<v Speaker 2>But yeah, yeah, okay that's bits.

15
00:00:47.560 --> 00:00:50.920
<v Speaker 3>And pieces, so already somebody on the internet, deal interweb,

16
00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:52.119
<v Speaker 3>you know, on Facebook?

17
00:00:52.200 --> 00:00:53.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

18
00:00:53.119 --> 00:00:56.240
<v Speaker 3>Are they become the smartest people in this world. And

19
00:00:56.280 --> 00:00:57.719
<v Speaker 3>I'm fine with that. They could be as smart as

20
00:00:57.719 --> 00:01:03.320
<v Speaker 3>they want to be. That Our Bryant should have stayed

21
00:01:03.840 --> 00:01:08.359
<v Speaker 3>the year. Okay, No, he's fine being fourteen in the lottery.

22
00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:11.200
<v Speaker 4>He'll be fine. Yeah, he's gonna get his money. He'll

23
00:01:11.239 --> 00:01:13.560
<v Speaker 4>get a good deal at a good place. Yeah, and

24
00:01:13.599 --> 00:01:15.680
<v Speaker 4>he's gonna he kind of gets the clock started for

25
00:01:15.719 --> 00:01:18.159
<v Speaker 4>his pro career to get to that like third year

26
00:01:18.200 --> 00:01:19.799
<v Speaker 4>where the big contracts start to kick in.

27
00:01:19.959 --> 00:01:22.480
<v Speaker 3>He would not have got any better than he is now,

28
00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:25.560
<v Speaker 3>although maybe because you're a year older, right, if you're

29
00:01:25.599 --> 00:01:27.599
<v Speaker 3>if you're if you're not getting any better every year,

30
00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:30.959
<v Speaker 3>you're you're not getting any better, Yeah, which is the obvious.

31
00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:33.640
<v Speaker 3>But of course he would have gotten better, but also

32
00:01:33.719 --> 00:01:35.640
<v Speaker 3>his stock value would have probably stayed the same.

33
00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:38.680
<v Speaker 4>You know, and they talk about drafting on potential and

34
00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:40.640
<v Speaker 4>stuff like that. I mean, this is probably a perfect

35
00:01:40.680 --> 00:01:43.000
<v Speaker 4>example that he did he ever start a game here?

36
00:01:43.000 --> 00:01:45.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't maybe maybe maybe I don't.

37
00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:47.120
<v Speaker 4>I mean I have to check him. Basically, he was

38
00:01:47.120 --> 00:01:50.000
<v Speaker 4>not a starter, didn't play a lot of minutes, didn't

39
00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:52.200
<v Speaker 4>score a lot of points. Yeah, but you know when

40
00:01:52.200 --> 00:01:54.439
<v Speaker 4>you watch him physically, you go, yeah, he looks like

41
00:01:54.480 --> 00:01:56.280
<v Speaker 4>he's going to be a really good player. But that's

42
00:01:56.319 --> 00:01:57.879
<v Speaker 4>kind of I guess what the NBA is are looking

43
00:01:57.879 --> 00:01:58.400
<v Speaker 4>at these days.

44
00:01:58.480 --> 00:01:58.560
<v Speaker 5>Right.

45
00:01:58.640 --> 00:02:00.920
<v Speaker 3>Hey, by the way, we're gonna have something cued up

46
00:02:01.439 --> 00:02:04.959
<v Speaker 3>here after the break, right yep. My question to coach

47
00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:08.319
<v Speaker 3>Tommy Lloyd about Caleb Love and I have another thought

48
00:02:08.319 --> 00:02:10.680
<v Speaker 3>about that, so that but maybe while you're kind of

49
00:02:10.719 --> 00:02:13.360
<v Speaker 3>listening to us Jibber Jabber, could you see if if

50
00:02:13.639 --> 00:02:16.199
<v Speaker 3>Carter had a press converce today in San Antonio that

51
00:02:16.280 --> 00:02:18.639
<v Speaker 3>might not happen till after today when they have everybody

52
00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:21.360
<v Speaker 3>they drafted. But just in case, you know, he'll at

53
00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:23.840
<v Speaker 3>the press coverage if Mede me or may not.

54
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:27.000
<v Speaker 2>But Dave, when did you learn that there was this thing?

55
00:02:27.080 --> 00:02:27.840
<v Speaker 2>Was a two day thing?

56
00:02:28.599 --> 00:02:31.840
<v Speaker 3>I knew that you did last night was the first time.

57
00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:33.879
<v Speaker 3>I think they've never done it really, Yeah, because I

58
00:02:33.919 --> 00:02:36.120
<v Speaker 3>had to ask Bruce, I said, I was expecting around

59
00:02:36.159 --> 00:02:38.919
<v Speaker 3>two right away because it usually goes It goes real quick,

60
00:02:38.919 --> 00:02:41.159
<v Speaker 3>and it's who's going to give a crap about two

61
00:02:41.199 --> 00:02:41.879
<v Speaker 3>day's people?

62
00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:45.439
<v Speaker 4>Well, it's just programming for ESPN. They need something, They

63
00:02:45.479 --> 00:02:46.319
<v Speaker 4>need a lot of help.

64
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:48.919
<v Speaker 3>Have you seen all the criticism that they've received over

65
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:51.080
<v Speaker 3>last night that Colin Coward got drafted?

66
00:02:51.159 --> 00:02:54.680
<v Speaker 2>Last night he did, yeah, what's your name? What's your name?

67
00:02:54.719 --> 00:02:59.520
<v Speaker 2>The female host of the show, Colleen Andrews.

68
00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:04.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it was Cedric Cedric Coward and he says, oh, well,

69
00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:06.800
<v Speaker 3>calling Coward and they didn't take it back.

70
00:03:06.800 --> 00:03:08.120
<v Speaker 2>Everybody's continue to do it.

71
00:03:08.439 --> 00:03:11.080
<v Speaker 3>And if you if you watch U or listen to

72
00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:14.800
<v Speaker 3>or follow awful announcing that was okay. Hell, they could,

73
00:03:14.919 --> 00:03:17.280
<v Speaker 3>they could have a whole book on me awful announcing.

74
00:03:17.719 --> 00:03:20.000
<v Speaker 4>But you know what I'm saying, Yeah, you know, and

75
00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:23.280
<v Speaker 4>the whole NBA TV situation is kind of in flux

76
00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:25.800
<v Speaker 4>right now. Who knows what's going to be what next

77
00:03:25.879 --> 00:03:27.879
<v Speaker 4>year when the season comes back with you know, with

78
00:03:28.120 --> 00:03:30.840
<v Speaker 4>Amazon coming on and Pete Talk and NBC coming back

79
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:33.360
<v Speaker 4>and a lot of these guys like Richard Jefferson. You know,

80
00:03:33.360 --> 00:03:35.400
<v Speaker 4>I don't think is guaranteed to come back to that role.

81
00:03:35.479 --> 00:03:38.639
<v Speaker 4>It's a pretty prime job, being the NBA Finals early

82
00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:41.319
<v Speaker 4>on in your in your career. I don't know. I mean,

83
00:03:41.439 --> 00:03:42.879
<v Speaker 4>of course, all the you know, the tn T guys

84
00:03:42.879 --> 00:03:45.879
<v Speaker 4>are moving over to ESPN, right so, I don't know.

85
00:03:45.919 --> 00:03:47.680
<v Speaker 4>I didn't watch much of the coverage. I saw some

86
00:03:48.240 --> 00:03:49.840
<v Speaker 4>here and there. I saw it kind of late in

87
00:03:49.879 --> 00:03:54.039
<v Speaker 4>the first round after Carter had already been picked. But yeah,

88
00:03:54.120 --> 00:03:56.639
<v Speaker 4>I mean it's live TV things people.

89
00:03:56.400 --> 00:03:58.280
<v Speaker 2>Are And I don't blame her.

90
00:03:58.400 --> 00:04:00.560
<v Speaker 3>It's just that, you know, people jump on any nowadays.

91
00:04:00.599 --> 00:04:03.879
<v Speaker 3>You say anything badly, yeah or incorrect, we're gonna jump

92
00:04:03.919 --> 00:04:04.039
<v Speaker 3>on it.

93
00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:06.039
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, And they looked they catch you. I mean, it's

94
00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:08.560
<v Speaker 4>a high profile event. It's the biggest story of the night.

95
00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:10.360
<v Speaker 4>And you know, this is kind of the end of

96
00:04:10.360 --> 00:04:12.560
<v Speaker 4>the run for for ESPN this year.

97
00:04:12.639 --> 00:04:15.120
<v Speaker 6>It was boring kind of speaking on that. There was

98
00:04:15.159 --> 00:04:18.560
<v Speaker 6>a I forget which player it was. He was drafted

99
00:04:18.600 --> 00:04:21.279
<v Speaker 6>by the Raptors. I think it was Colin Murray. Boyles

100
00:04:22.920 --> 00:04:25.120
<v Speaker 6>looked like he was a bit upset that he was

101
00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:27.800
<v Speaker 6>going to Toronto, and you know, it got me kind

102
00:04:27.800 --> 00:04:31.959
<v Speaker 6>of thinking, like, how much do you think like money, like.

103
00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:34.439
<v Speaker 7>Now with nil and stuff like that, is gonna like,

104
00:04:34.519 --> 00:04:34.959
<v Speaker 7>you know, well.

105
00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:36.560
<v Speaker 3>They're gonn It's gonna keep him in the in the

106
00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:39.560
<v Speaker 3>league a little longer, there's no question, But it's not

107
00:04:39.600 --> 00:04:41.639
<v Speaker 3>a whole lot of money. Like if you're at Arizona,

108
00:04:41.639 --> 00:04:44.160
<v Speaker 3>you're gonna make two two hundred and fifty thousand dollars

109
00:04:44.759 --> 00:04:47.800
<v Speaker 3>and to me that's the world, right, But but to

110
00:04:47.839 --> 00:04:49.519
<v Speaker 3>them it's you know, whatever. But there's a lot of

111
00:04:49.560 --> 00:04:52.560
<v Speaker 3>dudes that aren't going to get drafted. I mean Nick

112
00:04:52.639 --> 00:04:54.759
<v Speaker 3>Big for that two fifty Yeah, kind of like I

113
00:04:54.800 --> 00:04:59.680
<v Speaker 3>would you know, So yeah, to your point, that's kind

114
00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:00.680
<v Speaker 3>of where you were going to go with it.

115
00:05:00.920 --> 00:05:03.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, a lot of the guys stayed because they knew

116
00:05:03.480 --> 00:05:04.920
<v Speaker 4>they weren't going to get the money. They weren't going

117
00:05:04.920 --> 00:05:06.759
<v Speaker 4>to get drafted. I should say, so they would, you know,

118
00:05:06.879 --> 00:05:09.000
<v Speaker 4>like Caleb Blove, maybe he'll you know, maybe he'll get

119
00:05:09.079 --> 00:05:11.639
<v Speaker 4>drafted tonight. But even so he's going to go in,

120
00:05:11.800 --> 00:05:13.519
<v Speaker 4>you know, if not, he'll go in as a free agent.

121
00:05:13.560 --> 00:05:16.439
<v Speaker 4>And maybe he was making more money here without question,

122
00:05:16.480 --> 00:05:18.639
<v Speaker 4>you know, without question. You know, they say, well, you know,

123
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:21.199
<v Speaker 4>how valuable is a fifth year senior these days?

124
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:24.199
<v Speaker 3>I mean there's very few where in the NBA. Oh yeah,

125
00:05:24.279 --> 00:05:26.079
<v Speaker 3>not they're not. They haven't been, you know.

126
00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:28.240
<v Speaker 4>I mean, look at the whole this was the youngest,

127
00:05:28.279 --> 00:05:29.680
<v Speaker 4>second youngest draft class ever.

128
00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:32.519
<v Speaker 3>Did you say that they're draft and they've always had

129
00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:35.920
<v Speaker 3>draft on potential potential? Yeah, fifth year dudes, are you

130
00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:37.480
<v Speaker 3>have to be really really good?

131
00:05:37.720 --> 00:05:37.920
<v Speaker 8>Oh?

132
00:05:37.959 --> 00:05:40.399
<v Speaker 3>Look at the Carter the who is the and I

133
00:05:40.439 --> 00:05:43.279
<v Speaker 3>should know this, uh, the guard from Florida.

134
00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:44.720
<v Speaker 9>Clayton, Clayton, that's him.

135
00:05:44.839 --> 00:05:45.279
<v Speaker 4>He made it.

136
00:05:45.600 --> 00:05:45.800
<v Speaker 10>Yeah.

137
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:48.560
<v Speaker 3>My point is he four years Yeah, four years and

138
00:05:48.600 --> 00:05:51.759
<v Speaker 3>he's kind of a rare dude. And he's a fantastic player,

139
00:05:51.800 --> 00:05:52.720
<v Speaker 3>but you know he's a rare.

140
00:05:52.600 --> 00:05:53.319
<v Speaker 2>Dude of four years.

