(03:45):
Day? Did you know when weadded Hawaii and Alaska as our forty ninth
and fiftieth states, we needed anew flag, one with two more stars.
The uniform six rows of eight starsfor forty eight states was any but
fifty. How do you get fiftytogether? Well, crowdsource is how President

(04:06):
Eisenhower opened it up to the Americanpeople. Received thousands of ideas, and
the one that he chose, thealternating columns six of five stars, five
of four stars, and the rowsfive rows of six stars and four rows
of five stars, each equaling fifty, of course, was submitted by one

(04:28):
Robert G. Heft, a resultof a class project for the seventeen year
old high school student from Lancaster Highthe Golden Gales in Ohio, a project
which his teacher gave him a Bminus, yet the nation adopted as our
current flag B minus. Haf Thatguy, right, a B minus for

(04:51):
what would become old Glory half youman, All right, let's get to
some quick hits, MS, quickhits. I'll make it quick, y'all.
Yeah. Brought to you by SanAntonio Winery, Los Angeles, Sip,

(05:12):
savor and celebrate with your friends andfamily today and San Antonio Winery,
Los Angeles. Lebron James has agreedto a two year, one hundred and
four million dollars MAX deal to returnto the Lakers the second year as a
player option and includes a no tradeclause. We'll talk more about it in
the next segment. He's entering histwenty second NBA season. It essentially becomes

(05:34):
a one plus one that allows himto reassess his Lakers and NBA future next
summer. Uh, the Lakers arehiring Nate McMillan and his cool little loaf
and Scotty Barnes. Nope, ScottyBrooks as a top assistant on JJ Reddick's
new staff. Hey, instead ofhiring JJ Reddick, how about hiring Nate

(05:56):
McMillan and or Scotty Brooks. Yeah, it fine with either of those guys
as the head coach. I guessthat's a good sign that they're willing to
come out and support JJ and gethim ready to be an NBA head coach.
That it's not below them like theSummer League is below JJ. Bronnie,
J job's a job, Bronnie Jameshas signed his rookie contracts bigger of

(06:17):
that with the Lakers, per sources, four years, seven point nine million
team option in the four seas.I wish I could you got to keep
this player in the in the house. What else might want him? That's
right, can't put him on atwo way for some team to swoop them
away after they found gold with thefifty fifth pick. But I would like

(06:41):
to give credit where credit is due. But I don't know who wrote it.
I saw it in the Athletic buta oh, it's our man Sam
Amick who posted it. So therewe go. He joined us yesterday.
Today he posts the you guys arole, but everything you said is right.
He posted the the Klay Thompson storyof exactly how it went down,
in that the Lakers were offering fouryears eighty million, and we're in the

(07:04):
process of trying to find a thirdparty to take D'Angelo Russell's contract. We're
going to send a couple of picksto Golden State to make it happen.
And Clay turned down the four foreighty instead taking three for fifty because he
just wanted to play with the Mavericksand said money could not buy him happiness
in Golden State last year. Hewas kind of miserable with the way he

(07:26):
was being used in the state ofthe team and the way ownership was treating
him in his contract year, anddid not want to take any risk with
the Lakers situation not being exactly whathe wanted as opposed to the vibe that
he got from the Mavericks being onethat he was really excited about. It's
a great picture of the Lakers.It does, isn't it. When your
old man is the one given thepitch, You know, like, thanks

(07:46):
Dad, I'm going to move toDallas. That's here. I'm going to
move Dallas. Kawhi Leonard is healthyand set to report to Tmusa. Timosa
is going down this week in LasVegas. Kawhi worked out for Timyasa coaches
last week to show that he's healthy. He took on a chair. He

(08:07):
sat out the Eugene laun Chair thelast eight regular season games for the Clippers
and four of the six first roundplayoff games against the MAVs because of right
knee inflammation. Sure the Steve Ballmerand company are very excited about that.
They'd like him to play more basketballthat's what Kawhi needs. The coaster child

