"But do you miss, do you shoot around at all? Yeah, yeah, I shoot around, but I don't play pickup anymore. The fun comes when the great thing is, the gym that I work out every morning at has a full court basketball court. So I'm able to go in and shoot because I work out so early. So a lot of people are not there. So that works out because I love to shoot. Matter of fact, you know, some days I just go in and shoot for like a half hour, 45 minutes. But I wondered how you would be given everybody has to shoot the three or ones to shoot the three now. How do you think your game would be in the modern era or today? Oh, wouldn't change any because what I do, what I specialize in is still as needed in the game today. That's coming down on that fast break and passing it to people and putting them in position to score. So now instead of shooting passing it to the guys that they can do the slam dunk over the layup, I'll be passing for them to shoot the three point shot. So and then you have to remember centers are not centers. So when I play, you had at least two 7 footers almost on the court. Now you don't have that. So, man, I'll be driving that to that back. And I won't have no resistance in today's game, right? But what do you think you could have averaged? If you wanted to. If I was just an offensive minded guy? Yeah, let's say you were you had the green light like Jordan did. Oh, yeah. Well, I probably wouldn't average as much as him, but I could have averaged 28, 29, 30 points a game. That was easy. I did that my whole career in high school. I could have did that at Michigan state too, but it's not about that for me. What it was about was I wanted to win. So when I saw that we had scores like Jamal and Kareem and norm, when I got to the Lakers, I just said, hey, I want to win. So I just said, whatever I need to score to help us win, that's what I'm going to do. And so when Pat Riley finally gave me the green light when Kareem had gotten older, my year is now managing 24, 25 points a game. I could have did that when I walked in. And so, but it's about winning. I didn't care about that. And even today, I still don't care. I just want to win. I want to win. So I've always been like that and I will always be like that. Is it possible Kareem is underrated?

"We talk about this, right? Whatever it is, but it ain't here is what we about to do. Or go get James Harden. The response is, let's see what we can do, right? And maybe you do it, right? It may be it goes. But it's, let's go see what we gonna do, but the next day it had these cats running them around crazy. And people like Josiah had to show he was boss. Well, you kind of do, actually, when you're the boss. I didn't blame them at a point for being like, yo, man, I got a crazy man. Telling me what to do. I got you. I can't handle it. I got you. The thing that gets me is you don't realize, I think we all who don't get at the top of organizations are going to the top of anything. You don't realize that you still work for somebody just because you got the biggest office, you still work for somebody. And if you've ever been around CEOs or talk to CEOs, like they walk around with the ties on and they test out. But see what happened at the earnings call. And see what happened when they get an email from the hedge fund that owns the biggest portion. You all work for somebody. And us in this outside perfume at a sports world, we like the perceived hierarchy, you know, and it's like, oh no, but that's a general manager. He got to make the decisions. No, it's when you work with people. It's much more emotional than anyone and this is lessons that I had to learn the hard way. You know, is understanding that buy in is more important than ideas. And I know this from being a leader in the PA for both PAs, NBA and NFL PA, being a leader there, I remember spending hours and hours at different times alone, putting together what I thought to be incredible playing that would create the most leverage. And it don't matter if your answer is right if the people who you want to execute it don't believe in it. You're much better off with a bad plan or a mediocre plan that y'all came to together that people will buy into than a perfect plan that everybody's looking at. Especially when you're not that old, young mother tell us all they said. That's to your credibility point. It's like Pat Riley might be able to do that. Not every president or GM or owner can just lay down the law like that. It's real though. I realized this didn't work in television, right?

"And then ExxonMobil did it the only thing for was it ten years or maybe longer. I can't remember. It was a long time. Question, do you think as an influencer should stop spreading FUD regarding exchange? You as an influencer. You know, first of all, I'm not an influencer. You know, we're a media company. And we report news. And whether it is FUD, you know, fear uncertainty and doom in the sense of, are we protecting someone in an exchange to be in a position to save their butts, hopefully this news is going to do that. So I would not say that that would be the case. And I don't know if you guys know my background. You know, I've been in media for 20 plus years, run many websites, magazines, events, and platforms like this, and again, we are and really do a lot more than just set out here and do crypto commercials. I mean, our job and ideas are built on research, a lot of data that we only pull in ourselves. So it's a completely different, completely different game. For us, is PayPal safe for crypto. I just we've never used PayPal. We've researched it. I've tested it many times. There's a lot of limitations with it. It does the job for basic elements of crypto, but it's not really a tool set that I would use as a professional. You know, if I was just looking at getting into crypto, maybe for the first time, I'd probably go to Robinhood. And for somebody that is not investing a lot of money and just when I say a lot of money more than $10,000, something of that nature. Again, these are not financial advice items. These are just me interacting with the audience with the way I use my own tool sets around crypto and also around investing as a whole. Sometimes I share a lot of that information as well. Robinhood is about to get dumped by SPF, they'll sell that, which will cause that stock to move. Here we go, John, Pat Riley needs to change the name on the written. Yeah, he's not going to have that. For sure, they already did it. So it's already done. And then you've got Miguel Costa SPF just did what banks do, lend our money. Yeah, I was talking about that earlier. Banks get bailouts, FTX won't. And you're right because they're not dealing with regulatory scrutiny that is around the banking system that somewhat protects the banking system unless the banking system goes rogue like it did in 2008, where we had foreign 80 plus banks fail in 2008. Imagine that 480 banks going out in a stretch of two years in the last big downturn. Most important thing here is transparency for sure.

