| 0:00.0 | Welcome to another edition of Restore the Floor with Evan Jenkins. I'm Stoney. Have a good holiday. |
| 0:06.6 | It was great. Got to play golf. You know, I was healthy. Can't complain and had a day off for work. |
| 0:12.2 | That's a beautiful thing. Absolutely. Now the NBA 2K 24 summer league begins Friday in Las Vegas. |
| 0:22.2 | We'll get to that in a second. But July 1st actually it started at 6 o'clock on Friday, June 30th. |
| 0:30.0 | NBA free agency. Now nothing's officially yet. Nothing has been signed. But |
| 0:35.4 | we know we're going to happen with everything. And there wasn't a lot of craziness going on |
| 0:41.3 | and when it came to the Detroit pistons. I know a lot of us, no, weird way we're hoping they'd |
| 0:46.7 | get Cam Johnson. But we knew pretty much that unless the pistons went completely nuts |
| 0:52.8 | with an offer that Brooklyn was going to match it. And quite frankly, I'm not sure if I would have |
| 0:57.5 | paid $28 million a year for him either. Yeah, 108 million dollar contract for four years. |
| 1:03.0 | There's a lot for a guy that played 30 games last year. He hasn't played a full season. |
| 1:07.9 | His game's nice when he's out there. But you need to be out there. And as pistons fans, |
| 1:12.9 | we understand that we're kidding him. So I mean, I don't mind that they didn't go. I think it's an |
| 1:20.8 | overpay for him in two years. It's probably going to be a run of the middle NBA contract. But |
| 1:27.1 | I'm kind of glad that they didn't go that route because if you ask me, that kid's kind of set |
| 1:30.8 | up for failure here in Detroit, if he doesn't play 75 games or average 19 and seven, you know what I |
| 1:37.8 | mean? There would be very high expectations. So we're going into the season with pretty much the same |
| 1:45.2 | team with a couple new additions. As of now, yes. Now we would be hypocritical if we said, |
| 1:51.5 | oh, they should have spent money on, you know, this guy, this guy, this guy, because we |
| 1:56.6 | criticized looking back what they they had money to spend. They just spent it back in the day on |
| 2:01.2 | Charlie V and Ben Gordon. Now the Joe Harris situation. All right. So they what? They got |
| 2:07.7 | two second round picks and Joe and Joe Harris. Look, Joe Harris is a terrific shooter when |
