- 1:22Speaker 9: Think sometimes like not that we need a camera in here,
- 1:26Speaker 9: but like so people understand, like when it takes a
- 1:31Speaker 9: second for me.
- 1:32Speaker 10: To even come up because I'm just jamming in the song,
- 1:35Speaker 10: like oh yeah, I'm not in my car, I'm on
- 1:39Speaker 10: the radio. But DJ Hicksworf, who's got me bobbing my
- 1:43Speaker 10: head back and forth.
- 1:45Speaker 5: So the last time we were here, it was a Thursday.
- 1:48Speaker 5: You had to check out to go do your civic duty.
- 1:51Speaker 5: As on P and Z and I had Keith Sweat
- 1:55Speaker 5: play and Otter was here, had no clue who Sweat was.
- 2:03Speaker 5: She was born just a little before Twisted came out,
- 2:09Speaker 5: and so totally missed the key sweat.
- 2:13Speaker 9: The kids these days you just have no idea what
- 2:17Speaker 9: you were missing.
- 2:18Speaker 5: Not to hijack the show. But this morning on Cannie
- 2:22Speaker 5: ninety five, I guess they put out a poll or
- 2:26Speaker 5: The question was female led eighties song best, and you
- 2:37Speaker 5: know typical names are getting thrown out there, uh, Stevie Nicks,
- 2:42Speaker 5: Pat Benatar, Pat thankfully, Pat Benatar came up a number
- 2:45Speaker 5: of times, Madonna, Whitney, Houston, I want to dance with somebody,
- 2:49Speaker 5: because you were supposed to name individual songs and Bengals
- 2:55Speaker 5: walk like an Egyptian. I originally, when I first heard
- 2:59Speaker 5: the question, I thought was in the context of a
- 3:01Speaker 5: female led group, so I was staying away from individual
- 3:04Speaker 5: artists until they started going down that route. But I
- 3:09Speaker 5: was actually kind of proud of the listening audience for
- 3:12Speaker 5: naming a good number of excellent choices.
- 3:16Speaker 9: Well, when you're listening to on again CHIP Our Sports
- 3:18Speaker 9: Talk Sports Radio eleven fifty AM, The Zone, ninety three
- 3:20Speaker 9: seven FM, Jason Cornelius, Jared Hicks in for Chip today
- 3:24Speaker 9: and the times that I have been and then this
- 3:28Speaker 9: was on Morning Candy the times that I've been fortunate
- 3:33Speaker 9: to be able to help guest host over there, Like
- 3:35Speaker 9: the mornings is very millennialish as people are driving to work.
- 3:43Speaker 9: Now when you get into the afternoons and the later
- 3:45Speaker 9: like that's when it's it trends a little bit younger.
- 3:48Speaker 9: But like there are a lot of millennials that are
- 3:50Speaker 9: listening because listening to Candy on their way into work.
- 3:55Speaker 9: Until I can see where where that is, where that
- 3:58Speaker 9: is coming from. When it when it comes to knowing
- 4:02Speaker 9: the eighties and what those groups are again DJ Hicks Corp.
- 4:07Speaker 9: We'll we'll throw in some some eighties pop music every now.
- 4:11Speaker 5: I actually thought about doing it today. I was I
- 4:13Speaker 5: was kind of because of that topic. I started looking
- 4:15Speaker 5: through it and it was like, but but we are
- 4:18Speaker 5: both going to be checking out, uh after the five
- 4:21Speaker 5: forty during the five forty commercial break, So I was like,
- 4:25Speaker 5: have a very limited window today so for that Friday,
- 4:28Speaker 5: we'll see what happens. One more thing before we get
- 4:31Speaker 5: to the topic, lyab on. So, today's an anniversary. Okay,
- 4:36Speaker 5: it is the anniversary of the Coldplay couple that was
- 4:40Speaker 5: a year ago, a year ago today, Holy cow, which
- 4:44Speaker 5: means we are just probably tomorrow. I don't I'd have
- 4:48Speaker 5: to go back and look through my pictures of my
- 4:51Speaker 5: purposely horrifically done photoshop. Oh we were on the air.
- 4:59Speaker 5: Time is circular, folks.
- 5:00Speaker 1: Oh god, that was? So that has already been.
- 5:05Speaker 5: It's already been a year, yeah, higher year since, and
- 5:10Speaker 5: Chris Martin still hasn't apologized to that woman.
- 5:15Speaker 1: An entire years since that. Oh god that was and
- 5:17Speaker 1: that picture of.
- 5:18Speaker 5: Oh again, it was supposed for everyone who chimed in,
- 5:23Speaker 5: it was like, it's supposed to look bad like it was.
- 5:27Speaker 11: It was.
- 5:28Speaker 5: It's not. It's not supposed to be expertly done.
- 5:31Speaker 9: And and also, ladies, like if for the many many
- 5:34Speaker 9: years that we've done, if you don't recognize that we
- 5:39Speaker 9: thankfully don't take ourselves very seriously when we come up
- 5:42Speaker 9: here to talk sports with you. Look at some of
- 5:45Speaker 9: Jared's posts when he's announcing that we're coming on the
- 5:47Speaker 9: show like that should give you any clue, that should
- 5:50Speaker 9: give you quite a bit of them.
- 5:52Speaker 5: I am always looking for, like what is what is
- 5:55Speaker 5: the topic du jour right now that I can utilize.
- 5:58Speaker 1: Give you yes, to give you an to what the
- 6:01Speaker 1: planning sessions are.
- 6:02Speaker 5: So the one I did yesterday was the full video
- 6:06Speaker 5: of Thomas Tuckle on the sideline doing hand signals. The
- 6:10Speaker 5: whole reason that came up was because someone took a
- 6:13Speaker 5: screenshot of him holding up the number three, and since
- 6:17Speaker 5: he's German, he does the thumb index and middle finger,
- 6:20Speaker 5: which for anyone who's seen the movie Loris Bastards you
- 6:25Speaker 5: learned that is the German signal for three. I did
- 6:29Speaker 5: not want to use the screenshot that has the picture
- 6:33Speaker 5: of the Nazi soldier opposite of Fastbender and Thomas Tukel,
- 6:41Speaker 5: because you know, just don't want to get aggregated that way.
