I'm chilling, bro. I ain't know that we be going live for Patreon earlier. I was singer, what's her name? Averal Levine. Aval Levine. Yeah. I like that song.

Why you got a common back thing? No, for sure. For sure. That's by Christian Mo. Be here, you got a favorite white slap? Oh, man, it's so many. Probably something by probably John May or Neon. Room for Squares is one of my favorite albums.

Okay. In the early 2000s, John Mir is my favorite white artist. Or probably either Neon, your body is a Wonderland. Shit. So much, bro. Bed on Fire by Teddy Swims. Anything that the journey makes. I fuck with the job.

journey. They're going on tour, bro. For real? Yeah, they went on tour. Yeah, shout to my pop. So he put me on the journey early. Damn.

It's a lot of... They're going on to... I thought I might go to one of their shows. It's hard. We can pull up. It's hard to sample the journey, too. I will. That nays do the corner of the corner.

Yeah, for sure. I still have the fashion. Shocking concept. I knew Kanye was going to do that shit with my song. I would never cleared it. That shit crazy, man. That is hilarious. Because he made a bagger out of that, too.

If y'all had a lot of it. If y'all had a lot of it. If y'all had like, you know, if y'all was big, big artists, I had big songs like that, would y'all be whacking people for the sample? Like, what if you fucked with the artists? Would you show them love or? I'll get a percentage regardless. But if I fuck with you, I'm saying, I'm going to show love,

especially if it's got potential, I'm going to show love. Yeah, I'm saying what your percentage is depending on. Yeah, it's definitely discretionary for sure. Because I always wondered how that worked, like, with clearances and shit. Like, damn, I wonder if that person really has a real thing. relationship with his team. I want to sing the part they're using. Like, so if it's my

verse or like if it's my hook, like, y'all just put me really on the song. Like, I want to be a part of some. Like, I don't want you to use my old vocal. Use these new ones. I'm trying to. I'm trying to get it. Now you're in the way.

I try to go back on tour. Yeah, bro. I don't want your remix. Yeah, I try a double dip. Why you got to go and make this song 50 years ago? You don't even sound to say. Dope. That's what happened to all the old.

so they got on a streaming platform and re-recorded all the songs and they get their paper. I'm like, y'all, y'all deserve our bread, but this shit don't sound like that. Yeah, I'm playing old version. That is true. They'd be trying to play a new version.

No, that's not the stuff. I always thought about that like, damn. I wonder what I do. I probably whack everybody, though. God damn. Depending on where I'm at in my life. That boy, Prince said, ain't nobody used my shit. Yeah, so me.

Like, Princess is a rat. But I respect that, though, because that's how he moved in real life. It's probably hard getting a Michael Jackson sample, too. Oh, sexy red trying to, and I hope they don't clear it. Sexy Red. Sexy Red trying to get a Michael Jackson. What's your shit called?

Man, get the fuck out of here. Not, granted, sexy red, they come on the scene making hilarious covers that we all love walking up down the street with that white boy shooting the chopper and shit, but that's why I draw a line. There would be no Michael Jackson slander or smut. You got out of here.

Yeah, this is where... What's the reason? To beat it. Is she clowning on? You can imagine what she's a classic. It's a classic with her in this way. I already know what she's doing. It shouldn't be.

I'll watch it. Just sitting in tomorrow watching when we leave. Yeah, outside the red. Is it your like guy, Sam? You can imagine. It's not like she just beat it up. Oh, okay. Yeah, like, I'll be watching Cardi B concerts on YouTube.

That shit is dumb. If you've heard what Malcolm referred to as a 50-sand-song and we all know and love, y'all would be ashamed. Yeah, boy said, play that won't. I said, what is that? I said, did you say monster? He said, Bonaster. What is it?

Malcolm did then 10 years in the joint. I said, what is that? He's like, about 50s. I was getting shitty because he kept repeating it. Like, what are y'all are the fucking saying? That nigga said, talk right. Tell the nigga to talk right. Oh, man, give us what about, man.

I might have to talk about him on the pod. Did you across the line? I asked him before when we had first started talking, I'm like, is that going to be an issue? And he's like, no, just don't embarrass me. I'm like,

I'd be embarrassing myself. I can't promise that. But it was cool. We talked on the phone. Then the next, he's seen I got all those flowers from the pot. Oh. From our chat, we love y'all. And I think, I don't know,

and I really don't like that, but eventually comes a point where you have to decide how do I want to live my life. I can talk to my daddy in six years. I didn't do fuck about what my family has gone through. I know what I will go. So it's like, you know, you can only say that for so long. Black women are tired.

And, you know, kind of like putting on to them like, hey, like, you didn't do this entirely because everybody in here is something I'm talking about, like, you know. Like, you know, lose it. Have that upon yourself. Stop waiting for wanting to tell you what you need to do. Take that. And let me. I didn't know.

Okay, but let me, I want to live my life right. I want to take care of me and protect me. That's what I'm talking about. And I said, listen, I said 60s and 70. Let me say this. You're over talking. You don't know what the fucking talk about me. I'm going to get a shit.

I didn't ask you to speak with him. No, we know Barbie knows, like Mike Malk, everybody in 520 family knows, like, that DJ believes women have zero accountability. I don't feel that way. I don't believe zero. It's just a low percentage. Like, yeah.

You probably feel like DJ but not as bad. I think I think someone will hold their self accountable. And I think more than some. So we are different than anyway. DJs really clifed them out. But the kids don't hold themselves accountable to it. Look, I heard. She couldn't wait to fucking clap.

I agree. To an extent. That's how we'd be seeing. I think a lot of people don't hold themselves accountable across the board. I mean, it goes both. We're talking about in a relationship, bro. I just think. What fault does it really be, though?

In a relationship? I mean, Thomas Niggas. Why do you think it's a niggas though? We're doing the fucked up shit. No. Yeah, look at she's talking to talk.

You're not going to do. No, I'm not cooking. No, I'm not cooking. I'm just being real. Like, most women, if you're doing the right, if you're treating them a right way

or treating them a certain way, they ain't going to do shit. Mm. Niggas could have five girls. Mm-hmm. and still want to, shit, I'm a slide with y'all this, you know. I'm just saying, it's just, niggins shit. Niggins just dude, niggins shit.

You agree, Barb? I agree. Wow. That I don't mean it's right. I believe that in more than, women, the new women, they kind of act like niggas, though. Yeah. But I feel like that's because, shit, we got tired of getting walked over. So we're just like, yeah.

