be a joyful thing, but there'sbeen some serious allegations already, serious allegations.
(01:55):
We get we get him back.Well, I mean, if you
saw time, I don't know howhow active you've been on social media,
but you know, Vic was inspiredby JJ Reddick's press conference. He loved
the f bombs, he loved whathe had to say. Whoa hook line?
He took it hook line and sinkerand sinker. So while Vic collects
himself, we should tell you thatthe second stop of the twenty twenty four

(05:01):
All right, it's a two EDAModo Tuesday, and it's time to take
it to vic. H VIC.You were inspired by the presser. It's
great to hear your voice. Fella'sarm so pumped up for Brewery X in
Anaheim this Friday. It's coming up. Yeah, seventy hours. I know
(05:24):
the sence we're gonna be there.We're well there the air of course,
the airbrush t shirts are gonna besensational, but is there also a reggae?
Is a reggae theme? We weretold we were told we were given
the Sophie's choice between the airbrush guy, and we should not because of our
(05:45):
hard work and what we generate,we should not be forced to make this
choice. I think it's a travesty, but we were forced to choose between
the steel drum band and the airbrushguy. So we chose the airbrush guy.
Nizing that people like fungible goods whilethe music playing in the background to
(06:05):
set a tone for an island vibewould be great for everybody to feel good
about themselves. We shouldn't have tomake the choice, Matt. We shouldn't
have to. We want them towalk away with something. And don't think
that we don't recognize your ploy,Vic to get us talking about something that's
distracting, so you don't have toown up to your JJ Reddick and Browny
at seventeen stuff. It's a goodbit of misdirection there, Vic. But
(06:28):
we read that play and we're waitingfor you. I'm not pivoting. I
am focusing on the JJ Reddick pressconference that I thought you guys handled beautifully.
Love the way you guys went inand out, you know, with
some very very acerbic comments. Statement, No, I don't buy into everything.
(06:51):
Well, what did you like aboutit? Vic? What did you
what made you feel good going outof that thing? Like, all right,
maybe it's not as bad as somepeople are portrayed it to be.
Maybe this could actually really work out. What was it that stuck out to
you? Well? Like the factthey confronted the Guardian's question about, you
know, the critique of his nocoaching, and he fired out the expletives.
I like none of the don't givethem like Honestly, that seemed like
(07:14):
a low point, not at all. And I want my players to maximize
their careers. That's all I careabout. It shows that you know that
this posse there. Yeah, it'snot just an expensive suit, you know
with Polinka, Like two expensive suitson a podium and they're time and place
though for that Vic those F bombswere so cool, right, that's what
I mean, like it just it. There's time and place for that.
(07:36):
And in front of an assembled mediacarrying this thing live on TV. Little
Laker fans on summer break sitting ontheir daddy's lap having to hear that,
right, you know, generations,you got gramps, you got dad,
you got Junior, and they gotto hear the F bomb. And now
Dad's got to explain, Hey,no, that's not a word you can
use. That's terrible. Well,there's never been F bombs throwed down at
(08:01):
a Lake of press conference in mymemory. No, no, probably any
Well, Lebron dropped. Lebron droppedthe big F. When he got the
scoring title from Kareem, he droppedthe F. Thanks guys, F Yeah
so cool. You know what Iwant to do it before the show podcast
today? During one of the commercials, so we could just drop a few
F bombs ourselves. Yeah, drop, I'm gonna drop like five. Man.
(08:24):
I really don't give it like honestly. It sounds like you do.
Sounds like you really give an Fand Wyk had like an orgasm. You
can hear it. Vic, You'rea guy that knows how to read the
room, and you've been in amillion of those pressers. You really think
(08:45):
that goes over well? Honestly,it's fine if you say, yeah,
it just seemed like Nick liked it. Some people liked it. A lot
of people. It was different.I believe it came from his from his
gut, yeah, and that andthat's why I liked it, because he
didn't hold back. You know,I would have worded it differently if I
(09:05):
was at the podium, because yougot class. Well, you know,
there is exasperation that so many critiqueshave come at him. I really don't
give him like honestly, But hesaid he doesn't care. Vic. Aren't
they fair? It's kind of fairthat critiques come at you do a podcast
with Lebron. You had an opportunityto be on Joe Mizula's staff this last
(09:28):
year to learn and to watch ateam be coach since you wanted to be
a head coach. You declined thatdo you believe, Vic, that if
this guy didn't have the relationship withLebron or the podcast with Lebron, that
he'd be getting this opportunity? Well, remember, that's a good question.
I'd prefer a direct answer. Yeah, don't try to sidestep me. You
(09:48):
like Dave Meggett. I think that'sa fair question, Vick, it's a
fair question. I believe the influenceof a coach Ryzhevsky I had more of
an impact than perhaps even Braunch.So you think because he played for coach
k Rob Polinka and Genie Busts wereinterested in him, versus that Lebron reached
(10:11):
out to him and said, Ireally like the way you talk about basketball,
which you want to do a podcastwith me? Seems like that's the
endorsement that you would really care about. I believe it all. It all
fit in in their decision. Youknow you need Bronze, you know,
green light, but without it?Does it happen without the podcast? Is
he even getting an interview with theLos Angeles Lakers? Yes, you think
(10:33):
he is without the Lebron podcast.I believe so because of the Krzyzewski influence.
Well, if you believe that,then you believe that Lebron had nothing
to do with this hire, youknow, I mean you believe that,
you believe all of this stuff,that he's going to be able to install
an offense that's somehow different than whatLebron does already. And I want my
players to maximize their careers. That'sall I care about my players. Listen,
(10:58):
It's going to work very, veryvery intensely with with Braun, there's
no doubt. And what about workingwith Bronnie. That's what I want to
get into, Vic, I gotto come back. I want to read
you a couple of texts that justsaid, this is what I was dealing
with in the prep zone while Mattand I were trying to figure out what
we're going to do today. Itsays, careful with VTB today, he's
(11:20):
got some hot takes and he's gothis bearded lips firmly pressed on the pole
of the Lakers JJ and Brownie bsincoming. Then this one says Vick was
washing the Lakers. I wonder,I just want to I've never mentioned Bronnie.
Bronnie today, Vick is washing theLakers so hard and is still waiting
for this punishment for lying about neversaying Bronnie at seventeen. Bulls, Vic,
(11:46):
you did say Bronnie at seventeen,did you not? You're gonna own
that now? No, no,no, no, I said Bronnie at
seventeen. I don't have the audio, Vic, we have the audio.
Games could be the seventeenth pick inthe car Rodnick paint? Who knows?
That was a question to Rodney.That was James could be the seventeenth pick
(12:13):
in the Rodnick paint? Who knows? So you asked Rodney if Bronnie could
be the seventeenth pick? Correct?Because I know, I know, you
know. Rodney's a little love,you know, for Bronnie's son. Also
is a close relationship with Ronnie.In fact, he's in New York right
now with Bronnie giving him support.So I I know Rodney has a lot
(12:35):
of support for young Bronnie at seventeen. I myself, I look at it
at fifty five. I don't know, Matt, what do you think I
mean? I heard, I heardwhat he said. Yeah, you know,
I I like to to take togive the benefit of the doubt.
I am. Yeah, I'm goingto take the Elliott Gould path on this
one, okay, And I'm goingto give him the benefit of the doubt.
(12:58):
I'm gonna because just because it's clippedI don't know if it was edited
conveniently to make Vic out to bea man who made a statement as opposed
to a question. So I'm goingto take Vic at his word, and
I'm going to say that he wasn'tmaking a statement that the Lakers should draft
Bronnie at seventeen, but that hewas in fact asking Rodney Pete because he
did then respond with a who knows, seventeen seems outlandish, it seems impossible,
(13:24):
inconceivable, and yet there you are, Vic pushing the outlandish on air.
James could be the seventeenth pick inthe cot Rodney pat Who knows?