- 6:46Speaker 5: I think I've made my political affiliation pretty clear, and yeah,
- 6:50Speaker 5: I don't want to be aligned with the Nazis, so
- 6:53Speaker 5: that's why, you know, just want to make sure it's
- 7:00Speaker 5: sad you have to say that nowadays, but you kind
- 7:02Speaker 5: of do way to step out on I know. That's
- 7:07Speaker 5: my hot take for the day. Nazi's bad anyway, all right,
- 7:12Speaker 5: So but yeah, all right, let's talk Lebron because we
- 7:15Speaker 5: kin'd we started we kind of put our dipped our
- 7:18Speaker 5: toe in these waters late yesterday and I was like, no,
- 7:22Speaker 5: we can say we're gonna need something for today. Save
- 7:26Speaker 5: it for today again, slow news, slow news day for sport.
- 7:30Speaker 1: Slow news. The rain is starting to come back.
- 7:32Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't. I mean you you've got P and
- 7:35Speaker 5: Z again tonight. I gotta get to a rotary thing.
- 7:38Speaker 5: So hopefully whatever this is, I'm not cursing the rain.
- 7:42Speaker 5: Just I needed to pause for a little bit. We
- 7:47Speaker 5: talked about it kind of early in the show that
- 7:49Speaker 5: this this I'm gonna call it decision. It's not the decision,
- 7:56Speaker 5: but this decision for Lebron. You really have to I
- 8:00Speaker 5: think we have to put it in the context of
- 8:01Speaker 5: he's probably looking at this is the fun This is
- 8:04Speaker 5: the final stop, whether it's one year or if it's
- 8:07Speaker 5: if it's two years, and so what what does he
- 8:13Speaker 5: want to go out on? Is it? Is it going
- 8:17Speaker 5: to be the homecoming story in Cleveland? Is it? Is
- 8:21Speaker 5: it compete? Actually be a part of a team that
- 8:24Speaker 5: can compete for championships. So now You're probably not looking
- 8:29Speaker 5: so much at Cleveland as you are looking at maybe
- 8:32Speaker 5: a Miami, a Philadelphia, Denver, Golden State. Where where are
- 8:39Speaker 5: you sitting in.
- 8:40Speaker 9: This so And I'm glad you you've kind of broke
- 8:43Speaker 9: it down into those two areas because I'm like, what
- 8:49Speaker 9: does Lebron think he is going to bring to a
- 8:53Speaker 9: team and and what and what is the point of
- 8:57Speaker 9: him waiting for this? Because it's me right now a
- 9:01Speaker 9: lot of Aaron Rodgers and how Aaron Rodgers has been
- 9:05Speaker 9: these last couple of years. Yeah, Aaron Rodgers can still
- 9:10Speaker 9: play quarterback and still play quarterback at a pretty high level.
- 9:14Speaker 9: He's not taking the Steelers and he wasn't taking the
- 9:17Speaker 9: Jets to a championship. Lebron James can still play basketball
- 9:22Speaker 9: at a very high level.
- 9:24Speaker 5: And still probably average you twenty points a game.
- 9:26Speaker 9: Oh I probably twenty easily twenty points a game, easily,
- 9:30Speaker 9: seven rebounds, easily, probably six or seven assists. He can
- 9:34Speaker 9: absolutely do that. Is Lebron James going to be the
- 9:41Speaker 9: piece on a team to make them the championship? Because
- 9:47Speaker 9: I think for me, if he goes to Miami, they're
- 9:50Speaker 9: not winning a championship. Him been out out of Bayo
- 9:54Speaker 9: and Gianni side Decompo are not going to win a
- 9:57Speaker 9: championship because there won't be enough around them. If he
- 10:01Speaker 9: goes to Golden State, I will watch every Golden State
- 10:04Speaker 9: game that there is with him and Steph, and you're like,
- 10:07Speaker 9: that'll be great basketball to watch. They're not beating Oklahoma,
- 10:11Speaker 9: and they're not being Oklahoma City, and they're not beating
- 10:13Speaker 9: San Antonio in the West. Just it's not gonna happen.
- 10:17Speaker 9: I didn't know. I hadn't heard that Denver may be
- 10:19Speaker 9: an option. If Denver is an option, that is a
- 10:23Speaker 9: possibility that.
- 10:25Speaker 1: That they may be putting him with Joker.
- 10:28Speaker 9: I think and and I think there could be enough
- 10:31Speaker 9: there for them to contend better than anywhere else Cleveland.
- 10:36Speaker 9: Maybe I don't any team, any team with James Harden
- 10:40Speaker 9: on it, I almost automatically eliminate from being in any
- 10:44Speaker 9: kind of playoff can I.
- 10:47Speaker 5: Want to I'll circle back to that after he finish.
- 10:49Speaker 9: And then I to be to be perfectly honest with
- 10:52Speaker 9: Jalen Brown there if they can figure out how to
- 10:56Speaker 9: get Joel and Bid to play more.
- 10:58Speaker 1: Than fifty games. Tyres MAXI is a beast.
- 11:04Speaker 9: That is the only place that I see if you
- 11:09Speaker 9: add Lebron James, that is a team that can win
- 11:12Speaker 9: the championship and it still has its flaws.
- 11:16Speaker 5: Okay, so when it comes to Cleveland, I almost feel
- 11:23Speaker 5: like if if he is making the decision to go
- 11:26Speaker 5: to Cleveland, then you're gonna see them. I think you
- 11:30Speaker 5: see them get rid of James Harden. I don't see
- 11:34Speaker 5: those two coexisting if this is Lebron's final ride, whether
- 11:39Speaker 5: it's one or two years, because I don't think Lebron
- 11:44Speaker 5: wants to put up with that Nora. Okay, Philly is
- 11:49Speaker 5: interesting because, like you say, he can he can go
- 11:55Speaker 5: on a team that all of a sudden looks really
- 11:59Speaker 5: that that has been competitive, but looks extremely competitive in
- 12:05Speaker 5: an East that has been completely shaken up from what
- 12:10Speaker 5: it was this past year. I mean, even the Knicks
- 12:13Speaker 5: are going to be different this coming year versus what
- 12:17Speaker 5: they're coming off and they're retaining most of that roster.
