00:00Remember what August 29th was supposed to be?
00:03Yeah, it's what it is every year.
00:06What's that?
00:06My daughter's birthday.
00:08So, like, yeah.
00:09Happy birthday, Mama.
00:10Yeah, she turned four, and so...
00:12How's four going so far?
00:14It's been a little bit like three, two, and one.
00:18It's been, you know, a little topsy-turvy,
00:21a little bit of a rocky road, not the ice cream,
00:23but it's funny you bring that up,
00:25because I remember on her birthday,
00:27she was all excited to open her presents.
00:29I said, hold on, honey.
00:31I need to, before we do that,
00:33I need to check in on the Steph Curry extension.
00:36I need to see if he signed his extension
00:38before we go too far down the birthday range.
00:40Wow, you forward-promoted her birthday?
00:44That's incredible.
00:45Coming up.
00:46It's a good move.
00:46You get to open all 26 of the things that you...
00:50I mean, older parents, whatever.
00:52Oh, my God.
00:53Yeah, spoiler alert, she's spoiled,
00:56but before that, I need to check in on the chef,
00:59because he's extension eligible today,
01:02and we got to get that buttoned up
01:03before you open up your new Barbie mobile
01:07or whatever the hell that thing is.
01:08What did she get?
01:09What did she get?
01:09Like the Barbie camper.
01:10Yeah.
01:11With like...
01:11The Barbie camper.
01:12Yeah, it's like the Barbie, like, mobile with...
01:15Does she use it?
01:16Oh, yeah.
01:17She doesn't drive it around, but she opens it up,
01:19and, you know, she'll play with the grill,
01:20and there's like 138, like, micro pieces.
01:23I'm just done with it.
01:25I'm done with it.
01:26No, all those pieces ended up in the right place
01:29at the end of the day?
01:30No.
01:30They end up on the carpet,
01:32and you walk through at night in your bare feet,
01:34and you step on, like, the marshmallow
01:37that's on a stick that goes in the barbecue
01:39that's not there,
01:40and whatever Ken just lies around doing nothing all day.
01:43Seriously, there's no pain like stepping on a Lego.
01:46That's all I want to say.
01:47There is no pain like stepping on a Lego.
01:50Yes.
01:50That's it.
01:50Our living room currently has 484 small pieces
01:54scattered throughout from eight different toys,
01:57but, yes, August 29th, it's all about the chef.
02:00I'm impressed by everybody.
02:02I thought this was going to be loud and uncomfortable
02:05and filled with anxiety,
02:08but Steph Curry has not signed a new extension,
02:10and I think it's glorious.
02:12I think it is absolutely glorious
02:15because of what it might mean,
02:16and I'm proud of the Warrior fan base
02:19for not losing their mind
02:20and running to the mountaintops with a bullhorn
02:24to say that this is Steph Curry wanting to leave.
02:28Steph Curry wants to leave.
02:29That's why he won't even sign an extension with the Warriors.
02:31He doesn't want to be here.
02:33This is him leveraging the situation.
02:35He's telling the Warriors,
02:36he's holding their feet to the fire,
02:38you better get me a teammate
02:39or I am out of here.
02:41I will not sign an extension with you,
02:43and for all I know, that's what's happening,
02:45but I doubt it.
02:46I doubt it.
02:47What I think actually is happening
02:49is, as we know,
02:51the Golden State Warriors
02:52have the most self-aware sports star
02:54who's ever lived.
02:55That's what they have.
02:57I would call him that,
03:00and therefore,
03:01I think Steph Curry,
03:03like the Warriors,
03:05they sit here today and they know,
03:07I don't even know
03:08where that conversation would go
03:10if we had it right now.
03:12What's the number?
03:14What's the contract look like?
03:16I have no clue
03:18what the Warriors would say,
03:20what Steph would say.
03:21I know it's easy to just be like,
03:23well, Max,
03:24why?
03:25Why would you do that?
