So it's one of the things where it's like I said, it's good
for the city. Anytime exposure is good for the city. So let's go
ahead and get into it. No, I'm sorry really quick because I forgot
to do this last week and now gonna do it again. Let's have a
moment of silence for the passing of Willie Mays. Mhm uh. But yeah,
I forgot about Jerry West last week, and I didn't want to come
into this week forgetting about one of the greatest ditting somebody else die too.
It was kind of a depth, you know, the celebrity depths coming through.
It was another sports figure, wasn't it. You sure it was?
I can't think of who it was. Jerry West passed away, Willy Mays
and somebody else. I don't know who. I can't think of it right
now, but I saw it. I know there was a scare of football,
a football scare with Barry Sanders, but he didn't pass away, so
I don't. I don't know who you're referring to. It's probably these for
old time sir. What ca? I don't know, but but yeah,
I just wanted to. Oh, I know it was the Los Angeles Lakers
Franchise's set up a Lakers franchise unless you behind on her rock. The Boston
Soldiers have become the twenty twenty four NBA champions. Uhp it up, true,
holiday man, you don't have that. You don't get doing that here.
I get it. You see him at church all the time. But
he brought us a championship to we gotta to do anything. You mad at
Yeah, because he's going to play for his whole country. But you're gonna
work, but you up for the rival. Oh, Doug Keys come on,
zeke, we we didn't. We didn't recognize Bill Waltson either, because
he just passed away a couple of weeks ago. Oh he did. I
should have did that one along with Jerry West. But Jerry West and Willie
Mays passed this week. That's what he did, and that's is and they
also we don't talk baseball here this show. But also they honored I mean
he Donald too, June teeth Day, but they honored uh, the Negro
League. Yeah, yeah, in Major League Baseball, which is nice.
They played down in Alabama, one of the first stadiums that the Negro League
played in, so that was that was cool. You know, if you
ever have a chance not to throw, I mean, since you're on baseball.
The Milwaukee Brewers do a really dope tribute to the Negro League too.
I think it's in August this year where a lot of the Negro players come
out real real dope. Uh snory to catch out man, Go go check
us out man, because you know, they're trying to rewind. A lot
of people come out, a lot of people be out, but the Negro
League, like players from the Negro League. I know what I'm saying.
You see the Negro players, the Negro League players. Don't be mad because
the Lakers didn't hire a negro. The Lakers is not my team, Dude,
you can keep telling yourself that, just like I don't. Do you
ever see me wear Lakers year? Yes? When yes, In fact,
you were conflicted when the Lakers came about wearing a Lebron Lakers jersey or a
Bucks hat. It was the Anthony Davis jersey, but still a Laker like
step we're talking about you like Luca. Do you own anything Luca or Dallas?
Don't like Luke? Do you own anything Luca or Dallas Maverick No,
okay, I like Stephan the Golden State Warriors. Do I own anything Golden
State? No? I do not. Only thing that's in my Arsenal R
Bucks at Casey. It's okay. You like the Lakers, admit it.
It's okay. We've been doing this four years. Stop lying. You like
the Lakers, It's okay. It has to like another team, so you
have them like another team too. So why do I have to like another
team? Because it's true because beca I'm a fan of the player on the
team. I'm a fan of Golden State Steph Curry, not the Warriors.
And you know that in fact, so it's okay for you. I hated
to be a fan of a player on another team, but it's not okay
for me to be a fan of a player that I just said that,
you know, and I just know when the picks come out, his picks
are usually the Milwaukee Bucks in the Golden State Warriors, and he picks Lebron
whever. You pick the Los Angeles Lakers and the Milwaukee Bucks, and you
sing, don't do that, don't do that, don't do that. Why
do I pick the Lakers? You like them because I like who the Lakers.
It's not the Lakers. You like Lebron James. But like I said,
you know, no, no, don't let them off. He wasn't
care for Cleveland like that when he went back to Cleveland. No, he
wasn't. He was cheering for Lebron. I was always Lebron. He was
for Cleveland before they even went. I agree with you. I agree with
you, Drake when he want the Lakers to win the championship along with the
Bucks, and you you want Golden State to go with the Bucks. Don't
sit here and trying to rope me in with this because I don't be like,
yeah, let's go Dallas in Bucks. I'm like, if the Bucks
had the team to make it, I'm the most the most None, that's
a lie. That's a lie. When it comes to the Bucks, I'm
the most objective out of the three of us America. Y'all been listening to
us for four years. Who's the most objective Bucks fan here? I'm the
most objective basketball player basketball fan here. Yes, you're not. I am
You're not just because I don't want to join the bandwagon of Lucas be growing
all the time. Lucas. Oh, the Luca hot takes have been great
to since lost. I just want to say that they've been great. We
can agree on that, right, Luca hot takes have been great. It
don't change. He's still probably one of the best players. Next season,
I might when they come to Milwaukee, I might wear a shirt that says
overrated Luca, like like a rodeo. They're pointing out the one thing that
we all knew about Luca that's not good, which which means he'll never win
the title, which was his be his defense as far as him being one
of the still top twenty five. Under twenty five, he's still that number
one spot. The one thing, but the one thing I keep seeing everybody
point out that I've been saying since I've seen him play live, is is
whining hurts his team more than anything it does. And the game of basketball.
I don't say about the game of basketball because when you say it hurts
the game of basketball, you got to include all the other people. Tears
ob Lebron, but all of them. But think about it. Is everybody,
and I mean everybody be crying about the referees. Everybody not about.
But it's a difference crying about than crying too. Crying to crying about the
referees. Ker slows up the game. I will say this. Steph probably
doesn't. I will give Steph that. But if you get angry man,
but Lebron does, Lebron is what is in that category? Two of people
will be crying about the referee. Step The one who threw is my garden.
But did you see the file that cast him to throw them out throw?
He got hammered, he got hammerd and didn't apologize to the fan could
be talked. That was if that was Raymond. He had got three games
suspension. Yeah, because Draymond is a consistent character. Come on, man,
were way off script. Come on, but I was gonna say congratulations
throwing to is this congress? You don't like nobody to talk about your player
when it's on him, but let it be Lebron. He's he's on board,
Bro, I packed you up with Lebron. Clam until you get out
of order, live, until you talk about the Michael Jordan's exactly do I
not back up a lot of his Lebron claims line the last two weeks,
whole two weeks. Make me use it in word, not even use it.
You already said it players along with the along with the BA, along
with the Boss, and winning the championship. Jaylen Brown won finals and well
deserved. The obvious two questions that's been going around all week has been can
his team repeat? And it's the beginning and this is the beginning of a
dynasty. I say no to both. That's easy, no to both.
I'll say no to both. I think that this if if the Boston Soldiers
didn't do it this year, I don't know when they would have said that.
I said that, So I'm gonna say that I thought about playing a
clip from Paul Pierce. He was talking about how this everybody been talking about
how Boston been having such a good not a good run, but an easy
run to the NBA finals, and then they didn't play nobody when they went
to the finals. I still agree with that like that, that's still the
narrative. And I think that if they'd have played Nothing Nuggets, they'd have
lost. If they had have played I think if they had played Minnesota they
still would They might have beat Minnesota, but I think it mighty have went
six or seven. But them playing the Dallas Mavericks, I don't think they
beat Minnesota. I think got all the teams that was in the West,
Dallas was the sweetest one. You're lying, You're crazy. Dallas owned Minnesota
own them. How can you say that. I don't want to. I
want to say all for Boston. For Boston, that was the sweetest leg.
Yeah, I agree with that. I'll say this, I'm not gonna
disagree with your take because you're a time to your opinion. But I saw
a meme I shared it in a chat with y'all. Yeah, they said
that Boston had the easiest pathway for the last five champions, and one hundred
and fifty percent agree with that. I think the hardest pathway were the Lakers
because it was the bubble. I mean, obviously we clown about it being
the bubble. But Boston had the easiest pathway the last five years. They
didn't play no superstars, they didn't have to beat they really have to earn
it. They went what what did they say? Sixteen and two, sixteen
and three, this whole place. It was easy for him. Now we're
not gonna take away that they won a title, right, Jalen Brown showed
up, Tatum showed up every other game, Drew Holliday showed up. White
lost the tooth and showed up. So it's still a title. But I
don't have them repeating next year, nor do I have this as a dynasty.
