anchor desk w keep us updated throughout the program.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
He is not new.
Speaker 8 (08:03):
I actually got let in by accidents seventeen years ago
and nobody's noticed yet.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Hey, there you go with it. Sometimes.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
That's why he was like a mouse who ran under
the door when it was open. Yes, you would be.
I would be on a desk if there was a
mouse in here. I'm looking around to see okay. And
of course Elijah is our social media Gurulekay he's here.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
You see him?
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Yes, all right, Uh, let's go here and we have
Bob Myers was on the Rich Paul Max Kellerman podcast.
Speaker 7 (08:37):
Yeah, so on the Game Over podcast. Is actually what
it should be. Show over, Go ahead, easy, Rob, Rob caution.
Bob Myers the former general manager of the Golden State Warriors.
He was the GM for them during their dynasty year.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
Kicked out, go ahead. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (08:53):
Well, now he's the president of the Philadelphia seventy six ers,
and he went on the Game Over podcast with Rich
Paul and Max Keller and to pitch Lebron James on
the idea of playing for the seventy six ers. Here's
how it sounded.
Speaker 9 (09:04):
If he was here, I'd say, I honestly believe this
is your best chance to win. You have to decide
all the other things that are equally important because it's
his life, right, I don't he gets he has to play.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
He has to.
Speaker 9 (09:19):
Face the scrutiny of his decision that will have to
People will say you should have done this or should.
Speaker 10 (09:23):
Have done that, and take them They'll criticize him for whatever,
which is his life.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
So he's been through all that.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
What I would just say is, if it's.
Speaker 10 (09:32):
About winning and that let's talk about this team because
you can win here in Philadelphia if you want to
talk about other stuff, about what's this guy like, what's that?
And by the way, he knows players, a lot of
them better than I do their games. This is the
guy that probably watches more basketball than anybody understands. He's
not just playing and that he's probably watching the game
(09:54):
in February that nobody's watching.
Speaker 9 (09:57):
So he knows not as he know the guys, he
knows how they play.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
It's kind of kind of unprecedented.
Speaker 7 (10:03):
I don't know if I've ever heard the official from
a team podcast just to pitch a free agent?
Speaker 3 (10:07):
How about lame? How about lame?
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Bob Myers ridiculous. It's as lame as it gets. If
you want to do that, pitch it behind closed doors
to Rich Paul or Lebron James going on a podcast
doing that, Man, where's the professionalism?
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Seriously?
Speaker 1 (10:25):
It just comes off as so lame and quirky and dumb.
And you don't need to do that, right, that's not
what you do. You're out here trying to entertain people
about Lebron and making it public. That should be something
that's between you and a potential client. You disagree with that,
It just seems it seems bad to me, and I
(10:49):
can understand. There's only one real place for him to go.
Philadelphia is not granted some automatic that they're gonna win
a championship.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
Lebron wants to go on and be what wheel on
this team?
Speaker 1 (11:01):
If you just went out and got Jalen Brown, right,
and you got Embiid and Maxi.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
Yet Lebron's coming to do once? Whose plays? Is he
going to be the number one or number two option?
I don't see how he could be number one or two.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Did somebody on that damn podcast push back and say,
why would Lebron go there?
Speaker 3 (11:21):
There are three guys who are in front of them.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
That's what Lebron wants to finish out as being a
fourth option on some team.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
It doesn't even make sense.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
But of course nobody pushed back, because that's not what
they do on these terrible athletic driven podcasts. They don't
push back to say and Bob, why are you doing
this publicly? Why would you do this? Does this and
maybe hurt the idea? Why would you do this publicly?
Shouldn't this be done in private? I've been in the
sports business for forty years.
Speaker 5 (11:52):
I've never seen this before, not in this way like
you might have seen a tongue in cheek like oh
you know, hey, you got because like sometimes you you're timing,
is you happen to be on something when the big
thing is like so, hey, if Lebron wants to talk, hey, hey,
something like this, they'll go listen.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Tell you what I know.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
If he wants with the best cheese steak in the world,
come to Philly, I know where to go. You know
you're joking laugh him making a pitch. And by the way,
the pitch was terrible. Uh if he was a sales job,
it wasn't great.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
Max.
Speaker 5 (12:22):
If you listen to the full length, Max's pitch was
better uh than Bob's. But I think it's like this
is where it gets weird. And we had this conversation
before Rich Paul not just doing a pot as a guest.
That's different, right, because he could do a business pod.
He could do you know about so many different layers. Hey,
I was just a guy hustling in the streets met Lebron.
We build a partnership. Hey, I'm you know, here's how
(12:45):
you get into the business. Of being a lawyer and
an agent. There's a million different ways where he would
be a guest. Rich Paul doing podcasts regularly, like this
is my pod and it's not about movies, it's not
about my favorite foods, it's not about dad podcasts, podcasts
about sports. It is really strange, Rob, because to your point,
it puts people in weird positions. Let's say Bob Myers
(13:06):
was already on the books. You know, they booking out guests.
I don't have to do that, though I could say
I get that. What I'm saying now it gets weird
because I'm on with you, who are his agents.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Of course we're gonna talk about it.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
And then am I just talking to the general public
or am I really making a pitch not to I'm
making a pitch to you, Rich. So it just gets
weird with Rich Paul doing the pod and having these conversations.
And he's been so he hasn't shied away. Normally you
would say, hey, look, I gotta stay away from that.
You know, I don't want to conflict adventures. He's been
he's been working for Lebron that conflict adventures, and that's.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
What I'm saying. So it's strange him on the pod.
