00:00like we probably all know people like this in our lives maybe we maybe we are those people
00:05in our lives you ever know the person who um let's say especially this happens in dating life
00:11could be young could be old or whatever you ever uh you ever be with be around somebody who's a
00:16little too picky they find something wrong with every single option out there no doubt okay
00:23those people end up alone you know what i mean there's no perfect people like even when they
00:29feel perfect at the beginning you're gonna argue with them they're gonna annoy you that's that's
00:36life like there's no there's no perfect fit that doesn't come on i think about the person at the uh
00:43in the produce aisle at safeway and i'll see you in the aisles and you see somebody who is hovering
00:48over the cantaloupe and you pick up the cantaloupe and you squeeze it and you look and then you end
00:53up picking up like 27 cantaloupe because you want the best ripest most ready to go cantaloupe
01:00and just pick up the lope dog do you know actually i'm so glad you brought that up do you
01:06know how you
01:08check a cantaloupe like i'm really good at checking an orange i'm really good at checking grapes
01:14uh cantaloupe i see people knock on them yes absolutely i'm like did it answer you gotta
01:23tap it i'm ripe like what how did i knock on what am i listening for it's not the listening
01:29it's the
01:30relative softness and then it's also the smell so you gotta tap it and sniff it that's that's not
01:40appropriate to do at a grocery store we're talking about cantaloupe i know it's a fact
01:44yeah so we usually it's too aromatic that means it's gone too far right exactly yeah that's what
01:50okay we get our our uh cantaloupe from a local farmer's market and my wife will go in and say
01:56pick me out one that's ready tomorrow and then the lady will pick one up and like hit it a
02:01couple times
02:02and she's like yep this is the one and i mean i don't really get it but yes to your
02:08point about
02:08pickiness some people are super like overly picky about everything that's my question about the
02:15warriors right now that's my question and uh you know granny and i a few weeks ago got into a
02:20big old
02:21jalen brown fight probably people had to text guru and say are they okay right um mark on mark crime
02:27things like that i you know jalen brown there's two pieces of this for me i'm very confused about
02:34jalen brown i'm super confused i still am i don't understand why the celtics were so hell bent on
02:40getting rid of him i don't understand why paul george and two first round picks was the return
02:45i don't understand why if that was the return the rest of the nba wasn't in on this as well
02:51and then when people talk about the warriors and jalen brown apparently that conversation wasn't
02:56happening this offseason it was happening back in february and in february it was going to be
03:01jimmy butler and four first round picks that's yeah that sounds a little steep to me very steep
03:06especially if it's paul george in two ones um but that like that's question number one for me
03:13this guy was phenomenal last year with no jason tatum for much of the year and then the celtics are
03:21just
03:21like we gotta get rid of him like i can someone explain this to me normally when somebody when a
03:28star
03:28gets traded we get we get the reasoning behind it i still sit here today not fully understanding
03:34why jalen brown had to go but that's we don't always get the actual reasoning like dallas like
03:40luka donchich he drinks and he smokes cigarettes like yeah he's a big fatty i mean really is that
03:45is that what it is he goes to la and he's not fat anymore and he's still really good you
03:50know you're
03:51right i'm not saying that we're always going to get to know but i'm going to move forward in life
03:55still confused as to why the boston celtics decided that jalen brown was like hot potato
04:04guy get rid of the don't just get it out of here okay fine that's piece one piece two
04:12if the warriors wanted to say no because of the price i got no issue but if the warriors wanted
04:18to
04:18say no because they were worried about 2030 i do have an issue that's not where your head should be
04:25it's just not where your head should be that should be a piece of your thinking but i would argue
04:32that if
04:33that's the thinking then your head is in the wrong place and that's where um offensive to steph curry
04:41lives in my opinion like that's that's not okay if your thought process is we really could do
04:48something special right now and yes there could be a pitfall down the road um and then that potential
04:56maybe pitfall three years from now is what stops you from acting i don't like that that doesn't feel
05:05like the right way to do it to me it doesn't but it could be yeah i mean more than
05:09that it might be
05:10something about the the calf strain the achilles tendonitis that he had last year in march and
05:16that might be something that you would be concerned about the price and you know four first round picks
05:21feels like too much i agree the other piece that really strikes me is the whole idea about
05:26organizational consensus and it feels like right now they don't have a lot of organizational
05:32consensus and i can't get beyond draft night and i know this is not really a thing but you're about
05:39to make the pick for yaksa lendenborg and we go live to the draft room and joe lakob is very