But one thing I do want to add that we can't overlook the Boston
Celtics are now the lone team holding the NBA record for most NBA titles in
a franchise history with eighteen. They just surpassed the Los Angeles Lakers. So
that was the most boring. In finals, I liked the finals, wasn't
it was born, It was very fundamental. It wasn't It wasn't exciting,
it wasn't energetic. It was just like two teams. But it was almost
like a regular season game. Somebody said this, if the Dallas Maverage would
have took them to seven, I think it would have changed it. It
would have changed the projective how you look at it because it was boring because
the Boston Suctons won so dominantly. But if they would have been lost,
let's say it took this game to seven, this has been a whole different
We've been have a whole different conversation. Who is that? I'm sorry?
Who's in the NHL and the n h L. This Canada team took too
they lost three straight. They just won three straight and then tomorrow's the championship
games have and now we think about that that happened to the NBA finals,
we would be having a totally different conversation. But do you think they can
repeat? No, cac hmm. It depends on injuries. You know how
hard it is to repeat. We haven't had a repeat in seven years,
but then a hard one. It's injuries. But teams get BA. They'll
just the thing about Boston, to be honest with you, they'll have injuries.
Is does play a big thing, but they'll have the exact same team.
That'd be exact same. They'll have the exact same team. And this
team is very on paper. They should be at the finals. And and
they've given Brad Stevens. Shout out to Brad because we rode him for getting
promoted after using They've given him the keys to the Kingdom to build like a
Golden State type of roster. They're going to offer Tatum three hundred and fifteen
million dollars five year extension. He'll make sixty three million dollars a year,
highest paid player in the NBA history. Coming up in the next two or
three weeks. They're gonna offer White a max deal for his range as well.
So they're gonna have a big tax bill. But at the end of
the day, if you want to keep the team together to run it back,
you gotta you gotta pay. Horford's coming back. Yeah, everybody's supposed
to come back is coming back. I do, I do, I do
want to say this. I'm not a big fan of this guy, but
if you're Marcus Smart, how you feeling right now? Man? Because he
gave his blood, sweating tears to the Boston Celtics. And remember you called
him Boston's heart and soul, the leader of that team, and he got
traded, got in, didn't play man. But how are you feeling right
now? If you're markt Smart? Oh? I do think about that?
Is like you feel like any other team, it stings anytime. Really to
me, it doesn't stink just because any so y'all saying it doesn't sting,
So it doesn't sting for the for Giannis and them to see Drew Holliday want
a title after they trade them, we an'll think that stings. No,
really, I think it's I think I think that only people who take stuff
like that personal. Who who me? Don't take that personal? Niggas don't
pay me now, I just said it. I mean, I mean,
here's so, I don't take that personal. I don't think it's personal.
But I do I think that it feels good for Drew. Our last repeat
champion was fifteen sixteen war seventeen eighteen Warriors seventeen eighteen words and then, like
you said, but I think about that, is I think that you after
champion, Yes, you feel some type of way if you traded somebody you
like you know y'all see the look on O boy face when they showed him
on TV. Little goofy dude, little head case, just gonna get himself
kicked out. Grant william Grant Williams was at the party. Was at the
party with the little party. I'm sorry. He was back in the in
the locker room, the locker room. But if you see the look on
his face, that's the lane, that's a look what you mean. He
was at the party. He went to the locker room after they were celebrating,
like he was part of it. But the look on his face,
he was like the dude against the wall that nobody wanted to dance with.
He was like the awkward dude here there he was like the awkward man.
It was awkward because why are you doing that? Like why are you even
here? Why don't you even put yourself through that? Why was he there?
I don't know, we don't know. Did he ring? No,
he didn't play one day for Boston, so they don't They don't even owe
him one. So he was just back there to congratulate. But it was
it was a lame move, right me. To me, it was the
lame move because we traded you. We traded you for a reason. And
the fact that you the fact that you showed up to our parade, I
don't I don't know if he's out the parade, not to parade, well,
show up to our sho show to the locker room after the fact,
and all that stuff like that was it was kind of lame to me.
It was lame. And it's also took the focus off of the team.
So here's a former Boston player here, how do you feel. So it's
been sixteen years since the Boston Solciers have won a championship. The last championship
they won, if they was they had Rondo Ray Allen, Paul Pierce,
Kevin Garnett, and Kendrick Parkins. I put who would you who would you
go? Who would you think and be? Which team are you going for?
The twenty fourteen Celtics or the two thousand and eight Sols in a game?
In a game seven, I mean a seven game series? Four celtis
really yes, Sam, Let's not forget how many games I think it could
be done in six. Let's not for get that Kendrick Perkins wasn't a threat
to nobody. Kevin Garnett was near the tail end of his career. That
was his prime. He was near the end of his prime. I think
he played two years more after that. For maybe Brooklyn Paul appears to me
has always been overrated. Always. Ray Allen is Ray Rondo is Rondo,
drew It can hold his own. Dereck White is playing probably the if he
wasn't a starter, he probably went a six minute of the year. The
difference with the above team, the above team might have a slight advantage because
of height. This Boston Celtics roster here is a very small line up in
comparison. So with that being said, let me flip it. I'm have
to say two thousand and eight because Boston doesn't play small ball well and the
twenty eight team was a very big line up in comparison to twenty twenty four.
But I would cheer for twenty twenty four. Lovekesey, Look have you
been listening then at all? Between the two thousand and eight Boston Celtics in
the twenty twenty four Boston Celtics would who the two thousand and eight Okay,
why are you going two thousand and eight? Dude? They got three Hall
of Famers on there, that's facts. Really four technically four really four if
you three already got in three is first ballot? Yeah? Four, I'm
going four. Uh, I'm going two thousand and two. I think uh,
I think that's a stupid question. Anybody who in their right mind should
know that. Hey, you don't think Kendrick Parkers is all of famer Kendrick
perk Kendrick park No, I feel like the difference would be real. Uh,
ray Allen is a ron block them. Yeah, a little too.
He wasn't lygning what he said anyway, KG, KG big ticket and what
would we killing twenty twenty four Boston by himself? Poor zingis if we're just
going off this series, I mean of how these guys are playing right now,
Ray Allen. Paul Pierce. Paul Pierce was a bucket back then.
Whether you like him or not, he was. It's overrated. He wasn't
even the best player on his team. Wasn't even the second best player.
Yes he was, he was not better than KG. Paul Pierce was always
either the first or the second best player on this team. Okay, well
during that series, ray Allen billing him out a lot too. You come
on, man, he was a buck. But you also thought Paul Pier
was better than Dwayne Wade, so said, yeah, I think you were
one to Are you sure it was unanimous freezero? Yeah, okay, well
I take it back. Yeah, two thousand and two thousand and eight.
So I think I'm going seven. I'll go seven just because Jason Tatum Jalen
Brown would be a matchup issue. But other than that, I only think
they would maybe the whole Ray Allen and and Paul Pierce. Yeah, I'm
going there, but not that. Not that the championship is over. The
off season has begun right away. Pia who's a piasque. Piasque yeah,
piasgo h whatever. He signed a four year, one hundred and eighty nine
point five million dollar contract with the Indiana Pacers. Good move, great move
for him and the Pacers because he wouldn't have got that money nowhere else.
And let's not forget Indiana was without their star and they were what Halliburton didn't
play, Indiana was just played. I think he played one game and the
Indiana was a series away from the finals. Indiana was a serious away from
the finals. They were. So they have a good corps over there.
They have a pretty good coach. He got a nice big deal. Uh,
Indiana would just get better, especially if they keep their young core together.
I think it's a great move for both sides. Congratulations on secure in
the back. I low key a little bit think that he got overpaid,
but I know it's the NBA. I low key think he got overpaid a
little bit. Four years, one hundred and eighty nine million. I expect
you to be average, And the thing about said Alcam is he is.