"And so I imagine that they view themselves as boosting what he is. Even though he's a young player, he grew up in their system. And I mean, let's be real, too. Early on, Jordan Poole was rough. And I'm saying that as someone that was a big supporter of his having watched him at Michigan, which we've already talked about on this podcast. So he was pretty rough and they buffed him up really nicely. It's very clear he put the work in. But he's a shiny diamond right now. For the work that they've done with him, the work he's done with them. So that said, he's still a flawed player. Who looked pretty rough during the finals. And I think that's okay. You know, Boston is a really good defense. But I think the bigger challenge is that this is somewhat similar to hero. He's not a very good defender. I mean, that's putting it lightly. You would hope to see more from him defensively. He's out of position a lot of the time. He just kind of gets blown past a lot of the time. And Hiro is similar, except I think hero maybe doesn't really look the part as much as Jordan Poole does. Like pool looks like you should have a little bit more ability than hero, just looking at their size and everything like that. So with both of them that you would hope to see and Pat Riley even said that about hero, I don't know if the warriors have been vocal about that with pool, maybe because he's a slightly younger player. As far as how long he's been in the game and how long he's been part of this core. So based on that, I mean, I think really the warriors with what they have and what they do. I would imagine that they would try to settle for a lower number than the max. They're not going to want to just give that up. One, because pool has areas of his game that can still really grow. But two, he's also expected to be part of a core where you're going to have a lot of guys reaching into the pod asking for money. Or asking for money and then trying to reach their hand in the pot, whichever way you want to put in. We're talking about draymond wanting a max. Okay, you're probably not going to end up there with him. But it's probably not going to be terribly terribly terribly far off from it. If draymond gets what he wants. You already have step under contract for huge money. I remember clay signing his deal a couple of years ago. I don't know exactly what he's at now. But you know, you've got we're sitting here looking at wiseman. We're looking at all these other guys that could potentially be more than what they are. Wiggins is going to be up for a big payday. How much are you willing to pay pool if it means that you're going to have to let some of these other guys go that could realistically be part of what you're doing for the next two, three, four years. So I don't expect for them to end up at a max level with pool. If he does that, then more power to him and his agent, it would be speaking volumes about what they could do. But I can guarantee that the warriors and I think rightfully so are going to try to push to suppress that number a little bit, just if for no other reason

"That subtle little trade with Oklahoma City at the deadline to punt their draft obligation to the thunder for two years, specifically to enable them to trade more picks now. Duncan Robinson and his $20 million salary fell all the way out the rotation. Extension eligible Tyler hero kind of had a playoffs and then Riley had an interesting comment when asked about hero today. I missed it. What do you say? Basically. I'm not quoting directly, but basically he said, you know, if you want to win and you want to be a starter, you have to be a two way player. Oh, well, I mean, it's no secret that Tyler hero is struggles on defense, but look, by the way, so does dominant Mitchell. Yes, that's true. And the Dallas Mavericks rather will happily share some memories of their first round playoff series this year. Riley also said at age 77, he could do more push ups than you. I don't know if he was talking about you the media in general or you just Tim Reynolds who was the reporter from the AP who I loved him. I saw him tweeting that how many push ups can you do in a row Zach? I was, I don't know, because when I do push ups, I just, I hate push ups, so I just do like 25 and I stop and that's not very many. I realized but I could go on for much longer than that but I don't want to and that's the only that's the set that I want to do so I stop, I would, I would give myself a 60% chance of doing more push ups than Pat Riley. What about you? Well, there's no way I would look as good doing push ups as Pat Riley, who looks amazing doing literally anything from sitting to standing to eating. The hair, the suits, the whole thing. I mean, I would be struggling and grunting Pat Riley would probably be just looking smooth as silk. I have a 60 push up minimum before I get in the shower. It's kind of my way of making sure that I get at least a little bit of exercise on a daily basis. So you got them. You got it. I don't know, man. Pat? Drafted by the Dallas Cowboys, played in the NBA. I know he's from Schenectady from Schenectady and he was tough growing up. You know, pat money, he might have me do those push ups and look real cool. I can't do these where you push up and then you clap and you push up and then you clap. I mean, the heat are definitely in the will train like rocky before the Drago fight. Kind of camp of mixing some of those fingertip push ups. Yeah, I mean, I don't know what we're talking about. Oh, yeah. It would not surprise me if the heat had an internal meeting at some point. They're like, okay, what could we get for hero Duncan two first round pick? Should we call Utah about that? To me, because they're hungry. Pat said it today. Give me an upgrade. It's something cool. Like, give me an upgrade. I'll take it as long as he fits here. Like it's no secret that the heat go big, big star hunting all the time. And the way the playoffs unfolded in the financial realities that are coming, I think that's changed the Donovan Mitchell landscape if it ever. This is all up to Donovan Mitchell. If he says I want to play for the jazz, there is no landscape, but if there's uncertainty, I think that part of it has changed a little bit. Yeah, option a, B, C, D, E, for the jazz, is continue building around Donovan Mitchell. You know, at some point, I anticipate that Donovan will put pressure on the jazz to find an alternative. Again, I don't know if that's this summer deadline, next summer, I don't know when that will be. Certainly, Donovan will have less leverage in terms of where what the trade destination to trade partner would be if he would do it now when he'd have three guaranteed years left on that contract. I think it's probably safe to say that the Knicks have not made it appealing to the jazz to do business with them. With some of the, I mean, let's just be honest with worldwide west showing up and sitting front row for the playoff opener. After all the other stuff that they've done in terms of creating rumors, so on and so forth. Miami's definitely interested. I think donville would absolutely be excited about that. He trains in Miami during the off season, obviously he would love to play for a contender. There's no question that the heat fit in that category. Duncan Robinson is not a positive trade asset at this time. It's a reach. It's a you got to love Tyler hero. You got to see stardom in Tyler hero. Yeah, and the heat are still limited in terms of what picks. How many picks they can offer. But I would put that in. But the other thing is, if Donovan wants to decide to push that issue this summer, I think what the jazz do is open it up to all bidders, kings, you want to put off on the table. Hey, pacers. You always open it up to the kings. Always. Yeah. And, you know, at that Donovan Mitchell's happiness is their concern. One of their, you can argue their primary concern. Right up until the point where they realize, hey, he's leaving, so at that point, his happiness ain't your problem. Tim McMahon, you got to go, I've got to go Google some Halloween costumes for next year. I gotta start getting prepared. Quin Snyder's ahead of me. I got you guys start focusing on what's really important, which is Halloween. Tim McMahon, your work is second to none on all these beats. Thanks for joining us and I'll see you down the road.

