<v Speaker 1>Hold on. The audio always stops for some reason, but

2
00:00:15.519 --> 00:00:20.359

<v Speaker 1>of a surprise Thursday Happy Hour stream on Clips and Dip.

00:00:47.159 --> 00:00:52.159
<v Speaker 1>go live on Tuesday. Is my best guess before the

11
00:00:52.200 --> 00:00:59.320
<v Speaker 1>Clippers pick fifth. Adam, how are you feeling? I'm a

12
00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:06.280
<v Speaker 1>new and unfamiliar version of excited for this, this new

13
00:01:06.319 --> 00:01:08.920
<v Speaker 1>era and the new season of the pod, which starts

14
00:01:09.319 --> 00:01:10.000
<v Speaker 1>at the draft.

15
00:01:11.040 --> 00:01:16.640
<v Speaker 2>Most importantly, that's when we start our new season as

16
00:01:16.680 --> 00:01:20.400
<v Speaker 2>soon as Out of Silver holds up out the Clippers card.

17
00:01:21.439 --> 00:01:22.200
<v Speaker 3>I'm excited.

18
00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:27.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm a little bit irritated with how many reports and

19
00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:29.560
<v Speaker 2>just people that want to act like they're in the

20
00:01:29.680 --> 00:01:33.040
<v Speaker 2>know and smoke screens. You get as if anybody really

21
00:01:33.079 --> 00:01:35.680
<v Speaker 2>has a pipeline to the Clippers and knows exactly what

22
00:01:35.760 --> 00:01:36.640
<v Speaker 2>they're going to do.

23
00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:38.040
<v Speaker 3>Like some of the stuff.

24
00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:41.359
<v Speaker 2>I like Jake Fisher, but he's like, oh, they're looking

25
00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:44.879
<v Speaker 2>at this guy. They're working out who was the head

26
00:01:44.920 --> 00:01:45.599
<v Speaker 2>reasons you could.

27
00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:50.599
<v Speaker 1>Talk about it, Brandon Burry's he impressed the Clippers staffers.

28
00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:54.159
<v Speaker 2>But they're also also looking at McHale. Brown Junior is like,

29
00:01:54.920 --> 00:01:59.319
<v Speaker 2>nothing's definitive. Everything gives them an out in case somebody

30
00:01:59.359 --> 00:02:02.000
<v Speaker 2>else gets paid there. I'm ready for the draft to

31
00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:04.120
<v Speaker 2>happen because there's way too much speculation.

32
00:02:04.959 --> 00:02:07.439
<v Speaker 1>I am ready for the draft to happen. I cannot wait.

33
00:02:09.919 --> 00:02:14.159
<v Speaker 1>People are nervous. I'm nervous, but in an excited way.

34
00:02:14.240 --> 00:02:17.919
<v Speaker 1>There's there's not none of the reported guys who were

35
00:02:18.039 --> 00:02:21.759
<v Speaker 1>gonna be there at five are anyone where I'm like, well,

36
00:02:21.800 --> 00:02:24.240
<v Speaker 1>if we pick that guy, we're absolutely screwed and we

37
00:02:24.319 --> 00:02:25.280
<v Speaker 1>made the wrong decision.

38
00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:26.400
<v Speaker 2>A lot of like.

39
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:31.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, true, but we just won't know for a while.

40
00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:34.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I guess there's just no major red flags, you

41
00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:36.039
<v Speaker 1>know what I'm saying, Like, there's no one where it's

42
00:02:36.120 --> 00:02:42.120
<v Speaker 1>like maybe the back thing with NBJ, but he's you know,

43
00:02:42.280 --> 00:02:47.960
<v Speaker 1>past all the conditioning stuff as you've talked about. Yeah,

44
00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:50.360
<v Speaker 1>but yeah, like there's no one who I'm gonna be like,

45
00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:54.400
<v Speaker 1>unless we do what will supposedly once, which is take

46
00:02:54.439 --> 00:02:55.879
<v Speaker 1>the excellent five, I might freak.

47
00:02:55.719 --> 00:03:01.680
<v Speaker 2>Out then, But big X, Yeah, hey, if they trade

48
00:03:01.719 --> 00:03:03.879
<v Speaker 2>back for him, I wouldn't freak out. Same with A

49
00:03:04.199 --> 00:03:06.439
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't freak out. Even if they did take Burr's

50
00:03:06.439 --> 00:03:08.439
<v Speaker 2>at five, I wouldn't freak out. I would be a

51
00:03:08.560 --> 00:03:10.639
<v Speaker 2>little bit like, wait a second, could we have gotten

52
00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:12.120
<v Speaker 2>something more for him? I.

53
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:16.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Burri's at five. I would be like, Well, I

54
00:03:16.520 --> 00:03:18.159
<v Speaker 1>was saying I was high in at the beginning of this,

55
00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:22.360
<v Speaker 1>so I really hope this works out selfishly, But yeah,

56
00:03:22.360 --> 00:03:24.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean I like Burris's game. I think the ceiling

57
00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:27.919
<v Speaker 1>isn't as high as some of the other guys there,

58
00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:32.560
<v Speaker 1>but I think he slots into the team. Well, yeah,

59
00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:36.000
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of bones saw twenty eight saying Kevin

60
00:03:36.039 --> 00:03:39.080
<v Speaker 1>O'Connors and the Clippers are trading back. We've heard he

61
00:03:40.599 --> 00:03:43.240
<v Speaker 1>he he's reported a lot lately.

62
00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:44.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he's all over the place.

63
00:03:45.800 --> 00:03:48.960
<v Speaker 1>He's also reported that the Clippers still really want Kawhi

64
00:03:49.159 --> 00:03:54.120
<v Speaker 1>or the Warriors still really want Kawhi. Saw that which

65
00:03:54.560 --> 00:03:56.240
<v Speaker 1>great send us a better trade offer?

66
00:03:57.039 --> 00:04:00.879
<v Speaker 3>Starts with two first, Yeah, it starts.

67
00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:01.319
<v Speaker 1>With two first.

68
00:04:03.719 --> 00:04:06.280
<v Speaker 2>I Like, you know, I brought up Nate Ahmen before,

69
00:04:06.759 --> 00:04:08.719
<v Speaker 2>and if you do trade back and end up with

70
00:04:08.800 --> 00:04:11.000
<v Speaker 2>two picks and you use one on him, I would

71
00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:13.520
<v Speaker 2>not hate that. I think that's one of the more

72
00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:16.360
<v Speaker 2>intriguing guys in this draft, just because he came into

73
00:04:16.399 --> 00:04:19.600
<v Speaker 2>the year so high on draft boards and then kind

74
00:04:19.600 --> 00:04:21.639
<v Speaker 2>of at a down year in a down tournament. But

75
00:04:22.279 --> 00:04:24.519
<v Speaker 2>the talent and uniqueness to his game is there.

76
00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:27.839
<v Speaker 1>So this has been brought up a lot because of

77
00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:31.279
<v Speaker 1>Alex Web brought up ament could a Kauhi trade be

78
00:04:31.360 --> 00:04:33.399
<v Speaker 1>coming because Nate Amt was reportedly brought in.

79
00:04:34.680 --> 00:04:39.720
<v Speaker 2>Teams work out like fifteen guys around their draft spot.

80
00:04:40.720 --> 00:04:41.040
<v Speaker 3>I don't.

81
00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:44.720
<v Speaker 2>I think projecting based off of workouts is foolish when

82
00:04:44.759 --> 00:04:46.519
<v Speaker 2>you look back at past drafts.

83
00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:50.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Like, I don't think it means a Kawhi trade

84
00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:54.000
<v Speaker 1>is I don't. I don't know. Again, the Warriors offer

85
00:04:54.120 --> 00:04:54.759
<v Speaker 1>has to be good.

86
00:04:55.639 --> 00:04:58.560
<v Speaker 3>Kawai has to want to go. They're not going to

87
00:04:58.720 --> 00:04:59.720
<v Speaker 3>just send him out.

88
00:05:00.480 --> 00:05:04.600
<v Speaker 1>And he's gonna assumedly have some kind of plan in

89
00:05:04.680 --> 00:05:06.759
<v Speaker 1>place for an extension with the team that he goes to.

90
00:05:07.639 --> 00:05:11.639
<v Speaker 1>I don't think kaw is just gonna risk being a

91
00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:13.120
<v Speaker 1>restricted free agent like.

92
00:05:15.079 --> 00:05:19.120
<v Speaker 3>Or an unrestricted on a expiring deal this year.