I feel like he's overrated as a player. To be really honest with you,
I don't feel like he's a guy who can who can hold the franchise
together. Because if if that was the case, I think he's not the
leader. They didn't sign them be the leader. I know they didn't sign
him to be the leader, but he has the most experience on that team,
and I feel like there you can't really when Halibert went down, he
should have been averaging thirty year. Yeah that's what I'm like. I feel
like I feel like he big. He's a powerful power for small power power
that he was playing. I think he's playing the four. Think he's playing
the four. But my thing is he's not a force, and so for
you to get almost two hundred million dollars a year, he gotta be a
force. And I just feel like I feel like he took advantage of the
market because it's not the draft is I mean not the draft, but the
rest of the of the free agents. There's not a lot of free agents
out there. It's like, I gotta get this guy. So I think
that that's one of that things played the mark. But I do think it's
a good move for Indiana taking a chance of going back after Paul George to
get him come back home. He's not continued. I'm just saying he was
better he was better off, they were better off, saying, Paul,
what has you got? You? A young point guard? We got you
think they could have waited? Do you think they should have wait? What
has Paul George done to make Indiana want to go after him? He does
more than Pascal. They were a game, they were they were a series
away from the finals. The Clippers got eliminated in the first round, and
Paul George had zero impact, zero impact. Stop it. I don't want
to say that he didn't said for you, he didn't have zero impact.
That's a little overstatement. He didn't have zero impact. I just feel like
he again, he's not a guy who can hold Paul George is probably one
of the best two way players in the league. But is he again a
game changer? Yeah? Yeah, but I feel like, you know what
he's he's thinking of it. Maybe they should have waited. I don't think
that. Like the market out there for Siaka wasn't like I gotta get this
guy. It was like, all right, well he's he's probably gonna resign
with Indiana and then that was gonna be it. It wasn't like name.
His name wasn't out there amongst the other people. But then again, if
you wait too long and then somebody else pick him up, then you you
fresh out of luck because now you're coming back with one less player and Haller
Burton. We don't know what his injury really is. It's true, but
I feel like because it was the end of the season, and you know,
they're not gonna discuss it that much because they're gonna try to play it
out and see how it goes over the summer, and then they're gonna say
somebody lat the beginning of the season, I've been dealing with this because we
found out the coach for the Boston Celtics have been dealing with a I forgot
some injury unsus moniscus chair something like them, Like all right, really,
you walked around the whole stadium after the championship game, ran around. He
didn't run around him, And I'm sorry. In the parade he ran in
the parade, ran like man relaxed. Now, Also, did y'all do
y'all know who Joe Mozola is? Though he used to he was, he
was okay, Yeah, he was just okay, he was. He was
okay as part of Missouri team that put out John wall marm He he put
this foot in the neck. Sure, that's what he did. Yeah,
So I forgot about that, and then I watched the clip the other day
and I seen it. I was like, that's where I knew him from.
I didn't know that until I seen something I heard something about those Oh
okay, that's interesting. I couldn't never hear who these people are. I
knew who he was, but I couldn't remember where I knew him from.
And I never thought the research that he was the one who beat Kentucky that
year. Yeah, I mean because he didn't make it to the league.
I think he was in the G League. Yeah, that was it.
Malik Monk Re signed with the Sacramento Kings for a four year deal for seventy
eight million dollars a year. Now, this guy he got underpaid. He
got underpaid. Talk about see I can getting overpaid. He got underpaid.
I'm thinking he one hundred million dollar man for show. So for him to
get for him to sign four years seventy eight million, that is uh,
that's kind of crazy to me. That's like nineteen point five a year.
I think he got four years seventy eight million. I think he did good.
I think he did good by not overestimating his value. That's about rightfle
I think he's I think he's signed it because he wanted to stay in Sacramento.
I think he signed it because that's that's his market. That's life changing
Moneyard is seventy eight million. Monk is not a twenty five thirty million dollar
year player. He's at least one hundred million. He's not million's not twenty
five million a year. No, ye, he's twenty five a year.
He's in that. He's in that eighteen to twenty range. I think God,
I thank God, Yeah, I did. I've seen that. That's
that's you said he got he'll get underpaid that Christal, young lady. I
love watching you guys. Thank you, CHRISTOPHI to Krystal, I think she
said she was the one who says, like my jack, my hoodie and
where I got it from? But support I don't know why. But anyways,
you is no. But you saying he don't deserve four for four years,
hundred million. No, Draymond Green got four years, one hundred million,
four titles later. I'm sorry. Defensive Player of the Year three times
later? What is what? And soul? The heart and soul of the
Golden State. You're telling me to go, say worries can't continue without him?
Yeah, exactly exactly. They'll be terrible. Everything perfectly fine. He's
the best defensive presence on that team. Stop the distract, shopping, and
he shouldn't have got paid. He's all of those things. But he's still
the best offensive player on that team. He has a high basketball He also
has a high basketball i Q, which allows him to see what Malik Monk
is Number one, this this this much way from starting that number one,
number two. He is the reason why they be beating teams when they beat
teams, he's the reason why they lost in the play in tournament this year
because he didn't play four years and seventy eight million. Now I get it.
That's pretty good. It's that's decent. That's what do you mean?
That's his bracket. I'm taking Malik Monk over Draymond Green every single time they
played two different positions, though they do play two different positions. But if
I'm gonna if I'm gonna have somebody come off on bench, or if I'm
gonna have somebody that's part of my team, it's not gonna be Draymond Green.
It's gonna be Malik Monk. Really, yes, every time Malik,
who don't do that? You know what it is? He said? Right?
The league who talk about some Draymond Green. If Draymond Green, every
time Draymond Green signs a crime track, he should call step Thank you man.
I really appreciate that. How dare you? Just because he's crazy doesn't
mean he didn't contribute to that. I say he didn't contribute, but I'm
saying that the Boston the Golden State worried perfect perfectly fine without Draymond Green.
They'd be perfectly fine without. So he averaged fifteen two and five, and
you want to get him twenty five to thirty million dollars right here? A
six man, sixty six man. I need a six man on anybody roster
though, Yeah, so you want to you want to pay him thirty million
dollars because he's a six man. Bobby Portis don't get twenty five million.
Bobby Porter's barely get twelve. He ain't better than Bobby. He ain't better
than Bobby Is. He's better than Bobby. His stats are better than Bobby's.
Okay, no, really, you said fifteen? Robby's a walking double
double? Is he is? Bobby said? Now Bobby is twelve and seven.
Twelve and seven and he's fifteen and five. It's about balanced out.
Okay, got get me now? All right? That's fine. The Chicago
Bulls traded Alex Caruso to the OKC Thunder for Josh Giddy. I thought this
was a horrible trade. Cub for the Chicago Bulls. I didn't quite get
that. Are they rebuilding? All right? So apparently a couple of things
happened here Josh Giddy. Uh if you if you notice watching in the playoffs.
He was starting at the beginning of the season and towards the end of
the season, right when that scandal happened. Oh yeah, he got dropped.
He got dropped from the starting lineup, and then he was coming off
the bench for the playoffs, like THEO. Didn't it come out that the
people were lying on him, not that people were relying on him. It
was proven, it was The NBA did an investigation and they just let it
go. But that girl, don't just say that, because letting it go
means you are insinuating that he did something. The results were they could not
find any proof or credible sources that he did what he was accused of.
Don't do that. What do you do? I don't know what I just
I don't remember. But I just know that he was dating someone under eighteen
allegedly, right he was day twenty under seventeen. Was it ever proven?
It was proven this this they were together, but they weren't like the parents
dropped it. The parents dropped it. So somebody got paid. Okay,
all right, little little little money up like I said before, and into
the check clears. Huh right, Jay, everybody man out I'm a little
upset at the conditions here. I'm I'm taking you to court. How much
you want to settle for black people be like, I'll cut you outside.
Black people were like, a just cut you outside. You're gonna suit me.
I'm I'm gonna give you something to sue about black people like black people
like I would cut you out. I'm gonna get something to sue about.
Wait a minute, but yeah, out of court right now for twenty bucks,
we're gonna I'm gonna get you. I'm gonna get something to about.
Uh. But yeah, So they dropped the suit. But I thought this
trade was very it was very lopsided. It was time for him to go.
It was so he didn't want to come off the bench. They was
like, hey, yeah, Noddy was like they okay. He was like,
we want to keep you on the roster, but you're coming off the
bench. He was like, no, I ain't feeling that. And so
they they traded him the Chicago Bulls. If you notice, Okay has a
lot of picks for the next what several years, Like, you don't want
no picks, just just give us. Alice Caruso and I think I like
him with the young. Yes, this was a winner for Okay see.
Automatically, this is a great trade for Okay see. But for Chicago,
I thought, this is a horrible trade. And get them some playoff experience
and to get Chicago a young player, and it gets them some like a
defensive president in the back some of that salary they got over there. Okay,
see, so masterful with this. They already talk about sign him to
an extension like four yeah, four years to eighty million. He's one of
the best defensive players in the game. So Caruso can get eighty million for
four years. And it's okay and Malague Monk that should get more than Carusso.
