• 3:45
  Speaker 1: our lead this hour is from pro Bouncy Ball. We'll
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: get back to the super Bowl. I know, I got
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: a bunch of guys on hold. I want to talk
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: about the superb recare about the basketball, you know, the whining,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: the non stop whining. I know, I know, I know,
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: I know. Just take take a breath. Everything's to be okay.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: We got a pretty good story that dropped in the
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: nighttime hours and it's got some legs. Here. The trade
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: deadline is coming up. Here, we are hanging out early
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: on a Tuesday. The trade deadline is on a Thursday,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: so there's a lot of jockeying for position. And we
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: have a surprise name that has entered the transfer portal
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: in the eleventh hour, if you will. So if you
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: didn't see this, perhaps perhaps you were not paying attention.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: We have learned that the Clippers guard James Harden is
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: apparently not happy and he's like, I would like to
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: go somewhere else. Shocking that never happens with James Harden.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: So Harden trying to work out a deal by Thursday's
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: NBA trade deadline. Harden sat out a game in Phoenix.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: They claimed it was for personal reasons. They were lying.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: He also didn't play in the Clippers game against the
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Sixers on Monday night, again personal reasons. Now we know
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: the rest of the story that the personal reasons had
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: nothing to do with anything other than, hey, let me
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: see what's going on here and you look around. I'm
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: gonna get out my apps and see where I want
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: to go live. All right, so let us discuss the question.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: You make the call. I love this. You make the call.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Who's behind these trade rumors involving the Clippers and James Harden?
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: Is it the Clippers or James Harden? You make the call.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: So I've got jock Itch, highly contagious, and middle schoolers
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: passing notes. And that was a weird belt. And we
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: will combine all of these things together, and we're gonna
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: play rock paper scissors, is what we're gonna play. What
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: happened to our bell? Did we break our bell? What
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: do you mean that's the same being? We didn't sound
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: like the same belt. No, that's not the same belt.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: That's not the same that's not the same beat. It's
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: literally the same belt. That's not the same. You does
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: not that's no, it's not the same bell. I'm telling you.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: It sounds different to me. It sounds like a different bell.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: I think somebody sabotaged our bell. You might be hitting
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: the right bell button, but that did not sound like
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: the same bell to me. It still doesn't sound like
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: the same bell. It doesn't it sounds a little different,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: all right anyway, But back to it, get back to
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: the stay on the road dummy. All right, So here's
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: the deal again. You make the call who's behind the
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: trade rumors? Is it the Clippers or is it James Harden?
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: So number on that sounded the same. So after a
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: grueling minutes long mallor investigation and deliberation where we did,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: in fact play rock paper scissors, we did play that game,
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: we determine that these scales are leaning towards beard beard
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: doub beard. Yep, this is elementary, my dear Watson, as
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: how I will phrase it. Now, James Harden's got the
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: remote control, he's got all the batteries, all the triple
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: A batteries right there, and he's got the no we're
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: not doing that or yes we are doing that buttons.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: He's got all that. He's all that ready to go.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: And so Harden's been away from the Clippers last couple
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: of games there, and what has he been doing. Well,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: I guess he's got some boxes and some duct tape
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: and stuff like that. It's kind of putting stuff together.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: So now there are people that are acting like the
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: Clippers are the masterminds here and they're trying to get
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: rid of another big name player and all that. I
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: find that hard to believe if you read the fine print. Right,
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: let me tell you why. So, if you read the
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: fine print, Harden that technically is on a one year lease,
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: but really just a lease the rest of February, March
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: in April, so it's really like a three month relocation.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: You can stay in a hotel. You don't even have
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: to get a place to stay a short term rental.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: If you get traded, you just stay in a hotel.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: That's it. You get the room service. He can live
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: at a strip club he loves those, the ballet if
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: he wants. And so he's got the player options. So
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: as I understand it, that means he's got a no
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: trade class. He has a veto a no trade option,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: and that means he has the nuclear codes. James Harden
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: has the nuclear codes in this if this thing happens,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: and it's not a guarantee, but if James Harden is
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: traded by the deadline on Thursday, then he's the one
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: that is nodding his head and saying, all right, let's
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: do this. Here we go. Come on, He's got the
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: no trade veto, so he said, hey, I'm not going
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: there that I'm using my vito. I'm not going to
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: go play for that team. And so that's what he's got.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: And when you take a couple of steps back and
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: you look out at the Serengetti and you look the
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: landscape here, you realize that this is a classic move
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: by James Harden. Classic move. We've been here behind these
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: microphones at Fox Sports Radio for many, many years, and
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: during that time, Harden has bounced from team to team
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: to team to team to team, and this is what
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: he does. He's really good at it, and he's a maestro.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: And I give him credit. He didn't become a fatty
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: like he did in Brooklyn and Philadelphia, didn't turn into
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: the Goodyear Blimp to get out. He seems like he's
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: still in some good shape there. And Harden. My diagnosis
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: is James Harden's suffering from Jocketch. You know. Yeah, in
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: relationships they say there's a seven year itch. This is
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: a cousin of the seven year itch. It's a version
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: of Jockeche. And outside of Houston, which was the outlier
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: the Rockets. Outside of Houston, James Harden changes laundry every
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: two to three years. Nets Brooklyn, Check Philadelphia, check Check.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Now the Clippers they're next. And James Harden's really good
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: at sending those awkward text messages about the breakup at
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: three in the morning. It's not you, it is you.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: I'm out see you later, suckers, I'm gone. And so well,
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: Harden's packing the boxes and scheduling the the U haul
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: and all that. He's got fresh start syndrome. Yet again,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: it's the same movie, different location. You wonder how many
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: more times can Harden pull this off? As he's getting
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: older and older, but yet he is still able to
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: pull it off. And because of his contract, will the
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: Clippers be able to pull it off and get something?
