- 0:04Speaker 2: Listen live every weekday morning from seven to ten on
- 0:07Speaker 2: Altitude Sports Radio ninety two to five and on the
- 0:10Speaker 2: Altitude Sports Radio App. I don't want to hijack this
- 0:21Speaker 2: program about golf, but having a PGA Tour event vic
- 0:26Speaker 2: and you're talking about the big tour, right, not the
- 0:28Speaker 2: little guys.
- 0:28Speaker 1: And then me be very detailed here. As early as
- 0:31Speaker 1: twenty twenty eight. I'm not saying it's going to be
- 0:34Speaker 1: twenty twenty eight, but that's as early the PG eight
- 0:37Speaker 1: tours making an effort to go to the bigger markets.
- 0:39Speaker 1: They've been to Denver, they love Denver, and it may
- 0:42Speaker 1: take longer than that to set it up these courses. Man,
- 0:44Speaker 1: it takes time to set up a tournament, so it
- 0:48Speaker 1: could be twenty nine or thirty, but it's coming.
- 0:50Speaker 3: It's coming. We are going to get a tour stop
- 0:52Speaker 3: back here again.
- 0:53Speaker 2: I read that they're looking to the big markets like Boston, Denver, Yeah,
- 0:58Speaker 2: New York, Philly, San Francisco's Seattle in d C. To
- 1:01Speaker 2: fill out the spots. After all the Biggins, you know,
- 1:04Speaker 2: the Arnold Palmer and the at and T and Pebble
- 1:06Speaker 2: beach and Genesis and all that kind of thing. So
- 1:09Speaker 2: I'll just say this, Bret Kane, I know you had
- 1:12Speaker 2: a wonderful time at the BMW Championship.
- 1:14Speaker 3: I did.
- 1:16Speaker 2: I had a wonderful time there too, Vick, I know
- 1:18Speaker 2: you had a good time. Everybody knows you had a
- 1:20Speaker 2: good time. I think the whole world knows you.
- 1:24Speaker 3: That's from.
- 1:26Speaker 2: I don't know, you want those good times to continue. Yeah,
- 1:28Speaker 2: we're starting a fraternity. No, So the idea is cool.
- 1:31Speaker 2: There you go listen the end. The BMW Cherry Hills
- 1:34Speaker 2: is great. The International I used to love to go
- 1:38Speaker 2: to because all the big guns are in town, or
- 1:40Speaker 2: at least most of the beg guns. But if we're
- 1:42Speaker 2: looking at this particular schedule, we're part of the big
- 1:46Speaker 2: Gun Tour. That means the big guns are going to
- 1:49Speaker 2: be here. Yep, every single year. It's it's big. I mean,
- 1:53Speaker 2: the market can handle it. We've done it before. The
- 1:55Speaker 2: crowds have been spectacular at these events.
- 1:57Speaker 1: And our and our crowds aren't jerks, correct like the
- 2:00Speaker 1: New York crowds. Absolute classic jerk, classless jerks.
- 2:05Speaker 3: I'll boost some people.
- 2:07Speaker 2: It's just I'm very curious to see how this two
- 2:10Speaker 2: tier tour is going to work so that the second
- 2:14Speaker 2: tier of the tour will they'll have stops at other
- 2:17Speaker 2: places that are not corn Ferry or the main tour.
- 2:21Speaker 2: VIC Is that correct? You gotta help me out with this, man.
- 2:23Speaker 2: I don't understand how it's going to work.
- 2:26Speaker 3: I just what do you mean?
- 2:27Speaker 2: So they're gonna have like their own little tour. They'll
- 2:29Speaker 2: combine some events and then the secondary.
- 2:32Speaker 3: Tours is essentially the corn Ferry stood up. I don't
- 2:35Speaker 3: think that's all that much different. The relegation part is.
- 2:38Speaker 3: But it's it's the corn Fairy, but.
- 2:40Speaker 2: The corn Faery is still going to exist. So I mean,
- 2:43Speaker 2: if I was a pro golfer, I don't think so.
- 2:45Speaker 3: I don't think so. It said that it is.
- 2:47Speaker 2: I don't know. Well, guess we'll see.
- 2:49Speaker 3: There aren't enough golfers around for all these damn tours.
- 2:55Speaker 3: Going back to something else from today, which I think
- 2:58Speaker 3: is I'm not surprising, but noteworthy. I'll call it. When
- 3:05Speaker 3: the NFL just basically slammed the door on Brendan Soresby
- 3:08Speaker 3: and did so in a way that that they could
- 3:13Speaker 3: deny responsibility in They just said, hey, uh, not enough
- 3:19Speaker 3: interest in the supplemental draft this year. I guess we
- 3:21Speaker 3: won't have it. I think the last time they had
- 3:22Speaker 3: when was twenty twenty three. But there is no like that.
- 3:26Speaker 3: You cannot, absolutely cannot convince me that there wouldn't be
- 3:30Speaker 3: a team that would have taken Brendan Soarsby. A team
- 3:32Speaker 3: would have somebody. I mean the Jets. I don't know.
- 3:36Speaker 3: If you guys saw Gino Smith might be in some
- 3:37Speaker 3: legal trouble. They might not have a quarterback in Week one.
- 3:41Speaker 3: Who knows.
- 3:43Speaker 2: I got to see their death chart real quick. I've
- 3:45Speaker 2: got to see it.
- 3:45Speaker 3: Yeah, who's the backup there? Tell me that as we're waiting.
- 3:49Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. That's where quarterbacks go to die. So
- 3:51Speaker 2: it's somebody in their deathbed. Let's see it is kayde Klubnicklick. Oh, yeah,
- 3:57Speaker 2: the Clemson kid, then Brady Cook and then or fourth
- 4:00Speaker 2: quarterback right now is Fuzzy Bailey Phyz Bailey Zap. So
- 4:09Speaker 2: they they.
- 4:10Speaker 3: Deny responsibility in saying that, well, what do you want
- 4:12Speaker 3: from me? Nobody was interested? That is absolutely untrue. But
- 4:16Speaker 3: I guess how do you prove it? But they are
- 4:20Speaker 3: doing the rare thing. It happens very occasionally, but they
- 4:23Speaker 3: do kind of have a handshake agreement with the NCAA
- 4:27Speaker 3: on some things because they are an unaffiliated partner, we'll
- 4:31Speaker 3: call it. That's their minor league system. That's how they
- 4:34Speaker 3: drive all these ratings for the NFL Draft that they
- 4:37Speaker 3: get are solely responsible because college football is huge and
- 4:41Speaker 3: they don't have to pay a dime. What what a sap.
- 4:43Speaker 1: I'm not gonna call it a scam, but what a
- 4:45Speaker 1: wonderful benefit for the National Football perk to have a
- 4:50Speaker 1: developmental league you pay nothing for, yep, and it gives
- 4:53Speaker 1: you all your talent. It provides you a ratings boost
- 4:57Speaker 1: in the offseason with the draft, It gives you wall
- 5:00Speaker 1: the wall coverage all year long based on who's going.