Want to look at caruso numbers. I'm gonna take Monk overr. The
only thing that Carusso has going for him is defense. Remember, you don't
have him for scoring. He does score, he does not score that much.
Cac No, he does not. He's really known for defense. That's
all he's known for. I don't want to Yeah, alers ten three and
three. All right, there, you're gonna answer your question. I don't
know why you don't like Malie Monk, but I ain't say I didn't like
Malik. But I'm saying he's not worth more than twenty He's a twenty million
dollar man. That's why he signed the contract. If more he would have
signed it, he went elsewhere. I think he's signed because he wanted to
stay in Sacramento. Nobody wants to stay in Sacramen. You're not specially to
living Sacramento. That twenty million is like eleven and at the tax is probably
like six Jesus but those But yeah, Alex career after. This is a
horrible trade for Chicago. I don't know what they're doing over there, but
you know, they they they heard it's like to stay. They like to
stay mediocre right at the cusp of things. But what makes me excited about
the trade of Caruso. I think the Bulls are getting ready to enter their
rebuilding phase because all rumors are pointing to the DeMar DeRozan exit. If somebody
wants to pick him up and they will give up the kitchen sink, Damar
DeRozan will not start the season in the Chicago Bulls uniform. I can see
that. I can see that happening. I don't know, I don't I
don't think I think his market isn't as clear as he would like it to
be. But speaking of tomorrow, Rosan other free agents, I'm gonna go
over a list of names a free agents, and I want you to tell
me what do you think this person is gonna go? But started off with
lebron James well common sense. Now that he got JJ, he's gonna resign
the Lakers and it's gonna be probably a two year, one hundred and twenty
one hundred and forty million dollars deal. He's probably gonna get sixty million a
year because he's taken discounts for the Lakers since he won that title with them.
He's taking discounts every year. He's taking like fifty million a year.
Recently he has his first couple of contracts. His last contract was fifty recently
last But he's probably gonna get sixty million a year, if not sixty five.
And they're going to draft little Bronni and they're gonna draft little BRONI when
I tell you this, as much as I told you and I finished,
I told you, I told you no, Well, I blame the college
coach for not taking a job because it wouldn't happen, did it right?
He did right thing because Lebron's gonna Yeah, let me stop. I praise
Rich Paul and Lebron James because they run the n b A like the mafia,
rams fake. I don't want to say no, no, don't,
don't, don't ain't strong army nobody heck they are. You know, if
you don't think Lebron opted out was a strong arm If you don't think what
talk about, let me finishinish you the main one. Lebron might go to
Golden State and signed JJ. I thought that Golden State and Dallas had real
shots, all right, But if the Lake now that they've signed JD,
it's almost guarantee that they're gonna pick Bro j part oft sports. No,
no, so that I don't see Lebron possibly staying the whole time. You
don't think he's gonna resign with short out. Where do you see Lebron James
going? Then you think Dallas are going to State? I think they go
back to Cleveland? Are you on correct? I'm saying bron wants to win
one more before it's all said at the end of the day. Which one
you think is more important? Winning one more or playing with Bronnie I think
for him winning one more, I think playing with Briannie, go to Dallas
and do it well. Number one. Uh, Bronnie only tried out for
three teams. Other teams, he won't even talk to them. That's what
I'm saying, Like, I don't like the way they're doing with this.
Is this is this. The fact that the NBA hasn't hit Lebron and Rich
Paul with a tampering charge is beyond me. This is tampering. One on
one, am I saying that. Anybody said nothing? So I'm going I'm
going with l A. I think he's staying with l A. You think,
just think, what do you think where you think? You think he's
going back to Cleveland. I'm just looking at the top picks, the top
picks for what I think BRONI can go. I mean, any team can
lure in Lebron right now. That's where I'm at with it right now.
A package, I think. But I think that's why bron opted out.
I think bron nobody, Remember, nobody can pay him more than the Lakers.
He's a free agent. He's a free agent, but the Lakers can
still unrestricted. That's true. Listen, even at the end of the day,
I would like to see him that he is a billionaire. That money
he make this year is just going to pay the taxes on the money he
make off of everything else. So, according to a most recent poll by
sports Grid, the top five landing places for Lebron number five the Golden State
Warriors, like I've said before. Number four the Philadelphia seventy six ers.
You're bugging out too. I'm over here. That's why I want to be
settled out of court. Man. All these mosquitoes attacking me down here.
Number three they knew the lawsuit's coming. Number three the New York Knicks.
That's not happening. Number two the Miami Heat that's not happening. And number
one the Cleveland Cavaliers. So look at it like this, those are the
top five landing spots. Do you think Miami Miami has fifteen, the Lakers
have seventeen? Do you think pat Riley and them is fifteen? What pick?
So Miami got the fifteen pick and the Lakers got the seventeenth pick,
do you think by do you think pat Riley is spiteful enough to draft Brownie
at fifteen? Just a little bron back there? No, because remember bron
left him. Yeah, and they wanted him. They wanted him to stay.
They offer him everything to stay. Pat Riley will Well, he don't
care about Austin, he don't care about no superstar, He don't care about
none of that stuff. Will he draft Brownie to be spiteful? Doubt it.
That's a high pick to waste on Bronnie. Bro I'm sorry, but
just think appearing bron with Jimmy. I heard Jimmy's on the market too,
Bro. I heard that Miami's thinking about entertaining deals for jim The only two
teams. Here's the thing, Brinnie, Bronnie tried out for two teams.
Look and this Lakers and the Phoenix Suns. But Bron's not going to Phoenix.
But the other team came there. What do you mean they came?
They came to see him at the NBA Columbine. I'm saying, like he
was Calmbine Combine. Whatever. Right, are you trying to tell us something?
I think? My thing is? Uh? They they they he only
tried out for those teams, and I think it's like two other teams.
But him, he on, he laid wait and he turned and he said
he would not be signing the two way deal. Yeah, so he only
like signing guaranteed. I'm like, you gotta be kidding me with this,
So I oh, I think it was my bean Dallas. But my thing
is that's what we that's what we're playing for. So what happened? If
the Lakers don't draft him at seventeen, then what happens second round? I
think Lebron is uh, hes gonna hit them with He's gonna him in their
pockets. Well that and he's gonna go back to college. No, maybe
maybe because the Lakers next pick into fifty five. Yeah, you think call
still be sitting there? Seventeen to fifty five is a lot somebody not in
this draft class, in this drift class, you think Brian was going You
Brianni going top twenty five in this drive class, you're going top twenty.
What lucky to get second round? They need those two point two points a
game. In this drive class, he's going top twenty. He's going second
round. In this drive class, he's going top going second round. All
right, put your money with your mouth. We'll see next week. I
guarantee you go first round. Draft is this week. It's Wednesday and Thursday.
Alrighty yep, oh Paul, Oh yeah, summer league. I can't
wait to go to the summer League to see Brian. Phoenix got number twenty
two. You think, no, well, Phoenix has nothing, but they
won't. Lebron won't go there. You know, why would he go there?
It's close to LA it's close to Vegas, and I mean real close.
Why would he? Why would I go to an organization that is horrible?
Their roster is horrible, Lebron could Lebron's saving your roster? The days
is over? They over yo, shout out to Angel Reese twenty five point
sixteen rebounds. Paul. The next she won't. The next free agent is
Paul George. She definitely won't. I know the next free agent is Paul.
Her numbers are better than the other one. They're not. They are
they're not. Her numbers are. Her numbers are good, but they're not
better than Kaitlyn. They're not better than Caitlyn's. Okay, what is kaitlyn
numbers? She's been out, mister, he's been putting up double double numbers.
The next free agent is Paul George. So you don't like the w
n B A. I like Paul George is heading to the Philadelphia seventy six
ers. The worst kept secret in America? How you figure that? Did
you see the tampering that Joel Embiid and Paul Pierce did and Paul George did
during the finals. That was tampering. I didn't see it. What was
it was? Jordan? Joel Ebid asked about this team. Obviously he was
tell the whole story. Joel and b and Paul George were together on the
on the panel. Asked Joel Embiid about his team. He was talking about,
we just need one missing piece. He looked over Paul George, over
Paul George. George, he was just like he said, I got you.
