"Don't like that. I gotta say this about Blake Griffin. He is a primary. Like, he's the perfect 12 minute a game guy. If you plan 14, 15 minutes a game. The bottom falls out. The fact that you have to say though, he's the perfect 14th guy. Which really isn't a thing that exists, right? Exactly. There's no such thing. But I mean, ultimately, what are you doing? And we've seen it before. Yeah. It's that ring chase, baby. Hey, listen. Totally guaranteed Boston picks them up 'cause they signed going Ari, right? Gallinari goes down with the injury, playing force country overseas. And Blake Griffin, that's resilience, man. That's why I'm giving him the vanilla brother of the week week, week because he is resilient, man, like the rest of the vanilla brothers that we have in sports these days, man. So that's the vanilla brother of the weak man Vijay is quinoa. All right, Vijay, does he get, does he get that ring though this year? No. Now a boss and now with the stuff they got going on and I'm not going to dive into it, but just everybody knows what's going on there. They are there for a long season. Therefore, when you leave, when you lose your leader and this cloud is going to hang over them, 'cause they didn't fire him. They just suspended him and then said, after the suspension, it's indefinitely after that. When you don't know what's going on, man with your profession with your team, your circle, your relationship, your home, your life, period, things are just going to be off. We are at more comfortable in our lives when we feel we know what's going on. I mean, I do that. That Boston situation. Yikes. Yikes. But in terms of Boston's chances in the east, I still like them. I feel like it's not even close. I mean, all things considered. We had a long time between now and the playoffs. True. But right now, no head coach, fourth and to me easily four. They're not better than I don't think they're better than affiliate I don't think they're better than I don't think they're better than Miami. I don't think they're better than the Brooklyn and I don't think they're better than the bucks. So I got them fourth and 5th right now. Obviously, like I said, well, we're not too long before the season starts, but a long time before it actually gets down to the Gritty of it all. But we'll get into, I mean, first of all, congratulations to Blake Griffin. I hope you get that ring. But coming up at the top of the hour, we're going to get back into football back into the NFL, the USA Today. Pretty reputable news February, Vijay. Released findings of how all the NFL coaches and this is the racial breakdown between all of them. We're going to get into that coming up next

"Wow okay so that rivalries over but yes having a rival you see the. I mean we're on the last dance right now. J just has rivals like fake. Real doesn't matter having something to drive you. Every single day is healthy. I do think that often houses are great places to get in fights. Yeah it seems like everyone is everyone at a waffle house is is ready that there might be a fight at any given time like a ufc all. The tables have rounded corners on them. So if you fall you're probably not going to split your head open. It's like chess boxing. so i'm with this guy. I think he's totally. I think he's a well. I mean maybe the actual fist fighting as an adult is a little much production. Doesn't sound like they're putting more wrestling. Which is that's just. You're you're basically doing gentlemen's fighting. No face stuff right. Everyone's home for dinner from the groin. Boss like what happened to your face. You just trying to just trying to wrestle each other in in like feats of strength. Do you think that there's an outside chance that this guy has a pre existing relationship with the waffle house cook in a way that he told him. Hey i'm gonna fuck with my fiance. Let's get into a fight and have a rivalry every time comes your restaurant. And then he just never told his fiancee. He's like pulling a big prank honour. Well it could that that theory could make sense if he was like. I love my happy place. But what really bothers me is my fiance demands coming. So he found a way to go to his happy place whereas fiance refuses to go. You know what happened. They go in there the first time. And he's like this is as you say my happy place for me. That would be a place like buffalo wild wings. You go there. You sit down. You're guaranteed of good time. She comes along what she do the first thing when they sit down she opens up a book. She doesn't even try to enjoy waffle house and so he's like you know what i'm going to get into a fight with this guy until she leaves and demands to stop coming because i listen. I'm going to get my brain smothered covered. What is it chunked diced in front of her. If that's what it takes to make her stop reading a book at a waffle he pays. He pays his guy off. He tips him extra to be like. Hey just make sure that. I can come here. And he's probably getting the the best eggs every single time. He probably eats his runny eggs. That are perfectly cooked. And then he and then he says what's up to his friend and he's like hey can you just maybe give me a nogi and gimme one solid like punch in the liver so that i can go home with a couple of scratches. I mean i love this relationship. I love everything about it. I love this guy. I really do think that having appointed principal having something that you like. One of those standoff. So you're like you know what today. I'm not going to give up. I'm not gonna let someone push me around. When was the last time you got into a fight fistfight. We'll fight grappling fist. That sort of thing. Fifteenth to december fifteenth chat since college. I don't think i'm trying to think. I don't think since college you hank besides that outside of a sanctioned event probably college college college i got into a fight in hong kong but it was like kind of a bro fight because the guy was wearing the same outfit that i was. He was shirtless. Also wearing the same color shorts. I was just looked at each other and you knew it was on and then afterwards we were friends and we. There's no better feeling in the world that's not a fight then getting into a fight with somebody and then afterwards in the middle of the fight you realize fun. You and i are more similar than we are different. Was this when you were high on ecstasy. This was when i was high on. Md may yes. Okay so you might have just been kissing the dude rolling balls. You might have just been groping his meal because it's on camera. Okay so confirmed not kissing could fight though confirmed it was a razzle. Yeah also isn't that would. isn't that like saying. Hello at a rugby game pretty much. Yeah just not not a threat. Just jumping rugby guys all right. So this guy yeah waffle house guy. Love i fucking level.

