Fellas, good morning. How y'all doing? It's good, bro. I'm pissed. I'm good. You're lying, man. I'm not lying, bro. I swear y'all not.

I can't wait till we do off-the-course sneaker shopping, man. That's going to be a time. That's a pretty conversation. Yeah, let's do it then. Okay. We swear y'all not. I can't wait till we do off-the-course sneaker shopping, man. That's going to be a time. Let's do it then. We'll be had for sure. Let's get to it, man. Last night, Luka returned to Dallas yesterday. Let's show the video, man. I told y'all. The tribute. This was crazy,

man. What double team? He about to cry. My boy was going through it last night. Damn, man. The Lakers didn't do this for AD. He about to cry My boy was going through it last night I ain't Damn man The Lakers didn't do this for AD They did? No

That's fire Shout out to the production team I don't understand why that make you cry though That shit been a lot to him bro I ain't gonna lie I damn near cried I'm lying That shit meant a lot to him bro I ain't gonna lie I damn near cried When I was in Atlanta I'm lying Come on bro

That meant a lot to him Oh yeah Rudy Oh yeah come here Rudy He was hurt man Oh yeah Pop your shit Yeah Can't fucking guard me

He's like I can't believe They traded me I'm about to cook y'all Them is his people too, bro. They love him. Yeah, man. He turned them tears into buckets last night. 45 in a revenge game.

Lakers took care of business yesterday. 1-12, 2-97. Man, Luka went crazy with 45, 8-6. Brown hooped out as well with 27-7. Najee Marshall taking advantage of opportunity with 23-8. And then he had 13-11-6 yesterday. Damn, only 13-80. That's fucked up.

Yeah, man. It wasn't nothing he could have did yesterday, boy. That was all Luka gained for sure. But, man, to see that yesterday lets me know that Luka really, really wanted to be a Maverick for a long time, man. Yeah. And I think it's just the way they handled it. I just woke up, traded.

Like, I've been killing for y'all. I just took y'all to the finals. It's just a lot, bro. Yeah. They kept zooming in on your boy, too. Nico. Nico. He was in the cut.

They started to chance up again. Man, my boy can't even enjoy the game. Oh, he should have watched it from the crib. He shouldn't even have been there. I don't even know why he would have been there. Why pull up, bro? What's crazy is, hey, bro, I work here. It don't matter, bro.

Enjoy your family, bro. I'm bigger than you. I have to be here, bro. No, you don't. This is my job. No, you don't have to be in the building, bro. I think the ownership would have been okay with you staying home. That's a well-oiled machine in Dallas, man.

And what's so crazy is the ownership probably happy. They're like, yeah, Nico's taking all the slack for this. Like, we ain't the ones who pushed the button on this. And we set the pick, bro. Whole time, we set the pick. They lined him up. Everybody's lining him up to a crazy extension because his career just got ruined from that situation. He's going to be the downfall or he's going to be the fall for that even though it wasn't

his call. He's going to go down as the person that made the worst trade in NBA history. Yeah. Especially if the Lakers get some chips. Luka go get some chips for him. I just hope the Mavs stay afloat because if they bad, that's going to be, that's terrible for the city. I mean, no offense to AD.

I think he's a really good player, but AD what, 31, 32? Yeah. So, he still got some prime years left, but he known to be injured. So, he damn near going to miss next year. Whew. And it just fell apart when Kyrie got hurt. Yeah.

It just fell apart. Because if Luka was, like, 32, I can understand, bro. He's still a youngster, bro. Well, he's, like, 25, 26. Yes, bro. That's ridiculous. He's going to be doing what bro. He's like 25, 26. Yes, bro. That's ridiculous. He's going to be doing what he's doing right now for at least the next five years. Damn.

At least. Look at those stats. 28, 8, and 8. Sorry, Nico. That's a tough trade, bro. It was for you, Nico. I know. Can we go back to his page, please, one more time, please?

