Listen to Absolute Season 1, Taser Incorporated, on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 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. We dive into the competitive world of streaming. What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core. There are so many stories out there,
Starting point is 00:00:54 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. Listen to Good Company on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Runs in the Family, an incredible true story of football, fatherhood, and belonging, written with and about Las Vegas Raiders running backs coach Dylan McCullough. It's the story of a football coach and father of four who sees his life forever changed by the unsealing of his adoption records. And it's got a twist you won't believe. Based on the viral ESPN story I did a few years ago,
Starting point is 00:01:42 this book will blow your mind and bring you to tears. Buy Runs in the Family, wherever books are sold. I'm Clayton English. I'm Greg Glott. And this is season two of the War on Drugs podcast. Yes, sir. Last year, a lot of the problems of the drug war. This year, a lot of the biggest names in music and sports.
Starting point is 00:01:58 This kind of starts that a little bit, man. We met them at their homes. We met them at their recording studios. Stories matter, and it brings a face to them. It makes it real. It really does. It makes it real. Listen to new episodes of the War on Drugs podcast season two
Starting point is 00:02:12 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The Volume. All right, good morning. Y'all never see us here on a Sunday, but you know, when duty calls, we show up to work, man. We'll be right back. Brother Bishop, my brother Teague. Fellas, how y'all doing this morning, man? Cool. I'm good, bro. Chillin'. Come on, man. We had a hell of a night last night at the Royal Rumble. We'll talk about that later. But listen, we thought that was a thing, man. We get home, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:02:52 Everybody go about their separate ways. And Shams go crazy. Everybody thought, shout out to the Centel. Everybody thought that that was the Centel report. Yeah, shout out to the guys. And I thought that was hilarious, man. They thought that Shams, he got hacked. It was like, hey, send the video, put the paper up.
Starting point is 00:03:06 Nah, this is a real deal. One of the craziest trades in NBA history took place early, early, early yesterday night. Well, this morning, excuse me, you got Luka Doncic going to the Lakers for Anthony Davis. Some other moving pieces as well, but that is the general consistency of that trade. Fellas, what are your thoughts about that? I mean, I like it on both sides. I'm going to keep it real. You you like it i think the lakers won you got a 25 year old damn near instant legend in the league but you had to do something because brian on his way out but then shit if ad can stay healthy the
Starting point is 00:03:38 the maps would be all right it'd be cool so you got you feel uh when I first read it, I didn't like it. I was like, why would they trade Luka Doncic, a perennial superstar, all-star every year, for our agent, Anthony Davis, who we know has an injury problem. He's been healthy the last couple of years, but for the most part, he's been injured his whole career. I'm like, I just don't like it. But when you read about it and see where they're going as a franchise Dallas Mavericks, then it makes a little more sense.
Starting point is 00:04:09 But I still don't like it, though. Well, shit, let's just break it down from, you know what I'm saying, every perspective in the situation. You talked about that, Luka, you know what I'm saying, trading a superstar that rarely, rarely, rarely happens, especially in the midst of his prime. Now, they're talking about his conditioning. They say him being 270.
Starting point is 00:04:28 I mean, listen, man, we know he always been hefty. But 270 is crazy, but he's going to play his way back in the shape. Yeah, he'll be all right, bro. I don't see what's wrong with this shit. I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with it. The Lakers won, bro. Man, that is crazy. I mean, I feel like it has to be something, bro.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Like you said, Nico, we'll talk about the GM for the match. We'll talk about it's going to be a treacherous offseason because did they want to pay him that 5-3-45? I mean, you don't want to pay nobody that if you don't believe they're going to be around. Like, you don't believe you're going to be healthy or in shape to play or to perform at a high level. So where they want to be, they want to win the championship. And they think they had the pieces around them to do that.
Starting point is 00:05:08 But Luka out of shape or whatever he is, seems like he can't get to the point where he needs to be to lead the franchise. Obviously, we know he don't play defense. And it's a lot of stuff that lacks in his game defensively that helps win championships. And he gets picked on during the year. Trying to beat a Boston Celtics team last year, they was picking on him. Whoever he was guarding, they put him in a picking row,
Starting point is 00:05:31 trying to get the switch. So they was looking at that and looking like, man, we got Kyrie, who's still playing at a high level. Then if you get us Anthony Davis, who's been playing great this year at a high level, maybe we'll find somebody, find a rhythm with them too. Make a new duo. Maybe we can make a run at it. That's interesting that you say that because, and you
Starting point is 00:05:49 talked about this earlier in the year, they were winning games without Luka. Now that second stretch we said was Paul's going to be a little bit harder, but they looked like a really good team. Anthony Davis just told them last week, hey, I've been telling y'all I'm a power forward, not a center. And they got two bigs that, man, him and Lively is dangerous, bro.