- 12:24Speaker 5: Your points on Miami are I mean dead on, because yeah,
- 12:29Speaker 5: as it currently stands, there is not enough on that roster,
- 12:36Speaker 5: and honestly, I believe if they were to try to
- 12:40Speaker 5: bring in Lebron, that probably means that Bobby Portis is
- 12:42Speaker 5: going to have to be is going to have to go.
- 12:45Speaker 5: Andrew Wiggins will probably be part. I mean we I
- 12:49Speaker 5: think we talked about this last time, where he could
- 12:51Speaker 5: be part of a sign and trade and that way
- 12:53Speaker 5: you could get Lebron more money. But that then you're
- 12:55Speaker 5: losing Andrew Wiggins in the process. Golden State, as you
- 13:02Speaker 5: pointed out, it'll be fun to watch, but you know
- 13:09Speaker 5: you're not gonna get past the big two in the West,
- 13:11Speaker 5: and and potentially you may not even get past a
- 13:14Speaker 5: Denver because that is that's gonna be an age and
- 13:18Speaker 5: aging team. And then the Denver thing is very interesting
- 13:26Speaker 5: except for the fact you're still in the West and
- 13:28Speaker 5: you still have to get past San Antonio and Golden
- 13:32Speaker 5: San Antonio and Oklahoma City. I have to ask, I
- 13:38Speaker 5: don't I mean I don't. I don't see it happening.
- 13:41Speaker 5: I don't know how it happens. But again, this is
- 13:44Speaker 5: Lebron James. He is an economy to himself. Yes, doesn't
- 13:50Speaker 5: the narrative at the end almost dictate he plays in
- 13:57Speaker 5: New York. See, I mean, I know, I know he
- 14:01Speaker 5: doesn't want I know he doesn't want to be a
- 14:03Speaker 5: ring chaser. But I mean, if you're if you're trying
- 14:06Speaker 5: to get on a team that's going to compete for
- 14:08Speaker 5: a championship. I mean, you're kind of ring chasing in
- 14:12Speaker 5: that regard. I'm not I'm not dismissing the challenge.
- 14:16Speaker 1: But if and he has already said that it's not
- 14:20Speaker 1: about the money.
- 14:20Speaker 5: Yeah, then what well, let's let's be clear Rich Paul
- 14:25Speaker 5: has said that Lebron has said it's not about the money.
- 14:30Speaker 5: We'll find out. I mean, we'll find out just how
- 14:34Speaker 5: far he's willing to go, if he's willing to take
- 14:37Speaker 5: league minimum to to truly get on a squad. I
- 14:41Speaker 5: just you know, again, when you're when you're trying to
- 14:44Speaker 5: write that final chapter, Cleveland makes sense, Miami makes sense.
- 14:51Speaker 5: You can make a case for Golden Steak, But I
- 14:55Speaker 5: don't know if if that's ultimately where he wants to
- 14:58Speaker 5: go out. Again, we said Philadelphia is a team that
- 15:02Speaker 5: can compete HM, but does he want to end it
- 15:05Speaker 5: in Philadelphia.
- 15:07Speaker 9: I don't know if that's the place that he wants
- 15:08Speaker 9: to end it. I think if you want to if
- 15:09Speaker 9: he wants to just go have fun playing basketball, he's
- 15:12Speaker 9: going to Golden State. Like, if he just wants to
- 15:14Speaker 9: end his career, him and stuff. They've been kind of
- 15:18Speaker 9: the later face of the NBA, through the through the
- 15:21Speaker 9: through the teens and the twenty teams, and so that's
- 15:24Speaker 9: a good place. Here's where I the the end all
- 15:28Speaker 9: question of where this was coming out for me, and
- 15:31Speaker 9: kind of going back to, as you said, some of
- 15:33Speaker 9: the Rich Paul of it, some of the the Aaron
- 15:36Speaker 9: Rodgers of it, What is the hold up? Like what
- 15:40Speaker 9: all of the other big for everybody else.
- 15:43Speaker 5: So this goes back to the conversation we were having
- 15:47Speaker 5: the last time we were here on that Thursday with
- 15:52Speaker 5: Jalen Brown, like, why was it so important for Boston
- 15:56Speaker 5: to pull the trigger on trading Jalen Brown that quickly?
- 16:01Speaker 1: They wanted him out of the BA.
- 16:02Speaker 5: I know, they wanted him out of the building.
- 16:03Speaker 9: I think that's coming out more and more like right,
- 16:06Speaker 9: they just they just wanted him out of the bill.
- 16:08Speaker 5: But to get what little they got in return for that,
- 16:13Speaker 5: I just feel like was so short sighted in Lebron's case.
- 16:18Speaker 5: I mean, ultimately he can wait till September if he
- 16:21Speaker 5: wants to. Uh, probably not advisable, but I mean it's
- 16:27Speaker 5: it's completely on his timetable. What I think is kind
- 16:31Speaker 5: of an interesting point in all this with Rich Paul
- 16:34Speaker 5: being involved is the Draymond Green part of it. Because
- 16:38Speaker 5: Draymond Green opted out and everyone took that as, oh,
- 16:41Speaker 5: he's trying to free up space to put Lebron here.
- 16:45Speaker 5: One of the caveats might be maybe this is Draymond
- 16:49Speaker 5: hitching his wagon to Lebron, and wherever Lebron goes, that's
- 16:52Speaker 5: where Draymond wants to go. Because you got to remember,
- 16:56Speaker 5: in all of these moves that Lebron has made, it's
- 16:59Speaker 5: all it's not just about Lebron coming, it's Lebron and.
- 17:04Speaker 1: Someone whichever clutch sports. Yeah, Rich Paul a client.
- 17:09Speaker 5: So there is the possibility that while Golden State is
- 17:13Speaker 5: in the mix, that actually the play here is it's
- 17:16Speaker 5: a Lebron Draymon package looking to land somewhere and then
- 17:23Speaker 5: that And that's kind of why I brought up Cleveland
- 17:24Speaker 5: because to me, I think like, if if Cleveland is
- 17:28Speaker 5: the ultimate decision, then they're probably gonna they're gonna clean
- 17:32Speaker 5: house on that and try and build out the team
- 17:36Speaker 5: that Lebron wants to that Lebron believes can be competitive
- 17:40Speaker 5: for this this final run.
