free how about alan westford? Go ahead, Al. Hey, guys. Before I get to the South, I think it's a great idea that John Henry's selling socks tickets to share at Costco. I was able to go down the toll paper out last night, and right between the Sharman and the Angel Soft, I got a great pair of opening day tickets. On the self, I'm starting to worry. At the beginning of the year, with all of Stevens' moves, I had a little porzinger's in my pants, but last night was really bad. And when I think this team needs, we need some grit. We need a PJ Brown type, not a Jay Crowder type, but a PJ type, like we had in 2008. I'm not up to speed on all this trade exception. You need a, you know, a Harvard degree for all. Hey, Al. Yeah. Thanks for a guy. Personally, I don't think they need anything. They don't need it. They have the best talent in the NBA. They have the best team in the NBA.

They don't need to add. If they come up short, it's not because of their personnel. Their personnel is there. They're there. You don't think they could use some balls? Yeah, okay. Sure. But why, you know, why can they be from the guys they have? I'm trading for balls? like and this is why I thought True Holiday was here.

Okay, he's got some balls and some can they instill that themselves? I'm trading for balls. And this is why I thought True Holiday was here.

Okay?

He's got some balls and some grit and some championship medal.

So you added that.

You eliminated guys that I think were a distraction or an impediment and Marcus

Martin Grant Williams.

So I think you've done that thing.

And by the way, why should you have to trade for it?

If Jason Tatum has been to game six of the NBA finals and game seven of the Eastern Conference finals and is now 26, 27, how eight years in the, how long has he been? Like, it's time. It's, it's, no, no, they don't need to add to prop him up. It's time for him. No, not add, mad. I need their best two players to get mad. Yeah. Well, and if they don't have it, then they don't need to add to prop him up it's time for him no not add mad i need their best two players to get mad yeah well and if they don't have it then they don't have it like that thing last night like but this isn't on like the gm no tatam saying last night well bad week of work you know like really like that's where you're going to chuck this up to right now i just that annoyed me last night and night and last Saturday against the Clippers. I mean, Gasper said he isn't worried.

So, I mean, but if this were a proven team, I wouldn't be worried. Sure. Right? If you've seen them do what it takes when it matters most, you say, yeah, it's January. They're having to their, okay, yeah, I get it. They'll flip the switch. but if you've never done it, I don't know.

Until you know what you got and what they're okay yeah i get it they'll flip the switch but if you've never done it i don't know until you know what you got and what they're capable truly capable i don't know how you wouldn't be worried about a bad stretch no in fact not only if they've not done it they've done the opposite they've wilted in some of those big moments dan and burlington on the patrice thanks for hanging on dan what do you got so i thought that matt pat was the biggest slob ever. Have you seen Van Pelt's stomach and neck? I'm, like, really concerned Trent Brown is going to resign now. You're going to take one look at Van Pelt and say, I can't wait to go to offensive meetings with this guy. To me, but heavy, he's and soft serve. It's not nice. She's put on a little weight since his playing days. And Patricia's lost some. If I went from professional athlete like Van Pelt was, a terrible quarterback for the bills, and I got to, you know, move on to a behind-the-desk type of role, I would also be pounding burgers. These guys go in two directions when they're done playing. All of a sudden, they're half the man they used to be.

Like, I look at Teddy Bruske and I go like, you didn't look like that, you know, when you were playing, my man.
