extended period of time. So let's see you there on Monday.

Come in Manila live at three o'clock.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
And by the way, the Clippers game tonight, first game
in La since the Dodgers won the World Series. That
the players can go to and you know, be a
part of how many players he thinks show up tonight
at Into It Dome and you know, showed on the
jumbo Tron maybe introduced between quarters or something.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Yeah, that's what I thought. That's what I thought. That's
so sad. All right, Let's get to the word of
the day. His words, the word of the day. I
don't know if you saw this, Matt. Today's word of
the day is clone. Oh I did see that. Tom
(04:40):
Brady Weirdo announced that his dog Juni is a clone
from his previous dog, Lua, who died two years ago.
In twenty twenty three, Colossal Bio Colossal Biosciences, which he's
invested he's invested in that cloned the pitbull mix using
(05:02):
a blood sample collected prior to the death of Lua.
The announcement coincides with Colossal's announcement that it is acquiring
Viagin Pets and Equine, which cloned Barbara Streisand and Paris
Hilton's dogs.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
I remember that, I don't. I thought we did something
on Bab's getting her pain Ida.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
I don't know. I don't remember. Usually I remember such things.
Colossal Biosciences which Brady is an investor in cloned the
pitbull mix and they have exclusive licensing and access to
the breakthrough technologies of cloning that were developed by the
(05:48):
Rosslyn Institute in Edinburgh, which is widely known for cloning
Dolly the Sheep, which I did remember that in the
late nineties. So congratulations to Tom Brady loaning his dog.
There's a lot of dogs out there.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
Yeah, you go get one there shelter from the rescue
and probably gonna love that dog. Dog's gonna love you
and grow quite attached to it in a short period
of time, instead of having a previous dog cloned in
Scotland and then flown over to you. Seems like it's
a bit much.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
Well, I mean, it seems like very wealthy people.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Do really stupid things with their money. How much would
it cost to clone your dog? It's a great question,
I can tell you.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
I looked it up. How much him? We guess? Go ahead,
let's go around the room, all right, Matty go first?
Oh okay, so let's go. Ronnie, you're on, you go first,
There you go.
Speaker 5 (06:47):
I'm gonna say about forty.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Grand okay, well, okay, thirty five?
Speaker 5 (06:52):
Is that too much?
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Thirty five from Petros.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go seventy five k. Fifty
grand is what came up? Fifty fifty grand. Ronnie's the closest. Yeah,
fifty grand.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Matt, you over bid like prices, right, they play that
you get the sat Ronnie you in, you get to
clone your dog.
Speaker 5 (07:15):
Ah would not do that. That's just too weird.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
Well, you're the one that's got the fifty grand.
Speaker 5 (07:21):
I'll give it to Matt's week and nine.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
I'm good. I would assume that. I mean, I get it,
you're an investor. But yeah, that's something that I probably
wouldn't make public.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
Now I'm ashamed because somebody just texted me that Fred
did that story. Well, it's I feel shame. It's a
story about a douchebag move. So I think it like
a real douche move from Tom Brady.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
Yeah, what a douche of all people. Truly, are you
cloning a dog? It's a dog. Well, to bring a
dog into your life, it gets attached to you, Kahim.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
It doesn't just seem like a dog, It seems like
a yeah, like a business venture.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Loved that dog so much I cloned it. Yeah, dog
you get, you're gonna feel the same way about in
a week, you idiot. I wait, just because you clone
the dog doesn't mean has the same personality, right, I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
I mean you.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Would assume some of its environmental right?
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Right?
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Was Dolly the sheep the same as she was before?
I don't know. Was Barbara Streisand's dog?
Speaker 2 (08:17):
That last dog probably had you know, the wife before
she left with the krapmagogy around, so maybe she had
some development with its emotional well being. She's not there,
so this dog might behave a little bit differently without
Giselle around.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
It's jiu jitsu? Is that right? Isn't this great? Damn it?
Speaker 2 (08:41):
Hate that we're gonna clone a new mat Is that right?
