00:05message for the warriors yesterday like you're not fun right now i need you to be some fun okay
00:12i do not need you to win a championship i do need you to actually have the ball
00:19go in that little orange circle sometimes that's all be nice am i asking too much
00:27of late yes i am a little bit i mean when steph's not out there you're asking a lot and i was just
00:33dude i was going through the game log of the first quarter when you know steph hits a couple
00:39of free throws they take a two-point lead and here's what happened after that looney misses
00:44a cutting layup steph misses from 30 steph goes out uh you had buddy misses a 26 foot
00:52runner a three-point running jumper from 26
00:57moses moody turnover buddy misses from 26 dennis misses from 27 dennis misses from 11
01:05end of the quarter you're down by 11 all right so steph goes out and i think he got a couple of
01:12free throws in there but that's about it yeah buddy he got fouled on the three and uh he hit
01:19one of the three yeah one point after steph went out i mean listen i think we've been a little bit
01:26short on uh positive commentary today okay well right warrior was lost by 40 points this ought
01:31to be good well look at grandy's face i think he wants to go to the restroom right now just
01:38by me even saying that but what if i what what if i did say this okay because uh hey lovely christy
01:46she's listening and and you want to know what she said she's like they are pretty hurt like
01:53aren't three of the guys who usually do some of the stuff that you're asking them to do
01:58not there now again take that comment and don't stick it in your championship blender no
02:08just stick it in your blender of like could you be a better team in a couple weeks could you i
02:16don't know be in the game could you could you not get blown off the floor by boston
02:24if draymond and cominga and pods are playing with steph and and looney or steph and schroeder or or
02:33and wiggins or whatever like is that even within the realm of fair yeah you're better
02:41and you know i still don't think you're a championship team of course i just wanted
02:46what it in your title blender well should we take that blender and just give that blender away yes
02:51okay so that blender's gone no sell it a lot of places now facebook marketplace i don't know
02:58like you could send it to cleveland because they think that they've got a blender in oklahoma city
03:03they're ready to plug that blender in so yes do you get better when you have good players come
03:08back and actually play basketball for you absolutely you get better does that mean that
03:13you can be threatening a playoff spot sure yeah you know yeah they're threatening a playoff spot
03:20right now kind of they're threatening it they're not they're looking at it like we see you yeah we
03:26can we're right here we're looking at you right yeah it's about as threatening as a parent who
03:32and i love your analogy when you you spend a thousand bucks to go to disneyland and your
03:37kids are acting the fool as you're waiting in line at the first ride and you say if you don't
03:42knock it off we're going home and they look at you and they go dude you spent a thousand bucks to
03:46get us in here you're not very threatening right now you're not going anywhere that's how threatening
03:51the warriors are right now um i don't know about that do you feel like the suns are threatening a
03:56playoff spot no okay they're a mess are the wolves they should be well they've underperformed they're
04:03a half game better than the warriors and they've lost to the warriors three times right which is
04:09really really weird but but it is but would you look at the wolves and be like yeah they're not
04:14gonna figure that out maybe they will that's all i'm saying there's four good teams in the west
04:21and there are eight or nine that are just like either underperforming or just kind of crappy
04:29just kind of barely above good yeah i agree with you once you get to the two la teams you're in a
04:35big bucket yeah and they're they're up there they're floating up at the top of the bucket
04:40right now and the warriors are underwater i get that um but to the point you you made i mean they
04:47yeah yes the golden state warriors are two games behind the lakers who are in the six
04:54seed yep and they're a game they're a game and a half above being in the 12 spot also true so
05:00they are also threatening the not playoffs right yes so i mean if you want to talk about
05:08just them getting better when pods and kaminga and draymond get healthy that's all i want right now
05:13you get better i just want them to be better that's the way i've been looking at the trade
05:17deadline for a couple of weeks now not through this lens of we're gonna get a big boy and we're
05:22gonna make a run no just can you just get better and that's what i think the guys were talking
05:27about last week when everyone freaked out by them saying we're not going to be irresponsible
05:34i one of the oddest sports conversations that went back and forth i think i've ever heard
05:40where a a team was like we're not going to be irresponsible and the fan base went
05:45what we want irresponsibility well we want action yes that's not bad action no you want action and
05:54if it's like you trade for jimmy butler that's action is it a reckless move perhaps if you trade
06:00kaminga and a couple of other players and a couple of picks and butler's here for two months