(08:33):
for load management needs to play morebasketball in the offseason instead of resting.
The starters for the MLB All StarGame were announced last hour. Shoey Otani's
going to be in Texas starting DHfor the n L. Is the best
hitter in baseball. Not gonna dothe Home Run Derby since he's continuing to
throw and rehab his right elbow.David Bass basically told us that yesterday,

(08:56):
Yeah, and calls to kant thehome Run Derby. If you can't get
the game's biggest stars to participate,not fair. Not fair to take shots
at Showhy because he is the biggestdraw in baseball at their Midsummer Classic.
Guys got a torn up arm andprobably not wise to take forty hacks swinging

(09:16):
as hard as he possibly can inthe span of three minutes, So understandable.
Why maybe take a pass. Thisyear, the Dodgers announced they're placing
former owner Walter O'Malley into their Ringof Honor at Dodgers Stadium. He will
become the fifteenth member of the Dodgers'Ring of Honor. In recent year,
the Dodgers have added Fernando Vealezuela broadcastersJimi Hayden and Vincecully. Walter O'Malley will

(09:41):
be honored August tenth before the DodgersBuccos game at Dodger Stadium. And where's
my soccer sound? It's just abit odd, right, I mean,
it seems like Walter should be inthe Ring of Fame, no question with
the man you're right, passed awayforty five years ago. I guess they
never did it for themselves when theO'Malley family owned it. I understand that

(10:03):
they had the weird Fox ownership whoprobably now they never got around to it
because they were fledging and then itwas even worse on board or come on
and assumed it would have happened whenMcCourt was there. And now finally,
finally the dust is settled around Googenheimand they're like, oh yeah, check
this guy out. That's got itbrought about La So here we put him

(10:24):
in the Ring of Honor. Let'sdo it. Bog Bog bog bong bom
quarter final round A set. Shegets tomorrow and Houston, Argentina takes on
Ecuador. Speaking of the Huttings,Venezuela takes on Canada. It's Canada and
America. Saturday, Columbia faces offagainst Panama and takes on. But I

(10:48):
see you. We are the Weare the dorks that hosted the high school
party, and yet no one's lettingus get near the cag Like we're trying
to get a beer and mingle witheverybody, all the cool kids, and
they're like, beat it, notwinded or onnaval. But it's my house.
I'm the one hosting the party.Yeah whatever, man, you're lame.

(11:09):
That's what we're doing. These gamesbeing played throughout the United States and
we're not in it. Yeah,we're in the kitchen. We don't deserve
it to be there. We suckSoccer's not bread in our bones. We
suck at it. You put tenlittle kids on a pitch in Argentina,
they move together like a hand outhere. What do they start doing?

(11:31):
They start doing the dougie and startflossing and start grabbing their puzzos. The
Euro twenty to what it is.It's a bunch of bs, That's who
we are, Matt. Euro twentytwenty four corterfinals are set with two games
on Friday, Spain versus Hannam andknee Portugal versus France, and then two
games on Saturday, England the Lionsversus the Swiss, Chocolate Heads Netherlands Cannabis

(11:56):
Faces versus the Turkey. Why arewe here? We border Iran, Come
on, just say the shouldn't beon the euro either, take your fez
and go play in the freaking MiddleEastern Games. I would like to push
back, but I cannot. I'mpulling for Team Hungry, just like I

(12:20):
was in the nineteen fifties. Well, I gotta tell you they are hungry
for victory and we'll be back withmore petros and money Gulash. I just
can't see why they're in the Euros. Petros and money on m FI seventy

(12:43):
LA Sports. We are your homeof the Dodgers and they are coming up.
Dodgers on Deck, Dodgers d Backs, Gavin Stone, Petros and Money
guests from last Friday. We'll beon the mound, first pitch at seven
to ten, tim Case at sixnight. This is our last show of
the Hunt before the holiday weekend.Have a great holiday, everybody show.