Speaker 5 (13:43):
Clearly, I'm not gonna say anything to hurt my client,
my biggest one in Lebron. So I'm always in favor
of Leabron. He can't just say, oh, we're just chiing
about Lebron. Everything you take is information. So if you're
Bob Myers, I know you're like this ain't no regular
just being on with Robin Calvin making a funny pitch,
having a good time. I'm literally talking to the guy
who it's going to be part of possession making, whether
it's money, whether it's helping Lebron, you know, decide on this,
(14:05):
but uh, as far as the team in itself. So
sticking to that, because one of the things Max talked
about was, you know what Philadelphia would mean as far
as it's Lebron hasn't played and the East Coast like this.
You obviously played on Miami, but it's not East Coast,
not Philly, it's not Boston, it's not New York. He
was saying, So you haven't done that thing and how
big that would be.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
Yeah, you could go.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
Win in Minnesota or Denver one of those other places,
but how huge that would be if you won in Philadelphia,
So I do think that's a thing winning there because
Cleveland will they now have one because of him. In
Miami is one because of him, and then even themselves
before him. So winning something in Philly would be huge.
I will admit that, like that Rabbit fan base, you
know that.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
I don't think being a part of that group makes
it that special.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
That's the difference. I just but what win? Don't you do?
Speaker 4 (14:53):
I get your get it saying, I just don't think
that that's where is there?
Speaker 5 (14:57):
Not?
Speaker 3 (14:57):
Where is that not the case now in the modern
NBA meaning no, no, no, When.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
When Luca came, if Luca and Lebron teamed up and won,
it would have been like, wow, he got they got
him Luca and they were able to win. Like like
like now you're you're cutting the pie. You're Lebron feels
like an add on Lebron feels like you're adding a
pepperoni to the pizza. Or you know what I mean,
you already have the pizza. You already have the cheese steak.
He's the he's the cheese whiz. Here's what I'm saying,
(15:23):
and here's where I get your logic. But here's where
what ends up happening when it becomes playoff and Be's
gonna be hobbled.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
No, no, no, But I'm saying this is what happens,
right if.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Jalen Brown is the MVP of the thing, Lebron, I'm
just saying, I'll get you that you he's not gonna
get full credit.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
That's what that could have been, Luca. That could have
been a d in twenty twenty. So like I'm not
saying he's not.
Speaker 5 (15:46):
I guess what I'm saying is a forty two year
old likely is not going to get full credit because
it's gonna take a full ensemble. So but what happens
is he's gonna be right if they assume they had won,
He'll be right there. It'll be him or Jaylen Brown
for MVP. If his Jaylen Brown, Lebron would have played
a massive part, so he would have a massive slice
of the pie of why they want.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
What about Maxie and what about embiid I'm just.
Speaker 5 (16:08):
All guys will play a role. But I'm saying, like
he's forty two, where is he gonna go where he was?
Singularly gonna be him and they're gonna win.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
But because if he goes to Cleveland and him and Donovan,
it'll be they have way better Evan, way better shot
that Lebron coming home and winning a championship with Donovan
would be the story.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
Don't give me that. Give me that an a far Fesch.
Speaker 5 (16:30):
He couldn't win an in Philly win the MVP because
of the way he plays, in his efficiency, that could
easily happen.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
He could average twenty three, ten and ten. That's not
your your your viewer, Lebron is way different. I'm just
telling you what we've seen. I've seen.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
I've seen him play half the court. I've seen him
as plus minus, saying Jordan plus minus when he's out there.
Just not that you act like it's twenty ten.
Speaker 5 (16:56):
No, I'm saying, if they were to make it to
the finals, Lebron would be a man. That the reason
why they wouldn't. That's all I'm saying. I'm not sure
that I am see I am. I haven't seen anything
that shows me that if if they're just got Jalen,
I'm saying, you.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
Just got Jalen Brown.
Speaker 5 (17:11):
I'm agreeing that Jalen Brown would why wouldn't it be
Jordan Pippen, But why wouldn't it be Why wouldn't be
Why wouldn't it be Jalen Brown and Maxi or Jalen
Brown and then Bead finally stays healthy for the whole postseason.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Why wouldn't it be those two?
Speaker 5 (17:27):
Because because the way in which if he's on your team, No,
if embiad is handy, I'm asking.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
The way in which he plays.
Speaker 5 (17:35):
He's going to average twenty three State in eight and
that you're going to look up and he controls the ball,
he makes the best decisions passball, and you're gonna look
up and he's gonna have his hamperage. And it's been
that way for twenty twenty four seasons.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
I disagree with so many players on that team.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
All right, eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox, We
need to hear from you eight seven seven nine nine
six sixty three sixty nine. First of all, how lame
was that pitch by and the pitch to go to Philadelphia?
You buying it? Is that where you go? If Lebron
goes to Philadelphi, he's getting all the credit for winning
a title?
Speaker 3 (18:08):
Or would he go elsewhere?

for the Brewers?
Speaker 1 (20:39):
All right, we're not talking about that. We got to
call another way the month. I'm sorry about that though.
Give me your phone number so you can text you.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
No, no, no, we're not doing that. Eight seven seven, Hey,
my man, been waiting.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
I was like, man, he back now, Oh right, I
mean James in Virginia.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
You are odd couple of fox spurs to.
Speaker 6 (20:58):
You if they were taking my call, gentlemen, happy wins?
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Yes, how are you?
Speaker 6 (21:06):
Hey? Can I get break them chains coming in one time?
That would be fantastic, no doubt.
Speaker 5 (21:12):
Get that, Tasha Cobb, get that for us?