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: Speaking of that, one of the popular rumors bouncing around
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: the echo chamber here on the Overnight involves a trade
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: that would send James Harden to Ohio. Holly Dick and
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Dayton Batman. I gotta get strip club John here on here,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: this guy. This would be the biggest news ever for
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: strip club.
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: John.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: Our guy in Cleveland's been calling me for years, a
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: purveyor of the ballet in northern Ohio. But the rumor
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: is hypothetical trade. This has been bouncing all over the place.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: The hypothetical trade would send James Harden to Northern Ohio
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: and Darius Garland, the guy that looks like Richard Sherman.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: Darius Garland would come back to the people's team. So
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: you make the call. You make the call. Who would
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: win that hypothetical trade James Harden for Darius Garland. So
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna frame it this way. In the regular season,
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: after looking at both players. In the regular season, Cleveland
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: would win. And I don't even it's even close, and
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: Cleveland would win the regular season version of the trade.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: James Harden is the star of the buffet of stats.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: He is, and he's still even in his age bracket
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: where you're supposed to start slowing down, he's still capable
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: going out and scoring thirty or forty points. Step back.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: He's got that. He got the foul shooting, he's got that.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: He's got a little bit of everything. It's like a
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: nice Vegas brunch back when the Vegas was run by
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: the mob and you can get good deals. It's like that.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: He's a Hall of Famer From roughly Halloween until March,
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: the be think of the Beard like a timeshare. So
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: it's like a timeshare there and awesome amenities, and then
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: everything goes away. Everything goes away once April comes around.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: And that's the problem. Things all of a sudden, I
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: know the sound. I've heard it, I've seen it. The
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: sound is kurk fluey. That's what it sounds like. It
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: goes kurfluy. And there is no cure, there's no vaccine.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: It's highly contagious. What is it. It's playoff Harden, playoff
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: hardened syndrome PHS. It happens one night and this still
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: goes on. James Harden in the playoffs. One night he
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: will be Mozart and he's like, oh man, he's over it.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: He's over Playoff Harden syndrome. He's Mozart. And then the
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: next night he's out there banging pots and pans together.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: It's like, well, your Mozart, dude, what happened? It's it's wild,
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: and it affects other players. And it's the thing is,
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: you don't know when the doo hickey, the what you
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: might call it, the thing of a jig is going
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: to malfunction. You know that it always does. You don't
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: know the exact moment that it happens. You don't know that,
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: but you mix in the fact that Harden is looking
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: for an off ramp, and it makes sense. And the
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: Clippers have an older team. Not that I'm really worried
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: about all that, but the argument would be that since
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: they traded all of their draft picks for the foreseeable future,
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: that the only way to alter the roster is via trade.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: And if James Harden doesn't want to be there, then
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: you get rid of him because you don't want prisoners,
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: you want volunteers, as the line goes, and so if
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: he's not happy, get rid of him and the Clippers
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: can have some meat ball surgery here and slice it open,
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: drain the grease a little bit, and then move on.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: And Darius Garland has been hurt and so he's younger.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: I'm not worked up about that is can you play?