(13:05):
We'll be back on Monday, andif you want to come see us and
you miss us, the third stopof the twenty twenty four Petrosen Monday Summer
Tours Friday, July nineteenth at Rockand Bros. In El Segundo. Let's
go Eagles. We will see youout there. We've been there before.
It's a great venue for us.But right now it's time for the top
story of the day. Tom sorryof it well. As we discussed in

(13:28):
quick Hits, scratch the surface.Now we'll dig a little bit deeper because
free agency is still in its infancyand it typically does not grow to be
a toddler. It is over themoment it is birthed because all of the
big names find their way out ofthe market and then you're just kind of
cleaning up with some scraps and looseends here and there. So Lebron James

(13:48):
the big name today, not thethree year deal as we just mentioned in
quick Hits, but a two yeardeal what many in the business would call
a one plus one as the secondyear is a player option. And has
started kind of getting my head aroundit figuring out why Lebron would opt to

(14:09):
do this instead of taking the threeyears on one hundred and sixty four million.
He's done this in the past inorder to put pressure on a team's
front office to continue to build contendersand pay the luxury tax and mortgage future
assets via the draft for current NBAveterans to help Lebron make the finals and
win the finals instead of thinking longterm. But I almost wonder if it's

(14:33):
less because, as we mentioned,I think we were talking to I think
it was the conversation we have withSam Amic yesterday where we mentioned, oh,
we're going to do this all overagain next year. It seems like
it. To god, it seemslike it. All right, all right,
go ahead, what about Amic?Well, we mentioned that it took
me a second to gather that partof it. Yeah, that it's a
one plus one, which means he'llbe a free agent again next year when

(14:54):
he opts out, unless his legfalls off and then he'll opt in.
The Lakers will have to pay himfifty three million bucks to not play.
But we brought up the Lebron Thiswas Lebron's m that he was so committed
to chasing championships that he would applypressure and if his team wasn't in the
finals or at the very worst ofthe conference finals and competitive, he would

(15:18):
threaten to leave with demand trades,would demand moves be made, would get
coaches fired, and all that sortof stuff. And that's just outside of
the coaches getting fired. Not beenthe case in LA. He has seemingly
been perfectly content to finish seventh yearin and year out and really never threatened
to leeve. So why now?Why is this the first time he decides
to do the one plus one?And I almost wonder if part of it

(15:41):
is less about them building a contenderaround he and Anthony Davis. But and
this, listen, I get thismay not be well received, but maybe
it's pressure about how they're using hisson. Maybe he doesn't want his son
in the G League as much ashe was his rookie season, and he's
like, I'd like him to beon the act of roster all year.
Or maybe instead of signing the threeyears now and then being back in the

(16:06):
marketplace when he's forty three, hehas another great year and he gets his
three year deal next year, Soessentially he's able to builk another fifty million
bucks out of the Lakers for fouryears as opposed to three, because it's
likely the precipitous drop considering how wellhe played last year, might not be
coming just yet, and he canplay into his age forty four season.

(16:30):
So it's being reported as a twoyear max contract one hundred and four million
bucks per the WOJ bomb. Andif that is the case, they'll have
to move some money around, maybea player or two around. Get under
that second apron where teams are severelypenalized for crossing when it comes to what's
available to you to sign players infree agency or how you're allowed to execute
trades. I would imagine he wouldseverely penalize enough as it is around here.

(16:55):
We most definitely are you and Iand all the other folks that have
to put up with this BS.Yes, we get nothing. You know,
the Lakers penalties are spread amongst thenon tax paying teams, So the
Charlotte Hornets and the New Orleans Pelicansand the Memphis Grizzlies of the world get
the cash at check from the Lakersfor their penalties. We don't get anything

(17:17):
from it, except for two curmudgeinglywhite dudes that bitch and moan on the
radio for hours a day because theLakers can't seem to get their business together.
But if you just got to grossout, Matt, I'm just grossed
out by it. You know,well, you know what I'm know,
lebronologist. I don't know the timelineof what happened with Spolstra and pat Riley
or Kyrie or David Blatt or allthis other crap that's happened over the years.

