Yeah, messy locker room situation. I don't know if Doc Rivers is the first guy on my list

that I'm going to have come in and handle it.

This is the the opening day mailbag extravaganza for the athletic MVA show podcast. I believe

we're live now. I think we are. You can't get a boy out of practice after after he had

his phone in his pocket and he didn't he didn't set this thing live. You can submit questions

in the chat. You can submit questions all over social media with a hashtag ask Dave and

we'll get to him. We'll get to him. We'll have fun. We're going to have Nate Duncan

stop him by David Aldridge, Marcus Thompson. We'll take the questions. We'll talk about

all the storylines. Not just Ben Simmons. And what's the way to put this in his ass

battery of a way to get thrown out of Philadelphia and traded out of Philadelphia? Like it's

here's the thing. It's so unprofessional and yet I'm in. Like I just I'm in on the chaos

of it all. Well, you said this in the pre-recording before we thought we were live before before

we thought we were live or when we thought we were. Well, we thought we were live, but

we weren't actually live. But this is what he should have been doing from day one. Like

this is it's it actually pushes everything for the timeline quicker. I had a time now.

He just lost money in the process of doing it by not showing up and everything that went

with it. But I'm just fascinated by this because I really think the funny thing is once

the season starts, 20 games into it, 30 games into it. I still don't think he'll be traded,

but teams that thought they were going to be good are going to have realized like, oh,

we kind of suck. And then I think that's where the market will then I think the market

will lift pretty quick. That's the thing trade. This is what kills me is right. I think

Kings fans are like, I'm going to throw you I'm going to throw your team under the bus here,
