Speaker 1 (00:00):
Boom, Shaka laka.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our number three, our number three on this Friday,
with lame jokes. Later in the hour, the big news
in basketball a rejection of a ninety million dollar contract offer.
Does Austin Reeves turning down the extension mean his days
with the Lakers are numbered? Also, Yannis trade rumors popping
(00:26):
up again. Would you translate the cryptic report on the
Greek freak for the regular guy?
Speaker 1 (00:32):
We'll do that.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
And should Brooklyn fans be worried the NBA people were
going out of their way to make fun of the
Nets draft picks in the first round, We'll talk about
that as well. Right now, settle in, it's our number three.
Austin is Boston or Boston?
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Welcome?
Speaker 2 (00:52):
In the beginning of another hour of the Ben Malors Show.
We are in the air mrewear sound waves, soul mates,
as we are on a chicken run, a late night
chicken run. Mack Mack mack, chicken coast to coast, border
(01:13):
to motor and beyond on the mast and immeasurably powerful
microphones of fs are emmating live from the dressing. No no, no,
not the salad dressing, the window dressing from the Fox
Sports Radio studios, as approved by Alameedloo from that little
(01:34):
dive bar in Oakland. This portion of the Ben Mather
Show made possible by tire Rack. For over forty years,
Tyraq has been helping customers find the right tires for how,
what and where they drive, ship fast and free back
by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like
mobile tire installation tire raq dot com the way tire
(01:58):
buying should be, so our lead this hour is from
pro Bouncy Ball the second round of the Draft. Cannot
wait to see how few people watched the second round
of the draft. I mean, I don't know anyone that
checked it out. I didn't watch it, and normally I'm
always looking for stuff to get content out of and isa, no,
I had no interest in the second round.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
I have no interest.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Passed like the fifth pick of the first round of
the draft, and according to the ratings, neither did you
or you or you as very few people tuned in
after the first two picks of the draft. But our
lead is from the NBA. They held the second round
and that's not much of a talker. There is some
compelling sports talk radio content from La La Land as
(02:45):
the Lakers continue to have a disastrous offseason, the very rocky,
very rocky, if you've not heard the latest on this.
In a huge embarrassment to the once proud Laker franchise
guard Austin Reeves, a scrub nobody who's become somebody with
the Lakers, turning down a four year, ninety million dollar extension,
(03:10):
rejecting the Lakers says, I don't want your money, i
don't need your money. I'm not going to take your money,
opting instead to test the free agent market after the
upcoming season. Now, Reeves does have one more year remaining
on his contract and a player option which he's clearly
not going to accept, and then he is free to
(03:32):
roam around, roam around the wacky wacky world of pro
bouncy ball. So let us discuss the question, does Austin
Reeves turning down a massive extension does this mean his
days with the Lakers are numbered?
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Plot thickens.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
So I've got Taylor Swift, Southern Pacific Railroad, and dart throwing,
and we will combine all of these things together and
going to take a nice bath is what we're going
to take. So, first of all, to answer the question Reeves,
Austin Reeves turning down this ninety million dollar extension doesn't
(04:10):
mean his days with the Lakers are number absolutely, absolutely,
one hundred percent. Now, you can kid yourself and say
that's not the case, but the real ones know, the
real ones know here that Reeves is betting on himself. Now,
he's betting on himself. And while certainly cash is king,
every man, woman and child knows that cash is king
(04:31):
in this case, it's not only about the money, right
thee the low information fan will say, oh, it's just
about the money. That Reeves declined the deal because he'll
be eligible for a two hundred forty seven million dollar
contract the max deal with the Lakers over four years,
or a five year deal for two forty seven Then
if he doesn't stay with the Lakers, he can leave
(04:53):
and go somewhere else and get a one hundred and
eighty three million So either way, he's going to get
a lot more money than he would have gotten if
he had signed the extension. However, there's a bigger underlying condition. Now,
don't shoot the messenger here, but there's an issue the
Lakers cannot address. They cannot pacify Austin Reeves.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
No matter what they do.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
And as William Shakespeare in Hamlet said, to be or
not to be a headliner, And that's the issue here.
Are you going to be an above the marquee player?
Are you going to be a player that moves the needle?
Are those things that are important to you?
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Are they?
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Those are questions that Austin Reeves is going to have
to answer. Do you want to be the straw that
stirs the drink or just an ice cube that melts
in the drink. And if Austin Reeves chooses to stay
with that ugly ass Laker uniform, he will never be
the man, He'll never be above the marquee, He'll never
(05:58):
be that player. He will be pigeonholed to supporting actor.
That's it right. He'll have a seat at the kitty table,
not the cronups table, the kitty table there. And last
year they had Lebron and Anthony Davis, and now coming
up this year it's going to be Lebron and Luca
and then the third wheel, the tersary contributor would be
(06:22):
Austin Reeves. So if Austin Reeves hopes to be Taylor
Swift and get out there and start crooning. He's got
to leave. He's got to go somewhere else. And you
can't be the man unless you leave the man behind.
And he can stay with the Lakers and be a
backup singer if you want to do that. You know
(06:43):
who wants to do that. Maybe he does. Otherwise, got
to get out of there. You're not ever going to
be the ribbi on the menu. You are going to
be the Salisbury steak with lumpy mashed potatoes. That is
what you're going to be if you stay there. And
let's also not forget that Austin Reeves Whift absolutely vanished,
(07:04):
which I loved every misshot and every awkward moment in
the playoffs against the Minnesota basketball team. So he's been
on himself. I would be surprised if he stays with
the Lakers. I think he's gotta have his eyes wandering here.
And why would you want to stay with the Lakers anyway,
Go make your own mark and don't be a second
wheel or third wheel rather as he is with the
(07:26):
Lakers now. Secondly, speaking of gossip in pro bouncy, but
we go to Milwaukee, where the cheese curds are fresh