You get tired of getting walked over? How do we change that? How do we bring you back to how it supposed to be, though? I think it's getting better now, though. Right. I think that it's better. What's changing? Men are starting to be okay with, like, expressing their emotions and feelings and communicating.

Oh, I ain't there yet. Not there yet? No, I'm sorry. You get that one, you're sitting there. Yeah, like, clipped up. I think communication is changing. It's okay for men and women are starting to recognize men's feelings now as before y'all just to be tough and get through whatever.

No. No, Barbie, do you recognize them or do you use them when you get mad at the conversation? No, I recognize them. I'm really like the chillest. He's a soft-ass, nigga. I can hear her down. In front of his friend. That bitch ass was crying.

Y'all know this talking about crying. I heard this horn when I was at the podcast. Fuck you. You talked about the gentleman you helped when he was down and out. Then he said, y'all friends me, I hope she was fucked up with him and wife you. They bring up my low lights. Yeah. He deserved that.

Fuck you. That's why niggas don't really express themselves, like, or want women doing too much for him because it's like, damn. Yeah. You're going to hit me in my mouth with the shit when shit don't go your way. But what? She's not just doing that to be spiteful. It was something before you got there.

Like, no, let me remind you what I do. It's okay. Well, it's okay for women to be human beings. I'm telling you, Barbie, we don't have to really be it for real reason. Women just get mad. And when they, when they lose in the argument, they hit a nigga with. Niggas gay you two thousand because your broke ass couldn't, God. Oh, God.

Women go. You don't need no fucking reason. No, Barbie. Not all of them. Now we're not being accountable. Barbie. This is what DJ hates. I swear to God, women don't always have a reason to be disrespectful on my mama.

That's true. There's a lot of women that are disrespectful. And or out of relationships. But if I'm telling you, if you're doing some bullshit and I'm trying to tell you like, this is why or look at what we've been through or what I did for you to demand more of love or respect, that's not like me throwing at your case. But listen, if you were trying to demand more love and respect, don't bring up you giving me 10K to get it.

back on my feet. That don't have nothing to do with. Talk about love and respect. For free when I just gave you 10K, so are we, we're not on the same page here no more. It's so sad, it's too bad. You did that because you didn't have to bring that up.

Yeah. It already happened. Let it go. Yes. I don't get this place. No, do y'all really take advice from, like, people who ain't? Do you think good advice? Who ain't?

No. Oh, my goodness. I'm not talking about this advice in general. Like, but Crackhead gave you some advice. It was some good advice, man. Listen to it. All right. You can get game from anywhere.

I know it's crack kids. They got me some super game. For sure. They was like, yeah, you can learn from anybody. My uncle that did, went to prison for the first time.

He gave me, did like 30 years. He gave me a bunch of games. You could learn for people's mistakes. Yeah, I agree to. I just feel like some people be looking at people

and be like, man, you got out of this game. Why the fuck you? Where are you at? I never looked at shit like. I feel like I'm married by people that have been through the worst situation. I would really like to talk to them.

Yeah. Experience, bro. Yeah. especially if they got out of. I don't like when people who don't have something, though, tell me, like, how to get it. I mean, like, you can tell me how to avoid, like, bad shit. But if you broke, don't go tell me how to make $10,000.

But what if he know how to make it? Tell me how you lost your money, and I won't do that. Don't go tell me. I made it 10 beds this way. That would mean, I can't, I tricked it all, but I still made it. I made it. You don't got trick it off. Yeah, you can, you can, nigger.

Use your profit better than I did. Tell me how you lost it. I see. I can't take that, bro. I get what you're saying, though. But I can learn from a nigga from Wolf and Walk. Come on, bro. I could probably learn something from him.

He lost a lot, but shit. At one point, he made a lot. I probably can learn a thing too much. I'm really, I'm wondering. I'll see what you're saying. Yeah, I just think it was with anything, though, bro. If a nigga can really made it, and if a nigga who just don't have no money and never did shit,

you don't want to have a financial literacy conversation with the nigga. But if you know a nigga who really was getting to the chicken when he was just fucked up, like... There you go. How about this? Don't tell me how to get something you've never had. There it is. I'm at that.

I fuck with that. Hey, y'all be saying a nigga that'd be going around giving people fake money in the grocery store. Like, did you lose this envelope? Oh, yeah. They'd be like, yeah. That was my. Like, what MP stand for?

I'm going to say anything, bro. That's what I mean. That's what I mean. That's just lie. Yeah, you know, no, it was PM. She's like Patricia. She said, Tracy. He was like, your name, Tracy.

He was like, yeah, my full name is Patricia. They just call me Tracy. I was like, well, you're like good. That's probably one of the most time. That's probably at the top of the list of things that people don't want to pay for. So if a nigga say, here's the inval with some money, nigga, a mass majority people are going to reach for their envelope. Oh, every time.

Groceries and gas, two worst things. Niggas say pay for it for, bro, I promise you. I ask her parents, two things. have to pay for ever again. What would you pick? Mortgage, food, or gas? B? Mortgage.

Yeah? I'll probably say mortgage and groceries. See? I spent over $1,000 a month. If I'd never had to pay a mortgage, that'd be great. I'll go buy something stupid. Yeah, I'd definitely. Mortgage is a grocery.

I'll put. What's, how much you got to put down for a $20 million house? Damn. 30%. 20%? Ah, yeah. You're gonna feel away with 10. Yeah, yeah.

Ah, yeah, I'm putting that down. Fuck the mortgage. It's all good. Damn. Yeah, no. Just give me the fool. Because you still got to pay for your property taxes. Property taxes.

Oh, property tax don't like you. Y'all got to pay. Oh, go ahead and stay. You're in avoid that now. That property tax is going to tear out. Why are you going to be at that 50 piece? Yeah, it's going to get wicked for sure, man. It's going for everybody.

Dull, law. No, grocery shop. We all shop, grocery shop different, but... No, groceries is crazy. The regular necessities right now are luxury, boy. If you get into a boy, save a chicken if you can. It's wicked out here for show. B, we appreciate you.

It's been a while, man. Tell the people that can find you at. Every Wednesday, it's 520 somewhere. We are on Patreon. Tap in. There we go. That's so good. Tap in with the gang, for sure.

All right, man, NBA heard us talking shit about Saturday night. Got some couple proposals. allegedly. They might add a 1v1 or 2 on 2 next year. I'll start weekend. Are y'all something? Two on 2 safer. Yeah.

2 on 2 safer. You got somebody to blame? More safe. Okay. It ain't really about more to blame. Just injury-wise, I think it'll just calm it down a little bit, bro. I just wonder, like, who they think going to play that? No stars are going to play.