- 5:03Speaker 3: To play in your league. That's a great deal if
- 5:05Speaker 3: you can find one. So the nc DOUBLEA says, well,
- 5:07Speaker 3: he's not playing here because he gambled on our sport
- 5:09Speaker 3: and that's not allowed. He's not allowed in the NFL either, right,
- 5:14Speaker 3: and they're like the NFL was.
- 5:15Speaker 2: Like, yeah, right, that sounds pretty good.
- 5:17Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, And I.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Can see why from there. Aside from propping up, protecting
- 5:23Speaker 2: and helping the NC DOUBLEA, right, you're also sending a
- 5:28Speaker 2: clear message to anybody else who would try this, even
- 5:31Speaker 2: in your own league. Man, we absolutely look If you
- 5:35Speaker 2: didn't realize we looked down upon gambling before in terms
- 5:38Speaker 2: of our players involved in it, coaching staff, anybody, then
- 5:42Speaker 2: you're really you're really going to get a message now
- 5:45Speaker 2: because we're not even letting this guy in the league.
- 5:47Speaker 3: We aren't your safety valve here. That is correct, We aren't.
- 5:51Speaker 3: And the NFL has their own punishment systems for players
- 5:54Speaker 3: who do this. Now if I don't think they've had
- 5:59Speaker 3: any buddy in the NFL that has been guilty of
- 6:02Speaker 3: betting on their own team now that sports scrambling is
- 6:07Speaker 3: more widely available, you know again, like a Wazarika, I
- 6:10Speaker 3: think that suspended for a year because he bet on
- 6:12Speaker 3: the NFL. I don't think it was ever the Broncos though.
- 6:15Speaker 2: But you're not allowed to bet on anything on team grounds.
- 6:19Speaker 2: Who was popped in the team hotel Jamison Williams.
- 6:23Speaker 3: Yeah, he's like a college bet down, but he was
- 6:25Speaker 3: technically at a team hotel on the road, and that's
- 6:28Speaker 3: not allowed. Despite betting on college football is allowed.
- 6:31Speaker 2: But if you if you walk out of the hotel,
- 6:33Speaker 2: you walk down to an Arby's and You're sitting in
- 6:35Speaker 2: the lobby of Arby's having a roast beef and can
- 6:38Speaker 2: you place the bet?
- 6:39Speaker 3: Sounds like it, Yeah, with all those geo fence to play.
- 6:42Speaker 2: So that's just so weird. I mean, that's the look.
- 6:47Speaker 3: And I don't think that Sowersby should be allowed to
- 6:49Speaker 3: play either. But I think that Tyler plumb is brought
- 6:52Speaker 3: up a decent point yesterday about is this a dangerous
- 6:57Speaker 3: precedent to set.
- 6:59Speaker 4: This isn't, said Brendan Soaresby. But no, I actually don't
- 7:02Speaker 4: think I like it. It's a really weird precedent to say,
- 7:06Speaker 4: we're basically suspending somebody that was not a part of
- 7:09Speaker 4: our organization. We're suspending you for a year. We're saying
- 7:12Speaker 4: you're not allowed to play here for a year. Next
- 7:14Speaker 4: year you can come play here, but you weren't a
- 7:16Speaker 4: part of our organization. Now here's where it gets tricky.
- 7:18Speaker 4: He's also not a part of the NFLPA, So the
- 7:21Speaker 4: people that he needs to go fight his fight for
- 7:24Speaker 4: him right now to make him eligible in this draft.
- 7:27Speaker 2: He's not a paid member of that.
- 7:28Speaker 4: He doesn't pay dues into that organization, right, So he's
- 7:33Speaker 4: at a really complex situation here.
- 7:35Speaker 2: That.
- 7:35Speaker 4: I don't like the precedent of the NFL being able
- 7:38Speaker 4: to make decisions like this on people that are not
- 7:41Speaker 4: going to be represented by either side in a proper way.
- 7:45Speaker 3: I think it's a decent point that whenever you get
- 7:49Speaker 3: punished by a league, typically you can lean on the
- 7:52Speaker 3: NFLPA and be like, Hey, what are my rights in
- 7:54Speaker 3: this situation? Can I appeal this? Can I do this
- 7:57Speaker 3: and that? But because somebody says, why isn't each just
- 8:00Speaker 3: a free agent? You have to be available in the
- 8:03Speaker 3: draft process first before you're a free agent. Correct. He
- 8:06Speaker 3: wasn't available in April for the draft. The supplemental draft
- 8:10Speaker 3: was going to be the one he was available in.
- 8:11Speaker 3: If he didn't go, then then he'd be a free agent.
- 8:13Speaker 3: But then he they aren't having one. Correct, So he's
- 8:17Speaker 3: in no man's land. Can't play college football, he can't
- 8:20Speaker 3: play in the NFL. He can go play in Canada,
- 8:23Speaker 3: he can go play in the UFL.
- 8:24Speaker 2: I don't know what. I don't know what the nflpa's
- 8:29Speaker 2: What would they get out of it by fighting for Sowresby.
- 8:32Speaker 3: I don't think they would get anything out of it.
- 8:35Speaker 3: But look, man, if you're a defense lawyer, and you're
- 8:38Speaker 3: representing a guy I was accused of murder. You have to.
- 8:41Speaker 2: But but he's not a part of the NFLPA, none
- 8:44Speaker 2: of these organizations. And I see what Tyler is saying.
- 8:46Speaker 2: I don't necessarily disagree with him.
- 8:48Speaker 3: That that's the point. Though he's not a part of
- 8:49Speaker 3: the NFLPA because he's not allowed to be from the NFL.
- 8:52Speaker 2: But there's no obligation vic from any of these organizations,
- 8:58Speaker 2: the NFLPA, the nf the CFL, the UFL. There is
- 9:04Speaker 2: no other league right arena league what There's no obligation
- 9:08Speaker 2: for them to take him in any for any reason whatsoever.
- 9:12Speaker 3: There's not.
- 9:14Speaker 2: But now you could say, if he's good enough to
- 9:16Speaker 2: play in any of these leagues, they'd be dumb not to,
- 9:20Speaker 2: or you know what, they somebody should give him a shot.
- 9:22Speaker 2: He's repented. I don't know, but I see what. I
- 9:27Speaker 2: see what Tyler is saying. I don't necessarily disagree with
- 9:30Speaker 2: weird precedents being set and so on, But I don't
- 9:32Speaker 2: know what it's in what it's in it for the NFLPA,
- 9:35Speaker 2: and what's in it for the league to have him
- 9:37Speaker 2: in this year. Well, here's what the.
- 9:40Speaker 3: Only part of this I don't understand, because again, the
- 9:44Speaker 3: worst sin you can commit in professional sports is gambling
- 9:48Speaker 3: on the sport that you're participating. That's that's the worst
- 9:52Speaker 3: you can do. And it's judging by all the punishments
- 9:55Speaker 3: they've ever lifetime bans for people who have done it.
- 10:01Speaker 3: Do you allow this guy to repent and then be
- 10:07Speaker 3: allowed in I don't know, or do you just say
- 10:11Speaker 3: you're not allowed at all? I don't know where's the
- 10:14Speaker 3: line on that.
