- 3:14Speaker 1: and have a lot of fun. We got a lot
- 3:15Speaker 1: of hot takes to hump throughout the day. We got
- 3:18Speaker 1: some conversation on the Milwaukee Brewers, even though there was
- 3:21Speaker 1: not a game last night. There's a hot take. I
- 3:23Speaker 1: don't know how hot it might be around Brewers fandom.
- 3:25Speaker 1: That a question as to how long and how long
- 3:28Speaker 1: a certain leash is.
- 3:30Speaker 2: Seat's getting hot.
- 3:31Speaker 1: And also I got a hot, hot, hot conversation that
- 3:35Speaker 1: I already know is going to soil my man. Arman, Sorry,
- 3:39Speaker 1: and good thank how you feeling?
- 3:40Speaker 2: Good morning, guys, Good morning, Billy and Dave. You know
- 3:44Speaker 2: soil me?
- 3:45Speaker 5: Like, come on, man, let me get through the show
- 3:47Speaker 5: at least, like, give me a couple of segments.
- 3:48Speaker 2: At least, bro. I mean, I want to soil mysel.
- 3:51Speaker 1: The thing is a lot of how it happens is
- 3:55Speaker 1: what you hear last is what's top of mind, what
- 3:58Speaker 1: the first thing that you can feel is.
- 4:00Speaker 2: And as I was rolling.
- 4:02Speaker 1: Through the morning, I was able to, thanks to a
- 4:06Speaker 1: seven thirty start on the second game yesterday, watch both
- 4:09Speaker 1: of the NBA playoff games last night, right and both
- 4:12Speaker 1: conclusions in the or the conclusion in the NHL with
- 4:15Speaker 1: the Wild and Avalanche good one. No Brewers, and we
- 4:18Speaker 1: were tucked in bed at a reasonable time last night,
- 4:20Speaker 1: so I had some time this morning and tapping around
- 4:23Speaker 1: on the show prep and reading around and listening whenever
- 4:25Speaker 1: we can. Stumbled upon a conversation that already online has
- 4:31Speaker 1: some people with some traction of noted Boston Celtics lover
- 4:36Speaker 1: Bill Simmons discussing the possibility of Giannis at Tetacumbo being
- 4:39Speaker 1: a trade target.
- 4:40Speaker 5: Ah, yes, why did I see that? And come across
- 4:42Speaker 5: the Boston Celtics. Of course he wants them on the Celtics.
- 4:46Speaker 5: Of course he would love to have that. Of course,
- 4:48Speaker 5: Bill Simmons, and the desperate people of Brookline, in Dorchester
- 4:53Speaker 5: and and over want any help they can for their
- 4:55Speaker 5: beloved Celtics, who about out in the first round sort
- 4:58Speaker 5: of unceremoniously.
- 5:00Speaker 2: So we'll get into that.
- 5:01Speaker 5: I like, I thought you might be going there or
- 5:04Speaker 5: a different Oh, we're going there. I assumed you were
- 5:07Speaker 5: going right to the arm and Special, which was Hall
- 5:10Speaker 5: of Fame gatekeeping conversations, since we do have the class
- 5:13Speaker 5: out for twenty twenty seven. But we'll get to that
- 5:16Speaker 5: as well throughout a week class. Maybe there isn't much
- 5:19Speaker 5: debate there.
- 5:20Speaker 2: But I thought that's where you were going. But I
- 5:21Speaker 2: do like the honest thing.
- 5:23Speaker 1: Well, and you say that, of course they want some
- 5:25Speaker 1: help and we discussed it as throughout the majority of
- 5:29Speaker 1: the end of the regular season that the goal of
- 5:32Speaker 1: watching this postseason was to see who went out in
- 5:34Speaker 1: the worst fashion and who felt the desperation, who felt
- 5:38Speaker 1: the Yanks, who felt the pressure from maybe the internal folks,
- 5:42Speaker 1: maybe the folks in the owner's suite, maybe the individuals
- 5:46Speaker 1: that are in the locker room, maybe the folks that
- 5:47Speaker 1: jump on a Twitch stream and say that, you know,
- 5:49Speaker 1: after winning conference MVP, conference finals, MVP finals, MVP, winning
- 5:55Speaker 1: a title, playing and I believe six conference finals in
- 5:58Speaker 1: your career, say in the year you bow out the
- 6:00Speaker 1: first round and your running mate is out with the
- 6:02Speaker 1: torn achilles, was the most fun year you had in
- 6:04Speaker 1: your entire career. A lot of times that sparks up
- 6:07Speaker 1: even more conversations. Yeah, it's it's a hot one of
- 6:11Speaker 1: what would be the most painful exit and which one
- 6:15Speaker 1: would be the worst place to potentially send the big
- 6:17Speaker 1: fella two. And I don't know that many people thought
- 6:21Speaker 1: the Boston Celtics were gonna run down that ramp and
- 6:23Speaker 1: have their entrance music played this early into the Giannis Rumble,
- 6:27Speaker 1: But all of a sudden they're the number one participant
- 6:30Speaker 1: because they're the first team out.
- 6:31Speaker 2: That's as desperate as anybody. That's the thing.
- 6:33Speaker 5: I think we first, the first and foremost, we didn't
- 6:36Speaker 5: initially assume they'd be out this early.
- 6:38Speaker 2: I think that's probably the main thing, is like.
- 6:40Speaker 1: They were the odds on favorites to win the East
- 6:41Speaker 1: by a mile, yeah, and deservedly so. I think walking
- 6:44Speaker 1: into the playoffs, I think when they were up three one,
- 6:46Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, well, I think they're the team
- 6:47Speaker 1: to beat. I told Dennis Crawsey that in the round
- 6:50Speaker 1: table a couple weeks ago. I hope no one has
- 6:51Speaker 1: that tape, and I said they're the team to beat
- 6:54Speaker 1: in the East.
- 6:54Speaker 5: Yeah. I mean I think that's that's the Uh, that's
- 6:57Speaker 5: the reason. And I could see but the but would
- 7:01Speaker 5: that be the worst place for Giannis to go? I
- 7:03Speaker 5: mean it would hurt me, It would hurt me emotionally.
- 7:05Speaker 1: Well, if that's the question at eight seven seven seven nine,
- 7:07Speaker 1: four seven three, and most importantly that people want to
- 7:10Speaker 1: hear from Wisconsin's fan, America's fan arman, sorry, and would
- 7:14Speaker 1: that be the most painful place to see Giannis A
- 7:17Speaker 1: Tetakumbo play basketball?
- 7:18Speaker 2: In twenty six, twenty seven.
- 7:19Speaker 5: It really probably would be. I mean it'd be a
- 7:22Speaker 5: I mean, I don't the Pacers would be. But I
- 7:25Speaker 5: don't think there's any chance he's going to the Pacers.
- 7:27Speaker 5: They're just not in that situation. It's not really the likelihood.
- 7:30Speaker 5: They're not really a contender. Relationship also seems like it's
- 7:33Speaker 5: just not little tough. Obviously that's not a factor, right
- 7:35Speaker 5: for many reasons. So if you're gonna really go down
- 7:39Speaker 5: the laundry list of places, you might go a place
- 7:41Speaker 5: you don't want to go. You know, we just talked
- 7:42Speaker 5: about Minnesota, how we don't really see them as the
- 7:44Speaker 5: rival that I do with the Vikings and things like that.
- 7:47Speaker 5: That's always been a rumored place as well. Don't think
- 7:50Speaker 5: it would hurt me as much for some reason to
- 7:51Speaker 5: see him there. It's just the Timberwolves aren't that team.
- 7:54Speaker 5: I think them are the Bulls. I think those are
- 7:56Speaker 5: the two teams. I think it would hurt me to
- 7:57Speaker 5: see him be in red with the Chicago and it
- 8:00Speaker 5: would hurt me a lot to see him in green
- 8:02Speaker 5: with the Boston Celtics, just because they've been in our ire,
- 8:05Speaker 5: in our rivalry for so long, or at least a
- 8:07Speaker 5: team that we've been trying to battle.
