There was no get in. I did a quick wardrobe change and came right here. Oh, so you you haven't okay. You broke day
I broke day no question about what were the what were the after party because there's the parties and then the after parties and then you know
Well, first of all before we get to the after parties and all that first of all I play LACC as we can. Okay, my man Austin

So that was great. Let's fascinate it good
But and then and then you know
The weekend was great. Yeah

But you you you hit the vanity fair, which I did not last night. Yeah, normally I do. Why'd you skip it?
I didn't really skip it. It was just kind of like the day
You know, and normally normally it'd be a it'd be a lot of us going and it wasn't this year for whatever reason
But it looked amazing. It was at the LACMA this year, which obviously you know, I'm with the LACMA
Are you on the board? Yes, I am on the board of LACMA. Yes, pretty good. And
But that looked amazing. Everyone looked amazing there. And then I popped by

Which the gold party is something that is
Obviously I can't give you is no cameras. That's why I can't give you too much of a you don't see anything. They put they put the
The tape over the phone. No, no, there's no tape. There's a there's a understanding. Okay, there's understanding that if you put
High-class enough. Well, if you put that phone out and take a picture
The next stop for you would be a bed
It's not because it's not the Derek Jeter where you got to put it put it in there. No, no, no, no, it's called
We politely actually leave right think because the whole purpose you guys are on the honor system
Well, yeah, and and people respected and obviously it's Jay
So but but the whole purpose is for you to feel comfortable for the award winners to come and really enjoy themselves
And and for people to be able to just dance and have a great time and and Jay and and these are great hosts and
The music number one is not hard to believe
No, you're jazzy Jeff. Yeah
that no jazzy Jeff then germane to pre right right and
You know like literally everyone's dancing having a great time
It's it's it's it's elegance. It's a celebration
It's it's everything you can imagine telling me you saw I think it was Jay from across the room lip sync
Oh, we were to himself Michael Jackson lyrics or something. No, anything last year. No, no
Yes, actually something did happen like that. We were listening to
It's funny that you remember that but it's always Jay and I have in this this this
This kind of thing moment. Yeah, this moment because obviously he is mr. music, and I love music, but
This year that that was that was who played that
It was a
It was like the sample or the it was the
The tape the
What was the reference of right of that that they use yeah, but they use that
Mac Jackson song and you heard the reference we heard the reference he was he was you so he's kind of like thinking about lyrics
No, he played the reference the DJ. Yeah, played the reference prior to
Playing the actual song. Oh, that's fresh. Yeah, first of all is that's like playing the I do this
I do a version of that. That's oh, it was quest love who did that. Yeah, yeah, that's right
That's right. It was incredible. I do a version of that in the
Card of school with my daughter. I'll play her where the sample the song where the sample came from and then the hip-hop version of the song that used
The sample and repurposed it, right? Yeah, but that's next level use the reference and then you play the song
Yes, it was that wasn't but we talked in quest love here, which is incredible and and then but last night it was actually
This this mob deep
Quiet storm, but but but but little Kim's verse
Okay, and we were talking about just that verse alone her cadence and the might have the greatest female rap features or album
Front to back that might be my number one, which her her debut album. Yeah, I mean, yeah, that was a classic. I was yeah, and
And
First of all the everything about that album was classic. She created how
Provocative women became on on the on the covers and things like like she talked that she was but also the songs themselves
She's super fly I'm producing the production all of that, but you know the the thing about
The the goal party is first of all it's black excellence with everyone welcome and
You know, it's just one of those things when sinners win at the Academy Awards by the way sinners won I can't sit through the Oscar
They won best cinematography obviously Michael B1
Best actor. Yeah, I mean he could have Michael B Jordan is one of those guys who could win for anything he's in really
He's excellent. Yeah, but but but nevertheless it was a great night. I left right there go
Switched up came right here. I'm fresh though. I'm fresh because the the the hospitality you just have to again
I can't talk too much about it
Yeah, it's one of them places where you just have to be there and you have and it's not like a thing where you
Automatically invite it you have to keep getting reinvited right every year
So that's what the behavior system is yeah, yeah, it's real Santa Claus, but it's a kind of a great Santa Claus
It's great to see if you're naughty or nice
And everyone's there having a really nice time. You get to see you know what I met last night
Kadeem Hardison's mom miss miss hardest she you know she was
One of the first black models and she also really fought for people
You know in the the the movie space
In many different ways and she was the nicest lady last night and it was like
That was fly that was don't you always meeting everyone's mother
Because I'm a nice guy and maybe just how you can tell a knife also
You're when you're you're when you get older to the point where you're a certain age no you're in that mother bracket
No, you're seeing everyone's mom. They look at contemporary. She was hanging last night
She was great. Yeah, and you can tell a lot about someone when they when they when someone's mother
Actually likes them because mom knows best, right? That's just a lot of others who don't like their kids

This March madness moment is brought to you by Atlassian loom
Selection Sunday rich
Selection Sunday March madness is upon us. March madness is upon us. I'm surprised with the number ones Florida Arizona, Michigan, you con yeah
But do you think all four number ones making to the final four?