- 17:42Speaker 9: They keep Mitchell because they just gave him a boatload
- 17:45Speaker 9: of money. They Yeah, if Lebron comes in and Draymond
- 17:51Speaker 9: comes in, like Harden's gone, because that's that's too many,
- 17:56Speaker 9: and that that's too many ball dominant and not necessarily
- 17:59Speaker 9: bald domin when it scores, but just ball dominant people.
- 18:03Speaker 5: Well and in general, and I hate to say this,
- 18:05Speaker 5: for this point in Lebron's career, that's gonna be two
- 18:08Speaker 5: guys on the court who aren't playing defense, right, So.
- 18:11Speaker 9: No, there's three guys on the court because well, with Draymond, Yeah,
- 18:15Speaker 9: but Draymond, Harden.
- 18:16Speaker 1: And Lebron are not going.
- 18:18Speaker 9: They're not. And Draymond used to like they all you
- 18:20Speaker 9: will except for Harden. Yeah, but Draymond and Lebron at
- 18:23Speaker 9: least used to be very good, if not excellent defenders.
- 18:27Speaker 1: That's not the case anymore.
- 18:29Speaker 9: And so yeah, that's three guys on your on the
- 18:31Speaker 9: floor that are going to be defensive liabilities at different
- 18:35Speaker 9: points of the game.
- 18:37Speaker 5: So that's that's why I say this may play out longer.
- 18:41Speaker 5: I mean, a lot of the conjecture was that we
- 18:44Speaker 5: may hear something as early as tomorrow, just because again,
- 18:47Speaker 5: dead period, you're not going Lebron wants to be or
- 18:52Speaker 5: Lebron wants to be the topic, or Rich Paul wants
- 18:55Speaker 5: Lebron to be the topic going into the weekend, and
- 18:58Speaker 5: a in a in the in the on the in
- 19:01Speaker 5: the Sporting News. So I don't think it happens tomorrow.
- 19:06Speaker 5: I think that was just kind of rosy projections. But
- 19:09Speaker 5: it wouldn't shock me if we get something over the
- 19:12Speaker 5: next week or two, because, like you say, what, what
- 19:17Speaker 5: is the hold up? There's only a handful of options.
- 19:20Speaker 5: There's there's only a handful of realistic options. It's just
- 19:24Speaker 5: a matter of making it work you.
- 19:26Speaker 9: And that's and and that's where I'm getting a little
- 19:29Speaker 9: frustrated with the Rich Paul of it, with now the
- 19:33Speaker 9: Lebron of it. Of like the the you have, you
- 19:38Speaker 9: have put the machinations in place, the chest, all the
- 19:41Speaker 9: pieces are in place, Like it's just what when you
- 19:44Speaker 9: were ready to trigger it? And now just to be
- 19:46Speaker 9: sitting here waiting for you to pull the trigger on
- 19:49Speaker 9: which one of these pieces you want to move?
- 19:51Speaker 5: I guess is one thing that might be holding this
- 19:55Speaker 5: up Toronto putting the pause on Kawhi Leonard Trade. I'm
- 20:03Speaker 5: not I'm not saying he will play a factor, but
- 20:06Speaker 5: when you talk about the ripple effect like moving player here,
- 20:12Speaker 5: and that that causes you to have to move, so
- 20:14Speaker 5: you know, so many players to be involved in multiple
- 20:16Speaker 5: teams to make them all the math work out. Is
- 20:19Speaker 5: that part of this complex algorithm as well, that we
- 20:25Speaker 5: Lebron doesn't want to make a decision and let until
- 20:29Speaker 5: that part of the the puzzle has has been figured out.
- 20:33Speaker 9: I would think that he would want to figure out
- 20:38Speaker 9: where he was going before Kawhi becomes available. If Kawhi
- 20:42Speaker 9: is going to become available, I think I still think
- 20:44Speaker 9: Kaui goes to Toronto. I think the the package that
- 20:50Speaker 9: the Clippers, the the hall that they thought that they
- 20:53Speaker 9: were getting back, is what's going to change. I still
- 20:56Speaker 9: think Kawhi goes to ends up in Toronto. I just
- 20:59Speaker 9: think they renegotiate how many picks that that the Clippers
- 21:04Speaker 9: get back in return.
- 21:06Speaker 1: But in that.
- 21:09Speaker 9: And I'm not nowhere near, like I know, Lebron James
- 21:14Speaker 9: doesn't compare himself to Kawhi Leonard, but other teams do.
- 21:18Speaker 9: And I think that's why, Like there's only been certain
- 21:22Speaker 9: because if he's playing for the Vetri minimum at fifteen,
- 21:25Speaker 9: there's a bunch of teams that could have gone after him.
- 21:27Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 21:27Speaker 5: Oh well, I mean it's reasonable to expect every team
- 21:30Speaker 5: was probably leaving him.
- 21:31Speaker 1: Voice at least at least reaching out. Yeah, and if
- 21:35Speaker 1: Kawhi becomes.
- 21:38Speaker 9: As of right now today, if you have Kawhi Leonard
- 21:42Speaker 9: and you have Lebron James, Kawhi is taking the lead
- 21:46Speaker 9: in that now, and who a team is going to
- 21:49Speaker 9: want because you want you get more years out of
- 21:51Speaker 9: him too. That's just like, Kawhi is the better player
- 21:53Speaker 9: right now. And so that's what I'm like. If Lebron
- 21:56Speaker 9: is like, oh, let me see where everything else is
- 21:58Speaker 9: going to go, that may if that if that quiet
- 22:02Speaker 9: deal completely blows up with Toronto, like that's going to
- 22:06Speaker 9: be because quite can't go back to the Clippers now, No,
- 22:09Speaker 9: like that's done. And so that puts it more of
- 22:12Speaker 9: for more teams to try to do that. And then
- 22:15Speaker 9: instead of Lebron dictating what the storyline is now, he's
- 22:18Speaker 9: being forced to wait.