- 8:09Speaker 1: For so long, the Heat and Celtics have been the Bucks'
- 8:13Speaker 1: biggest rival, wild Giannis has been a member of the team.
- 8:17Speaker 1: Can those two have been the biggest thorns in the
- 8:20Speaker 1: side and the ones that have prohibited them and prevented
- 8:22Speaker 1: them the most.
- 8:23Speaker 5: Definitely, the one thing would make me happy though, is
- 8:25Speaker 5: I do feel like it would be It would be
- 8:29Speaker 5: funny to watch in Boston because if Giannis goes there
- 8:32Speaker 5: right away, there's the identity crisis, because like it'd become
- 8:34Speaker 5: Yannest's team and then right away you'd see like, well see,
- 8:38Speaker 5: I think it would be. But then again, Janness, I
- 8:42Speaker 5: honest is kind of like the sun that all my
- 8:43Speaker 5: thoughts revolve around. In that sense, He's joining a team
- 8:46Speaker 5: that just won the title a couple of years a
- 8:48Speaker 5: couple of years ago, but they've already had He's the
- 8:50Speaker 5: guy joining the culture, and he's the guy that then
- 8:52Speaker 5: would be joining the team whose coach he had some
- 8:57Speaker 5: pretty ridiculously hot praise for.
- 8:59Speaker 1: No Yeah, when they came to town just a couple
- 9:01Speaker 1: of weeks ago. I don't necessarily know that it becomes
- 9:05Speaker 1: Yannis's team. I would actually counter with Jannis would like
- 9:10Speaker 1: to go to Boston because it wouldn't have to be
- 9:12Speaker 1: his team.
- 9:12Speaker 2: Maybe, but I feel like he'd be. I just still
- 9:16Speaker 2: feel like he'd be the center.
- 9:17Speaker 5: Well. I mean, you know, Tatum and Brown have had
- 9:19Speaker 5: that kind of like who's the biggest star thing going
- 9:22Speaker 5: on there, and Tatum when he's right is a top
- 9:24Speaker 5: five player obviously, But I also think that about Giannis
- 9:28Speaker 5: at least think we'd be witnessing identity crisis in Boston
- 9:31Speaker 5: a little bit, and that might be funny to see
- 9:33Speaker 5: how it shakes out. But I guess you know, in theory,
- 9:38Speaker 5: if you're y honest now on this part of your
- 9:40Speaker 5: career and you don't have to be the centerpiece, that
- 9:43Speaker 5: might be good for you because the pressure's off you
- 9:46Speaker 5: a little bit. There's not not as much focus on
- 9:48Speaker 5: what you're doing, you know, in game by defense isn't
- 9:51Speaker 5: off the court as well, and maybe the responsibility is shared,
- 9:55Speaker 5: so to speak. And maybe that's where some of the
- 9:58Speaker 5: best you know out are for teams. But I don't
- 10:01Speaker 5: want to see him in a Celtics uniform. Although Heat,
- 10:04Speaker 5: now now that I'm thinking about this, Miami Heat is
- 10:06Speaker 5: probably another team that would I'd share a credit as days.
- 10:09Speaker 1: For we are less than a month removed from the
- 10:12Speaker 1: article at the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that Laura Nickel wrote
- 10:16Speaker 1: when she was able to have the conversation with Giannis,
- 10:18Speaker 1: and he said, everything about my decision is based on
- 10:21Speaker 1: winning culture, like you saw. I talked to coach Joe Mizzoula.
- 10:27Speaker 1: I said, you had so many opportunities to make excuses,
- 10:30Speaker 1: but you didn't. And I said, oh, he said, oh,
- 10:35Speaker 1: they're good players. I said, no, it's about the mentality
- 10:39Speaker 1: that you instilled in your place.
- 10:41Speaker 2: He's going he'd be going to somebody else's place.
- 10:43Speaker 1: Yeah, I'd be going into getting a room in somebody
- 10:45Speaker 1: else's house. He would be going and fitting into somebody
- 10:48Speaker 1: else's already established foundation in trying to then take it
- 10:53Speaker 1: to a new level. I don't necessari and frankly, the
- 10:57Speaker 1: Bucks wouldn't from the end of k and all of this,
- 11:01Speaker 1: what it would mean from Milwaukee. I just want to know,
- 11:03Speaker 1: from the pure fan perspective, would that be the worst
- 11:07Speaker 1: place to see him play.
- 11:08Speaker 2: Basketball in twenty twenty six.
- 11:10Speaker 1: I think it would be. That would be akin to
- 11:13Speaker 1: for me personally to Chicago. How on earth it could
- 11:16Speaker 1: it could get worse?
- 11:17Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 11:17Speaker 1: Well, luckily now the Bulls set a couple of weeks ago.
- 11:20Speaker 1: At least we had the one guy, uh who did
- 11:22Speaker 1: TV in Chicago.
- 11:24Speaker 2: He's out now.
- 11:25Speaker 1: The entire front office and coaching staff, they're all out.
- 11:28Speaker 1: They could be interested, I don't think they are. I
- 11:30Speaker 1: think there would be a lot of other teams that
- 11:32Speaker 1: would And I think that the Boston Celtics would be
- 11:34Speaker 1: right front and center at the top of the list
- 11:37Speaker 1: because they fit the criteria that I talked about all
- 11:40Speaker 1: year long, which was the team that gets desperate enough
- 11:43Speaker 1: after the worst possible situation.
- 11:45Speaker 2: And the one that ultimately might get their hand forced.
- 11:47Speaker 2: I mean Jalen Brown.
- 11:48Speaker 1: Clearly, it appears that there is gonna be either a
- 11:51Speaker 1: Game of Throne situation in Boston and it's gonna be
- 11:54Speaker 1: him or me. And if they picked Jalen Brown, I
- 11:56Speaker 1: think anybody in planet Earth that would end up with
- 11:59Speaker 1: Jason Tatum would be in a much better situation. Sure, Sure,
- 12:01Speaker 1: but Jalen Brown was in the top five and MVP
- 12:04Speaker 1: candidacy this year. Yeah, there are a lot worse packages
- 12:07Speaker 1: you could get. I think he would probably be rerouted
- 12:10Speaker 1: and get you another significant package, maybe your own twenty
- 12:14Speaker 1: twenty seven first round pickback, which would be nice. If
- 12:17Speaker 1: the Bucks are going to be the warm cheeks that
- 12:20Speaker 1: we anticipate they probably would be in twenty six twenty seven,
- 12:23Speaker 1: to be able to actually have that asset would be
- 12:25Speaker 1: a nice thing.
- 12:27Speaker 2: And the Atlanta Hawks are the only team they can
- 12:28Speaker 2: offer that too.
- 12:29Speaker 1: You, So there's ways that this gets maneuvered and it
- 12:32Speaker 1: actually lines up decently well for both sides. It could
- 12:36Speaker 1: be the spot that nets you the best return and
- 12:40Speaker 1: the quickest chance to revival that sure also had to
- 12:44Speaker 1: do it just a couple of years ago and watch
- 12:47Speaker 1: one of your favorites, Drew Holliday go and hoist the title.
- 12:50Speaker 2: With that team in Green.
- 12:52Speaker 1: It hurt Banner eighteen to see that and to see
- 12:55Speaker 1: Giannis be the guy that ended up helping them continue
- 12:59Speaker 1: to just find new places in.
- 13:02Speaker 2: TV garden to put banners.
- 13:04Speaker 1: That would be the worst possible outcome, I think from
- 13:07Speaker 1: watching his entire thirteen year career with the Milwaukee Bucks,
- 13:10Speaker 1: the team that you found year in and year out
- 13:13Speaker 1: to be the biggest thorn in the side, the one
- 13:14Speaker 1: that ultimately ended their best chance to repeat or get
- 13:19Speaker 1: back after winning it in twenty one. Yeah, by coming
- 13:24Speaker 1: back from three to two beating you back to back
- 13:26Speaker 1: nights and seeing Tatum go for forty six in your building.