"I have a hard time voting against Pat Riley both absolutely phenomenal. Again, I lean Phil Jackson because again, he's the top of my list against anybody. So I have to go with him, but Pat Riley absolutely incredible as well. Stop stealing my answers. That's rude. Is that exactly what you were going to say? Literally. Let's see, I've got a Ron, sarmiento said, why buy second rounders when you could just sign them like HBK? So we need to talk about that because sometimes we see things that happen happens once and we just assume, oh, just do that every single time. You know what I mean? And that's just not the way it works. Hey, go buy GameStop at $13, and then sell it at four 40. Every single time. Why can't we just do this all the time? Because every situation is unique. So with a guy like Austin Reeves and I know I just compared Austin Reeves to GameStop. They made some people millionaires. But Austin Reeves, I've talked to him about this..

"When you talk about Riley, Chris, I mean, look, prior to him arriving in the early 90s, it's worth mentioning here. The Knicks were not a good basketball team. There were a couple of bright spots here and there, Rick Pitino had a good season, blah, blah, blah. But even with Patrick Ewing there, getting drafted, of course, in 1985, famously frozen envelope lottery, et cetera this was a team that was mediocre and then Pat Riley gets there and all of these things that you're describing. How would you begin to characterize his philosophies when it came to his arrival in New York from the very beginning? It was a complete one 80 from what he'd been doing in Los Angeles. With magic at the controls, the Lakers fast break style became known as showtime. I think Pat Riley very wisely looked at the roster and said, that's not going to be possible here. He didn't have guys that could just kind of run up and down the floor. He looked at who the powerhouse was or who the powerhouse was becoming and Michael Jordan and the bulls. Essentially, he took what the pistons had been doing and looked at what the pistons had been doing with the bad boys. And said, you know, it's not too bad of a strategy. You know, we're going to be the best condition, hardest working, most professional, unselfish, toughest, nastiest, most disliked even in the end. And part of that was going to be hacking opponents so relentlessly that the officials eventually had to stop calling foul. And that was his idea, was a really physically imposing team that really wasn't concerned about the way they were perceived. It was a team that practiced longer than anybody that treated it shoot around the same way that other teams treated their full scale practices. He had them on edge constantly. Well, when you talk about people being on edge, yes, it is opponents. Yes, it is teammates. Yes, it is coaches and over all of this, right? Is the godhead of Pat Riley. I mean, I'll use this word. I think appropriately, tell me how insane Pat Riley really was in terms of him and his paranoia and his desire to be that one figure in control of everything here. Yeah, I mean, where do you even start? Pat Riley didn't basically want anybody else being able to speak directly to his players. Had a problem with the idea of the team psychologist being able to work with the players. Team scouts, people that worked for the team, had to give prior notice if they wanted to come and watch practice. Because Pat Riley did not want people around the team that weren't around the team every day. I have found myself over the last four or 5 years becoming more and more insulated. Less and less accommodating. To me, that is perceived as somebody who is all of a sudden becoming aloof and becoming arrogant and becoming detached, but I think that's the only way you can survive. Not to mention the idea of him asking the film coordinator to gin up videos of car crashes and rams head butting each other violently to try to get the team to play more violently on defense. Not to mention that he would ask the team trainer to go get him baseball spikes so that he could slide into the pregame talk that he was going to give to his team. Oh man. Basically to say that play always play aggressively as if you're sliding into somebody with your spikes up. Not to mention the idea of him dunking his head underwater for two, three, three and a half minutes at a time. Just so that he can come out gasping for air and then saying, you all should want to win as much as I needed that breath that just took. Again, when we talk about stuff that would not fit today's standards, a lot of that is relevant to pet Riley. Let's talk about the soldiers in the foxhole with him because the guys on this roster that embodied that unhinged intensity. I mean, give us the casting call. So yet Patrick Ewing obviously you start with that. And interestingly enough, I don't think at first tough as he was, he was not the guy who was really instigating much. You know, I think if anything, he was the guy they were looking to protect because they needed him. He was too important to really get in fights and two important to really give up.