He just said, I got you. That's it. He ain't going
to Philly. I got him in Philly. You got him in Philly with
you got him going? I got him saying that l A. He's going
back to l A, the Clippers, Lakers, Clippers. I don't know
though, but I think this summer might shake up somebody. I don't think
it's gonna be him. I can see a shakeup, but it's not gonna
be him. Who do you see shaking up? Then? I think I
think New York is gonna pick up somebody that's gonna make a phenomenal change.
Smart Lebrono go to New York and play in the They he hate the owner,
But New York's a terrible franchise. Why would he go there? And
it's expensive to live and it's cold Los Angeles. Yeah, but Los Angeles
and New York living are different because it's the coast, it's California, it's
the sun is summer year around. New York is really really cold, and
the media capital of the world. Uh, now where he gonna l a
is the freaking is Hollywood. What are you talking about? Yeah, they
don't pick New York. No freaking basketball mecca, the mecca of basketball.
Say yeah, but he's already played with the Lakers. Playing with New York
that means he has to go. Listen, lebron is only going somewhere where
he could continue to build off a legacy. Him going to a new team
does nothing for him other than him saying he played for a team that he
could play with. Bronny, if he stays with the Lakers, he can
continue to break records or add to him, he can he goes back to
Cleveland, he can continue to build from records that he already holds. If
he goes to Miami, he can continue to add to records and the game
records, the team records. I'm saying, but he could become the all
time leading scorer in this place. He can add more to it, is
what I'm saying. He gains nothing by going to a team that he hasn't
been to yet unless he wants to ride out to what Listen, let me
finish. The only way Lebron goes to a team that is not the Lakers
as a team that can guarantee him a title. And since it ain't gonna
be Golden State or maybe Dallas, Lebron is going back to the Lakers.
Number one. How did we even get back to him? He's freaking talking
about Paul Pierres, Paul George. Goodness, Graces. I didn't even say
anything. He was going on the ramp there for a no reason. Stevens.
He wasn't even the one who brought it upon to say. Was what
to say was if he went to New York, be honest with you,
they'd be in the finals and the East is wide open. You did they
want to go to the championship is not wide open. The Boston Celtics have
a alamp on Why open? Sweet Man? Is why open? If if
Lebron James went to New York, first of all, we would get sick
of tone because he hadn't be here with his Lebron James Jersey, Are you
coming back to New York if he goes back town? All right? Every
time every time he come in here, you have something New York Jersey on
so o ky Yeah, you know how he liked the band wagon. Yeah,
it would be No, I'm not mad at him, it would be
that would be him here. If he went to Dallas, there's no telling
what's gonna happen there but him New York butter, Okay, it makes sense
you it don't make sense, You just like because it sound good. It
makes sense. Angel reached twelve point four points per game, ten point eight
rebounds, two point one assists with steals, So she's averaging the double double.
You just had seven straight games at double doubles and then and then Zeke
is right, we gotta give him his his flowers. But now she's only
beating Caitlyn Clark in points. And let's see here point said Kitlin Clark has
only beating her in points and assists. Kaitlyn Clark is sixteen point four points,
played two different positions, but still don't matter, you said. Her
numbers are way better. Better. The worst team in the NBA and what
it called Chicago, not Bro. They've been losing. They got the top
ten pick. They got the both of these teams at top ten PI.
Shout out to both women for holding it down in the NBA. They've been
losing a lot of games this year there at the bottom. I actually watched
w n b A. She didn't make uh all these games. Now,
yeah they are on tam he can hit the lead pass for thirty five bucks.
Next free agent. But yeah, Paul George. To me interesting,
It's very interesting to me because I heard this is the word on the street
is Paul George. He did Paul George. Philadelphia's not interested in Paul Georgian
one. I don't know what they're gonna do. But the thing I just
seen today was Paul George. Free agency started at July first. No,
it starts now, but players are eligible to sign July birth right now.
They can't sign right now. This is a this is a new year.
I mean this is a new root this year where players can sign right up
the NBA Finals ended. So when the NBA Finals ended, it, uh
see, Yacom got signed the next day. That day he was offered,
he was signed. Do you want to silence while you look this up.
Yeah, I'm just I'm not saying you're wrong, but that's never been the
case. This is a new rule each No, see Sayacom wasn't a free
agent, he was extended first of all. Okay, June thirtieth, each
NBA team may begin negotiating with free agent. When is the article? When
was the article? You're right? When was the article? Printers say you're
right? When was the article? I going to tell you? July sixth,
each NBA team may begin signing free agents as a twelve oh one updated
on June fourth, twenty twenty four from the NBA dot Com Say you're right
dre Qualifying offers. Players can submit qualifying offers on June twenty ninth and the
last game of NBA Finals. They can submit qualifying off but those are those
are restricted free agent. They still can't sign, as I say, they
can be extended qualifying offer. I don't have time to be going back and
forth. You're right, Dray, Thank you is no problem ninety four p
Podcasts ninety four. The next free agent is James Harden. I think this
is another one where he stays in LA. I don't know, man,
he's so wishy washy man. I can see him maybe maybe Houston, maybe
Houston, maybe Houston. But here's the thing. What's the market for him?
Who wants him? Who has he been linked to? I think the
thing about New York? Maybe New York. No I got him resigned or
I got him going taking his talents back to Houston. State taxes, bro
don't under listen and they got I hate when people talk about state taxes when
you're talking about millionaires. Millionaires. That's the reason why millionaires love that kind
of stuff. But they've been playing these high taxes their whole life. Well,
I ain't gonna say a whole life, since they've been making millions.
People like James Harden. That does not affect him. I get it.
But they got his favorite wings spot who Wing Loop cac where you got Jay
hard going? And man I heard them wings five Though I cannot wait to
take a trip to the atl I am definitely going to stop and get me
some wangs from Wang Lou's favorite spot. Where's James Harden going? Are you
staying in the liber because don't nobody else want that message? That's what I
said, don't nobody else want that clown. But I can see him going
back to Houston if it's hoping. Who you got him going? I got
him staying in LA. Like I said, I think he doesn't go anywhere.
I think the market isn't really there for him. I think he did
a pretty good in l A, and he likes he's He's from LA,
just like Paul George. That's why I think both of them are gonna stay
there. Uh O G. Why did I know be? I don't even
know me? Oh G. He was in New York. Uh he's a
free agent. I think he goes back to New York for a nice little
pretty penny. I think he'll overestimate his value, and I don't think New
York will actually offer him anything. I think he'll want too much money and
he'll end up signing somewhere else as a role player for a lot less money
than New York will offer him. There's always one that overestimates his value,
and I believe that he is one of those. M hmm case, I
don't know. I'm not sure what you mean you you're not sure? Why
that way? Not sure? Well, what do you got? I have
him staying in New York. I think New York's gonna offer him a pretty
penny because if New York if he uh if he if he, if he
plays in that Indiana series, it changes it. And I think that's why
he was trying to play that last game seven. So that's what I'm going.
That's I'm going with him. That's on him going to State of New
York. I mean, you got him going to New York. I mean
got him staying with New York. He was with New York this past season,
like he ended the season. He got traded at at the at the
break, not that break he got traded. He don't get hurt. I
agree New York wins that series. Yeah, New York win. I totally
agree New York wins that serious if he doesn't get hurt. But is it
worth it because he came in injured. I mean, when you say worth
it, okay, I guess the question is this, Then let's say he
does side well, let me say this, what is his value? Uh?
He is? He about a fifteen tonight million dollars a year player.
And that's that's over estimate. He's still in that maligue unk bracket that twenty
under one hundred, just under one hundred. So what you're saying four oh,
you're saying just under each about per year? Yeah, So what are
you talking about? What twenty twenty eighteen to twenty two in that bracket?
I give that. That's what I see. That's what I see. I
see eighteen twenty two years eighteen this said, let's go but to New York.
Want to put that on their books of somebody who came in hurt,
ended up hurt, and probably gonna be hurt coming into the season. So
you're talking about eighty eight four years, eighty eight, I say four years.
I think that's a lot for him. I say more like, I
say, say four year sixties to sixty eight, fifteen million of years?
What they'll give him? You remember, you are the worst owner. Jalen
Brunson took a structure deals so they can continue to add talent to the team.
They're not gonna pay him all. They're not gonna pay og all.