Because I ain't even looking at none of the stats. I still want to laugh at, you know what I'm saying? Get out of there like Magic Johnson man Magic Johnson left when it got wicked hey one of my favorite

interviews of all time he said you know the future of the team that I ain't gonna be here and then he traded Zubac for sure shout out to Magic

Legend man Lakers win one of the next two games they're blocking the third seed let's go ahead and see these the next two games. They're blocking the third seed. Let's go ahead and see the playoff standings, man. About to the end of the season.

All the hypotheticals are going to be out the window real soon. All right, man. We're looking right now. Potential second-round matchup with the Rockets. But the first-round matchup. Yeah, I said potential second round matchup. The first round matchup is the good one. It could be the Clippers.

I mean, the Warriors. Arguably, it could be the Clippers, Warriors, Grizzlies. Who do they want? The Lakers. Everybody want the Grizzlies, bro. Okay, they hunting the Grizzlies right now? Yeah. Man, that's going to be crazy, man.

We talking about, you know what I'm saying, the Lakers possibly getting to the Western Conference Finals. We know that two through four is always switching up. But best case scenario for them, man, they get the, you know what I'm saying, like you said, you get the Grizzlies first round, and then you get the Rockets. I'm not going to say that's a cakewalk, but that's a favorable walk for them to get to the Conference Finals.

Yeah, it is. I think we all be disappointed if they didn't make it to the conference finals. Most definitely. It's crazy how it's panning out for them, bro. They can really make the finals, bro, on the sneak. And if they make the finals after that Luka trade... That just take Luka to some whole other... Yeah, that's going to make Niko... Niko's going to

have to quit. He's going to have to quit, bro. Niko's going to have to quit. He's going to have to move from Dallas, too. They're going to try to find him. I'm being funny about that, bro. That's... He's going to have to quit, bro. He's going to have to quit. He's going to have to move from Dallas, too. They're going to try to fire him. I'm being funny about that, bro. That's... He's going to be treated like dog shit. He's going to have to get out of that city, bro. D-Man in the Supershirt asked if Luka wins the chip with only half a season, is he a bigger Lakers legend than AD?

Yes. Yes, bro. Yes. Unfortunately, yes. Yes. Because when AD was on the Lakers, I'm sorry, that's my guy, but I didn't feel like they was going to win the chip. I mean, I felt like they was a cool team, but this year I felt like they was a cool team. But now I think they can win this thing, bro. They got a chance. I don't know if they can beat the Celtics, but they can make the finals, bro.

Yeah. You look at all the turmoil that team had early on, too. I mean, we started off the year with D-Lo being the starting point guard of the Lakers. A lot of things have changed on that team, for sure. All the trades have taken place. They transformed the team over a whole year. And if they get to the finals, that crazy it's crazy bro ron palinka just about to sign another 10-year extension yeah hey they had smut on his name all offseason they said lakers not making

the moves under underachieving we got the move of them all coming don't worry about it he said don't you worry you made the move of a lifetime bro big joker brought brought you Luca man that is crazy man get well soon to the math shout out to the Lakers moving on Warriors took a loss yesterday to the Spurs wrote a clip HB to OJ I told y'all game watch out Jim Wow should have took the lay. You took the spurn yesterday. I did. I've seen this happening. Bang, bang. You seen Harrison Bars in the walk-off?

What niggas be saying? Matchup problems. Wait. Hey, D. You got to watch CP. Watch CP. CP like, that's a fucking foul. Watch.

No, no, watch. When he pushing him. That's a foul. He be on bullshit. Oh, he was so bitchy. Yeah, he was straight to the rim. He was straight to the rim. Yo, bitch ass. That nigga had a pocket.

Chris Bostrom disrespectful. That's a foul. Oh, man. Good defense, though, Jim. Foul. That's a a pocket. Chris Paul's so disrespectful. That's a foul. Oh, man. Good defense, though, Jim. Foul. That's a tough make. That's a hell of a shot. Bitches, he went straight to the red.