Were you saying some people are suggestingthat Brownie James could be the seventeenthi because
I haven't heard anybody suggest that.Is that what the question was? Kind
of? Like? Vic, No, I just know the love the Rodney
(13:46):
has for Brnnie Rodney. I wasI was laying it out for Rodney seeing
where he wanted to go, LikeDykey patronized us about brewery about the airbrush,
right, No, so what wasit? Yeah, don't you dare?
What are you? Who are youKevin Dekale with those pivot moves down
(14:07):
low? Dare you pivot vic?It is interesting though, What was it
about the JJ presser that you didnot buy? What did you not buy
it? You said you didn't buythe language? The language the farming was
talking about the podcast. He's talkingabout the farming engagement, farm engagement,
far engagement. What are you talkingabout part of engagement? Farming engagement we're
(14:31):
doing right now. We're engagement farmingright now, planting seeds. We have
a podcast. Why can't we getjobs? You talk about transparency, just
be you know, speak speak inclarity. You know the lake of fans.
So that's why you like the Fbombs? Right? It came from
his It came right from his kishkisI like that? But you know it
(14:52):
kind of didn't prove like they asked. The Guardian asked him if he was
bothered by all the criticism. Heresponded by by saying he was unbothered.
And by saying he was unbothered,he dropped two F bombs and it was
the emotional most emotionally, God,I really don't give it like honestly,
doesn't it seem like that makes itlike so you kind of care. You
(15:13):
know, usually when you say youdon't give an F and I feel I'm
the exact same way. I mean, we're all human. Usually when you
say you don't give an F,it's because you do. It's because you
do. He tried, he triedto bury it. But then as he's
as he began, you know,responding, he became more and more emotional
about it, and you know,the uh, the expletives arose. But
(15:37):
you've got to understand the room.I think the room wanted to buy into
him. I think he had avery positive you know, the rooms.
It was a good room for him. Everyone wants to see him succeed.
And I thought he handled the pressconference very well. I thought there were
parts of it that were great.I got no, I got no problem
(15:58):
with that statement, but there wereparts that, you know, I found
very nebulous. You know, themargins when he's talking about margins, maybe
I'm not familiar with that. Butabout the math, did you like the
math part. I'm not a mathguy when it comes to basketball. You
know, you know me, I'mfrom I'm from the streets of New York
(16:22):
exactly. I was into elbows,crash, you know, getting the rebound.
Who was more desire on the glass? Yeah, well he didn't do
the rebound thing. He said theythat they need to be a much better
offensive rebounding team. He shared thatspecific bit about that strategy, like,
(16:44):
hey, let's not get three guysback, let's get more guys crashing.
You gotta be better. I likethat. You like that? Okay?
That that's Streets of Queens, rightthat Streets of Queens basketball crash the glass
exactly. I mean, we hadthe Japanese question from the Rui people.
You have to love that he wantsRory to shoot more threes and offensive rebound
and and you know, and crashesexactly. So there were, you know,
(17:07):
there were some very salient points.I mean, he knows, he
knows the game. He knows whatthe Lakers, the Lakers foibles, the
weaknesses of the Lakers. Oh,nobody asked him, how are you gonna
develop these guys? You keep sayingdevelop, developed, develop, How are
you gonna develop them? Yet stillwin and try to win with a forty
one year old superstar. Well is, he corrected me. He's only thirty
(17:30):
nine. He'll turn forty in December. Okay, how are you very upset
that I kept saying forty one?How are you gonna win with a forty
year old now? Because he can'twait for these guys to develop, but
yet still develop this team? Howdo you do that? Is that?
Is that the math we don't understand. You could never comprehend. I was
(17:52):
just focused on the haircut. I'llbe honest with you. There there were
two sets of There were two dudesthat were supporting some sweet haircuts up there.
Mister looks like he's aged like twentyyears by the way, on the
job, he didn't look very happy. Vig. What's your thoughts on that?
That's a tough gig, man,That's just a tough gig, you
(18:12):
thought Peleaka looked upset. He lookswathered, it beaten like a president.
I think that's the right word,be beaten, exhaustedly, wathered. Yeah,
absolutely, this is a harsh gig. And right now you know they're
there is NBA quicksand and they're searchingfor answers. Now, the assistant coaches,
(18:33):
the assistant coaches I believe will benoteworthy because you must surround you know,
JJ with some heavy duty experienced coachI know, you know, Like
I mean, we're talking about thisin like late sixties terms, right like.
And this is why it's so awkward, Like if the Lakers are like
(18:57):
Nicaragua, Lebron is like the CIAsetting up a puppet government and he's not
there at the press conference with thepuppet government being set up the CIA.
Is he a Sandinista? Move itto the d R, take it anywhere
you want. We're talking with Granada. I guess I guess he would be
(19:22):
uh a contra, No, No, he's a Sandinist. Yeah, Uh
we're contrast I'm the white guy withthe blonde hair and contra. You're okay,
then you you're you're c I atoo man. You're there making doing
Lebron's bidding. You're like Windhorst.Uh. The point is this is like
a puppet government. This doesn't feelreal it and the fact that we all
(19:48):
try to buy into it and actlike it's a whole thing and like,
oh, this guy's gonna do somethingdifferent than this is all just because this
is what Lebron wants, and theyspend half the time denying that. And
it's the stupid thing in the world. We all just have to sit there
and eat this. This is thisis a fake set up puppet government in
Nicaragua or Panama, and Reddick isNoriega. Yeah, this is like that.
(20:11):
That press conference might as well havebeen in Monagua. Okay, pretty
pretty boy? What do you thinkof that? Vic? I love your
geographical Are I wrong? Vic?Are we not just going through the motions
for the king and this is allhis doing and we all have to sit
here and act like something different's happening. That happened before, and then it
(20:33):
happened before, and that happened before. No, so you're saying that Lebron
manipulated the entire situation. No,Vic, I'm saying that the world is
flat Jesus, So we're getting Kyrie. I would have preferred to see Lebron
in the house, you know,for support. I would have liked to
seen Ad in the house, asopposed to what Christian wood was there.
(20:56):
I think Gabe Vincent and Woody werethe two players that were there. I
would have preferred maybe an Ad.I would have left have seen the support.
If you're gonna put you know,the four years thirty two million dollars,
you're in full effect behind J.J. Riddick. I mean the
team, the team should be there. Well, I would have said the
whole team should have been there.That's up to them. They're whatever,
(21:18):
they're off Seaton, why not becausethe team be there with here's your leader
for the next four years. Youknow, the organization is brought inte out
and breaking can right now what they'redoing. And with that, Vic vez
Montane, the great French singer andactor s t ed Mono. Which French

We'll have a top story in aflip top story. We got David mass
from Chicago four o'clock, Dodgers versussign and you belong to the city.
(26:47):
Let's get the sacks back man.Can we get the sacks back in our
rock ballads? I mean a trumpet? Can we get a suzophone out here?
I said that? Yeah? Andflip top and David Bassey and word
number song and dead and alive.Geez Kate, why don't you just keep
(27:07):
us on the clock? Okay,well he didn't Brownie at seventeen. Y'all.
Let's get it done from my takeit out the window. Thanks for
(27:29):
listening, everybody. It's a twoEdemino Tuesday. A big thanks to Victor
Brick who joined us in the lastsegment, David Vasse next hour, we
got Dodgers, we got White Sox, and that starts with Moroco Casino Dodgers
on deck at four. But rightnow it's time for the top story of
the story of well. Building onour conversation from the last segment, he
(27:51):
we have the NBA Draft tomorrow.Tim Kates brought it up and there was
a lot of player development conversation fromRob Polenka in JJ Reddick about how this
isn't just you know. Kate's askedthe obvious question, Okay, well,
I gonna balance it. Are wegonna do this for now or are we
gonna do this for down the road? And Polenka and Janie Buss are trying
to sell the JJ Reddick higher asboth this is the one guy who's thirty
(28:11):
nine, he's a couple months old. He just turned forty yesterday. Actually
so he is forty? Is he? Lebron is not who JJ Reddick is,
and he's the guy to turn thisaround immediately but also develop players and
move this franchise forward. Following sortof the new age of the NBA and
how basketball has changed. Centers aren'twhat centers used to be. You gotta
(28:34):
have five guys that can shoot.You got to switch on defense. You
gotta have perimeter defenders like the BostonCeltics do. You cannot have one of
your five players not be a plusdefender if you want to win the title.