Speaker 3 (21:17):
All right?
Speaker 6 (21:18):
Man? For me, man, that was that was a want
want by my man myers. Man. But I think Lebron
to me, when I look at the league, I like
Denver Man. I think you match him up with Yo,
Kic and Murray and Bron and Gordon, and he let
him play a point forward. I'm telling you right now, man,
I feel like that is his best opportunity to win
(21:40):
a championship. It seems from two hours away from LA.
It's a short flight, you know what I mean. He
could play his son plays in Arizona. Like, I think
that is a big time win for him.
Speaker 5 (21:53):
On paper, it makes sense, but for some reason they've
narrowed it down. Yeah, they said that is the three
the list Miami, Cleveland.
Speaker 4 (22:02):
And who am I in Miami? Miami, Cleveland and Philly.
Speaker 5 (22:06):
So those are the thanks chapter three now, so on paper,
I get it all right?
Speaker 1 (22:10):
One more before we got Harrison Ford from uh uh.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
Harrison Ford was Harrison Sanford. We're doing it big. I
love network. Sorry about that.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
No, misuspecger Harrison Sandford. That's like, let now we went
Harrison Ford.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
To that Harrison Sanford. All right, man, let's go to
Drew in New Jersey. You're in the odd couple of
Fox Sports Radio. What's up, Drew?
Speaker 12 (22:34):
Is this? It's angry Drew. We gotta get that correct.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
No, we're not Drew Drew and I fell off. He's
angry Drew. No, I don't even when he calls. He's
just angry at me every single time. So we we
I don't.
Speaker 12 (22:47):
Know on your side though, on your side, you ain't.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
Got to be on the side. And now don't do that,
Drew ahead. I am all right, go ahead.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
I'm with you, and you're right.
Speaker 12 (22:55):
So this is the one thing I don't get right
because I heard someone say Denver would make a championship.
What's the biggest difference between like they're just close your eyes.
You have Luka Doncic, you have Austin Reeves, you still
didn't win a championship. This is the thing I don't
like what we do, especially with Lebron. We always say, oh,
(23:16):
this isn't good, let's throw it out, let's do something else.
Like to me, I don't think it's a talent thing.
Do I think they would have won a championship? No,
But to say that that there there's a significant talent gap,
that's that's a lie. I just don't like this manufacturing
a championship and then constantly moving the goal posts. Oh well, no,
we need this, we.
Speaker 3 (23:36):
Need right now.
Speaker 12 (23:37):
You no longer need a big three to win a championship.
We need role players like the Knicks. When you have
you have Luka Doncics, who's a top three player. You
have Austin Reeves who's.
Speaker 5 (23:50):
Don't get carried away now, Drew shostseason, you know that
big three.
Speaker 12 (23:56):
But this is a thing. Why do you need a
perfect roster? I don't think okay See has a big three.
It's not a talent gap. But you could say, oh,
this picture is this. I don't think that that Lakers
team is worse than that Cleveland team. I don't think
that by adding Lebron they're going to be better than that.
That's you know, that's a better situation than what he
(24:17):
has with Lan.
Speaker 5 (24:18):
I get your point, Drew, just for time sake, definitely
catch your point. I don't I think that would be
the Lakers case. They would say, if Luca was healthy,
we would have had a shot. I think that's what
they would have said.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
But he never worried.
Speaker 5 (24:29):
I think Lebron felt like I was sick of taking
having to take the lesser ended things.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
I'm moving on, all right.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
We got Harrison Sanford, not Harrison Ford coming up here
in a moment right now.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
I low is gonna get you updated, all.
Speaker 8 (24:40):

Did you hear that? Yeah, get off plane? What a
terribly cheesy good great? All those nineties movies were terribly great.
Speaker 3 (26:24):
Did I do that?
Speaker 13 (26:25):
All right?
Speaker 3 (26:26):
Appreciate it?
Speaker 5 (26:27):
Join now by Harrison Sanford MSG Network co host of
The Green.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
My man, We've had drinks at nab J. We hang out.
This is my guy, right. I know I called you, Harrison,
call you Harrison. I'm old.
Speaker 5 (26:39):
He was lying to the people all of a sudden.
So now you gotta, yeah, you gotta hit us with
a good get off my plane.
Speaker 14 (26:43):
No.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
I just figured that he's so rich, Harrison. So I
just figured that. You know that he goes with Harrison
Ford like.
Speaker 6 (26:50):
I ain't hear from you?
Speaker 3 (26:53):
That's right? Oh shoot, you want to start rout?
Speaker 13 (26:56):
What up? Harrison?
Speaker 5 (26:56):
By the way, By the way, everybody been since you
since you left out here with ect.
Speaker 3 (27:00):
Uh. They're all here talking about thinking that man. Was
that your brother? Everybody always because haircut, both dar skinning
about the same build.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
Everybody made your brother leave. I'm like, Okay, first of all,
I see that's what you'll do. You see a couple
brothers who got the same complexion. Now we brothers.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
Unbelievable.
Speaker 12 (27:17):
I gotta I.
Speaker 6 (27:17):
Don't know what I gotta do.
Speaker 15 (27:18):
Maybe I gotta start going to alf Ro because I'm
starting to get to Chris Haynes. Wow, I'm starting to
get to Vincent Goodwill.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
All right, let's let's start with Lebron.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Bob Myers made the lame pitch to come to Philadelphia
on the podcast.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
What do you think he should? He will wind up?
Speaker 2 (27:39):
And why I think.
Speaker 3 (27:41):
He ends up in Cleveland.