There's there's a good show. Well, you know what the funny thing is the way you con lost the St. John's that's
Like with money on with the money on the line right big East tournament finals and they and they got waxed
So I don't know that's a good question. I it's kind of a chalky year, I think though
Yeah, I think it's always tough for all four final fours to make it but it could be this year, but I tell you one thing
There's some there's some
There's a ton of talent. Let me tell you something along those lines
All year you're hearing Peterson in advance, right and boozer. He's a great college player who'd be a good pro player
Maybe his upside is in his high
To me easily easily the best player I've seen in college is a cuff
Right to me. I don't know that and I know that everyone wants a switchable six foot seven eight guy
Yeah, and everything but and what is he six three or something like that? He's Derek Rose 2.0
Maybe a little shorter than that, but but he's the new Derek Rose, but got the same coach
Whatever he's whatever he's lacking in height
making up for it in heart and skills and well skills speaks for itself
But still you have to have some he there's some there's some there's some some dog in there. Here's the thing
Paul George is a great player
And if the bands are someone like that could be the next Paul George great, but
When you are picking high high up in the draft, especially if you have the number one pick and it's a really great draft
The only way to really acquire the best player on a championship team for most teams is to draft that guy
If if in a deep draft if I come away with Paul George and I had the number one pick
You can't really be upset, but I'm looking I don't I need I need more to I need I want to select the and I look at a cuff
And I go that dude can be the best player on a championship team, but here's the thing
His name is no longer Daria's a cuff. It is Daria's a tough
Okay, because he is you know, I give these nicknames out. Yeah
In key moments he's he's got it, but you guys yeah, but it's not just see people get so caught caught up in the scoring points
And everybody just catching on the Daria's a cuff
You know, my
Rashad's been telling me about Daria's a cup. He has a mentor. It's like an uncle to him
And everyone knew he's really really good. It's just like
Forever right and it's dad and and you know, they deserve all the flowers that that that is happening for the young man, but
People are just catching on to it and they're looking at the box score and saying oh, he's the best player because of points
No, you have to see how he is
playing the game
Making the right reads how he is playing both ends of the floor. I'm scared of the moment. Yeah, how he's executing in key moments
How he's can obviously can have 27 he's had 27 28 30 etc
But fast twitchy
But also making the extra pass all the things that it takes to really have the signs of
Because it's not just talent. Can you really be a good pro?
Right, I look at a cuff and I see Derek Rose. I see a dude who can who can see Marbury you see Derek Rose
You see a you see a number of things and there's this thing going around about maybe he's the best point guard that maybe the best guard that that
Coach Call is ever coach. He's got some good ones. I kind of think that's unfair to the kid
But it's good that to be in that company to even be in that conversation with all the guards that came out of
Kentucky and now Arkansas
Forget about it, but
Here's the thing I would say
We all say you know people talk about he should go number one. He should be in the conversation for number one. Well
Wherever he goes he will be that team's number one pick and for the kid hopefully for him
It's the right place. Don't get overwhelmed about
Number one because number one could be somewhere that is not
The best place for you. Yeah, but what I'm saying is if I have a pick in this dress or not overwhelm
If I have a pick on this draft and a cuff is available. I don't care who I have it point guard. I don't care
I'm taking the best player. I'm taking a cuff in this draft, but that is not true
And that's now how GM stinks and that's why you're not a GM if that's not why I'm not a GM however
Maybe a mistake I'm making is a GM, but I don't think it is if you have a dude
It's like in the NFL you're like if you're drafting a certain you want a gold jacket guy
You want a guy's going to be in the hall of fame if I'm drafting this goes back to the Jordan thing
Bobby Knight who should we draft number one overall draft Jordan
Well, we need a center draft Jordan playing at center right draft a cuff and figure it out later
That dude is the best player in this draft. Yes, but nor if if you have
Like I can name several teams. I have point guards and wouldn't do it, right? So but if you are thinking down the road
And you are taking them you're taking them if you have someone already
Or you look last year
They San Antonio took Harper and they had Fox and Castle. Yeah, so I'm not saying that we're gonna have pretty good
Yeah, you're not starting wrong it in that case. Yeah
At all, but I will say it's what you said though rich. It's when a guy has a high basketball when he checks every box
Yeah, when he has a high basketball IQ when he is a high care team athlete when he's tough as you say
Yes, he's not afraid of the big moment when he's a team player when he's well coached in cop that is hard to pass up
I agree that is that is hard to I want to do my five-minute max right now because we have so much to get to
Let's do your top. So who your top or your top five change because he wasn't originally in the top five
He's my number one. I have to think about them. Okay. Well, I can tell you this the Peterson Peterson to Basta Wilson
A cuff
Why am I missing one? Oh boozer boozer. Yeah, but I will say
I will say not in order. You're just saying that order
But there's two guys in this draft that
Could could really affect things all right one is a cuff and the other one is Braden Burris right yeah, because of their guard play. Yeah
So I wouldn't be surprised any of those guys
The teams nowadays are looking like it's hard to win with small guards
Yeah, I think a cuff is that small, but it's hard to win with small guards
You gotta be dying which he is yeah, you gotta be just special special. Yeah, because you want to be in moments to where
Again, they're hunting for the switch nowadays. They're there
So that mean they're bringing they're putting a smaller guy in every ball screen. Yeah, it's tough
Especially during the course of 82 game season and it really gets even tougher in the playoffs
So you have to fight through those things
But just having that versatility in that size being able to see over the screen being able to actually be on the other end and get the mismatch
Being able to be the screener or and or the guy that's initiating off. I think he's tall enough. I'm not looking
I don't look at like guy who's like well, he's a bitty, but he's also dude
So his guy Rashad Phillips who played at university Detroit. He was tough
That's who trained him the whole time. So he's understanding how to play it again in right way
If you see him be trapped off the
Dr. Ball screen. He's gonna retreat dribble to where he can see over the defense. He's gonna make he's gonna
He's gonna have ways to get himself into space to where he can have
You know a clean line of a passing lane not to turn a ball. Yeah, this is not like an Isaiah
I don't mean Zeke. I mean the next Isaiah Thomas situation where he's an excellent player
He really is so small that it creates problems in the end of games even though you'd love to put him on the tour is not that
Yeah, the second Isaiah Thomas was excellent about that. Yeah, you're right about that all right
Listen here. So we have to get to the Lakers beating the nuggets and over time. There's so much in that game
We you know, there's LeBron stuff. There's Lucas stuff. There's Austin Reeves stuff. There's JJ redic stuff. We got to get to
Just like the thunder beat the wolves right the thunder thunder looking good
But I want I want to give you my five minute max right now. Okay, because there's so much stuff rich here it is
We are spoiled
Sports fans right now like think about it. This is considered before March Madness is considered a dead spot in the sports calendar
Right, you hear people say that a lot the NFL is so far away baseball hasn't started yet
The NBA isn't in the playoffs yet, etc
Think about what just happened over this last weekend. Okay, so the reason I bring this up is because Dana white
You know, he and I talk a bunch and I know I was picking his brain when he's coming up with Zufa boxing
When he called me about it
Because you want it to be successful like the UFC. So what's the the the key to success in the UFC and one of them
He told me is in every broadcast. He tries to give the fans
Three holy shit moments like oh my god. Did you just see that?