Yeah, they are. Guarantee. They will, bro. Watch. They're going to play that. you see it's gonna be young guys and them and them gonna get in that ain't gonna get in that

oh they not do you think they'd like choose two totally different superstars or like the two key people on the team like you're a guy already I wonder I mean probably how they ever do it if I'm a star I'm like I'm gonna pick who I want to run with yeah I can see that

nobody gonna do it though like a point guard and a big or something like that he's not gonna do it because one thing about NBA players They don't like being embarrassed. Think about Denzel Valentine when he went out there against Frank Nitty and Brang Nitty embarrassed him and niggas was talking bad about it.

Now we live in a social media world something happened. Imagine one of them niggas just fall, trip. At the all-star game, two-on-two? What do you do with in a real five though? Yeah, but everybody don't watch together every guy. Like, if you get shook,

and it's the Hornets versus Blazers and you get crossed, like nobody, not that many people watching it live. Yeah. We'd get the reenactment the next day, blah, blah, blah. Nigger, everybody watching this live, instantly, nigga, you're, it's over with.

As soon as you get back to your phone, it's curtains, nigga. The whole world watching, bro, it's over. Niggas got too much pride and ego for that. Now, it might be some young boys that might play that's trying to get their name, you know what I mean, trying to get famous, and they cook somebody,

but all that nigga really got gang. Yeah, that's, I was leaning towards probably be some of the younger talents, like rookies and stuff like that. People trying to make and they would probably get out there and really cook some shit, but it would be dope and far stars participated in it. At least the ones would be fire.

King of the Hill, three dribbles, that would be fire. Yeah, three gerbils are safe, bro. You ain't. Nah, niggas aren't doing that shit. And it's going to take two damn long. Four or seven seconds? You know how long that game going to take?

Yeah, that is true. Niggas can't make a shot. I don't think it's ever going to be that, bro. It's the NBA. It ain't going to get like that, bro. They don't give a niggas a certain amount of minutes to play. And whoever gets into the first time, the first time niggas don't score in 10 minutes

and it's a zero-zero game, niggas go, all this shit was awful. move on to the next one. Yeah, give me some. I've just seen so much bullshit at dunk contest that it has to be better than that. Oh, man, Jackson Hades went back to the other side of the court and did the record. I imagine a rookie from Toronto playing, a rookie from Philly. And we don't really know them.

We might know a little bit about it. We don't know them. And they go out there and go zero zero for 10 minutes. Now, you, but see, you're talking about the worst. What if that's actually fired just one-on-one game with two NBA pros, bro? Hey, I'm saying. What about this? Devon Hooker and Eddie Edwards and it's a fire.

Them two playing one-on-one, nobody's score. Ain't nobody mad. If these niggins is really hooping, going at each other, ain't nobody mad, bro. But they just keep missing. No matter. Do you think it should be pre-recorded then

and not live? Yeah, it got to be pre-recorded. So if they do it like how the bitch y'all put it off the dribble did, like something like that, that would be fire. It got to be pre-recorded. If it's live and they all missing, niggas and, oh.

Oh. I'm telling you, you know how it is, though. When y'all even said it, like, your one-on-one games y'all went to, y'all was like, nigga, it was way too long. Yeah, because that's because niggas is overly fouling. Yeah. That shit is brutal. You got to be built different for that.

I feel like the NBA, if it's a clean game, bro. Nigger, you're going to see, like, your favorite player really one-on-one bad? He's going to be trying to cross a nigga. And they're going to be defending him because, bro, I ain't trying to have you drop me, bro. Yeah. Like, I looked at unrivalry-in-one. Like, some of the unlikely players won.

But it was fire, though. It was fire to see the ones like that. That's a fire league, too. It is. Yeah, that shit was fire, but it's like... That unrival shit is lit. Yeah. No disrespect to the women's games.

Yeah. If you're bigger than them, they'll just be posting them up. You know what I mean? They just be, like, bagging them down. Yeah, it's just the marketing for me around the dog as far. And it's just like the environment for the unrival, bro. That shit is... Yeah.

The W&B, I don't know. But it's, it might be... No, they got that money out. They got a way better about. Yeah. And you get to see people in their bags. They ain't restricted to systems. People are pulling up to our rival, bro.

Yeah, I'm mad. It's a more, no disrespect to the W. It's just a more exciting brand. Like, you get to see people, no offense to the women's game. It's kind of a, never mind. But they three on three basketball is more exciting because you get to the actual team do stuff that you don't think they can do.

Yes. Like, when I watch Girls Whoop Five on Five, you know, they run so many plays and shit, I don't get to see their natural ability. Yeah. So when I see, like, a, I could do like Cappy Pondas. If she played in this and I seen her play

like how I know she could play in a three-on-three setting, I would look at her totally different than when I except to watch her in five-on-five. You know she was raw, but like they played one-on-one. She'll look crazy. Yeah, like, Maya Moore would be insane. What? It would go crazy. Like, at least Grapey out there killing.

Like, you see people do look out there killing, seeing everybody natural. And there ain't no double teams. It would just look like you. You'd be like, damn, she actually, they look way more athletic and everything. Even like Angel Reese. Yeah.

Why she'd be out there, you'd be like, damn. Her game looks crazy last year compared to her working season. Yeah, yeah. But what's dope about it is, like you said, like, it gives some time to just really get their shit off. And the best part about it, bro, the marketing aspect about it. Everybody gets to be visible. Everybody gets to show their personality, stuff like that.

And they get into some chicken. Yeah, probably. I want to be a part of it even more. Don't got to go overseas and off season to get your bread. Yeah. I just think it's a better product than W. Yeah. I do.

I just think people look better. Yeah. Because it's so hard to get in the, We talk about lottery picks getting waived in training camp. A lot of these young ladies win college were 20, 30 point scores. So now they get to a league where they got a done themselves down. You get to see people natural ability. But I'm fucking on arrival, like you said, be here.

I'm happy that the NBA is the least listening trying to do something, bro. Do something because Saturday night. They know. It's too many 22. I think two on two will be smooth, though. I ain't at 2 on 2. Yeah, bro. It's safe.

It's fun, bro. And it's going to give them the sense of, because they watched the one-on-one. off the drill. But Jalen Brown was talking about, like, nigga that shit's a dope, bro.

Like, really, reality, y'all can't do that shit because it ain't safe. But to get in your bag and do that shit, it's going to bring up childhood. Shit are you playing with your guys, bro.

