Nightcap Hour 2: Chris Finch calls ref Tony Brothers 'completely unprofessional' + Steve Kerr is BACK with WARRIORS + WNBA Opening WEEKEND

13:24Shannon Sharpe:you already know they take it to Bob

13:25Chad Johnson:you playing him and JJ together Jalen Shit. What are you talking about?

13:33Shannon Sharpe:What are you going to do with Dyson Daniels? Are you going to bring him up the bench? I don't really want to get into the conversation.

13:40Chad Johnson:I'll be at the arena, but you know, hey, hey, hey.

13:52Shannon Sharpe:Steve Kerr has agreed to a two-year contract to return to the Warriors. Hey, hold on, man. What's up? We ain't talk about the Knicks.

14:01Chad Johnson:Oh, man, he's been waiting. Yeah, yeah, I've been waiting on this. Y 'all trying to skip. Don't skip. Let's get on these Knicks. Okay, let's pull up the Knicks. Yeah, pull them up. I can't believe y 'all tried to skip that game because both of y 'all had Philly winning.

14:19Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I had Philly winning. The New York Knicks. Yeah. The New York Knicks won by 14. Yes. Jalen Brunson, 33 points. Mikael Bridges had 23. Josh Hart had 12. And Landry Shamit came off the bench and made two or three three-pointers. He gave you 15. Even though they were absent, O.J., O.G. and Ananobi, it did not matter because it was more than enough.

14:48Chad Johnson:Hey, look. The Knicks, Brunson was awesome. Y 'all know it. Hold on. You talk about the same Brunson that y 'all said. Eskimo's going to have a good game against? All Eskimo's going to do is have to sit in the chair and stop him? Ain't that the one? Ain't y 'all the same two that said if OG is out, Philly's probably going to win his game, especially if MP was... That was y 'all two, right? Man, listen. Hold on. Ain't no listen. Listen, y 'all disrespected the Knicks, so I want you to be just as loud as you was when you talked about it the other night. But, Ocho, this is Jekyll and Hyde shit I'm talking about with.

15:28Chad Johnson:Philly, when Embiid plays, and look at Maxie Nomas, bro. I need him, I just need him more aggressive than this.

15:34Shannon Sharpe:He took 12 shots.

15:36Chad Johnson:I'm talking about it's too many points of the game where he just kind of, it's like he just out there and no man. Just drifts. You know what I mean? And it's a lot of antics going on out there, a lot of flailing, flopping, a lot of WWE with Embiid. It's a lot going on now. It's a lot going on. to mess up the floor of the game, you know. Like, damn. But you look at Brunson, you look at Hart, you look at Bridges, they have familiar territory. They went to Villanova, man. What can I say? I mean, but you knew that. You knew that before the series started. You hear me? You knew that before you picked Philly to win this game because OG was hurt and he was out.

16:17You understood that. When I told y 'all before the series started, who is going to stop Brunson? Big body Brunson at that. y 'all ate y 'all was oh man escrow he gonna he gonna he gonna make it difficult he gonna pick him up 94 goddamn feet and all this other garbage y 'all were talking about and what happened look

16:34Shannon Sharpe:what happened they rented that they were so many people

16:42hold on cat didn't even have a good game cat didn't have a good game we we need cat we need cat

16:50Shannon Sharpe:but you don't know pat cat didn't have a good game scoring but he gave you 12 rebounds and seven assists in only one time. They've been playing

16:56Chad Johnson:through Cat at that high post, meaning like for him to ball, and he been getting a lot of dimes from that. That's how he had what, two triple doubles against the Hawks? Yeah, that part out. But I think he played hell of a defense on Embiid. I just think the back and forth is just a little too much for the game, meaning for guys for Philly. These are young guys who can't really get in rhythm. Look at Paul. He couldn't get in no rhythm neither. It's just, I don't know man Philly got some decisions they got to make too huh

17:28Shannon Sharpe:what decision they got to make you know what you told me they ain't got to make no decision I didn't say that who said that oh yeah but yeah yeah yeah yeah because we was talking about we was talking about the Celtics game you talking about but when he's available yeah he got to beat him you know what you told me oh no I mean he is I mean he is when he's available when he's not hurt now I know he slowed the game down the other night matter of fact last night I understand that, but let's not fool ourselves now. That ain't fool's gold. We know what we get with Embiid. Well, he's never healthy. A 70 % Embiid.

