Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: This is Mosher, Lombardy and Kane on demand. Listen live
- 0:05Speaker 1: every weekday morning from seven to ten on Altitude Sports
- 0:08Speaker 1: Radio ninety two five and on the Altitude Sports Radio app.
- 0:18Speaker 2: All right, so the Ringer does their top one hundred
- 0:20Speaker 2: NBA players every year. Just to kick things off, Nikola
- 0:26Speaker 2: Jokic is ranked where third, third behind Shay and now Wimby,
- 0:34Speaker 2: which I mean, I guess whatever. Wemby made the NBA finals.
- 0:37Speaker 2: SHA's two time MVP. Jokicic might have had his best
- 0:40Speaker 2: statistical season ever, but fine, whatever, who cares he's third.
- 0:46Speaker 3: Where would you venture against? Jamal Murray is all.
- 0:49Speaker 4: Right, let's see top one hundred, he was thirteen all NBA.
- 0:53Speaker 4: I would say Jamal is eighteenth.
- 0:57Speaker 3: Sure, nineteenth, very close?
- 1:00Speaker 2: Yeah, top twenty player in the league according to the Ringer.
- 1:05Speaker 5: The next guy, let's lay this out there. If you've
- 1:09Speaker 5: got a top twenty player in the league, he is tradeable,
- 1:13Speaker 5: no matter what the contract.
- 1:16Speaker 2: You usually would say, if you got a top twenty
- 1:17Speaker 2: player in the league, you wouldn't trade that guy.
- 1:20Speaker 5: But weird circumstance here.
- 1:22Speaker 2: I agree, by the way, that's one spot ahead ahead
- 1:24Speaker 2: of Lebron James.
- 1:25Speaker 4: Now that's great, that's a very good point. I mean,
- 1:28Speaker 4: you got a top twenty player and a number three player.
- 1:31Speaker 4: You got two of the top twenty players in basketball
- 1:34Speaker 4: on your roster.
- 1:36Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:36Speaker 2: The guys ahead of him, Devin Booker, Scottie Barnes, kd
- 1:40Speaker 2: Tyrese Maxi, Jaylen Brown, Jason Tatum, Kat goes on and
- 1:44Speaker 2: on from there, not exactly guys that you would consider
- 1:48Speaker 2: trade bait for their respective teams. After that is Aaron Gordon,
- 1:54Speaker 2: who comes in at number forty two, So he is
- 1:57Speaker 2: one spot behind Cooper Flag, one spot of Ahea, head
- 2:00Speaker 2: of Joel Embiid.
- 2:03Speaker 3: So you have the third.
- 2:05Speaker 2: Nineteenth and forty second best player in the league. The
- 2:07Speaker 2: question I have for you is is there another player
- 2:09Speaker 2: on the list.
- 2:14Speaker 4: Top one hundred on the Denver Nuggets Top one, top
- 2:17Speaker 4: one hundred. No, what do you think, Mush, I'll say,
- 2:25Speaker 4: I think the next player would be.
- 2:32Speaker 2: Probably Cam Cam is ninetieth. Wow, ninetieth, So did barely
- 2:38Speaker 2: crack that. But if you want a comparison, who is
- 2:42Speaker 2: Cam packaged in a trade? J who is fifty seventh
- 2:46Speaker 2: that they have Now we talked to Jay Coin about
- 2:49Speaker 2: this last week. He said it's not that he disagreed
- 2:52Speaker 2: with the trade, but now, with the benefit of hindsight,
- 2:55Speaker 2: he probably wouldn't have done that trade.
- 2:57Speaker 3: I think that's totally reasonable to say.
- 3:00Speaker 4: Well, especially since now after making the trade and listen,
- 3:04Speaker 4: I still think the trade is a net positive. I do,
- 3:07Speaker 4: even though circumstances show you it didn't work. I think
- 3:11Speaker 4: it was a good trade. I think it was a
- 3:13Speaker 4: fair trade. I think the Nuggets got what they needed.
- 3:16Speaker 4: Hate giving up another first round pick. But oh well, however, however,
- 3:22Speaker 4: probably looking to trade Cam Johnson right now, So the
- 3:27Speaker 4: guy you got in that trade is probably gonna move on.
- 3:29Speaker 5: So you have you have five.
- 3:32Speaker 2: You've got four top one hundred players, but three in
- 3:36Speaker 2: the top forty two.
- 3:38Speaker 4: Where's Peyton Watson not on the list?
- 3:41Speaker 5: Are you sure didn't see him?
- 3:43Speaker 3: Most most the thing about Peyton Watson you're betting on
- 3:48Speaker 3: Oh wait.
- 3:48Speaker 5: Yes he is.
- 3:49Speaker 2: He's seventy six My bad, and it's one guy I missed.
- 3:51Speaker 2: He's seventy sixth.
- 3:53Speaker 4: He is. He is seventy sixth in the league. Yes,
- 3:56Speaker 4: he's ahead of Cam Johnson, head of Cam. Are you
- 3:59Speaker 4: surprised by that? I am?
- 4:00Speaker 5: I am, because his body of work is so incomplete.
- 4:04Speaker 4: Yeah, his body of work is not better than Cam Johnson. Yeah,
- 4:08Speaker 4: because it's just not enough playing.
- 4:09Speaker 5: But Vicot's the potential.
- 4:12Speaker 4: The potential is in toxic.
- 4:13Speaker 5: That's what's going to get him paid by somebody, by
- 4:16Speaker 5: somebody if the Nuthers don't pay him.
- 4:19Speaker 4: Man, Yeah, I don't agree with that, only because I
- 4:22Speaker 4: think you have to pay credence to the body of
- 4:24Speaker 4: work and how much you've played.
- 4:26Speaker 5: So the Nuggets have five in the top one hundred.
- 4:28Speaker 3: They have Peyton Watson one spot above nas Reed.
- 4:34Speaker 4: You tell me would you agree with that?
- 4:36Speaker 3: I think certainly could be, could be, But yeah, I
- 4:38Speaker 3: wouldn't do that.
- 4:39Speaker 2: Now, if you ask me who's the better basketball player
- 4:42Speaker 2: right now, it's not as Reid. But how many other
- 4:46Speaker 2: teams have five in the top one hundred? Obviously a bunch.
- 4:50Speaker 2: I mean I don't have that full list in front
- 4:52Speaker 2: of me, but there's a bunch of them. The funny
- 4:55Speaker 2: thing is, I don't know how many players that have
- 4:58Speaker 2: five in the top one hundred would consider trading four
- 5:03Speaker 2: of the five.
- 5:05Speaker 5: Look that I don't know.