141
00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:56.279
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, he kind of burst onto the scene at least

142
00:05:56.319 --> 00:05:58.839
<v Speaker 4>to me. I mean, I you know, as much as

143
00:05:58.879 --> 00:06:00.600
<v Speaker 4>I watch. I mean, all of a sudden, there he

144
00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:02.680
<v Speaker 4>was on you just weekend because you noticed him more.

145
00:06:02.879 --> 00:06:04.720
<v Speaker 4>I'm sure he was having a nice career going in.

146
00:06:04.759 --> 00:06:06.839
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, well you know where he started, wasn't he in?

147
00:06:07.240 --> 00:06:07.360
<v Speaker 9>Was it?

148
00:06:07.399 --> 00:06:07.800
<v Speaker 4>Iona?

149
00:06:07.879 --> 00:06:09.879
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? He was Rick Patino.

150
00:06:10.279 --> 00:06:12.720
<v Speaker 3>I think so you kind of you know, bet on yourself.

151
00:06:12.879 --> 00:06:14.879
<v Speaker 3>How many times did you hear that last night? Well

152
00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:16.439
<v Speaker 3>you kind of at the end. But there was a

153
00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:19.160
<v Speaker 3>bunch of dudes who bet on themselves. The guy from

154
00:06:19.399 --> 00:06:22.040
<v Speaker 3>Washington State went ahead, I think of Carter Bright.

155
00:06:22.199 --> 00:06:24.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, he but he transferred somewhere else.

156
00:06:24.519 --> 00:06:27.079
<v Speaker 3>He was he was at Eastern Washington, even in smaller

157
00:06:27.079 --> 00:06:29.519
<v Speaker 3>school before that. Division three went to Eastern Washington and

158
00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:32.079
<v Speaker 3>went to Washington State. I didn't really know of him

159
00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:34.639
<v Speaker 3>because he's out of the pack twelve anymore, so I didn't.

160
00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:34.839
<v Speaker 2>Know of him.

161
00:06:34.879 --> 00:06:36.639
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean, that really is the case. It seems

162
00:06:36.680 --> 00:06:38.279
<v Speaker 4>like a lot of these guys have bounced around and

163
00:06:38.319 --> 00:06:40.160
<v Speaker 4>they've kind of bied their time, and some of them

164
00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:42.519
<v Speaker 4>have been around for four or five years, but rarely

165
00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:45.319
<v Speaker 4>do they get picked. If they do, they'll wind up,

166
00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:47.399
<v Speaker 4>you know, maybe in the second round and then decide

167
00:06:47.399 --> 00:06:50.319
<v Speaker 4>going free agent after that. But you look at the list,

168
00:06:50.360 --> 00:06:51.800
<v Speaker 4>I mean, it's all a bunch of eighteen and nineteen

169
00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:53.240
<v Speaker 4>year olds basically after one year.

170
00:06:53.279 --> 00:06:55.560
<v Speaker 3>Well, Dave, I think this is a good question for

171
00:06:55.600 --> 00:06:59.439
<v Speaker 3>you and for my guy, right, because we're different generations.

172
00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:01.680
<v Speaker 2>Are you to watch it religiously?

173
00:07:01.800 --> 00:07:04.560
<v Speaker 3>A long time ago part of your age stopped became

174
00:07:04.600 --> 00:07:07.399
<v Speaker 3>my job unless I knew about Arizona players going in,

175
00:07:07.680 --> 00:07:09.399
<v Speaker 3>and I kind of stopped. I watched Golden State and

176
00:07:09.439 --> 00:07:12.959
<v Speaker 3>see the roster. But other than that or Arizona's when

177
00:07:12.959 --> 00:07:14.600
<v Speaker 3>you look at a roster, Dave, and you were watching

178
00:07:14.600 --> 00:07:17.600
<v Speaker 3>some playoff stuff, how many of those dudes did you recognize?

179
00:07:17.800 --> 00:07:17.959
<v Speaker 1>Right?

180
00:07:18.319 --> 00:07:20.360
<v Speaker 2>Not very many honestly.

181
00:07:20.439 --> 00:07:24.079
<v Speaker 4>Now. I mean even as you're watching the NBA in

182
00:07:24.120 --> 00:07:27.720
<v Speaker 4>its current form, you know, maybe I know a few

183
00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:29.480
<v Speaker 4>of the guys on each team, but there's a lot

184
00:07:29.519 --> 00:07:32.600
<v Speaker 4>of players coming from you know, overseas or you know,

185
00:07:32.839 --> 00:07:34.240
<v Speaker 4>just kind of drifting into the league.

186
00:07:34.480 --> 00:07:35.319
<v Speaker 2>In fact, I didn't.

187
00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:37.920
<v Speaker 3>I have you google who the guard from Okay See

188
00:07:38.120 --> 00:07:39.240
<v Speaker 3>was and where do you played school?

189
00:07:39.240 --> 00:07:40.160
<v Speaker 2>And you said Texas A and.

190
00:07:40.279 --> 00:07:42.240
<v Speaker 7>M Yeah, Caruso, Caruso.

191
00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:43.759
<v Speaker 4>I forgot about that.

192
00:07:43.800 --> 00:07:44.360
<v Speaker 2>I didn't know that.

193
00:07:44.519 --> 00:07:47.079
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean, he's he's made more headlines in the

194
00:07:47.079 --> 00:07:50.040
<v Speaker 4>pros when he was on the Lakers. Know, the Lakers,

195
00:07:50.079 --> 00:07:52.319
<v Speaker 4>he won a championship and he wins another one.

196
00:07:53.120 --> 00:07:54.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, I don't know.

197
00:07:54.759 --> 00:07:57.800
<v Speaker 6>I'm I'm not too much of a regular season basketball guy.

198
00:07:57.959 --> 00:07:58.959
<v Speaker 2>I don't know anybody that is.

199
00:07:59.040 --> 00:08:01.879
<v Speaker 6>Well, it's just like they lit twenty with the play in.

200
00:08:01.920 --> 00:08:04.279
<v Speaker 6>They let twenty teams into the playoffs, you know what

201
00:08:04.360 --> 00:08:05.759
<v Speaker 6>I mean. So it's like, why am I going to

202
00:08:05.839 --> 00:08:08.560
<v Speaker 6>watch when it's like you're letting more than half the

203
00:08:08.560 --> 00:08:11.160
<v Speaker 6>teams in and then it's like still goes on for

204
00:08:11.199 --> 00:08:12.519
<v Speaker 6>like a month and month and a half.

205
00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:15.600
<v Speaker 3>True, it's true because the end of mid apy yeah,

206
00:08:15.720 --> 00:08:17.680
<v Speaker 3>mid ap here we are at the end of June.

207
00:08:17.839 --> 00:08:19.839
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, so it's like, I mean, I don't know, it

208
00:08:19.879 --> 00:08:21.839
<v Speaker 6>kind of feels like why why watch the like keep

209
00:08:21.879 --> 00:08:22.759
<v Speaker 6>up with the regular season?

210
00:08:22.920 --> 00:08:24.480
<v Speaker 7>You know, know what teams are like doing?

211
00:08:24.519 --> 00:08:26.240
<v Speaker 6>Okay, which ones are the ones to look out for

212
00:08:26.279 --> 00:08:28.759
<v Speaker 6>the dark horses stuff like that. But I mean, other

213
00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:31.120
<v Speaker 6>than that, it's like just there's too.

214
00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:33.679
<v Speaker 4>Much other stuff going on for viewers. I mean, by

215
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:37.600
<v Speaker 4>the time we hit you know, May June, it's kind

216
00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:39.120
<v Speaker 4>of that time of year where you know, football is

217
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:41.320
<v Speaker 4>long gone, right, right, and there is time to you know,

294
00:12:10.039 --> 00:12:12.159
<v Speaker 3>needed a lot of gravel for my driveway, so I

<v Speaker 3>called Eric at Dorato Rock. He found out the amount

296
00:12:14.639 --> 00:12:17.000

<v Speaker 3>press conference with mister Carter.

375
00:16:18.000 --> 00:16:23.080
<v Speaker 2>Okay, all right, let's start second row relations.

376
00:16:23.120 --> 00:16:27.440
<v Speaker 17>First, which former Supers players would you compare your game

377
00:16:27.480 --> 00:16:30.639
<v Speaker 17>style to? I think immediately the first guy, I think

378
00:16:30.639 --> 00:16:33.879
<v Speaker 17>it was Kawhi just his defensive versatility, being able to

379
00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:36.919
<v Speaker 17>guard multiple positions early on his career. In just as

380
00:16:36.919 --> 00:16:38.639
<v Speaker 17>you saw his progression, he became one of the best

381
00:16:38.639 --> 00:16:41.279
<v Speaker 17>players in the world, arguably a top three player to

382
00:16:41.360 --> 00:16:44.200
<v Speaker 17>be playing basketball at a time where I mean Kevin Durant,

383
00:16:44.240 --> 00:16:47.519
<v Speaker 17>Steph Curry and Lebron were pretty.

384
00:16:47.320 --> 00:16:48.600
<v Speaker 9>Much solidified to be the top three.

385
00:16:48.639 --> 00:16:50.320
<v Speaker 18>But he was really making a statement that he was

386
00:16:50.360 --> 00:16:52.200
<v Speaker 18>one of the best players of the world as well.

387
00:16:53.480 --> 00:16:57.279
<v Speaker 19>First run in the middle, Hi'm moscazlogo the Daily Wild Hat.

388
00:16:57.279 --> 00:16:58.000
<v Speaker 7>Congratulations.

389
00:16:58.000 --> 00:17:00.360
<v Speaker 3>First of all, I'm betting drafted and how do you

390
00:17:00.399 --> 00:17:03.080
<v Speaker 3>see yourself fitting in with the san Ajunio Spurs.

391
00:17:02.759 --> 00:17:04.640
<v Speaker 2>And who are you most excited to play next to.

392
00:17:05.599 --> 00:17:08.200
<v Speaker 18>I see myself, like I said, being a guy that

393
00:17:08.240 --> 00:17:11.880
<v Speaker 18>can bring energy, toughness, physicality, somebody that's just going to

394
00:17:11.920 --> 00:17:14.720
<v Speaker 18>show up on a consistent basis and just work his

395
00:17:14.799 --> 00:17:17.920
<v Speaker 18>ass off. So in terms of that, I feel like

396
00:17:17.960 --> 00:17:20.319
<v Speaker 18>that's what I bring in. I'm looking forward to playing

397
00:17:20.319 --> 00:17:22.440
<v Speaker 18>with my guy d Hart. I mean it's been a

398
00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:26.519
<v Speaker 18>long time coming. We had a lot of conversations throughout

399
00:17:26.599 --> 00:17:29.000
<v Speaker 18>high school, whether I was trying to play together in college,

400
00:17:29.119 --> 00:17:32.160
<v Speaker 18>just maybe playing together at some point. So for him

401
00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:34.559
<v Speaker 18>to be my draft buddy and being able to both

402
00:17:34.559 --> 00:17:36.799
<v Speaker 18>go in the lottery and be able to represent San Antonio,

403
00:17:37.279 --> 00:17:38.000
<v Speaker 18>it is dope.

404
00:17:38.759 --> 00:17:41.799
<v Speaker 2>Third growing the right. Hey Bencouch MBA dot com.

405
00:17:41.839 --> 00:17:44.039
<v Speaker 20>What do you feel like you learned about the Spurs

406
00:17:44.079 --> 00:17:46.319
<v Speaker 20>and what they're looking for you from the draft process,

407
00:17:46.359 --> 00:17:49.079
<v Speaker 20>and then you know, with their history of developing players

408
00:17:49.079 --> 00:17:52.279
<v Speaker 20>and where they are, what's the forward opportunity to.

409
00:17:52.319 --> 00:17:52.880
<v Speaker 4>Look like for you.

410
00:17:53.240 --> 00:17:55.079
<v Speaker 18>I think the first thing I immediately noticed is just

411
00:17:55.119 --> 00:17:57.559
<v Speaker 18>top to bottom they just run different. I think that's

412
00:17:57.559 --> 00:18:01.079
<v Speaker 18>something you notice immediately with that organization. There very clean,

413
00:18:01.240 --> 00:18:03.720
<v Speaker 18>they get things done very quickly. They have very precise,

414
00:18:03.759 --> 00:18:06.680
<v Speaker 18>and they have intention behind everything they do. And I

415
00:18:06.680 --> 00:18:08.839
<v Speaker 18>think the clear message I got behind everything is they

416
00:18:08.920 --> 00:18:11.559
<v Speaker 18>trying to get back to the top, so being able

417
00:18:11.599 --> 00:18:13.400
<v Speaker 18>to win games at a very high level of being

418
00:18:13.440 --> 00:18:16.880
<v Speaker 18>able to compete for a championship. So that's the first

419
00:18:16.960 --> 00:18:20.559
<v Speaker 18>thing that I really got from the whole staff.

420
00:18:21.400 --> 00:18:23.720
<v Speaker 9>First shot here on the left, Carter, Congratulations.