That's a foul. Damn, man. That leg was a smack, y'all. I told y'all. Man. Bitches. He went straight to the red. Don't worry.

I got another one for y'all today. It's cool. Chris Paul is crazy, man. 1-14, 1-11 loss yesterday for the Warriors. Von Castle bought out with 21-5. HB, old school Harrison Barnes had 20-4.

Steph had 38-3. And Jimmy had 28-7. Man, the Warriors will make the postseason, but they're trying to avoid the play-in, man. If they would have won last night, that would have helped

solidify them in the spot. But now, uh-oh. They're trying to get top six seed, man. Let's go back to the matchups all right they gotta do the play and of course you'll have warriors mavericks and then you'll have temple wolves and kings now if they say as is right just go to your top eight right there uh warriors at two is that favorable for them against the Rockets? Yeah.

Okay. That's a matchup they'll be looking for? I don't think anybody's mad about being a seven seed. Any of these teams, I think they're really comfortable like, oh, we play the Rockets. Yeah, the Rockets is good,

but I feel like they all comfortable beating them in the playoffs, bro. I'm saying the Warriors, Temple Wolves, Kings and Mavericks, I don't see them. Yeah. I don't see it. And respect to the Rockets, have a hell of a year about like you said i don't think the fear factor

is there as it is for the lakers or is it for the thunder in those situations even the nuggets to an extent because you still got to deal with yoke man could be a hell of a match-up though man i think the rock is going to show up in the playoffs i don't know what they're going to do how far they're going to go but i don't think they're going to be as easy of a walk over everybody acting like they are right now they're not going to be i mean cuz they have nothing to lose they a young group like they I told you like they process will speed up like they didn't think they were gonna be this good yeah so since that process was sped up they like we playing with house money really yeah we can make a run in these playoffs we

only gonna get better yeah arguably our best player he ain't came shoot yet twin you have to be ready to play them though because they going to play hard and they going to score some points, bro. They going to guard though. That's what I like about them. They going to guard. But this could be a coming out party for Jalen Green though.

Yeah, this is where you make your name. Yeah, he can have a moment like this. This is that moment. Donovan Mitchell that Jamal Murray moment. There we go. He can have that. I mean, because he on that verge. He already got that second contract. Now it's time to be an all-star. He got the money. Now it's time for you to move up to that all-star rank.

He signed a beautiful deal with a three-year deal. He going to have a moment here, play better next year, opt out, whatever the time is, opt out, and get that super max. Opt out, re-up. Like you said, Jalen Green having a hell of Supermax. I've got to re-up. Like you said, Jalen Green having a hell of a year. We know we talked about he said maybe he could score more, but listen, number two in the West, averaging a dub plus,

you're doing your thing for sure. No, no, he hooping now. Yeah, 21-5. I ain't mad at that at all. You're playing with other good players on your team too. Yeah, he hooping. Shouts to Jalen Green. Now this Warriors team, obviously,

stepping Jimmy Carey to low last night pause. Who is the third option on the team that needs to step up for them to be successful in the playoffs? I don't think they got a third option. You don't think so? When it comes offensively. So, it's going to have to be by committee? Yeah. BP got a hit.

Kameelah is going to have to play well. It's going to have to be collective, bro. That's the only problem that I have with the Warriors. They don't have Jimmy having a bad night, Steph having a bad night. They don't have nobody really that you can depend on. Like, BP can make a shot here and there, but I don't depend on him.

Kaminga. Moses Moody. Yeah. Draymond's not really a scorer, so you can't really depend on him. He going to help you defensively, obviously, but offensively,

he can only round eight or nine points a game. He'll, yeah, they ain't got no... They don't got no solidified third option. And that's what they're going to have to address in the offseason. Yeah, Kameka's going to have to go crazy. But he really can't score like that. They need that 15 every night.