- 22:21Speaker 5: I just again, I know so much of this is
- 22:24Speaker 5: predicated on making the math work with all the various contracts,
- 22:27Speaker 5: and and you know, again, Lebron may be saying it's
- 22:32Speaker 5: not about the money, but there's going to be a
- 22:35Speaker 5: part of him is like, I at least am going
- 22:38Speaker 5: to be compensated in a reasonable amount if I'm if
- 22:42Speaker 5: we're we can compete for a championship. And I think
- 22:46Speaker 5: at this point in his career, he also knows he's
- 22:48Speaker 5: gonna have to find a landing spot with the necessary
- 22:51Speaker 5: pieces around that can make that happen, because, as he
- 22:54Speaker 5: learned the hard way in.
- 22:55Speaker 1: La, he can't carry a team.
- 22:57Speaker 5: He can't carry Yeah, he can't carry a team anymore.
- 23:00Speaker 5: We're talking about the Clippers. He lives in La sons
- 23:07Speaker 5: playing in the you know, playing in the city, is
- 23:12Speaker 5: that a possibility?
- 23:14Speaker 9: I mean, I would think And this is where people
- 23:18Speaker 9: were thinking that Golden State was was the bigger opportunity
- 23:22Speaker 9: when all of this first started, being when the room
- 23:25Speaker 9: first started pulling for that is, if he's gonna go,
- 23:29Speaker 9: he'll go to Golden State before he goes to the Clippers.
- 23:32Speaker 9: Like there, they said that they would work around whatever
- 23:35Speaker 9: schedule he wanted if he like, he's still in California,
- 23:38Speaker 9: nobody has to sell the house or to move or
- 23:41Speaker 9: do anything that he would have to do if he
- 23:43Speaker 9: goes anywhere else. So I I don't talk to Rich
- 23:47Speaker 9: Paul or Lebron James. But in my opinion on that,
- 23:51Speaker 9: I would think if it came down to the Clippers
- 23:53Speaker 9: and and any like, if the Clippers are his only choice,
- 23:57Speaker 9: he's going to Golden State.
- 24:00Speaker 1: Why like if people.
- 24:03Speaker 5: I guess, I guess that I bring up the Clippers,
- 24:05Speaker 5: I bring up the Clippers because it's like, that's why
- 24:07Speaker 5: I'm not saying the Clippers are the same as Philadelphia.
- 24:12Speaker 5: Philadelphia does have a rich basketball history, but when you
- 24:15Speaker 5: just look and you know, at least the last thirty years, Philadelphia,
- 24:21Speaker 5: they they're kind of the Yeah, they're there, but they're
- 24:24Speaker 5: definitely not one of the teams that sits on sits
- 24:27Speaker 5: on the perch like a Golden State or or you know,
- 24:30Speaker 5: Oka See or San Antonio. You know, I gotta say,
- 24:35Speaker 5: I know it. I know it's not an attractive location
- 24:41Speaker 5: as far as the glitz and the glamour it. You know,
- 24:44Speaker 5: why not just go to San Antonio. They've got the
- 24:48Speaker 5: cap space. That would I mean, I know that's I
- 24:52Speaker 5: know that's ultimate ring chasing with Wimby there, But you know.
- 24:57Speaker 1: That would be like I was about to say, if.
- 25:01Speaker 5: Pop was there, do you think he I think.
- 25:03Speaker 9: If Pop was there, I would I think that would
- 25:05Speaker 9: be a legitimate option if Pop were still there, because
- 25:08Speaker 9: I don't think Lebron is going to want to go
- 25:11Speaker 9: and play for a coach that he knows more than Yeah,
- 25:14Speaker 9: and that team needs to grow together with their coach. Yeah,
- 25:19Speaker 9: Lebron going back, that Pop would have to come, and
- 25:23Speaker 9: he can't cut up for health reason. But yeah, yeah,
- 25:25Speaker 9: Lebron would run all over Mark like he'd destroy him.
- 25:30Speaker 9: And I was just thinking how much I would hate
- 25:33Speaker 9: the Spurs even more if Lebron goes there. But the
- 25:35Speaker 9: other part I was thinking, like, can you imagine how
- 25:38Speaker 9: much Lakers fans would hate Lebron if he went to
- 25:44Speaker 9: the clip like he gets hating that, Like they would
- 25:47Speaker 9: destroy him if he just went to I was gonna say,
- 25:51Speaker 9: across the hallway to the Staples Center, but they don't
- 25:52Speaker 9: play in Staples anymore. Yeah, that would be unreal.
- 25:56Speaker 5: Again, That's what makes the semantics of of all this intriguing,
- 26:01Speaker 5: and that's why it's a huge topic of conversation and
- 26:04Speaker 5: it has been in and probably will be until he
- 26:06Speaker 5: does make his decision. Is you just start looking at
- 26:10Speaker 5: the the Obviously, virtually all the options are on the
- 26:14Speaker 5: table except for a handful of teams that there's just
- 26:16Speaker 5: no way they can make it work. But for Lebron,
- 26:21Speaker 5: he's not. He's not going to make a move that
- 26:25Speaker 5: he doesn't think is going to be beneficial to him,
- 26:28Speaker 5: And so that really starts to whittle. That's why it's
- 26:30Speaker 5: like Minnesota is realistic, is not a realistic option? Trying
- 26:35Speaker 5: to think one of the other teams that definitely has
- 26:38Speaker 5: the cap space. But you get the point, You get
- 26:40Speaker 5: the point teams like that, Yeah, they've got the cap space,
- 26:44Speaker 5: they got the room, they even have a few stars.
- 26:46Speaker 5: But he's not. He's not going to waste his time
- 26:48Speaker 5: going there.
- 26:49Speaker 9: No, and that all this boils down to, I'm just
- 26:52Speaker 9: I'm I'm starting to get annoyed with the oh what
- 26:56Speaker 9: just you know, there's no reason for you to keep
- 26:57Speaker 9: holding on that. Coming back and just a second, we
- 27:00Speaker 9: will wrap up our portion of the day is we've
- 27:02Speaker 9: both got things we've got a jet out for before

- 35:05Speaker 5: clock and Like jason is charged.