93
00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Right, hey madeir saying Kawhi for two first round picks

94
00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:28.319
<v Speaker 1>and Butler's contract is fair. Yeah, great if it's this,

95
00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:32.560
<v Speaker 1>it's one of those. Is this year's awesome? Like, I mean,

96
00:05:32.959 --> 00:05:33.600
<v Speaker 1>it'd be weird.

97
00:05:33.759 --> 00:05:38.040
<v Speaker 3>But do they have eleven? I want to say that

98
00:05:38.399 --> 00:05:38.839
<v Speaker 3>around there.

99
00:05:40.720 --> 00:05:45.600
<v Speaker 2>I definitely consider it, but I think you have to

100
00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:47.920
<v Speaker 2>do right by Kawhi in this situation.

101
00:05:48.839 --> 00:05:49.680
<v Speaker 1>They do have eleven?

102
00:05:50.519 --> 00:05:54.199
<v Speaker 3>Okay, that's Nate Allman territory.

103
00:05:55.079 --> 00:05:56.839
<v Speaker 1>It is territory.

104
00:05:57.720 --> 00:06:02.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I was a good player, like I we

105
00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:06.720
<v Speaker 2>just like, if you get Yoxel around that range, cool.

106
00:06:07.720 --> 00:06:09.600
<v Speaker 2>I think it might make more sense for a team

107
00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:12.000
<v Speaker 2>that's more ready to compete right away.

108
00:06:12.120 --> 00:06:15.120
<v Speaker 1>And a team that needs bigs. We need bigger guys.

109
00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:17.879
<v Speaker 1>La Murray put out a great free gift article on

110
00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:21.560
<v Speaker 1>The Athletic Today that brought up a good point. He

111
00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:23.680
<v Speaker 1>laid it out that they need help at every position.

112
00:06:25.639 --> 00:06:29.600
<v Speaker 3>Good news or bad news is right, they need.

113
00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:33.959
<v Speaker 1>Help at every position. So yeah, I don't know, there's

114
00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:39.959
<v Speaker 1>been there's the the like Jalen Brown scuttle butt that

115
00:06:40.240 --> 00:06:44.600
<v Speaker 1>like came from a rumor that the Clippers would be

116
00:06:44.680 --> 00:06:47.600
<v Speaker 1>this third team to get in on this huge deal

117
00:06:48.279 --> 00:06:50.839
<v Speaker 1>with you. Honest, we would get Jalen Brown.

118
00:06:51.040 --> 00:06:51.600
<v Speaker 2>I like that.

119
00:06:53.759 --> 00:06:54.800
<v Speaker 3>I like Dylan Brown.

120
00:06:54.879 --> 00:06:56.879
<v Speaker 2>I just don't know how much sense it makes because

121
00:06:56.879 --> 00:06:59.839
<v Speaker 2>if you're getting him, you're paying him what seventy million

122
00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:02.480
<v Speaker 2>at the end of his contract, Like you better be

123
00:07:02.639 --> 00:07:03.720
<v Speaker 2>competing immediately.

124
00:07:05.160 --> 00:07:08.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I just can't. I don't see it happening.

125
00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:11.519
<v Speaker 2>Like, yeah, there was another report that said they're not

126
00:07:12.600 --> 00:07:14.959
<v Speaker 2>They're not going to give up the fifth pick. I

127
00:07:15.040 --> 00:07:17.319
<v Speaker 2>would be surprised if they gave up the fifth pick

128
00:07:17.360 --> 00:07:21.839
<v Speaker 2>at this point for anything but more picks or for

129
00:07:22.639 --> 00:07:27.360
<v Speaker 2>or for trading forward upwards, Like if they're trading with

130
00:07:27.560 --> 00:07:30.360
<v Speaker 2>whoever has four because that person doesn't care and they

131
00:07:30.399 --> 00:07:32.279
<v Speaker 2>want a cuff and the Clippers want Caleb Wilson.

132
00:07:32.360 --> 00:07:32.879
<v Speaker 3>That's one thing.

133
00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:36.560
<v Speaker 2>But for a player at this point on a huge contract,

134
00:07:37.319 --> 00:07:38.560
<v Speaker 2>that'd be kind of surprising to me.

135
00:07:39.560 --> 00:07:41.120
<v Speaker 1>And you know, with the Apron, it would have to

136
00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:43.759
<v Speaker 1>be some kind of and but you know, the Clippers

137
00:07:43.800 --> 00:07:48.079
<v Speaker 1>aren't one guy away, like one big trade. It's like

138
00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:49.639
<v Speaker 1>we're right there. It's like, no, there's a bunch of

139
00:07:49.720 --> 00:07:53.240
<v Speaker 1>growing bands our center.

140
00:07:55.439 --> 00:07:59.480
<v Speaker 2>If it's some precursor to something else going on Okay,

141
00:08:00.160 --> 00:08:04.480
<v Speaker 2>but I think that's a little bit of far fetched

142
00:08:04.560 --> 00:08:06.879
<v Speaker 2>or not within the realm of possibility at the moment.

143
00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:09.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. And also when I mentioned that, I just said

144
00:08:09.600 --> 00:08:12.279
<v Speaker 1>that the center rotation is trash. I mean until Yannick

145
00:08:12.399 --> 00:08:14.920
<v Speaker 1>is back, you hurt Yanick, the center rotation is very

146
00:08:15.040 --> 00:08:19.959
<v Speaker 1>bad right now. The one thing that I do kind

147
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:24.199
<v Speaker 1>of believe is that it's been around for a minute.

148
00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:29.319
<v Speaker 1>It's that the Kings want a Cuff. Matt George has

149
00:08:29.319 --> 00:08:32.679
<v Speaker 1>been reporting on that for like since before, well before

150
00:08:32.720 --> 00:08:34.879
<v Speaker 1>workouts and stuff like, they've had people at his gay.

151
00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:37.399
<v Speaker 3>It's just one of those things that since they got

152
00:08:37.440 --> 00:08:38.120
<v Speaker 3>the seventh pick.

153
00:08:38.919 --> 00:08:42.799
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, an A Cuff reportedly wants to go to the Kings,

154
00:08:45.720 --> 00:08:46.399
<v Speaker 1>which I'm like, I.

155
00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:47.320
<v Speaker 3>Don't know if I can buy it.

156
00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:52.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Well, he knows they will focus around him and

157
00:08:52.960 --> 00:08:55.879
<v Speaker 2>he'll give you gaining the star treatment and he will

158
00:08:55.919 --> 00:08:58.360
<v Speaker 2>be looked at as the savior of the franchise. Maybe

159
00:08:58.440 --> 00:09:00.720
<v Speaker 2>that's where the thought process is coming from, why he'd

160
00:09:01.159 --> 00:09:02.080
<v Speaker 2>wanted to go to the Kings.

161
00:09:03.720 --> 00:09:06.120
<v Speaker 1>You're the guy. Someone in the chat is saying the

162
00:09:06.159 --> 00:09:09.080
<v Speaker 1>Spurs did not have a growing period. They tanked for

163
00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:09.759
<v Speaker 1>two years.

164
00:09:10.600 --> 00:09:14.440
<v Speaker 3>They had three straight top five picks, but.

165
00:09:14.559 --> 00:09:19.799
<v Speaker 1>Sure, yeah, I mean it is weird to hear anyone

166
00:09:19.879 --> 00:09:22.039
<v Speaker 1>say they want to go to the Kings. That is

167
00:09:22.120 --> 00:09:24.440
<v Speaker 1>a surprising thing to hear from a guy.

168
00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:28.720
<v Speaker 3>Hey, Alex Dime stole that from me, all right.

169
00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:31.279
<v Speaker 2>I went on locked on, and I was supposed to

170
00:09:31.399 --> 00:09:33.639
<v Speaker 2>talk about I was supposed to talk about how I

171
00:09:33.759 --> 00:09:35.960
<v Speaker 2>wanted a cuff, and by the time I did a.

172
00:09:35.960 --> 00:09:38.120
<v Speaker 3>Little research to get ready.

173
00:09:37.879 --> 00:09:40.279
<v Speaker 2>For the show, I was like, actually, I'm gonna throw

174
00:09:40.279 --> 00:09:42.279
<v Speaker 2>a rench to your plans here, Dom. I kind of like,

175
00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:45.519
<v Speaker 2>is it Mike Klee Brown Junior because I've heard that

176
00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:46.440
<v Speaker 2>as well.