- 13:29Speaker 1: That would be the worst possible scenario for me. It
- 13:32Speaker 1: would hurt, It would hurt, It would hurt a few ways.
- 13:34Speaker 5: But the thing is, and you talk about Drew, It's like,
- 13:37Speaker 5: at least I always knew deep down that that title
- 13:39Speaker 5: didn't mean as much to him at ours did I
- 13:41Speaker 5: know he feels that deep down?
- 13:43Speaker 2: I know that we all know that.
- 13:44Speaker 5: Deep down he knows that, And I'd feel the same
- 13:47Speaker 5: about Giannest. From a practical standpoint, though it would hurt,
- 13:51Speaker 5: But from a practical standpoint, you're right.
- 13:53Speaker 2: There probably is no other situation in what you're gonna.
- 13:55Speaker 5: Get an established NBA starback's to Jaylen Brown's level. That's
- 13:58Speaker 5: the only really spot. I mean, we're talking about Miami.
- 14:02Speaker 5: I mean Tyler Heroes, not Jalen Brown. He's a really
- 14:04Speaker 5: good player. We like Tyler, but he's not Jalen Brown.
- 14:07Speaker 5: Anywhere else you're trading him. I might be for picks,
- 14:09Speaker 5: or it might be for guys that are young talent,
- 14:11Speaker 5: you know, somewhere else but maybe not as established. But
- 14:14Speaker 5: you would assume if it is Boston, that it's gonna
- 14:17Speaker 5: be Jalen plus, right, I mean you would hope at
- 14:19Speaker 5: least I don't know.
- 14:21Speaker 2: How much plus.
- 14:22Speaker 1: No, I don't think it would be much plus potentially
- 14:25Speaker 1: a contract to match it up. I think it might
- 14:27Speaker 1: be a pick. I also I also don't think that.
- 14:30Speaker 1: I also don't think you're getting Jalen Brown in the conversation. Well,
- 14:33Speaker 1: that's like that's a problem for me, Like, I don't
- 14:34Speaker 1: know what Jalen Brown does for you. Your your team right
- 14:38Speaker 1: now is still Then you would get a a lesser
- 14:41Speaker 1: version of a superstar to lead a team to do
- 14:44Speaker 1: what maybe get to the eighth, but you'd.
- 14:47Speaker 2: Get it back.
- 14:48Speaker 1: You're what you're saying, he wouldn't be the guy. No,
- 14:50Speaker 1: the part would be that he would be rerouted. Brown
- 14:52Speaker 1: would be out, He would go to Atlanta. This is
- 14:54Speaker 1: the overall package and the mathematics and everything like that.
- 14:59Speaker 1: I think that the frame work of the deal would
- 15:00Speaker 1: possibly be either Jalen Johnson or Zachary Reshachet, who is
- 15:05Speaker 1: the number one, two or one overall pick just a
- 15:07Speaker 1: couple of years ago, and then your twenty twenty seven
- 15:10Speaker 1: pick a couple more picks, contract a lineup, maybe Dyson
- 15:13Speaker 1: Daniels who was first team All NBA a couple of
- 15:15Speaker 1: years would be in the conversation. But you'd get young
- 15:18Speaker 1: players back and draft assets from Atlanta. He'd get shipped
- 15:21Speaker 1: to Atlanta and then they can compete and do whatever
- 15:24Speaker 1: he wants because he wants to be the lead man
- 15:26Speaker 1: of a show.
- 15:26Speaker 2: But I don't believe you would get Brown. You would
- 15:29Speaker 2: want Brown, you.
- 15:30Speaker 1: Would want him in Milwaukee because you'd want somebody to
- 15:33Speaker 1: hag your hat on.
- 15:33Speaker 2: Is what it sounds like that i'm here. I think so.
- 15:36Speaker 2: I think he's the best player you could possibly get
- 15:38Speaker 2: into attorneys in known quantity. You're right, you're not really
- 15:40Speaker 2: solving your problem of building for the future in that regard,
- 15:43Speaker 2: or at least getting assets too bill up for the future.
- 15:44Speaker 2: But you'd be an instant contender at least to be
- 15:47Speaker 2: a playoff team with Jalen Brown. I think so.
- 15:51Speaker 5: But the way you're putting it in and rerouting him
- 15:54Speaker 5: to get more stuff I could see as well.
- 15:55Speaker 2: I think both are legitimate strategies.
- 15:59Speaker 5: But then you'd have to stop like seeing Giannis and Green,
- 16:01Speaker 5: and they'd be really good, There's no question about it.
- 16:03Speaker 5: And how many times we had to see Jason Tatum
- 16:05Speaker 5: like send fake text to Kobe saying, got my shack now,
- 16:08Speaker 5: you know, like and stuff like that.
- 16:10Speaker 2: You know, you know how Tatum does it. That's how
- 16:11Speaker 2: they would. He'd be looking at it.
- 16:13Speaker 1: See.
- 16:13Speaker 5: That's why I still I'm not one hundred percent sure
- 16:16Speaker 5: it'd beat Tatum's team, just like the way like Shaq
- 16:19Speaker 5: walked into Miami and said, this is Dwayne Wade's team,
- 16:21Speaker 5: or Reggie White walked in and said, this is Brett
- 16:22Speaker 5: Favre's team, like trying to be deferential, which is good,
- 16:26Speaker 5: but he might still be the centerpiece of what makes
- 16:28Speaker 5: them great.
- 16:28Speaker 1: I guess, just like, oh, he'll be a massive part
- 16:32Speaker 1: of it. But then Shaq played on what seven different
- 16:35Speaker 1: teams after that, Yeah, it was still Kobe was still
- 16:37Speaker 1: the main stag. It's like before and after Tatum would
- 16:41Speaker 1: Reggie White he also went and played for another team
- 16:43Speaker 1: after that and very very quickly, so like it's this
- 16:47Speaker 1: would he would be the hired gun to take them
- 16:50Speaker 1: over the top. And I think that one would be
- 16:52Speaker 1: awful to watch for Bucks fans to see him in Green.
- 16:55Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe I'm wrong. Seven seven seven nine
- 16:57Speaker 1: four one night seven three. I do think the Brown
- 17:00Speaker 1: deal would be fun, it would be interesting. You'd at
- 17:02Speaker 1: least get somebody that would be worth going to the
- 17:04Speaker 1: games for. And I think that's a that's a tough
- 17:06Speaker 1: spot as to where we're gonna see and we're gonna
- 17:09Speaker 1: hear from Taylor Jenkins, the new Bucks head coach coming
- 17:11Speaker 1: up here later on today, two o'clock. He's gonna get introduced,
- 17:14Speaker 1: don't I don't know he has a better idea as
- 17:16Speaker 1: to what kind of team he's coaching, what team he's
- 17:18Speaker 1: planning to coach, who he is planning to coach.
- 17:21Speaker 2: Maybe it's completely a different story.
- 17:23Speaker 1: But if we ended up with if the Bucks would
- 17:26Speaker 1: end up with Jalen Johnson, say, I think it would
- 17:30Speaker 1: be Johnson or Rishochet.
- 17:31Speaker 2: Obviously you'd want Jalen Johnson more.
- 17:33Speaker 1: Yeah. Really, if you'd end up with Jalen Johnson, your
- 17:35Speaker 1: twenty twenty seven pickback and one other contract to match it,
- 17:40Speaker 1: I think that's a hell of a package at the moment,
- 17:43Speaker 1: with a one year left on the contract, superstar for
- 17:47Speaker 1: somebody who, also, as much as we love him, has
- 17:51Speaker 1: also been rather dinged up in over the last years,
- 17:54Speaker 1: and that is going to be a tough thing to tag.
- 17:57Speaker 1: When even the biggest Giannis fans could have easily forecasted
- 18:01Speaker 1: a shorter prime and a quicker potential fall because of
- 18:06Speaker 1: the style of play.