(17:41):
I don't even know the vocal timelineor how many times he rolled his
eyes a Darvin Ham, but manywhen you bring in your bff who has
no coaching experience, then you draftyour son and you give them a guaranteed
deal and everything happens, and thenyou sit there and tell everybody that it's
not happening and you have nothing todo with it. It's just too much,

(18:03):
it's too gross. Well, toomuch could be a theme here as
we segue into that contract. Ifin fact the number is what Adrian Wojineowski
is reporting in the Lakers are onlyabout a million dollars into the second apron,
it's worth pointing out that as afollow up, as we further the
story, we were pretty much exactlyon top of this, That is,

(18:27):
it was being reported that Bronnie wasgoing to go fully guaranteed deal. We
pointed out that it was probably notgoing to be to James Harden two year,
seventy million dollar type thing, butinstead exactly what they gave Maxwell Lewis
last year. And that's exactly whatthey gave him, and what that is
is about one point two million dollarsmore than he would have got on a

(18:48):
two way contract. So if theLakers are in fact in the second apron
by a million bucks, it's becausethey opted to not give Bronnie the two
way but instead the fully or thetwo year guarantee, third year, partial
guarantee, fourth year team option dealthat Trace Jackson Davis got from Golden State

(19:10):
last year, that Maxwell Lewis atthe forty first pick last year got from
the Lakers four years, seven pointsix million, three point one million guaranteed
club control, last year, partialguarantee after year two. Maxwell Lewis barely
played last year, but should hetake a step in year two, it's
a big win for the Lakers tohave him at one point seven million.

(19:30):
That's less than the veteran minimum.And that's how they're going to sell this
for Bronnie that we believe in yeartwo and year three that he is going
to make dramatic steps. He iscase study one of player development. According
to JJ Reddick and Rob Polinka saidthey're going to hire a player development head.

(19:51):
Yeah. I mean there's so manynuances to this, and everybody has
their little argument that makes it okay. I'm not saying that's what you're doing,
but I'm saying that's their explain Yeah. I mean, I'm just so
just on its face, the wholething is not acceptable and it's going to
be a story forever and it sucks. It's just because I can't stand the
fact that there's media that sit thereand say this is great, this is

(20:15):
fine. It's not fine. Thisisn't great. This not only compromises the
Lakers, this compromises the credibility ofthe league, all for one guy's ego.
I mean, forget the kid andhis feelings. I mean, it's
all for one guy's ego, andit's terrible. Well, I would then
say this because I know it's onlyWednesday and it's seventy two hours away,

(20:37):
hey, but I would. AndI know how you like to leave ESPN
out of the house and you justwatch it twenty four seven. I like
to bring it on and I'm subtitledit. When we're doing the shows you
want to make sure that you don'tmiss a beat, whether it's the WNBA
or it's the NFL Live or whateverprogramming they're pushing you like to my Pullman
said today, he said, there'snothing going on, and I hate lebron

(21:00):
so much. I'm even watching CaitlinClark games that I won't do. But
Saturday, you may want to avoidESPN at one thirty pm because while most
of the games are played on theDeuce or on the NBA TV, the
debut of Bronnie James and the Lakerssummerlea squad not coached by JJ Reddick but

(21:23):
Dane Johnson, so he can getsome reps and he can develop as a
coach, even though he's been acoach for a decade plus at the NBA
level. One thirty pm Lakers Kingsfrom San Francisco, the debut of Bronnie
James, Dalton Connect and the restof their summer team squad out there.