421
00:18:23.839 --> 00:18:26.480
<v Speaker 21>Something you mentioned yesterday is that basketball is kind of weird,

422
00:18:26.839 --> 00:18:30.039
<v Speaker 21>like a constant striving for perfection, right joining a young

423
00:18:30.079 --> 00:18:31.720
<v Speaker 21>team like the Spurs, you know, how do you see

424
00:18:31.759 --> 00:18:33.680
<v Speaker 21>that kind of helping you is you guys are all

425
00:18:33.720 --> 00:18:34.759
<v Speaker 21>kind of learning this thing together.

426
00:18:35.319 --> 00:18:38.279
<v Speaker 18>I think the biggest thing is there's so many guys

427
00:18:38.319 --> 00:18:40.920
<v Speaker 18>on this team, obviously myself and Dylan, but along with

428
00:18:41.000 --> 00:18:46.000
<v Speaker 18>obviously Wemby and Steph Castle and d Fox and Harrison

429
00:18:46.079 --> 00:18:47.039
<v Speaker 18>and all these guys.

430
00:18:48.200 --> 00:18:49.960
<v Speaker 9>There's so much room for growth for this team.

431
00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:52.240
<v Speaker 18>And I think you're gonna look up and we could

432
00:18:52.240 --> 00:18:54.200
<v Speaker 18>definitely be one of those dynasties that you look back

433
00:18:54.240 --> 00:18:55.440
<v Speaker 18>on and you're going to be like, man, this is

434
00:18:55.480 --> 00:18:58.640
<v Speaker 18>a hell of a hell of a team.

435
00:18:58.799 --> 00:18:59.799
<v Speaker 9>First shot here on the left.

436
00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:02.400
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I'm first of all, I'm just wondering if you

437
00:19:02.440 --> 00:19:06.119
<v Speaker 4>know how much this makes Seawn Elliott's day having Arizona

438
00:19:06.160 --> 00:19:07.000
<v Speaker 4>Wildcat around.

439
00:19:07.279 --> 00:19:07.599
<v Speaker 9>Yeah?

00:19:12.680 --> 00:19:12.920
<v Speaker 9>Oh?

443
00:19:12.960 --> 00:19:17.519
<v Speaker 18>Wow, Dylan and I actually met playing AU tournament. We

444
00:19:17.519 --> 00:19:19.920
<v Speaker 18>played in the New York Runs and I'll never forget.

445
00:19:20.039 --> 00:19:23.440
<v Speaker 18>He was killing us, and I mean I was the

446
00:19:23.440 --> 00:19:25.400
<v Speaker 18>biggest dude on our team, so coach had me.

447
00:19:25.400 --> 00:19:26.200
<v Speaker 9>Guarding the five man.

448
00:19:26.240 --> 00:19:28.279
<v Speaker 18>I was like, Coach, like, I promise you I could

449
00:19:28.279 --> 00:19:30.279
<v Speaker 18>stop him. And I remember he came and walked over

450
00:19:30.319 --> 00:19:32.039
<v Speaker 18>to the bench and he was like, I promise you, you can't

451
00:19:32.039 --> 00:19:34.799
<v Speaker 18>stop me. So it kind of be in a full

452
00:19:34.880 --> 00:19:37.680
<v Speaker 18>circuit moment for us to be on the same team.

453
00:19:37.720 --> 00:19:40.000
<v Speaker 9>Now, I mean, I love that dude. He's a great dude.

454
00:19:40.039 --> 00:19:40.680
<v Speaker 9>Great family.

455
00:19:41.359 --> 00:19:44.000
<v Speaker 18>His father's always been great to me, always provided me

456
00:19:44.039 --> 00:19:49.279
<v Speaker 18>with great just I don't even know the word I

457
00:19:49.319 --> 00:19:51.119
<v Speaker 18>was looking for, but along with his mother, there's a

458
00:19:51.160 --> 00:19:52.200
<v Speaker 18>great people, great family.

459
00:19:53.039 --> 00:19:56.480
<v Speaker 8>Last real love Carter, Congratulations out at Sheena Quickie. A

460
00:19:56.519 --> 00:20:00.640
<v Speaker 8>lot of sports talk. We talked yesterday about uplifting and

461
00:20:00.759 --> 00:20:05.000
<v Speaker 8>highlighting the deaf community. Knowing yourself knowing sign language and

462
00:20:05.000 --> 00:20:10.079
<v Speaker 8>your mom being deaf as well being deaf. Now that

463
00:20:10.119 --> 00:20:13.480
<v Speaker 8>you are a professional player officially, Like, how do you

464
00:20:13.640 --> 00:20:17.680
<v Speaker 8>see your role either changing or growing in terms of

465
00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:20.559
<v Speaker 8>highlighting the deaf community. And do you see a lot

466
00:20:20.680 --> 00:20:23.160
<v Speaker 8>of those people in the community who are NBA fans

467
00:20:23.240 --> 00:20:24.240
<v Speaker 8>now being Spurs fans.

468
00:20:24.640 --> 00:20:26.799
<v Speaker 18>No, definitely, I think I just want to bring more

469
00:20:26.799 --> 00:20:29.400
<v Speaker 18>attention to whatever organization.

470
00:20:28.920 --> 00:20:30.599
<v Speaker 9>I was blessed to be draft by.

471
00:20:30.680 --> 00:20:34.759
<v Speaker 18>But obviously San Antonio just has a rich history of

472
00:20:35.279 --> 00:20:37.519
<v Speaker 18>having a lot of intention but having everything they do.

473
00:20:37.599 --> 00:20:40.240
<v Speaker 18>But I don't think my mentality towards it changes in

474
00:20:40.319 --> 00:20:42.400
<v Speaker 18>terms of the deaf community. It's something that's always going

475
00:20:42.440 --> 00:20:44.720
<v Speaker 18>to be important to me and always has been important

476
00:20:44.720 --> 00:20:47.480
<v Speaker 18>to me. But I mean, I had my family, the

477
00:20:47.559 --> 00:20:51.720
<v Speaker 18>Valenciva Scoopy Acts up in the crowd, and I saw

478
00:20:51.799 --> 00:20:54.799
<v Speaker 18>them when I was going to do my interviews and

479
00:20:54.839 --> 00:20:56.480
<v Speaker 18>I looked up and they were all there, signed and

480
00:20:56.519 --> 00:20:59.240
<v Speaker 18>I love you. So I'm more than grateful for them

481
00:20:59.279 --> 00:21:00.920
<v Speaker 18>and just everything they've taught me.

482
00:21:01.960 --> 00:21:03.359
<v Speaker 9>For sure, I had left him.

483
00:21:03.559 --> 00:21:05.839
<v Speaker 21>Yeah, I had a chance to talk to several players

484
00:21:05.920 --> 00:21:08.599
<v Speaker 21>yesterday about the idea of playing next to Victor Webbin Yama.

485
00:21:08.799 --> 00:21:11.119
<v Speaker 21>You know what is it that excites you most about,

486
00:21:11.279 --> 00:21:12.920
<v Speaker 21>you know, playing with a guy with his skill set,

487
00:21:12.960 --> 00:21:13.839
<v Speaker 21>his size is ranging.

488
00:21:15.039 --> 00:21:17.039
<v Speaker 18>I mean, I'm gonna just start off defensively because that's

489
00:21:17.079 --> 00:21:18.640
<v Speaker 18>why that's what I love to do.

490
00:21:18.759 --> 00:21:21.400
<v Speaker 9>I mean, I feel like I can just be ultra aggressive.

491
00:21:21.440 --> 00:21:25.720
<v Speaker 18>Obviously, you got to be smart, but just having the

492
00:21:25.759 --> 00:21:28.160
<v Speaker 18>mental stability of knowing you kind of have a monster

493
00:21:28.200 --> 00:21:30.519
<v Speaker 18>back there behind you that's gonna deter everything from the

494
00:21:30.519 --> 00:21:32.160
<v Speaker 18>front of the rim. It gives me an opportunity to

495
00:21:32.200 --> 00:21:34.400
<v Speaker 18>just be an elite defender and kind of push my limits,

496
00:21:34.680 --> 00:21:35.599
<v Speaker 18>especially on the ball.

497
00:21:35.720 --> 00:21:36.720
<v Speaker 9>So I think with.

498
00:21:36.720 --> 00:21:38.759
<v Speaker 18>That being the case, I'm just ready to be active

499
00:21:38.799 --> 00:21:42.079
<v Speaker 18>and be able to contribute defensively immediately and offensively. He's

500
00:21:42.079 --> 00:21:44.400
<v Speaker 18>a guy that I like to use the word gravity.

501
00:21:44.480 --> 00:21:48.519
<v Speaker 18>He's takes all the gravity in the room. So him

502
00:21:48.839 --> 00:21:50.599
<v Speaker 18>being that type of player, I mean, it's gonna open

503
00:21:50.640 --> 00:21:52.720
<v Speaker 18>up so many opportunities for myself dealing and so many

504
00:21:52.720 --> 00:21:54.240
<v Speaker 18>guys on this roster for us to grow.

505
00:21:54.400 --> 00:21:58.400
<v Speaker 17>I'm just looking forward to picking his brain. Sec how

506
00:21:58.440 --> 00:22:00.559
<v Speaker 17>much run are you gonna give the letting them the

507
00:22:00.640 --> 00:22:02.119
<v Speaker 17>race for Rookie of the Year.

508
00:22:03.240 --> 00:22:05.240
<v Speaker 9>I mean, one of us gonna get it.

509
00:22:05.279 --> 00:22:08.920
<v Speaker 18>So whether it's one or two or whoever gets it,

510
00:22:09.000 --> 00:22:09.440
<v Speaker 18>doesn't matter.

511
00:22:09.480 --> 00:22:11.359
<v Speaker 9>I'm just trying to win basketball games at a high level.

512
00:22:12.519 --> 00:22:14.880
<v Speaker 22>Second round the right carter not the most important thing

513
00:22:14.880 --> 00:22:18.000
<v Speaker 22>in the entire world. But you did rock number nine

514
00:22:18.039 --> 00:22:20.480
<v Speaker 22>in college, sir. You can't rock nine on the Spurs.

515
00:22:20.480 --> 00:22:23.119
<v Speaker 22>It's retired by obviously the legend Tony Parker.

516
00:22:23.519 --> 00:22:24.440
<v Speaker 2>What number you gonna rock?

517
00:22:25.839 --> 00:22:26.200
<v Speaker 21>I don't know.

518
00:22:26.240 --> 00:22:29.519
<v Speaker 9>I gotta look at who has with numbers on the team.

519
00:22:29.759 --> 00:22:31.319
<v Speaker 9>I don't know. That's a great question.

520
00:22:31.519 --> 00:22:33.319
<v Speaker 2>Is that like a number that stands out in your mind.

521
00:22:33.160 --> 00:22:36.160
<v Speaker 9>Like I might be meaningful to you. I know, Steph

522
00:22:36.200 --> 00:22:37.480
<v Speaker 9>got five. That's my dog.

523
00:22:37.519 --> 00:22:40.480
<v Speaker 18>I'm not getting that off of them.

524
00:22:40.599 --> 00:22:42.960
<v Speaker 9>I don't I don't know. Does d Fox were four?

525
00:22:43.920 --> 00:22:44.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeap?

526
00:22:44.240 --> 00:22:47.240
<v Speaker 18>I can't get four and four plus five for nine

527
00:22:47.319 --> 00:22:48.400
<v Speaker 18>when we got the one.

528
00:22:49.000 --> 00:22:50.319
<v Speaker 9>Dylan for sure gonna have two.

529
00:22:50.720 --> 00:22:53.759
<v Speaker 18>If nobody has two, I'm gonna have to figure something out.

530
00:22:53.880 --> 00:23:00.079
<v Speaker 2>All good, All right, thank you, Curner. That was good stuff.

531
00:23:00.839 --> 00:23:02.960
<v Speaker 2>What do you notice about his answers?

532
00:23:05.000 --> 00:23:07.039
<v Speaker 3>I don't know what he's looking for. He seems pretty sharp,

533
00:23:07.119 --> 00:23:10.200
<v Speaker 3>pretty quick. That that, and he's a very thoughtful guy.

534
00:23:10.319 --> 00:23:12.960
<v Speaker 3>I mean he's not a hey, look at me guy.

535
00:23:13.000 --> 00:23:15.559
<v Speaker 3>He's like, you know, very soft spoken. That's how he

536
00:23:15.599 --> 00:23:17.839
<v Speaker 3>was at press conferences. Unfortunately we didn't get to know.

537
00:23:17.880 --> 00:23:19.440
<v Speaker 3>The only guy that really did get to know was

538
00:23:19.480 --> 00:23:21.960
<v Speaker 3>probably Bruce because he troubled with the team. But you know,

539
00:23:22.079 --> 00:23:27.400
<v Speaker 3>he's they're at the podium. It's very very not transparent.

540
00:23:27.480 --> 00:23:32.319
<v Speaker 2>It's very uh what do you call it water down?

