  Speaker 1: As you can see, I'm smiling very big. Pat right
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: boom again. I've I've been waiting for me.
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: We've been talking about this Sianna's trade for the past
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: thirteen months and it is finally here and my suspicions
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: were correct. The Great Godfather has landed another whale. Gianna's
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Antetokombo is heading to the Miami Heat. The deal sends
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: away Tyler hero Killel Ware Himei, hawk Is, Junior, Casperis, Jackaconas,
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: three first round picks, including the number thirteen, pick twenty
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: thirty one, pick twenty thirty three, pick one pick swap,
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: and one second round or so an absolute hall in
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: exchange for the Greek Freak. A little behind the scenes
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: from Sean Shrania on his Twitter account, Keep President pat
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: Riley make Now makes his long anticipated new Bandmark acquisition,
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: with Giannis joining an elite Miami pickup such as Lebron,
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: James Shaquille, O'Neal, Chris bosh, Alonzo Morning, and Jimmy Butler.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: Over the past thirty years.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: Riley will pair the two time NBA MVP and twenty
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: twenty one Finals MVP with bam Adebayo to lead contention
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: in the Eastern Conference, and the Bucks have gotten a
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: haul to reset for their future. If you guys don't
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: know me, I am an obnoxious feed fan. I am
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: an obnoxious now. I haven't been able to be an
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: obnoxious that much over the past couple of years, because
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: you know, we've been struggling a little bit. But as
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: he always does, pat Riley comes through and we are
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: that baby now.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: As I did when the Big.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: Three came to Miami, which I had a front row
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: seat for for those glorious years, I'm going to tell
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: Heat fans and I'm.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: Going to tell the world this is still gonna be
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: a process. Not a long one.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Okay, not a long one, don't get too excited. Not
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: a long one. But they still have some pieces and
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: some moves to make. They are really strapped for cash
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: obviously after this move, and there's a lot of details
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: that are going to be discussed.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Over the next couple days. So just on a brand's
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: overall scale, this is huge for the league.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: It is huge for the Miami Heat it's actually huge
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: for the Bucks as well, and it's huge for Boston.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: So Boston was the other team that was in the
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: mix for this.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: Jayalen Brown was an offer, and they pretty aggressively pursued Jannis.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: They offered them a package that featured Jalen Brown and
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: two first round picks, and obviously, when you compare that
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: to the Miami Hall, it's you know, it's probably an
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: easy choice if you are the Bucks and you're looking
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: to press reset as opposed to putting yourself in a
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: position where you're putting a ton of pressure on Jalen Brown,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: who is an excellent player to come in and pick
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: up the reins from Yannis and the Bucks have been struggling,
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: which is the entire point of Jannis leaving the Bucks,
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: because I think that if the Bucks were still a
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: team that was consistently in contention then for a championship,
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Jannis wouldn't want to leave anyway. But he has expressed
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: that he wants to win another championship and he's not
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: been able to do that in Milwaukee. Now, I will
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: say Milwaukee has been a great organization over the years
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: for you, honest, They've made a lot of aggressive moves.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: They've put a lot of pieces around him.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: I think that a lot of the pieces that were
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: around Giannis their championship year really aided in building that team.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: So I have to give the Bucks credit. It's not
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: like this was a dysfunctional situation.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: I think it just ran its course and they had
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: kind of spent all they could spend to try and
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: give Yannis pieces around him to compete with, which is
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: why I think Giannis has kind of gone.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Under the radar.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: As far as the pressure that we normally put on
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: a championship two time MVP player to go out and
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: drag your team there, we just don't put that on
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: the honest and I think it's because you look at
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: everything that was around him and what's been going on
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: with him over the past couple of years, and you know,
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: unlike sports fans, we.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: Were pretty reasonable about it.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: So I don't know that there's going to be a
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: lot of a visceral reaction to this. This has been
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: an ongoing conversation obviously around Giannis.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Around the league for over a year, and I think
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: everyone's just kind of relieves that it's over. I'm going
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: to be.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Watching to see what the reactions are over the past
