• 1:02
  Speaker 3: I should probably see who's coming in next hour. In
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: the hour after that, but we got right.
• 1:06
  Speaker 5: How was Sandford? Was he dead weight?
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: No?
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: No, he was good.
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: He was good. Like But see, here's the problem with Sandford.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: The dude like starts his day at three am.
• 1:14
  Speaker 5: This is like, this is he?
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: This is like the.
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: Waiting crazy yeah crazy yeah yeah head coach.
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: Ball coaches are not There's talk about a job I
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: would never want to do.
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: I think brothers got to get on a flight in
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: the next two hours to go to South Data.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: He's not flying to South Dakota. My man is driving
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: to South Dakota.
• 1:33
  Speaker 5: Vic.
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: You ever done that for like a kid's baseball tournament,
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: had to drive to the middle of nowhere.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: Bro.
• 1:38
  Speaker 5: I hate driving cross country. I mean, I just I
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: don't like doing it. I did it in college all
• 1:43
  Speaker 5: the time, and I told myself I wasn't gonna do
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: it again. I had to drive my daughter to college
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: and Lawrence and it was not fun. By the way,
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: are there two more people more different than Berdo and
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: Sandford in There's day structure?
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: Oh?
• 1:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah to that.
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: I'm a night person. Sandford gets up and starts going
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: hard early.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: I think Sanford's alarm clock has ever hit nine o'clock
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: in the morning.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: No, no, that man's never slept till nine.
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: No, no way, Raj is don the Chushkin for three
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: draft picks a salary dump.
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: It's a salary dump in in this way only. I
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: didn't think there was a chance they could bring back
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: Brent to Koulak, and now I think there's a real possibility.
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: So they have three spots to fill top six left wing,
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: left side D, second pair, left side D, third pair,
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: and I think Kulak and Burns are probably going to
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: be the guys that you'll see next, That's my guess,
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: just because they're cost controllable and now you have the
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: money to do it eleven million. I would be very,
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: very concerned if they utilized like the second round draft
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: pick that they have tomorrow night on an actual player.
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: I don't think they're gonna do the Nuggets thing where
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: they trade out of the first round then they use
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: the two selections. I firmly believe that Joe Sakik is
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: cooking something to get somebody else into the top six.
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: So utilize those picks, move them on to somebody else
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: and see if they can acquire another defenseman or or
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: another forward.
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: I believe it's gonna be a forward. Because I think
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: my feeling is that they like the decor that they
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: had last year.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: A top six guy or you're just going to add
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: to the bottom six. If a top six guy is
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: a big ticket item, man, that's a big like.
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: I mean that was six million.
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's you're gonna have to You're gonna have to
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: find another like type of bargain bin guy or a
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: player that isn't fitting properly with the current team. That's
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: just kind of my feel about it. It was it
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: was really clear that both VAL's camp and the Ads
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: were ready for a change. I can't believe he had
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: four years left.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: How long was this cow nine or something was when
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: when it went through? Like, Columbus is happy because he's
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: gonna be in Columbus for years now because he's locked down.
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: Natchushkin is signed through twenty thirty, the twenty thirty season.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: I believe it's go sign.
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I'm reading a lot about how the Avs
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: have given up on Val and this I said, there's
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: no giving up. The Avs stood by him when he
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: went through some turbulent times. That's not giving up. They
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: just decided to go a different direction here. They want
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: to facelift their team, and he happens to be the
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: contract they can move so good times. Val helped them
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: win a cup. He was instrumental in that ride. But
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: you're correct, they have to address other parts of the
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: team that they deem more important.
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you have to find a way to get younger.
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: You have to find a way to get more durable.
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: So while I think you look at Nachushkin's history here
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: in Colorado, you were so good as a two way forward.
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: I think he's one of the best neutral zone for
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: checking players in the entire National Hockey League. Those first
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: couple of years that you got him, he was a
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: diamond in the rough lake you go. We have to
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: remember vala Chushkin was a number ten overall pick by
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: the Dallas Stars that Alexandrovitchkin. Literally he came out and said,
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: that's the next great Russian hockey player. And then he
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: was almost out of the league. And then Joe Sakkik
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: found him and he came up a couple of years
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: in Denver where he started to find his footing. He
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: took him forever to score a goal, Like, went almost
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: a full calendar year without scoring a goal in the
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: National Hockey League and then he became the Valachushkin that
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: we knew. You don't go sixteen and four without him.