- 5:07Speaker 4: This is what happens when things don't work out the
- 5:10Speaker 4: way you hope, and for four of the five, that's
- 5:14Speaker 4: so funny you say that, like the Nuggets potentially have four,
- 5:19Speaker 4: four guys they would trade, all for different reasons, all
- 5:22Speaker 4: for different reasons. Sure, so I'll tell you. Why would
- 5:26Speaker 4: you trade Cam Johnson to make room for Peyton Watson?
- 5:31Speaker 4: Why would you trade Christian Brown? Well, you don't believe
- 5:34Speaker 4: in the rest of the contract. Why would you trade Aaron.
- 5:37Speaker 3: Gordon so you don't trust them stay healthy?
- 5:40Speaker 4: Why would you trade Jamal Murray? Yeah, you have one
- 5:43Speaker 4: major shakeup person of trade value that you can get
- 5:46Speaker 4: something in return. There's four different players that you would
- 5:50Speaker 4: trade for four different reasons, all of them making an
- 5:54Speaker 4: excess of twenty million dollars. By the way, the money
- 5:57Speaker 4: in the NBA is a joke. If you guys this
- 6:00Speaker 4: Walker Kessler, Oh sure you familiar with one Walker Kessler?
- 6:06Speaker 5: I am not. I know.
- 6:08Speaker 3: He's just a big boy.
- 6:10Speaker 5: I was going to say he's he's the guy that
- 6:12Speaker 5: the late great Doug Mole would call a stiff.
- 6:14Speaker 4: Right, Well, he's seven foot two, he blocks you.
- 6:16Speaker 5: He's a big old stiff.
- 6:18Speaker 3: He's mind his game though, Like I think he's fine.
- 6:21Speaker 4: He played in five games last season. Five Yeah, he
- 6:25Speaker 4: had season ending shoulder surgery. They just shut him down.
- 6:28Speaker 4: So five games. Do you know what the Utah Jazz
- 6:32Speaker 4: are offering Walker Kessler?
- 6:33Speaker 5: Yeah? I saw it was like one hundred and forty
- 6:35Speaker 5: million dollars.
- 6:36Speaker 4: Right, one hundred and forty million dollars over five years. Guys, listen,
- 6:44Speaker 4: this is getting stupid.
- 6:47Speaker 3: So like twenty five a year. That really doesn't sound
- 6:51Speaker 3: that crazy.
- 6:54Speaker 4: This is getting stupid.
- 6:56Speaker 2: I mean that's gonna be you know what your yokichens
- 7:04Speaker 2: and guys like that. I mean I don't think that
- 7:06Speaker 2: sounds I know the overall dollar figure, yes, but in
- 7:09Speaker 2: the context of what other guys are getting paid, I don't.
- 7:11Speaker 5: Think it sounds.
- 7:12Speaker 4: I'm not comparing to other salaries. I'm just comparing to
- 7:15Speaker 4: just raw numbers.
- 7:17Speaker 5: Yeah, he just had his well he only played five games, Walker,
- 7:23Speaker 5: I look at it. Nine point three rebounds.
- 7:28Speaker 4: Look at it this way, Walker Kessler will make more
- 7:33Speaker 4: than Nathan McKinnon and cal mccarr combined combined.
- 7:40Speaker 5: Yeah, for a guy who played five rights right now, Yeah.
- 7:44Speaker 4: Think about that for a second. YEA, consume that information,
- 7:47Speaker 4: put that information in your brain and let me know
- 7:50Speaker 4: how you feel about it.
- 7:52Speaker 2: That's just crazy, man, I know that. Forget the actual
- 7:57Speaker 2: play he played five games. Do you think if the
- 8:01Speaker 2: Nuggets got a backup center would have to be a
- 8:03Speaker 2: guy that plays like a Walker Kestler, which is literally
- 8:06Speaker 2: just a big shot blocker, big dude, block shots, hit
- 8:10Speaker 2: a couple around the rim.
- 8:12Speaker 4: They had a big dude and he's not coming back.
- 8:17Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right, don't get a backup center. I've already
- 8:21Speaker 3: decided that no backup center for the Nuggets anymore.
- 8:24Speaker 4: Not. I don't know, man, I just can't fathom the
- 8:29Speaker 4: numbers in basketball and how crazy they've gotten. When you know,
- 8:34Speaker 4: I never thought i'd live to see the day where
- 8:37Speaker 4: I like Walker Castle, he's a good player.
- 8:41Speaker 2: They go back to Jamal Murray being the nineteenth best
- 8:44Speaker 2: player in the league, and when I first read that,
- 8:48Speaker 2: again this is all according to the ringer. When I
- 8:52Speaker 2: read he was nineteenth best in the league, my first
- 8:55Speaker 2: initial thought, just being honest, I said, that sounds high.
- 9:00Speaker 2: That was my first thought, and then I remembered he
- 9:03Speaker 2: was an All Star and he was a third team
- 9:06Speaker 2: All NBA guy. He had the best regular season of
- 9:09Speaker 2: his career. But as my perspective on Jamal shifted because
- 9:14Speaker 2: of what hasn't happened in the postseason. The last few
- 9:16Speaker 2: years that basically since they've won the title, Jamal has
- 9:20Speaker 2: not been Jamal in the postseason. Jamal was always a
- 9:25Speaker 2: player that people said he's overrated during the regular season
- 9:30Speaker 2: and underrated when the postseason started. And it feels like
- 9:34Speaker 2: the last three years that Moniker's flipped around.
- 9:37Speaker 4: Yeah, well, he ran into Jade McDaniels, who sumarily suffocated
- 9:42Speaker 4: him in the bit did a pretty good number on him.
- 9:45Speaker 2: We've kind of established though as NBA viewers, that a
- 9:52Speaker 2: good offensive player will beat a really good defensive player.
- 9:55Speaker 2: Though right, I mean, Jokic puts up forty points a
- 9:59Speaker 2: game on Wemby, that's the best defender in the league.
- 10:01Speaker 3: Why because Jokich is just too good on offense.
- 10:05Speaker 2: Now, Jade McDaniels is a suffocating defender, There's no question
- 10:11Speaker 2: about it. But you look at the last few runs
- 10:14Speaker 2: from Jamal and it's just to me, like he still
- 10:16Speaker 2: gets points, but it's his shooting percentages in the postseason
- 10:21Speaker 2: are what's been bothersome. That he can't seem to knock
- 10:24Speaker 2: down shots consistently like he used to. Like he's averaging
- 10:28Speaker 2: forty percent from the floor. Jamal is not a forty
- 10:31Speaker 2: percent from the floor guy. From three, it's like low thirties.