"The cook served him too. Hard boiled links. I think it was just part of cook stick and it was kinda funny to be honest but my boyfriend wasn't able to laugh it off off when we left. He was in kind of a bad mood but we didn't really talk about it the next week. We're getting some shopping done and he wanted to go to waffle house again. I suggested that we try out a different place or at least a different waffle house location. But he only wanted the same. Which if you've been in the south there's waffle house every other block and they look identical. That's it that's the entire point of the offline. just a food station being. I wanna go to mcdonalds not that mcdonald's We went in and sat down and once again. The same cook served as eggs wrong. My boyfriend's sorta snapped at him that he wasn't interested in messing around and just wanted to correct x. The cook then served him a piece of toast with a hole. Cut out in the middle with a friday in it that sounds delicious towed in the whole. Yeah my boyfriend got really mad in through the egg toast at the cook which made the cook come around from behind the bar and throw it back at him. They up sort of wrestling fighting until my boyfriend was like this is bullshit and walked out. Nobody got hurt but a few other people in there were watching and laughing a bit. Well here's the thing you don't want to get into it. With waffle house cook because waffle house. Cook know how to handle themselves. Most of their clientele is drunk their belligerent. It's late at night. He have to be able to fight. If you're going to be it's like the most dangerous the most say the most aggressive like self defense capable jobs. In america i would put waffle house right up there with like blackwater employees someone someone replied the i replied to this tweet was i went to a job interview for waffle house in one of the questions was can you fight. Yeah it has to i mean. Have you been to waffle house at two o'clock in the morning. And you handle yourself. You remember that story in the news like a year ago about a waffle house cooked took. Somebody's ak47 away from them or they disarmed dude with his air. Fifteen very dangerous. That's day one training house. Cook all right so back story. This is the crazy part. My boyfriend keeps going back an ordering eggs and getting into fistfights with the same cook. It's almost a ritual at this point. My boyfriend orders runny eggs. The cook serves him some other version of eggs and then they beat the shit out of each other. I quit going with him after the second fight but he kept going by himself. Peter and the giant chicken family guy. It's the weirdest thing they physically fought like six or seven times over this. I think they're actually friends. Yo they are. This is just guys horsing. This has become a friendship. They were if they weren't actually friends. He would not be allowed inside the house anymore. If you get into a fight. I'm not gonna say if you get into a fight at a waffle house you're never welcome back because they would have no clients if you get into a fight with the same person more than four times and a waffle house then at some point they'll be like hey can you just come back when he's not working. This is sport there like they. They basically they probably text each other beforehand. You're like you wanna brawl today. I wanna go. Yeah you go buddy. I've tried to talk to him about it a few times. But he keeps saying. It's a matter of principle. I've told them to talk to the manager or something like that but he just waves me off. Apparently the cook hasn't yet made him the correct runny eggs but it's like he spends the week learning new ways of preparing eggs to piss my boyfriend. I think he does exactly that on team cook here. I want to get out in front of that. He's team all on both sides because he's right. It is a matter of principle but asking for an egg. That's a little bit. That's tough egg to make for cook but if anyone if you're a cook at a crowded waffle house and you've got a million orders going on making the perfectly runny. Egg is difficult task. So i i think this is the middle of the day when wafaa says no one. If that's in fact correct if this guy is going for a casual lunch at waffle using clues here it's got to be a lunch or dinner and they were one day going out shopping and then they went to. I think it's just middle of the day. They're just fighting waffle. Yeah i don't know. I don't know about that. You either go to waffle house at night for dinner or you go early in the morning for like a lately just a meal that you'd have it while i do want breakfast lunch or dinner. She she said he does lunch and dinner there. All right so then finishes up. The thing is we're getting married this summer. He's accepted a job in a new city. And it'll be easy for me to find work after the wedding so we'll be moving away from his sworn enemy waffle house guy. He hasn't really been out since quarantine started. But it wouldn't surprise me if that's the first place he goes when restaurants open backup for sitting customers. But my main worry. Is this strange vindictive side of him. I've never seen before. That leads him to fight the same guy every week. The violence itself is an issue for me. But the obsession over. It almost bothers me more. Should i be worried that this side of him will come up later in our marriage. How do i get him to open up about this. Is this type of obsession a choice or is it indyk in indicative indicative of something deeper. You need to cook him eggs and you need to cook him the perfect runny egg and see if he has any desire to stop going to that waffle house because if he decides to stop going then it was about the eggs this whole time if he keeps going back it's just because they're bros. And he misses. The human body craves contact right so he likes get into a fight every now and again. I honestly don't i think this guy is actually the most well adjusted adults. I've ever heard because he seems like a great guy but having a grudge or a point of principle that you will not let up. It's like a bulldog with a tennis ball mouth. Sometimes guys just have to do that like sometimes you just have to beef silently or actually physically fighting like i'm thinking about i. Have i have this guy who lives in my building who on july fourth i was using the grill. The community grill and he came up any moves my stakes over and put his own food on their without asking me. I scowl that motherfucker. Every time i see him. I haven't said anything. But i have a grudge and i fucking hate him. I think if i ever get in a point where like he lost his keys. And i have a chance to let him in. I won't let him it. It's a passive grudge but having a grudge and having a fo the you wake up in the morning. You're like fuck that guy. It's healthy a grudge. Not so much. A foe is very important arrival. Right born for guys have rivals you arrivals against grill guy. i'm rivals with decay. Metcalf hanks rivals with the english language. And i guess chocolate milk somehow. Boehner's owners hanks ri- we're rivals. Good point hank actually declared he and his. Npt's rivalry over. 'cause pfc can't beat which i beat them literally fifteen minutes going. Put my figured you can't defend to good. My defense took it still can get interaction..