- 35:08Speaker 9: UP i am ready to dive into as we were
- 35:11Speaker 9: talking about what is going on WITH, dc what was
- 35:14Speaker 9: going on With, marvel and you went into phase four
- 35:16Speaker 9: AND i was. DIVING i was about to jump into
- 35:20Speaker 9: the getting ready for the New doomsday that's coming out
- 35:24Speaker 9: and the.
- 35:25Speaker 1: The how they ARE i forgot how the.
- 35:28Speaker 9: The word that they're using as the with the new
- 35:34Speaker 9: cuts for endgame that you, had like that are going
- 35:39Speaker 9: to be basically required to go Into doomsday because all
- 35:44Speaker 9: of that is now leading into. It and what was
- 35:47Speaker 9: going to frustrate me about that is, yea and it
- 35:51Speaker 9: ties into something that we you AND i both liked a,
- 35:54Speaker 9: lot which Was loki and how all of that was
- 35:59Speaker 9: set up for For king to be the big bad
- 36:02Speaker 9: and not getting into what happened With Justin, majors but
- 36:07Speaker 9: just like just recast the character.
- 36:10Speaker 5: TRUE i mean there you, Can, yeah the The Jonathan
- 36:15Speaker 5: majors of it all had had an, impact but you
- 36:18Speaker 5: can also just point to the fact That phase four
- 36:23Speaker 5: was just let down after let down after let. DOWN i,
- 36:27Speaker 5: mean you know there were you, KNOW i never saw Ant, man,
- 36:34Speaker 5: uh Quant Quantum. Mania, uh didn't See Captain America Brave New,
- 36:41Speaker 5: world regret Seeing Doctor strange.
- 36:47Speaker 9: That that one was in the multiverse in the Verseon.
- 36:50Speaker 5: Madness uh really have not kept. Up did Watch falcon
- 36:57Speaker 5: in The Winter, soldier WHICH i thought did an excellent
- 37:00Speaker 5: job coming off Of In games and trying to start
- 37:06Speaker 5: us into this new universe in addition To. Loki did
- 37:09Speaker 5: not see did not Watch, hawkeye did not watch.
- 37:12Speaker 1: THE tv shows during that were very, good.
- 37:17Speaker 5: Very, good except For Secret, invasion and that.
- 37:20Speaker 9: Just Secret invasion let me down because the, production like
- 37:24Speaker 9: THEY i don't think the story was actually, bad the
- 37:28Speaker 9: production of it, awful which then made the story, bad
- 37:31Speaker 9: which because you're, like none of this looks like worthy of,
- 37:37Speaker 9: anything and so like when you have the production value
- 37:40Speaker 9: of win or so Not.
- 37:42Speaker 1: Winter so the one that you just said With hawk Not,
- 37:48Speaker 1: hawk with.
- 37:48Speaker 9: Uh Falcon falcon like the production like that was all
- 37:53Speaker 9: and that tied into the store like it just shows
- 37:55Speaker 9: how much of.
- 37:56Speaker 5: It, oh also have not Seen New avengers or was pretty,
- 38:01Speaker 5: GOOD i, know AND I thunderbolt and probably need to see.
- 38:04Speaker 5: That BUT i think that's part of why again you
- 38:10Speaker 5: brought The Russo brothers. BACK i mean you you called
- 38:16Speaker 5: up r D. J and that's gonna be sure it's
- 38:20Speaker 5: going to.
- 38:20Speaker 9: Work I'm, i'm. I'M i will Give kevin fig and
- 38:25Speaker 9: and and the and the guys at THE mcu.
- 38:28Speaker 1: A little bit longer of a.
- 38:29Speaker 9: Leash but the one Thing i'll, say going back to
- 38:32Speaker 9: The Jonathan majors of it, all it just felt like
- 38:35Speaker 9: they panicked and it's, like.
- 38:39Speaker 5: WELL i THINK i think they used they used that
- 38:43Speaker 5: part and parcel as an excuse for what what was,
- 38:46Speaker 5: happening which you saw declining, numbers you saw worse and worse.
- 38:50Speaker 5: Reviews most, importantly your core fan base is telling, you
- 38:55Speaker 5: we're not enjoying this as. Much but was.
- 38:58Speaker 9: That The was that the stories or was that the
- 39:03Speaker 9: characters and the people that they were.
- 39:05Speaker 5: CHOOSING i, MEAN i would make a case that Like
- 39:10Speaker 5: guardians of The, galaxy that was a huge surprise because
- 39:15Speaker 5: for most, people no one knew no one knew those people,
- 39:18Speaker 5: existed and you turned that into a very bankable franchise
- 39:22Speaker 5: ant man while you may know, him you definitely didn't
- 39:26Speaker 5: think he could lead a movie and paid off with
- 39:29Speaker 5: who you cast in. That but you also made a compelling.
- 39:32Speaker 5: Story AND i think that's what it just felt like
- 39:35Speaker 5: was lacking from those from Those phase four, movies was
- 39:39Speaker 5: you have you have a rich ip to pull, from
- 39:45Speaker 5: but you're what you still have to write a compelling
- 39:49Speaker 5: script and, story and that's WHAT i think just felt
- 39:52Speaker 5: lacking in all of.
- 39:54Speaker 1: It it absolutely.
- 39:56Speaker 9: Did we you AND i have to go do civic
- 40:01Speaker 9: duties in multiple places.
- 40:03Speaker 1: Today i've got to head over to City.
- 40:04Speaker 9: Hall you've got a rotary meeting that we're going to

- 43:41Speaker 20: Welcome back In Riley. Dorsey here in joining us once
- 43:44Speaker 20: AGAIN brows Is Volley bomber's head Coach Ryan targosh for
- 43:47Speaker 20: our Weekly bombers check. In, So, ryan since we talked last,
- 43:50Speaker 20: week this team has gone six and oh of the past,
- 43:52Speaker 20: games and y'all are now eight and two here in
- 43:55Speaker 20: the month Of. July and SOMETHING i found really interesting
- 43:58Speaker 20: was that all these wins have looked at a little
- 44:00Speaker 20: different from each, other where one night it's seventeen runs
- 44:03Speaker 20: and the next it's a three and one ball. Game
- 44:05Speaker 20: but either, way y'all are still finding a way to.
- 44:07Speaker 20: Win so what's the biggest thing that's shown? You this
- 44:10Speaker 20: team has become comfortable adjusting to whatever kind of game they're.
