00:00Well, frankly, I don't care what Jimmy Butler wants.
00:04I actually am from the side of the river that says, you know what?
00:08I don't care what you want, need, where you want to go, all your nonsense.
00:13Not only do I not want to hear it anymore from him, I think he was throwing games, throwing
00:20balls away, shooting air balls, acting like a tool, behaving like a child.
00:27All of his demands and nonsense and back and forth with Riley.
00:32And you know, what's funny is that nothing has progressed.
00:36I've been hearing about this guy getting traded now for a month and nothing's happened.
00:40And you know what?
00:41I did a special today, an hour shoot on Elgin Baylor, and I talked about his brilliant career
00:46from high school in D.C. to Idaho to Seattle to the Lakers in Minneapolis to L.A. and to
00:55greatness and even running the Clippers and serving in the Army.
01:00And I talked about this guy not playing for two months and then playing six straight games,
01:05winning all six and averaging thirty eight and twenty two and a real baller.
01:10And then I got to deal with these prima donnas now in this day and age that never play.
01:16They get paid two hundred million dollars.
01:18I mean, honestly, we don't recognize the greatness of the past while we sit around and deal with
01:23this bullshack.
01:24Oh, by the way, Elgin might be maybe one of the most underrated former superstars, like
01:30he was one of the first guys to play above the rim, like nobody was playing above the
01:34rim when Elgin was playing above the rim back in the 60s.
01:37And I think he's dramatically underrated as a as a I mean, he's a Hall of Famer, but I
01:42think underrated as an all time great look, you were spot on about Butler, by the way,
01:49in this sense, particularly this sense, there is no market for him.
01:54There is there is one team that wants him and they can't figure out how to get him because
01:58they got to move Bradley Beal and Bradley Beal is the one guy who has a worse trade
02:03value than Jimmy Butler right now.
02:06The Pelicans have talked about it.
02:08The Warriors came up.
02:09But I was told by a source like watch the Warriors to go after Zach Levine like they
02:14need to they want to boost their offense and Zach's been playing great this year.
02:18That seems more likely and more the direction they're headed than Butler.
02:22They're just look, it's not like Butler's agent isn't trying.
02:26There's no demand for Jimmy Butler because they're not sure what kind of disruption he
02:30might be down the line.
02:32And nobody wants to pay him 100 million dollars for a couple of years after this one, which
02:35is what he wants.
