00:00I'm trying to convince Dan, and I don't know that I've convinced him. I was like, listen,
00:04we can't have... What's Dan hung up on? Thurstein, what are you hung up on? Well, what am I not?
00:11Here's how I understand it. Because the Bulls bid against themselves on Patrick Williams,
00:17rather than allowing the market to set his price, Marshall is extremely concerned that they haven't
00:23learned their lesson, and games like last night where Giddy tantalizes with some of his ability
00:31may be enough to make them do it again. I hope he's wrong. I'm about 50-50, but I hope the Bulls
00:39will not make that same mistake. It's not just about them necessarily offering something before
00:44he signs an offer sheet somewhere else. It's more about if the offer sheet comes back high,
00:48oh, we got to match that and keep him. I'm like, yo, just say he's not part of the 9-10 guys that
00:55you need to be good. Well, I can give you both good news and bad news. I can say that I do think
01:04they will let the market set a price this time because they know that there are a lot of
01:10fast-strap teams and teams up against the apron and teams that just don't have a lot of
01:15maneuverability. The bad news is if there is an offer that you're like, you can't do that,
01:21they will still do it and match it because they cannot lose face on the trade and not getting
01:30the draft pick back because Josh Giddy was so important for Alex Caruso without a draft pick
01:36attached that they will die on that hill. And they've died on many hills in this front office.
01:42I think that's not a tough hill for them to die on compared to some of the other
01:46crafts they've died on.