Think about the number of oh my god. Did you just see that moments over this sports weekend? Okay, never mind
Bams 83 points. We saw history everything that came out again like oh my god. That's like a week ago already forget about them
Okay, I know that seemed like a meant to go that it just happened and it just happened
But this weekend so Aaron judge yesterday through a guy out at third base
With a throw that made him look like what my dad just tell me Roberto Clemente
Through in right field Aaron judge is known like maybe the best hitter ever
But his the throw he made
That would be Bay Bonds was the best hitter ever who's not clearly enhanced. All right, listen
Sorry, that's what it is. Yeah, so that would be Bay Bonds, but whatever. Yeah, right if you just want to see the best
Baseball hitting and I don't care how they got there. It's bonds, but anyway
So so judge throws them out at third base. That's an oh, oh my god. Did you see that moment, right? There's one the USA
We beat
DR on a on a called third strike that was a ball that was leading a lot of shows this morning
But and it wasn't an oh my god moment, but it was like a memorable moment, right?
Rick patino
Rick patino
Gets destroyed by Yukon three or four weeks ago, right?
Destroyed to the point where I was like oh, okay, I get it now Yukon's the best team in the country
But in the big east tournament, right with the chips on the line
Rick patino's team blows out Yukon a 20 point game
In a college tournament and in the big east tournament
Rick patino like
He's a guy when you think about his
Influence on the history of basketball. I don't think people understand the profundity of his influence the scope
You better forget about the fact that he was a very successful pro and college coach his
Career was over it ended in scandal. He had to leave the country. He's back
He's back. He's back in the tournament and he's still kicking us through the NIL thing and everything all these other guys leave the sport
He is a basketball junkie. I think he would die if he weren't coaching
It's keeping them alive like a vampire. He's like he this dude. That's his life blood
Rich I think about how the three-point shot has changed the game
patino is so
Intimately involved in that the bomb squad with the nicks with Mark Jackson and Johnny Newman and all those guys who were
patino was the original dantonies like get up a lot of these type of shots
Mark Jackson was on that team who eventually brought that philosophy to golden state and told curry and clay shoot shoot from there
That's okay, right? That completely influenced the NF the the NBA and this dude is just whooped up on the maybe the best team in the country
Who blew you saw the look on his face a couple weeks ago? That was the Arizona go ahead right maybe but I mean you cons up there
You saw the look on patino's face when you can beat him. He was humiliated right like you're thinking
Oh, what's gonna happen if these two see each other again? That's what happened the a cuff with 37
He goes off for 37 handful of games ago. He had 49 right then you had
Selection Sunday. Yes, hold on Luca had a 30-point triple double after a 50-point game
Lebron is a hundred years old. I know we're gonna get to this in a second. He a hundred years old. He laid out
He looked like Greg Nettles at third base
Diving for a ball in the world series in the 78s. He laid out for for a loose ball
Max Crosby is still available in the NFL by the way because that deal got undone is AJ Brown and get about to get moved right?
This is the dead spot
The giants my giants signed Darnell mooney from the from the Falcons
He's a get behind the defense athletic high upside receiver my point is this last weekend in sports
Gate was so jam packed. This is the dead spot. It's unbelievable. We're spoiled. I can see you like
You're overheating. Yeah, like I can see it max. Yeah, I'm done. That's it
This is five that was five minutes strong. All right
Here's what I'll say
Do you think we can get the tape my father used to get the tape
Uh, he didn't he didn't go to church all the time when he didn't go to church. He would have
Revin Howard at the time
Just send him the sermon
So he can listen to it himself if you if you miss church. Yeah, do you think we can get the tape of
Rick Patinos
Talk after that game pre-game. No, not after. Oh pre-game. I'm saying I'm saying after the lost
No, no, no, I want the talk if looks could kill boy before the game. Yeah
That he had with that team because that team the way they came out and played
You know, I love those Kentucky teams with Rick Patino sure. Oh, look. I mean he was
I mean, do you know the
Wayne Turner
Mercer
Derrick Anderson
Antoine Walker Epps
I mean
You watch him a cardie
He just had you just had so many guys so many guys
Rick Patino is great for college basketball. He's great for basketball, but definitely college basketball and
Think about it Rick Patino coach two guys. He coached Walter Clayton right at Iona before he went to Florida
Went to Iona to coach and then the young man Jenkins that's playing extremely well
And Detroit right who just got a just got a contract
coach him to yeah
He said the other day that there was a young man that's in pro at Providence that Rick Patino says going to be a pro
Now he may not be high on people's boards or whatever, but if Rick Patino says yes
He's seen enough pros to tell you
Definitely, but I'll say this all that you just talked about
Which great for sports fans
The problem I have is when you turn on the TV
People act as if
Everything is bad. You just you just want a five-minute rent. Yeah, thank God. I was only five minutes
But you just want to five-minute rent and it was all positive
You know, I think part of the reason is it's hard to find everything like you you have multiple subscriptions
You got to be going back and forth to find it if you're if you're if you're you know if you got an Apple TV or whatever you got
It is it's hard to find stuff. Man. It's aggravating. You know, it is, but
That's great. It's great for sports. I'm excited for it all
I want I wanted to go to one of those baseball games, but the world baseball class is just not enough just not enough
Hours in a day. No get to all these things. No, I want to go to Indian Wells. I miss Indian Wells
I wanted to go to I mean it was two games
I actually went to the Clippers Kings game instead of going to the Lakers Nuggets game
Yeah, that was in the best choice, but yeah, it actually was why