- 10:35Speaker 2: He's hovering around forty. You go back to the year
- 10:38Speaker 2: that won the title, like every single playoff series, so
- 10:42Speaker 2: his postseason numbers that year he shot forty percent from three,
- 10:46Speaker 2: He shot forty seven percent from the field, and look
- 10:50Speaker 2: at the numbers over the last few postseasons hasn't been
- 10:54Speaker 2: close to that. This year in the postseason he shot
- 10:57Speaker 2: thirty five percent from the floor. Last year it was
- 11:01Speaker 2: forty four percent, thirty five from three a little bit better,
- 11:05Speaker 2: and the year before that for thirty one percent from three.
- 11:10Speaker 2: That's the biggest difference to me is sure Jamal still
- 11:13Speaker 2: makes big shots, he still does some things. He has
- 11:15Speaker 2: good games in the postseason, but that efficiency thing doesn't listen.
- 11:20Speaker 4: His run in twenty twenty three is a big reason
- 11:23Speaker 4: why the Nuggets won an NBA champions totally because he
- 11:25Speaker 4: was right there with Nikola Jokic. Yeah, you could have
- 11:27Speaker 4: made the claim that year that Jamal could have easily
- 11:30Speaker 4: been the NBA Finals MVP as much.
- 11:33Speaker 3: As Nikola jokicch or the one was the VP of
- 11:35Speaker 3: that Lakers series.
- 11:36Speaker 4: I can tell you that right now.
- 11:36Speaker 3: Well, he didn't get it, but he should have been
- 11:38Speaker 3: but he was.
- 11:39Speaker 4: He was the best player in that Lakers series. He
- 11:41Speaker 4: was phenomenal. Guys, did you see, by the way, the
- 11:44Speaker 4: numbers of the NBA Finals television over twenty and a
- 11:47Speaker 4: half million viewers average, the highest ratings for an NBA
- 11:52Speaker 4: Finals since Jordan the bulls Utah nineteen ninety eight. It's
- 11:57Speaker 4: been that long.
- 12:00Speaker 2: I knew it was gonna be big because New York's involved,
- 12:02Speaker 2: and it's the Knicks, and it was a you know,
- 12:04Speaker 2: a lot of drama.
- 12:07Speaker 3: How do we do ratings now?
- 12:09Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 12:10Speaker 5: Do they do ratings with.
- 12:11Speaker 2: This plus streaming, plus online something plus?
- 12:14Speaker 4: I don't trust any of them because everybody's got a phone.
- 12:18Speaker 4: I watched half the games on my phone. Does that count? Yeah,
- 12:21Speaker 4: That's what I'm wanting. I have no idea does a
- 12:24Speaker 4: laptop count? How about the how about the television I
- 12:27Speaker 4: broke trying to put up? How about the fact that
- 12:29Speaker 4: I broke two TVs in one hour? True story? How
- 12:34Speaker 4: put a television up on my patio? It was up there,
- 12:37Speaker 4: but it wasn't up all the way. I didn't put
- 12:38Speaker 4: it on it some bracket. I was just resting it
- 12:41Speaker 4: along the wall. Something moved, the wind was blown, something moved,
- 12:46Speaker 4: TV fell on its face. Well, these TVs today, they're
- 12:49Speaker 4: so brittle and fragile. I picked it back up. The
- 12:53Speaker 4: corner of the television screen got hit. It caused all
- 12:56Speaker 4: those lines. It was done.
- 12:57Speaker 5: Brittle faced, pansy TVs.
- 13:00Speaker 4: So I take that one down and say, gosh, So
- 13:02Speaker 4: I take the TV from we have a basement TV
- 13:06Speaker 4: as never used. I'm gonna put this one outside. As
- 13:08Speaker 4: I'm going to put it up, it falls one corner,
- 13:11Speaker 4: break that TV two TV's one hour broken.
- 13:16Speaker 5: Take that L on the way out.
- 13:19Speaker 3: Had a real Bob the builder over there, don't we
- 13:22Speaker 3: I mean Brett.
- 13:23Speaker 5: I guess back in the seventies. These cabinet TV didn't
- 13:28Speaker 5: break like that in the seventies because because victim were
- 13:30Speaker 5: attached to wood that was.
- 13:32Speaker 4: RCA in that wood paneling.
- 13:34Speaker 5: You couldn't tip it over.
- 13:37Speaker 4: You could throw, Hey, Brett, you could drive a VW
- 13:39Speaker 4: bug into an old RCA or Zenith and it wouldn't break.
- 13:42Speaker 3: So my dad he had this uh this big.
- 13:44Speaker 2: It had to be probably I don't know, fifty inch TV,
- 13:46Speaker 2: which was you know, early two thousands late.
- 13:51Speaker 5: I had a Sony cabinet TV, you know with the
- 13:53Speaker 5: big back and everything. But it was a flat scol
- 13:55Speaker 5: Oh my, it was like the greatest thing ever.
- 13:57Speaker 2: So it was giant TV with the back like speakers
- 13:59Speaker 2: on the big box up and I remember we moved
- 14:04Speaker 2: and watching those poor movers try to get that TV
- 14:09Speaker 2: in a basement. It looked like they were carrying a
- 14:12Speaker 2: nuclear submarine downstairs.
- 14:14Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 14:15Speaker 3: I felt so bad for them.
- 14:17Speaker 4: These new TVs now that you can take you a
- 14:19Speaker 4: fifty inch carry it with one hand.
- 14:22Speaker 5: Oh for sure, it's so light.
- 14:24Speaker 4: They're so light. But because they're so light and fragile,
- 14:27Speaker 4: brittle haired television, they break upon I mean you could
- 14:33Speaker 4: just like squeeze the corner of it. It breaks. Make
- 14:37Speaker 4: better TVs.

- 16:31Speaker 3: It auto corrected the Boinks.
- 16:33Speaker 6: Summer solstice is Sunday, the twenty first.
- 16:36Speaker 4: Okay, that's a big day, Nelly. It's a big day
- 16:41Speaker 4: because every day after the solstice. We've talked about this,
- 16:44Speaker 4: every day gets shorter. We slowly die every day sun
- 16:51Speaker 4: shorter death.
- 16:53Speaker 5: When nothing we have dead with dust.
- 16:57Speaker 4: Enjoy the last few days of living.
- 17:00Speaker 2: I gotta tell you, I love the idea of you
- 17:04Speaker 2: leaving to take another job and then you just call
- 17:06Speaker 2: your old place like you want to do a deal.
- 17:09Speaker 2: Exactly what happened with Chris McFarlane. Like they probably did
- 17:12Speaker 2: the deal before even took the job officially. It's like,
- 17:14Speaker 2: so when you take this saying Ross Colton two thirds,
- 17:17Speaker 2: little goalie swap cool yea.