We have monday reading of the year the monday reading of the year the nominees off are we have the waffle house reading waffle house. Fight reading we have the article that tedious mentioned new york times. We have the disney immersion monday reading. And guess what we're gonna do which get put in the show going to put the monday reading the winner in the show so here it is so we have this post called. My boyfriend keeps getting into fights with a cook at waffle house. Here's how it starts. I know this sounds really weird but here it is. My boyfriend and i have been together for three years. We met and started dating when we were both in graduate school. That's actually a good note to have their advance past bachelor's degree but dropped out to go back to college. I go back to college to pursue a different career. We're both finished now and live together. Making a fairly nice combined income. Our income is relevant because we could afford to eat somewhere. Nice when we're out and about but he always wants brex breakfast. Okay real quick first of all. Let's not shame people that eat a waffle house because now if you're a millionaire you should still be going to waffle house on a regular basis. It is the best night food. It's the best. Brad's drunk food. Great waffle house shrunk waffle. House is one of america's finest institutions He's goo she goes on to say when he was a child. His dad couldn't stand eating breakfast type food in the afternoon or evening so his mom would make him waffle slash pancakes eggs and bacon in evening whenever his dad was busy or out of town. It's a wonderful and safe memory form. And when he goes to his happy place he says that's where he always goes. I liked this memory because it's busy the grown up version of when you're eight years old and you say when i'm an adult i'm gonna eat candy for dinner And then i- spoiler alert. I actually have done that many times. It is kind of a weird move though for a dad to say. We don't eat breakfast food at dinner time. He's a rule sky. That's that's kind of bizarre to be. I don't like that. I one time. I was at a grocery store. There's person that was behind me in line. I was buying stuff to make breakfast for dinner and the guy was like. Are you making you making breakfast. And i was like. Yeah he goes. My wife won't let me eat breakfast for dinner. Damn i felt so bad guys said all right. My boyfriend is an incredibly nice and caring person. He's i love these. These long diatribe were they. Just try to set up like no guys. He's actually totally normal. And then drop the hammer like my boyfriend is the sweetest nicest person ever occasionally. He likes to fuck his mom in front of me. But i love him otherwise. I'm in the best relationship in my life. My boyfriend's sometimes likes to bring guns out in the bedroom. We've all got our kinks. My boyfriend is so in tune with my feelings but every now and then he fakes like he's going to push me in front of oncoming traffic. I'm afraid he's gonna kill me. Listen i've got such a great boyfriend. We're in the best relationship of all time. It's something i could only dreamt about when i was a little girl. He owns this island code. Little saint james and he goes there a lot with some of his friends. He makes good money. So we're doing pretty well. We've had a beautiful house in manhattan okay so back to the story. He loves animals in his kind. This is really. She's doing the checklist like he's not a sociopath. He loves animals and is kind and gentle with every bug bird and pet that he comes across to. You don't have to be gentle with every yeah with a bug like a spider. I'm gonna smash spy. Murder hornet gonna fuck it up He's almost always willing to turn the other cheek and social situations where somebody tries to insult him or get aggressive towards him and usually winds up diffusing the situation having a productive discussion about whatever the issue was except at waffle house. By the way last point you don't get points for being an adult that doesn't get into fights it sounds like he doesn't get into fights alive right. This is a common occurrence for him where he should get into a fight where most people get into a fight that he calmly talk his way out. Unfortunately that's not like you don't get to walk around like a boy scout with see this badge. Someone took my parking spot at whole foods. I didn't fight them. That's how it works. My boyfriend fights using logic and reason he likes us his words and diffuse everything. Okay anytime we're out. He wants to go to the same god damn waffle house and get breakfast food. I'm not a big eater. So i used to not really care. Just drink coffee and read my book. Well he enjoyed his food. Which is awesome visual just like honey. Let me get my happy place. But that became impossible once he and this one cook started chirping at each other. Every time we went there boyfriend complained about his eggs one time because he likes them a little runny and they were served heart. The cook responded by giving him scrambled eggs. That's hilarious when he brought it up again. The cook served him too hard boiled eggs funding. Funny harry funny. I think it was just part of the cook. Stick which who doesn't know a cook with a stick. You gotta have your short order cooking. That's you know what that's a feature not a bug for that waffle house because that's the funny cook that fucks up your order and tells you if you go to waffle house and you expect to have your order one hundred percent correct every single time you. My friend are not understanding the true charm of. It's like i want breakfast food. They serve you breakfast food and then you kind kind of maybe. The cook responded by giving scrambled eggs when he brought it up again..

His posture was impeccable. For an old guy. Yes so i don't like he's got some stiff competition this year but as a newcomer in the field of being an alpha on the internet. That's a strong showing from not that guy yes We have wiley coyote. Fur basically winning lebron james spacium to the team on his back he did. He scored three hundred points in that third quarter. And then finally we have our beloved jake marsh For his best in the office speech drum roll. I reached out to mark miller the bills. Fan the dallas is going down guy. He did not get back to us so he was going to present it but drum. Roll please billy. Drum roll and the winner is the best in the office. Jake martin i please. Each really means a lot. I wouldn't have the opportunity to have this unless you guys gave me the platform. So it's a team award. It's not just about me So are you. are you thinking. Hang such for being so bad at ping pong now hangs not bad at ping pong. If you hadn't beat them then you would never gotten this award. it's true. yeah you know. I mean obviously it's probably yes but did you know you were an alpha before that moment like did you. Did you know. I was just playing the game. And sometimes the emotions come out alpha. Try to win but like it. Your career has forever changed. From that moment you are the alpha guy. We'll see what would you say was more of an alpha move doing the. I'm the best in the office on the best one here or the step over. Actually that questions for hank step over was was entirely districts. Really how the officers like of initial emotions like you're just relieved to win the game. That happens but the step over was just completely unnecessary. Yeah totally totally alpha other word for. It really isn't trying to help them. A great a great a great year for alpha good job. Yeah this next award. It's one that we've done every single year. Part my take yup with the take. It's a very sacred award and we've got a great cast the nominees. It is the live of the year award live of the year award. The nominees are chris long. he's he won it. How many. I think chris has won it three time. Okay to way where when when they bring out the mops at a basketball game to say people always take pictures and they're like oh shit. I know that chris long is scored going. He's a world famous lit libman. So chris long is nominated again. He's almost like the meryl streep it really wouldn't be a category. They didn't have chris long The second nominee is billy football. Ooh offer graduating from a liberal arts college this year and for getting the vaccine and forgetting the vaccine is also nominated such that. Billy's actually told us that we have to mention yep that he got the vaccine because he doesn't want people think he's anti he got johnson and johnson. Yeah also nominees cole beasley cole. Beasley nominated for lib of the year ward for refusing to take the trump vaccine also nominated. Dan woken just a outstanding year in the field of liberalism. He's shouldn't be playing sports. Yeah no he thinks He doesn't think that sports should ever exist. He thinks at balls every ball should be deflated. in america dan will personally approves of it. And then dr anthony. Falcone linear created corona virus. He invented it in a lab. Yes he's actually from wuhan and if you don't get to listen to the whole show it's probably because the rest of it was taken down after this Not we could definitely not put this up as click on twitter or all right Do we have. We do not have a guest. Wait jake i think jake jake laverty go alpha. Just he one alpha and he walked right out. he wouldn't say a word and went to go eat.