It's time for the number of the day that won't
cost fifty grand I can propsh you.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
That here's your honor number of the day.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Number of the day is one. I do enjoy the
we call it quick serve here, my man. I do
enjoy the fast food. And I do tip my cap
to the fine folks as Kates and Ronnie are stumping
for Yoshinoya today because they brought him some free food
and Kates can't stop drinking water. He's so salted. I
(09:14):
will throw my hat in the ring. As you know,
I am always incredibly disappointed by the shift from Halloween
straight to Christmas. When Thanksgiving does not get its proper
due in the month of November.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Thanksgiving gets a lot of run around here.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Subway has introduced a trio of sandwiches to celebrate the
Thanksgiving season, and this is one of the better things
I've seen in quite some time. They have the Festive Turkey,
they have the Festive Chicken, but they are introducing for
(09:52):
the first time and they're long forty year history, if
not longer, the turn Hampkin. You can order the turn Hampkin,
which is oven roasted turkey, black forest ham, and rotisserie
(10:12):
style chicken, the ur hamkin sandwich along with as you
would guess, cranberry sauce, savory turkey stuffing made with rosemary, sage, parsley, breadcrumbs, broth.
All of that with the turn ham can meet oven
roasted turkey, black forest ham, rotisserie style chicken. Not casting
(10:37):
shade at the shrimp bowl from Yoshinoya, But I'm just saying,
in this Thanksgiving season, when people get excited about stuffing
about first you know. Oh, it says it doesn't start
till November thirteenth, so you're gonna have to so you're
really giving people heads out. You get, yeah, nine days
(10:58):
to put that on your schedule.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
This says Dolly. The sheep is stuffed and on display
at the museum in Edinburgh. It was kind of neat.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Yeah, that is kind of neat. But spending fifty k
to clone your dog instead of just going out and
getting another one, it's not neat. It's stupid and that
guy's getting paid too much money if you've decided to
spend fifty thousand dollars that way, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
This said Fred talked about that story. Fred thought if
he was cloned, he'd come out like he is now
and he'd still be able to dunk. Oh gosh, it's
not a three D printing machine, Fred. It doesn't clone
you as you as I mean, really, I don't know.
(11:45):
Maybe he thinks he comes out of like a big
bladder like the matrix or so. I don't know. I
don't know what Fred thinks. Fred doesnt want Kevin to
get somebody on to talk about it. By the way, though,
Oh god, No, he does not. You know what, why'd
we do that, Ronnie? Did he not ask for Fred?
Didn't we do the story? Well, it's a big story
besides them talking about it.
Speaker 5 (12:05):
Still, Yeah, Fred was serious. You wanted to be on
a professional lamorrow to.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
Talk to talk about the cloning? How to clone your dog? Yep,
Well it certainly speaks to a wide swath of the audience. Hey,
I know all of you are curious about this because
you'd like to clone your dog, your beloved pet, your
best friend. So we're going to bring someone on to
talk about it.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
I'm calling in sick Tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
There you go, ready, this.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Is the song of the day.
Speaker 6 (12:33):
Really calling in sick tomorrow, Geese or a four piece
band out of Brooklyn providing our song of the day
called bow Down. New Music is what you are listening
to on a Tuesday afternoon as we bow down to
a full four hours of radio salvation in the form
of great sports talk where the new false season is
(12:54):
underway on the Petros and Money Show, featuring a round
ball contest with your La Clippers taking on the Oklahoma
City Thunder on the back to back into a Dome
where our friend Adam Oslin will have that Clippers countdown
show that begins at seven o'clock.
Speaker 3 (13:11):
Thank you ready.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
We will have Goose and Geese out there playing music.
It's kind of cool if Goose like splintered and a
couple of the members started Geese.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
I think it's different styles.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
It's definitely.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
Down down to Madad. We'll be right back with mar
great Sports Talk Sports Tall today and some Lakers celebration with.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Love.

A big thank you to Tom to LESCo and everybody.
We got John Paul Morosi coming up a little later.
We've got a big event at the Soritos BJS a
week from yesterday. We'll be out there at three o'clock
in Soiritos, where we enjoy being. But before we go
(14:39):
any further, make sure you know how to podcast the
show on the iHeartRadio app or to stream it live
because it sounds really good there. But right now it's
time for the top story of the day. Top story
of the day.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Well, we are now officially passed any scheduled Dodger events,
and no matter the sport, coaches, players, owners, front office, folks,
even fans always talk about how seasons always have an
abrupt end. Only one team gets the parade, only one
(15:16):
team holds the hardware, sells the merch and really that's
the World champions. The others are left sorting through a
series of what ifs. Why did it have to uh,
why did that guy have to get hurt?