- 17:19Speaker 4: What if McFarland settles into his office first day on
- 17:23Speaker 4: the job. Next day, settles and gets in his chair,
- 17:25Speaker 4: picks up the phone, Joe in my new desk, want
- 17:31Speaker 4: to do a deal.
- 17:32Speaker 2: I actually love the idea of Chris McFarlane sitting down
- 17:35Speaker 2: for the first day in his new office. He just
- 17:37Speaker 2: put the family photo on his desk, picks up the phone,
- 17:41Speaker 2: calls Joos, what's it.
- 17:44Speaker 3: Gonna take from a car?
- 17:46Speaker 5: You're now in charge.
- 17:47Speaker 2: We were the ones again to tell but Ross Colton
- 17:49Speaker 2: traded to Nashville for two thirds and then a goalie
- 17:53Speaker 2: prospects swap.
- 17:54Speaker 5: Here's and here's where some people are coming from today,
- 17:58Speaker 5: the nine nine nine, And this is McFarland values Colton.
- 18:03Speaker 5: Bennar never played him consistently, always all over the lineup.
- 18:07Speaker 5: Colton was good when he played in a good play
- 18:09Speaker 5: good playoff type of player. Bennar sucks with personnel, played
- 18:13Speaker 5: four game over wedge for a season.
- 18:16Speaker 4: How do you say, and then he played like right away?
- 18:21Speaker 5: And then.
- 18:23Speaker 4: How do you argue that somebody sucks with personnel when
- 18:26Speaker 4: that team franch sets franchise records, wins the Presidents and
- 18:33Speaker 4: looks absolutely unbeatable for the first two playoffs. How do
- 18:37Speaker 4: you how do you arrive like? How do you look
- 18:40Speaker 4: at that and say every move was the right move?
- 18:43Speaker 4: And then one one series was it wasn't. So your
- 18:46Speaker 4: conclusion now is he can't he can't coach, he can't
- 18:49Speaker 4: understand his personnel. How does that? How does that work?
- 18:52Speaker 5: I don't know. Vic Also, most can't be critical of
- 18:55Speaker 5: the Abs, and it's always unlucky bounces every year. Colton
- 18:58Speaker 5: was good in Tampa, good here when he got playing time,
- 19:01Speaker 5: same number nine oh nine to nine. I can be
- 19:04Speaker 5: critical of the Avalanche, absolutely, I can when it's war
- 19:09Speaker 5: didn't deserved. When you have two major top six players
- 19:17Speaker 5: who scored a combined three goals in the postseason, you
- 19:20Speaker 5: need more out of them, for sure. But a team
- 19:24Speaker 5: that again won the President's Trophy set a franchise record.
- 19:29Speaker 5: I don't know how to tell you how good this
- 19:31Speaker 5: team is because they didn't win. They didn't win the
- 19:34Speaker 5: Stanley Cup, they didn't get to the Stanley Cup. But
- 19:37Speaker 5: I don't know how else to tell you how good
- 19:38Speaker 5: this team is because it's that good. But it's very
- 19:42Speaker 5: good to Colton specifically. Look, I liked Ross Colton just fine.
- 19:46Speaker 5: I thought he played hard, all these different things. The
- 19:48Speaker 5: reality of the matter is he got to Colorado in
- 19:50Speaker 5: twenty twenty three. He set a career record with forty
- 19:54Speaker 5: points that season. Since then had some injuries he was
- 19:58Speaker 5: dealing with. He had twenty nine points in six one
- 20:00Speaker 5: games the following year. What sucks is not this past season,
- 20:03Speaker 5: but the year before. Remember when they had all those injuries. Yeah,
- 20:06Speaker 5: to begin the year, he started off great, and then
- 20:08Speaker 5: what happened he disappeared, Well, he broke he broke his foot.
- 20:11Speaker 2: Yeah, Well that's what I'm saying, Like he disappeared, broke
- 20:14Speaker 2: his foot gone, but his production dropped each subsequent year.
- 20:21Speaker 2: Here you need to make room for somebody you just traded.
- 20:24Speaker 2: So here's here's the situation. I think that Ross Colton.
- 20:27Speaker 4: Is a center.
- 20:29Speaker 5: Guess what.
- 20:30Speaker 3: Ain't no room for centers.
- 20:31Speaker 2: Here all right now, McKinnon, Nelson, Cadri Drury, that's you. Fore,
- 20:36Speaker 2: so he had to play him as a winger. Maybe
- 20:38Speaker 2: he's not as good as a winger. He gets to
- 20:40Speaker 2: go to Nashville. Maybe he's better as a center there.
- 20:42Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 20:42Speaker 5: He's a great dude. Wish him the best of luck.
- 20:45Speaker 2: The The main thing here is what this does. Now
- 20:49Speaker 2: he's in the final year of his contract. It frees
- 20:51Speaker 2: up another four million dollars for you, you know how
- 20:53Speaker 2: seven million dollars to work with.
- 20:55Speaker 3: You can sign a Kulac, you can sign a Drury.
- 20:58Speaker 2: You still have to make other moves to make more
- 21:00Speaker 2: room for the other stuff you want to do.
- 21:02Speaker 3: And I don't think that this is done like I don't.
- 21:07Speaker 2: My best guess is they aren't gonna mess with things
- 21:10Speaker 2: at the top. Obviously they aren't gonna do a Natus
- 21:13Speaker 2: McKennon mccarr Landy trade.
- 21:15Speaker 3: That's not happening now.
- 21:16Speaker 5: Could they make like.
- 21:17Speaker 2: The next tier down. Could they make a Brock maybe
- 21:20Speaker 2: a val something like that.
- 21:21Speaker 5: Maybe maybe they could.
- 21:24Speaker 2: But this is to open up cap space to operate
- 21:27Speaker 2: and bring some guys back who you like.
- 21:30Speaker 3: You know, I'm a huge fan of Jack Drury. I
- 21:33Speaker 3: think that.
- 21:36Speaker 2: Maybe some of the brightest spots that you had in
- 21:38Speaker 2: the postseason was your third and fourth line kicking ass
- 21:41Speaker 2: like that's what it was. I think that Brett Koolex,
- 21:44Speaker 2: since he came over, was exactly what you wanted to complement.
- 21:47Speaker 3: Your your blue line. Completely agree, So.
- 21:50Speaker 5: Make some room to sign these guys I'm seeing. I'm
- 21:52Speaker 5: seeing if if Riker and Johnny are on the road
- 21:55Speaker 5: right now, we'll see. I don't know how to tell
- 21:58Speaker 5: I can be critical, it can be you know, I
- 22:01Speaker 5: put my faith in the best players in the world.
