacers, arch nemesis in the Eastern Conference,
[12:59] Speaker 2: but waving Damian Lillard to do so.
[13:05] Speaker 1: Start with the day, I think, interesting move. Unexpected.
[13:10] Speaker 3: By a lot of people, but they had to move
[13:12] Speaker 3: some money with the signing of Miles Turner, so someone's
[13:15] Speaker 3: going to have to give.
[13:18] Speaker 1: But yeah, no, it's shit. To B's point, like, shit,
[13:22] Speaker 1: how much they got over there? Yeah. Hey, shit, it's
[13:26] Speaker 1: just at an influx. Hey, you want a job? Cool.
[13:29] Speaker 1: You want a job? Cool. Fire you, fire you, fire you,
[13:31] Speaker 1: fire you. Fire, fire. Listen, man, this shit's amazing. Let
[13:36] Speaker 1: me get that check. How many games? I want a job. Yeah, shit.
[13:39] Speaker 1: We all... Hey, shit. That's something. Doc next. Something on
[13:42] Speaker 1: the media. Doc next. Doc know what's going on? Something.
[13:44] Speaker 1: Doc next. He's got to walk away with another check.
[13:47] Speaker 1: Doc next. Yeah, but so... What does Miles Turner do
[13:54] Speaker 1: for the Bucs? Because in my opinion, you just move furniture.
[14:00] Speaker 1: Brooke Lopez signing with the Clippers. You just move furniture.
[14:02] Speaker 3: You just move the table from this corner to that corner.
[14:05] Speaker 1: Absolutely. That's all. Absolutely. You ain't younger, though. Absolutely. Okay,
[14:09] Speaker 1: you wouldn't have gotten younger. Okay, this table, you just
[14:13] Speaker 1: move furniture. You wiped it off a little bit. You
[14:15] Speaker 1: wiped the dust off. Unless it's a block, they both
[14:17] Speaker 1: play free throw line and free throw. 100%. Mm-hmm. No rebounds,
[14:20] Speaker 1: just block. Like, they're not going nowhere. We're going to
[14:22] Speaker 1: have four rebounds in the finals. Yeah. We did. Yeah,
[14:25] Speaker 1: Brooke had five. On the pick and roll. Lopez, 13. Miles, 13.
[14:28] Speaker 1: He has five rebounds. Yeah, he can play better defense.
[14:31] Speaker 1: Who that? Miles on the pick and roll. No. He
[14:34] Speaker 1: was better. They were seeking him out. Seeking him out.
[14:39] Speaker 6: Brooke just, he just, he just, he can, he can,
[14:44] Speaker 6: but he just, he being dropped so much that it's like,
[14:47] Speaker 6: it's hard to come up and get back.
[14:48] Speaker 1: It's like real statue. Yeah. You go right around his
[14:52] Speaker 1: 37 too. So he says he's 37 and he's 30.
[14:54] Speaker 1: So we got 10. That's a better move. It's a
[14:57] Speaker 1: younger move, but what does it do for, does it,
[15:02] Speaker 1: he's 29, but what is it? No, with the, with
[15:05] Speaker 1: the honest, you still need more. That, that, that, You
[15:09] Speaker 1: still got Bobby Portis, right? You got Bobby Portis, Gary Harris,
[15:13] Speaker 1: Victorian Prince. They kept him in that role. Miles Turner
[15:15] Speaker 1: got some experience. Yeah, they kept Bobby in that role.
[15:19] Speaker 3: I think the Bucs played better with Bobby Portis on
[15:23] Speaker 3: the floor, from what I've noticed.
[15:25] Speaker 1: Bobby's better than Kuzma. Agreed? No. Different. Yeah. Different. Because
[15:32] Speaker 1: Bobby played a four. Bobby played a three. Bobby could
[15:34] Speaker 1: play the three, too. He can't, but he's a... When
[15:37] Speaker 1: he comes in, he plays it.
[15:38] Speaker 3: Because you can't put a small on Bobby. I think
[15:40] Speaker 3: you can put a small on Kuz and you get
[15:42] Speaker 3: something different. You put a small on Bobby, he's putting
[15:44] Speaker 3: you in that post. That's what I'm saying. Kuz is
[15:46] Speaker 3: not going to do that. Kuz is not going to
[15:47] Speaker 3: go put you down there in the post. That's what
[15:49] Speaker 3: I'm saying. That's what I'm saying.
[15:50] Speaker 1: It's different. Well, I want to say, not say better.
[15:52] Speaker 1: Let's just say more valuable. I wouldn't even say that.
[15:55] Speaker 1: I wouldn't even say that. Bobby's a more valuable player.
[15:58] Speaker 1: That's why they bring him off the bench. But you
[15:59] Speaker 1: need an aggressive Kyle Kuzma. You need an aggressive mindset
[16:03] Speaker 1: of Kyle Kuzma. Yeah, but that's determined on him. He's
[16:07] Speaker 1: got to turn it on. Turn it on this year.
[16:09] Speaker 1: We know Bobby's going to. That's a consistent Bobby. He
[16:12] Speaker 1: don't have to turn it. When Bobby turn it on,
[16:14] Speaker 1: he giving us 22 points. 24. Yeah, like when he
[16:17] Speaker 1: turned it on. But a regular Bobby is giving a 16. 16. Solid.
[16:20] Speaker 1: Off the bench. We need the Cal Hoosman that was
[16:24] Speaker 1: playing with the Lakers that didn't give a fuck who
[16:26] Speaker 1: he was playing with. He lost. He's gone. He's gone. Yeah,
[16:30] Speaker 1: I'm saying he needs to come back. That guy that
[16:32] Speaker 1: played for the Lakers that shot that bitch every time
[16:34] Speaker 1: he touched it down there.
[16:34] Speaker 2: You think Doc don't let him play like that? He
[16:36] Speaker 2: needs to in order for Doc to keep his job better.
[16:39] Speaker 2: I mean, we don't have no score. I mean, who does?
[16:41] Speaker 1: Kevin Porter can score. Yeah. The audience is going to
[16:45] Speaker 1: be looking at Kuz like, yo, what are you doing, bro?
[16:47] Speaker 1: Gary Trent still right here. We need a closer.
[16:51] Speaker 2: What do you think about this whole move? Buck's bringing
[16:55] Speaker 2: in Miles Turner. The Pacers have previously said they'd be
[16:57] Speaker 2: willing to go into the luxury tax during the postseason.
[17:00] Speaker 2: Halliburton gets hurt, and they said, fuck all that. We're
[17:02] Speaker 2: keeping our Brent. But also from the Buck side, Dame
[17:06] Speaker 2: playing with the calf strain, turned into an Achilles injury.
[17:09] Speaker 2: Been battling through injury throughout the past two seasons in Milwaukee,
[17:12] Speaker 2: trying to give his all to this team. And them
[17:14] Speaker 2: just saying, here, take this bread. Don't even come to work.
[17:20] Speaker 2: I mean, it's an upgrade from Brooke Lopez. Kuzma has
[17:25] Speaker 2: one more year under his belt. Bobby Portis gets to
[17:32] Speaker 2: play the whole season this year. So that's going to help.
[17:37] Speaker 2: You know what I mean? His performance has been enhanced.
[17:40] Speaker 1: He's good. Already been enhanced. You know, you got.
[17:44] Speaker 4: You know, as long as they keep majority of the
[17:46] Speaker 4: people that was there last year, adding.
[17:49] Speaker 1: Retained a lot of that roster. Adding Miles helps them.
[17:54] Speaker 1: You know, now they got to fill that point guard void.
[18:02] Speaker 1: And we're going to see if Mr. B stays a
[18:05] Speaker 1: Bucs fan. Because it just sounds like, just from the
[18:09] Speaker 1: history of what we know about him, he's going... Decide
[18:14] Speaker 1: not to be a Bucks fan. He's going to crash out. Yeah,
[18:16] Speaker 1: he's going to crash out real soon. He's going to
[18:18] Speaker 1: be mad. Real soon.
[18:20] Speaker 4: Maybe in the next 48 hours. You know, if they
[18:23] Speaker 4: get a certain point guard over there.
[18:25] Speaker 2: There are some point guards that are still on the
[18:27] Speaker 2: free agency market right now.
[18:28] Speaker 1: What point guard are they looking at real hard? Is
[18:31] Speaker 1: it an older one? Real older. Real older. Real old. Real,
[18:34] Speaker 1: real old. You know, this is real old. You know
[18:37] Speaker 1: what I mean? Real old. This is a little old.
[18:40] Speaker 1: Hell no. No.
[18:41] Speaker 8: Yeah.
[18:43] Speaker 1: Real cheap, ready to go win. Nah, hell no. And
[18:46] Speaker 1: play point golf. Nah. All year long. Huh? He gonna
[18:52] Speaker 1: play all 82. Yeah. He play all 82. He saying Clifford. Hmm? Clifford. Woo. Yes. Yeah. Yes.
[19:01] Speaker 9: Hmm.
[19:02] Speaker 1: Damn. Hey, I just want to know if B going
[19:06] Speaker 1: to be on the sideline. Doing his thing. Jumping and dancing.
[19:13] Speaker 1: Doing his thing. Hey. That's the result. That's the result.
[19:18] Speaker 1: Right here. I was just wondering.
[19:22] Speaker 2: Mr. B, if this unnamed point guard did decide to
[19:24] Speaker 2: come to Milwaukee, he wants to wear number three, would
[19:26] Speaker 2: you give him your blessing?
[19:27] Speaker 1: Or he got to pick a new number? Or he
[19:28] Speaker 1: got to pick a new number? Ow. Number three is
[19:32] Speaker 1: doing that shit. Oh, damn. Let's see if you're loyal.
[19:38] Speaker 1: Are you loyal to the Bucs or are you loyal
[19:40] Speaker 1: to the idea? You got to pick a new number.
[19:42] Speaker 1: You can't wear three. Why would you even want to
[19:44] Speaker 1: wear that number? This number is Clifford, man. Stay for it. man.
[19:52] Speaker 1: State Farm. Thank you. Even 48 hours, man. And then,
[19:54] Speaker 1: you know. Let's see what happens Monday. See you on Monday.
[19:58] Speaker 1: You're talking about basketball. Fuck the age and all that.
[20:06] Speaker 1: You're talking about basketball. It helps. It definitely fucking helps. Listen,
[20:14] Speaker 1: fuck personal feelings. Anything we think, have to say, whatever,
[20:18] Speaker 1: it helps.
[20:19] Speaker 3: Smart plays down the end, controls the game. It definitely helps.
[20:22] Speaker 1: Make sure the right person gets the ball all the time.
[20:25] Speaker 1: You know where it's going. You know what he's going
[20:28] Speaker 1: to do. Does it help? Yes, it does. He's a
[20:31] Speaker 1: master of the thing, not Giannis Neeson. Yes, it does.
[20:34] Speaker 1: Pick and roll. And to get in this spot, listen.
[20:36] Speaker 1: Get your ass on the block, big fella. Yes, I
[20:39] Speaker 1: got you. He wasn't in point guard. Does that take
[20:41] Speaker 1: it out? You know what I'm saying? It's good. Because
[20:44] Speaker 1: he can't pick and choose when he want it, dog.
[20:46] Speaker 1: Remember that. He can't get it when he want it. Listen, man,
[20:47] Speaker 1: you know the way that shit is, Nick, when that
[20:49] Speaker 1: shit get tight, dog. You can't. Slow it down. After
[20:52] Speaker 1: running over people with motherfucking two minutes to go in
[20:54] Speaker 1: the game, dog. Listen, dog, you have to get in charge.
[20:56] Speaker 1: You got four fouls and you run them up. With
[20:58] Speaker 1: three minutes to go in the game. I got you. Relax.
[21:01] Speaker 1: I got you down here. Y'all go over there. Come
[21:05] Speaker 1: on over here. I got you. Hey, come set this
[21:07] Speaker 1: and roll. Stop it. Slow down. Here you go. Here
[21:09] Speaker 1: you go. Here you go. Go to work.
[21:15] Speaker 2: And I still got my little me on that Blake
[21:17] Speaker 2: rip that him in a Blake Griffin.
[21:18] Speaker 1: Yeah, only two people gonna shoot that bitch in the
[21:25] Speaker 1: fourth Yeah, we're miles.
[21:29] Speaker 3: Listen yo Nick dead ass bread dead ass. No, no,
[21:33] Speaker 3: I hear you Let you do what you do best.
[21:35] Speaker 3: I hear you you want to spot up and shoot
[21:37] Speaker 3: that bitch You don't do it watch it from here
[21:39] Speaker 3: Bobby Portis. You like to do it Kyle Kuzma used to, hey,
[21:43] Speaker 3: only person that's going to suffer a little bit is
[21:45] Speaker 3: KPJ because he like to mother forget that bitch and
[21:47] Speaker 3: dance with it.
[21:49] Speaker 1: You can bring him on. But he's coming off the
[21:50] Speaker 1: bed so they won't be on the floor together. So
[21:52] Speaker 1: you can bring him and Bobby off. It helps. What
[21:55] Speaker 1: is Doc going to do? It helps.
[21:56] Speaker 6: What is Doc going to do right away? Going right
[21:58] Speaker 6: back to the Clippers system. What's that system? Pick and
[22:02] Speaker 6: roll with, pick and pop actually with Miles, pick and
[22:05] Speaker 6: pop with the Giannis Duck in.
[22:07] Speaker 1: Yeah, because you got a different dynamic. You had two
[22:12] Speaker 1: rollers in DeAndre and Blake. Blake became somewhat picked up.
[22:18] Speaker 1: It was up to 16, 17. Miles Turner popping the three.
[22:22] Speaker 1: Bobby Portis popping the three.
[22:24] Speaker 2: Is there a lineup where they play Kuzma, Portis, Giannis,
[22:27] Speaker 2: and Turner?
[22:31] Speaker 6: Ah, I was thinking about that, but you would put
[22:33] Speaker 6: Kuzma at the two.
[22:35] Speaker 1: Yeah. That's a big-ass lineup. Yeah. Just to fuck people up.
[22:39] Speaker 1: Just to fuck them up for us. But I think
[22:41] Speaker 1: if he does go there, he would rather go small
[22:43] Speaker 1: than go big. Right.
[22:45] Speaker 7: Because Kuzma's the big, skilled people.
[22:48] Speaker 6: It's hard to have a team full of those, though. Like,
[22:50] Speaker 6: got enough that can actually, like, you.
[22:52] Speaker 1: Can play the two. I just don't like it.
[22:53] Speaker 2: And you can play the one, and we can all
[22:55] Speaker 2: play basketball.
[22:57] Speaker 1: That's what I said. Take all our affiliates. Giannis and
[23:02] Speaker 1: Kuz can guard one thing. There's nothing else out there.
[23:04] Speaker 1: That's what I'm thinking.
[23:05] Speaker 3: If you really want to get for you, Giannis at
[23:08] Speaker 3: the five, Bobby at the four, Kuz, yeah, that's it.
[23:10] Speaker 1: Yeah, that one right there, I like better.
[23:12] Speaker 2: As it stands right now, let's take a look at
[23:13] Speaker 2: the Bucs' current projected starting five in the season.
[23:17] Speaker 1: Obviously, more moves may be made in the near future.
[23:20] Speaker 1: So until....
[23:22] Speaker 2: They bring in another potential point guard option. You got
[23:25] Speaker 2: KPJ at the one. Gary Trent Jr., who re-signed as well.
[23:28] Speaker 2: The two, Kuz at the three. Giannis at the four.
[23:31] Speaker 2: Miles Turner.
[23:32] Speaker 1: And the East is not bad right now. Hey, them
[23:37] Speaker 1: top two dudes aggressive. I mean, we top five for
[23:41] Speaker 1: sure at the East. You see Boston line up? But
[23:44] Speaker 1: that five there. Easy. That's pretty standard. The ASCP, it's
[23:48] Speaker 1: top three. Absolutely. With Boston being hurt? Jason Tatum hurt. Huh? Hey,
[23:55] Speaker 1: Jason Tatum hurt. Yes, we are. Y'all better than Orlando?
[23:57] Speaker 1: Fuck yeah. If they get Chris, yes, for sure. Bro,
[24:01] Speaker 1: what happens if Giannis goes down? Dope or dog food? Stop. Stop.
[24:05] Speaker 1: I mean, what happens if I go down?
[24:07] Speaker 6: If Giannis goes down with this team, there's no hope.
[24:12] Speaker 6: You can't say you're top three. I mean, that's a
[24:14] Speaker 6: lot of.
[24:15] Speaker 1: Who said that about everybody? No, he said top three
[24:18] Speaker 1: was CP3, yes. No way. Still. Even if you got everybody.
[24:21] Speaker 1: But I'm saying if that... No, no, no. That one
[24:23] Speaker 1: guy voted... We're here.
[24:27] Speaker 6: So with this guy, if he go down, if Giannis
[24:30] Speaker 6: go down with this group, y'all.
[24:32] Speaker 1: Are– it's nothing. What, we're not making the playoffs? Nothing.
[24:35] Speaker 1: If they get Chris Paul and.
[24:37] Speaker 5: Giannis go down, Bobby Porter– Nothing.
[24:40] Speaker 1: We're not getting the playoffs at all. Y'all not getting it. Nah, nah, nah.
[24:43] Speaker 1: Y'all not beating the Wizards. Nah, all right, all right,
[24:47] Speaker 1: all right. Without Giannis? All right, all right. All right. Listen,
[24:50] Speaker 1: we make it. If Giannis go down, we put Bobby there.
[24:52] Speaker 1: We're still without Giannis. I feel a forced crash out.
[24:55] Speaker 1: You got Milwaukee Bucks fucked up. Without Giannis? I feel
[24:57] Speaker 1: you're baiting him into a crash out. Premature. Barely known.
[25:01] Speaker 1: Marcus Smart. Middleton. It's barely known right now. Who else
[25:05] Speaker 1: did they get? Sar. Who else did Washington just get?
[25:10] Speaker 1: CJ McCullough. Still aggressive. Joe. Who was the four? Somebody else.
[25:15] Speaker 1: What's the dog food called? They got somebody else.
[25:19] Speaker 2: It's like all vet teams and shit. They'll mock them. Yeah,
[25:22] Speaker 2: dope or rough greens. Yo, dope or rough greens. We
[25:25] Speaker 2: appreciate you upgrading rough greens at roughgreens.com.
[25:28] Speaker 1: That does happen. Fomocote Arena. Because it takes.
[25:34] Speaker 3: A lot of the coaching out of Doc's hands with
[25:41] Speaker 3: CP being on the floor. There's a lot of familiarity there.
[25:45] Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what CP is going to do.
[25:48] Speaker 1: You know you're going to get a good shot. Paola,
[25:50] Speaker 1: can we show that starting five one more time, please? Gil,
[25:54] Speaker 1: I have a question for you.
[25:55] Speaker 2: So we see the starting five, but we know the
[25:56] Speaker 2: most important person in the starting five is Giannis. Like
[25:59] Speaker 2: I mentioned, Chris Haynes reporting Giannis very upset with how
[26:02] Speaker 2: the Bucs did Dame. Also has been applying the pressure
[26:06] Speaker 2: with this Bucs organization to make some moves, bring some
[26:08] Speaker 2: players in to keep his championship window open. Do you
[26:10] Speaker 2: think the Bucs have done enough to keep Giannis happy
[26:13] Speaker 2: with these offseason moves so far?
[26:16] Speaker 1: We'll see in 48 hours, like y'all said. Is there
[26:23] Speaker 1: any other- I mean, they stole somebody that they wasn't
[26:25] Speaker 1: expecting to get. I mean, it does help. I mean,
[26:28] Speaker 1: you know, you lose Dame, you lose 20, what, 26, 25,
[26:32] Speaker 1: and what, six? Get miles. It helps stretch the floor.
[26:41] Speaker 1: You average 16 and seven, two blocks last season. So
[26:43] Speaker 1: with this- As stand right there, just say CP don't go.
[26:55] Speaker 1: Does the ball move better with that five without Dane?
[27:03] Speaker 1: It moves better. Yeah.
[27:05] Speaker 4: Just a little slower. Probably less possessions in the game,
[27:11] Speaker 4: but it's controlled. What they probably need, right? You know,
[27:16] Speaker 4: you maximize every possession, especially in the last five, six minutes.
[27:22] Speaker 1: There won't be no wild shots taken.
[27:26] Speaker 4: They won't lose those close games where turnover, two bad.
[27:30] Speaker 1: Shots, a charge, everything's going to be.
[27:36] Speaker 1: I mean, they'll be tough. It's the Eastern Conference. If
[27:40] Speaker 1: they get crisp, they should be top three.
[27:47] Speaker 2: Even without CPT right now, as it stands with this
[27:49] Speaker 2: roster right now.
[27:50] Speaker 1: And they're still wild. None of that five minutes even matter.
[27:53] Speaker 1: The top six team. Top six, top seven. Top six
[27:57] Speaker 1: team without Chris Paul. Wild, then you got Kevin Porter.
[28:00] Speaker 4: He's just going to be doing what Kuzma is going
[28:02] Speaker 4: to be doing, what Kuzma do.
[28:03] Speaker 1: Giannis is going to be.
[28:04] Speaker 10: We need some type of structure. We need some type
[28:06] Speaker 10: of structure. We need structure, man. But I'm just saying,
[28:09] Speaker 10: you'll lose. You wouldn't want to lose. We need structure
[28:12] Speaker 10: right now. Yeah, they need structure. We need structure bad, seriously.
[28:16] Speaker 1: They got the Hawks making moves. That will put structure
[28:20] Speaker 1: in the game? No.
[28:22] Speaker 7: Is there a world, I hate to say, if Dame
[28:25] Speaker 7: wasn't hurt, would they have traded him this summer?
[28:30] Speaker 1: Say that again? No, I mean, if he wasn't hurt,
[28:31] Speaker 1: then he would have been playing, and it could have been,
[28:33] Speaker 1: we don't know. How y'all think Dame feel about this?
[28:36] Speaker 5: I know that's... If I'm Dame, I'm happy, because, I mean,
[28:40] Speaker 5: I'm still getting my money, and now I can pick.
[28:41] Speaker 1: Where I want to go. Sean, how do you think
[28:45] Speaker 1: Dane feels? We all agree he's elated.
[28:51] Speaker 2: 22 million for the next five years.
[28:54] Speaker 1: The word that he used. To not live in Milwaukee.
[28:57] Speaker 1: He's extremely excited about this. You think so? I don't
[29:00] Speaker 1: know he's happy about getting his money, but Dane never
[29:02] Speaker 1: seen this happen to Dane. getting waived and all that shit.
[29:12] Speaker 4: Nobody's seen getting waived for.
[29:15] Speaker 1: All your money.
[29:15] Speaker 4: Usually it's a buyout and me and you got to negotiate.
[29:19] Speaker 1: He's not happy.
[29:20] Speaker 4: You got to usually negotiate for a buyout, right? That
[29:23] Speaker 4: means like if you owe.
[29:25] Speaker 2: Me $ 125, $.
[29:26] Speaker 4: 135, $ 113, now I got to try to figure out
[29:28] Speaker 4: how much I'm going to give you back, like $ 95
[29:31] Speaker 4: and all that.
[29:32] Speaker 1: No, no, no, no. He gets to wake up.
[29:34] Speaker 4: He gets to wake up all 113 and then he
[29:37] Speaker 4: can sign a new deal for extra money.
[29:40] Speaker 3: What'd I say yesterday, Nick? Nick, what'd I say yesterday?
[29:44] Speaker 3: I'm like, nah, I don't like that number. Like, nah,
[29:46] Speaker 3: I don't like that number. I don't like that number.
[29:50] Speaker 3: I don't like that number neither.
[29:53] Speaker 1: What number you like? My number. Let me get that.
[29:57] Speaker 1: I like that number. That number right there. I'll take
[30:03] Speaker 1: that one. Me and buyout didn't sign this motherfucker together.
[30:07] Speaker 1: Are you watching this? What name on that contract? Me
[30:12] Speaker 1: and Biop have been signing this motherfucker together.
[30:15] Speaker 7: You can tell he didn't want to be in Milwaukee anyway.
[30:17] Speaker 1: Thank you. It's an acquired city. Look, that was an
[30:21] Speaker 1: agreement they reached. They reached that. Look, let me go
[30:24] Speaker 1: somewhere and y'all going to give me my money. He
[30:26] Speaker 1: can go to Miami. That's where he's going. What do
[30:29] Speaker 1: you mean? He's going to Miami. So that was my
[30:32] Speaker 1: next question. Do you think Dave loves Miami as much
[30:35] Speaker 1: as he did prior to that? Watch. Or can you
[30:38] Speaker 1: make a move back to the Boundaries?
[30:40] Speaker 2: He's clear to go. He's clear to go. His homie's here.
[30:42] Speaker 2: He only went to go for Jimmy, though.
[30:45] Speaker 1: I think he can just sit right now and then
[30:47] Speaker 1: see what the layout is and then sign somewhere in February.
[30:51] Speaker 1: Whatever it is, he's just chill right now to do
[30:53] Speaker 1: his rehab. You sign somewhere in February? You can sit.
[30:57] Speaker 1: Who playing? Well, what can I go for me? Hey, OKC,
[31:02] Speaker 1: what y'all doing over here? She says, I'm getting my
[31:05] Speaker 1: bread this year. Hey, y'all need a vet. I need
[31:10] Speaker 1: a vet. I don't like the fact that I'm out
[31:13] Speaker 1: the league. That's what I'm saying. That's what it is
[31:15] Speaker 1: right now. That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying.
[31:17] Speaker 1: So for me, I need a home. I need to
[31:20] Speaker 1: set up a shop right now. I'm top 75. I
[31:22] Speaker 1: need to set up a shop. That's what I'm saying.
[31:24] Speaker 1: You see your career looking like this.
[31:26] Speaker 2: I'm top 75, man. Do I got to wear my
[31:27] Speaker 2: jacket around as my birthday gift, bro? That's what I'm saying.