What do you mean? Why not? I like the Clippers. Lakers Nuggets came the next game
But I always I go to a tunnel like I was watching on my phone. It was great. That's true
Yeah, that's what I do all the time

Let's get into lakeers nuggets. Okay, sure
Lakeers beat the notes. I had to start with you ourselves. I got to start with you with Lebron
Went if Lebron people are like oh, I did ever used to see Lebron make that kind of play if I'm a coach of a team
And Lebron make in his prime makes that kind of play you're mad
Of course you do not want a player in his prime as great as Lebron was
To ever
Your threshold for injury tolerance for injury risk is very low now if it's game seven of the finals go ahead
But in a regular season game, I'd better not see Lebron do that in his prime
However as your talent diminishes as you get older your skill stays the same or gets better usually
You know how you know how and your technique, but your talent how fast you run out high you jump back on your first step
diminishes over time he's a hundred years old and he does that if Lebron can play that style of basketball if he's like
I'm actually the glue guy on this team that's gonna make sure everything's okay for everybody
Lucas running the offense Austin Reeves is the number two squaring option
But I'm the everything man who's gonna like you said be the Carl Malone type guy
But also be the kind of like Dennis Robin kind of guy if Lebron can sustain that
for
You know six weeks or something like that Lakers are extremely dangerous rich
Well, look, I think you hear all the nonsense about
And I I hate to talk keep talking about the Lakers, but we have to because
Lakers cowboys Yankees are some brands, but what talks but
But you hear all the nonsense about the team being better without Lebron
I've never seen a team in my life that would be better without Lebron James till this one this year until recently
No, still this one not either because of all the things you just said
I think it's more so about
Figuring it out and sometimes it takes you longer than not because for a guy that's been on the ball for so long
How do you play them off the ball? But then
Obviously you put them in the corner because that's supposed to be you know second-side action
But that may not yeah that may not work there so it but it takes and they didn't get reps together because one of them was always hurt all year
Yes, but it also takes you a while to figure it out and you also have to count keeping
You have to understand or factor in
His presence you gotta realize something
most
Guys that steps on the basketball floor with the Lebron James number one are in all
Right if they're not trying to pretend like there's there
They get into somebody else or what not
If they're not put on the act
It's by the way the act as you say that
If you walk into a room and you want to see if if you're a guy or a girl and and you want to see if you're getting rhythm from somebody across the room
And they never look at you once
Throughout the entire time you're in the room
That tells you something they're avoiding it right that that means that they they're trying to they're kicking game in a way
Right that's not the same thing is kind of looking at you for a second and looking at someone else
When Lebron it if a team is put together and people are going out of their way to kind of not notice Lebron
They're telling on themselves a little bit because
That's not really possible right the the other thing is
Obviously
Every game is a
Is a championship for a lot of people, you know because what young player don't want to play well
They've been watching them all this life
What team mate don't want to play well because they've been watching them all their life their basketball careers
I mean the guy's been the league for 23 years
So I just I just some things when you when people's especially basketball people when basketball people say certain things
that I
Kind of respect their basketball
Acumen and then they say certain things because of just
Flow on with the the that's just the way everything is going. I'm just like
What do you respond to specifically what comments? Well, there was a comment that that said that the Lakers were better without
Well, okay, well, so this is interesting, right? That's analytic the sample size wasn't huge
But it wasn't tiny either and I would agree that one of the reasons it was probably like this what I'm about to say
Is because there was very little continuity with the big three playing together, right?
However, it was interesting that they went from a very good offensive team with Luca and and
Austin Reeves on the floor together to a bad offensive team if you added Lebron
It didn't make sense because I agree with you Lebron's overall game is such that any team you ever put him on should only ever get better
So it was curious that this was get that this team was getting worse offensively
I agree with your analysis. They were figuring it out in retrospect. Yeah, but it was alarming because it's like
If Lebron doesn't have that thing
Where he's making a team better and he's 40 plus years old and he's in his 23rd season
Maybe it's the end, right? Like that's what but the but the fact is since you brought it up the net rating stats are now plus of with those three guys playing together
Max, do you know how hard it is
To not start training camp and have rhythm right
It's just and by the way, it's not like he's ever had an issue with
Starting the season or getting out or playing the right way. He's always only played the right way too much the right way sometimes
Yeah, he's the one guy that can play
really play and know how to play
Every position on the floor if he was a five man, he's gonna set the proper think about it
If he was if he's your five man when she was playing some small ball five
He's a little more work in the post. I think to be a great five, but yes, not no more because you have a stretch five right?
It's true. So now if he's your five man and you have a one three
Or one five. I'm saying that he's yeah, yeah, but you have a one five picking role with either
Luke or AR
great because now
the
He's rolling so now he's making the secondary
He's your secondary decision maker. Who would you rather have an entirely he can play the two because he could guard your other team's point
This is the part and he can make up this is the point on making, but you understand what comes with it, right?