17:59You know what you get, okay?

18:01Shannon Sharpe:You ain't winning no championship with no 77 % Embiid. So at this rate right now, how they gonna get past the Knicks? How they gonna get past Detroit? How they gonna get past the Celtics? Hold on. With a healthy Jason Taylor. Listen, everything you just said was a hypothetical. How they gonna get past nobody? A hypothetical is Jordan B being healthy. past the Knicks. So let's start right there. Maybe he needs to change his scenery. Maybe he needs to change his scenery. Now you take somebody like I'm beating, you put him in the right situation. You put him in the right situation. Now we talking.

18:36Shannon Sharpe:You just told me they don't need to trade this man. Joe. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. I didn't say that. I just said what he can do when he's available. I didn't say whether they need to let him go or not See I don't You talking about they gonna trade him You gonna trade that I saw this man score 70 points I was there live I seen it with my own eye Joe I couldn't believe it You played two games He scored that 70 points

19:11Shannon Sharpe:They play a different game Maxie is up Want to get up and down Etch can want to get up and down. The middle is clogged when he's there. You can't get up and down. Guys can't slash to the basket. He's going to stop the ball. When he get the ball, the ball ain't moving. He's going to get by three or four dribbles and try to get close to the basket.

19:33Chad Johnson:It is what it is. When I'm watching sometimes, don't get me wrong, they need him at times, but you just need a healthy dose of it. I mean, every trip down the damn court, man, we can't throw you the ball, bro. I'm sorry. It just bogs the offense down to where there's no continuity with guys who've been playing together and the ball don't hop no more. We ain't really getting great looks. Like, you know, it's just a big difference that I noticed.

20:03Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, for sure. It is. Hey, Joe, run them plays that get him up out that goddamn paint. Get some movement. Hey, listen, get some movement going offensively so we don't clog up the goddamn hole. Listen, this transition going down, you ain't part of the offense. Come on out here.

20:26Chad Johnson:Let them boys run something else. He ain't going to just be standing at the three. The thing is, if y 'all run the pick and roll on the left side here, he going to be on the right block over here trying to find a way to inch his way in there. I mean then if you run a pick and roll with him he gonna stop right there at the free throw line or at the top of the key he gonna catch it and he gonna run out about seven seconds on the clock just by holding jab and trying to figure out what he gonna do so it just takes the rhythm out of the guys bro that's the biggest thing I noticed you know guys you really don't get a lot of cuts and easy baskets a lot of their baskets are tough baskets playing against this Knicks team it shouldn't be that way They only scored 94 points, bro.

21:09Chad Johnson:They at home. Come on, man.

21:13Shannon Sharpe:So what you recommend, Joe, how does the Sixers extend this series? Because if they don't win tomorrow, there is no Monday. Well, I can tell you there is no Tuesday game. Ain't going to be no Tuesday game. Ain't going to be no Monday. Let's start there. Now, Joe, you can come up with a scenario or a hypothetical that the 76ers can do to hope they win. But I can tell you that ain't going to happen.

21:42Chad Johnson:But go ahead. It's going to be hard for Philly to win because when you think about it, they got such a huge uphill climb down 3-0. From the Knicks, I'm going to take the rest. I don't care what you mean. I want to go and get these boys out of here, man. And, you know, we know OG hurt. Let's see if we can get us some time off. Because this Detroit series, if Cleveland wins another game here, you know, this could potentially be a seven-game series. So, if I'm New York, I'm thinking, man, we got to get these boys out of here. And, look, the Knicks fans still travel here. Philly ain't far from New York.

22:19Chad Johnson:Ain't nothing but a hopping.

22:20Shannon Sharpe:Hell no.

