  Speaker 1: Lebron James watch is hilarious. I can't lie. He's forty
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: one years old and he still got the pooll while
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: I'm sitting here just like everybody else on Twitter, trying
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: to dissect all of the tea leaves to figure out
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: where Lebron is signing next. This video is brought to
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: you by Factor. Factor delivers chefs crafted dietition to proved
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: ready to eat meals straight to your doorstep so you
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: keep wail all summer long without spending so much time
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: in the kitchen. Not on me personally, my schedule through
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: the summer gets so crazy that sometimes, believe it or not,
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: I completely forget meals. Factor is no planning, no prep,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: no cleanup. The meals are made with real ingredients, balanced macros,
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: at least two veggies per meal, and built to help
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: you hit your nutritional goals. I mentioned earlier that the
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: time that it takes to make a Factor meal is
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: one of the main reasons why I'm locked in. Let
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: me show you how easy it really is, So today
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: we're gonna try this three cheese lasgya. All I gotta
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: do is poke a few holes the top. This one
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: says microwave for four four minutes and then to be done.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: Now that right there looks amazing. All that was four
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: minute time, y'all. All of that was four minute time,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: and you saw how good that look. Come on, now,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: head over to Factor seventy five dot com and you
• 1:15

  Speaker 1: Factor customers. Put the code and qualifying auto renewing subscription
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: purchase simple as that. Shout out to Factor again for
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: sponsoring this video. And I feel like it makes me
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: feel like a kid again in a way because when
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: Lebron made the first decision to go to Miami, I
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: remember turning on Sports Center and lead it up to it,
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: trying to just figure out if anybody had any inside scoop.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: At that time, my Chicago Bulls were rumored to be
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: one of the teams, so I was really into a week.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: I'll have Derrick Rose, Lebron James, Oh my God, so
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: he went another direction, and that was my beginning of
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: hating you, Bron. But guess what, now, in my old
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: age age we locked in baby were cool now, But
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: I just remember being a kid in those moments and
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: how cool it was. And I'm kind of feeling like
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: that again, Like he did go back to Cleveland in
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: my in my mind, and maybe this is revisions history.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: Cleveland was the only destination he was going back home.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: But now it could be Cleveland, it could be Philly,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: it could be Golden State, it could be this team,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: it could be that team. Anything can happen. And just
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: like some of the reports that are coming out about
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: all of these things are objectively hilarious, like the one
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Dave mcmannahan had a little while ago that said teams
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: sending what up Wendy team sending recruiting voice notes to
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Lebron James via Rich Paul. That is hilarious. Now, I
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: ain't gonna act like I know all the ins and
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: outs of being an agent and being an executive of
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: the team, but I can't imagine that a lot of
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: the recruitment process happens through I message, voice memos and
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: voice messages. Imagine being Mike Gancy who just pulled off
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: the trade to bring in Jay, leb Brown. We got MAXI,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: we got VJJ, leb Brown, Jewel embiid and oh if
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: only we had bro, if only we had Broun. And
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: instead of talking to Rich Paul personally, instead of talking
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: to Lebron z AA's person and giving you a pitch,
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: you gotta go through a voice message. You know what's
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: more difficult. It is I feel like, in real time,
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: you take that meeting, whether it be on the phone
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: or whether it be in person, you know that this
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: is your meeting. There is no undues, there is no whatever.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: You give your pitch and that's it. A voice memo.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: I would think through it a million different times. Is
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: that first line good enough? No, let me rewind it,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Let me try that again. Is that second line good enough?
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Is that convince enough? Let me redo it again. So, like,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: I don't know if these voice messages are one minute
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: long or forty minutes long. This is Lebron, Jay's be
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: talking about and Lebron, even in this old age of
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: forty one and going to be forty two years old.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Throughout the course of the season, Steal does have the
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: pool and the talent to say, hey, if he goes
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: to so and so team, he can swing the title
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: odds completely. And there are some teams are in the race.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: I ain't wont a championship forever. Some of the teams
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: in the race ain't want a championship since the last
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: time Bron was on the team. So yeah, these memos
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: better be crazy, and they I don't know, maybe they are.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: I'm just sad that we'll never get an opportunity to
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: see those memos. So I kind of wanted to talk
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: through some of the funniness that has come out of
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: all of this. So people trying to find the teelies
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: first of all, to Steve Kerr have a stash right here?
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: Is that new? Is that new look for Steve Kurr.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: It kind of reminds me of a of a guy
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: photis at first anyway, Yeah, and when you get Lebron
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: man Lebron Okay, that's good, Okay, I got it, he
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: say we got him? Put that on Twitter. Obviously, Steve
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Kurrs trolling. I think Dramond Green even came out and
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: said he's just trolling because that's all he's been getting asked.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: But this this video at least on just this one
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: tweet I'm looking at has two million views and forty
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: thousand likes. Forty thousand. Is Lebron going to the Warriors?