Speaker 3 (15:29):
Now? Couldn't you take a bigger lead? Right?
Speaker 2 (15:32):
But I have come to realize now and back to
back World Series wins for the Dodgers, as they've done
a lot of winning mess of late, that even when
you take home the trophy, there's still a very abrupt
end to the season, and you begin to question yourself,
Am I still supposed to be celebrating? Are we still
supposed to talk about Dodgers Baseball?
Speaker 3 (15:53):
Well? I mean, how long are people going to still
you know what I mean? I saw a bunch of
people with the Dodger flags that they brought the weird
things back on the freeway today.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
Very exciting. Yesterday we talked with Jim Harbaugh, three of
us reveling in the Dodger World Series win. And then
at the very end, I got Steelers coming to town
on Sunday night. You get into that. What's the plan?
John Morose is joining us today. If you visit MLB
dot com, the first article is the free agency calendar.
(16:25):
It starts November sixth at two pm our time. General
manager meetings are in less than a week. Owners meetings
are exactly two weeks away.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Yeah, most everybody's been sitting around. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Winter meetings are in a month. The other twenty nine
fan bases, as you said, p are well into that process.
We know it because we have been on that side
of losing in the postseason. We have heard from Engelbert
Humperdink in the past, and every year we speculated about
that someone Nolan Aronado, Bryce Harper, Garrett Cole. Are they
(17:03):
really gonna let Corey seeger walk?
Speaker 3 (17:05):
Now?
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Remember that guy, Trevor Barr. That was a good one.
So now they started winning those courtships, Freddy Freeman, shoe
Aotani Yamamoto. Last year, Tanner, Scott Blake Snell, and we
were into that even after they won the World Series,
because of how they won the World Series in twenty
twenty four, that it was bullpens, that they had no starters,
(17:27):
that this really was something that they were able to
put this together. So we were invested in the Roki
Sasaki sweepstakes. They needed starters desperately. It was bullpen after
pullpen game and route to the title. So this year,
after one of the greatest Game sevens, after maybe the
greatest World Series ever, is it different? Are the fans
(17:48):
instead still celebrating? Are they still watching replays? Are you
we got one on Friday, That's what I mean, Friday
three pm. We're gonna have Game seven right here? Or
are you looking ahead with the current state of the
roster for this back to back World Series champion teams.
I googled pe Dodger store just to get some eyeballs
(18:12):
on what's out there, like like players like MLB dot
com slash Dodger merchandise, and I don't know if I'm
just desensitized to inflation for T shirts and sweatshirts, but
the sweatshirt that they were all wearing out there yesterday,
(18:33):
that black one with the gold trophy seventy nine ninety nine,
the Clubhouse T shirt, eighty dollars sweatshirt, and eighty dollars sweatshirt. Okay,
I mean at least it's under one hundred. The Clubhouse
T shirt, the one that they were all wearing where
they were dumping Budweiser and champagne all over themselves. Fifty
(18:54):
five dollars. Not a very attractive T shirt, down from
sixty five, which is the Ota cartooners. Yeah, but you know,
you got sweatshirts and T shirts for thirty five bucks
or fifty bucks. Jerseys between one hundred and twenty and
one hundred and sixty dollars with the World Series patch
(19:16):
on the sleeves. Hats are between thirty and fifty dollars.
And then there are the odd items. There's a beanie
with the pom pom top that has the World Series champion,
oh that you can see on the front. High school
football playoff games without the month, I'm sure in the cold,
and if it were Dodgers blue and white, I could
(19:39):
see why you would want to wear that out in
the cold. But the color scheme looks like it was
left over from some unsold Patriot stock from ten years ago.
It is navy with thick white and red stripes and
a red, white and blue navy, white and blue. I'm
(20:00):
on the top. They have quarter zips for the business
professional that still wants to support the Dodgers for one hundred.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
Kates wore a handsome MLB Network World Series quarter zip yesterday, right,
And I think it's like a Marlborough box, you know
when you when you put so many MLB Network personalities
on LA Radio and you cash in your.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Your MLB rate receists. Yeah, you get you get a
special quarter zip. Now the other end of that spectrum,
you got Kate's and his quarterzip on one side, it's
a flip side of that coin. The flip side of
that coin also one hundred and fifty dollars snaps satin
jacket with the world series.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
Logo same as the quarterzip each.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
One hundred and fifty dollars. Wild that's a lot for
a quarter zip. Uh. They have ear rings. They have
tumblers like a big Dangli earrings, Big Dangli ear rings
with the World Series logo in the middle of them.