- 22:03Speaker 5: When Nathan McKinnon looks me in the face and he says,
- 22:07Speaker 5: you know what, the year, the two years after we
- 22:09Speaker 5: won the Stanley Cup, we knew we weren't gonna win
- 22:10Speaker 5: it again. In twenty two, we knew we were gonna
- 22:13Speaker 5: win it. Twenty three, we knew we weren't gonna win it. Okay,
- 22:16Speaker 5: he says, last year, this is before this season. Last
- 22:19Speaker 5: year with Dallas. We thought we had the team. And
- 22:22Speaker 5: you know what, Dallas was very very good too. They
- 22:25Speaker 5: blew a two goal lead in game seven?
- 22:27Speaker 2: Thank you mean twenty three twenty four? They won in
- 22:28Speaker 2: twenty two? Sorry, just a correction, yeah, twenty three, twenty yeah.
- 22:32Speaker 3: Two, I'm just helping.
- 22:33Speaker 5: Twenty two to twenty three, twenty three, twenty four. They
- 22:35Speaker 5: weren't gonna win twenty four to twenty five. He thought
- 22:37Speaker 5: they could. They blew a They blew a lead in
- 22:41Speaker 5: game seven, a two goal lead in Dallas. Yeah, and
- 22:47Speaker 5: what's his face? Throws one, falls down, throws.
- 22:51Speaker 2: One in off a leg ranton in this year, looking
- 22:55Speaker 2: but that wasn't a lucky bounce's that was all skill.
- 22:58Speaker 5: Some people calm the moon. Yeah, but most and what
- 23:02Speaker 5: I'm getting at here is is that team could have definitely,
- 23:07Speaker 5: definitely won. Uh Nelly, would you call Johnny Lyles real quick? Please?
- 23:13Speaker 5: Just the last thought of this vic.
- 23:16Speaker 4: We already had him on the show. Yeah, I know,
- 23:23Speaker 4: what do you want?
- 23:24Speaker 5: The graph that he sent out with Carter Hart is
- 23:27Speaker 5: if you don't want to believe me, people, including the
- 23:29Speaker 5: nine oh nine to nine, would you believe john Maybe
- 23:31Speaker 5: woudn't believe Johnny.
- 23:34Speaker 4: Going to win.
- 23:35Speaker 5: It's just it's just ridiculous.
- 23:36Speaker 2: Just all of this can be true. Though all of
- 23:39Speaker 2: this can be true. Carter Hart played above the expectation level.
- 23:42Speaker 2: You got a couple of weird bounces, Brave McNabb chucks
- 23:45Speaker 2: a lob pass perfectly online from mark Stone, like all
- 23:48Speaker 2: that stuff can happen.
- 23:49Speaker 3: And also, and also.
- 23:50Speaker 2: Your power play wasn't great for really the last two
- 23:53Speaker 2: years entirely. You had your second line center wide open
- 23:58Speaker 2: in front of the net multiple time times, couldn't finish
- 24:02Speaker 2: like that stuff that you need to as you need
- 24:05Speaker 2: to capitalize a thousand. You weren't just some victim this
- 24:10Speaker 2: year of like hey, hot team bad luck.
- 24:12Speaker 5: It was a little bit of that, no, no doubt.
- 24:15Speaker 5: It was a little bit of everything. A huge weeks.
- 24:20Speaker 4: What's what it's been three weeks since the Avs got bounced. Yes,
- 24:26Speaker 4: and you guys are still talking about incidents and situations
- 24:29Speaker 4: and games. We've talked about it. It's over. They've moved on.
- 24:34Speaker 4: They're making I say this to say, this is where
- 24:39Speaker 4: you have to look at guys.
- 24:41Speaker 2: And I like brock Nelson, but he's been sort of
- 24:43Speaker 2: a no show in the playoffs for two straight years
- 24:45Speaker 2: and you can't have that as a second line center.
- 24:47Speaker 3: We talk about it all the time. The biggest thing
- 24:49Speaker 3: that you've been missing since you won the.
- 24:51Speaker 2: Cup, or one of the bigger things, I should say,
- 24:53Speaker 2: because guess what most did you get good goaltending this
- 24:55Speaker 2: year for the first time in a long time, Yeah,
- 24:57Speaker 2: you did.
- 24:58Speaker 5: I mean the guys won the combined.
- 25:01Speaker 2: I think what you're missing here is like, you need
- 25:05Speaker 2: somebody to back up your top line. And in the
- 25:10Speaker 2: middle of that Vegas series, it's like, well, let's move
- 25:13Speaker 2: Natures down to see if that provides a spark for
- 25:15Speaker 2: those guys. Let's see because what you had was your
- 25:19Speaker 2: depth was there. Your depth was exactly what you were
- 25:22Speaker 2: looking for. And that's what maybe the main reason for
- 25:25Speaker 2: positivity I had heading in this postseason was just that
- 25:28Speaker 2: it's you had third and fourth lines that would beat
- 25:32Speaker 2: the opposing third and fourth lines. You had that this year,
- 25:35Speaker 2: and I think you had a giant chasm right there
- 25:37Speaker 2: on that second line where there was no production from
- 25:40Speaker 2: really anybody.
- 25:41Speaker 5: And without fixing that, I.
- 25:43Speaker 2: Mean, if you're looking at one glaring hole on the team,
- 25:45Speaker 2: it's probably that right there.
- 25:48Speaker 5: You're back here real quick. I need to see something. Guys,
- 25:50Speaker 5: they're driving me crazy looking up Lucky.
- 25:58Speaker 4: You need more, you need frint elevator music, that puppa
- 26:02Speaker 4: up bus stuff. Let's switch it up. Find something else.
- 26:07Speaker 5: There were a number of people who weren't themselves. Would
- 26:09Speaker 5: you agree with that for whatever reason? Regular season selves?
- 26:13Speaker 2: Yes.
- 26:14Speaker 5: One of them was ar tory Lekkanen, who was dealing
- 26:17Speaker 5: with injury big time, and he just was not himself.
- 26:20Speaker 5: He wasn't the same Lucky kind of guy. But if
- 26:24Speaker 5: you look during the course of the Val is not himself.
- 26:28Speaker 5: Val was not himself. Well, obviously he ended up leaving.
- 26:30Speaker 5: I'm not going to say what the problem with Val was,
- 26:32Speaker 5: but it was significant body part.
- 26:35Speaker 4: He didn't play the last game, right, correct.
- 26:39Speaker 5: Well, I mean Lucky had a brand new career high
- 26:43Speaker 5: in goals.
- 26:45Speaker 4: So he was hurt, is what you're saying? He was hurt.
- 26:48Speaker 5: Yes, he got injured earlier on in the season.