and the basketball is getting stale.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
So some chatter here, some rumors.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
If you thought the ink was dry on the Yannis
Adentakombo saga, you are a loser.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Think again.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
So we're now hearing that Yannis is still evaluating O
m G. He's still evaluating the Milwaukee Bucks offseason, thinking
about a future outside of Milwaukee. Oh no, So would
you translate?
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Please?
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Will you translate the cryptic reporting on the Greek freak
for the regular guy as his name is back in
the echo chamber of sports chatter, So yes, I will
translate to you. Imagine if you will, Jannis Adentacumbo wearing
one of those cool hats that has the stripes on
them from Southern Pacific Railroad. And you see Giannis is
(08:28):
wearing that cab because he is the engineer of the locomotive,
the steam engine locomotive old school that is going round
the mountain, going round the mountain right now, and he
will drive the content train for a good amount of
the summer, will he or.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Will he not? Request a trade? Developing now?
Speaker 2 (08:53):
A lot of observing the breathless reporting, minute by minute
reporting says a lot of observing the Greek Freak is doing,
which is code for Yannis is already already out there.
He's concerned, he's confused, he's bewildered, he's not bemused, and
he's googling how to leave Milwaukee? How do I get
(09:15):
out of Milwaukee? So, yeah, he's under an extension. So
I mentioned this in previous episodes, and one of our
listeners in Milwaukee emailed me and a very kind gentleman,
nice Midwestern.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Hospitality, and then he like MF me and all that
and said, we just not an extension.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
He's not going anywhere, Okay, So let me address that
since the gentleman with that nice mid Western hospitality MF
ME and used every other curse word you can mention
clearly inebriated. So extensions in the modern NBA think of
them like pre nuptial agreements. They are meant to be
(09:53):
broken when the ring does not come. So, you know,
the Bucks, if they whiff this summer swing, swing a whiff,
do not be shocked.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
Do not be shocked.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
If Giannis presses that red button and you know, the
one that activates the escape patch and right into the
transfer portal, into the portal, you go, and you follow
all the buzzwords I've noticed in recent years, the modern
buzzword for star player that's disgruntled, that wants to leave
(10:27):
but doesn't want to see him.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Like the bad guy.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
They say, it's all about the fit, like you're going
into a haberdasherie and you're trying on a pair of
pants or a jacket or something like that. It's all
about the fit and the timeline has to match up.
They use that term. That's a buzz term. They use
a lot and I need to see the vision, and
I need to see the vision. It's all It's like
you're at an art museum or something you the love.
(10:52):
So if Giannis does decide to leave, this will all
be negotiated on on the side, right on the side.
The usual suspects, the Knicks, the Nets because it's the
New York market, the Warriors, the Heat, the Spurs, the
usual suspects.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Will all be in place.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
So file that one away now, final thought. So the
NBA Draft is now done. Nobody really paid attention to
the second round, but the first round got a fair
amount of attention, and there was a common theme that
was shared by multiple people, including Windy, not Wendy's although
he likes it. Windy who reported that a number of
(11:28):
executives and agents were messaging him to tell jokes about
the Nets, that the Nets were so incompetent that other
executives took time out of the draft to just goof
on how stupid the picks were for the Nets. All right,
So the draft they drafted like the United Nations. There,
(11:52):
they got a guy from Israel, guy from France, the US.
They even went outside the United Nations and added Russia.
So should Brooklyn fans be worried? All three of them?
Should the three Brooklyn fans be worried that NBA people
were going out of the way to laugh and make
fun of the Nets draft? So I am going to go,
(12:14):
I got two letters for you. I've got N and
then I add an O and my answers no, My
answer is no, Here's why I who cares? Who's laughing?
One thing I've learned from paying attention to these stupid
drafts over the years is that nobody knows anything right.
(12:34):
And it's like Open Mike Night at Haha's Comedy Club
because the Nets drafted players that weren't supposed to be picked.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
There.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
It's the NBA draft, right, And if you're a Nets.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Fan, all three of you. You shouldn't be worried about
the chuckles. You shouldn't be worried about it.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Here's why it is.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
The chaos theory of the world, the chaos theory of
the universe in particular, is this again.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Nobody knows anything. Nobody knows anything.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
And even when you think you've drafted the right player,
he could turn out to be Kwame Brown throwing cakes
and having that as his claim, the famer Andrew Bogan,
who is just a role player, right, not anything special,
or the host of other top picks that turned out
to be jags, just a guy. So you know, know,
the industrial complex of the NBA draft is throwing darts blindfolded.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
That's what it is. You throw darts blindfolded. That's it.
That's all.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
And also it's not who's laughing first, it's who ends
up laughing last. I heard that somewhere along the way.
That's most important. But the Nets have nothing. There's not
a single name brand player on the Brooklyn Nets. They
are flotsam and jetsam. That is a faceless franchise. So
the good news is there's no sacred cows. You can't
(13:57):
trade the most popular player.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
On the nets.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
They don't have one. No one's popular, so they've got
nothing to lose, and so they're just experimenting. They're going
into the laboratory and they're combining different chemicals and see
if anything explodes.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
And that's what they're doing. It is the Ben Mahler Show.