03:27I get why you're like,
03:29well, here's why Steph would do that,
03:31because people are not in the business
03:33of giving up money that they can get,
03:36but if Steph's true motivations
03:38are what I think they are,
03:40which is that he wants to prove
03:42that he can still play consistently
03:44at the NBA level
03:46and at a high level
03:47for multiple years to come,
03:49and he wants to win
03:50and he wants to do that here.
03:52Well, if those are your goals,
03:54then you don't sign.
03:55You don't sign.
03:56Like, with your knee,
03:58I have no idea what that number is
04:00and we'd have no idea
04:02who else is available.
04:04So why not just wait?
04:07Let your deal
04:09turn into salary cap space
04:11and figure it out
04:13at the end of the year
04:15and go into the offseason
04:16with the most cap space
04:17that any team has ever had
04:18in the history of the league.
04:19Do it.
04:20And then let's see
04:21what makes sense at that time
04:24and see who else you can woo
04:25to come here
04:26and let's see how your knee's doing.
04:28Yeah, and you, I'm sure,
04:30have seen the video
04:31of his tour in China
04:33for his new brand,
04:34Li Ning.
04:35Yeah, but I was...
04:36Limping.
04:36Was he, like,
04:38pronounced limping?
04:39I wouldn't call it
04:40a pronounced limp,
04:40and you've seen me
04:41walk around here
04:43with my mostly pronounced limp.
04:45That's a pronounced limp.
04:46Yeah, for a few steps especially.
04:47It's like, yeah, it's bad.
04:49The knee is crooked
04:50and I limp around
04:51and I'm 58.
04:51I'm not, you know,
04:52out here with runner's knee,
04:53but I wouldn't say
04:54that he had a pronounced limp.
04:57Was it a clear limp?
04:59Or was he just walking
05:00with a limp?
05:01He's walking a little slow.
05:02You know what I mean?
05:03Yeah, it's not anything
05:04to worry about
05:05because it is September
05:07and they don't have
05:08a real game,
05:09even an exhibition game
05:10for, I think it's 19 days,
05:12October 4th.
05:13Correct.
05:13In Hawaii
05:14and the great
05:15Whitley Sangretto,
05:17our social media chief,
05:19will be there
05:19documenting all of it
05:20and I, you know,
05:22I found that out,
05:23I think, late last week.
05:24The boss announced it.
05:25I was like,
05:25look at you.
05:26Look at you, Whitley.
05:27And she earns it.
05:28She works her butt off.
05:29A little trip to Hawaii.
05:30A little trip to Hawaii.
05:31Like, you know,
05:32you and I got to go to Linden.
05:34On your own?
05:35Right.
05:35Can you imagine?
05:36On your own.
05:37Will you follow the Warriors
05:39to Hawaii by yourself
05:41for a week?
05:42Let me check, boss.
05:43I might be busy.
05:45I gotta check my calendar.
05:47I'd go just for the flight
05:49there and back.
05:50I dragged you to Linden,
05:51California.
05:52You sure did.
05:53I mean,
05:54it was great, Tim.
05:54It was great.
05:55Enjoyed it.
05:55It's not Honolulu.
05:57It's not Waikiki.
05:59But anyway,
06:00they are still
06:01two and a half weeks away
06:02from even meaningless basketball.
06:04So,
06:05what's the worry?
06:06And the way you laid it out,
06:07I think,
06:07is exactly the way
06:08Steph and the Warriors
06:10are both looking at it.
06:11He'll be 39
06:12on Pi Day,
06:14March 14th.
06:15And if you go ahead
06:16and give him the max now,
06:18who's to say
06:19that he's gonna even be
06:20able to be upright
06:21when he's 40
06:22and 41?
06:23And I get like,
06:25you know,
06:25look,
06:25he's still a human being
06:27and he's still
06:28a great basketball player.
06:30So,
06:31I'm not one of these people
06:32that's like,
06:33you better take a discount.
06:34You better take a discount.
06:35But if Steph is,
06:36and I think he is,
06:37the most self-aware
06:39sports superstar
06:40we've ever watched,
06:42if he is that,
06:43I think it even makes sense
06:45for him
06:46to be like,
06:47let's not do this now.