That I would assume you have to have some strengthen them. Earloaves.
They have those things. They have tumblers if you want
to drink your coffee from a Dodger's World Series logo, mug,
(21:05):
license plate frames, Christmas ornaments, iPad covers. For one hundred dollars,
you can buy a quote Los Angeles Dodgers Fanatics authentic
twenty twenty five World Series Champion Crystal Baseball with World
Series Game used dirt in the center of it. From
where all flight dirt or Toronto dirt? The great question
(21:29):
where it? Because we know what that Dodger dirt looks like.
We've had to stand on it, and I'm not allowed
to step on the grass.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
Got some of the Kates's seeds in it.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
They have a can't believe you did that case desecrated.
They have a leather wallet, They have a handcrafted wood
baseball game. They have points, They have bluetooth speakers, a
four pack of coasters, and the least expensive item twelve
ninety nine, not a sticker, a World Series decal.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Okay, so perhaps.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
That is where you will find yourself celebrating the Dodgers
World Series Champions.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
Are you giving them more money?
Speaker 2 (22:07):
Or if Ronnie did, that's what Ronnie did. Yeah, because
for us, there really are very few holes. You look
at the contract situation. You got Yamamoto until twenty thirty six.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Which he didn't have to go pitch back to back
and do all that crazy stuff. The guy signed for
ten years.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
Show Hey and Will Smith until twenty thirty four, Mookie
Betts until twenty thirty three, Wow, Blake Snell and Tommy
Edmond until twenty thirty one.
Speaker 3 (22:35):
Guy's going to be Grand Old.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Glass now and Tao until twenty twenty nine, Freddie Freeman
until twenty twenty eight.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Wait, Ti Oscar is going to be stiffly missing balls
in the outfield till when twenty twenty nine.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
Whoa Freddy until twenty twenty eight, And as David Vasse
told us yesterday, no chance.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
They don't pick up a ten million dollar option on
Max Muncy.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
So I think you look at it. They got their
five starters Yamamoto, Snell, Glass, noow Otani, and Sasaki. If
you want a six, you would assume you're six starter
is just gonna be used from the system. The forty
man roster and Emmitt Sheehan or Land and Knack. Either
the infield or the outfield is set depending on where
you're playing Tommy Edmund. If he's in the outfield, it's Pie's,
(23:27):
Tommy Edmund and Taoscar. If you play him in the infield,
it's Freddie, Tommy, Mookie and Max. So I don't know
what we're supposed to speculate. I mean, we've got a
hot stove intro, for God's sakes, when David Bassey joins us,
But I don't know how hot that stove's gonna be.
Speaker 3 (23:45):
Is he gonna go to the GM meetings? I hope
he doesn't have to.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
It doesn't seem like there's a lot happening for him
to have to go to Vegas for the GM meetings,
to New York for the owners meetings, or in December
to Orlandoo where you're headed this weekend, but.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
Maybe just Friday.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
Maybe it's just retail therapy that's in your future because
the hot stove is not that hot, and you can
pick up a rustic framed print for sixty dollars or
one of the other five thousand, seven hundred and fifty
four items available, of which the most expensive. When it
(24:27):
comes to World Series twenty twenty five specific items are
a limited edition. Only five of them. Show hal tany
autographed bat, not game used, just autographed. I don't it
is not game used. Only five of them?
Speaker 3 (24:45):
How many five thousand bucks?
Speaker 2 (24:47):
Thirty two thousand, five hundred dollars.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
Geez, you can clone a dog for that much money.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
Not quite but close or a rabbit A show hal
tany autographed World Series twenty twenty five logo baseball a
limited five twenty seven, four hundred and ninety nine dollars.
So with the parade in the past, with the hot stove,
thirty dollars baseball with a signature on it, Yeah, twenty seven,
(25:15):
four hundred ninety nine for the ball, thirty two thousand,
five hundred dollars for the bet.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
Who's sprinting to make that purchase?