Speaker 2 (16:56):
And we'd also like to alert all the affiliates downline
coming up later on tonight off air recording session New Copy,
new copy for the month of July.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Which starts next week.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
There are let's see one, two, three, three spots that
will be recorded.
Speaker 1 (17:13):

Speaker 2 (17:18):
And this is I like to like kind of cuddle
with it and I hold it, I read it, you know,
and I look at it.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Do you memorize it?
Speaker 2 (17:25):
Yeah, it's really just my favorite part is when we
record the commercials.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Now, last time we recorded the commercials, I was.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
I had an illness and that made it even more
fun that I was coughing giant things of like, you know,
giant the Lugi's up and it was it was really nice.

It was fun, a lot of a lot of mucous.
Speaker 5 (17:44):
It's gonna be different this time.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
This will be good.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
This will be a smooth, smooth, And it does look
like this particular advertiser did not try to. Usually, when
they give you a radio copy, it's two minutes of
content for a sixty second commercial, or if if it's
a thirty second spot, it's sixty seconds of content for
thirty seconds. But it does appear this is the proper amount.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
You must read with pace and intensity.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Yeah, and so I remember back in my childhood there
was an infomercial. This guy was like a bald guy
with a mustache and he did speed reading. And I
learned how to from the infomercial how to readfest So