- 44:13Speaker 21: Playing, yeah it's funny how you mentioned. That it's there's
- 44:19Speaker 21: definitely quite a lot of different ways to win ball,
- 44:22Speaker 21: games and we've definitely shown that this past. Week BUT
- 44:27Speaker 21: i think the one thing That i've told these guys
- 44:30Speaker 21: this past, week and it's really come to, life is
- 44:35Speaker 21: that you have to play all nine innings just in.
- 44:40Speaker 21: CASE i, mean it's you never know if it's going
- 44:43Speaker 21: to be a three to one ball game like this past,
- 44:46Speaker 21: week or a seventeen to fifteen and we score eleven
- 44:50Speaker 21: and two innings in the seven and. Eighth you just
- 44:53Speaker 21: you just never, know and so you just have to
- 44:56Speaker 21: play each pitch just as as it's important as if
- 45:01Speaker 21: it were the bottom of the, ninth two out spaces
- 45:04Speaker 21: loaded in that scenario that every kid dreams of being.
- 45:08Speaker 21: In but you always have to play pitch to pitch
- 45:13Speaker 21: just because you because you never really know what pitch
- 45:16Speaker 21: is gonna win the, game or what HiT's gonna win the,
- 45:19Speaker 21: game what plays gonna what plays gonna win the, game
- 45:22Speaker 21: and so you have to, play, uh through the first
- 45:26Speaker 21: inning through the ninth, inning AND i think we did
- 45:29Speaker 21: a great job of that this last.
- 45:31Speaker 20: Week, yeah absolutely. So then when a game's kind of
- 45:35Speaker 20: unfolding differently than y'all would, expect what are some of
- 45:39Speaker 20: the little things that you start noticing that tell you your
- 45:42Speaker 20: team starting to adjust in the right.
- 45:43Speaker 21: Way it's to, me it's it's doing it is doing
- 45:50Speaker 21: those little things right of you, know taking what the
- 45:53Speaker 21: game gives. You let's, say from an offensive point of,
- 45:57Speaker 21: view it's if a pitch sure is kind of spraying
- 46:01Speaker 21: the balls around around the zone and he's not really
- 46:04Speaker 21: throwing strikes, well instead of trying to make something, happen
- 46:09Speaker 21: it's just taking your walk and passing the back to
- 46:11Speaker 21: the next. Guy and on, defense, uh it's just making
- 46:15Speaker 21: the routine plays that you don't get any extra points
- 46:19Speaker 21: for being flashy or fancy with. It it's just making
- 46:22Speaker 21: the play and moving. On as a, pitcher it's you,
- 46:27Speaker 21: know it's. Baseball you're gonna get hit. Around you're not
- 46:31Speaker 21: your every outing is not going to be your, Best
- 46:33Speaker 21: but it's how how well can you respond to. Adversity
- 46:37Speaker 21: say you give up two hits in a? Row, okay
- 46:40Speaker 21: how quick CAN i get back in the zone and throw?
- 46:43Speaker 21: Strikes AND i believe that Has that was the name
- 46:47Speaker 21: of the game for us this past.
- 46:48Speaker 19: Week AND.
- 46:50Speaker 21: I know you've heard me say it a million, times
- 46:52Speaker 21: but it's, that's, uh that's what winning baseball. Is and
- 46:58Speaker 21: ironically that's what happened is past week and so but
- 47:02Speaker 21: last week is last. Week that doesn't help us this
- 47:05Speaker 21: week or. Nothing no game carries over to this. Week
- 47:08Speaker 21: so we just have to go out there and continue
- 47:10Speaker 21: to play that winning baseball that we did this past.
- 47:12Speaker 20: Week, yeah, Definitely and hearing you talk about, that it's
- 47:16Speaker 20: just like every baseball game has its own path and
- 47:20Speaker 20: there's really just those moments where one decision can really change.
- 47:23Speaker 20: Everything and so how do you kind of balance with
- 47:27Speaker 20: thinking a few innings ahead while also staying focused on
- 47:30Speaker 20: what's happening right in front of?
- 47:31Speaker 21: You, YEAH i think just watching how the game goes
- 47:36Speaker 21: and kind of understanding of what's going on is you
- 47:43Speaker 21: can kind of you can kind of see how a
- 47:45Speaker 21: game unfolds and see how you're probably gonna go about
- 47:48Speaker 21: it and coach that. Way i'd, Say i'd say the
- 47:54Speaker 21: seventeen to fifteen, win And, Sherman i'd, say, obviously it
- 47:59Speaker 21: was definitely an offensive kind of, game and so that
- 48:03Speaker 21: is where you know the runs are going to be.
- 48:07Speaker 21: Scored so then then from a coaching, perspective NOW i
- 48:10Speaker 21: just have to see on how much can we limit
- 48:13Speaker 21: damage on the, Basis, okay what kind of pitcher is
- 48:16Speaker 21: going to be best for this? Situation could be a
- 48:20Speaker 21: matchup situation on WHERE i throw a certain guy for
- 48:23Speaker 21: a certain to three batters just BECAUSE i know that
- 48:27Speaker 21: the offensive is going to. Produce and then on the
- 48:30Speaker 21: flip side of, things then we have a three to
- 48:33Speaker 21: one ball game that we played and we won it's. That, okay,
- 48:37Speaker 21: WELL i know my pitching is going to. BE i
- 48:40Speaker 21: know What i'm going to get out of my. Pitching, Okay,
- 48:43Speaker 21: now it's what kind of lineup CAN i write that's
- 48:46Speaker 21: going to be consistent one through nine to put guys
- 48:52Speaker 21: in certain spots that are going to put them in
- 48:54Speaker 21: the best situation to score. Runs and just because that's
- 48:58Speaker 21: how the game is going to, unfold and that's kind
- 49:00Speaker 21: of what the situation. Is and there's just there's quite
- 49:05Speaker 21: there's several ways to win ball. Games it can be
- 49:07Speaker 21: an offensive kind of. Day it could be maybe the
- 49:11Speaker 21: pitchers that go out there and give up two hits one,
- 49:14Speaker 21: run and maybe our offense only scores two or three.