And that's what JJ Reddick is herefor. And we're going to develop
an app, by the way,because that's how our players want to consume
information on their phone. We're notgonna make them sit in front of a
(28:55):
computer screen and watch film. No, they're gonna be able to follow along
because we're going to be app developers, much like Jordan Palmer was with the
IP Freely oh yeah, before hewent back to just being a quarterback developer
and quarterback coach. But there werea couple of things that jump out.
I think now that we've had adata process, maybe reflect on what some
(29:17):
other folks wrote. Two big Ones, Matt, Two real big ones,
two real big ones that gave Vica real flutter at his kishkas as he
said. Some people liked it,some people didn't. Felt like it was
probably seventy thirty in the not intoit sort of category, the thirty being
that's who he is. That's whohe's always been. He and Lebron drop
(29:38):
f bombs every third sentence on theirmind the game podcast on his old Man
in the three So unlike us,who are professionally trained on a signal licensed
by the FCC, knowing that wecannot use any vulgarities, each instance could
force a fine north of two hundredand fifty grand and then I'm about have
(29:59):
to fire RUnni guys. I'm sorry, just the way it's going to have
to go. So he is nottrained. He is trained through the world
through the prism of podcasting, wheref bombs aren't just welcomed, they're encouraged.
But here's two things, well threethings I should say. It stood
out to me that are being celebratedabout the JJ Reddick presser that I would
(30:21):
simply push back on a little bit. One is his offensive strategy. What
is that shoot more threes, offensiverebound. This sounds very similar to the
Darvin ham presser. The Lakers havenot been able to shoot threes since Lebron
has been here, and every singleoff season of disappointment has been met with
(30:44):
Rob Polink is doing a p poorjob. Why can't he surround Lebron with
shooters. He signs these guys thatcan't make their threes, and the offense
gets bogged down. The middle ofthe lane gets plugged because nobody honors the
three point shooters that the Lakers havesigned. So it's not like they didn't
go out and sign gave Vincent,who's one of the better three point shooter
(31:07):
role players out there. They broughtin Malik Monk one year to be a
three point shooter. Like, yeah, that's been done. Like the idea
that he's, oh, he's gonnahe's going to maximize, he's got ideas
and he's going to change the waythe Lakers play. No, they know
they need to make threes. Theyknow they've been terrible at it, and
suggesting that they need to do itmore is rather obvious because it's been suggested
every offseason. The second part ofthat three point thing is saying, yeah,
(31:29):
I want Lebron to shoot more threes. Again, he's been in the
league for twenty years. You knowthe reason he doesn't shoot a lot of
threes because he didn't like shooting alot of threes. That's not what he's
comfortable doing. Now, if youcan convince him to do it, great.
A guy made forty percent of histhrees last year. It was far
and away his best year shooting thethrees. Has never been a great three
point shooter. He's been solid.Last year he was exceptional. So he's
(31:51):
going to ask Lebron to take moregreat. Good luck with that. That
dude just does whatever the hell hewants to do out there. He talked
about making Anthony Davison and Nikola Jokic, that he wants him to be the
hub of the offense. That he'dlike to see a d bring the ball
up more. He'd like to seehim at the elbows, creating. Okay,
God doesn't even want to be acenter, let alone. You know,
(32:13):
be tasked with and if you cando it, great. We know
there are not many people that havethe athletic gifts of Anthony Davis. He
has not been able to stay onthe field. On the field, he
has not been able to stay onthe court. Number one, number two.
He does not like playing the five, so typically defensively, you've got
to have another big out there todefensively cover for what he is more interested
(32:35):
in doing on that side of thefloor. He doesn't like banging around down
low. I don't know. Heobviously knows a hell of a lot more
about basketball than I do. Butwhen I watch Nikola Joki, it's a
very x's and l's heavy podcast,and you don't understand that I don't.
I mean, look shame on mefor pushing back on his you know,
basketball vision. But when I watchJokic play, he's three hundred pounds and
(32:59):
he likes beating the absolute s outof people. He likes throwing his weight
around. He likes banging around downlow. And that's how you set up
all that stuff up Hi, soyou can get that to happen. Great.
And the third thing goes back tosomething that we addressed yesterday, and
that's him saying that this has alwaysbeen his dream and then sharing that Joe
Mizzoula tried to get him to jointhe Celtic staff. Like what, You've
(33:22):
got a team that's favored to winthe NBA Championship. You have an opportunity
to be at ground zero, likeJeff Van Gundy was, Hey, I'll
take that. Get I've been firedby ESPN. Yes, Joe, thank
you for reaching out. I absolutelywould love to be part of your staff
because I think we can win atitle this year, and I want to
see what it looks like. AndReddick turned him down. So it's very
(33:43):
hard for me to buy into theThis has been my life's passion, this
has been my dream, This iswhat I believe my calling is, and
to have an opportunity to do iton a staff that's going to win an
NBA that's favored to win an NBAtitle, So you can put that on
your resume and feel like that isas big of a step that you can
now make. The one knock hehasn't coached, he's never coached. Why
(34:05):
would you not do that? Whywould you not grind it out a little
bit without any fanfare, without apodcast or a face on steven A yelling
at Mad Dog telling him he's oldand stupid. You know that that certainly
because I did not hear him saythat that he had offered the position on
Missoula's and I think it was ina prior podcast that he mentioned that.
Then it was someone that recalled itbecause I don't listen to his pod.
(34:28):
Probably should, I don't know whyyou don't I know, but someone pointed
out that in the prior party mentionedthat Joe Missoula, and they said,
well, if you had this life'spassion and dream of being a head coach,
why would you not accept that offer? Seemed like it's a no brainer
if that's what you wanted to do. History, Yes, So may it
all work out for our dear friendJeanie Buss, May the Lakers be relevant
(34:52):
once again, and not another seventhplace team, but three things that certainly,
it just felt like we've heard thatbefore. For it wasn't some sort
of new offensive philosophy that's going tobe installed. But why do we all
act like any of this? Yeah, I mean, why do we act
like any of this is new?It's just a new puppet government, And
yet we all just go through themotions. And I'm all for blaming Rob
(35:15):
Polenka. He doesn't come off asanything but a wind bag to me,
and somebody who says so much morethan he needs to with as little as
he's actually saying and the amount ofwords that go into it. But who
knows who's really pulling the strings.I mean, we know who's really pulling
(35:36):
the strings, but we don't knowif it is. It's seventy thirty,
sixty forty, what situation is whatthe truth is. How can we trust
anything that comes out of the LakersWhen they tell you that lebron didn't have
anything to do with this, youcan't. Right, It's like saying two
plus two is six. And I'msure tomorrow will address it. But you
(35:58):
know, I feel I don't feellike I'm stealing this from ever anyone.
I feel like this is an originalthought. I hope it is. But
when they draft Ronnie at fifty five, you know we're gonna celebrate the f
out of it. You know,we're gonna talk about how he's one of
the great young players. He justwants to probably just won't walk out into
(36:25):
the ocean like the Awakening Chapan.So yeah, there we go. Uh,
do you know what we're gonna haveto do right? Guys? You
do. We're gonna have to doit right, and we're gonna be here
doing it. Might be live,might the pick, Maybe it may happen
right the air. No, it'llbe Thursday. Oh they're splitting it.