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: I don't, I don't know. I think what makes it
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: extra special is that early on we found out that
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: Lebron James is making this decision. But it's not money
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: related at all. Bron, you know he'll back chase it,
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: just like you should be. But the fact that you
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: can you bringing the guy who still plays in an
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: All NBA level potentially for a minimum change the dynamic
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: of everything associated with the team. All of the teams
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: that are really in the Lebron sweepstakes have no money
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: to really spend on Lebron type of player, but if
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: you can get them for the lol, oh my god,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: we're in the Swape States, so like even that. So
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: Lebron James Boom, his fit with the Warriors is pretty
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: interesting to me. I think he also. I can't speak Lebron,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: but I wonder how much of what his decision looks
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: like has to do with the legacy afterwards. You're like,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Kenny's forty one years old, his legacy is set. And
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: I completely completely agree. I would say, Lebron James has
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: nothing left to prove. His legacy, can't get any worse.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: That's just that's how I feel. But everybody don't feel
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: that same way, right, So, the idea of potentially going
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: to the Warriors, a team that beat on the finals
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: multiple times, a team that you beat in the finals
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: even though you are forty one and Steph Curry's in
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: his late thirties, I think that some people take that
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: as a as a knock off the resume, and I
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: wonder how much of that stuff Lebron thinks about. I
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: remember all the years back when he came back from
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: down three one, he was asked about being the goat,
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: and he said that is the moment he felt like
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: the goat. So I wonder if he still feels like
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: the goat in his mind? Does he care about what
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: the talking heads will say about him joining the Warriors
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: or what the twitter messages will look like if he
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: joined the words. I don't have the answer to that,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: But as a basketball fan, watching him on the Warriors
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: will be fun. We got to see it in the
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty four Olympics, him and Steph Curry. That was cool.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: But I don't know, if Lebron james attitude that roster
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: makes me feel like that team is a true, true
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: title contender. Time will tell, but it would be tough
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: for me to look at that Warriors and say that's
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: the one. Now is rumored that if Lebron James does
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: decide to go to God and say Warriors, that the
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Warriors will put picks and whatever they have in a
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: treasure trove on the table to make this last hurrah
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: or real last or roster that I'm looking at you,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler, in a big ass contract. If you attach
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: some first round picks of that, you'd probably get some
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: interesting players. But we'll see. You know. That's another one
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: of the little caveat pieces of all of this. The
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: Warriors on one of those teams that if you went
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: to I still think there's work to do. And I
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: feel as though most of the teams as of today
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: kind of feel solid about their roster, Like I would
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: feel really weird about trying to pull off a superstar
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: level trade at this moment in time, because I felt
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: you just kind of accepted that free agency in the
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: trade season is over right. I know, We've got some
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: crazy trades at the card than the towns. You just
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: ran the trade that happened right before training camp. But
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: right now I look at my Bulls team and I
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: say that team is gonna be that's our set roster,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: while some of these other places like Cleveland, or like
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: Philly or some of these Miami, I don't know if
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: there's any super big changes to do with that current roster.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: We say Lebron's gonna come into the same and boom,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: our chances of winning are exponentially higher. And I like,
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I know some people hate stuff like this,
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: but I like when the players really play into it,
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: really play into it. Yesterday, Hall Leiburn tweeted tomorrow it's
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: time at King James. This tweet has almost a hundred
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: thousand likes. Shut Out to CSB for the edit almost
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: has a hundred thousand likes because people thought there was
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: a possibility that that meant that Lebron James was making
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: his decision, and there's a small percentage of people thinking
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: that the Indiana Pace be that team. Now, Indiana Pacer,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: I'm not one of those teams that are truly truly
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: in the running. And I'm not just saying that Lebron
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: said that himself. Harys Hallibird said he made a recruiting
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: pitch to bring Lebron to Indiana. Bron responded with two
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: laughing emojis. So he's on any animationis chances. But because
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: just because he said it's time tomorrow on almost one
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: hundred thousand people say yes, I'm locking in. And what
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: Halle was doing was the course playing until the joke
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: of Lebron have to make this big decision, but also
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: talking about they had a panel to do together at
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: at fanatics Fest. At fanatics Fest, that's that's what it was.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: They were gonna do a little podcast s tapment of
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: mind the Game live in front of an audience that
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: what was happening tomorrow which is today, And you know
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: what I get. I gotta give credit to Halle because
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: he did. He did push the envelope just a little bit.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: You know. He asked about the decision of free agency.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: Being a journalist, he says, we already talked about that