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: But he does deserve a lot of blame for what
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: happened in Seattle. He does deserve a lot of blame
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: for what happened the following season where he he cost
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: them a run at a Stanley Cup championship in twenty
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: twenty four. Like, you can't hide from that fact. He
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: was also a really good, really important player for this team.
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a that's a tough one to come to
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: terms with because you saw what he could do on
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: the ice when he was available on the ice. But
• 5:46
  Speaker 5: there's no denying that two straight, two straight playoff runs
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: where you could not count on him, and that impacts
• 5:54
  Speaker 5: your team so deeply. That impacts a lot of not
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: just the team, the player start to lose confidence in
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: his availability, you know, like, is he gonna be there?
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: That's all behind him now, Thankfully, that's all behind him,
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: we hope, thankfully, and another team had to understand that, right,
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: you can't trade Val unless the team that takes Val
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: understands it's behind him. So that's good news. It's great
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: news for him for Columbus. I think these are three
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: winners here. Val continues his career, Columbus gets a top
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: notch forward, and the Avs can do the little things
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: they need to do, they believe to become a better outfit,
• 6:32
  Speaker 5: a more well rounded team.
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: The do The Avs have caml Carr signed before the
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: season starts, right, like that's the number one goal. They'll
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: just sign kids like they're working on it right now.
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: This is the last offseason that you can extend for
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: eight years. So yeah, I do believe they get it done.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, give him an eight year I mean it's gonna
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: be a huge number. It's gonna be a huge no
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: matter of fact. I was trying to is it gonna
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: be a bigger number now because of what's happening with Robertson?
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: Because Robert It's look, the Robertson market does not affect kill, right,
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: But what happens if the number one?
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: Like he just said no to fifteen million a year.
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: Man, he said no to fifteen million in Seattle, in Seattle. Yes,
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: he's an American born hockey players. Got to cool it, man,
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: don't don't change my league this much.
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: But kind of cocky, bro.
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: They got gold around their Recordy're like, we just run
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: the league. Now we get to go wherever we want.
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: The Robertson market doesn't affect Kill, it doesn't. I think
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: Cale's it starts at fifteen.
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: So but so you're saying Carrel's deal doesn't affect that either,
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: because I was just thinking about when we're talking about
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: the top paid player in the league, is Kale going
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: to be the best? Is going to Kal gonna end
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: up being the highest paid player in the league? What
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: once the season rolls around.
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: There's a chance. I don't think it's a foregone conclusion,
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: but there's a chance.
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: But he should be right, Like, if I'm Kale's agent, I'm.
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: Like, yeah, but you have to understand too, the money
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: he agrees to, it's not out of this year's camp,
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: it's not out of this year's paid.
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: Correct, So all right?
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: Because he has one more yes, because the years after.
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: So whatever he does this year, it's great. You know
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: they'll have to make those decisions next year. But you
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: can make another hearty run at the cup, which is
• 8:09
  Speaker 5: why I think the draft this weekend is important. You're
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: exactly right, Raj. What do they do with those picks
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: that they acquired in that big vowel trade. Do they
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: use those picks? Do they? I don't know the value
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: of these damn picks in the NHL. I mean, is
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: there is there somebody on the trade market that fits
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: that power forward profile on another team that you could
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: target right now with a bunch of picks?
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: Oh, like grab a player through? That's interesting. Who is
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: a vow comparable a vowel comparable? Yeah, I don't know
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: if there's a lot out there.
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: There's just there's really not that. Like Mason mccavish in Anaheim,
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: he's younger, he kind of puts up the same amount
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: of points. McTavish could be that type of player.
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: Who can you find that you want to play with
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: on that second line? Who do you think would fit
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: in well with nas and Brock or Gabe and you
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: know whoever it's gonna be on that in.
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: The top six, It could be the top line as well.
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: You could be trading for you.
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: You're gonna replace either because Ma's not coming off that
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: top line. So it's either gonna be Artury or it's
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: gonna be Marty.