(36:49):
Tomorrow's first. Tomorrow's Wednesday. Yeah, Tomorrow, we're gonna hopefully get zach
Edy, but we won't be ableto to it will be in the Dodger
no, Tim and me. Youknow we did at all that Big ten
work and we were at a Bigten player. So we can say,
hey, we've watched this guy playa lot, but where do we get
Zach eat? Is he coming onwith us? I'd like to think so,
I'd like to think we reach outand say, hey, oh that's
(37:10):
cool. We saw that guy duckinto a dorm room with a chick came
up to his knee. Hey doyou guys want to do? I believe
that belongs to mister Gilmour. Youguys want to do like an Instagram live
when the draft starts? Yeah,do you just start it? Invite me?
We'll see you on there. Soundsgood, Petrust you're in Uh yeah,
(37:34):
whatever, he's ready. How comeon? Don't just have Barry for
Barry's tickets with some big old shoeson giant eye heels. We'll be right
back with a flip top story ofthe day. We'd love to see you.
(37:59):
We are almost exactly seventy forty eightseventy two hours away. Geez,
three to six pm. We willbe at the Brewery X in Anaheim,
right off Glass L ninety one Freewaythirty one ninety one La Palma Avenue three
to six pm. Qualify to beour second finalist to Whinn eleven Grand At
the end of our summer tour inAugust, we'll have onsite prizes list of
(38:19):
those coming as soon as tomorrow.All the great stuff will be given away.
We'd love to see you three tosix pm Brewery X out in Anaheim
this Friday. All right, Matt, this is we'll call it a flip
stop story. I'll clip you out, I will put you out. This
is the flip top story of theday, Matt. The other day I
went to a little league game ofAll Stars that my son was not playing
(38:44):
in for the obvious reason that he'snot an All Star, although I do
believe he voted for himself as heshould. My cousin, Chris Pappus's son
Cole, is the first basement righton the star team on this one.
But it's not even our league.It's a different league, Rolling Hills Little
(39:06):
League. We're right. I livenext door to Palace Verdi's Little league,
so anyway, I went up thereto see Cole and Chris, his dad,
and Mark, his brother Victor thedad, the PAPIs family. San
Pedro Football legends, both of them, no doubt about it. And and
Matt in this game. Okay,this is last night. The other day
(39:28):
I went to a game and Isaw that they won, and they have
another game, which was yesterday,so I said, yeah, I'll come
back and see the It was greatto see the papases. I'm right next
door. I could sit there andcatch up with them. So it's nice
to see everybody. So I wentback yesterday to watch a little league game
when we were done with our show. And it's Hermosa Beach versus Rolling Hills.
(39:53):
Okay, okay, high stakes rightnow. Out an unbelievable moment in
the game. You got a Hermosakid who looks like he drove himself there.
Kind of old for eleven, justbig. He hits a jack,
(40:15):
right, So kid hits a homerun, you know, you know eleven
year old kids. Somebody hits itout, it's a big deal. Everybody
gets excited. Uh. This kidis rounding third about halfway home, takes
off his helmet and bowls it athis teammates. Oh that's a good celebration.
And they all go down in unisonlike bowling pins. Yes, and
(40:39):
and the Hermosa people are in ecstasy. They're freaking out. Game stops,
rolling Hills, coaches freaking out.Come on, you can't take off your
helmet. You take off your helmet. That kid's either got to get thrown
out. He's out. The rundoesn't out. Twenty minute delay, Matt,
(41:02):
I haven't seen anything like this sincePete Carroll and Mike Blatti were yelling
f bombs across the field at eachother with USC at Oregon at the Colisea.
Twenty minute delay. They take therun off the board. The Hermosa
fans collectively yes, the Hermosa fanscollectively boo. Then they put it back
(41:23):
on. The Hermosa fans cheered,Rolling Hills boos. Yeah, well,
the Rolling Hills did not boo.The only booing came from Hermosa Beach,
the kid who hid it and boldthe helmet like Mookie is in the bullpen,
head buried in his hands, crying. Then they give him the run
(41:43):
back and he jumps up like RodTidwell and Jerry Maguire, and everybody's patting
his head. The coaches, Ibelieve, at one point Matt refused to
shake each other's hands during the twentyminute delay because a kid bold as helmet.
It was absolutely glorious. I wasso giddy watching the drama and the
(42:06):
parents chirping check the roll book,and everybody getting on their phone and just
where there's no cell service in thehill, just furiously tapping their thumbs trying
to find the rule and what's rightand what's wrong. And finally the head
ump who's a friend of mine,came over from having to fix the situation
in Lenada Bay and told them thatthe run counts, it's only a warning
(42:32):
for the bowler for bigger and mccrackettgotcha on the Hermosa team, and then
the game wouldn't end. It's stilleight to eight in the tenth and the
sun went down and these it isa blood vendetta. Now they're gonna play
it out at four o'clock tonight.Matt, obviously you're going, oh,
(42:54):
I'm going back up there drunk.I'm gonna have like start pregaming right after
this, right after the word numberof the day when we're interviewing Dave,
I'm going to be slamming high nunes. Let's go, and I have no
I mean, I'm not against Hermosaeven though I'm there representing Rolling Hills in
Cole Pappas. I'm not really againstTremosa Beach here, you know, but
(43:17):
the human drama Matt was unbelievable.There was even an illegal bat check situation
like somebody had beabies in their back. Pine tar a little too high on
those bets. It's unreal. Darethose children try to have fun playing baseball
showing up the other team, bowlingyour helmet. I think it's a cardinal
(43:40):
sin. And also the head firstslide is looked down upon. Well,
you don't want to break any fingers, no, and it's funny headfirst sliding's
not allowed. But all these richkids have the big flapper hand like Mookie
Bets, you know, like thebig spatula hand thing. It just goes
to show you all you have todo is get someone to wear or promote
(44:00):
something you make, no matter howcompletely acidine it might be, and people
will buy it. Big stupid cowboyhat, right, Remember that I had
it on and the next thing somekid wanted it. And now the kid's
walking around a big floppy, dumband dumber cowboy hat, trying to buy
a Rhode Island slut it's going tobe the big hit of the summer,
(44:22):
so I'm gonna head back up there, Matt. It was just unbelievable drama,
unbelievable. Are we in the bottomof the tenth? Are we in
the top of the tenth? Itmight well they go six innings and I
think they had to play three more, so we might be actually in the
ninth. Ok, but I thinkwe're top of whatever. They even started
putting the ghost Runner, you know, on their they had to that the
(44:45):
sun was going down, so theywere trying to get it done. I
don't know if they'll do it nowthat the sun is up. I don't
know. Unbelievably rid of it,riveting stuff. Well, I would I
would love an Instagram update. Idon't want to wait till well. I
suppose it's a good way to teasethe show. They cut off the live
(45:05):
They cut off the live stream,and uh, I had to do play
by play into the phone for mycousin Chris, who was in Seattle.
Cheez. Can I ask stars downthe batter? Can I ask the obvious
question? He's got a high legkick? Yes? What what he bowl
(45:27):
his helmet? No? No,no? Did he bowl a strike and
pins standing was there nobody. Theyall went down, actually all all but
two guys went down, and theythrew the helmet back at him, and
then he picked up the pi theseventh se That's what you gotta tell the
Rolling Hills kid, say, listen, when you guys score that next run,
(45:51):
you're gonna bowl two of you aregoing to stay up. They're gonna
throw it back, and then you'regonna pick up the spare. And that's
how you won up that celebration.They might have thrown him out if all
head back, I'll give you areport tomorrow. Matt word number saw it.

(01:55):
We get we get him back.Well, I mean, if you
saw time, I don't know howhow active you've been on social media,
but you know, Vic was inspiredby JJ Reddick's press conference. He loved
the f bombs, he loved whathe had to say. Whoa hook line?