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: Can you not play? He has made an All Star appearance,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: Darius Garland, so there is that he's not perfect, but
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: neither James Harden, because James Harden sucks in the place,
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: Like why would Cleveland want to make that deal other
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: than the fact, I guess they're just done with Darius Garland.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: But seriously, like, you know, this guy has a pre
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: existing condition, James Harden, and so why would you bring
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: him in knowing what he's going to ultimately do. He
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: will cost you, at least if you're lucky, he's only
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: going to cost you one game in a playoff series
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: because he doesn't show up. If you're lucky, more likely
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: than not, he's gonna suck for two games in a
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: playoff situation. And so again, you know, regular season for
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: the next couple of months, the rest of February, March,
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: and April. That's great for the Cavs. James Harder, be wonderful,
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: and so that's it. A long game and give a shot.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: And not that Darius Garland's guarantee of being great, but
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: you give it a shot, and you pick your poison,
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: all right. Meanwhile, speaking of pitting your poison, we go
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: to the Great State of Wisconsin, where the cheese curds
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: are fresh and the basketball is bad. Doc Rivers has
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: officially sunk the battleship or in this case, the Bucks.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: The full Doc Rivers experience and everyone jumping off the
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: Titanic as it sinks into the Atlantic Ocean, in this
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: case Lake Michigan. So if you have not heard Yannis
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: Dente Cumbo, the rumors are in the air everywhere, everywhere,
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: swirling like a tornado. And there's a decent chance, a
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: decent chance, that the Greek freak will be relocating and
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: he will be moving across the United States. But how
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: far across the United States. He's only played for the Bucks.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: I believe it's thirteen years. I think it's a long
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: time one team, and he was always the guy I
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: want to play for one team. I'm not gonna play
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: for anybody else. And then now all of a sudden today, yeah,
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: all right, so question, all right, what is on the
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: Yannis Dentic Cuombo trade radar? What is on the Yannis
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: Dentic Cumbo trade radar? That is the question. Right now,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: we are in the part of the manuscript where people
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: are just going with gut feelings and they're reading smoke
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: signals and sign language and all this stuff. So there's
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: no hard facts other than things are heating up. Right.
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: There's a developing interest this that all the all the
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: buzz words, just whispers and vibrations and all that. And
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: the idea that's being painted here is that NBA executives
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: are They're texting each other like middle school kids passing
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: around notes in class. All right, that's that's what they're
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: doing here. And and so the Knickerbockers, they timmber Wolves,
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: the Trail Blazers. Imagine that the Trailblazers, the Miami Heat
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: and others are all coming together here and they're all calling.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: They're calling the Milwaukee box and say let's make a deal.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: And everyone and their mother has kicked the tires on
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: this and everyone's taking a test drive. They're like, let's
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: let's give it a shot. And Milwaukee, they don't really
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: have the power because it's a player's league. Just like
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: James Harden's going to decide where he goes, well, Jiannis
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Adentacumbo is going to decide where he goes. And so
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: at this point, the Bucks are going to tap Giannis
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: on the shoulder and say, hey on behalf of Sleazy
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: Cheese and some of our other friends here who are
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: Bucks fans, Hey, big fella, Hey, where do you wanna
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: Where do you want to move to? You want to
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: go somewhere. It is interesting that, unlike just about any
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: other star player, there are people that truly believe Giannis
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: would be willing to go to the Portland Trailblazers, who
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: are a bad team, and reunite with Dame Lillard, who's hurt.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: They were together in Milwaukee and failed, and now they
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: can be together. If that happens, they'd be together in Portland.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: And then you look at the big board in Minnesota
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: also not a team that's normally involved in these kind
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: of discussions for a star player like this at the
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: trade deadline, but supposedly Minnesota is still in the thick
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: of it. You'd say, based on the comps, Yannis will
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: end up with Miami or the Knicks, and I don't
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: even think Golden State, like why would you want to
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: go there? Like that's over. Whatever that was was fine
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: and all that, but that they're not gonna win the
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: Golden State Warriors again there. So at this point it's
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: like up to Giannis and it's like real estate, and
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Giannis will say, all right, I'll play for this team
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: or that team as they get multiple baders, and then
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: Bucks will circle back to Team X, Y and Z
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: and they'll say, all right, team X, Y and Z,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: here last best and final offer, last best and final offer.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: No inspections no contingencies. That's it. Cash offers only, cash
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: offers only. And meanwhile, you also have Giannis right now,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: from what we understand, who is getting the full public
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: courtship from the NBA community, meaning roses from Dame Lizard,
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: boxes of chocolates from pat Riley, and some random celebrities
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: sliding into his DMS right now saying, hey, come on now,
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: let's play some footsie. Let's play a little footsie. Come
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: on now, you want to come over and play, Come
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: on now, that whole thing right under the table. He
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: was smiling. He was smiling for the cameras. They got
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: the whole, the whole thing. And remember though, when he
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: gets this loud, it gets this loud, that usually something's
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: about to happen. It's normally how this works here. If
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: the speakers are thumping, and they are thumping, the floor's moving,
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: and that's gonna be a trade, and I will be
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: here to break it down frame by friend. It is
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: the Band Maler Show. If you'd like to be part,
• 19:44

• 39:28
  Speaker 1: happen is the other players will gang up on them
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: and'll be like, no, you're not playing card. You're not
• 39:32