06:06and it doesn't work out then yeah you'll all regret it but at least it's it's action and
06:10that's where this cockamamie lebron james trade michael wilbon with the quote earlier today
06:17tongue firmly in cheek but i think well at the same time maybe if you want to play it out and
06:24i've done the trade machine homework on it you bring him in that's at least exciting
06:30you can't it's time to make the trade okay warriors lakers how many times i gotta say this
06:34every day time for lebron to be traded to the warriors let's just do this neither one of those
06:39teams can do anything as they are now let's just do this in other words i'm bored i need something
06:48that is gonna excite me hold on though that's fair we are we are that was super boring yesterday
07:00now it's not always boring it wasn't boring in minnesota last week it wasn't boring against
07:07washington um that was boring yesterday and it's it's a problem that's a problem yeah that's a word
07:16that is like whoa i i think well it's a death knell as an entertainment entity and we've talked
07:23about the giants a lot and the giants have kind of been that yeah for the most part you've been a
07:28team that doesn't have a lot of offense and you've got a couple of pitchers that are really good and
07:34then you've got a bunch of openers and the way he would the way farhan was kind of navigating
07:40the roster it's like you're here today and then you're gone how many options do you have because
07:45i'm going to use your options you're here you're in sacramento and you're back and forth i signed
07:50joey lucchese over the weekend never heard of him really joey lucchese i mean he's a left-handed
07:57pitcher he's playing for who are you from newark yeah there you go why bad joey apologies lucchese
08:04how are the numbers last year uh i don't know what the hell he did last year he was he i'll say this
08:09because i was this is when i was working in san diego he was like a prospect he was like they
08:16were and you were working in san diego in 2017 um something okay yeah something like i'm just
08:23trying to get some context he came up with the padres in 18 2018 started 26 games went eight
08:30and nine with a 408 era that was his rookie year okay okay career numbers pretty commensurate 4.10
08:38career era but the last couple of years he has been with the mets um but you know spotty
08:47in terms of how often he's even out there two years ago he started nine games for the
08:53mets and had an era under three okay last year he started two games lost them both
09:00and he appeared out of the pen the rest of the time or was he down no no he's not a pen guy
09:05he's starting pitcher so where was he last year his starter but he appeared in two games yeah i
09:10think he was probably in the minors for a lot of gotcha i think not injured or injured something
09:15i don't know two games started two games for the mets all right lost them both let's get excited
09:20joey lucchese uh speed i like i just kind of stumbled upon that last hour yeah why is the
09:26whole bay area slow have you noticed this how many people came on during the football season
09:33they're like greg cosell tomorrow willard and dibs niners are slow brian baldinger niners look
09:38slow giants when the hell they they last stole a base in 2005 and then here are the warriors
09:45cannot create a shot stuff's not on the floor can't even get open forget making it they can't
09:52even get a shot off he's fast but now he's hurt he's hurt isaac gorendo really fast and and he got
10:00hurt and trying to think who else jacob cowling pretty fast but he was not allowed to play on the
10:06offense yeah not ready not ready not ready whole year not ready so it wasn't ready fair enough i
10:12mean you're right though when you look at like speed and speed not the only thing that's exciting
10:17but if you look at the warriors the warriors most exciting players steph curry is one of the most
10:22exciting athletes in history jonathan coming is exciting who would you put next on your man he's
10:29exciting on the warriors on the warriors oh my gosh their current roster outside of steph and
10:35cominga who's the next most exciting player on the team that's kind of a fun question
10:41hang on i'm gonna i'm gonna do this to give myself a second to think about yeah buy some time um
10:46you're listening to 95 7 the game kgmz fm and hd1 san francisco and odyssey sports station always
10:52live in the free odyssey app twitch and youtube powered by first norcal credit union for a low
10:56auto loan apply online or just ask for first norcal financing at the dealer well it's not
11:00kyle anderson okay it's not draymond it's not kavan now it was buddy for a second but i'm gonna put
11:09that i'm gonna put yeah i've got my answer i got my answer go ahead it's wiggins
11:16he got jokes you got jokes i don't got jokes how exciting was he yesterday that's not my point how
11:23exciting was he the game before that the correct answer is gary peyton is not allowed to have a bad
11:29game gp2 is the next most exciting wait a minute he can have a he can have a bad game i need to
11:35have drew's back here first things not now he's drew yeah we're like that now he's drew why he's
11:40not allowed to have a crappy night steph can obviously he's been allowed to for the better
11:45part of his four years easy easy he's having a very good year he is but to me he's not that
11:53exciting even when he goes for 31 it's not like there's a lot of highlight real plays wait a