He took it hook line and sinkerand sinker. So while Vic collects
himself, we should tell you thatthe second stop of the twenty twenty four
(02:20):
Petros of Monday Summer Tours this Friday, June twenty eighth. The Brewer reaxit
Hanna high the airbrush guys on thehalf yard line. Oh really, we

(02:44):
saying instead of showing up at BreweryActs, he might show up at Nudes

(05:01):
All right, it's a two EDAModo Tuesday, and it's time to take
it to vic. H VIC.You were inspired by the presser. It's
great to hear your voice. Fella'sarm so pumped up for Brewery X in
Anaheim this Friday. It's coming up. Yeah, seventy hours. I know
(05:24):
the sence we're gonna be there.We're well there the air of course,
the airbrush t shirts are gonna besensational, but is there also a reggae?
Is a reggae theme? We weretold we were told we were given
the Sophie's choice between the airbrush guy, and we should not because of our
(05:45):
hard work and what we generate,we should not be forced to make this
choice. I think it's a travesty, but we were forced to choose between
the steel drum band and the airbrushguy. So we chose the airbrush guy.
Nizing that people like fungible goods whilethe music playing in the background to
(06:05):
set a tone for an island vibewould be great for everybody to feel good
about themselves. We shouldn't have tomake the choice, Matt. We shouldn't
have to. We want them towalk away with something. And don't think
that we don't recognize your ploy,Vic to get us talking about something that's
distracting, so you don't have toown up to your JJ Reddick and Browny
at seventeen stuff. It's a goodbit of misdirection there, Vic. But
(06:28):
we read that play and we're waitingfor you. I'm not pivoting. I
am focusing on the JJ Reddick pressconference that I thought you guys handled beautifully.
Love the way you guys went inand out, you know, with
some very very acerbic comments. Statement, No, I don't buy into everything.
(06:51):
Well, what did you like aboutit? Vic? What did you
what made you feel good going outof that thing? Like, all right,
maybe it's not as bad as somepeople are portrayed it to be.
Maybe this could actually really work out. What was it that stuck out to
you? Well? Like the factthey confronted the Guardian's question about, you
know, the critique of his nocoaching, and he fired out the expletives.
I like none of the don't givethem like Honestly, that seemed like
(07:14):
a low point, not at all. And I want my players to maximize
their careers. That's all I careabout. It shows that you know that
this posse there. Yeah, it'snot just an expensive suit, you know
with Polinka, Like two expensive suitson a podium and they're time and place
though for that Vic those F bombswere so cool, right, that's what
I mean, like it just it. There's time and place for that.
(07:36):
And in front of an assembled mediacarrying this thing live on TV. Little
Laker fans on summer break sitting ontheir daddy's lap having to hear that,
right, you know, generations,you got gramps, you got dad,
you got Junior, and they gotto hear the F bomb. And now
Dad's got to explain, Hey,no, that's not a word you can
use. That's terrible. Well,there's never been F bombs throwed down at
(08:01):
a Lake of press conference in mymemory. No, no, probably any
Well, Lebron dropped. Lebron droppedthe big F. When he got the
scoring title from Kareem, he droppedthe F. Thanks guys, F Yeah
so cool. You know what Iwant to do it before the show podcast
today? During one of the commercials, so we could just drop a few
F bombs ourselves. Yeah, drop, I'm gonna drop like five. Man.
(08:24):
I really don't give it like honestly. It sounds like you do.
Sounds like you really give an Fand Wyk had like an orgasm. You
can hear it. Vic, You'rea guy that knows how to read the
room, and you've been in amillion of those pressers. You really think
(08:45):
that goes over well? Honestly,it's fine if you say, yeah,
it just seemed like Nick liked it. Some people liked it. A lot
of people. It was different.I believe it came from his from his
gut, yeah, and that andthat's why I liked it, because he
didn't hold back. You know,I would have worded it differently if I
(09:05):
was at the podium, because yougot class. Well, you know,
there is exasperation that so many critiqueshave come at him. I really don't
give him like honestly, But hesaid he doesn't care. Vic. Aren't
they fair? It's kind of fairthat critiques come at you do a podcast
with Lebron. You had an opportunityto be on Joe Mizula's staff this last
(09:28):
year to learn and to watch ateam be coach since you wanted to be
a head coach. You declined thatdo you believe, Vic, that if
this guy didn't have the relationship withLebron or the podcast with Lebron, that
he'd be getting this opportunity? Well, remember, that's a good question.
I'd prefer a direct answer. Yeah, don't try to sidestep me. You
(09:48):
like Dave Meggett. I think that'sa fair question, Vick, it's a
fair question. I believe the influenceof a coach Ryzhevsky I had more of
an impact than perhaps even Braunch.So you think because he played for coach
k Rob Polinka and Genie Busts wereinterested in him, versus that Lebron reached
(10:11):
out to him and said, Ireally like the way you talk about basketball,
which you want to do a podcastwith me? Seems like that's the
endorsement that you would really care about. I believe it all. It all
fit in in their decision. Youknow you need Bronze, you know,
green light, but without it?Does it happen without the podcast? Is
he even getting an interview with theLos Angeles Lakers? Yes, you think
(10:33):
he is without the Lebron podcast.I believe so because of the Krzyzewski influence.
Well, if you believe that,then you believe that Lebron had nothing
to do with this hire, youknow, I mean you believe that,
you believe all of this stuff,that he's going to be able to install
an offense that's somehow different than whatLebron does already. And I want my
players to maximize their careers. That'sall I care about my players. Listen,
(10:58):
It's going to work very, veryvery intensely with with Braun, there's
no doubt. And what about workingwith Bronnie. That's what I want to
get into, Vic, I gotto come back. I want to read
you a couple of texts that justsaid, this is what I was dealing
with in the prep zone while Mattand I were trying to figure out what
we're going to do today. Itsays, careful with VTB today, he's
(11:20):
got some hot takes and he's gothis bearded lips firmly pressed on the pole
of the Lakers JJ and Brownie bsincoming. Then this one says Vick was
washing the Lakers. I wonder,I just want to I've never mentioned Bronnie.
Bronnie today, Vick is washing theLakers so hard and is still waiting
for this punishment for lying about neversaying Bronnie at seventeen. Bulls, Vic,
(11:46):
you did say Bronnie at seventeen,did you not? You're gonna own
that now? No, no,no, no, I said Bronnie at
seventeen. I don't have the audio, Vic, we have the audio.
Games could be the seventeenth pick inthe car Rodnick paint? Who knows?
That was a question to Rodney.That was James could be the seventeenth pick
(12:13):
in the Rodnick paint? Who knows? So you asked Rodney if Bronnie could
be the seventeenth pick? Correct?Because I know, I know, you
know. Rodney's a little love,you know, for Bronnie's son. Also
is a close relationship with Ronnie.In fact, he's in New York right
now with Bronnie giving him support.So I I know Rodney has a lot
(12:35):
of support for young Bronnie at seventeen. I myself, I look at it
at fifty five. I don't know, Matt, what do you think I
mean? I heard, I heardwhat he said. Yeah, you know,
I I like to to take togive the benefit of the doubt.
I am. Yeah, I'm goingto take the Elliott Gould path on this
one, okay, And I'm goingto give him the benefit of the doubt.
(12:58):
I'm gonna because just because it's clippedI don't know if it was edited
conveniently to make Vic out to bea man who made a statement as opposed
to a question. So I'm goingto take Vic at his word, and
I'm going to say that he wasn'tmaking a statement that the Lakers should draft
Bronnie at seventeen, but that hewas in fact asking Rodney Pete because he
did then respond with a who knows, seventeen seems outlandish, it seems impossible,
(13:24):
inconceivable, and yet there you are, Vic pushing the outlandish on air.
James could be the seventeenth pick inthe cot Rodney pat Who knows?