"You know, I'd have to imagine, at least in his early days with the Celtics and certainly before that, you know, like I want to be a pop or I want to be Pat Riley or I want to be, you know, Phil Jackson like all this perfect world like I want to coach forever and I want to win a bunch of championships. You know, or like, oh, we'll see how this goes, even when he got the job. But I want to get back to coaching. How do you think he feels about it right now? Like, do you think this is a role that he wants to hold for a long time? Well, I wouldn't know about that. But I do know if he's not enjoying it now. He will never enjoy it because it's never going to be better than what he has right now. I mean, it's all downhill from here. Well, she's short of winning a championship anyway. Yeah, they'll never go as well as this. Every movie's made is worked out. And the coach is working out great. And you know, it's an underdog story to quote Bill Murray. Yeah. So I mean, this is, again, it's all perfect right now. You know, Adam, when you look at the roster individually of the players that they have, and when people were criticizing Danny ainge, it was for some of the draft picks he made, who are some of these players. You know, some of these guys before the last few months were being criticized for not shouldn't have been picked. There is definitely some of the parts thing going on with this team. Where if you took some of these guys and put them on other NBA teams, Elle Horford is a perfect example of what the film disappeared in Oklahoma City said, well, you're good. We might win too many games with you, but nobody's been talking. Nobody's talking about a Horford is like one of your favorite that's been, by the way. Yeah. Yeah. Or grant or a lot of these guys. So you put them on other teams, and you'd say, wow, why did we want this guy so badly? He's not doing for us when he did for Boston. But it works right now with this team because everybody's doing what they're supposed to do at the highest level. It's just working out great for them. But so it's good of a job as Brad has done with some of the trades and it's all what you were talking about earlier. So all of it coming together and fitting together and creating balance to the picture. The way artists talk about you have to have balance in a painting and, you know, have the sun in the upper corner and something darkness down here and all that kind of stuff..

"Credit for it now? Because I came up with the sprays, I have no idea where it comes from, but it's part of the social lexicon. And music is like that art is like that. All things are like that. And to say, okay, this person owns this phrase or this, you know, I mean, athletes for some reason like to trademark phrases, right? And it's like, oh no, like Pat Riley apparently owns the trademark to three peat or something like that because he did it with the Lakers. And that seems ridiculous to me. Why do you get to own a word? It doesn't really, so for that reason, you might consider it cheap. You might consider whatever, but if you're making something new, what's wrong with that? Daft Punk's famous song. They sampled some 70s song and they took three beats from it and then created that whole thing. And it became this phenomenon hit in music. And you know, like even like vanilla ice, the ice ice baby song, he just took the riff, but he wrapped over it. And that rap itself is a very new thing. And to say, oh, it's a derivative work. So I'm gonna be all stubby, and tell you that it's not as good. Well, you have the right to do that. And a lot of people will rag on the ice ice baby song or whatever. But as an artist, why are you bound by other people saying, well, that's my property now, because I made that beat 30 years ago. How is it yours in any you've put it out into the world and the music's everywhere on the radio and everything else? The whole intellectual property thing seems kind of disingenuous to me. And besides, most artists nowadays, they're making most of their money off of, you know, like performance and stuff like that anyway..

"What ended up happening is they signed a hundred Miller for, I think, 50, 51, 49. I think it's 51. And they said, well, we'll get Gilbert 52. And my agent was like, well, thank you for pushing the number of the 51 because you signed a Volkswagen for Ferrari money. He signed the and I'm not going to let my Ferrari sign for a $1 million over that Volkswagen. You got over there, right? But thank you for pushing a number up. So because he signed at 51, I knew I was at least at least $10 million ahead of him. And then I knew. Lamar Odom was above me. So I'm trying to figure out what Lamar is going to sign. Lamar is trying to figure out what I'm going to sign. So then I just, you know, I didn't go to Denver. I mean, I didn't go to Utah, but Utah offered, you know, like 72, and I'm like, what the hell's happening over here? 72, oh my God, went to the clippers. They started off at 55. So they just went above Denver. So from there, because we're asking for max, everyone is trying to with my, I talk to Pat Riley. Pat Riley was not happy about 55. He was like, I do not believe in young players. We just drafted a kid named Dwayne Wade. We would love to have them both as the one and the two, but we want the way in the tried to play the one. $55 million max is pretty, pretty, it's pretty high for a player who's really not proven. So, you know, they were on a fence still. So I go to Washington, my dad asked.