- 26:50Speaker 4: Yeah, right, So how many how many of those guys
- 26:56Speaker 4: that didn't produce in the playoffs were hurt? Now, Lecky
- 27:03Speaker 4: was brock hurt that.
- 27:05Speaker 5: I don't know the vic there were there, It's not
- 27:10Speaker 5: I'm not at liberty to say so. I'll just say
- 27:12Speaker 5: I don't know, but a number of guys were deal, Yes,
- 27:17Speaker 5: we're dealing with stuff. Trouble I have with that, and
- 27:20Speaker 5: I know, I know it's not it sounds like an excuse,
- 27:22Speaker 5: but I'm just saying, I.
- 27:23Speaker 2: Mean, everybody's got guys who are playing through a bunch
- 27:26Speaker 2: of stuff.
- 27:26Speaker 3: Agreed, Yeah, agreed.
- 27:29Speaker 4: Can I ask you this to do?
- 27:30Speaker 5: But which which which which guys? At which times.
- 27:33Speaker 4: Did those injuries emerge from the Minnesota Series and the
- 27:37Speaker 4: l A Series.
- 27:38Speaker 5: Okay, I'll tell you this though, William Carlson is it
- 27:42Speaker 5: leaves the game Game five against Carolina, and the Golden
- 27:47Speaker 5: Knights absolutely shut down that one guy, one guy, everything
- 27:53Speaker 5: shut down everything.
- 27:56Speaker 2: So the first move that was made first Domino of
- 27:58Speaker 2: this offseason for the Avs ross Colton Delt to Nashville
- 28:02Speaker 2: in return for two third round picks, one this year
- 28:06Speaker 2: in the draft that's about ten days from now, and
- 28:09Speaker 2: the other.
- 28:10Speaker 5: Is next year's.
- 28:11Speaker 2: And I think that was was that the Avs' original
- 28:13Speaker 2: pick next year's or was it this year's pick?
- 28:17Speaker 3: I can't remember.
- 28:17Speaker 5: I can't remember either.
- 28:19Speaker 3: I got one of their original third rounders back in
- 28:21Speaker 3: the trade.
- 28:22Speaker 5: I think.
- 28:26Speaker 2: Yes, no, this year is Nashville's third rounder next year
- 28:31Speaker 2: is Colorado's third. So that is the first word of
- 28:34Speaker 2: Domino to fall there. I'm still curious, you know. I
- 28:37Speaker 2: was listening to Bill Simmons just quickly, and he was
- 28:40Speaker 2: talking about the one team I have no idea what
- 28:41Speaker 2: they're going to do this offseason is the Nuggets.
- 28:43Speaker 3: And God, ain't that the truth?
- 28:46Speaker 2: When you keep hearing all these things like, oh, Aaron
- 28:48Speaker 2: Gordon's being dangled out there, Cam Johnson is being dangled
- 28:51Speaker 2: out there. Hey, Jamal Murray's name is not protected in
- 28:54Speaker 2: these trade rumors and whatever it's You could be talking
- 28:58Speaker 2: about a seismic shift within the roster of the Nuggets
- 29:01Speaker 2: heading in this offseason two. And I don't know if
- 29:03Speaker 2: the absoul would be in that sort of category. I mean,
- 29:06Speaker 2: what would you call if they traded like a brock?
- 29:09Speaker 2: What would that be?
- 29:11Speaker 5: Not seismic? Pretty big though?
- 29:13Speaker 4: Pretty big?
- 29:13Speaker 6: Yeah?
- 29:14Speaker 3: Pretty big like MPG territory.
- 29:17Speaker 2: Yeah, so are around there, ye, key piece to the team,
- 29:20Speaker 2: but maybe not what you would consider like top tier
- 29:24Speaker 2: whatever building block three zero, three, five, four nine two five. Again,
- 29:31Speaker 2: got some audio from Sean Payton and Bo Nix that
- 29:34Speaker 2: I want.
- 29:34Speaker 5: To get to a little bit later.
- 29:35Speaker 2: But oh, by the way, next, Oh by the way,
- 29:37Speaker 2: stories around sports in the world we feel like you
- 29:40Speaker 2: should be aware of again.
- 29:41Speaker 3: World Cup continues today.
- 29:43Speaker 2: England will play their first game against Croatia at two o'clock.
- 29:46Speaker 2: But hat trick from the thirty eight year old Lionel
- 29:50Speaker 2: Messi in Argentina's first game. Look, I didn't think that
- 29:56Speaker 2: Messi couldn't play anymore.
- 29:58Speaker 5: Did I think that he.
- 29:59Speaker 2: Still had I don't know, hat tricks in his bag
- 30:03Speaker 2: for the World Cup?
- 30:04Speaker 3: No, but there you go.
- 30:06Speaker 2: That was a game, or that was the day yesterday
- 30:08Speaker 2: where they thought that every game would be a bloodbath.
- 30:10Speaker 3: It ended up being that way.
- 30:11Speaker 2: Now France was tied going into half before pulling away
- 30:16Speaker 2: three one with their win.
- 30:18Speaker 3: But a lot more action today in the World Cup.
- 30:21Speaker 2: As eleven o'clock, it is Portugal and Congo, England Croatia
- 30:31Speaker 2: at two, Ghana and Panama at five o'clock, and then
- 30:37Speaker 2: finally at eight is Uzbekistan and Colombia.
- 30:42Speaker 4: So you've heard about those water breaks, the hydration timeouts
- 30:46Speaker 4: that they're taking during the World Cup. Yeah, just to
- 30:49Speaker 4: make sure that the athletes are taken care of. And
- 30:51Speaker 4: you know, we see in the youth sports all the time,
- 30:53Speaker 4: and before people bark, oh they're necessary, Okay, fine, I'm
- 30:57Speaker 4: not arguing against whether they're necessary. Take all the damn
- 31:00Speaker 4: water breaks you want. I'm not arguing against water I'm
- 31:03Speaker 4: just telling you there's a little more rhyme and reason
- 31:06Speaker 4: to why they do this so far in this World Cup.
- 31:09Speaker 4: You know how much money Fox has made off water
- 31:11Speaker 4: break commercials two hundred and fifty million dollars water break
- 31:19Speaker 4: or money money purge. What do you think it is?
- 31:24Speaker 5: Good?
- 31:24Speaker 3: Lord, that's nuts.
- 31:30Speaker 2: Is that why they're doing it? Then they can we
- 31:34Speaker 2: care about the players when it's like here, they'll argue
- 31:37Speaker 2: for the athletes.
- 31:38Speaker 4: You know, we want to make sure they're there, they're
- 31:40Speaker 4: not exposed to the humidity of the United States and
- 31:44Speaker 4: oh my god, but whatever, I'm just telling you the
- 31:47Speaker 4: facts what they're making.