22:22Chad Johnson:Down the street. So, it's damn like a home game to them. Oh, hey, listen, they make it in the home game.

22:34Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, no, but then no look Bronson Bronson is doing what Bronson does and if you don't Hey, and he's a guy that can struggle because we saw him in game to Joe. He struggled. They did an unbelievable job Yeah, but when they absolutely had to have it Bronson stepped up and that's what he's done His entire career when he's been with the Knicks. He's been unbelievable We saw that when he was at the Mavericks and Luca was out. That's when you saw like, oh, this kid could live his own team. They messed up by not extending him the year before. You let him get the free agency and the little 55, 60 million he had in the New York in that market is going to give him a hundred.

23:10Chad Johnson:I think he took a pay cut. He took a pay cut too, didn't he? Oh, for them to be able to sign all them other guys.

23:17Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, to get Cat and get Mikael Bridges and all the OG. Yeah. So, hey, Joe, when he back up? When he back up? Yeah.

23:29You know, hey, you know, we work the numbers a little bit, Joe.

23:35Shannon Sharpe:You know what I'm saying? Hold on.

23:36Chad Johnson:When you say he back up?

23:40Chad Johnson:Maybe after this season. Because this is third year day. I thought he didn't just resign. He didn't just sign another deal. I thought he just signed another deal.

23:49Shannon Sharpe:I don't think so. Ash, when is Brunson back up?

24:02Shannon Sharpe:We'll see. But he definitely –

24:06Chad Johnson:Are you going to get that max, Joe? I don't think he's going to take the max, meaning the max for him could be close to 300, 250, 300. I don't think he'll take it just because, you know, if he take that, then they gonna have to get rid of some of these dudes. Dang. Right. What you would do Ocho? They come here, they stay on. To be able to keep all the boys? Yeah, but I'm saying that we got 315 million to give you, but if we, you're probably gonna have to get rid of two of your partners. I tell you what, you know what? I'm not gonna have to take all that because I'm gonna make up for the endorsements anyway.

24:46Chad Johnson:Hey, they stay on TV. They big boys stay on TV, don't they? yeah I'm gonna make up for it and do it hey hold on I'm playing in New York what you gonna do Mr. Sharp hey guys stay in church

25:16Shannon Sharpe:he signed a four year $156 million extension in July 24, which runs through 2829. They includes an option for the final year. By signing early rather than waiting in free agency, he accepted significantly less than his maximum value. Hey, hey, what'd you say? What'd you go tell him, Mark? Y 'all stay in here.

25:42So,

25:43Shannon Sharpe:he'll be eligible for a three play this deal out he'll be eligible for a four year 323 million in 28 or a five year 418 in 2029 how old is he right now how old is Brunson right now

26:01Chad Johnson:let me see

26:02Shannon Sharpe:he gotta be what is Brunson 30

26:1629. 29.

26:20Damn.

26:23Shannon Sharpe:I don't know, Joe. You giving a 32-year-old 323? For five years? Four years. The next year will be five years.

26:34Chad Johnson:He'll be 33, 418. I think they'll definitely give him a three at a crazy number. But four years, that's going to be tough. Yeah. You know, when you get up in age, man, you hit 31, 32, and basketball, they consider you a damn dinosaur. I don't know how they feel about football.

26:52Shannon Sharpe:Oh, it's 30 in the NFL.

26:55Chad Johnson:Yeah. You get by 32 in the NBA, bro. They start looking for your damn backup.

27:04Chad Johnson:Real.

27:06Shannon Sharpe:I can see that. He definitely, after taking this extension, taking this 156 for four, yeah, y 'all need to break me off. I think, at worst case, you know what, Joe? I ain't gonna wait. Don't worry about it. Because I understand, what can I do with 323 that I can only do with 418?

27:28Chad Johnson:Oh, boy.

27:30Shannon Sharpe:I can't run the risk. The risk is, I'll be a year older and then an injury, and you know I'm never getting that. I'm going to take this 323. I'll make this work for me. I'll make this 323 work for me. That'll probably be the best bet. Seriously. Yeah. 80 million, 80 million a year, plus you in New York getting endorsements, another 15, 20 off the table.