11:59minute you asked a good steady guy asked for third on the list you didn't ask for somebody
12:04who i'm gonna put a poster above my bed if i'm 11 years old this is i think the point of the
12:09question yeah is there is no good answer no but he's like boy on my watchability rankings he
12:17that's not who i would not come down his road i'm not coming down his road i'm just saying that
12:22he's not the most exciting player you laughed at the idea of him being fun to watch hilarious
12:27why because he goes from 31 saturday to where are you all right yesterday look let's go back to the
12:35phones but let's throw that out to everybody my two-year-old actually said that to me yesterday
12:39we're watching the game she said she turned it off i bet because wiggins was playing she said
12:43is wiggins playing daddy i don't know honey stay tuned where's wiggins daddy we got wiggins
12:49bobbleheads at the house myla won't turn the tv off don't you scoff at it the answer is gary
12:58peyton the second why because he does exciting things he'll dive on the floor and go to the
13:04jordan pool which was pretty awesome yeah i thought he was given a flagrant show for that
13:11gary is is is fun because he smiles he dunks you know but i mean it's not like he can get you a
13:19bucket unless he's running from the baseline and you huck it up in the air get to the bucket
13:25yeah and yesterday he had a great like oh gary's gonna i thought he's gonna throw it down and he
13:32tried to just drop it in he missed if he shoots a three-pointer from anywhere in the corner i duck
13:37and sometimes i'm at home like come on i'm i'm trying to watch basketball here i love gp2 but
13:45i'm not gonna put him ahead of andrew wiggins andrew wiggins yeah he's pretty exciting player
13:51i mean we're watching basketball here dibs have you forgotten the dunk on lucas head you forgot
13:58how long ago was that three years more than a thousand days have gone by since he excited us
14:05um no to that level yes to that level i mean what would y'all say about that eight at eight nine
14:13five seven nine five seventy if steph and coming are clearly the two most exciting warriors anybody
14:19else does anybody else get to be even on any sort of a list there um let's go to mike and hayward
14:26hi mike thanks for calling i have a question for you guys i was trying to figure out the real
14:31reason why craig thompson left was what now what was that all about that i was trying to i let you
14:36guys know craig thompson left because the money wasn't right or he wanted to leave what was that
14:41about you nailed it the money wasn't right he wanted a lot more yeah he wanted a lot more money
14:47than they wanted to pay him and i also think that he was looking for a different a different
14:53environment after the last couple of years i don't think now it depends on when you're asking
14:57mike are you asking prior to last year when they didn't come to an agreement or are you asking at
15:03the end of the of the year when clay ended up going to the mavericks well what's the point
15:10i'm trying to make is that they he he was a big they could count on him for a bucket
15:17right he could come up with a bucket he could come up with a bucket he couldn't carry pool
15:23pool could come up with a bucket right he can't he can't do everything he can score but he can't
15:29pool could come up with a bucket clay can't come up with a bucket but he can come up with a bucket
15:35not as much as clay can and so i'm just getting the point that what they need is people that can
15:39can make buckets right well whether it's a whether it's a tall man or a big man or whatever
15:46you know somebody got to be able to score and i ain't talking about wiggins because wiggins is
15:49doing what he's doing but they need a buck they need somebody that can give them a bucket besides
15:54williams cominga and and curry mike i don't argue the the the warriors need somebody who can get a
16:01bucket but i do think that that in the end if that's the whole conversation it's a little too
16:08simplistic for actual nba basketball you you have to have players that are doing things within a
16:14team concept and you have to have players yes who are dynamic but are playing on both ends of the
16:20floor not hurting you in other ways clay thompson by the way your point i don't think can quote get
16:27a bucket clay thompson is classically someone especially at this point in his career where you
16:32cannot just give him the ball and say go get a bucket he's never been great at that but especially
16:38not now did you know that andrew wiggins is averaging three points per game more than clay
16:42this year and clay's playing on a team with better pace that goes up and down the floor and scores a
16:48lot so andrew wiggins to me right now if you want to talk about go get a bucket wiggins is way better
16:55than clay thompson clay has become a you know standalone three-point shooter yeah jordan pool
17:02can go get a bucket that's true um there's a lot of other stuff that happens too you know he scores
17:10but he doesn't i don't think he's a well i don't think he's a well-rounded player i don't think
17:14that he is producing at a level that is conducive to winning if he's your best player and he is
17:21their best player you're probably not going to win a lot of games and you know we can go back and try
17:26to put the toothpaste back in the tube and we can think about what if they still had jordan pool
17:32and what if they still had clay thompson if you still had your same team that you had the
