Transcript
00:00morning boy did i miss a lot last week holy smokes when i go on vacation i make sure everything
00:05happens while i'm gone you're gonna have teams sending you on vacation joe because it's only
00:10good news too the only thing that didn't happen is like they should i was waiting for lebron to
00:15get traded here so that's coming something is it coming i don't know sounds like tim hardaway is uh
00:24that that's that's a priority he grew up with the high school in dade county so i could see that
00:29happening like if i'm gonna be a role player going back home um he's had a hell of a career
00:35what is
00:36he 33 34 years old now yeah i remember talking to you how odd how neat would that be you're
00:42playing
00:42on the court where your dad's jersey's hanging from the rafters that'd be pretty cool i'll tell you
00:47what man i when we talk about the great heat teams and i know it's about winning championships i
00:52very where after watching the undefeated team and winning those championships and then going to
00:57superbowls and not winning it's different don't get me wrong but i thought timmy hardaway and alonzo
01:02morning and those teams were as much fun to watch as anybody and i know they came up short not
01:08during
01:08the michael jordan time yeah jordan and the knicks and between the two yeah we got knocked out with
01:14them and knocked down drag out and guys pulling guys legs and that was that was the best rivalry in
01:19sports at the time the knicks and the heat yeah it's uh it's crazy stuff but uh so so anyway
01:26we'll we'll find out and then big bob's got to make a decision here real quickly i don't know if
01:32they're gonna be able to there was a report i was just looking at the break there was a report
01:35last
01:35night uh nhl report um that he's he's going to go to free agency okay so we'll see god bless
01:42you
01:42hey i got nothing bad to say about big bob he gave us some great years if he does leave
01:48uh man he he was he was and by the way talk about two two careers here they couldn't wait
01:55to get rid
01:56of him we're playing playoff games and he's not even suiting up remember tampa bay they moved him
02:00to the third goal he was so bad he comes down and and they get some guys in front of
02:06him paul maurice
02:07and his new system comes in and he's different guy and plays unbelievable in huge games i remember
02:14asking paul maurice why the change is just because of the system and he said you know it's kind of
02:21you know paul maurice gives always gives interesting answers and he talked about you know just by
02:27degrees the trust he a goalie could have with his teammates and everything and that builds confidence
02:32and it all stacks on top of each other all of a sudden he's one of the best goalies in
02:36hockey again
02:37yeah yeah and uh so now the contract's up and but uh he's got to understand man if you're staying
02:43you can't you can't have it both ways with the salary cap you just you can't you've had a bunch
02:49of guys
02:50you know we talked about after the parade they got all those guys to come back everybody took a little
02:55less um and and now he's gonna make a decision but if he decides he wants to make a lot
03:01more money
03:02and it makes sense that's what free agency is go for it yeah there's such a gulf at least as
03:09of
03:10but when you get there three weeks ago when i talked to somebody that there's such a gulf between
03:16his does he his wants three years 42 million and what the panthers wanted matt that it just sounded
03:24like okay they're moving on hey i this go for every guy man take the money you get you get
03:30one chance
03:30in life to make this kind of money and in most cases go for it but if you're going someplace
03:37and
03:37ends up being a bad team and with that bad team usually bad teams you start playing poorly too it
03:43starts
03:43to affect you whether it's your fault or not and you're getting booed while you're going home
03:47getting big fat checks is great but that's part of this i still i still hope look it can all
03:54change
03:54in a phone call right yeah we know we know how this goes i i would hope he stays and
03:59hope so too but
04:00he's been great he's been great nobody says anything bad about big bob he's he's he's great his work
04:07ethic he had stories first one there in the morning goes through his routine hard worker all the
04:13things and hey you don't hear much from these guys man they're not playing and then you see him at
04:19but he he looked like he enjoyed as much as anybody um over the last especially not last year but
04:26the
04:26the three years before on uh everything they were able to do getting the stanley cup finals three years
04:31and winning two championships but um so we got this whole thing's going to be really interesting and
04:38the andrew wiggins situation and what's going to happen there norman powell people are asking what's
04:44more important wiggins or norman powell what's your number one priority if wiggins opts out they're
04:50going to make him an offer for less money in more years can you imagine the variations of the roster
04:56and salary cap going through through andy ellisberg the the salary cap maven and riley and spolster their
05:04minds right now okay well they're going to have other options so they're going to be some team