541
00:23:32.440 --> 00:23:33.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you know, so you get what you get and

542
00:23:33.920 --> 00:23:35.480
<v Speaker 3>everybody gets the same stuff and then you have to

543
00:23:35.480 --> 00:23:36.079
<v Speaker 3>write this stuff.

544
00:23:36.200 --> 00:23:37.000
<v Speaker 2>But there's that.

545
00:23:37.079 --> 00:23:40.319
<v Speaker 3>So you see a very soft spoken, uh sincere guy.

546
00:23:40.759 --> 00:23:43.599
<v Speaker 4>He pulled out that Kawhi Leonard answer pretty quickly too.

547
00:23:43.640 --> 00:23:45.720
<v Speaker 4>I wonder how much he thought about that. But I mean,

548
00:23:45.759 --> 00:23:49.119
<v Speaker 4>you know, referring to Lebron and Carmelo or something and

549
00:23:49.160 --> 00:23:51.160
<v Speaker 4>Steph All kind of being at the top of their game,

550
00:23:51.200 --> 00:23:53.759
<v Speaker 4>and you know, Kawhi kind of stepped in and try

551
00:23:53.839 --> 00:23:55.160
<v Speaker 4>to become a superstar himself.

552
00:23:55.160 --> 00:23:56.640
<v Speaker 2>But he's going into a team that's.

553
00:23:56.480 --> 00:23:59.319
<v Speaker 4>Got, you know, obviously great history of championships, and you

554
00:23:59.319 --> 00:24:01.480
<v Speaker 4>know there seem to be building. They've got the number

555
00:24:01.480 --> 00:24:03.440
<v Speaker 4>two pick, they get the number fourteen pick, and whatever

556
00:24:03.440 --> 00:24:07.119
<v Speaker 4>else they get tonight, right, Victor Wehn, Banaya Mayana whatever

557
00:24:07.160 --> 00:24:10.440
<v Speaker 4>his name is, coming back from injury. You know, a

558
00:24:10.519 --> 00:24:12.839
<v Speaker 4>new coach. Popovich is going to be stepping down.

559
00:24:13.079 --> 00:24:15.400
<v Speaker 3>We'll talk more about him in a second. We're gonna

560
00:24:15.440 --> 00:24:18.599
<v Speaker 3>go take a listen to the question I asked, you

<v Speaker 10>Oh?

00:24:21.559 --> 00:24:24.079
<v Speaker 7>How much time we have in the break?

564
00:24:24.119 --> 00:24:24.799
<v Speaker 2>Okay, let's do that.

565
00:24:24.880 --> 00:24:27.759
<v Speaker 3>So we'll go to my question to Tommy about Caleb

566
00:24:28.039 --> 00:24:29.640

<v Speaker 2>Hey, this is Stephen Dave Silver, So gentlemen, how are you?

655
00:28:56.920 --> 00:28:59.160
<v Speaker 25>Oh sir, I'm glad the Spurs are going to stay

656
00:28:59.240 --> 00:29:00.960
<v Speaker 25>quiet tonight. Last night was enough.

657
00:29:02.000 --> 00:29:04.440
<v Speaker 4>Well, they have no picks. They have no picks tonight.

658
00:29:05.640 --> 00:29:09.200
<v Speaker 25>They traded their thirty eighth to Indiana yesterday, like thirty

659
00:29:09.240 --> 00:29:12.599
<v Speaker 25>minutes for the draft started. All right, okay, well, and

660
00:29:12.640 --> 00:29:15.000
<v Speaker 25>I told Brian I guess Brian Wright said it's going

661
00:29:15.079 --> 00:29:16.759
<v Speaker 25>to be quiet tonight. So I guess they're just going

662
00:29:16.799 --> 00:29:18.000
<v Speaker 25>to sit back and watch what happened.

663
00:29:18.079 --> 00:29:22.440
<v Speaker 3>Oh nice, Well, your busy night included an Arizona guy.

664
00:29:22.759 --> 00:29:28.039
<v Speaker 3>What was the reaction down there after getting Arizona's guy?

665
00:29:28.440 --> 00:29:33.519
<v Speaker 25>I've seen Steve mixed reaction. Some say, oh, the project

666
00:29:33.720 --> 00:29:36.880
<v Speaker 25>ship him off to Austin immediately. I've heard others say

667
00:29:37.079 --> 00:29:38.920
<v Speaker 25>he's a three and D guy who comes off the

668
00:29:38.960 --> 00:29:41.759
<v Speaker 25>bench right now. So it's been kind of right down

669
00:29:41.839 --> 00:29:46.160
<v Speaker 25>the middle. In listening to Brian Wright's the GM's comments

670
00:29:46.160 --> 00:29:48.960
<v Speaker 25>from late last night, they do believe that he can

671
00:29:49.000 --> 00:29:52.920
<v Speaker 25>guard one through four and and they like his ability

672
00:29:52.920 --> 00:29:56.559
<v Speaker 25>to hit to hit three pointers. So I think they

673
00:29:56.680 --> 00:29:58.599
<v Speaker 25>probably view it as a little bit of a long

674
00:29:58.680 --> 00:30:02.119
<v Speaker 25>term project, but they love the athleticism. The one thing

675
00:30:02.160 --> 00:30:06.519
<v Speaker 25>that he did say, people asked him what surprised him,

676
00:30:06.559 --> 00:30:10.359
<v Speaker 25>and he said he was surprised that Carter was there

677
00:30:10.400 --> 00:30:13.559
<v Speaker 25>at fourteen. He said, we had him high on our board,

678
00:30:14.079 --> 00:30:16.599
<v Speaker 25>so it really kind of felt like it fell into

679
00:30:16.640 --> 00:30:18.720
<v Speaker 25>our laps and we felt fortunate that he was there

680
00:30:18.720 --> 00:30:21.559
<v Speaker 25>at fourteen. So they obviously had a high grade on

681
00:30:21.599 --> 00:30:22.319
<v Speaker 25>Carter Bryant.

682
00:30:23.000 --> 00:30:25.440
<v Speaker 4>It was kind of interesting too, because this last and

683
00:30:25.519 --> 00:30:27.359
<v Speaker 4>only year he played. You know, I don't think he

684
00:30:27.400 --> 00:30:29.480
<v Speaker 4>ever started a game. He didn't play a lot of minutes,

685
00:30:29.519 --> 00:30:31.400
<v Speaker 4>he didn't score a lot of points. But you know,

686
00:30:31.440 --> 00:30:33.839
<v Speaker 4>it seems like the NBA will draft on potential. Do

687
00:30:33.839 --> 00:30:35.680
<v Speaker 4>you think this is just another example of that.

688
00:30:37.319 --> 00:30:39.079
<v Speaker 25>I guess that I sort of wanted to turn that

689
00:30:39.200 --> 00:30:41.119
<v Speaker 25>question around on you guys. I mean, for a guy

690
00:30:41.640 --> 00:30:45.519
<v Speaker 25>that came off the bench in Tucson, it's crazy to

691
00:30:45.559 --> 00:30:48.359
<v Speaker 25>me that he winds up being a lottery pick. I mean,

692
00:30:48.559 --> 00:30:50.720
<v Speaker 25>how did Tommy. I haven't had a chance to listen

693
00:30:50.759 --> 00:30:54.480
<v Speaker 25>to Lloyd's comments yet, but Damien from KOLB is actually

694
00:30:54.480 --> 00:30:56.680
<v Speaker 25>sending those my way. But how did Tommy feel about

695
00:30:56.720 --> 00:30:58.359
<v Speaker 25>him during the pre draft process?

696
00:30:58.599 --> 00:30:59.640
<v Speaker 2>Exactly what you would think.

697
00:31:00.000 --> 00:31:03.079
<v Speaker 3>A very good kid, well spoken, a thoughtful guy can

698
00:31:03.119 --> 00:31:06.079
<v Speaker 3>play a great athletic ability. He just didn't get a chance.

699
00:31:06.119 --> 00:31:10.119
<v Speaker 3>But here's the situation with Tommy. Uh, he Carter was

700
00:31:10.240 --> 00:31:12.720
<v Speaker 3>very raw early and very timid. He didn't want to

701
00:31:12.759 --> 00:31:17.160
<v Speaker 3>ruffle any feathers. So Tommy had established his starting lineup right, uh,

702
00:31:17.200 --> 00:31:19.000
<v Speaker 3>and then he kind of eased him in a little

703
00:31:19.200 --> 00:31:21.799
<v Speaker 3>and he started to gain more confidence by that time.

704
00:31:22.039 --> 00:31:24.440
<v Speaker 3>Tommy didn't want to screw with a starting lineup, so

705
00:31:24.480 --> 00:31:26.519
<v Speaker 3>he didn't move him into the starting lineup, but he

706
00:31:26.559 --> 00:31:28.759
<v Speaker 3>moved him into the more playing time rule, if that

707
00:31:28.799 --> 00:31:31.920
<v Speaker 3>makes any sense. So instead of roughly feathers, he just

708
00:31:32.000 --> 00:31:32.839
<v Speaker 3>kind of eased him in.

709
00:31:34.160 --> 00:31:37.680
<v Speaker 25>Yeah, that's that's that's an interesting point. And some people

710
00:31:37.680 --> 00:31:40.400
<v Speaker 25>think that Carter maybe can be like you know, Bruce Bowen,

711
00:31:40.440 --> 00:31:42.000
<v Speaker 25>you know, just kind of hang there in the corner,

712
00:31:42.319 --> 00:31:44.680
<v Speaker 25>hit corner threes and then really d up on your

713
00:31:44.720 --> 00:31:48.839
<v Speaker 25>defensive assignment. Richard Jefferson, one of your guys did that

714
00:31:48.880 --> 00:31:50.960
<v Speaker 25>to an extent, not as well as Bowen. Didn't hear

715
00:31:51.000 --> 00:31:52.960
<v Speaker 25>with the Spurs that they kind of view him as

716
00:31:52.960 --> 00:31:55.000
<v Speaker 25>a guy that just kind of find your spots, find

717
00:31:55.000 --> 00:31:57.279
<v Speaker 25>your threes, don't be the hero, take him when you

718
00:31:57.319 --> 00:32:00.799
<v Speaker 25>got them, and really focus on defense. And he's also

719
00:32:00.839 --> 00:32:03.759
<v Speaker 25>excited too, because I guess he's known Dylan Harper. I

720
00:32:03.759 --> 00:32:05.960
<v Speaker 25>wouldn't say for a while. They're both they're both only nineteen,

721
00:32:06.000 --> 00:32:08.119
<v Speaker 25>but they knew each other in high school ball. So

722
00:32:08.160 --> 00:32:10.720
<v Speaker 25>it's kind of a cool connection between the second overall

723
00:32:10.759 --> 00:32:12.200
<v Speaker 25>pick there, Harper and Carter.

724
00:32:13.400 --> 00:32:15.039
<v Speaker 4>As I said, they have a nice little nucleus going

725
00:32:15.079 --> 00:32:17.880
<v Speaker 4>with Victor. And how's Victor's health? Has anyone heard from

726
00:32:17.960 --> 00:32:19.680
<v Speaker 4>him in the off season?

727
00:32:20.640 --> 00:32:22.839
<v Speaker 25>That was the very last question of Brian Wright last night,

728
00:32:22.839 --> 00:32:24.880
<v Speaker 25>And well, well, first of all, I'll answer the way

729
00:32:24.920 --> 00:32:29.400
<v Speaker 25>you asked there, Dave, Victor's been active. He spent some

730
00:32:29.440 --> 00:32:33.279
<v Speaker 25>time at a at a temple overseas. I think with

731
00:32:33.319 --> 00:32:35.920
<v Speaker 25>some monks and kind of kind of kept finding his

732
00:32:36.000 --> 00:32:38.720
<v Speaker 25>zen moment. He's been active all all over the world.

733
00:32:38.960 --> 00:32:42.839
<v Speaker 25>He's been traveling everywhere, and he's been seen all over creation,

734
00:32:43.000 --> 00:32:47.119
<v Speaker 25>so he looks fine. Brian Wright did say the very

735
00:32:47.240 --> 00:32:50.559
<v Speaker 25>last thing he was asked at his press conference was

736
00:32:50.559 --> 00:32:52.880
<v Speaker 25>about Victor said, I don't want to divulge too much,

737
00:32:53.200 --> 00:32:55.839
<v Speaker 25>but I'll just say that he's progressing fine and we

738
00:32:55.920 --> 00:32:59.039
<v Speaker 25>expect big things out of him. So as bad as

739
00:32:59.079 --> 00:33:02.359
<v Speaker 25>the shoulder of from brosis, if if that's what it was,

740
00:33:02.359 --> 00:33:04.640
<v Speaker 25>if memory serves as bad as that was off the top,

741
00:33:04.680 --> 00:33:07.200
<v Speaker 25>and it sounds like Victor will be on time to

742
00:33:07.279 --> 00:33:10.359
<v Speaker 25>be at training camp in September.