- 10:15Speaker 2: I just I truly do not know. But they're under
- 10:18Speaker 2: no obligation to take him. Said. If the NFLPA is
- 10:22Speaker 2: under zero obligation to defend him, I know, this is like,
- 10:25Speaker 2: you know why they would.
- 10:26Speaker 3: This is the lamest sports radio thing that people do,
- 10:29Speaker 3: but it's the Pete Rose Hall of Fame thing is
- 10:32Speaker 3: directly tied to him gambling on the sport. Correct, And
- 10:35Speaker 3: they said, you're not allowed at all in this in
- 10:38Speaker 3: any capacity, whether it be active or inactive, Hall of
- 10:41Speaker 3: Fame or coaching or whatever. In the case of Soresby,
- 10:47Speaker 3: don't you have to kind of set a line of
- 10:50Speaker 3: you're not allowed to play at all or can you
- 10:53Speaker 3: just do this? You're suspended for a little bit because
- 10:56Speaker 3: that's essentially what they're doing, these leagues.
- 11:02Speaker 1: In bed now with the gambling companies and pushing these
- 11:07Speaker 1: gambling gambling companies to the point of no return and.
- 11:12Speaker 3: Then gambling episodes happening. Man, the lines are being blurred here.
- 11:18Speaker 3: I don't think so. I think they are. I think
- 11:20Speaker 3: it's pretty clear. Don't gamble on your sport.
- 11:22Speaker 1: I get it, I get it. But when you know,
- 11:25Speaker 1: when you have guys that do it before they enter
- 11:27Speaker 1: the sport, the lines blurred.
- 11:29Speaker 3: Well, that's true.
- 11:30Speaker 2: I would never I would never gamble on my sport.
- 11:34Speaker 2: Number one because the big Hockey's probably it looks when
- 11:38Speaker 2: gambled upon, looks at a pain of the ass to
- 11:40Speaker 2: bet on. Number two, Basketball is number one, by the way,
- 11:42Speaker 2: Basketball in the United States number one gambled sport because
- 11:46Speaker 2: it's very easy to do. Yep, win or a loser
- 11:49Speaker 2: by how many football I.
- 11:51Speaker 3: Guess like is is going to score twenty five points.
- 11:54Speaker 2: But I'm not allowed to anyway. I'm not allowed to
- 11:58Speaker 2: on on the NBA. I'm not allowed to on the NHL.
- 12:01Speaker 2: I'm not allowed to on the NFL. YEP, neither am I.
- 12:05Speaker 2: We are not allowed, none of us are because of
- 12:08Speaker 2: our ownership. That is correct. I would never. I mean
- 12:14Speaker 2: I don't gamble anyway, so it doesn't really I mean
- 12:15Speaker 2: I play poker.
- 12:16Speaker 3: Well you can't have on the golf course. That's true too,
- 12:20Speaker 3: But I wouldn't call you gambling on the golf course.
- 12:22Speaker 3: I would call you losing on the golf course. You
- 12:24Speaker 3: hand out money, Yeah, you're like an ATM gambling.
- 12:28Speaker 1: Is that the definition of gamblings? You have a chance
- 12:31Speaker 1: to win, But for you, it's so it's like you're depositing.
- 12:34Speaker 1: So it's so it's like me sitting in a chair
- 12:37Speaker 1: of green side.
- 12:38Speaker 2: Right on green three, here comes big Cane and I'm like,
- 12:45Speaker 2: WHOA just throwing money at you?
- 12:47Speaker 3: Oh, I'm a stripper.
- 12:49Speaker 2: You're a golf strippers essentially that do a little dance
- 12:53Speaker 2: of the flagstick where you get the money. Yeah, there
- 12:57Speaker 2: is comes on three down after a sixty I'm throwing.
- 13:02Speaker 3: Look, I would have done a pole dance.
- 13:07Speaker 2: Here's the thing that to this day it still kills me.
- 13:10Speaker 2: There's no what you brought up, No way made that.
- 13:12Speaker 3: What you brought up Victough is I heard this immediately
- 13:15Speaker 3: when guys were getting popped for or suspended initially in
- 13:18Speaker 3: the league, and that whole like, what did you expect
- 13:22Speaker 3: the secret you started advertising for gambling? I was like,
- 13:24Speaker 3: oh yeah, like all those hammered players out there because
- 13:27Speaker 3: they advertised bud light. I think you know you can't
- 13:31Speaker 3: booze before a game, just like they know you can't
- 13:34Speaker 3: bet on the sport you're participating in. They pretty clear.
- 13:38Speaker 1: I don't a seminar to be like, all right, I understand,
- 13:42Speaker 1: but so when when when leagues are laying the hammer
- 13:46Speaker 1: on players for gambling on one side and in the
- 13:49Speaker 1: middle of that thought, don't forget we have betting.
- 13:52Speaker 4: You know.
- 13:53Speaker 3: It's just it's hard to hear both sides.
- 13:57Speaker 1: You're in the middle of the game, and I don't
- 13:58Speaker 1: think you're talking about an announcers talking about how a
- 14:02Speaker 1: player got suspended for betting. Okay, but and then the
- 14:04Speaker 1: read going to break is, hey, we got a hell
- 14:07Speaker 1: of a parley coming at you today.
- 14:10Speaker 2: Vic.
- 14:11Speaker 3: We just said, am I allowed to gamble? No? So
- 14:15Speaker 3: I just did a fanatic sportsbook rate right, it's the
- 14:17Speaker 3: same thing what I can and can't do. But you
- 14:20Speaker 3: can still advertise for somebody exactly correct to me, It's
- 14:23Speaker 3: not that hard. It's not like, well I wasn't gonna
- 14:27Speaker 3: do it. And then the TV told me I could
- 14:29Speaker 3: do it, so I'm gonna do it now.
- 14:30Speaker 1: I thought with what Roger Goodell did with Soresby and
- 14:34Speaker 1: issuing that statement was.
- 14:37Speaker 3: Not only the right thing to do, the smart thing
- 14:38Speaker 3: to do.
- 14:39Speaker 1: It's about time they've been proactive on stuff like this,
- 14:41Speaker 1: because the worst thing that could have happened is allow
- 14:43Speaker 1: him to go through that supplemental draft and then after
- 14:46Speaker 1: the fact, oh sorry, you can't play.
- 14:48Speaker 3: Just nip it in the butt right away. He can
- 14:51Speaker 3: return to football.
- 14:53Speaker 1: The commissioner said he is allowed to enter the draft
- 14:55Speaker 1: in twenty twenty seven. He's essentially sitting out one year,
- 14:59Speaker 1: which is not a big penalty for a dude who
- 15:01Speaker 1: bet nine thousand times.
- 15:04Speaker 2: I completely agree with that. Keep working out, kid, keep
- 15:09Speaker 2: throwing that pig.
- 15:11Speaker 3: Yeah, funny thing is I mean, didn't did Terry Rosier
- 15:17Speaker 3: get I know he was accused or he was being investigated.