Starting point is 00:06:06 Yeah, he get a chance to play the foe for sure. I don't know if this is what he thought, but shit, he there now. I don't know, man. I don't know if I, I don't know. When I'm thinking about it sitting here more, I don't know. That trade just don't make sense to me. I don't like it. Like, I love it.
Starting point is 00:06:26 But I'm talking about like right now, the Lakers ain't worth a quarter. Nothing. You too. You done. But for the future-wise, bro, so far as a business standpoint, I get a 25-0 young gun like that.
Starting point is 00:06:39 Yeah, the Lakers won. Bro, it's lit, bro. The Lakers won. It's lit, bro. And listen, they can be trashed the rest of the season. But just the fact that you got Luka and LeBron playing together is crazy. Nah, they won. Bro, it's lit, bro. It's lit, bro. And listen, they can be trash the rest of the season, but just the fact that you got Luka and LeBron playing together is crazy. Nah, they won, but I think
Starting point is 00:06:49 it's a bigger play here. Like, now that it happened, obviously the Lakers know. Our franchise is Luka hand now. Like, Bron, you done. You on the way out. We gonna build around Luka. And he understand that. He 40 years old. But
Starting point is 00:07:04 what does that mean for Bron? That was going to be the next question. Do Bron ask for a trade and go to Golden State and try to win with them boys? He better not go to Golden State, bro. He want to play with his dog. DG, bro.
Starting point is 00:07:20 He want to play with Draymond. Would y'all rather see him back in Cleveland or see him at Golden State? You can't trade nobody on Cleveland. Do the Lakers do him a favor and just let him rock? Like, let him go? Yeah, just let him go. I think it makes more sense to go to Golden State because shit, everybody on their way out over there.
Starting point is 00:07:36 You don't want to fuck up no chemistry over there in Cleveland. They got a good thing going. So just to have Brian over there for a year or two and blow that team up after y'all did all this to be successful is pointless. That's crazy. Y'all being generous. I don't care about Cleveland.
Starting point is 00:07:49 If I'm the Lakers, y'all want LeBron? Cool. Y'all going to have to say something. Nah, but Kenny Atkinson, bro, he done kind of built that team up and got them rolling. You don't want to kind of throw it off. I'm saying if I'm the Lakers, y'all done ruined y'all year, basically. Facts. Definitely.
Starting point is 00:08:04 Y'all was in with the fifth seed. Mm-hmm. Y'all about to drop tremendously. Because Luka ain't playing no time soon. Bron about to be a one-man band. Him and Austin Reeves. Him and his son. All right.
Starting point is 00:08:17 Bron, he about to get his shot. Yeah. So they probably going to drop out of the playoff race probably fairly quickly. Yeah. One game up from being ninth. out of the playoff race probably fairly quickly. Yeah. They one game up from being ninth. The Suns on their ass
Starting point is 00:08:29 or three games or whatever it is. Yeah. It's not going. Yeah. They're not getting Luka back no time soon. Them trading in here
Starting point is 00:08:38 just for Brian and getting missed is crazy. That's what's so important. You let him like you got to let Brian make a decision at this point like hey Brian
Starting point is 00:08:46 do you wanna rock out and be with Luka cause if he do Luka gonna end up being like me and ET was talking he was like if he get around Brian
Starting point is 00:08:55 Luka gonna end up being the best player in the world for the next 10 years cause he gonna learn how to work how to train his body learn how to eat right
Starting point is 00:09:03 and he gonna take the game to a different level because he going to be around Brian Brown, the best athlete ever. Look at him at 40. Does Brian want to be a mentor, though? I mean, at this point, he ain't got no choice. I'm saying with them, I think Brian's still like, I want to hoop.