Speaker 15 (27:42):
There is no other story that makes sense. Honestly, even
if you go to Philadelphia, guys, let's keep it real.
It's a great starting lineup and I'll see you have
a great utility starting to get the power forward position there.
But if you guys, just look at the history of
Joel EMBII in the Playoff twenty eighteen left orbital fracture
(28:03):
twenty nineteen, left knee tendonitis twenty twenty one, wal tear
in his right miniscus twenty twenty two, thorn thumb ligaments
twenty twenty three, knee spraying, miss games twenty twenty four
fell Paulson.
Speaker 5 (28:18):
But when man Harrison, at least he's consistent. I'm just here,
is definitely that you ain't lying about that. Come on now, okay,
so let me let me say so. I don't disagree.
We had our first segment we were talking about that.
I said, you know and be often hurt. So if
you're but if you're Bob Myers, isn't that why you
would say? That's why I got vj Ashcum. Obviously rookies
last year who this year played great. That's why I
(28:40):
have MAXI, That's why I would have Jaylen Brown. That's
why I would have Lebron, meaning we can anticipate him
being out and still be good.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
Of course, no, it makes.
Speaker 15 (28:49):
A much of sense for Bob Myers and to Philadelphia
seventy sixties can do it, particularly if your team has
had so much cap space dedicated to to Jylen Brown
and Tyree Maximum Joelebed If you can get Lebron on
a taxpayer, mid level or veterans minimum. Of course you
do it. It just doesn't make sense for Lebron. Imagine
this is his last year, his last year in an
(29:11):
illustrious career career, and you're going to rely on Joel Indeed,
that's how you want to go out. I cannot bet
on That's that's a fool that's a foolish mission. If
you are Lebron James, as great as they could be,
you have to rely on somebody who's consistently unreliable.
Speaker 6 (29:28):
Can't do it, won't do it.
Speaker 4 (29:30):
So the Cleveland obviously makes sense. It's going back home.
Let me switch gear.
Speaker 5 (29:34):
So we got a lot more Lebron to talk about,
So I want to switch to something else there. Let's
talk about what's happening in Toronto. Do you buy into
another guy who's often hurting, injured Kawhi Leonard? Is that
a big help for them? Is that all of a
sudden a contending team?
Speaker 15 (29:47):
Oh, that's a huge help. I mean, if you think
about it. Last year, essentially, brandon Ingram didn't brandon Ingram
basically didn't play in that series against the Toronto Raptors.
He played in Game one and two, but he was
also injured towards the end of the series did not
play in Game seven. Even if Kawhi is not at
his peak of powers, he's better than Brendon Ingram, who's
(30:08):
non existent, who did not play. So I think that's
gonna be great. I also think for guys, thinks Scotty Barnes,
who in his adolescence said his favorite player and the
one he wants to play with is Kawhi Leonard the
least of bounds that his game can take. Just being
around around Kawhi is going to be great for the
team as well. I don't know if they're championship contenders,
but he raises the floor and even if he's done
(30:31):
in three years, Scottie.
Speaker 6 (30:33):
Barnes, R J.
Speaker 15 (30:34):
Barrett, Cembkler, Murray Boyles are going to be so much
better for being around Kawhi during the next three seasons.
I'm all for it, and I think, obviously for the
Toronto fans, this is a This is a great victory
for them to have Kawhi back in the building. The
enthusiasm there is through the roofs.
Speaker 3 (30:55):
I want to.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
Thank you, but I do want to know your take
on the Lakers who have gone from showtime to slow time.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
That's what we call it. Here we go, Harrison, for
your for you. Uh, this is the song we made
up for them. We got it.
Speaker 1 (31:13):
It's time and it's a Crypto storing Luca. We're also
storing Austin Reeds and the pasty Lakers.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
Let's play some basketball. What do you make of the
moves of the Lakers.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
And it's time.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
It's snow time. It is snow time.
Speaker 15 (31:38):
Hey man, Well listen, I won't say this.
Speaker 6 (31:41):
It is going to be showtime.
Speaker 15 (31:43):
They are going to put on the show. And they're
gonna put on the show because they're not gonna play
any defense. Absolutely gonna be no defense plays at Crypto
dot com, at least from the guys in Purple and Gold.
Speaker 6 (31:55):
David.
Speaker 15 (31:56):
I understand wanting to move on from the Bronx usher
in the new era, but if you're gonna do that,
you gotta get some three and D players. I mean,
who on that roster do you trust to guard Devin Booker,
to guard Stephan Castle, to guard Sga, to guard Kevin Durant.
I just go to guard Anthony Edwards. I can go
through every single roster in the Western Conference. And I
(32:18):
can say the Lakers can't guard that man man and
the second man next to them. So yeah, they're gonna
have I said it will be a show. They're gonna
put up points, but they ain't guarding nobody, man, and
they can't win.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
If you don't guard nobody, you ain't lying.
Speaker 5 (32:31):
And the craziest part is we talked about this ares
and I'm looking at it as because they lost all
their the first team to lose all five of their
starters from a playoff matchup.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
I'm looking at I don't think the rosters better than
last year.
Speaker 5 (32:43):
Nope, Ruy was playing good, Marcus Smart was playing good,
Canard Lebron and they did not improve. But I mean,
obviously they're gonna look at it as a healthy, healthy
Luca and a healthy Austin Reeves can do damage.
Speaker 3 (32:55):
But man, you ain't lying. Ain't no defense.
Speaker 5 (32:56):
We thought it wasn't no defense last year, run I
said before in the lakershood.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
Last year, the Lakers are the only team that had
five statues outside the building and three on the court.
Speaker 3 (33:11):
So I'm just saying it was bad, all right, Harrison.