Bill you o'clock all right. Nice nice all right next up next up. We have apology of the year. Now this was a very very tight race. This was an incredible class this year. Some great apologies. So we'll start with the apology now. You probably didn't expect to see this guy in here. But urban meyer did apologize this year for hiring the The iowa coach yes. He said so. He hired chris. Doyle as strength and conditioning coach He then fired him. Like i don't know two days later. After the backlash and urban meyer said that he accepted his resignation. A said we're responsible for all aspects of our program. And in retrospect should've given greater consideration to how his appointment have affected all involved. Wish him the best as he moves forward in his career. So urban meyer with a good apology for him. I feel like him. He's he's well on his way to earning the lifetime. Achievement and apologizing awards. Yes that was for him. That was a great apology. the presumptive favorite. Thom brennaman with an apology after his mike incident which he transcribed as he said. I made a comment earlier tonight. That i guess went out over the air. That i am deeply ashamed of i pride myself and think of myself as a man of faith and there's a drive into deep left by castellanos there will be a home run and so that will make it a four zero ballgame. I don't know if i'll be putting on the headset again. i just. I still can't believe that happened. What fucking moment one His dad's on twitter now. Oh really dad's already yes. Marty brennaman is on twitter. People were speculating. It was his account. He'd never actually claimed it now since he's no longer on the air he's fuel. He feels free to defend his son. Yeah so he's been like replying to people be like my son's getting real bad rap for parents. All the replies to anyone of his tweets is just that copy paste and then there's a deep drive to left in a weird way. I do think you'll probably have a comeback because of how ridiculous. That apology was and he probably will never known we'll help. He could have a career like he come back he could be twenty more years he will always be the newcastle. It's it's actually a good thing for the apology. Became the story right lower. When he called it word he said yes. He's got a new job by the way already high school sports in the cincinnati area. Wow and he made a joke out of press conference. Yeah okay about his own drive to the tepola. Oh got it. He's back on his feet. Cancel culture yeah. Damn another one bites the dust Stephen smith gets apology of the year nominee for his comments about shohei ohtani. He did so seabass. Smith says a lot of things but when you know that he is serious he is looks directly into the camera. He did the serious. Stephen a smith tone and he looked in the camera and then. Espn did like four days worth of programming off of that So you know. He's sorry you know he sorry. I love i love when they when someone fucks up and espn great. Now we can just sell shows for the rest of the week and then they just put the they use the bottom line on yes and they run the quotes from their own employees apology. Like they they have you know. Mlb than it scrolls nfl. News and then scrolls to. Stephen smith apologizes news and then run entrusted react. And then lastly we have jeffrey toobin who you forgot was the cnn reporter who forgot to close his zoom and jerked off during a company meeting His his apology people obviously remember the story but they they kind of forget how his apology wet. It was something. I went and looked it up. he said it was deeply moronic in an indefensible and then he went on to say. I've spent the seven subsequent months miserable months in my life. Trying to be a better person in therapy trying to do some public service working in a food bank working on a new book. What is what does a food bank have to do with jerking off in front of your coworkers. Going to therapy. I went to therapy to overcome my addiction to jacking off. Accidents closing zooms or. I'm working on a new book. That i'm going to make money from what does that i just. It's so funny when people use therapy as like this is my get out of jail free card. I did something wrong but by saying that. I'm currently therapy. It's like when riley cooper went to go seek treatment for being racist. Yes thirteen step program for a week and then they brought him back like okay. he's cured. It's all good here. If i jerked off in front of co workers on a zoom the analysis analogous apology that i would issue if i was jeffrey toobin. I'd say i've worked really hard trying to do. I'm in therapy. I'm trying to do some public service. I sold the pile for fifteen thousand dollars. And i'm working on some new parlays. That will definitely not lose. That would be what i would say.

"A big part of a plus. He's the only Center that they have on the roster right now. I'm outside and it collects and who's playing really? Well. I don't know many people have noticed that but he's playing really well in our second year big man off their back, but I think that challenges if you moved in with Eddie, that's one of those ones. Are you really going to make sure everybody in your locker room understands why there's okay with it and I think you try to do right by him by sending him somewhere that's going to re-sign him give him a nice contract and give him a role interesting ly enough weird the Pistons we're interested which is kind of funny cuz he you know famously is destroyed the Pistons in the past cuz they gave up on him when they when they they waved him so that that's always been, you know, just kind of an interesting aside there, but that's the only thing that makes that one really interesting to me is that is a salary number that correct. Get the net something really helpful. I mean, hey Revenge game narratives are always fun. And if the Nets are able to find a piece they can help them win this season. I could see them do it as important as used to their team, I guess right. He is an important piece, but if they can find something that can help them right now Championship window sometimes don't last that long and if you feel like you have a shot to win it now, you might have to make that move and I think the Nets can absolutely make an argument that they can win right now anything else that was in winning winning winning solves her feelings real quick to very true if anybody's feeling real bad. Yeah. I thought that was interesting. Josh Robbins has had some kind of subsequent musings and I think mystery he'd Robbins as the athletic be writer for the magic. He knows that team better than any other team. And so I think it's his own thoughts mixed with a little bit of reporting. It's just going to take a huge package to get boot the magic. I think if Mo Bamba was better off They feel good feel if Baba was better than magic would feel better about moving vouch. The challenges Bamba is not so I think they see vouchers being still really important wage should age. Well as they get back folks and Isaac next year my continue to believe the magic player most likely to be on the Move would be Evan Fournier just cuz he's an expiring contract and that's another one where wage if you're not going to re-sign him next next offseason, you know, you might as well you'll look at more you can do in trade. I thought this purse stuff was kind of interesting in that piece to from Shams Spurs never making season deals though. They never do that. So I think it's probably more likely than just ride it out. I'm gonna throw something at you though. It's a early summer..