Speaker 7 (22:36):
I can care less about video games, Ben, I'm from
a different era all the.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
Game What were your games? Erme?
Speaker 2 (22:43):
When you were a kid, you had to play games
at some point. Everyone's a kid. You're you're all grown
up in a grumpy man now. But as a kid,
right when you were a little kid, well, you went
to what did you do?
Speaker 1 (22:52):
You play like pinball machines? What did you do?
Speaker 7 (22:55):
No, we played football on the streets on concrete man,
and then people will call a police on us to
run us out of the streets because we were they
were afraid of football. During football round in the streets
were hit and damastair car. So that was one of
my fondest memories were growing up is like the police
would come battling down the streets like we were criminals,
(23:15):
and all we were doing was playing football in the
middle of Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
You know, yeah, well let's get some that's just some
other other people were complaining. And we used to play.
When I was a kid, we would play with the
neighborhood kids. We played baseball, but our parents forced us
to use the tennis ball because they were worried we
were going to break a window. And then one of
the neighborhood kids actually did break a window with a
tennis ball, which is hard to do, but managed to
(23:38):
do it.
Speaker 7 (23:38):
So yeah, hey, t tell Austin if he's tied of
taking the link of money, since he turned that down,
he can always go across town to the cliff joint
because I hit that guy Bomber. He's pretty stating rich, you.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Know, that's right. He's got a lot of cash there.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
Yeah, the money he.
Speaker 7 (23:57):
Can afford him, or he could do like old Corn Caruzo,
you can go to the Olahoma's in here and be
a champions. Yet no, I got a.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
Real ring, like that's right.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
Take that Rick, oh and all you a hole laker
historians take that the guy he and.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
That how great was that, Jerome.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
He he let the quiet part out and then he
got a lot of crap for it, so he had
to pretend like he didn't say that.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
He said he was drunk.
Speaker 7 (24:24):
Because as comedy.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
That was a great comment.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
My favorite comment from the Thunder winning the championship was
that comment. So I loved it. It was great, It
was honest, it was raw. It wasn't that media filtered
bull crap. That's what every real basketball fan knows. That
is a counterfeit ring. The Lakers are cursed. They haven't
won since Kobe Bryant was playing. That doesn't count. That's
a fact.
Speaker 7 (24:46):
Hey, they got plenty of trophies. How many how many
you clip? Joint? Goddamn.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
I don't care about trophies. Trophies collect dust. I'm not
worried about trophies. And this ain't the This ain't the
history channel, Jerome. We're not doing the history channel here.
Speaker 7 (24:59):
Okay, doesn't care about when for the competition?
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Yeah, I'm in it, man, I'm a competitor's room.

no quarter hours off.
Speaker 7 (25:16):
Yeah right, Hey, by the way, dam what happened Brandy quick?
You know those two guys that come on after you.
Speaker 1 (25:22):

Speaker 2 (25:23):
I think he had a I think he had a baby.
I guess he's got he's trying to recover from having
the baby.
Speaker 7 (25:27):
I don't know his wife had a baby. He had
a baby's breaking story.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
I don't know.

make the hot dogs. You know, a lot of these
guys that play basketball don't really care if they win.

lot of them don't care. And it's same thing in
baseball and football. It's a job. They're making a lot
of money. You'd like to think everyone wants to win,
a lot of them don't.

that when you like me, nobody wants to be your
friend because you don't have any money. But when you're rich,
everybody's your paying, everybody loves you, got all kinds of
women and all that. Yes, yes, that's so great about
being rich.