- 31:50Speaker 2: Speaking of international competition, I this makes me like irrationally
- 31:56Speaker 2: angry and I don't like it.
- 32:00Speaker 3: So Luca is Slovenian.
- 32:05Speaker 2: There's always something in the off season that has to
- 32:07Speaker 2: do with countries competing in some sort of basketball thing.
- 32:10Speaker 3: What is it this year?
- 32:11Speaker 5: Vic?
- 32:11Speaker 3: What is the joke? You're playing for Serbia and.
- 32:14Speaker 4: It's one of those Foba foeba something, Foba something.
- 32:20Speaker 2: Jill at Jackson Hayes for the help of Luca is
- 32:23Speaker 2: now a citizen of Slovenia and received his passport at
- 32:27Speaker 2: the Slovenian embassy.
- 32:29Speaker 4: Hold on, don't say that to me. Don't say that
- 32:31Speaker 4: to me. What that really ticks me off? Do you
- 32:35Speaker 4: know how long the process has been for me and
- 32:39Speaker 4: my brothers to get our Italian passports and our Italian
- 32:41Speaker 4: dual citizenship, even though our parents are from there, even
- 32:44Speaker 4: though I didn't speak a lick of English until I
- 32:46Speaker 4: was eight years old, even though my family still lives there.
- 32:48Speaker 4: Do you know how long it's taken the process? Do
- 32:51Speaker 4: you know how much money we spent? Do you understand
- 32:54Speaker 4: how rigorous that road has been to get a dual
- 32:56Speaker 4: citizenship in a passport? This guy walks up and gets one,
- 32:59Speaker 4: and what a couple.
- 33:01Speaker 2: So he's now going to compete on Team Slovenia with Luca.
- 33:05Speaker 4: Okay, whatever, you.
- 33:08Speaker 2: Can't do this man, like the whole point of competing
- 33:11Speaker 2: against countries, And yes, I'm saying this as as an
- 33:16Speaker 2: American whatever you want to call it, in this scenario,
- 33:21Speaker 2: I don't want America to be playing against Americans representing
- 33:25Speaker 2: another country. I don't That's not what international competition is about.
- 33:30Speaker 4: It's not it stupid.
- 33:30Speaker 2: If you don't have the dogs, then you don't have
- 33:33Speaker 2: the dogs and you get your butt kicked.
- 33:35Speaker 4: I lost respect for Luca for pulling that. Sorry, now
- 33:39Speaker 4: I'm Jackson, ase is not your personal alley Ooper.
- 33:42Speaker 2: I should say like, I don't know if Luca like
- 33:44Speaker 2: pulled these strings or whatever, but I know he's boys
- 33:47Speaker 2: with him, and so yeah, whatever.
- 33:49Speaker 4: I tell you what. Jackson Hayes is as Slovenian as
- 33:53Speaker 4: Brett Kane is Chinese.
- 33:55Speaker 3: Yeah, but imagine that. Imagine I played with uh, I
- 33:59Speaker 3: don't know, Yao Ming back in the day on.
- 34:01Speaker 2: The rockets and I was just some you know, eighth
- 34:04Speaker 2: guy off the bench, and I was just friends with Yao.
- 34:08Speaker 2: And he's like, well, you're not going to make the
- 34:09Speaker 2: American team. What if I get your little dual citizenship
- 34:12Speaker 2: in China and then we can go ahead and do
- 34:13Speaker 2: it that way?
- 34:14Speaker 4: So you know, I'm do you know how hard it
- 34:17Speaker 4: is to get dual citizenship. I just went through it.
- 34:20Speaker 4: That's ridiculous. They're making a mockery of that.
- 34:22Speaker 2: But vic this happens all the time in international competition
- 34:26Speaker 2: all the time.
- 34:27Speaker 4: Is that right?
- 34:29Speaker 5: So you agree? You agree with me?
- 34:30Speaker 4: It's stupid celebrity passports. That's what these have become, celebrity passports.
- 34:38Speaker 2: The Toronto Maple Leaves have made a higher for their
- 34:40Speaker 2: new head coach. It is Jim Hiller, fifty seven year old.
- 34:45Speaker 2: It's his second stint with the Leaves after working as
- 34:48Speaker 2: an assistant with the club from fifteen to nineteen. His
- 34:51Speaker 2: second NHL coaching job. He was in LA for three
- 34:54Speaker 2: straight seasons. I can't imagine that Toronto is super happy
- 34:58Speaker 2: about this. I'm sure they want some big splas actually hire.
- 35:01Speaker 2: This isn't gonna do it. But you know Toronto is
- 35:05Speaker 2: in a very weird place right now where their team captain.
- 35:08Speaker 2: You guys, remember remember when Austin Matthews took the nasty
- 35:12Speaker 2: knee on knee shot and none of his teammates came
- 35:15Speaker 2: to defend him.
- 35:17Speaker 3: They're in a bad way right now.
- 35:20Speaker 4: I got one for you by June seventeenth, that's the
- 35:24Speaker 4: date today. Go back to nineteen fifteen. Where were you
- 35:27Speaker 4: in nineteen fifteen?
- 35:28Speaker 3: Bright, I was watching Oscar Swan shoot.
- 35:30Speaker 4: I remember that guy, and I remember that season. I
- 35:33Speaker 4: remember everything about it. Well, in nineteen fifteen, you talk
- 35:37Speaker 4: about relief pitching in Major League Baseball, like, what is
- 35:40Speaker 4: a how much is a relief pitcher go? These days?
- 35:43Speaker 4: And an in or two before they get tired.
- 35:46Speaker 7: George zip Zabelle for the Chicago Cubs was called into
- 35:51Speaker 7: a game with two outs in the first inning. George
- 35:56Speaker 7: zip Zabelle zitched all the way into the nineteenth for
- 36:00Speaker 7: a four to three win, the longest relief effort in
- 36:04Speaker 7: major league history?
- 36:08Speaker 4: How long was it? Again? He showed up in the
- 36:11Speaker 4: first inning, two outs and went all the way to
- 36:14Speaker 4: nineteen innings to win the game.
- 36:18Speaker 2: That guy's that guy's arm would have been in relief,
- 36:22Speaker 2: a noodle in relief.
- 36:24Speaker 3: George zip zabel Well, I'll tell you what they weren't.
- 36:28Speaker 2: Well, they might have been using position players to pitch,
- 36:31Speaker 2: but those guys were dual. They were your old show
- 36:34Speaker 2: Haze back in the day. You're babe Ruth's, Uh, how's
- 36:37Speaker 2: this for a story? So, Nelly you sent me this, Actually,
- 36:41Speaker 2: Marty sent it to Nelly to pass on to.