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: You're gonna find somebody better left side, the left side
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: in the in the left side of the ABS top
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: line has changed so many times. It's it's Natchushkin one day,
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: it's Land to Scott, the next day it's ARCHERI liking
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: it in a couple of days down the road, like
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: that left side has been a rotating piece for many,
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: many years, So that's not crazy to think. I think
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: another player which they don't have the assets probably to
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: go out and get his Matthew Nyes in Toronto. He'd
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: look really good, but they want like a top ten
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: pick and a current player and a prospect for him.
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: The Abs don't have the ability to do that. You
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: could look at Jake Debrusque in Vancouver who Debrusque would
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: fix the power play issue. I I think there's also
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: the possibility of, like if you swing bigger Vic on
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: the defensive side instead of bringing back Burns and Kulak,
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: you find out another defense been, like a true top
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: four guy, and you spend a little bit more money
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: there in free agency? Would you would anyone look at
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: Patrick Kane?
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: Well, dude, all I know is this, the Ads are
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: loaded with draft picks. They've got They've got a bunch
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: in the arsenal here correct.
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: Not high draft picks.
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: But they have picks.
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: They have picks.
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: They have picks.
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: They have a second rounder and a third rounder on Saturday.
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: They have two fourths, two fifths, ten or sevenths.
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: They have ten picks. Yes, so that's something that the
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: Nuggets did not possess, right, the Nuggets in their arsenal
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: just hell, they had to trade to pick to get
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: a couple more picks. So at least they have that
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: going for him, and we'll see what they do with
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: those picks. There's no reason you're drafted ten players, is
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: what I'm saying. I mean, they gotta gotta move some
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: of those.
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: You I don't want to get two kagi here up
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: Dylan Larkin. Markan's a possibility center. I mean, you don't
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: need another center, but that is.
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: Could you move Larkin to the winger?
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you traded away as center already.
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they have so many centerment, man, there's so many
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: Nick wah and nasm Kadri Brock, Nelson, Nathan McKinnon. Larkin
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: would be a possibility. Now that's a lot of money.
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: A lot of that eleven million dollars goes away if
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: you bring in Dylan Larkin and then you are truly
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: hunting in the bargain bin. You are looking at Brent
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: Burns at like a million dollars max. You're looking at
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: I'll bring thirty eight year old radco goodis one and
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: a half million men.
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: Uh Guru asked a question you're on twitch, why couldn't
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: the Ams get a first round pick for Val? And
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: I think the answer is pretty simple. I think the
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: contract's too long, and the contract being that long probably
• 11:47
  Speaker 5: makes the contract tough to move.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it was. It was a second, a third, and
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: a fifth, right.
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: I don't believe VAL's good enough to warrant a first
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: round pick. That is a top six wing with the
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: scoring ability to get to like fifty points. It doesn't
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: warrant a first rounder. He's very good, but that's not
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: the player that brings back a first round draft selection.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: Vic.
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: I don't know if it's the contract that hurts them there.
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: I think it's VAL's availability. So while we can look
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: back at the history of Valnachuskin.
• 12:19
  Speaker 5: Go in hand, if it's not. If he's not available
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: and you have to pay for four more years, that's
• 12:23
  Speaker 5: a problem, right.
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: And I'm not even talking about the off ice issues.
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: I think they had to wait until this year to
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: trade Valnichushkin because now the off ice issues are in
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: the past. But what has resurfaced, particularly in the last
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: two postseasons, Valves turned into Aaron Gordon. He is the
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: most important player on the team in the most important
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: minutes outside of obviously your your crazy superstars Nathan McKinnon
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: and cal mccarr are. To Nikole Jokich, right, he's the
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: He's the most important second or third type of player
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: on your team. In the last two post seasons, he
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: has not been available to you when you've needed him
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: the most. So I think that's the main reason why
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: you couldn't get a first is that they look at
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: now his health, not his off season, of his off
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: ice availability, his health, and they go, that's now a
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: question mark.
• 13:12
  Speaker 5: Speaking of Aaron Gordon, my wife last night says, hey, look,
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: Aaron is in the Amalfi Coast and he looks good.
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: I go, great, I hope he looks good next May
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: and June.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I saw that picture too. He was hanging out
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: with Russell Westbrook. Right, he was hanging out with Russell
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: Westbrook and somebody at another NBA player. I can't remember
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: who it was, but yeah, he was hanging out with Russ.
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: I don't know, but the fact my wife is stalking
• 13:35
  Speaker 5: Aaron shocker.