That kind of money, especially if they have a chance of landing a you're
talking sting free agent. This is what I'll say to that, because people
like Og. And one time I asked on Twitter, WI be going co
crazy for Og? Apparently he plays both sides of the court. He goes
hard, which I've seen in the playoffs. So I was I wasn't one
hundred percent on him, but I get it. Seventeen a year, I'm
going, I'm going, I want to go night and see move. Malik
Monk got nineteen five. You will never control a budget in any of my
companies. Twenty I go twenty twenty a year, let's go four. So
what you want to give him? A Pascal siakam senator And I'm not saying
to that. I'm saying, I'm not saying it. I'm going eighty eight.
I'm going eighty eight four years, that's twenty two, that's twenty two.
He's a star. He played both sides of the court. And like
I said, if you're gonna be if you're gonna be paid twenty two a
twenty plus a million, you gotta be a difference maker. He's a difference
maker, but he's a difference maker. But he scored less than Caruso.
You did. I didn't say his stats said it. I say he played
both ends of the court and he's a difference maker. You just said if
he plays the New York series versus Indiana, they win that series. Did
you did? You now say that? Yeah? But like he ain't worth
that money. So what are you saying? Then? How much? You
giving him? Sixty eight for four years is kind of wild? I give
him. I'll give him four years for a starter, four years for seventeen.
I give him four years seventy seven. Bobby, don't make Bobby,
don't make that. Bobby, don't make that because it's nineteen two. That's
about right. Four years seventy seven. I get that, all right?
He said, like you said, you said the eighteen twenty two. Now
Dre Thompson was have a team. What has he done? What has he
done so great? What difference has he made? Even when he played for
the Knicks. He is no different than a player like a Drake Crowder.
He's like a Jake Crowder for the Knicks. Maybe he's here, maybe he's
nine from nineteen to twenty million a year. You're insane. He's a starter.
He plays both sides of just because he ain't averaging twenty going back.
I don't know what happened. Okay, fuck, I thought that was it
ain't so it is. It is a big uh, DeMar DeRozan is it's
a free agent. I think he stays in Chicago. No, no,
no, no, Damar wants to win the title. His title window is
over. I don't think it's ober. I think Damar, you know what,
no real lem stop, I'm sorry I interrupt you. He stays in
Chicago unless PG signs. If PG signed somewhere else, he's going to the
Clippers. If he is going to LA, he's going back to Chicago.
He's going to l a first time being a free agency, either the Lakers
or the Clippers, or or I give you a wild card, the San
Antonio Spurs. He was already there and he wanted to stay, but they
couldn't reach in the grovement. Uh huh. I got him going to the
Spurs or the Lakers. But I don't think he stays with the Bulls.
I think that the Lakers don't want the Rows and they want Zach Lween Zach
Levine for some reason. Uh. Don't nobody wants Zach. The Lakers do
well. Remember Zach didn't want to go to Boston because they couldn't win a
championship, probably a long time ago. No, it wasn't that just last
year. That wasn't last year. That was it was Philly. Wow.
Where you got him going? Keysy? Did you say the roles? And
he stays in chr gonna get paid? I think he's saying in Chicago too,
Uh? Nick Clason? Nick Clason, Again, I don't think the
market's gonna be great for him, So I'm saying they saying he's a hundred
million dollar man. Nick Claxton from the Brooklyn next mm hmm, God,
I wish I was your height. I played basketball. Just give me tens
on the bench. I give him four years, seventy to seventy five million.
Where's he gonna? Where do you think he's gonna go? It's hard
to say, because I don't he does district me as an attractive free agent.
I think he's going back to uh what's he calling. I think he's
going to uh stay in what's it called it? Brooklyn? I think he's
going to stay in Brooklyn. I think he's going to stay in Brooklyn just
because, I mean, the question is what he's worth. I'm going with
seventy five. Listen to this just released by the NBA. The Boston Celtics
are one of the most dominant teams in NBA history. The Boston Celtics won
their eighteenth title and did it in the most dominant seasons in NBA history.
They held a twenty point lead and fifty of their one hundred and one games.
Only one other team has ever done that, and that is the twenty
seventeen cheat Code Golden State Warriors with Kevin Durans. Now, did you say
all of that because they added because they said some about their Warriors, Yeah,
undermined Boston's title earlier, saying that they did not. We said that
easy pathway. But just as the bosses in it every year, they were
in it last year, they were in the year before last. Yeah,
but both of you all said they don't have nothing coming next year. And
I think that's bogus because y'all was singing Denver. Y'all got to put Denver
in it. They just want the title. You gotta respect the title to
put them in it. Just from that sake, if we talk about if
you talk about Jason Tatum and we talk about Jalen Brown. I hate top
in the league right now, top ten. But if you talk about their
team and the path that they had to the NBA Finals, and we all
say playoffs are different from the season to the playoffs are different because you can
have the best record in the league and lose to an A seed, especially
if you if you come about Lebron James and Golden State Warriors, you talk
about these teams that's barely making the playoffs, they can beat the number one
seed a number two seed. So that's what my thing, that's where I'm
coming from from it. I don't think they'll do the same thing, just
because, like I said, I feel like the East is wide open,
like anybody could come out of the East. Bucks if they make some moves,
we'll get to their l get there in a second. Clay Thompson,
that's the one that everybody's really keeping an eye out. So unfollowed Golden State.
Yep, Golden State offered him a two year deal. I don't know
how much how much for but he wants a three year deal. Tell the
rest of the story. Golden State and Clay have not talked since, and
Golden State has no plans on re engaging talks. Stephen, No, no,
no, that you know. I follow, you know, like the
NBA off season. I paid more attention probably to the off season than all
of it because wo should be dropping out. Wolch has yet to be wrong
on anything. Right, He is yet to be wrong on anything. So
I have Clay. I think Clay wants to catch the bag. I think
he does nothing to prove. I don't think he wants to catch the bag.
I think he just wants some long jeopardy catching the bag, catching a
bag. Uh, He's He's training in the Bahamas right now? Is weird?
I have him? Why why he can't fak just because he don't want
to go Galveleston. Why would you be training in the Bahamas? Why not?
He's rich, He's rich for Greece in the Olympics. He can go
training the Bahamas. Thank you. At least he played for his team all
year. He from the Bahamas. No, I mean, Dre really be
going down for the Golden say Wiris, you can't create the Bahamas, right,
Okay? If I'm Clay Thompson and I'm a betting man, two places.
Hold up's your turn next talking about the Warriors. Here, I see
Orlando, and if Lebron resigns, I see the Los Angeles Lakers. Los
Angeles Lakers ain't resigning nobody. That's one. Number two. Kesey, you
was right, you know right about what? Nothing? Anyways, I see
Golden State getting the mind right in on the resigned class. I don't know,
man, you can't. You can't have they or they know in order
to they keep play, they got to get rid of Wiged or if they
keep Clay, they got get it rid of they gotta get rid of Wigged.
No, you have forty to keep this team somewhat competitive. You need
all three Steph, Clay, Draymond, and the fact that they resigned dray
Mind Green to a four year, one hundred million dollar deal, and y'all
hesitating on Clay. Look, I get it, he has some rough too.
He had a rough three four seasons. But what the is going on
here? How many seasons they ain't season? He was out one completely,
he was he missed another half lay seventeen eighteen, and he hasn't played here.
They won the titles four years, the last four years, twenty four
the last twenty two did he play good? He? Oh he didn't.
He helped him win the title. He helped him win the title. You
know his team? I know? You know, yeah, you see you
see how you know this? This is the thing. You know how you
know known his team. But the reason why Golden State has been successful when
they won it like last year, was because of Door Pool and Andrew Wiggins.
That's why they got paid like they got paid. They were contributors.
They were heavy contributors. And what this Pool doing now we all knew that
was gonna happen. But the point is Clay, don't sign. No,
Draymond Green and not signed Clay give him the three years. He ain't the
Trump at this point, and at this point in Clay's career, he's not
even trying to catch a big bag like that. He's like, I just
want to be here for long step and I understand that y'all sign this clown
for one hundred million. If I'm the Warriors, I'll resign him and I'll
use That's why you in a GM, Jesus, that's why what GM the
worst? I couldn't because you would spend all my money because you are going
there. Hey, yeah, yeah, we good, mister Douglas, are
we good? Yeah? We good? Trade them. No, that's your
boy, Philly exactly. You would be TV sitting right there with him.
Or you will pull it. You will pull a player in. So what
have you done to earn this? Don't you get reviews at work? Don't
you get reviews at work before you get a raised? No, well I
don't get caught. If we do, we'll get a low ball for the
state. So yeah, yeah we do. Listen, we all do.