We really do appreciate you guys quite a few of these. So it was really really pretty cool. All right, so this is a little bit of a tweak on that other one home or was that big actually will do this one instead? Okay, because I think this one is fun. This is another one of those forty MERS and this one came from sorry. I should not closed it just yet at Casey Levine on Twitter. Okay, Cleveland, San Antonio, Oklahoma City in Sacramento Cleveland gets DeMar DeRozan and Jabari Parker, San Antonio gets Andre Drummond and Trevor Ariza the Thunder get Marvin Bagley and Nemanja B Lisa and the Kings get LaMarcus Aldridge. Mhm. I am going to have to find that one right now because I cannot picture that in my head. It's it's in your notes in mind. That's what it was. I was looking through three years. All right, find that one and then I'll be able to break that down a little bit. It's a it's a screenshot of the trade machine got it. Got it. Got it got there. It is give you my thoughts while you're pulling it up. Here it is. I think I kind of like it for the Cavs. I think the rosens an upgrade for the rest of the season especially as he's been playing kind of a small ball for roll for San Antonio. I like came over Drummond for them Jabari Parker. That doesn't matter. That's just thrown in a imagine to make the math work Spurs side of it. I don't hate it. Try out drumming for the rest of the year. See if anybody's got get the best out of him. It's probably going to be San Antonio. They've got enough guys that they can get by without DeRozan there is this year. I think he's probably done there any way a reason that doesn't do anything for them. They take a reason reason is my number one guy to be bought out in the Bayou Market don't think anybody's trading for him cuz no one's going to trade for 12.8 million hits bought out and he's probably got finished his career. My guess is with the Lakers is my guess I'd say he's coming home again for like what's I like the tenth time? He'll be a Laker the 10th. Oh, he's been a Laker what get Mark once? Well, I mean, he's from East he came in the trade with a with the best at least tried two different Arisa. He was in and then wasn't he there he was in 2009. He came in want to Championship with offers unless.

"Not a big salary. It is only four point 1 million because of that that makes them hard to trade really hard. You can't take back Tim Hardaway Jr. The the Hawks don't have a big exception. Now with the Hawks do have is they've got Tony Snell's twelve point two million dollar expiring that could kind of work as a, you know, human trade exception wage. That they could send back and in in you know attach it to Collins, but I see a lot of John Collins and stuff there Hawks can't take back a big salary just for John Collins. Now off. The other thing is I I don't hate Collins to the Mavericks Collins porzingis looka-here pretty shy D actively I'm being able to stop anybody but offensive League. Good luck. Yo, I mean that's you know, Luke is now going to pick and roll pin can pop Partners to work with it. Just wonder it's Collins and porzingis a little too duplicative. Where did you want all those two in that same line-up, but as we're seeing more and more stretch, you'll stretch the floor space the floor open things up. You'd have to load up then everybody else would have to be three and do you guys all over the floor and then still are short of playmaker off the dribble, but I don't hate that idea. So last thing I'll say sorry go ahead and one more thing the maps do you have pics they can trade they just have to work around some pic protection off. A little complicated so it'd be like deliver this two years after this one is traded in those kind of things. They could do that. You don't have to wait until a pic is actually traded. You just have to work plus they could also trade the part that's not protected. They still have that ability to do to if they wanted to do that. So sorry, I I just wanted to make sure I get that so value wise, I don't know if that's enough for a language to give up John Collins. I mean he's going to be restricted right? Like worst case scenario you hold on to them and you just try to flip him next year. If you decide that look this just really doesn't work. I mean you'd be better off just paying him and am getting trying to get more for him later on so value wise or just paying or just just keep em, cuz yeah, he's a great he's very very good player.

"It's going to be hard to make up and LeapFrog all these teams, but then they look at him but we're only a game and half out of the plane if we get there and we're healthy we can make a run and and he starts to look at that stuff. So I think what you're you're going to see teams do is give it about two more weeks till the end of February the beginning part of March. Everybody will have a pretty good idea. Cuz right now it's you know, it's Griffin and drumming is individuals and then you've got kind of the Pistons kind of the Cavs kind of the Thunder and then the t-wolves that are looking to make moves. Yeah, everybody else is holding in and saying, well not really there yet, you know, we're ready to go and then on the flip side, you've got buyers who know they need help but a lot of these buyers are also looking and saying I do e or do we just need to get healthy, you know, is that what we got to do first and that that's where it becomes, you know, a little bit of that challenge too cuz it takes you know two sides to make a deal so so yeah, but it all come into Focus within the name. Couple of weeks. So I would expect that beginning, you know, early part of March is when things will really pick up steam. Yeah, but that doesn't mean that we can't talk about all kinds of different fake trades right now. So I guess we're going to get into this. We're going to talk a little bit about some trades that were sent in from Twitter. Both of our Twitter accounts. We accepted some some trades coming in people's giving us trade suggestions and we will dive into that long, but I guess we should preface this because if you and I were talking before the show about how when we get sent fake trades all the time, but people think they're real trades that are completely hypothetical and people send us messages saying hey, did you hear about this trade is this trade really going down is this going to happen know we get sometimes people put out lists of hey wouldn't it be cool if the team traded for that guy? This team should really look at this guy. That doesn't mean it's a source trade and so just to specify before we even get in any of this all of the things we're covering today right now. It's just stuff that job. We look at and think hey, maybe there is some opportunity here. It doesn't mean these teams have actually talked. It doesn't mean that this is a legitimate trade rumor or it's sourced or anything like that..