177
00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:48.879
<v Speaker 3>Now and I'm not sure which one to go with.

178
00:09:49.399 --> 00:09:51.080
<v Speaker 1>Well, I have to lock that in. We could probably

179
00:09:51.080 --> 00:09:53.679
<v Speaker 1>look up some highlights right now if we wanted to that.

180
00:09:53.879 --> 00:09:57.399
<v Speaker 1>So that is who I would. I'm hype four or

181
00:09:57.440 --> 00:10:01.159
<v Speaker 1>five as Brown as MBJ. I want. I want that.

182
00:10:01.759 --> 00:10:04.000
<v Speaker 1>That's I'm fine with all the options that we've heard.

183
00:10:04.320 --> 00:10:05.879
<v Speaker 1>That's the one that I really want though.

184
00:10:07.240 --> 00:10:12.240
<v Speaker 3>Selfishly smart man, I can be talked out of it

185
00:10:12.320 --> 00:10:13.759
<v Speaker 3>pretty easily now. People.

186
00:10:14.080 --> 00:10:18.519
<v Speaker 2>The last day was more Keaton Woggler smoke, and I

187
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:20.879
<v Speaker 2>started to think more about that and why that would

188
00:10:20.919 --> 00:10:22.919
<v Speaker 2>be and some of that makes sense too.

189
00:10:23.159 --> 00:10:28.200
<v Speaker 3>I I am not, you know, firm on any of

190
00:10:28.320 --> 00:10:28.960
<v Speaker 3>these guys.

191
00:10:29.080 --> 00:10:33.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm rooting for whoever they draft, and I think there's

192
00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:35.519
<v Speaker 2>a lot of arguments to be made for each of them.

193
00:10:36.679 --> 00:10:41.000
<v Speaker 1>Yes, and Woggler's fallen off a lot of people's boards.

194
00:10:41.120 --> 00:10:43.440
<v Speaker 1>It's really just seems to be the athleticism thing. But

195
00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:46.679
<v Speaker 1>this is also what happens right as the draft talk goes.

196
00:10:47.440 --> 00:10:52.320
<v Speaker 1>You focus on five guys for months, and it's so

197
00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:54.600
<v Speaker 1>much easier to pick out things they might be bad at.

198
00:10:56.120 --> 00:10:58.879
<v Speaker 2>You really melt your brain like it is draft brain

199
00:10:59.000 --> 00:11:02.559
<v Speaker 2>rot going through all of this and sleepless nice of

200
00:11:02.679 --> 00:11:04.559
<v Speaker 2>thinking it should be this guy and then that guy,

201
00:11:04.600 --> 00:11:07.120
<v Speaker 2>because I've gone from we start with Woggler and then

202
00:11:07.159 --> 00:11:10.240
<v Speaker 2>I went to a cuff and now I'm Michael Brown Junior.

203
00:11:12.039 --> 00:11:14.480
<v Speaker 3>I like Lemmings a lot.

204
00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:19.919
<v Speaker 2>I think he could be the guy just because the

205
00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:23.480
<v Speaker 2>process that he had to play with at Houston and

206
00:11:23.600 --> 00:11:26.159
<v Speaker 2>Kelvin Sampson and the mid range is already there.

207
00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:26.919
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

208
00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:28.679
<v Speaker 3>And he's one of the better.

209
00:11:28.559 --> 00:11:32.960
<v Speaker 2>Athletes, and he's probably the best playmaker slash two way

210
00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:34.799
<v Speaker 2>player of the bunch of those guys.

211
00:11:34.919 --> 00:11:37.360
<v Speaker 3>And he might be the youngest. He is the youngest.

212
00:11:37.919 --> 00:11:39.879
<v Speaker 1>That's what I like, like the two way thing. And

213
00:11:39.960 --> 00:11:42.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure it's because we just watched you know, you

214
00:11:42.559 --> 00:11:46.799
<v Speaker 1>watched thunder Spurs and you see incredibly good young defensive guards,

215
00:11:47.080 --> 00:11:50.960
<v Speaker 1>and you watched the Spurs for some of the time

216
00:11:51.080 --> 00:11:55.000
<v Speaker 1>play really good defense against the Kings from the guard spot,

217
00:11:55.200 --> 00:11:57.799
<v Speaker 1>and so that I've been enamored with that. I think

218
00:11:57.840 --> 00:11:59.679
<v Speaker 1>I've probably weighed that too heavily. But I'm like, is

219
00:11:59.720 --> 00:12:03.000
<v Speaker 1>he gonna be able to not contribute right away on defense?

220
00:12:03.039 --> 00:12:04.759
<v Speaker 1>Because I think that is such a hard thing to

221
00:12:04.879 --> 00:12:09.320
<v Speaker 1>learn as a rookie. But is he going to start? Yeah?

222
00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:11.720
<v Speaker 1>Is he gonna learn? Is he gonna get into the

223
00:12:11.759 --> 00:12:14.519
<v Speaker 1>groove as the season goes and start at like a

224
00:12:15.080 --> 00:12:18.279
<v Speaker 1>okay ish spot because very few guys come in ready

225
00:12:18.279 --> 00:12:19.559
<v Speaker 1>to play NBA level defense.

226
00:12:20.679 --> 00:12:23.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he's on the smaller side, and.

227
00:12:25.679 --> 00:12:28.759
<v Speaker 2>I mean height wise, he's taller than a Cuff. His

228
00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:34.240
<v Speaker 2>wingspan isn't huge, but I don't know. The playmaking is

229
00:12:34.320 --> 00:12:37.519
<v Speaker 2>really strong and he's the only one with Hey Acuff

230
00:12:37.559 --> 00:12:39.440
<v Speaker 2>has some of this too, But like he is a

231
00:12:39.559 --> 00:12:44.080
<v Speaker 2>mid range specialist, which I like because I feel like

232
00:12:44.159 --> 00:12:47.000
<v Speaker 2>the other stuff you work so much on in today's

233
00:12:47.080 --> 00:12:50.600
<v Speaker 2>game with analytics with three and he can get downhill.

234
00:12:50.720 --> 00:12:53.919
<v Speaker 2>They had two bigs at Houston, so it kind of

235
00:12:53.919 --> 00:12:56.240
<v Speaker 2>cramped the pain a little bit. But he's explosive. He's

236
00:12:56.279 --> 00:12:59.120
<v Speaker 2>really good in the open court. Like I expect the

237
00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:01.200
<v Speaker 2>three to be there, or at least you to be

238
00:13:01.320 --> 00:13:04.960
<v Speaker 2>working on that. Uh. Not many guys, you know, come

239
00:13:05.039 --> 00:13:07.000
<v Speaker 2>in with a mid range where he shot forty six

240
00:13:07.080 --> 00:13:08.399
<v Speaker 2>percent off a pull up.

241
00:13:08.799 --> 00:13:14.639
<v Speaker 1>Two's nothing to sneeze at, James saying, I wouldn't be

242
00:13:14.720 --> 00:13:17.440
<v Speaker 1>mad at acuff, but then Garland is gone, so that

243
00:13:17.639 --> 00:13:19.799
<v Speaker 1>is something there was what was the line in Law's

244
00:13:19.879 --> 00:13:23.200
<v Speaker 1>piece today? He said something very funny. He said, why

245
00:13:23.240 --> 00:13:26.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm concerned with? Uh? He had why I'm concerned for

246
00:13:26.120 --> 00:13:28.480
<v Speaker 1>a cuff? He said, how many small guards named Darius

247
00:13:28.559 --> 00:13:34.039
<v Speaker 1>do you need? That's pretty funny. Well, Darius, that would

248
00:13:34.120 --> 00:13:36.759
<v Speaker 1>pos an that would make the Clippers have some questions.

249
00:13:36.759 --> 00:13:39.399
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he would be gone immediately, but I

250
00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:42.559
<v Speaker 1>think it's something where you got to see because you

251
00:13:42.600 --> 00:13:45.879
<v Speaker 1>can't run two guards that small, no matter how good

252
00:13:45.879 --> 00:13:46.440
<v Speaker 1>your offense.