06:49And the reason for that
06:51is on some level
06:53there is a PR
06:55roll of the dice
06:56if Steph Curry
06:58signs a two-year
06:59max extension.
07:00Now look,
07:01this could break
07:02in an hour.
07:02that that's what
07:04he's doing.
07:05And I wouldn't
07:06criticize him for it,
07:07not yet,
07:09but,
07:09there's a scenario
07:11that if he does that,
07:13and he signs a max deal
07:14for two more years,
07:15there's a scenario
07:16where this gets wobbly
07:18and fast.
07:20And this is someone
07:21who has never,
07:23in his life,
07:24he has never
07:27made anyone
07:28in the Warrior fan base
07:29be a detractor.
07:30Never.
07:31And I don't think
07:32he's going to start now.
07:34If you sign that
07:35$130 million deal
07:37for two more years,
07:39and then you come out
07:40this year,
07:41and your knee
07:42doesn't work,
07:43and you get to the end
07:45of next season,
07:46what happens?
07:48I mean,
07:49to me,
07:49the fan base
07:50is going to be like,
07:51well,
07:51that was a mistake.
07:52And I don't think
07:53he wants that.
07:54And quite frankly,
07:55I could argue
07:56this a little bit
07:57of a mistake
07:57for him too.
07:58He needs to know
08:00what he needs
08:01around him.
08:02Does he need a partner?
08:03Or does he need a leader?
08:05Does he need to be the two
08:07and someone else
08:07can be the one
08:08or whatever?
08:09Yeah,
08:10even if he's the one,
08:11you need to have
08:12two twos
08:13and two really good threes.
08:14And so,
08:15let's play this out
08:16even further.
08:17He gets the extension
08:18and it gets announced
08:19in the next 90 seconds.
08:21Well,
08:21Jimmy Butler is gone
08:23for sure
08:24after he
08:25gets better
08:26and plays.
08:26And if you don't
08:27sign the extension,
08:28Steph plays out
08:29this year
08:30knowing that
08:31the organization
08:31will take care of him
08:32and Jimmy comes back
08:33in January or February
08:35and looks to be
08:36like a really good
08:37version of Jimmy,
08:38not all the way
08:39old Jimmy.
08:40His contract is done
08:41but he wants to stay
08:43so he takes less
08:45and he stays
08:45and Chris Stapps
08:46has a mostly healthy year
08:48and he fits in
08:49even better
08:50and he wants to stay
08:51so he takes less
08:52and he stays
08:53and Draymond's contract
08:55is up
08:56and you know
08:56Draymond still wants
08:57to play
08:58so he takes less
08:59and he stays
09:00and all of this
09:01is created by the fact
09:01that Steph waited.
09:03Steph doesn't have
09:03to take the minimum
09:04but he doesn't take
09:0660 whatever.
09:07Steph takes
09:0830 million.
09:09Draymond plays
09:10for 18.
09:11Jimmy plays
09:12for 26.
09:13Whatever the numbers are
09:14then you go out
09:14and you spend
09:15that historic
09:16cap space
09:17you're talking about
09:18and bring in
09:18somebody who
09:19maybe is a 1
09:21or it's a 1A
09:22and you know
09:23Jimmy's your 2
09:23and all the rest of it.
09:25I think that
09:26if Steph waits
09:27things can go
09:28well this year
09:29it doesn't mean
09:29you're going to
09:30win it all
09:30or anything
09:31but the guys
09:32that you play with
09:33can all decide
09:34yeah you know what
09:35let's try this
09:35one more time.
09:36Yeah well
09:36it could go that way
09:38or I just look
09:40at this as a much
09:41higher stakes
09:42or higher dollar
09:44version of what
09:46the Warriors
09:46just did with Draymond.