They need it, but he blew it too. Should have signed that deal. Signed that deal. Yeah. It's unfortunate that he got hurt because, like, respectfully a lot of that 15 was early in the season when they was going through some stuff. They had It's unfortunate that he got hurt because, like, respectfully, a lot of that 15 was early in the season when, you know, they was going through some stuff.

They had a rough patch where he was on one, you know what I'm saying, getting it off. But, like you said, that deal probably going to change now this offseason for sure. Yeah, you're looking more like a four-year 80, my boy. Damn. He can't get 100 M's? 15.

100 M's? Four-year 100 M's? Especially with today's market I was about to say You never know today I mean you can But this what This what Dylan Brooks was doing

Yeah I'm going to compare you To Dylan Brooks at this point I almost rather have Dylan Brooks I definitely would I definitely would Yeah Battle test it

You're probably going to Contribute the same offensively I'm just saying like Let me think of somebody Aaron Neesmith All these dudes around this I mean they got they deal a little earlier grant but I'll be topping I hope we got a very favorable deal right that's that's yeah he that kind of person that look like an OB topping to me. Yeah. Yeah. We got two great wings.

What OB was averaging last year? Boy, above 10. Not super crazy. Not 15. Four-year, 54. Yeah. 58. 80.

It ain't looking too crazy to me. Man, that's tough. 20 a year? You always talk about it. You say, if the deal's in front of Man, that's tough. 20 a year? You always talk about it. You say, if the deal's in front of you, take the money, get that bread. Take the money. Yeah, it's kind of, yeah,

because when you bet on yourself, you're coming. And that's in 20 minutes. You playing in they face, so yeah. That's in 20 minutes, he's just killing. That's half the game. Obe be hooping, bro. I told you he have moments where he just be,

he don't be there on defense, but outside of that, Obe be showing up. The last year in you he had moments where he just beat, he don't beat on defense, but outside of that, Opie be showing up. Last year in the playoffs, he hooping. He played 24 minutes. I didn't know he could shoot this good.

He be knocking it down, bro. Bro, and he's unconscious. I respect it. He hit like six threes the other day. I'm like, dang. Yeah, he's had a great second half.

A great second half in the season for sure. Yeah, Opie, he's a little fired his money, but I mean, Kaminga, you know, to each his own. I mean, somebody might be in love with Kaminga's potential more than they was with Obi. So he might be able to get 100, but.

So I imagine if you're trying to run it back with Steph next year with Jimmy, you got to use Kaminga, maybe a little bit of draft capital on what their situation is. Is that a tool to get another player or to get another, you know what I'm saying, offensive resource for this team to go forward? Yeah, they need another offense. They need somebody they can rely on. Third piece. Unless they just feel like he was hurt

and he actually can be the third piece. I don't know. Well, for the Spurs, man, obviously, lost the two best players in injury this year. Next year, which I think the Spurs still going to be? Through the roof. Top five in the woods.

Man. Let's go ahead. They're right there at 13. Which I think the Spurs still going to be. Through the roof. Top five in the West. Man. Let's go ahead. They're right there at 13. If they get KD. We always have a fun conversation. I hear B.H. and I always tell us, player away. He tired of all that moving around.

But they that one team that they are literally probably a player away. They're okay with the Spurs getting somebody. Okay. Yeah, if they give a. They give a sudden pick. They give a castle. I mean, Vassell, they give a Vassell

and the rest of them dudes like Harrison Barnes, Vassell, Johnson, and some picks to get KD, I'd be hype. I wish they can keep

a Harrison Barnes though, boy, that'd be nice. You need a vet like that. But you can't keep him. I know you can't, but they could, boy,

that'd be nice. How many more years is left on his deal? He got one more year left? Is he a smart contract? Because that would be really an indicator. If he got one year,

we probably know that he should be gone for sure. Nah, he's gone. Man. Shout out to Harrison Barnes, man. We talk about this all the time.

