00:00hey what what'd you guys make of the Giannis I sent you guys the article the Giannis comments
00:05uh he gone on on Friday night but even Doc Rivers is like hey I don't know what's going on
00:11here
00:12but this can't be out in the public yeah he he gone and then I I read something over the
00:17weekend
00:17that maybe Doc takes a front office job with Milwaukee so that they have a new head coach
00:22Doc fails upwards it's unbelievable this guy he's still coach he's in the Hall of Fame
00:28he he hasn't gotten out of the the second round since the 09 Celtics team that lost in the finals
00:34to Kobe doesn't matter he gets a job everywhere like I don't understand what's going on so good
00:39and uncut Jim this is this is an argument I saw that the article you sent this is an argument
00:44that y'all
00:45had Giannis is trying so hard to do this nicely he's trying but Hawk said he doesn't want to be
00:54the bad guy he is upset and he's trying so hard to not upset Milwaukee fans but he needs to
01:03get the
01:04hell out of Milwaukee but wait a second it's not that he's trying like imagine if you're Giannis
01:09I want to play I want to play basketball for this team that I've given my career to like that's
01:18not
01:18someone trying like that's someone doing something that we've all that we've all asked players in the
01:25NBA to do all season long which is play like get out there and play and Giannis has got to
01:31be beside
01:32himself going yeah we're not in the playoffs I want to be out there playing on the surface yes on
01:38the
01:38here's what happens every time with Giannis you don't believe him because you just for whatever
01:43reason you decide whatever he says and whatever he does you decide it's not truthful okay but let
01:51me let me tell you why on the surface okay Giannis is trying to look like the good guy hey
01:56I want to
01:56play ball you guys are all upset about teams tanking I want to play ball well hold on a second
02:00hold on a second what is he most upset about that the Bucks haven't put enough talent around him
02:07right the Bucks are eliminated from postseason contention because he was unavailable for a lot
02:12of the seasons hurt because of injuries hurt now they're trying to set themselves up to better their
02:18draft pick and not win meaningless games which would help put a better roster around Giannis
02:24wait a second we can't crush Utah for pulling players in the fourth quarter to set themselves up
02:32for a better pick and when Giannis says hey I want to be out there playing we crush him for
02:36doing the
02:37other thing like that's that's nonsense that stop like just look at it in a vacuum with blinders on
02:44you have a player who wants to play that's not a bad trait he only wants to play Hawk he
02:50only wants to
02:51play because he wants to play with his brother who they signed to satiate his constant need to have
02:58is it possible he wants to play because he wants to be out there playing and he's healthy and he
03:03enjoys playing basketball and just just being the judge that it's a lot of you said he only wants to
03:08play because to Hawk's point how do you know he only wants to play with his brother you're making that
03:14up no I'm not he said it he said everybody's saying I don't want to play I want to play
03:19with my brother
03:20they just signed them if you don't think I want to go out there and play with my brother on
03:24the
03:24basketball court you're crazy those are his words right but what's wrong but what's wrong with that
03:29and that's not that he's not saying the only reason I want to play that's why he wants to play
03:34no no no you are picking and choosing because for whatever reason you love this narrative
03:39that whatever said whatever Giannis says he really means the opposite so so so you're building
03:45narratives I'm not the narrative it's true obvious to anybody to anybody who actually is paying
03:51attention to this which is why people not just me but people who are frustrated with Giannis Antetokounmpo
03:57he's upset that the team hasn't put a good roster around him that even though they've tried the team
04:02hasn't right and now now they're trying with the draft coming up to better their situation via draft
04:10they have a chance to better their lottery odds and get a top five pick by losing more games because
04:16their season is over if you were to play he hurts their chances at building a better roster
04:22and he's crushing them publicly for it but and because he wants to play with his brother which
04:28he admitted he wants to play with his brother how could a player just think about the front office
04:33publicly publicly come out and crush the front office for not putting a better roster around
04:39because the only way that you can get better is if I don't play like figure out a better system
04:45front office the only way you can get better is if I don't play so again it's on my shoulders
04:52like
04:52no go do your jobs and get better players around both sides there you go Hawk a basketball player that's
04:59the top five in the world wants to play basketball and also wants to play basketball with his brother
05:03and you want to lose games because you can get a better draft pick why don't you figure out a
05:10way
05:10to put one of the top five basketball players in the world around talent that you can utilize
05:16Giannis Adesokounmpo and Salui Adesokounmpo I don't know his brother's name why don't that's your fault
05:22they did he wants to play basketball Solana let this man play basketball because we're going to complain
05:29if anybody else wants to take days off on back-to-backs first of all I'm not complaining
05:35about the Utah Jazz and and the other teams I just want to make that clear stop it Jimmy go
05:40back
05:40go back to the games that Utah was pulling players in the fourth quarter and pull the sound of Solana