So two-on-two is make them nigs go to 30, bro. It's cool. Y'all in the NBA, bro, y'all hit unbelievable shots all the time, bro.

They do. I would hate the, I doubt a game would go zero-zero and 10 minutes. Yeah, the moment it do. That's going to look crazy. Yeah, well,

we already have to float with it, brother. We can only go up from here. It's just getting wicked for sure. LeBron, basically, you know what I'm saying? The streaming rights for his fair world tool could get him about 40 to 75 M's.

He can play on a vet mat, Venomum next year and still get all that chicken of a regular NBA contract. They've been saying, Brian Winherst said that if he goes to Cleveland have to be for a low deal, do we see this happening? Man, he's bringing this whole season.

I mean, he could put his rights to it or whatever he would have put his stipulation. I'm sure somebody would love. to get the rights of his final season, all access. Yeah. It's worth it. They probably get more than that.

Yeah, like you're saying, that's probably be understanding it, but just off the dribble. A little bit off a dock. A real prayer tour? Come on, bro. In Cleveland, he probably get $200 million.

Everybody going to tune in today. Everybody's pulling up. They got all the streaming rights, and then they drop the dot. All of the years. Yeah, I'm rolling. They got to give it. They got three, four, seconds.

Five, six, seven years, whatever. Let it sit for a little bit and then drop it. And don't let the can. Cazby called and he goes back there next year and they fuck around it like get to the finals or something like that. Yeah. If LeBron goes to the championship on his farewell tour. The greatest, bro.

He's the greatest, bro. Everybody else went outside, bro. Everybody went out. It did. Everybody, bro. Nobody that retired from the NBA went out. How did he go out? Who?

Tim Duncan was they ass on either? Um, they weren't. But he, it wasn't 10. He had won a chip recently, too. He did. He won in 20. too bad. He won in like 2012 or some shit.

Or 2014? He just like retired. I don't think Nicky. He kind of dipped off. No, he got one in, what was that? 15, right? They beat the heat. Yeah, what year he retired?

They beat. Damn, LeBron James played for the Heat in 2015? Not 15. No, they beat them in what? That was 12 or 13. Yeah, but what did they go with 15, 16? That was trash, I imagine. But his last shit was...

Kobe scored 100 points on shelving them. You remember the game. You got really, like, no ball for real. Like, to really know that game. I mean, you remember Kobe last game. Yeah, but I'm saying, though, like how Brian, if he won the championship, bro, that is going to be. They had a record.

when I left What When who left Oh he says Respect Lord You gotta get in your bag I ain't even if my bag Really

I mean Brian ain't even if I go Yeah I left I left pop of bottles I'm just saying Regardless of what Brian do Because just because he's still Killing at a high level

Yeah No that's gonna fire Real bro He got a retire next year Yeah Why do you keep saying that, bro? For the same reason you just said, bro, I would love to see LeBron still at somewhat of LeBron.

I remember. Because y'all putting it in the air that he's, this is a farewell tour upcoming. This nigga averages 20 points in the NBA still. No, I just don't ever want to see him like KG, like the last year. I told you, when I played KG in Brooklyn, I was going by him on a pick and row. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Like, I never want that to be Brian. Like, Brian's so great. Like, even though Mike still was averaging 20, but, like, it was, niggas was trying to score on Mike and go at Mike. Niggins was challenging men, an all-star game. You know what I mean? Nicket wasn't starting the last game. So y'all was trying to go out on still being superior.

Yes. Yeah, I want niggas to remember that this is one of the greatest players, if not the greatest player to ever touch a basketball. And I left averaging 24, 23. I don't want nobody on the Pond six years for now, man. I had Brian's last year. I'll throw it you off the backboard. I don't want to hear it.

I don't want to hear it, bro. None of that. We got to protect our superheroes, man They protect the MJ You see how they came out And they defused that story real quick Yeah They defused it real quick

Respect, bro Got to protect our heroes We gotta take Brian, bro We got to lose our heroes Every day Yeah, my childhood is cooked, bro Like look how CP went out, bro Yeah

Come on, bro, we can't have Bronon. I mean, Brian ain't gonna never go out like that But Mello went out, bro. They did melt up greasy We saw the start of that. Yeah, but the fee Mello, I don't even know when Mello retired. Yeah.

You know what I mean? I don't even remember. Mello retired. I don't know who he was playing for when he retired. Portland, probably. What's the world of the last? Damn. Did he play with the Lakers after Portland?

Yeah, the Lakers. Yeah, the Lakers. You know what I'm saying? That's that's nice. Yeah, he went out fat. Yeah. I never want us to be like, what happened when Brian left?

Like, will he do that last year? Like, even when Kobe, Kobe didn't have $60. last game, I swear to God we wouldn't be talking about. That's true. But Kobe made it, had a Kobe moment. He had a real farewell tour. Yeah.

Like, Kobe was the last real farewell tour. Yeah, but Kobe had a, but he had a, if he didn't have a Kobe moments to end that joint. See Kobe. True, true. They was talking about this. I forgot who, maybe Nick Wright, but he said, Caitlin Clark is like the biggest superstar under the age of 35, like, especially

in the basketball world. And I was just like, that's kind of crazy. But it got a little bit of validity to it. Like, as far as recognizable star-wise, like, it's crazy. Like after Brian leaves, who's going to be the next, like, real star? I don't know. Victor Wimbiota. Yeah, I'm nothing.

He bigger than Katelyn Clark, you think? Man, what? What? Fuck you. Caldick is big in the States. Wembe big everywhere. In national? Yeah.

He's an international superstar. Superstar, bro. Now, American, though, do we have anybody on American side-ass could question her fame or battle on that situation? I know we got the A. She said all athletes, right? He said basketball, basically. He said Americans under 35 as well.

American Hoopers under 35? They're tough. I don't know, bro. I think so. She might be the biggest. I don't know if she's more famous. Is she more famous to Jason Tatum? Yeah, respectfully.

Okay. I'm nothing. I don't know. I'm nothing. She's not more famous than him. I think if people would have called and told them that Jason Tatum was at the Pike High School game, I think people would have pulled up.

People call it, Kaylin Clark is at Pike High School. And niggas, it was like, oh, okay. It was regular C. Yeah. I just feel like, I respect to her. Like, she, in her sport, she's so massive in her sport. I can see that. But I don't see her being bigger than these NBA players, bro.

Yeah. I don't think she's bigger than aunt. She's famous as hell, though. She's famous as shit. She's super famous. She is, bro. And that impact, like you said, it's crazy, bro. When you Demer Demmer Tobin League.