People don't give him the respect he deserves, bro. Champion. UNC legend. 12-year vet. He on that. Wiggins always going to get a dub regardless of where he at.

He's going to chill. Be quiet. Stay out of the way. Be-year vet. He on that. Wiggins always going to get a dub regardless of where he at. He's going to chill. Be quiet. Stay out of the way. Be a great teammate. Great player off the court. Person off the court. Say everything right. He ain't going to get on no podcast.

He ain't going to be shooting no guns. He ain't going to joke with us. Now, look at this contract. Yeah. They're going to have to get Off that contract for sure What are you making? Nothing too crazy What 12?

Three Three years 54 Boy Keep a bag boy Boy did it on the sneak Boy Damn he ran that up In the NBA

First win post-Mike Malone era, man. Took care of the Kings, 124-116. Christian Brown bought out with 25. Yoke had 20, 12, and 11. Zach Levine still on the high streak with 27 and 11.

DeRozan had 22, 4, and 4. Let's go ahead and blow up the clip, man. They got to talk to Yoke yesterday about the new coaching situation. Yeah, so in summary, he said, yeah, I knew a little bit before, but the fuck was I supposed to do about it? That's what that was. So, yeah, they made a decision. They let me know.

Fuck it, we ball. Yeah. I told y'all he don't care about that shit. Yeah, bro, just keep shooting the ball. I'm here. He probably called Mike malone like sorry coach love you thank you for everything yeah he probably like keep going joker keep hooping yeah i mean what else can i do what do you want me to do it is what it is yeah i get mad about to bring you back

yeah i don't think they realize that nba players really have no power the only one that got power is lebron that's it bro the only power you really have no power. The only one that got power is LeBron. That's it, bro. The only power you really have is what you can do. Like, if Yoki just started calling it a drama in the locker room, saying, like, I don't want to be here no more, that's the only thing he can control, what he can control. Yeah.

Like, you can say all you want. Like, if you don't get no players in here for me, I'm going to leave. Well, you're under contract. We can only trade you. No, that's true. It's like Jimmy. Jimmy's like, alright, I ain't happy no more. Okay, I ain't playing. Okay, we're just going to fine you.

You have no control, really. That's crazy. Like you said, if you don't really cause a major fuss or really mess up some things in the locker room, you just got to deal with it, bro. But I don't think he's a person who's going to do that. I don't think he's even going to try to opt out. He probably be like, I'm just going to play, really messed up some things in the locker room. You just got to deal with it, bro. Yeah. But I don't think he's a person who's going to do that. I don't think he's even going to try to opt out. He probably be like, I'm just going to play.

And if I get on my nerves, I'm going to just dip anyway. Yeah, I'm just going to go back home. Because it costs too much to cause a problem. Like, Jimmy was getting taxed, bro. Yeah. He might not care, but he still was getting taxed, bro. Facts. Man, that's crazy.

I mean, even though they on them crazy deals, that's still a bridge you missing for sure. Yeah, facts. But the thing that's beautiful. No even though they on them crazy deals that's still a bridge you missing for sure yeah but the thing that's beautiful nah I shouldn't say beautiful it's kind of fair I should say unfair but fair in a way it's like people

that's from Europe overseas they come over here and make all the money but they ain't happy no more they're going to go back home and play and get paid

because they got leagues that they can play in yeah we don't have that yeah we don't got that so if you don't make it here that's it you done you got to go over there if you don't make it there you gotta come back here you still yeah it's quiet they go home make millions yeah they not trippin remember they call him Super Mario Mario Hadoza yeah he, he was like, hey, he came for me. Went back to your league, killing. All of them do it, bro. I wish we had

something like that here, though. Nico Meritage. He got punched. Yeah, he got punched. He was like, I just made 25 over here. I'm just going home and be the highest paid player

where I'm from. Yeah. Yeah, bro. He the real Will Smith, bro. He got punched on and said, fuck this country. I'm going back to the crib. So they got the,

they really got the real finesse and they didn't hit me until Dennis Schroeder said that to me when we was in school. I'm going back to the crib. They really got the real finesse. And they didn't hit me until Dennis Schroeder said that to me when we was in school. I mean, when we was at Atlanta. He was like, I'm going to come over here and make $100 million. I'm going to go back and play in Germany. He was like, what you going to do afterwards? I was like, hmm, that's a great question.

