00:00Had it hit ya, when you saw the Shams Bombs, the newest member of the Miami Heat, Klay Thompson.
00:13What's that, brother?
00:14Kaboom!
00:16Exactly right.
00:17He's gonna play with Anantokanbu!
00:20Anantokanbu for three!
00:22Kaboom!
00:23It's great.
00:24Isn't that amazing?
00:25I hadn't even thought about it.
00:26Holy cannoli.
00:27This is crazy.
00:27I hadn't thought about the fact that that dude is now, he's now Giannis' play-by-play guy.
00:35Anantokanbu for three!
00:37Anantokanbu for three!
00:40I didn't realize that either!
00:43Oh my god, I just realized that!
00:45That's so great!
00:46Oh!
00:48Hello!
00:49Yep, but Klay Thompson as well.
00:54Negotiated a buyout from the $17.5 million expiring salary with the Dallas Mavericks.
01:02Klay said that his priority this summer was to join a contender.
01:10Yep.
01:11So he will be a member of the Miami Heat.
01:14And they are more of a contender than Dallas, so yeah.
01:17They're more of a contender than the Golden State Warriors.
01:20Uh, yes!
01:22Kabo!
01:23And, uh...
01:24I agree.
01:25I don't really see them as a contender, but I'll buy that they're more in position than
01:30the Warriors are.
01:30Right.
01:31I mean, if you want to go ahead and, like, slot the East in terms of contenders, you've
01:36got the Knicks defending champions.
01:38For sure.
01:39In no order.
01:39No order.
01:40The Knicks and Philadelphia and Cleveland.
01:43Boston.
01:44And Boston.
01:45Detroit.
01:46And Detroit.
01:50And Miami.
01:51Maybe.
01:51Okay.
01:52Maybe they show up next.
01:54Toronto just got Kawhi.
01:59Like, I don't know.
02:00I don't know.
02:00But I don't see them as a threat to come out of the East.
02:04Let's put it that way.
02:05More of a threat than the Warriors are to come out of the West.
02:07For sure.
02:08And more of a threat than Dallas to come out of the West.
02:10No question.
02:11So...
02:11No question.
02:12I'm not, like, there's no...
02:13No, I get it, yeah.
02:14Go to Miami.
02:15I mean, this is wonderful living down there.
02:17I mean, late in your career, go play with Giannis in South Beach with no taxes?
02:22Right.
02:22Sure, dude.
02:22And, I mean, now you're single again.
02:24There's no more Megan Thee Stallion.
02:27And so...
02:27Yes.
02:28I don't know.
02:29Clay's got himself a decent roster.
02:31And he loves...
02:33He's somewhat of a Yosman.
02:35He likes being out there on the open water.
02:37It's true.
02:37He's back to the water.
02:38So you go to a place where there's water.
02:40And there are, I think, female companions who you might be able to, I don't know, encounter.
02:48It's getting uncomfortable.
02:49It's a little bit of a...
02:50Yeah.
02:50So I'm doing my John Miller.
02:51I'm trying to...
02:52I don't know why John Miller needs to be the voice when you start talking about women on
02:56South Beach.
02:57Well, it's when you talk about things that are maybe...
02:59What?
03:00Are you kidding me?
03:00So you, you know, you approach it with the certain sort of tempo as a John Miller.
03:07I think that Clay will find himself there.
03:09What is going on here?
03:11Wow.
03:12I'll tell you, Bob, what's going on.
03:14For the love of God.
03:16Clay's going to Miami and there are hot chicks there.
03:19And Mike Breen's on the call.
03:20That's what we're talking about.
03:22Stop.
03:23Why did your mind go there?
03:26Because...
03:27What does this have to do about...
03:29He's not going to Charlotte.
03:31No.
03:34Bang!
03:36Bang!
03:37I'm sure Clay Thompson will have as much luck as he would like to have with the opposite
03:44sex wherever he lives.
03:46That's an unbelievable assumption.
03:48That's true.
03:49But if you want to talk about, like, the ultimate destination sensations as a single, wealthy,
03:59handsome NBA player, Miami's probably either number one or number two.
04:04Sure.
04:04Sure.
04:05We should come at this from a different angle.
04:07No.
04:08We should come at this from whatever angle we come at this with.
04:11And this is the angle I've taken.
04:12Okay.
04:12Okay.
04:13I'm going to try to switch the angle.
04:16Because I feel like...
04:18Exactly.
04:19Do you think the Warriors even...
04:20I have no idea what he's making in Miami.
04:23I don't know what he's making.
04:27I wonder if the Warriors even called.
04:30I wonder if they even tried.
04:32Maybe Clay wouldn't have even taken the call.
04:35As you said, right?
04:36They're not a contender.
04:38I don't know.
04:39I don't know.
04:40It's funny, though, because I do see the Warriors right now in the age of Jimmy Butler and Moses
04:46Moody being hurt, I'm not...
04:50Like, this isn't a run-it-back thing.
04:52This isn't a nostalgia thing.