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Maybe Tom Brady? Yes, yea thousand dollars clone dog. So
if you want to fill the Dodger void in your life,
I don't know if Morosi's gonna talk any hot stove
with us. It doesn't feel like there's much for the
Dodgers to do going into twenty twenty six trying to
win their thirteen.
Speaker 3 (25:38):
I talked to Vassay yesterday. If they had not one,
which of course was inches away, they would have done
some jostling right of the roster. But now that they've
won again, they have to quote unquote run it back
and do that. I wonder how much Dell supplement those
(25:59):
older eyes as the season unfolds. Yeah, they got sort
of like they did with a lot of the pitching.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
You get some young dudes in here, feels like to
back them up like Alex Call, like count On call,
and it does feel like they got to sign somebody
for the bullpen, at least one person. Well, think about
all the arms that were hurt this year, River, Ryan,
Kyle Hurd, Tony Gonsolin, Michael Grove. Yeah, there's always like
a whole pitching staff on the eye. O. They'll be
(26:26):
back next year. Landonck Knacker right o' Knacker. I mean
Bobby Miller is still on ice right now. By Miller,
there's six guys right there that didn't part. Yeah, ye shot,
maybe doesn't any bullpen are retail therapy. Well, what happens
to Kirby Yates and Tanner Scott? I think Kirby was
a one year deal right, so he's boom out of here,
back to the islands.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
Tanner.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
Scott's got done, four years left, three years left. Yeah,
it's a four year deal.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
So uh so he's seventy Maybe bounce back here in
twenty twenty.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Six possibly, yeah, or maybe you pick up half that contract.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
And you know, I don't think that's fair.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
You're probably right.
Speaker 3 (27:11):
Sure he had a bad year.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
He did, probably worse than bad. I think you would
describe it as borderline historically awful, following the career year
he had last the year prior.
Speaker 3 (27:22):
Well, that's unfortunately put but probably true. Yeah, so you
think retail therapy give the Dodgers more money is the solution.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
I don't know what else we got. Normally we're talking
hot stove. Last year we were all over Roki Sasaki
and Blake Snell or maxkra and.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
Are they going to bring back Key Khy and are
they going to bring back to the Oscar?
Speaker 2 (27:41):
We had all of that going on. Are they going
to bring back Key K Kates? Are they better bring
back Key k? Migi Rojas, better bring back Megi Roll?
Speaker 3 (27:49):
Micky.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
He was on with yesterday's See wants to retire a
Dodger yeah, but it just doesn't feel like it was
the same as last year when you have the Susaki Sweepstakes.
Blake Snell or Max Freed and Tascar, Hernandez.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
And Vassa was freaking out every three days about snell Zilla. Right, No,
you're right, Madow, But who knows what will happen? But
speculation says you better buy yourself a quarter zip one.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
Hundred and fifty bucks or the snap satin jacket.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
Hey, the Dodgers didn't do much in the hot stove,
but check out this sweet quarter zip for one hundred
and fifty bucks. It's great. Or how about both for
three hundred Or.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
How about the crystal ball with some dirt in the
center for a hundred bucks. That's real world series dirt
right in the middle of that glass ball.
Speaker 3 (28:31):
The dirt doesn't come like in a vial and a hat.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
No, it's like a little disk of dirt in the
center of the crystal baseball. How much is that, by
the way, man, one hundred dollars. That's not a bad idea.
We can put that next to our Joe Davis bobblehead collection.
I'm gonna hit up the clears on the way home.
Get my ears pierced and pick on those earring.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
Good call. So there is your top story of the
day regarding with Dawyern and what's left after a wild
celebration and another championship. People are happy, but there is
a post Christmas Day feeling, no doubt yeah coming up next.
(29:15):
If the Dodgers didn't win a championship, the big story
would be the Lakers.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
I think the Lakers could win it.
Speaker 3 (29:20):
Well, they've been winning. Alan sleiewan the party your conversation.

Our new colleague and contributor to Great Sports Talk. It's
(30:48):
grass Sports Talk Sleewah Hoops Talk Sleewah here to discuss
the Lakers in particular because they are so surprising. What's cracking, Alan?
How are you out?
Speaker 7 (31:01):
What's going on?
