<v Speaker 2>All right.

18
00:00:45.799 --> 00:00:48.560
<v Speaker 1>We've been talking to Luka Doncic's the last several days.

19
00:00:48.600 --> 00:00:51.200
<v Speaker 1>It's all anybody in the metroplex is really talking about.

20
00:00:51.840 --> 00:00:52.200
<v Speaker 3>And Ben.

21
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:56.079
<v Speaker 1>Today kind of had some extra pain going on because

22
00:00:56.079 --> 00:01:00.000
<v Speaker 1>we actually saw the press conference Luca and Rob Poline.

23
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:03.200
<v Speaker 1>He used to be Kobe Bryant's agent. Now he's the

24
00:01:03.240 --> 00:01:05.879
<v Speaker 1>GM of the Lakers. What did you think you saw

25
00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:07.920
<v Speaker 1>Polinka's look? What'd you think of the look he was

26
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:08.480
<v Speaker 1>throwing down?

27
00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:13.079
<v Speaker 3>Man, there's nothing more la than that guy. I mean, dude,

28
00:01:13.079 --> 00:01:15.560
<v Speaker 3>it was. He came out in a Fonzie jacket that

29
00:01:15.719 --> 00:01:19.200
<v Speaker 3>was super tight. It was unzipped at the bottom end

30
00:01:19.239 --> 00:01:23.200
<v Speaker 3>the top it had some fancy double zipper. Looks like

31
00:01:23.239 --> 00:01:25.959
<v Speaker 3>he was wearing z Caavci's with the bottom of him

32
00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:28.920
<v Speaker 3>rolled up a little bit. He had he always looks

33
00:01:28.959 --> 00:01:33.040
<v Speaker 3>like a kind of a TMU Rob Low. Yeah you know, yeah, yeah, yeah,

34
00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:35.840
<v Speaker 3>he had. He has like not a comb over, but

35
00:01:35.879 --> 00:01:38.519
<v Speaker 3>a comb down happening. It's just it's just he looks

36
00:01:38.519 --> 00:01:39.120
<v Speaker 3>so la.

37
00:01:39.319 --> 00:01:42.000
<v Speaker 1>He's so la, and him and Nico became big buddies

38
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:46.439
<v Speaker 1>through Kobe Bryant, right, he was Kobe's agent. Nico was

39
00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:50.799
<v Speaker 1>doing the deal for Nike, so blah blah blah. So anyways,

40
00:01:51.799 --> 00:01:54.879
<v Speaker 1>they finally did their press conference today and it's funny,

41
00:01:54.920 --> 00:01:58.079
<v Speaker 1>like we do pressers here, well, this one no Maxie

42
00:01:58.120 --> 00:02:01.239
<v Speaker 1>and no Markuith Morris. It's just robcn Lucas sitting on

43
00:02:01.359 --> 00:02:05.760
<v Speaker 1>stools and you saw some of it, Christina, what did

44
00:02:05.840 --> 00:02:07.239
<v Speaker 1>you think of Luca's demeanor?

45
00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:10.159
<v Speaker 4>Well, first off, like Ben just said, that was my

46
00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:12.759
<v Speaker 4>first my I couldn't get my eyes off this tiny

47
00:02:12.840 --> 00:02:15.120
<v Speaker 4>jacket that Plinko was wearing. I was like, why are

48
00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:18.639
<v Speaker 4>you doing that? Anyways, but Luca just looks so sad

49
00:02:18.719 --> 00:02:20.439
<v Speaker 4>and you're gonna hear it in the audio and it

50
00:02:20.479 --> 00:02:21.400
<v Speaker 4>was heartbreaking.

51
00:02:21.479 --> 00:02:22.719
<v Speaker 2>It's just so heartbreaking.

52
00:02:22.879 --> 00:02:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Well, we'll kind of jump around in time here because

53
00:02:25.400 --> 00:02:27.039
<v Speaker 1>I want to start with Luca. And this is the

54
00:02:27.080 --> 00:02:31.080
<v Speaker 1>second clip, Christina, and this is talking about someone asked

55
00:02:31.159 --> 00:02:33.000
<v Speaker 1>him about the last forty eight hours.

