01:35So it would certainly make sense that, you know, the agents representing Giannis, letting everyone know, guess what?
01:42Here's the announcement.
01:43We're going to have a meeting here with management and ownership of Milwaukee, see if we can work something out.
01:49And this isn't the first time.
01:50I mean, listen, he was sold on the idea that Doc Rivers, he was willing to give them this season to figure it out.
01:59He's still under contract.
02:00Can you put enough guys around me?
02:02Can we rebuild this thing and make another run?
02:05And apparently he's not convinced that they did that.
02:09Yeah, tough scene.
02:10It is tough scene there.
02:11You got your superstar player.
02:12He wants out.
02:13You know, as a coach, the minute that Giannis leaves, you are getting fired right out the door.
02:17Here's your meal ticket right now.
02:18You're going to absolutely sit up there and tell you, what?
02:21My man ain't getting traded right here.
02:23Now, if you are a superstar of a franchise, you're worth a ton of money, and your franchise possibly will fold, if you do leave, they do everything they can to keep you there.
02:31Even if that player is telling you, I don't want to be here.
02:33I don't like my coaches.
02:34I don't like the GM.
02:34I don't like my teammates.
02:35Doesn't matter.
02:36How about this report?
02:37If you're making, I don't know, a few million dollars a year, you're expendable, having a bad season, maybe you don't want to get vocal about management coaches and your players to hold them accountable, or you will be sent home on a road trip in the middle of the night on your farewell tour.
02:51That's what happened to CP3.
02:52Can't be telling guys, hey, man, get it in order in here.
02:55They throw you out quick, man.
02:57They do.
02:58Well, yeah.
02:59I mean, one of the all-time greatest clippers in the organization, right?
03:05You brought him back on a farewell tour, retirement tour, and then he comes in, sees what's going on in the locker room and in management and coaching, and he's like, are you kidding me with this?
03:17This place is a dumpster fire, and they're all like, oh, we can't have this.
03:21Oh, no, we can't.
03:22We can't.
03:22We've got to let him.
03:23We'll bring him back at the end of the year for the retirement ceremony, but in the meantime, he's got to go.
