[Music] oo yeah [Music] o [Music] it’s time it is that time time for Styles and Rockets you can join the show by texting 916 339 1140 find us on YouTube at sack toown Sports 11:40 it’s time for Allen Styles at Chris Watkins yes yes yes on a Thursday Styles and Watkins sack toown Sports taking you up to 2m with the one the only Simone behind the glass for us as we break down all things NBA Nicks Pacers the games tonight our own Damonte simonis where he finished in MVP voting top 10 and not 10 and we also discuss what it means to complain and how you can complain in a proper fashion and Chris Watkins must be feeling good because Chris wants to talk some baseball that is later in the show as well during the last hour Speaking of Chris Watkins how are you doing good sir yeah you’re right I am I’m feeling great uh after that uh after that Pacers Knicks game yesterday our guy Tyrese halberton oh my goodness will you stop had a tough second half had a tough second half just leave him be it was uh it was a good good good game good game I don’t know uh I know we’re going to talk about Rick Carlile later but it was it was a phys definitely physical for sure and uh you know I’m excited to I’m just excited to see how that series plays out I think uh it’s gonna go over to Indiana here and uh I think it’s gonna I think it’s gonna remain physical I just think the Pacers are gonna start getting a lot of calls they’re gonna have yeah they’re gonna have to and look we know how I feel about everything as far as New York and how it’s been pretty obvious of it feels like there’s a bias and I don’t know if it was 78 calls worth of a bias but whether that’s true or not that is what the Pacers are submitting to the league and we talked about this Chris back when we’ve talked about the last two-minute report a lot and we’ve talked about challenging calls a lot because nobody is perfect and what happens next right so essentially what this is is hey you know when when we had the situation with Kobe Jones and Boston hey can we protest this isn’t a protest this long story short this is just to let them know hey guys it’s a little it’s bad right now it’s bad that this is the Pacers saying just clean it up a little bit we’re about to go home let’s let what I would have done you know in Rick Carlile he basically said I was gonna send this in we had 20 29 after the first game and then didn’t and now he said hey B I mean the way he did it we were talking to Carmichael Dave as we were doing the transition here and Dave said that he did it right and Dave’s probably right but now hindsight being 5050 or 2020 you would say well maybe you should have done that and maybe you would have got more calls in the in the second game but he had no choice now you’re going back to Indiana and I mean it is a difference I would say even with the Knicks and the Sixers even though they were mostly Knicks fans in there at least it felt like it in the Wells Fargo Center it did feel at least more even once you got out of New York these refs are scared Chris and I’m gonna keep saying it they do not want these New Yorkers finding them in the parking lot or in the corner after the game and they don’t have to worry about that when the games are on the road yeah I guess not they yeah they see those side talk videos and they’re like yeah there’s a bunch of crazy people out there they’re going to find my car or something uh you got Ben Stiller and Chris Rock sitting Courtside I don’t want that you just don’t want that smoke I guess yeah no thank you it’s it’s uh it’s definitely interesting because it’s it’s it’s just I I’ve been trying to figure out just how if it’s really a thing or not because more so leaning towards these big markets because that’s really what Rick Carlile you’re trying to figure that out I I just don’t know if it’s truly I I mean we all think it’s true and and you know we see things all the time and I I definitely think you know the Knicks tend to play a more physical style of basketball so I just don’t know how much of it with this series is just you know we talk about it during the regular season all the time if you set the tone early they’re gonna have to continually call it that way and I just think the Knicks play that style of basketball and you see how it how it how it works for them it’s just weird to me that like the series are called so different like you have the OKC Dallas series where we’re complaining about Shay getting all of these calls and then we have the complete opposite in this Nick Pacers series so I just can’t really tell if this is a thing if the NB why why would the NBA be I guess it’s just Market size Oklahoma City and New York it just doesn’t really uh it just doesn’t make sense to me in general the inconsistencies that we’re seeing between these series I hear you on that what I would say is I’ll take it to the nuggets and Timberwolves and you have the Nuggets who are the defending champs but they’re defending champs from a small market and I don’t even know if Denver is a tiny market right I I would put it above it’s not the smallest Market in the world and you got joic you got Jamal Murray yic isn’t really a face of the NBA but he is three-time MVP now and we’ll get into that later in the show because Shaq had some bizarre comments some cringey comments to to jokic but I’ll put it to you like this and I really do genuinely believe this the way the Timberwolves have been guarding the nuggets they could not not to say that they’re fouling but they’re not getting away with that against the Lakers and you can do with that information what you want maybe the Lakers are are flopping more I don’t know but there’s no way the Timberwolves get away with defending the Lakers like that I don’t know how to explain it they just wouldn’t yeah they just wouldn’t yeah I mean it’s it’s it’s fair it’s there’s no way we’re we’re gonna know I think uh I think the NBA is is just in a weird place with the with the officiating like I think it’s strange that they just switched it up in the middle of the season and then uh like you have to adjust in the middle of the year and then now in the playoffs it it’s you know it’s series by series it’s it’s matchup by matchup to figure out how the the games are going to be called and you know it’s going to be interesting to see once you reach the Conference Finals and you have uh you know an OKC Dallas series that’s been called one way and then they’re going to go play to your point a a t-wolves uh Denver winner that’s been playing a very physical series and then at some point those two things are going to have to come to a head and uh it it’ll be interesting to see how the NBA deals with it then I mean I personally I I think I like this more physical style of play it it’s definitely uh giving you a like the TJ McConnell and and jayen Brunson exchange from yesterday like there’s fullon shoulders being thrown TJ’s grabbing him the entire way down the floor I think it’s cool to see the the best players the most talented players in the world essentially like kind of playing prison ball playing street ball but a very very extreme uh extremely physical version of it I just don’t know if it’s I don’t know if it’s good for the NBA I think these playoff games have been great I just don’t know if uh this level of physicality is is necessarily great because it causes so much confusion on all of these really important calls like you know that you have the Tyrese Maxi incident the other day which they don’t call because they had already allowed so much physicality you know they allowed that to just pass it’s just I I don’t know how if if this is going to be a problem it’s kind of a mess and I and I am interested if you don’t have a team in the race anymore how you feel because it’s really physical but then you still have the flopping right the Miles Turner call where Jaylen Brenson just falls on the ground yeah yeah and you know what I mean and his twisties are just flopping in the air and he just gets the call and it’s it’s so it’s there’s it’s almost the worse it’s just it’s almost worse because it’s not that the Knicks they do not play aesthetically pleasing basketball sure they’re hacking you but then they’re also flopping so it’s a mess it’s a mess I’ve liked yeah yeah and it’s unfortunate because it’s it’s uh it it should be a really good series and I I think it’s going to end up being a really good series but to your point if the Knicks are going to continue to be allowed to uh play this physical with Indiana I just don’t think Indiana uh can can deal with that they’ve been a really free flowing Team all year long uh They Don’t Really defend which is what I think has ended up killing them at the end of that game they couldn’t get stops I heard I’m still hearing Van Gundy complain about TJ McConnell not being in the game for defensive reasons I I you know I I think if if they’re gonna continue and we’ll see once this transition goes to uh Indiana and I think that’s what Rick Carlile is trying to do I would imagine that yeah Indiana’s probably going to get a lot better of a whistle but it’ll it’ll be interesting to see how much different it really is because if it starts to look more like the whistle OKC’s gotten here recently I don’t think the Knicks are going to do well in Indiana but will it then shift again once they go back to the guard I mean and maybe part of that is is is there is there a world where and and to be fair what to what your your initial point was I’m not sitting here saying that the the refs have gotten ERS from Adam Sil to let the Knicks to let the Knicks win right or to let the Lakers win I think that humans are humans and you get caught up in the building and you get caught up in yeah like your point momentum whoever sets the whoever sets the pace but to bring it on back home right to the importance of the regular season in a way could Adam Silver say look you guys can’t prove like obviously I’m not ever gon going to tell the refs to to hey sway this way or sway that way but they’re humans and it is what it is but I will say this this is why those 82 games are so important to get home court advantage because C certain teams have really good advantages whether it whether it be the Knicks and just being in the garden whether it be the Lakers whether it be Denver and the altitude so this is why you don’t want to sell the season and you want to get home court ADV so you are in a better position and you don’t have to deal with that there’s always been a home court advantage and maybe it’s been unspoken right hey you’re always gonna get it’s always been said and that’s when they went to NBA on TNT Shaq Shaq and I think Chuck as well you’re not gonna get calls on the road now I think Carlile is saying we’ve crossed over that threshold of not getting calls on the road and this is just egregious at that point but if one were to make the argument well I don’t think it’s agree just we’ll get into the numbers here in a second maybe that’s maybe that’s Adam Sil and he would say this is why you want home court you guys want to sit players and end up in the yeah you want to end up in the fifth seed or whatever because you can Coast through the playoffs okay you know we haven’t seen this in so long because the Nicks have been basuda so now that they’re good and they’re not Gage anymore earlier Point too we’ve talked about it with the Lakers before with the Lakers so maybe this is there’s always been a homec corn Advantage whether or not that’s crossed over or not that that is what the patients are trying to argue we will get into those numbers in detail right when we get back sty

owned this building and I you know he got the deed to it I don’t I don’t know I don’t know how maybe so my pops he grew up in Chicago and it’s Daddy Daycare right now that’s what’s going on with me wifey is in Chicago so it’s just me and the me and the little one for the next couple days she’s in Chicago my dad’s from Chicago and I don’t know what it is about and maybe this is with all ogs that grew up with Michael and just love Michael but they also hate all of Michael’s foes throughout the year right throughout the years my dad can’t stand Isaiah Thomas he can’t stand Reggie Miller he don’t like any of them he does not not like any of them and Reggie Miller is actually grown on me I don’t have a problem with Reggie Miller and he had some fun with it last night this is what he had to say he said why it’s difficult to play at Madison Square Garden you’re playing five verse eight you’re playing the officials as well so this is not this I guess what we’re learning is this is not new right the the Knicks just haven’t been in the playoffs right and and and Brunson is better than Julius Rand I mean when they were in the playoffs a couple years ago whatever it was was that last year it just felt it didn’t feel like this yeah no it definitely didn’t feel like they excited but they it was not like this they have a completely different identity you and they set to your point Chris they set the stage all season long all season long we’re gonna hold you under 90 points in this NBA and we’re gonna dare the refs we’re gonna go legion of boom Seahawks and we’re gonna dare the refs to make this the worst looking game ever yep the worst you cannot call everything or will the game will take 10 hours and that’s why they don’t call you know things like you know we we spotted the dant chenzo uh Chop block all those Year all those months ago like that’s exactly what they’ve done all year long is just play this physical brand of ball where yeah diving for a 5050 ball they’re not going to call it because the Knicks have been doing it all season they’ve been doing it all year and so uh yeah they’ve just they’ve done a great job of setting the tone all year that this is how they’re going to play and you know it it’s tough to argue it when this is this is is how it’s been all year and I don’t even think it’s necessarily that they are I mean sure they’re probably fouling by Universal standards but you know again they they play a physical brand of ball and I think that’s that’s just kind of what it is when you play there like you said that’s kind of their homecourt advantage is when you’re there you’re allowed to play a more physical style and I think that the beautiful foot art is it goes two ways it goes both ways I didn’t really feel like with the exception of the Jaylen Brunson flop and you can maybe argue the the the scre the other day that got called I think it’s been physical both ways like I think the Knicks have definitely gotten beat up themselves and you know last series Joel embiid was beating up Jaylen Brunson the entire time and none of them were calls it does feel weird though and you do have Brunson getting to the line a lot and we know he’s a bit of a foul Merchant it does feel weird because these large markets and maybe it’s just the way they play but the Knicks they trailed a and I’m thinking just thinking strictly Lakers and Knicks the Knicks they Trail a lot they’ve trailed in both in they trailed in both games against the Pacers they Trail a lot against the Sixers and then just something happens and they just come back right the Lakers would do the same thing so that is why people that have the tin foil hat on say wait a second why does this keep happening all right let’s get to Rick Carlile and we have plenty of sound from Rick Carlile we’re going to fire through it this is Rick carile talking about small Market teams and what they deserve as well you know one guy just said he didn’t all dribble but it looked to me like you know tibs went out there and argued it and they changed it that’s what it looked like you know so I can only go by what I see what I what I saw and um you that’s that’s that’s small beans compared to everything else you know um but you know small Market teams deserve an equal shot they deserve they deserve a fair shot no matter where no no matter where they’re playing anybody else so he knows he’s getting fined and he doesn’t care yeah right he doesn’t care I mean if Jamal Murray can throw a kitchen sink on the court and and not get suspended then I I Rick Carlile is not tripping off of the he he had to make a point and the Raptor coach did this against the Lakers and he said and I don’t know what he got F but he said we could just stay on the plane if if you’re not gonna call it correctly for and and I think it was yeah it was definitely against the Lakers we could just stay on the plane right and I really do think it’s just I was thinking about this Chris it’s just those two teams right there’s others there’s star power I think out in Sacramento you might say Steph Curry but in the bay I can guarantee they don’t think and I don’t sure every no fan base thinks so but I don’t see as somebody who was on both sides yeah I I don’t see the the Warriors I’m not putting the Warriors in that category yeah I don’t know who else I would put in that category besides the Lakers and the Knicks yeah it’s like it because it I would say the heat but it’s only when they have good teams or good players like when the heat had LeBron and D Wade and all that they would get the benefit of the but those are stars absolutely um I mean you know yeah I’m sure Celtics yeah I I think all of it’s just good teams I think you have to be good team good Market too it’s you know they weren’t helping the Knicks when the Knicks were in the dumpster exactly exactly so you know it’s it’s probably the ni when they’re good it’s the Knicks the Lakers you know you could definitely throw Miami in there at times we haven’t seen the Bulls really at a super high level with the exception of the D Rose years but those teams were coached by Tom Tibido who played a very physical style of basketball even then then had go up against LeBron and they say okay well you’re not LeBron each other out exactly so yeah I’d probably say there’s a big five but to your bigger point I think those two markets LA and New York definitely the Lakers I think universally get the benefit of the doubt but um I think we’re definitely seeing that the Knicks uh will get will get a whistle Advantage for sure but it’s it’s also at home in the garden and uh you know they again they just play a really physical style basketball speaking of the Clippers we we have some sound from Paul George later in the show and it it made me think how lucky we are that no Kings players have podcasts at least not yet let’s continue on we have Rick Carlile some sound on the Miss calls um couple examples 508 to the thir you know the the whole world knows that H Burton’s got a bad back and Hart comes up and shoves him in the back and it’s all over Twitter right now because a couple people a few people have showed it to me and JB D Ro is looking right at it you can see him he’s got he’s got vision of the play and he shoves tie right in the corner and there’s no whistle right in the back and so that was that was shocking you know and there there are many others but I can promise you that we’re going to submit these tonight New York can get ready they’ll see them too um you know I’m always talking to our guys about not it about the officials and but you know we just we deserve a fair shot you know and and it just uh it’s just not the it’s just there’s not there’s not a consistent balance see Rick Carlile AKA Jim Carrey is fed you presented the question I think at this top of the show like is there or in the cross talk is there any way to do this without sounding like you’re complaining and that clip right there was the one to me that said it over the top like that’s where it’s like okay yeah we can pick spec I mentioned that TJ McConnell uh Jaylen Brunson play where they show the replay of oh how physical of a match it’s just like if you’re gonna pick and yeah because the Tyrese thing I know exactly what he’s talking about I saw it C it was bad it was a twohand shove and you know Ty he should have flopped he probably should have flopped if they wanted the call um as terrible as that is to say but I I just think that if you want to pick and choose yeah sure there was just a lot of physical play on both sides I’m not saying and that doesn’t mean that what Josh Hart did was was okay or not but again if that’s just how the series is going to be played this is you know and it sucks I it could just be a hey you lose you don’t really get the the benefit of Doubt to complain but it just feels like hey you guys are both playing the same game on on well they would argue not on even field but I think you just got to adjust like it’s it’s not fair but you know complaining just doesn’t isn’t gonna uh isn’t gonna Curry you any favor I don’t think yeah but if you feel like your back is against the wall you’re down to0 and if this continues you get you getting packed up I do think a lot of this to your point earlier is that Styles make fights styles with a Y in this case makes fights and this is a bad matchup for the Pacers they want to be smooth and I mean it’s a a version of the Kings and the Kings never beat the the Knicks they lost to the Knicks twice Okay so I just also think it’s a bad matchup and then on top of all this I just if you’re R Carla he’s sitting there saying I can’t handle all this all right coming up next we have more sound on Carla submitting calls to the league we tell you how many calls they found and as Chris said let’s Workshop this what are good ways or what is the best way to complain about something without people saying you’re complaining and just not listening Styles and Watkins sdown Sports you never know what you might hear when listening to a Sacramento Kings game Keegan going for another

