0:00.0 | We're going to be talking about Yannis resigning with the Milwaukee Bucks and we're going to talk to our old BS podcast friend Mark Cuban about everything that's changed in the NBA these last 20 years. |
0:11.8 | It's brought to you by the ringer.com and the ringer podcast network where you can find a podcast called the rewatchables where we did one that I knew is going to cause probably a riot with the rewatchables fans. We did country strong. |
0:24.0 | It's the worst movie we've ever done in the rewatchables. It's endearingly rewatchable. It has a kind of strangely huge audience and we put it up last night. It was the all time example of a one for us. |
0:36.3 | I'll be making it up to you with a major movie on the rewatchables next Monday night. Also one more podcast known for me. Book a basketball the final episode of the first half of season three will be going up Wednesday night. It's Chris Weber. |
0:49.4 | That's what we're talking about. Stay tuned for that and don't forget to check out all of the awesome podcast on the ringer podcast network. We have a very famous person coming on Thursday's pod. So stay tuned for that. |
1:19.4 | Mark. |
1:24.4 | Mark. Kevin's coming up in one second. One or talk about Yannis signing the super max extension today. This was unexpected. |
1:33.4 | There were a lot of indications that people were starting to get worried about this. He had gone a little bit radio sound the last week and a half basically since the box down on the trade fell through for them. |
1:43.4 | And there was this feeling like holy shit if they gave away all those picks and the pick swaps for Drew how day. And then they don't make the finals this year. Then Yannis just leaves in the summer of 2021. |
1:55.4 | This is one of the all time disasters for a small market team. Nope. Yannis signed the super max for 228 million dollars. It doesn't mean he's going to be in Milwaukee for the five years after the extension when it kicks in. |
2:09.4 | You know, he could demand a trade two, three years from now like a lot of these guys to, but it's a really good sign. |
2:16.4 | And instead of doing winners and losers, I'm just doing winners because this is a rare case where I feel like everybody is a winner in Yannis signing the super max. For instance, Milwaukee. |
2:26.4 | I know this is hard to believe. I think this is the greatest box moment in 49 years. They won the title in 1971. They swept the bullets. They had one of the greatest start to finish seasons in the history of the NBA. |
2:37.4 | They're never mentioned as one of the three or four best teams ever. The leagues a little weird at that point. People are starting to drift to the NBA and from a player talent standpoint, maybe not as strong as some of the other great teams in the competitions they've had. |
2:51.4 | But they had Kareem early at his apex just awesome. Now you're asked a Robertson. And that was in 1971. I was a year and a half. 18 months old something like that. So since then, here were the other teams that were in the league. |
3:05.4 | So since then, here were the other possibilities for greatest box moments since they won that title. |
3:10.4 | Making the 1974 finals and winning the double overtime game in Boston Garden, sending the finals back to Milwaukee for a game seven, which they promptly lost. That's in the discussion. |
3:22.4 | They swept the 1983 Celtics. The only time a Larry Bird team has gotten swept in a playoff series so they have that. |
3:28.4 | They fleece the Clippers on the Terry Cummings trade. They traded Terry Cummings or they got Terry Cummings. The Clippers got Marcus Johnson. Marcus Johnson got hurt shortly after and that was an awesome trade. So that's one of their biggest wins. |
3:41.4 | The fear the deer season, whatever year that was when Andrew Bogot was was really good. |
3:47.4 | Like 2010 range. |
3:50.4 | Fear the deer became a thing. It was it used the internet a little bit. That was fun. |