- 36:43Speaker 6: Me Mark, because like Marty, Marty texted me and he said,
- 36:46Speaker 6: I would have sent this story to Brent. But we
- 36:49Speaker 6: all know how bad Brett is with reading this text messages,
- 36:51Speaker 6: so I don't think he'll get this, so he sent
- 36:53Speaker 6: it to the man who gets things done.
- 36:55Speaker 4: Thanks Marty, appreciate it, proud listener.
- 36:58Speaker 2: Mariner's minor leaguer gets big Lee call up despite hitting
- 37:01Speaker 2: one ninety at high A. Come on, man, here's the
- 37:05Speaker 2: reason why he got called to the majors because their
- 37:09Speaker 2: team is only thirty minutes from the stadium and the
- 37:11Speaker 2: Mariners needed somebody to play that day.
- 37:15Speaker 4: So why him, though? Why the one ninety hit?
- 37:18Speaker 3: I you know, that's a great question. I haven't read
- 37:20Speaker 3: this whole article.
- 37:21Speaker 4: I haven't had time to Let me ask you this,
- 37:23Speaker 4: Does battan average even mean anything anymore? Yes? What do
- 37:26Speaker 4: you mean? What do you mean? Yes? The batting averages
- 37:31Speaker 4: league are down how many points over the last ten
- 37:34Speaker 4: to twenty years? Doesn't hear anything anymore? They're down everything.
- 37:38Speaker 2: Hitting a buck ninety at high A isn't exactly MLB material, though,
- 37:44Speaker 2: except when you're thirty minutes from the stadium and you're
- 37:45Speaker 2: in a pinch.
- 37:47Speaker 3: Uh, now we go ahead. You got one.
- 37:49Speaker 6: Oh, by the way, I think all of these World
- 37:52Speaker 6: Cup fans from Europe coming to the South and enjoying
- 37:57Speaker 6: American cuisine has probably done more for diplomacy than any
- 38:02Speaker 6: president has in the past forty years. Really like, it
- 38:04Speaker 6: has been amazing seeing Europe fall in love with BUCkies.
- 38:07Speaker 6: And there's one Frenchman who posted his four review of
- 38:11Speaker 6: BUCkies on social media that has been going viral. And
- 38:15Speaker 6: it's a bit long, but you have to hear every
- 38:17Speaker 6: word of this. This is this is incredible.
- 38:19Speaker 8: I saw the end of the world in the US
- 38:21Speaker 8: and it's called BUCkies. They say it's a gas station,
- 38:23Speaker 8: but that's like a gas station has a sad sandwich
- 38:26Speaker 8: and a coffee machine that never works. This place has
- 38:28Speaker 8: one hundred and twenty pumps. One hundred and twenty Why
- 38:32Speaker 8: are you refueling the US Air Force? Are you preparing
- 38:34Speaker 8: for an Adian invasion? That's terrifying. And the mascot is
- 38:38Speaker 8: a beaver. In the Baseball Cup, I saw grand men
- 38:40Speaker 8: taking photos with a statue of rodent. In France, we
- 38:44Speaker 8: have revolutions in the US. You boil down to a
- 38:46Speaker 8: squirrel on steroids, and inside the aggression a man with
- 38:50Speaker 8: a knife screaming a fresh brisket on the board circum down.
- 38:53Speaker 8: I just want to sparkling water don't kid me, but
- 38:55Speaker 8: I have a problem. I wanted to hate it. I
- 38:58Speaker 8: wanted to be the superior of french Man snob. But
- 39:01Speaker 8: then I ate the beaver nuggets. I don't know what
- 39:03Speaker 8: he's in them. I think it's a sugar butter and
- 39:06Speaker 8: a pure metal fit. I mean, I ate one, and
- 39:08Speaker 8: I had the whole bag in the parking lot like
- 39:10Speaker 8: a white animal. And the toilets, I have to admit it,
- 39:13Speaker 8: but they are nicer than my apartment. You could eat
- 39:15Speaker 8: the brisket off the floor or in the bathroom. It's
- 39:17Speaker 8: cleaner than the hospital. So I failed. I came to
- 39:20Speaker 8: judge and I stayed for the snacks. God bless the Beaver, all.
- 39:24Speaker 2: Right, I gotta ask the exactly legitimately French or is
- 39:27Speaker 2: he cost playing as a French.
- 39:29Speaker 4: God bless the Beaver, because that was.
- 39:32Speaker 2: I mean, I've heard some French accents. That was an
- 39:35Speaker 2: intense French accent.
- 39:37Speaker 3: Yeah. Uh, one more for you.
- 39:39Speaker 2: Lebron James seems to be negotiating with the Lakers to
- 39:43Speaker 2: come back again. Legitimate question back, do you think Lebron
- 39:48Speaker 2: is going to stay in the league, because look, he
- 39:49Speaker 2: can still play at a very high level. Do you
- 39:54Speaker 2: think Lebron's trying to stay the league until Bryce gets here,
- 39:57Speaker 2: his other son.
- 39:58Speaker 4: I have no idea. No, he's staying in the leagu
- 40:00Speaker 4: He could still play. He's staying in the league because
- 40:03Speaker 4: when he's on the court, he's one of the best
- 40:04Speaker 4: players on the court. He's staying in the league because
- 40:07Speaker 4: he's a difference maker.
- 40:08Speaker 2: But will he be like, I'll sign this deal, but
- 40:12Speaker 2: next year when Bryce enters the draft, you're gonna give
- 40:15Speaker 2: him the browny treatment that both of them on the bench.
- 40:18Speaker 4: That's on the Lakers. If the Lakers are going to
- 40:20Speaker 4: bow down to that, then that's ridiculous. But hey, man,
- 40:25Speaker 4: I think it's fair to say Lebron James. You could
- 40:28Speaker 4: think whatever you want of him, and we all have
- 40:30Speaker 4: our thoughts. He could still play at a high level,
- 40:32Speaker 4: which is amazing. I don't know what he's on. Maybe
- 40:35Speaker 4: he goes to BUCkies. I don't know what. I have
- 40:39Speaker 4: no idea. By the way, I had to really like
- 40:45Speaker 4: it was hard to understand every word that FRENCHI guys,
- 40:49Speaker 4: I had to really I needed subtitles. But there's something
- 40:53Speaker 4: about it I really enjoyed. I really enjoyed that read.
- 40:58Speaker 4: I want him to do my next read. There's a
- 41:00Speaker 4: bunch of you sending my next commercial read.
- 41:04Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean your next Dan capitalist commercial. If you
- 41:07Speaker 6: want to be taken seriously.
- 41:09Speaker 4: I want him to do my next capitalist read.