and this is on the fome Lake Honda hotline all guest and callers join us on the fom Lake Honda hotline F Lake Honda you’re one stop Honda shop 916 33 9140 look I get it and you know I I saw some people Chris say complain complaining about sending something to the league and not sending a double team on Jaylen Brunson is crazy that’s what you’re going to get but that’s what I’m saying is there any good way to complain about anything let’s say something wrong was done to you right in anything in life as soon as it comes off as complaining even if it’s legit nobody cares yeah yeah nobody cares I mean it it’s yeah I I don’t know what you can really do about it I mean you know you can uh yeah I mean it’s it’s pretty much just the reality of the situation especially when especially in a sporting event like when you lose like there’s you can’t you cannot present any form of of complaining and and not have it taken as oh you’re being a sore loser oh right uh you know you wouldn’t be saying this if you were winning or anything like that and and it starts 2 point2 well if you would have done this then you wouldn’t have had to worry if you would have made your free throws Pacers the Pacers missed a lot of free throws in that game yesterday um you know maybe maybe the fouls don’t matter as much I think what you guys are trying to say it’s not it’s that when you are critiquing something then it is going to be perceived as complaining if you are on the losing side yeah I mean you cannot there’s no good way to do it right like I told you I watched King Richard over the weekend and there was a show on peacock it was oh fall apples may fall or something like that it was a story about a family and they were all tennis players and in both that show which I didn’t know because I never played tennis my little sister played a little bit but not long enough to get into matches or anything like that when you’re a young kid coming up in tennis you’re calling in andout right they don’t have the lying judges yeah so you’re calling in honor System honor System and in the show and also in King Richard they’re two kids there is a kid in each and the ball is in and they say it’s out right now Venus not a spoiler alert Venus Venus and Serena ended up being pretty successful but in that one Venus ended up winning the match right but let’s say Venus lost that match right and she knows it was in but the who she was facing has no integrity and just said it was out honor System you gotta tell Venus don’t complain right no I mean it yeah because it it then becomes again it becomes a I think it really comes down to you’re complaining about something that’s out of your control instead of taking acknowledgement for what you did that led to the result as well hey Venus that was only one point exactly that’s what everyone’s going to tell you it was just one point oh that’s just one call and I think maybe that’s why Rick car’s gck Carl was like it’s not one call it’s not one one moment as Chris says that 49 yeah okay overnight the Pacers filed 49 calls they felt were incorrect from game that was only from game two only from game two he said he had 29 from game one 49 from game two 9 from game one which how did he have that so like what they’re tracking it as the game’s going on like how did he get the film done between the end of the game I think they were already ticked off they were ticked off that that moving screen I mean it really got them a total of 78 miscalls in two games maybe this is Rick carlile’s answer to your question maybe this is how you have it be I can complain without people getting mad because it’s I’m not just saying it’s one call I’m calling the like the uh I can’t remember it’s insurmountable whole the whole games are in qu both games are in question here it’s not just hey you know the the Sixers can complain about that one Tyrese Maxi inbound and if that goes different the game goes different I’m not saying yeah sure you could say don’t put yourself in a situation where one play changes the result of the game Carlile is saying we can’t we can’t impact we can’t overcome 29 things 29 wrongdoings we can’t overcome 49 wrongdoings I is are those numbers even accurate is it remotely true we don’t know Dr and Kendrick we don’t know until we see receipts yeah but hearing it it changes your everybody’s gonna say well that’s I think you know it’s what Dave said in the to us in between shows he said you know it’s now to the point where everyone’s gonna have that in their head 29 calls 49 calls so now there’s you already know there’s going to be some sorry sad Pacers fan who’s literally going to watch in front of their TV and say I’m going to count this game oh okay there was 15 20 calls that didn’t go in the Pacers way so he’s just drawing more attention to it instead of just throwing complaints out there and you know having people as they always do tear it apart he saying no this is something you can’t tear apart there is 49 individual instances not just not just one or two things that I’m complaining about I still don’t think it works I still just think it’s you know ex if it’s happening that often then should tell you that’s just how this is is happening you know if they just wanted to be dialed back a little bit that’s fine and that’s fine I 78 they probably they probably said okay out of 78 if the league a if the league acknowledges 30 to 40 probably closer to 30 because you know how the league is they’re not going to want to admit that they were wrong yeah if the league acknowledges 30 I feel like we’ve done our job that’s probably their thought I mean it’s a pretty decent batting average to say we feel like that’s pretty darn close to insurmountable obviously there’s not going to be a protest or anything like that can we just clean this up could the argument just be made maybe that this is just proof like proof that the Pacers aren’t like I don’t want to say not tough enough but essentially like maybe they can’t handle the physicality of what the playoffs entail like could you argue that if you have a team that makes it to a certain point in a in a tournament and then at some point you start to say man things are getting way too physical out here maybe is that just a sense of those your style of play doesn’t really match up with what ends up happening at some point in the playoff in the tournament it’s all these it’s all these free flowing teams right they they’ve all been called Soft before it’s why chuck would say JUMP shooting teams couldn’t win before the Warriors won right exactly exactly a and they’ve already they’ve already debunked a couple right the the Miles Turner one last two minute report already said that that was a moving screen so some of calls have already been debunked right yeah so you’re not you’re you’re hoping for maybe 30 and and I don’t know if the league is Gonna Come Back we we won’t hear anything else I think Ric Carlile we’ll get the two-minute report but maybe they just feel like they have nothing to lose but I will say this if you think that the league feels the same on the outside or on the inside for Boston vers Indiana instead of Boston vers New York we know that ain’t true what they’re willing to do to make sure that happens yeah I I don’t think Adam is saying hey you know what to do but at the same time I think it could already be in there just from a human standpoint and I’m not really kidding about these New York fans finding these refs I’m honestly not kidding about that yeah Bing b they’re pretty they’re pretty insane we gonna find there’s enough of them there’s enough of them hey Joel and be come catch these hands well and it’s also like you know the reality of the situation is like sometimes you know bosses are are fans of the Knicks or something like that you know and it’s like you know but do they do that with refs do we know where these refs are from like like a jury no yeah we do um and it’s not always impartial because I remember I looked it up earlier this year and the kings were playing somebody I mean and there was that ref Scandal last year remember where the uh that ref had like his whole family was Celtics fans or all Celtics gear and it was you know brought into question like hey this guy’s refed like 35 Celtics games and they’re 30 and five in those games so there might be something to it put put stuff put stuff on the jerseys you got robot umps we saw robot umps frankly we went to rivercats you put full body gear on underneath right you you know some Under Armour looking stuff and that is how they measure in 25 years 30 years Chris that is how they will measure oh you know you can hear that on the on the mic oh slapped hand okay that’s a foul robot refs where we’re heading it because these guys you know they got they got fandom Chris they can just do what they do in soccer it’s just like you know they usually try and make sure it’s like nobody from England is doing the England verse Germany the UK the G League something like that coming up next we have Montana we have S from from carile and what he submitted to

verad who I think he’s still here they know more about football soccer than me there’s this kid I’m I’m just not reading this am I am I getting old the more I read front office Sports does that mean I’m becoming more of an OG washed up because I just find front office Sports so fascinating nowadays here’s a new one and like I said I’m not super familiar with football but just call suck I refuse my mom won’t let me by the way shout out to my uncle he turns 75 today shout out to Uncle Alfredo he helped me out a lot when I was coming up I went to a Virginia Tech baseball camp and I’m I’m actually I was actually born in Virginia and they still live out in Virginia and he let me stay out there he drove me to all the camps and things like that so 75 to Uncle Alfredo so and he did play some football from Panama and all that jazz they all did football and baseball yes and here it is guys 14-year-old Cavin Sullivan believe that’s right has officially signed the richest homegrown contract in MLS history with the Philadelphia Union now oddly enough front office doesn’t say what it is they say as part of the deal the American Teenager will be transferred to Manchester City when he turns eight I wish rad was here and Philadelphia will be paid up to5 million so basically he they’re using the MLS as like a g-league is that what this is um he’s gonna be playing games at 14 uh probably not it’ll it’ll probably be a couple years I mean man City’s like the best club in don’t don’t don’t dare abely I’m gonna Cliff it uh man City’s pretty decent and so yeah he probably will take a couple years to uh to eventually get up there but uh yeah I guess you can kind of view it as as a g-league in a sense more so I mean it’s definitely not the the top tier of competition um but recently this has kind of been uh mls’s strategy to kind of get better players they’ve started to recruit more from you know South America and things like that and have those young players come through MLS and then eventually get signed but there has been a couple American born players who have come through MLS and then gone out to uh to European clubs it’s interesting does this feel like the does it feel like MLS or is MLS just now being open to we just want anything that’s gonna get eyes on us we’re not trying to necessarily we’re never gonna catch right the the European leagues right so we’re just gonna be a cool league and we’re going to give you different reasons to different reasons to watch whether it’s a star on the other side of the Hill whether it’s a star before he gets to the hill that’s just going to be our stick absolutely I do think there’s something to Knowing Your Role Chris yeah where I worked previously to this before I was in the industry they were all about audio right and all you could do is play stuff through the audio there there was no video and the whole time they would try to and and somebody in marketing be careful marketing they’ll steal your ideas but the whole time in marketing there was you know they were trying to figure out what do we want to do what do we want to do to promote our product whatever it is and I said to them and like I said they took this and used it in a presentation I never got I never got excited for it but I said to them I said I mean have you ever thought about just being honest and just straight up saying if you can’t watch the game listen here yeah and just understanding you’re not your Ro nobody is going to say oh I’m sitting on my couch but instead of watching this game I’m gonna turn it off and and turn on the app right but instead just saying hey there are enough people whether they be truck drivers whether they be you got to take your daughter to a soccer game or whatever it is and then they took it and they ran with it yeah Know Your Role absolutely and I think that’s to your point that’s exactly what MLS is at least doing now to build it up like it’s like at some point it’s just about getting your foot in the door and this is getting your foot in the door because the first step especially for soccer is just credibility like if it’s not just a huge influx of money like what’s happening in the Saudi League where they just essentially pay for credibility to get Ronaldo and Neymar over there and things like that the MLS has had to like you said get David Beckham over here first and then now Messi’s here and you know Ibrahimovic was here there’s been you know there’s been tons of MLS or uh uh MLS old European legends that have ended their their careers in the MLS and now yeah like I said they’re starting to try to to try to do do it on both ends both get the the older guys here but at the same time this can be like you said almost it’s more probably like a triaa or or I guess you can say G League to where it’s you can see these guys before they pop out in Europe as well and then I think eventually the goal is to have your franchises be valuable enough to be able to pay these guys to where they don’t have to go overseas in order to to kind of be legitimate you could pay them enough to where it makes sense to essentially be in a weird way like the MLS needs a Caitlyn Clark right they need somebody who’s going to Champion their league try that’s the Clark wouldn’t have gone there somewhere better no absolutely absolutely and that’s the challenge that they have to do is maybe yeah that’s probably why Caitlyn wouldn’t be the right example it has to be somebody who specifically says I want to make this thing work I want to make this thing legitimate as possible and even then one person definitely can’t do it it’s going to have to be it’s probably more like a burd in Magic they need some sort of rivalry that people actually care about that you can invest in that year-over-year will bring you to back to the product would it help if us did better in the World Cups would that help it would help just general interest but a lot of those players are already overseas that’s what I figured yeah but this kid Cavin Sullivan he must be nasty he must be nasty he must be nasty definitely he’s definitely nasty we will definitely keep an eye on him shout out front office Sports from the 916 Chris this is from our guy folsome Mike I love how the Knicks play and don’t mind the refs allowing them to play but the the gamechanging calls are unreal the ridiculous illegal screen call in game one with 12 seconds left and then the refs completely bail them out of an 8-second violation with The harinstein Botch double dribble call I would have lost my bleep as a coach as well two gamechanging calls plus announcers who are giddy all over the Knicks it’s Lan except for Reggie except for Reggie that is from FSA Mike yeah and now I I don’t know this whole conversation we’ve had has kind of led me to where what is that line right between all right you’ve crossed over into this isn’t just homec court advantage this is unfair another word that you can’t say when it comes to sports or life Fair yeah nobody wants to hear the word Fair sure how many times growing up did you hear well life is not fa isn’t fair right exactly and that and that’s what I’m saying that’s why at some point it is with Rick Carlile it’s like if this is just how the series is like you know I get complaining in the hope that it does even out and that public pressure is essentially going to hope to bring that 49 number maybe back down to 10 to 15 or something but it’s just you have to adapt like that it’s not going to win you they’re not going to give you a game back by complaining or anything like that I don’t think that’s carlile’s intention but I I just think ultimately you know it’s maybe I I think it I think the the what he wanted to accomplish is already accomplished he just wanted to put public pressure maybe it’s one of those things where we shouldn’t really pay attention to what specifically he’s saying because it’s more just to get the point across and and to to you know go back and forth over the specifics of what he says wasn’t his actual intention but I I just you know I just think at the end of the day if he if any part of that was to hope for some sort of sympathy I just don’t think anybody’s G to care personally I just would say that’s the reality of the situation you got to learn how to play through it and deliver it back too like you know if they’re thing is like if you’re if they’re going to be physical like it’s too late now they got tiny Jaylen Brunson they got you know you got the bigger players you got you got Miles Turner out there you got Pascal fullbacks on the Knicks and and they play like yeah OG’s out now though too yeah and then here and here’s what and OG was balling yeah he was and here’s the here’s the thing right I do I think that the Pacers are down 20 if those first two games are Indi Indiana no but you know what somebody will tell you you know what the ogs will tell you well then you should then then you should have got home court advantage that’s that’s just how it is 916 339 1140 let’s go to our guy TC wants to be part of the conversation what’s up TC what you got for us Allan Chris what’s going on not much man not much man almost Friday hey what it hey it’s gonna be a nice weekend y’all but look hey check it out bro hey so what what I can say on that I’m not I don’t want to get too much into the calls and all that but at the same time this is this is is kind of what everybody was talking about when they was like all the refs were getting into it so you know what the Reps said I’mma take a step back everybody keep complaining about it we gonna turn it back in the 90s basketball this is kind of what everybody wanted anyway on the king side Mike Brown is always preaching physicality okay well this is right up on alley bro so as king fans we can’t be crying about calls and all that and honestly I like how the way the Knicks play that’s how I want the Kings to play like it’s cool with this finesse spray threo BS that’s all cool and fine and dandy but at the same time mix it up a little bit Mike let’s get greedy like the ncks I’m not saying we ain’t gotta be super greedy but we got to throw that incorporate that into our game plan so I think J Triano Mike Brown dou chrisy Luke LS need to work on that this summer bro because it’ll benefit us mike always preaching physicality okay well let’s get physical bro that’s all I got thanks for the call TC coming in hot on a Thursday nicely done pulling it back to the Kings and TC’s right if you ask Mike Brown which team would you rather the which team would you rather the Kings look like they look more like the Pacers and people have said the Pacers look like the Kings which is correct Mike would probably want them to look more like the Knicks as far as the physicality maybe a little bit more offense right I think they became that at the end of the season they did yeah but to your point they’ve been a level of yes a level of that and that’s Keon and can they be that be a different if stays can they be that if they only move off of Harrison and don’t move off of Kevin herder can they be that that is what Mike has wanted here’s the thing everything that we’re talking about as far as what Mike wants that was not with the actual lineup and roster and starters that they’ve been running out exactly so now when these guys get healthy let’s say they they let’s say they run it back again that you’re not built to be what they were at the end of the season now they lost a lot of games as well but they they’re trying to find Mike is trying to find some Middle Ground the last thing is it’s not a matter to what you said earlier Chris it’s not a matter of what happened right it’s or how things are being called it’s a matter of the switch up and how things have switched up we’ll see what happens as it ships over to Indiana and Chris will be all eyes on his favorite player Tyrese Alberton when we return where did demontis sabonis land in the MVP voting already see people mad on the text line about sabonis going to get snub for all NBA that can’t happen now right can it sty Watkins sown Sports