Speaker 3 (31:01):
Fellows? Thank you for having me on.
Speaker 7 (31:03):
I'm doing good.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (31:04):
We're very pleased. You know, we got to move on
from the Dodgers at some point here, and you're helping
us start. But are you surprised about the way the
Lakers have been able to perform? Obviously without Lebron, but
without Luca and and just what Reeves is doing what
all these different guys are doing. I mean, who, who's
la Ravia?
Speaker 7 (31:25):
My goodness, one hundred percent surprised, and I think obviously
a really good sign for Laker fans out there. They're
making no excuses. I think watching them play so far
this season, we're about two weeks in. Yeah, injuries, Like
you said, no Lebron and if you go down the list,
even if you put Luca to the side, even if
you put Austin Reeves to the side, Aiden's miss games,
(31:47):
Marcus Smart's miss games, gave Vincent Jackson Hayes go down
the list. I mean there's seven eight guys that have
missed some time so far. It's been really impressive. And
you know, I think just to play exactly off of
are you surprised six and two? If everybody's healthy, doesn't
make you surprise six and two of the lineup that
they've put out there every single night. Shout out to
(32:10):
a lot of those players, and give JJ Redick a
lot of credit as well.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
The last time you were on Allen, we were talking
about DeAndre eight and how disappointing the rebounding effort was.
Is this the same old Aighton despite the number one
pick status and moving to his third team. Now that
part of his game has come alive. He's got a
fifteen rebound game, He's got a few double doubles, had
a monster game last night against Portland, shooting like eighty
(32:36):
percent from the field. Is it a different looking DeAndre
or the matchups friendly? Are you buying into this that
this could be what he looks like with this team
moving forward.
Speaker 7 (32:47):
I think a lot of times your environment is an
important piece, and I feel like the environment the Lakers
have for DeAndrea and is perfect because both sides really
need each other. In needs the showcase of this stage
with the Los Angeles Lakers. He's going to eventually continue
to feast off of Luca Austin Reeves when Lebron James
(33:09):
comes back as well. They need each other. And if
you're eight and you don't want to be picking up
your option that you have with the Lakers when the
season's over, because that means you're not earning another big
contract in the NBA, or at least not for another year.
I think what he's done so far is it's not fake.
I think it's he can maintain that, maybe not have
(33:30):
twenty five and fifteen a night. But I don't think
it's out of the ordinary to ask him to give
you sixteen to eighteen points a night, maybe eight to
ten rebounds a block or two. I think that's sustainable
and the team, the whole you know, obviously the whole
system is not predicated on his shoulders, so he can
be more himself. So I do think it's sustainable.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
Alan Sliwa with us. You can watch him on YouTube
does hoops talk. He also does does that for the
iHeartRadio app so part of our iHeart Radio team. Peyton
mentioned at Jake Laravia they let go Ofdrian finished, Yeah,
he was kind of he was that guy that sort
of replaced him, right, and he looks as good. I
mean he's young, like he said, he's got springs and
(34:12):
he's really putting together some great games.
Speaker 3 (34:14):
Is that what? That was?
Speaker 2 (34:15):
Just kind of one for one and what a great
fit it seems like.
Speaker 7 (34:20):
Yeah, I think, you know, it's funny. I think every
question you guys have asked so far, we've all kind
of walked into the season like, you know, I'm not
sure yet about it, or I'm not sure if they
have injuries what they can do and I think Jake
Laavia kind of falls into that category.
Speaker 3 (34:35):
Two.
Speaker 7 (34:35):
Yeah, I'm not sure how Jake Laavia is going to
do with the Lakers. And I think the thing that
I like most about what he's done for me, it's not, yes,
he's got the capability to go get twenty five points.
He had a game where he shot ten and eleven
from the field. Obviously that's you're not that's not something
that's every noble. But if every night that's all we're
asking for is just shoot, you know, over ninety percent
(34:57):
from the field. But if you put those to the
side and you look at the rest of the stat line,
four or five rebounds, four or five assists, a couple
of steels, deflections. I think he's just an all around player,
and I think we're all learning it as you know,
we get get a chance to see him a little
bit more and more. But he's been wildly impressive, and
(35:18):
I think you know how consistent he can be. I
think it's there's a better chance he'll be consistent of
being a player that's an all round player than he
is of dropping twenty or eighteen or something like that.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
What do you think it's going to be like? When
Lebron comes back. How hard of a transition is that
going to be?
