00:00Do you remember Joe Lacob's email?
00:01Yes.
00:02Remember the email that went public, everybody?
00:03You all remember that, right?
00:05That email is stuck in my brain.
00:08Remember what it said?
00:10Not exactly.
00:11Refresh me.
00:11Well, no, I don't.
00:13But I mean, the idea of what it said.
00:15Where, right, trust me, I'm obsessed with this.
00:19Right.
00:19I'm working.
00:20I'm working on it every day.
00:21Trades are hard.
00:21Trades are hard.
00:23Your Lacob impression is underrated.
00:26But, like, you know, the coach thinks this, and the player thinks this.
00:30Players think that, and I got this going on over here.
00:34I'm working.
00:35I'm working on it.
00:35That was kind of the vibe of the email, and that email is still in my head.
00:40And that's one of, like, there's all the obvious reasons to want the Warriors to trade.
00:45For Giannis, but here's a new one.
00:48If they do, everybody would be on.
00:50They would be on the same page.
00:52Alignment.
00:52Yeah.
00:53I just don't think, I don't think that.
00:55They are right now.
00:56I think it's obvious that there are multiple opinions in the room.
00:59How many years?
01:00We've been running around here going, Steve hates Jonathan, and Joe loves Jonathan.
01:05And I don't even know that those things are totally 100% accurate, but they're...
01:10They're perceptions that have taken over, and that email is an example of something that...
01:15It feeds just the mere idea of it a little bit.
01:18We don't even know what Dunlap...
01:20Seemingly, we think, seemingly, about anything.
01:22I just don't...
01:23I think there's a lot of...
01:25I think there's a lot of opinions.
01:26There's a lot of cooks in the kitchen.
01:27Yeah, and just hearing you lay that out of...
01:30About the email had me thinking about the Draymond Green soundbite when he was talking about agendas.
01:35You know, everybody's out here, they got agendas, and so...
01:37Very good.
01:38Agendas now, we're late...
01:40In January, and if you wanted to play name that agenda around the room...
01:45Kamingas is, play me.
01:47Yes.
01:47Play me somewhere.
01:48And it should be.
01:49Steph is, you know...
01:50Get me another star.
01:51Jimmy's is, rehab.
01:53Draymond's is, God, I wish it was...
01:55It's 2021 again, and you know, you go around the room and...
01:58Build the podcast.
01:59Agendas.
02:00It's everywhere.
02:00Pat Spencer's thinking, I'm coming up on 50 games, guys.
02:03I'd like to get a deal.
02:04Right, and I'm not...
02:05Mother Jumper.
02:05Yeah, and Moses Moody's is, look, look at me, everybody.
02:08Turns out I'm better than you think.
02:10A lot of nights, so...
02:11Yeah, the agenda soundbite is starting to rattle around in my head.
02:14That's...
02:15That's a really, really good observation, I think, because that's kind of what I'm feeling in this.
02:20Moment is that we've probably arrived at a time where there's just...
02:25Too many opinions and too many people that are not pushing in a common goal direction.
02:30But acquiring Giannis would take care of all of that.
02:33All of it.
02:34You would just be like...
02:35Here's what we are up at the top of our roster, and they all want a championship.
02:38And everybody else...
02:40On the roster, just do exactly what everybody...
02:45Tells you to do.
02:46That's it.
02:47Buddy Heald style.
02:50Buddy Heald is the only one that's got no agenda.
02:52Buttered.
02:52Yeah.
02:53He's just like, what do you want me to do?
02:54I'll shoot...
02:55I'll shoot...
02:56I'll shoot...
02:56Just shoot, right?
02:57You want me to shoot?
02:58I'll shoot!
03:00No, now we want you to sit down.
03:01Okay, I'm going to sit down!
03:02We want you to go buy a winter coat.
03:04You're going to...
03:05Now we want you to sit next to Jimmy and make a funny...
03:08Okay, I'll do that, coach!
03:10Like, that's...
03:10That's it!
03:12And I'm sorry, and if people think that that's...
03:15That's like rude to younger players, but when you have personalities like that, Steph, and...
03:20Or Giannis in the room, that's the way it works!
03:22That's the way it has to work!
03:25The NBA is the most pecking order of the big three sports.
03:29Like, football...
03:30Football, if you're a rookie, and you're phenomenal, then right on!
03:33Rook, get in there and, you know...
03:35Have 12 and a half sacks, and baseball is kind of the same thing, where you come up, and you're a great...
03:40Great hitter, Buster Posey, comes up in his rookie year and tears the cover off the ball.
03:45And hits 300, it's like, yeah, Rook, you're probably not going to haze you as much.
03:48You're good!
03:49Um...
03:50Exactly right.
03:50Let's do, uh...
03:51Let's go to Rich in Fremont.
03:53Hi, Rich, what's up?
03:55Hey, what's up, guys?
03:56Thanks for taking my call.
03:58You know, I can't...
04:00I understand my week.
04:01I mean, I generally get up, I get dressed, I eat some food, I get...