this the 2024 MVP from the Denver Nuggets nicoa joic and we congratulate The Joker who for the third time is the Kia MVP of the [Music] NBA congrats Nia yic another one another MVP his third MVP for yic and he is inevitable right that team goes through him I think now people might be well it’s a different team right we know Bruce Brown they lost a couple pieces but people might be thinking that he’s even more valuable than than before because of they’re getting worked by the Timberwolves even though the voting was already done by then but yeah man I mean I get it I understand it his usage is high as well his touches are ridiculous Jamaal Murray was out a decent bit this season they still get to a a top seed in the west and yeah it is what what are they the second seed who’s that Denver Denver uh they finished as the yeah two seed yeah because they’re playing the three seed and they have home court so shout out to joic he is who he is I think you talk about polarizing even though he doesn’t seem like he wants to be polarizing he just wants to watch his horses but yeah a lot of people are really confused not about the greatness but just about whether or not we should look back and he he can have all these MVPs where we have seen I mean last season was the the yic fatigue season that’s really what it was right and and was pretty great embiid was great but there was a conversation to be had and now it’s like okay well that was the that was the fatigue season let’s get back to giving it to joic yeah I mean yeah yeah I mean I’m not saying he doesn’t deserve it I’m saying LeBron deserved it for a lot of years too that’s all I’m comparing it to yeah but I think it ends up being a thing where you look back and you can actually see wise like embiid averaged 33 points a game last year he W like he won the MVP it wasn’t necessarily A joic was they were neck and neck and you know they just decided to give it to like like the the what I’m talking about everybody brings up the the St Nash MVP the Derrik Rose MVP ID wasn’t that he deserved it in his own right for sure yeah I I think he’s he’s proven to be one of the best players of this era of this generation for sure um I you know I is three too many I don’t think so I think he’s truly that great um it’ll be interesting to see how many rings he ends up winning I think that’s going to end up being ultimately what decides where in the top 25 conversation he’s gonna end up falling but three MVPs is special I mean you know Kobe gets one KD got one I think LeBron has four um so like he’s in very rarified error when it comes to 3 m PS and uh I I think he’s somebody who definitely deserves it I mean he’s 28 years old um or yeah 28 years old uh still has a couple years left in his prime like you said I mean he loves his horses we don’t know how I I don’t think he’s gon to be like LeBron and playing till he’s 39 but uh I I think joic is is almost underrated in terms of just everything he really does I think uh people see the numbers and they you know assume he’s he’s like what uh what our friends said about Deon bonus of course he puts up all those numbers he has the ball in his hands the entire time but I think it’s just not talked about enough how crazy uh Vision he has what how easy scoring is for him a lot of people are that big and he’s not super or doesn’t appear to be super coordinated the fact that he’s able to uh be as special of a talent as he is is just it’s insane to me and I feel like it’s not talked about enough I feel like he’s Luca donic in a seven foot three body in terms of just skill and talent and uh I just think that because he’s so awkward and funny looking I just think people like underestimate him before we bring this back to the Kings and where domas landed let’s hear from Shaq and just honestly just a cringeworthy situation I don’t do well with awkwardness normally I just talk through it and I actually haven’t even heard this audio I heard a clip maybe the first three seconds and when I saw what he said I I I stopped it when Shaq initially says what he says about him voting for Shay because I just couldn’t deal with the awkwardness and this is literally as their congrat this is the first interview he’s taking after winning the MVP award this is Joker as the president of the big man Alliance you are the vice president of the big man Alliance uh you know I love you the best player in the league I want to congratulate you but I want you to hear from me first I thought that SGA should have been the nbp that’s no disrespect to you but congratulations and what do you guys have to do to get back on track versus minesa thank you sh we don’t judge people here you know so that’s fine it’s your opinion I’m joking hey all good I love you I love your brothers one thing we always gonna do is keep it real with each other congratulations just okay it’s like nobody nobody asked nobody cared and it’s just I I just like I’m looking at it here too Shaq does not have an MVP vote like not an actual MVP vote right so it’s just it’s just very unnecessary maybe that was his point to say I deserve one I don’t know it’s just like why why are you making yourself the main character right now like I love Shaq Shaq’s his whole thing was a keeping it I’m but it’s like sha it’s it feels like when keeping it real Co you asking joic a question it after he won yeah doesn’t mean you’re not it real yeah it’s I don’t I I don’t know we we’re not assuming that all of you voted for yic you don’t even have votes it it honestly does it just doesn’t matter you can and you don’t have to have voted for him to still appre like you know it’s one of those things where just because you think somebody is number one doesn’t mean that you had to put and I’m not saying Shaq is putting him down but like it just was unnecessary it’s just so unnecessary I don’t know why Shaq decided in that it just I mean you know’s all fun and funny and it’s all great and like if this is the bad of having sha on TV whatever I’ll gladly accept it but it’s just like a all right like this moment really wasn’t about you and it just kind of shows that even you know and Shaq’s always been this guy but like Shaq does love attention and at the end of the day that’s what this is I think it’s him thinking oh a bunch of people are looking to me right now to to make a statement to not be fake and when in reality you know no and I and I don’t mean I mean it’s unfortunate but like I I am kind of making Shaq almost out to be like a clown where it’s like you know nobody just shut up and make us laugh but I just don’t know what you you know I I don’t I just don’t think that was necessary I don’t think anybody was thinking in that moment what does Shaq have to say for himself right now like how is Shaq going to defend his Integrity when he’s been championing sgaa it’s just I don’t nobody would have said Shaq is being fake and it’s just fear 707 what about the big man Alliance yeah Shaq totally pulled a Kanye from a Aon so cringe and a Aon also talks about Shaq’s ego yeah I mean to me you say something like that and I’m assuming other guys asked joic questions too because Shaq says what he says about Shay then talks about how they’re down 02 he didn’t even ask anything about winning the MVP no so I’m assuming maybe Shaq wasn’t the first person to ask a question that’s my thought process I didn’t see the whole interview but just a bizarre decision there by Shaq in that moment but it’s not about sha it’s about joic and if it’s not about joic it’s about domas Damon sabonis finishing eighth in MVP voting okay back-to-back top 10 finishes he was seventh in 2022 2023 he also got that third place vote for defensive player of the year and Chris this is from the 916 is it not a troll job for sabonis getting a vote for defensive player of the year and MVP and no All-Star and probably no all NBA you think it’s part possible he still gets he doesn’t get all NBA very yeah I don’t think he will I I would almost yeah I would almost bet against it I I just think me and WHYY were talking about it yesterday when I when I did the hour with him uh it just feels like with the NBA switching from not being positions to now just being the top 15 players you know it’s easy to say sabonis is the third Center in the league behind embiid behind joic or I guess without embiid this season maybe behind ad but you know when you’re just saying 15 players you get to throw guards in there obviously forwards in there it’s not I just feel like so and we already know people have a feeling about sabonis anyway uh I just think it’s it’s going to be a a tough task for him to uh to get that much favor I just don’t think it’s gonna happen it’s ridiculous it’s pretty crazy it’s pretty crazy and uh you know shout out to whoever like I said the other day it just takes one person and apparently there’s one person out there there’s one voter out there that really loves sabonis and thinks he’s a defensive Player of the Year and thinks he’s an MVP because it was just one vote it was one stray third place vote and I’m looking at an MVP tracker here shout out shout out our Sacramento voter Jason Anderson by the way who does have uh an MVP vote and did vote for nicolea yic uh for for MVP but yeah I mean I just think uh it’s one of those things where it’s it’s just going to be a numbers game and you know I think sabonis definitely played well enough to deserve it but you know at the end of the day this is is what happens when you finish as uh a play in team is that nobody’s going to have you as their first priority on these lists they’re going to make I don’t know if they’re still doing 30 for 30s but there will be a documentary on this if if joic keeps up this pace and he’s in all these history books and you see the lack of accolades either people are gonna say well it was just a very offensive driven age of basketball or people gonna say this is one of the the biggest shaft jobs that we have ever seen in the history of the NBA we just came across something okay and we’re crunching numbers here and this goes out to all to sell the farm make a big move at the trade deadline people and we’re upset that nothing was done something just came out we’ll discuss what it is when we return Styles and Watkins

remember correctly based on what the Nicks had for assets the Knicks had some pretty decent assets when it came time to trade for their guy OG and anobi yes right that that was one where it was RJ Barrett quickly and a second round pick right it felt like Detroit second round pick Detroit second round pick yeah pretty much a first round they said yeah RJ Barrett Emanuel quickley a 224 second rounder in exchange for ojan andov right and and Malak kin and precious auua who does get time from time to time and the reason I’m bringing this up Chris is because ogi was another another name that people wanted okay he is a free agent at the end of the season which is why a Knicks team felt more confident because they are the Knicks versus a Kings team or or another small Market team but I’m looking at these numbers as it now has come out when the Kings lost to the Knicks in in Sacramento OG and anobi he played that game he then did not play and I don’t know that he played when the Kings face off against the Knicks in Madison Square Garden OJ noi missed a ton of games all right now because I believe of a hamstring there is pessimism this is from Nicks account right there is pessimism internally with the Knicks about OG and anobi status for game three it’s from Ian Ian Begley reporter covering the Knicks for SNY TV there’s no official word yet on OG’s health status but late Wednesday night there was pessimism internally about n obi’s availability for game three of Nicks Pacers on Friday that pessimism remained earlier Thursday morning as anobi sore hamstring is feared to be more yeah than just a cramp it didn’t look like a cramp I’ll tell you I’ll tell you that much you want to know how many games OG anobi played this season okay he played 50 out of of 82 he played 50 games and this is not a one-off all right Chris and I were talking during the break OG noi misses games yeah you could argue very close to injury proone oh no he I mean he came into the league with two bad knees and and what that would have cost as a free agent you got to stay clear far and away from that guy man yeah I mean it’s it’s just a matter of if you believe in your training staff really I mean he he’s somebody like I said I mean he came into a league with two bad knees he’s only played over 70 games once in his career and it was his rookie year um you know he’s just not somebody that’s been healthy the bet is is that you’re hoping none of his injuries have been torn AC you know nothing as bad as what it was in college and uh the hope is is that as he gets older the further and further remov from those injuries he is uh the more likely it is that he’s just past that and and he can remain healthy but at this point it’s just seems like it’s always something it’s always something with him that that isn’t right uh whether it’s missing two weeks or or yeah pulling his hamstring or or possibly more and I don’t think he’ll be back for the series it looked really bad yesterday um I you know I I I just think this is who he is he’s an injury-prone guy and this was always the risk of trading for him and signing him long term is that he uh probably isn’t going to be healthy for most of these games it’s not good it’s not good and the Knicks they they made a decision they had some pieces OG and noi great game last night but I I’ve seen times where to me I thought he had a little bit more in his bag offensively like I said he baled out last night so I’m not taking anything away from him but when you look around at who was available this trade deadline each and every day Chris it seems like there is more Vindication for Monty McNair and his decision to St in Pat assuming he makes a move this and I don’t have to eat a Carolina Reaper yeah no I mean I I and then you know we didn’t even mention the Pascal seak numbers which uh you know have been circulating uh really for for the past couple weeks um about how he he’s really only done well in his first two playoff games and besides that he’s been really really tough yesterday he missed two free throws in the fourth quarter that would have been really clutch um and he’s been a good score for them I mean you know with their other star has been a little bit passive so Pascal has definitely had to uh had to step it up there but I think it’s it’s you know I I would definitely say that it’s been a little bit of of validation for Monty to see yeah I mean all of these trades they were great I think Pascal could have taken this team to another level but um ultimately with all of them struggling I you know I don’t know if he’s a 100 perc right you know maybe you can still make the argument like we said yesterday a trade that wasn’t made maybe you could argue the Kings could have been better but ultimately I I’m not super upset about them and I have never been upset said about them not getting Pascal not getting OG I always thought those prices were too high especially the OG one that’s just crazy to me especially when you think about the equivalent of what it would be for Sacramento RJ Barrett top three pick you could imagine that’s just Keegan Murray top four pick yeah Emanuel quickly six Man of the Year candidate Malik monk Sixth Man of the Year candidate were you really willing to get rid of Malik Monk and and Keegan Murray or at least one of them in order to get ogan anbi who like you said played 25 games for the Knicks down the stretch and is now hurt uh in some of their MO 23 games for the Knicks and is now hurt in their most important stretch and Chris this is about honesty and I’m not asking anybody else to to be honest but I’m gonna be honest here on these Airwaves I’ve watched more OG anobi over the last three weeks than I than I really ever have you know what I mean and it’s kind of similar to Pascal the thing is with Pascal watched him a decent bit when they had that other Playoff run when they ended up beating the Warriors but I I guess my point is a lot of people see these names and they watch highlights and they get obsessed with these names and they just get obsessed with something different and now that I’ve really just dug in and obviously Pascal’s not playing too well like I said I I didn’t you know I had an idea of what Oobi was I didn’t necessarily know now that I’ve watched him I I’m I’m thinking about him on the Kings team and I think he would have been a good piece yeah but the problem was to your point was always the price yeah way too high way too high you’re giving up way too much for a guy that yeah he can help like OG is the kind of guy that you bring in if you have like if you’re the Pelicans right like if you have a ton of extra just pieces that you don’t really know how it’s going to fit into your puzzle but you feel like OG is just a great fit to your puzzle then you just cash in those pieces for this one piece right the Kings and this is what we’ve been talking about when it comes to trades they just don’t really have the the the surplus of of assets to get rid of they have their guys that they like to play and if they’re going to remove it’s almost like a Jenga block if they’re going to remove one piece or two pieces they’re gonna have to replace that that with some real productivity they don’t have guys that they that have value but don’t play for them yeah yeah I just I I I saw that I thought you how many games did OG even play this season I thought 50 he missed 32 games he’s 26 years old yeah that’s the norm for him like I said he’s never played over he’s played over 70 games once in his whole NBA career and it was his his year his rookie year yep and even yeah and you know he’s played ever since he’s played over 30 minutes it’s been 43 games 48 games 67 games 50 games so you know even when he was playing a lot he W his first three seasons was his most consistent in terms of games played 74 6769 he’s playing 20 minutes a game 20 minutes a game and then upped it to 20 just under 30 minutes a game and then the following season he plays 43 uh 43 games when playing 33 minutes so it’s just I mean es and especially the way Tom tibo’s running these fools oh yeah he’s getting no day no days no seconds off and so you know those it’s all mileage right like at some point it’s gonna catch up with you and and you know when your body’s already not super healthy it’s it’s going to break down if you’re going to play too much if you’re going to push it to that limit and I think uh as we’re seeing with Josh Hart I just think it takes a very very special kind of player to play Under Tom Tibido and I don’t think ogan newbie is one of those players that I would bet could play 40 minutes a night for 70 plus games and then no you know two months in the playoffs too he’s not getting younger and he’s missing all this time when he’s 2 Kawai right 23 24 years old in terms of load management without the ceiling of Kawai so that’s that’s the issue and he was also in Toronto funny enough exactly when we return from the court to the podcast mik how would you feel if someone on the Kings did what this star is doing and has done for the last couple years of his career St and