Speaker 5 (33:16):
We appreciate, no doubt, Harrison, Man, appreciate you man, we
check here with you next time.
Speaker 3 (33:21):
Appreciate you guys, thank you.
Speaker 5 (33:22):

an undeserved victory for Argentina, and once we go back

Speaker 4 (07:50):
Shay showed up yesterday to visit and he walked in

Speaker 1 (07:53):
Here, right, yeah, well nine people have left, so what
the heck? Isaac Lowancron is here. He he's at the
anchor desk w keep us updated throughout the program.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
He is not new.
Speaker 8 (08:03):
I actually got let in by accidents seventeen years ago
and nobody's noticed yet.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Hey, there you go with it. Sometimes.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
That's why he was like a mouse who ran under
the door when it was open. Yes, you would be.
I would be on a desk if there was a
mouse in here. I'm looking around to see okay. And
of course Elijah is our social media Gurulekay he's here.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
You see him?
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Yes, all right, Uh, let's go here and we have
Bob Myers was on the Rich Paul Max Kellerman podcast.
Speaker 7 (08:37):
Yeah, so on the Game Over podcast. Is actually what
it should be. Show over, Go ahead, easy, Rob, Rob caution.
Bob Myers the former general manager of the Golden State Warriors.
He was the GM for them during their dynasty year.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
Kicked out, go ahead. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (08:53):
Well, now he's the president of the Philadelphia seventy six ers,
and he went on the Game Over podcast with Rich
Paul and Max Keller and to pitch Lebron James on
the idea of playing for the seventy six ers. Here's
how it sounded.
Speaker 9 (09:04):
If he was here, I'd say, I honestly believe this
is your best chance to win. You have to decide
all the other things that are equally important because it's
his life, right, I don't he gets he has to play.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
He has to.
Speaker 9 (09:19):
Face the scrutiny of his decision that will have to
People will say you should have done this or should.
Speaker 10 (09:23):
Have done that, and take them They'll criticize him for whatever,
which is his life.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
So he's been through all that.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
What I would just say is, if it's.
Speaker 10 (09:32):
About winning and that let's talk about this team because
you can win here in Philadelphia if you want to
talk about other stuff, about what's this guy like, what's that?
And by the way, he knows players, a lot of
them better than I do their games. This is the
guy that probably watches more basketball than anybody understands. He's
not just playing and that he's probably watching the game
(09:54):
in February that nobody's watching.
Speaker 9 (09:57):
So he knows not as he know the guys, he
knows how they play.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
It's kind of kind of unprecedented.
Speaker 7 (10:03):
I don't know if I've ever heard the official from
a team podcast just to pitch a free agent?
Speaker 3 (10:07):
How about lame? How about lame?
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Bob Myers ridiculous. It's as lame as it gets. If
you want to do that, pitch it behind closed doors
to Rich Paul or Lebron James going on a podcast
doing that, Man, where's the professionalism?
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Seriously?
Speaker 1 (10:25):
It just comes off as so lame and quirky and dumb.
And you don't need to do that, right, that's not
what you do. You're out here trying to entertain people
about Lebron and making it public. That should be something
that's between you and a potential client. You disagree with that,
It just seems it seems bad to me, and I
(10:49):
can understand. There's only one real place for him to go.
Philadelphia is not granted some automatic that they're gonna win
a championship.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
Lebron wants to go on and be what wheel on
this team?
Speaker 1 (11:01):
If you just went out and got Jalen Brown, right,
and you got Embiid and Maxi.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
Yet Lebron's coming to do once? Whose plays? Is he
going to be the number one or number two option?
I don't see how he could be number one or two.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Did somebody on that damn podcast push back and say,
why would Lebron go there?
Speaker 3 (11:21):
There are three guys who are in front of them.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
That's what Lebron wants to finish out as being a
fourth option on some team.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
It doesn't even make sense.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
But of course nobody pushed back, because that's not what
they do on these terrible athletic driven podcasts. They don't
push back to say and Bob, why are you doing
this publicly? Why would you do this? Does this and
maybe hurt the idea? Why would you do this publicly?
Shouldn't this be done in private? I've been in the
sports business for forty years.
Speaker 5 (11:52):
I've never seen this before, not in this way like
you might have seen a tongue in cheek like oh
you know, hey, you got because like sometimes you you're timing,
is you happen to be on something when the big
thing is like so, hey, if Lebron wants to talk, hey, hey,
something like this, they'll go listen.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Tell you what I know.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
If he wants with the best cheese steak in the world,
come to Philly, I know where to go. You know
you're joking laugh him making a pitch. And by the way,
the pitch was terrible. Uh if he was a sales job,
it wasn't great.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
Max.
Speaker 5 (12:22):
If you listen to the full length, Max's pitch was
better uh than Bob's. But I think it's like this
is where it gets weird. And we had this conversation
before Rich Paul not just doing a pot as a guest.
That's different, right, because he could do a business pod.
He could do you know about so many different layers. Hey,
I was just a guy hustling in the streets met Lebron.
We build a partnership. Hey, I'm you know, here's how
(12:45):
you get into the business. Of being a lawyer and
an agent. There's a million different ways where he would
be a guest. Rich Paul doing podcasts regularly, like this
is my pod and it's not about movies, it's not
about my favorite foods, it's not about dad podcasts, podcasts
about sports. It is really strange, Rob, because to your point,
it puts people in weird positions. Let's say Bob Myers
(13:06):
was already on the books. You know, they booking out guests.