telepropter and I got sent this clip by like a
bunch of people at that time. This is probably thirty
years ago. Lauren Sanchez on television. She read off the prompter.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our number three, our number three on this Friday,
with lame jokes. Later in the hour, the big news
in basketball a rejection of a ninety million dollar contract offer.
Does Austin Reeves turning down the extension mean his days
with the Lakers are numbered? Also, Yannis trade rumors popping
(00:26):
up again. Would you translate the cryptic report on the
Greek freak for the regular guy?
Speaker 1 (00:32):
We'll do that.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
And should Brooklyn fans be worried the NBA people were
going out of their way to make fun of the
Nets draft picks in the first round, We'll talk about
that as well. Right now, settle in, it's our number three.
Austin is Boston or Boston?
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Welcome?
Speaker 2 (00:52):
In the beginning of another hour of the Ben Malors Show.
We are in the air mrewear sound waves, soul mates,
as we are on a chicken run, a late night
chicken run. Mack Mack mack, chicken coast to coast, border
(01:13):
to motor and beyond on the mast and immeasurably powerful
microphones of fs are emmating live from the dressing. No no, no,
not the salad dressing, the window dressing from the Fox
Sports Radio studios, as approved by Alameedloo from that little
(01:34):
dive bar in Oakland. This portion of the Ben Mather
Show made possible by tire Rack. For over forty years,
Tyraq has been helping customers find the right tires for how,
what and where they drive, ship fast and free back
by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like
mobile tire installation tire raq dot com the way tire
(01:58):
buying should be, so our lead this hour is from
pro Bouncy Ball the second round of the Draft. Cannot
wait to see how few people watched the second round
of the draft. I mean, I don't know anyone that
checked it out. I didn't watch it, and normally I'm
always looking for stuff to get content out of and isa, no,
I had no interest in the second round.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
I have no interest.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Passed like the fifth pick of the first round of
the draft, and according to the ratings, neither did you
or you or you as very few people tuned in
after the first two picks of the draft. But our
lead is from the NBA. They held the second round
and that's not much of a talker. There is some
compelling sports talk radio content from La La Land as
(02:45):
the Lakers continue to have a disastrous offseason, the very rocky,
very rocky, if you've not heard the latest on this.
In a huge embarrassment to the once proud Laker franchise
guard Austin Reeves, a scrub nobody who's become somebody with
the Lakers, turning down a four year, ninety million dollar extension,
(03:10):
rejecting the Lakers says, I don't want your money, i
don't need your money. I'm not going to take your money,
opting instead to test the free agent market after the
upcoming season. Now, Reeves does have one more year remaining
on his contract and a player option which he's clearly
not going to accept, and then he is free to
(03:32):
roam around, roam around the wacky wacky world of pro
bouncy ball. So let us discuss the question, does Austin
Reeves turning down a massive extension does this mean his
days with the Lakers are numbered?
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Plot thickens.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
So I've got Taylor Swift, Southern Pacific Railroad, and dart throwing,
and we will combine all of these things together and
going to take a nice bath is what we're going
to take. So, first of all, to answer the question Reeves,
Austin Reeves turning down this ninety million dollar extension doesn't
(04:10):
mean his days with the Lakers are number absolutely, absolutely,
one hundred percent. Now, you can kid yourself and say
that's not the case, but the real ones know, the
real ones know here that Reeves is betting on himself. Now,
he's betting on himself. And while certainly cash is king,
every man, woman and child knows that cash is king
(04:31):
in this case, it's not only about the money, right
thee the low information fan will say, oh, it's just
about the money. That Reeves declined the deal because he'll
be eligible for a two hundred forty seven million dollar
contract the max deal with the Lakers over four years,
or a five year deal for two forty seven Then
if he doesn't stay with the Lakers, he can leave
(04:53):
and go somewhere else and get a one hundred and
eighty three million So either way, he's going to get
a lot more money than he would have gotten if
he had signed the extension. However, there's a bigger underlying condition. Now,
don't shoot the messenger here, but there's an issue the
Lakers cannot address. They cannot pacify Austin Reeves.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
No matter what they do.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
And as William Shakespeare in Hamlet said, to be or
not to be a headliner, And that's the issue here.
Are you going to be an above the marquee player?
Are you going to be a player that moves the needle?
Are those things that are important to you?
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Are they?
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Those are questions that Austin Reeves is going to have
to answer. Do you want to be the straw that
stirs the drink or just an ice cube that melts
in the drink. And if Austin Reeves chooses to stay
with that ugly ass Laker uniform, he will never be
the man, He'll never be above the marquee, He'll never
(05:58):
be that player. He will be pigeonholed to supporting actor.
That's it right. He'll have a seat at the kitty table,
not the cronups table, the kitty table there. And last
year they had Lebron and Anthony Davis, and now coming
up this year it's going to be Lebron and Luca
and then the third wheel, the tersary contributor would be
(06:22):
Austin Reeves. So if Austin Reeves hopes to be Taylor
Swift and get out there and start crooning. He's got
to leave. He's got to go somewhere else. And you
can't be the man unless you leave the man behind.
And he can stay with the Lakers and be a
backup singer if you want to do that. You know
(06:43):
who wants to do that. Maybe he does. Otherwise, got
to get out of there. You're not ever going to
be the ribbi on the menu. You are going to
be the Salisbury steak with lumpy mashed potatoes. That is
what you're going to be if you stay there. And
let's also not forget that Austin Reeves Whift absolutely vanished,
(07:04):
which I loved every misshot and every awkward moment in
the playoffs against the Minnesota basketball team. So he's been
on himself. I would be surprised if he stays with
the Lakers. I think he's gotta have his eyes wandering here.
And why would you want to stay with the Lakers anyway,
Go make your own mark and don't be a second
wheel or third wheel rather as he is with the
(07:26):
Lakers now. Secondly, speaking of gossip in pro bouncy, but