"At the Genesis Invitational Live coverage all this weekend. It starts three eastern 12 Pacific on C. B s. Let's go out to Seattle right now. Let's talk to Zack. Zack. You want CBS Sports radio? What do you think about what dream on had to say? Age. Everything from Leon always appreciate it takes I could not disagree with dream on more Ah lot of standards. But the main 0.1 of the makers that what dream on is talking about on Lee applies to a select few players in the NBA. You don't see ready Jackson asking to be sitting out because he's unhappy the team because if he says that he's out of the league I mean, Anthony Davis got fined $100,000, and in return, he got to win a championship of the Lakers and they could tell the money with a new contract. Something that is a drop in the bucket and for the average fan. I mean, these people are making 30 plus million 24 plus million for Drummond, who might be out of the leading a year to know good to sit on the bench and I just don't see it. It's not doesn't relate to the average person and what he's talking about his agreed Against just a few players. Sure. And, yeah, Zach, I agree with you. I always think it's an error to relate or it's easy to relate, you know? Well, they make this much money. The average person I think that's that's obvious and that's real easy. It's a It's a different business. I will agree with you on the fact of Yeah, they It's not like that out here. Losing. It's not like they're out here getting, you know, kicked. And I can understand, And this is from a different perspective. You know, I know plenty of players personally. And so it's real easy to turn on the television or scroll through the Internet and say, You know, these are these are names. This is who I sit down and watch you on TV. It's another perspective when you know, you know some of these guys and you can understand. You know the fact that they're humans, You know, I can honestly tell you. Yeah, when I'm talking to an NBA player. I'm hanging out with an NBA player or any athlete and that scope in time, you know, is it always at the forefront of my mind that Oh, my God. This guy makes 30 $40 million. No, I'm sitting here hanging out with his family. I'm thinking about the game that we're watching. Well, what we're having for dinner, So I understand what dream on is saying about the human element. That's something that can easily be lost. But Zach, I agree with you, 100% is that it's not like anybody is is really hard core suffering out here, you know. You have a class in question are made to be honorably. If you're thinking about this, the average person It doesn't get paid to sit around and do nothing. And it's not like Blake Griffin and Andre Drummond can't play. They're sitting down because they mutually decided this would be the best thing for the team. Agree. Maybe that's the team says not the player, but sure time. Most people, aren't they? I'm not having a job. Let's find me another job. The meantime, you gonna pay me my salary? Sure the privilege of having that is not a human thing. It's a privilege. Versus human aspect. I totally get rid dream about, but it's a proven thing. Yeah, I don't get well, I don't And that's that's that's fine. I guess we'll have to disagree there because I always find it. I find it Z real easy. Look at any celebrity or any entertainer, whether they're basketball player or musician and really hear this, and we only hear it primarily when it comes down to professional athletes. You know, we don't hear people saying that. Oh, my God, you know, X y Z musician that I love and care about so much is Holding out for a record deal or we don't we don't see that. But the business of professional sports is right there in front of us and for the majority of us, it's it's more relatable. Because, for the most part to a certain degree, we all grow up playing professional sports. We all don't end up on a stage. We all don't end up on a movie screen, but to a certain degree, yet we all can kick a ball or throw it. Doesn't matter if you stop that fifth grade or 10th grade, And so I understand what you're saying. But I just think it's very easy to say OK, this is a privilege. This is something that they've worked for. Just like anyone else. I really don't find it to be comparable tow anything than anybody. Does. You know what's going on right now between the Brooklyn Nets and the Phoenix Suns? That doesn't have anything to do with me sitting here right now with you talking on CBS Sports radio. It doesn't have anything to do with what's going on on the road or what's going on in the supermarket. This is what it is. And so I just think it's it's real. It's real easy. And I think the human part of it is easy to say, Oh, stop the complaining that they're making so much And this and that and the regular person I don't see the two as as relatable. It's apples and oranges. Okay, Fair enough. And I don't get the point. I appreciate you having me on to talk about it. No doubt about exact. Thank you. So much for calling up from Seattle Washington. Yes, Every business is different. And professional athletes, and this is not toe. Oh, woe is me the professional athlete. Yeah, they're making millions of dollars. This is the nature of Their business. It's exemplary what they do. Wise that exemplary It wouldn't be exemplary if they didn't make billions of dollars off of it. If you didn't watch if I didn't watch them. There would be no conversation here. So there is no machine here if it's not for the players in their talent. If it's not for the system in a team in the league that allows them to go out and showcase their talents, But ultimately there's not any of it. If the fans don't show up, fans don't watch You know? How many people are in Houston, Texas right now. We've had a lot of those coals over the past several weeks. I've had people call and say, Damn it. I'm done with these Texans..

It's just like all right. Whatever you know. everyone knows. It's like a star power to get a star call with blake griffin. Had a player who could go up there his head back aggressively and all of a sudden up foul free throws and allow them to like actually have some is to look at them especially when the pistons were kind of trending downward a little bit. The time and yellow has contract is huge. And a little bit. You know worrisome. He played while if the win some games. I remember specifically i went to a game. Our scored fifty s yeah. He scored fifty late. In the game to beat the toronto raptors had player drove to the rim got fouled threw the ball over his shoulder off the remnant and like the entire statement crazy. It was like wow we actually have a guy you can do stuff like this consistently and now as kind of near the end of like athletic area like he was unable to jump over dunk but he's still able to get to the hoop it was before he started really shooting. Jump shots all the time. It trended to the point. Now where like he. His legs are not able to like. Make him a gifted athlete. He was so now he shooting jump. Shots has jumped. I was great when you thought he might go. Buy you a dunk on you. Now that he can't do that if you just sag awesome he'll shoot nine three pointers a game and he will hit maybe one of them which helps nobody except the opposing team. That's that's true. Well it's going to be interesting to watch and see how long it takes for them because that trade line. It's still more than a month away. But there's a lot in between there. And i think you make a lot of good points. Let's switch gears. College basketball michigan stays at number three in the men's college poll.

Detroit Pistons will sit Blake Griffin while team considers trade, buyout
"Watson routes give espn dot com has reported that not only. Is andre drummond. Kind of getting shut down for this whole trade talk discussion but also his former detroit. Pistons teammate blake griffin. It sounds like we'll be held out of the lineup. Until they can sort of figure out what his next move is is there a trade available for blake griffin or does this have to be a very extensive buyout situation where you know blazing to give some money out to get his freedom to go play for a good team. How do you resolve. This blake griffin situation. And why are they going to shut him down. I mean he's been very rough. So far this season i think a lot of people have noticed that he hasn't had a single dunk all year. Which just seems incomprehensible for the player. He was earlier in his career. He's basically a three point line. Two three point line Shooter at this point if you wanna put it that way in terms of his impact Is there a way out for detroit. Here or what are they doing man the blake griffin situation is is pretty rough Yeah he just hasn't had a very good season not moving. While he's only thirty one which is like hard to believe. Honestly i you just look at them and you think that. He's like in his late thirties. Ve how long he's been in our like our collective conscience and how great he used to be You would like to think that he could have an impact a positive impact on a championship contender. I don't know if that's possible anymore. Especially when he's not hitting the three ball and he's not hitting the three ball even though he takes a bunch of them so i don't know man like it will be. It'll be really interesting if they do. Waive him even though like. I don't have the limit. I'm trying to find the contract numbers. I know he's still oh quite a bit of money. So that's gonna be really interested this year. It's thirty six point five next year. He's got a player option for thirty eight point nine. Oh so you're not gonna get anything close to that this summer. So the buyouts to have to kind of reflect that if they did kind of pursue that direction mean maybe. They're just trying to hope that they can construct a trade to dump him onto someone else's someone else eats that money next year. I don't know how you really get out of that. I mean it could be a situation where they've just decided look man like your body's not they're just take some time and hope that you can kind of get into a better spot but mean it does kind of look unsalvageable for him at this point you know and i hate to say that because there were times for derrick rose where looked unsalvageable to and he's come back to make himself like a valuable role player in certain situation You know is there. A role for a blake griffin lake career bench renaissance where he follows the carmelo anthony model right and he's only play in like sixteen minutes a game and he gives you good sixteen eighteen minutes and that's it Could that be like a second chapter for him. I don't know. But i think this idea of him as fulltime starter. Impact guy or major contributor is is basically done.