I don't have to do that, though I could say
I get that. What I'm saying now it gets weird
because I'm on with you, who are his agents.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Of course we're gonna talk about it.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
And then am I just talking to the general public
or am I really making a pitch not to I'm
making a pitch to you, Rich. So it just gets
weird with Rich Paul doing the pod and having these conversations.
And he's been so he hasn't shied away. Normally you
would say, hey, look, I gotta stay away from that.
You know, I don't want to conflict adventures. He's been
he's been working for Lebron that conflict adventures, and that's.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
What I'm saying. So it's strange him on the pod.
Speaker 5 (13:43):
Clearly, I'm not gonna say anything to hurt my client,
my biggest one in Lebron. So I'm always in favor
of Leabron. He can't just say, oh, we're just chiing
about Lebron. Everything you take is information. So if you're
Bob Myers, I know you're like this ain't no regular
just being on with Robin Calvin making a funny pitch,
having a good time. I'm literally talking to the guy
who it's going to be part of possession making, whether
it's money, whether it's helping Lebron, you know, decide on this,
(14:05):
but uh, as far as the team in itself. So
sticking to that, because one of the things Max talked
about was, you know what Philadelphia would mean as far
as it's Lebron hasn't played and the East Coast like this.
You obviously played on Miami, but it's not East Coast,
not Philly, it's not Boston, it's not New York. He
was saying, So you haven't done that thing and how
big that would be.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
Yeah, you could go.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
Win in Minnesota or Denver one of those other places,
but how huge that would be if you won in Philadelphia,
So I do think that's a thing winning there because
Cleveland will they now have one because of him. In
Miami is one because of him, and then even themselves
before him. So winning something in Philly would be huge.
I will admit that, like that Rabbit fan base, you
know that.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
I don't think being a part of that group makes
it that special.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
That's the difference. I just but what win? Don't you do?
Speaker 4 (14:53):
I get your get it saying, I just don't think
that that's where is there?
Speaker 5 (14:57):
Not?
Speaker 3 (14:57):
Where is that not the case now in the modern
NBA meaning no, no, no, When.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
When Luca came, if Luca and Lebron teamed up and won,
it would have been like, wow, he got they got
him Luca and they were able to win. Like like
like now you're you're cutting the pie. You're Lebron feels
like an add on Lebron feels like you're adding a
pepperoni to the pizza. Or you know what I mean,
you already have the pizza. You already have the cheese steak.
He's the he's the cheese whiz. Here's what I'm saying,
(15:23):
and here's where I get your logic. But here's where
what ends up happening when it becomes playoff and Be's
gonna be hobbled.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
No, no, no, But I'm saying this is what happens,
right if.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Jalen Brown is the MVP of the thing, Lebron, I'm
just saying, I'll get you that you he's not gonna
get full credit.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
That's what that could have been, Luca. That could have
been a d in twenty twenty. So like I'm not
saying he's not.
Speaker 5 (15:46):
I guess what I'm saying is a forty two year
old likely is not going to get full credit because
it's gonna take a full ensemble. So but what happens
is he's gonna be right if they assume they had won,
He'll be right there. It'll be him or Jaylen Brown
for MVP. If his Jaylen Brown, Lebron would have played
a massive part, so he would have a massive slice
of the pie of why they want.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
What about Maxie and what about embiid I'm just.
Speaker 5 (16:08):
All guys will play a role. But I'm saying, like
he's forty two, where is he gonna go where he was?
Singularly gonna be him and they're gonna win.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
But because if he goes to Cleveland and him and Donovan,
it'll be they have way better Evan, way better shot
that Lebron coming home and winning a championship with Donovan
would be the story.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
Don't give me that. Give me that an a far Fesch.
Speaker 5 (16:30):
He couldn't win an in Philly win the MVP because
of the way he plays, in his efficiency, that could
easily happen.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
He could average twenty three, ten and ten. That's not
your your your viewer, Lebron is way different. I'm just
telling you what we've seen. I've seen.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
I've seen him play half the court. I've seen him
as plus minus, saying Jordan plus minus when he's out there.
Just not that you act like it's twenty ten.
Speaker 5 (16:56):
No, I'm saying, if they were to make it to
the finals, Lebron would be a man. That the reason
why they wouldn't. That's all I'm saying. I'm not sure
that I am see I am. I haven't seen anything
that shows me that if if they're just got Jalen,
I'm saying, you.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
Just got Jalen Brown.
Speaker 5 (17:11):
I'm agreeing that Jalen Brown would why wouldn't it be
Jordan Pippen, But why wouldn't it be Why wouldn't be
Why wouldn't it be Jalen Brown and Maxi or Jalen
Brown and then Bead finally stays healthy for the whole postseason.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Why wouldn't it be those two?
Speaker 5 (17:27):
Because because the way in which if he's on your team, No,
if embiad is handy, I'm asking.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
The way in which he plays.
Speaker 5 (17:35):
He's going to average twenty three State in eight and
that you're going to look up and he controls the ball,
he makes the best decisions passball, and you're gonna look
up and he's gonna have his hamperage. And it's been
that way for twenty twenty four seasons.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
I disagree with so many players on that team.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
All right, eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox, We
need to hear from you eight seven seven nine nine
six sixty three sixty nine. First of all, how lame
was that pitch by and the pitch to go to Philadelphia?
You buying it? Is that where you go? If Lebron
goes to Philadelphi, he's getting all the credit for winning
a title?
Speaker 3 (18:08):
Or would he go elsewhere?

to me, when I look at the league, I like
Denver Man. I think you match him up with Yo,
Kic and Murray and Bron and Gordon, and he let
him play a point forward. I'm telling you right now, man,
I feel like that is his best opportunity to win
(21:40):
a championship. It seems from two hours away from LA.