we go to Milwaukee, where the cheese curds are fresh
and the basketball is getting stale.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
So some chatter here, some rumors.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
If you thought the ink was dry on the Yannis
Adentakombo saga, you are a loser.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Think again.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
So we're now hearing that Yannis is still evaluating O
m G. He's still evaluating the Milwaukee Bucks offseason, thinking
about a future outside of Milwaukee. Oh no, So would
you translate?
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Please?
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Will you translate the cryptic reporting on the Greek freak
for the regular guy as his name is back in
the echo chamber of sports chatter, So yes, I will
translate to you. Imagine if you will, Jannis Adentacumbo wearing
one of those cool hats that has the stripes on
them from Southern Pacific Railroad. And you see Giannis is
(08:28):
wearing that cab because he is the engineer of the locomotive,
the steam engine locomotive old school that is going round
the mountain, going round the mountain right now, and he
will drive the content train for a good amount of
the summer, will he or.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Will he not? Request a trade? Developing now?
Speaker 2 (08:53):
A lot of observing the breathless reporting, minute by minute
reporting says a lot of observing the Greek Freak is doing,
which is code for Yannis is already already out there.
He's concerned, he's confused, he's bewildered, he's not bemused, and
he's googling how to leave Milwaukee? How do I get
(09:15):
out of Milwaukee? So, yeah, he's under an extension. So
I mentioned this in previous episodes, and one of our
listeners in Milwaukee emailed me and a very kind gentleman,
nice Midwestern.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Hospitality, and then he like MF me and all that
and said, we just not an extension.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
He's not going anywhere, Okay, So let me address that
since the gentleman with that nice mid Western hospitality MF
ME and used every other curse word you can mention
clearly inebriated. So extensions in the modern NBA think of
them like pre nuptial agreements. They are meant to be
(09:53):
broken when the ring does not come. So, you know,
the Bucks, if they whiff this summer swing, swing a whiff,
do not be shocked.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
Do not be shocked.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
If Giannis presses that red button and you know, the
one that activates the escape patch and right into the
transfer portal, into the portal, you go, and you follow
all the buzzwords I've noticed in recent years, the modern
buzzword for star player that's disgruntled, that wants to leave
(10:27):
but doesn't want to see him.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Like the bad guy.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
They say, it's all about the fit, like you're going
into a haberdasherie and you're trying on a pair of
pants or a jacket or something like that. It's all
about the fit and the timeline has to match up.
They use that term. That's a buzz term. They use
a lot and I need to see the vision, and
I need to see the vision. It's all It's like
you're at an art museum or something you the love.
(10:52):
So if Giannis does decide to leave, this will all
be negotiated on on the side, right on the side.
The usual suspects, the Knicks, the Nets because it's the
New York market, the Warriors, the Heat, the Spurs, the
usual suspects.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Will all be in place.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
So file that one away now, final thought. So the
NBA Draft is now done. Nobody really paid attention to
the second round, but the first round got a fair
amount of attention, and there was a common theme that
was shared by multiple people, including Windy, not Wendy's although
he likes it. Windy who reported that a number of
(11:28):
executives and agents were messaging him to tell jokes about
the Nets, that the Nets were so incompetent that other
executives took time out of the draft to just goof
on how stupid the picks were for the Nets. All right,
So the draft they drafted like the United Nations. There,
(11:52):
they got a guy from Israel, guy from France, the US.
They even went outside the United Nations and added Russia.
So should Brooklyn fans be worried? All three of them?
Should the three Brooklyn fans be worried that NBA people
were going out of the way to laugh and make
fun of the Nets draft? So I am going to go,
(12:14):
I got two letters for you. I've got N and
then I add an O and my answers no, My
answer is no, Here's why I who cares? Who's laughing?
One thing I've learned from paying attention to these stupid
drafts over the years is that nobody knows anything right.
(12:34):
And it's like Open Mike Night at Haha's Comedy Club
because the Nets drafted players that weren't supposed to be picked.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
There.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
It's the NBA draft, right, And if you're a Nets.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Fan, all three of you. You shouldn't be worried about
the chuckles. You shouldn't be worried about it.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Here's why it is.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
The chaos theory of the world, the chaos theory of
the universe in particular, is this again.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Nobody knows anything. Nobody knows anything.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
And even when you think you've drafted the right player,
he could turn out to be Kwame Brown throwing cakes
and having that as his claim, the famer Andrew Bogan,
who is just a role player, right, not anything special,
or the host of other top picks that turned out
to be jags, just a guy. So you know, know,
the industrial complex of the NBA draft is throwing darts blindfolded.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
That's what it is. You throw darts blindfolded. That's it.
That's all.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
And also it's not who's laughing first, it's who ends
up laughing last. I heard that somewhere along the way.
That's most important. But the Nets have nothing. There's not
a single name brand player on the Brooklyn Nets. They
are flotsam and jetsam. That is a faceless franchise. So
the good news is there's no sacred cows. You can't
(13:57):
trade the most popular player.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
On the nets.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
They don't have one. No one's popular, so they've got
nothing to lose, and so they're just experimenting. They're going
into the laboratory and they're combining different chemicals and see
if anything explodes.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
And that's what they're doing. It is the Ben Mahler Show.