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: Aaron Gordon looks good shirtless on a boat in the moufie.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's going to continue to do that.
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: That's just what age you guys see the photoshop to
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: the AI photos.
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: Just sell us. Listen.
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: He looked really good in that, you know, cut off
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: white shirt when he's just putting up shots and served me.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: But I was like, man, my man's looking good. My
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: man's looking good. Might let's do that. Let's take a
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: time out. When we come back, I do have some
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: NBA news and notes to get you, and a little
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: bit of NFL as well.
• 14:06
  Speaker 5: That is next.
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: It is Colorado sports legend Vick Lombardy Alix trying to
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: me Mark Burton only Steve Nelson Company live from the
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: back of Shinker Studios. The Altitude Sports Radio app is
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: powered by the will Height Law Firm. Injury lawyers go
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: to Willhightwins dot com. That's willite wins dot com. All right, gentlemen,
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: So yesterday in the NBA, we got some interesting things
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: to talk about in the NBA. Before we talk a
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: little NFL news that just came across. But so yesterday
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: LaMelo Ball was traded to the Minnesota Timbles, which was
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: fairly interesting, and ESPN gave Minnesota a D on that
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: trade grade but mostly VIC because they said it's a
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: high risk, high reward move that LaMelo is kind of.
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: I mean, we I like watching LaMelo play basketball, but
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: that's because the man is chaos on the hard like
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: you know what, and he loves to make huge plays
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: and huge mistakes. So I have no idea how it's
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: gonna fit in Minnesota. But the reaction yesterday seems to
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: be like, whoa what exactly are the Timberwolves doing. We
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: talked about it, VIC, So now a day later, after
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: you've sat on it, have you changed your opinion at
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: all whatsoever when it comes to this Minnesota now one bit.
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: I mean, the t Wolves minus Julius Randall and Nas
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: Reed are better than the t Wolves with LaMelo Ball,
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: or I should say they're not as good as the
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: t Wolves with LaMelo Ball. They're just not because you
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: took away two bigs. Both of them were productive bigs.
• 15:41
  Speaker 5: One was a starter, one was six Man of the Year,
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: and you replace those two bigs with a really really,
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: really good point guard. I get it. I understand the
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: value of LaMelo ball, But in the process, you got smaller,
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: you lost a little bit of your toughness. I don't
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: see how this makes Minnesota better. It makes them more dynamic,
• 16:00
  Speaker 5: it makes them more entertaining, it makes them more offensive oriented.
• 16:06
  Speaker 5: But this was a defensive team, and their defensive premise,
• 16:10
  Speaker 5: what they what they bring, is no longer there their identity.
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: So no, it doesn't change my mind to one bit.
• 16:17
  Speaker 5: They're not as good as they were two days ago.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: Are you sure? Because if I believe that if you
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: were an NBA player, your game would resemble LaMelo ball,
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: like if you made it into the league, VIC, your
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: game would resemble LaMelo ball, just madness out there on
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: the court. Do you not agree that that's how you
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: play ball.
• 16:36
  Speaker 5: I love his style. I love it. It's fun to watch.
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: It's playground, it's creative. You never know what you're gonna get.
• 16:46
  Speaker 5: You will not hear me say anything bad about LaMelo's
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: style of play. That's not the questionnaire. The question is
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: is that going to work in the playoffs? Is that
• 16:57
  Speaker 5: going to work to beat teams? Can you shut that
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: easier than you could shut down a six foot ten,
• 17:02
  Speaker 5: six' eleven power. Forward basically Nas reed was a perfect
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: fit for. THEM i don't understand the, move.
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: And he was under contract for the next three. Years
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: LIKE i don't get the other thing that we don't even.
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: Mention they started moving away from that depth and it
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: didn't hurt them against The nuggets in the postseason this.
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: Year like you. Forget they moved on From Nikkeil Alexander
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: walker last year and he was the most improved player
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: in THE, nba and that was a depth piece that they.
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: Loved that was a thorn in the side of The
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: nuggets when he played those couple of years In. Minnesota
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: so they've moved on from what made The timberwolves The.
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: Timberwolves And sandford made a really good point yesterday WHEN
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: i was speaking to him about. This is this The
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: timberwolves organization looking in The nuggets, going we've aced. You
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: we built this team yes to beat.