I knew that because when you over there, you might be the highest person on the team, and then the lowest paid, the worst player make the same money as you, bro, from their country. He don't even play. He probably in the same money as you, bro. I'm like, because they take care of their people, bro. That's just how it is. Dang, that's interesting.

Obviously, with you having that type of experience, you just said, you go over there, like, they treat Americans like leases low-key. Yeah. You be like, I'm a high-paid American. You find out what they making, they making more money than you. Like, them doing way more than y'all. It's crazy. You know, I'm the boss.

They don't care. Yeah, bro. You're not a star here, bro. This is my career. So, they really got the biggest finesse of you. Like, Luka and them, obviously, Luka's a generational player. Yoke is. They probably not going to play basketball if they lead the league.

They don't have to. They going to own the team. Yeah, but. They do that. If you like, like you just said, Hazonia. Yeah. You came over here and made a couple of mil, over here made 12, 13 million, you go back home,

you about to go kill there and be the highest paid there. You're going to be making millions for the next 10 years. Yeah, that's how they do it. Like Marc Gasol and them, they all just own the team. When you like super, super good, you just go on the team, bro. Or then if you like them people, you just play, make all the money.

Man, shout out to that. I guess that's why the eBatron tapping to that EuroLeague situation. They're like, nah, we trying to get teams in the league over there. They see what's up over there, second X for sure. All right, man, Thunder eliminated the Suns. Before we go, that's why the big three is so important.

Yeah. For kind of like that. Hopefully it can grow and get bigger where it could pay even more for players because you're right. Once it's over for Americans. It's over. It's over for Americans unless you're going to go over there. And the crazy thing, it could be huge if everybody just play.

People like if Brown was just like, you know, I'm just going to do it. Just to look out. It'll blow the big three up, bro. Just to look out for everybody, bro. I'm telling you. But they're not going to do it. They're not. But I'm saying if they did, just like Dwight Howard playing,

stuff like that just keep happening. It'll blow it up, bro. Just to look out. Like, I don't really want to play, but I'm just going to do it for the culture. I think there's, like you said, that underlying business between the NBA and the big three is the reason why that's such a blockade. But if they embrace each other, that would be dope, man.

It's dope. It would give a lot of players, like some guys that played in the league for five, six years and didn't make it overseas or just didn't have, they just couldn't go over there. Families or whatever it is, it would give them another outlet to still live their dreams, still to be able to play, still earn a living. I think it'll be fire, though.

It's just got to be. That's some hard shit to put together, boy. But they just got to change the game to the rival league, like we talked about yesterday. Yeah, adjustments. You look at all that. They got to just make it like this. Yeah.

Because people, you watch the game better like this. So you wouldn't do five on five? Nah. I mean, because to make it different from the league, unrivaled, my fault. But you can't make it the NBA. Yeah, it's already a G League. You know what I mean? You can go play in the G League.

But I'm saying. I like the three on three. It's fire. But like he said, just make it. Yeah, if it's three on three. Because when you watch that girls on rival, it feel like you still watching a real game. Even though you just, it's less players, but you like, man, you can still see somebody running full speed and cook them.

And I watched that shit. That shit was fire. I enjoyed it. I'm like. But when you watch the big three, which is a good product, somebody score and they just passing it back to the top. Like you don't got run back on defense. You know what I mean? It just don't give you the same feeling as basketball.