Speaker 2 (16:56):
And we'd also like to alert all the affiliates downline
coming up later on tonight off air recording session New Copy,
new copy for the month of July.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Which starts next week.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
There are let's see one, two, three, three spots that
will be recorded.

Speaker 2 (17:25):
Yeah, it's really just my favorite part is when we
record the commercials.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Now, last time we recorded the commercials, I was.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
I had an illness and that made it even more
fun that I was coughing giant things of like, you know,
giant the Lugi's up and it was it was really nice.

It was fun, a lot of a lot of mucous.
Speaker 5 (17:44):
It's gonna be different this time.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
This will be good.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
This will be a smooth, smooth, And it does look
like this particular advertiser did not try to. Usually, when
they give you a radio copy, it's two minutes of
content for a sixty second commercial, or if if it's
a thirty second spot, it's sixty seconds of content for
thirty seconds. But it does appear this is the proper amount.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
You must read with pace and intensity.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Yeah, and so I remember back in my childhood there
was an infomercial. This guy was like a bald guy
with a mustache and he did speed reading. And I
learned how to from the infomercial how to readfest So

Game What were your games? Erme?
Speaker 2 (22:43):
When you were a kid, you had to play games
at some point. Everyone's a kid. You're you're all grown
up in a grumpy man now. But as a kid,
right when you were a little kid, well, you went
to what did you do?
Speaker 1 (22:52):
You play like pinball machines? What did you do?
Speaker 7 (22:55):
No, we played football on the streets on concrete man,
and then people will call a police on us to
run us out of the streets because we were they
were afraid of football. During football round in the streets
were hit and damastair car. So that was one of
my fondest memories were growing up is like the police
would come battling down the streets like we were criminals,
(23:15):
and all we were doing was playing football in the
middle of Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
You know, yeah, well let's get some that's just some
other other people were complaining. And we used to play.
When I was a kid, we would play with the
neighborhood kids. We played baseball, but our parents forced us
to use the tennis ball because they were worried we
were going to break a window. And then one of
the neighborhood kids actually did break a window with a
tennis ball, which is hard to do, but managed to
(23:38):
do it.
Speaker 7 (23:38):
So yeah, hey, t tell Austin if he's tied of

to pretend like he didn't say that.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
He said he was drunk.
Speaker 7 (24:24):
Because as comedy.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
That was a great comment.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
My favorite comment from the Thunder winning the championship was
that comment. So I loved it. It was great, It
was honest, it was raw. It wasn't that media filtered
bull crap. That's what every real basketball fan knows. That
is a counterfeit ring. The Lakers are cursed. They haven't
won since Kobe Bryant was playing. That doesn't count. That's
a fact.
Speaker 7 (24:46):
Hey, they got plenty of trophies. How many how many

a baby's breaking story.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
You call that show. I don't know what to tell you.
It's not my problem. I don't know what happened to him.