You understand what comes with it. You didn't hear that from
The organization never said that or any of the rare
Not responding to what I was thinking myself
It's not that I was thinking this is definitive. They're getting worse, but I was thinking I have a question
Is this because they haven't had continuity so far? Is there something behind the scenes where luca resents Lebron or Lebron
But but what it appears to be at this moment is the is the not getting enough reps with continuity the three of them together to figure it out until
When you here's the thing
When you have guys, there's two type of players
There's a guy that can go and get it and there's a guy who is of what what I would call a
Not a specialist right
During the course of NBA's regular season
Specialists actually have a ton of value
Because that's one of those situations where it's a swing swing that guy's in the corner and that corner
guy he can only shoot three's right he's a specialist
But then you get to the point to where you need a guy that can actually put the ball in the ground and go and get it themselves right
When you have
These guys in your top heavy with these type of guys
It takes a little while to figure it out because normally you this is why I always set my theory about a big three
Normally you only really need a big two
Because it it allows you to think less about that third guy who has
Not necessarily entitlement
But who is talented enough to have some own some type of real estate and being able to pull out their
DIY kid
Here, but I like your definition for people who have don't know the way you fix
I'm all paraphrase you tell me if I got it or not the the reason big three's don't actually exist is to say a big three
It means each player is capable of being the nucleus of a championship team. Yes, usually you have a big two
Obviously, you could do it with weight if he has a crime partner. You could do it. Lebron
But Bosch as great a player as he was two way player is not the centerpiece of a championship team right yes
Kevin Love was an excellent player is not the centerpiece of a championship team
Even if Lebron is and maybe Kyrie could be certainly one of the two Kyrie could be
So in fact your claim is and I agree with it. I think it's a good definition big three's don't actually exist because
It you just can't put those three guys together. Yes, and here's the other thing. It's not as if
you know, there's been a consistent effort to
To have more of
The initiating guys right to be able to initiate the offense
That doesn't mean that high-level production can't come from a different position because
Obviously when AD was here in LA
Yeah, a lot of the points are being scored and there's big numbers
But it's a difference when you have to get somebody to ball versus when somebody has the ball right initiating offense
So you actually need that other initiator sure that could come they didn't have that now you do have it
So so now it looks a little different and people want to kind of
Go crazy about the idea of it, but that's not true. You have to allow yourself to really
Settle in it's like anything else in life if you build a house
Right the house can look great
And you can have all the the plumbing and all that stuff that foundation still has to settle
It takes years for the foundation to still have to settle and it's the same thing with a team
I just thought of a big three that would have that act but actually approves the point because when they were all healthy
They just never were they were so much better than everyone when hard and KD and Kyrie were on the same team
Yes, they stayed healthy. Yes, they never would have lost the game like they were killing everybody like you know
Any two of them were but because that shouldn't exist in nature. Okay, but here's the thing about that big three right
When you talk about being able to want one play one on one yeah
All three of those guys
If you had to rank in the history to leave their way up high their way up high. Yeah
When you talk about the three point shot all could do it all three
There was not an offensive weakness in anyone by the way off the dribble or
Off the catches passing the ball. Yeah, you talk about being able to pass the bus
It's very seldom you're going to draw and fouls you're gonna get you're gonna get all of that talent
In three guys pretty much equally across the board and I will give
Kyrie the edge in terms of his ability to finish but it's so it's yeah
It's so interesting to me like
So in physics they say nature abours and naked singularity meaning like there's a black hole which breaks the laws of nature
Right, and so you can't actually observe it directly like the universe won't let you that's what was the an actual big three KD
Harden and Kyrie was like a naked singularity the universe wouldn't allow it to exist
They had to hurt but it was it but but but I want to move on too fast. Yeah, but not to move on too fast
I will say
what I am seeing is
A tremendous change in effort which I know Jay Jay's makers. Yeah, yeah on on defensive side of the ball
That play by LeBron when he dove on the floor. I can guarantee you he's filling that today still at that age
But what that shows you is that's the that's the passion you're looking for you guys guys who
Definitely haven't made the money definitely haven't doesn't have the accolades
definitely doesn't have the the the accomplished mission things like that
That that are reluctant to do that then when you talk about having a guy that can close
To drive left going away from the double team creating a space to bit
You know how hard that shot is to make a 15 footer going left on the baseline right with point five seconds left
That's a tough shot by yourself with no money in the arena and nobody else on the floor and then
When you think about just
This is why I mean you talk about touch
The miss the miss to go off left and then to be able to put that you tell about the Austin Reeves free throw. Yeah, so
Again, that was like when you think I think of the three things from that game
LeBron's diving at a hundred years old laying out like that is nuts
Austin Reeves missing a free throw like and it works out like like you would draw it up
And Luca
After dropping 50 the other night goes for a 30 point triple double in a win against Denver
Yeah, that's huge. He's in a rhythm and obviously, but here's here's the other thing
Don't talk bad about
Aiden when he plays back talk good about him when he plays good as well and Aiden gave you're not stopping jokers period
You're not stopping the man. He's he's he is the guy
But the effort that he gave
Down the stretch you have to applaud that. What do you think? What are you?
100% Deandre and why I play when he when he says he does basically doesn't want to be clink of hell
Which would be an improvement on this Laker's team? He like a prime clink of clink of hell anyway
When he plays well, he deserves praise and I know that in the jj redic two men. I jj redic coach in his ass
But here's the I know
Talking about LeBron brings clicks talking about the Lakers brings brings clicks so somehow some way
Even during that effort the last few efforts people find a way to try to bring a negative perspective and I'm not being
I don't I don't have a team. I have I represent players on on pretty much every team the league
But I understand basketball and I like to talk basketball
But what I'm saying is when we have this good brand of basketball being played
Why go for the clickbait when you can actually give the flowers and say hey, that's the element everybody because sports fans are for the most part hate-based life forms
Well, let's let's be honest. Not this show, but well
Yeah, there is it you're an element of it. I'm not yeah, you're an element of it
I love my teams and I hate the other teams let's speaking of
Teams I guess not love or hate the nuggets are you are you concerned about Denver at all? No
From because they're keep losing a good teams. Yeah, Jamal merge and have the best game. Yeah, Peyton wases not back
Right, even though they
The Murray's had a great season
Yoke itch is there Aaron Gordon is when he's healthy is bawling
So so that's like when when those guys are on the floor together. Yeah, but Aaron Gordon's been in the lineup all year
I said when he's healthy yet, right, but what I'm saying is
At the end of the day, we're talking about regular season games. We're gonna see
Their seating is good. The the the leakers getting ready to go on a really tough road
Starting with I mean that was a tough home game. You got two in Houston. You go to Miami. You go to Detroit. These are gonna be tough games, but
We are at the point of the season when we got 15 14 games left. Yeah teams are gonna be everyone's fighting for their lives right now
This is when you're saying the nuggets are fighting for their lives
They have a mostly their stars are all healthy
And they lose and over time to the leakers and they just they've lost a lot of these tough games
Okay, see where a Yoke itch team when he has his crime partners available to him
You would think would be doing a little better than they've been doing recently the only thing I would say is
The reserve players did shoot the ball well, but you have to take your head off to the leakers
But the point I'm trying to make is it's the regular season
So I don't get all you think Denver is a title contender this year of course they are
So but how see I agree, but I would rank them out of the west
Look as I as I mentioned Van Vleet is still you know don't look like the the rockets are getting Van Vleet back
It's bite of the phone call we had with them on yourself. You don't know that if they had Van Vleet back with enough time
Running up to the playoffs
And had that least the route we don't know if it's a burner account from KD that you know that story from about a month ago
But I think that's caused enough disruption with that team plus not having Van Vleet
I'm taking Houston off of my list of teams, but you have to you have to nougat start
Yeah, right
Yeah, okay, see you have senatorio you have okay see to you have nougat's three
Yeah
In the end. Yeah when push comes to shove you're right. What took you so long to say?
