00:00Crooked, the King says, can we trade Jimmy Butler for miles Garrett?
00:03I wish I'd probably shoot it down though.
00:05Last night, Jimmy Butler, this was the latest report that came.
00:08Uh, Brian Windhorst said that, uh, Jimmy Butler reached out to the
00:15warriors to halt trade talks with the heat, uh, letting them know that he
00:19wouldn't sign an extension with them.
00:22So there's that Jimmy Butler who, you know, his trade holdoff has
00:28basically sunk into irrelevance in the NBA scope because of the whole Luca thing.
00:33He basically was like, Oh guys.
00:35Also, I don't want to go to the warriors.
00:37I won't sign an extension with them.
00:38I was like, wait a minute.
00:39Didn't a second ago, the warriors barely want you in their locker room.
00:42Now you're saying, I don't want to sign an extension with you.
00:45Seems like kind of a, uh, I don't know.
00:48When I saw that report, I was like, what is this report?
00:50Like I get it.
00:51You're you still want to get to the, to the Phoenix suns, but I was under the
00:55like, I was under the impression, like the warriors barely wanted you.
00:58And now you're like, well, I won't even sign an extension with you guys.
01:01You're looking at it.
01:03I'm just curious as why is he making this as difficult as possible?
01:11Sometimes you got to let them know, you know, while we're at it, Beyonce, no,
01:14thanks, not interested.
01:16Huh?
01:17What?
01:18Let me go ahead and let everybody else know.
01:20Who's not interested in me that I don't want to go over there.
01:23Like we didn't want you anyway, dude.
01:26If Jimmy Butler sitting here telling the warriors, like, oh, you know what?
01:29Warriors, I don't want to go over there.
01:31The warriors are like, dude, nobody wanted you.
01:32Oh, you mean like if you were going to hook up with Beyonce, like, Hey,
01:35Beyonce, by the way, not interested.
01:38Thank God.
01:39Yeah.
01:39No.
01:39Like I was like, okay, I guess that, you know, they said that there was
01:44some trade talks to the warriors.
01:46Um, but like, I don't want to reach the extension.
01:49Like, didn't we just hear like, you know, Steph Curry and Steve Kerr, like,
01:53we're like, I don't even know.
01:55It's like a classic.
01:56Oh yeah.
01:59You're stuck up warriors.
02:02Look, we get a dude.
02:03He wants to go to the sons.
02:04We're not idiots here.
02:05Uh, are the heat going to get to a point where they ever just,
02:08uh, tap out and take Bradley Beal?
02:10My guess is no.
02:11So.
02:12You know, we'll see what happens by Thursday.
02:14I just saw Tim Reynolds report last night that he said that talks are still
02:17ongoing with the whole Jimmy Butler thing.
02:20Uh, Ira Winderman reported that Bernie Lee declined to comment to the
02:24sun Sentinel about this report regarding the warriors.
02:27And then, uh, Anthony Chang reported over the weekend.
02:30He goes, I think the only firm offered is the sun.
02:32I don't think you can think there are any, anything that's gotten to
02:35offer levels with this, with this whole thing.
02:39Um, it's just funny because it's like, now it's like, well, now trades have
02:44happened and now we're still sitting here.
02:46We're going on to month two of the Jimmy Butler, Miami heat trade saga.
02:51And it's like, all right.
02:54What's the next thing that you're going to do?
02:56Like, what's the next move they can pull off.
02:57And so like in this midst of like 10 minutes after the air and Fox gets
03:01traded, it felt like Jimmy's camp's like, wait a minute, let's have
03:04another headline about us.
03:06Oh, we won't go to the warriors.
03:09Boy, I gotta tell you, I gotta tell you what's up, man.
03:16You have just totally switched on this thing.
03:19I haven't switched on it at all.
03:20Actually, to be honest with you, I really haven't switched on it.
03:27Like I've, I've, would you, would you pay Jimmy now?
03:31Obviously not Leroy.
03:32Like you don't think the facts have changed, dude.
03:34Like, come on, be a grownup.
03:35Like, I don't think, I think we're in the same situation.
03:38It'd be like me coming to you after you wandering the parking garage for
03:41four hours, not finding your car and be like, you think you should've
03:43taken a picture now, of course.
03:47No, you're not going to pay Jimmy now.
03:48Oh, you mean like after him and Pat Riley have gone to war?
03:51Yeah.
03:52Obviously not, dude.
03:54Obviously not.
03:55And it's like one of these things that, but I do think it's one of these
03:59things where it's like, all right, where are they, he going to be at?
04:02Like the worst thing right now is that he are going to be like trying to be
04:07strong-armed into taking a contract.
04:10They don't want to take on in Bradley Beal.
04:12And Jimmy's trying to like, you're like, Oh, Chris, Lisa, I won't go there.
04:16Warriors.
04:17I, I won't sign there.
04:19All right, cool.
04:19You want to go to the sons?
04:20We get it, dude.
04:21And now it's like, you guys just have to take the Bradley Beal contract.
04:25It's like, well, no, we don't.
04:26We, you know what we've we're, we could be, we're pretty
04:29used to not playing with you now.
04:31So what's the worst that's going to happen?