[Music] docomo sports check us out on YouTube search sack toown Sports And subscribe [Music] uhoh Chris Watkins is boy before we get into podcast P that is Paul George this is from the ringer and it is called the on and off debate about Mr Double Down himself Luca donic an anonymous veteran assistant coach and I you know I hate the anonymous stuff an anonymous veteran assistant coach says you can almost sense quote a sigh of relief among Luca Don’s teammates when he checks out of a game here’s a quote wow it’s a sense of hey now we get to play it’s difficult to have any rhythm if you’re not touching the ball LCA ball for sure I’ve been talking about Luca ball for a minute yeah makes sense I mean you know Luca has had the highest usage percentage in the NBA for for years now uh and they’re like historically ridiculously high let me see what it’s even sitting at this year um and so yeah you know it definitely makes sense I’m not saying Luca plays a good style of team basketball at all I think uh I just really think that’s how good that dude is is that it it just makes sense to have he has led the NBA in usage percentage uh three of the last four seasons and it’s actually funny last season I don’t know who led the NBA in usage but last season was actually his career high in usage percentage so uh yeah the dude has been absolutely out of control when it comes to uh just you know making having the ball in his hands and making literally every decision possible for his team it’s it’s pretty insane it definitely makes sense why other professionals wouldn’t want to play with him because they’re like hey I Jaylen brunson’s like hey hi I’ve got a bag too I would I would like to display that but you can’t it when you’re playing with Luka yeah which is why found the balance they’ve TR they’ve tried to figure out well found the balance we’ll see they might get bounced in the second round they definitely might they people don’t know and I’ve said this Luca has is gonna have to change the way he plays do I know what that means no I don’t know what that means I don’t know I don’t think he has to I just think one year he’s gonna be so ridiculously great that it’s just gonna nothing else is going to matter how is this any different to what Kobe br rip of course famously said about Harden in that interview where he said you can’t win championships the way James Harden plays basketball how is this any different um well I would say it’s probably not much different because Luca probably plays the most similar to that James Harden style is possible but uh you know I think it’s the model is from The Source himself like I think the model is Kobe like Kobe was Kobe’s tripping if if he’s trying to he wasn’t himself a selfish basketball player uh I think the key is just understanding how to use that gravity gravity at the right moments because you know yeah I think there’s something to Luca is such a star if he does have the ball in his hands if he is scoring or assisting on all your points people are just going to gravitate to him which is he just has to find his teammates at the right time it’s you know Kobe’s still going to put up 30 in these games but it’s about when he drives in the last minute not selfishly taking the layup over two Defenders it’s about finding Pal Gasol who’s wide open in the dunker spot that’s the key for Luca and I think he’s good at it but you know clearly I think if if teammates continue to come out and talk about how tough it is to play with him especially in today’s NBA it might be something that needs to change I just don’t think he necessarily has to change in order to win I think he’s individually great enough to where he will have a good enough team around him at some point to where everything’s going to fall into place but you know if he wants to win multiple multiple championships and you know maybe be more like joic I think it would definitely benefit him a lot more but that’s just not the guy he is he’s a scorer joic is a passer right at least not yet and lukan can put up those assist numbers I mean he’s no Tyrese halber but he definitely put up some assist numbers from time to time all right saying in the west and a team that the Mavs and Lucas sent packing I saw this little promo for Paul George’s podcast and it just made me think if this was a king’s player right after the Pelicans how would Kings fans feel this is Paul George with a little promo for the newest episode of his podcast it’s not fun to be done at this stage uh yeah because I did not want to see you right now I didn’t think I’ll be seeing y’all in person for a good little time but uh here we are I’m still there with y’all but uh yeah still hasn’t hit me that we’re done you know he’s still you you just get so used to a a schedule and repetition that always stings and you never get used to that so G sounds pretty happy to me yeah he’s chilling and there so there’s two parts of this the first one is let’s say there’s somebody on the Kings and and right after we did that Pelicans we did the show after Pelicans Kings and King’s fans were just sad distraught and it’s been a couple days I guess right when since this has come out but now you got to see your star and there were games where Paul George did not show up yeah and now you got to see your star let’s say let’s just say dearen fox it’s easy enough or we could do sabonis right after last season after they lose to the Warriors a week later sabonis hops on his pod and says the same thing that Paul George is saying yeah I didn’t really want to be here but I didn’t hear that no I didn’t expect I didn’t expect to be here this soon and he and I guess he’s going to give a breakdown as to how he lost and you know Draymond did the same thing yeah there are not a lot of teams right and we tried to figure we tried to Google how many current players have a podcast we were unable to successfully do that I’ll probably do it while it’s Daddy Daycare and babies asleep so I’ll do that next week sure and there are not a lot of teams that don’t have to deal with that and the kings are one of those teams and I do Wonder how kings fans would handle I think there is a level of it is cool to get an inside view but in a situation like this where you got packed up I would I mean yeah I’d love to hear a a a non media driven thought on dear Fox as to how you lost to the Pelicans six times I would like to hear that but I do think there’s also a level of man maybe if you weren’t focused on podcasting you’d still be playing I I don’t know maybe I’m reaching here um yeah I mean I I think uh I think that people would enjoy it I definitely would I I love the player podcast just for that exact reason I like to hear the Insight I like to hear damont sabonis say what the locker room was like because we can’t figure that out because they don’t let Media in uh quick enough to get the gauge of the locker room which is a different story but I I think it it would be uh it would be interesting it’ be very interesting I mean just to hear how the tions are how he’s personally feeling it would be great I mean I would have loved to hear his thoughts on what actually bothered him you know we think that it’s the fact that he was too in his head but maybe he would say you know what it was actually bothering me wasn’t what was in front of me it was Draymond on the weak side kept continuing to crouch over and it just threw me off it would be nice to know the insights the ins and outs and um you know I think on podcast people definitely lie all the time you you know PE athletes like to say it cuts out the middleman and I get to tell my version of the story unedited but part of the the the bad part of that is that you know they can just it’s almost propaganda they can say whatever they want so um it would be nice to to get to hear from the players side what they feel about things but uh you know ultimately yeah there’s always going to be downsides of your players of having too much access to your players things will come out that probably shouldn’t come out you know sabonis going on his or whatever anybody going on the podcast and saying you know no yeah Malik if it’s a continuation of what we heard at the end of the season Malik’s gone Malik’s going to go get his money I think at that point people would be saying I hate this podcast why do we have this podcast why would you say that on a podcast so you know there would be there would be pluses and minuses I think it would be dope I really do think it would be cool to get some form of insight because the Kings have never had anybody to my knowledge that has really given uh that level of insight to what’s going on I think we as fans we loved the the run series because we got to see even a little bit of those Locker Room videos and things like that uh got to see the training camp videos that’s where Mike Brown turned the Jets on came from so I think the more of those things we get the more insight we get to the team I think it’s going to lead to better but with all good does come some bad and yeah there’s going to be players who will hop on the Pod and say things that you know we’re probably going to run with like no it sounds like on the podcast maybe sabonis wasn’t too happy with Mike Brown taking him out of that game like is this a thing is there a rift and you know a podcast might create drama that isn’t actually there or it might create drama that wasn’t there that then becomes a thing because of it so um I ultimately think it would be cool but you know it would be bad it would be very bad at the same time I also think there are two parts of this and two levels of fan right I think that you like the insight and you can remove your fandom to get that Insight I do think there is a level of fan that just see sees the fact that you lost right and sees some dude doing a podcast and that is annoying them because you’re not playing basketball anymore and you you are a basketball player to me I’m a fan of the team you need to be playing basketball I don’t care about why you lost so I do think there is probably a split there 916 3391 1140 would you like a podcast from somebody on the Kings or would it bug you in losses are you on Chris’s side who would be the best podcaster that’s what we should have callers calling who do you think would be the best podcaster on the team can we not Keegan Murray of course can we not say Malik because he’s a free agent say whoever you want then it’s Malik right is that is that really it could be we’ll discuss when we return on the other side of the break that’s right we will discuss when we return s of Watkins the NFL’s leading rusher plays here a hand off to mcaffrey Walks In The

in 15 minutes it begins the beginning of the end bigs you want length heyo you want what Carl Michael Dave is always talking about in his commercials that’s at 12m Chris Watkins gives his free agent list for The Bigs and I’m looking at some of these names I’m I’m I’m taking a a sneak peek y’all and there are some names that you know I do think out of all the positions fans what from what I’ve noticed fans love a free agent big oh yeah more than any other position so we know you didn’t like we know you did not like the guards you like the forwards and the wings a little bit more but I think you’re really going to like this free agent list that is in 15 minutes less than 15 minutes now and we do want to take some time to just talk per in the league and how it is it’s exactly that and maybe it doesn’t feel like that Chris because of the Warriors Cavs but we are finally on track which has been a long time right because you had LeBron dominating the East before that you had Kobe before that you had MJ you got Steph Curry mix in there as well and we are really in one of the most parody filled eras of the NBA maybe maybe ever maybe ever no it might be ever it’s seriously might be ever because the NBA if you do your your history search it’s pretty interesting how it’s just like 60s is Celtics it’s all Russell 70s you know you start to kind of get Kareem and and Oscar Robertson and things like that in the 80s it’s just Bird magic in the 90s it’s all Jordan you start to get some of the Spurs towards the tail end you get some of the Lakers towards the tail end and then the 2000s you get Lakers you get Spurs uh you get you know like you said LeBron Steph Kobe all of it I forgot about I didn’t say the Spurs it’s just it it’s it’s the NBA has been a league of dynasties it’s just been what it is Celtics and the Lakers have I don’t even I think it’s much over half of the the titles that have even been given out so um it’s been a league where there is no parody at all it hasn’t been like football at all but to your point you look at the last five years of of finals it’s Rafters vers Warriors in 2019 you’ve got Lakers vers heat in the bubble you’ve got 21 bu bu for Suns then you had Warriors Celtics and then you had Nuggets heat the heat are already eliminated this year and the nuggets are down 02 you’re about to have what is that five years six years of of a different of two different teams in the title now I know you know the Warriors are the only the warriors uh and the heat are the only two teams to have been in the past five years but not in consecutive years but I mean I think it truly does show what we definitely saw in the west this year it’s a tough League it is a tough League maybe tougher than it’s ever been and uh I think the fact that it pretty much says that in any given year if things go right it could be your year I I think that’s really what this NBA has told us we kind of thought or some thought I should say that last year was the just the start of a new Dynasty with Nicola yic and the Nuggets but you know I could very easily see Minnesota winning that series and going to the finals this year maybe this is finally the Celtics year to win a title and I would say for next year I I would have no idea who I would give as my favorite I don’t know because porzingis is has ended up being unhealthy in this in this uh in this playoffs which was always the big fear with him I don’t think that the Celtics are still going to be in the conversation but I wouldn’t confidently say right now going into next year the Celtics should be one of the top two to three I would think so but uh there’s no guarantee there with Denver no guarantee Minnesota you would think but uh OKC is still going to be up there you would think I just think that there’s never been as many options to win the title I don’t think this many teams have realistically been able to convince themselves we can win a title this year going into the year as we’ve gotten these past couple years in the NBA and I think it’s good I think it’s good for the league I think it’s good but I think the overall health yes is it good for top dollar the top dollar in the Casual fan I’m not sure because I’m looking here Chris Boston Celtics I’m on FanDuel Boston Celtics still have the shortest odds second they have for next year oh for this year for this year so have the shortest odds next season the Timberwolves or next next team the Timberwolves the Thunder after that and then the Knicks and then the nuggets and then the Mavs so I’m thinking here Chris as far as a a top dollar St point I don’t know what it is about the Celtics that like we talked about yesterday they’re probably one of the best teams you can’t say best teams ever because they haven’t won anything but one of the best teams we’ve seen to to do what they’ve done in the regular season and not really bring any emotion they’re kind of boring in a way Jason Tatum the way he plays is weirdly boring I don’t know why but I think everybody would probably agree with that in some way Chris I’m looking here as the t-wolves are already up 2 you talk about about keeping an eye on the reing and we’ve spent plenty of time on that as well you got to think Adam Silver is hoping for Timberwolves at Timberwolves Knicks that’s what he wants I think he’d rather the Knicks than the Celtics and I don’t even know how close it is probably right from just the the sheer entertainment and from the gaining the massive audience the Knicks would probably do it because of the the Big Brand because you could sell it on this hasn’t happened in so many years this is going to be a spectacle all of it uh yeah the Celtics are a bit of a a story that’s been told before this would just be there’s nothing really besides the fact it would be the first title with this group and they finally it would there exactly we’ve already told that story plenty of times I don’t think there would be anything I don’t want to say significant about the story because winning a title is significant even if it is uh still a team that’s won a ton but it just doesn’t hit the same as the Knicks it doesn’t you know why I think I figured it out it doesn’t hit different if the if the Celtics win because it doesn’t change any narratives it doesn’t change anything because how of how good that team is unless Jason Tatum put on a show and he’s still he’s not Anthony Edwards he doesn’t have the Showmanship it’s not who he is he’s almost like Mike Trout but he’s not as good as Mike Trout is at baseball it doesn’t change any narratives Jason Tatum does not jump unless he puts up 40 a game and wins finals as MVP he doesn’t jump the team is too good there’s going to be a game where Derrick White steals a show it’s gonna be a game where Jaylen Brown steals a show it’ll be a microcosm of the whole season so I think the difference is if Anthony Edward gets in right that changes narratives if the Knicks get in that changes narratives the Celtics they they missed their window of people caring yeah I think so I think that again that story’s been told I think people are just at this point it’s like yeah just win it just get it can go away ex and the Nuggets nothing changes joic is already going to be yeah top player of all time so I think that that is the most to gain as far as if I’m Adam Silver that’s who I want I want I want and I don’t even want the Thunder because you know I don’t love how Shay plays well and the more that you can build up the better for your league right if you have more it’s not if you’re telling again if you’re telling the same story of the Celtics the Celtics the Celtics that’s not really building anything if you’re if you’re adding if you’re all of a sudden like you said adding the Knicks and the t-wolves to Champion conversations that’s adding two or one more team to the conversation of wow like yeah the nuggets the Celtics people are still whether they’re right or wrong they’re going to say the Warriors the Lakers uh you know Miami all these teams are going to have chances it just adds more names to to the pot coming up next Chris’s big free agent list