56
00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:33.599
<v Speaker 2>Here's Luca.

57
00:02:34.639 --> 00:02:38.680
<v Speaker 5>Well, it was, honestly, it was hard. First, that first

58
00:02:38.759 --> 00:02:42.719
<v Speaker 5>day was really hard. I felt like this last forty

59
00:02:42.759 --> 00:02:46.639
<v Speaker 5>eight hours was one month, Like two days ago was

60
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:50.159
<v Speaker 5>one month ago. So mostly it was really hard. But

61
00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:53.840
<v Speaker 5>every day that I, like today, was much better.

62
00:02:54.319 --> 00:02:54.560
<v Speaker 4>You know.

63
00:02:54.719 --> 00:02:58.599
<v Speaker 5>I'm just very happy to be here for this opportunity.

64
00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:02.280
<v Speaker 5>He's the Lakers. It's one of the best closing history,

65
00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:03.919
<v Speaker 5>so I'm excited to be here.

66
00:03:04.719 --> 00:03:06.280
<v Speaker 2>Does he sound excited.

67
00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:07.560
<v Speaker 4>But that's Luca too though.

68
00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:11.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Yeah, he's got short answers. You know typically, but

69
00:03:11.759 --> 00:03:14.560
<v Speaker 3>and maybe I'm projecting, but he looks sad. He seems

70
00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:18.400
<v Speaker 3>sad and something for us all to remember, this cost

71
00:03:18.479 --> 00:03:20.639
<v Speaker 3>him north of one hundred million dollars, right, yes, one

72
00:03:20.680 --> 00:03:21.240
<v Speaker 3>hundred and ten.

73
00:03:21.199 --> 00:03:23.240
<v Speaker 2>Hundred and sixteen million dollars is the number.

74
00:03:23.240 --> 00:03:27.759
<v Speaker 3>Ice, Okay, one hundred This the Mavericks trading him cost

75
00:03:27.800 --> 00:03:33.159
<v Speaker 3>him one hundred and ten million dollars. And so imagine

76
00:03:33.199 --> 00:03:36.560
<v Speaker 3>how you feel if you lose a bet or you know,

77
00:03:36.879 --> 00:03:42.120
<v Speaker 3>you tell you right like it's this. He's got to

78
00:03:42.199 --> 00:03:45.439
<v Speaker 3>be hurting. He never foresaw this, and he was committed

79
00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:48.919
<v Speaker 3>to being here and was excited about being here, settling roots,

80
00:03:48.960 --> 00:03:51.840
<v Speaker 3>growing a family, getting a house, all those things, and

81
00:03:51.879 --> 00:03:53.879
<v Speaker 3>the rug got ripped out from under him, so to speak.

82
00:03:53.919 --> 00:03:56.879
<v Speaker 3>And so here within forty eight hours he's supposed to

83
00:03:56.879 --> 00:03:59.240
<v Speaker 3>be all enthusiastic and happy. Yeah, I'm so happy to

84
00:03:59.319 --> 00:04:03.000
<v Speaker 3>be a Laker. Forty eight hours ago, there was no

85
00:04:03.159 --> 00:04:05.479
<v Speaker 3>thought except hey, I hope I have a statue next

86
00:04:05.479 --> 00:04:06.400
<v Speaker 3>to Dirk. Right.

87
00:04:06.719 --> 00:04:10.960
<v Speaker 1>It's tough, and so now I'll take responsibility for this.

88
00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:14.439
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna reopen the wounds. Christina.

89
00:04:14.479 --> 00:04:17.000
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna play the first clip of the press conference

90
00:04:17.000 --> 00:04:18.279
<v Speaker 1>here it's the first one I had you pull. And

91
00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:23.720
<v Speaker 1>this is Rob Polinka describing basically what you Maverick fans

92
00:04:23.800 --> 00:04:24.560
<v Speaker 1>no longer have.