04:05I get in my truck, and I turn the ignition on, I turn my...
04:10I turn the radio on, and I listen to 95.7 The Game.
04:12Right.
04:13And this week...
04:15This week, I turned it on, and there was nothing.
04:19Whoa.
04:19Whoa.
04:20And I'm just going, what is going on with this picture?
04:2495.7 The Game.
04:2595.7 The Game is not...
04:26I can't not hear Dan Dibley and Mark Willard...
04:30On 95.7 The Game.
04:31That was a rough day.
04:32And actually...
04:33At the time, at the time, at the time, it was...
04:35It was Steinmetz and Guru, but my point being, it was off.
04:40And I was just stunned.
04:40I was like, what just happened?
04:43Was the world coming to an end?
04:45As it turns out, no.
04:46I couldn't hear you.
04:47We weren't sure at the moment, but as it turns out, no.
04:50Here we are.
04:50And actually, we didn't even miss a minute of our show that day.
04:53But anyway, go ahead, Rich.
04:54Yo, no.
04:55No, no.
04:55You guys did not.
04:56You guys did not.
04:57Right.
04:57But I'm serious.
04:58I almost couldn't keep it together.
05:00Anyway, I just wanted to call in and tell you guys, I don't believe...
05:05I don't believe Giannis is coming here.
05:07And the reason why I don't believe he's coming here is because...
05:10Giannis is going to want to go to a contender.
05:14And I just don't feel like...
05:15The Warriors are a contender.
05:17Now, if you tell me he's going to New York, okay...
05:20If you tell me that he's going to Houston, okay.
05:23Because those are contenders.
05:25Okay, but I'm sorry.
05:27Steph is the ingredient...
05:30But they need more.
05:31And if Giannis goes there, okay, now you got...
05:35You got all these different personalities.
05:36And you honestly believe it.
05:37They're all going to jail together.
05:39Simply...
05:40Because Giannis is there.
05:41And Steph is there.
05:42Well...
05:43Okay, I just don't...
05:44Well...
05:45I look at Draymond Green in the mix.
05:50He's like, no.
05:51No.
05:52That one worries me too.
05:53And Rich, thank you so much.
05:54We were...
05:55We will never not be on the radio ever again, we promise.
05:57Unless we are.
05:59But...
05:59We'll just...
06:00Call Rich next time and do a live show.
06:01Yeah.
06:02Like a three-way call.
06:03I think you should have just driven over there.
06:04No doubt.
06:05Done it in his driveway, but...
06:06The whole thing about them not being a contender, I think about it from...
06:10Giannis' standpoint, and if I'm Giannis, I am the contender.
06:13Exactly.
06:14And that's the way they...
06:15I think, what did Steph Curry just say last week?
06:17If I'm on the court, I always feel like we got a chance.
06:20All of us are like, not really, but like, yeah, Steph, go get them.
06:25You know?
06:25This is not Miles Garrett with the Browns, where, okay, you're the best player at your...
06:30position, the most important position, but we need 21 other guys to actually be decent.
06:34Right?
06:34There's...
06:35There's also no guarantee you go to Houston.
06:37Kevin Durant is also old, and it's been a...
06:40long time since he's been associated with a top-four seed, and if you go to New York...
06:45The problem there is it really hoses the Bucs.
06:48I'm sorry, but the Bucs...
06:50To me, if I'm the Bucs, I'm hanging up on New York, because what they're going to offer...
06:55for you is established players, not young players, and they've got no draft...
07:00capital to throw your way.
07:02What they want to give you is Carl Anthony Towns.
07:04What the...
07:05What the hell does that do for the Bucs?
07:06It's expensive?
07:08OG Ananobi?
07:10Now you're going to win some games they need to tank.
07:12Yeah.
07:12They don't want expensive, established...
07:15It's the last thing they want.
07:17Yep.
07:17They might take one for salary...
07:20rematching purposes only, and then all of the attachments are what they're actually after.
07:25And that's what the Warriors have.
07:27Yes, it'd be great if they had a...
07:30better, young, blue-chip player that they could throw in there.
07:32They don't, but...
07:35The Bucs do like Kaminga, and they do have that.
07:39Which is nice.
07:40You got that going for you, which is nice.
07:41But, you know, I don't know how much Kaminga would go in...
07:45and really help them win this year.
07:47And like you said, they don't really want to win.
07:49They want to go out...
07:50out there and get younger and get draft picks and see if they can't win the lottery and
07:54kind of do what...
07:55Dallas did, you trade your generational superstar, and then...
08:00you win the lottery, and for Milwaukee, you would get DeBansa out of BYU.
08:05And I don't know how much A.J. DeBansa you've watched, but the kid looks to be the real deal.
08:09He's a...
08:10phenomenal score at all three levels, so...
08:12It really does.
08:12If you're any of these NBA teams, just...
08:15get me in the lottery, so you're saying there's a chance?
08:17Like, Dallas had a 1.2% chance last year.
08:20And they won the lottery.
08:21And it worked, yeah.