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: in the back. He said, okay, okay, I'll leave it alone.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: I don't know if that means Halle knows what's going
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: happening or Lebron gave him them, pr answers Thatbron has
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: been given off off season long. I'm not completely sure.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: Just right before I started, Sean was on Pat McAfee,
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: and I'll just read this quote instead of letting you
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: listen to Sham's. He says, the Warriors, to my knowledge,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: are beyond other teams such as Miami, A Cleveland, and
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: a Philadelphia. And this kind of does make sense to me.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Lebron just spent the last one eight years out west,
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: and though the Eastern Conference is way deeper now than
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: it was when he left, it still feels I don't
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: USU were open. The Nicks literally won a championship two
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: months ago, but it does feel like there's a little
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: bit more. The parody stretches larger than out West, if
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: that makes sense. So going back out East maybe not
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: the worst idea for bra Bron. A Miami, A Cleveland
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: of Philadelphia all three teams that have intriguing fits for Lebron. James.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: Two of these teams he knows very well because he's
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: played for them before. And then that last team Philadelphia,
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: right like, look at this, Lebron is enjoying golf today
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: with Philadelphia native Kevin Hart. That's how deep these things
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: are going. When we're all trying to figure stuff out
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: where they say he's golfing and he's golfing with somebody
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: from Philly. What that means though, there's another one here,
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: since Lebron appears to be golfing in New Jersey today,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: that's it. That's it, and it's like like that's now.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: I've been a free agent before, not a Lebron James
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: level free agent, Don't get me wrong, but I do
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: want to say it is fun as hell, and it
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: is cool as hell for people to want you to
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: play for their team or wants your services, it must
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: be cool as hell. When David Minhiman talks about how
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: all of the stars on the seventy sixes have made
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: their own pitch to Lebron James, with Terry's MAXI leading
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: the charge, you know what I mean, It's got to
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: be super fun to just be wanted to this level.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's Bron. I mean every team is one
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: of him since I don't know, two thousand and two,
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: right before he got into the league. But it is
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: so it is so amazing that we got all of this.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: Shawn's supporting that his top three teams at this point,
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: all the three teams mentioned earlier of Cleveland and Miami
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: in a Philadelphia. I really did like the idea of Minnesota,
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: mostly for the fun factor. That's kind of the way
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: I've been looking at it all. I want to see
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: Lebron going the most fun team as a as a
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: viewer of the game, but I know Bron's got to
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: think a lot deeper than that. But like the idea
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: of LaMelo, Lebron, Anthony, David, Anthony Edwards, and Rudy Gobert
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: would be Jame mcgamson, sorry, would be pretty fun on
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: the league past type of thing. But what team do
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: I feel like he has the highest chance to help
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: get over the hump and be a championship team? Probably
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: is Philly. I think Bron goes to the Philly team
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: and he's the He's like the facilitator that they're missing.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: And they got a lot of solid playmakers. Don't get
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: me wrong, but like, Lebron is one of the greatest
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: playmakers of all time, and we're basically having four other
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: people on the court that are threats on the catch
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: and threats off the dribble. It's insane. Now I am
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: curious about what the possessions look like with Broun and
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: Embid on the court and they're not working together, and
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: it's like Embiid on the high post. I'm sure they'll
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: work it out. I mean, these are great players, but
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: that is one of the thing I'm thinking about it. But
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: as far as like Lebron getting plopped into a team
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: and know are the moves around it, but him just
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: going to the team making them a contender, I think
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: Philadel it has to be number one in that list.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: The Cavs are just in the conference finals, though they
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: got swept by the Knicks. I don't know. It is
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: still a lot of questioning my mind of mister James Harder,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: as far as like what he looks like in the
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: playoffs on the time and time basis, like what is
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: Braun really doing when James Harden is cooking at the
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: top of the key and vice versa, because neither of
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: these guys have been phenomenal off the ball over the
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: last couple of seasons. Miami just is like a hodgepodge
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: group of things. And you wonder about fit with Bam
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: and Giannis and the talent is gonna be the talent?
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: The town's gonna be the talent. I wonder how much
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: of that is this decision making too, Like, yeah, it
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: might be kind of clunky, but we are all top
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: whatever players in the league, so we'll make it work.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I just know I'm really excited to
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: see what happens. And I just know. Actually I wonder
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: how it's gonna be done. Is it strictly gonna be
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: a Sean Sherania post that don't feel Bron related? Do it? Like?
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: I feel like Bron is gonna go on, man the game,
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: go live on Instagram, go live on YouTube and say
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: announcement in ten minutes to see how many people come
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: to the YouTube channel, and then boom, you gotta subscrip. Yeah,
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: we played a social media game round here. Now Bron,
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: you gotta subscribe, and I'm gonna announce it in twelve minutes.
• 13:05