In Black America: Spencer Haywood
"Player and very like we had out here in Vegas gained all of the players on that team Blake Griffin. All of the young guys coming up and giving me hugs and kisses. And thank you me because you know in that situation just in terms of dollars from Lebron James. He's got an extra one hundred million dollars. Toby gotta one extra one hundred million dollars Lake Griffin got an extra fifty million dollars Kevin Durant who give me a big hug and kiss each got seventy five million dollars extra so the number one dollars and sense that give you an example of what it is because with with four years have yet to wait four years after your high school graduate. You wouldn't lose that kind of capital and you lose that plant on you will lose four entitled number. That will help them get into the hall. Laid on those numbers would be race. And you don't know what happened four years then in College Spencer Haywood Aba Nba Legend and hall of Famer. Hey will always be remembered that the person opened the door for underclassmen college basketball players to leave college early to enter the NBA thereby creating the Spencer Haywood Rule Haywood attended the University of Detroit and help the US Olympic team to a gold medal at the nineteen sixty eight summer games in Mexico City. Nineteen sixty eight. After two years in college he decided to enter the NBA draft citing family financial hardship the NBA however at the time for players entering the draft until four years. After the high school graduation. Hey would then sign with the ABA. Denver rockets play one season leading the league in scoring and rebounding as a rookie since he now had a professional season under his belt he decided to challenge the NBA rule. Once again and signed with the Seattle Supersonics in one thousand nine hundred sixty nine the NBA wasn't having it. Hey will the league all the way to the US or frame court and one on September eleven? Two Thousand Fifteen. He wasn't Tryin Naismith Basketball Hall of fame. I'm John Johansen Junior and welcome to another edition of and Black America on this week's program. Aba An NBA Legend and hall of Famer Semester. Haywood in Black America. Charles Barkley went out on a limb when this stuff was acting when they were acting crazy. And I'm they missed me like the last time of going into the hall of fame and I was like put on the backburner right house. Barclay stepped up and said on. Nuff is enough and did it publicly. He did it every way you said enough is enough now. This is not right and he stood up as a player and he started educating young players. Like do y'all know who is in our presence with Spencer Haywood Blah Blah. And he started talking about. You know there's like three cases that changed the face of force in one dispenser Haywood Heywood versus the NBA. I went to the Supreme Court and then play a young player. Started like Whoa wait a minute. I know him I see him but I never knew that until Charles was the one that should should should be there. And he's my what you call. My advocate advocate is Just to a good person. Just a wonderful person. Spencer Haywood won Olympic gold medal in one thousand nine hundred sixty eight at age nineteen and signed with the Seattle Supersonics two years later after dominating the ABA and a case that went to the US Supreme Court he sued the NBA or rule that prohibited players being draft until the league until they waited for years after graduating from high school. He won that case and nineteen eighty. He won a world championship with the Los Angeles Lakers as a twenty rookie in nineteen sixty nine. Seventy season he led the American Basketball Association both scoring and rebounding and was named the League's Most Valuable Player and rookie of the year. One on April twenty seven nineteen forty nine and silver city Mississippi into a family of Chen Children Hayward grew up in a dying era of American history. His mother picked cotton for two dollars a day and Heywood joined her in the field at the age of five hundred sixty four he moved to Chicago then to Detroit in the motor city. He leads pershing high school to the one thousand nine hundred sixty seven Michigan class. A State Basketball Championship. He went on to a stellar careers at Trinidad State Junior College and the University of Detroit in the summer of nineteen nine hundred sixty eight. He helped the United States to a gold medal at the Olympic Games in Mexico City on September. The eleventh. Two Thousand Fifteen. Hey what was inducted into Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of fame? My first reaction was You know is this fact in. Is this true because I had had Three falls a long before that because most reporters and most people who look at numbers and they at by numbers as a player and that this guy was. Mvp of the ABA averaging thirty and twenty five years with the Seattle Supersonics average in twenty six and thirteen and Olympic record holder and all of these different categories and as still as leading score and also was the outstanding college player of the year. So they look at all these things and they just assume that everybody thought again. Then you know also I went to the Supreme Court to fight he would versus the NBA to pave the way for Lebron's Michael Jordan magic. All of them they come through what is called. I the NBA. They call it early entry and now. I think it should be called what it is to Spencer. Haywood because they have the Larry Bird rule and they have Oscar Robertson. Rule regrettably Oscar but I know they promote birds and Larry Bird's modified version of my role. Larry Bird came in on a dispenser. It will but anyway so for years we thought this would happen and then there was a couple of false alarms that it did happen. So I was kidding around with John Deliver with the The Chairman and CEO. The hall and he was mentioning. You know. Well I probably spend Kareem. Rise is always the top. Yeah I said well. What does that got to do with with Kareem abdul-jabbar? My my blonde jokes Right so so Yeah it was. It was delighted. Mandic to get the call and to finally get to call it. Finally get it in but you know my mother used to sing this whole Psalm Lord and may not come when you want and buddies right on time. And that's my Jackson right so you know if it had to happen any other time. I think it would have been not as powerful as it is today and It was right on time. And it's on God's time so I'm very grateful and very humble Vita journey understand so once. You heard that you were going to be inducted. Walk us through that period from the time that you got to call to the induction ceremony that took place last Friday. September the eleventh. What all the activities have you been involved with. Well I've been all over the country Speaking and people wanting to know this story because it's a unique story and it is basketball history but yeah you know it hasn't been told so It's a new newfound appreciation for Spencer. Haywood so players have been embracing me like only at USA basketball here. In Las Vegas Games all the players on that team Blake Griffin. All of the young guys coming up and giving me hugs and kisses and thanking me. Because you know that situation just in terms of dollars and cents per Lebron James. He's got an extra one hundred million dollars. Coby got a one extra one hundred million dollars but griffin got extra fifty million dollars Kevin Durant who give me a big hug. 'cause he's got seventy five million dollars extra so that's the numbers in dollars and sense that. I give you an example of what it is because with with four years. If you have to wait for years after your high school classic graduate you would lose that kind of capital and you'll lose that plan time loser scoring titles you'll lose numbers that will help them get into the hall. Later on those numbers would be raced. And you don't know what's going to happen in four years in college. You could get hurt. A lot of things could happen so they fully appreciating news. So it's a good feeling because of forty four years more to this to happen so it is It is right on time on God. Signed so and then I went to I've been doing a lot of golf. Tournaments or charitable events and also just playing a lot and I spend a Lotta time with my family. My daughters and in fact I gotTA leave Again next week my next two oldest daughters having our first grand and So I gotta go in go through the process with her and It is it is a spectacular time and I also sit back John and and think about the times we were sitting in your dad's barber shop. They all sunset and this and just Nevada in Detroit for people who don't know right in Detroit Michigan and John Fathers where we congregate And and and and do our conversation and get a nice. Yeah because he didn't allow us to walk around. I hair off falling away years and stuff. So that's right. Yeah you know that's right So we would sit there and listen and talk and just pass the ball sports but all so I've been reflecting on Detroit. I went over to my neighborhood yesterday. day before yesterday and spent some time over there. Thursday and looking around and just just hearing up. Because done you know the story you know. When I came up from Mississippi I had no place to say I had no family there and James and either bill took in and adopted me along with my coach. Will Robinson and then we had waned diet. Dr Wayne die of your your own zone by Diet. Right Do all of my academics bring me up to snuff there. Oh my God it was just A. It's just a lot of love was having an and I see in Detroit and it's always been that way you know. They've always reached out and help each