27:52Chad Johnson:You just said 80 million a year. That's crazy.

27:56Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. That's light, Joe. Huh? That's light, you know. Light, yeah. Steve Kerr has agreed to a two-year contract to return as head coach of the Warriors. The deal keeps Kerr as the highest paid in the NBA annually. He made at least$17.5 million in the last season. Joe, does Kerr coming back to the Warriors at least two more seasons, does that keep the band together? Does that keep Kerr, Steph, and Draymond together for at least two more years?

28:28Chad Johnson:Man, I don't know, fellas. I don't really know how they really feel about Draymond if y 'all just want me to be 100. I know he's a huge part of what they've done, the emotional leader that we always talk about. But I wonder how the coaches really feel about Draymond, how the front office really feel about him. You know what I mean? Yeah.

28:49Shannon Sharpe:The question is, the better question, is that how do other teams feel? Do they feel he will be as valuable to their team as he was to the Warriors? because I don't see, I mean, I ain't really heard people call him like, hey, man, y 'all trying to get up off Draymond? Right. Because we'd love to have him. Do you see calls like that happening? I don't. Now, I'm not saying that he's, I'm saying he's great there for them in that system. But to take him somewhere else and ask him, what are you going to ask him to do? He's not a scorer. He still can defend. He's an okay rebounder. He can run your offense.

29:29Shannon Sharpe:but he don't have the shoe. He ain't got Steph and he doesn't have Klay. So how valuable is he to another team as he was or is to the Warriors?

29:42Chad Johnson:I don't know because ain't nobody got no damn Steph Curry. And I just think that the chemistry that Draymond and Steph has, you know, nobody in the league has that, bro. And so, I mean, it's hard for me to see him playing somewhere else, Uncle Ocho, considering everything that he's done in Golden State, but he got rid of Klay. I just think the one person who they ain't going to ever get rid of is Stephon Kirk. I don't think they're ever going to get rid of him. Steph going to get frustrated. He's going to get frustrated because if you look at it, the way the team is built, the way the team is constructed, they're not constructed to win.

30:17So Steph out there just doing, you know, stat padding. You know, you don't have a chance of winning another ring. I know you already got what? Four? You got four rings already, huh?

30:25Chad Johnson:I think they do got to make some changes, though. I don't know what changes they can really make or if they can even go out and get any big-time free agents. But, I mean, here, you was fighting to get in the play-in. Ain't no way you mean to tell me you bringing Steve Kerr back and y 'all coming back with this same team. No.

30:44Shannon Sharpe:No, I don't see that. You don't have a chance. You're in the play-in and you've been in the play-in the last three years. Hey, what if Draymond does come back? Obviously, I think LeBron is gone. Do you see any scenario where LeBron ends up in Golden State next year? Or is that far-fetched? I don't see that. Look, the Warriors wanted Draymond. I just don't know if – excuse me. The Warriors wanted LeBron, but I don't know if that's something that he was actively searching for. The question is, look, I don't – at the end of the day, what does LeBron want? I don't know how many 50 million 60 million dollar contracts gonna be out there Joe I just be honest not for I understand he's a draw but I don't know if I can if I can bust my roster up bring him on at that number and it because of that I'm trying to win a at the end of the day I'm trying to win a championship that's what he wants hold on you're trying to win a championship but you know closer to the championship with the roster you got now and there's really nobody you can bring in that can get you closer to that championship.

31:54Shannon Sharpe:What are you talking about in the Lakers? I'm talking about over there in the Bay. In Golden State? Yeah. No. I just don't see it. I mean, you got Al Horford over there who's serviceable. But Al got to be pushing for it. Al's about 40.

32:12Chad Johnson:Al's about 40. He's probably about five years younger than me. Oh, five.

32:18Shannon Sharpe:So Al's 40. I mean, Steph's going to be, what, 38, 38, 39?