You got on some real shit. It's them their second glance. say, oh shit, that is Katelyn Clark. Oh, yeah, I'll have a attest here. That's a couple. That's everybody, you know. Oh, niggia. And Elworth's walking the motherfucker.

She walks somewhere. She walks somewhere, nigga, that's Jason Taylor. Because they're big. If you see Kaylin Clark, you, that's Caitlin Clark. She's just a, like, no offense. But she's dressed down, bro. She's not a tall girl. I said, I heard Del Friscoll for, like, 45 minutes.

I was like, oh, shit, that's statement. Yeah, that's all. See, what I'm saying? On the second class, who you're looking at that. I think that's the point, though. Yeah. But when you recognize as her, like, oh, shit, it's Kaylin Clark after you recognize. Yeah, she's famous.

Yeah. That's my player. Y'all just different, bro. NBA players are just different. They're so tall. Niggas Jackson Tatum is 6-10, bro. You see him walk in. You're going to know who the fuck is at.

Yeah. Like, if Caitlin Clark respectfully, walk in with the people that work with us with the volume, you're going to have to look around. I realize what. Her all three damn different things. You said her walking in her. Shout out the game, man.

Oh, it's not for real. Shout out to our people. We love him. Shown something. She was a hot to bitch at Pike. I didn't even recognize it. I sat behind her at the game. I didn't recognize her.

I didn't know it was her until she was at the door. Yeah. And, like, we was about to go on overtime. She was at the door. And somebody was like, Clayland Clark right there. I was like, oh. Yeah, to say she's the biggest basketball player where, that's a little tough. Yeah, she's pretty fucking famous, though.

He's famous. Her name is bigger than her. Yeah. That's a fan. Her name's how way. I think her name probably hold them more weight than a lot of people.

Seeing them in person is different. But if you say Kaelin Clark is going to be at this venue. Oh, yeah. That's different. Yeah. That's different. IMPD will be surrounding the area.

That's different. Yeah. But just seeing her in person, I don't think she get the same reaction as they would. But like, if you made an announcement that Kaylin Clark is going to be at All-Star weekend and her shoe is coming out. They go crazy.

Not okay. More than anybody else. No, hell yet. Well, her shoe drop, you're going to really see. I mean, you can really fuck her for sure. He might be right about that. I ain't mad at it, man. Brian, go ahead and go to Cleveland, man.

Fairward Tool, win the chipping and go about your life, man. So I'm right if he do, bro. All right. Nacho, you are the resident GM for the Sacramento Kings as you've seen on the morning show. Jack Levine and Sabonis are having, quote, unquote, surgeries and are out for the rest of the season. Yeah. What's going on, man? I know you was making some trades this morning.

We'll be doing. Fire sale? Yeah, go ahead and sit down. Get it right because you will be trading the off season. We are not fucking. with you all don't work. Yeah, it's time for new homes. We are getting AJ to Bancing and you are done.

I'm happy for both of these gentlemen. They both seem to want to get out there. I know Zach Levine has expressed his issues there. What was that trying to do? Get the fuck on. And we want you to leave. Yeah. It's a mutual situation.

I'm imagining, but. Where are we thinking, though? I'm rolling with the Detroit situation, man. We'll see how things take out in the playoffs, but I liked for him to go to Detroit. I mean, like you said, even possibly Denver on the money, makes sense. He's still a viable piece that could help a team.

I wouldn't play winning basketball, though. Yeah, he deserved that much. But he's out of there. Yeah, he's gone. Sabonis, like we said, he's a big deal. A lot of teams he can use, I don't know where he'll go, but his value is definitely there for sure. Yeah, he's out of there.

Subonis under 30? Oh, he might be right there, brother. 30, 31. Oh, he's still serviceable. Oh, yeah, you got a good four. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he got a good four-year-old three-year-old. For sure, yeah, yeah. How is he, Mike?

What year is he born? I don't say it, but, yeah, I think. Yeah, I got five more years for Sabonis. Yeah, but I'm always, from the three to deal. They got a good three or four, five years. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

Four or five years. Very, very still service. And if it's in 16 and 12, it's life for him. That could very easily be 18 to 14 if you need to be everywhere. Yeah, like that's crazy. We were talking about the take-offs, boy, it's no shame right now. Everybody's trying to get to this chicken right now. This summer going to be phenomenal.

That's what I was leading to. This summer of Denmark going to be crazy, bro. We're going to have a lot of stars in food. It's going to be one of the best summers ever, bro. I don't know, though. If LeBron go to Cleveland will be. John Moran is not going to be on the Memphis Grizzlies, bro. Yonis will not be in Milwaukee either.

He will not be in Milwaukee, bro. It's up. You think LeBrongo can get off? And left Milwaukee trade for you. If the New York Knicks don't do something, the New York Knicks will be blown up in a way. Oh, if the Knicks don't go to the conference finals. Well, Jalen Brunc's saying, he's up for $400 million.

So we know Jailen Brunson is good. He's up for $413 million. Now, they had a conversation. about that they were just like they hoped that the next do right by him because he took a make the last time they said they better do right by him yeah he's up for us was y'all uh never my i'll change the subject in a little bit okay

because i was looking at channing crowder and i was like you know how they was getting some backlash for him saying sell the soul or whatever 400 million but he wasn't saying it like that I was just like what would you do for 400 million god damn 400 for 500 for 500 for 500 for 500 for 500 for 500 for 500 for 5 years. And they go, what? You can have both my kneecaps for 400. Both my kneecaps. You'll get rid of your kneecaps.

What about a leg, though? No, I need my leg. 300 M's, I'd be Dwan Blair, bro. Damn. Yeah, bro. Well, you know what for 400 mil? That's great. Well, I don't know.

What are he doing off the court, but on the court, respectfully. I don't know how he was. I'm not aware of it. But he might be making a do you clap. I wonder who suck that song, man. Who's on that hook, man? Wack, go, skit.

I don't get that dog, yeah, Claire? Whoa. Now, for 400 million, I kind of want to rebe who I'll, man. I still want my wood to still stick up for the ladies, but you can have one of my arms, though. Damn. You give another arm before a leg? For sure.

All right, told you all that. Your legs is most important. We don't have to touch you on this again, but your legs are way more important than your arms, y'all. I'm just saying that. Imagine just seeing that, though, on the paper. We're on the internet. Like, you're up for a $400 million extension. That means liquid. It's $200.