- 15:23Speaker 3: Did he actually get hit with the same thing? Was
- 15:25Speaker 3: he betting on his own his his own sport, his
- 15:28Speaker 3: own team.
- 15:30Speaker 2: I don't. I don't even know where that's at. Does
- 15:32Speaker 2: anybody know where that's at?
- 15:34Speaker 5: I thought he was the player that they investigated for
- 15:36Speaker 5: point shaving and then the NBA said, now upon further review, you're.
- 15:39Speaker 3: Just you just suck. Yeah, that's right. Here's my question.
- 15:44Speaker 2: I think they're going to have a trial.
- 15:48Speaker 3: If Brendan Soorsby was in the NFL when he did this,
- 15:50Speaker 3: is he suspended for a year or kicked out of
- 15:52Speaker 3: the league. He's out of the league. That's the weird
- 15:55Speaker 3: line that I don't I don't know where you draw
- 15:58Speaker 3: it at. Well, he's not in the league right now.
- 16:01Speaker 3: He didn't do it while he was in the league,
- 16:03Speaker 3: but he was punted. But that's I guess the point
- 16:05Speaker 3: that I'm making. If the punishment will be stiffer if
- 16:08Speaker 3: you did it in the league, then why are you
- 16:10Speaker 3: allowed to punish somebody for something that was outside of
- 16:13Speaker 3: their purview.
- 16:14Speaker 2: They're not punishing him.
- 16:18Speaker 3: Not to have a supplemental draft.
- 16:20Speaker 2: They're under no obligation to have a draft.
- 16:22Speaker 3: Okay, but but this is in essence a one year suspension.
- 16:26Speaker 2: You can only punish somebody that's part of your situation.
- 16:28Speaker 3: Okay, answer my question. If the supplemental draft happened, do
- 16:31Speaker 3: you think a team would have drafted Probably they said
- 16:34Speaker 3: nobody was interested.
- 16:35Speaker 2: Good.
- 16:35Speaker 3: Why send a message?
- 16:37Speaker 2: Send a message? Because why you know why. Because they can.
- 16:41Speaker 2: That's why, because they can.
- 16:42Speaker 3: But in essence, is that not a suspension.
- 16:46Speaker 2: I really don't give a rest.
- 16:47Speaker 3: I don't care that you can define it however you want. Nobody.
- 16:50Speaker 3: Nobody's sitting here saying, oh poor guy, I'm not either.
- 16:54Speaker 3: I'm not either. I'm just talking about the way that
- 16:56Speaker 3: the NFL is handling this. And that's why again, the
- 16:59Speaker 3: NFL doing.
- 17:00Speaker 1: The NFL is doing the dirty work that texts Tech
- 17:02Speaker 1: should have done in the first place.
- 17:03Speaker 3: Correct, which is a punishment. So you do agree, Yeah,
- 17:08Speaker 3: but he was a member of Texas Tech. Yeah.
- 17:10Speaker 1: It's also a message to the n c double a,
- 17:13Speaker 1: don't try and forge your trash to us because your
- 17:16Speaker 1: NIL deals are going sour now though we're not playing
- 17:19Speaker 1: that game.
- 17:20Speaker 2: Yeah, well to college players anyway.
- 17:25Speaker 3: But they're they're maybe they're backing up the n CUBA,
- 17:27Speaker 3: They're they're punishing a collegiate infraction. That's all I'm getting at.
- 17:31Speaker 2: That's what they're doing because they because they can be,
- 17:33Speaker 2: because they can because he's not a part of them.
- 17:36Speaker 3: But they can't say that out loud or else they
- 17:38Speaker 3: would have trouble. So they say, uh, nobody wants you
- 17:42Speaker 3: that's it. Three h three five oh four oh nine
- 17:44Speaker 3: two five whole lot to get two stagram more or
- 17:47Speaker 3: less interesting than last night? Will round two of the
- 17:51Speaker 3: drafts be for the Nuggets? What do you think? Are
- 17:53Speaker 3: you going to be more or less intrigued by the
- 17:56Speaker 3: end of the night tonight? Is I, honestly, are you
- 17:59Speaker 3: going to be more or less intrigued by the end
- 18:02Speaker 3: of the night tonight with the Nuggets than you were
- 18:04Speaker 3: last night? Or is it gonna feel like sort of
- 18:06Speaker 3: the same thing. He'll pick, require some future assets, maybe
- 18:12Speaker 3: take a guy in the second round. I don't know.
- 18:14Speaker 3: I don't know what their plan is. I kind of
- 18:17Speaker 3: want something more substantial. What I believe they'll do they have.
- 18:26Speaker 1: Two second round picks tonight, okay, and they also have
- 18:30Speaker 1: a pair in their back pocket from yesterday's move correct, yeah, okay,
- 18:35Speaker 1: two futures okay. What I believe they'll do is this conjecture. Clearly,
- 18:41Speaker 1: I think they'll use one of those second rounders tonight
- 18:44Speaker 1: package the other to shed salary to allow them to
- 18:47Speaker 1: make some moves down the line.
- 18:49Speaker 3: That is my guess.
- 18:51Speaker 1: It's not my hope, it's my guess because I have
- 18:54Speaker 1: no idea what they're really gonna do.
- 18:58Speaker 3: That's my hope. My hope is at how about this,
- 19:02Speaker 3: whether they take a guy to guys tonight, whatever, my
- 19:05Speaker 3: hope is at the end of the night tonight, it'll
- 19:08Speaker 3: have shed some sort of salad.
- 19:10Speaker 1: I think the frustration from Nuggets fans is just not
- 19:12Speaker 1: knowing because most teams, you know, you go through the
- 19:15Speaker 1: draft and you're like, Okay, we've got something. We've got
- 19:17Speaker 1: that shiny object. We've got that represents hope. Right, you
- 19:21Speaker 1: got that player, no matter who it is.
- 19:25Speaker 3: Well, we had Christmas Day here and got nothing. And
- 19:29Speaker 3: you always feel that way in any draft, any team.
- 19:33Speaker 3: I think you hit on something earlier, though, Vick, I'm
- 19:36Speaker 3: not feeling again. I don't even know what this emotion at. Angsty.
- 19:40Speaker 3: Maybe I don't know what it is, disillusioned, confused. Here's why,
- 19:47Speaker 3: it's not that they didn't do anything last night. I
- 19:50Speaker 3: understand that that's not the bothersome part. I don't know
- 19:54Speaker 3: what the direction is. I don't know where to go.
- 19:59Speaker 3: I don't know how you're going to accomplish it. I
- 20:02Speaker 3: don't know if this team is going to run it
- 20:04Speaker 3: back or make major changes or make little tweaks like
- 20:07Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know what they're doing. I
- 20:09Speaker 3: do know this.
- 20:10Speaker 1: They believe that anybody they would have taken it twenty
- 20:13Speaker 1: six last night would not have made a difference in
- 20:16Speaker 1: the outcome here in the next two years.
- 20:18Speaker 3: That's true.