Well only because the thing with Houston so I take them away
And the lake man the lake
I
Mean, I know it's a home game. It's an overtime game. I get it. I get it. Man if the Lakers could figure this out
Maybe they'd be my three. I don't know. Well, you just well and that when you again when you have that type of talent
You just have to be able to keep the game close. Yeah, where where
Any team can run into an issue is if if you if you
Want have to dig a hole to get back into playoff contention that takes a lot out of a team going into the playoffs
So that is a blessing not to do that
But then it comes down to matchups and also Luca
When you get a Luca knowledge if he's playing a losing brand of basketball, which he was for stretches this season hogging the ball
Getting himself high percentage shots everyone else is waiting around complaining to the ref not getting back on defense
Then you're like oh this team. No, they're not going anywhere when you start to see Luca playing a winning brand of basketball
sharing the ball more
Of course, he's still monopolizing the ball as he should when he's going well because he he's you know among the very very
That's the players of the game when you see him when you see Luca stop complaining and start getting back on defense
And and you see Lebron doing what he's doing and all and they start to click now that your whole perception of the Lakers changes
Because we've seen him take a Dallas team, you know
To the to the penultimate
You need to solid eight in your rotation to hopefully set a foul trouble and execute 99 out in the playoffs to win series
Then you need about a nine and a ten that based upon the matchups. You can be able to implement in different
Parts of the game in the lineup that help you with the matchups right so
Again, when you look at all these teams
If you have that great now you need to stay healthy and then obviously shots need to fall so and so forth. So
Again, there's parity in the league
Everyone has a chance some has a better chance than others and some has a puncher's chance and as you know
Mr. Boxing himself that anybody can be knocked out
Thunder beat the wolves
I think the spurs are the best team in basketball whenever you know especially if jalen Williams is not playing for the matchup
We had a very interesting comment yesterday. He said I'm really focusing on my body because I really want to win
MVP and I want to win defensive player the year and if that happens then that
You would think they would be in the finals
already
Who's the who do you think the best team in the west is right now? I say the spurs is it thunder spurs
I don't know. I don't you know. I don't really pick a best team in the west. I think that again
Based upon I'm watching the basketball to know
Is health and matchups if you can stay healthy throughout the playoffs and you can get the right matchups
You can get there
But again those those those those those
Those lights are different as each
As each series goes on those lights are definitely different. Yeah, and the spurs are ready for it though
Yeah, well here's the thing because the thunder did it last year they weren't ready for you know like they didn't take all the necessary steps

When I look at the thunder and I'll get into this in my in my get rich. Yes. Yes
It is time for get rich quit by the way. Is it yeah, it's time. I just think
We talk about the big three, right? Yeah, the big three has evolved the big three is not three
You know big name players anymore
The big through today's big three is president GM coach
Star player in the NBA in the NBA
That's where the big three is focused. Yeah, and when you had that
It kind of like spreads throughout the rest of the team when I watched that okay C team play
I'm changing their name so are you saying you would trade the second best player
In it in a big three situation for a team for a great team president
And you would trade the third best player for a great coach in other words you the big three for championship is that more than
It is three great. Well, well
First of all, it depends on who the second best player is if the second best player could possibly be a first
Best player like a Tatum or brown then yeah, he's in life there exceptions. Yeah, but if there is
Who you would say it's the second best player, but they're not at all NBA count them and players and the answer is yes, right
but
Okay, see is okay see IQ
When you watch okay see play
The the way they move the ball
Is
They got nine ten maybe eleven guys twelve time everyone on the team can play that actually knows how to play and more importantly
They play them right way like I saw Jalen Williams making plays the big feeling. Yeah, hard and Stein making plays that
They're not getting the ball looking to try to score the ball. They're getting the ball looking to
Make a play the right play not setting in the legal screen but but
Making a pass and a screen together where it's getting space for the shooter and now that guy trailing the shooter
Is so far away that by the time he even gets to try to close out the guys actually going the other way because the balls already going through the hoop
When you have that and you have a closer
In a Shay who just continues to put pressure on the rim continues and and can create space
The chip England I'm seeing it. I'm seeing what he's
Adding to that team. You know, he's on that bench and came from from San Antonio
The way they shoot the ball
Every single time
Yeah, you're kind of talking me especially if if they had Jalen what if they had both Jalen Williams
The issue you're kind of talking me into the and then the key to the thought
To okay see a little bit the only thing is
The spurs have the same thing. No, listen
They got things they they and they have Wembee who I think is the best player in the game
I was just focusing on because we mentioned the third the thunder and the wolves game and I watched the game
But what I'm saying is
That high level basketball
Jeremy Kane
You add him at the trade deadline think about it. There's teams that didn't make any moves
This team who feel who you would think has it all figured out
Wanted to figure it even out and it feels like they're cheating like how are you able to get that guy?