05:47and everyone on this show saying they're making a laughingstock of the league no on the contrary I was
05:53saying the NBA the NBA has an issue because fans are upset but the reality is if I'm if I'm
06:00the Utah
06:01Jazz or I'm the the the whatever teams are tanking the Washington Wizards and the only way a small
06:08market team can get better is through the draft and these rules allow for it these are the parameters
06:13set by the NBA why wouldn't I do my best to better my position through the draft I totally understand
06:19it
06:19is it good for the game is it good for for the consumer no those are two different conversations
06:23but I totally understand an organization within the rules which is what they're doing tanking because
06:29why wouldn't you tank if you have no chance of winning which is what the Utah Jazz and the teams
06:35at
06:35the very bottom are doing and the rules are going to change because it totally waters down the product
06:40but again those are two different conversations and yeah I understand what you're saying go get me
06:45players well guess what they did they got you Damian Lillard still in his prime did you win no two
06:50years it was an unmitigated disaster and then they went out and they tried to get you another big did
06:57you win no this team was terrible this year even though the big they got Solana Miles Turner who's
07:03Miles Turner well yeah why are you why are why do you call out Giannis and not call out the
07:09Milwaukee
07:10Buck's organization for me we're gonna put you over the top of Miles Turner and baby tooth Chris
07:16Middleton you're telling me that getting Damian Lillard wasn't a good front office I'm not and I
07:23know he had blood clots whatever happened in his career he tried and he couldn't play but that's
07:30why do you attack Giannis and not the mill the Milwaukee Buck organizations the problem
07:36way over Giannis I would love to have Giannis and Pat Riley it's so misaligned the way you look at
07:43what Giannis does so so Giannis I just want to make make sure I have this right Giannis is the
07:49bad guy
07:49because he wants to be out on the court playing for the Bucs and the fans and he gets the
07:56added bonus
07:56of playing with his brothers Giannis is not the bad guy for wanting to play Giannis is the bad guy
08:02for crushing the front office and the organization publicly without having conversations behind
08:10closed doors with the powers that be and making it seem like they're trying to keep him from playing
08:17but strictly because they don't want him to play but they are wait it's not that they're trying to
08:22make him sound like that and how do you know they didn't have those conversations behind closed doors
08:26he said it like am I crazy or did you guys not read the article he said I didn't even
08:31know you
08:31sent us an article okay I read the article he literally said it hey I'm warming up and then
08:37I'm being told I can't play nobody's told me why nobody's told me anything so yeah he's crushing
08:43why didn't they have a conversation with him because it's obvious and you're killing him for not having a
08:49conversation with him it sounds like they should have had a conversation with him because if you're a
08:53front office if you're a front office you're trying to better your NBA team's position no matter what
09:00the situation doesn't sound like anybody spoke to Giannis about it that's their fault not his
09:06Solana Wade needed Shaq Wade needed LeBron right Jordan needed Pippen Giannis had Chris Middleton
09:18and Miles Turner who has failed each other has Giannis failed the Bucs or the Bucs has failed Giannis
09:26for a decade oh you're saying you're saying the Bucs building that loss for in 2021 in 2021 five
09:33seasons ago the Milwaukee Bucs organization gets zero credit for that championship run zero credit is
09:40what you're saying without Giannis they would have been a playing team no but who Chris Middleton
09:48Chris Middleton's baby teeth hadn't came out yet bro be honest Solana Middleton was a really good
09:55team it was a really good they want a title but Giannis is the fuel Giannis is the diesel behind
10:03everything that the Milwaukee Bucs we wouldn't talk about the Milwaukee Bucs if Giannis out of the group
10:07wasn't there so so when they got through holiday Giannis is the problem over the the organization
10:14right now with this debate no it's obvious that the organization and Giannis so why do you give
10:20such a hard time they reach their end because I'm reading the the comments from Giannis right now
10:25and I laugh at Giannis on to the group but in other words when he says I don't know why
10:30they took me out
10:31of shoot around or why I'm not playing why do you default to Giannis should have a conversation
10:37why don't you default to man the organization doesn't seem to be communicating with the guy
10:44who delivered them a title because I don't believe that the organization hasn't communicated this to
10:50Giannis okay so you're just again choosing not to believe Giannis you're just choosing at this point
10:57in this in this particular no no no not in this particular situation in every situation you don't
11:02believe Giannis ever dad that's about right we got to do a new segment Giannis a lie well only Solana
11:10believes it though come on we're running out of time we gotta think of it we gotta take a break
11:13it's
11:13not only Solana anybody that's been following the Milwaukee Bucs tobacco for the past 18 to 20 months
11:18knows what I'm talking about the true ball knowers out there know what I'm talking about
11:22and and and I'm having an argument with two people who didn't even read the article that I
11:27sent them that I brought up article I was on the plane I had time by the way Giannis you'll
11:38love