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: You.
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: Yes and now that we've ased you and we have your,
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: number we're looking on to other. Things we're looking on
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: to how do we beat the, thunder how do we
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: beat The.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: YEAH i agree with, that BUT i don't think It's
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: they're not thinking it exactly like. That they're not thinking
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: we got past you were. Good they're thinking you're no
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: longer the team that we're. Chasing The nuggets are no
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: longer on the top of the, hill, Right that's probably
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: what they're. Thinking they're, like, man now we got to
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: deal With okac In San antonio and we got to
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: change our team to do it.
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: Again. Guys it's funny to me That minnesota looks at
• 18:25
  Speaker 5: their situation and, says, well you, know we Beat denver
• 18:29
  Speaker 5: two out of three, years so we're good to Go denver.
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: Again denver's done something you. Haven't denver's won a, Chip
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: denver's had a, Parade denver understands what it takes to get.
• 18:42
  Speaker 5: There all you've done is the conference. Final so, yeah
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: they got to change it. Up, yeah, yeah, yeah they
• 18:49
  Speaker 5: got to take extra measures to change it. Up they
• 18:52
  Speaker 5: haven't gone Where denver's, gone different.
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: EXPECTATIONS i guess the craziest rumor in the end that
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: came out yesterday AND i was reading about this morning
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: is simply this And Vic, bruce this is kind of
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: crazy to. Me so THE La clippers are trying to
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: move on From Kahi. Leonard if it's. Possible LIKE i
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: don't even know with the whole, aspirate like the because
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: THE nba is still investigating what what went on With
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: Steve balmer and The clippers And qui and all that
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: kind of. Stuff but they might be moving on From.
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: Qui But Kawhi leonard just told The, Clippers, okay you

• 19:34
  Speaker 5: To let me. See did he reveal those? Teams?
• 19:37

• 19:50
  Speaker 3: Lakers it's not The. Lakers he gave them two, teams
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: and it. Is the two teams are kind of, crazy,
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: man kind of. Crazy but in, Fact i'm not sure
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: the two teams would Want Kawhi.
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: Leonard are they in The?
• 20:00
  Speaker 5: East? No is San antonio one of The?
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: Yes, yes San. Antonio well so.
• 20:07
  Speaker 5: He would go back to The spurs despite forcing himself
• 20:11
  Speaker 5: out of, there extricating himself from The spurs years.
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: Ago exactly why would San? ANTONIO i, mean and how
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: can they how can that divorce be? Fixed you can't.
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: Figure but you.
• 20:20
  Speaker 5: Remember why he Left San. Antonio he had an, issue
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: an injury.
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: Issue, yeah AND i remember, that.
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: Challenged him on, it, yes and he, said screw, OFF
• 20:30
  Speaker 5: i want.
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: Out like some of the, players like Manager, genobi he
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: was like he should, play he can't. Play what's going?
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: On and Then qui is, like you know, What you're.
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: Right there's The Jack eichel situation In. Buffalo, yeah and
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: Then jack went To, vegas the same exact. Situation so
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: the other.
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: Team the other team is The Toronto, raptors so he.
• 20:46
  Speaker 4: Wants to go. Back he's like team he's not.
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: Successful, Yes he's, like trade Me, toronto trade me To San.
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: Antonio why would either one of those teams Want Kwhi?
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: Leonard why would you want? Quiet, like if you're San,
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: ANTONIO i get, it, MAN i get. It you were
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: in THE nba finals this. Year does bringing In qui
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: if you can work out? Whatever they hated each, other
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: they hated each other at that.
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: Relationship San antonio could make it work simply for the
• 21:09
  Speaker 5: fact that they want to get off D Aaron. Fox
• 21:11
  Speaker 5: and if they can get off D Aaron fox's, contract
• 21:14
  Speaker 5: which would match up With Kawhi, leonard.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: You are so, Right, vick because and they mentioned, it
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: this is crazy to. Me Darren fox is making just
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: like eight hundred thousand dollars less Than, kuhi so the
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: salaries are almost, exact. Exactly, so, no you were exactly
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: right on that. One but once, again why WOULD i Take?
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: Daron you Take darin If San antonio gives you a
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: handful of first round picks as, well and they have
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: picks they.
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: Do, yes that's. True, yes San antonio's got, yeah they got.