I'm good, bro. Yeah, that'll fuck my mind up. I remember when I was a poor extension, and my mind was fucked up. I was, every day, I was just, like, update my phone. Like, it's still, it's still, that's still a number of arm. So that's a real thing

for real? No, not for him. I mean, he's making, I ain't count nobody. chicken, but I was like $50 million a year right now. So it ain't going to be, it ain't going to change. I know them personally. I know Jaylen, I know Rick. His life not going to change at all. Like, what he's doing right now is what he's going to be doing when he get for him.

Child Jack be, man. Now, fat. Yeah, like, he his life ain't going to change. I'm saying, so you was looking at it like, my life has changed. Who told you first? The internet or somebody in the office? No, you know. Oh.

Like. But I didn't. I didn't get it. I didn't get it. And all my heart was broke the whole time. Like, damn. You went on your shit. Your ego was in a way.

After taxes, I'm about to take home this. Mm-hmm. You didn't lock in. I thought I was locked. Ego was in the way. Your extension with the Pacers. Yeah, ego was in the way. Oh, yeah.

Ego was in a way. I've never forgotten. I've never forgave myself for that. He was a wild boy for that, actually. I said, damn, I had to be this nigga friend for a year. That's it, bro. Damn it. Never going to forget myself.

You went on to make $57 million. You remember the contract? Three years, $57 million. That was a good day. I cried. I thought, I was happy. I cried, and I said, damn, I could have two toddlers. I didn't do as be that dick for it.

I got a double deal. That is crazy with how the NBA work, bro. Little shit like that can really save a whole bunch of shit. Relationships worth more than money being, like you always say. That's the exact. I preach that, bro. I tell Mommy that shit all the time, bro. I over here and get, think about it like that.

I tell everybody that I could have been at the career. Yeah. Damn. I fucked that up. Patience legend Jeff Teague, man. I fucked that up. Out of pushing there to bro. Fuck that up.

Maxis, man, I want to apologize to you all, man. I just want. Bring me back, man. Bring back home. You got so many more reasons to apologize. That's why I'm like, Mark just the word right from me, bro. What's fuck about that? They don't give them.

I'm talking about for all the shit I said about them last year. I will apologize, man. I want some tickets to the games. They got you. You know, I want to put my name up there. I want to be on a big screen. You know, it's funny. I went to text about him out of the Patriots yesterday.

My shit went great. And I went and looked at all that conversation. Oh, my God. But fuck them. But it was hilarious. We're cool, man, we cool. I ended up talking to last year. No, DJ is sure locked in.

That is hilarious, good. They was really mad at me about that. Like, some people that are really cool, we're on a Paco's organization. I know, what did we do wrong? I was like, I don't do anything. I'm just fucking with DJ. They was like, no, like, you never, like, say anything good.

Oh. I was like, yeah, I don't want you all to win. And, shoot, I was like, it's a whole, like, I don't think people would understand the angles that we take on the show. I think they think it's like really personal. It's not, it's not, we can see how motherfuckers is treated in real life.

Like, we walk past people. I'm like, right. I didn't fucking know you work for the patients, bro. Yeah. How you doing, man?

Like, whoever these niggas like, I'm not going to like them. I haven't watched the show. Yeah, like, so it's just, that's just what it is. So,

yeah, but I think your, if it was any other team, it's like, I think the patients just believe that like, damn, we fucked with Jeff T. They did.

Yeah. Like, The patient was, I told you it was my favorite year. I can see if you did that to the king so you have no tides with. But it didn't make sense. It didn't fit what. You know what?

The patients felt like you betrayed them. Damn, I wanted, that's the thing I hate the most. Betrayal. I'm Malcolm X. I don't know. Count of it. It was my best. But DJ was going,

so it's fucking hard. Yeah. Fools. And I could not. It's the best season I ever had in my life, bro. I couldn't not. I couldn't stop to hate. Like, you just kicked it up a notch.

I did. Like, every time DJ came with the fucking shades. Yeah. And I'm facing hoodie. Mine was so good. And you just took it. I was going to go crazy. Like, yeah,

always go to the game. Y'all was breaking down niggas game film. And I said, damn, well, and we live here. So it's got a lot. It was actually a great game film, though. No, it was.

It was. It is basketball talk, though. That's what I just be like, I wish it never got to where people personally think it's really something like. Yeah, they started, my people was texting from the place. It's like, damn, it's like,

it's like, you really don't like us. Yeah. I'm like, I like y'all. I just fucking with DJ. And it was like, well,

and then DJ will come in the next day. Yeah, motherfucker bell. Oh, no, I'm turned. Oh, it's,

uh, and this DJ is going, he's in these sweets. Oh, yeah. He ain't there. Yeah, he's in the picture.

He's sitting up in the chat. Yeah. We shit. So it's really turned to be up. Oh, can't be trams. I told you, we locked in.

I know the play. We back next year. This year has been great Doing everything we're supposed to do, baby Get that no-limit take rolling Be here You're Orlando Magic Woo!

Franz and Paulo have played the total 58 games together since the start last season And they are 500 when both guys are available Is it time for one of these gentlemen To move on in the off-season? There ain't no problem I think I believe so

You think Franz got to go? It'll be Franz for Apollo I think they're more invested Into Paulo than they are Franz There's no disrespect Franz go somewhere he can help somebody immediately. 1,000%

I actually thought he was going to go to the jazz, for real. I thought Franz was on his way to the jazz. Or who? My fuck called me about that. They was going to bring over... Walker Kessler? Yeah, the other one. Lord.

That's the same shit. Yeah, that's why I was talking about why. You're getting the same shit. And then they was going to get a wing, another wing from Utah. But it just didn't go through. Damn. Yeah.

I would like to see Franz go to Golden State. That service. Steve Kirk keeps talking about it. He said, I wanted him over Camiga. Oh, this was a thing. Yeah, he said, yeah, he was, I was, fuck for him. Yeah, you have to be talking about me going back for a old boy. I was kind of fucking with him.

Oh, damn. I would like to see him and go, so he just fits their style of play. Yeah, with Jimmy come back, that would be, that would be fire. I don't know who they could trade for him. That's the real issue. Yeah, I don't know who would be the trade. But to be honest, like. I trade Drayma.

Magic don't want them. The magic don't want them, but the magic need toughness. And they need... They need somebody dark skin over there for sure. They got to authorize it. Man, Desmond Bain. He's rough. But they just need, like, somebody to get over that hump.

They need somebody with that experience to get over that hump. Yeah, but you're also looking somebody that can kind of go on that team. You really don't, though. They got a many people that's kind of like... They need another wing that can score, for sure. sure. Yeah, bro. To lose Franz,

that's 20 points you're getting rid of. Dreemann not no score. He not. I don't know. Yeah, I got to rethink this. Yeah,

that's not it. If you bring somebody who's tough and can give me a bucket who can give me at least 16, I need 16 bare minimum, bro.