Starting point is 00:09:17 I want to do what I want to do. Like, Luke is cool. He can hold it down. That's what I'm saying, dude. Do they let Brian leave? Lakers do Bron a favor and like, hey,
Starting point is 00:09:27 wherever you want to go, we'll make it feasible for you. Like, we ain't going to go crazy on the trade. We know we building around Luca. We're going to try to get
Starting point is 00:09:35 some draft picks, assets like that, and some young players. And you can go to Golden State. Trade Bron for Kaminga. I mean, that'd be the craziest trade in NBA history. LeBron James for Kaminga I mean that'd be the craziest trade in NBA history
Starting point is 00:09:46 LeBron James for Kaminga and y'all talking about letting him go to Cleveland for free if they trade LeBron James for Jonathan Kaminga bro people are going to put small his name forever
Starting point is 00:09:53 you got to let him go though you do got to let him go if this is a blindside trade for him and it's real life you got to let Brian I was going to ask y'all that next question now
Starting point is 00:10:01 we on some 520 shit do y'all believe Brian didn't know about this trade I believe it okay I don't know about this trade? I believe it. Okay. I don't know. Ever since Brian read them books, bro.
Starting point is 00:10:10 I don't know. Yeah, I guess. Brian be lying to us sometimes. I believe it. But I genuinely don't think he knew about this one. I think he would have told AD. Yeah, that's his man. Yeah, I think they really rock out, too.
Starting point is 00:10:21 Yeah. And listen, Ron Palinka just got job security for a lifetime. He put off Finesse. Everybody was calling for his head. I got Luka Doncic. Y'all shut the fuck up for the next four years. I've been there a long time.
Starting point is 00:10:31 Yeah. And they all with Clutch Sports, Brian, AD. Somebody knew. Yeah, bro. I don't know. I'm saying like
Starting point is 00:10:39 they would have said something to AD. Like if AD really didn't know like Rich, Brian, they would have been like, hey, bro. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:46 Now, I wonder if that's the case, if this is true, that we're going to go with the, LeBron didn't know. Do he feel a way around about this? Hell yeah, bro. He don't feel a way. He do, bro.
Starting point is 00:10:55 I'm always the reason somebody get traded, bro. I am the front office, bro. Niggas get caught by a person. Shit got to go through me, bro. And you trading my dog away. Not Austin Reeves, not my son. Trading my nigga away, bro. And you trading my dog away. Not Austin Reeves. Not my son.
Starting point is 00:11:05 Trading my nigga away, bro. Nah, he feel. But Bron is a basketball genius and a savant. He know, like, oh, you got to trade that for Luka. You got to do that. No, I ain't saying, like, he mad. I think he's just more, though, like, he didn't know. Let me know what y'all doing, bro.
Starting point is 00:11:22 So we can be on the same page. That's a hell of a surprise I have, though. Yeah, bro, it is, bro. Like, shit, we still hooping, man. Like, I don't want to just see AD just go and not know. It's cool to get Luka, but Luka ain't valuable to me right now. Yeah. Yeah, and also notable, they kept
Starting point is 00:11:38 the pick in that trade. We talk about some of the other moving pieces that's going on. Possibly with Jimmy Butler, things of that nature. The Lakers kept the pick in that situation, so they could possibly go get another big. I know they were looking at somebody like Valachunis, or they was looking at Vooch and stuff like that. Man, there's some other options for this team to get decent this year.
Starting point is 00:11:55 They're going to need him fast. L.A. lit, bro. You know how many people are about to come play in Los Angeles with Luka, bro? You know how crazy that's about to be. Max Christie ended up going to Dallas, too. Let's not forget him in the trade. That's another pickup for Dallas. Let's not forget Jalen Hood.
Starting point is 00:12:14 Shefino got traded for... He got traded to Utah. What? It was $110,000? Yeah. Jeff, that'll be messy. For a Cybertruck. We got traded for $110, cyber truck we got traded for 110 beds we get you 55 000 a piece for a hood chefinho that's the equivalent of moosey said i put a lot for you thousand dollars that's for showing a soaking session on me you gotta trade it for
Starting point is 00:12:41 get traded for a soaking session it's crazy i swear to god if i got traded if i got traded for get traded for a subconcession it's crazy I swear to God if I got traded if I got traded and wasn't no picks I ain't if I got traded and wasn't no picks or a player you got me fucked
Starting point is 00:12:52 that's what I was going to ask you in this situation it's not like disrespectful to Anthony Davis because Anthony Davis is a champion
Starting point is 00:12:58 and he got traded for one of the best players of all time is this a situation where people are like alright I can see where I got traded from you looking like
Starting point is 00:13:03 y'all traded me for this nigga I know a lot of cops of all time. It's just a situation where people are like, all right, I can see where I got traded from. You looking like, y'all traded me for this nigga? 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
Starting point is 00:13:18 dedicated to a future where the answer will always be no. Across the country, cops call this taser the revolution. But not everyone was convinced it was that simple. Cops believed everything that taser told them. From Lava for Good and the team that brought you Bone Valley

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,
Starting point is 00:15:37 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.