32:24Chad Johnson:They're going to be an old-ass team, boy. Yeah. Joe, you here, Joe?

32:30Shannon Sharpe:At some point in time, Joe and Ocho, man, look, that's what the Rockets – oh, you had Scottie Pippen, you had Elijah Juan, you had – Barkley? I don't know if Clyde was still there. I think Clyde might have played one year. Yeah, Barkley? I'm not sure. And Barkley, they were way, way past their prime. I mean what do I hope that LeBron will be 42 Al Horford's 40 Steph will be 38 Draymond will be what 36 37 I just don't know what we expect to do what with that

33:03Chad Johnson:Oh Joe 45 in June late June Hey okay Joe okay 45 okay you know what I mean I mean nah you ain't getting up there because listen I'm 58 Joe I still look like I'm 23, you hear me? So you doing something right over there, Joe? I ain't no spring chicken no more, Joe. I used to be good. I used to be real. Hey, I'm glad you know you ain't no spring chicken, boy. Huh? I'm gonna show you you ain't either. You hear me?

33:33Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, Draymond just turned 36.

33:35Chad Johnson:Did he?

33:37Shannon Sharpe:He turned 36 in March.

33:39Chad Johnson:Yeah, it's gonna be interesting what the Golden State, what the Warriors are gonna do. I mean, they brought Kurt back and I'm sure, you know he got some changes he want to make

33:50Shannon Sharpe:Steph is 38 he gonna be 39 he gonna be 39 next year hey he's special he's special though he don't really count well he missed a lot of time this year too though

34:04Chad Johnson:yeah he would hurt what was wrong with him Joe he hurt his knee yeah he hurt his knee and guess what

34:12Shannon Sharpe:injuries start coming with greater regularity mm-hmm hey Steph if you need a nutritionist holla at your boy I get you right Al Horford is 39 hey them boys as a matter of fact he'll be 40 his birthday in June and them boys oh what I don't really know how far a 42 year old a 40 year old a 38 a 38 year old I 39 30 I don't know how far they gonna take you Joe I don't either I just don't Hey, they might be being slick now. You know when them lottery balls come up, Joe? Yeah, what you saying? I can see it play out. Let me see, out the blue, you know you got all these old, old players, right? But you know what?

34:56Hey, we know something under the table. We're going to slide you a new two-year, right? And we're going to make sure you get this lottery pick.

35:04Shannon Sharpe:Hey, all I know is you fool around like David Stern. that day. Hey, I asked the Timberwolves about trying to do contracts under the table.

35:15Chad Johnson:What did it do to you? Set your ass way back.

35:18Shannon Sharpe:Voided the contract, took the next three, you couldn't have a first round pick and blew it up. Hey, listen, I'm just throwing scenarios out there that could be possible. Oh, yeah. You know, I mean, listen, you got a team. And then you got Jimmy, I mean, Jimmy Butler's still there, but Jimmy Butler's coming off an ACL injury.

35:41Chad Johnson:That's going to be tough, bro. They had a nice squad this year. Now, see if it happened. They don't remember who said it first. What's that? Did them boys get an early pick? Early that lottery pick? For some reason, that little ping pong ball say Warriors out the blue? I don't know about that, Ocho. I feel you.

36:06Shannon Sharpe:I still don't know how much that's going to help him, Ocho.

36:12Chad Johnson:they just need some young league they do need a big and they the big don't come now they don't come from around the corner like they used to back in the day it's hard to find a big now boy hey where young bull from Purdue went who's that yeah where he went Memphis okay he played I heard that he was playing with they were getting money over there okay yeah trying to think about bigs yeah

36:46Shannon Sharpe:then it'd be so we'll see if they can you know they want to keep this thing together I guess it's like because how many I wonder how many years Steph got on his contract because that'd be that's going to be that's going to be very very interesting I agree

37:07Shannon Sharpe:he unrestricted free engine in 27 so he got this year one year 62 million no hold on he's under contract with Golden State through 26-27 signed a one year extension in August of 24 so he'll set the earns yeah so he got two years left he got two years so it there you go it coincides with what the Steve Kerr contracts coincide with what Steph Curry contract expiring Draymond has this year on his contract a player option for 2627