253
00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:52.360
<v Speaker 2>I mean, when I was most excited about a cuff,

254
00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:54.840
<v Speaker 2>I was saying, bring him off the bench. That's not

255
00:13:54.919 --> 00:13:57.799
<v Speaker 2>a problem in his first year and let him learn

256
00:13:58.200 --> 00:14:00.159
<v Speaker 2>and he can still play twenty minutes a game off

257
00:14:00.200 --> 00:14:05.440
<v Speaker 2>the bench or whatever. I'm not making my draft decision

258
00:14:05.519 --> 00:14:08.679
<v Speaker 2>based upon Darius Garland. I'm taking the best player for

259
00:14:08.720 --> 00:14:12.639
<v Speaker 2>the future because Darius Garland still have question marks himself

260
00:14:12.639 --> 00:14:13.960
<v Speaker 2>and he's about to turn twenty seven.

261
00:14:14.600 --> 00:14:17.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and we don't know long term.

262
00:14:18.639 --> 00:14:20.360
<v Speaker 1>Acuff off the bench is cool because he can be

263
00:14:20.440 --> 00:14:23.000
<v Speaker 1>the focal point. Yeah, it's really hard to go from

264
00:14:23.039 --> 00:14:25.559
<v Speaker 1>being I mean sure, his usage rate is one of

265
00:14:25.600 --> 00:14:29.000
<v Speaker 1>the highest of all time in college, you know, and

266
00:14:29.039 --> 00:14:30.840
<v Speaker 1>then they like, all right, now play the two next

267
00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:33.080
<v Speaker 1>to a guy who also needs a ball in his hand, Like, no,

268
00:14:33.240 --> 00:14:35.080
<v Speaker 1>you gotta transition into some of that.

269
00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:38.240
<v Speaker 2>I would guess the guy who would definitely be gone

270
00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:42.480
<v Speaker 2>if they brought an Acuff his Mathron. Yeah. I don't

271
00:14:42.559 --> 00:14:46.159
<v Speaker 2>see how a Cuff can grow as a young player

272
00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:49.120
<v Speaker 2>coming off the bench and also doing so with Benedict

273
00:14:49.159 --> 00:14:50.679
<v Speaker 2>Mathrin and his ISO play.

274
00:14:51.159 --> 00:14:52.679
<v Speaker 3>I don't know how you develop him that way.

275
00:14:53.799 --> 00:14:57.639
<v Speaker 2>So, I mean, if you're considering now two guys that

276
00:14:57.799 --> 00:15:03.000
<v Speaker 2>Acuff effects Scarland and the possibility of restricted free agent

277
00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:06.679
<v Speaker 2>Bendic Mathern, does that wagh more heavily on your team

278
00:15:06.799 --> 00:15:09.320
<v Speaker 2>or are you still just saying best player available? But

279
00:15:09.639 --> 00:15:13.279
<v Speaker 2>is it if there isn't a clear cut best player available,

280
00:15:13.879 --> 00:15:16.120
<v Speaker 2>that's where you get into these conversations where you can

281
00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:19.039
<v Speaker 2>talk yourself into this guy. If there's just slight differences

282
00:15:19.159 --> 00:15:21.240
<v Speaker 2>or you feel like their ceilings are pretty close to

283
00:15:21.279 --> 00:15:26.120
<v Speaker 2>where they could be eventually actualized at the NBA level,

284
00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:29.320
<v Speaker 2>then maybe you just go with a guy who fits

285
00:15:29.360 --> 00:15:32.919
<v Speaker 2>a little bit better because you think best player is

286
00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:34.120
<v Speaker 2>kind of a toss up.

287
00:15:35.159 --> 00:15:39.080
<v Speaker 1>A toss up and you're still committed to that thing

288
00:15:39.159 --> 00:15:41.320
<v Speaker 1>the Clippers want to do, which is win basketball games.

289
00:15:41.399 --> 00:15:44.720
<v Speaker 3>And you know what I mean, like, yeah, they.

290
00:15:44.639 --> 00:15:49.799
<v Speaker 1>Have no interest in not winning games? Have you? There

291
00:15:49.919 --> 00:15:52.320
<v Speaker 1>was someone who has been commenting on our YouTube whose

292
00:15:52.399 --> 00:15:54.039
<v Speaker 1>name I will pull up right now, but they've been

293
00:15:54.159 --> 00:15:59.679
<v Speaker 1>kind of pestering us, and I say, immediately to a

294
00:15:59.759 --> 00:16:04.320
<v Speaker 1>great they've been commenting at us to talk about some

295
00:16:04.480 --> 00:16:09.279
<v Speaker 1>second round guys because the Clippers do have two second

296
00:16:09.360 --> 00:16:12.840
<v Speaker 1>round picks. I have three guys that I have picked out,

297
00:16:14.200 --> 00:16:15.879
<v Speaker 1>and I'll tell you what I think I'm gonna I

298
00:16:15.960 --> 00:16:17.759
<v Speaker 1>think two of them are going to second round picks

299
00:16:17.799 --> 00:16:21.399
<v Speaker 1>are impossible to like, you can kind of say anybody

300
00:16:21.960 --> 00:16:27.080
<v Speaker 1>other than like the top forty guys, everything below top forty.

301
00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:31.720
<v Speaker 1>I think you can just kind of we have like

302
00:16:31.799 --> 00:16:33.879
<v Speaker 1>the fifty second pick, right, we have thirty six, we

303
00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:35.240
<v Speaker 1>have thirty six and fifty two.

304
00:16:36.759 --> 00:16:42.279
<v Speaker 2>Thirty six is coming from Cleveland, I believe, so, or

305
00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:43.039
<v Speaker 2>is that Indiana?

306
00:16:44.159 --> 00:16:44.679
<v Speaker 1>Let me look?

307
00:16:45.679 --> 00:16:46.279
<v Speaker 3>Or is that us?

308
00:16:46.960 --> 00:16:52.600
<v Speaker 2>No, it's not us, regardless. I haven't done much research

309
00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:55.759
<v Speaker 2>on going that deep into the draft, so well, you

310
00:16:55.840 --> 00:16:56.840
<v Speaker 2>better trap in, dude.

311
00:16:57.879 --> 00:17:00.279
<v Speaker 3>Is that Wednesday Night round?

312
00:17:01.200 --> 00:17:02.279
<v Speaker 1>I think it's from Memphis?

313
00:17:03.480 --> 00:17:07.599
<v Speaker 3>But is it through one of the trades with Indiana Cleveland?

314
00:17:07.839 --> 00:17:10.519
<v Speaker 1>From the Canard trade via Oh.

315
00:17:10.400 --> 00:17:14.480
<v Speaker 3>It's going back to that and Jack has left the chat?

316
00:17:14.799 --> 00:17:16.160
<v Speaker 1>I lost connection? Am I back?

317
00:17:16.519 --> 00:17:16.960
<v Speaker 3>You're back?

318
00:17:17.200 --> 00:17:20.799
<v Speaker 1>There we go? Was that from the No? Never mind, No,

319
00:17:20.960 --> 00:17:24.839
<v Speaker 1>we have the own pick, but the Nets will receive

320
00:17:24.920 --> 00:17:28.519
<v Speaker 1>the less favorable of the Clippers twenty twenty six second

321
00:17:28.640 --> 00:17:34.119
<v Speaker 1>round and two most favorable of Boston's. That's from something, dude,

322
00:17:34.839 --> 00:17:39.240
<v Speaker 1>we have it. I'm putting this in the chat. This

323
00:17:39.440 --> 00:17:40.519
<v Speaker 1>is so funny.

324
00:17:40.720 --> 00:17:45.680
<v Speaker 3>Hold on going genealogy of the pick, dude.

325
00:17:45.680 --> 00:17:46.759
<v Speaker 1>Look how long this is?

326
00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:57.559
<v Speaker 3>That's a lot? Okay, whatever, we got shuck, so we got.

327
00:17:59.480 --> 00:18:04.200
<v Speaker 1>Ugana. Oh yan Waiso. He went to Virginia. He's seven

328
00:18:04.319 --> 00:18:09.640
<v Speaker 1>feet two forty five. Watch his tape. Three blocks a

329
00:18:09.720 --> 00:18:12.839
<v Speaker 1>game his senior year while also not fouling a lot.

330
00:18:13.759 --> 00:18:16.680
<v Speaker 3>Okay, which is back uponic in the future.

331
00:18:16.680 --> 00:18:20.720
<v Speaker 1>Something people rave. He played a great game against Duke.

