Tampa with you.

Welcome to tampering.

We're just a beautiful game of basketball that we all love and talk about every single day.

Sam Panic.

To be able to weigh people together.

Portedly at the center of an NBA investigation into tampering accusations. And the message to executive in the league is not talking about players on other teams. What did I do? The charges filed impermissible contact. What's right or wrong? Tampering charges are really difficult to prove. You know me, I talk. It's kind of awkward to even talk about.

Can't he mention deans anymore?

I ask me what I like to play with Cameron to Graham. Trial, you're one with the ones. Is that what I decide? Everybody, you know, I have tamper with the guys. I didn't tamper. I'm just telling you what happened. I'm just telling you what happened. I'm just telling you what happened. Hello and welcome to the Athletic NBA show.

This is the tampering podcast.

Hosted by Sam Amick, as always, I'm here with the one and only Jamal Crawford coming at us from the Orlando bubble.

Jamal, Brooklyn Nets Guard, that sounds kind of weird. What's up, my friend?

It does sound weird, but it sounds good to me.

It does sound good.

Yeah, very excited about getting a call to come and actually being here and having a chance

to really, you know, make some noise as a group, and I'm excited about the opportunity.

Jamal, you, first of all, as always, thank you for doing this.

You've been good to me when it comes to having these conversations for a lot of years, and

that is not overlooked at all.

We were talking offline a minute ago about the real-life impact of this opportunity that

you've gotten.

You were talking about your family going camping and a trip that you were supposed to be on.

I mean, this is a good reason to miss the trip.