"So hey that's a that's a question. I've never thought about never really wondered about. I don't quite think durant will close the gap to that extent do you. What do you think about that. Well i was thinking about like you know. I'm not a rings person but there is a world where durant more titles and absolutely were finals. Ap's and I think if that were to happen if he finishes with five rings and you know bangs out three in a row here with the nets or three or four or whatever because harden stays like. I just you know these. I just don't know how you're going to stop this team. And i know it's a fool's errand to look ahead at the nba. I know that but if if harden had signs an extension and if those stay healthy they're just going to be in the finals like just come on like they're incredible So i mean if finishes with five rings if he finishes with more total playoff points than michael jordan then. I think it'll be you know when we're just looking at numbers it'll be like oh like kevin durant career absolutely ridiculous and i think in the moment. It's just always been lebron lebron. The browns lebron is lebron. The greatest player ever blah blah blah. But like if duran is when it's all said and done just kind of firmly in scottsd- as the greatest scorer ever and everyone's like hey this guy's defense was also incredible and blah blah blah. I don't know. I just think it's like it's just a fascinating Like thought exercise just how people will reflect on both of their careers and like i just think katie is just phenomenal. And unstoppable in a way that lebron is as well. So i don't know i just think it's interesting. It's fascinating question. I'm i'm sitting here looking at my bookshelf. And i've got the bird magic book that jackie macmullan wrote with them and That's a that i don't. I don't think we've had that sort of question to ask really since that era. I mean it's interesting for the research i had to do for my next book You know going back and looking at every youtube interview you can find. There's one that i always thought was really interesting. Between when patra there was one year when pat riley after you left the lakers and before he took over the knicks that he didn't interview with michael jordan. And it was right on the cusp of michael jordan making his first finals appearance and pat. Riley asked him. You know as. I guess you know sitting in an anchor share reporters chair basically We'll see working for nbc for that. It was like a year. He took he was working for. Nbc us in the studio with bob kaas and He asked michael. You know and that that was probably the beginning stages to of win like former coaches and former players would interview current players. And so you start. I remember when. Espn magic to like the sunday conversations with different people where he talked to kobe. It was always easier because players are more comfortable talking to former players in their reports that they don't know as well but anyway pat riley asked michael kind of if you never if you never won a title Would you feel as if you were somehow failure in some way like..

Honest has lum and it's not something they've ever done for a player before. And i can't remember you guys. I don't think can give me an example of any team in this market respecting a guy this way. They've basically retired his jersey. Wylie's wearing it. He's on the team. They might as well just raise it with him in it. He's on the team wearing a uniform. But he is there to simply symbolize wat- pat riley and micky arison and eric's bolster an andy ellsberg and nick erickson. Nick garrison would like to project to miami. This is our guy.

I think pat riley's nearing don shula's tenure down here in south florida. And this is his guy this is. Does anyone in our audience. Remember the you donnas. Has lem was fat at the university of florida. Yeah even though. I try to forget that he was at the university of florida. Which i've i was actually cool with it with his explanation. Because has them he rips the you. Even though he went to florida in it's allowed because tell them different and honestly he said he was just a business decision he goes. He goes from being a fat kid at the university of florida. Where did he go when he played overseas because he is undrafted and he is this. Team's leader in rebounds franchise leader in rebounds franchise leader and loyalty franchise leader in tenure. French lie franchise leader in representing the club. Well with toughness and caring about miami. This is a guy who's going to get the ending that he wants and the emotional link between part of our audience. Mike because i really don't know how the people listening to this field. I'm guessing they're the reason i started. The question about allowing guys to age with grace is because i don't know if a bunch of young people are listening and are like just shut up about the sentiment and the emotion of don handsome. Give me that spot on the bench. So that i can get a young guy better. He's not gonna play..

Could get us fired up to where and we do this is the metaphorically run through the wall type of things, you know, but we run to the wall for him but because we knew he was with the team with us. Maybe he was back in our head was hitting the wall and going to walk through, but we busted our hands to get through it, still that kind of science behind it or less psychologically, motivating technique that you use as a gift, the players to play for one month. Everybody by in she's done that with a team. You talk about plays in The Big Three. You've got some things where you can do it through Man game or you're running running motion offense and you're freaking away and doing some ocean wage. That's all it is. But again, it's just about the big three main things about having a good two people that can go George Gervin. This year has a team called ghost Ballers and the ghost ball is a 3 and one and George was like oh and 8 I mean, oh no, he's two and eight last year, but now you got kid named Mike Taylor. He has a guy named Chris Johnson. I believe he has bought a Ricky. Ricky Ricky gave Nikki Davis. The sales Celtic. Yeah, those guys are playing well together, but this might Taylor kids, he's probably the most hip hop. Hip hop is changing always dancing before the games. And, you know, they make this big intro, but they're playing extremely well. So, in Georgia, sits over there like this, he doesn't move or anything. He sits, and every now and then, he'll go. I really do believe he's just moving his mouth. He's not saying he'll go. And.

He's hard to replace and chris to all your points. They're great point. I don't disagree with anything you said. Your perspective is spot on but remember. He just scored thirty points a game to the playoffs with eight rebounds four assists and there were a couple of nights against dallas and then when it gets utah when he just looked absolutely dominant on both ends of the floor. Maybe they're few and far between is he's about to turn or just turned thirty on june twenty nine hundred thirty years of age but he is an aging thirty agree and he does have arthritic knees to start with. That's thank you. The the need that he taught a partial tear that the same mia tend to know sicilian. Yes it is. Okay so in. Remember as i detail for shannon.