Chris’s free agent list by the way from the 916 on the text line CR from Chris definitely think javil would have the best podcast I I think that’s a good one that’s a great shout that’s a good that’s a good one 916 I like that for sure on the text line con too I saw one on the text line it said it had a whole name and everything from amid Rock best podcaster I think would be Colby Jones and Mason Jones huh they can call it cmj square pod that is from a mid Rock and Manny to legit says Keegan Fox and monk should have their own podcast it’s too many people Manny too many too many cooks in the K too many cooks you got to have a host then you have the mediator who we never know who they actually are but they’re there and they’re always so comfortable and you have from Joe Jose friend of the show Keegan’s podcast would rate various styles of milk and how delicious he thinks they are spoiler alert they’re all delicious all right keep them coming who would have the best podcast as a Kings player and honestly it’s it’s happening soon and I told you this and dearen fox still trying to have him on the show and I told you this I said we’ve seen a lot of we’ve seen a lot of combinations before with all these podcasters right we know R knows ball okay dear and Fox’s partner Ray Fox what about those two doing a pod where they talk ball yeah I’m telling you I think dear would be the one who doesn’t want to do it that’s probably right that’sa right think would be totally down dear’s like ah that would be unique all right before we get into Chris’s free agent list I found this and you know I cannot help a good parlay with just ridiculous ridiculous opportunities we’ll say so this person what would you do all right text line call line Snapchat 916 3391 1140 what would you do what side of the fence are you on Simone we’re going to get your take on this as well this person put in a $100 and you know if and you don’t know because in California you can’t do it but once it looks like you’re getting to a certain spot you have the opportunity to cash out okay this person from via DraftKings placed some cheese on the Thunder the Chiefs and the Rangers all winning championships obviously they’re two for three right now oh wow they’re just waiting for the Thunder they put in a hundred bucks they can cash out right now for $1,076 okay or they can hold on and if the Thunder win they win $1.7 million are you are you are you holding on for the 1.7 Millie the Thunder up one0 or do you cash out at 100K I would love to hear ‘s eloquent response firstly uh I would uh I would probably I would wait it out I would still cash in but I’m not cashing in right now I would let OKC get closer to the final first and then I would cash out oh interesting I don’t think they’re tonight I think that they’re going to at some point be closer than this because if they get two wins then I would imagine that it goes if it becomes like a fear is that it becomes a game seven situation and at that point you kind of need to to get the win at that point in order to probably make more but I would bet on well not literally but I would I would Bank on them making the Conference Finals and uh and then I would probably cash out I don’t know if they’ll make the actual finals I would cash out during the Conference Finals this is a foolish question just because I don’t know there’s no way it it’s not going to go down right that amount they can’t be like now it’s only going to 7 if they start losing no I think it would it can fluctuate yeah I think I think it would go down yeah I think where you’re heading Simone is probably where I’m heading I would it probably does get to the point though where you couldn’t like if they go down 3-1 like I don’t know if I don’t know if the in theory I don’t know if the casino would still honor that because they would be like well they’re about to lose so no I’m not gonna cash that in because right I you’re going to make zero dollars instead of me just giving you 70,000 am soft I am absolutely cashing out at 100 right now yeah I think I’d probably yeah I would get scared if it’s one or the other I would if they got to three 0 I’d be excited as soon as the Mavs won a game as soon as it goes1 me too exactly as soon as that happens I’m I’m cashing out all right time for Chris’s free agent list what do you got for us today Chris we’ve got the bigs today uh and the forwards I think people like people seem to like the for forward list um definitely more than the guard list uh and I think that’s just has to do with Team need and the fact that uh frankly I mean I think I do think the list of forwards is just a better list of available options centers I I really you know there there’s things there for sure but uh I didn’t love the list of centers uh we did get a decent amount though I think there’s just under 10 guys uh that I have it’s just targets these are just guys that should be on your radar I think um for for uh the Kings to potentially go after and I do want to also shout out for the forward list uh Obi toppen I didn’t have Obie toppin on my list shout out Bobby Gerald uh responded and and put that as a as an addition Obie was Obie was crazy yesterday for about three quarters definitely would love to see that version of obie topping on the Kings but also looked at his numbers and uh was really surprised Obi shot 40% from three this year uh that’s really big for him uh and speaking of big let’s move on to the bigs and starting with this first one this is one that might not make a lot of sense on Surface I will give uh give that a as a note but yonas valent chunis uh is a guy who plays with demonis sabonis is a fellow Countryman of demonis sabonis uh in in Lithuania and um you know I I think the fit isn’t perfect I don’t think it makes a whole lot of sense to start both of them definitely I think the thought would just be this allows you and this is probably more of a Malik is gone and you do need some sort of steady bench presence right I don’t know where Jonas is at where he feels like he’s at in his career he’s a 32-year-old center who has played a good amount of NBA basketball has been in the league since 2012 I don’t know if the Pelicans view him as a starter I don’t know if he views himself as a starter if he’s willing to kind of do what Malik did and come off the bench but be a de facto 20 to 25 minute per game player I think he can be very very useful it allows you to play without damis sabonis out there for 40 minutes he’s a more than useful Center is a big body uh which is something the Kings kind of struggled with I think it’s why they when Alex Len was out there he was so noticeable is just he adds so much size and physicality Alex slint and valent junis you could um you wouldn’t have to but you could I don’t think Len would get minutes if yonas is playing but you know obviously if yonas goes down it’d be better to have Alex Len who’s you know no disrespect but probably a poor man’s version of that um so Jonas Valen chunis is a name I like but is more of a situational addition but still somebody I think has some value for this team uh even though he’s not a perfect fit uh maybe precious auua someone who’s in that Nick series uh and is just a he’s just a grinder man like this is your modernday uh Kenneth fared your your Montes Herold this is just a an absolute energy machine uh offensive rebounding Monster uh can get double doubles I think he was top 10 in bench double doubles this season um so can be productive in a limited role he’s a little small for for to be the only big man out there but he is also really quick can move really well if the Kings want to play a high Pace um style of basketball I think he’d be good for it I think he’s a lob Target uh I’m not really super familiar with uh just exactly how explosive he is as a rim threat but I definitely think there’s a lot there just from an energy guy and uh I think you can mold him into kind of whatever what ever defensive guy that you want him to be Jaylen Smith is a name Whitey and uh and Jerry Reynolds both really high on uh he was drafted in front of Tyrese halberton somebody who uh you know I think Phoenix definitely regrets that they took Jaylen Smith at number 10 instead of taking Tyrese halberton uh it would be interesting to see his fit with the Kings he’s more of a stretch big kind of funny enough he’s on the Pacers he is a little miles turnery um and I think he’s somebody Who You’re banking on has a little bit more to grow you’re kind doing the second draft secondary draft thing where he’s passed his rookie contract and maybe he wasn’t you know groomed correctly in the NBA and can use uh a little adjusting in a in a in the right situation I think Jaylen Smith would be a good addition isaah hartenstein kind of same thing I said about precious atua just a better version of it his thing might be I mean he’s playing 40 minutes a game right now with the Knicks if the Knicks want him back which we don’t know Mitchell Robinson they got Julius Randle they might not have the same minutes for hartenstein but just watch just watch this playoff series if you want to get what Isaiah hartenstein brings yesterday he almost had a triple double so uh a little bit of playmaking in there that I wasn’t sure he had uh so obviously you know when you’re going to be backing up to mon bonus it’s great to have some playmaking so you’re not just completely doing different things maybe you can run a little bit of the same actions when sa bonus isn’t out there same thought process for Mason plumbley Mason plumbley is probably more of a personal thing for me really like plumley’s game two years ago uh was was up near the tops in the NBA in screen assists which is a number of sabonis is always really high in so I think again just kind of having that that same kind of mold for your backup big as your starter Andre Drummond just went crazy Andre Drummond went crazy this year off the bench had tons of you know 15 15 games uh is somebody I definitely think you want in tiny spurts I don’t think you want Andre Drummond playing 30 minutes a night for yeah like I think those days are over I remember like I think there’s like a Bleacher Report article from like 10 years ago at this point where they said oh looking 15 years into the future who are going to be the best players in the league Andre Drummond was number one on that list he’s so far gone past that but he is still uh a decent piece and and uh somebody I think would bring some physicality and some size to their bench I don’t know if it’d be a good fit for the style of play the Kings play but Andre Drummond’s definitely somebody with some Talent Daniel Ty just kind of another energy guy um he plays for the Clippers as well so it plays in a winning situation Goa baz that’s a personal favorite of mine he’s a shooter this dude can definitely uh I think with a bigger role he can have a big impact he’s kind of a stretch five a bit um really like his game really efficient doesn’t get to play a ton for the magic but in the little bit that he does play looks really good Luke cornette fantastic player for the Celtics another guy you give him some opportunity I can see him Thrive Alex Len on the list I just think Alex Len has shown throughout the years what he can bring last one I have on here is Thomas Bryant who has a player option for 2.7 million he’s on the Miami Heat he’s infamously in the picture uh where LeBron James breaks the scoring record he’s posting up asking for the ball uh in the post so that will forever be memorialized but uh Thomas Bryant really good hustle guy really good rebounder still really young he’s 26 has been on some good some good teams was on the Heat last year he’s on a different team every year yeah he is he has literally pretty much been on a new team every year of his career and uh has has just really not found a situation where uh he he’s been able to find a role I think in Sacramento uh if he were to be giving a given a similar opportunity that we saw Alex Len and javil given this year I think he could do that I think he can play 40 to 50 games for you and give you pretty good Center minutes plus yeah he’s still young so I think there’s still a little bit of meat on that bone to uh to maybe make him an 82 game player I have thoughts I’m sure Chris does as well and I’m sure you do as well on this list we will get to them coming up next 916 339 11140 if you want to be a part of the conversation Styles

yesterday kicking it into toomas what did they have to say that they love Sacramento Sacramento is growing Sacramento is beautiful definitely beautiful this time of year the we didn’t even get to take them downtown they’ll be returning and you know I do think it’s a bit of a Hidden Gem in a way which is really funny since it is the state capital reason I’m bringing this up is because I do think at some point you know Sacramento is never going to be the same Market as La it’s never going to be the same Market as what we just talked about with New York or anything like that but this idea that Sacramento will never ever ever ever ever ever because of the 90s or whatever that they’re just never going to get a free agent I just I just think it’s gonna end soon I don’t know who that person is gonna be I don’t know if it’s going to be Paul George or or a huge name but we’re also not bringing up the biggest of names unless they’re trades so this idea that you’re just unable the the kings are unable to ever get a free agent besides a free agent that they did get right so I just don’t understand why is it that people is it that you just feel scorned because of Sacramento that it just it just upsets you the words free agent just trigger you yeah is that what it is yeah I mean I think it’s just the Kings also haven’t been good fre it’s it’s less about first of all the city of Sacramento is being built up every single day all right you’re going to get the A’s next next season for at least three years second of all freea agents you know they don’t go to small Market you know where else free agents don’t go to teams that stink the Kings don’t stink anymore okay so do I think that the kings are ever going to be in the Runnings for the top free agents in the league probably not but that’s also not what we’re talking about and that’s not a Sacramento thing no that’s a b the Celtics don’t get free agent the biggest Celtics the free agent is Gordon Hayward I just I don’t understand why people get so upset it’s just it’s people like to you know feel bad for themselves for whatever reason I can’t explain it but I I truly think that’s what it is is that people have to find some reason why they’re always going to be AE like why they’re going to why it’s never gonna work for my team why is everybody against my team oh free agents and it’s like again we’re not I’m not picking the top names from the free agent list I don’t have James Harden on any of these lists I don’t have any of the top free agents on this list because yeah I mean those it’s not even a Sacramento thing it’s just the Kings aren’t in a position they don’t they’re not in a financial position to get any of those people first off second off they’re not in a I wouldn’t think a a competitive enough a competitive enough position to entice those people like I think Denver can maybe start to get to that level but I don’t even know if players would would want to sign up for Denver so I I just I don’t know I I think it’s too much I think people just like to uh to feel bad about their teams and and will always try and say oh you know yeah this is why things never work out for us nobody ever picks us we’re always the bridesmate never the bride and uh you know at some point it it’ll change it’ll change because you’re right like Sacramento changes every day it seems like and it’s no longer The Cow Town that it felt like it was in the 90s and now there’s you know you got K Street you got J Street you got R Street you got just going down 16 you can do so many things downtown you got fulsome if you want to live in El Dorado Hills and and uh you know be with with people who are of your tax bracket sure like there there’s tons of stuff to do here it’s not like it’s it’s a city that has absolutely nothing to do sure for maybe 100 millionaires yeah there’s not much privacy in the city to go to but uh I I don’t think that being in Sacramento is going to affect Mason plumley’s decision I don’t think it’s gonna affect you know maybe Andre Drummond wants would rather be a bench player in La than Sacramento that’s that’s fine that’s whatever but for it’s not going to completely hamper your team building just because you’re here in Sacramento I guarantee Jonas Al chunis pre chichua Jaylen Smith I guarantee all of these names would consider Sacramento because at the end of the day there’s only 30 places that can offer these guys a job and you’d be stupid to say no I’m not going to go to that place because it’s it’s ugly to me like that’s that’s ridiculous from the 530 are you denying Sacramento has a stigma that’s different than other teams in the NBA well 530 I would need to know what exactly that stigma is but what I do have in front of me Chris is I think sorry I think it’s just more that like I I think we just overhype how excited people are to go to the other market like I I just yeah like we did this in a way a couple days ago right it’s La it’s it’s Miami there’s a couple destination everybody else is fair game Let’s yes let’s stick to the Western Conference okay is there really a difference between I mean besides financially obviously because we’ve discussed the Florida the state taxes about but like yeah EX that’s more way more of a factor than you really think there’s that much more besides maybe Orlando is not the right example but like Orlando’s maybe okay maybe Orlando’s not the right example but there’s there’s tons of markets that are you know OKC obviously even Denver like I don’t know if Denver Utah for an NBA player I don’t know if that’s better than well I have this let’s go through them you got the Blazers okay Portland Portland’s great Simone’s Simone’s a Portland a portlandian but you know it’s it’s great but I’m talking NBA players like there’s no okay there’s nothing wrong with the city of Portland but Spurs all I know about San Antonio is a Riverwalk and stuff about that jokes that Chuck makes Chuck Charles Barkley that I’m not gonna say on the air yeah next up the Grizzlies Memphis come on what what are we talking about Barbe sure Utah Jazz Chris is bought bought up Utah you got to get in pretty early there they got curfews and things definitely after that you got the Rockets Houston I I don’t know what to do with Houston he Houston’s great I’ve been to Houston the stuff you can do in Houston care be careful out there in Houston I know Houston for a different reason that I will not say on the airwaves next you got the Warriors Bay Area sure I’ll give you the Bay Area we won’t argue that one New Orleans is confusing to me the city is great sure but the market I don’t know nobody cares about the team there they’re not get my point I don’t think they’re getting I don’t think a free agent is oh I’d love I maybe the City of New Orleans and I don’t even know how much of that is the city in terms of living in New Orleans versus going for a Bachelor or Bachelorette party or going for a zido dance or or something like that besides living there or going for fat thank you I’ve done plenty F Tuesday versus living in New Orleans all right and as Vegas we’re not yeah we’re not bagging on Cities next you have the Lakers fine of course Phoenix Malik maybe for golf yeah I hear golf is great there I mean commun are we really how how much are we taking Phoenix over Sacramento and for these names sure for these names equal just this just the cities right after that Dallas don’t know what to do about Dallas everything that I know when I’ve been to Texas it’s about Austin stay weird in Austin or where you know the other cities Dallas last side checked Dallas was one of those more they were trying to build up their own kind of tech Hub in Dallas all right I haven’t I have not been I’ve been to Houston and I’ve been to Austin I have not been to Dallas sure you want you want to take Dallas you could take Dallas I went about 10 years ago the downtown is is thriving for sure there you go Okay so we’ve counted about between besides the obvious ones in the Lakers the clippers because they’re in La as well and the and the Warriors ni too I’m I’m only doing West for now just for fun just for fun we can do the East after so I’ve count Warriors son Warriors Lakers Clippers I can fine you want to put the Texas teams in there sure you want to put Houston hon Houston Dallas I don’t Houston Dall San Antonio yes so that’s five are we put in New Orleans I don’t think we should I personally agree with your take on on New Orleans where I think it’s a fun it’s Vegas to me where it’s like it’s a cool place to visit a place for sure great food yeah but you know in terms of yeah if you’re looking for there was a Zion joke there but I’m not goingon to say exactly by the way I mean I’m sure whatever put New Orleans okay so five there’s 15 teams in the west obviously so we’re at five next okay and I’ve already counted Clippers after that well we have three more teams because I went in backwards order so now we have the three top seeds Minnesota no no I mean no no different than I don’t know why you say Denver don’t know why you would say any different Sacramento’s still a top 25 media market like it’s a it’s and last but not least the Thunder yeah so there’s no way Sacramento I would again Sacramento is above okay so five or six and two of them are in La yeah and nobody wants to talk about free agents okay because it was a countdown a long time ago y i I just I don’t think it’s as as as downtrodden and as dark as people think maybe I will maybe I will get a reality check this summer maybe I think it’s more of it was the reality when the team sucked I mean essentially like yeah nobody’s G to go to Sacramento when the team sucks and the market is okay because that will then bring down the market but when the kings are good you can start it just feels like it’s just not that much of a a big deal because yeah you don’t want to be on a losing team and have nowhere to go I would say the kings are winning and there’s enough to do to where it’s not it’s not at overall negative like I I think when the team is not good I would say maybe the city isn’t a positive enough to to balance out the scales but I think when the team is good the city has more than enough to offer to make it worth your time I think it’s just the fact that it’s not actively working against you like maybe it was in the ear in the late 90s uh or in the 90s in general in the early 2000s I would say now it’s not hurt it’s not actively hurting you it might not be helping you necessarily but I think it’s at least keeping it afloat 9916 3391 1140 be a part of the conversation does talking about free agents make you sad St Watkins Sactown Sports Keegan Murray plays here