05:08wiggins a really good player yeah you agree right i'm not saying superstar but he's really good player
05:13he's one of those players who's who's good and the difference between good and greatest consistency
05:19he just doesn't have those consistently great he can have a great game but then he'll follow it up
05:24with two or three okay but but yeah he's good with the warriors he was in a perfect position he
05:30was like
05:31the fourth best player on their team but in that he almost a personality with bam and yannis that
05:36you need great defensive player yeah and you put him on if you put him out there with yannis bam
05:44davion mitchell all they're one of the top they might be the top defensive team in the league yeah
05:49listen pal larson's going to get after you mr hustle and so these guys are going to have to make
05:55some
05:55decisions wiggins got a contract it's a player option so he controls it and norman powell's going to
06:01have some teams i'm getting well he's 33 34 now but coming off we're almost 22 points a game
06:06played 58 games missed some games but uh can they put a team together to contend next year
06:13yeah they're gonna win some games a lot of games no could they contend for the east to win the
06:19east
06:19do you do i don't know yeah that's what i'm not trying to cop out on you two weeks will
06:25be about
06:25right let's see what they can do with it because they don't have a lot i think you know there's
06:30the
06:30aprons and all this and the and the salary cap i think they have 18 million to spend before it
06:35gets
06:36really and well that's why they're trying to free up some more money with uh hoping wiggins will will
06:41opt out and then opt back in with a contract if they can come to some type of agreement i
06:48don't know
06:48it really comes down how much he's going to play so do you do you want to play here is
06:53there some
06:53other places he wants to go uh did you see what they're trying to load up with speaking of that
06:59at golden state my first love in life growing up going states trying to get uh lebron and his
07:08sidekick with they don't want lebron too yeah oh they've been trying to get him for a year they've
07:13been trying to get on that thing and and also a glass with washington the glass man they're trying
07:19to get uh trying to get him too there's there's a team he won't last 10 games i was going
07:24to say
07:25there's a team that's uh just trying to get one more year right if they could get jimmy that's all
07:29they're trying to do and obviously curry and i gotta tell you about about choke watching jimmy
07:34butler's outfit in the columbia game columbia now he's columbian now he's pro columbia

08:57some things

09:50vegetables try hey man so while all this other stuff was going on and uh with the panthers getting
10:00the kachuk brothers and and now we got to find a goalie and yannis and what's going to happen with
10:07some of the other pieces were here last year they're going to resign they're going to go somewhere else
10:10they got other offers the old marlins just turned on here in june they're 18 and six even with the
10:17two to one loss yesterday they end up taking two or three from the cards they're 44 and 40
10:25going out to play colorado for four games good chance by the way just hit a fly ball it's a
10:29home
10:30run usually you're in great shape there get some numbers going i could tell you some of those guys
10:35going don't take me out in this one right i can hear stowers going i don't need any rest days
10:39i want
10:39to i want to play this no no i'm good i want to i want to play this is uh
10:43this is a good one and
10:44then so they got a 10 game home stand excuse me road trip and then uh four in colorado and
10:51three
10:51out in uh sacramento anyway we um we got to get caught up here we're running a little bit late
10:56once
10:57again free agency man free agency and wait i love it i hope big bob stays man i you know
11:04some guys
11:05when they take off you're going man i got nothing when somebody and you're going he did
11:10what big bob's giving us if he goes i'm not going to be mad right he's one of those guys
11:15you're like
11:16hey man look gave us everything i don't think you get angry at that it's a little mystifying
11:24the gulf of financials terms between the team and him but the question for the the panthers and you
11:33know bill zito has a plan is okay who's the goalie they don't have a goalie on the right on
11:39the roster
11:39if he's both guys both guys yeah so but obviously they got a plan because they got a plan for
11:45everything but it'll be interesting to see what it is who wants to come down here and play in this
11:50loaded system he wants to win a stanley who wants to contend for a stanley cup for the next three
11:54or
11:54four it works paul murray system works and oh by the way all these guys most of them have been
12:01on the
12:01stanley cup teams and they play really well in front of you when they're all healthy we got some
12:06great defensemen everybody coming back we got would we get an extra month or two of uh by not going
12:12to
12:12the playoffs got some time to heal up here and now you got brady chuck to to and that re
12:18-energizes the
12:19whole roster when you see the you see that guy coming in it's not like they'll be stale you know
12:26they got new new they're gonna be hungry man they're gonna be hungry all right hey we got to