Starting point is 00:16:17 And hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets. Listen to Good Company on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. No, I'm just saying, if I'm Hush, if you know. Oh, shit. You legit traded me for a night out at Lyft. Nah, for sure. nah I'm just saying if I'm hood Shafino oh shit he he be home he can play you legit traded me for a night
Starting point is 00:16:48 out of the lift nah for sure don't hear anything what's that shit a championship seminar y'all traded me for a washer and dryer like for real bro
Starting point is 00:16:56 like he got traded for a good podcast set up nah thanks he traded him for a podcast he got traded for Gills Arena yeah he got traded Podcasts set up. Nah, thanks. He traded him for a podcast. He got traded for Gills Arena.
Starting point is 00:17:10 Yeah, he got traded for Gills Arena. Shit, Monday. He can't afford the rest of the week. And that's fucked up. But I'm glad he get a chance to go. He get a chance to play. He ain't never get a chance to play anywhere else. But it was just shocking when I read that report. I was like, we ain't get traded for nothing.
Starting point is 00:17:25 And that's why I was going to ask you, like, the funny part about it is, like, the other pieces in the trade, like, we always talk about the notable names, but, like, the other people who are Kadeem, like, draft capitals, like, damn, they got to move, too. Like, Morris Twinn, he got to get up out of there, too. So, like, so many people happy probably go to another situation. But on the other side of that, like, we talked about the whole Lakers situation. Dallas, man, if that works out
Starting point is 00:17:45 Kyrie Irving and Anthony Davis is a hell of a pick and roll yeah that's a nice duo they got I mean it ain't a listen Dallas
Starting point is 00:17:52 it seem like they lost the trade cause we don't know what Luka gonna do honestly we don't know if he ever gonna be the player that everybody think he can be
Starting point is 00:18:01 we know he great we don't know if he gonna ever be healthy in shape we don't know if he gonna ever be healthy, in shape. We don't know if he cares about basketball like that. But, you know what I mean? He is. That's the scary part.
Starting point is 00:18:09 If he really locked in, bro, or if he, like you said, fall some of that burn, like, rub off on him, it's gonna be over, bro. Yeah, I think his first year, he gonna be so motivated
Starting point is 00:18:18 because he got traded to try to prove people wrong. And he probably gonna kill that first year. And he gonna especially kill Dallas. He going to fuck Dallas up. But I don't know how long that's going to last. I think his shelf life was a little shorter than we all expect.
Starting point is 00:18:32 I think Dallas kind of know that. Man, he only got three or four years. He going to be great. Hell no. So I asked this question as a counter. That's what they got to look at. That's what they got to think. Behead.
Starting point is 00:18:42 Now, on the other side of that, if they're wrong, if Luka Goals plays 10 years at a high level, is this one of the worst trades ever? Bro, he 25, bro. This is going to be the worst trade ever, bro. I'm saying they might think he not going to be the person for you. They think he probably going to be unhealthy.
Starting point is 00:18:57 Yeah. And shout out to... Or not in shape or whatever. I'm risking that, bro. He only going to be 29, bro. But they said they don't want to pay him that 535. 535 for it. All right. Y'all going to see. I'm risking that, bro. He only going to be 29, bro. But they said they don't want to pay him that 535. 535 for it. All right, y'all going to see.
Starting point is 00:19:08 I'm not saying it. Wait till y'all see who pull up in L.A. with Luka. Wait. He getting two more niggas out there with him, bro. Man, I don't think. I don't know if people love
Starting point is 00:19:20 playing with Luka, bro. All right. All right, so this is the statement from Nico Harrison, the GM of the Mavs. He was just like, it's my job to make tough decisions. And he was like, we really feel like we got ahead of what was going to be a tumultuous summer. He ain't being eligible for a Supermax in a year away.