743
00:33:10.000 --> 00:33:13.079
<v Speaker 3>October before before you go of any you've talked about

744
00:33:13.079 --> 00:33:15.240
<v Speaker 3>someone saying or a couple of people saying that they're

745
00:33:15.319 --> 00:33:17.640
<v Speaker 3>viewing him as a project and why not shipping up

746
00:33:17.640 --> 00:33:21.640
<v Speaker 3>to Austin. Are those, in your mind credible people that

747
00:33:21.680 --> 00:33:24.000
<v Speaker 3>you would trust saying that? Because it all comes about

748
00:33:24.000 --> 00:33:25.519
<v Speaker 3>credibility from the people who are saying that.

749
00:33:26.839 --> 00:33:30.079
<v Speaker 25>I think they're lifelong media members that have been here

750
00:33:30.119 --> 00:33:32.519
<v Speaker 25>a long time, that have seen the Spurs way and

751
00:33:32.599 --> 00:33:36.480
<v Speaker 25>the Spurs culture of doing things. So I'll give you

752
00:33:36.519 --> 00:33:39.400
<v Speaker 25>An example Corey Joseph, a draft picked from a number

753
00:33:39.440 --> 00:33:41.680
<v Speaker 25>of years ago at the University of Texas who came

754
00:33:41.720 --> 00:33:44.119
<v Speaker 25>in while the duncan Era was still going. He actually

755
00:33:44.680 --> 00:33:47.079
<v Speaker 25>went to coach Pop at some point and said to please,

756
00:33:47.279 --> 00:33:50.519
<v Speaker 25>I'm not ready, send me to Austin. Let me learn

757
00:33:50.559 --> 00:33:53.759
<v Speaker 25>the professional ways. And when he came back you could

758
00:33:53.759 --> 00:33:56.000
<v Speaker 25>see how well their player development works.

759
00:33:56.079 --> 00:33:57.880
<v Speaker 4>So Carter's got to.

760
00:33:57.799 --> 00:33:59.759
<v Speaker 25>Know and they will let him know if we send

761
00:33:59.759 --> 00:34:01.839
<v Speaker 25>you to Austin. This is not a bad thing. We're

762
00:34:01.880 --> 00:34:04.640
<v Speaker 25>getting you ready for the big club on a nightly basis.

763
00:34:04.720 --> 00:34:07.279
<v Speaker 25>So not saying he'll spend some time there, it wouldn't

764
00:34:07.279 --> 00:34:09.880
<v Speaker 25>shock me if he does. If he does, it's it's

765
00:34:09.880 --> 00:34:12.800
<v Speaker 25>only for the very best reasons that he would go

766
00:34:12.920 --> 00:34:15.039
<v Speaker 25>up to Austin for for whatever the period of time is.

767
00:34:15.119 --> 00:34:17.000
<v Speaker 3>Well, the good thing from your end is that you're

768
00:34:17.039 --> 00:34:19.920
<v Speaker 3>getting a good kid, a well spoken kid, a.

769
00:34:19.840 --> 00:34:22.039
<v Speaker 2>Good story with with his history and his.

770
00:34:21.920 --> 00:34:25.559
<v Speaker 3>Family's history of the death, and has been an advocate

771
00:34:25.599 --> 00:34:25.880
<v Speaker 3>for it.

772
00:34:25.960 --> 00:34:27.840
<v Speaker 2>Right. I don't even know how to say it, but

773
00:34:27.880 --> 00:34:28.599
<v Speaker 2>you know what I'm saying.

774
00:34:29.320 --> 00:34:31.440
<v Speaker 25>So you I heard him asked about I heard him

775
00:34:31.440 --> 00:34:32.280
<v Speaker 25>ask about that last night.

776
00:34:32.360 --> 00:34:34.519
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Yeah, for sure, so, and you in your world

777
00:34:34.559 --> 00:34:36.360
<v Speaker 3>it's it's a good story, so you'll find good stories.

778
00:34:36.400 --> 00:34:38.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, there were some like Instagram stories I think with

779
00:34:38.639 --> 00:34:43.599
<v Speaker 4>sign language, you know, announcing the draft if you will. So, yeah,

780
00:34:43.599 --> 00:34:45.880
<v Speaker 4>he's really an advocate for that, so it'll be a

781
00:34:45.880 --> 00:34:46.960
<v Speaker 4>good story for you guys.

782
00:34:47.320 --> 00:34:50.199
<v Speaker 25>So they have a nonprofit here in the city a

783
00:34:50.239 --> 00:34:52.920
<v Speaker 25>greater San Antonio called Lighthouse for the Blind. So it

784
00:34:52.920 --> 00:34:55.039
<v Speaker 25>wouldn't shock me if he's if he's as good a

785
00:34:55.079 --> 00:34:57.639
<v Speaker 25>kid as you say he is, that he actually winds

786
00:34:57.679 --> 00:35:00.400
<v Speaker 25>up getting involved in helping out the local community here. Yeah, no,

787
00:35:00.440 --> 00:35:01.679
<v Speaker 25>he's I guess it's definitely.

788
00:35:01.760 --> 00:35:03.639
<v Speaker 9>I guess it's deaf. Sorry, sorry, not flind deaf.

789
00:35:03.760 --> 00:35:05.639
<v Speaker 3>Okay, just lastly, how are you doing. It's been a

790
00:35:05.679 --> 00:35:07.960
<v Speaker 3>while since you've we've seen you here in Tucson.

791
00:35:09.719 --> 00:35:12.199
<v Speaker 25>Going going good, going good. I had had a crazy

792
00:35:12.280 --> 00:35:15.079
<v Speaker 25>run with our with our UTSA baseball team. They were

793
00:35:15.079 --> 00:35:17.519
<v Speaker 25>a couple of wins away from the from the CWS

794
00:35:17.559 --> 00:35:20.760
<v Speaker 25>went out and got swept by uh by UCLA and

795
00:35:20.800 --> 00:35:23.440
<v Speaker 25>the super But they had a historical run. They never

796
00:35:23.480 --> 00:35:25.280
<v Speaker 25>had a run like that in program history. So we

797
00:35:25.280 --> 00:35:27.280
<v Speaker 25>were busy with that and I was excited to see

798
00:35:27.280 --> 00:35:29.119
<v Speaker 25>the Wildcats get back to Omaha. I know it was

799
00:35:29.199 --> 00:35:31.360
<v Speaker 25>kind of a short stay, but good to see their

800
00:35:31.400 --> 00:35:33.719
<v Speaker 25>program back at the CWS. They're one of those, they're

801
00:35:33.719 --> 00:35:36.039
<v Speaker 25>one of those you expect to get to Omaha quite

802
00:35:36.039 --> 00:35:36.280
<v Speaker 25>a bit.

803
00:35:36.360 --> 00:35:38.480
<v Speaker 3>Can I ask you a dumb question, Two you've gone,

804
00:35:38.480 --> 00:35:39.880
<v Speaker 3>You've been done almost ten years now.

805
00:35:39.880 --> 00:35:40.880
<v Speaker 2>I think maybe even more.

806
00:35:41.079 --> 00:35:44.480
<v Speaker 25>But my fourteenth year, fourteenth gone a long time.

807
00:35:44.519 --> 00:35:47.440
<v Speaker 3>So let me ask you, is minus minus the Spurs?

808
00:35:47.840 --> 00:35:51.840
<v Speaker 3>Uh is Tucson and San Antonio similar sports town?

809
00:35:53.800 --> 00:35:57.559
<v Speaker 25>So high school football is just it's almost bigger than

810
00:35:57.559 --> 00:35:59.960
<v Speaker 25>the second religion here, Steve, it is a massive, big deal.

811
00:36:00.400 --> 00:36:03.519
<v Speaker 25>High school sports in San Antonio is a really big deal.

812
00:36:03.559 --> 00:36:06.280
<v Speaker 25>And so I would say they're a little bit different.

813
00:36:06.039 --> 00:36:07.159
<v Speaker 4>In that way.

814
00:36:08.519 --> 00:36:11.400
<v Speaker 25>The UTSA is not near as big of a deal

815
00:36:11.440 --> 00:36:15.039
<v Speaker 25>as the u of A is in Tucson, but kind

816
00:36:15.039 --> 00:36:18.639
<v Speaker 25>of aesthetically, they're both outdoor communities and you know, kind

817
00:36:18.679 --> 00:36:22.000
<v Speaker 25>of you know, San Antonio is obviously a massive tourist destination.

818
00:36:22.760 --> 00:36:25.440
<v Speaker 25>You can say that about Tucson, but they're both outdoor cities,

819
00:36:25.480 --> 00:36:28.159
<v Speaker 25>a lot of things to do, So maybe maybe in

820
00:36:28.159 --> 00:36:30.920
<v Speaker 25>that way, but you know, the big ticket has always

821
00:36:30.960 --> 00:36:35.480
<v Speaker 25>been the Spurs. No matter what is happening, But we

822
00:36:35.519 --> 00:36:38.039
<v Speaker 25>do have a lot of events roll through here. PGA

823
00:36:38.199 --> 00:36:41.880
<v Speaker 25>just had another Final four back in March or early April,

824
00:36:41.960 --> 00:36:44.039
<v Speaker 25>whatever it was, as you guys know, so it's a

825
00:36:44.199 --> 00:36:46.840
<v Speaker 25>very very very happening place. Anytime I think it's going

826
00:36:46.880 --> 00:36:48.960
<v Speaker 25>to slow down for five minutes and sports, it does not.

827
00:36:49.920 --> 00:36:52.039
<v Speaker 3>Well right in your wheelhouse. Man, Thank you Benny for

828
00:36:52.159 --> 00:36:53.719

00:37:05.039 --> 00:37:06.760
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean when his training camp rolls on, it

837
00:37:06.880 --> 00:37:07.880
<v Speaker 4>will be good to catch up.

838
00:37:08.119 --> 00:37:10.480
<v Speaker 2>You'll be our Senatonio me anytime.

839
00:37:10.559 --> 00:37:11.679
<v Speaker 25>I appreciate the opportunity.

840
00:37:11.719 --> 00:37:15.800
<v Speaker 3>San Antonio correspondent, Vinnie, Thank you, Vinny, you got to

841
00:37:15.880 --> 00:37:16.199
<v Speaker 3>take care.

842
00:37:16.400 --> 00:37:17.280
<v Speaker 2>That was great. That was great.

843
00:37:17.360 --> 00:37:20.199
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, nothing different than you probably thought you'd hear. Right

844
00:37:21.039 --> 00:37:22.199
<v Speaker 3>about Carter.

845
00:37:22.519 --> 00:37:24.800
<v Speaker 4>No, I mean, you know, we kind of know the

846
00:37:25.679 --> 00:37:28.639
<v Speaker 4>scouting report and his personality that at least we've been

847
00:37:28.679 --> 00:37:30.679
<v Speaker 4>able to see, so you know, he's gonna be asked

848
00:37:30.679 --> 00:37:32.280
<v Speaker 4>to do a lot more of that, the interviews, and

849
00:37:32.320 --> 00:37:34.199
<v Speaker 4>they'll be doing feature stories on him, you know, as

850
00:37:34.920 --> 00:37:37.119
<v Speaker 4>you know they get closer to training camp and the

851
00:37:37.159 --> 00:37:39.920
<v Speaker 4>comparisons to other great Spurs players, They've got such a

852
00:37:40.000 --> 00:37:41.159
<v Speaker 4>history there that they.

853
00:37:41.039 --> 00:37:41.519
<v Speaker 2>Can look at.

854
00:37:41.599 --> 00:37:43.320
<v Speaker 4>It just reminds me of you know, Sean when he

855
00:37:43.360 --> 00:37:45.719
<v Speaker 4>got here and you know whatever, it was eighty nine.

856
00:37:45.760 --> 00:37:47.199
<v Speaker 2>So let me throw this at you.

857
00:37:47.360 --> 00:37:49.960
<v Speaker 3>Uh, they're gonna get two guys, right, they got the

858
00:37:50.360 --> 00:37:54.760
<v Speaker 3>second guy fourth round, was first second pick, second pick,

859
00:37:54.800 --> 00:37:57.679
<v Speaker 3>and a fourteen guy. So let's remember Miami last year

860
00:37:57.679 --> 00:38:00.920
<v Speaker 3>they got two you guys, Larson and kid from San

861
00:38:00.960 --> 00:38:01.559
<v Speaker 3>Diego State.

862
00:38:02.199 --> 00:38:02.760
<v Speaker 2>You should know this.

863
00:38:02.920 --> 00:38:07.239
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Okay, so they got and we thought, okay, they're

864
00:38:07.280 --> 00:38:08.440
<v Speaker 3>gonna they might make it.

865
00:38:08.480 --> 00:38:09.920
<v Speaker 2>They might not make it. They might be in the

866
00:38:09.960 --> 00:38:10.360
<v Speaker 2>D League.

867
00:38:10.400 --> 00:38:13.440
<v Speaker 3>They played I think a considerable amount in the in

868
00:38:12.960 --> 00:38:14.880
<v Speaker 3>the Miami my system.