Speaker 7 (35:39):
Well, I think if you ask listeners, it's going to
be one way or the other. He's going to ruin
the team or they're going to win a championship. So
can we find something in the middle here? I think
I think if Lakers are going to accomplish what they'd
like to accomplish this season, and what I mean by
that is be really really competitive in the Western Conference,
you know, maybe end up with another with home court
(36:00):
advantage in the first round. Can you be around that
top three, top four in the West, And if you're
going to go for any type of run in the postseason,
Lebron's got to be there. And I think something that
Lebron proved last year when Luca got traded to the
Lakers was a lot of people that would say, oh, well,
Lebron needs the ball and he can't play off the ball.
(36:21):
Go see the way Lebron played when Luca came. He
kind of knew if we got any shot at a
deep run, Luca's got to be kind of the main
focus offensively, and Lebron's still going to get his and
they're still going to run place for him and everything else.
So I'm looking forward to it. Is it going to
take some time to adjust, Yes, but I think it's
going to have less to do with Lebron adjusting. It's
going to have more to do with other players around
(36:41):
him adjusting to what Lebron can add to the team,
not take away.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
When you look at it the game last night, it's wild.
It's like, who the hell is Nick Smith? And why
is he shooting seventy five percent from the floor or
whatever it was, and then you know, Broni ends up
getting twenty minutes. Like where are we at with Bronnie
James through eight games in the twenty twenty five twenty
six campaign? Here Alan, what.
Speaker 3 (37:04):
What are we going to?
Speaker 2 (37:05):
What are we going to see? Is this just because
a bunch of dudes were out? Is he going to
be part of this rotation? What have you seen thus far?
Speaker 7 (37:12):
Well? I think money. I think that's the that's the
You're gonna get opportunities, not because they feel yet. Yeah,
you gotta hand Bronni James twenty minutes in a game.
He's gonna get opportunities because go look at the rest
of your roster. There's just nobody available, you need somebody
to help bring the ball up the floor. But I
(37:34):
think what's going to determine Bronni's playing time is when
you got those minutes, had you do and I think
the last two games, there really shouldn't be a Laker
fan out there that's been critical of what Bronni has
contributed over these last couple of games. I thought last night,
without really any true point guards out there, I mean,
obviously guys stepping into that role, he had beautiful passes
(37:57):
that set up DeAndre Aing for easy buckets. He had
a nice play where La Ravia go for a loose
ball and the balls on the ground. He kind of
tipped it up to Jared Vanderbilt to get a dunk.
I thought the minutes that he gave the Lakers were great.
So I imagine that if JJ Reddick sees, hey, when
I call on this guy and he's doing some positive things,
even if the roster has most of their main players back,
(38:19):
I still think you probably reward some of these guys
that you feel like are productive when they're getting minutes.
Speaker 3 (38:25):
Alan wonderful stuff. How often does the podcast and the
YouTube stuff go up.
Speaker 7 (38:32):
It's Monday through Friday, starting at eight am, so if
you want to check it out on YouTube. Obviously, the
Los Angeles market spent a number of years with the
LA market. If you guys want to see what I'm doing,
just from an NBA Laker perspective, you could catch it
on YouTube. It's called hoops Talk with down Sleeve at
eight am, eight am.
Speaker 3 (38:50):
Beautiful an iHeartRadio affiliation. Exactly right, Allan, thank you so much,

There he goes slay Wall eight am tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (39:06):
Coming up next.
Speaker 2 (39:08):
I forgot to ask him if he's related to the
dude running from Mayor in New York. You know, the
guy that founded the Guardian. Angel That guy got Curtis
Curtis Sleewa. He's like a Kraska. He got shot. Yeah,
Krask catches the strays.
Speaker 3 (39:25):
I probably shouldn't say.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
That's not what you say when it comes to that
story on CRAS so will he makes his way into
the conversation again.
Speaker 3 (39:35):
We'll have a flip top story of the day next.
What a unique name? I found something unique that you
might find interesting. Okay, you know I got a scour
and dig now that the Dodgers are right. You're usually
just breaking stuff down like a sea man. We'll be
right back with more petrols, some money,