us why and here’s the thing you’re right Chris the Kings don’t have a crazy amount of money to throw around so it’s hard to say let’s say they don’t get I I still don’t think they won’t get anybody but let’s say they don’t get anybody on any of your free agent lists they just get some smaller pieces they do what they need to do through trades right whatever then people will say well that’s because they can’t get free agents and it would and then it would actually be well they can’t you could say it’s the market but it’s also a couple things it’s the market it’s how you’re viewed as a contender and it’s money right and I think that they’re in a better place but no are they in a prime place if they had a bunch of money to throw around it’s the Giants last off season before this one where they had they were trying to get judge and a couple other guys and kareah was here for a day and then he left the Giants had money to throw around they were saying hey we’re offering the same amount well does anybody want to take our money does anybody want to take our money and that’s San Francisco and nobody’s taking the money then you had people come out and talk about San Francisco as a city and things like that and but the team was also that that team is not ready to win a a World Series so it’s not as if it’s not as if the the Kings have so much money and people are just refusing to take it maybe that’s how it was in the past but truthfully the past is the past and it is what it is yeah there used to be a king’s tax yes pay three to five million extra dollars to get your guy got a couple here Chris this one’s from the 530 responding to the stigma and they said Cow Town we know it’s different now but cowbells and Phil Jackson calling sacka cow toown is still the stigma to the outside right let me let me say something these players that are in the NBA Anthony Edwards didn’t even know who Alex Rodriguez was who was an owner or is an owner of the Timberwolves these dudes don’t know what Phil Jackson said all those years ago they don’t care single clue they do not care there’s probably I’d be surprised if there was two NBA players who could give the reason why Kings fans ring the cowbells that’s a great point they’re probably just like oh yeah it’s just something how many players on the Kings know why no none maybe like again maybe javil maybe Harrison like the oldest guys on the team yeah theyve probably been told but did they know when they got drafted exct did Keegan know first game he probably hey why are theying what is it what is that or is it just a noise maker I do not think that’s a stigma I just will I will continue yeah I don’t think so anymore I will continue to say that the kings are just in the same situation as any other small Market team I do not I do not think it is any worse it’s not that there’s not a tier difference it’s just they’re not alone in that they’re not but it’s not big markets middle markets small markets do and then the kings that that’s not Sacramento that’s that’s not well unless Mad Dog everyone probably thinks mad dog it is mad dog we give you we give you a $300 million do a show out here probably say can’t do Ito can’t do it all right the next one Chris and this one is interesting as well the kings are aren’t just any run-of-the-mill small Market team they are historically bad like in all of the major professional sports small Market teams how people don’t understand that being historically awful hasn’t set this franchise back for probably forever I don’t care but they’re past that is what I would say I don’t think like and now maybe they’re on the start of a new drought but I don’t I think that as crazy as it is I do think the one or whatever you want to call this past year if you want to add that as a second year of success has truly changed it like I do think people see that Sacramento has a stable GM if they keep Mike Brown yeah it’ll be a stable coaching situation they have not traded off any of their Stars besides Tyrese halberton in well by next year it’ll be pretty much three years that they’ve had the same Fox sabonis Keegan Murray that will have the same core everybody who is paying attention will understand the situation stabilize sure if you turn on yeah first take or whatever skip bis’s show is these days yeah they’re probably going to still treat Sacramento like it’s the mid 2000s but I think in the league I think if you talk to players if you talk to execs if you talk to agents I would tell you that they will probably say Sacramento is a stable situation they don’t View Sacramento the same way they would view Detroit or Charlotte I think those situations are clearly worse than the situation the kings are in now which is all agents care about is the situation I am putting my client in right here right now they’re not thinking oh M unless you really have a vendetta against VC you’re not thinking oh yeah they’re gonna go right back to the same 15-year drought that they were just in I I just I think that people are just and again I I just I moved out here not too long ago but I think that everybody is overselling how much people care about the past especially 23 24 year old dude does anyone bring up Minnesota sucking Minnesota had the second longest playoff drought does anybody even know that I don’t think so Minnesota by by the way speaking of the Hornets Charles Lee has agreed to a four-year deal to become Char Lee The Hornet head coach which means that JJ reck will be the head coach of the Lakers soon sooner than later but this is what we’re saying right this is what essentially what I’m hearing from if if history matters okay and because the king have been so bad free agents would rather go to the Pistons than the Kings because the Pistons won a championship in ‘ 04 right they have they’ve had technically more success than the Kings so right now in 2024 free agents would rather go to Detroit I don’t even think you have to go that drastic e like Atlanta Hawks which is a better situation right now for your client the Atlanta Hawks who have every single player on their trading block except for John equ money for all the deals that we’re making up in our heads I just don’t see if I were if I cared about basketball and which situation which basketball situation I would want to put my client in at the very least to the point of the argument I don’t think I would think of Sacramento any worse than I would think of Atlanta and if anything I would say Sacramento is in a better basketball situation I would rather have my client go to the better basketball situation even if Atlanta is bigger Market the way that that team is currently constructed it seems a lot more of a mess and like there’s a lot more question marks in that situation than in the Kings and Atlanta’s not a Detroit they’re not a Charlotte they have Quinn Snyder they’ve had Trey young they went to the Conference Finals what two three years ago so that’s a team that’s had recent success they’re in a big Market but I don’t think that situation is a situation that people would rather have over Sacramento quickly just going through we had Joe on the sack chat talk wanting us to talk about the Eastern Conference so I have him here Pistons no Wizards it’s a weird one because it’s DC but I say no no Hornets no Raptors Drake don’t even go to the games anymore people actively don’t want to well in the past if we’re bringing up past right in the past people have not wanted to do all the headache that comes with playing in Canada Brooklyn I guess technically it’s New York Hawks to me that’s the same as it’s a bigger Market but I just laid it out you right right I put them in the same category as the the Dallas’s of the world they’re not sportswise not huge but besides the Cowboys but you get what I’m trying to say fine I’ll put the Hawks there but my finger is kind of half up because of the situation Chicago sure y Miami sure Philly sure indie no Orlando no Cavs no Milwaukee no Nicks yes Boston yes so all in all that’s seven plus a five so that’s 12 12 over the 30 team so again half the league pretty much that’s 12 yep that’s 12 all right and now you guys are moving the gold post somebody’s saying 916 the tax thing too yeah we know about that we’re talking about Sacramento we’re talking about Sacramento 209 Well w is enough to make sa a better situ I don’t we’re moving the goal post just admit that you want to be sad because in the past you’ve been sad but you don’t have to be sad anymore it’s okay the kings

clock clock clock clock clock clock clock clock clock clock got to get out break break break break break she wasn’t saying that she’s too nice to say it like that but 209 was asking the question is wemi enough to make San Antonio a better basketball situation than sack and I would say probably at some point for sure but um you know I you know I there’s going to be a level there’s going to be a limit to it for for sure like yeah maybe role players will be down to sign up and play with Wy but it might not be you know they still might not be able to get the the BigTime free agents to do it but yeah I mean you know at some point again when it’s more just an equalizer of if all things are equal then yeah the the play or the team is is gonna set the thing over the top yeah and okay I mean I I think that and I don’t I’m saying this like I’m not watch up in an OG but I do feel like a lot of these dudes they’re living such a luxurious level of life especially with social media now and things like that that they can have fun anywhere is that’s what I was thinking too or it’s it’s either that or it’s the inverse of they’re so rich that you know things that we think like oh yeah but doco is sick it’s like they’re not they’re never hanging out in doco ever so it doesn’t matter and to that point like maybe there’s only a certain amount of cities that can even provide the things that these people want and again it’s either it’s just a matter of the halves and the Have Nots where yeah there’s five markets that have things for these hyper rich people but 25 other markets just yeah I mean like there it’s again it’s all created equal because Sacramento has a bunch of stuff going for it but how much of those stuff is for Middle to you know the the normal people and not for these multi multimedia millionaires who you know yeah have to be in mansions and private security and all these things there might not be anything for them in in a ton of markets well then look at sa bonus right I mean he lives in Napa F right I mean depending on what these people like to do and now I sound like when I was getting pitch to start working here you’re so close to Tahoe you’re still close enough to the city you’re a quick flight away from La you can you can you know my when we moved out from from Virginia my my parents were just so they were just so surprised I me telling the rest of my family you you can ski in the daytime and and go to the beach in the night time it’s it’s crazy out here so it is it is it’s still California man and I think look you pay for it I know somebody’s texting about the taxes right now but I I think you cannot sleep on it you just got to get people to here yeah send them on a what do they do the kid the the the the players now they do it every other year but you know go on visits you know what I mean me if if you get them in the building how about this I mean that’s what’s always happened is every every player who has ever came here has always loved it here every time when when they are actually here they have nothing but good things to say there’s a famous story about Chris Weber literally crying as he’s Landing to get here because all he sees is you know dead grass and cows and everything Chris Weber by the I mean you know there was definitely some ups and downs with the relationship but by the end of it Chris Weber you know he was here couple what like a month ago and right had nothing but great things to say about the city and uh you know ended up signing a long contract at one point like everybody Pia vlat uh you know you see Bobby Jackson you see Doug you see everybody still hang out here they can go wherever they want and they still have some connection to Sacramento even again even Brad Miller a guy who you know touched some of the good years but definitely got a lot you know some bad years as well here in Sacramento he still loves the city so I I think that there’s uh a good track record of people who have once they’ve been here they have a great time and never does it cross their minds oh this this doesn’t quite have what what I’m looking for you know fun and maybe I’m reaching here but you know what’s funny it’s funny that a lot of people in Sacramento feel like they deserve because before this whole thing happened with and we know how VC feels he wants Sacramento to take over the world yes and every day he wants an event in yes yes be before the a thing came became official even before that and and now sacr people in Sacramento feel like we deserve a baseball team we deserve to have a team we’re going to be great fans Major League Baseball we’re going to convince them that they need a team out here is it a culture thing because of basketball because how can those same sacramentans feel so confident about having a baseball team deserving a baseball team being able to support keeping a baseball team supporting a baseball team but on the other side we’re never going to get any free agents because it’s Sacramento right I don’t get where that splits off yeah that’s definitely interesting for sure you you can kind of yeah see how that could could be viewed as talking out of both sides of your mouth you’re like yeah it’s uh I don’t really have a good answer for that because I’m not one of those people yeah but those there those people definitely exist for sure um I don’t know I I think that uh I think maybe it just has to do with you know that doesn’t necessarily have to do a 100% in people’s minds with you know money like I mean that is that is just a that has more to do with emotion and civic pride and things like that and not necessarily the you know not the Allure of the city itself are you waiting I can’t wait for the baseball team to come to Sacramento so we can complain about fre just not coming to that team because I’ll tell you what it’s it’s a lot worse in baseball right the halves and Have Nots is a lot worse especially financially right because you can do whatever you want with money yeah you’re not getting there and judge here that’s for sure I mean yeah not with the money that they they would have for their team better move that fence in like Frankie’s ballpark move it in so I can hit that home run like I’m going to do little toy park at Suter heal all right off to Trad land and the Fallout from Pat Riley’s comments Jimmy so I think Jimmy had his exit interview after Pat Riley had his and some audio came out from from Jimmy there’s also a heat Insider Wes Goldberg who had some things to say first this is what Zack low had to say about the fallouts from Pat Riley he was like and this is a quote he was like no I’m going to hit him with the jab and then the right hook and be pretty blunt about it that opened up a lot of eyes around the NBA let’s put it that way my phone was lighting up during the Riley press conference they are maybe ground zero for the NBA offseason starting right now so that’s not just Jimmy no that would be I think Tyler hero I think there are a lot of guys that people would be interested in Duncan Robinson everybody shoter out there your guy that you just brought up on the on the guard free agent list so no I was thinking of the Caleb uh Caleb Martin Caleb Martin as well so here also is Wes Goldberg from locked on heat saying what he expects to happen with Jimmy Butler the window’s closed and if the window is closed then you have to consider if you’re the Miami eat well then how do we get this thing open again and the answer to that is not giving Jimmy Butler more money as he gets older and not and worse at basketball that’s not the answer so I’m going to go far as to say this I think the the the smoke and the fire and the noise has been enough I at the point now David and it’s not that I’m rooting for this I’m just telling you what I expect I expect Jimmy Butler to get traded this summer bye-bye Jimmy and it better not be to the Kings for Keegan Murray yeah I mean there’s a lot of there’s there does seem to be lot of smoke behind it I mean between just Bes besides just connecting the dots in general I mean I do think um well let’s just start here let’s start with the the what what led Wes on this route do you think that Miami’s Championship window is over yeah I would agree I would think so like if Jimmy’s gonna I don’t think they ever had one well I mean they were in the finals last year and they didn’t win it yeah but they could have I mean they shouldn’t have been there okay well if your Championship window is going to the finals then are they done going to finals yes okay there we go then yes I would I would say that that if if we agree on that then I would think that trading Jimmy to me makes the most sense because then you’re just paying this guy essentially to to do a Kobe right where it’s just hey we’re not trying to win but like we just want you here to have to keep some form of legitimacy for us because if you’re on our team people will have to take us at least a little bit seriously right and what’s the value of that really you know it’s the question of what does what does being in purgatory in the NBA do for you nothing absolutely being a five through uh a playing team does not help you if you’re going to be that for three to four consecutive years and that seems to be where Miami’s going so if if you’re somebody who believes that then I think it makes a lot of sense to trade Jimmy but if you think there’s still one little run left with Tyler hero still young bam atab bio entering his prime Jimmy on his last and yeah absolutely Hae hakz if you think it’s just if you believe that that’s Heat fans heat that Miami Heat what do you mean if the heat believe that there is one little run left in the window then you make it I mean then then You’re Gonna Keep Jimmy and you try and yeah ship off Duncan Robinson and get another piece that can maybe help you you know be be better than you were this this past season because it did not whatever happened last year did not happen for Miami this year and they need to figure out how to how to try and capture that again because yeah they’ve got small pieces that are important for them dlon Wright uh you know they got Caleb Martin leaving they got Thomas Bryant leaving they got tons of players who who make heat culture heat culture guys who are ready to step up through 82 games they’re walking out the door so they’re gonna have to uh retool a little over there I feel at home man I really care about this city I really care about the people in this city Miami has embraced me they’ve wanted me to bring them something they haven’t done since LeBron dwade and C Bosch and I want to do that so as soon as I get this knee back right I’m back on the bleep and everybody know it They Don’t Love You Like That Jimmy it is cooked it is well done like my family likes their steaks all right when we return we discuss another star leaving their partnership sou Watkins second Down

