00:00I think that there's more to drop with this case.
00:02I don't think we're quite there yet.
00:04I think it's a huge tease from yesterday
00:06because it was billed as this massive thing,
00:10and they had four people speak at it from the federal level.
00:12And, yeah, I get it all, but at the bottom line, it's poker.
00:15And you were aided in some poker games
00:18where you had x-ray machines and certain contacts,
00:23like you're connected to the mob.
00:26Okay, now once you get past that,
00:27there's something else to this, isn't there?
00:28There's got to be more.
00:30There's got to be more like players betting, big-time players.
00:34And I think that potentially is going to be the next layer.
00:36No, I mean, that already became the layer yesterday.
00:38Chauncey Billups is, in the opinion of many,
00:41in my opinion, that he is co-conspirator number eight.
00:45He matches the description to a T.
00:49He is co-conspirator number eight.
00:51I don't know why he has to be labeled as co-conspirator number eight
00:54in the Terry Rozier indictment, but he is that guy.
00:57I mean, give me it.
00:59You got that description there?
01:00Yeah, why don't we go through that?
01:02He's a resident of Oregon.
01:03He was an NBA player from approximately 1997.
01:07That's the year, by the way, that Chauncey Billups was drafted.
01:09By the Boston Celtics.
01:11Through 2014 and then became an NBA coach since 2021,
01:15which is when he took over the Blazers.
01:16Oh, interesting.
01:17I don't know how many people fit that description right there.
01:20Wow.
01:21Who is Chauncey Billups?
01:22So co-conspirator number eight.
01:24It's the hot dog suit.
01:25We're all trying to figure out who this is.
01:27Who provided inside information about players and about injuries.
01:31And so this case for Chauncey Billups is very much about basketball and from a sports lens,
01:41through the sports lens, I should say, this is about basketball and less about poker.
01:46But those poker allegations are very strong.
01:51And I think that no matter what, even if you didn't have the element of the inside information with Chauncey Billups,
01:57you already have an NBA head coach who is involved in scamming money out of high stakes gamblers.
02:06And even that by itself is hugely problematic.