How come no one else got that guy? It's called having draft passes
But but they want it this team that has it all figured out
wants to even more so figure it out
It's like that's like an honor student
I used to you know you get it you don't get a hundred on the test when you're honest to you get like a hundred and five
I know you never been down that road max. I have but
That that's the thing, you know and when you talk about the spurs against it's the same thing
Wembee is like three players in one. Yeah, he that's crazy, but I want to get back to your big three thing you get rich quick
The big three and the NBA team president
Coach coach star player star player in other words that's better in fact if you have those three things than having of so-called big three
Maybe two franchises players and one all star, but do you know why it's better? Why let me tell you why it's better
Because it doesn't affect your cap
Mm-hmm to the point to where you can't have flexibility to continue to
Make the team better right the GM and the coach cost nothing on the cost of against your cat. So
I want to I'm thinking about this now
Are you mad you didn't think of that? No, I think it's good. I like it. Um, but I'm just saying you know
I'm trying to I'm trying to integrate it into into the way I think about the leaks because Jacobi was jealous
Baseball is it yeah Jacobi was jealous. We need to have a Jacobi is jealous segment because we know we're on to something if Jacobi's jealous. Absolutely. Yeah
Baseball is a GM's leak the most important guy in the building is a general manager
He's got to acquire the best assets for the lowest price or just put it all together
Draft the best prospects, etc
The NFL has usually been a coach's league most important guys the head coach
Yes, for sure, but the giants had Jackson Dart and they lost almost every game now they have John Harbaugh
And it just feels already completely different. They'll at least be 500 and
people always thought of the NBA as a stars league
If you don't have a guy who's at least in the conversation for best player in the game good luck winning a championship
Yes, is it still that way or are you saying something's fundamentally changed because
Well because it might be that it's a team president league now
But according to your logic right because the team president you're still going to have to find the star
But he might be able to find the right star who's maybe undervalued somewhere else and build around him
Install the right coach. I think it's a proof is in the pudding
When you look at team presidents
And you look at really good coaches
And you look at star players you see success. Yeah, I don't have to even name a team. They're all out there
But again
When you when you are star heavy you can be star heavy
As long as being star heavy comes with structure
You got to understand something about being a star
A star can come with two different types of mentalities
A me mentality or we mentality
If a star comes with a me mentality, you cannot win with that person
It don't matter and I don't care what what gift wrapping paper you wrap it in and what bow you put on it
It's still a bad gift. It does not matter
If a star or stars come with structure
Different dynamic going back to the Miami Heat team
And structure
They did when that when it was Bosch when it was Wade when it was
LJ and and and obviously you added guys like Shane baddie you added guys like Ray Allen
You had guys like Chalmers
You don't is
But they had structure right so you saw it on the floor every night
That it the younger you go with this right the younger your stars are quite naturally
The you lack experience
Right naturally because you just spurs right now. It's just part of it
So now if you have a young star study group
You really have to lean in on
Because it's if you're not going to be able to lean in on the experience
Then you have to lean in on structure
character
IQ
Right
How great of a teammate are you?
culture
Because that matters because normally when you're young you haven't gotten paid yet
You you haven't made as many all star teams you wanted to make
Maybe you had dreams of getting a signature shoe
There's a lot of me things within being a young team
So if you can fight against that
That's scary you want to do an Oscars reaction real quick which I didn't watch by the way
Sure, I did you watch the Oscars. Yes, I did
The only person I know actually sits through the Oscars
Well, I didn't sit all the way through but I watched enough of it to see
Michael B
Jordan yeah, how great is it he could win anything he's in
Yeah, he's been he's been actually the first thing he's ever from hard. I you know, I was with him last night and I said listen
I gave him a big hug because I thought
Damn, I felt like you know, I mean I grew up watching him. Yeah, Michael B Jordan from hardball
When he had the scene where he was telling Keanu Reeves, he just want to I just want to play man and and Keanu couldn't
necessarily
Commit to it and he had to jump to gate to Michael in the wire
The duo of him and Ryan Kugler starting with few fruitville station all the way to
Panther to to creed
To this I was in a scene. I was in a couple things with
And it was just a great night and all the awards. I mean
sinners won
I didn't see
What from one matter after another after another episode was sinners was quite good. That was fantastic
Let me let me tell you something. This is what I don't like about the Academy Awards. Mm-hmm number one
I remember seeing once a show that was reacting
to the media's reaction to the
To the Oscar winners. It was like on e-network or something back in the day
And I thought to myself what a racket
Because film is there's a medium right so it's a form of media
You can say it's an art form too, but it's form of media and they give an award to themselves
And then the media reacts to an award that the media gives itself
And then you have a show that's analyzing the reaction of the media
To an award that the media gives itself. It's like it's all this content created out of whole cloth
Right like it's they're just inventing it so it's like genius in a way
But what bothers me about the Academy Awards is the he for it's totally subjective
And the people deciding aren't smart enough to make these decisions
Well, I like it just like MV he's the look
I'll give you an example rich you ever see the nutty professor to the clumps. Yes, okay
Why wouldn't Eddie Murphy win the Academy Award that I cannot say by the way he has a scene Eddie Murphy has a scene
About where he's playing the father and the mother
And they're discussing like his sexual dysfunction the father sexual dysfunction
And it's such a real scene between two characters
There's so much like humanity and everything in it and connection and feeling in it
That he should have won best actor best actress best supporting actor and best supporting actress because he played so many characters
He was great
So but they he would never get an award for that
You know why because the people who vote are so insecure because they're not smart enough to know actually who to vote for
They don't have the capacity for it that they would never vote for Eddie Murphy because they would think that the way other people would see them
You know, they they wouldn't be taken seriously he actually talked about down this doc
I think it was something he said during his
I mean, I can't say during his heyday because it's only it seemed like since I've been boring. He's only had a hey
Yeah, that's right. Every day is that every day was hey, so I don't know but but it was something he said but I agree with you
Again, I watched it was some really good movies. I watched one battle after another in Tiana
Was a good and yeah, and yes, it was great. Sean Penn won best supporting actor. He was phenomenal in that
Noah bomb back had a movie out to see our nose was nominated
I wanted to go see that and I missed it in the theater. I'll order it great director
But Frankenstein won some stuff think best costume was that the bride of Frankenstein. I think I saw an ad for it
What was it Frank? No, it was Frankenstein was regular Frank pop, you know
Dragon okay
But see so it takes centers centers was
It was it was a fun vampire flick, but it also had deeper meaning it was deep
You know about about exploitation and you know of violence against black people and how black culture
It was a lot of react to it and and form their own way of resisting it, but I think about a movie like
Way back in the day
die hard die hard the year that came out looked it up before the show
I was curious because of course it would never be nominated because again the people are not smart enough and too insecure
Who vote on this stuff to know actually what the best film is the rain man one best picture rain man's a really good picture
Rain man was incredible. It was not as good as die hard
Not I know they're different genres, but well, it's hard to say it's perfect movie shot for shot
Rich I should as one better after another. I should have minored in film I took enough film class in college, right
If you said apply the eight elements of classics and you could teach a film class using nothing but die hard
It is perfect beginning to end
But of course, and it's a better movie object like if you any by any measure a better movie than rain man
Which was excellent one gets the academy award one's not nominated because it's the thing I'm talking about
There's because people would feel like they be looked at a certain way not taken seriously if they gave it to an action movie
You know right so anyway the upshot is I don't watch the academy awards. That's listen is is
It's definitely something that you have to want to be into yeah
But we live in L.A. No and everyone seems to be into it. Yeah, I mean dang went to bristle farm
Just a he couldn't even find a tortilla chip in salsa. Yeah academy award me
He definitely not no he he got me without absolutely, but not he didn't watch it, but guess what get me with a notch
You also couldn't get no chips and saucy either because everyone who was watching it
But all the chips and salsa out of the damn rest you know grocery store me asking this when you were in Cleveland before you got to L.A.