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: Assets they HAVE i Mean santa's. First next, year they
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: have their own. First they have their own, first and
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: twenty twenty eight that their own first in twenty twenty.
• 21:50
  Speaker 5: Nine get and you know, what San antonio is so
• 21:54
  Speaker 5: young as it, is they really don't need those first
• 21:56
  Speaker 5: round picks as badly as some, teams.
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: Right because you can be like young quarter we, got
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: we got a twenty year old who's playing pretty good by.
• 22:04
  Speaker 5: Harp, yeah see that deal could. HAPPEN i could see.
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: That and if you Put kawhi a veteran presence on
• 22:11
  Speaker 5: That San antonio team right, Now so let's say you
• 22:13
  Speaker 5: swap those two players And San antonio is the number
• 22:17
  Speaker 5: one team in The Western.
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: Conference San, Antonio, man they might have Beat New york
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: if if if that deal had gone down this year
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: instead of you.
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: Know, what you know, What kawhi get? You because here's
• 22:30
  Speaker 5: why The spurs lost in THE Nba. Finals they got these,
• 22:33
  Speaker 5: leads they were reeled back in and in the fourth
• 22:37
  Speaker 5: quarter of every, game they didn't have that go to. Guy.
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: Wemby wasn't that go to guy Held Dylan harper had
• 22:43
  Speaker 5: to score for them in the fourth quarter of games a.
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: Rookie so they need that go to guy who they
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: can lean, on and that could Be. Kawhi that would
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: be a brilliant move For San antonio if they could
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: pull that. Off to be honest with, you did you? Guys,
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: See boston is demanding four first round picks For Jalen,
• 22:58
  Speaker 5: brown which eliminates The. Nuggets, obviously all this talk about
• 23:02
  Speaker 5: The nuggets making the, deal they don't want, players they want.
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: Picks and if that's the, case If boston is saying
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: we want four first round, Picks i'm A boston. Fan i'm, saying,
• 23:11
  Speaker 5: man you are fully engaged in rebuild. MOLD i, mean
• 23:15
  Speaker 5: that's it's over for.
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: Them would you if if The nuggets had those, picks
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: would you would you do that deal if The nuggets
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: had the first to give, up would you do that?
• 23:23
  Speaker 5: Deal?
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah he's a pretty good, player, Man.
• 23:26
  Speaker 5: YEAH i, Would but they. Don't the reason why The
• 23:29
  Speaker 5: nuggets are in this situation right now is that they've
• 23:32
  Speaker 5: they've utilized all those. Picks they're, Gone they've extinguished all.
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: Picks, right there's no player That boston wants outside Of.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: Joker you do that.
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: With That kawhi. SITUATION i want to look at it
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: from The clippers. Perspective Would balmer be willing to admit
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: this was a. Failure we're going to rebuild? Now because
• 23:52
  Speaker 4: if those if those are the two, teams, right If
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: toronto And San antonio are the two, teams The toronto
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: deal is get, younger get a few first round draft,
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: picks and take on the Darn fox. Situation but if It's,
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: Toronto toronto has the active currently in their primes or
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: just after their. PRIMES nba players that l The clippers
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: over the last like ten fifteen years have kind of
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: been in love, with. Right they would Love Brandon. Ingram
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: they would love A Scottie barnes or AN. Rj barrett
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: or A Manny quickly, right like all of those players
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: would work IN la if The clippers don't want to, say,
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: hey we're gonna suck for a couple of years and
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: take some, picks LIKE i don't know If bamber is
• 24:33
  Speaker 4: willing to do.
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: That let me ask you a simple. Question do you
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: think THE La, clippers presently, constituted do you think they scare? Anybody?
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: No, no, no have they really you, know every?
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: Year, oh watch out for The. Clippers, oh watch out
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: for The. Clippers that's just Not, no they. Don't they.
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: Don't so If I'm balmer and if he's you, know
• 24:54
  Speaker 5: if pride doesn't get in the, way, yeah shut it,
• 24:57
  Speaker 5: down start, OVER i don't think they have anything on
• 24:59
  Speaker 5: their that scares anyone in The Western.
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: Now you're, Right Derek jones Brook, lopez it's Not, yeah
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: you're not like whoa watch out Becomes Darius garland Brook.