93
00:04:25.720 --> 00:04:30.720
<v Speaker 6>Luka Doncic joining forces with the Los Angeles Lakers is

94
00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:36.319
<v Speaker 6>a seismic event in NBA history. And the reason I

95
00:04:36.399 --> 00:04:39.959
<v Speaker 6>say that is because we have a twenty five year

96
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:44.560
<v Speaker 6>old global superstar that's gonna get on the stage of

97
00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:49.480
<v Speaker 6>the most popular and influential basketball brand on the globe.

98
00:04:50.040 --> 00:04:52.879
<v Speaker 6>And I think when those two powerful forces come together,

99
00:04:54.079 --> 00:04:58.399
<v Speaker 6>it brings basketball joy to the world because that's how

100
00:04:58.480 --> 00:05:01.759
<v Speaker 6>Luca plays. He plays with joy. And if you think

101
00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:07.040
<v Speaker 6>about kids in Barcelona, or kids in Buenos Aires, or

102
00:05:07.839 --> 00:05:13.240
<v Speaker 6>children in Shanghai or Sydney, they're gonna be wearing a

103
00:05:13.360 --> 00:05:18.000
<v Speaker 6>number seventy seven. Luka Doncic Lakers jersey.

104
00:05:18.079 --> 00:05:20.319
<v Speaker 3>Hard to hear, isn't it. It's so hard to hear.

105
00:05:20.519 --> 00:05:23.000
<v Speaker 3>And you only got one of their first round pigs.

106
00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:26.040
<v Speaker 2>You got ad so y'all. Remember when I went to Italy,

107
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:28.240
<v Speaker 2>what three years ago? Yeah, you want to stop bragging

108
00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:28.560
<v Speaker 2>about it.

109
00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:31.279
<v Speaker 4>We ran into this little kid who was playing basketball,

110
00:05:31.319 --> 00:05:33.839
<v Speaker 4>you know, we shot some hoops with him. The one

111
00:05:34.079 --> 00:05:38.079
<v Speaker 4>NBA player he knew. Luka Doncic of Cours and so

112
00:05:38.120 --> 00:05:39.360
<v Speaker 4>we sent him some MAVs gear.

113
00:05:39.800 --> 00:05:42.399
<v Speaker 2>How was Soroy's jumper that day?

114
00:05:43.439 --> 00:05:46.199
<v Speaker 4>Actually funny, Mike was sick that day, but Cash was out.

115
00:05:46.040 --> 00:05:48.600
<v Speaker 2>With us, okay, so not a flue game for Mike.

116
00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:52.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, this is all so traumatic and hurtful and painful.

117
00:05:52.680 --> 00:05:55.439
<v Speaker 3>I hate it, Like each day is worse. I can't

118
00:05:55.480 --> 00:05:57.519
<v Speaker 3>you know. I've been hoping, hey, I'll start to feel

119
00:05:57.519 --> 00:06:01.079
<v Speaker 3>a little bit better. You know. WFA having Luca Day

120
00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:03.279
<v Speaker 3>on Thursday, and they reached out to see if we

121
00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:05.480
<v Speaker 3>wanted to do something. I'm like, man, honestly, I don't

122
00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:08.040
<v Speaker 3>know of I'll be in a good place to do that.

123
00:06:08.839 --> 00:06:12.079
<v Speaker 3>I'm grieving right like we all are grieving right now.

124
00:06:12.199 --> 00:06:13.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's tough.

125
00:06:13.279 --> 00:06:15.839
<v Speaker 3>And seeing the Lakers parade him out, go, can you

126
00:06:15.879 --> 00:06:19.560
<v Speaker 3>believe we just got a twenty five year old global icon. Ha,

127
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:22.560
<v Speaker 3>we're the Lakers. We just got like you can't get

128
00:06:22.600 --> 00:06:24.240
<v Speaker 3>these guys, we just got one.

129
00:06:24.519 --> 00:06:25.279
<v Speaker 2>It's painful.

130
00:06:26.399 --> 00:06:26.720
<v Speaker 7>Now.

131
00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:29.879
<v Speaker 2>This was pretty amazing to me. This is the third clip.