- 20:20Speaker 1: If they believed that there was a player who would
- 20:23Speaker 1: have helped them win a championship now, not in ten
- 20:27Speaker 1: years now, they would have taken that player at twenty
- 20:30Speaker 1: six last night.
- 20:31Speaker 3: Yeah, I totally agree.
- 20:33Speaker 1: That player was not available. And whoever you think it
- 20:36Speaker 1: might have been. I really like that LeBaron Filon who
- 20:38Speaker 1: went to the sixers at what was it, twenty twenty
- 20:41Speaker 1: one around there, whoever that player might be. They believed
- 20:45Speaker 1: that player was off the board gone.
- 20:46Speaker 3: So now let's trade the pick.
- 20:48Speaker 1: The reason the Nuggets are in this situation to recap
- 20:51Speaker 1: for everybody, and I understand everyone's frustrations.
- 20:54Speaker 3: I'd be frustrated too. They made a run at it, man.
- 20:57Speaker 1: They they took all their assets over the last five years.
- 21:04Speaker 3: And they basically said, blank them.
- 21:06Speaker 1: Picks, and they updated and upgraded the roster best they
- 21:11Speaker 1: could to make a run at another championship. And last
- 21:14Speaker 1: year in the offseason, when they refined the roster and
- 21:19Speaker 1: they signed those offseason acquisitions. We looked at that Nuggets
- 21:22Speaker 1: roster and we said.
- 21:23Speaker 2: What ready to go?
- 21:25Speaker 3: Baby, Yeah, that's a championship roster.
- 21:28Speaker 1: Correct, Yes, championship roster that will contend for a championship.
- 21:32Speaker 1: And hell, even despite the injuries, dreadful injuries, they finished
- 21:38Speaker 1: the season with fifty four wins. They finished the season
- 21:41Speaker 1: with a twelve game win streak. They finished the season
- 21:44Speaker 1: in the eyes of many as one of the favorites
- 21:46Speaker 1: to win a damn championship with that roster. No, it's amazing, Vicary,
- 21:50Speaker 1: you don't win it. And now it's time to pay
- 21:53Speaker 1: the piper a little bit.
- 21:54Speaker 2: I'm gonna have Nelly pull something up, something that I
- 21:57Speaker 2: just realized I've never heard in my entire life, and
- 22:00Speaker 2: the odds of it happening here tonight. Nelly, let me
- 22:05Speaker 2: know when you're ready. I've never heard this before.
- 22:08Speaker 3: This better be relevant.
- 22:12Speaker 6: With the forty first pick in the twenty fourteen NBA Draft,
- 22:17Speaker 6: the Denver Nuggets select Nico la Jokich from Somber, Serbia.
- 22:23Speaker 6: He last played for Megavisura in Serbia.
- 22:28Speaker 2: I've never actually heard Mark Tatum make that pick. Ever.
- 22:32Speaker 2: That weird because it was during commercial tru It was
- 22:35Speaker 2: during the Taco Bell commercial o case. So you know
- 22:37Speaker 2: everybody knows that, but I never heard it. So tonight,
- 22:41Speaker 2: could it be the same kind of thing? I mean,
- 22:43Speaker 2: could they just swing for the fences on somebody under
- 22:46Speaker 2: a rock someplace and you know, under a rak Istan
- 22:50Speaker 2: and just.
- 22:50Speaker 3: What, No, that's that's not happening.
- 22:55Speaker 2: You aren't getting yo kitchen again tonight. I remember when
- 22:57Speaker 2: I was, when I was a kid, there was a
- 22:59Speaker 2: park range who hit by lightning, struck by lightning seven times.
- 23:02Speaker 2: I'm like, that's impossible. Well it happened, So maybe lightning
- 23:06Speaker 2: can strike twice in the second round in my lifetime
- 23:09Speaker 2: because it's it's the greatest second round pick in the
- 23:12Speaker 2: history of the game.
- 23:13Speaker 1: In an effort to refine the roster over the last
- 23:18Speaker 1: four years, the Nuggets put themselves in a position where
- 23:22Speaker 1: they have a dearth of draft picks, a literally empty wallet.
- 23:27Speaker 1: Is it is Brett Kane and Mark Moser's wallet on
- 23:30Speaker 1: a daily basis, they have no cash. So this is
- 23:34Speaker 1: an ATM visit yesterday. That's what that was. Trading for
- 23:38Speaker 1: two first rounders. Got to replenish it, got some cash.
- 23:44Speaker 1: Let's see how they use it tonight.
- 23:46Speaker 3: I I'm trying to look back and see where all
- 23:50Speaker 3: of these second rounders went.
- 23:52Speaker 1: Well, three of them went to I'll tell you where
- 23:54Speaker 1: they went. Three of them went to offload Reggie Jackson. Yeah,
- 23:58Speaker 1: which is stunning to me. That that that, to me,
- 24:00Speaker 1: is the most stunning move I've ever seen. That it
- 24:04Speaker 1: took three draft picks to get off his five million
- 24:06Speaker 1: dollar contract. I still don't I still can't figure that
- 24:09Speaker 1: one out. They also gave up a couple to move
- 24:12Speaker 1: up to get.
- 24:15Speaker 3: Who was that?
- 24:17Speaker 2: Was it?
- 24:17Speaker 1: Peyton Watson? I think they gave up one or two
- 24:19Speaker 1: to move up and draft him. They gave up a
- 24:21Speaker 1: couple to get Holmes, so that ad them all up.
- 24:27Speaker 1: That's about six second round draft picks just used in
- 24:30Speaker 1: those transactions.
- 24:32Speaker 2: I think I just made a lot too easy.
- 24:33Speaker 3: And traded the twenty thirty two picked off load Hunter Tyson.
- 24:37Speaker 1: Okay, at seven, that's seven second rounders off their hands,
- 24:42Speaker 1: moving players or moving up to get players.
- 24:46Speaker 3: That's my problem. It's it's not that they did the
- 24:49Speaker 3: FM picks route. It's that their picks were used to
- 24:55Speaker 3: basically send things away as opposed to acquire things.
- 25:00Speaker 2: Correct, But that's what you do when you're trying to
- 25:03Speaker 2: capitalize on the moment. That's what you do. Yeah, it's
- 25:08Speaker 2: what you do. It's what the Florida Panthers have done.
- 25:12Speaker 2: Hell Vegas has done it. You know they're trying to
- 25:14Speaker 2: win down there.
- 25:15Speaker 3: But is it to offload deals?
- 25:18Speaker 2: No, but no. But you're using the picks's assets to
- 25:20Speaker 2: try and improve your right now team.
- 25:23Speaker 3: That that I'm fine with. Again, it's the idea that
- 25:27Speaker 3: you use them. It should not take three second round
- 25:31Speaker 3: picks to get rid of a five million dollar Archie Jackson.
- 25:34Speaker 2: Cons are no answers? Are there no answers right here?
- 25:38Speaker 2: I'm just sick of listen. I know you need to
- 25:41Speaker 2: fill out a roster. I get that, But I mean,
- 25:44Speaker 2: Zeke was a first you seven years. I don't know
- 25:49Speaker 2: who he is. Doron Holmes is a first. I know
- 25:53Speaker 2: he got injured two years ago. I get that, played
- 25:56Speaker 2: sparingly this year, That's.