[31:30] Speaker 2: I don't think he happy right now, man. I think
[31:32] Speaker 2: he in a good place. You get to pick. You
[31:35] Speaker 2: get all your money and pick where you want to go.
[31:38] Speaker 2: This is what Ace Bailey was trying to do.
[31:40] Speaker 1: Get his money and pick where he gets to go.
[31:44] Speaker 1: Ace willing to take a discount. Discount. This is the
[31:47] Speaker 1: first time in his career he could do it. You
[31:50] Speaker 1: literally get to sit back the beginning, because you're rehabbing,
[31:53] Speaker 1: the beginning of the year and sit there and do
[31:55] Speaker 1: one of these. Yeah. I can get it.
[32:00] Speaker 4: Whatever he signs is extra money. It's extra money. His
[32:04] Speaker 4: contract is with his contract, so he's making more money now.
[32:07] Speaker 4: Because whatever he signs for is added.
[32:10] Speaker 3: So basically, he got a five-year, $ 113 million deal.
[32:14] Speaker 1: Guaranteed. Guaranteed money. Lock that up. Not to do shit.
[32:20] Speaker 1: To chill.
[32:21] Speaker 2: I can retire right now. He's out to leave. He's
[32:26] Speaker 2: out to leave. No, he's not out to leave. Let
[32:30] Speaker 2: me put you in Dame's position now.
[32:32] Speaker 1: You got five years, $ 113 million guaranteed. Let people forget
[32:36] Speaker 1: about you.
[32:37] Speaker 2: You got five years, $ 113 million guaranteed. Do you spend
[32:39] Speaker 2: this season ring chasing? One year deal, go to OKC,
[32:42] Speaker 2: go somewhere that has the potential to win a ring
[32:45] Speaker 2: and then figure it out beyond that?
[32:48] Speaker 1: So what did we say was first? You do what first?
[32:50] Speaker 1: Get your money. And then what was second? Green. So therefore,
[32:54] Speaker 1: you answered your own question, Josiah. Josiah, you answered your
[32:57] Speaker 1: own question. There we go.
[32:58] Speaker 2: OKC would be a prime destination for you.
[33:01] Speaker 1: I'm signing every February. Every February. What's up? I'm not
[33:07] Speaker 1: doing What y'all got going on over there? Where can
[33:11] Speaker 1: they come and start? Houston? Orlando? Is it about starting
[33:13] Speaker 1: though right now? What I'm saying is when he comes back,
[33:15] Speaker 1: once he comes back and they start next year and
[33:17] Speaker 1: he done healed, it's him and Fred. You got to
[33:19] Speaker 1: play defense for that coach. The best defense is a
[33:42] Speaker 1: good offense. Sacramento. Milwaukee said that. So you're going to
[33:47] Speaker 1: send him to the grave. You're just going to throw
[33:48] Speaker 1: the dirt on him. I'm just looking at places. So
[33:50] Speaker 1: you're just going to put him in the hole and
[33:52] Speaker 1: throw the dirt on him. They just signed Dennis. Milwaukee.
[33:54] Speaker 1: So you're just going to put the dirt on him
[33:56] Speaker 1: in Sacramento. I was just throwing some shit out there.
[33:59] Speaker 1: In the grave, y'all. Put the dirt on him. Might
[34:02] Speaker 1: as well bury him. Minnesota. That's what you're doing. Minnesota?
[34:06] Speaker 1: Now you're talking an interesting concept right there. You got
[34:09] Speaker 1: Mike Conley. That's how Mike Finley got his ring, right?
[34:12] Speaker 1: He got that ring like that too, right? Just like
[34:14] Speaker 1: San Antonio when he got the back in Minnesota. Got
[34:18] Speaker 1: Amnesty out. And he was... You think he like Conley?
[34:21] Speaker 1: You think he gonna look like... No, man. How old
[34:22] Speaker 1: is Dan? At 35, he'll be 36. Yeah, 35. At 34,
[34:23] Speaker 1: he'll be 35 in two weeks. Off Achilles at 36?
[34:24] Speaker 1: 35 years old. Tell him. Tell him. What's up? You know,
[34:39] Speaker 1: how long does, hey, how long does Dane play then?
[34:41] Speaker 1: I don't know. Let's just start hurting yourself. That's insane.
[34:43] Speaker 1: That's the feeling we're all in. In theory, at least
[34:47] Speaker 1: another five years, that's $ 22 million. Man, that's something.
[34:50] Speaker 6: Because that one year of rehab is going to be
[34:52] Speaker 6: some shit at 37.
[34:53] Speaker 1: What? He's 35. He's 34. He'll be 35. He's 34.
[34:54] Speaker 1: He's 34. About to be 35 in two weeks. So, yeah,
[34:56] Speaker 1: he got some time. He got about another year and
[34:58] Speaker 1: a half. He'll be 35 in two weeks. He'll be 35.
[35:05] Speaker 2: How would y'all feel if Dane went to the Warriors
[35:08] Speaker 2: to play with Steph back there?
[35:09] Speaker 1: That's 36-37 right there. Man, that's, that's, uh, the Achilles
[35:13] Speaker 1: put three years on you. No, that's, that's our era.
[35:18] Speaker 1: That's our era. That's our era. You're not this, you're
[35:21] Speaker 1: not this era. No, no, no, no, no. So it's
[35:25] Speaker 1: two injuries, right? So remember, he don't jump, he don't
[35:28] Speaker 1: jump off one foot. It's a tear and a rupture, right?
[35:30] Speaker 1: So with Dane, you don't lose nothing. He had a rupture. Oh, damn.
[35:35] Speaker 1: So he a year out. He's a whole year out. Shit.
[35:38] Speaker 1: Achilles affect your upper band. It affects up. The whole shebang.
[35:42] Speaker 1: It don't affect running. It affects jumping. I know, but
[35:46] Speaker 1: did he look like Dane from Portland and Milwaukee? The
[35:49] Speaker 1: thing is, it's already come. No.
[35:51] Speaker 3: But he don't rely on athleticism.
[35:54] Speaker 1: He's going to be coming down there. He's like KD.
[35:56] Speaker 1: He don't rely on that. It's more shooting and things
[36:02] Speaker 1: than speed and athleticism. So I think he'll be okay after,
[36:06] Speaker 1: but we'll see. But no, it's very interesting. Like Marlo said,
[36:11] Speaker 1: one of those good problems. Yeah. Good problem to have.
[36:14] Speaker 1: I got five years to figure it out. No. I
[36:17] Speaker 1: got three months. I got a few months to figure
[36:20] Speaker 1: it out. You see what I did? I was figuring
[36:22] Speaker 1: it out. I got a little comment. This is some
[36:25] Speaker 1: nice-ass things. What are you doing? I'm just the artist.
[36:34] Speaker 1: Looking for that ring, boy. Yeah, I ain't going to lie.
[36:38] Speaker 1: Once like six months, once like six, eight months go by,
[36:43] Speaker 1: it's hard to done got a whole bunch of checks.
[36:46] Speaker 4: To sit on the couch today and say, hey, man,
[36:51] Speaker 4: we got 100,000 for you a month to come on
[36:53] Speaker 4: over here.
[36:53] Speaker 1: You're going to lie. And to add on to it, right?
[36:58] Speaker 1: But to add on to it what he's doing. He
[37:00] Speaker 1: want that.
[37:02] Speaker 3: This happens. He's spending more time with his kids now, bruh.
[37:06] Speaker 1: Yep, start seeing shit you ain't seen before. Taking them
[37:08] Speaker 1: to school, picking them, all this shit matters, dog. He
[37:12] Speaker 1: ain't gonna want to leave that. He ain't gonna want
[37:15] Speaker 1: to leave that. He's making a king's ransom for doing nothing.
[37:19] Speaker 2: I got to go hang out with my kids. Somebody
[37:21] Speaker 2: come get these damn kids.
[37:23] Speaker 1: Somebody come get these damn kids. That's like after a
[37:25] Speaker 1: year and a half. Y'all better come stop me. I'm
[37:27] Speaker 1: going to say, you're going to miss that road. That's
[37:28] Speaker 1: after a year. That's after a year and a half.
[37:31] Speaker 1: He's single. He's single. I know. I'm saying. He ain't
[37:33] Speaker 1: going to miss it. The road get to come to him. Yeah. Miami.
[37:35] Speaker 1: You missed the road.
[37:41] Speaker 2: He going to play again. I'm just saying. We will
[37:45] Speaker 2: see where Dame ends up. Let's shift back to the Bucs.
[37:48] Speaker 2: We talked about Giannis. If he should be happy or
[37:51] Speaker 2: not with.
[37:51] Speaker 1: The moves of Bucs.
[37:52] Speaker 2: May we ask the chat, have the Bucs done enough
[37:54] Speaker 2: to keep Giannis happy? 83% of the chat says no.
[37:58] Speaker 1: I think they can trade. Giannis would look really good
[38:01] Speaker 1: in the Lakers. That's cool, man.
[38:02] Speaker 2: Fireworks in the arena and around the NBA. So just
[38:10] Speaker 2: back to how the Bucs did Dame. I just saw
[38:12] Speaker 2: the hook.
[38:14] Speaker 1: Good graphic. Sexton, Colin Sexton. Look at somebody like that. No,
[38:18] Speaker 1: he went to, where'd he go? Oh, he got traded.
[38:21] Speaker 1: I believe the Hornets. Yeah, the Hornets with the Hornets.
[38:25] Speaker 1: JC to the New York.
[38:28] Speaker 2: So in terms of how the Bucs did Dame, where
[38:30] Speaker 2: does waving Dame rank in terms of the coldest moves
[38:32] Speaker 2: you've seen a franchise do?
[38:36] Speaker 1: I mean, that's not bad. Very warm move. Very warm.
[38:42] Speaker 1: They both agreed, and it both worked out for both teams.
[38:45] Speaker 1: So good for both parties in this situation. He got
[38:47] Speaker 1: all his money. Yeah, he got all his money. The
[38:49] Speaker 1: Bucks was able to get somebody. And he can go
[38:51] Speaker 1: where he want to go. And some. I say this
[38:54] Speaker 1: is the American dream. This is what I know. You
[38:57] Speaker 1: got to put this money in. You got to switch this.
[39:00] Speaker 1: Appreciate you. What is this ranking? Good. Good. Not bad.
[39:04] Speaker 1: Where does this rank in terms of the warmest moves
[39:06] Speaker 1: you've seen in the NBA? I'm doctoring that motherfucker right now.
[39:10] Speaker 2: Where does this rank in terms of the warmest moves
[39:12] Speaker 2: you've seen in the franchise?
[39:13] Speaker 4: This is probably up there with top five best.
[39:17] Speaker 1: Moves that can happen for a player. I'm going to
[39:21] Speaker 1: pay you five.
[39:21] Speaker 4: Because you got to remember, whatever, like, you know Shea?
[39:25] Speaker 1: Right? He just signed a deal. You got to play
[39:27] Speaker 1: for that. He just signed a deal. John Wall. Yeah,
[39:32] Speaker 1: I know he wanted to play, but go ask him.
[39:34] Speaker 1: 44-inch shield. 42-inch shield. 44-inch shield. 46-inch shield. To do
[39:40] Speaker 1: absolutely nothing. Come on, man. It's like hitting the lottery.
[39:45] Speaker 1: This is literally hitting the lottery. 45, 47. $ 42 million,
[39:51] Speaker 1: $ 44 million. Like I said, he wanted to play. Yes, absolutely. No,
[39:56] Speaker 1: I said no. He wanted to play. Stop. It's in
[40:01] Speaker 1: his eyes. Oh, cool. I want to play too, but
[40:05] Speaker 1: if you give him, listen. How much did we get?
[40:07] Speaker 1: All of it.
[40:08] Speaker 4: $ 22 million a.
[40:11] Speaker 1: Year for the next five years. That's what they owe
[40:15] Speaker 1: on top of the contract, but they can probably extend
[40:17] Speaker 1: it how they want to. They're going to stretch it.
[40:20] Speaker 1: They can stretch it if they want to. So five years,
[40:24] Speaker 1: $ 22 million. You're getting paid five years, $ 22 million to
[40:26] Speaker 1: not live in Milwaukee. But who got the best deal ever?
[40:30] Speaker 1: It's Bobby Bonilla. On Bobby Bonilla Day? Listen, Jack. That's baseball, right? Baseball.
[40:37] Speaker 1: How many more? God damn. Every July 1st, you get
[40:41] Speaker 1: a check. He ain't picked up a bat since Wednesday.
[40:44] Speaker 1: What's the year? Give us the year. 2001. This man
[40:47] Speaker 1: ain't picked up a baseball bat since 2001. And he
[40:52] Speaker 1: has been getting paid. You're talking about a deal. Eye black.
[40:58] Speaker 1: Mine's up 2016. You're talking about a deal? They're making mid. Listen.
[41:05] Speaker 1: $ 1. 19 million every July 1st. That's nice. For the next
[41:09] Speaker 1: 10 years. The Portland owner, they didn't do good by then.
[41:13] Speaker 1: He'll be 72 years old when he gets his last shot. Portland,
[41:17] Speaker 1: it was a whole different little field. But now, I
[41:20] Speaker 1: think Milwaukee done right by him. You think Portland didn't
[41:23] Speaker 1: do right by him? No, him and the owner was riffing.
[41:26] Speaker 1: At the end. Owner, GM, Joe Cronin.
[41:27] Speaker 6: He didn't want Dame by the team and none of that.
[41:30] Speaker 1: Didn't send Dame where he wanted to go. Right? So Dame,
[41:33] Speaker 1: think about that happening twice to Dame. And then traded
[41:36] Speaker 1: Drew Holiday too.
[41:37] Speaker 6: So that's a great move by the ownership to actually
[41:39] Speaker 6: do it that way just so he don't have that
[41:41] Speaker 6: residual following him of thinking that it was him the
[41:45] Speaker 6: whole time.
[41:46] Speaker 1: And, you know, he had a career.
[41:47] Speaker 6: What he did in Portland now, he can figure out
[41:50] Speaker 6: what he want to do now, get all his money.
[41:52] Speaker 6: It's a great move from both sides. We always bash
[41:55] Speaker 6: the other side. He didn't want to go to Miami.
[41:58] Speaker 1: If he had a workout today for his Achilles, I'd 1,000%
[42:02] Speaker 1: for sure he didn't show up. It goes that fast.
[42:07] Speaker 1: He just got hurt. No, no, I'm just saying, you know,
[42:10] Speaker 1: he got rehab. It's Tuesday. He woke up and was like... Hey, man.
[42:14] Speaker 1: All right, man. Look. You didn't know, right? Yeah, all right, man. Look,
[42:20] Speaker 1: I'm about to... July weekend. Yeah, man. I'm going to
[42:22] Speaker 1: go ahead and tell you. I'll see you Monday, man.
[42:25] Speaker 1: I'm about to go to St. Martin's.
[42:27] Speaker 4: Nah.
[42:28] Speaker 1: Fly up to PJ, baby. Word. Hey, man. Tell him
[42:32] Speaker 1: six holes, man. We can go to St. Martin's. Fly
[42:34] Speaker 1: up to PJ, baby. Six honorable women. Private. Private. Private.
[42:42] Speaker 1: Shout out Bobby Bonilla. Come on, name post how you
[42:46] Speaker 1: really feel. Nah, he can't do it. He can't do it.
[42:52] Speaker 1: Take this bread and leave. All right, well, let's keep
[42:54] Speaker 1: this moving since we're talking about bread.
[42:56] Speaker 2: Like Gil, like you mentioned, SGA, a lot of bread coming,
[42:58] Speaker 2: but he actually has to show up to work to
[43:00] Speaker 2: get his bread. So Shea Gillis Alexander coming off a
[43:02] Speaker 2: season where he swept all the awards, MVP, Western Conference
[43:05] Speaker 2: Finals MVP, and Finals MVP in addition to a scoring title.
[43:10] Speaker 1: So to the victor go the spoils.
[43:11] Speaker 2: SGA agreed to a maximum four-year, $ 285 million extension with
[43:16] Speaker 2: the Thunder that will keep them in OKC until the
[43:20] Speaker 2: 2030-31 season. So SGA's contract has an average annual value
[43:23] Speaker 2: of $ 71. 25 million per season, which is the richest in
[43:29] Speaker 2: NBA history.
[43:30] Speaker 1: God damn. Beautiful moment. But when you look at this,
[43:34] Speaker 1: what's left for SGA to achieve in the NBA? Fuck.
[43:37] Speaker 1: More money, more championships. His second extension with the Thunder. 71.
[43:44] Speaker 1: I mean, well-deserved. For sure.
[43:46] Speaker 7: That's what happens when you win, boy.
[43:52] Speaker 1: That's what happens when you win. Shout out Bon Alexander
[43:54] Speaker 1: as well for breeding a MVP. He dominated the whole year.
[43:59] Speaker 1: Thank you. Did everything one. Just want to take a
[44:05] Speaker 1: moment for SGA. All I do is win, win. We
[44:08] Speaker 1: should be playing that song. I ain't never seen no
[44:14] Speaker 1: shit like this.
[44:15] Speaker 7: Win MVP, finals MVP, championship, 71 a year.
[44:20] Speaker 1: All in one year. God love him. God does love SGA.
[44:27] Speaker 1: He stays consistent. Man, he got the right white woman.
[44:33] Speaker 1: I told you. Why y'all don't listen to me? You
[44:35] Speaker 1: don't listen. You don't listen. You don't listen at all. Yeah,
[44:42] Speaker 1: like 10%. It's like her granddaddy, granddaddy. Yeah, like Chrissy Jones. No,
[44:46] Speaker 1: I think her daddy's black. I think her daddy's black.
[44:48] Speaker 1: He was in her life. Papa was a rolling stone, man.
[44:50] Speaker 1: Papa was a rolling stone. But he was in her life.
[44:52] Speaker 1: That matters. She don't know where she is. That matters. No, no, no,
[45:05] Speaker 1: that matters. She's his wife. That's what she said. I'm
[45:08] Speaker 1: your wife. You got him in your life. It matters.
[45:13] Speaker 1: Give that man a big piece of chicken. She know.
[45:17] Speaker 1: Focus on basketball. I got the rest of this year.
[45:19] Speaker 1: Not amply seasoned, but nonetheless. You ain't got no outside stress.
[45:24] Speaker 1: No home, no inside stress. Come home. So what is
[45:27] Speaker 1: SGA's Supermax extension? We can do it all again. Remember,
[45:35] Speaker 1: you used to come with scratches. We almost got killed
[45:38] Speaker 1: on the freeway with me. Right? Damn, brother! We went
[45:44] Speaker 1: through it. I wish I could have came home. I
[45:47] Speaker 1: didn't cheat enough. That cut the pressure. I was cheating
[45:52] Speaker 1: every road trip. No, we did. Man, just... Just the
[45:54] Speaker 1: two of us. We ain't never been that happy. What?
[46:04] Speaker 1: It was just the two of you together Thanksgiving. Southern,
[46:06] Speaker 1: you're getting scratched on that side. You're getting damp here. Huh? Yes, sir.
[46:14] Speaker 4: He getting scratched on his side. We damn near getting
[46:17] Speaker 4: killed on the freeway. Run off, hit, bop, bop, on
[46:20] Speaker 4: the freeway.
[46:20] Speaker 1: Yeah. When Thanksgiving comes, hey, man, I got all this food.
[46:24] Speaker 1: What you want to do with it? Let's eat, man.
[46:26] Speaker 1: We together, man. Thank you, Lord. You have two brothers
[46:31] Speaker 1: that came together to bless this field. We had three cakes. What? So, S.J.,
[46:41] Speaker 1: I'm going to do this move now instead of next season.
[46:46] Speaker 2: But what does this mean for the Thunders championship window
[46:48] Speaker 2: moving forward? They got the MVP locked in. It's looking very,
[46:56] Speaker 2: very good. Hey, there's a light at the end of Daytona,
[47:01] Speaker 2: and Daytona's short. And there ain't a train coming. They listen, bro.
[47:08] Speaker 1: Hey, all right, moving forward. Team-friendly, man. I think it
[47:15] Speaker 1: saves a couple million. A couple hundred? A hundred? What?
[47:19] Speaker 1: A hundred?
[47:20] Speaker 2: No, I think the way it'll break down, he'll obviously
[47:21] Speaker 2: be eligible for another extension now sooner.
[47:24] Speaker 1: I've got a year sooner. Because he didn't sign next summer.
[47:31] Speaker 1: Now you just got to seal down the other two. Yeah,
[47:35] Speaker 1: that helps, Chet.
[47:38] Speaker 2: So you go all in with that big three, and
[47:40] Speaker 2: then obviously when it gets to that point, not going
[47:42] Speaker 2: to be there for a little bit, but figure.
[47:43] Speaker 1: Out the rest. But what you got already, you ain't
[47:46] Speaker 1: got to change much, man. You got to change some
[47:48] Speaker 1: pieces because somebody's going to give somebody else some money.
[47:50] Speaker 1: Of course, especially if they go back-to-back, it's just going
[47:53] Speaker 1: to be tough to keep it as is. But you can–
[47:57] Speaker 1: they ain't going to be able to keep the top nine.
[47:59] Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? It's going to be hard
[48:02] Speaker 1: to keep the top three.
[48:03] Speaker 4: I mean, I think Lou Dort is probably the one
[48:06] Speaker 4: that's going to have to– He's going to have to
[48:09] Speaker 4: take that pass. He's going to have to take that pass. Yeah,
[48:12] Speaker 4: if he wants to stay there. Because, you know, you
[48:15] Speaker 4: got Chet, you got, you know, Williams up.
[48:19] Speaker 1: And they're going to have to sign their rookie extensions.
[48:23] Speaker 2: Both of them are going to be looking for Max. So,
[48:25] Speaker 2: the Thunder have Dort for two more years. They got
[48:27] Speaker 2: a team option next summer. What's that football should they do?
[48:32] Speaker 1: Oh, next summer, yeah. Because all this money we're going
[48:35] Speaker 1: to kick in next summer, right? Yeah.
[48:39] Speaker 2: So do look team off for Hartenstein, team off for
[48:42] Speaker 2: Lou Dort, team off for Kendrick Williams.
[48:44] Speaker 1: Yeah.
[48:44] Speaker 7: Wiggins, the shooter off the bench that was hitting all
[48:49] Speaker 7: those shots.
[48:50] Speaker 1: Wait, man, you never answered this question. What was that?
[48:53] Speaker 1: Because you what is that you can. You can invest
[48:59] Speaker 1: into the team. What is that? What is that? Nobody
[49:02] Speaker 1: has explained that yet. With the CBA? Yes. With the
[49:06] Speaker 1: new one? Yes. Where you can invest in the team. Like,
[49:09] Speaker 1: what is that option? What does that option look like?
[49:11] Speaker 1: With the contract, right? Yeah. Don't know. Couldn't tell you, killer.
[49:15] Speaker 1: Let me look it up for you. That's a real thing. Yeah,
[49:18] Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. What is it?
[49:20] Speaker 2: So, allows NBA players to invest in both NBA and
[49:22] Speaker 2: WNBA teams, but with specific limitations to ensure competitive integrity
[49:26] Speaker 2: and prevent undue influence on team operations.
[49:32] Speaker 1: So that can be negotiated through most likely loophole. They can,
[49:35] Speaker 1: I can negotiate that through my contract.
[49:37] Speaker 2: So they can invest in teams and NBA teams through
[49:39] Speaker 2: approved investment funds and they can invest in WNBA teams,
[49:43] Speaker 2: not currently owned by NBA owners.
[49:47] Speaker 1: Okay. Okay, cool. Now let's say one of them young
[49:50] Speaker 1: boys is one of them young boys aside. I want
[49:53] Speaker 1: to take half my money and then the other half,
[49:56] Speaker 1: put it into the bucks organization. Um, Not both. You
[50:00] Speaker 1: can't do that? I mean, not the both. I'm sorry. No, no.
[50:03] Speaker 1: You lose all that money. Thunder. Right? I go into
[50:07] Speaker 1: the thunder. But I can do that, right? I think
[50:09] Speaker 1: it's through the union. That's what I'm saying. It's kind
[50:11] Speaker 1: of a... You put it in an equity fund. Sort
[50:22] Speaker 1: of like a trust and... Oh. I think it's through
[50:27] Speaker 1: the union and you can invest in that equity fund. Basically,
[50:29] Speaker 1: this doesn't help any of the teams there because they
[50:32] Speaker 1: can't use it against their cap.
[50:38] Speaker 2: It's an opportunity for the players to make money.
[50:41] Speaker 1: Is that what it is?
[50:42] Speaker 2: It's another opportunity to make money.
[50:47] Speaker 1: But you can't use your contract money. You got to
[50:49] Speaker 1: use your money in your bank account. All right, give
[50:52] Speaker 1: it to me first. It comes there. Transfer. Thank you.
[51:00] Speaker 1: Once again, shout out SGA. Get in the back. 285.
[51:02] Speaker 1: I was trying to figure out if there can be
[51:05] Speaker 1: some loopholes. You can use that. Over four years. Extension
[51:10] Speaker 1: kicks in next season. Thunder will have some decisions to
[51:15] Speaker 1: make down the road. Not sweating anytime soon. They're good, man.
[51:18] Speaker 3: Again, good problems to have. Coming off a chip. Great
[51:22] Speaker 3: chance to go back-to-back, man.
[51:24] Speaker 1: Why did all that and then got paid super paid?
[51:28] Speaker 1: As a free agent? Yeah. So they got to win
[51:30] Speaker 1: a six-day game next year?
[51:31] Speaker 2: No, he's still, I mean, he got Jalen Brown and
[51:34] Speaker 2: Tatum who both signed the Super Maxes, I believe.
[51:37] Speaker 1: After they won the championship, right? Yeah. and back-to-back summers,
[51:40] Speaker 1: and then obviously stuff. But he wasn't MVP, finals MVP?