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: couple of days. I do not think it's going to
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: be the same type of a drama that it was
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: when Lebron came to Miami.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: But you know, it's also because the Bucks had like
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: they had a terrible year last year.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: They've won one playoff series in twenty twenty two since
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: they won the championship. They've crashed out of the playoffs
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: with three first round exits, and they missed the playoffs
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: entirely last year. And obviously, honest was hurt, and there
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: was a lot going on, and the Heat had been
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: struggling over the past couple of years, and I think
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: this is a perfect match. The bosson thing is interesting
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: because how is Jalen Brown going to feel about being
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: put into this package. I know all the pundits that
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: I've listened to just over the past couple.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: Hours, I've said that this is part of the business.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: But we'll see now there could still be some potential
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: moves made.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: This is just the first, the first trade.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: There could be some other swaps going around, some other
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: moves still to come over the next couple of days,
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: and as we see what happens with the drafts. But man,
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: I am so excited. I am so thrilled. I'm going
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: to be so obnoxious and I'm already so excited for
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: the next NBA season and the conversations that are going
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: to go on over this NBA off season are going
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: to be spetacular. So lots to still discuss, but obviously
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: I'm thrilled. Shout out to pat Riley, shout out to
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: the heat. Incredible, incredible job as he always does in
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: landing the star. There are still some pieces that need
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: to be put around him. I don't think this means
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: automatic championship this year. There are a lot of great teams.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: There are a lot of great teams in the West.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: There are a lot.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: Obviously, the Knicks just one and had an incredible season.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: So there are still some chess moves that have to
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: be made. But the first one and the most important
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: is that youngest is going to Miami.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: Yes, I'm so excited. So stars were out at the
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: World Cup.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: Argentina's Leonel Messi, Francis Killian and Bappe and Norway's early
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: In Holland each scored two as twice as their national
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: teams clinched a place in the round of thirty two.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: Messi the guad eighteen career World Cup goals most all time,
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: and Boppe, though is ten years younger, is only two
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: goals behind him with sixteen.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: She's an unbelievable player.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Holland made a little news with his response to a
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: question about Norway's final group stage game against France.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: He said, honestly, I don't care too much.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: Now we've managed to get through, which is incredible, so
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: I couldn't care too.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: Much about that game.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: Now they're probably going to win against us, They're probably
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: going to win the whole tournament.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: You know, listen if that's how you feel.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: Out of a strange statement, but it'll make France Norway
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: a little more spicy.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: So so far, the following teams have.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: Earned a spot in the next round Mexico, USA, Germany, Argentina,
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: France and Norway. Great group with great stars, legendary players,
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: and when you have stars like that scoring two goals
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: or more in time, that's going to raise level even higher.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: So very exciting, very exciting for the US men's national team,
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: very excited, citing for football fans. We're going to call
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: it football football fans who have been treated to just
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: incredible play and particularly from the absolute all time players
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: that are in this tournament.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: So I can't wait to see how the next round goes.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Speaking of all.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: Time greatness, LA Sparks star forward Neka Ahumakai reminded the
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: basketball world of her prowess. She knocked down game winner
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: as the WNBA celebrated their thirty year anniversary. The Sparks
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: played at Liberty in a rematch of the inaugural WNBA
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: game from ninety seven, with several former players in attendance,
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: and like I said, it was emotional to see all
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: these legends in the building. People didn't pay get their
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: didn't get paid their value, and they're still coming here
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: and supporting us. So I'm so grateful, love thing. This

  Speaker 2: going to their games. Atmosphere looks incredible. It's really like

  Speaker 2: a nice full circle moment, and sports sometimes gives us
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: these little romantic moments that make us fall in love

  Speaker 2: with everything all over again. And this is perfect because
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: she was drafted by the Sparks in twenty twelve, was
• 8:48

• 8:51
  Speaker 2: third title and she was with the Storm for a