Giannis Antetokounmpo drops 41 points, Bucks surge to sweep of Pistons
"I have great news. It happened. Again. The pistons won the pistons won the pistons. Another first half of the playoff games against the bucks. However as the rules state they did have to also play the second half of the game during a gentleman by the name of Janas attentive PLO kinda to over Janas finish the game with forty one points, nine rebounds and a dominant performance that ended the season of the Detroit Pistons before we get to the pistons Jalen rose, what did you think of Janas dominance in the second half? I appreciate when your best player understands that it's a clo- closeout game. And they know out and have the best game of the series. I like that killer instinct, and this guy's virtually unstoppable as he gets a head of steam going towards the basket if you play off the him he takes up the space. It can do a euro step either way lead in good point goal. Over the top of you and bang out. And he still has the confidence to shoot jump shots, and he actually made a three. So as his office of game continues to evolve he becomes more of an unstoppable force in the league. You really does. I think a lot of people like, oh, it doesn't have a jump shot. Just back off of them say I don't know if you want him to gain that momentum those long strides long arms, you see he just went up against Andre Drummond under Jones seven foot one with long arms. These big he bounced off Drummond, switch to the other hand. And then finished in the air. Like, you do not want those types of problems. Jalen rose. The pistons have some problems now they're season's over. They didn't have Blake for the first two games in this series. I think a huge huge shout to Blake Griffin finishing out this series. He played pretty well. He was obviously hobbled. He had a great season.

Kris Humphries says short-lived marriage to Kim Kardashian was '100 percent real'
"It's been awhile since we've seen Kris Humphries on headline entertainment for sure location, but his the case today because Kris Humphries who's our hometown guy, of course, announced his retirement from the NBA today. So he is officially retired and he's reflecting on his career and his infamous seventy two day marriage. One Kim Kardashian. There are some interesting things he wrote a blog post for the players Tribune. And I've got a little excerpt for the irony of my career is that I finally figured out what kind of player I was when I got to the nets. I felt like I knew who I was finally, and then I met a girl who happened to be really famous, and I got married and damn look I should have known what I was getting into. I was definitely naive about how much my life was going to change. But the one thing that really bothers me is whenever people say that my marriage was fake. He goes on and says, there's definitely a lot about that world that is not entirely real. But our actual relationship was one hundred percent real when it clear when it was clear that it wasn't working. What can I say it sucked? It's never easy to go through the embarrassment of something like that with your friends with your family. But when it plays out so publicly in front of the world, it's a whole other level. It was brutal. Yeah. I get that. I get that. And remember they started dating and they were married like ten months later. Very quickly. It took nearly two years for their divorce. Get to be finalized. They were only married for less than three months. They had a massive wedding ceremony in front of the cameras August of twenty eleven and Kris Humphries goes on to say, I didn't know how to handle it. And this is where I think you can feel a lot of empathy for the guy. He says, I didn't know how to handle it. Because I never thought I was going to be famous in that way. I remember having this moment when I was getting booed so hard in Philly, and I thought to myself why exactly are they booing need? Just because I'm that guy from TV today think I was trying to be famous is it because they think I disrespected the game of basketball the last one killed me because all I've ever wanted to be known for was basketball. You know, I know I know a woman whose son was in that wedding. Okay. Really the KEA and they all had to sign disclaimers. Yeah. Yeah. But in Christianity brought all of them like Amelia's, suits the. Oh, yeah. Okay. And but the word that what she said was it was an Kim's family. They were a nightmare. Kris Jenner was beyond rude. They didn't they treated all the Minnesota people like they were just. Foreigners far far far away land that they weren't gonna extend any courtesy to. She said it was so every was everyone was just like. The Hollywood people and then the Minnesota. For me. It sounds terrible. He says there was about a year when I was in a dark place. He didn't wanna leave his home said he feel like I don't know the whole world hates you. But they don't even know why. And then he said Kris Humphries went on to say that after his split from Kim Kardashian. There would be times when people would be like, hey, are you Kris Humphries, and he would say, oh, no. I look like him. No. I'm Blake Griffin. Who's an NBA player? And this is where I think it's this is like the heartbreaking part is when he says, I didn't wanna be Kris Humphries. It's the craziest feeling in the world not wanting to be yourself. And I didn't even want to say anything to defend myself because it felt like I couldn't win. You can't go up against the tabloids. You can't go up against that machine. There's no point in even if I played that game I felt like it would be disrespecting the game of basketball saver. They were IQ couple. I never bought him for a second hall over Kim really had. She really she had her original face when she was Chris. Picture of the two of them together. So cute wearing this like pretty neutral dress, and she is. How this wasn't going to work. When she was hanging out on lake Minnetonka. I was like what is going on here. No, there is anything is going to happen here by