Were you saying some people are suggestingthat Brownie James could be the seventeenthi because
I haven't heard anybody suggest that.Is that what the question was? Kind
of? Like? Vic, No, I just know the love the Rodney
(13:46):
has for Brnnie Rodney. I wasI was laying it out for Rodney seeing
where he wanted to go, LikeDykey patronized us about brewery about the airbrush,
right, No, so what wasit? Yeah, don't you dare?
What are you? Who are youKevin Dekale with those pivot moves down
(14:07):
low? Dare you pivot vic?It is interesting though, What was it
about the JJ presser that you didnot buy? What did you not buy
it? You said you didn't buythe language? The language the farming was
talking about the podcast. He's talkingabout the farming engagement, farm engagement,
far engagement. What are you talkingabout part of engagement? Farming engagement we're
(14:31):
doing right now. We're engagement farmingright now, planting seeds. We have
a podcast. Why can't we getjobs? You talk about transparency, just
be you know, speak speak inclarity. You know the lake of fans.
So that's why you like the Fbombs? Right? It came from
his It came right from his kishkisI like that? But you know it
(14:52):
kind of didn't prove like they asked. The Guardian asked him if he was
bothered by all the criticism. Heresponded by by saying he was unbothered.
And by saying he was unbothered,he dropped two F bombs and it was
the emotional most emotionally, God,I really don't give it like honestly,
doesn't it seem like that makes itlike so you kind of care. You
(15:13):
know, usually when you say youdon't give an F and I feel I'm
the exact same way. I mean, we're all human. Usually when you
say you don't give an F,it's because you do. It's because you
do. He tried, he triedto bury it. But then as he's
as he began, you know,responding, he became more and more emotional
about it, and you know,the uh, the expletives arose. But
(15:37):
you've got to understand the room.I think the room wanted to buy into
him. I think he had avery positive you know, the rooms.
It was a good room for him. Everyone wants to see him succeed.
And I thought he handled the pressconference very well. I thought there were
parts of it that were great.I got no, I got no problem
(15:58):
with that statement, but there wereparts that, you know, I found
very nebulous. You know, themargins when he's talking about margins, maybe
I'm not familiar with that. Butabout the math, did you like the
math part. I'm not a mathguy when it comes to basketball. You
know, you know me, I'mfrom I'm from the streets of New York
(16:22):
exactly. I was into elbows,crash, you know, getting the rebound.
Who was more desire on the glass? Yeah, well he didn't do
the rebound thing. He said theythat they need to be a much better
offensive rebounding team. He shared thatspecific bit about that strategy, like,
(16:44):
hey, let's not get three guysback, let's get more guys crashing.
You gotta be better. I likethat. You like that? Okay?
That that's Streets of Queens, rightthat Streets of Queens basketball crash the glass
exactly. I mean, we hadthe Japanese question from the Rui people.
You have to love that he wantsRory to shoot more threes and offensive rebound
and and you know, and crashesexactly. So there were, you know,
(17:07):
there were some very salient points.I mean, he knows, he
knows the game. He knows whatthe Lakers, the Lakers foibles, the
weaknesses of the Lakers. Oh,nobody asked him, how are you gonna
develop these guys? You keep sayingdevelop, developed, develop, How are
you gonna develop them? Yet stillwin and try to win with a forty
one year old superstar. Well is, he corrected me. He's only thirty
(17:30):
nine. He'll turn forty in December. Okay, how are you very upset
that I kept saying forty one?How are you gonna win with a forty
year old now? Because he can'twait for these guys to develop, but
yet still develop this team? Howdo you do that? Is that?
Is that the math we don't understand. You could never comprehend. I was
(17:52):
just focused on the haircut. I'llbe honest with you. There there were
two sets of There were two dudesthat were supporting some sweet haircuts up there.
Mister looks like he's aged like twentyyears by the way, on the
job, he didn't look very happy. Vig. What's your thoughts on that?
That's a tough gig, man,That's just a tough gig, you
(18:12):
thought Peleaka looked upset. He lookswathered, it beaten like a president.
I think that's the right word,be beaten, exhaustedly, wathered. Yeah,
absolutely, this is a harsh gig. And right now you know they're
there is NBA quicksand and they're searchingfor answers. Now, the assistant coaches,
(18:33):
the assistant coaches I believe will benoteworthy because you must surround you know,
JJ with some heavy duty experienced coachI know, you know, Like
I mean, we're talking about thisin like late sixties terms, right like.
And this is why it's so awkward, Like if the Lakers are like
(18:57):
Nicaragua, Lebron is like the CIAsetting up a puppet government and he's not
there at the press conference with thepuppet government being set up the CIA.
Is he a Sandinista? Move itto the d R, take it anywhere
you want. We're talking with Granada. I guess I guess he would be
(19:22):
uh a contra, No, No, he's a Sandinist. Yeah, Uh
we're contrast I'm the white guy withthe blonde hair and contra. You're okay,
then you you're you're c I atoo man. You're there making doing
Lebron's bidding. You're like Windhorst.Uh. The point is this is like
a puppet government. This doesn't feelreal it and the fact that we all
(19:48):
try to buy into it and actlike it's a whole thing and like,
oh, this guy's gonna do somethingdifferent than this is all just because this
is what Lebron wants, and theyspend half the time denying that. And
it's the stupid thing in the world. We all just have to sit there
and eat this. This is thisis a fake set up puppet government in
Nicaragua or Panama, and Reddick isNoriega. Yeah, this is like that.
(20:11):
That press conference might as well havebeen in Monagua. Okay, pretty
pretty boy? What do you thinkof that? Vic? I love your
geographical Are I wrong? Vic?Are we not just going through the motions
for the king and this is allhis doing and we all have to sit
here and act like something different's happening. That happened before, and then it
(20:33):
happened before, and that happened before. No, so you're saying that Lebron
manipulated the entire situation. No,Vic, I'm saying that the world is
flat Jesus, So we're getting Kyrie. I would have preferred to see Lebron
in the house, you know,for support. I would have liked to
seen Ad in the house, asopposed to what Christian wood was there.
(20:56):
I think Gabe Vincent and Woody werethe two players that were there. I
would have preferred maybe an Ad.I would have left have seen the support.
If you're gonna put you know,the four years thirty two million dollars,
you're in full effect behind J.J. Riddick. I mean the
team, the team should be there. Well, I would have said the
whole team should have been there.That's up to them. They're whatever,
(21:18):
they're off Seaton, why not becausethe team be there with here's your leader
for the next four years. Youknow, the organization is brought inte out
and breaking can right now what they'redoing. And with that, Vic vez
Montane, the great French singer andactor s t ed Mono. Which French
(21:45):
singer is Itvez Montane? He's inGrand Prix right if eve Saint Laurent,
eas Saint Laurent h whatever, clearlyyou guys are down in the gut or
I'm gonna have to go high browhere French stu do it Mono, great

(22:11):
We moved back to France. Ibelieve her. Cheek the French fry,
the French fry boo. You knowwhat, Vic, you can have
(22:37):
your stinking communist French fries. Youknow what I eat? I eat freedom
fries. I eat freedom fries.That's what I do. I remember a
time where you could walk into buya DVD and a big pack of sour
Patch Kids and a stereo and fries. Oh yeah, God, those were
the days. Let's go with formerhoop Or Channing Fry at of Arizona.

Felder? He cut him out,poured a drink on his head, cut
him out, friending to kick hisass after the show. Well, you

y'all beautiful. Thanks for listening,everybody, stay with the show.
We'll have a top story in aflip top story. We got David mass
from Chicago four o'clock, Dodgers versussign and you belong to the city.
(26:47):
Let's get the sacks back man.Can we get the sacks back in our
rock ballads? I mean a trumpet? Can we get a suzophone out here?
I said that? Yeah? Andflip top and David Bassey and word
number song and dead and alive.Geez Kate, why don't you just keep
(27:07):
us on the clock? Okay,well he didn't Brownie at seventeen. Y'all.