"pat riley" Discussed on First Things First
"You know something that was needed is certainly needed to be done. And there's a great outcome. So i'm very happy about that. I feel it'd be. They'll do some different things. This year that i was able to do last year. Oh oh great. Tell hey brandon tom. Brady's comments on his off. Season surgery are blank. Sounds good geno. That's what the answer is. You just saw lebron james on the shop here. Jay come in sit in a chair and they talked and and lebron says some interesting. You talked about your player and you go to that. I camp. You'll never be one hundred percent again. So i don't know why players continue to tell ourselves this slimy. I keep saying i'm retired. I'm done but wears you always think you're going to get back to one hundred percent so soon as you bring that car out of the garage. It's going to get rained on. Somebody's gonna get when you park it so you'll never be one hundred percent again so it sounds good but soon as you get the camp. You're going to be done with something that's going to be. An ankle was going to be a hamstring is going to be quite the best players in the world. Find a way to get it done to play at a high level dealing with something so sounds good so this is confounding for me and listen i am the shows historian and archivist but wild is the tom brady resident historian and archivist. What is he talking abou that his knee preventing him from doing that. He used to do with his career. Tom brady's most famous runs all. Have one thing in common wild. They're six inches. Forward on a quarterback sneak a lack of agility or mobility hurting him. In a way that i have forgotten so help. Explain it to me wild because for the time being this is quite confused. Well sure. I'm happy to explain to you. Tom brady is a mobile quarterback. He's had three one hundred yard rushing seasons back earlier in his career. The last three seasons in new england he ran for twenty eight yards. Thirty five yards and thirty four yards in tampa bay. He only ran for six total yards. That means he fell off by a multiple of five so now knees. I'm looking at it. Return to greatness look for about a thirty seven yard season five times and the code is back was. We've talked about that yesterday while fair point. Don't run they just sit there. Hit older top. Some lebron james. He's changing numbers again. He's not number twenty. Three's going back to the number six that he also warned miami. A will reportedly keep three despite twenty becoming available my favorite number twelve for purposes of this story. Hey brandon oh lebron changing from twenty. Three fact is blank. Listen lebron such a great teammate. I don't think this is about lebron. James like i was going to go with a hidden message and trying to figure out what it means. And how symbolic it is. But i think this is more about a d. and an opportunity for a d. When i went from the denver broncos to the miami dolphins i couldn't fifteen wasn't available head to play in nineteen and it just felt uncomfortable to the point where my gain suffered a little bit. Czar truly believe. This is a missed opportunity for. Why wouldn't you take this layup. He's giving you the alleyoop. Take number three so you can get back to where you work now. You flashed in a bubble but this past year. I don't know what happened. So i think this is lebron james like you know what i felt this a little bit. I had to do a little little bit of changing the numbers back in the day. So i'm gonna give it back to you and now he's sitting there saying i'm gonna stay with number three mccowan get it yes. So that's an interesting angle. The anthony davis part of it. And there's a lot of ways to attack this. Listen i could use this. I'm here to mention that. Lebron james is also going to be number six in space jam. Which of course comes out july sixteenth. You can buy your tickets now. But i'm not a ship so instead i'm going to talk about somebody else. This is actually great for devon booker. it's a boon for both wilde's all of a sudden devon booker has in his possession. The last ever lebron. James game worn twenty three jersey. That was already a thing in of itself but if that is actually the last time he ever wore a twenty. Three jersey and devon booker has it. That's a hell of a coup for him. It's all coming up sons right now on the booker. So this is i. Think a boon kerr booker. I mean i guess devon booker also is gonna sign like a two hundred million dollar extensions or new contract. Yeah i don't know if the jerseys financial value gets richer jersey extra named devon which is okay Here's my thing and bring them to throw it back to you. get ready. i. I love this story because as much as i like watching lebron james play. I also like trying to figure out the easter eggs that he lays all over social media and changing. My jersey. wanted to remember. This story starts because pat riley decided to retire. jordan's jersey. While jordan was with the wizards. The wizards came to play the heat and pat. Riley is like you know what we're going to retire your jersey for the heat. No one in the heat will ever wear twenty three. So the only two teams have jordan's number retired are the bulls and the heat in. Your memory is not choosing. He never played for the heap. So then i believe that was the incidents of why lebron had to change his jersey. But i want to get to our friend. Brennan marshall brandon. You just slyly said your game suffered because you had to change to ever nineteen. I don't think you were just kind of saying it. I think you were really out there. Like dropping balls look down you saw nineteen. You're like get rid of this and then the ball jeff. How did that actually play out. Wow i don't know man you see it. All the time. One player goes to another team. They pay twenty thirty. Forty fifty sixty thousand for jersey is symbolic men. Guys grow up wearing the same number is a mental thing. We talked about our mindset. So i don't know. All i know is. I was a pro player in denver. Averaging one hundred five catches a year. And i'll get to miami in all of a sudden got eighty catches. It was like i was nervous. It's like i'm just ask one follow in of ball heading into weird and wonderful. Because in denver your quarterback jay cutler in chicago. Your quarterback was jay cutler. Who was the quarterback in miami who owe anything is possible. Your boy hitting anything while that. Turn tyler matt moore.

Hero has done this thing that pat riley likes to call the disease of me. Okay when you have a certain level of success you guys start feeling themselves a little bit. That's basically the and he's you know he coined that phrase back when he was coaching. The lakers and tyler young kid. Impressionable kid from wisconsin played at kentucky for one year. Living in miami a lot to take in and he's got an eye g-girlfriend. I'm not saying that it's a bad thing. I'm just saying that they that they liked to live a certain lifestyle. That's public right. And what happens is when you live that lifestyle public and you regress from a on court perspective. People start to look at that and wonder Does that play a part in this. Show you open yourself up for those criticisms in those situations you also jack harlow music video where he shouted you out So i think all that stuff is stuff that worries a guy like pat riley who has always seen that has seen that stuff transpire. As the coach of the lakers as the coach of the knicks as the coach and president of the miami heat. he's p- he's been involved with three of the most with three organizations where it's easy to get lost in the sauce

Meanwhile, the Lakers you had white stars like Kurt Rambis. The black team, So we did that. Where'd that come from? I thought it was just two guys trying to win a game. I've got the right idea.