- 18:07Speaker 5: In the way that he plays well. Yeah, and that's
- 18:09Speaker 5: always been the concern with the on us. Also the
- 18:12Speaker 5: realization maybe from some that you're not gonna get the
- 18:14Speaker 5: like the Rudy Gobert five picks package, that you're definitely
- 18:17Speaker 5: not getting those days. There seems to be those ugos
- 18:20Speaker 5: are off the lot. Now those days are gone, unfortunately.
- 18:22Speaker 1: And again even like Desmond Bane they went they traded
- 18:25Speaker 1: four first round picks.
- 18:26Speaker 2: The other thing was, but if you're gonna.
- 18:27Speaker 1: End up sorry, and I don't mean to cut you
- 18:29Speaker 1: off good, but also if you end up with your
- 18:31Speaker 1: pickback in twenty seven and that forecast to be a
- 18:34Speaker 1: top five, top six pick, that's better than the twentieth
- 18:37Speaker 1: pick four times, right.
- 18:38Speaker 5: It is, I mean, because it should be a good draft,
- 18:40Speaker 5: and that that's always been the theory about the NBA
- 18:42Speaker 5: draft is like top five picks are much more important
- 18:44Speaker 5: than like two twenties. And I think in this case
- 18:46Speaker 5: it's probably true because you want to have those top
- 18:48Speaker 5: five picks in the NBA draft if you can now
- 18:50Speaker 5: obviously the lottery is gonna change and things like that,
- 18:52Speaker 5: but we'll see that there's no chance. I mean, I
- 18:54Speaker 5: don't think the Celtics should do it, but there's no
- 18:56Speaker 5: chance to be Tatum instead of Brown, right, Billy? Is
- 18:59Speaker 5: that we're both agreeing, Like, is there a zero percent
- 19:01Speaker 5: chance chance would they ever trade Jatum instead of Brown?
- 19:06Speaker 2: I can't say.
- 19:06Speaker 1: I guess I can't say it would be a zero percent. Yeah,
- 19:09Speaker 1: I wouldn't do it personally. I think one is definitely
- 19:12Speaker 1: better than the other. I would keep Tatum too. I
- 19:15Speaker 1: also think the tough part is and this is where
- 19:17Speaker 1: it comes to, like it's loud in Boston.
- 19:21Speaker 2: That is a loud fan base.
- 19:22Speaker 1: It's one of the most most outspoken ones that there
- 19:26Speaker 1: is in sport. And my man literally just won the
- 19:29Speaker 1: title within a thousand days and then went on his
- 19:34Speaker 1: podcast with two buddies. I don't know who those dudes
- 19:37Speaker 1: were standing behind him in that weird live stream, but
- 19:41Speaker 1: just goes off and says like, yeah, we blew a
- 19:42Speaker 1: three to one lead my best friend and think my
- 19:47Speaker 1: guy blew out his achilles, had the worst year of
- 19:51Speaker 1: his personal and professional life. You know who had the
- 19:54Speaker 1: most fun? Me most fun I've ever had. I've enjoyed
- 19:58Speaker 1: the hell out of myself. I don't know how well
- 20:00Speaker 1: that goes over.
- 20:01Speaker 6: I don't know, I don't I don't know how well
- 20:03Speaker 6: that goes over in a fan base that is as
- 20:05Speaker 6: outspoken and loud in Boston, Like, I think there's I
- 20:08Speaker 6: think there's gonna be a little bit of a drum
- 20:10Speaker 6: beat to everybody saying, hey, we knew at some point
- 20:13Speaker 6: these two were gonna have to get separated. And now
- 20:16Speaker 6: somebody needs to go to a different school and somebody
- 20:19Speaker 6: needs to go somebody needs to move out now, and
- 20:21Speaker 6: it appears like that time might be good.
- 20:25Speaker 5: Yeah, the two, the couple, there's a couple more things
- 20:27Speaker 5: that would be entertaining to watch with Boston and be honest,
- 20:30Speaker 5: and Boston he finally get a positive media narrative, first
- 20:33Speaker 5: of all, I don't think that's ever happened, pretty honest, nationally,
- 20:36Speaker 5: Like he'll get like he's a Celtic now, so they'll
- 20:38Speaker 5: say all these great things about them all the time.
- 20:40Speaker 2: And that'll be nice to hear.
- 20:41Speaker 5: And the MVP again, Yeah, just like maybe getting getting
- 20:44Speaker 5: the running maybe his like like triple double average will
- 20:47Speaker 5: be good enough for them.
- 20:49Speaker 2: So at least get considered. And I think like Simmons
- 20:52Speaker 2: has been kind.
- 20:52Speaker 5: Of soft launching the holy like the honest honest is
- 20:56Speaker 5: not good or not being a honest heter now, so
- 20:58Speaker 5: he have to totally changes like whole like emotion on Giannis,
- 21:01Speaker 5: because it seems like he's been doing that, at least
- 21:03Speaker 5: to me, for.
- 21:04Speaker 2: The last few months. Like, well, you know, I think
- 21:07Speaker 2: he said something.
- 21:08Speaker 5: I didn't listen to it, but I read that he
- 21:10Speaker 5: said he asked the question if you honest was ever
- 21:13Speaker 5: considered the best player in the NBA on one of
- 21:14Speaker 5: his recent podcasts, and it just seems like he'd been
- 21:17Speaker 5: going to that whole angle for a while. But obviously
- 21:20Speaker 5: that would do a one eighty if he's a Celtic,
- 21:22Speaker 5: so that'd be kind of funny to watch.
- 21:24Speaker 2: Well, I'm not yet. I'm not a Bill Simmons hater.
- 21:26Speaker 2: I'm an observer. I do think that was a fair
- 21:29Speaker 2: question when he asked it. I mean, they.
- 21:32Speaker 1: Unanimously people were still saying Kevin Durant was the best
- 21:34Speaker 1: player in the world, even though they lost in the
- 21:36Speaker 1: second round that year.
- 21:38Speaker 2: He won't the only guy saying that at that time.
- 21:40Speaker 5: Maybe, but I remember him saying like after the championship,
- 21:43Speaker 5: be Honest, has the belt now or something like that.
- 21:45Speaker 2: So, I don't know.
- 21:46Speaker 5: I think it's I think it's a little while to
- 21:48Speaker 5: hear say that personally, that's just me. I think there
- 21:50Speaker 5: was clearly a time when Jannis was not to mention
- 21:52Speaker 5: the MVPs and then he won the feat.
- 21:55Speaker 1: This is exactly what I'm already a five twenty one
- 21:58Speaker 1: now getting the man it loves and defends anything media
- 22:02Speaker 1: to start hating on one of the most the biggest podcasts,
- 22:05Speaker 1: the biggest media guys. Bill.
- 22:06Speaker 2: I like Bill Simmons, I always have. But I'm seeing.
- 22:09Speaker 1: I'm seeing the swell of emotions rolling around in there,
- 22:13Speaker 1: and I can feel there's a title way of going
- 22:15Speaker 1: back and forth. There's some weird waters rolling facts trying
- 22:19Speaker 1: to figure out where he's saying.
- 22:20Speaker 5: Is it just facts that he's had about me, Honest
- 22:23Speaker 5: and be funny to see him kind of flail and
- 22:24Speaker 5: reverse course a little bit and have to turn that
- 22:26Speaker 5: ship around. But overall, I don't want that to be
- 22:29Speaker 5: the reason I'm you know, I don't want this to happen.
- 22:32Speaker 2: I don't want you, Honest to be a Celtic. I
- 22:33Speaker 2: wanted to be a Buck.
- 22:34Speaker 5: Actually, it's in reality, I still wanted to be a Buck.
- 22:37Speaker 5: I mean, maybe that's an unpopular decision these days, and
- 22:40Speaker 5: to be honest with you, I think you might be
- 22:41Speaker 5: in the minority. No, I think I definitely am these days.
- 22:44Speaker 5: To be honest with you, I think I am. I
- 22:46Speaker 5: think most people are emotionally processed and ready for him
- 22:49Speaker 5: to move on, and they're just waiting for that and
- 22:52Speaker 5: to the point where they're sort of like, get on
- 22:54Speaker 5: with it, this is better for our future type thing,
- 22:57Speaker 5: and I'm not.
