00:03 They do absolutely nothing to motivate NBA players or
00:08 there's not one player that listens to them.
00:12 They literally sit there and blow smoke and
00:15 nothing that they say is eaten by any of the players.
00:19 They don't listen to them.
00:20 So it's just a giant colossal windy conversation of nothingness.
00:25 They're just blowing smoke.
00:27 And honestly, it's like I've said before, LeBron, he already is the coach of the
00:32 Lakers, they don't need a coach, they fired Darvin Ham, they're gonna hire someone else.
00:36 Why?
00:37 Why hire a coach?
00:39 These guys don't listen to coaches at all.
00:43 They don't listen to them.
00:44 They do nothing.
00:45 Even at practice, shoot around, walk through, these guys don't listen to coaches.
00:51 They don't listen to assistants.
00:53 They don't listen to head coaches.
00:55 And meanwhile, they pay these guys tons of money, five year deals for $100 million.
01:02 I mean, Budenholz is gonna get a gigantic five year deal.
01:05 Ham had a gigantic deal.
01:08 Frank Vogel had a gigantic deal.
01:10 They all make all this money for what?
01:13 They're worthless.
01:14 I don't need a coach at all in any sport.
01:18 >> Yep, you tell me.
01:19 No, I will say this.
01:21 Me, you and Morenci can coach a hockey team like wasted at four o'clock in
01:25 the morning, leaving the bar.
01:26 I've covered every league.
01:27 It's literally, there's a couple breakouts and a couple systems.
01:30 Basketball, same thing.
01:32 The only sport, this is my opinion, the only football.
01:36 That's where coaches actually have to be like, out of all the sports, football is the one
01:40 thing where I think coaches actually, but you're right about basketball, hockey, and
01:44 baseball, man, you could fall asleep, get wasted in the dugout, put a lineup card together.
01:48 So I'm- >> Honestly, I'll agree with you on football.
01:51 But look, and I do mean that because I think that guy Schwartz, the defensive coordinator
01:56 of the Browns, I think he's one of the best coaches I've seen, what he does with the defense.
02:00 But in hockey and in basketball- >> Don't need them.
02:03 >> Now look, I'll give you this.
02:05 I think at the high school and college level, they need coaches.
02:10 And I know people are gonna say this is insane, but think about it for a minute.
02:14 I mean, honestly, think about it.
02:15 At the pro level, with these guys making hundreds of, can you imagine Bradley Beals making 55
02:21 million dollars?
02:22 He runs out of the game, the coach gives him a high five and he blows him off.
02:26 He wouldn't even shake his hand.
02:27 He's like, get away from me.
02:29 Don't touch me.
02:30 Don't look at me, don't talk to me.
02:31 I don't like you.
02:33 You're getting fired.
02:34 We're gonna make sure you get fired.
02:37 Players get coaches fired because they don't respect them, listen to them, or need them.
02:42 They don't need them at all.