[51:43] Speaker 1: He was all that too? It don't matter. No, it
[51:45] Speaker 1: wasn't before. He signed before. Max is Max. No, like,
[51:47] Speaker 1: he can eat extra food. Get everything. Tatum signed last summer.
[51:50] Speaker 1: He didn't get everything. That's what I'm saying. He got
[51:53] Speaker 1: everything like you dreamed of in one year. Yeah. Yeah.
[51:58] Speaker 1: Think about it.
[51:59] Speaker 7: All the money, MVP championships, finals MVP, first team, all that.
[52:04] Speaker 7: Fucking the number one team, like everything.
[52:08] Speaker 4: All you need is just call 2K right now and say, man,
[52:10] Speaker 4: I want to be on the cover.
[52:11] Speaker 1: I got to be on it. They're going to call him. Yeah, yeah.
[52:14] Speaker 1: Let me be on the cover this year. This year.
[52:15] Speaker 1: This year. Oh, yeah. Well, as I say, God is good. No.
[52:22] Speaker 1: He's not 99 on the game? 98 is the highest
[52:25] Speaker 1: you can get. We will see. All right.
[52:28] Speaker 2: Well, let's keep this in the Western Conference. I'll push
[52:30] Speaker 2: off MJ. Houston Rockets have been busy over the last
[52:33] Speaker 2: two weeks. So on the eve of Game 7 of
[52:35] Speaker 2: the finals, news of the Kevin Durant trade broke. Since then,
[52:38] Speaker 2: they've agreed to extensions with head coach Emei Adoka, Stephen Adams,
[52:41] Speaker 2: and Jabari Smith Jr. signed a five-year, $ 122 million rookie extension.
[52:45] Speaker 2: Re-signed Fred VanVleet after they had the team option, worked
[52:50] Speaker 2: out a deal with him. Bessie spread that over two years.
[52:54] Speaker 1: Wait, wait. So Rockets had a team option on VanVleet. Uh-huh. So...
[53:01] Speaker 1: and then made it a two-year. So how much he
[53:03] Speaker 1: was making? He was going to make like 43 or something.
[53:04] Speaker 1: So it was basically the same 40. Sprinkle a little
[53:08] Speaker 1: bit more on it. Okay, a little bit more, spread
[53:10] Speaker 1: it on two. Yeah. Okay, Fred, I got my, you know.
[53:14] Speaker 1: Make that. That's it, that's that.
[53:16] Speaker 2: Okay, I'll fuck with you, Fred. I'll fuck with you, Fred.
[53:18] Speaker 2: But now in the last 24 hours, they've agreed to
[53:21] Speaker 2: terms with free agent center Clint Capella on a three-year
[53:24] Speaker 2: $ 22 million deal. And for Dorian Finney-Smith, also known during
[53:27] Speaker 2: his Lakers time as Black and Milds, To a four-year,
[53:32] Speaker 2: $ 53 million deal. He can't take his nickname with him.
[53:34] Speaker 2: He can't take his nickname with him, dawg. Also known
[53:37] Speaker 2: during his Laker time.
[53:38] Speaker 1: Why not? During his Laker time. Oh, that was his
[53:41] Speaker 1: Laker name. No, he tried to fuck him. No, no, no.
[53:44] Speaker 2: No, no, no, no.
[53:44] Speaker 1: I get what you're saying. Fuck him. Fuck him. He's
[53:47] Speaker 1: not part of this organization. Well, technically, technically, technically, I
[53:52] Speaker 1: got me some Houston shit just in case I need
[53:54] Speaker 1: to jump ship. You know, I'm red-dead ready. Right, so,
[53:57] Speaker 1: you know, I, you know. You got no black and mild.
[53:59] Speaker 1: Just call him black. You ain't got no black and mild.
[54:01] Speaker 1: Just call him black. Just call him black. His name
[54:04] Speaker 1: is just Dorian. Just be mild. Be black. He's just
[54:07] Speaker 1: mild now. Just, you know. No more.
[54:12] Speaker 11: No more Black and Mild in La La Land.
[54:16] Speaker 2: But looking at what the Rockets have done this offseason,
[54:18] Speaker 2: how would you grade the Rockets' offseason moves? We're going
[54:21] Speaker 2: to start with you, Mr. B. I saw you raise
[54:23] Speaker 2: your hand. You got it in in time. I was
[54:25] Speaker 2: going to come back to the Black and Mild thing.
[54:27] Speaker 2: You can talk Black and Mild.
[54:28] Speaker 1: Yeah, go ahead. No, let me just talk about what
[54:29] Speaker 1: they did to him. What the Lakers did to him.
[54:32] Speaker 1: There were reports that Rob Pelican... Oh, you wasn't going
[54:33] Speaker 1: to talk about that. Oh, that's insane. What happened? You
[54:37] Speaker 1: seen that? That's insane. What happened? Talk about what the
[54:40] Speaker 1: Lakers did to Black and Mild, man.
[54:41] Speaker 2: I don't know if they're confirmed, but Rob Pelican was
[54:43] Speaker 2: calling around saying his knee was fucked up.
[54:46] Speaker 1: And then during... They team found out about it. Wow.
[54:52] Speaker 1: That's why they signed him. You got bad will, y'all.
[54:55] Speaker 1: You don't even want him, dog. You might as well
[54:56] Speaker 1: do this. Damn, y'all got the money. They ain't put
[54:59] Speaker 1: this in the Carfax. Here you go. Y'all don't even
[55:02] Speaker 1: want him, man. Just let him stay. He cool, man.
[55:05] Speaker 1: We're going to pay him less. We're going to pay
[55:06] Speaker 1: him less anyway. I wouldn't pay on that. Come on, man.
[55:08] Speaker 1: Don't do that to him. You can have him if
[55:13] Speaker 1: you want to. Come on, man. But, yeah, Dorian Finney Smith,
[55:27] Speaker 1: like I said, $ 453 million deal opted out of the
[55:30] Speaker 1: final year of his Lakers contract. I know Darren Fox. Hey, motherfucker.
[55:34] Speaker 1: Why is he on the market? Why y'all don't?
[55:36] Speaker 4: No, I remember Darren Fox came at me when I
[55:38] Speaker 4: said that's what they do. And I said he wasn't
[55:42] Speaker 4: going to get that all-NBA team.
[55:46] Speaker 1: No, it's not in their best interest. So I'm going
[55:49] Speaker 1: to pay whoever, say whatever, not to vote for you.
[55:52] Speaker 1: That's what they do. It's cold. Now they just got caught.
[55:57] Speaker 1: He just got called to see what they do behind
[55:59] Speaker 1: the scenes.
[56:01] Speaker 4: If I want to keep my product, I'm going to
[56:06] Speaker 4: say whatever I need for it to be given the
[56:09] Speaker 4: way I want it. Just like JJJ. I don't need
[56:14] Speaker 4: you making $ 350, 000. I want you at $ 250, 000. Listen, I'll
[56:16] Speaker 4: pay every reporter $ 500, 000, a million extra. Don't vote for him.
[56:26] Speaker 1: I don't need him to make that team. Isn't that collusion? Yeah. Well,
[56:29] Speaker 1: the NFL just got caught up. Wait, isn't that what?
[56:33] Speaker 1: With the Lamar Jackson situation. I mean, it's just hard
[56:35] Speaker 1: to prove collusion. Yeah. I've been in there. I've been there.
[56:39] Speaker 1: I've been there. You don't want him. I've been there.
[56:41] Speaker 6: Trying to figure out what the fuck are they saying
[56:43] Speaker 6: back there? I can't get no calls back. I don't
[56:46] Speaker 6: know what's going on. You keep giving me all these
[56:47] Speaker 6: fucking excuses and shit.
[56:51] Speaker 1: Just trying to figure out why I can't get no
[56:52] Speaker 1: fucking workouts. They done told everybody in the whole league,
[56:55] Speaker 1: don't answer no fucking calls.
[56:57] Speaker 2: Do you think the GMs are all on a group text?
[56:59] Speaker 2: And if so, who's the green bubble in it?
[57:02] Speaker 1: No, I didn't know. It's a group text, but nobody
[57:05] Speaker 1: got their names. Nobody knows whose numbers it is. It's
[57:09] Speaker 1: like the one the government uses. They just saying shit
[57:12] Speaker 1: about players. Just praying to say shit. Don't you touch
[57:14] Speaker 1: that motherfucker. I wouldn't touch that motherfucker with his long pole.
[57:17] Speaker 1: Free agent be looking at their phone. Ain't no call. Hey,
[57:19] Speaker 1: call my phone and see if it still works. Nothing.
[57:22] Speaker 1: It works. It works. I ain't getting nothing. No offers,
[57:27] Speaker 1: no nothing. You start seeing motherfuckers get signed, you're like, damn. Hey,
[57:33] Speaker 1: are they calling you? No? All right.
[57:37] Speaker 7: Mm-mm-mm.
[57:37] Speaker 1: Yeah. They be doing that, man. Our producer, I believe.
[57:41] Speaker 1: Nico Harrison is the green bubble. He the green bubble. Nico.
[57:45] Speaker 1: Nico the green bubble. What y'all doing?
[57:50] Speaker 2: But back to the Rockets. Like I said, a lot
[57:52] Speaker 2: of moves. KD, Black and Mobs, previously known as. Back
[57:56] Speaker 2: to Dorian.
[57:58] Speaker 1: Steven Adams. A. A.
[58:00] Speaker 2: Fred VanVleet. A. You're giving the Rockets A. A. A.
[58:06] Speaker 2: For their offseason move.
[58:07] Speaker 1: A plus. A plus. So what's their potential starting lineup
[58:11] Speaker 1: for us? Don't even matter. I don't either. KD, Black
[58:15] Speaker 1: and Mouth. Without their lineup, the same lineup they had
[58:18] Speaker 1: last year was number two. A. Thomas, KD. No, it was.
[58:23] Speaker 2: They took care of their coach. Thompson, Brooks, Phelan Green.
[58:27] Speaker 2: Now I'm talking about now, it's going to be A. Thompson, KD,
[58:30] Speaker 2: Van Vliet, the center, the little joker, and who's the powerful?
[58:36] Speaker 1: Jabari. Jabari. Yep. With Capella, Steven Adams on the bench.
[58:40] Speaker 1: Tari Eason, Cam Whitmore, so... Jay Sean Tate resigned. Dame
[58:44] Speaker 1: Lillard potentially. Tyree Eason.
[58:47] Speaker 7: You got the number on what he signed for?
[58:50] Speaker 1: Yeah, the number for what he signed for. I think
[58:53] Speaker 1: it was two for 50 or something like that, but
[58:54] Speaker 1: let me double check. Two for 50. Yeah, they added
[58:58] Speaker 1: about eight more million dollars to it and just spread
[59:02] Speaker 1: it on two years. So he had one year 40 left.
[59:06] Speaker 1: They should be the favorite. He had like 10 more million.
[59:08] Speaker 1: He had a 45 million dollar team option.
[59:11] Speaker 2: They gave him five more million to spread. The Rockets
[59:14] Speaker 2: had a team option for him for 45 million. They
[59:16] Speaker 2: declined the team option. Gave him two for 50.
[59:19] Speaker 1: We're going to decline this unless you're ready to talk.
[59:25] Speaker 1: So he took five more million to Extend that.
[59:27] Speaker 7: He could have got more than that somewhere else, though.
[59:31] Speaker 1: Two-year 50? I mean, in this economy? But why would
[59:36] Speaker 1: you leave? But why would you leave? I'm just saying.
[59:39] Speaker 3: But why would you leave? If you could get more
[59:42] Speaker 3: money somewhere else, but why would you leave? You already
[59:44] Speaker 3: got your championship ring. Possibly go get you another one.
[59:47] Speaker 1: Why would you leave? Best situation for him. Get your
[59:51] Speaker 1: ass right where you at.
[59:54] Speaker 2: So moving on to Mr. B, how would you grade
[59:55] Speaker 2: the Rockets' offseason moves thus far?
[59:58] Speaker 1: I'm going to go the same, A. A plus, A.
[1:00:02] Speaker 1: But you said A plus plus. Are you going A
[1:00:04] Speaker 1: or A plus? I'm going to go A. Okay. I
[1:00:07] Speaker 1: like the fact that we signed a coach, took care
[1:00:09] Speaker 1: of the coach.
[1:00:09] Speaker 5: They got KD, a guy that can get 27 a night,
[1:00:12] Speaker 5: and you still got your young pieces. So, you know,
[1:00:14] Speaker 5: if you're trying to compete for a championship and you're
[1:00:16] Speaker 5: trying to move forward, Having a guy like KD, a
[1:00:19] Speaker 5: guy that just likes to hoop, and a lot of
[1:00:21] Speaker 5: things that they can learn.
[1:00:22] Speaker 1: From him, I think is going to benefit them. Let's
[1:00:25] Speaker 1: shift over to you, Kenyon. How would you grade the Rockets'
[1:00:27] Speaker 1: offseason moves thus far? A-plus. A-plus. Damn. Okay. You locked
[1:00:32] Speaker 1: your coach up, who you believe in.
[1:00:34] Speaker 3: You was the second seed last year. You're looking up
[1:00:37] Speaker 3: at one team. They won it. You think you got
[1:00:41] Speaker 3: better with your roster. This is a lot better. Yeah,
[1:00:48] Speaker 3: that's another year of playing for him, another understanding, and
[1:00:51] Speaker 3: you add that plug-in play player, man, and it's a
[1:00:57] Speaker 3: recipe for success. So barring injury, everybody's healthy. Yeah, we
[1:01:04] Speaker 3: all know winning is a learned behavior. I think they
[1:01:07] Speaker 3: got a taste of it last year. Yeah, you bring
[1:01:11] Speaker 3: a winner in in KD. Dorian Finney-Smith helps. So you
[1:01:17] Speaker 3: replace what you lost in Dylan Brooks as far as
[1:01:20] Speaker 3: defense and.
[1:01:23] Speaker 2: Being able to guard multiple positions. So, no, yeah, it's, yeah.
[1:01:27] Speaker 2: Let's move over to Money Making Sonny. How would you
[1:01:31] Speaker 2: grade the Rockets' offseason moves? That swaggy walks past the camera.
[1:01:39] Speaker 1: It's okay. We are a live show. Y'all got to
[1:01:42] Speaker 1: do what y'all got to do. A with a triple.
[1:01:44] Speaker 1: A with a triple A. It makes them extremely dangerous now.
[1:01:49] Speaker 6: I mean, the thing that they did miss was a
[1:01:52] Speaker 6: guy who could slow the ball down, slow the game down,
[1:01:55] Speaker 6: crunch time, take good shots, be efficient with those shots.
[1:01:59] Speaker 6: They was missing that leadership as far as a vet
[1:02:01] Speaker 6: that can actually show them outside of Van Vliet that
[1:02:07] Speaker 6: execution is important. I think they were playing hero ball
[1:02:10] Speaker 6: at certain points where he may couldn't get them under control.
[1:02:13] Speaker 6: I think somebody like KD He's going to get respect
[1:02:17] Speaker 6: immediately just because of resume and legacy, but I think
[1:02:21] Speaker 6: his proven track record is consistency and his efficiency and
[1:02:25] Speaker 6: being able to know that in crunch time moments, give
[1:02:29] Speaker 6: me the ball, y'all don't have to worry about nothing.
[1:02:31] Speaker 6: I don't think they ever had those type of options.
[1:02:33] Speaker 6: That puts them kind of over the top. If you
[1:02:36] Speaker 6: really think about them being number two all year with
[1:02:38] Speaker 6: Jalen Green, him not knowing what to do in those positions,
[1:02:42] Speaker 6: KD's season vet, it's an opportunity for him to really
[1:02:46] Speaker 6: ride off in the sunset and try to get him
[1:02:48] Speaker 6: one with this type of team.
[1:02:50] Speaker 1: Maybe his best opportunities, obviously. Yeah, definitely. In his movement
[1:02:55] Speaker 1: from the Warriors.
[1:02:56] Speaker 3: What I'll say it does, it allows, because they're number
[1:02:58] Speaker 3: one options, Alpey Seville. They're going to play through him.
[1:03:01] Speaker 3: And with having KD out there, you can't double, right?
[1:03:05] Speaker 3: He gets to play one-on-one now. You put Thompson in
[1:03:08] Speaker 3: the dunker. Jabari's a spacer. I mean, he's a slash.
[1:03:13] Speaker 3: Thompson's a kid that's a slash. You put him in
[1:03:14] Speaker 3: the dunker at times.
[1:03:15] Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
[1:03:16] Speaker 3: But Sangoon gets to play one-on-one. Fred makes shots, Jabari
[1:03:20] Speaker 3: makes shots, KD makes shots, and you put Doreen Finney
[1:03:22] Speaker 3: makes shots, so you put people around that can make shots.
[1:03:27] Speaker 2: Houston dangerous. Swaggy, let's move on to you. How would
[1:03:31] Speaker 2: you grade the Rockets offseason?
[1:03:35] Speaker 7: I would say, you know, at first I wasn't fine
[1:03:38] Speaker 7: on this team, but now I give them an A +.
[1:03:40] Speaker 7: You know, I like the mentality of putting the ring
[1:03:44] Speaker 7: before the You know, taking the pay cut, Van Fleet
[1:03:48] Speaker 7: taking a pay cut just to try to win a championship.
[1:03:52] Speaker 1: Already has a ring. Wait a minute. Did he? Full circle.
[1:04:01] Speaker 2: He didn't really have an option in this. Don't do that, Vince.
[1:04:05] Speaker 1: Don't do that. There's nothing to do. No, he did not.
[1:04:08] Speaker 1: There's nothing to do. It was a team option. It
[1:04:10] Speaker 1: was a team option. Can I get a shot? The
[1:04:15] Speaker 1: team said you're not getting this bread. Hey, he said
[1:04:19] Speaker 1: full circle. No, no, no. He could have got more.
[1:04:24] Speaker 1: He took a pay cut? No, y'all reaching. Come on, man.
[1:04:28] Speaker 1: Don't do that, man. A forced pay cut, if you will.
[1:04:30] Speaker 3: Y'all reaching now. Your arms ain't that long.
[1:04:34] Speaker 1: Not a seven-foot wingspan. Neat them windbeats. It is. It is.
[1:04:42] Speaker 1: I got you. I got you. I got friends like this.
[1:04:45] Speaker 1: So what makes y'all think he took a pay cut? Nothing. Nothing.
[1:04:50] Speaker 1: I don't want to get into that. I'm just asking
[1:04:52] Speaker 1: because since y'all, since your man reached, I just want
[1:04:55] Speaker 1: to know what makes y'all think he took a pay cut.
[1:04:57] Speaker 3: There was some kiki. I just, real question. Because if
[1:05:01] Speaker 3: y'all think he took a pay cut. What was his
[1:05:02] Speaker 3: last contract?
[1:05:05] Speaker 2: I think it was like a three for one, 30, 140,
[1:05:07] Speaker 2: but team option in the final year.
[1:05:10] Speaker 1: Okay. So what was that team option? For 40? 45 minutes.
[1:05:14] Speaker 1: He only got five more minutes? For two more years.
[1:05:17] Speaker 1: The team option, not a player option. Team. So the
[1:05:21] Speaker 1: team could have decided what they wanted to do. You
[1:05:24] Speaker 1: don't think Kevin Durant's worth more? We're not talking about
[1:05:27] Speaker 1: Kevin Durant. How are you getting this conversation? We're talking
[1:05:31] Speaker 1: about Fred. We're talking about Fred Van Vliet. We're not
[1:05:34] Speaker 1: talking about Kevin Durant. So once again... No, we're not
[1:05:38] Speaker 1: talking about him. Once again, so y'all want to reach...
[1:05:41] Speaker 1: But you want 40-1? and be a free agent, or? No, it's... No,
[1:05:45] Speaker 1: let's say, what's the world? Basically, you're owed 40 million
[1:05:48] Speaker 1: that year. And I'm saying, as an owner, I don't
[1:05:53] Speaker 1: want you for $ 40 million. For 45. And I can say, okay,
[1:05:56] Speaker 1: I'll go be a free agent. Go be a free agent.
[1:05:58] Speaker 1: Now you got to go get a contract. Yes, and
[1:06:00] Speaker 1: I guarantee I can get one. $ 40 million for one year?
[1:06:02] Speaker 1: I can get more than that. You want to go
[1:06:04] Speaker 1: get 45? $ 40 million for one season? $ 40 million for
[1:06:06] Speaker 1: one season? $ 45 for one season? No, it is not. Yes.
[1:06:08] Speaker 1: That's what he makes? Yes. Listen, it was a team option. No,
[1:06:18] Speaker 1: he said it was a two-year deal. No, he had
[1:06:20] Speaker 1: a team option with the Rockets. If nothing happens, he
[1:06:22] Speaker 1: could have got 45. They threw it out. The Rockets
[1:06:25] Speaker 1: declined that team option. The Rockets declined that team option.
[1:06:27] Speaker 1: The team said, we don't want you for 45 million
[1:06:29] Speaker 1: for one year. And he could have been a free agent.
[1:06:30] Speaker 1: And he said they split that. So now he got
[1:06:32] Speaker 1: 50 for two years. Yes. So instead of making $ 45, 000,
[1:06:44] Speaker 1: he's making $ 25, 000.
[1:06:45] Speaker 4: So you guys are the team. So it's like $ 46, 000
[1:06:48] Speaker 4: to the team. He wasn't a free agent this year.
[1:06:49] Speaker 1: How much would he get if he was on the
[1:06:51] Speaker 1: market right now? He just got $ 25, 000. No. Three more
[1:06:59] Speaker 1: or less lost $ 20. He was on the market. He
[1:07:00] Speaker 1: lost $ 20 million? Nick, he was on the market. He
[1:07:01] Speaker 1: got $ 25. You think he would have got more than $ 45?
[1:07:03] Speaker 1: You thought he would have got one year for $ 45 million? $ 46.
[1:07:05] Speaker 1: He said more. He said more. Come on. So who's
[1:07:08] Speaker 1: going to pay? Who's going to ask? So he would
[1:07:10] Speaker 1: have got $ 48 million. $ 3 for $ 129. $ 46. Yeah. Who
[1:07:11] Speaker 1: has $ 48 million more than $ 45 and $ 46? No one
[1:07:12] Speaker 1: has $ 46 million to give Fred. Who out there has
[1:07:14] Speaker 1: $ 46 million? He could have got more than that. Who?
[1:07:16] Speaker 1: For sure. Where? Everywhere. Who? Where? Where? Everywhere would not
[1:07:29] Speaker 1: be an option. Who got money? For point guards. For
[1:07:32] Speaker 1: point guards? There's 29 other teams. Brooklyn Nets is the
[1:07:35] Speaker 1: only team that has money. Tell us who, Nick. Brooklyn Nets?
[1:07:37] Speaker 1: Who just got paid? Miles Turner's got what? $ 107, 000? $ 107, 000.
[1:07:39] Speaker 1: They had to cut. So he couldn't go there? They
[1:07:41] Speaker 1: had to cut Dame. What did Minnesota just do? Who?
[1:07:44] Speaker 1: Minnesota need a point guard? They signed their own players.
[1:07:46] Speaker 1: They can't afford it. Three for $ 100, 000 for Julie Brando
[1:07:47] Speaker 1: and five for $ 125, 000 for him.
[1:07:52] Speaker 4: If he thought he had the money after he went,
[1:07:54] Speaker 4: but there's nobody who has that type of money for
[1:07:58] Speaker 4: him in a free agency.
[1:08:03] Speaker 1: Miami? You've got to think about if he went into
[1:08:05] Speaker 1: the market. Did the team deny the option? The team
[1:08:10] Speaker 1: declined his option.
[1:08:12] Speaker 2: You can go be a free agent or you can
[1:08:13] Speaker 2: take this two for 50, stay in Houston, keep all
[1:08:15] Speaker 2: your stuff.
[1:08:15] Speaker 1: Good luck out there in Oklahoma. I mean he took
[1:08:19] Speaker 1: the two So he.
[1:08:21] Speaker 3: Know cuz the market fucked up right now. Yeah, so
[1:08:24] Speaker 3: this year this year is a little off this year's
[1:08:26] Speaker 3: off next year This never started right now But what
[1:08:30] Speaker 3: they are.
[1:08:30] Speaker 1: Fine this Point guard this point number two. I'm like,
[1:08:35] Speaker 1: what was his numbers? It was a smart. It was
[1:08:37] Speaker 1: a smart move for him. Nobody point guard Before he
[1:08:40] Speaker 1: wouldn't have got 46 million dollars. Nobody point guard Garland
[1:08:43] Speaker 1: is 39 So if they pick up that option, what happens?
[1:08:47] Speaker 2: Van Fleet averaged 14 and six assists and four rebounds.
[1:08:50] Speaker 1: But do they trade him? Do they move him? Who's
[1:08:52] Speaker 1: going to trade for 45 million friends? With a multi-team,
[1:08:55] Speaker 1: you can move people. You can move people. They can't
[1:08:57] Speaker 1: sign Jabari. They can't go sign Klinkapella. They couldn't have
[1:09:01] Speaker 1: signed this group just now. They couldn't have signed none
[1:09:03] Speaker 1: of them. They couldn't have signed Black and Mild. They
[1:09:05] Speaker 1: couldn't have got none of them.
[1:09:08] Speaker 3: But nobody's taking that 45 million. That's what y'all missing here.
[1:09:12] Speaker 1: If they sign him, they don't hit these people. That's
[1:09:14] Speaker 1: why it was a team option, bro. If he would
[1:09:16] Speaker 1: have stayed in wherever he's at. That's why it was
[1:09:19] Speaker 1: a team option in the last. It wasn't a playoff.
[1:09:21] Speaker 1: He didn't have nothing on the market.
[1:09:24] Speaker 4: You're missing $ 45 million.