We are with this? I think that's the players hold hold on hold of
them because you made a statement that's completely not true. All NBA teams have
exit interviews when they are eliminated from the playoffs or they don't make it to
the playoffs. With each player. Yes it does, Yes it does.
Ypy player is not pulled. Every player does an exit interview because players not
pulled into the office and find out, hey, let's do a reviewing you.
Some people find it they got no exit interviews. I'm just saying it.
Drew Holiday found out he got traded through you. Hey you know he
got traded. What you mean you actually got traded? He actually got traded
during the not exactly call him and then wait a minute, and then he
got traded at church in worship. He didn't get called, but it's agent,
but it's agent. Total. They probably have a meeting with him.
Shout out to Drew Holiday for one in that time. We're not show showing
you out. I'm thank you. I'm saying thank you, thank you,
Thank you Holiday. Shout out to Holiday for being a great man of faith,
first and foremost for everything he did in Milwaukee, him and his wife
in the Milwaukee community, everything they're doing in Boston. Okay, hey,
hey, listen, see that at the beginning of the seasons, Drew Holiday.
It's all up. But we are live here. Two way players to
ever play this game, you know, and he has missed tremendously. I'm
glad you feel like that. I'm glad you feel like that. And it's
all love Drew. But I'll say, the first player the NBA history at
the end of the day, first, let me finish before you do it.
Let me finish. He's the first player in NBA history to be traded
and win the title with the same team. He traded to its best,
the best in the first year whatever, and he got the bag again.
He was gonna retire. I want to retire Milwaukee CAE. I think I
got another year or two, and then they traded him. You know,
I'm not gonna do this. I ain't gonna do this because I literally said
last year, I literally said, hey, y'all, do you think we
get Nope, you think we gave no. No, we didn't. But
he still no, we did. But the head of the other things that
happened in the NBA this past week was the Detroit Pistons fire Monty Williams after
one year, leaving fifty leaving five years sixty five million dollar plus on his
contract and it's guaranteed money. Is guaranteed money. What a terrible franchise.
You think Detroit did the right thing. I don't think they did the right
thing, to be honest with you, Frank Manchi Williams was an overrated coach
in the first place. No, Manchi Williams always catched the short end of
the stay. He took Phoenix, he caught. He took Phoenix to the
finals. Okay, he caught Phoenix one time. Okay, he caught Phoenix
one time. He got the with a team full of stars Okay, did
he trade him, No, they picked the Stars over him. They no
hold up, hold up, they traded for Chris Paul, they traded for
over him. I'm just saying they had a roster. Okay, so they
didn't win this year. You bring your running back again. If you look
at that Phoenix team, they were stacked like that. The Lakers didn't go
after him because, like Doc Rivers, Manti Williams as nice as he.
Now, don't get me wrong, I'm gonna say this because I love my
people. Black coaches are heavenly scrutinizing the NBA more than white coaches. They
don't get as many chances as white coaches. But but, but, but
Manti Williams overrated, overrated, quick and hold up, hold up, hold
up, hold up you. That's also remember Detroit signed him at a time
where they offered him and his new wife I believe health insurance or his then
wife health insurance or something like that, and they took good care of him
bringing him in. His team was the worst. Listen, let me finish
and what NBA or NFL has the team with the worst record. What coach
ever survived, whether black, white, green, bloe, or orange Charlotte
Hornets. Who Charlotte Hornets. They didn't have the worst record, they didn't,
but the worst record was almost thirty wins. They were in playing Detroit
was the worst team in the league. They won thirteen games. Did you
see a roster? Name one person he took the job? Name one part
took the job. Name one person took the job. Name one person took
the job. What does that mean? If you offer me a bag,
am I gonna take it? I don't want the bag. Guys are horrible
take the job. I don't want the job because your your team is horrible
the job. My thing is this, you can't blame what we play.
We'll play sixty forty. Coaching is forty time players a sixty. But you
agreed time out. But you agreed with the firing of aj and Griffin though,
But you agree with that he lost the locker room. But he was
still the number one team when they fired him. He was he lost the
locker room? Did he did he not lose the locker room? How am
I contradicting myself? You have a team full of all you have a team
of all star, you have a solid team. You have to you have
two of the greatest players of all time. You have also had topping top
seventy five, but you also have a solid team. Who's a top five
team Detroit not even a top five team, and everybody don't look at Kesey.
That's his response to how Zeke is acting. Let me turn his camera
fit right here? Is that one right there? Do it again? Casey?
Do it again? So America, how you feel about that? Goofy
responded? How that a goofy? Respond because it's Goofy? How that goofy?
Because hen Aura ball. But he's overrated as a coach. How is
he overrated? He's never done anysides talking about somebody overrated that He's never got
the opportunity that Phoenix throws a not even a superstar, a player they thought
was gonna be better. He got fired. They traded him two months later.
If wins O Phoenix with that same roster, guess what, they probably
make it back to the NBA finals, made it to the finals once he's
before then, he had never been out of the first round. He is
an overrated coach and it's okay to say the finals because of Chris Paul in
his his court vision, in his basketball IQ. That's how they got there.
It wasn't Monty. And at the end of the day, like you
said, Monty went over to Detroit with a bunch of noting and they expected
him to make They wanted him to, you know, turn water into wine,
and he ain't Jesus. And he ain't Jesus. So are you saying,
okay, that's want to know this question, it's a tried. So
are you saying he deserved to get fired? Yes? Yes, yes,
at that type of money they offered him. He didn't want to go.
He was no, he was supposed to stay. He was like, I'm
gonna do away for a year. I just want to dedicate my time to
my ailien wife. That's what he's supposed to do. But they was like,
we got the bag for you. Who's gonna turn down the bag?
Like his career is terrible, his basketball career, all right, y'a,
he's trying to turn water and the wine. But he deserve to get fired.
No, But think of it like this. He knew what he was
coming into with the money he was getting, and he and he knew what
their expectations were. So my things, he knew what their intractation were and
he did nothing. He did nothing with the Pelicans, not even not even
not even go not even go five hundred. He didn't do He did nothing
with the Pelicans. They won thirteen one year one. That just shows you
what he did in Phoenix was not all him overrated. Could you should at
least you should least sixty forty sixty forty sixty Okay, so then so they
shl at least won twenty five games. They didn't even break the twenty mark.
Come on, bro, twenty mark. I just know if if if
you can't, if I had, if I have, if my record,
if I look at my right before you say this, if you're showing progress,
then you don't fire. Trait got worse as the season went by.
I'm not saying that their rock their record. I'm not saying their record is
ooh, their record is. Their record is horrible. But like I said
before, you can't even name me two people in the rock and that's and
but but okay, you said the key thing. That's what what was more
important over there in Detroit that he wasn't able to do because they're so young,
you don't even know them. So guess in sixty. He couldn't even
relate to them. It's just so you know, the coach of the Wizards
was Manti Williams is almost fifty years old. That group is nobody is over
twenty two. The coach of the Wizards, they won fifteen games, he
was fired. I'm saying, ain't so we ain't we gonna make it.
But you know again, I do think black coaches have them. Like I
said, I think I think money willn't cut short the factor not ahead roblem
and the and the thing is is won fourteen games sixty. The blame that
the coaches gift for this is just the thing that just irritates me. It's
not that. The problem is if you don't, if you're the last worst
ranked team in the league, you lose your job. It's it's every year
happened. I'm happening to Scott Sky. I'm saying that's not the case.
I'm saying it shouldn't be like that. Yeah, no, you can at
least be competitive, especially if you've been there a year. Okay, around
in a year, because listen, my first year he got but he got
a full summer camp first. But they showed as they were they showed up
and they played. How many games they win twenty years? They were twenty
and sixty, but they showed up to play. They didn't give up,
They didn't give up. You know why their coaches there. You know why
that coach is still there, Dre, because he's also the GM and the
president of the basketball. He's probably one of the greatest coaches ever and when
he there, like whenever you want to leave, you can leave. But
it's only two teams that didn't make the twenty mark. Yes, I understand
that, and both teams got fired both coaches. I understand that. I
mean, if you can make a twenty game mark with with the with the
with pop group one draft pick, you should be a pop group with the
number one draft pick. You shouldn't no bigger than this court, I swear.