332
00:18:20.799 --> 00:18:22.920
<v Speaker 1>He had a huge block in that game. The people like, go,

333
00:18:23.039 --> 00:18:29.079
<v Speaker 1>that's crazy at fifty two. If he falls that far,

334
00:18:30.200 --> 00:18:32.279
<v Speaker 1>go eat some minutes and make life hard for the

335
00:18:32.359 --> 00:18:36.920
<v Speaker 1>other big. I love this pick. He's gigantic. He can block,

336
00:18:37.559 --> 00:18:39.839
<v Speaker 1>like he needs to learn to rebound a little bit better,

337
00:18:40.039 --> 00:18:42.759
<v Speaker 1>but I like it. He plays good defense. What more

338
00:18:42.759 --> 00:18:43.799
<v Speaker 1>do you want in the third center?

339
00:18:45.279 --> 00:18:45.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

340
00:18:46.119 --> 00:18:48.839
<v Speaker 1>I generally highlights on the rundown that I sent.

341
00:18:49.400 --> 00:18:54.640
<v Speaker 3>I I was at a medical thing, mourn me.

342
00:18:57.359 --> 00:19:03.960
<v Speaker 2>I generally like taking bigs late with high upside because

343
00:19:04.079 --> 00:19:06.920
<v Speaker 2>they also tend to have a higher floor. It's like

344
00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:11.319
<v Speaker 2>it's it's harder to judge, and it's kind of just

345
00:19:11.400 --> 00:19:13.319
<v Speaker 2>like you could end up with a guy who's serviceable

346
00:19:13.359 --> 00:19:13.920
<v Speaker 2>pretty easily.

347
00:19:14.519 --> 00:19:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, let's I'll throw some highlights on. I'm gonna mute

348
00:19:17.960 --> 00:19:23.279
<v Speaker 1>it because they take our money. But he like he

349
00:19:23.519 --> 00:19:28.319
<v Speaker 1>has the size is there. He's obviously the largest guy

350
00:19:28.359 --> 00:19:33.079
<v Speaker 1>on the court, discipline, discipline, get out of here?

351
00:19:34.319 --> 00:19:36.319
<v Speaker 3>Was that a double dribble? It looked like you pick

352
00:19:36.400 --> 00:19:37.640
<v Speaker 3>up the dribble and put it on the floor and

353
00:19:37.680 --> 00:19:38.440
<v Speaker 3>they got rejected.

354
00:19:39.200 --> 00:19:41.119
<v Speaker 1>I mean that's the other thing. Guys would cheat against him.

355
00:19:41.960 --> 00:19:42.839
<v Speaker 3>That's how scared there.

356
00:19:43.160 --> 00:19:46.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they were so good. Yeah, I like this pick.

357
00:19:46.559 --> 00:19:50.160
<v Speaker 1>I think it would be very fun. It would just

358
00:19:50.200 --> 00:19:51.759
<v Speaker 1>be kind of fun. He would definitely be fun to

359
00:19:51.799 --> 00:19:55.319
<v Speaker 1>watch in summer league because he would just be trying

360
00:19:55.359 --> 00:19:56.000
<v Speaker 1>to block the hell.

361
00:19:55.880 --> 00:19:57.599
<v Speaker 3>Out of the hole. I think. Yeah.

362
00:19:58.759 --> 00:20:03.599
<v Speaker 1>Nick Martinelli from Northwestern six seven to twenty five shooting guard,

363
00:20:03.640 --> 00:20:07.279
<v Speaker 1>small forward uh twenty three points per game last season

364
00:20:07.359 --> 00:20:12.160
<v Speaker 1>to twenty point seasons in a row for just over

365
00:20:12.279 --> 00:20:14.480
<v Speaker 1>three point three to three point at times of game,

366
00:20:14.559 --> 00:20:18.200
<v Speaker 1>So the form is there. Loves the mid range, unreal

367
00:20:18.359 --> 00:20:23.359
<v Speaker 1>mid range shooter, excellent scorer on touch shots, ranking in

368
00:20:23.400 --> 00:20:26.519
<v Speaker 1>the eighty eighth percentile of efficiency on these attempts per Synergy.

369
00:20:26.920 --> 00:20:28.880
<v Speaker 1>He can make the extra pass in the post, He

370
00:20:28.960 --> 00:20:33.839
<v Speaker 1>fights for offensive rebounds, good footwork, The flyer's there. The

371
00:20:33.960 --> 00:20:36.119
<v Speaker 1>flyer is there for Nick Martinelly.

372
00:20:37.160 --> 00:20:38.960
<v Speaker 3>We're popping the Martin Ellie's if they get him.

373
00:20:40.480 --> 00:20:44.000
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely, did I put a tape on here too. No,

374
00:20:44.039 --> 00:20:46.799
<v Speaker 1>I just link to a scouting report and then the

375
00:20:46.920 --> 00:20:53.119
<v Speaker 1>last one. Jaden Bradley, teammate of Brandon Burry's at Arizona,

376
00:20:53.279 --> 00:20:57.400
<v Speaker 1>six five point guard, shooting guard. He's twenty three, so

377
00:20:57.480 --> 00:20:59.480
<v Speaker 1>I think that helps his chances with the Clippers giving

378
00:20:59.559 --> 00:21:01.519
<v Speaker 1>him a look. He's an older guy.

379
00:21:02.319 --> 00:21:02.440
<v Speaker 2>Uh.

380
00:21:02.680 --> 00:21:06.799
<v Speaker 1>He averaged thirteen points three and a half boards for

381
00:21:07.039 --> 00:21:09.400
<v Speaker 1>assists as a senior. He was the Big twelve Player

382
00:21:09.440 --> 00:21:12.759
<v Speaker 1>of the Year. He relies more on skill than athleticism.

383
00:21:12.839 --> 00:21:16.440
<v Speaker 1>He's solid on the defensive end. He can generate turnovers

384
00:21:16.440 --> 00:21:17.160
<v Speaker 1>with anticipation.

385
00:21:17.519 --> 00:21:18.039
<v Speaker 3>I like that.

386
00:21:19.000 --> 00:21:21.440
<v Speaker 1>I like that is as a late pick. Those are

387
00:21:21.480 --> 00:21:25.440
<v Speaker 1>my three guys that are my one locks to be

388
00:21:25.759 --> 00:21:27.640
<v Speaker 1>picks for the Clippers in the second round.

389
00:21:27.960 --> 00:21:32.839
<v Speaker 2>Stone Cold lead Pipe los lock it in. Dude, you're

390
00:21:32.880 --> 00:21:34.440
<v Speaker 2>gonna hear this from Kevin O'Connor.

391
00:21:38.440 --> 00:21:40.160
<v Speaker 1>Did you look at anyone in the second round? Have

392
00:21:40.240 --> 00:21:42.240
<v Speaker 1>you even thought about it? It's fair if you haven't,

393
00:21:42.240 --> 00:21:43.799
<v Speaker 1>because I hadn't until three days ago.

394
00:21:44.640 --> 00:21:49.400
<v Speaker 2>I genuinely I didn't watch much college basketball till the

395
00:21:49.480 --> 00:21:50.839
<v Speaker 2>tournament started at all.

396
00:21:51.599 --> 00:21:53.359
<v Speaker 3>I just can't fake it going that far.

397
00:21:53.640 --> 00:21:54.640
<v Speaker 1>Rarely draft.

398
00:21:55.920 --> 00:21:57.680
<v Speaker 3>Like seeh big on.

399
00:21:57.720 --> 00:22:01.960
<v Speaker 2>The tournament, but you know, I I can't watch regular season.

400
00:22:02.400 --> 00:22:07.000
<v Speaker 2>It's just a slog outside. Duke unc is like, whose

401
00:22:07.079 --> 00:22:07.680
<v Speaker 2>who cares?

402
00:22:08.160 --> 00:22:09.799
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's a rough watch, dude.

403
00:22:10.400 --> 00:22:12.759
<v Speaker 2>The two threason is hard to watch and they're not

404
00:22:12.839 --> 00:22:18.400
<v Speaker 2>great shooters, but the tournament one game elimination makes it easy.

405
00:22:18.920 --> 00:22:22.319
<v Speaker 2>So I I really I'm college basketball casual and I'm

406
00:22:22.400 --> 00:22:24.599
<v Speaker 2>kind of just under the mindset of whoever they draft.

407
00:22:24.640 --> 00:22:26.559
<v Speaker 2>I'll do a deep dive on then because I don't

408
00:22:26.599 --> 00:22:29.319
<v Speaker 2>want to have to run through thirty different guys that

409
00:22:29.480 --> 00:22:30.240
<v Speaker 2>I didn't watch.

410
00:22:31.119 --> 00:22:34.400
<v Speaker 1>I know, I'm reading some of the second round draft mocks.