Sacramento from the power business bus technology Toshiba Studios your Flagship station for the Beam Team can we light the beam the beam [Music] baby sack toown [Music] Sports Sacramento has a new tag team in the midday it Styles in Watkins on sack toown Sports someone coming down Chris’s Road what else not not not fully you can tell you know they call you Watkins so they’re friend of the show from the 530 Watkins and I don’t know if this is necessarily you I think this was me uh oh uh oh oh actually no this is actually spicier than I thought no it’s actually Simone com are you 53 spraying everyone are you 530 no 91 what we have name we say tapao Tuesday Wasabi Wednesday we don’t have one for Thursday because once I read this we’re going down a road the 530 wants us to go down we need to think of it help us text line what’s this what what helps what’s good alliteration for Thursday a spicy I’m gonna deploy the Snapchat as well Carolina Reaper Thursday that’s too much it’s not that spicy all right I’ll read it while we think of it from the 530 and we’ll just take this as stalon Watkins because I’ve been the one who is not high on Jimmy more than more than Chris from the five 3 you seriously wouldn’t trade Murray for Jimmy buckets that was you Murray is so overvalued in this town from the 530 nicely done 530 wow is he overvalued I just think both things can be true though like I I still think it’s crazy to trade Keegan but yeah sure he’s probably he’s definitely I mean that’s what but that’s what every fan base does every fan base overvalues their guy ask golden Warriors what they think kinga’s value they’re going to tell you it’s through the roof they’re going to say I don’t know if we want to throw kaminga in KD trades like it’s it’s just it’s what every fan base is gonna do um I mean I I actually I was the one who said you have to at least think about it I think ultimately you don’t though like because of of Jimmy Butler’s age I mean we just played audio from somebody in Miami who has seen Jimmy Butler play and has said I don’t think I want to sign up for the next three to five years of Jimmy Butler so Sacramento should have some hesitancy in that as well yeah um I I you know I think that it’s not a given to to trade Keegan for Jimmy Butler I probably would keep Keegan but is Jim is Keegan overvalued here yes but I don’t think it’s that far off of what his actual value is what what Monty McNair himself would value Keegan as well is Keegan overvalued yes is has to be too because he’s the king’s best asset is every young Prospect over valued in their front office and in their fan base yes and that kaminga pole is perfect it it it they probably think you can’t they probably don’t want to get rid of Moody what about Moody P jsky there’re you could find a warrior fan right now that would say what do you want for KD all right but but pmy and Trac we can’t throw them all in there right we can’t we gotta keep some of them who’s GNA carry the torch for Steph when he’s done so yeah is is Keegan probably a smidge over value I will say this for parties that don’t have any anything to do with Sacramento I’ve never seen Keegan less than top four on a on a list of his peers yep yeah so for his draft class yeah for his draft class so as far as his value goes it’s not as if we’re saying that and he’s number 10 exactly he’s top five in everything yes top five in everything but I still no I’m not but I didn’t even answer question 530 I told you and I’m G tell you again I’m not trading keeg I feel like Nick Sabin I’m not trading Keegan for Jimmy Butler so stop asking asking I’m not doing it Jimmy why did why are the heat out um they ran into the Celtics probably why else are they out um who are they missing Chris uh who were they Jimmy didn’t play oh yeah that’s right yeah Jimmy got hurt well yeah yeah yeah he got hurt in Jimmy is 34 I believe turning 35 how much can he say on the court okay it’s a totally legitimate question everything that comes with Jimmy he’s got his side just called him out because he doesn’t play games and I think this is what Jerry Reynolds told us when we asked him the other day he said well you know the Kings like I mean look at the season they just had sabonis played 82 games Fox played what 75 they still were the nine seed or the eight whatever they ended up being Jimmy Butler played I don’t even know how many games did Jimmy Butler play this year I think people like the idea of Jimmy Butler more than J I love and that’s that’s been my whole pitch is the idea of Jimmy but I love that’s what I love most about Jimmy isn’t even the guy that he is I’ve said he’s a dog sniffing dog That’s What We the Kings need they need a guy who can diagnose oh Daren he’s got it I’ve been around him I know I can go to war with him uh this I don’t whatever throw a random person Kevin herder I don’t think he’s got it he’s got the same thing he did in Minnesota is what would want him to do here in Sacramento but you’re right like Jimmy Butler the actual player at this point you know I think there’s a bit of narrative building there’s a bit of uh story building where Jimmy is this you know ultimate David verse Goliath story where you know there’s these Monsters of LeBron and T everyone’s trying to Crown these guys and Jimmy nobody talks about Jimmy but Jimmy’s just a grinder and a hustler you know leads we do have the P Pat Riley sound if we’d like to play that him talking about on Jimmy Butler hear it so we played Boston four times I think in the playoffs since Jimmy’s been here so you know you do develop some some dislike for the other team but they are this year I think the best team in the league with the best roster in the league and made some great moves Brad Stevens did a great job in in getting holiday in porzingis they built their bench a little bit differently and uh you know for him to say that you know I thought is that Jimmy trolling or is that Jimmy serious you know if you’re not on the court playing against Boston or on the court playing against New York Nicks you should keep your mouth shut and your criticism of those teams keep your mouth shut and do your job Pat Riley Jimmy Butler has not I just talked about o newbie Jimmy Butler has not played 70 games since he’s been in Chicago since he left Chicago oh yeah Chicago Bulls was the last time Jimmy Butler played over 70 games when was that Chris that was 201617 2016 I wasn’t Chris I wasn’t I wasn’t washed up yet yeah that’s how long ago I wasn’t washed up yet was on no probably not Max perhaps you were on baseball reference wow that’s how long ago it was I had two healthy Achilles 59 games 65 come on man 55 come on 58 527 47 points and then 60 this year really from the 530 responding to us and shout out to the text line on fire I’m seeing some some thoughts on the on the saag chat thursty Thursday that meant something different back in 2016 I’m tell you that I was thinking thursty Thursday we could because you thst yeah so hot you know right it is getting hot or something TC is gonna tell us it’s hot my response is Jimmy buckets for Murray requires no thought unreal with three exclamation points and first of all I don’t think they would do that straight up you they would want more straight up camp you you’re giving up more than Keegan for Jimmy and Chris just read off the numbers again the idea of Jimmy Butler versus actual Jimmy Butler from the 916 if Keegan is overvalued why does everyone want him in a trade LOL drops the mic 916 I mean the king’s also you if you’re the Kings you have to overvalue Keegan to almost protect yourself because if you I mean if you you don’t overvalue him then uh that’s how you run the risk of just having no good young players and and you know I just I think it’s what you got to do it’s got what you everybody does too so I don’t feel bad about it I think Keegan is is and it’s not ridiculous will not be moved unless it is something that is ridiculous and I think maybe some of this is scarring from the halberton trade still too you know you know who is overv valued probably and maybe you can correct me if I’m wrong when we we talk about I don’t know why the we talk about Trey young leaving clutch does that mean he’s out on the Lakers and I don’t I maybe this is a reach here Jaylen Johnson on the Hawks right sure he’s Untouchable but the rest of the roster isn’t the Hawks don’t believe Jaylen Johnson is going to be an other worldly player but they’re in a situation where they look like a mess and they’re trying to save face exact that is a player who is overvalued by how many people would would be clamoring for Jaylen Johnson you would want him sure he’s got some he’s got some things he can do right but as far as their value versus the market value on Jaylen Johnson that is nowhere near the king’s value for Keegan versus the market value for Keegan you could have had se yakum you could have had OG they said no on Keegan and there’s a reason for that all right when we return continuing the conversation keep all the good info flowing people are feeling good yeah it’s almost

Thursday it has to be right we’re work on it we won’t settle my own personal hotline uh was suggested little Friday which I understand isn’t whole an alliteration but I still think it’s cute I posted on my Instagram story and this is a guy who I used to work with and he’s he might be around your age Chris and I posted something we were out grabbing a bite to eat having a bevy and I took a picture of it and I said happy Friday Eve everyone and he responded saying come on man shut it down shut it down he’s said come on man you’re better than that I like Friday Eve I don’t mind Friday Eve where is on the cornball scale I don’t hate it I I don’t hate saying it I maybe hate posting it whoa yeah it’s that high on the cornball okay on a scale of one to Russell Wilson where is it it’s it’s pretty it’s pretty corny huh it’s Prett very corny very cring you know you’re dad it’s fine you’re just getting into your element you know it’s just a little like I think I say I get a gray hair every time I say it it’s stepping towards dad being overly friendly with the waitress you know where it’s like what you know it’s just like hey yeah hey hi I’m I’m Derek and we’ll be your clients today or whatever

this person either it works every time like this is a proven method that’s what they said what AM my hitch what’s going on here the numbers don’t lie the first time I heard Friday do that even mean I work every time they happy Friday SS like there’s a large frequency you get a you get a response is what I would assume he’s just cooking up on Thursday yeah yeah yeah because my buddy was telling me I guess yeah you gotta buy premium for these dating apps now yeah you can only send a certain amount of messages on the free version and you premium or you can only see certain things unless you pay unless you pay everything is just going towards those microtransactions man I’m telling you well yeah I mean it’s just different it’s it’s just clarify you can see it coming one out of 50 one out of 50 every time you know yeah works every time there’s a there’s someone that that wishing for a batting average that high somewhere as we continue the conversation keep them coming cool or corny as we continue the conversation I don’t think the the audio is super necessary but Jamal Murray spoke for the first time after his incident and I have the transcripts reporter Jamal did you expect any punishment from the league Jamal Murray nah it is what it is I take full responsibility on to the next reporter was it just frustrations that boiled over Jamal Murray yeah on to the next it was two days ago not much to say reporter were there any conversations with people to apologize Jamal Murray do you have any basketball questions these are basketball questions I think end of conversation you know those are those are reporters asking the questions that people want to hear right that’s that’s those are tough questions and uh you know that’s that’s kind of what we were saying right when we when we talked about you know the the people saying uh people weren’t asking Tough Enough questions right you know sometimes this is this is sometimes why it leads to this is because okay we want to ask the hard questions we get these nothing answers and you know I guess it’s hey if Jamal Murray wants to uh not answer those questions and and sound a little suspect and doing so then that’s on him that’s his decision but at least you asked um it’s it’s just you know I don’t love those answers I think Jamal definitely uh I guess he doesn’t owe anybody an explanation but at the same time to act as if it’s not has nothing to do with basketball or has nothing to do with the story of the series it’s like dude what I think the the the question that the reporter can’t outright ask but I would be tempted to if Jamal’s going to be snarky is you almost got so upset or whatever your emotion is that I’m trying to find out that you were so that emotion you were willing to take yourself out of game three or the possibility of being taken out of game three why was that what was the feeling what led to it do you regret that I think those are all totally fair questions and Jamal just completely he could have just had something yeah he have just had something hey not my proudest moment whatever got to move for you can still say gotta move forward but you know just just dismissing it and acting like you’re crazy for bringing it up is I mean that’s disrespectful it’s like that’s where it’s a two-way street and like you know the media’s trying to do their job can you help them do their job yeah not great for Jamal Murray and but honestly Jamal Murray he’s a baller he basically has the easiest job right I mean he’s he’s not the face of the team that’s joic he gets to show up when the playoffs start or for every game that’s on ABC he only shows up for Prime Time games and playoff games he’s got a pretty easy gig and I guess Jamal Murray just figures I’m not really that guy and I don’t I’m not ever gonna be what he’s never been an Allstar right I don’t I don’t I’m not gonna be a face of the league I don’t really care I’m just here to play the two-man game and that’s one way to do it yeah I mean I I would not recommend doing that I you know I I don’t know if uh and do New Balance commercial I yeah I don’t know what his his calculus was behind it but you know I think clearly he just didn’t want to be asked about it but you know it’s it’s something that needs to be answered because again like he he was clearly frustrated enough to take himself out of the series and potentially end their season I mean if you go down 3 0 nobody has came back from three in NBA history so you’re you’re pretty much just sweeping your team underneath the rug and uh you know I I do think it’s fair to ask ask him questions about why about what made you so upset uh were you actually upset was it was it frustration was it did it have to actually do with the referees were you upset about your team’s performance about your personal performance I I don’t know I think uh I just think it’s a little bit uh a little bit dirty for Jamal to to act like the reporter is the stupid one in this for for asking these pretty obvious questions that need to be asked yeah like did he expect nobody to I mean because from my understanding as well Jamal we had our little Podium gate and all that Jamal Murray has left I believe the last two games without answering questions yeah and I guess so this is the only time they had they’re really using their Champions can do whatever they want they’re really using that leash pretty pretty much to the extent that they can yeah Chris and I think you make a good point I feel I feel kind of torn because I was the one who yesterday said that I didn’t really like what Patrick Beverly said on his podcast of that’s opportunity to phrase and shape things the way that you want to right Patrick Beverly tried to explain what happened he wouldn’t get into detail on what was said and I said come on man just own up to it he did start off by saying I have to be better I will be better which is a very famous term that a lot of these guys use I don’t think he apologized no but he said I have to be better I will be better than explains what happened without saying what was actually said I will say this though Chris Jamal Murray doesn’t apolog the reporter asked you know were there any conversations with people to apologize I will say this for guys and we know hey you don’t know you’re not a you’re not a professional athlete you were never in the locker room it’s a Brotherhood things like that that is the one thing I will say and maybe a text was sent to from Jamal Murray to somebody on the Timberwolves but that’s the last thing I will say you could have hurt somebody yes so hey you might not you might not need to apologize to us nobodies but I would hope that you apologize to the Timberwolves and well your team I’m sure he did but I would hope that you apologize to the Timberwolves because you could have injured somebody yeah and that to me is different than it looks bad face face of the team leadership conversation right that that that is what it is fine but you could have hurt somebody yeah and then what happens after that because what happens if like you’re throw laying out there what if Carl Anthony towns is the that slips on it and then all of a sudden t- wolves are no longer in yeah they might get through the series but that would be crazy they then can’t win the championship because Carl Anthony Town slipped on a heat pack that Jamaal Murray threw quickly if that happened let’s say Carl Anthony towns takes a shot yeah slips rolls his ankle does he now get suspended that’s what that’s a great question because that because yes there’s no way he there’s not a chance there’s not a chance that he wouldn’t get suspended yeah he absolutely would have gotten suspended probably longer than Patrick Beverly did if you throw multiple things on the floor and then one of those things gets a player injured I don’t care if it even is like a you know the sabonis Stomp and it was like oh yeah sabonis had to have chest X-rays I don’t care if it’s even a small injury at that point you have to get suspended you have to there’s no way and that’s what’s I guess hypocritical about the what the NBA ended up doing finding him a ton finding him more than what you typically would but not suspending him it’s like it’s either it’s just like what we say with the late whistles it’s like it’s either a foul or it’s not it either is something that you can suspend somebody for or it’s not it shouldn’t result shouldn’t matter shouldn’t matter if the ball goes in or not shouldn’t matter if somebody ended up getting hurt or not the reality is you put it in a situation to where things could have gone wrong coming up next funny story about a former King from a GM and also from the guys and we see you Stephen we will get to