It's a short flight, you know what I mean. He
could play his son plays in Arizona. Like, I think
that is a big time win for him.
Speaker 5 (21:53):
On paper, it makes sense, but for some reason they've
narrowed it down. Yeah, they said that is the three
the list Miami, Cleveland.
Speaker 4 (22:02):
And who am I in Miami? Miami, Cleveland and Philly.
Speaker 5 (22:06):
So those are the thanks chapter three now, so on paper,
I get it all right?
Speaker 1 (22:10):
One more before we got Harrison Ford from uh uh.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
Harrison Ford was Harrison Sanford. We're doing it big. I
love network. Sorry about that.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
No, misuspecger Harrison Sandford. That's like, let now we went
Harrison Ford.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
To that Harrison Sanford. All right, man, let's go to
Drew in New Jersey. You're in the odd couple of
Fox Sports Radio. What's up, Drew?
Speaker 12 (22:34):
Is this? It's angry Drew. We gotta get that correct.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
No, we're not Drew Drew and I fell off. He's
angry Drew. No, I don't even when he calls. He's
just angry at me every single time. So we we
I don't.
Speaker 12 (22:47):
Know on your side though, on your side, you ain't.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
Got to be on the side. And now don't do that,
Drew ahead. I am all right, go ahead.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
I'm with you, and you're right.
Speaker 12 (22:55):
So this is the one thing I don't get right
because I heard someone say Denver would make a championship.
What's the biggest difference between like they're just close your eyes.
You have Luka Doncic, you have Austin Reeves, you still
didn't win a championship. This is the thing I don't
like what we do, especially with Lebron. We always say, oh,
(23:16):
this isn't good, let's throw it out, let's do something else.
Like to me, I don't think it's a talent thing.
Do I think they would have won a championship? No,
But to say that that there there's a significant talent gap,
that's that's a lie. I just don't like this manufacturing
a championship and then constantly moving the goal posts. Oh well, no,
we need this, we.
Speaker 3 (23:36):
Need right now.
Speaker 12 (23:37):
You no longer need a big three to win a championship.
We need role players like the Knicks. When you have
you have Luka Doncics, who's a top three player. You
have Austin Reeves who's.
Speaker 5 (23:50):
Don't get carried away now, Drew shostseason, you know that
big three.
Speaker 12 (23:56):
But this is a thing. Why do you need a
perfect roster? I don't think okay See has a big three.
It's not a talent gap. But you could say, oh,
this picture is this. I don't think that that Lakers
team is worse than that Cleveland team. I don't think
that by adding Lebron they're going to be better than that.
That's you know, that's a better situation than what he
(24:17):
has with Lan.
Speaker 5 (24:18):
I get your point, Drew, just for time sake, definitely
catch your point. I don't I think that would be
the Lakers case. They would say, if Luca was healthy,
we would have had a shot. I think that's what
they would have said.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
But he never worried.
Speaker 5 (24:29):
I think Lebron felt like I was sick of taking
having to take the lesser ended things.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
I'm moving on, all right.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
We got Harrison Sanford, not Harrison Ford coming up here
in a moment right now.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
I low is gonna get you updated, all.
Speaker 8 (24:40):

Speaker 5 (26:16):
Did you hear that? Yeah, get off plane? What a
terribly cheesy good great? All those nineties movies were terribly great.
Speaker 3 (26:24):
Did I do that?
Speaker 13 (26:25):
All right?
Speaker 3 (26:26):
Appreciate it?
Speaker 5 (26:27):
Join now by Harrison Sanford MSG Network co host of
The Green.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
My man, We've had drinks at nab J. We hang out.
This is my guy, right. I know I called you, Harrison,
call you Harrison. I'm old.
Speaker 5 (26:39):
He was lying to the people all of a sudden.
So now you gotta, yeah, you gotta hit us with
a good get off my plane.
Speaker 14 (26:43):
No.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
I just figured that he's so rich, Harrison. So I
just figured that. You know that he goes with Harrison
Ford like.
Speaker 6 (26:50):
I ain't hear from you?
Speaker 3 (26:53):
That's right? Oh shoot, you want to start rout?
Speaker 13 (26:56):
What up? Harrison?
Speaker 5 (26:56):
By the way, By the way, everybody been since you
since you left out here with ect.
Speaker 3 (27:00):
Uh. They're all here talking about thinking that man. Was
that your brother? Everybody always because haircut, both dar skinning
about the same build.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
Everybody made your brother leave. I'm like, Okay, first of all,
I see that's what you'll do. You see a couple
brothers who got the same complexion. Now we brothers.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
Unbelievable.
Speaker 12 (27:17):
I gotta I.
Speaker 6 (27:17):
Don't know what I gotta do.
Speaker 15 (27:18):
Maybe I gotta start going to alf Ro because I'm
starting to get to Chris Haynes. Wow, I'm starting to
get to Vincent Goodwill.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
All right, let's let's start with Lebron.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Bob Myers made the lame pitch to come to Philadelphia
on the podcast.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
What do you think he should? He will wind up?
Speaker 2 (27:39):
And why I think.
Speaker 3 (27:41):
He ends up in Cleveland.
Speaker 15 (27:42):
There is no other story that makes sense. Honestly, even
if you go to Philadelphia, guys, let's keep it real.
It's a great starting lineup and I'll see you have
a great utility starting to get the power forward position there.
