Reaction to the latest on Jalen Duren.

0:00And did a a summer day of remembrance and always a bit of a reset. 248, 539, 97, 97. Hey, we got lines predictions coming in and a whole bunch just came through. But you had the great question, how do you know it's football season? Like what are the telltale signs that your senses? No, it's football season. You mentioned the smells. They're great smells that are company football. A grass and there's a different there's just a different scent in the air than what there was two weeks ago. Yeah, for me, it's crisp fall weather. It's going outside and you've got a hoodie on. So not this. And it's cold. Yeah. I mean, I love it when and the leaves start to turn it all that. Here's an interesting one from D in Southfield. Chris Stapleton and Snoop Dogg coming in the air tonight. Which is the money knife football thing they do, which I love.

1:02There you go. I love it. 248, 539, 97, 97. It's carry under with no longer yellows. I always like that. I do like carry yelling at us. Yeah. I don't. I didn't notice her on the Wednesday night game, but I wasn't watching from the very beginning. God, I was cracking up Noah Eagle who did the Michigan Western game. And then obviously traversed to Australia to do the game last night. I did not. I did not go to Australia. No, you did not. You're right here. I will be at the big house tomorrow, Michigan and Oklahoma a helmet game for sure. Let's get back to your phone calls. We got a Joe and Rochester Hills. Hi, Joe. How's it going guys? What's up? So I just want to touch based on the dirt and contract things. So I don't know if you want some money because he doesn't feel respected. He wants to be on a top paid setters in the league to prove to whoever that he is. One of the ones, but I don't think that the money should be what the sides. I mean, you see Brunson taking pay cuts, one B and they've been in the finals or conference finals.

2:09Multiple times in the past couple of years. So I don't I feel like he doesn't feel respected. And that's why he wants the money. But coming from the fan base of Detroit, I feel like everybody in here deep down respects him. I mean, look, we've been through the past five years. And he, him, a star and or not, a man in K totally changed their round and changed the culture of the team. And it is a star. Yeah. Yeah. Right. The first time. But yeah, they have changed it. And this, this team has gone from bottom of the barrel to top of the east in just a couple of years. And obviously things are a lot different now with the landscape and the Eastern Conference for this upcoming season. But he was a big part of the turnaround. His performance and the playoffs was so subpar. I think it shocked everybody. I think there's one or two things happen. Either A, the agent oversold him on what he was going to get or B, the pistons adjusted their offer based on the postseason performance. Or it could be both.

3:09It could be both. And the reality is, I don't know what argument can be made when you can go to the open market. Now, when you go to the open market as a restricted free agent, the fact that you're restricted and Detroit can match any offer might tamp down interest. It might have teams backing off a little bit and saying, well, there's no point. And there's only so many teams that can pay you. Apparently Sacramento is super interested, according to this story. But, but Detroit doesn't want to do a sign and trade with Sacramento, which they don't have to do. Like if Sacramento doesn't have anything they want, but this story is breaking today is the athletic reporting that Jalen Durin wants over 200 million. The pistons have, have stopped their offers at 190 over five years and the 190 range. And the 190 range. Yes. And he wants over to 200 million. And now he's really strongly considering taking the qualifying offers. We approached the deadline three week in three weeks. And if he takes qualifying offer, that's only 9.6 for one year. And then he becomes an unrestricted free agent.

4:13That's on himself. It would be a highly unusual move, but he could do it. Let's go to Terrellan Detroit. Hello Terrellan. Hey, how you doing, guys? What's up? Well, I'm calling. I mean, Durin has a lot of upswing. He's a great talent. But at best to me, my personal opinion, he's just a good role player, maybe great role player. He reminds me of Horace Grant with the Bulls, but without the jump shot. And I mean, to ask for the match to me is absurd. I mean, one thing about Detroit teams, we have Cays, who's ready right now. Cays is super. He's ready right now. We built a good core, but we have to adjust. And to me, Detroit always waste on development. That's how we want to win. We want to develop these players where in this league and in this day and age, you have to go out and get those players. Man, I would trade, Durin. Let's get what we can get. He doesn't have a low post move, a guarantee move that we can count on in the post. That's why Cays was wore out during the playoffs. We need a player who can at least create. If you're going to pay that kind of money, you have to be able to score in the fourth quarter.

5:15You have to be able to get to the free throw line. You have to be able to execute at the free throw line, not just put backs and those type of things. When Miyama, he was down in Houston this summer where everybody goes who wants to improve their low post game. They link up with our chemo lodge wine and they get some type of move. They work on their game. Durin, to me, he spent the summer pounding and talking about money. So when you talk about improving and getting to that next level, especially after that performance, you have to execute in your game with that little things, the extra things. I'm not saying that he couldn't develop that, but Cays is ready right now. We don't have four years away on a mere time sin to develop a bafford jump shot and all these type of things. Well, everything that you're talking about, I only disagree with one thing you said and the great thing about, and I'll get to it, but the great thing about Durin at the age of 22 is you really have time to improve your game. You really have time to develop and have a more consistent low post move. That's why I have no issue with the, I hope that the pistons can bring him back.

6:18I think it's, I think, I say one thing. I was just saying, okay, you're absolutely right. I was just saying, though, the man the money while you, while we're waiting for you to improve, you know, you have to improve and then you're going to get the money. Well, that's, that's taken the qualifying offer and saying, I'm going to come back next year as a free agent and I'm going to blow away your $190 million offer from somebody else. The one thing I disagree was I would trade him and get what you can get. I think you only trade him for market value. Like I don't, like you sound, maybe I misinterpreted that, but you have to get something significant back. You don't trade Jalen Durin to quote, get what you can get and maybe that's not what you meant, but I'm not selling low. I'm only selling high and if, and if, and if he won't, if there's no trade to be had, so be it. Play out the season, take Durin's contract into free agency, the money you had to your market for Durin and go get a player. No, I agree. You have to get some kind of market value for it and there should be.

7:18But I can't believe that this has gone on this long. I really can't believe that his agent is steering him in this direction based on his production. Great regular season and nowhere near that in the post season. And this is where you're at. Take the deal. It's because you're not going to get better from the pistons. Two, four, eight, five, three, nine, nine, seven, nine, seven, back to some football talk. More predictions on this lion season prediction Friday.