the radio or in front of somebody during an interview that was me yesterday Chris so when I when you got asked that question yesterday by Simone and she asked you the snap of the glove and the of a bat which one do you like better and then you’re over here all right here we go here we go Story Time with Cardwell okay so we’re sitting here you guys are talking about it and all that stuff and I’m sitting here thinking to myself while I’m at work like dang that’s a really good question like that’s a solid question and I was sitting here thinking like oh this was in the previous show like I was thinking she asked us and put it on with you guys because you know Allen being you know the in-house baseball player that Pro so I get on after AAL gets on for that for that for the rest of the show and I ask him the same question thinking like oh man what do you guys think of this great question that Simone asked and I was like she asked it in the last hour and then WHYY after I hung up why he’s like uh no that wasn’t in the OR it wasn’t in the last show it was in the last hour even and then they had a good old moment with it so I felt kind of embarrassed a little bit my question to you long winded long long winded what’s the most embarrassing thing that’s ever happened to you during an interview with like someone famous or maybe on the radio have you guys ever had that moment where you just look back at yourself and you’re just like o cringe man I’m trying to think if there’s anything specifically yeah thank you Stephen of course uh I’m trying to think if there’s anything specifically in Vegas that happened that maybe I can’t think of anything that’s sticking out but the only the only only that was like a pressure test of right I have one that I can’t share I don’t know I I could share it to you guys after but I can’t share it on I don’t know if this is the most embarrassing thing that’s ever happened but just off the top of my head I mean I’ve had plenty of embarrassing things but I as far as what Stephen is saying the only thing I can think of is we were interviewing we were I think we were we were interviewing Alec Engel okay and I had my timeline hashtag somebody said Marvel Thursday I had my timeline wrong for Alec engel’s time on the Raiders oh okay so I it was either I thought that I asked a question where I thought he he didn’t make it to Vegas or he was not with them in Vegas and he was in Vegas and he was very nice and kind of slightly said oh I actually was that’s not funny or anything at all but that’s just the first thing I can think of off the top of my head I thought that it was something to where he I I thought that he was still with the the the Raiders and he wasn’t or vice versa something like that that’s just I mean you want talk about embarrassing stories not not in yeah yeah oh I did have one this was this was at the other station and we were interviewing Steve cerr and when you listen back when you listen back it’s not that bad but in the moment I was just freaking out so Steve Kerr would come on every Thursday and it was just and I was filling in of course and it was you know pull the curtain back when Chris and I are in conversations and Chris and I it’s our show so we know each other a little bit better it’s kind of a look right and you kind of raise your hand if you want to add on to a question but we just kind of go pity Pat back and forth so Steve Kerr first time interviewing Steve Kerr you know a little nervous of course and I’m this is not my show it’s the it’s the DriveTime show and we’re interviewing him I’m all Juiced up I’m putting it on my social media and it was one where the host asked the question I don’t know what happened man I don’t know if I got lost in thinking that I had just asked I don’t know I don’t know but he asked a question Steve Kerr answered and I’m looking at the host and the host is looking at me like dude it’s you it’s your turn and there’s just dead silence and I listen back and I’m like trying to convince myself I’m like it’s not that bad really tell you know maybe and it killed me man it killed me that’s like that’s one of the the the more embarrassing ones I had I feel like I’m far enough away to tell the story of Alex Len and uh and the the uh during media day that was definitely number one for me that I feel like is is funny enough but also uh you know touches the line of like ah maybe you shouldn’t share it but I think it I think it’s clear uh yeah during what was that media day me and Whitey were out there and uh talking to all the guys they all gave great interviews and Alex Len funny enough was probably one of the the best interviews we gave um but obviously you know no no laughing matter at all but Alex is is from Ukraine and the the Russia Ukraine war had had just kind of been I mean it’s going on and you know he’s just kind of in the throw of it and uh we asked Alex like hey obviously um if is there anything we can we can do is there any charity we can give to is do you have any uh you know personal connections that that if King fans want to reach out and help how can they help uh and Alex Len’s answer which me and YY joke about all the time is uh he said well we need weapons yeah and uh that just wasn’t quite the answer we were looking for we were looking a little bit more for like charitable donations you know hey Red Cross is always a great organization and Alex said uh no we can you we can use some Firepower and I was like all right don’t don’t quite know if that’s uh that’s about board something yeah it was definitely something definitely was a great can I share yes because I just uh just destroyed our poll I put up FR or I put up Thursday Eve when I meant to put up Friday Eve so I

other check but we can we can share Z is that better no I can’t he now we good there you go now so who is it I just want to all week we’re just starting off with who’s on the show Jay is back today Jay is back speaking of launch angle Jay is back yes and then draes is back on Monday gotcha yeah very then who is it well I’ll save tomorrow for tomorrow oh it’s me and Jay tomor okay it’s j dear yeah there you go sure great stuff what what hat are you wearing there uh you don’t recognize it what is that orex buffalos from they playing Osaka I only recognize the seaweed so oh yeah Japanese there you go yeah and it’s today you know I’m wearing it today is 5950 day it’s 59 5950 day what does that mean 5950 makes the hats hat 5’9 5950 59 there you go yes they make the hats they make the hats have known that can you get a Gus Johnson they make the hats they make the hats that go on your head there you go WHYY what did you make of Jamal Murray just a little bit short on his answers really didn’t want to spend too much time on it do you think that he do you think that he should have said something more to maybe and I said Chris maybe hopefully he sent a text to the Timberwolves or something because forget about us right media you can even say forget about the fans their whole thing is we’re in this Brotherhood yeah not like us you’re saying not like they’re nicely done wait are you done with the beef by the way are you done with the beef track the why because I haven’t had a chance to talk to Jay about it because he’s been gone so I got to see what he says then it’s like okay that’s today that you’re talking today yeah oh I cannot wait I been loving the new Kendrick too oh I know he’s all over this is the most I’ve ever seen him tweet he’s all over it but you know yeah it’s this we’re we’re a Brotherhood there’s only so many of us NBA players and that’s really where I got to with this as far as all right Jamal you don’t owe anything to anybody else but I really do hope you sent something to the Timberwolves because that’s pretty messed up if you’re not going to do it publicly I hope hopefully you sent a text to somebody yeah I to me I understand your point it’s a good point to me too much is made of that already and if yeah if any of them had a problem I’m sure he’ll deal with it but the problem for them is they’re just you know they’re they’re getting disemboweled and they know it and that’s that’s what’s going on and it’s easy to blame the officials but they they’re the defending champs in two games in and they it looks like they have no chance so I think that’s the larger thing I think it’s frustration because of that you know that’s got to be a hard thing to come to terms with like we can’t beat these guys when’s the last time not an excuse but I think that’s what’s going on right right and I thought he should have been suspended at least for a game but when is the last time I feel like why do would randomly know this when is the last time a team won a series after losing the two first games at home uh 20121 Clippers did it to Dallas I think wow I was going to expect Whitey to just throw a random date that’s what yeah yeah it was actually January 7th Clippers beat Dallas after losing the first two games yeah I think so it was it was and I was it the other way I believe that’s what happened Chris we were talking and I continue to apologize to Oklahoma City when we were discussing the Kings playing the Pelicans and home court advantages I mean the Clippers have the worst homec court advantage in the NBA right I would think so I mean I don’t know what their appetite is out there for Clipper basketball obviously the Lakers just have strangle hold on that entire I have one Clipper fan I I have one Clipper think ever actually met a Clippers fan like a Bonafide Clippers a great point I have one very few of them yeah I don’t even think I’ve seen somebody you know say yeah know I’m not a fan of the clip or I’m not you know they’re not my number one but workaholic guy yes that’s right yeah it that’s it didn’t we do a segment on that with football teams once yes we did yeah I was like we didn’t know any that’s what it was we found a couple it’s weird there’s some Pockets there yeah there’s some Pockets that just don’t really have much of a national F like it’s just kind of hyper local or in the area um WHYY I’m curious too we were talking a lot about uh the Rick Carlile stuff and obviously I assume you’re G to talk about it so not not gonna step on your segment but I think the thing oh good don’t worry about it I think we were we were the thing we the angle we took with of it um was do you think there’s a way to voice your disaste with how a game is being officiated without coming off like a sore loser if you’re on the losing end of things or will it always be a ah you know you just sound like you’re complaining oh you wouldn’t be saying that if you win is there any way of doing it correctly or is it just something where you know if you’re Rick Carlile I don’t really care I just am trying to get a point across that yeah it’s a good question and it’s funny isn’t it because he tried both ways here first game’s like oh we’re not going to get any and then we’re g to submit it all I think that’s a 78 Miss calls yeah that’s a it’s a playoff tradition coaches realize you you know squeaky wheel gets the grease yeah go I mean going all the way back you know Adelman and and Phil Jackson and they would both do it and I think coaches do it because I think there’s evidence that it works and it’s part of coaching and he probably knows I’m going to look like an idiot a crybaby here but I’m going to do it because might benefit from it do you think that it has crossed over from the two first games in New York and I’ve been complaining about this for weeks with the with the Knicks right do you think that it has crossed over from home court advantage to all right we have to make sure that this thing the balance isn’t we off or do you think Carlile is hey I got to do what I got to do basically what I’m asking is do you think it’s been Fair the games in New York uh I don’t know you know I could understand why the league wants the Knicks to do well and certainly there have been some calls that suggested that there’s on some level maybe it’s subconscious there’s an effort to make sure the Knicks do well and that takes us again all the way back to uh you know the Lakers and the Kings and when Rick Carlile talks about small Market we’re a small Market team but we should have a chance that NBA I think at some point has to address that they have to at least acknowledge that a lot of people think that Raptor Raptor coach did it and they lost to the Lakers yeah yeah so are they just gonna ignore it that’s what they’ve been trying to do it’s a really terrible look for the league and I mean I buy into it to a degree so I think at some point the league has to address that in some way shape or form even if it’s just to come out and go look that’s not that’s not the case you know just address that people feel that way yeah I mean we also talked about markets today too and and just more so in terms of free agency because you know I’ve been releasing these Kings Target free agent lists and we just get people who say h no no free agent has ever or will ever come to Sacramento what’s the point of these things do you feel like Sacramento has gotten to a point to where I don’t know if the market is do you feel like the market is still hurting Sacramento in these free agency talks any more than what it is to I mean it because I think the point that we got to is look there’s La New York Miami the bay Chicago whatever those are those places and it’s pretty much those places and everybody else there’s not really much of a difference between Sacramento in Minnesota and OKC and all of these places it’s either you are those places or you’re not would you agree with that uh I don’t know and the interesting thing there about what you said you might want to tell Bay Area boyy over there I’m not sure I we’ve had this discussion you know in Al and I were at the station in San Francisco we’ve had this discussion there like is San franciscothe Bay Area is that a free agent destination I know they’ve had the Giants had some success 49ers get guys here and there and Kevin Durant went there but you know the taxes and everything and the weather’s not the greatest I’m not sure it is I mean we all love it there yeah um it should be I’m not sure it is and if it isn’t because of some of the you know tax things and things like that then I mean that’s GNA affect us here too yeah um but I know who was the biggest free agent signed here Vlade was a free agent when he signed here yep Malik you can argue Malik yeah that’s right although at the time that wasn’t that big of a signing right yeah no it wasn’t wasn’t headline or news they signed him for $9 million a year so it was just kind of a another move that happened that year so um yeah I mean it and I would also say though it’s not just Sacramento that’s like that you know yeah Boston complains about it all the time they say their best free agent signing is Gordon Hayward so um I kind of think everybody deals with not getting free agents and yeah if you’re not LA or New York like people aren’t going to view you as a destination yeah uh my prediction by the way the next Co of the Phoenix Suns will be Matt isia’s friend Isaiah Thomas yeah that would be a train wreck really that would be terrible because it went so well the first time Isaiah was a head coach went so well interesting interesting well we will see what happens inoen bad Pacific Division team yes seriously also what happens in LA but we know what’s happening right now it’s the drive guys with Whitey gleon and and Jay Johnson hopping in for Kyle draer thank you for listening to Styles and Watkins thank you to all the calls they were great today text line was on fire on a thirsty Thursday also the sack chat thank you to Simone doing a great job with all that audio and everything else as well until tomorrow happy Friday Eve secure the