[1:09:26] Speaker 1: Think about it. Think about it. Think about it. Think
[1:09:29] Speaker 1: about it. I got to pay you $ 45 just out
[1:09:32] Speaker 1: of KD. That means I can't sign the three people
[1:09:36] Speaker 1: they just signed. I needed him to take. That's a
[1:09:38] Speaker 1: lot of money. That's a whole lot. So I'm saying
[1:09:41] Speaker 1: I'm not going to give you this money. Get the 2.6.
[1:09:44] Speaker 1: It's a team though. Because then he'll have to play
[1:09:47] Speaker 1: out that one year. No, no. This year's not giving
[1:09:49] Speaker 1: it to you. Walk. Because it's business-wise. It's a LeBron season. Walk. No. Walk. No.
[1:09:55] Speaker 1: I get 46 million. You can't separate the two. If
[1:09:58] Speaker 1: you still want to be the point guard here, how
[1:10:00] Speaker 1: much are you going to take? I'm forcing you to
[1:10:02] Speaker 1: do it. Van Fleet averaged 14 and 6 last season.
[1:10:05] Speaker 1: He averaged what? 14 and 6, sis. 14 and 6
[1:10:08] Speaker 1: for $ 45 million? Nobody won't win Van Fleet. That's dope
[1:10:11] Speaker 1: dog food. For 46 million. Nobody won't win Van Fleet. Huh?
[1:10:14] Speaker 1: Nobody won't win Van Fleet. Nobody's saying that for 46 million.
[1:10:17] Speaker 1: I'm saying. Don't you listen to all 45 million dollars, dog.
[1:10:22] Speaker 1: Signing trades. They didn't want him for 40. Obviously, they
[1:10:24] Speaker 1: didn't want him for 46. But they signed him for it.
[1:10:27] Speaker 1: Back then. I needed him.
[1:10:28] Speaker 2: Back then. But it had the team option on it.
[1:10:32] Speaker 2: He signed that three-year deal with the Rockets 2023.
[1:10:33] Speaker 1: How many times did he get 40? So, I forget
[1:10:36] Speaker 1: what the number breakdown, but he got two seasons of
[1:10:38] Speaker 1: that bread. 40. Yeah. And then the team. I had
[1:10:41] Speaker 1: all the money two years ago. If I signed him,
[1:10:44] Speaker 1: I signed Dylan Brooks. That was... So, you really kind
[1:10:48] Speaker 1: of owe me 46. No, you don't owe me shit.
[1:10:52] Speaker 1: I gave it to you.
[1:10:52] Speaker 2: We gave you 50 for two. You gave me, yeah.
[1:10:54] Speaker 2: You gave me your 46. This is four more million
[1:10:57] Speaker 2: for next year. Remember, this is when, was it two
[1:11:00] Speaker 2: years ago when we signed.
[1:11:03] Speaker 1: What was his name? Three Letter. We ain't seen him
[1:11:07] Speaker 1: since he left Miami. That name. Gabe. Yeah. That's that
[1:11:12] Speaker 1: summer when Gabe just got money. We... But no, time out, Gil.
[1:11:16] Speaker 2: Because you said Gabe three letters, but you were thinking
[1:11:19] Speaker 2: Sam as the name you called him previously until you
[1:11:22] Speaker 2: learned his name.
[1:11:23] Speaker 1: Gabe. Oh, Gabe. It was that, it was that, it
[1:11:26] Speaker 1: was that, it was that something. I was just like, whoo,
[1:11:30] Speaker 1: getting money. Gabe Benson. Man, we could have got Fred.
[1:11:34] Speaker 2: Shoulda, woulda, shoulda. That's why you never gave me a
[1:11:37] Speaker 2: grade for the Rockets offseason. You gave me A +.
[1:11:40] Speaker 1: What? A +. Okay. There was a lot going on
[1:11:43] Speaker 1: before that. Yeah, favorites.
[1:11:45] Speaker 2: So the first time in the couch history that you
[1:11:47] Speaker 2: all unanimously agree, Rockets got an A or higher on
[1:11:49] Speaker 2: their off-season moves. I think they will be a dominant
[1:11:53] Speaker 2: force in the Western Conference, potentially competing with the Thunder.
[1:11:57] Speaker 1: To go with the finals.
[1:11:57] Speaker 2: Well, let's talk about the Rockets, one of their newest additions.
[1:12:01] Speaker 2: So LeBron released a new episode of his Mind the
[1:12:04] Speaker 2: Game podcast today, and the special guest was Kevin Durant.
[1:12:07] Speaker 2: LeBron took the time to give KD his proper flowers
[1:12:10] Speaker 2: in front of the world.
[1:12:11] Speaker 1: Let's take a listen. He has it. I don't want
[1:12:14] Speaker 1: to speak like you're not here, but you're so great.
[1:12:17] Speaker 1: I'd like to do it sometime. Thank you, brother. Appreciate it.
[1:12:19] Speaker 1: He hasn't shot under 30% since like 2012.
[1:12:23] Speaker 12: And in a league that doesn't talk about efficiency enough,
[1:12:28] Speaker 12: because I'm one of those efficiency guys, like I hate
[1:12:31] Speaker 12: going out there just chucking up shots or, you know,
[1:12:33] Speaker 12: looking at the box score and I was maybe eight
[1:12:36] Speaker 12: for 23 or nine for 25 or six for 18.
[1:12:41] Speaker 12: Like you're going to have those nights for sure. You know,
[1:12:44] Speaker 12: but for the majority of the season, like being efficient,
[1:12:47] Speaker 12: you know, it's something I've always prided myself on.
[1:12:50] Speaker 1: And this guy is when it comes to.
[1:12:54] Speaker 12: Three-level score, three-pointers, mid-range, below the Gary Payton area, below
[1:13:01] Speaker 12: the Malone area, and finishing. We haven't had a score
[1:13:06] Speaker 12: as equipped as KD in our league.
[1:13:09] Speaker 1: I appreciate that. What the fuck? This is Gil's Arena
[1:13:17] Speaker 1: presented by 100 Dog. We do what we want to
[1:13:19] Speaker 1: do here. Never heard of it, Steve.
[1:13:22] Speaker 2: So we're all in our 30s and 40s, but would
[1:13:24] Speaker 2: you guys consider this, first off, glazing on LeBron's part?
[1:13:26] Speaker 2: Was LeBron glazing KD in that clip?
[1:13:30] Speaker 1: Nah, just give somebody flowers. Speaking of facts. It's important.
[1:13:34] Speaker 1: It's showing love. So what is he supposed to do
[1:13:39] Speaker 1: to this guest? What does glaze mean? So what is
[1:13:42] Speaker 1: he supposed to do to this guest? Glaze, giving someone
[1:13:43] Speaker 1: too much respect for what they do. So just liking
[1:13:47] Speaker 1: your favorite players glaze or just like, well, it's really
[1:13:50] Speaker 1: a LeBron derogatory term.
[1:13:51] Speaker 11: Just like people just being too positive.
[1:13:54] Speaker 1: Like you're too positive. Like LeBron supporters are known as Glacier.
[1:13:57] Speaker 1: So what is your Jordan fan? Hey, Glacier.
[1:14:03] Speaker 2: Technically Glacier's too, Gil, but only LeBron fans get that.
[1:14:06] Speaker 1: Glacier. Okay, so Allen Iverson fans get a tattoo. A.I. Glacier. Oh, okay. Yeah.
[1:14:11] Speaker 1: But not referred to that. Only a negative derogatory term
[1:14:13] Speaker 1: for LeBron.
[1:14:14] Speaker 3: But what is he supposed to say about his guests?
[1:14:16] Speaker 3: He has a guest on his show. What is he
[1:14:17] Speaker 3: supposed to come on that motherfucker and say?
[1:14:19] Speaker 1: You terrible. This motherfucker ain't shit. This motherfucker, listen. He
[1:14:23] Speaker 1: ain't better than me. What the fuck is he supposed
[1:14:27] Speaker 1: to say? I beat him in the finals. Okay, shit.
[1:14:30] Speaker 1: We came back 3-1 on these motherfuckers. That ain't shit.
[1:14:33] Speaker 1: They had to call you. Come on, man. Go rescue
[1:14:37] Speaker 1: these motherfuckers, man. That would have been nice just to
[1:14:40] Speaker 1: put that on tape. No. It would have been a fact. Yeah,
[1:14:43] Speaker 1: I'm efficient. It would have been factually correct. You know
[1:14:46] Speaker 1: what I'm saying?
[1:14:48] Speaker 2: But in all sincerity, what's it like to hear LeBron
[1:14:50] Speaker 2: give KD flowers while both are still in the league
[1:14:52] Speaker 2: balling the latter stages of their career? The nose fell off.
[1:15:05] Speaker 2: For some reason, I just got the urge to get
[1:15:06] Speaker 2: a jumbo jacket.
[1:15:07] Speaker 1: I got my jacket in the box. I got my
[1:15:10] Speaker 1: jacket in the box.
[1:15:12] Speaker 3: No, LeBron constantly does it while he's been doing it
[1:15:15] Speaker 3: throughout his, giving his peers their respect and flowers, so
[1:15:20] Speaker 3: nothing different.
[1:15:22] Speaker 1: No, I love it.
[1:15:23] Speaker 5: I mean, they've been, you know, they've been through a
[1:15:25] Speaker 5: lot of battles, you know. You know, they played in
[1:15:29] Speaker 5: how many finals together? Maybe three against each other. Well, Well,
[1:15:34] Speaker 5: one actually, and then... So, I mean, I love it, man.
[1:15:38] Speaker 2: I mean, every time they played against each other, they
[1:15:39] Speaker 2: put on a show for us.
[1:15:42] Speaker 5: You know, you're talking about two of the greatest athletes
[1:15:43] Speaker 5: to ever play in the NBA. So, you know, it's
[1:15:46] Speaker 5: good to see them sit down and just have talk.
[1:15:48] Speaker 1: Have a hoop talk. Yeah, fuck all that. Cool. This.
[1:15:58] Speaker 3: Steve, what was the question you asked, Steve? Answer this, Gil.
[1:16:03] Speaker 1: I didn't play basketball like you guys. He said the
[1:16:06] Speaker 1: Gary Payton area and the Karl Malone area. What are
[1:16:09] Speaker 1: those areas? What are those areas? I assume... Mid-post, around
[1:16:12] Speaker 1: the 17, 18 foot. Is that what it is? Old school, 90s,
[1:16:14] Speaker 1: 80s area. So why didn't I just say that? I mean,
[1:16:20] Speaker 1: if you... Like, that's a... Like, don't... Like, you just
[1:16:23] Speaker 1: trying to... You know why? You motherfuckers that much smarter
[1:16:25] Speaker 1: than everybody. We get it, dude. God. Look, but... Because
[1:16:29] Speaker 1: they didn't want to... Mind the game, pocket. Mind the game, man.
[1:16:31] Speaker 1: They're minding the game. Because they didn't want to... Because they...
[1:16:34] Speaker 1: Them probably didn't want to say the Jordan... But he
[1:16:37] Speaker 1: taking it... Or Kobe... So, this is the thing, right? So,
[1:16:41] Speaker 1: hold on. So, you're so... Who's watching these podcasts, right?
[1:16:47] Speaker 1: Just the mid-range. Like, who's watching these shows? People are
[1:16:51] Speaker 1: trying to learn about the game being minded. Fans. You're talking... So,
[1:16:55] Speaker 1: you need to... As we do constantly, you're talking layman terms, right?
[1:17:00] Speaker 1: You got to break it down to... Like, you got
[1:17:04] Speaker 1: people that just... They a fan of LeBron. They don't
[1:17:06] Speaker 1: know basketball terminology. You know, the Gary Payton era, the
[1:17:09] Speaker 1: Carl Malone era. Like, no, just say the mid-range. Like,
[1:17:13] Speaker 1: you can say that, but Slad, like... Normally on the show,
[1:17:17] Speaker 1: they'll put up little pop-up boxes. But they haven't, so...
[1:17:19] Speaker 1: But that was just a social clip, so... Yeah, he's
[1:17:22] Speaker 1: probably just... Yeah, he's talking to us. That's the block,
[1:17:25] Speaker 1: ain't it? He's talking to us. Ain't that the block?
[1:17:27] Speaker 1: Because he said mid-range. Three mid-range. Now I understand. Carmelo
[1:17:35] Speaker 1: playing two areas on the floor.
[1:17:37] Speaker 4: This one is more post-up to mid-range versus Jordan and Kobe.
[1:17:41] Speaker 1: Three to mid-range. Carmelo played in the elbow to the post.
[1:17:45] Speaker 1: The post to elbow. Kick and roll to pop. It's
[1:17:49] Speaker 1: that area. I know what the fuck he's saying. He's
[1:17:51] Speaker 1: talking to us. Isn't that the mellow area? No. No.
[1:17:58] Speaker 1: Is it the Paul Pierce era? One of them. What
[1:18:03] Speaker 1: about the T-Mac? Is it the T-Mac era? No. Jamal Mashburn?
[1:18:09] Speaker 7: You could have said it.
[1:18:14] Speaker 1: But it's a big dog. Big dog? Kind of. So
[1:18:19] Speaker 1: Carl played in both of those areas. We get it.
[1:18:22] Speaker 3: Gary Payton was a post-up player. Gary Payton used to
[1:18:24] Speaker 3: back people down, and that's the post-up.
[1:18:26] Speaker 1: Yeah, I know.
[1:18:26] Speaker 3: Carl Malone played in the post because he was a
[1:18:29] Speaker 3: fucking power forward back then.
[1:18:31] Speaker 1: They ran post-ups.
[1:18:32] Speaker 3: Gary Payton used to back people down if he had
[1:18:34] Speaker 3: a smaller guard on him or a guard who he
[1:18:36] Speaker 3: thought he had an advantage on.
[1:18:38] Speaker 1: He like Andre Miller. Dre going to try to back
[1:18:43] Speaker 1: the seven. He's going to give a fuck. He's going
[1:18:46] Speaker 1: to motherfucking hit your ass. It would have been easier
[1:18:49] Speaker 1: if he had said Hakeem, Elijah Warren. All right. A
[1:18:53] Speaker 1: little out of sync there. Tim Duncan. Tim Duncan. That's
[1:18:57] Speaker 1: the poster. Kevin Garnett. Yeah, it's a lot of people.
[1:19:00] Speaker 1: But what I'm saying is.
[1:19:04] Speaker 1: So you want to break it down to the fans
[1:19:06] Speaker 1: that watch the game. Like to Josiah's point, when he
[1:19:10] Speaker 1: would give one of his LeBron terms, they would put
[1:19:13] Speaker 1: it up underneath the definition that they were. Yeah, that's good.
[1:19:17] Speaker 1: I was about to say, that'd be good for people
[1:19:18] Speaker 1: to look up. Yeah, because I think on the actual show,
[1:19:20] Speaker 1: they still do that. Oh, they still do it? Look
[1:19:22] Speaker 1: up where? Oh, this is somebody else. It's a social clip. Oh,
[1:19:24] Speaker 1: this is a social clip. This is just a social
[1:19:26] Speaker 1: breakout clip.
[1:19:26] Speaker 3: They can't look the Karl Malone area up and Gary
[1:19:28] Speaker 3: Payton up on the floor.
[1:19:30] Speaker 1: I don't think he said area. Area. Area. Yeah, that's
[1:19:34] Speaker 1: what I said. Area on the floor. That's what I said.
[1:19:37] Speaker 1: Area on the floor, Nick. I thought you said Liverpool. Era.
[1:19:41] Speaker 3: Area on the floor, Nick, where they play basketball, where
[1:19:45] Speaker 3: they like to receive the ball in order to try
[1:19:47] Speaker 3: to put it through the orange thing.
[1:19:49] Speaker 7: But it's LeBron. It don't be LeBron. What's wrong with
[1:19:53] Speaker 7: saying that type of stuff?
[1:19:55] Speaker 3: Because you got to land, you got fans that watch
[1:19:57] Speaker 3: and don't understand those terms is what I'm saying, Nick.
[1:20:01] Speaker 1: We don't understand. It's a lot of players playing that area, LeBron. Like, goddamn.
[1:20:10] Speaker 3: But those are the players that he chose the name, yes.
[1:20:12] Speaker 3: But I'm just saying, say what, it's the mid-range, the
[1:20:15] Speaker 3: post area. These guys played in those areas, like for
[1:20:18] Speaker 3: the layman's, I'm talking about for the people that don't.
[1:20:20] Speaker 3: Below the free throw line. Because he's speaking to us.
[1:20:23] Speaker 3: I know he's having a conversation with Steve Nash, but
[1:20:27] Speaker 3: the fans, the people that's watching it, Be like, what.
[1:20:31] Speaker 1: The fuck is he? Like, what does that mean? You
[1:20:33] Speaker 1: got to remember, too, right?
[1:20:36] Speaker 4: But most of the conversations he has is with players. So,
[1:20:41] Speaker 4: you know, he's just getting the media to learn how
[1:20:43] Speaker 4: to transfer our locker room talk to them. But they're
[1:20:46] Speaker 4: not going to use that ever. Yeah, I mean, it's
[1:20:49] Speaker 4: going to take him a minute. He's going to have
[1:20:50] Speaker 4: to keep saying it. Keep going it, keep going it.
[1:20:52] Speaker 4: He's going to have to keep saying it, but it's
[1:20:54] Speaker 4: the conversation.
[1:20:55] Speaker 1: Who does it now in this era? I mean, this year,
[1:20:57] Speaker 1: like this year, who could he have said it? The
[1:21:01] Speaker 1: LeBron area? No, he don't post to LeBron. Don't post to...
[1:21:05] Speaker 1: They shoot the little fadeaway. Yeah, why didn't he just
[1:21:07] Speaker 1: call it the LeBron area? He just said the... The cola.
[1:21:10] Speaker 1: My area. Yeah, that's my area. That's all I'm about
[1:21:14] Speaker 1: to say. Who post up now? Who post up now? Brunson.
[1:21:16] Speaker 1: I mean, Brunson, Shea. Drew Holiday. Drew Holiday. below the
[1:21:22] Speaker 1: free throw line. That's all I'm saying. We understood it.
[1:21:27] Speaker 3: I've never heard those terminologies.
[1:21:29] Speaker 1: That's what Steve said. I've never heard nobody reference it
[1:21:32] Speaker 1: as those players. That was my first time here, so
[1:21:36] Speaker 1: I thought that.
[1:21:37] Speaker 7: Was something you guys all knew.
[1:21:41] Speaker 1: No, he made that shit up in real time as
[1:21:43] Speaker 1: he was talking. I thought it was a level of
[1:21:45] Speaker 1: game that I have never minded. You see how I
[1:21:48] Speaker 1: was behind when I did that? I couldn't come up
[1:21:50] Speaker 1: with nobody that post-upped it. I got a question before
[1:21:53] Speaker 1: we move on. Is it obvious? Okay. That's one to know.
[1:21:58] Speaker 1: That's one to know.
[1:22:01] Speaker 2: But respect LeBron for taking the time to bring KD on,
[1:22:03] Speaker 2: give him his love, give him his flowers while both
[1:22:05] Speaker 2: are still in the league. It is an important part
[1:22:07] Speaker 2: of the game.
[1:22:09] Speaker 1: Yeah.
[1:22:11] Speaker 9: Usually all greats acknowledge their counterparts. When have they not?
[1:22:22] Speaker 1: Was there ever a time somebody gave you your love
[1:22:24] Speaker 1: or gave you your flowers that you really appreciated? You
[1:22:27] Speaker 1: were great. Don't do that.
[1:22:28] Speaker 2: Oh, LeBron and Steve Nash gave you some love.
[1:22:32] Speaker 1: Can you stick with what I say? The greats, man.
[1:22:35] Speaker 1: When Magic and Bird and they used to give each
[1:22:37] Speaker 1: other their flowers, stick to them. That's what I'm talking about.
[1:22:43] Speaker 1: The greats. The top tier. When you're on a certain level,
[1:22:47] Speaker 1: they respect because they understand the work ethic. and the
[1:22:51] Speaker 1: sacrifice it takes to get to that level. And since
[1:22:53] Speaker 1: they're on that level, they usually always give each other
[1:22:57] Speaker 1: their respect.
[1:22:58] Speaker 2: My question for you guys, imagine giving everybody, you know
[1:23:01] Speaker 2: what I mean? Has one of the greats ever complimented
[1:23:04] Speaker 2: your game specifically that made you say, all right. brought
[1:23:07] Speaker 2: a flutter to your heart, a smile to your face, bro.
[1:23:09] Speaker 1: You remember when Magic, you know, when Magic, when the USA,
[1:23:12] Speaker 1: the joint used to come down. And I was like,
[1:23:15] Speaker 1: we're going to give you a call. We're going to
[1:23:18] Speaker 1: give you a call. We're going to give you a call.
[1:23:22] Speaker 1: Get him back. You better get him back. So you
[1:23:25] Speaker 1: said what? You said what, great? I mean, I'm just saying.
[1:23:31] Speaker 1: Going in and out, but it's like, hey! Come on, man.
[1:23:35] Speaker 1: Don't act like y'all didn't love that shit. They're like, yeah, man.
[1:23:38] Speaker 1: Y'all love some magic. You better get him back. Get
[1:23:42] Speaker 1: him back. Get him back. A great that comes with
[1:23:45] Speaker 1: the game.
[1:23:45] Speaker 2: Yeah, but is there anybody you've considered one of the greats,
[1:23:47] Speaker 2: somebody you've looked up to, respected in the game, showing
[1:23:49] Speaker 2: you some love that you really appreciated?
[1:23:51] Speaker 1: Yeah. Shaq, Dwyane Wade. Okay. Steve Nash. Hmm. God is good.
[1:24:06] Speaker 1: You guys don't like compliments, I see. Mark Gurney. Yeah,
[1:24:09] Speaker 1: I like compliments. Hanging with Mr. Cooper said I was
[1:24:11] Speaker 1: all right. He said you were all right. Was that
[1:24:13] Speaker 1: during his stand with the Warriors? Nope. He said hanging
[1:24:16] Speaker 1: with Mr. Cooper. Yeah, hanging with Mr. Cooper.
[1:24:19] Speaker 13: He got a tent date for the Warriors. Wait, Tommy Shepard, too. Leon,
[1:24:22] Speaker 13: he told me I was good, too. He said, keep
[1:24:25] Speaker 13: shooting that thing. Tommy Shepard ran the same play. They
[1:24:28] Speaker 13: shot the same downstream. The Panthers raised where we were.
[1:24:31] Speaker 1: The little motivation speech Gil used to give me.
[1:24:33] Speaker 5: Thomas Shepard came back down from 30.
[1:24:36] Speaker 1: Tom Shepard. Is that Thomas Shepard who passed it to
[1:24:43] Speaker 1: himself and got that dunk? No, that was number 57.
[1:24:45] Speaker 1: That was number 57. The light has it to himself.
[1:24:49] Speaker 7: The glass can guard was hooping on there with the
[1:24:52] Speaker 7: red jersey.
[1:24:53] Speaker 1: God bless.
[1:24:54] Speaker 2: Well, let's keep this thing moving. Today's podcast is sponsored

[1:25:47] Speaker 2: move on, we got to clarify. It was number 52,
[1:25:50] Speaker 2: not number 57.
[1:25:50] Speaker 1: I'm trying to change your ad, too, about that shit.
[1:25:55] Speaker 1: Your Roe Sparks ad. Every time I'm... On Snapchat and shit.
[1:25:59] Speaker 1: You don't enjoy it? Hell no. Swag, you give it
[1:26:04] Speaker 1: a heart every time you see it.
[1:26:06] Speaker 7: I'm like, tired of seeing this shit.
[1:26:07] Speaker 1: I ain't got nothing. So we talked about LeBron. I'm
[1:26:10] Speaker 1: tired of looking at her every day. We talked about...
[1:26:14] Speaker 1: You and Rose Fox. You and Rose Fox. I don't
[1:26:18] Speaker 1: be getting in trouble. Oh my God, I get in trouble.
[1:26:22] Speaker 1: So we talked....
[1:26:25] Speaker 2: Talked about LeBron and KD. Now let's talk a little
[1:26:27] Speaker 2: bit about LeBron's team. We got to talk a little
[1:26:29] Speaker 2: bit about the Lakers. They are America's team as well.
[1:26:32] Speaker 2: So they lost Black and Mild, Dorian Finney-Smith to the Rockets,
[1:26:34] Speaker 2: but signed for Jake LaRavia to a two-year, $ 12 million deal.
[1:26:39] Speaker 2: According to a report from the Athletics' Dan Wojcicki, LaRavia
[1:26:42] Speaker 2: was the first player Rob Palenka called when free agency
[1:26:45] Speaker 2: opened Monday. with Palenka and J.J. Redick selling him on
[1:26:48] Speaker 2: the Lakers brand and giving him a detailed vision of
[1:26:52] Speaker 2: how the Lakers plan to utilize him. The first call,
[1:26:54] Speaker 2: 3 p.m. hit, we got to call Jake LaRabia. Gil,
[1:26:59] Speaker 2: you had a great reaction to this signing on social media,
[1:27:01] Speaker 2: so let's take a look at that.
[1:27:02] Speaker 1: Hey, Smoke.
[1:27:03] Speaker 14: Never in my life have I ever seen a bench
[1:27:07] Speaker 14: player be signed so fast during free agency. So this
[1:27:12] Speaker 14: is what we're doing now, Lakers. Signing Jake from Allstate.
[1:27:19] Speaker 14: The nerve of this post saying breaking news. Breaking news
[1:27:23] Speaker 14: is if we sign Kaminga. That's breaking news. If we
[1:27:28] Speaker 14: sign Aiton, who just hit the market, breaking news. If
[1:27:33] Speaker 14: we stole Miles Turner from Indiana, breaking news.
[1:27:38] Speaker 1: Right here? Nigga who averaged six points last year? That
[1:27:42] Speaker 1: ain't breaking news. You a damn fool. Huh? We could
[1:27:48] Speaker 1: have got him the last, right before training camp. You
[1:27:50] Speaker 1: could have had him try out. Huh? He averaged six points.
