00:00and boy um man stuff has happened stuff has happened lebron james look what brian winhor
00:08said wasn't speculating what trajan might be up to right i don't i haven't exactly heard what
00:15brian winhor said i read a quote that we had on a web story on it and that's that's all's
00:21i know
00:21yeah and i'm intrigued to hear what the cut says yeah i mean he's he's essentially speculating
00:27the trajan might be war chesting to make a run at quiet leonard or maybe lebron james and i'm like
00:34okay this is the inverse of justin verlander
00:41the tigers went out and got a beloved player near the end of their career to come in and help
00:49the pistons would go get a hated player to come in at the end of his career to potentially help
00:57i i don't know how detroit would handle this how do you think detroit would handle lebron james
01:02wearing the red white and blue i think uh initially if there were announcement like that i think people
01:07would would kind of freak out i mean it would be a 50 50 mix and then i think uh
01:11the second you see
01:12him playing on this team if that were to happen i think all those concerns would go away because
01:18look like him or not you can't deny he's a hell of a player he may be the greatest player
01:23in nba
01:24history that's obviously debatable he's certainly in the top five i would say in nba history so he's
01:31still playing at a very high level um would he make sense i mean he makes sense to a degree
01:38i mean he's not a great outside shooter but he is a leader uh he does lots of things you
01:46like he's a
01:46complete player with uh you know passing the basketball rebounding the ball he's a scorer
01:51he does a lot of things it'd be very intriguing but i think initially they're gonna get a lot
01:55of pushback on i don't think the the people are gonna be totally thrilled if that happens but i'd
01:59be stunned if it happened well two four eight five three nine ninety seven ninety seven do you want
02:03this detroit do you want lebron and if not who do you want because trajan's up to something and
02:11you know the the fact that they have war chested this much makes you wonder what that something is
02:17and it's it it feels like he's about to be hyper aggressive and remember he held that press
02:26conference a while ago and didn't really deny he was asked about it to before last summer he said
02:35i don't expect that we'll do anything particularly aggressive this summer he didn't make that kind
02:41of proclamation no we did not which i noted and it made me think hmm hmm now is this a
02:47development
02:48that he's reacting to the market and just seeing what's going on or was this the plan all along don't
02:53know don't particularly i guess it doesn't really matter he moves beef stew who famously tried to murder
03:00lebron on the court at lca and i mean if people don't remember that he it got to the point
03:08where
03:08he kept doing the i'm fine i'm fine i'm fine and then he'd sprint around everybody and run through
03:13the line to try and get lebron oh he's bloodied up he got bloodied up a cheap elbow or whatever
03:19it
03:19was it was thrown at him and uh do you remember him running down the tunnel yes and and everybody
03:24speculating that he's gonna run underneath the stands and come out the other side like he was that
03:29was the moment that beef stew endeared himself to every single piston fan and because it was lebron
03:33because it was lebron now the idea of a beloved player being moved to create cap space potentially
03:41for lebron is just an amazing storyline it's a fantastic storyline it's gonna be fun to watch
03:48again i don't think that'll happen you know there are other players they can go after but the other
03:53players are trade you know that it's not free agent lebron's a free agent so like you don't have to
03:58give up the assets to acquire him but the other side of that is if lebron can call a shot
04:03go
04:03wherever he wants would he come to detroit now there's appeal because it would be trying to win
04:11a championship with a third different team and i think that appeals to him um but are the pistons
04:16the best team for him to go to if he wanted to win that i mean he could try the
04:20kevin durant plan
04:20and just hitch on to the best team in the league and win that way but i'm not sure he
04:26wants to do that
04:26either i mean he might nobody really knows but are there are better options like should he go to
04:32san antonio instead of coming to detroit or should he go to boston instead of come to detroit i don't
04:37i don't know or does he go back to cleveland watching lebron through the years one thing that
04:41he is acutely tuned into is his reputation and his image and given all the criticism that kevin
04:48durant has historically taken i feel as though lebron would be wouldn't want to latch on with
04:56a team i don't think he'd want that kind of smoke that that kevin durant got for just trying to
05:01co-op
05:01somebody else's championship and and so i think he'd want to do it strike out and do it in a
05:07in a
05:08different place now it doesn't mean it's detroit necessarily but but detroit would fit that
05:12detroit would fit that description so 2485399797 hey you right there you would you root for lebron
05:21would you out there root for lebron james do you want to see him in a piston jersey
05:26as brian winhorse simply speculated could be what the pistons are up to we bring in kang our producer
05:34back in our studios kang what do you make of this story well i love the story because i this
05:41is way
05:41more aggressive than i imagine maybe my bar was set really low after the end of the season presser
05:45by langdon but i didn't think they were going to do something too crazy and it looks like they are
05:49preparing themselves to do something not crazy but make a pretty decent move here and uh as far as
05:55lebron is concerned i i would want lebron here i would cheer for lebron if he were here that can't
06:00be the only move though lebron and somebody else but uh if if that somebody else is quiet leonard yes
06:06all
06:06day please if that's somebody else's you know yeah the big name like that gator yeah if he's he's
06:12making these moves it looks like he's setting himself up to do something these aren't just like you
06:16know yeah going to accounting and trying to move around some numbers he's moving around the numbers
06:21for a reason and i think they're going to get a real second threat alongside cade which excites me
06:25to the fullest this is exactly what i was hoping for this offseason yeah if that's the what if it's
06:32a
06:32big player absolute number two next decade i mean it sounds awesome and i think we all want that
06:38but is there something in the back of your mind that says it's it's going to be someone like powell
06:43who would be an excellent addition to this team but it's not that big splash move where you create
06:51all this cap space seemingly yeah i think powell would be like my floor that'd be disappointing he's
06:57like like the floor like they have to do with something at least like that but now my dreams have
07:01gotten bigger with you know the national guys the national guys always see what other teams they
07:06think other teams should do but what we when you live it like we do we're inside we're like i
07:10don't
07:10know if they're really going to do something like that but now they seem to be aligning you know
07:14where where we want something big now the national guys are saying they should do something big and
07:18then when you have shams and windhorse reporting like hey you know stewart's got moved because just to
07:24get his money off the books they're not just trying to save money they're saving money for something
07:28you know and i think that something might be pretty big and i don't know if trajan's going to get
07:32the
07:32job done and you know get a big name next to cade but i think he's going for which i
07:36think is more
07:37than i thought was going to happen to be honest with you all right 248-539-9797 detroit fans do
07:44you
07:45want lebron james in a piston uniform if not what is the big move that you would like to see
07:50them make
07:51it became clear to me last night that something was possible when it was reported that the lakers
07:58basically blocked the pistons for austin reeves that that's that's why the lakers moved and and
08:05matched the price that they could pay for austin reeves not the price they could pay for austin reeves
08:10they thought the pistons were going to go we're going to go after him and what i kept wondering about
08:16was okay you can fit durin under the cap and get a big signing if you can if you can
08:24do that fantastic
08:25now they might of course go over the cap like in the in this league you can and tom gore
08:30is a you
08:31know seems a committed owner that money wouldn't stop him but that reeves flare that came out last
08:36night then we were sitting around talking about oh okay so the pistons were getting ready to go big
08:43and if they couldn't get austin reeves what would they do what was their next move what was their
08:49next plan could it be lebron james 248-539-9797 it's karshen anderson love to hear from you
08:55phone calls ticket text do you want to see him in a red white and blue karshen anderson 971
09:00anderson is a the one anderson's now at the right time is how in the world we're using a red
09:00black and blue karshen anderson
09:00anderson what if you go in the red white and blue karshen anderson that i'm gonna get this is the
09:00perfect