- 22:58Speaker 2: I'm I'm I'm just not going to be there. I
- 23:00Speaker 2: don't know what else to tell now. You ever could
- 23:02Speaker 2: get there, I mean I will, I will handle.
- 23:05Speaker 5: It if and when it happens, But I'm not going
- 23:08Speaker 5: to ever be like, great, you're honest, it's not a Buck.
- 23:10Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say that. I can't see myself saying
- 23:12Speaker 2: that now.
- 23:13Speaker 5: Whether or not it's logically better for the franchise, that's
- 23:18Speaker 5: something different, you know, That's something you have to come
- 23:20Speaker 5: to terms with, and that's something to discuss. Still, be
- 23:22Speaker 5: still believe if he's healthy and motivated and everything's right,
- 23:26Speaker 5: he's still you know, one of the best in the league.
- 23:27Speaker 2: And I want on my team.
- 23:28Speaker 1: Then well, it's also hard to look at what we're
- 23:30Speaker 1: watching the Eastern Conference and say that at his best,
- 23:33Speaker 1: he still wouldn't be the best player in the Eave.
- 23:34Speaker 5: It's hard to because I agree, because if he's if
- 23:37Speaker 5: he's healthy, wouldn't he contend.
- 23:39Speaker 2: This team to to somewhere it is.
- 23:42Speaker 1: You watched it, not this team, but you watched it.
- 23:46Speaker 1: You watched how bad they were. How can they actually
- 23:50Speaker 1: get better without giving? They always say, you got to
- 23:53Speaker 1: give something to give I know, and.
- 23:54Speaker 5: That's our problem. We don't have to give something to
- 23:56Speaker 5: get something. And you got the something of the off season.
- 24:00Speaker 1: And we'll see how much they want to potentially get
- 24:02Speaker 1: back eight seven, seven, seven, nine four one nine seventy three,
- 24:04Speaker 1: or if they could, And if indeed the big Fella
- 24:08Speaker 1: is playing in a different color next year, how painful
- 24:11Speaker 1: would it be to see in green eight seven seven, seven,
- 24:13Speaker 1: nine four seven wrong green?
- 24:15Speaker 2: Man? That would be the wrong the wrong green.
- 24:18Speaker 1: That would be the wrong green, that bright green, that
- 24:21Speaker 1: that ridiculous shamrock green green.
- 24:24Speaker 2: Yeah, Kelly green is what they call it. I don't
- 24:26Speaker 2: know what they call it.
- 24:26Speaker 1: I think I've seen Kelly Green for about eighteen Different
- 24:29Speaker 1: Things eight seven seven, seven nine four one nine seven three,
- 24:32Speaker 1: Waking Up with Us on YouTube and x not on
- 24:34Speaker 1: Facebook today. Sorry, thanks a lot, sucker. We'll get that, right,
- 24:38Speaker 1: I hope.
- 24:39Speaker 5: And by the way, thanks for those who reached out
- 24:41Speaker 5: with the podcast. We're trying the effort to get it fixed.
- 24:43Speaker 5: Yeahs an issue at the website, right, I.
- 24:45Speaker 1: Was just gonna say it. Uh, it will get rectified. However,
- 24:48Speaker 1: the one podcast that's okay is the YouTube video. We're
- 24:51Speaker 1: here is back that bad Boy all the way up.
- 24:54Speaker 1: You get to enjoy the entire show. You skipped through
- 24:56Speaker 1: the commercials and you enjoy us there and hit that
- 24:58Speaker 1: subscribe button.
- 24:59Speaker 2: It helps us out more than you could think.
- 25:00Speaker 1: Eight seven seven, seven nine to four one nine seven
- 25:02Speaker 1: three drop a comment there. Dave Gasper, producing the show,
- 25:05Speaker 1: Arman Sarian is figuring out how that would feel to
- 25:09Speaker 1: see the Big Fellow and green.
- 25:10Speaker 2: How do you think it would feel?
- 25:11Speaker 1: Our friend Troy on the YouTube comments already said personally,
- 25:14Speaker 1: I'm over it.
- 25:14Speaker 2: We'll see.
- 25:15Speaker 1: We're not over a game last night because we didn't
- 25:18Speaker 1: get one. However, a good conversation to get into. It's
- 25:20Speaker 1: a hot take. Com Day Brewers, Cardinals, later on this afternoon,
- 25:23Speaker 1: it's the Huddle here on Fox Sports Radio wiscons is
- 25:25Speaker 1: exactly the worst one. But it's sure as heck is
- 25:28Speaker 1: up there, because in the midst of a couple of
- 25:31Speaker 1: nice NBA games, not great at NBA games yesterday, James
- 25:34Speaker 1: Harden looking like the oldest guy I've ever seen playing
- 25:36Speaker 1: basketball potentially, and unable to dribble most of the night
- 25:41Speaker 1: there against the Pistons.
- 25:42Speaker 2: What was difficult to watch, man.
- 25:43Speaker 1: I was just wishing that we'd be able to watch
- 25:45Speaker 1: some Brewers and Cardinals and I wouldn't have to see
- 25:47Speaker 1: the Cubs walk off once again. It just feels, really
- 25:51Speaker 1: you really understand just the void that no game has.
- 25:55Speaker 1: Once all of a sudden, it's slapping you in the
- 25:56Speaker 1: face when you were anticipating one at six forty five
- 25:59Speaker 1: pitching off.
- 26:00Speaker 5: It's a bummer because you have then you have a
- 26:03Speaker 5: day off, a day game, which is okay, but it's just,
- 26:06Speaker 5: you know, no night baseball, and then another day off.
- 26:08Speaker 5: So it's like, man, we're not gonna We're gonna be
- 26:10Speaker 5: starved here for a while, trying to get some trying
- 26:12Speaker 5: to get some ball to watch. Now. The thing is,
- 26:15Speaker 5: maybe it'll help the Brewers to get a little bit
- 26:17Speaker 5: of a rest. Maybe if some guys are made up,
- 26:18Speaker 5: but you're gonna have to make up for it at
- 26:20Speaker 5: some point. So it made me also think like, should
- 26:23Speaker 5: we bring back the schedule double headers? Does anyone remember
- 26:25Speaker 5: you guys are probably too younger brother from now.
- 26:28Speaker 1: I was gonna say, you're talking to two guys that
- 26:29Speaker 1: are far too you be alive for the scheduled double
- 26:33Speaker 1: headers outside of the COVID year, And if it means
- 26:35Speaker 1: that they're doing seven inning double headers, no, I.
- 26:37Speaker 2: Don't want that. I don't want to.
- 26:39Speaker 1: If you would schedule the regular double headers, I think
- 26:42Speaker 1: I could do it.
- 26:43Speaker 2: However, I was looking at it. I don't know that.
- 26:46Speaker 1: It could come at And Dave, I'm not positive as
- 26:50Speaker 1: to the full schedule breakdown that they sent out last
- 26:52Speaker 1: September when the schedule actually went live for twenty twenty
- 26:55Speaker 1: six Yeah, I believe Crayby if I'm wrong. Where they
- 27:01Speaker 1: slot the game in it is in the run of
- 27:03Speaker 1: one of the longest stretches of games that the Brewers play.
- 27:06Speaker 1: They play from sept June twenty sixth all the way
- 27:10Speaker 1: to the All Star Break. It's like what eighteen games
- 27:13Speaker 1: and eighteen days and now you slam another one, and
- 27:15Speaker 1: they're kind of similar to when that Cubs one got
- 27:17Speaker 1: rescheduled last year.
- 27:19Speaker 2: Yeah, very similar.
- 27:20Speaker 1: It's now eighteen games and seventeen days there to wrap
- 27:25Speaker 1: it up.
- 27:25Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, So we're gonna be there. Yeah, we're gonna
- 27:28Speaker 2: be in that stretch.