I don't need just a nigga that's over here causing chaos. Well, I don't know who they trade for. I don't know who you get. Yeah, I don't know what they do. Colum State doesn't have

nobody. That'd have to be a three team or like some draft pictures of shit, bro. That's one team. Not to switch subjects, but what the fuck is going to stay going to do in the summer? Like, I think, bro. I'm telling you, it's back to the drawing board.

They have to get younger. That's why I said Franz. Yeah. I think he could be a franchise player. I really believe that. I think he's good enough to be a franchise player. You give up two or three first round picks for him? Is that out of pocket?

He's up to for Franz. Yeah. I think he could be a franchise player. I think Steph Curry gets ready. Obviously, Steph Curry got two or three, good more years. It's like him and Franz. I think you're patting this the fronds. And you still getting Jimmy Butler back.

Obviously, Jimmy probably going to be out all next year. Yeah. But that dude right there, your franchise is in some okay hands. I ain't saying you're going to win a championship, but he'll be a bucket. He's going to get y'all started again. Yeah. And I don't think those, they got much room for air as far as a rebuild because they are the biggest, like, not the biggest, but the most profitable franchise right in the league. So they're going to have to put some type of product out there who stay and everything.

The good thing about going to stay, even when they were bad, when they were open. They were still tapped in. They were still sold out. Oh, yeah. It was a sold-out crowd every game. Yeah. Hawks versus Warriors. Warriors are awful.

They got Monta Ellis. The games are sold out. Steph, Jimmy, and Franz, you smooth. Yeah, but you might see, like you said, might see Jim Mitchell next year. Also, we got reports of Kyrie is officially off the rest of the season. Obviously, he's going to be gone in the summer as well.

You think he's going to get traded? Yeah, I couldn't see where it would doubt but keep him next year. I don't see where it makes sense. He made too much money, especially if you're trying to get younger. I just don't see who's going to trade for Kyrie. You came, bro.

Damn. And it's not saying it like Kyrie's not a legend. Nah, it makes sense. I'm saying who can't trade for. It got to make sense financially. I'm Dylan Playfair. And I'm Tyler Smith. We're putting loneliness in the penalty box by talking to some of our favorite athletes

That can trade for them. That's a good question. Only people I could think of up that can really get some for them in Minnesota, where it makes sense. Do you want Kyrie and N together? I ain't mad at Kareen and airplane together Yeah, I want Kareen Whatever team

I know I'm biased But no Carrean They got pieces I love Dante to death But you can be a Maverie Oh for sure You don't want to get rid of Jack

But you got Knob Jane McDaniel Young Nizri For an older Kyrie Can't make that move I'll trade Niz I'll trade Niz and Dante

I'll trade Julius Randall Maybe Julius Randall Maybe that's I'm cool with that I love that I don't think they won't third day. Like, we got Cooper Flag. They do got Cooper Flag.

No, but that's, no, no, no, no. But you just got rid of AD. You need to post-presence. Yeah. Cooper Flag is like a high-flying wing. Like, that'd be. I mean, Minnesota's on a bad team. I just can't see anybody else.

Like. Because I'm thinking about people who have pieces that it makes sense for a trade to be even. Maybe if Houston is like, they have a terrible playoff. Or maybe they struggle scoring from the guard position. maybe then they might make a move for Kyrie because we know like the A&K and Kyrie get along Yeah so you let it read Jabari

Shit you gotta give up something Well shit you're having two PGs Coming off ACLs it's tough Yeah I'm saying obviously No disrespect to Fred But Fred would probably have to be gone For real? Fred Van Fleet

I'm like, dude, you make money. Shut up, bro. Like, like, you're getting paid,

dog. Like, like put the work in. So I've probably, I think some coaches with this new world we're living in at a transport portal to NIL have gotten softer. I've probably like gotten crazy.

Like I'm like, no, I'm not, don't tell me about this is too hard. Like, we're all pros here. Be a pro. That's somebody who can live. I love that message. Yeah, in the world of Micronombs, we got this gentleman right here and say,

hey man, he said, y'all employees, bro. I agree. tweet that. Yeah. Immediately. They are employees and they're professional. I wonder if that's a part of the recruitment trip, though. When you go sit in with a kid, do you tell them like, hey, we want you, but when you get

here, this is, you're signing up to be a pro if you come to this school and we're paying you. Got it be, like you said, recruitment, they're going to tell you everything to get you there. And then once you get signed that paper, hey, no you're fucked up, right? So I'm like, y'all really got me fucked up. If I'm paying you and you still talking about what your mind, I'm going to tell me or like that's so tough on the kid, bro.

It's drill too hard, coach. But damn, there's ain't no way, bro. You're getting paid. Because I'd be like, damn, it's like, just say me and the coach

don't, you know, we don't figure it out with each other. We don't vibe. Does my money stay with me? But if I leave? You're like,

well, man, I'm transferring. Oh, you're going to get paid for the year? One year deal. All of them are just one year. I mean, you can agree to a two-year deal, but you see how a dude from Duke did.

It's your my year to. And they try to leave. Now you're about to get sued. You sign a conference. Okay, okay, okay. Yeah, but most people sign one year deals. Okay. Because I'm like, bro, I wonder how that be like.

Because you know the school, I mean, somebody could tell me differently in a chat or whatever. The school sign you now. Like, you can sign to the school. Yeah, you can sign the right. Yeah, you can sign the right. Yeah, like other stuff that's coming around. Like, hey, we can make this happen too. We got other sponsors and shit that happen for you.

But the school can sign you too. So. Oh, that's a different. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. But, like, in some cases, wasn't getting mad because, like you said,

you get there and you don't play good. All right, now next year, we're back to the drawboard, bro. Yeah. You didn't play like a million dollars last year. You're looking real quarter million right now. Bro, like... That's a crazy evaluation. Shout to some of my coaches that are really cool

when I ain't going to put your business out there, but they believe... If we give a dude a million dollars to play and he was weak that year, we go up to him and maybe we don't want to pay him no more. Maybe we just don't even want this kid on the team. We go up to him and say, hey, man, you're looking like a...

200 this year. He was like, immediately we know this kid's going to the portal. Yeah. But we didn't got him out. Yeah. You know what I mean? He's like, he's going to go with a crazy low number. And most people got a minimum that everybody on a team get, like a school I know, everybody

get 150 no matter what. Right, right, right, right. Everybody's getting 150, so he'll go to him like, yeah, you're like a 150. The walk on get 150. He's definitely hitting a portal. He's definitely. Yeah. I ain't going from a million.