132
00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:33.040
<v Speaker 1>Christina rob Polinka is talking about how it all went down,

133
00:06:33.839 --> 00:06:36.360
<v Speaker 1>and it was real interesting to me to watch Luca

134
00:06:36.399 --> 00:06:39.279
<v Speaker 1>and his body language as Robs telling this story of

135
00:06:39.319 --> 00:06:40.360
<v Speaker 1>his personal glory.

136
00:06:40.800 --> 00:06:41.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

137
00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:44.920
<v Speaker 6>So this all started with a coffee in Dallas where

138
00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:49.240
<v Speaker 6>Nico approached us with the concept. And because there was

139
00:06:49.279 --> 00:06:52.600
<v Speaker 6>a partnership and a history of travel in the world

140
00:06:52.759 --> 00:06:57.439
<v Speaker 6>between Nico and myself working around Kobe Bryant, there was

141
00:06:57.439 --> 00:07:02.120
<v Speaker 6>a fabric of trust in the discussions. And these type

142
00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:04.199
<v Speaker 6>of deals are incredibly interesting.

143
00:07:04.240 --> 00:07:08.680
<v Speaker 1>So he's talking about a fabric of trust between him

144
00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:09.560
<v Speaker 1>and Nico.

145
00:07:09.439 --> 00:07:12.519
<v Speaker 3>Which did not Luca's got to go, well, what about

146
00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:14.439
<v Speaker 3>my tree of trust? I thought we were on the

147
00:07:14.519 --> 00:07:17.000
<v Speaker 3>branch with the Luca's got to sit there on stage

148
00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:20.639
<v Speaker 3>and listen to this. Can you piet in MAVs fans also, yeah,

149
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:21.720
<v Speaker 3>can you pick it back up?

150
00:07:21.759 --> 00:07:21.959
<v Speaker 4>Yeah?

151
00:07:22.240 --> 00:07:25.480
<v Speaker 6>Get and complicated. And along the way, we knew there

152
00:07:25.480 --> 00:07:29.839
<v Speaker 6>would be two hundred and forty eight insurmountable snags to

153
00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:32.240
<v Speaker 6>get to the end, and there were. And so over

154
00:07:32.279 --> 00:07:35.120
<v Speaker 6>the course of you know, three weeks, call it, an

155
00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:37.399
<v Speaker 6>issue would come up and we'd think there was no

156
00:07:37.439 --> 00:07:40.120
<v Speaker 6>way to climb the mountain, and we'd figure out a way.

157
00:07:40.399 --> 00:07:42.160
<v Speaker 6>Then the next issue would come up, and you just

158
00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:45.439
<v Speaker 6>keep going, and you keep you stay committed to the work,

159
00:07:45.720 --> 00:07:48.319
<v Speaker 6>You stay committed to trying to get the deal done

160
00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:50.639
<v Speaker 6>in a partnership. Since I think a lot of people

161
00:07:50.639 --> 00:07:54.439
<v Speaker 6>talk about negotiations in terms of who won and who lost.

162
00:07:54.680 --> 00:07:57.439
<v Speaker 6>I try to approach a port a negotiation in the

163
00:07:57.560 --> 00:08:00.319
<v Speaker 6>sense of how do we build a partnership where we

164
00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:02.800
<v Speaker 6>can get to the end. And I think that was

165
00:08:02.839 --> 00:08:06.279
<v Speaker 6>the lens that we worked in, the premise we worked under,

166
00:08:06.879 --> 00:08:11.480
<v Speaker 6>and when the concept was initially introduced to us, it was, Hey,

167
00:08:11.639 --> 00:08:15.000
<v Speaker 6>the only way we could even have these discussions was

168
00:08:15.040 --> 00:08:17.720
<v Speaker 6>if it's between owner and GMS, and there was a

169
00:08:17.720 --> 00:08:20.480
<v Speaker 6>commitment to that, and if we broke that commitment by

170
00:08:20.519 --> 00:08:24.120
<v Speaker 6>talking to anyone else, this day would never happen. So

171
00:08:25.040 --> 00:08:27.519
<v Speaker 6>I think trust was at the center of all those discussions.