Okay, now we got here's the big news. Just rock the rock
the world last week and I told I told you Los Angeles Lakers have hired
JJ Reddig as their next head coach, offered him a four year, eighty
million dollar contrac who cares terrible, terrible news. Everybody everybody was talking about
this all we're doing like this one, this big talk. But you know
what I'm gonna give you prompts. We didn't want to believe it and I
but again, that was the worst kept secret in the NBA. Everybody in
their mom in the back when when they were talking about you co coach.
That came out of the blue the Lakers. Jenny Bush should fire herself.
Look that GM been messing up the Lakers for a long time. I didn't
want to say anything, but then you know what. You know what's making
me upset about it is they're talking about he has the potential to be the
next Steve her Riley. Just listen, just because you're a good commentator doesn't
mean you're gonna have basketball. He's watching it the high basketball watch. So
the Lakers is getting two underachievers added today roster J j Riddick and Bronnie James.
Right, somebody gotta excel one of the two. He's gonna be Bronnie
or either. It's gonna be so when he wins, and they gave him
four years basically saying we know it's gonna suck, so we're gonna take care
of you anyway. JJ. But I mean, who else is it?
That's what I was gonna say, But you could have went after Sam Cassell,
you could have went out for Kenny Atkinson. That's true. But I
just find I thought it was hilarious. You know, but some of them
players don't want that l A job l A l A l A. The
Laker fans wanted Manti Williams. He has experience, experience. I wouldn't have
gave mantyaser, but you don't awarded the Lakers to get the fire. I
would not give seither him. Of one of them got experienced, another one
don't. I don't even care. I just like Lebron James, I don't
care about the Lakers. M hm uh, we'll quote that's the next year.
I just thought it was hilarious. I just think this whole thing is
hilarious. And when they drive, Brian, I'm gonna give you get a
bigger over going into Bucks talk. Doc River wants to change, wants to
want a change or two to core players around Giannison Dame. This may include
moving Brook Lopez. Here are some possible trading package Fizdale could have got a
call. I'm still on his coach in carousel, Sam Cassel, Fizzdale,
Hey, Lebron Jawan Howard Juwan Howard. Now you're just pulling people at you.
But Juwan Howard was a highly respected basketball in Michigan in Michigan and a
highly respected assistant coach with Miami. Don't do it. Don't do that.
You might give it to so but moving on, come on, we already
know somebody got to go. But who do you get for Brook? List
down some names here. I've seen what you have. Okay, I don't
agree with none of them. I thought because Rockets trade was pretty good.
Steven Adams, Stephen you we retired bro ain't. First of all, you're
hurt. He ain't playing season. He got that, he ain't playing,
he got hurt and still he ain't playing in two seasons. Listen, solid
guy, I think. And then you didn't even listed. You didn't even
listen to trade. That's really out there. Who the New Orleans Pelicans trade?
What's the New Orleans Pelicans? Te Brannon Ingram Oh, we talked about
that last week, that that that's that. But I'm just saying you didn't
put that as one of the ones that was that. But that's one of
the ones. Just knows. But Middleton for that word, No, the
deal is is Pat Connorton and Brook and a draft pick for Ingram. They
don't want it because because New Orleans don't want to do for twenty twenty nine,
we got twenty twenty four too, first round round. We traded that.
You think you think Ingram gonna get a first round I think that's why
New Orleans trying to get with him. They don't want to pay him,
so you would have to come off the bench. Though. Why Middleton,
Dame Giannis, where's he gonna fit in? He plays the three Middleton,
So you're saying you're moving Middleton to a power forward. Middleton playsure two.
So you're saying, Dame Middleton brandon Ingram and Brook and whoever else they can
bring in. Brook is going to Brook is But what do you mean Brook
is gone? Are you talking about to get Ingram? Brook will be gone?
Yeah, and you bring another you're bringing another, a young Why I
don't like it? Ingram's injury prone, Giannie is injury prone, Dams injury
prone. That's too much. Injury prone is for me and the start He's
not injury prone? Who's I said? Who's not injury Just live about any
of them? Yeah? You did so? Jannis who now gets non contact
injuries. Is not injury Brown, He's not injury because every times might get
injured injury Brown. He just is Dame injury Brone. Dame's injury. It's
Middleton injury prone. Mil is definitely injury Brown. Is Ingram injury prone?
Randon Ingram? Yes, yeah, I just said that. You said he's
injury prone to Yeah, not injury pron Dame has been injured every year for
the last couple of years. I love body is what he was injured this
year? He was injured last year? Was he injured last year? Was
injured? Injury on not he got injured during the season, which we they
all do non contact injuries though, z that has a lot to do with
everything. No, last year he's on his back. Remember he fell on
his back this year. But my thing is he gets injured during the season,
injury. He was hurt every time the playoff. Time you get injured,
you get the injury prone if you get hurt every time the playoffs.
But everybody do. My thing is when you talk about injuries, fine,
fine, three, I'll give you that. You're right, and I'm not
just saying that to keep you quiet. You're right, he he I'm not.
I'm not. No, I'm not. He definitely is. No,
I'm not. I'm actually gonna give him some props. Yes, Janni's does
get injured because he carries a lot of weight, but still three other injury
prone players surrounding him. It's gonna make him carry more weight. And you're
taking hold up, hold up, hold up, and you're taking our biggest,
our best defensive player on the team. Besides Gianni's my getting rid of
brook Ingram. Don't play D Dame, don't play D Middleton. So who
gotta leave out the court in It's gotta be Brooke or Middleton or both.
So who wants Middleton? I think they're package steels. I think you gotta
take them both together. Man. But the thing about it, the think
about that is or like or like I'm sorry, or like Zee said,
you gotta add Bochap, you gotta give something. Because here's the thing about
bow Chap, even though people don't think he's good. Young players are attractive
to teams who want to build for the future, and bow Chap is probably
the most attractive trade asset that we have outside of our core starting lineup,
who we all agreed that are mostly injury prone and who possibly don't jail that
great together. I just know that this team is This team is a couple
of things I took from this. Number One, we try we were leaning
more towards a defensive threat. I can't say defensive threat, but a defensive
mentality which has got us success in the past. That's number one. Number
Two, he noticed we need more athletic players. I don't want to say
guards or wings, but just players all together. Brook, even though he
is our best defensive player, is really by default because everybody else besides Gioanne
sucks on defense. Then you're talking about getting out of that core. So
if anybody, if we're gonna pick somebody out of the five, it's probably
gonna be Brooke because he's the oldest, and he's the oldest. And on
top of that, the reason why Indiana was killing us and they was running
circles around us because people like Brooke had to stay on the court. But
we couldn't keep on the court because he's so old and he couldn't keep up
with them running. And the Bucks are the oldest team in each Yeah.
So my thing is, like, with all these possible trades that I put
on there. These are young player, young athletic players. That that's what
I took from all of that young athlete players who could get back on defense.
I can teach you some schemes, but you getting back on defense as
a younger thing. It's not a it's not a one of those who were
gonna get because we're not gonna get a superstar. We lucky if we get
an All Star. Brandon Menger is the closest player we can get to an
All Star. We don't even need an All Star. We just need some
solid players. All these guys that I don't even get to the list,
but Bruce Brown, Steven Adams, Weldon Carter Jr. These are Harrison Bars,
terrible volid players, terrible pick Those are solid players. Not for Brook,
Yes they are for Brook. Brook is old. We're lucky to get
some solid players out of it. But Brook can still get you ten to
fifteen rebounds a game. Because he's seven foot it don't matter. We need
that. He can get you. He can get you five blocks a game.
Those players game, they cannot, they can. Steven Adams has been
hurt for two seasons. We don't even know what he's gonna look like now,
besides Steven Adams, Harrison bars, ain't it bro, Bro, he's
a wing. He's a wing. But he's coming off he know he coming
off the bench. I rather somebody who know they coming off the bench brandon
Ingral like I gotta start brand Ingle like, I gotta start. Well,
we got room for him if he comes over. But the bus got work
to do, man, Like I said this this season, this season,
to me, this is a this is a season. This is a plus.
We don't win this year or get to the finals leaves that's not that's
again. You go to the extremes. That's I don't think that's gonna happen.
He just resigned. He just resigned. You need to get rid of
his brother. Cut his brother, trade him. Here we go with that
again. They trade? Hey, you and you and your brother, y'all
good? They don't you know? Do y'all just remember that when he asked,
when y'all be talking to him at church, everybody everything sports is one
thing. I can love you as a brother and the Lord, you know.
But but I talked to him. My name, mama, want the
nas is gone. Everybody everybody you want, But again and again, play