He hit him off my books. But they put boys in a portal. you can't come back. Yeah. That's a tough. A devotion. Like, yo,

you came here to get your education until you still get four years. Some coaches don't give a fuck about that. Like, you hear for one year, hey, if it ain't working out, you got to,

hey, you wouldn't win. Like, they don't even promise kids four years no more, some schools. No, you know,

you're going to get your four-year degree. Yeah. They don't even do that no more. It's kind of crazy. That is crazy, bro. Wow. But the stipulations for some of these contracts

are so crazy. We talked about, oh boy, Florida's running back actually the opportunity he had. Hey, man, you got to produce when people give you this money, bro. It's the real world, bro. I just thought it was a million dollars and my four years is guaranteed.

Maybe I don't get paid. You probably can write that in your contract. Your scholarship is probably guaranteed. Yeah, that's what I still want my scholarship. Yeah, I mean, but most people want to make money. They probably are, oh, we going to honor your scholarship. You got four years, but you know you only get $150 for now. So we honor your scholarship.

You're going to get those four years, but you're at the minimum. Depending on the situation, I would probably make my kids stay. I would make my kids stay. So if you was getting a million dollars your first year, you have a bad year, and they coach come to you and say you getting the minimum. But it's other schools that's willing to pay you, and the minimum is $150.

There's other schools that are willing to pay you $300. You ain't going to let them leave, or you're like, nah, thug that out. Thug it out, bro. Reeshoot the portal. I'm going to be like, yes, listen, go somewhere where you can play. Yeah.

If he's telling me, like, I had a barrier, you're cutting my money, but you're not really cutting my money. I'm going to try to tell my kid to, hey, man, go earn it back. Oh, you know how I go once you hit that. Go earn it back because it's not really, but I'm saying, though, bro, that's not really teaching kids life shit, bro. I agree, but then the problem is that they're going to-

I'm all about life lessons within sports, bro. Only problem with that be him, they're going to bring in another say he's a running back. Yeah. He's getting 400. He's getting him by the character. Yeah. That one 50 is making, it's being spent somewhere else.

Yeah. Somebody going to get these snaps. Somebody's coming in for your position. Well, the running-back. I just meant like so far as basketball. I don't know how to football. I'm just saying around, even basketball. I'm giving you a million dollars,

and you're a point guard. And that year you was ass and then you come back for $150. I had to go find me a new point guard for 8.50. Cool, but just say, say if that point guard is not playing up to, I'm busting his ass in practice, he's not up to part either. Y'all got two years of bad recruitment and I'm killing him. I'm still here. Do I get a chance to play?

Well, next year, probably all three are going to be out of job. Likely. Listen listen listen to the this to the story Okay my bad I'm getting now I'm getting in the game Just say this second half of the year This first guard that I brought in to replace me He sucks

Yeah I'm back at the starting point guard And I'm doing my motherfucking thing Do I have a chance to earn my money back? Yeah possibly yeah That's what I'm saying That's what I'm like shit I'm gonna make my kids stay bro

You can't You can't always go here here Because that shit's going to end bro Because of the mentality, it's going to be like... I'm with you 100%. Like me and you, we all pretty much cup on the same cloth and the kind of stuff, but that's not going to have. That's not, I guess it's not really.

I was just saying what I would tell my kid, it's your life, bro, but I, in the real world, you can't do this shit. I agree to keep running. You know what I'm saying? Keep grinding. And if it's totally not the kid, like, I get y'all perfect example. Mick, the shit he did.

The shit he did. The ejecting his kid. Yeah. We're in the portal. We out of there. Yeah, we're going to poor. You mistreated my kid. You're embarrassing my kid in front of the world for the old reason.

He was OD. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Now we can leave. Because the foul thing is crazy. It wasn't. Because I'm like, nigga, you just got a million. You should be cool for the next four years. That's you.

Like, you're thinking like that. That's you. I'm telling you a good parent, though. Hey, my nigga. You're not a fuck-up. You're a huck-up. If you're leaving, you was a bitch, bro. You not a fucked up.

You had a trash-ass year, nigga? Yeah. I'm going to go get a new nigga. That's what anything in real life, bro. Go earn your shit. Go get your shit back. I want my little nigger to go get his shit back.

Only problem is being a fucked up parent. Imagine some of these kids and into that situations be fucked up at home. So they're the breadwinners for the family. They can't like, I can't take a pay. I ain't in there. That's why I'm telling you. I kind of start with the home with me. So if you're in a post-up situation, yeah, because you're still figuring out for your own family.

So I guess you don't have no real guidance. That's why I keep saying you ain't a fucked up parent. Like you did shit so you won't have to depend on your kids. Yeah, like. Bush McCray. I'm going to keep her job. Shit, I want my babies be richer than me, nigga. Yeah, I don't know.

Keep that shit going, because I want to spend y'all money. Without getting old, goddamn it. You see what I'm going to say. Reach me in the portal. They worry about it. I got you. That's just tough, bro.

Amen. It's crazy. Tell the dick that you're going to make $1 million a hit anyway. Hey, you about worth $1.50. That's a crazy evaluation. I thought you were no average 20. You average seven. They're trying to get you out there.

You was a four-point score of game, bro. I got a, who. You got to move on. What kind of schools? So do it be like bigger schools offering you or smaller schools? Shit. Like, do you know of like a situation where a kid was at like a big school and end up going to another big school? Yeah, even though they had a trash year?

Yeah. We've seen that a couple times. Not to try to talk shit about him, but Xavier Booker. Oh, good. He didn't get a lot of playing time. Yeah, you still. You still. You know, a lot better now, too.

Yeah, he's a lot better. Yeah, he's playing way better. But I'm just saying. True. Okay. Damn. That's tough. And you see a situation

like Florida. We talked about Florida almost dipped last year because, you know what I'm saying? Production where it was. But he was like, hey, also other people value me.

So they had a meeting in the minds and shit it worked out. But a lot of times, boy, it get wicked because so many people job is on the line. The person who gave you

their bread's on the line, that coach is on the line. Bro, we can't lose just because we give you this chicken, bro. Yeah. Like, you may not go to the NBA and this is your area.

I came up a meal as a freshman and fuck basketball. Now we all fired because you don't know how to handle money at 18. We ain't a portal, bro. Protect your chicken, man. There's a lot of money out here, man. Young boys are getting this money in NIL, man.