[1:27:53] Speaker 4: You could have had him try the fuck out to
[1:27:55] Speaker 4: see if he could make the team.
[1:27:56] Speaker 1: You could have put the nigga with Bronny. Put him
[1:27:57] Speaker 1: in summer league with Bronny. Shit. He probably won't make that.
[1:28:00] Speaker 1: God damn it.
[1:28:02] Speaker 2: So Gil, visibly frustrated. Again, 3 p.m. yesterday Pacific. Free
[1:28:07] Speaker 2: agency opened up. Get Jake LaRavia on the phone, please.
[1:28:12] Speaker 1: First call. Yeah, Laker, man. Feedback. Hey, let's get some smoke, though.
[1:28:17] Speaker 1: Let's get some smoke for him. Laker smoke. Yeah, Laker smoke.
[1:28:22] Speaker 1: We still got to sign it. Laker still got to
[1:28:24] Speaker 1: sign it. You be breaking our corners down, bro. Shit.
[1:28:28] Speaker 2: Jake LaRavia. You called him Jake from Allstate, Gil, just
[1:28:32] Speaker 2: as a reminder in that video.
[1:28:34] Speaker 1: I remember a time. I remember a time when. just
[1:28:42] Speaker 1: the names, just, you know, just everybody piggybacking off each other.
[1:28:49] Speaker 1: And then later on, August, when nobody really cares, you know,
[1:28:53] Speaker 1: you're like, oh, hey, man, y'all just signed a little dude.
[1:28:56] Speaker 1: You know him? Like, I don't know him. Like, yeah,
[1:28:59] Speaker 1: they said, yeah, that's... No, you didn't. What? No, you didn't.
[1:29:04] Speaker 1: Right before training camp. No, I haven't been right there.
[1:29:06] Speaker 1: That's never in my life. The corners is always in
[1:29:09] Speaker 1: my life. No, never. The end of the week. Not
[1:29:13] Speaker 1: the first. Not the first day. The first call. The
[1:29:16] Speaker 1: end of the week is for the corner. Yeah, the
[1:29:17] Speaker 1: first three days and stuff for the stars. Like, this
[1:29:21] Speaker 1: is 1950. Just like, just the whole fall. White-only. White-only
[1:29:24] Speaker 1: call members. Boom, boom, boom. Hey, how you doing? We just,
[1:29:28] Speaker 1: we see your ad in the paper. They're going white.
[1:29:30] Speaker 1: God damn. They're going back to 1960. They didn't even
[1:29:32] Speaker 1: have that back then. It wasn't even that dumb. That day. Okay, well.
[1:29:42] Speaker 1: The Lakers has never had this many on one team.
[1:29:44] Speaker 1: Not to play. We already have two players. You already
[1:29:48] Speaker 1: had Trace Latham. Three. I forgot. No. You already had
[1:29:53] Speaker 1: Trace Latham. You can't play all three of them. That's
[1:29:55] Speaker 1: no defense. The Glory Road. The Glory Road. Jerry West
[1:30:01] Speaker 1: is looking up like, what is going on here?
[1:30:04] Speaker 4: I didn't have that many whites on my team.
[1:30:07] Speaker 1: Glory, glory. That's a new owner. A new owner did that.
[1:30:11] Speaker 1: He must be cousins with the owner. I know Jerry
[1:30:14] Speaker 1: West is sitting there like, what in the Boston is
[1:30:20] Speaker 1: going on here? There was a reason Boston fell off
[1:30:23] Speaker 1: from us. All these years, they ain't won a championship
[1:30:27] Speaker 1: since they won. All right, well, okay. Congrats, Jake.
[1:30:31] Speaker 4: To be honest, I really, it kind of confused me
[1:30:35] Speaker 4: because when you look at it real fast, you kind
[1:30:37] Speaker 4: of think it was, I thought it was Austin Reeves,
[1:30:40] Speaker 4: just like the college version of it.
[1:30:42] Speaker 1: I was like, oh, shit, Austin, son. What the fuck
[1:30:45] Speaker 1: is this?
[1:30:46] Speaker 2: Okay, well, in other news, the Lakers are looking for
[1:30:49] Speaker 2: a starting center in free agency. The options are dwindling.
[1:30:52] Speaker 1: Oh, really? Really? Brooke Lopez went to the Clippers. Oh, really? Maybe.
[1:30:56] Speaker 1: Maybe if they was on the phone with Brooke Lopez first. First. First.
[1:31:06] Speaker 1: And then Jake, like, I'm pretty sure Jake will be
[1:31:11] Speaker 1: sitting there now. Or they could have been doing what
[1:31:14] Speaker 1: New York was doing. calling around and checking. Your sinner available?
[1:31:22] Speaker 1: You going to keep your sinner? Hey, what's your sinner
[1:31:25] Speaker 1: over there doing?
[1:31:26] Speaker 6: Your sinner need some Starbucks or something?
[1:31:29] Speaker 1: What's your sinner need over there?
[1:31:32] Speaker 2: Brooke Lopez went to Clippers to your $ 18 million.
[1:31:36] Speaker 1: It's like buying shoelaces before you buy the shoes. Like, yeah,
[1:31:39] Speaker 1: I want the MJs over there. Everybody in line. You
[1:31:41] Speaker 1: go buy your laces first. Shit, it's going to be
[1:31:45] Speaker 1: some cold ass... They got a good agent. You all right?
[1:31:51] Speaker 1: You got time, Gil? In a bit of good news, Gil.
[1:31:54] Speaker 1: In a bit of good news. There's no good news
[1:31:56] Speaker 1: unless we find that other one, man.
[1:31:59] Speaker 2: The Bahamian. DeAndre Ayton is still available after being bought
[1:32:03] Speaker 2: out by the Trailblazers. We still got the mid-level, right?
[1:32:05] Speaker 2: 39-year-old Al Horford is still available as well if that
[1:32:07] Speaker 2: does anything for you.
[1:32:08] Speaker 1: Al Horford. 39. Man, listen. I know black. Listen, listen, listen.
[1:32:16] Speaker 1: If we sign.
[1:32:17] Speaker 4: Al motherfucking Horford, brother.
[1:32:20] Speaker 1: You ain't going to do that. If we wasn't athletic
[1:32:23] Speaker 1: last year, last year we wasn't athletic. You just signed Jake. Okay?
[1:32:29] Speaker 1: Right there. Huh? Line it up. You just signed Jake.
[1:32:31] Speaker 1: We still got the fan, though. Huh? Motherfucker. You're telling
[1:32:36] Speaker 1: me we're going to get Al Horford? He's going to
[1:32:38] Speaker 1: be available. That leg in front. I'm going to just
[1:32:41] Speaker 1: say that. You got to get your face right. All right.
[1:32:45] Speaker 2: So let's, but DeAndre Aiden still available, but here's the
[1:32:48] Speaker 2: caveat Gil. Aiden initially signed with the Pacers back in
[1:32:51] Speaker 2: the day, signed that offer sheet with them before the
[1:32:53] Speaker 2: Suns match and he had to come back to Phoenix.
[1:32:56] Speaker 2: As you may know, the Pacers do not have Miles
[1:32:58] Speaker 2: Turner anymore. So they could be in the hunt for
[1:33:02] Speaker 2: a new center as well. But is it DeAndre Aydin
[1:33:04] Speaker 2: or Buss with the Lakers and free agency.
[1:33:06] Speaker 1: In terms of the thing? Think about that. That's why
[1:33:08] Speaker 1: I do the thinking.
[1:33:09] Speaker 2: Aydin might go to Indiana. Aydin might go to Indiana. No,
[1:33:13] Speaker 2: they hurt him. DeAndre Aydin initially wanted to go to Indiana.
[1:33:15] Speaker 2: That would be a great team. He'd like to work.
[1:33:18] Speaker 2: He'd be the starting center over here.
[1:33:19] Speaker 1: We need you. We need you. We need you. We
[1:33:24] Speaker 1: just came off the final. Bear down. Bear down. If
[1:33:29] Speaker 1: I said anything about you. Is he ready for that
[1:33:32] Speaker 1: Laker culture? I know he got stuck in the snow.
[1:33:35] Speaker 1: He's already trying to go somewhere else. The Laker culture
[1:33:38] Speaker 1: is dangerous. He's ready for it. We bullied a great man. Oh, man.
[1:33:43] Speaker 1: Lakers be booing you. Lakers be booing you. No, we
[1:33:45] Speaker 1: won't boo your head. Not him. Not him. That shit
[1:33:48] Speaker 1: they did to Dwight and Russ. No, that was because
[1:33:51] Speaker 1: we thought we had a chance. We need you. We
[1:33:54] Speaker 1: need him. We need. We didn't need the other ones.
[1:33:58] Speaker 1: We need him. Uh-oh. Wait, hold on. The Lakers need somebody?
[1:34:02] Speaker 1: So we don't have a chance now? Lord have mercy.
[1:34:04] Speaker 1: If we don't get him. Brother, have you been watching?
[1:34:06] Speaker 1: I'm just saying. So how are we approaching this? Those
[1:34:08] Speaker 1: brothers are starving. Why don't the Lakers just start an
[1:34:10] Speaker 1: only man phase? We need him. Won't the Lakers start
[1:34:12] Speaker 1: an OnlyFans? Or y'all just do that? Start an OnlyFans.
[1:34:15] Speaker 1: Y'all be thinking about it. We got Jake LaRocca. And
[1:34:18] Speaker 1: we got Aiden. I got hope.
[1:34:21] Speaker 2: Get some corking out there. Get some corking out there. No, see,
[1:34:25] Speaker 2: that's the problem. That's the problem. So let's talk about
[1:34:28] Speaker 2: the future of the Lakers. Yesterday, Shams reported that Lakers
[1:34:31] Speaker 2: are prioritizing two-year contracts right now in the hopes of
[1:34:34] Speaker 2: freeing up a max salary slot in 2027. So this
[1:34:38] Speaker 2: comes on the heels of the statement made by Rich
[1:34:39] Speaker 2: Paul that his client LeBron wants to prioritize winning right now.
[1:34:43] Speaker 2: Seems like those two timelines.
[1:34:45] Speaker 1: Are not aligning.
[1:34:46] Speaker 2: LeBron in his last year with the Lakers. But smart
[1:34:49] Speaker 2: for the Lakers to be looking ahead to free up
[1:34:51] Speaker 2: cap space for 2027. Gil, I'll ask you first. Lakers
[1:34:54] Speaker 2: fan since 1996. Oh, Kobe Flex, I'm a Lakers fan. Yeah.
[1:35:00] Speaker 1: Talking all that shit yesterday. Through everything we did for y'all. Mm-mm-mm.
[1:35:11] Speaker 2: Brought you Bronny 50 million in jersey sales for a
[1:35:15] Speaker 2: 55th pick we did that for you what'd you say
[1:35:21] Speaker 2: smart for the Lakers to be looking ahead to free
[1:35:23] Speaker 2: up cap space for 2027 according to reports Luca will
[1:35:27] Speaker 2: sign his extension in August Bron in the last year
[1:35:29] Speaker 2: of his deal many believe this will be his last
[1:35:32] Speaker 2: year with the.
[1:35:32] Speaker 1: Lakers what did we do to clear up cap space.
[1:35:35] Speaker 2: Sign two-year deals. So for 2027, you'll have a lot
[1:35:39] Speaker 2: of bread. It's going to be a rough year next year.
[1:35:41] Speaker 2: So that's what we did to clear up cap space?
[1:35:45] Speaker 1: Mm-mm-mm. Okay, so... They're prioritizing your contract bucks. Send a
[1:35:50] Speaker 1: nigga home with his money cleared up cap space. Okay.
[1:35:54] Speaker 1: That looks like it's cleared up. Okay. Still on the
[1:35:58] Speaker 1: cap for the next five years. What Houston did was trade.
[1:36:01] Speaker 4: Hey, I'm not giving you this money unless you go
[1:36:03] Speaker 4: take just five more and extend.
[1:36:05] Speaker 1: It for two cleared up money.
[1:36:08] Speaker 4: We got, we had Braun say, give me my 53.
[1:36:12] Speaker 1: We had Austin said, Hell no, we ain't going. Hell no.
[1:36:17] Speaker 1: I'm not signing for it. Hell no, we won't go.
[1:36:21] Speaker 1: I don't see what we cleared up. Are you acting
[1:36:25] Speaker 1: like you? No, Black and Mild. And then we ain't
[1:36:27] Speaker 1: have no money. Black and Mild.
[1:36:29] Speaker 4: We cleared up to keep Black and Mild. Then we
[1:36:34] Speaker 4: called Jake. First thing we did was call Jake. First
[1:36:39] Speaker 4: thing y'all did was sold a team. Y'all sold a
[1:36:41] Speaker 4: team first. You got out the shit.
[1:36:43] Speaker 2: Now the nigga that took over, he's like, look at
[1:36:46] Speaker 2: the shit we in.
[1:36:47] Speaker 1: Let's go get Jake. Let's go get this nigga named Jake.
[1:36:51] Speaker 1: But that ain't Jake Paul. He don't matter. This is
[1:36:55] Speaker 1: my wife's second. Give me some good news. All right.
[1:36:59] Speaker 1: What are they doing out there, man? All right. We're
[1:37:03] Speaker 1: just going to be all right. Six years gone down
[1:37:05] Speaker 1: the drain. I just paid $ 10 billion valuation for this team.
[1:37:07] Speaker 1: What do we got? Gone. We got it. We're going
[1:37:09] Speaker 1: to be all right, man. Can't get to the six years, baby.
[1:37:11] Speaker 1: We're going to be all right. No, we're good. I know.
[1:37:13] Speaker 1: I mean, we're going to be good. I mean, just
[1:37:14] Speaker 1: two years from now. We're going to have it. We're
[1:37:15] Speaker 1: just going to be looking for the next. We got
[1:37:18] Speaker 1: Jake AR. I got the Wizards. And I got the Lakers. Yeah,
[1:37:22] Speaker 1: it's going to be some hard times. Yeah. Well, you know.
[1:37:24] Speaker 1: They saying don't nobody want to play for them. We
[1:37:26] Speaker 1: got Luca. That's all we need right now. Everybody want
[1:37:29] Speaker 1: to play for the Lakers. Not everybody. You know what
[1:37:32] Speaker 1: I'm saying? Who?
[1:37:33] Speaker 7: Everybody want to play for next year.
[1:37:35] Speaker 1: Everybody don't want to play for next year.
[1:37:37] Speaker 2: I don't think nobody want to play for the Lakers.
[1:37:40] Speaker 1: Lakers is dangerous.
[1:37:41] Speaker 5: I'm just saying, playing for the Lakers is dangerous. I
[1:37:45] Speaker 5: get the marketing, but shit, they talking.
[1:37:47] Speaker 1: Crazy about you behind the post. Like Debo, we're going
[1:37:50] Speaker 1: to bully you the fuck out of here. Get out
[1:37:52] Speaker 1: of here. Lakers fans bully the crazy. Bullies talk crazy.
[1:37:56] Speaker 1: Beasley talk crazy. They all like, man, when I was
[1:37:58] Speaker 1: in the Lakers, they... Beasley can't see a shit. Beasley
[1:38:02] Speaker 1: can't see a motherfucking thing. What you gonna be? He's
[1:38:06] Speaker 1: a stupid motherfucker. Damn. Damn, boy.
[1:38:10] Speaker 7: From Lord Pippen.
[1:38:15] Speaker 1: To... You said Michael Beasley. No, I said... Oh, he
[1:38:21] Speaker 1: had COVID brain right there. No, we didn't say Michael Beasley.
[1:38:25] Speaker 1: Hot COVID. They were talking about Michael Beasley. No. You
[1:38:30] Speaker 1: said Malik. Oh, that's what I thought. That's what you're saying.
[1:38:33] Speaker 1: That's what I thought. You said, who you saying? Yes,
[1:38:35] Speaker 1: that's who you're talking about. Y'all talking about the same person.
[1:38:37] Speaker 1: Michael or Malik? Malik. Oh, yeah. Malik. All right.
[1:38:41] Speaker 2: Well, if you were Luka, how would you feel about
[1:38:43] Speaker 2: all this discourse the last few days surrounding the Lakers?
[1:38:46] Speaker 2: And would it make you want to stay in Los Angeles?
[1:38:49] Speaker 1: I can't move. You just asked me.
[1:38:52] Speaker 2: If you were in the role of Luka, getting ready
[1:38:56] Speaker 2: to sign an extension August 2nd, and the Lakers say,
[1:38:59] Speaker 2: guess what? We got Jake LaRavia coming to save the day.
[1:39:03] Speaker 2: I'm going to wait. But in 2027, we're going to
[1:39:08] Speaker 2: have big bread. Get you yoked.
[1:39:12] Speaker 1: That was sick. Get over it, man. Hey, man. Can
[1:39:17] Speaker 1: we cut somebody and then sign them back? Like, If
[1:39:20] Speaker 1: Bucks wanted Dane back, can they bring him back? No, sir.
[1:39:25] Speaker 1: Why not? Is that part of a rule? Yeah. If
[1:39:29] Speaker 1: I waive you, I can't send Josephine back. We already
[1:39:34] Speaker 1: had a deal. What I'm saying is that part of a...
[1:39:35] Speaker 1: That's part of the collective bargain. How long after I
[1:39:40] Speaker 1: waive you.
[1:39:43] Speaker 4: So I can go to another team tomorrow and then
[1:39:45] Speaker 4: they waive me and I can come back?
[1:39:48] Speaker 2: And still get that five for 22?
[1:39:49] Speaker 1: Yeah, no, the five is locked down. Once I waive you,
[1:39:51] Speaker 1: that's locked down. If you go sign another deal and
[1:39:54] Speaker 1: then they be like, you know what? I waive you.
[1:39:56] Speaker 1: I can pick that player back up, right? So you'd
[1:39:59] Speaker 1: be getting two checks from the Bucs. Yes. And one
[1:40:03] Speaker 1: from another team.
[1:40:05] Speaker 4: No, it's not happening, but it's possible, right?
[1:40:07] Speaker 1: I think it has to wait a couple seasons in
[1:40:10] Speaker 1: order to go back to more.
[1:40:11] Speaker 4: It's a couple seasons or just a regular team? So
[1:40:15] Speaker 4: hear me out. I want to know if this is possible.
[1:40:19] Speaker 1: Okay, so Braun just signed his 53, and it kind
[1:40:23] Speaker 1: of handicapped us. So if I say, hey, we sending
[1:40:27] Speaker 1: your ass home, and we cut him, get out of here.
[1:40:31] Speaker 1: So who? Just cut him. Wait, let me finish the plan. Okay?
[1:40:37] Speaker 1: And then someone else signs him, like the Clippers, right?
[1:40:43] Speaker 1: And then they was like, you know what? I have
[1:40:45] Speaker 1: too many problems here. We're going to cut you.
[1:40:48] Speaker 4: And then they cut him, and then we signed him back.
[1:40:51] Speaker 4: The 53 is off our books. You get what I'm
[1:40:55] Speaker 4: talking about? Now we got $ 53 million right now, and
[1:40:59] Speaker 4: we got Braun back with our team. We don't got
[1:41:03] Speaker 4: to wait two years because we got freed up. It's
[1:41:07] Speaker 4: a long shot because I don't think no one's that.
[1:41:09] Speaker 1: It's a very long shot. Dope or what? It's a
[1:41:11] Speaker 1: long shot. No, I'm just saying, but is that possible?
[1:41:14] Speaker 1: I'm just asking if it's possible.
[1:41:15] Speaker 4: Because all we need is someone that we got good
[1:41:18] Speaker 4: relationships with, like Dallas, that can sign him and cut him.
[1:41:23] Speaker 4: Like we did something for y'all. You can sign Braun
[1:41:27] Speaker 4: and then cut him and then he's back open to
[1:41:29] Speaker 4: the market and we can get him back. I'm just saying,
[1:41:30] Speaker 4: is that a thing that's possible? I don't think it
[1:41:32] Speaker 4: is a possibility. You know, loopholes is a loophole.
[1:41:35] Speaker 1: It's a hell of a drug, right? All you need
[1:41:37] Speaker 1: is someone. It's a hell of a drug. All you
[1:41:39] Speaker 1: need is a friend. It's a hell of a drug.
[1:41:41] Speaker 1: It's a hell of a drug. Who doesn't want to
[1:41:43] Speaker 1: be a winner? Well, I did that for you. You
[1:41:46] Speaker 1: had two deals. You know, as a player. And then
[1:41:48] Speaker 1: when I left, you had the coaching money, too. Coach
[1:41:51] Speaker 1: and player, baby.
[1:41:52] Speaker 2: Well, we will see what the Lakers have in store
[1:41:55] Speaker 2: in this free agency.
[1:41:56] Speaker 1: Always find a loophole. We got Jake LaRavia. We got
[1:41:59] Speaker 1: their number one target. Who would do that? I don't know, man.
[1:42:01] Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure that'd be collusion.
[1:42:04] Speaker 2: The Lakers did secure their number one free agent.
[1:42:08] Speaker 1: That's called COVID brain. The first call. Call me Mike.
[1:42:14] Speaker 1: Mike Beasley.
[1:42:15] Speaker 2: It's 3 p.m. on Monday. We got Laravi on the phone.
[1:42:20] Speaker 1: I'm not going to say nothing about that, but you
[1:42:22] Speaker 1: know when you just see a motherfucker on the side
[1:42:25] Speaker 1: of the freeway and then you ask your questions, what
[1:42:28] Speaker 1: did he do to get here? There's going to be
[1:42:34] Speaker 1: a day you're going to see a motherfucker on the
[1:42:37] Speaker 1: side just chilling with the beer. Is that going to
[1:42:41] Speaker 1: be you? With the drink. Talking about old times. Talking
[1:42:46] Speaker 1: about the arena. With the basketball short song. With the ball.
[1:42:51] Speaker 1: Saying a whole bunch of shit that don't make sense.
[1:42:55] Speaker 1: We know where it started from. Right here. These moments.
[1:42:58] Speaker 1: It just popped up in his head. Been there. Done that. Yeah.
[1:43:04] Speaker 1: It ain't too cozy under the bridge. You found me
[1:43:07] Speaker 1: on the street. It ain't too cozy. It ain't cold.
[1:43:10] Speaker 1: Tell them stories. You gotta light the fire. All right, well,
[1:43:13] Speaker 1: we will see what the election... That trash bin over
[1:43:14] Speaker 1: there put some water in there. Let me tell y'all
[1:43:17] Speaker 1: a story. Oh, but... Let me tell y'all a story.
[1:43:23] Speaker 1: Somebody got... Somebody got... We gotta get a smoke. Give
[1:43:28] Speaker 1: it to me. Scary Terry's free. Feds found him innocent.
[1:43:32] Speaker 1: Terry Rozier. For real? Yeah. Man, now they threw dirt
[1:43:36] Speaker 1: on his name. They did, for real. I heard he
[1:43:39] Speaker 1: told on Malik. Hey, nigga, come sub. Come sub me up.
[1:43:46] Speaker 1: Sub me up. Sub me. I ain't doing it, nigga.
[1:43:51] Speaker 1: But I know somebody who did. Look over there. I
[1:43:54] Speaker 1: was just playing bad. Don't look over there. I was
[1:43:57] Speaker 1: just playing bad. 10 seconds, Mark. Go look at that shit.
[1:43:59] Speaker 1: Tell me who did it for real. Oh, shit. Now
[1:44:02] Speaker 1: watch this. That wasn't no controller freeze. Who did that?
[1:44:10] Speaker 1: Push the button. Hey, that's a teller. Go, dog. Go. Hey,
[1:44:14] Speaker 1: that's what you lose. You lose in the game. And
[1:44:18] Speaker 1: the buzzer, he be like, damn, nigga, did he just
[1:44:21] Speaker 1: control her at the fucking TV, nigga? You just stop, nigga.
[1:44:24] Speaker 1: That look like a fucking Instagram clip where you just follow. Hey,
[1:44:28] Speaker 1: I'm about to go left or right, and then you're
[1:44:29] Speaker 1: going to fly that way. Shoes going to come off.
[1:44:31] Speaker 1: I got you. He's trying to chase him. That shit
[1:44:34] Speaker 1: was crazy. Then he turned around. He turned around with
[1:44:39] Speaker 1: his bike. He was like, oh. He had a whole
[1:44:41] Speaker 1: hip replacement. Damn. He turned around like a cruise ship.
[1:44:45] Speaker 1: He's like a cruise ship. Damn. Boy. Hey, did you
[1:44:51] Speaker 1: do one of these? Damn. Damn. Why y'all ain't helping?
[1:45:05] Speaker 1: Motherfucker ran a wheel around football. Oh, my God. Let
[1:45:10] Speaker 1: me go ahead and back this motherfucker up real quick.
[1:45:14] Speaker 2: Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for watching the show today.
[1:45:18] Speaker 1: If it's our last, it's been a pleasure. We didn't
[1:45:20] Speaker 1: do it. No, we didn't do it. We didn't do it.
[1:45:23] Speaker 1: We didn't do a goddamn thing. Like I said, I
[1:45:25] Speaker 1: see the clip and I just said something. That was it.
[1:45:27] Speaker 1: It just made sense. Both of them. Like, how he
[1:45:29] Speaker 1: get off of here? Okay, that's what happened. I've seen
[1:45:32] Speaker 1: this before. I've seen this before. First 48. Stop showing
[1:45:37] Speaker 1: niggas the tape. I'm going to kill. I'm just saying
[1:45:39] Speaker 1: that somebody in Minnesota.
[1:45:41] Speaker 7: I'm just saying.
[1:45:45] Speaker 1: I'm just saying.
[1:45:46] Speaker 6: I live for the motherfucking jail.
[1:45:48] Speaker 1: That's all I'm going to do. That's all I'm going
[1:45:51] Speaker 1: to do. That's all I'm going to do. I just
[1:45:54] Speaker 1: know he just do a dance. That's it. He hit
[1:45:57] Speaker 1: that parlay for 5,000. It's a nigga in Detroit. It's
[1:46:01] Speaker 1: a nigga in Detroit. It's a nigga in Detroit. Five
[1:46:06] Speaker 1: for five. My nigga what? It's a nigga in Detroit.