Starting point is 00:19:33 Basically, be able to opt out any contract. It's like we had to get in front of that. We knew teams. They had it out there. Teams had been loading up trying to sign him once that became available. I don't believe that they really shot Luka Doncic like that because I think we would have heard something about it. The NBA is not good at being quiet. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:19:47 I know we have some good people that be insiders, but the NBA is not a quiet place. If he was getting shot around, people would have knew. I think Nico just found a lick. He was like, oh, I can get Anthony Davis
Starting point is 00:19:56 because, like you said, despite the injury, he's been great the last two years and he's been killing. Nico ready to win right now. I respect it, bro. Swear to God, I respect it. And if y'all go and make noise in the playoffs and do y'all thing and fuck around and win, I respect it, bro. Swear to God, I respect it. And if y'all go and make noise
Starting point is 00:20:05 in the playoffs and do y'all thing and fuck around and win, you a legend, bro. Longevity business standpoint, nigga, LA is back. Yeah, they are. I just think
Starting point is 00:20:14 he said facts, but a Supermax in Dallas and he like, man, he really don't care. Like, that's what that sound like to me.
Starting point is 00:20:22 They don't think Luka care. Yeah. So, we give him a Supermax to a player we know that don't care. That's what that sound like to me. They don't think Luka care. Yeah. So, we give him a super max to a player we know that don't care. We fucked. We let somebody else
Starting point is 00:20:31 get somebody who don't care. We'll try to get some people here. Isn't that bad though? His productivity is high though. Being a fat ass out of the train, bro. I got to stand up for all the big niggas, bro.
Starting point is 00:20:41 No, I'm not saying he ain't productive. Obviously, we all think Luka cold, but it's the way he play. Like, I know you watch the games, but, like, his effort ain't the same all the time. No, you right. And he a crybaby. Yes. That is one thing I do hate about him.
Starting point is 00:20:57 Luka Doncic. Look at them numbers. The talent, bro. I get it. Hard work beats talent. My daddy used to say that bullshit since I was five. But damn, bro. That is one of the best foreigners in the league, if not the best.
Starting point is 00:21:14 Nah, he cold. That's why him going to the Lakers is going to light a fire on them. Like, Dallas, you can get away with more stuff. It's a small market. Yeah. People, hey, Luka the savior. Everything Luka do is right. If they don't got the best players around them,
Starting point is 00:21:29 you can just blame it on other people. Nobody ever blame Luka, right? L.A. ain't like that. L.A. ain't like that. You ass in L.A.? Yeah. You ain't in shape. You see how they did the way I heard it?
Starting point is 00:21:40 Motherfuckers still crying. Yeah. I'm just saying. He should try to go back to it. Yeah, it's just a bunch of, hey, it was on Brian's ass in first years.
Starting point is 00:21:48 Most definitely. So, he gonna feel that pressure and I think he gonna respond. I think he good enough. I think he great enough to respond and probably gonna have
Starting point is 00:21:55 a crazy career. Probably gonna be the third best liker ever. This is. Cause he what, 25? Yeah, bro. He played for 10 years
Starting point is 00:22:05 to 35? Bro. And they going to give him He going to be right after Magic and Kobe. Damn. I mean, Kareem, I mean,
Starting point is 00:22:13 but shit. It's lit in LA, bro. They got a white boy. He's, bro, he Tom Cruise, bro. Luca and Austin Rivers? I mean, Austin Reeves, excuse me,
Starting point is 00:22:24 as a one to two? If Austin Reeves behave, because a one to two if Austin Reeves behave because you can get out of here. Don't get the clown and don't miss it. Brian, I need too much.

I mean, they're going to finish this year out, obviously, but they ain't about to win nothing. Bron probably – Bron is going to have to leave or retire. I was going to say, is LeBron going to retire soon? Yeah, but this was like – LA pushed him there. Yeah. Yeah, go ahead and get your step in that right direction, bro.
Starting point is 00:23:20 We gave you the extension pause, but we're not about to play with you, bro. No, no. We found our guy. That is tough, man. This is a crazy trade. I think Brian got a lot to give to the league still. Let's read some of the tweets from the players around the league. Hey, that shit was hilarious.
Starting point is 00:23:36 Everybody was like, what the fuck? It was a lot of pissed off women last night. Niggas was on Twitter till 3 in the morning. Don't worry, bro. Playboy mentioned us back. Like, just, I seen... Kevin Durant made a statement about it. I seen Bam out of bio say some stuff.
Starting point is 00:24:00 Yeah, that's what everybody has been saying. Like, who the fuck trades Luka Doncic? What KD said? At 25, bro. You never think Luka would get traded at this age. Midseason.
