00:02 Okay, on the court, let's go to the NBA now and here in South Florida.
00:07 I mean, football started here, Gilbert.
00:09 So all this talk about the Miami Heat, getting Damian Lillard.
00:13 I mean, we know that that's gonna be back on their focus, but
00:15 everybody's pivoted over to Tua and the Dolphins here.
00:18 So I don't think that's a good thing for the NBA.
00:21 I think at some point, someone's gotta put their foot down and
00:25 either make this trade happen or Dame's gotta stay in Portland.
00:28 What ends up happening here?
00:29 >> It feels like these parties that are involved are starting to drag their feet
00:34 a little bit.
00:34 And obviously, its focus is shifting to football and understandably so.
00:38 And maybe that means that when everybody least expects it, or
00:41 maybe when everybody's not really paying close attention,
00:44 they can do something under the radar.
00:45 But it does feel like the longer that this goes,
00:48 not that it decreases the likelihood of it happening, but
00:51 it feels like it's going to take some time.
00:53 I know there's been talks about getting a third team involved to potentially
00:56 maybe take on Tylee Hero.
00:58 There's been a lot of discussion about Tylee Hero's value in a trade involving
01:02 Damian Lillard.
01:04 There's been the memo that the NBA sent out warning Damian Lillard and
01:08 his representation about this.
01:09 So there's so many moving parts with this deal, and we understand the trade market
01:13 and what it takes to have a superstar move, because Damian Lillard is still
01:18 a superstar coming off arguably the best season of his career.
01:21 So there's so much involved in this deal.
01:25 It makes me curious to think, especially because we're going to round the corner
01:28 after a few weeks, and training camp's going to be right there in front of us.
01:32 So if this doesn't happen in the next few weeks, now we're wondering,
01:36 is there going to be a holdout type situation?
01:38 Wish there are new things in the CBA preventing that.
01:41 So it gets more complicated as time goes on.