- 27:28Speaker 5: We're gonna be able to complain about playing so many
- 27:30Speaker 5: games and play here and here. Man, we've had to
- 27:32Speaker 5: play this many games in this many in this stretch, though,
- 27:35Speaker 5: it becomes one.
- 27:36Speaker 1: Of the biggest stretches of action that you're gonna have
- 27:39Speaker 1: in the year. Yeah, And it already was going to be,
- 27:42Speaker 1: because you're gonna get three against Chicago, four against Cincinnati,
- 27:45Speaker 1: four against Saint Louis, and three against Pittsburgh, all teams
- 27:49Speaker 1: that right now you're chasing. Yeah, and I get it
- 27:51Speaker 1: that it's in the early part of May, but all
- 27:53Speaker 1: of those teams seem to be rather significant this year.
- 27:57Speaker 1: And if everybody in the division is gonna have a
- 27:59Speaker 1: winning record the majority of the first half, you're gonna
- 28:02Speaker 1: have to beat the teams that you're going up against,
- 28:04Speaker 1: and to add in another game into a time where
- 28:07Speaker 1: your bullpen is obviously already gonna get stretched in. You
- 28:09Speaker 1: get the bad news about on hell Zerpa yesterday that
- 28:11Speaker 1: he's officially gonna go down with the Tommy John surgery.
- 28:14Speaker 1: It just not exactly the best time for the Brewers
- 28:19Speaker 1: to end up getting a new doubleheader right there on
- 28:21Speaker 1: a Tuesday in July.
- 28:22Speaker 5: No, it's not great, But the thing is, and look
- 28:25Speaker 5: at the positive and I always do. Maybe that'll be
- 28:27Speaker 5: the stretch of baseball that we're getting hot, Like, who knows,
- 28:30Speaker 5: maybe that'll be the best stretch of baseball. We're hitting well,
- 28:33Speaker 5: where we're playing the best, where we're in good shape.
- 28:35Speaker 5: So maybe that'll be the right time to catch all
- 28:37Speaker 5: these teams. I guess I'm just trying to be hopeful.
- 28:39Speaker 5: But yeah, I don't think that's what you eat. That's
- 28:45Speaker 5: a good way to look at it. Maybe, you know,
- 28:46Speaker 5: and maybe Quinn pre will be right by then, you know.
- 28:49Speaker 5: So I'm hoping.
- 28:52Speaker 2: I like that it could.
- 28:56Speaker 5: Happen like JP and Angels in the outfield, like you
- 28:59Speaker 5: could happen well, because last year you could have made
- 29:02Speaker 5: the argument that the Brewers were again just kind of
- 29:05Speaker 5: getting by during that time when they ended up having
- 29:08Speaker 5: the doubleheader or the game pushed out of Chicago.
- 29:11Speaker 1: Right right, And our friend Mike was like, I know it.
- 29:17Speaker 1: They wanted to play baseball. Oh, yes, they were ready
- 29:19Speaker 1: to play two today and they did and now today
- 29:22Speaker 1: they probably would have been ready to play too. However,
- 29:24Speaker 1: Saint Louis is like, uh no, we got to fly
- 29:27Speaker 1: out to San Diego. Uh and then go play the
- 29:30Speaker 1: Padres for four and be out in Sacramento. We prefer
- 29:34Speaker 1: to not play a doubleheader here, and they probably have
- 29:38Speaker 1: a little bit more say in the in the scheduling
- 29:42Speaker 1: of the second game. So you just it doesn't always
- 29:45Speaker 1: work out exactly how you would like. Uh. But for
- 29:48Speaker 1: a team that right now is still getting itself out
- 29:51Speaker 1: of this injury luck, it might not be the worst
- 29:53Speaker 1: time to take a couple of days off. Just doesn't
- 29:56Speaker 1: add into a spot where you would have liked to add.
- 29:59Speaker 2: In another game.
- 30:00Speaker 5: Yeah, that would have been, but uh, I don't think
- 30:02Speaker 5: this is like that situation you know, with at Regularly
- 30:05Speaker 5: a few years ago where we were.
- 30:06Speaker 2: Upset and the Cubs did a shady like game call.
- 30:09Speaker 5: Everyone understood the situation and yeah, I don't think you
- 30:11Speaker 5: could have played to today. So I guess it's just
- 30:13Speaker 5: the way it's gonna be. And even if they brought
- 30:16Speaker 5: back scheduled double headers, they'd be day nights anyway and
- 30:19Speaker 5: sell two tickets, and I just, let's be honest, I
- 30:21Speaker 5: want to for one, Like I missed the Twine Eye
- 30:23Speaker 5: double headers because I got two for one and I.
- 30:25Speaker 2: Got the value with the games I used to go
- 30:26Speaker 2: to those.
- 30:27Speaker 5: So that's really the main reason I wanted to bring
- 30:30Speaker 5: them back, because it'd be fun to play twice in
- 30:32Speaker 5: a day, and I like double headers. But I used
- 30:33Speaker 5: to love the Twin Eye double headers. They really played
- 30:35Speaker 5: back to back and you could get two games in
- 30:37Speaker 5: the price of one.
- 30:38Speaker 1: Those are the good old days, all right, you got
- 30:42Speaker 1: you got that feel better, feels.
- 30:44Speaker 2: Great, man. I would get the hot dog costs then.
- 30:47Speaker 5: I don't know, but they didn't have the Junior hot
- 30:49Speaker 5: dog deal they got going on, or the or the
- 30:50Speaker 5: dollar hot Dog Day. I'm not really sure actually with
- 30:53Speaker 5: what it costs. We brought in our food to County Stadium,
- 30:56Speaker 5: you know what I mean. No, we used to get
- 30:57Speaker 5: some hot dogs. I think they were definitely cheaper than
- 31:00Speaker 5: well definite eight seven, seven, seventy nine to four, one
- 31:04Speaker 5: nine seven to three. Uh talking text line hitting us
- 31:06Speaker 5: up here and with our friend Marcus in Iowa. I'm
- 31:09Speaker 5: with Armon Janis today, Janis tomorrow, Yannis forever.
- 31:13Speaker 1: Also, Yani is too frugal. Any stayed with worst taxes
- 31:16Speaker 1: might be out of the question. The best move money
- 31:20Speaker 1: move would be endure the costs of moving and uprooting
- 31:22Speaker 1: your family.
- 31:23Speaker 2: No, it's stay in Milwaukee. You get the most for
- 31:25Speaker 2: your money. Boom.
- 31:26Speaker 1: That is definitely a possibility. Now I would counter with
- 31:29Speaker 1: your possibility of what you could do in Miami. Anywhere
- 31:33Speaker 1: in the place with no state income Texas, Texas, Texas,
- 31:36Speaker 1: San Antonio, Houston, those both would be interesting ones Arizona.
- 31:40Speaker 2: That's it.
- 31:41Speaker 1: That's one that obviously people started putting him out there
- 31:43Speaker 1: in wish casting for.
- 31:44Speaker 5: Well, our prop I mean our property tax right, isn't
- 31:47Speaker 5: that our property text right? Isn't that great? I don't
- 31:49Speaker 5: put our income tax right. I don't think it's great either.
- 31:52Speaker 5: There aren't that many not to get political, but I
- 31:54Speaker 5: don't know. Plus Gannas doesn't have a total saying it. Well,
- 31:57Speaker 5: he what have a saying where he signs.
- 31:58Speaker 2: But he's gonna have a significant saying this like trade.
- 32:01Speaker 1: I don't know, Well, it's gonna be a trade like
- 32:03Speaker 1: that that that would be the deal. He's got one
- 32:05Speaker 1: year left and then he would be able to opt out,
- 32:08Speaker 1: or he'd be able to sign the two five year
- 32:11Speaker 1: deal for over two hundred and seventy million dollars with
- 32:13Speaker 1: Milwaukee on October first. If he's traded, he can sign
- 32:17Speaker 1: it in six months. So he's not going to you're
- 32:20Speaker 1: not going to command and get a the same kind
- 32:23Speaker 1: of trade package if you are gonna do what listen,
- 32:27Speaker 1: not completely unprecedented. KWHI Leonard sher didn't want to go
- 32:30Speaker 1: to Toronto right now worked out for the Raptors. I
- 32:34Speaker 1: think if anybody knows that they're gonna get a situation
- 32:36Speaker 1: like Toronto, the they trade whatever package they would have
- 32:38Speaker 1: to be able to get that situation like they got
- 32:41Speaker 1: with Kawhi and they got their title in nineteen twenty.
