Jeff Mosher, hello.

Hey, what's going on?

I'm not sure it was a win-win for Grimes.

I mean, he doesn't lose, but I mean. not sure it was a win-win for Grimes. I mean, he doesn't lose, but I mean...

Well, it's a win-win because his ask was preposterous.

Yeah, it was, but he was trying to exert leverage that he didn't have, which you get.

But they probably could have figured out a one-year balloon payment type deal.

So at least give him a little bit more money than the qualifying offer, but he was asking for

20-some million a year. I mean, you're a 10-point-of-game score. Come on, dude. Yeah. You know,

what was last year when they were playing against somebody and was the guy that used to play for the Sixers. Yeah. And he's like, hey, next year, you're going to be standing in that corner over there, watch it in B. So shut your mouth when they were playing. The guy was playing for the Cavs last year. Oh, man, I can't believe I can't think of his name. I can think of Kate Scott saying his name when he hit the three all the time. I can't think of it either, but I know what you're saying. Well, anyway. Yeah, yeah. Let's start with Brown and where this is today. Has this blown, he's going to talk in the next couple of minutes here, I would imagine. Practices about over. Does he flash his smile, say this is all

blown out of proportion, or does he comment further on this today that this thing is not over

with? I don't think he's ever really said that maybe once he said it gets blown out of proportion,

but I mean, he's usually, what he usually

does is tell the people that, yes, he's frustrated and this is how he copes, you know, with the

reading thing on the sideline. He explained that, you know, that was his way of being able to cope

and find some inner peace. And, you know, obviously his tweet is, you know, very religious. And it did, or from the Bible, and it did insinuate not wanting to be there. So he'll have to explain that. But something tells me he's going to explain his way around it. Assure everybody, it's fine. And move on. And then, you know, five, six weeks from now when he has no targets, then we'll go through it all over again.

Well, I mean, he did have, like, things like this in the past, and they kind of went away.

Yeah, then they always do.