(21:44):
By the way, I would liketo be on Aspen. Are they not
just put it at straight to ABC? It's not going straight to the network.
Well, I think they're going tosimulcast it, okay, ABC,
ESPN, and they'll be an alternatebroadcast with like Dwayne Wade and on ABC.
Dwayne and his wife Gabby Union goingto be on that family So yeah,

(22:04):
a lot of different I think they'regoing to do it from a banana
boat, so you're gonna want toshare all the options for you there.
That is going to be Saturday.I'd like to point out Lebron. Lebron's
son Bronnie is the youngest player onthe team by far by almost two years.
He is nineteen. He will notbe twenty until October. There are
three rookies, not you know,first or second year players that are still

(22:26):
cutting their teeth in the summer league, but rookies because of these COVID players
that are five years older than him, literally five years older. Grayson Murphy
out of Belmont, a rookie,is already twenty five, turn twenty five
in January. Blake Kenson out ofpitt and Shawn easy the second out of
Missouri, will turn twenty five inthe next few weeks. They will be

(22:49):
five plus years older than Bronni Jamesout there on the court. So you
know what, take it easy onthe kit. Huh. He's still young,
he's still developing. Let's make surewe take no derisive comments from the
stance. Perville Plashki in his columntoday, don't worry about the stands Bill
Bill May. Bill May treat usthe way he treated us when we got

(23:11):
after that security guard, when hetold us how disappointed he was in us.
I'm just saying, what if you'resome angry guy who's coming from Concordia
or something in here in the GLeague, you're gonna want to give Browny
the flying knee. Oh he gonnaget it? Yeah, I mean jj
Reddick we mentioned got his staff started, so I guess that means he should

(23:32):
be able to coach the Summer League. Now said he had to get his
staff put together. While he's gotabout thousand plus games of head coaching experience
from Nate McMillan and Scott Brooks nowboth got de Barns. Scott Brooks guided
the Fun Barns guided the Thunder tothe NBA Finals in twenty twelve. Nate
McMillan one of the great player coachesregularly referenced by those in Portland and Indiana

(23:55):
when he was a head coach there. So yeah, get on up to
San Francisco there and go ahead andcoach that summer league team. You know,
to hell with the development of DaneJohnson. Maybe you need a little
development yourself, JJ. And finallymight not Matt right, you're weirdo.
And finally, I'd like to pointout because right we've been talking about the
Lakers a lot, there is anotherteam in town and they are moving into

(24:17):
a state of the art arena,the Intuit Dome with all of its journals
and Steph Curry handpicked popcorn. Howdo you replace Paul George? It's going
to be tough, but we've heardfrom people that they're going to probably have
to do it with multiple guys andfind roles. And apparently the Clippers approach
is going to be guys who noother team in the league will touch because

(24:40):
they allegedly beat the absolute hell outof women. Route that is, that
is the path they are going towalk when replacing Paul George. Kevin Porter
Junior, you know, was ansc guy signed to a two year deal
August twenty twenty, accused of assault. Women claimed he punched her in the
face. Cleveland arrested for a loadedgun uh and then also threw food at

(25:03):
and threatened calves general manager Kobe Altman. That got him sent to the Rockets
where I would guess maybe finger food, a sandwich hot dog would be my
guest. I don't know what elseis typically in the locker room at a
team event. He was so upsetwith what the DJ set list consisted of
that he grabbed its his the DJ'slaptop, slammed it on the ground,
and started ripping up the club's Andthen the coup de grash for our man,

(25:27):
Porter, junior Indiana fever player andgirlfriend uh hearse kerk Scrange punched her,
choked her, deep laceration over hereye, fractured her neck vertebrae.
She escaped the hotel room where theassault took place, covered in blood,

(25:47):
where she was discovered in the hallway. And yeah, that's that's that's that
guy. That's Kevin Porter. That'swho the Clippers are bringing energy. They
taking the tires. Yeah, theysigned him, They signed him a two
year deal. Oh cool, nowkicking the tires and mutual interest is someone
who didn't kick, but punched andassaulted the mother of his two kids.