LeBron James and the Miami Heat: From Champions to Breakup to NBA Finals Opponents
"Brian Windhorst you have spent I think the last decade of your life trying to establish successfully establishing by the way that you are a lot more than the Lebron guy after knowing and covering him longer than any other human being in our business dating back to your high school days in Akron and then even through the time you famously up and moved to Miami to cover him there. So I just want to begin by apologising for pulling you back into the orbit of the same son we've been worshiping for now seventeen years well I wouldn't be here but for Lebron I, extraordinarily fortunate to meet him when He. Was Fourteen years old his move to Miami in open the door for me to come to ESPN. So I, Oh, Lebron immensely, and while all of us want to spread our wings as we get older certainly would never shy away from or or tire from looking at this this guy because he's been influential character in my life and thankfully and influential character in the history of the NBA. Yeah. That was incredibly well said but now it's time to get super messy because in this case in this series where there are so many different interesting storylines and angles, it does feel like past might be prologue. I want to go back ten years now. It is July ninth, two, thousand and ten and Lebron James is introduced to heat fans for the first time along with Dwayne Wade and Chris. Bosh introduced to the NBA really for the first time as this big three and Lebron is asked about his plan for winning championships in Miami. Three kings came down here to win championships. Not One championship to Lebron. Tell us about that not too on. Now. Now by. Not. Fix. So at that moment. How did the Miami Heat See Lebron era playing out? Pat Riley thought that that was. The Greatest Dynasty team that he had ever been able to be a part of. Better than magic and Kareem and James Worthy. Better. Than Shack and Dwayne Wade better than the hopeful teams that he had with the next with Patrick Ewing and Allan Houston John starks. He thought this was one of the greatest teams in the history of the NBA. He saw a horizon for a decade where they would be in the finals year after year after year and maybe they wouldn't win it every year and maybe they wouldn't win five six or seven Lebron said, but they would rack up. It was going to be his sunset team. He was going to ride this dynasty out and then go into the sunset and it was an incredible for years. It was one of the most prolific four year runs in the history of the NBA, but it wasn't that dynasty and Pat. Riley, has never one hundred percent ever gotten over.

NBA Reveals Refs Missed 17 Calls for Rockets, 11 for Warriors in Game 1
"About officials during the NBA playoffs is nothing new, but the rockets apparently took it to the next level yesterday. Preparing a report to show that the refs cost them a trip to the NBA finals last season. We'll see how all this noise about bad calls affects tonight's game two and the rest of this series. But there's no easy answer. When it comes to officiating. James harden, something we talked about yesterday at great length. He's physical. He's unorthodox. He draws. Contact. He likes contact. He's always going to get a lot of calls. But the question is is he getting the right calls. It's important to remember. None of this is new because players and coaches have been complaining forever. You can Google Tim Duncan Joey Crawford or watch Phil Jackson, Pat, Riley work, the officials, and if you think Hardin is hard to officiate imagine trying to officiate a game, which akilah Neil. There's no perfect solution here, and you can't blame the rockets for at least trying to gain an advantage here a tight competitive series, and it may come down to how it's called. And it won't be the first time for sport. That's very difficult to officiate Steve Kerr had a little bit of fun with this yesterday at his press conference. He had this to say about fouls Kolding game on the focus should be on. Team's plane. Extremely hard me watching the he'll bowl teams just got after and competed. But you know, we just watched the tape upstairs. You don't think there were ten calls. We thought we got fouled in this is out goes, and every coaching illegal tell you the same thing, you watch the tape, and you hope man, that's that's. It's the nature game. It's it's very very difficult to officiate an NBA game. There's all kinds of gray area. And you know in the modern game. You know, a lot of players have have gotten really good at deception creating contact. Okay. Steve Kerr thrown out some verbal bouquets their complementing the officials. How would he feel if they lost game one? You know, they missed a lot of calls out there. The NBA has this two minute video review were they look at the calls. They missed and they admitted that they miss him calls in this game. My problem with the the rockets is let's live in the now, let's not be looking back to game seven last year. I got a problem with that. You gotta be Golden State. And it's now it's not you know, you guys caused us the NBA finals last year. Okay. How did you guys shoot? You miss twenty seven consecutive three pointers in that game. Was that the officials? Yes, that's because they were fouled apparently apparently all of them. What do they shoot like eight for forty four from three point range in game seven last year on your home floor? Yes. You didn't have Chris Paul? You should've won that game. But don't live in the past. And if you wanna bring attention to this now now all of a sudden, you're going down into your basement into your lab, and you're looking at all this. Video and say look at all of these miss calls. You had. Okay. The officials. Are you saying the officials are favoring the Golden State Warriors? Are you saying that's what I want to hear are these just bad officials is their favouritism?