[1:46:09] Speaker 1: You played for Detroit, yeah. Five for five. Five for
[1:46:12] Speaker 1: five plus 12. How about you put on it? $ 4, 000.
[1:46:19] Speaker 15: Full course meal. Give me your shit, your dumb ass.
[1:46:23] Speaker 15: They had a full course meal. Let's keep this thing moving.
[1:46:27] Speaker 15: Much more free agency. You don't want to spend that money.
[1:46:29] Speaker 15: You don't want to spend that money when you're thinking
[1:46:32] Speaker 15: of COVID.
[1:46:32] Speaker 2: So let's head over to the Eastern Conference. Jordan Clarkson
[1:46:36] Speaker 2: was bought off by the Jazz yesterday and less than
[1:46:38] Speaker 2: 24 hours passed before it was reported he would be
[1:46:40] Speaker 2: joining the New York Knicks once he clears waivers. So
[1:46:43] Speaker 2: to celebrate the news, his former teammate on the Lakers,
[1:46:45] Speaker 2: Josh Hart, posted this on his IG story. Let's take
[1:46:48] Speaker 2: a look. My boy, Jordan Clarkson. Look at them, almost
[1:46:51] Speaker 2: giving a high five. As you may recall, Josh Hart,
[1:46:55] Speaker 2: often left hanging. So nice to see former Lakers teammates
[1:46:58] Speaker 2: reunite in New York. The Knicks bench struggled, a weakness
[1:47:01] Speaker 2: that was exposed by Indiana in this postseason. Clarkson has
[1:47:04] Speaker 2: 66 games of scoring 20 or more off the bench
[1:47:07] Speaker 2: over the last five seasons. Most of any player in
[1:47:09] Speaker 2: the league in that span. Knicks also agreed with Gershon
[1:47:12] Speaker 2: Yabusele to a two-year, $ 12 million contract with a player
[1:47:15] Speaker 2: option in the second year. You might remember him from
[1:47:18] Speaker 2: the Olympics. He did something to a certain player that
[1:47:21] Speaker 2: we won't talk about.
[1:47:21] Speaker 1: He didn't pay for that, though. Gershon.
[1:47:24] Speaker 2: From Philly?
[1:47:25] Speaker 1: Yeah. Gershon.
[1:47:28] Speaker 2: Are the Knicks your favorites in the Eastern Conference after
[1:47:30] Speaker 2: strengthening their bench?
[1:47:32] Speaker 1: This question did not come from me, as you guys know.
[1:47:34] Speaker 1: Are they the favorites? Are they the favorites in the
[1:47:36] Speaker 1: Eastern Conference after strengthening their bench? Do they have a coach?
[1:47:39] Speaker 1: They ain't got a coach yet. Fair question. Do they
[1:47:40] Speaker 1: have a coach yet? No. Okay, well, then no. Don't
[1:47:44] Speaker 1: need one. Do they need one? Yes. Yes. Yes. You
[1:47:46] Speaker 1: need a coach. I just went last year to him. Yes.
[1:47:48] Speaker 1: You need a coach. Yes. You need somebody to coach.
[1:47:52] Speaker 1: They didn't have a coach last year. Yeah, they did. No,
[1:47:56] Speaker 1: they didn't. They didn't have a coach last year. No,
[1:47:59] Speaker 1: they didn't. Brunson, do you? No, Tibbs was their coach
[1:48:02] Speaker 1: last year. Brunson, get the ball, no sub. That's not
[1:48:06] Speaker 1: a coach. Subbing is the coaching part. Play, play. 48, 48, 48, 48, 48.
[1:48:09] Speaker 1: Let me know if y'all need a sub. Damn, he
[1:48:10] Speaker 1: in foul trouble. You need more? Damn, he in foul trouble.
[1:48:21] Speaker 1: Foul trouble. What'd I do? How many you got? How
[1:48:23] Speaker 1: many you got? How many you got? What'd I? I'm
[1:48:25] Speaker 1: going to take my chance. I'm going to take my chance.
[1:48:28] Speaker 1: You better not foul. Don't foul. You better not foul.
[1:48:31] Speaker 1: Be foul. Damn. You're a cat. You're a cat. You're
[1:48:34] Speaker 1: the best. Again. So who else we got on this team?
[1:48:37] Speaker 1: Where's Patrick Ewing at? Where's Patrick? I'm like, God damn, coach.
[1:48:41] Speaker 1: They got three.
[1:48:41] Speaker 7: I'm going to still take my chance.
[1:48:43] Speaker 1: You know he wasn't coaching. You know he wasn't something
[1:48:45] Speaker 1: where they fired a nigga for not subbing. Yeah, that's sick.
[1:48:49] Speaker 2: Does this Clarkson move kind of shift away from tip
[1:48:52] Speaker 2: defensive mentality, bringing in a famously one-way player who gets
[1:48:56] Speaker 2: buckets but maybe struggles on the defensive end?
[1:48:58] Speaker 1: How do we know he struggles? Yeah. Uh-oh. It's just
[1:49:04] Speaker 1: because people said it. That's called narrative. Take a sip.
[1:49:12] Speaker 1: It's truth serum.
[1:49:13] Speaker 2: But nonetheless, gets buckets on the offensive end, does it
[1:49:15] Speaker 2: seem like they're shifting away? All the New York Knickers play, hey,
[1:49:20] Speaker 2: they play defense. I'm pretty sure they can survive. Everybody
[1:49:23] Speaker 2: else play defense. I'm pretty sure they can survive with
[1:49:26] Speaker 2: one person. I don't play D either. Them two. The
[1:49:30] Speaker 2: two stars don't play. Everybody else do their job. Talking
[1:49:33] Speaker 2: about the Knicks lacking a coach right now. So according
[1:49:35] Speaker 2: to reports, Mike Brown is the leader in the coaching
[1:49:39] Speaker 2: search currently.
[1:49:40] Speaker 1: I like Mike. Knicks also interviewed Don Staley. Old school.
[1:49:45] Speaker 1: Come again? Mike Brown or Mike Brown? Wait, wait, Brown. Brown. Wait, stop.
[1:49:50] Speaker 1: Say that again.
[1:49:50] Speaker 6: Oh, he's going to do it. He's going to do it.
[1:49:52] Speaker 6: He's going to do it. He's going to do it.
[1:49:54] Speaker 6: He's going to do it. It's new. You're going to
[1:49:57] Speaker 6: do it. You're going to do it. You're going to
[1:49:59] Speaker 6: make him do it. I'm telling you who they're going
[1:50:01] Speaker 6: to do it.
[1:50:02] Speaker 1: No, I thought he said Don Staley. A great coach.
[1:50:07] Speaker 1: We've all seen Eddie. We know the powers that are.
[1:50:09] Speaker 1: Women coach could have in New York. Well, he did
[1:50:11] Speaker 1: it anyway. Getting that team right. There you go. No,
[1:50:13] Speaker 1: they didn't say that. They explained. There you go. They
[1:50:15] Speaker 1: interviewed her. That was AI. Oh. And not the one
[1:50:19] Speaker 1: that we know. South Carolina? South Carolina? Under contract. She's
[1:50:24] Speaker 1: going to be the coach of the Knicks? Was interviewed.
[1:50:27] Speaker 1: I like the move for Jordan, though. The move for Jordan.
[1:50:31] Speaker 1: I like the move for Jordan. So far, what coached?
[1:50:36] Speaker 1: has actually like like they've been.
[1:50:38] Speaker 4: I'm serious like you got rid of tibbs you got
[1:50:47] Speaker 4: rid of tibbs that was the coach that got to
[1:50:50] Speaker 4: where he got to right and you fired.
[1:50:52] Speaker 1: Him and then ever since you're telling me you're taking
[1:50:58] Speaker 1: this shit serious and you've been going after coaches who's
[1:51:03] Speaker 1: Already have jobs. Currently under contract with them. Every single
[1:51:06] Speaker 1: one of them. And Mike Brown is the only actual
[1:51:10] Speaker 1: coach that can say, yes, I want the job and
[1:51:13] Speaker 1: don't have no baggage coming with them. Currently unemployed. Mike
[1:51:19] Speaker 1: Brown is the only real coach that they went after
[1:51:22] Speaker 1: that actually can say, I want to. Then Stanley should
[1:51:26] Speaker 1: just re-up, right? Okay.
[1:51:30] Speaker 2: So it's just, again, all the front to get Rick Brunson.
[1:51:35] Speaker 1: Just do it. Nobody give a fuck. You just signed
[1:51:37] Speaker 1: some more players. I think the city's happy right now.
[1:51:41] Speaker 1: It'll be too obvious. It's obvious. It's already obvious. It's not.
[1:51:45] Speaker 1: It's not.
[1:51:46] Speaker 6: Nobody knows what's going on. Nobody has no idea. And
[1:51:49] Speaker 6: what's wrong with the daddy being a coach?
[1:51:51] Speaker 1: We're going to know. What's wrong with the daddy being
[1:51:53] Speaker 1: a coach? Because it's just a thing. My daddy said
[1:51:56] Speaker 1: I could play. You ain't seen it before? Yeah.
[1:51:58] Speaker 6: You see how I'm playing out in the football, in
[1:52:01] Speaker 6: the little league shit, in the AAU, your daddy.
[1:52:05] Speaker 1: The coach, you get all the minutes. He gonna get
[1:52:07] Speaker 1: all the minutes regardless.
[1:52:09] Speaker 6: But now you don't never fuck up. And y'all having
[1:52:11] Speaker 6: private meetings at home and shit. Hot chocolate at 2 a.m.
[1:52:14] Speaker 1: Or shit. That's when we're going to run tomorrow. We
[1:52:16] Speaker 1: ain't going to tell them. Y'all setting up audibles and shit.
[1:52:19] Speaker 1: Y'all know it. I'm going to give you the wink
[1:52:21] Speaker 1: right here. Don't pass that nigga the ball. We see
[1:52:23] Speaker 1: what happens when they let you run the show. 2 a.m.
[1:52:25] Speaker 1: He's the only one that can coach his son. No,
[1:52:27] Speaker 1: he can't. And check him. He's the only one that
[1:52:29] Speaker 1: checks him. Yeah. He's the only one. Because he's not
[1:52:32] Speaker 1: the head coach. Yeah, but if he was a head coach,
[1:52:35] Speaker 1: he had to change it. He had to change how
[1:52:37] Speaker 1: he check up. He had to. He can't do that
[1:52:41] Speaker 1: in front of the group like he used to. Why?
[1:52:43] Speaker 1: Because he's the head coach.
[1:52:46] Speaker 4: How I coached him when he was little all the
[1:52:48] Speaker 4: way into now, he's the only one I use.
[1:52:51] Speaker 1: I make more than you. Cool. Cool. Sit your ass down.
[1:52:55] Speaker 1: I make more than you. Then we got to ride
[1:52:56] Speaker 1: home together. No, we don't. No, they ain't starting. You
[1:53:00] Speaker 1: think they live with him?
[1:53:02] Speaker 4: As them two? If you watched their story growing up, oh, no.
[1:53:08] Speaker 4: There's still a hierarchy. Yeah, it's Jake Sholesworth. It's the
[1:53:11] Speaker 4: Jake Sholesworth. Yeah, for sure.
[1:53:14] Speaker 6: But that's what I'm saying. If they bump heads, it's like,
[1:53:16] Speaker 6: what is it going to look like? That's because he's
[1:53:18] Speaker 6: an assistant coach. You beefing with the head coach and.
[1:53:21] Speaker 1: Your daddy in front of the group, that shit going
[1:53:24] Speaker 1: to look fucking terrible. You can't be bringing y'all family
[1:53:27] Speaker 1: problems in this motherfucker.
[1:53:28] Speaker 2: They say NWA, who work for who? That's the first
[1:53:30] Speaker 2: thing you're going to hear is some person who works
[1:53:32] Speaker 2: for who.
[1:53:32] Speaker 1: You're like, what the fuck y'all on? That shit won't work, bro. No,
[1:53:36] Speaker 1: that shit ain't going to work. Not when he's supposed
[1:53:40] Speaker 1: to be the man. If he was like Colby Carlson.
[1:53:43] Speaker 1: Austin Rivers, yeah. Maybe.
[1:53:48] Speaker 3: Dad was the one that made the decision to sign
[1:53:50] Speaker 3: him and do all that shit. But the man is
[1:53:52] Speaker 3: already here. I don't think that shit works. Not in
[1:53:55] Speaker 3: that city. Another city, maybe?
[1:53:59] Speaker 1: Yeah. That city, you start losing, there's some shit that
[1:54:02] Speaker 1: can go on, but you know the shit, man, please.
[1:54:05] Speaker 1: They went and got every player they love. Personal and brutal.
[1:54:09] Speaker 1: They went and got every player Bronson loved to play with.
[1:54:12] Speaker 14: Yeah.
[1:54:15] Speaker 1: You think Pop should take it? They all know his dad.
[1:54:19] Speaker 1: That's a P-foot disaster. Why would he?
[1:54:20] Speaker 7: Don't change that right now. What's his name, Pachincho? Did
[1:54:24] Speaker 7: Pachincho say when he got mad at him?
[1:54:26] Speaker 2: We'll see what happens when they let you run the show,
[1:54:29] Speaker 2: Dante DiVincenzo.
[1:54:30] Speaker 1: Yeah. So it's been happening already. We'll see what happens
[1:54:34] Speaker 1: when they let you run the show. It's been happening.
[1:54:37] Speaker 1: So might as well just give it to him. What
[1:54:38] Speaker 1: did he say? Yeah, him. DeChico. Him. DeChico.
[1:54:44] Speaker 3: But, no, I don't think that shit works, not with
[1:54:46] Speaker 3: that team, not in that city, not with the way
[1:54:49] Speaker 3: that Jalen Brunson already dominates the ball.
[1:54:54] Speaker 1: And who's the one who yells him to get off
[1:54:55] Speaker 1: of it? His daddy. Yeah, because he's an assistant. Yeah,
[1:55:00] Speaker 1: you can yell that shit. It's like the ring guy
[1:55:03] Speaker 1: on the bottom. The bottom guy, you can say shit,
[1:55:05] Speaker 1: but then you listen to the man. So what happens
[1:55:06] Speaker 1: when the father becomes head coach and he can't check
[1:55:08] Speaker 1: his son like he always does? Who does it now?
[1:55:11] Speaker 1: So would Jalen go in that motherfucker and be like, listen, man,
[1:55:13] Speaker 1: I can't play for this motherfucker, dog. Straight up. But
[1:55:16] Speaker 1: he sure does. Then what? I'm just asking, then what?
[1:55:19] Speaker 1: He go to the door and be like, listen, dog.
[1:55:21] Speaker 1: Can't play for this motherfucker. Hey, man, what you.
[1:55:22] Speaker 6: Pops is tripping. He's control freak. I didn't know he
[1:55:25] Speaker 6: was going to act like this.
[1:55:27] Speaker 1: Man, he... Pop's tripping, man. You want me to ask him? Man,
[1:55:30] Speaker 1: your daddy ain't going to trip. Basically. Oh, yeah. They
[1:55:33] Speaker 1: ain't got daddy. They ain't got daddy. Then he got
[1:55:36] Speaker 1: to deal with his mama now? Oh, yeah. Come on, man.
[1:55:41] Speaker 1: You want me to ask him? Boy. No, I'm telling you,
[1:55:43] Speaker 1: I'm going that mark right, man. I can't play on
[1:55:46] Speaker 1: these circumstances, man.
[1:55:49] Speaker 2: Do you think Red's dad regrets making him go to
[1:55:51] Speaker 2: Debo and try to get the beach cruiser back?
[1:55:53] Speaker 1: Did you see what he said? No.
[1:55:54] Speaker 2: That was the regret. Because he's not allowed to make
[1:55:58] Speaker 2: no mistakes. Where were they going to put the bike
[1:56:00] Speaker 2: if they did get it?
[1:56:02] Speaker 1: So now, the only person you listen to is your father, right?
[1:56:06] Speaker 4: During the season. So he's the one that keeps you
[1:56:09] Speaker 4: in check. Now, who's going to be the force of reason?
[1:56:13] Speaker 1: If the head coach is the father now, and he
[1:56:15] Speaker 1: can't say nothing, and then Brunson getting to doing what
[1:56:17] Speaker 1: Brunson can do.
[1:56:19] Speaker 3: I just flip this, right? Rick changed the offenses all together.
[1:56:26] Speaker 3: One fourth left. No, he changed the offense all together
[1:56:30] Speaker 3: like we've been saying, like put in the system, take
[1:56:32] Speaker 3: the ball out of his hand, do all these things
[1:56:33] Speaker 3: like we're saying.
[1:56:34] Speaker 1: Then what? And his numbers go from what they are
[1:56:37] Speaker 1: to 17. What I'm saying is who's the one that
[1:56:39] Speaker 1: puts Brunson back in balance if his dad can't? Because
[1:56:42] Speaker 1: he's not going to listen to his assistant coach no more.
[1:56:44] Speaker 1: Who the fuck is this dude? Well, I see what
[1:56:46] Speaker 1: he's saying.
[1:56:46] Speaker 6: He's saying even if he do get out of line,
[1:56:48] Speaker 6: if he set up a system for it, he'd have
[1:56:51] Speaker 6: to get in line because it's his dad.
[1:56:53] Speaker 14: Yeah.
[1:56:54] Speaker 2: Like if we set up a system getting you off
[1:56:55] Speaker 2: the ball. That's like getting the ball out of LeVar Ball, right?
[1:57:00] Speaker 2: He's the only one who checked those boys. JBA champion.
[1:57:03] Speaker 2: But they can't play for him. But they can't play
[1:57:05] Speaker 2: for him.
[1:57:05] Speaker 1: He's not an NBA coach. They don't like playing for him.
[1:57:08] Speaker 1: I hear you, but he's not an NBA head coach.
[1:57:09] Speaker 1: And they don't like playing for him. Off the court, yeah.
[1:57:11] Speaker 1: I hear you.
[1:57:12] Speaker 3: Yes, that's a different dynamic than that locker room, them
[1:57:17] Speaker 3: other guys. We don't, listen, I hear you, yeah, but
[1:57:21] Speaker 3: I don't think at that team and that level, the
[1:57:24] Speaker 3: way it's been, that Rick, I would love to see
[1:57:27] Speaker 3: Rick get the job.
[1:57:28] Speaker 1: Dad, son, personally, yes. I'm looking at the dynamic of
[1:57:32] Speaker 1: the whole situation. The team and everything.
[1:57:34] Speaker 6: We looking at how you judging him.
[1:57:36] Speaker 1: Like, I'm... I just... But it's already here, though. It's
[1:57:43] Speaker 1: already here. But you're not the head, though. That's the difference.
[1:57:47] Speaker 1: He is.
[1:57:47] Speaker 6: It's like Sam Cassell showing favoritism to somebody. He's the assistant.
[1:57:51] Speaker 6: He know who's the head.
[1:57:53] Speaker 1: Come on, man. I don't know. It's not. We don't
[1:57:55] Speaker 1: know who the head. So, like he said, just, y'all standing,
[1:57:58] Speaker 1: he going to that motherfucking man and be like, listen.
[1:58:01] Speaker 1: He go talk to Leon and fucking Wes and don't
[1:58:06] Speaker 1: let him listen, man. Pops do. I can't play like this, man.
[1:58:13] Speaker 1: Then what? That's what I'm saying. Then what? I'm just
[1:58:16] Speaker 1: fucking around, man. He going to get the job. Answer
[1:58:20] Speaker 1: that question. Answer that question. Brunson took less money so
[1:58:24] Speaker 1: he can get the job. Answer that question, though. That's
[1:58:27] Speaker 1: just like your son, your son's trying to fire you. Yeah.
[1:58:30] Speaker 4: Boy, I'll ring your motherfucking name. My brother's about to
[1:58:33] Speaker 4: run up here to the white man. He's trying to
[1:58:36] Speaker 4: run up to him.
[1:58:37] Speaker 3: I'm playing devil's advocate. We always throw hypotheticals out there.
[1:58:44] Speaker 3: He go in there, listen, I can't do it.
[1:58:47] Speaker 1: I feel you. I reason with you. Then what? What
[1:58:51] Speaker 1: do you do? That's all I'm saying. So you didn't
[1:58:53] Speaker 1: hire this man? Think about this. Think about what they're
[1:58:56] Speaker 1: going to say. No, what they're going to say to
[1:58:58] Speaker 1: him is you asked for this. You asked for this.
[1:59:01] Speaker 1: You can't ask out of this. But what if he
[1:59:03] Speaker 1: don't ask for it? What if he don't want it?
[1:59:05] Speaker 1: But he asked for it with the contract.
[1:59:07] Speaker 6: I took less money for this for me and my
[1:59:09] Speaker 6: dad and me to pick my guys. I'm going to
[1:59:11] Speaker 6: pick my guys. I'm going to coach this fool. So
[1:59:15] Speaker 6: I seen what you said earlier.
[1:59:17] Speaker 1: I felt it.
[1:59:17] Speaker 6: But now that I'm looking at the contract situation, who
[1:59:21] Speaker 6: the New York Knicks are right now, what they're looking for, family,
[1:59:25] Speaker 6: it makes more sense for that deal to happen and
[1:59:27] Speaker 6: him take less money like that.
[1:59:29] Speaker 1: And then we ask for what? I wouldn't want it.
[1:59:31] Speaker 1: Like for what? For Rick to take over?
[1:59:34] Speaker 3: Who's going to tell him? How hard is it not
[1:59:35] Speaker 3: to show favoritism? But he don't, though. You're not the
[1:59:40] Speaker 3: head coach yet, Gil. See, this is the difference. You
[1:59:43] Speaker 3: won't show.
[1:59:44] Speaker 1: Favoritism to your son. You don't coach. He's not making
[1:59:48] Speaker 1: any decisions. But what I'm saying is, did Doc Griffith
[1:59:50] Speaker 1: show favoritism to his son? So now, you're not showing
[1:59:53] Speaker 1: me favoritism and you treat me a certain way. Because
[2:00:02] Speaker 1: you're not trying to show me favoritism. Now, look, now,
[2:00:06] Speaker 1: I feel a fucking certain way as your goddamn son.
[2:00:08] Speaker 1: What changes? He makes no decision.
[2:00:13] Speaker 6: He has no decision making before if he's not the
[2:00:16] Speaker 6: head coach.
[2:00:17] Speaker 1: So he doesn't get blamed for anything. You talking about
[2:00:20] Speaker 1: the head coach? No, what I'm asking you is... Every
[2:00:23] Speaker 1: star get favoritism. What am I going to do?
[2:00:26] Speaker 4: What is the father going to do next year to
[2:00:29] Speaker 4: show favoritism to a dude who takes all the shots,
[2:00:32] Speaker 4: whatever he wants.
[2:00:33] Speaker 1: But he did that under tears. He didn't do that
[2:00:35] Speaker 1: over him. Have y'all ever talked to anybody that Austin
[2:00:38] Speaker 1: Rivers and the Clippers?
[2:00:40] Speaker 3: Have y'all ever had a conversation with anybody that was
[2:00:42] Speaker 3: Austin Rivers and the Clippers?
[2:00:44] Speaker 1: No, that's what I was asking. So how was that?
[2:00:48] Speaker 1: I would bet money that majority of niggas in that
[2:00:52] Speaker 1: locker room.
[2:00:54] Speaker 2: Austin said it. Austin said it was a problem for him.
[2:00:57] Speaker 2: And he's not even a star. But that's different because.
[2:01:01] Speaker 1: The reason it's different is because he doesn't play where
[2:01:05] Speaker 1: he is. He's coming here and you're playing him now. Yeah,
[2:01:08] Speaker 1: you're playing him. The other one already plays 45 minutes.
[2:01:12] Speaker 1: He takes all the shots. He don't pass in the last.
[2:01:16] Speaker 1: He already is God over there. So you coming in.
[2:01:20] Speaker 4: The only way to say favoritism is basically to play
[2:01:23] Speaker 4: them all 48 minutes as they take every shot.
[2:01:25] Speaker 1: He's doing that anyway. He's doing that anyway, so you
[2:01:27] Speaker 1: can't show favoritism. The only thing you can do is
[2:01:29] Speaker 1: take it away from them. Other ways, though. The only
[2:01:31] Speaker 1: thing you can do is make them play more team basketball,
[2:01:34] Speaker 1: which they're going to like. But what does that do
[2:01:38] Speaker 1: to him? That's what I'm saying. So if you take
[2:01:42] Speaker 1: the ball out of his hand, he go from what,
[2:01:43] Speaker 1: averaging 27? Averaging 25? No, no, no, no. I said 17.
[2:01:47] Speaker 1: Get his ass out of here. That's what I'm asking.
[2:01:52] Speaker 1: You don't see then what, right?
[2:01:54] Speaker 6: That's what he's saying. If he put in that system
[2:01:56] Speaker 6: that takes his scoring down, what is Jalen Brunson going
[2:01:59] Speaker 6: to do about his dad?
[2:02:00] Speaker 1: I need to do 17 and 11, dude. 1711 what
[2:02:03] Speaker 1: do you think? But I thought they came together No,
[2:02:05] Speaker 1: he was an assistant or he ain't going to be
[2:02:07] Speaker 1: like sign my fucking son I Fucking front office made
[2:02:27] Speaker 1: that decision. But he came in with Tibbs, right? Because
[2:02:28] Speaker 1: Dallas botched the motherfucking deal. But he came in with Tibbs.
[2:02:32] Speaker 1: He came in with Tibbs and the Uncle Wes deal.
[2:02:34] Speaker 1: They brought him in collectively.
[2:02:35] Speaker 3: Ooh, but it just worked out. But I'm just like, yeah.
[2:02:38] Speaker 3: But it's just, I don't see that happening, to be
[2:02:41] Speaker 3: honest with you.