- 25:57Speaker 3: What I'm saying.
- 25:58Speaker 2: I don't know why?
- 25:59Speaker 3: What is he?
- 25:59Speaker 2: What are these these nothings? These just wasted? These are
- 26:05Speaker 2: space takers? What are we doing?
- 26:07Speaker 3: Can Jalen Pickett play or not?
- 26:08Speaker 2: I don't know how do I not have? I don't
- 26:10Speaker 2: know how do I.
- 26:11Speaker 3: Not know that way he played in January.
- 26:13Speaker 2: Yeah, well yeah.
- 26:16Speaker 3: Like I shouldn't be asking these questions this late into
- 26:20Speaker 3: these guys careers. And that's what's frustrating is you know,
- 26:24Speaker 3: you sign a second round pick, correct me if I'm wrong.
- 26:26Speaker 4: VIC.
- 26:27Speaker 3: Most of the time, those guys are maybe two way
- 26:28Speaker 3: contracts to start, unless you just give them the fully
- 26:32Speaker 3: guaranteed contract and NBA contract from the jump. And they
- 26:35Speaker 3: did that for Hunter Tyson and Jalen Pickett and neither
- 26:38Speaker 3: of them played. Neither.
- 26:40Speaker 1: Well, we talk so much about stuff that makes no sense, Okay,
- 26:43Speaker 1: and that's why the draft remains a crap shooting. There's
- 26:45Speaker 1: everybody said, oh, this draft is so deep, we have
- 26:47Speaker 1: no idea who can play and who can't anybody who
- 26:50Speaker 1: thinks they can.
- 26:50Speaker 3: And you're you're fooling yourself. You're you're lying to yourself.
- 26:53Speaker 1: And I'll give you just another example because it just
- 26:55Speaker 1: made news moments ago. Austin Reeves signed a maximum contract
- 27:01Speaker 1: with the LA Lakers. He signed a four year, one
- 27:05Speaker 1: hundred and eighty five million dollar max contract.
- 27:10Speaker 3: Where was Austin reach drafted? Fellas he was?
- 27:13Speaker 2: If I'm not he was undrafted, that's my undrafted guard
- 27:18Speaker 2: out of undrafted Oklahoma.
- 27:21Speaker 3: That's undrafted.
- 27:23Speaker 1: Nobody wanted him.
- 27:27Speaker 2: Yeah, and for good reason.
- 27:30Speaker 3: What do you mean for good read? You mean I
- 27:32Speaker 3: don't like it? Well? You like him?
- 27:35Speaker 1: Now, don't you to go from undrafted to take well, yeah,
- 27:40Speaker 1: to go from undrafted to a max deal.
- 27:43Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's a pretty good right, Yes, one hundred percent.
- 27:48Speaker 3: It is amazing. I'm okay. Just for argument's sake, if
- 27:58Speaker 3: you took Austin Reeves as an undrafted guy, would he play?
- 28:05Speaker 3: You know what?
- 28:06Speaker 2: If he was at Denver Nugget, would we even know
- 28:07Speaker 2: if he could play?
- 28:09Speaker 1: And therein lies the issues with some of these players
- 28:13Speaker 1: that really make it. Opportunity is everything, and sometimes when
- 28:20Speaker 1: you played for a really good team, you're not going
- 28:23Speaker 1: to get the same opportunities. Right Like, when you're drafted
- 28:28Speaker 1: or you're assembled to a great squad, good luck getting
- 28:31Speaker 1: playing time. But if your first few years are with
- 28:34Speaker 1: a bad team that desperately needs you, watch out.
- 28:38Speaker 3: The Lakers had Lebron when he was there. It's not
- 28:40Speaker 3: like that team they were.
- 28:41Speaker 1: Yes, they weren't bad, but they weren't as they weren't
- 28:45Speaker 1: as talented.
- 28:47Speaker 2: When did he sign with them? Obviously, it's after the bubble, right,
- 28:52Speaker 2: help me? I want to say twenty twenty twenty one,
- 28:56Speaker 2: twenty one, twenty one.
- 29:00Speaker 3: In twenty twenty one, So, I mean the Lakers are
- 29:01Speaker 3: coming off a championship. I mean, they're pretty good this
- 29:06Speaker 3: but this is what I'm getting at, is the only way.
- 29:10Speaker 2: But Michael Malona played often.
- 29:13Speaker 3: I'm not kidding. I'm not kidding, and I don't want
- 29:16Speaker 3: to make too much of it because we've seen guys
- 29:18Speaker 3: like Spencer Jones plays and he's an undrafted guy. I
- 29:21Speaker 3: mean whatever. All I'm saying is this happens too frequently
- 29:27Speaker 3: in which we're talking about canley guy play or not.
- 29:31Speaker 3: Isaiah Hartenstein can play, couldn't here.
- 29:35Speaker 1: I'm not sure if he'll play for OKAC anymore too,
- 29:37Speaker 1: because they just drafted that Mark kid.
- 29:39Speaker 3: But the guy's one hundred million dollar player. VIC like
- 29:42Speaker 3: he play bass. I get it. Yeah, Colin Glessie could play.
- 29:48Speaker 3: He just made forty eight million dollars the other day.
- 29:51Speaker 3: He could play, not here. That's what I'm talking about. Opportunity.
- 29:57Speaker 3: You need to be able to let these guys fight
- 30:00Speaker 3: through some bad stretches of play. You have to you
- 30:03Speaker 3: have to give them consistent minutes. It's the only way
- 30:06Speaker 3: you figure it out. If your whole thing is well,
- 30:08Speaker 3: I can't put them in the game because if they
- 30:10Speaker 3: do that, then we might lose. Well, then you might
- 30:13Speaker 3: lose a game in December. Whoopedie doo. It's about building
- 30:18Speaker 3: that for later in the year when you have two
- 30:20Speaker 3: major injuries in the postseason and you're looking at your
- 30:23Speaker 3: bench saying, well, God, these guys didn't play all year.
- 30:25Speaker 3: I don't know if I can trust him now. Can't
- 30:27Speaker 3: happen anymore? Can't. In fact, you need to play those
- 30:30Speaker 3: guys with the team healthy. They need to play with
- 30:33Speaker 3: some of those starters. You need to see Jalen Pickett
- 30:36Speaker 3: with Jokich. You need to see Doron Holmes playing with
- 30:40Speaker 3: Christian Brown like that stuff has to happen.
- 30:42Speaker 1: In conclusion, I still have no idea what the Nuggets.
- 30:49Speaker 3: So literally, you could tell me the Nuggets will trade
- 30:54Speaker 3: both of their second round picks for future second round picks,
- 30:56Speaker 3: I'd be like, okay. And then you can tell me
- 30:58Speaker 3: they're gonna trade Jamal and Ag I'd be like, Okay.
- 31:01Speaker 3: I guess both of those things could happen. No idea.