04:33You're going to opt in and then you'll try and do the trade.
04:37And then you're going to what?
04:38Not sign an extension with somebody else.
04:39I don't even understand that there's like 30 games left in the regular season.
04:42Like, what does Jimmy feel like is like, what's the next thing he's going to do?
04:46Because the heat have already made it clear.
04:48Once he comes, if he did, let's just go say we get to the end of the suspension,
04:50right?
04:51No, that's the trade deadline.
04:52No deal happens.
04:53Okay.
04:53Now Jimmy has to come back.
04:55Well, but Eric's posters already said what he's going to do.
04:56He's going to sit your ass on the bench.
04:58Right.
04:58Pretty much.
04:59You're going to sit your ass on the bench.
05:01Get ready, get, get, get ready to have some popcorn next to Kevin love.
05:05And that's it.
05:06And then it'll be awkward for one game and then everybody will forget about it.
05:09But how, my question is, is how, how would the rest of the team feel with him?
05:15Just sitting here.
05:17I don't know.
05:17It'll probably get to the point where they just tell him to stay home, but
05:20they'll do a couple of games where it's like, he just sits there and I don't
05:22think that he don't care because Leroy, once he starts tanking performances,
05:27right.
05:28And it did make it like, what now is the worst that can happen?
05:31Right.
05:31What's the worst that can happen now?
05:33I really want to know, like, what did you do?
05:36I'm curious if Jimmy backed himself into a corner where even 2027, nobody's going
05:42to pay him right at like it is at some point if he had played basketball and
05:50requested a trade, at least there'll be a lot of organizations look at him and
05:55say, you know what, we, we, let's try to work it out.
05:58We're going to try to work it out.
05:59We're going to try to work it out.
06:00We're going to try to work it out.
06:01We're going to try to work it out.
06:02We're going to try to work it out.
06:03You know what, we, we, let's try to work this out.
06:06He's been a professional.
06:07It is interesting though.
06:08I would like to point out, you know, Damian Lillard says he wants to go
06:11somewhere and Adam silver steps in.
06:13Apparently there's no step in that when it comes to, uh, Jimmy Butler bombing
06:17his trade destinations, apparently that's not a thing.
06:20It's cool though.
06:21I'm not, I'm not petty about it or anything.
06:22I mean, you think Damon, Jimmy are on the same.
06:27It's not about same like last year, Damian Lillard deter tried to deter
06:31where he wanted to go and the NBA stepped in.
06:33You can't just say you want to go there.
06:35And now when Jimmy Butler says he just wants to go to one team,
06:38what have I heard from the NBA?
06:43I'm just saying like, I get it, but I think it's a different,
06:48yeah, that's what I'm saying.
06:51Do tell frog boy frog boy game was like, I want to go to the heat and Jimmy
06:57Butler's like, I'd like to go to a team that potentially plays in Arizona.
07:02And where's purple and orange where he only wants to go to
07:07Phoenix because they'll extend it.
07:09That's it.
07:10Well, apparently like, hold on, hold on.
07:12He's saying in this, in this regard, the report is now, I told the
07:16words, I won't sign an extension with them, which I don't even think they
07:19offered, but let's just, let's, you know, so now let me get this straight.
07:24You'll only sign an extension with one team, which come on, dude, let's,
07:29let's be, let's be real about it.
07:30Let's be grownups about this.
07:32And you're telling me, Damian Lillard, classy as all can be.
07:36It's so crazy.
07:37Tries his hardest.
07:38It's like, I really like to play for this one team.
07:41You shut up, Damian Lillard, you shut up.
07:43You'll go to Milwaukee and Jimmy Butler is out here actively
07:47tagging his performance, wearing another team's paraphernalia.
07:51And the NBA is like, you deal with it, that it's so crazy.
07:56Okay.
07:56I'm not whining about it or anything.
07:57I just think it's interesting.
07:59It's very interesting.
08:01It's noted,
08:06not petty about it at all.
08:07It's just interesting.
08:09Is it not
08:10very, very, I mean, yeah, I just think that they're on two different levels.
08:23Right.
08:23I mean, wouldn't you want to reward the classy guy?
08:27Yeah, absolutely.
08:30But, but here's the, sometimes the guy who doesn't make a stink and
08:36who is classy, they think they can run over him and he doesn't get his way.
08:42Yeah.
08:43But the only problem with Jimmy is, is that you're making it hard when
08:48you're not playing basketball and you know that you could possibly, you
08:51don't want to be a player that people say, if he's in a bad mood, he could
08:55sabotage what we're trying to do.
08:56That's like any, can any team who doesn't want to extend Jimmy think
09:03Jimmy's going to come in, give them a hundred percent effort when his whole
09:07gripe has been, he didn't get extended.
09:09Like what, like, this is the thing that I find funny about it.
09:11Right.
09:11Like eventually the guy, does he, does he think he's entitled to get
09:14an extension just from anybody?
09:15Like, like you're going to, you're going to get, you're going to eventually
09:20show that you have to play basketball.
09:21Like that's my, that's my, it's going to have to be a thing.
09:24The extension would have been probably available in more situations.
09:29Had he been balling this year, of course, right.