But if you guys, just look at the history of
Joel EMBII in the Playoff twenty eighteen left orbital fracture
(28:03):
twenty nineteen, left knee tendonitis twenty twenty one, wal tear
in his right miniscus twenty twenty two, thorn thumb ligaments
twenty twenty three, knee spraying, miss games twenty twenty four
fell Paulson.
Speaker 5 (28:18):
But when man Harrison, at least he's consistent. I'm just here,
is definitely that you ain't lying about that. Come on now, okay,
so let me let me say so. I don't disagree.
We had our first segment we were talking about that.
I said, you know and be often hurt. So if
you're but if you're Bob Myers, isn't that why you
would say? That's why I got vj Ashcum. Obviously rookies
last year who this year played great. That's why I
(28:40):
have MAXI, That's why I would have Jaylen Brown. That's
why I would have Lebron, meaning we can anticipate him
being out and still be good.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
Of course, no, it makes.
Speaker 15 (28:49):
A much of sense for Bob Myers and to Philadelphia
seventy sixties can do it, particularly if your team has
had so much cap space dedicated to to Jylen Brown
and Tyree Maximum Joelebed If you can get Lebron on
a taxpayer, mid level or veterans minimum. Of course you
do it. It just doesn't make sense for Lebron. Imagine
this is his last year, his last year in an
(29:11):
illustrious career career, and you're going to rely on Joel Indeed,
that's how you want to go out. I cannot bet
on That's that's a fool that's a foolish mission. If
you are Lebron James, as great as they could be,
you have to rely on somebody who's consistently unreliable.
Speaker 6 (29:28):
Can't do it, won't do it.
Speaker 4 (29:30):
So the Cleveland obviously makes sense. It's going back home.
Let me switch gear.
Speaker 5 (29:34):
So we got a lot more Lebron to talk about,
So I want to switch to something else there. Let's
talk about what's happening in Toronto. Do you buy into
another guy who's often hurting, injured Kawhi Leonard? Is that
a big help for them? Is that all of a
sudden a contending team?
Speaker 15 (29:47):
Oh, that's a huge help. I mean, if you think
about it. Last year, essentially, brandon Ingram didn't brandon Ingram
basically didn't play in that series against the Toronto Raptors.
He played in Game one and two, but he was
also injured towards the end of the series did not
play in Game seven. Even if Kawhi is not at
his peak of powers, he's better than Brendon Ingram, who's
(30:08):
non existent, who did not play. So I think that's
gonna be great. I also think for guys, thinks Scotty Barnes,
who in his adolescence said his favorite player and the
one he wants to play with is Kawhi Leonard the
least of bounds that his game can take. Just being
around around Kawhi is going to be great for the
team as well. I don't know if they're championship contenders,
but he raises the floor and even if he's done
(30:31):
in three years, Scottie.
Speaker 6 (30:33):
Barnes, R J.
Speaker 15 (30:34):
Barrett, Cembkler, Murray Boyles are going to be so much
better for being around Kawhi during the next three seasons.
I'm all for it, and I think, obviously for the
Toronto fans, this is a This is a great victory
for them to have Kawhi back in the building. The
enthusiasm there is through the roofs.
Speaker 3 (30:55):
I want to.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
Thank you, but I do want to know your take
on the Lakers who have gone from showtime to slow time.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
That's what we call it. Here we go, Harrison, for
your for you. Uh, this is the song we made
up for them. We got it.
Speaker 1 (31:13):
It's time and it's a Crypto storing Luca. We're also
storing Austin Reeds and the pasty Lakers.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
Let's play some basketball. What do you make of the
moves of the Lakers.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
And it's time.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
It's snow time. It is snow time.
Speaker 15 (31:38):
Hey man, Well listen, I won't say this.
Speaker 6 (31:41):
It is going to be showtime.
Speaker 15 (31:43):
They are going to put on the show. And they're
gonna put on the show because they're not gonna play
any defense. Absolutely gonna be no defense plays at Crypto
dot com, at least from the guys in Purple and Gold.
Speaker 6 (31:55):
David.
Speaker 15 (31:56):
I understand wanting to move on from the Bronx usher
in the new era, but if you're gonna do that,
you gotta get some three and D players. I mean,
who on that roster do you trust to guard Devin Booker,
to guard Stephan Castle, to guard Sga, to guard Kevin Durant.
I just go to guard Anthony Edwards. I can go
through every single roster in the Western Conference. And I
(32:18):
can say the Lakers can't guard that man man and
the second man next to them. So yeah, they're gonna
have I said it will be a show. They're gonna
put up points, but they ain't guarding nobody, man, and
they can't win.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
If you don't guard nobody, you ain't lying.
Speaker 5 (32:31):
And the craziest part is we talked about this ares
and I'm looking at it as because they lost all
their the first team to lose all five of their
starters from a playoff matchup.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
I'm looking at I don't think the rosters better than
last year.
Speaker 5 (32:43):
Nope, Ruy was playing good, Marcus Smart was playing good,
Canard Lebron and they did not improve. But I mean,
obviously they're gonna look at it as a healthy, healthy
Luca and a healthy Austin Reeves can do damage.
Speaker 3 (32:55):
But man, you ain't lying. Ain't no defense.
Speaker 5 (32:56):
We thought it wasn't no defense last year, run I
said before in the lakershood.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
Last year, the Lakers are the only team that had
five statues outside the building and three on the court.
Speaker 3 (33:11):
So I'm just saying it was bad, all right, Harrison.
Speaker 5 (33:16):
We appreciate, no doubt, Harrison, Man, appreciate you man, we
check here with you next time.
Speaker 3 (33:21):
Appreciate you guys, thank you.
Speaker 5 (33:22):