869
00:38:14.960 --> 00:38:16.719
<v Speaker 4>I have a good feeling about Carter. I don't know

870
00:38:16.800 --> 00:38:18.559
<v Speaker 4>what it is. I can see him playing, you know,

871
00:38:18.599 --> 00:38:20.519
<v Speaker 4>in Vegas or whatever, these you know, wherever these games

872
00:38:20.559 --> 00:38:22.639
<v Speaker 4>are going to be in the summer, in him shining.

873
00:38:22.760 --> 00:38:25.599
<v Speaker 4>You know, he's gonna be kind of let loose. I mean,

874
00:38:25.800 --> 00:38:27.679
<v Speaker 4>even when I was here, you know, he was kind

875
00:38:27.679 --> 00:38:29.440
<v Speaker 4>of deferring to some of the older guys. But now

876
00:38:29.480 --> 00:38:32.000
<v Speaker 4>they're all rookies basically or first or second year players.

877
00:38:32.400 --> 00:38:34.840
<v Speaker 3>I expect him to do well. Do you have the

878
00:38:34.960 --> 00:38:38.519
<v Speaker 3>roster up? Can you find the roster? Yeah, because that's

879
00:38:38.559 --> 00:38:40.719
<v Speaker 3>what it's gonna matter, right when? Yeah, where does he

880
00:38:40.800 --> 00:38:41.199
<v Speaker 3>fill in?

881
00:38:41.280 --> 00:38:41.480
<v Speaker 10>Yeah?

882
00:38:41.519 --> 00:38:43.320
<v Speaker 2>I mean they've got a lot of young players.

883
00:38:43.320 --> 00:38:45.920
<v Speaker 4>They also have dearon Fox and they got Victor and

884
00:38:46.119 --> 00:38:49.280
<v Speaker 4>now these two rookies kind of, you know, expected to contribute.

885
00:38:49.280 --> 00:38:51.119
<v Speaker 4>I would assume at least the number two pick will.

886
00:38:51.519 --> 00:38:51.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

887
00:38:51.960 --> 00:38:54.719
<v Speaker 3>And if if you're a first round pick, they they're

888
00:38:54.760 --> 00:38:57.960
<v Speaker 3>spending money on you, right, They're hoping that you pan out,

889
00:38:58.280 --> 00:38:59.960
<v Speaker 3>not like if you're a second round well we'll just

890
00:39:00.079 --> 00:39:02.719
<v Speaker 3>move you and do whatever, put you in the D League. Yeah,

891
00:39:02.760 --> 00:39:05.119
<v Speaker 3>but now they're obligated financially.

892
00:39:06.320 --> 00:39:08.519
<v Speaker 4>They got a new coach basically, you know, just took

893
00:39:08.559 --> 00:39:11.239
<v Speaker 4>over for Greg Popovich, who've been there forever. He's got

894
00:39:11.239 --> 00:39:13.320
<v Speaker 4>a lot to prove. He's gonna want to make his

895
00:39:13.400 --> 00:39:15.960
<v Speaker 4>mark these NBA teams. Look what Oklahoma City has basically

896
00:39:16.039 --> 00:39:18.440
<v Speaker 4>done with a lot of young guys. They're the youngest,

897
00:39:19.000 --> 00:39:21.519
<v Speaker 4>maybe the second youngest team ever to win the championship. So,

898
00:39:21.559 --> 00:39:25.840
<v Speaker 4>I mean, teams are blossoming pretty quickly. So what are

899
00:39:25.840 --> 00:39:27.320
<v Speaker 4>you what do you look at their roster?

900
00:39:27.760 --> 00:39:29.760
<v Speaker 6>Well, yes, I do have the roster pulled up, but

901
00:39:29.800 --> 00:39:32.280
<v Speaker 6>it's just like I just started thinking about the like

902
00:39:32.800 --> 00:39:35.400
<v Speaker 6>after okayc one, and it's they didn't even know how

903
00:39:35.440 --> 00:39:36.559
<v Speaker 6>to pop the bottles.

904
00:39:36.800 --> 00:39:38.440
<v Speaker 2>They they didn't know.

905
00:39:38.800 --> 00:39:46.039
<v Speaker 4>I'm like, man, so SGA's howled he's he's he's one

906
00:39:46.079 --> 00:39:48.440
<v Speaker 4>of the older ones. But everybody else a bunch of kids.

907
00:39:50.519 --> 00:39:51.599
<v Speaker 2>What do they have on that roster?

908
00:39:51.760 --> 00:39:56.480
<v Speaker 6>Getting Victor obviously, it says Chris Paul, but I don't

909
00:39:56.599 --> 00:40:00.840
<v Speaker 6>I think he's still there? Yeah, darn Felt, Darren Fox obviously,

910
00:40:00.920 --> 00:40:04.480
<v Speaker 6>Dylan Harper from Rutgers that got picked yesterday, Stefan Castle,

911
00:40:04.519 --> 00:40:05.679
<v Speaker 6>Harrison Barnes.

912
00:40:07.199 --> 00:40:09.800
<v Speaker 9>There, and then the other notable one.

913
00:40:09.880 --> 00:40:11.480
<v Speaker 7>I feel like his Bismac beyonmbo.

914
00:40:12.639 --> 00:40:14.840
<v Speaker 2>Okay, who I.

915
00:40:14.840 --> 00:40:18.119
<v Speaker 4>Mean he would be playing Harrison Barnes position. I would think, yeah,

916
00:40:18.239 --> 00:40:20.000
<v Speaker 4>you know, I would assuming that he's gonna go up

917
00:40:20.000 --> 00:40:22.440
<v Speaker 4>and down, up and down, you know, get some playing time,

918
00:40:22.599 --> 00:40:24.800
<v Speaker 4>come back. Yeah, it's probably the smartest thing to do.

919
00:40:24.840 --> 00:40:26.239
<v Speaker 4>I would guess if that's what he wants to do.

920
00:40:26.360 --> 00:40:27.719
<v Speaker 4>Or if that's what they think, you know, he would

921
00:40:27.880 --> 00:40:29.880
<v Speaker 4>he would develop better by going to play in the

922
00:40:29.920 --> 00:40:31.199
<v Speaker 4>G League. I don't know.

923
00:40:31.599 --> 00:40:33.679
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I don't pay attention too much until they come

924
00:40:33.760 --> 00:40:35.679
<v Speaker 3>back up. I say this all the time, at least

925
00:40:35.760 --> 00:40:38.320
<v Speaker 3>before you came on, Dave and to Jay. And this

926
00:40:38.519 --> 00:40:41.679
<v Speaker 3>is my experience of covering the u of a basketball.

927
00:40:41.960 --> 00:40:45.960
<v Speaker 3>If you're good enough, no matter the numbers, they're gonna

928
00:40:46.000 --> 00:40:49.000
<v Speaker 3>get you. You remember Robertus Jack Tobas. Oh, yeah, back

929
00:40:49.000 --> 00:40:50.559
<v Speaker 3>in the day, he didn't really play a whole lot.

930
00:40:50.599 --> 00:40:51.920
<v Speaker 2>He was kind of a stiff, big dude.

931
00:40:52.000 --> 00:40:52.079
<v Speaker 9>Right.

932
00:40:52.199 --> 00:40:56.039
<v Speaker 3>Guess where he went San Antonio, Right, but he was drafted. Uh,

933
00:40:56.320 --> 00:40:58.280
<v Speaker 3>he didn't play that much here. Did he have an impact?

934
00:40:58.400 --> 00:41:01.639
<v Speaker 3>Not really, but he was he was NBA kind of good.

935
00:41:02.039 --> 00:41:02.840
<v Speaker 3>That makes any sense?

936
00:41:03.039 --> 00:41:05.400
<v Speaker 4>Well, I mean once they get open, kind of away

937
00:41:05.440 --> 00:41:08.000
<v Speaker 4>from the Arizona program and they go into these combines,

938
00:41:08.039 --> 00:41:10.679
<v Speaker 4>they go to the visit the teams. You know, maybe

939
00:41:10.679 --> 00:41:12.800
<v Speaker 4>they're looking for something we just didn't notice, or maybe

940
00:41:13.039 --> 00:41:15.000
<v Speaker 4>you know, coach Elson didn't want to play them, didn't

941
00:41:15.039 --> 00:41:16.400
<v Speaker 4>have room for him at the time.

942
00:41:16.480 --> 00:41:16.840
<v Speaker 2>Who knows.

943
00:41:17.000 --> 00:41:17.159
<v Speaker 25>Well.

944
00:41:17.199 --> 00:41:19.320
<v Speaker 3>The one thing that I do know, because they mentioned

945
00:41:19.400 --> 00:41:21.920
<v Speaker 3>a number of times infecting the my fourth book or

946
00:41:21.920 --> 00:41:25.480
<v Speaker 3>whatever it was. The hundred things that that the NBA teams,

947
00:41:25.480 --> 00:41:28.559
<v Speaker 3>at least for Loot's time, that they knew they were

948
00:41:28.639 --> 00:41:30.760
<v Speaker 3>ready to play in the NBA because they knew the

949
00:41:30.840 --> 00:41:32.880
<v Speaker 3>fun them, they knew how to play the game. And

950
00:41:33.039 --> 00:41:34.880
<v Speaker 3>you know that you've heard that a thousand times that

951
00:41:35.000 --> 00:41:37.559
<v Speaker 3>the guys, you didn't have to kind of shock them

952
00:41:37.599 --> 00:41:37.960
<v Speaker 3>with something.

953
00:41:38.280 --> 00:41:38.800
<v Speaker 2>They've seen it.

954
00:41:39.000 --> 00:41:40.679
<v Speaker 4>One of the beauties too, and we've talked about this

955
00:41:40.719 --> 00:41:42.800
<v Speaker 4>as well through our time, is you know the guys

956
00:41:42.800 --> 00:41:44.480
<v Speaker 4>would come back in the summer, You know that the

957
00:41:44.559 --> 00:41:46.079
<v Speaker 4>pros would come back and they would play with the

958
00:41:46.199 --> 00:41:48.559
<v Speaker 4>UFA guys, they'd scrimmage with, and I think I'm sure

959
00:41:48.639 --> 00:41:50.480
<v Speaker 4>that helped. You know, we don't know, we're not really

960
00:41:50.559 --> 00:41:53.039
<v Speaker 4>listening to their conversations, but just having a guy like

961
00:41:53.119 --> 00:41:55.519
<v Speaker 4>Richard Jefferson or Channing fry Er, people like that have

962
00:41:55.639 --> 00:41:59.000
<v Speaker 4>played for almost twenty years each to come back and

963
00:41:59.119 --> 00:42:01.519
<v Speaker 4>mentor and just tell some of these guys who think

964
00:42:01.519 --> 00:42:02.119
<v Speaker 4>they know it all.

965
00:42:02.400 --> 00:42:05.599
<v Speaker 3>First they're eighteen, and you know, first of all, kick

966
00:42:05.639 --> 00:42:07.760
<v Speaker 3>your ass in the in the summer league right then,

967
00:42:07.800 --> 00:42:09.400
<v Speaker 3>and then tell you this is what you need to say.

968
00:42:09.400 --> 00:42:10.000
<v Speaker 2>They would come back.

969
00:42:10.000 --> 00:42:11.880
<v Speaker 4>Remember they would come back even back in the day,

970
00:42:11.920 --> 00:42:15.599
<v Speaker 4>they'd be camper I mean, coaches at the Lootse camp

971
00:42:15.679 --> 00:42:17.519
<v Speaker 4>and some of the guys would come back occasionally.

972
00:42:17.639 --> 00:42:17.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

973
00:42:17.960 --> 00:42:19.719
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if that's all even allowed anymore, but

974
00:42:19.880 --> 00:42:21.360
<v Speaker 4>it was. It was kind of cool in those years

975
00:42:21.400 --> 00:42:24.559
<v Speaker 4>where they were able to, you know, give some advice. Yeah.

976
00:42:24.599 --> 00:42:26.840
<v Speaker 3>Okay, So now we're going to go to like question

977
00:42:26.960 --> 00:42:29.079
<v Speaker 3>because there's another guy left. There's a couple of talentsend

978
00:42:29.360 --> 00:42:31.840
<v Speaker 3>name was mentioned. I don't think he'll be drafted. The

979
00:42:31.960 --> 00:42:34.519
<v Speaker 3>question is whether Caleb Love will be drafted. So a

980
00:42:34.559 --> 00:42:36.360
<v Speaker 3>couple of weeks ago, when we had a chance to

981
00:42:36.960 --> 00:42:40.199
<v Speaker 3>talk to Tommy, I threw a question at him. I

982
00:42:40.239 --> 00:42:42.679
<v Speaker 3>guess something you kind of did like, but it was

983
00:42:43.039 --> 00:42:44.760
<v Speaker 3>I don't think I thought it was a legit question.