Were you watching the academy awards sometimes? Yeah, I was watching up until they gave the academy award
When I was a kid up until they gave it to
Dancing dances with wolves over goodfellas and I was out but but see listen
there's
There is a degree a degree of difficulty. Yeah point that you gave and I listen I understand it
We were going for the obvious I get it. I would have voted for good fellas too, but the point is
Michael B Jordan
Makes you there's two goats named Michael Jordan now. Yeah, Michael B Jordan's great
He's never been less than great in anything. I've ever seen him but he did join the league class just very few guys
That have an Oscar that look like Michael B Jordan. Right. It's Denzel
Let me see if I can name him Michael B now Denzel
Jamie
Sydney
Yeah, and the heat of the night did he win the academy award for swittaker for swittaker
Will Smith will Smith won an academy award. Yes
What do you win an academy award for you? I mean, that's some elite that's some elite company. It is like to go from hardball
to
To that that that's pretty strong, but it was it was it was good last night. I thought this I thought was some really cool speeches and and
Conan O'Brien was a good it's good. Yeah, what do you like to get to emails?
We have to emails are ready. Wow. Oh, yeah, we breeze through that breeze through it, man. Yeah. We're over and out. Let's do it. We're an overtime
Hello, Max and Rich. I'm golly all the way from Morocco. I love the show
Always been a max fan, but this show may be discovering like rich more and more
I'm a maths major aspiring to be a sports journalist. I have two totally different questions
One is more for rich, I guess the finances of sports
First week of NFL free agency numbers keep going up every year rich says
That he's for the players, but do you all see a tipping point where the money salaries are just going to plateau?
Doesn't that have to do with really the size of the content TV contracts mostly?
I hope not because I won't be able to tip when I go to restaurants
All right, too, I think I'm one of the few fans who does not like the goat debates
I watch a lot of sports. I love sports history
I think there were so many different rules changes in play tendencies styles
The only correct debate is who the goat of each era any intra-era can enter error comparison is flawed in a logical what do you all think?
I listen I agree. I hate to go to debates. I love to go to this
I mean look make make a hard choice. Stop copying out everybody. No, I mean listen
There's there's goats in each sports there's goats in each era of each sport
You know, it's like and here's what I will say
You have all these people saying who isn't the goat right and you have all these
Players critiquing who's who's not the goat they're giving them this who the goat
I want to come up with something you should not be able to say
Who's the goat or who isn't the goat if you're not in goat contention?
I hate that because frequently
That way they'll end this is not going to come from the participant. You just like to debate don't max
Yeah, that's probably true, but also I like the it captures one's imagination because when you have
Two all-time grates and you're it forces you to do hard thinking and it's interesting in terms of comparative analysis
To say actually who do you think is better and what's your criteria?
How did you apply it as a consistent who has the best case etc? I love that stuff
Okay, so who's your goat in what sport
basketball mj
Okay, and I just want to and football you have to give it to Tom Brady. I do it reluctantly some a giants fan
um
In in baseball it's Babe Ruth. It's not that one's not difficult
But to but to go back and answer
Boxing sugary raven to go back to answer the other guy's question. I think
I think live events is something that
um is going to continue to grow. Yeah, I think we're getting back into the live event space
But the finances of things
is always challenging obviously these contracts are
Are growing in a very rapid pace the TV deal is done so we have that
but
We may add more teams. So I don't I think
anytime you get to a place where
You're starting to see
Hell we could be in a place where we see one year 100 million dollar deal
Maybe eventually we'll get there is inflation if you get there and then just like anything else you always adjust but
Long as it's not a work stoppage. I'm okay. We can figure the rest out. Alec from Los Angeles
Hey max and rich i'm sure it's safe to say that Tim Duncan and Dirk Navitsky are the two best power forwards of all
Who'd you rather have on your team if you're in the NBA finals and why
I
Navitsky was great. I think Duncan is clearly the greatest power forward of all time
I'm gonna say Duncan because of the ability to play both sides of the ball
Yeah, I mean
Navitsky in the modern game
And he had the modern but dirk's my man though
But I think I think dirk was even say Tim. Yeah, like dirk is usually not put in the top 10 players of all time
And Duncan is frequently put in the top 10 players of all time any position
Yeah, and dirk was really good, but I was also a power forward. Duncan was both. He was a five four and a five four and a five hundred
A really good four and a five. Yeah, if you wanted to say pure power forwards pure fours
Maybe maybe it is dirk pure fours who else there's ad there's dirk there's kg
And kd is a three ain't that putting Lebron to four Lebron's a three or a one or whatever or two or four or five. Yeah
Yeah, yeah, you could argue if you take Duncan and say he's not a pure four. He's a four five. You could argue dirk
Yeah, but I'm taking two. Yeah