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: Lopez but let me let me ask you guys this
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: Because i'm still not sure this can even. Happen because
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: THE La clippers And Steve balmer And Kawhi leonard might
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: be married through, crime you, know like like they through,
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: cheating you know WHAT i, Mean like they might not
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: be able to move on from one another because they're
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: they're locked hand in hand with whatever this you, know
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: circummitting the salary cap thing is going to be like
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: if you, Trade if San antonio trades For Kawi leonard
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: and then THE nba investigation, says, yeah, man he took
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: a whole bunch of money under the. Table we're gonna
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: suspend you for a season or like whatever it.
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: IS i Think valmer's greatest aspiration is to move on
• 25:48
  Speaker 5: From Kawhi leonard at this. Point, yeah he aspires to
• 25:53
  Speaker 5: move on to LET whi find roots.
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: Elsewhere, yeah, Spread, yeah he us to grow in another.
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: City, well VIC i had a couple of friends from
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: The milwaukee area staying with me this, week and it
• 26:13

  Speaker 5: guys are disrespectful to their own, teammates and they'll do
• 29:48
  Speaker 5: whatever it takes.

  Speaker 4: And disrespectful because the lack of their teammates either one
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: doing the right thing on the court or two TRYING
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: i suppose to take you, Know burdo's line of thinking

• 30:03
  Speaker 4: joker just doesn't have that.
• 30:05
  Speaker 5: Vein he doesn't have, that and it's it's actually a
• 30:08

• 34:08
  Speaker 5: people that don't know how sports. Operates were you upset
• 34:13
  Speaker 5: that THE us lost To turkey last?
• 34:16

• 34:18
  Speaker 3: know they were already through to the. Knockout you already
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: knew they were going to play in the. Knockout BUT
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: i would say it's not ideal losing on the last
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: kick of the of the.
• 34:27
  Speaker 5: Match it, Was but the game doesn't.
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: Matter, yeah it doesn't.
• 34:31
  Speaker 5: Matter it was an exhibition game for both. Teams it
• 34:34
  Speaker 5: was a. Friendly in, fact it meant a lot more To.
• 34:35
  Speaker 5: Turkey they didn't want to leave The states empty. Handed
• 34:38
  Speaker 5: they wanted, something and what better than to beat the
• 34:41
  Speaker 5: host country right to go back to their home country
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: and say we did. Something because they were. Eliminated before
• 34:45
  Speaker 5: the game, started THE us team sat.
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: Everybody, yeah, YEAH a polistic did get in late in
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: the second, half so.
• 34:52
  Speaker 4: It's heat by the, Way, YEAH i thought he played like.
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: Crap you thought he played poorly the twenty. Minutes every,
• 34:57
  Speaker 4: time every time the ball touched him something.
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: Dangerous, yeah BUT i.
• 35:00
  Speaker 5: Thought he also made a couple of. Turnovers he just
• 35:02
  Speaker 5: Needed he needed that, time the, turnovers maybe playing with
• 35:05
  Speaker 5: the other people that he's not used to playing. WITH
• 35:08
  Speaker 5: i mean that the first touches for THE us, team
• 35:11
  Speaker 5: you could tell the difference between their top unit and
• 35:13
  Speaker 5: the second. Unit first, touches weren't there that left wing
• 35:16
  Speaker 5: guy whoever is playing left To. Ford he was. Lost
• 35:19
  Speaker 5: he couldn't control the. Ball he was off sides all the.
• 35:22
  Speaker 5: Time i'm telling you, now it was a different. Team
• 35:25
  Speaker 5: it was a different, team AND i felt a different.
• 35:28
  Speaker 5: Team that's not THE us team that we saw in
• 35:30
  Speaker 5: the first two. Games they're, FINE.
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: I agree with. YOU i will say that it was
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: really nice to See Austin, trusty Former Colorado rapid score
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: a goal for.
• 35:38
  Speaker 5: Team he almost scored two man head in the later
• 35:42
  Speaker 5: in the second that could have gone.
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: Down so that Was what do you think about all
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: the pomp and, Circumstance like as soon As Paris, hilton,
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: So Paris hilton delivers the game, ball And i'm Like,
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: okay we're already off the. Rails we haven't even started this.