04:54They could use a two-slash-three wing that shoots threes.
04:59They could use one.
05:00Right.
05:00Yeah.
05:01And so could Miami.
05:03Well, so could everybody, but...
05:05Right.
05:05Yeah.
05:05And if you're Clay, I mean, would you rather go somewhere new where you can just be yourself,
05:10be Clay Thompson, or come back here where it's going to be, oh, boy, you know,
05:14you're back here with the Warriors, and, you know, it's Draymond and Steph, and, you know,
05:18maybe you come off the bench.
05:19I'll tell you what.
05:19When Pods gets tired, Clay, when Pods needs a breather, you go ahead and you come on in
05:25and you play your eight minutes, and then we'll take you out.
05:28That's an interesting way of looking at it.
05:30Do you think if Clay were on the team, he would start?
05:32I don't even know.
05:33He didn't start in Dallas.
05:35I don't know if he's going to start in Miami.
05:38He probably wouldn't, right?
05:40I don't know.
05:41He might, I'm just looking at their team, and you've got, you know, Giannis and Bam,
05:46and, hi, this is Andrew Wiggins.
05:48Right.
05:48And you've got Bobby Portis, maybe he plays the tough guy four.
05:53Forgot that he was rejoining Wiggs.
05:55And, I mean, you've got Hardaway Jr. and Davion Mitchell, so, I don't know, depends on
06:00what you want to do with your team, but Clay's going to get 25 or 30 minutes.
06:04What is the Warriors starting lineup?
06:07Handicapped out right now.
06:08What is it?
06:09It's going to be...
06:10I got Steph at the one.
06:13I got...
06:14I got...
06:15Curry!
06:16We got Pods.
06:18Kristaps at the five?
06:20Draymond at the four?
06:21Yep.
06:22And then probably Yaxxler at the three.
06:23Yaxxler at the three and Pods at the two.
06:24Is that what we're...
06:26Is that...
06:27Is that...
06:27Check Kalshi.
06:29I don't think that they do that, and you can look that up for your read now.
06:32Maybe Melton at the two.
06:34Oh, Melton.
06:35Over Pods?
06:36Maybe.
06:38Maybe.
06:38Do you think that's going to happen, or do you want that to happen?
06:42Both?
06:43I don't know.
06:46I have arrived at a point where the whole Pods thing just tickles me.
06:50I'm just going to take...
06:52That's going to be the angle that I take on that this year.
06:54I think it's funny how uncomfortable people get with Brandon Podjemski.
06:59I don't understand it, but that's okay.
07:02A lot of things I don't understand in this life.
07:06So, yeah.
07:08I think it's amusing.
07:09It's amusing what happens to people's shoulders when you bring up Brandon Podjemski.
07:14Yeah.
07:14Yeah.
07:15It's all tight.
07:16It just reminds me a little bit of the Barry Zito thing, and obviously at a different price
07:20point, but when they paid Zito what they paid him, and they did that because they needed
07:25a palate cleanser after the Barry Bonds experience, and so Zito got all that money, and he was
07:30never really good enough to earn that money until the playoffs in, what, 2012, was it?
07:36That was 12, yeah.
07:36And he actually, I mean, he had a great start.
07:39He saved their bacon.
07:40Right.
07:40He saved their bacon.
07:41But even at that, fans will still look at that and say, oh, I mean, what an overpay,
07:46and he was a bum, and this and that.
07:47Such a unique experience, right?
07:49Like, there's three things that stand out with Barry Zito.
07:52It's the biggest contract that the Giants had ever signed, and it was absolutely, it
07:58ended up being all in all terrible.
08:01Plus, he got, like, benched, left off the roster, and has admitted later that he was rooting
08:08against the Giants from their own dugout.
08:10Wow.
08:11So there's that.
08:12But then, for me, like, if you're a Giants fan, would you pay $126 million just for you
08:19to show up on the mound in St. Louis down three games to one and hawk a gem?
08:25Like, is that worth a buck 26 right there?
08:29Just that night?
08:30Kind of is.
08:32Yeah.
08:32I mean, they won the World Series.
08:34They won the World Series.
08:35They don't win without him.
08:36And especially what he had gone through personally, because none of us thought, okay,
08:40here comes Barry.
08:41We got this game.
08:42This one's a win.
08:43Like, let's move on to game six.
08:45It was exactly the opposite.
08:46Exactly.
08:47I remember the restaurant I went to, and even the fact that I went to a restaurant tells
08:50you how I was feeling.
08:52I was not yoked in.
08:53I'm like, let's just go.
08:55Let's go get some dinner.
08:56And I watched this thing go down in flames.
08:58And then he hucked a gem.
09:02Hucked a gem.
09:03A gem?
09:03And we're coming back to San Francisco.
09:05And the rain in the skies is going to fall on Marco Scudero's face.
09:09That's right.
09:10Yeah.
09:11Scudero.
09:11Scudero.
09:13Scudero.
09:13Looking to the heavens.