- 31:04Speaker 3: The likelihood of the latter is very slim at this point.
- 31:07Speaker 3: Oh yeah again, I think if Jamal gets traded, this
- 31:10Speaker 3: isn't gonna be like a pops out of nowhere trade.
- 31:13Speaker 3: You're gonna hear a thing or two about it before him.
- 31:15Speaker 1: Well, And the reason I say the likelihood is not
- 31:17Speaker 1: theirs because I think if.
- 31:18Speaker 3: You make that big trade, you get something back.
- 31:23Speaker 1: And that's something back is like first round pick or two,
- 31:27Speaker 1: and the first round is already over. Well unless you
- 31:32Speaker 1: have a player, unless you have a player that was
- 31:34Speaker 1: drafted in the first round that you really want.
- 31:35Speaker 3: That depending on who you trust here the Celtics and
- 31:39Speaker 3: Jalen Brown, he's being dangled.
- 31:44Speaker 2: No, they love him now, so no, no, no, no no.
- 31:48Speaker 2: I heard Brad Stephen say it, all right, he's a
- 31:51Speaker 2: big part of us. We value He's a valued guy.
- 31:54Speaker 3: Fact checker. Next time, do you guys see what Sanford did?
- 31:56Speaker 3: By the way, Sandford is feeling himself so much much
- 32:00Speaker 3: after correctly nailing the date of when the Rockies would
- 32:04Speaker 3: win the thirtieth game, he has decided he's going to
- 32:06Speaker 3: do it again. He's now made a prediction for the
- 32:10Speaker 3: sixty third win of the year, the one that breaks
- 32:14Speaker 3: the one hundred loss mark.
- 32:17Speaker 1: All right, let me think when when's he got this
- 32:19Speaker 1: one out there? I would I don't know when he
- 32:21Speaker 1: estimated this. I'm going to go with September thirteenth.
- 32:28Speaker 3: He has September twenty fifth, Friday at the Chicago White Sox.
- 32:34Speaker 3: That is game won sixty, by the way, So they're
- 32:37Speaker 3: pushing it right up to the border. But I gotta
- 32:40Speaker 3: tell you, if Sanford does this, I know this was
- 32:43Speaker 3: a dark, dark, dark time in our nation's history. I
- 32:49Speaker 3: will burn him like a witch. I will do it.
- 32:53Speaker 3: I will tie him to a post and I will
- 32:56Speaker 3: light it on fire.
- 32:57Speaker 2: Can I explin my Dina?
- 32:58Speaker 3: No?
- 32:59Speaker 2: See here the thing? What happened to Icarus? Bro?
- 33:05Speaker 3: He flew too close to the sub way way? Too close?
- 33:10Speaker 2: Old coach has as got an Icarus complex right now? Yep,
- 33:15Speaker 2: he's flying too close to the prediction. Sun, you nailed
- 33:19Speaker 2: it beyond belief with number one. That is not going
- 33:23Speaker 2: to happen again. In fact, I would think the Denver
- 33:26Speaker 2: Nuggets have a better chance in the second round tonight
- 33:30Speaker 2: if snagging another three times MVP, three time MVP in
- 33:38Speaker 2: the second round than he has of getting this one correct.
- 33:42Speaker 3: What would be if I went to a sports book
- 33:44Speaker 3: and I said, what is more likely that our own
- 33:47Speaker 3: Mike Sanford nails the exact win date again, or that
- 33:53Speaker 3: you find another Nikola Jokic in the second round of
- 33:55Speaker 3: the draft. It would be close. It'd be very close. Now,
- 33:59Speaker 3: let me ask you guys a question. Rocks lose last night,
- 34:03Speaker 3: got a chance to win the series today? In the
- 34:05Speaker 3: getaway game, there is five to two to the Red Sox.
- 34:09Speaker 3: They're currently thirty one and forty nine thirty one and
- 34:13Speaker 3: forty nine through eighty games.
- 34:18Speaker 2: So basically he's predicting they're gonna skid even more as
- 34:21Speaker 2: the year goes on.
- 34:24Speaker 3: I mean, basically they're right on pace. No, they're pa
- 34:27Speaker 3: It's basically the game today will make it the midway point,
- 34:31Speaker 3: right any one eighty one? Yeah, it's the midway point,
- 34:34Speaker 3: so thirty one wins would get you to sixty two.
- 34:36Speaker 3: I mean they're right on pace for it. Do you
- 34:41Speaker 3: think as we sit right now, the Rockies were on
- 34:45Speaker 3: pace for it? Looks like sixty two and one hundred.
- 34:49Speaker 3: Will the Rockies lose less than one hundred games this year? Yes,
- 34:54Speaker 3: they're directly on the line.
- 34:56Speaker 2: I think I think they'll lose in the nineties because
- 34:59Speaker 2: I just think that these young guys are getting more experience.
- 35:03Speaker 2: It's gonna help a little bit, a little more, it's
- 35:05Speaker 2: gonna help a little bit as you get the dog
- 35:08Speaker 2: days of August.
- 35:09Speaker 1: But Moje, they may trade off a bunch of really good,
- 35:12Speaker 1: good players.
- 35:13Speaker 3: They could, but aren't.
- 35:16Speaker 2: These guys you can build with. I like I'm looking,
- 35:20Speaker 2: I'm looking up and down the line I'm talking about.
- 35:22Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I'm gonna say, I'll make the proclamation
- 35:32Speaker 3: right now. I'm gonna Ezekiel, this is the year the
- 35:37Speaker 3: hundred lost streak stops. Our boys can get to sixty
- 35:41Speaker 3: three wins. They can do it. They can, I believe it.
- 35:44Speaker 3: But it is amazing. They are literally right on the
- 35:47Speaker 3: pace for one hundred lost season, right on the line
- 35:51Speaker 3: right now. What are you gonna say it?
- 35:55Speaker 1: You know, I'm reading a little bit about this Austin
- 35:57Speaker 1: Reeves thing with the Lakers, and I'm sorry to go
- 35:59Speaker 1: there again, but it's newsworthy for this. So if they
- 36:03Speaker 1: just extended and gave Reeves his max contract, and they're
- 36:08Speaker 1: expected to bring back Lebron, right we don't know for sure,
- 36:11Speaker 1: but we've heard whispers, rumors, reports that Lebron will returned
- 36:17Speaker 1: to the Lakers, and he ain't gonna come cheap, mind you.
- 36:19Speaker 3: He's not gonna do it for the minimum.
- 36:23Speaker 1: I don't think there's any way then they'll have enough
- 36:25Speaker 1: money to throw at Peyton Watson, which is good news
- 36:29Speaker 1: for the Nuggets.
- 36:32Speaker 3: Ummm, Luca, what what? What's Reeve's number again? He's what
- 36:40Speaker 3: he's got? The max? Five years, one hundred and eighty
- 36:42Speaker 3: five million. Okay, so forty easy. Just go to spot Wreck.