- 49:17Speaker 21: Runs and you can win the game on the bass
- 49:20Speaker 21: pass if no one's, hitting if if we can get
- 49:24Speaker 21: walks guys on, base we can steal. BAGS i, mean
- 49:27Speaker 21: WE'VE i think we've won a couple of games where
- 49:30Speaker 21: we've had single digit, hits but we've scored in the
- 49:34Speaker 21: higher end of seven and eight runs just because that
- 49:37Speaker 21: we did really go on a base. Pass so you
- 49:40Speaker 21: just never, know you never really know what kind of
- 49:42Speaker 21: game you're gonna. Get but you can also kind of
- 49:45Speaker 21: have an idea on how you're going to manage, It.
- 49:49Speaker 15: Yeah for.
- 49:50Speaker 20: Sure so then when y'all are trying to figure out
- 49:53Speaker 20: who to line, up who to matchup and all, that
- 49:56Speaker 20: how much of those decisions are group discussions between you
- 49:59Speaker 20: and your coaching, stuff and how much of it ultimately
- 50:02Speaker 20: comes down to your.
- 50:03Speaker 21: Decision, uh every every decision THAT i, MAKE i try
- 50:09Speaker 21: and make it a point to discuss it with with
- 50:11Speaker 21: with my. Assistance just Because i'm obviously a young, COACH
- 50:19Speaker 21: i need all the help THAT i can, get and
- 50:22Speaker 21: SO i. Do i'd say more on the defensive side
- 50:26Speaker 21: of the. Pitching just Because i'm not a pitching. MIND
- 50:31Speaker 21: i do, ask you, know for for a matchup guy
- 50:35Speaker 21: that we can put in for our first relief, guy
- 50:37Speaker 21: that who would be the. Best AND i have an,
- 50:39Speaker 21: Idea But i'll run and by our pitching coach and
- 50:41Speaker 21: he'll he'll give me his thoughts and we'll both come
- 50:44Speaker 21: to a point where we can agree. On and then
- 50:47Speaker 21: from an offensive point of, view another one of our,
- 50:51Speaker 21: assistants me and him will we'll kind of talk about.
- 50:55Speaker 21: It we'll see who's swinging it, well who's not swinging it?
- 50:57Speaker 21: Well who who do we need to maybe give them
- 51:02Speaker 21: a game off to talk about some. Things maybe that
- 51:04Speaker 21: can help them. Out but mostly mostly it's an overall
- 51:09Speaker 21: it's it's all a. Team it's a team and coaching.
- 51:12Speaker 21: Decision and then sometimes it's just MAYBE i have a
- 51:16Speaker 21: gut feeling about something just Because i've played played a
- 51:22Speaker 21: little bit OF d one, baseball AND i THINK i
- 51:26Speaker 21: have one hundred and eighty games underneath my, belt So
- 51:28Speaker 21: i've Seen i've seen a little bit of. Things sometimes
- 51:31Speaker 21: it's just an intuition and guts feeling on something THAT
- 51:35Speaker 21: i MAYBE i may think it's the right, thing and
- 51:39Speaker 21: sometimes it's, right sometimes it's. Wrong but IF i go
- 51:42Speaker 21: ahead and make the, DECISION i, CAN i, CAN i
- 51:45Speaker 21: can live with. It but IF i start second guests on,
- 51:47Speaker 21: myself and that's WHERE i probably won't maybe to live with,
- 51:50Speaker 21: it and that might stick with me for a little
- 51:51Speaker 21: bit for.
- 51:52Speaker 20: Sure definitely just got to stick to your Gut and
- 51:55Speaker 20: sounds like you'll have a good system going with just
- 51:58Speaker 20: how to make these. Justis but, well as we're getting
- 52:02Speaker 20: into the point of the summer where we're starting to
- 52:05Speaker 20: just look ahead a little bit to the, POSTSEASON i
- 52:08Speaker 20: know your message is always just winning the day and
- 52:10Speaker 20: one game at, Time but at what point does the
- 52:13Speaker 20: focus shift from simply winning today's game to preparing for
- 52:17Speaker 20: the kind of baseball it takes to win in the.
- 52:19Speaker 17: Playoffs, YEAH i.
- 52:23Speaker 21: THINK i think some of the guys are kind of
- 52:26Speaker 21: seeing the success that we have and, uh they're kind
- 52:29Speaker 21: of setting their sights on the. Playoffs to, ME i
- 52:35Speaker 21: think the playoffs is just a byproduct of what we
- 52:39Speaker 21: continue to do day in and day out and just
- 52:41Speaker 21: week to. Week and So i'd say as far as the,
- 52:45Speaker 21: players the player's job is to go out there and
- 52:48Speaker 21: just win that pitch when THAT i, bet when the
- 52:53Speaker 21: inning and has won the. Game and THEN i think
- 52:56Speaker 21: looking for looking forward and to the, playoffs that's gonna
- 53:01Speaker 21: be a coaching coaching things to think about as far as,
- 53:06Speaker 21: us just BECAUSE i know personally speaking that whenever you
- 53:10Speaker 21: look too far forward in advance and can kind of
- 53:14Speaker 21: take away your your focus on your current. Job and
- 53:18Speaker 21: so that's gonna Be that's gonna be the challenge moving
- 53:23Speaker 21: forward is that as the playoffs gets closer and, closer
- 53:26Speaker 21: that players will have that in, mind but we'll try
- 53:29Speaker 21: and keep them keep their focus on what's, on what's
- 53:34Speaker 21: that task and what's on, hand and so that'll be the,
- 53:38Speaker 21: challenge but it is something to think about for us
- 53:42Speaker 21: to kind of have pictures, ready have position players ready
- 53:45Speaker 21: to go for playoffs and and once you, know if
- 53:49Speaker 21: we keep doing what we're, doing and, uh if we
- 53:51Speaker 21: have success and we clinch a spot before the season is, done,
- 53:56Speaker 21: awesome that'll be great and that will give us some
- 53:58Speaker 21: more time to think about. It if, not we'll just
- 54:01Speaker 21: keep playing baseball and we'll see where it takes.
- 54:04Speaker 20: Us, well there you, go exactly all, Right, WELL i
- 54:07Speaker 20: think we'll leave it. There thank You ryan again for joining,