• 36:25
  Speaker 4: Brain don't talk just talking to. Himself that should have
• 36:30
  Speaker 4: Been that should have been the, moment Like Brad pitt ain't.
• 36:32
  Speaker 4: Up there's Just Edward norton And Tyler.
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: Great not like they even. Showed they showed him when

  Speaker 5: with all the different levels. Gorgeous, yeah it's it's pretty cool.
• 36:52
  Speaker 5: Looking losing To turkey that there were moments of. Greatness
• 36:56
  Speaker 5: there were moments they, defensively they fell, apart And i'm
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: not worried about that. Game i'm. Not they've Played bosnia On,
• 37:04
  Speaker 5: Wednesday Bosnia. Herzegovina that's a big. One THE us should
• 37:07
  Speaker 5: win that. Game there's no reason why THE us can't
• 37:10
  Speaker 5: win that. Game should win that, game so they should
• 37:13
  Speaker 5: advance to The sweet.
• 37:14
  Speaker 3: Sixteen, Well, vick let me ask you about that BECAUSE
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: i was talking with coach a little while ago because
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: WHEN i was watching at, halftime they had that commercial
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: where they brought On Mike ruzioni to promote the knockout
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: rounds because he was talking about like do you believe in?
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: Miracles AND i was, like it's It's.
• 37:30
  Speaker 4: Mike it's IT'S TV.
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: Usa but it made me. Think it made me, think,
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: like what actually Are TEAM'S usa odds of winning The
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: World cup now that they're in the group, STAGE i
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: mean into the knockout stage and there are AND i
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: Guess i'm kind of. Surprised there are a lot of.
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: Teams there's nine teams ahead of them in this in
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: in in the, odds but, Yeah TEAM usa Has their
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: odds are at thirty three to one to win The World.
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: Cup If TEAM usa wins The World. Cup that's isn't.
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: THAT i, mean that's greater than The miracle On. Ice
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: like that's more like there's there's what it would be
• 38:06
  Speaker 3: one of the Greatest american moments in.
• 38:08
  Speaker 5: Sports history if they will be right up there with
• 38:11
  Speaker 5: The miracle On, ice BECAUSE i don't know what you,
• 38:13
  Speaker 5: know odds there were back, then, RIGHT i don't know
• 38:16
  Speaker 5: what the odds were of that young team of you,
• 38:19
  Speaker 5: know college. Players, yeah this this would go right up.
• 38:23
  Speaker 5: There this would be right up. THERE i could tell you.
• 38:26
  Speaker 5: THIS i would not be surprised one bit if THE
• 38:29
  Speaker 5: us got to the at least The grade eight final.
• 38:32
  Speaker 5: Four they'll Beat, bosnia and it'll be a disappointment if
• 38:36
  Speaker 5: they can't Beat Bosnia, orzegovina something That italy couldn't.
• 38:39
  Speaker 4: Do so you'll forget so quickly about the first two
• 38:42
  Speaker 4: Games World cup if they lose that.
• 38:44
  Speaker 5: This is a winnable. Game they should win this, game
• 38:47
  Speaker 5: and then you move on and who knows who they
• 38:48
  Speaker 5: meet there in the in The.
• 38:50
  Speaker 4: It'll either be, They it'll either Be egypt Or South.
• 38:53
  Speaker 4: Korea another winnable. Game it's not it's not gonna be,
• 38:57
  Speaker 4: easy but a winnable. Game, again as long as you
• 39:00
  Speaker 4: don't run into the.
• 39:01
  Speaker 5: Powerhouses if you don't have A brazil or A netherlands
• 39:05
  Speaker 5: or something the way for then you'll be. Fine.
• 39:07
  Speaker 4: Spain if you win those two, Games spain will likely
• 39:10
  Speaker 4: be waiting for you in the. Quarters and in order
• 39:12
  Speaker 4: to get to the, final you then have to Beat
• 39:15
  Speaker 4: spain in the. Quarters and this is If chalk plays
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: out The spanish in the, quarters The germans in the semi,
• 39:21
  Speaker 4: final who might be the best team in the, world
• 39:24
  Speaker 4: and then you get to meet whoever comes out of
• 39:25
  Speaker 4: the opposite side of the, bracket which could be you,
• 39:28
  Speaker 4: know The brazilians or The.
• 39:31
  Speaker 5: Argentinians so as much criticism that's been laid on the