984
00:42:46.639 --> 00:42:51.159
<v Speaker 3>Tuition obviously two great years here, nowhere near anybody's sights

985
00:42:51.199 --> 00:42:52.079
<v Speaker 3>of NBA stuff.

986
00:42:52.280 --> 00:42:54.559
<v Speaker 2>Just what do you really who are you talking to?

987
00:42:55.440 --> 00:42:55.480
<v Speaker 9>You?

988
00:42:55.760 --> 00:42:57.960
<v Speaker 26>And I must be talking to different people. Cab is

989
00:42:58.000 --> 00:43:01.480
<v Speaker 26>going to be in the NBA next year, is going

990
00:43:01.519 --> 00:43:03.840
<v Speaker 26>to be in the NBA. I have no doubt about him.

991
00:43:03.960 --> 00:43:06.960
<v Speaker 26>And and you know, there's this part of the evaluation

992
00:43:07.079 --> 00:43:09.039
<v Speaker 26>process where you know, scouts are out doing their thing,

993
00:43:09.079 --> 00:43:11.920
<v Speaker 26>and you know gms are and stuff too and check up.

994
00:43:11.920 --> 00:43:16.159
<v Speaker 26>But it's very scout driven early and you know, you know,

995
00:43:16.239 --> 00:43:18.880
<v Speaker 26>I recruited and coached and then left and he continued

996
00:43:18.920 --> 00:43:22.039
<v Speaker 26>to play at Gonzai. Guy kid named Andrew Demhart. And

997
00:43:23.000 --> 00:43:25.960
<v Speaker 26>you couldn't have told me Andrew Demhart wasn't going to

998
00:43:26.000 --> 00:43:27.599
<v Speaker 26>be a good NBA player. I would have never I was.

999
00:43:27.679 --> 00:43:32.159
<v Speaker 26>I would have argued with you all day long because

1000
00:43:32.159 --> 00:43:33.679
<v Speaker 26>I knew he was gonna be a good NBA player.

1001
00:43:34.079 --> 00:43:37.679
<v Speaker 26>And eventually, when these decisions get worked up to you know,

1002
00:43:37.880 --> 00:43:40.639
<v Speaker 26>coaches and the top front office guys, they might think

1003
00:43:40.639 --> 00:43:42.599
<v Speaker 26>a little differently than the scouts. And I knew once

1004
00:43:42.639 --> 00:43:46.159
<v Speaker 26>a coach Andrewnimhart, he was going to be like, what's

1005
00:43:46.199 --> 00:43:46.920
<v Speaker 26>wrong with this guy?

1006
00:43:47.239 --> 00:43:49.199
<v Speaker 2>This guy makes the right decision every time. He's tough.

1007
00:43:49.280 --> 00:43:52.119
<v Speaker 26>He's a great team guy. I mean, like, you know,

1008
00:43:52.159 --> 00:43:54.800
<v Speaker 26>he's good size, Like, show me one thing that's wrong

1009
00:43:54.840 --> 00:43:58.360
<v Speaker 26>with him. And I think that turned out pretty well.

1010
00:43:58.679 --> 00:44:01.239
<v Speaker 26>I have Caleb in the same thing. I think, you know,

1011
00:44:01.800 --> 00:44:05.039
<v Speaker 26>you know, the the right person is going to kind

1012
00:44:05.079 --> 00:44:07.760
<v Speaker 26>of get outside of the maybe some of the things

1013
00:44:07.800 --> 00:44:09.679
<v Speaker 26>that you're reading and they're going to make a well

1014
00:44:09.760 --> 00:44:12.960
<v Speaker 26>informed basketball decision from a basketball expert, and they're going

1015
00:44:13.000 --> 00:44:16.639
<v Speaker 26>to be like, Caleb Love's really talented. I don't know

1016
00:44:16.679 --> 00:44:18.360
<v Speaker 26>how many guys can go out and score thirty five

1017
00:44:18.400 --> 00:44:19.519
<v Speaker 26>points easy on Duke.

1018
00:44:21.719 --> 00:44:23.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean, don't he showed you something there?

1019
00:44:23.519 --> 00:44:23.760
<v Speaker 25>You know what?

1020
00:44:23.880 --> 00:44:26.119
<v Speaker 26>He might be a little inconsistent some of there, but

1021
00:44:26.280 --> 00:44:27.760
<v Speaker 26>I know there's not too many guys that can do that.

1022
00:44:28.199 --> 00:44:31.119
<v Speaker 26>And sometimes when you're evaluating and building a team, when

1023
00:44:31.159 --> 00:44:34.519
<v Speaker 26>a guy shows you a ceiling, you pay attention. Wow,

1024
00:44:34.719 --> 00:44:36.559
<v Speaker 26>he can score thirty five on Duke in an Insaney

1025
00:44:36.559 --> 00:44:39.440
<v Speaker 26>tournament game. What's just dig deeper on this one and

1026
00:44:39.559 --> 00:44:41.239
<v Speaker 26>dig deeper and then figure out how can I get

1027
00:44:41.280 --> 00:44:44.159
<v Speaker 26>this guy to hit his ceiling more often? And you know,

1028
00:44:44.199 --> 00:44:47.159
<v Speaker 26>how can I raise his floor? That's what those guys do.

1029
00:44:47.320 --> 00:44:51.719
<v Speaker 26>So I'm I'm I'm very confident in Caleb's opportunity to

1030
00:44:53.039 --> 00:44:54.679
<v Speaker 26>that He's going to earn an opportunity to be on

1031
00:44:54.719 --> 00:44:57.000
<v Speaker 26>an NBA roster, and then then from there he's got

1032
00:44:57.079 --> 00:44:57.360
<v Speaker 26>to make.

1033
00:44:57.239 --> 00:44:57.719
<v Speaker 2>The best of it.

1034
00:44:58.840 --> 00:45:02.679
<v Speaker 3>So I don't disagree with anything he said, especially the

1035
00:45:02.920 --> 00:45:06.239
<v Speaker 3>end five seconds, because he kind of walked it back,

1036
00:45:06.519 --> 00:45:08.800
<v Speaker 3>didn't he Yeah, you know he's gonna be in the NBA.

1037
00:45:08.840 --> 00:45:10.760
<v Speaker 2>He started with, and I'm not criticized. I'm just saying

1038
00:45:10.880 --> 00:45:11.760
<v Speaker 2>what he said, he's.

1039
00:45:11.599 --> 00:45:12.840
<v Speaker 3>Gonna be in the NBA, and then in the final

1040
00:45:12.840 --> 00:45:14.280
<v Speaker 3>seconds he's gonna get the opportunity.

1041
00:45:14.480 --> 00:45:16.079
<v Speaker 2>I have no doubt about that. He'll be.

1042
00:45:16.239 --> 00:45:18.199
<v Speaker 3>He'll be if he's not drafted tonight, He'll get a

1043
00:45:18.199 --> 00:45:21.559
<v Speaker 3>free agency chance tonight. By the end of the night,

1044
00:45:21.920 --> 00:45:23.599
<v Speaker 3>somebody will sign him, and then he'll get ready for

1045
00:45:23.679 --> 00:45:27.679
<v Speaker 3>the summer. That's undeniable. So it was kind of like

1046
00:45:27.719 --> 00:45:29.400
<v Speaker 3>really strong, really strong, and then he says, well, he's

1047
00:45:29.400 --> 00:45:30.000
<v Speaker 3>gonna get a chance.

1048
00:45:30.079 --> 00:45:31.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well I think too.

1049
00:45:31.199 --> 00:45:33.719
<v Speaker 4>As I was saying before, I think you get them

1050
00:45:33.760 --> 00:45:35.960
<v Speaker 4>in the summer league games, you get them with the teams,

1051
00:45:36.039 --> 00:45:38.440
<v Speaker 4>get them, you know, closer to some of his potential teammates,

1052
00:45:38.880 --> 00:45:40.760
<v Speaker 4>and let him run wild in the summer the league

1053
00:45:40.760 --> 00:45:42.440
<v Speaker 4>and see how he goes. He's got nothing to lose. Really,

1054
00:45:42.559 --> 00:45:43.480
<v Speaker 4>he's not going to get picked.

1055
00:45:43.840 --> 00:45:43.960
<v Speaker 3>You know.

1056
00:45:44.039 --> 00:45:46.000
<v Speaker 4>You go out there and do show what you can do.

1057
00:45:46.480 --> 00:45:48.199
<v Speaker 4>If it doesn't work out, you go g lee, you

1058
00:45:48.239 --> 00:45:49.760
<v Speaker 4>go to Europe or something like that. Maybe you come

1059
00:45:49.840 --> 00:45:52.679
<v Speaker 4>back or so. But what I'm afraid of sometimes these

1060
00:45:52.719 --> 00:45:54.960
<v Speaker 4>guys once they leave the country and they go to Europe,

1061
00:45:55.199 --> 00:45:56.280
<v Speaker 4>they stay for a long time.

1062
00:45:56.400 --> 00:45:58.039
<v Speaker 3>Yeah yeah, and then well the thing is they make

1063
00:45:58.079 --> 00:46:02.320
<v Speaker 3>a good living living. Here's my issue with kilob I

1064
00:46:02.360 --> 00:46:05.320
<v Speaker 3>think he's a fantastic player, and I wasn't asking the

1065
00:46:05.400 --> 00:46:07.880
<v Speaker 3>question for criticism. I'm says, this is what I've seen.

1066
00:46:08.199 --> 00:46:10.320
<v Speaker 3>There's nobody's on it. He's not on anybody's list. And

1067
00:46:10.400 --> 00:46:12.000
<v Speaker 3>he says, who are you looking at? And I says, well,

1068
00:46:12.039 --> 00:46:14.559
<v Speaker 3>it's the same one are the list of saying this,

1069
00:46:14.920 --> 00:46:16.199
<v Speaker 3>what do I have any I don't want a dog

1070
00:46:16.280 --> 00:46:16.559
<v Speaker 3>in the fight.

1071
00:46:16.920 --> 00:46:17.880
<v Speaker 2>But here's the guy.

1072
00:46:18.039 --> 00:46:20.920
<v Speaker 3>He goes to the combine, or doesn't go to the combine,

1073
00:46:21.039 --> 00:46:24.039
<v Speaker 3>doesn't get invited to go further, get sent to the

1074
00:46:24.119 --> 00:46:27.599
<v Speaker 3>D league thing. That's not my decision, right, that's their decision.

1075
00:46:27.840 --> 00:46:31.199
<v Speaker 3>So I'm thinking, what does he need to do after

1076
00:46:31.320 --> 00:46:34.519
<v Speaker 3>a year going to the NBA to test the waters?

1077
00:46:35.000 --> 00:46:37.079
<v Speaker 2>Does that make sense to me? What does he lack?

1078
00:46:37.280 --> 00:46:39.719
<v Speaker 4>I don't I don't know. I mean, I think I

1079
00:46:39.800 --> 00:46:42.039
<v Speaker 4>think now just the opportunity to get on, get onto

1080
00:46:42.079 --> 00:46:44.559
<v Speaker 4>a roster, get into one of most summer league situations,

1081
00:46:44.599 --> 00:46:46.760
<v Speaker 4>get into a place where he can play his game.

1082
00:46:47.159 --> 00:46:50.599
<v Speaker 4>You know away from Arizona and now it's just you

1083
00:46:50.679 --> 00:46:52.599
<v Speaker 4>know your yourself at this point.

1084
00:46:52.760 --> 00:46:53.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you're trying to make the team.

1085
00:46:53.880 --> 00:46:55.519
<v Speaker 4>There's only going to be a couple of roster spots

1086
00:46:55.519 --> 00:46:58.760
<v Speaker 4>open on any of these teams besides the top picks. Right,

1087
00:46:58.840 --> 00:47:01.239
<v Speaker 4>It's not like he's gonna have really a great chance

1088
00:47:01.840 --> 00:47:04.280
<v Speaker 4>just mathematically to make a team, especially when you come

1089
00:47:04.320 --> 00:47:05.079
<v Speaker 4>in as a free agent.

1090
00:47:05.280 --> 00:47:06.400
<v Speaker 2>That's what made it so much.

1091
00:47:06.320 --> 00:47:09.599
<v Speaker 4>Remarkable, so remarkable with with Pella Keyshot last year. I

1092
00:47:09.599 --> 00:47:12.599
<v Speaker 4>guess they were drafted, but still, you know, sure's not

1093
00:47:12.679 --> 00:47:13.320
<v Speaker 4>a lot of spots.

1094
00:47:13.480 --> 00:47:14.480
<v Speaker 2>There's not a lot of spots.

1095
00:47:14.679 --> 00:47:18.920
<v Speaker 3>And you have teams like San Antonio who are not obligated,

1096
00:47:18.960 --> 00:47:22.360
<v Speaker 3>but they have they're financially obligated to play the people

1097
00:47:22.400 --> 00:47:23.039
<v Speaker 3>they drafted.

1098
00:47:23.119 --> 00:47:23.480
<v Speaker 2>Exactly.