[2:02:42] Speaker 2: So we asked the chat, are the Knicks favorites in
[2:02:44] Speaker 2: the East? 64% of the chat says no. We also
[2:02:47] Speaker 2: asked the chat, should the Knicks hire Rick Brunson as
[2:02:49] Speaker 2: head coach? 69% of the chat says no.
[2:02:52] Speaker 1: Not rolling.
[2:02:53] Speaker 2: We got some more free agency info to get into. Swag,
[2:02:55] Speaker 2: I feel like you're going to like this story. So
[2:02:57] Speaker 2: let's get to the Dallas Mavics. Drafted Cooper Flag first
[2:03:00] Speaker 2: overall last week. Continue to add depth to their roster
[2:03:03] Speaker 2: with Kyrie Irving out for most of next season as
[2:03:05] Speaker 2: he recovers from a torn ACL. We all knew the
[2:03:08] Speaker 2: Mavs would be looking for a point guard or free agency. Well,
[2:03:10] Speaker 2: yesterday they landed a point guard with experience as a
[2:03:12] Speaker 2: starter and off the bench. signing little D-Lo, D'Angelo Russell,
[2:03:16] Speaker 2: to a two-year, $ 13 million deal. I'm going to like
[2:03:19] Speaker 2: this one.
[2:03:20] Speaker 1: That's sick.
[2:03:20] Speaker 7: I'm going to go back to the Clarkson. I like
[2:03:22] Speaker 7: Clarkson for New York. Great score off the bench, something
[2:03:26] Speaker 7: they need.
[2:03:27] Speaker 1: Thank you, Swaggy. Swaggy, what's your reaction to the Mavs
[2:03:31] Speaker 1: signing little D-Lo? Oh, man. They're going to lose now.
[2:03:38] Speaker 1: Can't have fun. I can't trust the motherfucker in the
[2:03:40] Speaker 1: locker room. Camera. What you gonna do?
[2:03:43] Speaker 7: Hey, man, I was with this work last night. He
[2:03:45] Speaker 7: walk in like, damn. Y'all shut the fuck up. Right,
[2:03:48] Speaker 7: because he got the glasses on. Damn, man.
[2:03:52] Speaker 1: Can't go out, man. You got that one-on-one. You know
[2:03:57] Speaker 1: the kids who had that one-on-one? They always had somebody
[2:04:01] Speaker 1: with them in school. The belt buckle camera. He got
[2:04:04] Speaker 1: the belt buckle camera. Come on, man. Move that motherfucker right.
[2:04:08] Speaker 1: He got a camera in everything. Locking shoes, everything. It's
[2:04:11] Speaker 1: just cameras all around. Can you see this motherfucker? Can
[2:04:15] Speaker 1: you see him? Nico, I know what you're saying, bro.
[2:04:19] Speaker 1: He got the earring camera. They're about to trade Luka.
[2:04:25] Speaker 2: But let's take a look at the current Mavs roster
[2:04:27] Speaker 2: as it is constructed with the news of D'Angelo Russell
[2:04:30] Speaker 2: coming on over. So they got AD, Kyrie, obviously, who
[2:04:32] Speaker 2: will be back at some point next season, hopefully. Cooper Flagg,
[2:04:35] Speaker 2: Klay Thompson, Gafford Lively, P.J. Washington, Najee Marshall, Max Christie,
[2:04:40] Speaker 2: Little D-Lo, as we mentioned, Caleb Martin, Jaden Hardy, and
[2:04:44] Speaker 2: Olivier Maxence Prosper. Looks to be a very, very Very strong,
[2:04:51] Speaker 2: competitive roster heading into this season. Will be very competitive
[2:04:54] Speaker 2: in the Western Conference. How much credit does Nico Harrison
[2:04:56] Speaker 2: deserve for assembling this new-look Mavs roster?
[2:05:01] Speaker 1: Solid, man. That's excellent. Solid team. Like I said, they're
[2:05:07] Speaker 1: very competitive. We'll talk about it in a second. I
[2:05:11] Speaker 1: already know what you're doing. I mean, when you get
[2:05:13] Speaker 1: rid of a player like Luka... When you get rid
[2:05:16] Speaker 1: of a player like Luka.
[2:05:20] Speaker 1: I mean, you should be able to be able to
[2:05:22] Speaker 1: make moves. You know? I mean, yeah. Yeah, Caleb Martin
[2:05:27] Speaker 1: was up. Yeah. Marty can score the ball. We should
[2:05:30] Speaker 1: have got Caleb. P.J.
[2:05:32] Speaker 3: Washington still side. And Najee Marshall is a solid pro.
[2:05:34] Speaker 3: He defend and make plays. Clay, you know what he do.
[2:05:37] Speaker 3: You got your bigs covered. You add Cooper Flagg to that.
[2:05:40] Speaker 3: You get Kyrie Irving back late in the season. You're
[2:05:44] Speaker 3: in a good spot, man.
[2:05:45] Speaker 1: So, J.K. the head coach. Mad scientist, so yeah.
[2:05:52] Speaker 6: If I'm Jayden Hardy, I'm trying to take Clay Thompson's spot.
[2:05:58] Speaker 6: He got game where he can kind of take his
[2:06:01] Speaker 6: shit to another level. That is not diminishing Clay, but
[2:06:05] Speaker 6: I think just what his skill set is, he can
[2:06:08] Speaker 6: surprise that whole team. And then you got Christie and Marshall, man,
[2:06:14] Speaker 6: they can match up with.
[2:06:15] Speaker 1: Houston, man.
[2:06:16] Speaker 6: They just missing the KD matchup, but I mean, I
[2:06:20] Speaker 6: think with a healthy Kyrie.
[2:06:23] Speaker 1: I was going to ask you, what team do you
[2:06:24] Speaker 1: think is more stacked, the Mavs or the Rockets?
[2:06:25] Speaker 6: I think Houston is, but I put them right next
[2:06:27] Speaker 6: to him and gave him a chance with him.
[2:06:29] Speaker 1: So with Kyrie back, would you still feel the same way?
[2:06:31] Speaker 1: Hell yeah. Hell yeah. Even with D-Lo, D-Lo in there,
[2:06:34] Speaker 1: I think D-Lo can open up a little bit, man.
[2:06:38] Speaker 1: He's capable of doing some crazy shit, but his consistency
[2:06:42] Speaker 1: has always been off.
[2:06:43] Speaker 6: They don't have no dynamic guard outside of Jay Harden
[2:06:46] Speaker 6: that can actually do some shit off the dribble.
[2:06:50] Speaker 11: All the Texas teams are making moves. Spurs, Dallas, Houston.
[2:06:54] Speaker 11: It's going to be a tough little conference. Texas swing
[2:07:00] Speaker 11: is going to be tough.
[2:07:02] Speaker 1: Mm-hmm. Tough as fuck. Tough. Yeah, that's true. You know
[2:07:06] Speaker 1: what I'm saying? Just that little area right there. That
[2:07:08] Speaker 1: Texas swing going to be tough. Well, that's an OKC swing. OKC, Texas,
[2:07:13] Speaker 1: wherever you go. One of them teams can be in
[2:07:15] Speaker 1: the playoffs first round. 100%.
[2:07:16] Speaker 6: OKC going to have trouble, though, if they don't pick
[2:07:19] Speaker 6: up something else.
[2:07:20] Speaker 1: Yeah. No, they are.
[2:07:22] Speaker 5: Did they need to spend that much? Because they're showing
[2:07:24] Speaker 5: in the finals is beatable.
[2:07:26] Speaker 2: With KD and Houston, them going against OKC, they're going
[2:07:29] Speaker 2: to have a chance against them niggas.
[2:07:31] Speaker 1: Yeah. OKC didn't have the best showing in the finals.
[2:07:34] Speaker 1: So you think Max, they're going to give Max and
[2:07:38] Speaker 1: Hardy actual playing time? They already gave Christy. They already
[2:07:42] Speaker 1: gave Christy playing time. He played a lot of ticks.
[2:07:46] Speaker 1: But Hardy's like, he's microwave. Do you feel like somebody
[2:07:51] Speaker 1: on that roster may become expendable? I think so, too.
[2:07:54] Speaker 1: I thought they'd need to make a move for somebody.
[2:07:56] Speaker 1: They're going to keep them all, man. Until Kyrie come back,
[2:07:59] Speaker 1: they're going to need. Hey, Najee Marshall. You need Hardy
[2:08:02] Speaker 1: and Kevin. Najee Marshall and Kevin Martin. I can move them.
[2:08:05] Speaker 2: Do you feel like Klay Thompson may be impacted at
[2:08:07] Speaker 2: all looking at this crew of young?
[2:08:09] Speaker 1: If I need to, I'll move PJ. If I need to,
[2:08:13] Speaker 1: I'll move PJ. He can shoot. Understandable. Still Klay. He
[2:08:16] Speaker 1: still do what he do, so no. Still Klay. Again,
[2:08:22] Speaker 1: good problems to have for some teams in the NBA.
[2:08:25] Speaker 1: Shout out Nico, man. They was ready to off him.
[2:08:28] Speaker 1: He ain't off yet. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He ain't off yet.
[2:08:33] Speaker 1: They still got him on the grill. They just turned
[2:08:36] Speaker 1: the fire down a little bit. They still got him
[2:08:37] Speaker 1: on the grill down there. They just turned it down
[2:08:39] Speaker 1: a little bit. Turn him over. We already know what's
[2:08:42] Speaker 1: going to happen. They're going to win. They're going to
[2:08:45] Speaker 1: be like number one or two. And he going to
[2:08:48] Speaker 1: get with the GM of the year, executive of the year. Watch.
[2:08:51] Speaker 1: Watch next year. And we'll get booed. We'll get booed.
[2:08:54] Speaker 1: You're going to get booed the whole year and then
[2:08:56] Speaker 1: rewarded at the end. You think they're going to be
[2:08:58] Speaker 1: one or two? Hell no.
[2:09:01] Speaker 2: So we asked the chat, who's the best team in Texas? 63%
[2:09:04] Speaker 2: said the Rockets. 24% said the Mavs. 13% say Victor
[2:09:09] Speaker 2: Wimbyama in the San Antonio. So let's talk about other
[2:09:12] Speaker 2: moves going on with teams that are actually taking advantage
[2:09:15] Speaker 2: of the offseason to strengthen their rosters.
[2:09:18] Speaker 1: In the Western Conference.
[2:09:20] Speaker 2: Nuggets pushed OKC to seven games in the second round,
[2:09:23] Speaker 2: but after losing that series, they've started retooling the roster. Yesterday,
[2:09:26] Speaker 2: they traded Michael Porter Jr. and a 2032 first round
[2:09:30] Speaker 2: pick to the Brooklyn Nets for Cam Johnson. Actually tweeted
[2:09:33] Speaker 2: out some footage of Joker cleaning out MPJ's locker.
[2:09:35] Speaker 1: We could take a look at that right now. Yo,
[2:09:37] Speaker 1: this should be an Olympic sport, bro. Wow. Sling and dump.
[2:09:53] Speaker 2: It's just a joke for me, but this was a
[2:09:55] Speaker 2: serious move by the Nuggets. I think the Nuggets got
[2:09:58] Speaker 2: better with this move, sending MPJ to the Nets, getting Cam.
[2:10:00] Speaker 1: Johnson back in return.
[2:10:01] Speaker 2: And also freedom from cap space.
[2:10:03] Speaker 1: That's how you show a nigga you don't like him.
[2:10:07] Speaker 1: He sends you to the graveyard. He just go over
[2:10:10] Speaker 1: there and die. You can see it in his play, though.
[2:10:15] Speaker 5: You can see it in his play this year that
[2:10:16] Speaker 5: he wasn't really in tune as much. I mean, they
[2:10:21] Speaker 5: definitely got Cam. I mean, I'm rolling with Cam. Send
[2:10:23] Speaker 5: him to the worst team in the league.
[2:10:24] Speaker 2: That Brooklyn team would have to be him and Cam,
[2:10:27] Speaker 2: whatever nigga name it, was shooting.
[2:10:29] Speaker 1: Cam Thomas. Every time that. Every time that. Yeah. MPJ
[2:10:33] Speaker 1: might average 28. He might. Yeah, he might. Average 28.
[2:10:37] Speaker 1: Shoot that bitch every time. He ain't got to worry
[2:10:39] Speaker 1: about passing nobody. Is he that type of player? He is.
[2:10:42] Speaker 1: We watching Seattle. Huh? Come on, man. You remember watching
[2:10:45] Speaker 1: him in Seattle when we went to see him in Seattle?
[2:10:47] Speaker 1: He had to shoot 23 in a game? Yeah, he
[2:10:48] Speaker 1: shot that bitch every time. What that mean? And he
[2:10:51] Speaker 1: was not going in. No, he said he was going in.
[2:10:55] Speaker 1: It ain't about wins. It ain't about wins and losses.
[2:10:58] Speaker 1: That wasn't a good... Cam Thomas, assuming he re-signs the
[2:11:02] Speaker 1: restricted free agent, 2.1 career assists per game. Michael Porter Jr.,
[2:11:07] Speaker 1: 1.4 career assists per game.
[2:11:09] Speaker 6: Who will average more assists on the Nets next season?
[2:11:13] Speaker 1: Think about that. The dude that's averaging 2.1? Yeah. 1.4
[2:11:19] Speaker 1: that's his career he take the lower every time on
[2:11:24] Speaker 1: the pick him no they put him at 1.5 yeah
[2:11:29] Speaker 1: and we be like stupid ass bounce pass he average
[2:11:34] Speaker 1: one and double team and then he make the shot
[2:11:37] Speaker 1: and then it's over they never put him at three
[2:11:39] Speaker 1: it's always 1.5 they ain't gonna put him at two
[2:11:41] Speaker 1: two and a half no they gonna put him at
[2:11:43] Speaker 1: two and a half he sitting there like man I
[2:11:46] Speaker 1: ain't getting that.
[2:11:49] Speaker 2: So just looking at this move, what does it tell
[2:11:50] Speaker 2: you that Denver was willing to attach a first round
[2:11:53] Speaker 2: pick to this trade?
[2:11:55] Speaker 1: Get off that money, get off of that player. Oh,
[2:11:57] Speaker 1: they gave up a first round pick too? Yeah. Like
[2:12:01] Speaker 1: 2031 or some shit.
[2:12:02] Speaker 4: They're trying to say, I mean, they're trying to, I mean,
[2:12:04] Speaker 4: as long as you have your kids, you're trying to
[2:12:05] Speaker 4: stay in that championship window.
[2:12:08] Speaker 2: That's as much as possible. They just got Tim Hardaway.
[2:12:10] Speaker 2: They got Tim Hardaway Jr. So we'll talk about something.
[2:12:13] Speaker 2: They added Bruce Brown as well yesterday for agency.
[2:12:17] Speaker 1: Bruce Brown came back? Yeah, he came back. They're going
[2:12:20] Speaker 1: to be all right. Came back.
[2:12:22] Speaker 2: And this just in, Tim Hardaway Jr. also going to
[2:12:25] Speaker 2: the Nuggets on a one-year deal. So are the Nuggets
[2:12:28] Speaker 2: back in championship contention out west with this squad? Again,
[2:12:31] Speaker 2: took the Thunder to seven games. We're dealing with some
[2:12:33] Speaker 2: injuries in that series.
[2:12:36] Speaker 1: I ain't got to bring back Russ. Is Russ on
[2:12:40] Speaker 1: the team still or no? I think he's opting out, right?
[2:12:43] Speaker 1: Russ is opting out. That point guard with Tim, man.
[2:12:47] Speaker 2: There's been some chatter about Russ potentially in the Rockets,
[2:12:49] Speaker 2: some other teams looking at.
[2:12:50] Speaker 1: Him as well. He has somebody to pass it to.
[2:12:52] Speaker 1: I mean, they're filling in that hole. You can't for shooting.
[2:12:57] Speaker 1: You can't double now. All that, all that. Them two, yeah.
[2:13:01] Speaker 6: Them gonna shoot that. They gonna make them shoot too.
[2:13:04] Speaker 3: What is his career? He ain't passing that motherfucking needle.
[2:13:08] Speaker 3: I don't think he needs it.
[2:13:10] Speaker 1: He's like 0.9. He's like 0.9. He lost this guy, too.
[2:13:13] Speaker 1: I mean, you guys... I.
[2:13:15] Speaker 2: Just need to make it. I'm going to hear you shoot.
[2:13:20] Speaker 2: I'm going to get it there.
[2:13:22] Speaker 1: To Michael Porter's credit. They need more. Like what? They
[2:13:25] Speaker 1: need another center?
[2:13:26] Speaker 3: Yeah, you got to catch and shoot. Back up from center? Yeah,
[2:13:30] Speaker 3: DeAndre Jordan was a free agent.
[2:13:33] Speaker 1: He left? They got Valatrunis.
[2:13:35] Speaker 6: They just got Valanchunas. That's a good backup. That's a
[2:13:39] Speaker 6: great backup. Actually, fuck around and put your motherfuckers in
[2:13:42] Speaker 6: at the same time. For sure.
[2:13:44] Speaker 1: Straight up.
[2:13:46] Speaker 6: Because Valanchunas ain't no motherfucking flop.
[2:13:50] Speaker 1: Christian Brown? Yeah. So Brown and Brown. They got Bruce
[2:13:54] Speaker 1: Brown and Christian Brown. They two same players. They got
[2:13:56] Speaker 1: to get a young boy, man, an opportunity to see
[2:13:57] Speaker 1: what he can do, man. Point guard? No, Watson. We
[2:14:01] Speaker 1: got to see what he can do. What about the Strout?
[2:14:03] Speaker 1: What's his dude's? Strother? Strower? Julian Strother? Is that his name? Strother?
[2:14:08] Speaker 1: Point gone? I don't know. Man. Got a commercial. Gordon
[2:14:13] Speaker 1: coming back. Hopefully he healthy. He too young. Watson too young, bro.
[2:14:18] Speaker 1: You can tell he don't know what he be out
[2:14:19] Speaker 1: there doing. No, it was right coaching and all that shit.
[2:14:21] Speaker 1: He be all right, man. But it seems like the
[2:14:23] Speaker 1: Nuggets under... It's like more of a defensive man. Yes,
[2:14:28] Speaker 1: because he ain't developed. He's raw. He's raw as fuck.
[2:14:32] Speaker 3: You want to stick around this league. Listen, everybody can't
[2:14:37] Speaker 3: shoot that motherfucker, man. But you need to be able
[2:14:40] Speaker 3: to shoot that.
[2:14:40] Speaker 1: He can make shots. He shoots them when his fucking
[2:14:43] Speaker 1: opportunities come.
[2:14:43] Speaker 3: But if that ain't what they tell him to do
[2:14:45] Speaker 3: in order to keep his job and stay on his team,
[2:14:47] Speaker 3: then you're going to do what you motherfucking got to
[2:14:49] Speaker 3: do to stick around. That's all I'm saying. Like, you
[2:14:51] Speaker 3: got to find your niche in this league, man. Like,
[2:14:53] Speaker 3: whatever it is, if you want to stick around and
[2:14:55] Speaker 3: be consistent and have a job, you got to, hey,
[2:14:58] Speaker 3: whatever you do best and whatever they asking of you.
[2:15:02] Speaker 1: They always going to have a job for a shooter.
[2:15:04] Speaker 1: I know that. Yes, sir. And they always going to
[2:15:06] Speaker 1: have a job for a motherfucker who can stop, too. Yeah.
[2:15:10] Speaker 6: You shoot that bitch, that bitch go in, they got
[2:15:12] Speaker 6: a job for you. You run around chasing motherfuckers. The
[2:15:16] Speaker 6: last thing to go. Like what the Nuggets are doing
[2:15:18] Speaker 6: on the ground. Didn't he stop at Detroit, though?
[2:15:20] Speaker 1: Tim Hardaway. Yeah, yeah. He came off the bench. Did
[2:15:22] Speaker 1: he come off the bench? Yeah, because his name was out.
[2:15:24] Speaker 2: No, Malik came off the bench. Malik came off first, yeah.
[2:15:28] Speaker 2: And then they switched.
[2:15:30] Speaker 1: They ain't got Malik or Tim. Detroit, yeah, they missing two.
[2:15:36] Speaker 1: Two sharpshooters.
[2:15:42] Speaker 2: Heading into this past season, MPJ said this could be
[2:15:45] Speaker 2: the Nuggets' last dance. Turns out he was 100% accurate.
[2:15:48] Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying? You see how he was playing?
[2:15:51] Speaker 2: He had the AC injury. He was still shooting that bitch.
[2:15:57] Speaker 1: That was his left arm. Shooter shoot. I had my
[2:16:01] Speaker 1: left too. Shooter shoot.
[2:16:05] Speaker 5: Not the last dance for the Nuggets.
[2:16:08] Speaker 1: When we seen one of the light-skinned niggas had a
[2:16:10] Speaker 1: black eye, we realized. You just woke up the next
[2:16:15] Speaker 1: day and just, hey man, so Russell is great for us.
[2:16:19] Speaker 1: He's good for us. That's right. My guy was on
[2:16:24] Speaker 1: his side. He was like, read this. He's behind the motherfucker.
[2:16:30] Speaker 1: And the other one over there, the way he was talking,
[2:16:34] Speaker 1: he was like, all right, so you out here, man.
[2:16:37] Speaker 1: We get it. He didn't want to be there. No,
[2:16:40] Speaker 1: they didn't want him there.
[2:16:42] Speaker 4: It just seemed like people lost the spark in trying
[2:16:45] Speaker 4: to win around here. Everybody ain't working hard around here.
[2:16:49] Speaker 1: But he didn't want to be there, though. What the
[2:16:51] Speaker 1: hell when people don't want to be there? Western Conference
[2:16:56] Speaker 1: will remain stacked.
[2:16:57] Speaker 2: As we said, a lot of teams in the Western
[2:16:59] Speaker 2: Conference making good moves to strengthen their roster.
[2:17:01] Speaker 1: Others had no priorities. Man, I'm trying to see. 3 p.m.
[2:17:06] Speaker 1: Monday when the agency started. And I done sent. Y'all
[2:17:09] Speaker 1: did make a move, though, right? I done sent eight. Huh?
[2:17:12] Speaker 7: I made a good baby.
[2:17:15] Speaker 1: I didn't see an eight. Jake! You saying that? Yeah, absolutely.
[2:17:21] Speaker 1: When it's that fast, absolutely. It don't seem like it.
[2:17:25] Speaker 1: And it don't say the other shit. It would say
[2:17:28] Speaker 1: the other shit. Damn, that's crazy. I've been DMing. How long?
[2:17:32] Speaker 1: They offer them 20. I've been DMing. Uh-oh, what is it?
[2:17:43] Speaker 1: This is my theory, right? If it's less than like
[2:17:49] Speaker 1: four days, oh, you're gone. Okay. If it's longer than
[2:17:53] Speaker 1: four days, they tired, they can't. That's my theory. I
[2:18:00] Speaker 1: don't know if that's positive or negative. What happened? We
[2:18:04] Speaker 1: got something, man. We got, you know, a verdict has
[2:18:07] Speaker 1: been written. You got him?
[2:18:08] Speaker 14: Yeah, we got him.
[2:18:09] Speaker 1: Of course, man. You said we got him. You know
[2:18:11] Speaker 1: we got him. Where the fuck you think you going
[2:18:13] Speaker 1: to go? He ain't Brooke Lopez. He ain't that dumb.
[2:18:17] Speaker 1: Who that dumb? Who that dumb? That's how you know
[2:18:19] Speaker 1: he's dumb. He ain't one of those dumb. I'm going
[2:18:22] Speaker 1: to the Clippers. All right. That's it.
[2:18:30] Speaker 4: Boy, you could have been a star over here. You
[2:18:32] Speaker 4: wouldn't be a bitch nigga on the world. What a
[2:18:36] Speaker 4: sister team. He could have been his father with the Lakers.
[2:18:40] Speaker 4: You want to be a bitch player with.
[2:18:42] Speaker 1: The sister team? Didn't he already play for the Lakers
[2:18:44] Speaker 1: already before? Oh, he sure did. Yeah, he already played
[2:18:46] Speaker 1: for the Lakers. Cool, he could have played again. 2017-18 season.
[2:18:49] Speaker 1: He could have played again. Oh, yeah. Yeah, we got
[2:18:55] Speaker 1: rid of him to win a championship. That's why he ain't.
[2:18:57] Speaker 1: We could have brought you back to win a championship
[2:18:59] Speaker 1: is what we just said. Okay, okay.
[2:19:01] Speaker 2: One last piece of Nuggets business before we get to
[2:19:03] Speaker 2: mostly fans. So Nuggets president Josh Kroenke, spoke on how
[2:19:06] Speaker 2: quickly things changed in the NBA last week in a
[2:19:08] Speaker 2: press conference and included an interesting comment about the Joker
[2:19:12] Speaker 2: as well.
[2:19:13] Speaker 16: You know, I think that for us as an organization,
[2:19:16] Speaker 16: going into that second apron is not necessarily something that
[2:19:19] Speaker 16: we're scared of. I think that there are rules around
[2:19:22] Speaker 16: it that we needed to be very careful of with
[2:19:24] Speaker 16: our injury history. The wrong person gets injured and very
[2:19:28] Speaker 16: quickly you're into a scenario that I never want to
[2:19:31] Speaker 16: have to contemplate, and that's trade number 15. And so,
[2:19:35] Speaker 16: you know, we're very conscious of that pushing forward and,
[2:19:39] Speaker 16: you know, providing the resources that we can when the
[2:19:41] Speaker 16: moment arrives. But that second apron, is it a hard cap?
[2:19:45] Speaker 16: I'm not 100% sure, but it's something that teams are
[2:19:48] Speaker 16: obviously very aware of going forward.