- 32:43Speaker 1: But it's or eighteen nineteen. But it's far from a guarantee.
- 32:49Speaker 1: I don't think that you can. You're already going to
- 32:54Speaker 1: be trading him at what seventy five cents on the dollar.
- 32:58Speaker 2: Yeah, it's gonna be something like that base you're not
- 33:00Speaker 2: getting one if.
- 33:01Speaker 1: You're not gonna get the commitment from him that he
- 33:03Speaker 1: would sign long term you're gonna be trading him at
- 33:06Speaker 1: forty cents on a dollar, Like, I don't know that
- 33:09Speaker 1: it's the time.
- 33:09Speaker 2: It's not the time to do what Portland did.
- 33:12Speaker 1: And Joe Cronin just said, sorry, Dame, I know you
- 33:15Speaker 1: don't really want to go to Milwaukee. You want to
- 33:16Speaker 1: go to Miami. You have a four year contract left
- 33:19Speaker 1: and just signed it. We're gonna ship you wherever it
- 33:21Speaker 1: is best for us. I don't know that you can
- 33:23Speaker 1: necessarily do that.
- 33:23Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't think you're doing what you're getting what
- 33:25Speaker 5: jeff Jeffrey from Milwaukee wants here in the text line,
- 33:28Speaker 5: if Jannis has to go to the Celtics, it better
- 33:30Speaker 5: be the best option for the Bucks, like three or
- 33:31Speaker 5: four first round picks and a couple of rotation pieces
- 33:33Speaker 5: that are important. I'd rather not Giannis goes to the Celtics,
- 33:36Speaker 5: but if it's our best option, so being who knows
- 33:38Speaker 5: how long his body holds up, well best option. Yeah,
- 33:40Speaker 5: but I don't think you're getting the four first round
- 33:42Speaker 5: picks and things you might not.
- 33:43Speaker 1: But again, you're gonna get a you're gonna get a
- 33:45Speaker 1: few first you're gonna get a couple first round picks.
- 33:47Speaker 1: That one again, if you if Brown, then would go
- 33:50Speaker 1: somewhere else, right Like, I would say Atlanta makes again
- 33:53Speaker 1: in the most sense because they have the Bucks twenty
- 33:55Speaker 1: twenty seven first round pick, which you could think is
- 33:58Speaker 1: maybe now the second most valuable piece in that package,
- 34:04Speaker 1: right Like, even though you'd get the first overall pick
- 34:06Speaker 1: from a couple of years ago, reche Chase like a
- 34:07Speaker 1: ten point a game player right now, he's potentially gonna
- 34:10Speaker 1: be better, you sure hope, So he would probably be
- 34:12Speaker 1: a piece of it. Or it would be Jalen Johnson
- 34:16Speaker 1: who was just into the NBA Al Star Game. Does
- 34:18Speaker 1: he forecast to be the number one option on a
- 34:20Speaker 1: championship team?
- 34:21Speaker 2: Maybe not, but he might be. He might be kind
- 34:24Speaker 2: of on that trajectory.
- 34:26Speaker 1: Lot to be on the trajectory of a guy you
- 34:29Speaker 1: can absolutely win with if you can add in something else,
- 34:32Speaker 1: and he'd be marketable guy in Wisconsin. Like it doesn't
- 34:35Speaker 1: have to be a Wisconsin guy, but I do think
- 34:38Speaker 1: it might help business in a time that would be
- 34:40Speaker 1: a tough spot to be. But I think you'd get
- 34:41Speaker 1: a couple. I don't know you get multiple pieces, but
- 34:44Speaker 1: you get a few. I said you'd get two or
- 34:45Speaker 1: three players and two or three picks, and for a
- 34:48Speaker 1: guy going into the last year of his deal, he
- 34:51Speaker 1: could be a lot worse as to where you would go.
- 34:53Speaker 1: Red Hot, Tim knot, I'm at the point where Giannis
- 34:55Speaker 1: for Jalen Johnson straight up would be a win, younger
- 34:58Speaker 1: and huge potential bring the.
- 35:00Speaker 2: Young man home.
- 35:01Speaker 1: I again think that that would be from the.
- 35:05Speaker 2: Pr perspective, a massive win.
- 35:08Speaker 1: Home down guys basketball wise, I also think it would
- 35:10Speaker 1: be a very very good one. Like you could do
- 35:12Speaker 1: a lot worse than him being the centerpiece of the deal.
- 35:15Speaker 1: Janny and Appleton, I'm so happy to see the Celtics
- 35:18Speaker 1: not make it through of the first round, I guess,
- 35:20Speaker 1: I guess. My take is that if Jannis ends up
- 35:22Speaker 1: in Boston that would.
- 35:24Speaker 2: Be a nightmare.
- 35:25Speaker 1: Almost anywhere else would be preferable, except maybe the Pacers.
- 35:29Speaker 2: Like you're right, Arman, I still want Giannis to be
- 35:31Speaker 2: a Buck.
- 35:32Speaker 5: Janny and Apple, Yeah, I think that's probably the opinion
- 35:34Speaker 5: a lot of Bucks fans share that not really would
- 35:37Speaker 5: not be a fan to see him in Boston.
- 35:39Speaker 2: Janny says, it's the nightmare.
- 35:41Speaker 1: So it is fun to see that many folks after
- 35:46Speaker 1: just two or three years of playoff run ends have
- 35:50Speaker 1: the Indiana Pacers as.
- 35:51Speaker 2: The number one most hated it.
- 35:54Speaker 5: It was really like I kind of related to the
- 35:57Speaker 5: Seahawks in the mid two thousands, where it felt like
- 35:59Speaker 5: they were getting just is so and antagonistic with us
- 36:04Speaker 5: for a while that it was burning so hot, Like
- 36:07Speaker 5: we might not be saying this about the Pacers in
- 36:09Speaker 5: five years, might not be saying it in ten years,
- 36:12Speaker 5: might even be saying in two years. But it feels
- 36:14Speaker 5: like right now that's the one team because of like
- 36:16Speaker 5: the Tyres and his dad and all that stuff, and
- 36:19Speaker 5: man and the.
- 36:20Speaker 2: Fact that I think getting Miles turning you in the
- 36:22Speaker 2: first round five.
- 36:23Speaker 5: And obviously losing, but then like getting Miles Turner but
- 36:26Speaker 5: then him not being very good unfortunately and him not
- 36:29Speaker 5: becoming what we wanted to be also kind of hurts
- 36:31Speaker 5: a little bit. So I wonder how we'll feel about that,
- 36:34Speaker 5: and like, yeah, except five or ten years, it might
- 36:36Speaker 5: not be the same, But right now it feels like
- 36:37Speaker 5: that's burning hot. It is fun to see that it
- 36:39Speaker 5: didn't take long, did it, No, not at all.
- 36:41Speaker 1: And also you know you can use some buddy buddy NBA.
- 36:45Speaker 1: I think you can use some good real rifle exception
- 36:47Speaker 1: seven seven nine, four seven three, Well, who's hot Who's not?
- 36:51Speaker 1: Talk about the games last night as well. Sadly no
- 36:53Speaker 1: Brewers came to discuss, but one guy who has been
- 36:56Speaker 1: in the not category significantly. We tapped in on a
- 36:59Speaker 1: little bit of the sho shortstop conversation for your Milwaukee
- 37:01Speaker 1: Brewers yesterday and just how long is the leash gonna
- 37:04Speaker 1: be for Joey Ortiz? What would be the other potential options.
