00:01you know what's in two days
00:07well it'll be
00:09July 9th
00:12there is something
00:14I don't know
00:16you're going to know it as soon as I said
00:20the Detroit Pistons
00:22play their first summer league game
00:25I'm not falling for it this year
00:27I'm not
00:29sure you are
00:30I'm not
00:30you should
00:32I'm not going to
00:33why
00:34because I do every single year
00:37and I come away from summer league basketball
00:40drawing wild conclusions
00:43and I'm not going to do it this year
00:46and I mean it this time
00:48well you can say that all you want
00:51it's okay to get drawn into it
00:53it's fun
00:54oh I get drawn into it
00:55I got to remember
00:56I do get drawn into it
00:58but I got to remember
00:59it's fake feedback
01:00yeah well it's
01:01it's like
01:02the Quebec League hockey stats
01:04Quebec Major Junior
01:06yeah
01:06Quebec Major Junior offensive stats
01:08they look fantastic
01:09but it's all fake
01:10it doesn't matter
01:10I mean it's not fake
01:12it's just
01:12in the grand scheme of things
01:13when they move to the next level
01:15it's not the same
01:17nope
01:17oh that's awesome
01:19you had 174 points last year
01:21that's crazy good
01:22what in the next next year
01:23you go play the AHL
01:25and you have 41 points
01:26you could have convinced yourself
01:27that Anthony Mantha
01:28was going to break
01:29all of Wayne Gretzky scoring records
01:30sure
01:31but
01:33I'm not
01:34I'm not
01:34I'm not going to fall
01:35for summer league results
01:36you went with Anthony Mantha
01:37I did
01:38I remember following him
01:40in the Quebec Major Junior League
01:41and us talking about him
01:42for a bunch of years
01:43it wasn't a bunch of years
01:44but for a bunch of shows
01:47thinking he was going to be something
01:48but
01:49he had a great year last year
01:51did he score
01:52did he have 174 points
01:54he did not
01:54but he had 33 goals
01:56which was his
01:58it's a
01:58it's a career high in the NHL
02:00yeah his
02:01so I have his
02:02Quebec League numbers
02:03do you have them in front of you
02:04I do
02:05yeah
02:05the first year
02:07he played
02:08in the Quebec League
02:10he had 63
02:11in 63 points
02:12he had 50
02:13in 63 games
02:13he had 51 points
02:14the next year
02:1567 games
02:1689 points
02:17than his last year
02:19in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League
02:2157 games
02:22he had 57 goals
02:23and 63 assists
02:24for 120 points
02:25there you go
02:26add another 38 points
02:27in 24 playoff games
02:30yeah
02:30the Quebec Major Junior
02:31is to hockey
02:32what summer league
02:33is to basketball
02:34for me
02:34and I'm not going to fall for it
02:36not this time
02:37this time
02:38I mean it too
02:39alright
02:40Chris McCoskey
02:40did a story today
02:41in the Detroit News
02:43beat writer
02:44that covers
02:45the Detroit Tigers
02:47about how this trade deadline
02:48actually does shape up
02:49to be very
02:50very tricky one
02:51for the Detroit
02:52the Detroit Tigers
02:54he asked this question
02:58do we really think
02:59that 500
03:00is the benchmark
03:01for getting into the playoffs
03:03do you think
03:04that when it's all said
03:04and done
03:05that the last playoff team
03:06will be a 500 team
03:07no
03:07I think it'll be
03:09slightly better
03:09slightly better
03:11so what
03:12like 80
03:1384 wins
03:1484 wins
03:16so then you ask yourself
03:17the question
03:19can the Tigers
03:20go 44 and 28
03:21the rest of the way
03:25because that
03:25that would put them
03:26at 84 wins
03:28I mean
03:29as he wrote
03:30if you think
03:3181 wins
03:31500 record
03:32will get you
03:33into the playoffs
03:33why wouldn't you
03:34roll the dice
03:34on going 41 and 31
03:35the rest of the way
03:36with Scooble
03:40and
03:40I mean
03:42we all know
03:43you have to make
03:43a decision
03:43in 22 games
03:45but
03:47there's
03:47some truth
03:48to this
03:50and I've been
03:51thinking about this
03:51a lot lately
03:55early on
03:56I said
03:57hey
03:58in the Dylan Larkin
03:59saga
03:59I said
03:59one thing
04:00we need to consider
04:00is that he may
04:01come back
04:03that they might
04:03not be able
04:04to find a trade
04:05and he may
04:05come back
04:07and this is
04:08something I brought
04:09up as a talking
04:09point
04:10that I think
04:11it's a possibility
04:12but not a great
04:12possibility
04:13but let's not
04:14forget
04:14that nothing
04:15may materialize
04:16and he may
04:17they may be
04:18forced
04:18to bring him
04:19back
04:20and I've gone
04:21from offering
04:21that up
04:22as a bit
04:22of a
04:23hey
04:24just don't
04:24forget
04:25that this
04:25is one
04:25possible
04:26outcome
04:26to now
04:26thinking
04:27that that's
04:27a flip
04:27of the
04:28coin
04:28that's
04:29that's
04:29where I'm
04:30at
04:31I think
04:32even the
04:32people that
04:33called me
04:33an idiot
04:34at the
04:34beginning
04:34and there
04:35were plenty
04:35of you
04:36maybe some
04:37of them
04:37would now
04:38acknowledge
04:38okay there's
04:38a better
04:39than a 0%
04:40chance that
04:40Dylan Larkin
04:41will be back
04:42some of you
04:42won't
04:43some of you
04:43still think
04:44I'm an
04:44idiot
04:45but
04:47I am
04:48starting to
04:48think it's
04:49a 50-50
04:49proposition
04:50that the
04:50Tigers are
04:51actually going
04:51to buy
04:52and it's
04:53not
04:55I think
04:56that there
04:56is a
04:57better
04:57chance
04:58scary
04:59chance
04:59that the
05:01godfather
05:01offer for
05:02Scooble
05:02is never
05:03really going
05:03to materialize
05:05you shut
05:06your mouth
05:07well
05:07we have
05:09these wild
05:10dreams
05:11and I
05:12don't think
05:13Scott
05:13Harris
05:15if you're
05:16in Scott
05:16Harris's
05:17shoes
05:18you can't
05:19just take
05:20any offer
05:23you can't
05:24no but
05:25what you
05:25will have
05:26are multiple
05:26teams that
05:27are asking
05:27for the
05:28commodity
05:29you hope
05:30that's how
05:30you create
05:31the best
05:31market
05:32I think
05:32there will
05:33be multiple
05:33teams
05:33the question
05:34is
05:34that's how
05:35you get
05:35the offer
05:36to get
05:36as good
05:36as it
05:36can get
05:37at some
05:37point
05:38someone's
05:38just going
05:38to say
05:39no
05:39you know
05:39if you
05:40get the
05:40Yankees
05:40the Dodgers
05:42and you
05:42know
05:43whoever else

05:45team out
05:45there that
05:45wants to
05:46get in
05:47there
05:49and