Warriors can learn from Showtime Lakers after Durant-Green meltdown
"You're listening to the spoken edition of the San Francisco Chronicle. Warriors can learn from Showtime Lakers after Durant green meltdown by Scott Osler opportunity knocks before Monday nights courtside meltdown between Draymond green. And Kevin Durant. The warriors were on their way to making history by winning their fourth NBA title in five years, maybe on their way to a couple more titles after that big stuff. They figured to go down in history as phenomenal team with an asterisk so much talent that it was impossible to lose. Now, the warriors can wipe out the asterisk and stamp themselves. As a team that transcends its greatness and teaches the world lessons in character, toughness and brotherhood. If the warriors managed to survive this crisis and win another title, and maybe keep the band together going into next season. Even the doubters and haters will be forced to admit men. This is a team it won't be. Easy. This one goes deep. The case can be made that the warriors were born as championship team in their preseason finale in twenty four teen when power forward David Lee pulled a hamstring. Green was moved into the starting lineup and the warriors won twenty one of their first twenty three games. And haven't looked back does the dynasty now. Die with green. Well, that's up to him to Durant and their teammates one thing that might help. Stop throwing around the cliche that the warriors are like a family and every family has squabbles. Most families Aren composed of multimillionaires from vastly different backgrounds. Superstars, all whose performances and personal lives are inspected and critiqued on a daily basis by millions. If the warriors are a family there the Kardashians. Except that the Kardashians are forced to get along. They have no other options. What is going to leave the show and do summer stock? The warriors. In trying to hold things together and rise above the mess. They've created might wanna give Magic Johnson or Kareem Abdul-Jabbar call back in the eighties. Those to lead the Showtime Lakers to five NBA titles and three other trips to the finals, and I kind of image is the ecstatic Johnson bear hugging Obdulio Jabbar moments after they won their first NBA game together in nineteen seventy nine to the outside world. That's how the Lakers wore for a decade. Conjoined quintuplets fused at the heart. But those two main men magic and Kareem were not tight. It would be hard to find two personalities more destined for conflict. Everybody could see that. We weren't favored POWs or buddies the first three or four years Johnson told sportswriter Steve Springer in me when we co wrote a book about those days magic and the other players tiptoed around Abdul Jabbar, the Mikhael center big fella as they called him soaked public. Weekly. When Johnson got fat new contract. Johnson privately longed for the day when Obdulio jabbar's retirement would allow him to unleash his full array of offensive talents throwing elements of sex drugs and rock and roll a legion doubters and haters and a complex cast of teammates all unfolding onto the spotlight of Hollywood and the birth of the new NBA, and it's a wonder Showtime held together for ten minutes. Let alone ten years in retrospect, it looked so smooth but old fans. Remember, how Johnson became the first athlete ever to fire his head coach and how the front office dynamited team chemistry by trading a beloved all-star, nor Nixon and how the players nearly mutinied at what they perceived as the theatrical tyranny of head coach, Pat Riley, it would take volumes to explain how it worked. But for Johnson it all came down to his pet phrase that seemed as shallow as the LA river. But was as deep as the Pacific Ocean. It's winning time back then parsing out the relative blame in credit was impossible, and useless. Same now with the warriors where does green register on the one to ten guild scale six point five when is Durant going to get that huge warriors forever neck tattoo. We all know how warriors owner Joe lak- feels about the organization, but we're about to find out if this team is light years ahead of the rest of the NBA in unity and character or just another group of skilled squad lers in Steve Kerr, the warriors couldn't possibly have a better head coach to guide them through this turbulence if Dr Phil judge Judy and Jimmy Fallon somehow had a kid it would be Kerr. But this one is on the players. The warriors challenge might be even harder than the one faced by the stone-age Lakers back in the days before Twitter and podcasts, but the concept is the same. Same. It's winning time. There's the time clock warriors. Do you punch in or punch out?

Paul George of Oklahoma City Thunder sides with Jimmy Butler
"Reports have. Surfaced, George Sodano from ESPN is the main source of this. He says that the heat and the timber wolves had a deal done for Jimmy Butler. The two teams were exchanging medicals, which is the universal sports. Signed of a trade is done is. Now, let's make sure that this guy doesn't have a need. That's about to explode. They were exchanging the medicals and Tom tibidow called Pat Riley and asked for an additional piece to throw in at the last minute in the deal, Pat Riley called him in for and hung up. The phone on him. But as you've read reports all week for major awards and asking others. The two teams will certainly the heat hope to reengage with the timber wolves here before too long. My question is. How long till the nuggets get in there. How long till the nuggets decide you know, what let's throw our hat into the ring we have been through this as an organization before at some point this situation becomes untenable with a superstar that wants out the nuggets dealt with that with Carmelo Anthony. So. Could we potentially take advantage because my my guess is? That the nuggets have. You know, thrown at taxed maybe sent a Facebook message to the timber wolves. My guess is they haven't pushed very hard. Nothing more than just overtures and normal GM GM speak. Because one if you believe reports the nuggets label, Gary Harris is untouchable along with Nicole Yokich Jamal Murray, which I think is a nice thought, but. Let's be fair. At what those three guys are one of those guys does not have as high as ceiling as the other two, right? Like, I love Gary Harris. And I love what he's become but to label. Gary Harris untouchable is a little bit. Surprising. So there's that. But then there's also the idea of why in the world would the timber wolves wanted trae Jimmy Butler to the team that they just barely beat out for the postseason last year. And while that's still a valid question. If I were on, Minnesota's sports talk radio. I would be saying do not trade Jimmy Butler two the nuggets if you got to get rid of them get rid to the Eastern Conference. But again, how long? Can put up with questions like that. How long can Scott late in deal with being yelled at at practice by Jimmy Butler? How long can Karl Anthony towns Andrew Wiggins and Jimmy Butler awkwardly tiptoe around each other in the timber wolves locker room? I would say