- 37:07Speaker 1: We also, on the other side, have to talk about
- 37:09Speaker 1: a celebration that the Milwaukee Brewers are going to be
- 37:12Speaker 1: having coming up this weekend, and I did try to
- 37:14Speaker 1: go get a list as we always do, coming up
- 37:16Speaker 1: for halftime in about forty five minutes from right now,
- 37:18Speaker 1: obviously get you a Hero of the day. Buck's gonna
- 37:21Speaker 1: be introducing their new head coach, Taylor Jenkins later on
- 37:25Speaker 1: here today two o'clock to the media. Media alert that
- 37:28Speaker 1: came out from the Milwaukee Brewers just some hours ago
- 37:32Speaker 1: on Monday night was the fact that officially coming up
- 37:35Speaker 1: on Friday night as they welcome in the New York
- 37:39Speaker 1: Yankees to town for the first of a three game
- 37:42Speaker 1: set that wraps over the Mother's Day weekend, the Brewers
- 37:45Speaker 1: honoring and officially inducting Fece Sabbathia and Dave Parker into
- 37:49Speaker 1: the Milwaukee Brewers Wall of Honor. Now, I did try
- 37:52Speaker 1: to walk around by the Wall of Honor yesterday.
- 37:55Speaker 2: See if I guess sneak peek. No, can't do. They
- 37:57Speaker 2: locked that bad way up. They tried. I like that,
- 38:00Speaker 2: you want to see.
- 38:01Speaker 1: I wanted to see if I'd be able to get
- 38:03Speaker 1: a sneak peek. Not gonna be able to go to
- 38:05Speaker 1: the game on Friday, so I'd like to be able
- 38:06Speaker 1: to see the celebration for CCI. That would one of
- 38:10Speaker 1: the cooler ones to be able to have, because it's
- 38:13Speaker 1: they write in here, one of the most impactful trades
- 38:15Speaker 1: in franchise history. Obviously difficult to say it's not it's
- 38:20Speaker 1: the most impactful because it wasn't three players that directly
- 38:24Speaker 1: let helped lead you to a world serious appearance. Yeah,
- 38:29Speaker 1: but from the shock value, the excitement, from the long
- 38:34Speaker 1: lasting memory of that two months, I don't know somebody
- 38:38Speaker 1: has in the Wisconsin sports landscape made a larger two
- 38:43Speaker 1: month impression that CC Sabathia did there in twenty oh eight,
- 38:47Speaker 1: no question.
- 38:47Speaker 5: I mean, just when you just think about the fact that,
- 38:50Speaker 5: first of all, the value of the trade, right, I mean,
- 38:53Speaker 5: no one gets the juice you know, out of the
- 38:55Speaker 5: orange more than that that trade right there. I mean,
- 38:58Speaker 5: the Brewers got more out of that trade in two
- 39:00Speaker 5: months and any then you can imagine anyone getting he
- 39:03Speaker 5: GC was incredible down the stretch. He was incredible in
- 39:06Speaker 5: every start. They got so much value out of that,
- 39:08Speaker 5: even if it was it was only two months. It
- 39:10Speaker 5: turned out they what they gave up wasn't as great
- 39:13Speaker 5: as they thought. They did give a little bit, they think,
- 39:15Speaker 5: not as great as they thought in terms of value,
- 39:17Speaker 5: and the cultural impact it had on the Brewers and
- 39:20Speaker 5: Brewers fans is beyond measure, I think to finally get
- 39:24Speaker 5: help them get over the hump, to for Brewers fans
- 39:27Speaker 5: to start believing this could be an era of winning.
- 39:29Speaker 5: It really a lot of it started right there, obviously
- 39:32Speaker 5: with that group that came up, but Thec's acquisition brought
- 39:35Speaker 5: them over the top. And the fact that everything was
- 39:37Speaker 5: done in such a positive manner. There was never anything
- 39:40Speaker 5: but good feelings from CC Milwaukee and the fan base,
- 39:43Speaker 5: and it's always continued that way when he's returned. Can't
- 39:47Speaker 5: you can't really imagine a trade that's been so impactful
- 39:50Speaker 5: in a small crucible than.
- 39:52Speaker 2: That one was right there.
- 39:53Speaker 5: And that was basically when you talk about deadline trades
- 39:56Speaker 5: and deadline rentals, that was the ultimate X book dream
- 40:00Speaker 5: of how it's supposed to work. It's supposed to get
- 40:02Speaker 5: the best career stretch from that player, and the Brewers did.
- 40:05Speaker 2: I mean, I can't.
- 40:06Speaker 5: I can't imagine that he's been any better in his
- 40:08Speaker 5: whole career than he was, at least in that two
- 40:10Speaker 5: and a half month period, than he was as a
- 40:12Speaker 5: Milwaukee Brewer.
- 40:13Speaker 2: Did it on short rest the majority of the majority of.
- 40:16Speaker 5: The time he pitched on three days rest for a
- 40:18Speaker 5: cup like a month, I mean, in a contract year.
- 40:21Speaker 2: Unfathomable. It was.
- 40:23Speaker 5: It was like you just don't see that much. You
- 40:25Speaker 5: won't see anymore that often. Well, you definitely won't see
- 40:28Speaker 5: the workload ever again. Right and the the the like
- 40:32Speaker 5: my man finished and got a first place cy Young
- 40:35Speaker 5: vote in the National League and was here for two
- 40:38Speaker 5: and a half months like that, that speaks to at least.
- 40:41Speaker 2: A little bit of what it was.
- 40:43Speaker 1: But in a year where they they had three guys
- 40:45Speaker 1: throw over two hundred and twenty innings, it was gonna
- 40:48Speaker 1: be a tough one for him to be able to
- 40:49Speaker 1: get in links come out like two hundred and some strikeouts,
- 40:51Speaker 1: but either here nor there, he hits seven complete game
- 40:55Speaker 1: crazy and then three shutouts in the time is crazy.
- 40:58Speaker 1: And and also so from you know, eleven and two
- 41:02Speaker 1: and what was it a buck sixty five era in
- 41:04Speaker 1: the time, it was one of the most impressive and
- 41:08Speaker 1: dominant stretches that you had that we had ever seen.
- 41:11Speaker 1: And he also it's rather unfair and cruel that maybe
- 41:15Speaker 1: his worst start for the Brewers was the last one.
- 41:18Speaker 2: Yeah, really playoffs start, I mean that ends.
- 41:21Speaker 1: Up being the last one, and it's not fair to him,
- 41:24Speaker 1: but in different players that get sent off and thought
- 41:28Speaker 1: very fondly of. I don't know anybody's more finally thought
- 41:30Speaker 1: of than CEC's a bathew for short.
- 41:32Speaker 5: No, And he had a good relationship with Milwaukee and
- 41:34Speaker 5: it's continued and and the fact that it's mutual has
- 41:37Speaker 5: been great. Four point nine to war and seventeen starts
- 41:40Speaker 5: is just incredible, you know, if you're into that.
- 41:42Speaker 2: Number two.
- 41:43Speaker 1: He's also doing some pretty cool stuff now working with
- 41:47Speaker 1: the Commissioner's Office, I believe, and just like trying to
- 41:50Speaker 1: let everybody know, Hey, baseball's kind of cool.
- 41:53Speaker 2: Baseball is cool.
- 41:54Speaker 1: Younger generation, Come watch a little bit, hang out there
- 41:57Speaker 1: doing some like some split screens, says Bathe.
- 42:00Speaker 2: It might be the baseball version of the Manning Brothers.
- 42:02Speaker 2: I love that. I think you could do a lot worse.
- 42:04Speaker 4: There.
- 42:04Speaker 1: Also Dave Parker going to be honored in and he
- 42:08Speaker 1: signed with the Brewers in nineteen eighty nine as a
- 42:09Speaker 1: free agent immediate impact lone All Star in ninety Silver
- 42:13Speaker 1: Slugger Award winner Designated Hitter of the Year and also
- 42:17Speaker 1: MVP honors for the team with twenty one homers in
- 42:20Speaker 1: a one hundred and fifty seven games