(26:10):
Miles Bridges, rested in twenty twoin front of the kids, got three
years probation and a ten year protectiveorder to stay away from her out of
that one. And how did thatgo? Well, just about eight months
ago October twenty three, not evenpc up like a chicken. No,
his wife and kid in front ofhis wife and kids violated the protective word.
That's exactly what I thought of whenI was reading this story. So

(26:33):
there's some street cred mat. Imean, yes, violated the protective order
by with the kids in the car, with the mom throwing pool balls.
Not the beach ball, but Ithink, you know, like a pool
queue from a pool williards at thewindows and then smashing the windshield and telling
the woman if she told police,he would stop paying child support. So
that's the other guy. They creativeattack. Yes, let's let's go after

(26:57):
guys that no one else will seeyet. Miles Bridge is coming off a
twenty one point seven rebound season withthe Hornets in his six seven man,
Please see what's going on across town, and you might want to throw your
own billiard balls around. You said, hey, you know what, everybody's
paying attention to this browny thing.Let's prett it. We're gonna do it.
We're gonna sign these women beaters.Let's bring it a couple of woman
beaters. It wasn't a bit oftheir wine in front of their kids.

(27:21):

work. It'll be a three tosix pm show and we are making our
way over to the west side,so el segundo right there, Lax adjacent
corner of Maine and Franklin. Wow, I think like somebody living like Colin

(28:26):
Coward, somebody who's like Wilshure,you know, or or Montana. You're
saying that El Segundo doesn't want tobe known as lax adjacent. Is it
below them like the just below JjReddick. I don't think they'd be seen
want to see themselves as the Westside. Oh I got you, I
got you, because they are southof the one oh five Freeway. Technically

(28:48):
they're in the South Yeah, SouthBay as opposed to West Side. I
got you. It is our onlyWest. If you ask somebody else SETI
adjacent. If you ask somebody inelse A Gundo, if they were more
will Shure or Montana, they mightnot know what you're saying. No,
probably would not. You could askif they're more Dockweiler or El Porto,

(29:11):
Sure they would have it answer.I think they'd probably say s Pipe is
what we identify, with the pointbeing it is our only greater Los Angeles

you this is your guy. Thisis part of Not Tom Tolesco, not
Tom Tom Tedesco. Thomas Joseph Tedesco. Hem Tedesco was one of, if
not the most sought after guitar playerin Los Angeles for about twenty five years
between nineteen sixteen and eighty five.Part of the Wrecking Crew, and he

(30:37):
is the guy that would go intoa studio to lay down licks and riffs
that no other fingers could possibly playwhen they were being recorded to uh to
wax reel, the real CD,all that sort of stuff. Born in
Niagara Falls, moved out to laand the man that Guitar Player magazine called
the most recorded guitarist in history,of course, played on hundreds, literal

(31:00):
hundreds of top twenty hits from theBeach Boys and Sam Cook and Elvis and
the Mamas and the papas Cher,Frank Sinatra, then the Jan and Dean
and Ronnette Scene, the Stress andall of it. But when I saw
the list of TV themes and filmscores that he participated in and made his

theme for Batman? Is there fornumber one? Right there? Right?

Well? Absolutely for the TV.That is our number one, no doubt
about it. But when we getto the film, Peope, one of
the all time great guitar intros,And maybe it's a little off the beaten
path for part of our listening audience, but for those that love the Duke,

(32:31):
they know real Lobo and they knowthe iconic opening to that film and
the Thomas Tedesco piece that set thetone for what would be the next one
hundred and thirty or so minutes.He was the guitarist for the original Rocky
Horror Picture Show and accomplished jazz guitaristreleased a number of solo records of his

(32:57):
jazz guitar. Could listen to thisone forever. It's brilliant but arguably the
most recognizable film music ever recorded.And when you think of it in your
mind's ear, you hear the violinbecause the violin is out front. But
listen to the guitar. But Tommytedeskos landown here sounds like Paco de Lucia,

(33:30):
the love theme from the Godfa Andthat is Tommy's guitar that is behind
that beautiful violin. The best ofthe best, they say, the best
guitar player, and all of LosAngeles for a quarter century, passed away
at sixty seven in nineteen ninety seven, and the glorious town of northrich California