Let's get it done from my takeit out the window. Thanks for
(27:29):
listening, everybody. It's a twoEdemino Tuesday. A big thanks to Victor
Brick who joined us in the lastsegment, David Vasse next hour, we
got Dodgers, we got White Sox, and that starts with Moroco Casino Dodgers
on deck at four. But rightnow it's time for the top story of
the story of well. Building onour conversation from the last segment, he
(27:51):
we have the NBA Draft tomorrow.Tim Kates brought it up and there was
a lot of player development conversation fromRob Polenka in JJ Reddick about how this
isn't just you know. Kate's askedthe obvious question, Okay, well,
I gonna balance it. Are wegonna do this for now or are we
gonna do this for down the road? And Polenka and Janie Buss are trying
to sell the JJ Reddick higher asboth this is the one guy who's thirty
(28:11):
nine, he's a couple months old. He just turned forty yesterday. Actually
so he is forty? Is he? Lebron is not who JJ Reddick is,
and he's the guy to turn thisaround immediately but also develop players and
move this franchise forward. Following sortof the new age of the NBA and
how basketball has changed. Centers aren'twhat centers used to be. You gotta
(28:34):
have five guys that can shoot.You got to switch on defense. You
gotta have perimeter defenders like the BostonCeltics do. You cannot have one of
your five players not be a plusdefender if you want to win the title.
And that's what JJ Reddick is herefor. And we're going to develop
an app, by the way,because that's how our players want to consume
information on their phone. We're notgonna make them sit in front of a
(28:55):
computer screen and watch film. No, they're gonna be able to follow along
because we're going to be app developers, much like Jordan Palmer was with the
IP Freely oh yeah, before hewent back to just being a quarterback developer
and quarterback coach. But there werea couple of things that jump out.
I think now that we've had adata process, maybe reflect on what some
(29:17):
other folks wrote. Two big Ones, Matt, Two real big ones,
two real big ones that gave Vica real flutter at his kishkas as he
said. Some people liked it,some people didn't. Felt like it was
probably seventy thirty in the not intoit sort of category, the thirty being
that's who he is. That's whohe's always been. He and Lebron drop
(29:38):
f bombs every third sentence on theirmind the game podcast on his old Man
in the three So unlike us,who are professionally trained on a signal licensed
by the FCC, knowing that wecannot use any vulgarities, each instance could
force a fine north of two hundredand fifty grand and then I'm about have
(29:59):
to fire RUnni guys. I'm sorry, just the way it's going to have
to go. So he is nottrained. He is trained through the world
through the prism of podcasting, wheref bombs aren't just welcomed, they're encouraged.
But here's two things, well threethings I should say. It stood
out to me that are being celebratedabout the JJ Reddick presser that I would
(30:21):
simply push back on a little bit. One is his offensive strategy. What
is that shoot more threes, offensiverebound. This sounds very similar to the
Darvin ham presser. The Lakers havenot been able to shoot threes since Lebron
has been here, and every singleoff season of disappointment has been met with
(30:44):
Rob Polink is doing a p poorjob. Why can't he surround Lebron with
shooters. He signs these guys thatcan't make their threes, and the offense
gets bogged down. The middle ofthe lane gets plugged because nobody honors the
three point shooters that the Lakers havesigned. So it's not like they didn't
go out and sign gave Vincent,who's one of the better three point shooter
(31:07):
role players out there. They broughtin Malik Monk one year to be a
three point shooter. Like, yeah, that's been done. Like the idea
that he's, oh, he's gonnahe's going to maximize, he's got ideas
and he's going to change the waythe Lakers play. No, they know
they need to make threes. Theyknow they've been terrible at it, and
suggesting that they need to do itmore is rather obvious because it's been suggested
every offseason. The second part ofthat three point thing is saying, yeah,
(31:29):
I want Lebron to shoot more threes. Again, he's been in the
league for twenty years. You knowthe reason he doesn't shoot a lot of
threes because he didn't like shooting alot of threes. That's not what he's
comfortable doing. Now, if youcan convince him to do it, great.
A guy made forty percent of histhrees last year. It was far
and away his best year shooting thethrees. Has never been a great three
point shooter. He's been solid.Last year he was exceptional. So he's
(31:51):
going to ask Lebron to take moregreat. Good luck with that. That
dude just does whatever the hell hewants to do out there. He talked
about making Anthony Davison and Nikola Jokic, that he wants him to be the
hub of the offense. That he'dlike to see a d bring the ball
up more. He'd like to seehim at the elbows, creating. Okay,
God doesn't even want to be acenter, let alone. You know,
(32:13):
be tasked with and if you cando it, great. We know
there are not many people that havethe athletic gifts of Anthony Davis. He
has not been able to stay onthe field. On the field, he
has not been able to stay onthe court. Number one, number two.
He does not like playing the five, so typically defensively, you've got
to have another big out there todefensively cover for what he is more interested
(32:35):
in doing on that side of thefloor. He doesn't like banging around down
low. I don't know. Heobviously knows a hell of a lot more
about basketball than I do. Butwhen I watch Nikola Joki, it's a
very x's and l's heavy podcast,and you don't understand that I don't.
I mean, look shame on mefor pushing back on his you know,
basketball vision. But when I watchJokic play, he's three hundred pounds and
(32:59):
he likes beating the absolute s outof people. He likes throwing his weight
around. He likes banging around downlow. And that's how you set up
all that stuff up Hi, soyou can get that to happen. Great.
And the third thing goes back tosomething that we addressed yesterday, and
that's him saying that this has alwaysbeen his dream and then sharing that Joe
Mizzoula tried to get him to jointhe Celtic staff. Like what, You've
(33:22):
got a team that's favored to winthe NBA Championship. You have an opportunity
to be at ground zero, likeJeff Van Gundy was, Hey, I'll
take that. Get I've been firedby ESPN. Yes, Joe, thank
you for reaching out. I absolutelywould love to be part of your staff
because I think we can win atitle this year, and I want to
see what it looks like. AndReddick turned him down. So it's very
(33:43):
hard for me to buy into theThis has been my life's passion, this
has been my dream, This iswhat I believe my calling is, and
to have an opportunity to do iton a staff that's going to win an
NBA that's favored to win an NBAtitle, So you can put that on
your resume and feel like that isas big of a step that you can
now make. The one knock hehasn't coached, he's never coached. Why
(34:05):
would you not do that? Whywould you not grind it out a little
bit without any fanfare, without apodcast or a face on steven A yelling
at Mad Dog telling him he's oldand stupid. You know that that certainly
because I did not hear him saythat that he had offered the position on
Missoula's and I think it was ina prior podcast that he mentioned that.
Then it was someone that recalled itbecause I don't listen to his pod.
(34:28):
Probably should, I don't know whyyou don't I know, but someone pointed
out that in the prior party mentionedthat Joe Missoula, and they said,
well, if you had this life'spassion and dream of being a head coach,
why would you not accept that offer? Seemed like it's a no brainer
if that's what you wanted to do. History, Yes, So may it
all work out for our dear friendJeanie Buss, May the Lakers be relevant
(34:52):
once again, and not another seventhplace team, but three things that certainly,
it just felt like we've heard thatbefore. For it wasn't some sort
of new offensive philosophy that's going tobe installed. But why do we all
act like any of this? Yeah, I mean, why do we act
like any of this is new?It's just a new puppet government, And
yet we all just go through themotions. And I'm all for blaming Rob
(35:15):
Polenka. He doesn't come off asanything but a wind bag to me,
and somebody who says so much morethan he needs to with as little as
he's actually saying and the amount ofwords that go into it. But who
knows who's really pulling the strings.I mean, we know who's really pulling
(35:36):
the strings, but we don't knowif it is. It's seventy thirty,
sixty forty, what situation is whatthe truth is. How can we trust
anything that comes out of the LakersWhen they tell you that lebron didn't have
anything to do with this, youcan't. Right, It's like saying two
plus two is six. And I'msure tomorrow will address it. But you
(35:58):
know, I feel I don't feellike I'm stealing this from ever anyone.