- 36:48Speaker 3: It's not up there yet, at least not the one
- 36:49Speaker 3: thirty something per it's four years one hundred and eighty
- 36:53Speaker 3: five million. Sorry, oh oh oh what four years one
- 36:56Speaker 3: hundred and eighty five or time a what that's forty
- 36:58Speaker 3: forty five ish somewhere there. So he'd be at around
- 37:02Speaker 3: forty five. Luke is at fifty three, Lebron would be
- 37:06Speaker 3: around fifty. I mean, yeah, it's a lot. They could
- 37:11Speaker 3: do it. They really don't have people under long term
- 37:13Speaker 3: contracts there. Everybody else is like depending on what they
- 37:18Speaker 3: don't want to do with, like Ruy, or depending on
- 37:20Speaker 3: what they want to do with uh Luke, Cannard and
- 37:23Speaker 3: guys like that. Sure, Ruey's a free agent. What's Ruey making?
- 37:26Speaker 3: He made eighteen point two this year.
- 37:29Speaker 1: Well, then that's the kind of money that they would
- 37:30Speaker 1: be able to offer to Peyton Watson.
- 37:32Speaker 3: Yeah. I you know what, I'm really unconcerned with Peyton
- 37:38Speaker 3: Watson potentially leaving. I don't think it happens. I think
- 37:42Speaker 3: the Nuggets have made a priority off of keeping him.
- 37:45Speaker 3: And look, he's not a free agent. He is restricted. Now, Yes,
- 37:51Speaker 3: that could come with what is one team willing to offer.
- 37:55Speaker 3: I don't think it's going to be crazy, though, I
- 37:57Speaker 3: really don't. Who was just signed for about twenty five
- 37:59Speaker 3: million or not to long ago or twenty two and
- 38:01Speaker 3: a half just got that A couple of n dis
- 38:05Speaker 3: soon move.
- 38:05Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 38:05Speaker 3: I think he's dissumed the range and that's what teams
- 38:09Speaker 3: would be willing to offer, and I think the Nuggets
- 38:10Speaker 3: would be more than welcoming that.
- 38:13Speaker 2: What's interesting in the NBA, if somebody signs away you're
- 38:16Speaker 2: restricted free agents, you get no compensation.
- 38:19Speaker 3: It's just the chance to match, correct, Yeah, the chance
- 38:24Speaker 3: to match.
- 38:24Speaker 2: The In the NHL, depending on the size of the contract,
- 38:28Speaker 2: you can match, yeah, or and you get compensation.
- 38:32Speaker 3: NFL you get compicks. Yeah, Now, depending on how I
- 38:37Speaker 3: don't know how they evaluate that, how they determine whether
- 38:40Speaker 3: a guy's a second round compick, a third round compick
- 38:43Speaker 3: a fourth.
- 38:43Speaker 2: In the NHL, the picks are all about the value
- 38:47Speaker 2: of the contra is the content, how much money they are,
- 38:51Speaker 2: and there's just tears.
- 38:52Speaker 3: I see, I see, well, I just I'm very unconcerned.
- 38:58Speaker 3: I would say with the prospect of him leaving, I
- 39:00Speaker 3: don't everything that I have seen from the Nuggets. They
- 39:03Speaker 3: are acting as if they are a team that is
- 39:06Speaker 3: willing to do maybe not whatever it takes, but pretty
- 39:10Speaker 3: close to whatever it takes to keep them here, you know,
- 39:14Speaker 3: in the same sense, I keep seeing Moses and I think,
- 39:17Speaker 3: I think it's silly. I don't know what you think.
- 39:19Speaker 3: The Avs are getting dragged over this bone byrum trade saying, well,
- 39:23Speaker 3: you traded that guy for middle stat who became this
- 39:25Speaker 3: guy who became Kevin Brindley, and then he gets traded
- 39:28Speaker 3: for a fourth overall pick and a forty fifth overall pick.
- 39:31Speaker 3: I don't think you can look at the trades that way,
- 39:34Speaker 3: depending on what the you have to look at the
- 39:36Speaker 3: situation that the Avs were in, right, that is correct
- 39:38Speaker 3: situation the As were in was we're trying to win
- 39:41Speaker 3: a championship, our best route towards that is getting a
- 39:43Speaker 3: second line center post. Nozam Kadri that we tried correct
- 39:47Speaker 3: and you couldn't find it. It just look middle stat
- 39:50Speaker 3: was bad. So that doesn't help anything. But the intention
- 39:53Speaker 3: of it, I think was correct.
- 39:56Speaker 2: I completely agree. You're trying to win now, I mean
- 39:59Speaker 2: you're they didn't trade bow and Byron because they didn't
- 40:03Speaker 2: think he would be a good player or wasn't a
- 40:04Speaker 2: good player.
- 40:05Speaker 3: If the Avs had the fourth overall pick this year,
- 40:08Speaker 3: would they traded for bow and Byron? Right now?
- 40:10Speaker 2: Uh? No, I don't know.
- 40:13Speaker 3: No, I don't think so, okay, because Byrom's got and
- 40:18Speaker 3: you said it, he wanted to be on a team
- 40:19Speaker 3: where he could play.
- 40:20Speaker 2: You know that he wants he wants to run the
- 40:22Speaker 2: power play man.
- 40:23Speaker 3: Yep, and that wasn't available here if he was still here,
- 40:26Speaker 3: and if he's if.
- 40:27Speaker 2: He's running, he had forty had forty two points this.
- 40:30Speaker 3: Year, Yeah, forty two.
- 40:31Speaker 2: If he's running a team's number one power play unit.
- 40:34Speaker 2: How many more points you want to add on to that?
- 40:36Speaker 2: Maybe you add on fifteen more.
- 40:38Speaker 3: Points, yes, fifteen or two?
- 40:39Speaker 2: Now and all of a sudden he becomes a you know,
- 40:42Speaker 2: upper fifties defenseman point wise, maybe a little bit more
- 40:44Speaker 2: than that if he's getting all that time.
- 40:47Speaker 3: So the top defenseman in NHL points this last season,
- 40:50Speaker 3: Bouchard had ninety five.
- 40:51Speaker 2: There you go.
- 40:52Speaker 3: Wrinsky had eighty one.
- 40:54Speaker 2: These are all these are all number one power play guys.
- 40:57Speaker 3: Car seventy nine, Hudson seventy eight, Hughes.
- 41:00Speaker 2: The same thing. These are all number one power play guys. Yep. Now,
- 41:04Speaker 2: if he thinks he's that, good for him, he ain't that.
- 41:07Speaker 2: He ain't those.
- 41:08Speaker 3: Guys, you don't think so with extra opportunity.
- 41:11Speaker 2: I don't think. I don't think Nokay, No, I don't
- 41:14Speaker 2: think he's a he's the.
- 41:15Speaker 3: One, A huge prospect initially, ain't no doubt about it.
- 41:19Speaker 2: I don't. I don't. I think I'm gonna cap him.
- 41:22Speaker 2: I'd cap him somewhere sixty points.
- 41:24Speaker 3: Okay, which is still which is still a hell of
- 41:27Speaker 3: a player.
- 41:27Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, but you're talking about you're talking about
- 41:30Speaker 2: really special.
