Four o'clock. Nice to have you as we turn our attention a little bit. I know tomorrow's

the lottery. We tried this routine with the Red Wings and Connor Bedard and, you know,

I will bring this up tomorrow in a longer format. If you don't think this stuff matters,

you think we overdo it. Well, you know, there's plenty of good players. The Chicago Black

Hawks have sold over $3 million in season tickets in the first 24 hours of not even having

the player, but just winning the lottery. Why does it matter? Because we have a dead franchise

that plays at LCA. The Detroit pistons are a dead franchise. No direction, no future.

There's no real way out. Not just no easy way out as Robert Tepper once said, but no,

there's legitimately no way out unless they get Wemba Nyama. But I wanted to offer something

different. We'll save the lottery stuff for tomorrow. If you want me to believe you have

a clue and you want me to believe we're going to start to build a brighter future here.

You should already have been on the phone with Monty Williams. And if Monty says no, I'd

rather be unemployed. If Monty says I don't like winter, if Monty says Troy enjoyed our

time together in OKC, but I your roster makes me sick to my stomach. That's fine. We talked

about this with the Lions and Quinn Williams. Make the call. Monty Williams, let me just

give you the reason. No, it's not because he coached the sons and they made the finals

or the guys players help coaches, too. You know, I'm talking about who the guy is.

Monty Williams is not liked around the league. He's loved his players love him, not the

Andreate and but everybody else. Monty Williams gives you something to hang your hat on.

Monty Williams is an offensive head coach. This back court of Cade and Jade Nivey, it can't

just be good. It has to be great. And there's no more qualified coach that's on the open market

right now. Not unless you want to go down any more of Arn Tellams former clients to interview.
