| 0:00.0 | All right. Just getting warmed up. Band is back together. David, good to see you again, buddy. Rico, I know him and I both had some days off. So I can't laugh at it. And I just got a text from a NBA writer, not even in this city. So it's none of the locals. And it was just simple. While I don't think it'll happen, you have to check in on it. Like the Pistons |
| 0:22.8 | have to check in. You've suffered for so long. You've built this right. You have a war chest |
| 0:29.4 | where you can't even keep everybody you have. And the East is open enough. This puts you in the |
| 0:35.8 | finals. That was big, that was, I'm summarizing the text I just received. So I want you to know, someone who covers the league doesn't think you're a cracking. Okay. Was this, was this person colorically challenged? Scandy. No? Oh, okay. No, just a normal human. Okay. Okay. |
| 0:55.1 | No, no. So look. |
| 0:55.9 | David. I was like, no. |
| 1:00.9 | Then I, did you say they're color challenged? |
| 1:04.9 | Chlorically. |
| 1:06.0 | Oh, I'd tell some of Kenny's family talks. |

| 1:20.6 | All right, David, your thought. |
| 1:23.1 | Yonis has a for-sale sign around his neck. |
| 1:25.3 | He's in a claiming race, okay? |
| 1:29.4 | What do you want your team to do? |
| 1:38.1 | I want my team to check in. I don't think Detroit will trade for Yonis. I don't think that will happen. |
| 1:42.9 | I don't think they'll want to give up what they need to give up. I'm not even saying I want Yonis, |
| 2:02.3 | but you have to, you have to make the phone call. You would look like an idiot if he does get dealt and you're looking at it and saying, wow, we could have offered more than that or we could have offered this. That's all he went for? That's all he went for. You have to do it. You have to make the phone call. But, you know, I don't think people in this town want, yonnas. |
| 2:06.1 | I don't think people in this town want to move to be made because I was furious listening in on callers today saying, I don't want to give up Tobias Harris. |
| 2:15.2 | Why not give up Tobias Harris? |
| 2:34.4 | Is he a superstar? Do you hear Kate talk about it? You hear Kate talk about him last night? I've heard them say some things about him.