172
00:08:27.560 --> 00:08:31.759
<v Speaker 6>And I called Genie after the coffee in Dallas and

173
00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:35.279
<v Speaker 6>brought her in immediately, as I do with everything. Her

174
00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:37.679
<v Speaker 6>and I have a really strong working relationship, and the

175
00:08:37.679 --> 00:08:39.879
<v Speaker 6>fabric of that is that we share we share things

176
00:08:39.960 --> 00:08:43.919
<v Speaker 6>in real time, and she was extraordinarily excited and hopeful

177
00:08:44.519 --> 00:08:46.000
<v Speaker 6>that we could get to the end, which we were

178
00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:46.480
<v Speaker 6>able to do.

179
00:08:47.200 --> 00:08:49.159
<v Speaker 4>Hope we got diarrhea from that coffee.

180
00:08:49.600 --> 00:08:53.879
<v Speaker 1>It is It is incredibly tone deaf on his part

181
00:08:53.919 --> 00:08:56.039
<v Speaker 1>to tell that story five feet away from Luke and

182
00:08:56.120 --> 00:08:57.799
<v Speaker 1>talking about trust and partnership.

183
00:08:57.879 --> 00:08:58.919
<v Speaker 3>He's doushe Magoo.

184
00:08:59.000 --> 00:09:01.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I love that character.

185
00:09:01.799 --> 00:09:04.840
<v Speaker 3>Well, now go to the general manager of the Lakers,

186
00:09:04.879 --> 00:09:08.759
<v Speaker 3>douchey Magoo, who's wearing a double zipped Fonzarelli jacket. It's

187
00:09:08.799 --> 00:09:10.879
<v Speaker 3>his wife's jackets. You let him borrow it. Its four

188
00:09:10.919 --> 00:09:14.759
<v Speaker 3>sizes too small. Rob, tell us your thoughts on why

189
00:09:14.759 --> 00:09:17.799
<v Speaker 3>you're so great. Well, we had to keep Luca out

190
00:09:17.799 --> 00:09:20.759
<v Speaker 3>of this for his own good. I wanted.

191
00:09:20.879 --> 00:09:22.639
<v Speaker 1>We're running out of time here because we do have

192
00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:24.039
<v Speaker 1>the pregame coming up, but I want to play the

193
00:09:24.039 --> 00:09:26.600
<v Speaker 1>final clip, Christina, because you'll hear the voice of Brad

194
00:09:26.639 --> 00:09:29.679
<v Speaker 1>Towns and DMN writer and he it's you'll hear him,

195
00:09:29.679 --> 00:09:33.240
<v Speaker 1>you'll hear Luca and and the second question Brad is asking.

196
00:09:33.279 --> 00:09:36.360
<v Speaker 1>You'll just know Luca is shaking his head in disbelief

197
00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:37.480
<v Speaker 1>during the question.

198
00:09:37.600 --> 00:09:41.000
<v Speaker 7>Luca, Brad Towns and Dallas warning News. Uh. So you

199
00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:44.399
<v Speaker 7>wrote a Dear Dallas letter to fans. It was, you know,

200
00:09:44.519 --> 00:09:47.600
<v Speaker 7>very heartfelt. Uh. And you talked a little bit about

201
00:09:47.720 --> 00:09:50.159
<v Speaker 7>you know, your shock. How are your feelings toward the

202
00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:54.200
<v Speaker 7>upper levels of the organization, you know, Nico in particular

203
00:09:55.320 --> 00:09:56.519
<v Speaker 7>or the decision to trade.

204
00:09:56.320 --> 00:09:59.960
<v Speaker 5>You, well, I mean that's their decision, so I haven't

205
00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:03.759
<v Speaker 5>common in that they made the decision. I don't know why,

206
00:10:04.720 --> 00:10:07.480
<v Speaker 5>uh so, but that's the decision, so I can do

207
00:10:07.519 --> 00:10:08.200
<v Speaker 5>nothing about it.