411
00:22:34.480 --> 00:22:37.119
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, I don't know if it's the Lord's work

412
00:22:37.160 --> 00:22:39.400
<v Speaker 1>those people are putting in, but it's some kind of

413
00:22:39.519 --> 00:22:40.400
<v Speaker 1>work because it's just.

414
00:22:40.480 --> 00:22:44.400
<v Speaker 3>Like this, Like what do you mean like college basketball sikos?

415
00:22:44.839 --> 00:22:50.880
<v Speaker 1>Dude? The pool is just so large. Set your handle

416
00:22:50.960 --> 00:22:54.079
<v Speaker 1>giving us our version of the hook, which is dip time.

417
00:22:55.039 --> 00:22:56.960
<v Speaker 1>Did you bring a dip at him? It's a short week,

418
00:22:57.039 --> 00:22:58.640
<v Speaker 1>so if you don't have one, I think it's it

419
00:22:58.720 --> 00:22:59.599
<v Speaker 1>can be excused.

420
00:23:01.039 --> 00:23:01.559
<v Speaker 3>I have one?

421
00:23:01.960 --> 00:23:02.240
<v Speaker 1>Would you?

422
00:23:03.079 --> 00:23:05.799
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if it will compete with my last two?

423
00:23:06.559 --> 00:23:08.839
<v Speaker 1>Oh, we should sorry before we get into it. If

424
00:23:08.839 --> 00:23:11.759
<v Speaker 1>you're new to the show. The show's name is Clips

425
00:23:11.839 --> 00:23:15.319
<v Speaker 1>and Dip. In the off season, just in the off season,

426
00:23:16.119 --> 00:23:19.279
<v Speaker 1>we bring a dip on and either make it. We

427
00:23:19.400 --> 00:23:21.000
<v Speaker 1>either make a dip or buy a dip, and then

428
00:23:21.000 --> 00:23:22.799
<v Speaker 1>we judge if we would bring it to a barbecue.

429
00:23:24.519 --> 00:23:26.559
<v Speaker 1>Usually we get all of our dips are good choices.

430
00:23:27.880 --> 00:23:30.000
<v Speaker 1>But that is that's what we do here, only in

431
00:23:30.039 --> 00:23:30.680
<v Speaker 1>the off season.

432
00:23:31.799 --> 00:23:35.759
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Adam, go ahead, because those of the doctors and

433
00:23:35.799 --> 00:23:40.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm I'm supposed to not drive right now. I had

434
00:23:40.839 --> 00:23:43.440
<v Speaker 2>to check the fridge and see what I could concoct

435
00:23:43.519 --> 00:23:47.920
<v Speaker 2>here and h thirds out after going with tostitos cheese

436
00:23:47.960 --> 00:23:50.400
<v Speaker 2>a couple of weeks ago and then last week to

437
00:23:50.480 --> 00:23:51.680
<v Speaker 2>Potle's wacamoli.

438
00:23:52.799 --> 00:23:53.480
<v Speaker 3>My either go to.

439
00:23:55.240 --> 00:24:01.960
<v Speaker 2>Chibani zero sugar mixed berry. That's yogurt yogurt dip. If

440
00:24:02.039 --> 00:24:03.519
<v Speaker 2>dunkeruse could do it, so could I?

441
00:24:06.000 --> 00:24:06.880
<v Speaker 1>All right, that's fair.

442
00:24:07.039 --> 00:24:09.640
<v Speaker 3>Honestly, I'll take the dip casual.

443
00:24:10.960 --> 00:24:14.039
<v Speaker 1>That's a good Uh. If Dunkers can do it, so

444
00:24:14.160 --> 00:24:15.599
<v Speaker 1>can I as good? Would you bring that to a

445
00:24:15.680 --> 00:24:16.920
<v Speaker 1>barbecue as a dip?

446
00:24:18.559 --> 00:24:21.200
<v Speaker 2>Like, Hey, guys, you want to get your probiotics in.

447
00:24:21.319 --> 00:24:23.039
<v Speaker 2>This is good for your gut health here before you

448
00:24:23.119 --> 00:24:25.240
<v Speaker 2>eat all that through it the barbecue. This will this

449
00:24:25.279 --> 00:24:27.160
<v Speaker 2>will set your ride and make you feel good tomorrow.

450
00:24:28.359 --> 00:24:30.400
<v Speaker 1>No, I wouldn't, saying it sounds like you're kind of

451
00:24:30.440 --> 00:24:32.319
<v Speaker 1>trying to sell it to the people at the barbecue.

452
00:24:33.759 --> 00:24:34.759
<v Speaker 3>Hard cell, all.

453
00:24:34.720 --> 00:24:36.000
<v Speaker 1>Right, So that's a no on that one.

454
00:24:36.119 --> 00:24:36.599
<v Speaker 2>I went.

455
00:24:38.319 --> 00:24:43.079
<v Speaker 1>Kettle brand crinkle cut pink salt chips with taking inspo

456
00:24:43.200 --> 00:24:46.079
<v Speaker 1>from what Will did last week. Everything and the low

457
00:24:46.200 --> 00:24:49.400
<v Speaker 1>ta Greek style yogurt dip.

458
00:24:51.039 --> 00:24:52.880
<v Speaker 3>Is that from it is?

459
00:24:53.279 --> 00:24:55.920
<v Speaker 1>I went as gringo as I could possibly go before

460
00:24:56.000 --> 00:24:58.240
<v Speaker 1>this Mexico match, which was go to Trader Joe's and

461
00:24:58.319 --> 00:25:02.839
<v Speaker 1>buy in a low tase style dip. Ray is giving.

462
00:25:03.319 --> 00:25:04.880
<v Speaker 1>I would bring this to the barbecue. This is a

463
00:25:04.880 --> 00:25:09.079
<v Speaker 1>good yp. Ray's giving you the red card. Pablo Tory

464
00:25:10.720 --> 00:25:14.599
<v Speaker 1>needs to investigate Adam's dipp decisions. Per Alex Webb, he

465
00:25:14.680 --> 00:25:18.839
<v Speaker 1>does follow me, shar Is saying, no, girt, Pablo follows you.

466
00:25:20.200 --> 00:25:23.599
<v Speaker 2>After I did an episode called Adam Finds Out, Uh,

467
00:25:24.039 --> 00:25:25.440
<v Speaker 2>he started following me the day.

468
00:25:25.519 --> 00:25:26.240
<v Speaker 3>The next day.

469
00:25:28.000 --> 00:25:29.079
<v Speaker 1>He's gonna have you on the pod.

470
00:25:31.079 --> 00:25:32.960
<v Speaker 3>I feel like that would end up with me getting fired.

471
00:25:33.680 --> 00:25:35.400
<v Speaker 1>It's just freaking out.

472
00:25:37.400 --> 00:25:37.680
<v Speaker 2>All right.

473
00:25:37.680 --> 00:25:39.599
<v Speaker 1>Do we have any final thoughts on this draft? I

474
00:25:39.720 --> 00:25:42.200
<v Speaker 1>just I'm like you, I want it to get here.

475
00:25:42.359 --> 00:25:47.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm tired of seeing reports. I don't know who to

476
00:25:47.359 --> 00:25:50.839
<v Speaker 1>trust other than the players themselves when they talk about workouts.

477
00:25:52.920 --> 00:25:55.079
<v Speaker 2>Is he's saying yogurt not in a cup? Is a

478
00:25:55.160 --> 00:25:57.960
<v Speaker 2>dip like dips coming cups? Why is the cup the

479
00:25:58.039 --> 00:25:58.519
<v Speaker 2>problem here?

480
00:25:59.160 --> 00:26:02.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, dips can come in cups. What is this but

481
00:26:02.400 --> 00:26:03.039
<v Speaker 1>a flat cup?

482
00:26:05.079 --> 00:26:10.079
<v Speaker 3>I am exhausted with the Clippers are working out this guy?

483
00:26:10.279 --> 00:26:11.160
<v Speaker 3>What about this guy?

484
00:26:11.240 --> 00:26:14.279
<v Speaker 2>And people who are already stands of certain players before

485
00:26:14.319 --> 00:26:17.000
<v Speaker 2>they have stepped on an NBA court is wild to me?