I feel like this is an originalthought. I hope it is. But
when they draft Ronnie at fifty five, you know we're gonna celebrate the f
out of it. You know,we're gonna talk about how he's one of
the great young players. He justwants to probably just won't walk out into
(36:25):
the ocean like the Awakening Chapan.So yeah, there we go. Uh,
do you know what we're gonna haveto do right? Guys? You
do. We're gonna have to doit right, and we're gonna be here
doing it. Might be live,might the pick, Maybe it may happen
right the air. No, it'llbe Thursday. Oh they're splitting it.
(36:49):
Tomorrow's first. Tomorrow's Wednesday. Yeah, Tomorrow, we're gonna hopefully get zach
Edy, but we won't be ableto to it will be in the Dodger
no, Tim and me. Youknow we did at all that Big ten
work and we were at a Bigten player. So we can say,
hey, we've watched this guy playa lot, but where do we get
Zach eat? Is he coming onwith us? I'd like to think so,
I'd like to think we reach outand say, hey, oh that's
(37:10):
cool. We saw that guy duckinto a dorm room with a chick came
up to his knee. Hey doyou guys want to do? I believe
that belongs to mister Gilmour. Youguys want to do like an Instagram live
when the draft starts? Yeah,do you just start it? Invite me?
We'll see you on there. Soundsgood, Petrust you're in Uh yeah,
(37:34):
whatever, he's ready. How comeon? Don't just have Barry for
Barry's tickets with some big old shoeson giant eye heels. We'll be right
back with a flip top story ofthe day. We'd love to see you.
(37:59):
We are almost exactly seventy forty eightseventy two hours away. Geez,
three to six pm. We willbe at the Brewery X in Anaheim,
right off Glass L ninety one Freewaythirty one ninety one La Palma Avenue three
to six pm. Qualify to beour second finalist to Whinn eleven Grand At
the end of our summer tour inAugust, we'll have onsite prizes list of
(38:19):
those coming as soon as tomorrow.All the great stuff will be given away.
We'd love to see you three tosix pm Brewery X out in Anaheim
this Friday. All right, Matt, this is we'll call it a flip
stop story. I'll clip you out, I will put you out. This
is the flip top story of theday, Matt. The other day I
went to a little league game ofAll Stars that my son was not playing
(38:44):
in for the obvious reason that he'snot an All Star, although I do
believe he voted for himself as heshould. My cousin, Chris Pappus's son
Cole, is the first basement righton the star team on this one.
But it's not even our league.It's a different league, Rolling Hills Little
(39:06):
League. We're right. I livenext door to Palace Verdi's Little league,
so anyway, I went up thereto see Cole and Chris, his dad,
and Mark, his brother Victor thedad, the PAPIs family. San
Pedro Football legends, both of them, no doubt about it. And and
Matt in this game. Okay,this is last night. The other day
(39:28):
I went to a game and Isaw that they won, and they have
another game, which was yesterday,so I said, yeah, I'll come
back and see the It was greatto see the papases. I'm right next
door. I could sit there andcatch up with them. So it's nice
to see everybody. So I wentback yesterday to watch a little league game
when we were done with our show. And it's Hermosa Beach versus Rolling Hills.
(39:53):
Okay, okay, high stakes rightnow. Out an unbelievable moment in
the game. You got a Hermosakid who looks like he drove himself there.
Kind of old for eleven, justbig. He hits a jack,
(40:15):
right, So kid hits a homerun, you know, you know eleven
year old kids. Somebody hits itout, it's a big deal. Everybody
gets excited. Uh. This kidis rounding third about halfway home, takes
off his helmet and bowls it athis teammates. Oh that's a good celebration.
And they all go down in unisonlike bowling pins. Yes, and
(40:39):
and the Hermosa people are in ecstasy. They're freaking out. Game stops,
rolling Hills, coaches freaking out.Come on, you can't take off your
helmet. You take off your helmet. That kid's either got to get thrown
out. He's out. The rundoesn't out. Twenty minute delay, Matt,
(41:02):
I haven't seen anything like this sincePete Carroll and Mike Blatti were yelling
f bombs across the field at eachother with USC at Oregon at the Colisea.
Twenty minute delay. They take therun off the board. The Hermosa
fans collectively yes, the Hermosa fanscollectively boo. Then they put it back
(41:23):
on. The Hermosa fans cheered,Rolling Hills boos. Yeah, well,
the Rolling Hills did not boo.The only booing came from Hermosa Beach,
the kid who hid it and boldthe helmet like Mookie is in the bullpen,
head buried in his hands, crying. Then they give him the run
(41:43):
back and he jumps up like RodTidwell and Jerry Maguire, and everybody's patting
his head. The coaches, Ibelieve, at one point Matt refused to
shake each other's hands during the twentyminute delay because a kid bold as helmet.
It was absolutely glorious. I wasso giddy watching the drama and the
(42:06):
parents chirping check the roll book,and everybody getting on their phone and just
where there's no cell service in thehill, just furiously tapping their thumbs trying
to find the rule and what's rightand what's wrong. And finally the head
ump who's a friend of mine,came over from having to fix the situation
in Lenada Bay and told them thatthe run counts, it's only a warning
(42:32):
for the bowler for bigger and mccrackettgotcha on the Hermosa team, and then
the game wouldn't end. It's stilleight to eight in the tenth and the
sun went down and these it isa blood vendetta. Now they're gonna play
it out at four o'clock tonight.Matt, obviously you're going, oh,
(42:54):
I'm going back up there drunk.I'm gonna have like start pregaming right after
this, right after the word numberof the day when we're interviewing Dave,
I'm going to be slamming high nunes. Let's go, and I have no
I mean, I'm not against Hermosaeven though I'm there representing Rolling Hills in
Cole Pappas. I'm not really againstTremosa Beach here, you know, but
(43:17):
the human drama Matt was unbelievable.There was even an illegal bat check situation
like somebody had beabies in their back. Pine tar a little too high on
those bets. It's unreal. Darethose children try to have fun playing baseball
showing up the other team, bowlingyour helmet. I think it's a cardinal
(43:40):
sin. And also the head firstslide is looked down upon. Well,
you don't want to break any fingers, no, and it's funny headfirst sliding's
not allowed. But all these richkids have the big flapper hand like Mookie
Bets, you know, like thebig spatula hand thing. It just goes
to show you all you have todo is get someone to wear or promote
(44:00):
something you make, no matter howcompletely acidine it might be, and people
will buy it. Big stupid cowboyhat, right, Remember that I had
it on and the next thing somekid wanted it. And now the kid's
walking around a big floppy, dumband dumber cowboy hat, trying to buy
a Rhode Island slut it's going tobe the big hit of the summer,
(44:22):
so I'm gonna head back up there, Matt. It was just unbelievable drama,
unbelievable. Are we in the bottomof the tenth? Are we in
the top of the tenth? Itmight well they go six innings and I
think they had to play three more, so we might be actually in the
ninth. Ok, but I thinkwe're top of whatever. They even started
putting the ghost Runner, you know, on their they had to that the
(44:45):
sun was going down, so theywere trying to get it done. I
don't know if they'll do it nowthat the sun is up. I don't
know. Unbelievably rid of it,riveting stuff. Well, I would I
would love an Instagram update. Idon't want to wait till well. I
suppose it's a good way to teasethe show. They cut off the live
(45:05):
They cut off the live stream,and uh, I had to do play
by play into the phone for mycousin Chris, who was in Seattle.
Cheez. Can I ask stars downthe batter? Can I ask the obvious
question? He's got a high legkick? Yes? What what he bowl
(45:27):
his helmet? No? No,no? Did he bowl a strike and