09:47Like Steph doesn't
09:49have a contract
09:50beyond this year
09:51but consider
09:52what he's doing
09:53right now
09:53as sort of like
09:54opting out
09:55of his future
09:56extension
09:57and the Warriors
09:58are saying to him
09:59you want the max
10:00you can have the max
10:01we can wait
10:02and maybe we'll get
10:04to a spot
10:04where who knows
10:05maybe Nikola Jokic
10:07will start showing up
10:08to Nuggets games
10:09in blue and gold
10:11I don't know
10:12maybe he'll start
10:12wearing the town
10:13across his forehead
10:15and if Jokic
10:16wants to come
10:17and Steph can look
10:19at this
10:19and next year
10:20be like
10:20oh okay
10:21I'll do it
10:21for 45
10:22or as you said
10:23or 30
10:24or whatever
10:24that number is
10:25but in the absence
10:26of that
10:27in the absence
10:28of a reason
10:30then we'll go ahead
10:31and give you the max
10:33and we're good for it
10:34and I believe
10:35that the Warriors
10:35are good for it
10:36and I think Steph
10:37knows that
10:38I think that they
10:38almost view
10:39one another
10:40as partners
10:41at this hour
10:42so I don't know
10:43that this is going
10:44to wait until
10:45next offseason
10:46it's been super quiet
10:48since the 29th
10:49got here
10:50whatever it is
10:5117 or 18 days ago
10:54and there's not
10:55really been a word
10:56as to why
10:57nothing has been
10:58signed yet
10:58I don't quite frankly
11:00know if you were
11:01going to sign it
11:01before this season
11:02why you wouldn't
11:03do it right away
11:04if you're waiting
11:05to me it tells me
11:06you're waiting
11:07for a while
11:07I would think
11:08and I would hope
11:10yes and honestly
11:11the first thing
11:12that came out
11:13and it was about
11:14a day or two
11:15after it was
11:16I think Steph
11:17Curry saying
11:18you know just
11:19to be clear
11:19I want to end
11:21my career
11:22as a Golden State
11:23Warrior
11:23I want to be
11:23a one jersey guy
11:24and the team
11:25basically said
11:26the same thing
11:27in their own way
11:28so for me
11:29the signal was
11:30direct to the
11:31fan base
11:32which was
11:32Curry's not
11:33going anywhere
11:34and Steph
11:35himself wasn't
11:36saying anything
11:36about well you
11:37know we'll see
11:38what happens
11:38this year
11:39blah blah blah
11:39he said
11:40no I'm going
11:41to finish
11:41my career
11:42as a warrior
11:42the team
11:43said the same
11:44and the signal
11:45that I got
11:45as a warrior
11:46fan was
11:46they're just
11:47going to wait
11:48none of this
11:48is going to be
11:49oh Steph
11:50is unhappy
11:51I mean Steph
11:51only played
11:5228 minutes
11:53the other night
11:53Steve Kerr
11:54is trying to
11:55keep his value
11:55down
11:56like all the
11:57things that
11:57might be
11:58narratives
11:58it's all
11:59nonsense
11:59I just
12:00I mean
12:00I don't know
12:01how to have
12:02the conversation
12:02I look at
12:03I look at
12:03Steph and the
12:04Warriors
12:04right now
12:05and it
12:05reminds me
12:06of me
12:06and my
12:06daughter
12:06she's a
12:07senior
12:07and needs
12:08to get
12:09started here
12:09she has
12:10gotten started
12:11but like
12:11the next couple
12:12of months
12:12is college
12:13application
12:13time
12:14and I've
12:15already said
12:15to her
12:15like a number
12:16I don't
12:16even
12:17I don't
12:18know
12:18how to have
12:19this conversation
12:20with you
12:20and I think
12:21this is what
12:21happens with
12:22a lot of
12:22parents
12:22like it
12:23gets
12:24it can get
12:25emotional
12:25it can get
12:26tense
12:26and for a while
12:28I was like
12:28I'm not buying
12:29you a counselor
12:30like we can do
12:31this
12:31and I know
12:32but then all
12:34of the stuff
12:34comes up
12:35and you're like
12:35I don't know
12:37what I don't