486
00:26:17.599 --> 00:26:19.799
<v Speaker 2>If we don't take a cup, I'm crashing out and

487
00:26:19.880 --> 00:26:22.319
<v Speaker 2>I'm done with the Clippers. Like this is Come on, guys,

488
00:26:22.680 --> 00:26:26.839
<v Speaker 2>let's relax here, h It is a crapshoot. Still, we're

489
00:26:26.839 --> 00:26:29.039
<v Speaker 2>gonna do all this analysis and then it's gonna take

490
00:26:29.119 --> 00:26:31.160
<v Speaker 2>two or three years to find out if that guy

491
00:26:31.839 --> 00:26:34.880
<v Speaker 2>can actually be a quality NBA player. And that could

492
00:26:34.920 --> 00:26:38.079
<v Speaker 2>mean an All Star or a role player, contributor or

493
00:26:38.079 --> 00:26:38.799
<v Speaker 2>a superstar.

494
00:26:39.000 --> 00:26:39.400
<v Speaker 3>We don't know.

495
00:26:40.079 --> 00:26:41.519
<v Speaker 1>Hey, Chris Dunn was drafted fifth.

496
00:26:43.440 --> 00:26:46.119
<v Speaker 2>I would take the more I watch off Camboose or

497
00:26:46.160 --> 00:26:48.920
<v Speaker 2>if he fell, I would take him at this point with.

498
00:26:49.039 --> 00:26:54.799
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, dude. So if anything, I'm I kind

499
00:26:54.839 --> 00:26:57.680
<v Speaker 1>of think the Jazz or the Bulls are going to

500
00:26:57.759 --> 00:26:58.480
<v Speaker 1>do something weird.

501
00:26:59.759 --> 00:27:00.359
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what.

502
00:27:01.359 --> 00:27:04.279
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what, but I think something weird is

503
00:27:04.319 --> 00:27:06.279
<v Speaker 1>going to happen with the Bulls, and one of those

504
00:27:06.319 --> 00:27:08.519
<v Speaker 1>top four guys is maybe gonna fall to the Clippers

505
00:27:08.799 --> 00:27:10.119
<v Speaker 1>and they'll be like, wait, what the hell?

506
00:27:11.279 --> 00:27:13.599
<v Speaker 2>I think there's I put it in like a thirty

507
00:27:13.640 --> 00:27:16.559
<v Speaker 2>percent chance that one of the supposed locked in top

508
00:27:16.599 --> 00:27:18.079
<v Speaker 2>four guys drops out of it.

509
00:27:18.920 --> 00:27:21.480
<v Speaker 1>I think, yeah, I totally agree, and maybe.

510
00:27:21.720 --> 00:27:22.799
<v Speaker 3>Then it makes it real easy.

511
00:27:23.759 --> 00:27:26.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, very true. Maybe the Kings move up even further

512
00:27:26.759 --> 00:27:27.559
<v Speaker 1>than people will think.

513
00:27:27.640 --> 00:27:33.839
<v Speaker 2>You know what I'm saying like, yeah, that is definitely

514
00:27:34.319 --> 00:27:37.759
<v Speaker 2>a possibility, especially when you don't know, like we don't

515
00:27:37.799 --> 00:27:40.839
<v Speaker 2>know who Washington for sure is going to take. You know.

516
00:27:41.400 --> 00:27:43.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, the other thing, here's a new here's another thing

517
00:27:44.000 --> 00:27:46.279
<v Speaker 1>that annoys me. Sorry, because we've been kind of talking

518
00:27:46.319 --> 00:27:49.559
<v Speaker 1>about it the whole like he's only working out. He

519
00:27:49.680 --> 00:27:50.680
<v Speaker 1>canceled his workout.

520
00:27:51.240 --> 00:27:51.440
<v Speaker 3>Did that?

521
00:27:51.640 --> 00:27:56.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, okay, great, yeah, move on.

522
00:27:58.160 --> 00:28:03.160
<v Speaker 2>Danny Ainge does not care. Yeah either, as his Son

523
00:28:03.599 --> 00:28:07.599
<v Speaker 2>or any of the ages. Uh, they will take you anyways.

524
00:28:07.799 --> 00:28:08.400
<v Speaker 2>They don't care.

525
00:28:08.839 --> 00:28:13.960
<v Speaker 3>I'm just smart. Stump is saying, Caleb Wilson, that's a lot.

526
00:28:14.039 --> 00:28:18.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh dude, Stump is saying, surprise, there's no Calshi with

527
00:28:18.240 --> 00:28:20.319
<v Speaker 1>the Clippers fifth round pick. I bet if you look,

528
00:28:20.400 --> 00:28:20.799
<v Speaker 1>there is.

529
00:28:22.480 --> 00:28:28.880
<v Speaker 2>Unfortunately, you think Stump hasn't already looked like ten times.

530
00:28:28.960 --> 00:28:34.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Stump, he's locked in. They're locked in. Oh yeah,

531
00:28:34.279 --> 00:28:36.119
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to get here. I'm excited. Are you going

532
00:28:36.160 --> 00:28:38.319
<v Speaker 1>to the viewing party that's going to be it? Into it?

533
00:28:40.039 --> 00:28:46.279
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, I don't know. I uh, I'm open

534
00:28:46.799 --> 00:28:47.880
<v Speaker 3>to whatever comes about.

535
00:28:48.640 --> 00:28:51.559
<v Speaker 2>We're gonna talk about production stuff on the air here

536
00:28:52.079 --> 00:28:52.839
<v Speaker 2>for scheduling.

537
00:28:54.400 --> 00:28:58.079
<v Speaker 1>I think. Uh, I've been watching some episodes of Curb lately,

538
00:28:58.160 --> 00:28:59.920
<v Speaker 1>and I think that's why I thought had this fun.

539
00:29:00.039 --> 00:29:02.880
<v Speaker 1>The idea in my head was everyone showing up to

540
00:29:03.000 --> 00:29:05.039
<v Speaker 1>the draft party and then they just like trade down

541
00:29:05.119 --> 00:29:07.960
<v Speaker 1>to like thirteen.

542
00:29:08.119 --> 00:29:10.559
<v Speaker 3>Like they like trade out completely.

543
00:29:10.720 --> 00:29:12.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, just kind of like, oh, what the hell, Like.

544
00:29:13.480 --> 00:29:14.720
<v Speaker 3>We got five seconds guys.

545
00:29:15.160 --> 00:29:18.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, I'm excited though, because I do. Yeah, something

546
00:29:18.920 --> 00:29:21.680
<v Speaker 1>weird is gonna happen in that top four. It's gonna

547
00:29:21.680 --> 00:29:23.039
<v Speaker 1>be three or four. I think one or two is

548
00:29:23.039 --> 00:29:24.079
<v Speaker 1>probably locked in.

549
00:29:24.359 --> 00:29:27.119
<v Speaker 3>But I think somebody's taken a cup there. I do too.

550
00:29:27.240 --> 00:29:30.440
<v Speaker 1>Man, it's just like the buzz is growing.

551
00:29:32.559 --> 00:29:37.279
<v Speaker 2>People are far too confident in who the top four

552
00:29:37.519 --> 00:29:40.559
<v Speaker 2>is and who the next tier is after that. Yeah,

553
00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:46.680
<v Speaker 2>teams could analyze this stuff completely differently than the draft

554
00:29:46.799 --> 00:29:49.359
<v Speaker 2>experts and the mock draft guys, like, we have no

555
00:29:49.519 --> 00:29:50.960
<v Speaker 2>idea what their boards are going to say.

556
00:29:51.839 --> 00:29:53.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, him, if he said it turns into a Jalen

557
00:29:53.759 --> 00:29:56.319
<v Speaker 1>Brown welcome party, Yeah, that would be like just the

558
00:29:56.480 --> 00:30:04.640
<v Speaker 1>most what a nightmare? Yeah, that'll be if anyone goes

559
00:30:04.720 --> 00:30:06.880
<v Speaker 1>to the watch party, obviously, let us know how it is,

560
00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:08.640
<v Speaker 1>or let me know because I will not be there.

561
00:30:10.200 --> 00:30:15.240
<v Speaker 1>They're watching them. Comfortability of my own home. Him, if

562
00:30:15.279 --> 00:30:19.359
<v Speaker 1>he's not convinced something weird happens, Kawi is too happy

563
00:30:19.400 --> 00:30:22.279
<v Speaker 1>in Soko. That's fair. That does seem fair?

564
00:30:22.720 --> 00:30:23.440
<v Speaker 3>Does it look like?