05:44animated
05:45with mike dunleavy over something and what we found out that it was make the pick like hurry up and
05:50make
05:50the pick just make the pick the idea of ownership being overly involved in what the basketball people are
05:57doing that to me reeks of a lack of organizational consensus remember he texted steine we're in
06:03alignment right steine got the text we are aligned aligned in what i don't know right but their their
06:10behavior suggests that they are steve kerr signed back that's all he was looking for was actually
06:16alignment right but that was the word all year are we aligned and then he did and then you know
06:23mike dunleavy ha ha ha in the press conference ah joe's just you know joe's just barking he just
06:29wanted us to make the pick and i told him to relax we're gonna make the pick and right you
06:34know they
06:35all sound like their behavior suggests alignment so the alignment is i don't know what last year was
06:41really not great we were the 10 seed and uh we're all aligned in that we want to run it
06:46back
06:47either we get lebron or we're just gonna run it back hands in the middle alignment on three
06:52one two three alignment like well i don't know listen this is it it is i'm not gonna say that
06:59it's easy to figure out you know like i i think about it this way you you you own a
07:05home um and i
07:07don't know if this was a part of your thought process at the time or not uh but those out
07:12there
07:12who have saved money year after year after year and maybe you're budgeting for kids to go to college
07:19or whatever like there is that thought of is now the time i've got all this i got this bucket
07:27of
07:27money that i've spent my whole life saving do i pounce now is now the right time or do i
07:33wait that
07:34can be tricky yep that can and i feel like that's the game the warriors are playing but what we're
07:40doing
07:40is i think we're running the risk now of being risk averse which is is you're like okay we've got
07:49all the picks we've got all the space when is the right time to pounce and if the warriors have
07:57organizationally decided that the right time to pounce is not until steph leaves well that's gonna
08:03upset everybody yeah that's just gonna upset everybody including him i i would think and so
08:08that's i think that's the fear and that's the question we all have and it's very it's very hard
08:14to answer because it's not like they haven't tried to pounce but when they try to pounce the
08:20answer's no and when the answer's yes they decide not to pounce that whether that's right or wrong
08:26that is what has happened so far right and i guess you could be a little bit more risk averse
08:31when you
08:32have the resume that they have and you mentioned like buying a house and i lived in the city with
08:37my
08:37first wife and we had a 600 square foot apartment and we had a almost three month old baby rolling
08:43who was loud 600 square feet three month old and it's like you know what we need to get out
08:49of here
08:50pretty soon because this kid is wearing us out and then 9 11 happens and i told my ex-wife
08:56i said you
08:57know what now it's probably not the best time but 9 11 like am i right this whole thing could
09:03like
09:03it could be over so you know we rolled the dice we bought a house in oakland and my ex
09:08-wife is still
09:08there and so it worked out but we didn't have four championships and so if you're joe lacob like you've
09:14stacked chips and you've hung banners and so you can be a little bit more conservative i think
09:20your thing's worth 10 billion right but it's tough like it is tough fan for sure or for everybody you
09:27know somebody's over there yelling yolo come on let's do it you're like yeah but oh god
09:33okay but achilles and 31 and is he the right guy to handle this why does boston want to get
09:41rid
09:41of him so bad like i get all the questions i'm not here banging on the table saying jalen brown
09:47was
09:48definitely the one that you should have gotten it stings a little bit when it feels like don't know
09:54if this is true but it feels like let's say they had gotten jalen brown would they now also have
10:00lebron james i i don't know i don't know that to be true it certainly feels like they would have
10:06had a better shot if they had done that as opposed to having jimmy butler so that's a little salt
10:13in
10:13the wound i think where this all falls for me though is okay warriors if you're going to try to
10:21convince
10:21us that the right thing at the right time has not come along yet we really really value our flexibility
10:29okay i i can join you on the flexibility train one more time one more time one more time
10:43you're talking about optionality you can't do this again next summer
10:49and if you already think it's too late i don't i'm not gonna i have no issue with you
10:56but one more time you cannot hold your flexibility just until steph leaves and then be like look
11:05flexibility flexible i wonder like your words are your words and i'm totally with you but i wonder
11:12how steph feels that to me well everybody's wondering that yeah and and he's hasn't shown any
11:18maybe he's with you though like okay one more season i'm gonna give you one more year and then
11:23all right optionality let's go um eight at eight nine five seven nine five seventy have the warriors
11:29waited too long um or are you willing to grant one more year do you want to grant three more
11:35years