208
00:10:08.639 --> 00:10:11.039
<v Speaker 7>And then one of the reasons that was given was

209
00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:15.120
<v Speaker 7>that there was concern that, you know, beyond this summer

210
00:10:15.519 --> 00:10:17.919
<v Speaker 7>or that you there's a chance you might not agree

211
00:10:17.960 --> 00:10:22.039
<v Speaker 7>to the supermax extension. Did anyone did you or anyone

212
00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:25.360
<v Speaker 7>on your inner circle indicate that that might be the case.

213
00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:31.120
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely not easy, That's all he has to say about that.

214
00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:32.480
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely not.

215
00:10:32.799 --> 00:10:35.039
<v Speaker 3>It's such a you know, I think Bob Sturm called

216
00:10:35.080 --> 00:10:38.399
<v Speaker 3>it nuclear. It does. It just feels that way. It's like, man,

217
00:10:38.480 --> 00:10:41.720
<v Speaker 3>I wish we had been able to resolve this because

218
00:10:42.000 --> 00:10:44.120
<v Speaker 3>you know, I've called it trade in Santa Claus like

219
00:10:44.159 --> 00:10:45.639
<v Speaker 3>this is his city.

220
00:10:47.240 --> 00:10:49.519
<v Speaker 1>And that's why he's so gutted right now. Yeah, like

221
00:10:49.919 --> 00:10:52.240
<v Speaker 1>la no, I mean, I love Luca. L Ain't never

222
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:53.919
<v Speaker 1>going to be his city, right, It's never.

223
00:10:53.799 --> 00:10:56.519
<v Speaker 3>Gonna be a city. But he's he was ours, yes,

224
00:10:56.840 --> 00:11:00.759
<v Speaker 3>and so like we if you ask probably most MAVs fans,

225
00:11:00.799 --> 00:11:03.879
<v Speaker 3>you're like, hey, would you rather win a championship? Without Luca,

226
00:11:04.360 --> 00:11:06.240
<v Speaker 3>or let him play here for the next twelve years

227
00:11:06.279 --> 00:11:09.440
<v Speaker 3>and don't win a championship. I think probably ninety percent,

228
00:11:09.600 --> 00:11:11.600
<v Speaker 3>if not higher, would say give me the twelve years

229
00:11:11.639 --> 00:11:14.240
<v Speaker 3>of no ring. But with Luca being ours.

230
00:11:14.320 --> 00:11:16.279
<v Speaker 1>I was about to say ninety percent when you said

231
00:11:16.360 --> 00:11:19.679
<v Speaker 1>ninety percent. Now I will say that's a very immediate emotion,

232
00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:22.799
<v Speaker 1>and I think that will change right over time.

233
00:11:22.879 --> 00:11:24.480
<v Speaker 3>But right now it's raw.

234
00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:26.639
<v Speaker 2>It's raw. That's how everybody feels.

235
00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:29.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, all right, why don't we give way to the

236
00:11:29.279 --> 00:11:32.440
<v Speaker 1>pregame crew because right here on ninety seven point one,

237
00:11:32.480 --> 00:11:35.519
<v Speaker 1>the Eagle, home of Dallas Mavericks basketball, we do have

238
00:11:35.559 --> 00:11:38.120
<v Speaker 1>mav Sixers. The MAVs and Sixers made a trade with

239
00:11:38.159 --> 00:11:42.159
<v Speaker 1>one another today. That is so strange. Everything is strange.

240
00:11:42.200 --> 00:11:45.559
<v Speaker 1>It's basketball bizarro world. That's gonna do it for us.

241
00:11:45.639 --> 00:11:48.519
<v Speaker 1>We will be back tomorrow. Hopefully Kati is feeling better,

242
00:11:48.919 --> 00:11:50.679
<v Speaker 1>but if not, who cares?

243
00:11:50.759 --> 00:11:52.480
<v Speaker 2>In house, life goes on.

244
00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:56.440
<v Speaker 1>We're dealing with Luca pay he's been she's Christina, I'm skinned.

245
00:11:56.480 --> 00:11:58.919
<v Speaker 1>MAVs postgame next right here on the Eagle