Starting point is 00:24:09 The NBA is a wild place, man. If he can get traded, then anybody is up for grabs. For the fans, for somebody spectating. It's pretty fun. I know it's kind of nerve-wracking. I can't see. Make it big. Reese, I love you sick.
Starting point is 00:24:22 Probably for Luka, everybody in Dallas, LA, AD, for everybody involved. I'm sure their heads are spinning right now. And you know what's crazy, too? I didn't see. He'll make it big. Reese, I know you're sick. Probably for Luka, everybody in Dallas, LA, AD, for everybody involved. I'm sure their heads are spinning right now. And you know what's crazy, too? I didn't think about it. The money aspect. He lost that bread. Who, Luka?
Starting point is 00:24:32 Yeah. For the Supermax? Yeah. He don't give a fuck. He'll make it up on the back end. Damn, you got to think how many fans got tickets to see the Mavs this week
Starting point is 00:24:42 and they got to go watch AD. It ain't bad, but niggas is shitty. Nigga, get rid of them 77 jerseys. I'm sorry. Like, if this don't work, Nico, you're cooked. You're cooked. And you know what's crazy? If it don't work, nobody ain't going to remember him. What is all the bullshit?
Starting point is 00:24:57 Tyrese the 12th, 30th, what you was on, cuz? Sean's got a hack. Everybody thought Sean's got a hack, bro. Huh? Josh Hart. Hart everybody so confused Jalen Brunson holy shit what if AD get to start acting
Starting point is 00:25:08 like he did in the world remember when AD started forcing a hand that'd be insane bro nah bro and he on the team where he can get the ball Sean's got hacked
Starting point is 00:25:17 he said CJ McCollum he can't tell what's real or fake anymore Luke we're really going to the lake nigga you are the president of the union you can stop this, he can't tell what's real or fake anymore. Luka really going to the lake. Nigga, you are the president of the union. You can stop this.
Starting point is 00:25:28 No, you can't. Veto. No. Him and Andre Iguodala don't have no pool, bro. It's over. That's crazy, man. It was a wild, wild night, man. I'm excited.
Starting point is 00:25:38 Nah, that's a hell of a trade, man. So seeing stuff like this, now do you trade Embiid? That's a hell of a question. You can come on to LA. I'm just saying, do you do you trade Embiid? That's a hell of a question. You can come on LA. I'm just saying, do you get rid of Embiid? You can get rid of Luka. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:50 Billy, you can get rid of Embiid. Let's just prove anything is possible, bro. So now, who we trade Embiid for? Listen, I don't even want to cut you off, but that's a great point.
Starting point is 00:26:01 Now, what's the asking price for people? Because I feel like this trade was kind of like, I mean, it was not a lot of picks involved in this situation. Nah, like now who I get for him be?
Starting point is 00:26:09 What does Jimmy Butler get now? What's the price? That's now the question. What's the price now? I don't know why you don't fuck about Jimmy Butler no more. What's up?
Starting point is 00:26:18 Jimmy about to be in the news about the Wednesday. Don't you worry. He about to up the scope. I'm just thinking now, do Philly trade him be? Because if Dallas feel like that about Luka, he out of shape. We don't know where he going to be in the next five years, whatever.
Starting point is 00:26:33 Where do, how do Philly feel about Embiid? I know the owner came out and said, we're happy with Joel, but. I was going to say, now the difference is, well, I don't know. Derrick Moore is a liar. Yeah. James Harden said it. Yeah. Normally, Derrick Moore stick behind his people, but hey, I don't know. Derrick Morris is a liar. It's hard to say that. Normally, Derrick Morris stick behind his people.
Starting point is 00:26:47 But, hey, I don't know. Yeah. I feel you, Paul Pierce, on that trade. LeBron and Bronny back to Cleveland. Build around Luka is the only way to save the Lakers. That's pretty much how I feel, too. If you Cleveland, who you giving up? If they say you can get LeBron and Bronny right now, who you giving up?
Starting point is 00:27:04 Evan. Give me Evan Mobley. The Lakers out of pocket if they don't let him just ride. If you try to take some people from Cleveland, you got to take like Matt Struess, Isaac Okoro, and Karis LeVert. But if it is a trade, bro, I want Evan Mobley.
Starting point is 00:27:19 You can't get Evan Mobley, Jerry Allen. Yes, I can. You can't get none of them four. You can't get none of them four. You can't get none of them four. All right, bro. This is not my problem, bro. Yes, bro. It is, because you fucked me. Ron, Ron going to come.