17:37championship with three years ago are you any markedly better of a team right now i don't
17:43necessarily think so you'd probably be more exciting if you had jordan pool and you still
17:48had clay and you were 21 and 21 i think you'd be more exciting than what you are um we're gonna
17:54keep going on the phones but this is a a bit of breaking news and i want to know if y'all read
17:59this the same way i do i bet you do um but what's the first thing that goes to your mind when i tell
18:05you this the phoenix suns are trading their 2031 okay six years from now 2031 unprotected first
18:20round draft pick to the utah jazz in exchange for three first round picks the picks they will receive
18:29are the least favorable firsts in 2025 of cleveland and minnesota so right now that stands
18:38to probably be minnesota's first round pick this year 2027 again least favorable of cleveland
18:46minnesota and utah and 2029 of cleveland minnesota and utah right now of course those were all held
18:55by utah yeah yeah i'm looking at it right now so utah has one two they've got three first round
19:03picks as we sit right now prior to this deal quicker way to say it for the radio audience
19:09they're sending out a 2031 first in exchange for three firsts that are sooner
19:15this has jimmy butler written all over it right is everybody else hearing that the same way
19:20so those picks will be in phoenix for maybe a week or two and then they'll be on the move
19:26those picks will be going to either miami or to a third party to help facilitate a deal where
19:33beal goes out and butler comes in i don't know if all of them are going to go but right it seems
19:38to me that they are they are amassing assets to pull off a another deal and and we know that
19:47the sons and jimmy butler have been activated right and the interesting part of that for me
19:54is not jimmy going to phoenix it's what can phoenix do to make the room because bradley
20:00beal is the likely one to go but he's got a no trade no trade clause he's got now they're doing
20:05a great job of making him want to leave right right they can make him come off the bed make
20:09it uncomfortable to where they're like look i mean i and i would imagine these conversations
20:13have happened behind the scenes we're like look i know you got a no trade clause you can make this
20:19uncomfortable for us we can make this uncomfortable for you it would be better if we're up front with
20:25you tell you this is what we're trying to do and we would like to have you participate or your agent
20:31participate with us in finding you a spot that you would like that's what i would do if i were
20:37the sons i i would think that that's what's happening behind the scenes right if you want
20:41jimmy butler and you're already paying three guys 50 million one of them's got to go and that
20:45is most likely bradley beal but with a no trade you have to work with him on what destination
20:51actually works for bradley beal and you think about it and bradley's making about 50 right i
20:57don't have his exact number in front of me i get it yeah so no matter what the team that acquires him
21:04is going to have to give up 50 of their own and the one that i can't yeah i can't help but think
21:10about mark the team that makes the most sense for me in one of these massive deals is houston
21:16because you've got fvv who's making 40 something fred van vliet and his big old contract and he's
21:23not necessarily a huge part of what houston's trying to do so i think that houston becomes a
21:30a likely destination for bradley beal maybe and this would have to be as we've mentioned
21:34a facilitation sensation where a third team is involved with miami houston phoenix maybe it's
21:41even a fourth team right well uh so two things one bradley makes 50 this year he will make 53 next
21:49year and then as a player option for 57 the year after that good work if you can get it all those
21:55teams that you just threw in there could the warriors be one of them maybe maybe but now this
22:02is even like i don't even see how this is feasible because of the money but i do want to i do want to
22:07throw this out there to make a point everybody who called their friend or texted over the last three
22:14days and went should have never let jordan pool see could we use jordan hey steinie could we use
22:20jordan pool would they be better with jordan pool they'd be better say it mark they'd be better with
22:24jordan pull he's a bucket getter then why don't you want bradley beal he makes too much money
22:30the exact same player he's too old he's 31 the youngest warrior in the history of our lives
22:36field does have a no trade clause so he has to choose that also before he came to the suns
22:41according to my son's insider oh it came down to two choices in cities that he wanted to play in
22:46sons and warriors it was phoenix and miami was the other so he'd be happy to go back there it
22:51sounds like oh but but did he want him that i don't know i don't know and again i'm not suggesting
23:00beal to the warriors there's literally all like 50 million dollars you'd have to give up wiggins
23:05kaminga pajamski i mean they have to give up the whole team so that i can run it through
23:11the machine it's not feasible and i understand the financial side of it but i just wonder if
23:15you love pool you love beal right aren't they kind of the same dude uh yeah a little bit i
23:21think beal is a little bit of a better score he can score in more ways okay but um i wonder yeah