Playing 21 low key. Yeah. You know what I mean? That's true. That's true. So it just looked a little different, but it's still a fire league though. Most definitely. It's a lot of basketball outlets.

Now you look at the one-on-one league. We was just talking about yesterday. They got a finale for 25 K. Like it's a lot of basketball outlets now you look at the 101 league um we were just talking about yesterday they got a finale for 25k like it's on many avenues that players could maneuver into post-career or whatever situation and get to it that'd be fire though most definitely all right man thunder eliminated some some contention yesterday 125 to 112 three stars in play didn't matter anyway jay dove went crazy 33 and 7. Chet balled out with 22 and 10. Bradley Beal had 25. Okay, Brad. And Book had 20, 14 and 6. Man,

get well soon to the Suns, man. Knocked out of contention. They've been out of contention for a long time. It's just official now. Man. And our starters didn't play. We just the best team in the league, man. They say it's a 0% chance Bradley Bill will be back on the Phoenix Suns next year.

They'll lie. Who said that? 0% chance. I read it today. They didn't talk to Brad. They make the same mistake. They don't care. He is leaving. I promise. They said he is gone. I don't care. He's going to have to go to small claims court. He's going to go with John Walling, bro.

They're going to just send him home. I respect that then. They said we do not want him. We refuse for him to be on this team. They like, we'll pay you, G. You can go to the crib, bro. They're going to Jamal Tinsley, my boy? They trying to put an amnesty card on Brad.

Bradley Bill, man. Way to do it, King. Way to lock in, man. You were going to be a family man to the team. You got to drop your kids off at school. You got to wait for them to get off. Get a bag. Take youngster to go hoop.

He's going to be coaching the little league team. I know. I know he hope that they wave him though. So he can go get another team. So he can stretch. So he can stretch his contract out. Because we got like two years left. Somebody will pick him up, bro.

Yeah, he going to get picked up. I'm saying they stretch that contract out for like the next eight years. He can be bread for eight years and then get waived and go play for whoever he want to play for. Yeah, let's go to his year. 318, woo! He get that. He did it right, bro. 318.

Sheesh. Send me home. Fuck it 318, woo! He get that. He did it right, bro. 318. Sheesh. Send me home. Fuck it. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Send me to the crib. Y'all going to pay me all this money to chill? Yeah, I'm going to country. I'm going to see it.

I'm going to say, wave me, stretch this motherfucker for six years, and I'm going to go sign with the Lakers. However y'all want to do it. I'm going to go sign with them. However y'all want to do it. Hey, I want Brad Beals to get away from the Suns and come back and kill for somebody next year. Come off the bench at average like 15, 16 and ball out and piss everybody off. There's teams that need him, though.

Ain't nobody tell you they proud of y'all. I swear to God, if he would have went to the Pacers, he would have been going crazy, bro.

The Pacers would have been a little better. They'd have been cool. Bro, you can pull up next year, bro. Once you get out this empty situation, bro, we got you for a minimum. Come who? A minimum?

So tune into the podcast, focus on your emotional well-being and climb your personal mountain. Because it's impossible for you to be the most authentic you. It's impossible for you to love you fully if all you're doing is living to please people. Your mountain is that. Listen to Made for This Mountain on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I know a lot of cops, and they get asked all the time, have you ever had to shoot your gun? Sometimes the answer is yes.

But there's a company dedicated to a future where the answer will always be no. Across the country, cops called this taser the revolution. But not everyone was convinced it was that simple. Cops believed everything that taser told them.

I'm Michael Kassin, founder and CEO of 3C Ventures and your guide on Good Company, the podcast where I sit down with the boldest innovators shaping what's next. In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi, for a conversation that's anything but ordinary. We dive into the competitive world of streaming, how she's turning so-called niche into mainstream gold, connecting audiences with stories that truly make them feel seen. What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core. It's this idea that there are so many stories out there, and if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content, the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen. Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports collide.

And hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets.