[2:19:51] Speaker 2: So trading number 15, number 15 being Nikola Jokic. Immediately
[2:19:56] Speaker 2: after Kroenke's comments, the Nuggets went into damage control. saying,
[2:20:01] Speaker 2: this is from Ben Tender, their executive VP of basketball ops,
[2:20:04] Speaker 2: recently promoted, said, I would just urge you to listen
[2:20:06] Speaker 2: to the quote again because if you listen to it,
[2:20:08] Speaker 2: you realize Josh didn't say that and we would never
[2:20:12] Speaker 2: trade Nikola. But should Josh Cronk regret his choice of
[2:20:16] Speaker 2: words talking about the second apron saying if the wrong
[2:20:19] Speaker 2: player goes down, we might have to ponder getting rid
[2:20:22] Speaker 2: of their franchise player, Nikola Jokic?
[2:20:25] Speaker 1: He's telling you the business of basketball? I mean, it's.
[2:20:29] Speaker 4: Just true If somebody got hurt and it actually stops
[2:20:33] Speaker 4: their chances of winning, then you're talking about rebuild, and
[2:20:36] Speaker 4: then from there you've got to offload assets. And if
[2:20:41] Speaker 4: your biggest asset or your two biggest assets is Murray
[2:20:44] Speaker 4: and Jokic, and if Murray gets hurt, basically, if Murray
[2:20:48] Speaker 4: gets hurt and it kind of messes up the rest
[2:20:50] Speaker 4: of this team.
[2:20:52] Speaker 1: Then we are forced to try to get under this team.
[2:20:56] Speaker 1: I mean, business-wise, I mean, we understand that part of
[2:21:00] Speaker 1: it where, you know, we're just watching it with, you know, Boston. Mm-hmm. Right?
[2:21:07] Speaker 1: Sitting there like, oh, shit, fire sale. Hey, man, all right, then.
[2:21:10] Speaker 1: Fire sale. Who wants something? Tell me what you want.
[2:21:13] Speaker 1: Put a bid in. Everybody on the market. Put a
[2:21:16] Speaker 1: bid in. Put a bid in. Well, it's not weird.
[2:21:20] Speaker 7: All these owners are selling, and then all these teams
[2:21:22] Speaker 7: are making these crazy moves.
[2:21:26] Speaker 1: All at once. Shaking the shit up. We ain't never
[2:21:31] Speaker 1: seen it shooken up like this because Joker going to
[2:21:33] Speaker 1: the Lakers. No. Joker going to the Lakers? Two years, maybe. Oh, 27.
[2:21:40] Speaker 1: We're going to play with Luka. Huh? Joker going to
[2:21:44] Speaker 1: play with Luka for sure. Three years from now. Gianna's
[2:21:49] Speaker 1: going to go to State. I think that. With who though?
[2:21:52] Speaker 1: Seth only got Two more years. He'll extend it for
[2:21:57] Speaker 1: two more years. He'll extend it to four with Giannis.
[2:21:59] Speaker 1: Why do that? You would go to New York before
[2:22:02] Speaker 1: you go to Golden State to play with Steph? Steph
[2:22:03] Speaker 1: would be crazy. But Steph is what, two more years?
[2:22:06] Speaker 1: Four more years. Yeah. The way he playing? Giannis put
[2:22:09] Speaker 1: two more years on there. I just raising the price.
[2:22:14] Speaker 1: But just think about the shakeup. Think about how that
[2:22:16] Speaker 1: shakes up. Does Jimmy stay? Yes. So you keep Jimmy
[2:22:19] Speaker 1: and you keep Draymond? No. No.
[2:22:28] Speaker 4: I mean, you got to say, I mean, if you
[2:22:32] Speaker 4: in the business of making money, you got to sell
[2:22:34] Speaker 4: because this is most of these guys that like Jenny, right?
[2:22:38] Speaker 1: In reality, she's probably the richest owner now from the
[2:22:43] Speaker 1: original cruise. Because most of those guys were selling for
[2:22:46] Speaker 1: $ 300 million, $ 400 million, $ 500 million. You got to think
[2:22:50] Speaker 1: about Bob Johnson them. Before them, that crew.
[2:22:55] Speaker 4: She is the head honcho of this. When you're talking
[2:22:57] Speaker 4: about these guys spending $ 4, $ 5.
[2:23:00] Speaker 8: $ 6, $ 10 billion, they can't sell for a minute. Because
[2:23:09] Speaker 8: their margin is too high. So now these guys got
[2:23:16] Speaker 8: to all stick.
[2:23:16] Speaker 4: In for the next 15, 20 years until that price
[2:23:19] Speaker 4: goes up. So now from there, you got to feed
[2:23:22] Speaker 4: the beast. There's only one beast you can feed to
[2:23:24] Speaker 4: get everybody's profit up. There's nothing you can do in
[2:23:27] Speaker 4: Milwaukee to raise the price of everybody.
[2:23:31] Speaker 1: It's only the Lakers. Once the Lakers high, everybody just,
[2:23:36] Speaker 1: you know what I mean? It's an upward effect.
[2:23:38] Speaker 6: So the Lakers being able to be the the richest
[2:23:44] Speaker 6: out of the original crew, right? So all the original.
[2:23:48] Speaker 6: Now you got these new owners buying in that don't
[2:23:52] Speaker 6: know nothing about the original crew, the culture of the
[2:23:54] Speaker 6: original crew, which is how the NBA moves, right? And
[2:24:00] Speaker 6: now we've been shaking up. Dallas shake up. Certain things
[2:24:03] Speaker 6: have turned shit on its head. Like, we ain't never
[2:24:06] Speaker 6: seen this. Y'all ain't communicating. Y'all doing shit like this.
[2:24:10] Speaker 6: because these outside entities are coming in with no knowledge
[2:24:13] Speaker 6: of how the shit operates. So now the players have
[2:24:15] Speaker 6: to adjust.
[2:24:16] Speaker 1: Fans got to adjust. That's what I'm saying about the shakeup.
[2:24:19] Speaker 6: Like, this is a whole reset because you're seeing shit
[2:24:22] Speaker 6: happen and we.
[2:24:23] Speaker 1: Ain't never, this ain't how we do business. This is
[2:24:26] Speaker 1: how we do business. Before. No, this is how we
[2:24:28] Speaker 1: do business. It's just at money time. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[2:24:32] Speaker 1: When they got Magic Johnson, won, then got Worthy, won,
[2:24:37] Speaker 1: that right there is setting standards.
[2:24:39] Speaker 6: I'm not talking about the Lakers. I'm talking about individual.
[2:24:41] Speaker 6: I'm talking about just all together, NBA business. I'm talking
[2:24:44] Speaker 6: about we never seen a player like Dane get waived.
[2:24:48] Speaker 1: Because they... We just never seen certain things.
[2:24:51] Speaker 6: We never seen a player like Luka outside of a
[2:24:53] Speaker 6: Shaq trade like that.
[2:24:56] Speaker 1: To be like, y'all would do that? What? And no explanation,
[2:25:00] Speaker 1: no clear understanding.
[2:25:02] Speaker 2: So these shakeups are happening because the owners are coming
[2:25:05] Speaker 2: in and don't give a fuck.
[2:25:07] Speaker 1: There's new owners and it's new.
[2:25:08] Speaker 4: No, they know because to get into this business, the
[2:25:13] Speaker 4: only way you can make money is if the lead
[2:25:16] Speaker 4: dog leads, right? If something happens to, like, if the
[2:25:20] Speaker 4: number one franchise is, let's say, New York Knicks and Lakers.
[2:25:26] Speaker 4: If Lakers did a dumb deal.
[2:25:28] Speaker 1: And sold for $ 5 billion, everybody's worth has to drop. Naturally.
[2:25:37] Speaker 4: So if you're Dallas and you're worth $ 4.
[2:25:41] Speaker 1: Billion and you give Luka up and they sell for,
[2:25:45] Speaker 1: let's say, $ 10.
[2:25:46] Speaker 4: Billion, you automatically are worth $ 5.
[2:25:50] Speaker 1: To $ 6 billion. So that deal.
[2:25:53] Speaker 4: made you money, just like it made the Bucks money,
[2:25:56] Speaker 4: just like it made Memphis. Everything trickles up. So worst-case scenario,
[2:26:02] Speaker 4: if you want to make money, send your asset, God
[2:26:05] Speaker 4: damn it, to the Lakers.
[2:26:07] Speaker 1: So the Nets. If we can get the Lakers to.
[2:26:09] Speaker 4: Worth $ 20 billion, everybody's trickling up.
[2:26:12] Speaker 1: That's just.
[2:26:13] Speaker 6: So when the Nets took over, I can't remember the
[2:26:16] Speaker 6: dude's name, when he went and got Paul Pierce— KG
[2:26:19] Speaker 6: and all, they had all that money. How did that
[2:26:22] Speaker 6: pan out for this new owner that came in? It's
[2:26:24] Speaker 6: a fool's goal. He thought you'd just go out here
[2:26:26] Speaker 6: and pay for a championship. Thought he was going to
[2:26:29] Speaker 6: copy the model. Then you got another owner that tried
[2:26:32] Speaker 6: to do the same thing with the Clippers. You're just
[2:26:35] Speaker 6: going to bring in here and get all this money
[2:26:37] Speaker 6: and pay for all these players. I'm going to buy
[2:26:38] Speaker 6: a championship.
[2:26:39] Speaker 1: No, you're not. That's not how it works. You try.
[2:26:42] Speaker 1: You try. That's all you can ask for. It becomes repetitive.
[2:26:47] Speaker 6: Because the owners are looking at the model like, just
[2:26:50] Speaker 6: go get a bunch of big players. And like he's saying,
[2:26:53] Speaker 6: the conversion on paper, we making money on paper, but
[2:26:56] Speaker 6: it just looks like a failed mission in reality.
[2:26:59] Speaker 1: It's a failed mission for sure.
[2:27:00] Speaker 6: So that's what I'm saying about fucking up the whole
[2:27:02] Speaker 6: shit with the outside coming in. They're changing the landscape
[2:27:06] Speaker 6: of how.
[2:27:06] Speaker 1: Business is done.
[2:27:07] Speaker 6: So everybody's looking at trades being made.
[2:27:09] Speaker 1: Everything is fucked up.
[2:27:11] Speaker 6: There ain't no consistency because they come in trying to
[2:27:14] Speaker 6: buy it out.
[2:27:15] Speaker 1: They're trying to buy championships. That's what I mean. Players
[2:27:19] Speaker 1: and what's the name? Who's the last old owner? 13, 2013.
[2:27:27] Speaker 1: Is there an original owner still? Probably Blazers. Because Cuban sold. No.
[2:27:34] Speaker 1: What you sell for? But isn't that, that's not family
[2:27:37] Speaker 1: still in it? I think the buses. Orlando, right? Cronkies.
[2:27:41] Speaker 1: Probably the buses. Harrison. Herb Simon. Mickey Harrison. Miami. Mickey, Miami. Okay,
[2:27:47] Speaker 1: so Mickey. Oh, and New York. Dolan. Dolan. He ain't
[2:27:51] Speaker 1: never going to sell. I mean, he will probably, but
[2:27:53] Speaker 1: just when it gets to like $ 20, 000, 000, 000. Okay. Herb Simon. Yeah,
[2:27:58] Speaker 1: Herb Simon.
[2:27:58] Speaker 4: Yeah, see, so guys like that, like, if he's going
[2:28:02] Speaker 4: to sell, he's going to sell within the next two
[2:28:04] Speaker 4: years because that franchise is worth how many billion?
[2:28:08] Speaker 1: Let me see that.
[2:28:09] Speaker 2: Five, two, three, four. Probably like three to four. Three
[2:28:12] Speaker 2: point six. Currently valued at three point six billion. Three
[2:28:15] Speaker 2: point six billion. He could probably get four point five
[2:28:17] Speaker 2: right now. We need to buy that motherfucker.
[2:28:20] Speaker 1: Oh, he was the, they bought that motherfucker. Late, like,
[2:28:22] Speaker 1: so he bought it for about less than $ 20 million? Yeah,
[2:28:25] Speaker 1: I didn't buy it. Yeah, it was like $ 11. So
[2:28:27] Speaker 1: to get in sports now? You need head-fudge money. I
[2:28:31] Speaker 1: think about the faces for like $ 11 million or something. 1983.
[2:28:33] Speaker 1: $ 11 million. In 1983. No, no, no. 83. So that's
[2:28:34] Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So the Busters and all of them,
[2:28:36] Speaker 1: they're becoming billionaires because that was their business then. Basketball
[2:28:38] Speaker 1: was their main business back then. So this is their
[2:28:39] Speaker 1: sellout making all this profit.
[2:28:58] Speaker 2: But the game of basketball is being abandoned from the
[2:29:01] Speaker 2: executive standpoint. Because the information is not being passed along
[2:29:04] Speaker 2: to these new guys.
[2:29:06] Speaker 6: Like, this is how we do business. They running it
[2:29:08] Speaker 6: like a corporate business. Who, this one?
[2:29:10] Speaker 1: The new owners. The new owners are operating like a C-level.
[2:29:14] Speaker 1: They're running it more like, if you think about the
[2:29:17] Speaker 1: old history and now. The ones that's buying now are
[2:29:20] Speaker 1: winning faster than way back when.
[2:29:23] Speaker 4: Back then, it was business. These guys are buying. They're
[2:29:26] Speaker 4: trying to buy championships. It seems like these are more
[2:29:29] Speaker 4: fans coming in that actually somewhat like basketball.
[2:29:33] Speaker 2: But they don't know what to buy. They're trying to
[2:29:34] Speaker 2: buy the championships, but they don't know what it takes
[2:29:36] Speaker 2: to buy it. They're just throwing money out there. They're like,
[2:29:39] Speaker 2: let's go get this. Let's go get this. Fuck the
[2:29:41] Speaker 2: luxury tax.
[2:29:42] Speaker 1: Let's go get this. Overpay him. What are we doing?
[2:29:45] Speaker 6: You look back and you're like, we just threw shit
[2:29:47] Speaker 6: at the wall, hoping it'd stick. And you know shit
[2:29:51] Speaker 6: don't do nothing but stink. At least it was like,
[2:29:54] Speaker 6: Clippers are, you know, shit. If it would have worked out,
[2:29:57] Speaker 6: if they would have helped.
[2:29:58] Speaker 1: Did you say if?
[2:30:00] Speaker 7: I'm saying it could have worked out. They just won
[2:30:02] Speaker 7: a championship before he signed. He was in Toronto, then
[2:30:07] Speaker 7: signed here. I would have did the same thing if
[2:30:09] Speaker 7: I had a chance to sign Kawhi.
[2:30:10] Speaker 1: Mm-hmm. What about Paul George? Same. Paul George was an
[2:30:14] Speaker 1: MVP candidate that year. And then James Harden. I would
[2:30:16] Speaker 1: have did the same thing with him. And then James Harden.
[2:30:20] Speaker 1: Top 75. Got him on pennies on the dollar. Got
[2:30:22] Speaker 1: him taking pay cuts. How did that work out?
[2:30:24] Speaker 2: Only one person wins. Answer my question. Only one person wins.
[2:30:28] Speaker 2: Just tell me how did it work out. It was
[2:30:30] Speaker 2: game seven against Denver.
[2:30:32] Speaker 1: Huh? Game seven against Denver. How did it work out, though?
[2:30:35] Speaker 1: So they still got James. So what? What did James sign? Two-year,
[2:30:37] Speaker 1: $ 80 million? What else? Can you get James to work? No,
[2:30:40] Speaker 1: I just want to know how did it work out?
[2:30:44] Speaker 1: Did it work out? It worked out. It worked out?
[2:30:45] Speaker 1: Made it to the playoffs. Did they win? On this couch,
[2:30:49] Speaker 1: it ain't about winning. Okay. So you know where you're at.
[2:30:52] Speaker 1: It ain't about winning no more, I thought. Rings don't matter.
[2:30:55] Speaker 1: Rings don't matter, remember? My bad. You're just trying to
[2:31:08] Speaker 1: figure out how many owners that came in buying. Because
[2:31:14] Speaker 1: I know Bucks, Golden State. Who's fucking up in Philly?
[2:31:17] Speaker 1: Who was that owner? Dallas. So the new owners in
[2:31:20] Speaker 1: the Golden State, they won right after they came in? Yeah.
[2:31:23] Speaker 1: Who was that? What was the name of the family?
[2:31:26] Speaker 1: The Warriors owners. Laker. Yeah, they won two championships, right?
[2:31:31] Speaker 1: As soon as they came in. Yeah. Let me see.
[2:31:35] Speaker 1: That'd be dope. So the Bucks, too? Bucks, too? Ownership
[2:31:37] Speaker 1: came in and won right away? Yeah. Lakers wanted to
[2:31:39] Speaker 1: come in and win. Did you say they just changed ownership?
[2:31:43] Speaker 1: It's three different ownerships. They have a new one now.
[2:31:45] Speaker 5: So I think Mark sold his. So he sold after
[2:31:47] Speaker 5: three years? Yeah, after he won the championship, he got out.
[2:31:50] Speaker 1: Oh, shit. And quickly. Yeah, quickly.
[2:31:53] Speaker 5: That's why I said they have three new ownerships. So
[2:31:56] Speaker 5: now this new owner, he's taking over. Then they got
[2:31:58] Speaker 5: another owner that takes over three years.
[2:32:01] Speaker 1: That's why the teams.
[2:32:02] Speaker 2: But they still own it, right, but they switch who
[2:32:04] Speaker 2: has the control base, or they did previously until I
[2:32:06] Speaker 2: think Haslam came in.
[2:32:07] Speaker 1: Interesting. I don't know how it's breaking down now, but.
[2:32:10] Speaker 5: I think that's where it fucks up, too, because you
[2:32:13] Speaker 5: have three different.
[2:32:14] Speaker 1: Owners, so... The game is the game. Wait, so they
[2:32:17] Speaker 1: switch who got control over the team? Yeah, every three years. Yeah,
[2:32:20] Speaker 1: that's what they did previously, but one of them sold
[2:32:22] Speaker 1: their stake to Haslam. Mark, right?
[2:32:24] Speaker 16: Yeah.
[2:32:24] Speaker 1: So there's the Warriors, the Bucs.
[2:32:27] Speaker 6: Denver had the Cronkies for a while.
[2:32:30] Speaker 1: I mean, how many other young....
[2:32:33] Speaker 6: I don't think they're making the greatest decisions. I just
[2:32:35] Speaker 6: think they're blind, throwing shit at nothing, just being corporate.
[2:32:41] Speaker 2: Let's move on to Mostly Fans, presented by Underdog. Download
[2:32:46] Speaker 2: the Underdog app, use promo code GIL, get up to

[2:32:56] Speaker 1: Ismacked22. Besides the Rockets, who has improved the most this offseason?
[2:33:03] Speaker 7: You just say that, right?
[2:33:10] Speaker 1: I didn't even say Cavs. George said the Cavs. Cavs.
[2:33:12] Speaker 1: They got Lonzo Ball. They got Lonzo. No, I'm just saying,
[2:33:17] Speaker 1: that's it. That's a big gig. Jello Ball's brother. What
[2:33:22] Speaker 1: the fuck? I'm going to swear. But Denver just got, what,
[2:33:26] Speaker 1: how many more pieces? A lot. Yeah. Lakers just got
[2:33:29] Speaker 1: two new pieces. Mm. Three. Mm. It ain't been announced yet, though,
[2:33:33] Speaker 1: so you got to wait until it's announced. Dallas? Dallas?
[2:33:37] Speaker 1: I thought we just said Dallas. You honest? Because they
[2:33:42] Speaker 1: said Houston first, so besides Houston. Dallas, right? They said Dallas.
[2:33:48] Speaker 1: The Hawks don't slip. Orlando. Orlando. Oh, Knicks. Knicks. Jordan Clarkson. Yeah,
[2:33:55] Speaker 1: Clarkson and they do that dunk on LeBron. Gershon Ubaseli. Yeah.
[2:34:01] Speaker 1: All right. I don't know his name.
[2:34:09] Speaker 2: Well, as you can see, we have the 4th of
[2:34:11] Speaker 2: July decorations here in Gil's Arena presented by Underdog. We'll
[2:34:15] Speaker 2: be off the next couple days getting some much needed rest,
[2:34:17] Speaker 2: celebrating with our families, taking time during this holiday to reflect,
[2:34:21] Speaker 2: to also see if the Lakers make any more moves
[2:34:24] Speaker 2: to give us more confidence coming back. But we will
[2:34:26] Speaker 2: be back in the arena next Monday. So, we'll be
[2:34:30] Speaker 2: missing the next few days. Don't show up on the
[2:34:32] Speaker 2: YouTube channel and get all pissed off. Yo, what's up
[2:34:34] Speaker 2: with them ranking Kaitlyn Clark nine among guards, though?
[2:34:37] Speaker 1: That is a level of hate that Trey Young has seen. Facts.
[2:34:43] Speaker 1: Player ranking?
[2:34:48] Speaker 2: Did he believe with the... He ranked her what? Players
[2:34:50] Speaker 2: ranked Kaitlyn Clark the ninth best guard.
[2:34:54] Speaker 1: In the WNBA. Ninth? Ninth best player. Guard. Yeah. Guard? Guard.
[2:35:01] Speaker 1: But she started? Oh, media. What did media rank her? Five? Six?
[2:35:06] Speaker 1: Do you already know? Or nine, too? Four. Media ranked
[2:35:10] Speaker 1: her nine, too, right? Uh-uh. As the best guard? No,
[2:35:13] Speaker 1: media had her one, didn't they? Nine? No, fans had one. Three? Three?
[2:35:21] Speaker 1: The elite story on Fox 2. It has Kyler Diggins
[2:35:23] Speaker 1: better than that. Kyler Diggins been hooping them this year. So,
[2:35:26] Speaker 1: Kaylin Clark, fan rank one, media rank three, player rank nine. Okay,
[2:35:31] Speaker 1: so players still in their feelings. Don't hate when Kobe's.
[2:35:38] Speaker 2: It was picking her up full court in the All-Star game,
[2:35:41] Speaker 2: and then you're going to say she's nine.
[2:35:44] Speaker 1: You picking her up full court in the All-Star game.
[2:35:49] Speaker 1: They thought she was sweet. Weird.
[2:35:52] Speaker 2: Why y'all knocking her on the floor and shit? Why
[2:35:54] Speaker 2: y'all doing all this shit? It can't be that good.
[2:35:57] Speaker 1: It's the Kobe. The shoes? The shoes? Oh, yeah, the disrespect. Okay.
[2:36:05] Speaker 1: Did they know, like, what the ratings were? No, that
[2:36:07] Speaker 1: was player.
[2:36:08] Speaker 2: This is player shit. That ain't media. Oh, I thought
[2:36:11] Speaker 2: that said media. Oh, the players got her.
[2:36:14] Speaker 4: Like, do they not know, like, when she was gone,
[2:36:18] Speaker 4: it went back to the year before she was in
[2:36:21] Speaker 4: the league?
[2:36:22] Speaker 1: Yeah. Like, did the view stop? Like, they didn't? What
[2:36:28] Speaker 1: was the all-star voting?
[2:36:29] Speaker 2: She had 1.9, 1.7 million votes. And then the.
[2:36:33] Speaker 1: Rest of them combined had... 700 or some shit. Damn.
[2:36:37] Speaker 1: Is that crazy? I don't know exactly. Her voice was 1.7,
[2:36:44] Speaker 1: I believe.
[2:36:45] Speaker 4: No, what I'm saying is when she wasn't playing, it
[2:36:50] Speaker 4: went back to what it was before. Her by herself,
[2:36:56] Speaker 4: as an all-star voting, she outvoted all.
[2:37:01] Speaker 1: The rest of them combined. But I know that's just
[2:37:05] Speaker 1: her bad, being the hype, her name. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[2:37:08] Speaker 1: That's got nothing to do with games. You know what
[2:37:10] Speaker 1: I'm saying? She's just more popular than anybody.
[2:37:12] Speaker 4: If you take the most popular that everyone's fucking.
[2:37:16] Speaker 1: Aware of, if you take her off the court... you're
[2:37:20] Speaker 1: back to what you guys were. The ratings, all that shit.
[2:37:24] Speaker 4: Why would you even, just enjoy and go on with it?
[2:37:30] Speaker 4: Think about what they was getting paid before they said, Jordan,
[2:37:33] Speaker 4: you're the guy. What do you think Magic and Bird
[2:37:37] Speaker 4: and all them making? Do you know how much Charles
[2:37:39] Speaker 4: Barkley was making his rookie year before the TV deals that.
[2:37:43] Speaker 1: Jordan brung in? Yes. Right? You're making, you know, if
[2:37:50] Speaker 1: you're making $ 40, 000, you know, every five.
[2:37:53] Speaker 4: Months, and now you're making $ 80, 000, and you're making $ 80, 000,
[2:37:57] Speaker 4: just do your job.
[2:37:59] Speaker 2: And vote for the person who got you there. Yeah,
[2:38:01] Speaker 2: that's weird to me.
[2:38:03] Speaker 1: It just makes, no, it just makes no sense. It's
[2:38:06] Speaker 1: the women's shit. All right, keep them happy. Y'all never, shit. Hey,

[2:38:49] Speaker 4: that everybody wants to watch, kids, everybody. Now we can
[2:38:53] Speaker 4: see your talent.
[2:38:54] Speaker 1: What did we say?
[2:38:55] Speaker 4: So if you're sitting there beating it up and doing
[2:38:57] Speaker 4: all this, all y'all become is hated. Like, have y'all
[2:39:00] Speaker 4: not paid attention? No one is caring about anything else.
[2:39:04] Speaker 4: You want to beat on it, they're going to hate
[2:39:06] Speaker 4: on it. You want to talk shit, they're going to
[2:39:07] Speaker 4: hate on it. Like, there comes a point where reality
[2:39:11] Speaker 4: has to kick in. You can keep fighting the fight
[2:39:16] Speaker 4: with women. And you're going to be the odd person
[2:39:19] Speaker 4: that looks bad. That's just how it is.