1099
00:47:23.559 --> 00:47:26.599
<v Speaker 4>There's some incentive to paying a lot of money to

1100
00:47:26.920 --> 00:47:30.079
<v Speaker 4>you know, de Aaron Fox and Wamby those guys are

1101
00:47:30.119 --> 00:47:31.159
<v Speaker 4>you know, taking up all the cash.

1102
00:47:31.199 --> 00:47:32.599
<v Speaker 2>But lets it like what Boston's done.

1103
00:47:32.599 --> 00:47:35.239
<v Speaker 4>They've just just getting rid of player after player because

1104
00:47:35.239 --> 00:47:38.159
<v Speaker 4>it's they're they're paying you know, way too much and

1105
00:47:38.239 --> 00:47:40.639
<v Speaker 4>the NBA salaries are out of hand and that's just

1106
00:47:40.679 --> 00:47:43.280
<v Speaker 4>the way it is. But you know, when you're when

1107
00:47:43.320 --> 00:47:44.960
<v Speaker 4>you have this chance, you might as well take advantage

1108
00:47:44.960 --> 00:47:45.119
<v Speaker 4>of it.

1109
00:47:45.320 --> 00:47:49.039
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, into to Tommy's point, I don't disagree with anything

1110
00:47:49.079 --> 00:47:52.719
<v Speaker 3>he said, uh saying what are you reading? What are

1111
00:47:52.719 --> 00:47:56.880
<v Speaker 3>you reading that Caleb is a fantastic talent. You suled

1112
00:47:56.880 --> 00:47:59.039
<v Speaker 3>to put thirty five on dupe? Yeah, you can play

1113
00:47:59.159 --> 00:48:00.239
<v Speaker 3>right right, Well.

1114
00:48:00.519 --> 00:48:01.440
<v Speaker 2>You could do these things.

1115
00:48:02.119 --> 00:48:04.119
<v Speaker 3>If people see you, they like what you do, you'll

1116
00:48:04.239 --> 00:48:07.000
<v Speaker 3>you'll find a spot of nothing to disagree with Tommy

1117
00:48:07.079 --> 00:48:09.480
<v Speaker 3>on any of that, because he's exactly right now.

1118
00:48:09.559 --> 00:48:12.039
<v Speaker 2>The chance is give me that chance. Just give me

1119
00:48:12.119 --> 00:48:12.440
<v Speaker 2>that chance.

1120
00:48:12.440 --> 00:48:15.519
<v Speaker 4>Well, hopefully you know the team's he's I'm sure he's

1121
00:48:15.559 --> 00:48:18.960
<v Speaker 4>got help with you know, his agents or whoever you know,

1122
00:48:19.039 --> 00:48:21.440
<v Speaker 4>scoping out you know, the best opportunity. You know, he's

1123
00:48:21.440 --> 00:48:22.960
<v Speaker 4>gonna want to go to a team that maybe isn't

1124
00:48:23.000 --> 00:48:25.760
<v Speaker 4>gonna have you know, five shooting guards already lined up

1125
00:48:25.880 --> 00:48:27.760
<v Speaker 4>ahead of him. You know, he wants to go to

1126
00:48:27.840 --> 00:48:30.239
<v Speaker 4>a place that's gonna give him a chance to show

1127
00:48:30.280 --> 00:48:32.119
<v Speaker 4>what he can do. Especially you know, I set it

1128
00:48:32.159 --> 00:48:33.880
<v Speaker 4>over and over here. Just get in those some of

1129
00:48:33.920 --> 00:48:35.840
<v Speaker 4>these summer league gas where they play you know, five

1130
00:48:36.159 --> 00:48:38.800
<v Speaker 4>to six games and show what you can do. And

1131
00:48:39.519 --> 00:48:42.199
<v Speaker 4>hopefully stick somewhere on some roster.

1132
00:48:42.679 --> 00:48:42.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1133
00:48:43.039 --> 00:48:44.960
<v Speaker 3>No, it's gonna be it's gonna be tough, but you know, hey,

1134
00:48:45.400 --> 00:48:48.800
<v Speaker 3>uh it's it's in the NBA. There are very few

1135
00:48:48.880 --> 00:48:51.039
<v Speaker 3>jobs in the NBA worldwide, right, you.

1136
00:48:51.079 --> 00:48:55.480
<v Speaker 4>Know, basically fifteen per team about it, right.

1137
00:48:55.599 --> 00:48:58.760
<v Speaker 2>Right, So five hundred spots. You better be good at

1138
00:48:58.800 --> 00:48:59.119
<v Speaker 2>what you do.

1139
00:48:59.199 --> 00:49:02.199
<v Speaker 4>You're getting paid guys like Lebron and Kevin Duran who

1140
00:49:02.199 --> 00:49:03.039
<v Speaker 4>don't want to give it up.

1141
00:49:03.239 --> 00:49:05.679
<v Speaker 2>I mean they're also they're playing in their twentieth seasons.

1142
00:49:05.760 --> 00:49:09.239
<v Speaker 3>There's that point, right, And we had Justin Gardner on

1143
00:49:09.400 --> 00:49:10.840
<v Speaker 3>yesterday and he says, you know, how could you not?

1144
00:49:11.000 --> 00:49:12.800
<v Speaker 3>I mean, here's the player of the year in the

1145
00:49:12.880 --> 00:49:15.880
<v Speaker 3>ACC right back in a couple three years ago, his

1146
00:49:15.960 --> 00:49:18.039
<v Speaker 3>player of the year in the Pack twelve Pack twelve twelve,

1147
00:49:18.119 --> 00:49:20.760
<v Speaker 3>and then a pretty good player here this last year.

1148
00:49:21.159 --> 00:49:24.199
<v Speaker 3>How did he not nick a roster? Yeah, because there

1149
00:49:24.280 --> 00:49:26.599
<v Speaker 3>was a ton of good players out there. Of the

1150
00:49:26.639 --> 00:49:28.840
<v Speaker 3>twenty or thirty people that got thirty people that got

1151
00:49:28.920 --> 00:49:31.000
<v Speaker 3>drafted last night, how many did you actually know?

1152
00:49:31.480 --> 00:49:33.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? I mean half no.

1153
00:49:33.679 --> 00:49:35.519
<v Speaker 6>And then like the other thing too, to go along

1154
00:49:35.559 --> 00:49:37.679
<v Speaker 6>with that is like the international players that doesn't even

1155
00:49:37.719 --> 00:49:38.559
<v Speaker 6>go to school.

1156
00:49:38.280 --> 00:49:40.360
<v Speaker 4>Here, right that it's like, and that's happening a lot.

1157
00:49:40.400 --> 00:49:42.159
<v Speaker 4>I remember how much we happened. There was a guy

1158
00:49:42.280 --> 00:49:45.559
<v Speaker 4>last night that was drafted, guy from China draft.

1159
00:49:45.639 --> 00:49:47.400
<v Speaker 3>And there was a video. He's like sitting up in

1160
00:49:47.480 --> 00:49:49.400
<v Speaker 3>the rafters. He wasn't even down on the floor. There

1161
00:49:49.440 --> 00:49:51.679
<v Speaker 3>was I think he was the last guy, last guys

1162
00:49:51.679 --> 00:49:52.159
<v Speaker 3>there in the end.

1163
00:49:52.320 --> 00:49:54.480
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, he thought he was going to be a Day

1164
00:49:54.559 --> 00:49:57.960
<v Speaker 7>two guy. Okay, and in the blue suit, I think

1165
00:49:58.000 --> 00:50:00.519
<v Speaker 7>it was it might have been what I thought, why yeah,

1166
00:50:00.519 --> 00:50:01.599
<v Speaker 7>ok no, that.

1167
00:50:01.679 --> 00:50:02.400
<v Speaker 2>Was the handsome guy.

1168
00:50:02.559 --> 00:50:04.440
<v Speaker 3>The other guy came out in the blue suit coming

1169
00:50:04.480 --> 00:50:07.239
<v Speaker 3>from the comming from the rafters or yeah, decide, but.

1170
00:50:07.400 --> 00:50:08.920
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, that was pretty funny.

1171
00:50:09.000 --> 00:50:11.079
<v Speaker 6>But I mean, like, right exactly a point where it's

1172
00:50:11.119 --> 00:50:13.519
<v Speaker 6>like everybody's trying to get these coveted spots and it's

1173
00:50:13.599 --> 00:50:15.960
<v Speaker 6>like you are great, but you got to realize like this,

1174
00:50:16.639 --> 00:50:18.679
<v Speaker 6>like this ain't a pond anymore, this is an ocean.

1175
00:50:18.760 --> 00:50:20.159
<v Speaker 7>Like you gotta be a big fish in the ocean.

1176
00:50:20.239 --> 00:50:22.719
<v Speaker 3>Sure at this point, sure, no matter how good you

1177
00:50:22.800 --> 00:50:27.320
<v Speaker 3>are and even circumstances. Yeah, Cory Williams talked about this yesterday.

1178
00:50:27.880 --> 00:50:29.920
<v Speaker 3>He was ready to go for Milwaukee, and I didn't

1179
00:50:29.920 --> 00:50:31.239
<v Speaker 3>know the story. He was ready to go be on

1180
00:50:31.320 --> 00:50:35.199
<v Speaker 3>the roster from Milwaukee for the summer Magic Johnson had

1181
00:50:35.280 --> 00:50:37.480
<v Speaker 3>some players that asked for a favorite to be on

1182
00:50:37.519 --> 00:50:41.559
<v Speaker 3>the roster. Those guys said, sorry, I'm gonna take these

1183
00:50:41.599 --> 00:50:43.719
<v Speaker 3>other guys from Magic because he's a friend of mine.

1184
00:50:44.000 --> 00:50:44.280
<v Speaker 2>Whatever.

1185
00:50:44.760 --> 00:50:47.440
<v Speaker 3>And he found out, guess what, it's a business, and

1186
00:50:47.559 --> 00:50:49.840
<v Speaker 3>guess what the NBA is, It's a business.

1187
00:50:49.960 --> 00:50:52.599
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. I mean, if you're not drafted, the draftees obviously

1188
00:50:52.639 --> 00:50:54.800
<v Speaker 4>have an advantage just you know, because they were just picked,

1189
00:50:54.880 --> 00:50:57.639
<v Speaker 4>so they're priority. But when you're coming in as one

1190
00:50:57.679 --> 00:51:00.360
<v Speaker 4>of you know, maybe seven or eight three eight that

1191
00:51:00.440 --> 00:51:02.679
<v Speaker 4>are going to be on that summer league thing, sure,

1192
00:51:02.760 --> 00:51:05.000
<v Speaker 4>you know, you really have to shine. So that's where

1193
00:51:05.039 --> 00:51:08.360
<v Speaker 4>I like, you know, Caleb, I think because he can't,

1194
00:51:08.679 --> 00:51:10.599
<v Speaker 4>you know, I think if he freelances a little bit.

1195
00:51:10.960 --> 00:51:13.159
<v Speaker 2>And just if he can get hot, we know what

1196
00:51:13.239 --> 00:51:15.199
<v Speaker 2>he can do. Yeah. Well, I guarantee you, Dave.

1197
00:51:15.239 --> 00:51:17.039
<v Speaker 3>I'll bet you whatever money you want to bet that

1198
00:51:17.199 --> 00:51:20.760
<v Speaker 3>at the end of tonight's draft, you're gonna hear for

1199
00:51:20.880 --> 00:51:23.039
<v Speaker 3>the ones that for the ones that weren't drafted. The

1200
00:51:23.119 --> 00:51:25.199
<v Speaker 3>good thing and the positive thing you could pick the

1201
00:51:25.440 --> 00:51:27.719
<v Speaker 3>team you're gonna want to go to because it's a

1202
00:51:27.760 --> 00:51:30.960
<v Speaker 3>better fit, you know. So some people might enjoy that

1203
00:51:31.039 --> 00:51:33.079
<v Speaker 3>better than not getting drafted, because then you're obligated to

1204
00:51:33.119 --> 00:51:35.800
<v Speaker 3>go to that team or take a chance on yourself

1205
00:51:35.840 --> 00:51:38.360
<v Speaker 3>and go to a team that you can find a way.

1206
00:51:38.480 --> 00:51:41.079
<v Speaker 4>Yep, that's that's the way it's going to be. He's

1207
00:51:41.119 --> 00:51:42.480
<v Speaker 4>not picked, he's going somewhere.

1208
00:51:42.519 --> 00:51:42.840
<v Speaker 2>He's going.

1209
00:51:43.079 --> 00:51:45.559
<v Speaker 4>Sure, there's no gonna be a matter of minutes after

1210
00:51:45.639 --> 00:51:47.599
<v Speaker 4>the draft ends, like, oh, he just signs a free

1211
00:51:47.639 --> 00:51:48.280
<v Speaker 4>agent and that's too.

1212
00:51:48.320 --> 00:51:51.159
<v Speaker 3>Tommy's point. At the end, he's gonna get a chance. Yeah, okay,

1213
00:51:51.239 --> 00:51:51.920