You're loyal to this show.
Speaker 7 (25:54):
Money is damn tell me me. Although that one guy,
he's got like two jumps, he's making a power of money.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
I don't know who's making a pile of money.
Speaker 7 (26:03):
That gottlieb gun What he said about me, He said,
I'm one of the reasons why it makes this cut
so bad because I got angry and I talked about
Dereck McQueen's congratulations, Derek, you're going to the New Orleans
Pelicans can't wait to start one in there.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
I don't know what you're sorry, So Gottlie rips you.
He took a shot at you.
Speaker 7 (26:26):
Yeah, yeah, because the guy walked. Well that's great and
it's no that's cheating because they hold Colorado State. But
he's going to the to the Pelotus. He ought to
have a lot of fun there. Him and old Angels.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Well, hey, listen, New Orleans is a destination people go
on vacation in. New Orleans is a good party town.
So go there, enjoy yourself, good food. From what I understand,
I've not spent time in New Orleans.
Speaker 7 (26:51):
But and went in basketball too, right where you know
where left times?
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Hey, hey, Jeroma as you to tell you how they
make the hot dogs. You know, a lot of these
guys that play basketball don't really care if they win.
They like to give the illusion they care, but a
lot of them don't care. And it's same thing in
baseball and football. It's a job. They're making a lot
of money. You'd like to think everyone wants to win,
a lot of them don't.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
And you can make a.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
Great living playing on a crap bag team and there's
no pressure because nobody expects.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
You to win. You're making a lot of money.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
You play your basketball, you don't have to worry about
going to the playoffs, so you get an extra month off.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
You paid the same money way to go.
Speaker 7 (27:25):
And you know what I love about it, man, is
that when you like me, nobody wants to be your
friend because you don't have any money. But when you're rich,
everybody's your paying, everybody loves you, got all kinds of
women and all that. Yes, yes, that's so great about
being rich.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
I guess I don't know. All right, I'm not I'm
not rich. Yeah, what a sob story to row My god,
your life's not that bad, all right? Stop stop playing
the victim card from the bottom of the deck. I
get out of here. Thank you. You're on here for
like ten minutes. Let's say hello to keg drinking Steve
in Conzauw's city.
Speaker 8 (28:03):
Ah Ben Mallon Legends nine or what nights the Wedding
of the Century is today?
Speaker 9 (28:12):
I'm looking at I'm looking at the pictures. Did you
see the pictures of Luca over the Slovenian League?
Speaker 8 (28:18):
Oh man, he's.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
Good Lucas at the Wedding of the Years. I didn't realize.
Speaker 9 (28:23):
Luca was it the Wedding of the Century.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
Wedding of the Century.
Speaker 9 (28:26):
Yeah, Amazon, Luca Lucas giving me feelings in my nether regions. Man,
he's going to be m v P in the NBA.
Speaker 1 (28:35):

The other so he's no good.
Speaker 9 (28:46):
He's eating right.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
You know that wedding though, that that wedding key drink, Steve.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
That that blows me away.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
Like the tabloid covers years ago, when I was a
radio stringer, Lauren Sanchez was a was a TV anchor
in Los Angeles, and she did she was the Lakers
like locker room reporter, and I actually had dinner with
her multiple times that we used to be called Staples Center.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
It blows my mind away.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
She's she's like married to the gonna be married of
the richest guy in the world.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
That is insane.
Speaker 9 (29:13):
She was like an access Hollywood reporter of the mall.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Well yeah, she well, she was like doing sports and
she there were so I don't know, I don't want
to shy ripper. I'll get she didn't care who I
am anymore. But she was so bad at doing sports television.
There were people, well, the most famous blooper that Lauren
Sanchez had, she was doing studio stuff at Fox and
she was just a teleprompter person, just read off the
(29:39):
telepropter and I got sent this clip by like a
bunch of people at that time. This is probably thirty
years ago. Lauren Sanchez on television. She read off the prompter.
Jimmy Connors was one of the top tennis players of
his e er a which is one of the all
time great bloopers. I think they've scrubbed that from the internet,
but I had. I used to have a copy of it.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
It was wonderful.
Speaker 9 (30:02):
I think. I think so far, Kendall Jenner and Leo's girl,
I'm looking at the photos of the wedding rehearsal. So
far Leo's girlfriend has won the wedding rehearsal and Kylie,
Kylie Jenner Man, did you see uh? Stefan Diggs has
rented out rented out a mansion for Cardi b over
(30:22):
in Paris.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Doesn't wait, doesn't Cardi b have more money than him?
Wouldn't she shouldn't she be the one to rent out.
She's the she's got to have more money than stuff?
Speaker 5 (30:31):
Did it more romantic?