565
00:30:23.599 --> 00:30:25.640
<v Speaker 2>Also, he's on vacation right now. Have you seen some

566
00:30:25.720 --> 00:30:30.680
<v Speaker 2>of those clips water ski Yeah, don't wakeboard thing.

567
00:30:31.240 --> 00:30:35.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, don't like that. But so, yeah, he's doing good.

568
00:30:36.279 --> 00:30:38.440
<v Speaker 3>Could you really move him right down?

569
00:30:38.640 --> 00:30:38.680
<v Speaker 2>Like?

570
00:30:38.799 --> 00:30:41.400
<v Speaker 3>Did you already tell the Clippers his wishes before he left.

571
00:30:42.079 --> 00:30:44.920
<v Speaker 1>Really funny. I'm going on vacation. By the way, here's

572
00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:46.799
<v Speaker 1>the place if you were to trade me, here's the

573
00:30:46.839 --> 00:30:47.640
<v Speaker 1>places I'd.

574
00:30:47.519 --> 00:30:47.880
<v Speaker 2>Like to go.

575
00:30:49.759 --> 00:30:52.039
<v Speaker 3>I guess twy six you could probably reach out to

576
00:30:52.039 --> 00:30:52.759
<v Speaker 3>get ahold of him.

577
00:30:52.799 --> 00:30:55.480
<v Speaker 1>But uhai though I don't know, dude.

578
00:30:55.400 --> 00:30:56.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Kawi goes off the grid.

579
00:30:56.880 --> 00:31:00.759
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, man. Yeah, he has a flip phone.

580
00:31:01.680 --> 00:31:05.839
<v Speaker 1>He's got the jitterbug phone for sure. Oh, I went

581
00:31:05.880 --> 00:31:06.319
<v Speaker 1>to Greece.

582
00:31:06.799 --> 00:31:07.400
<v Speaker 3>That's where it was.

583
00:31:08.599 --> 00:31:09.400
<v Speaker 1>Ray Are you with him?

584
00:31:10.720 --> 00:31:12.759
<v Speaker 3>Who puts up? Who runs the social media? I heard

585
00:31:12.759 --> 00:31:13.880
<v Speaker 3>it was his sister or something.

586
00:31:14.759 --> 00:31:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, we got some questions about the aspiration stuff.

587
00:31:17.200 --> 00:31:17.640
<v Speaker 1>We don't know.

588
00:31:19.880 --> 00:31:22.400
<v Speaker 2>I kind of expect something in the next three days,

589
00:31:22.720 --> 00:31:25.359
<v Speaker 2>Like I could see it like a news dump Friday

590
00:31:25.480 --> 00:31:28.359
<v Speaker 2>type thing where they try to kill it after all

591
00:31:28.440 --> 00:31:31.720
<v Speaker 2>the uh so all the morning shows don't get their

592
00:31:32.119 --> 00:31:33.400
<v Speaker 2>fight on it till Monday.

593
00:31:33.880 --> 00:31:34.119
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

594
00:31:34.960 --> 00:31:40.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they're gonna wait. Yeah yeah, maybe I might be

595
00:31:40.079 --> 00:31:43.079
<v Speaker 1>unavoidably detained tomorrow, but we'll go live if they get anything.

596
00:31:43.759 --> 00:31:46.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm also just like, yeah, I kind of forgot about it.

597
00:31:49.039 --> 00:31:51.279
<v Speaker 3>That's when it's gonna happen. It's exactly what it's gonna

598
00:31:51.359 --> 00:31:52.119
<v Speaker 3>be expected.

599
00:31:52.759 --> 00:31:55.440
<v Speaker 1>I need the eternal sunshine on the spotless mind myself.

600
00:31:57.759 --> 00:31:59.519
<v Speaker 3>I don't remember what that means, but I love that

601
00:31:59.599 --> 00:32:00.519
<v Speaker 3>movie when came out.

602
00:32:03.279 --> 00:32:06.240
<v Speaker 1>All right, well the aspiration stuff. Hey, let's just hope

<v Speaker 1>for the.

604
00:32:06.440 --> 00:32:11.640
<v Speaker 3>Best, right, I don't know what are we supposed to do? Yeah,

605
00:32:11.839 --> 00:32:13.680
<v Speaker 3>freaking that's been hanging over our heads.

606
00:32:13.960 --> 00:32:16.240
<v Speaker 2>I almost feel like, with how long this has taken,

607
00:32:17.279 --> 00:32:20.839
<v Speaker 2>maybe Adam Silver should take that into is a possible

608
00:32:20.920 --> 00:32:25.720
<v Speaker 2>disciplinary actions if there are any, Like why do the

609
00:32:25.720 --> 00:32:28.759
<v Speaker 2>clippers have to wait nine months or however long it's

610
00:32:28.839 --> 00:32:32.839
<v Speaker 2>been to birth this ruling, Like how is it possibly

611
00:32:32.920 --> 00:32:33.720
<v Speaker 2>taking this long?

612
00:32:34.079 --> 00:32:34.119
<v Speaker 1>Like?

613
00:32:34.279 --> 00:32:38.440
<v Speaker 3>How? And Soilber sounded frustrated with it before the final started.

614
00:32:39.000 --> 00:32:41.519
<v Speaker 1>Well, yeah, I mean they're paying the bill for what.

615
00:32:41.920 --> 00:32:45.359
<v Speaker 1>I know, it's the NBA and there it's a billion

616
00:32:45.400 --> 00:32:48.559
<v Speaker 1>dollar thing. But the money that this law firm is

617
00:32:48.640 --> 00:32:50.680
<v Speaker 1>going to charge, which again I believe is the most

618
00:32:50.720 --> 00:32:53.720
<v Speaker 1>expensive law firm in the United States or has the

619
00:32:53.799 --> 00:32:57.880
<v Speaker 1>most bill about something like that is extraordinary.

620
00:32:59.000 --> 00:33:00.359
<v Speaker 3>And so they're telling you that.

621
00:33:00.440 --> 00:33:02.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying that hurts them, but yes, rich people,

622
00:33:02.759 --> 00:33:04.119
<v Speaker 1>the one thing you don't want. They don't want their

623
00:33:04.119 --> 00:33:06.039
<v Speaker 1>money to be taken and they don't want to have

624
00:33:06.079 --> 00:33:09.079
<v Speaker 1>to use it, and they're getting charged by.

625
00:33:09.039 --> 00:33:13.559
<v Speaker 3>This law firm like billable hours. I understand that? Is it?

626
00:33:13.640 --> 00:33:14.559
<v Speaker 3>Any read though?

627
00:33:14.799 --> 00:33:18.759
<v Speaker 2>On if it was a slam dunk opening truck case,

628
00:33:19.119 --> 00:33:24.279
<v Speaker 2>then UH probably wouldn't take this long, right. Maybe there's

629
00:33:24.359 --> 00:33:28.000
<v Speaker 2>a lot of uh gray and uh difficult and understanding

630
00:33:28.279 --> 00:33:29.559
<v Speaker 2>and sorting through all the evidence.

631
00:33:32.319 --> 00:33:35.079
<v Speaker 1>And that guy already went to jail or he got sentenced.

632
00:33:35.599 --> 00:33:41.880
<v Speaker 1>Like yeah, someone said, announce it during the the tm

633
00:33:41.960 --> 00:33:48.880
<v Speaker 1>USA game on Friday. Perfect do it? Then, Adam, can

634
00:33:48.920 --> 00:33:50.880
<v Speaker 1>we get one positive thing before we head out of here?

635
00:33:52.599 --> 00:33:56.599
<v Speaker 3>Uh, let's see drafts on Tuesday.

636
00:33:57.680 --> 00:33:59.880
<v Speaker 2>You know, I hadn't thought much about that pick thirty,

637
00:34:00.720 --> 00:34:02.759
<v Speaker 2>and that could end up being a very valuable player

638
00:34:02.799 --> 00:34:05.599
<v Speaker 2>in a very deep draft. Maybe I do need a

639
00:34:05.640 --> 00:34:08.199
<v Speaker 2>deep dive on second round picks right now, because that

640
00:34:08.239 --> 00:34:10.880
<v Speaker 2>could be basically a first round pick in other years.

641
00:34:11.280 --> 00:34:13.159
<v Speaker 2>The thirty six pick this year could be like the

642
00:34:13.239 --> 00:34:15.079
<v Speaker 2>twenty first pick in another year type thing.

643
00:34:15.320 --> 00:34:18.599
<v Speaker 1>Dude, I'm telling you, check out Martin Ellie. Check out

644