37:49Chad Johnson:Yeah, they probably

37:51Shannon Sharpe:So if that that's they constructed it like that for a reason, you know I think it's like okay Stefan let them know what he wants to do and They'll do what they do But I just don't see it. I just don't see golden state being a serious straight anymore the way is too deep now oh hey that window closed you see barkley soda the spurs the nuggets i just don't see it i just know that window closed that's why i think uh

38:27Chad Johnson:curry curry gonna have to team up with somebody on i just told

38:33Shannon Sharpe:i told you oh somebody's gonna have to come i don't think he wants to go anywhere joe

38:40Chad Johnson:I don't. Yeah, I wouldn't want to leave neither, but I just can't. I don't see LeBron going to go in state. If I... If... You know LeBron always wanted to play with Curry now. But here's the thing. If LeBron just so happened to leave the Lakers, I think he coming somewhere out east. I don't know where, but I think he'd come somewhere out east so he can get the hell out there at Western Conference, that damn juggernaut out there. Well, what you think about LeBron coming down here with - Put him on Detroit. Nah. What you mean, nah? Yeah. What you mean? With him out, hey. What you think about LeBron coming back - What you talking about, nah.

39:21Think about LeBron coming back to the heat with Giannis and Jock.

39:24Chad Johnson:Well, you can't rule out now. He might go back home. Let's say Cleveland don't get up out of here.

39:32Shannon Sharpe:So what you gonna put, you gonna replace Harden with him?

39:42You know, he ain't got to have the ball in his hand now.

39:44Chad Johnson:Now, you know, some numbers.

39:47Shannon Sharpe:But I think you want the ball in his hand. Huh? In that situation, because you want Donovan, you don't want, you know, Donovan, like, hey, Donovan, do your thing, off the ball.

40:00Chad Johnson:I'm just saying, man. Make that thing work, man. Set the pick for me Joe. No, you said in the pick for me. She the devil is alive. Well, you crazy. You guys said the. Joe man said the pick for me, man. Matter of fact, you know what Joe get your ass out of the way. I so I so I so I so clear that clear that clear that. You can handle by like this or you can see him will play his role. You know what I'm saying? You don't want to play your role. Hey, Joe. Hey, Joe, I know my role. What's your role? Sit your ass. Get your ass out my way. That ain't your role on our team. If we all on teams, that is not your role.

40:47Hold on, Joe. Joe, chill, chill, chill, chill, chill, Joe. Chill. Hey, Joe, if I was a basketball player, you hear me? You got to know, you got to understand your role. Boy, I'm the alpha, Joe. I'm the alpha. I'm running the ship. I'm steering this bitch. Now when I pass it to you, you can do your thing. When I go on the bench, you can do your thing.

41:09Chad Johnson:Let me tell you what the role is. Your role is to hustle and play damn defense. That's your damn role. I need you to be a star in that role, okay? Right, right. Hey, Joe, let me tell you something. I need you to be a superstar role player. Hey, see, I don't think Joe understand who I am. Joe, I put butts in the seat. I could fill a stadium out by myself, Joe. So I definitely ain't playing no guy. I'm going to play defense, right? I'm going to sit in the chair, Joe. I'm going to slide them puppies, Joe. I'm going to slide them. You hear me? I'm going to slide them, right? But also, people coming to see me for what I do on the offensive end, Joe.

41:46Chad Johnson:I'm going to make sure I throw you alive. I'm going to make sure you get a highlight or two. But you're going to be a defender, a pick-and-roll guy. You're going to be the screener. You know? Nah. You're going to be doing all this. You're talking about what you're going to be doing. Joe, if you play with me, you're going to be DeAndre Ayton. Huh? You're going to be DeAndre Ayton. I already know. I can't even play on a team with dude. I already know that. I already know. Hey, Joe, I'm playing.

42:17Shannon Sharpe:My man said, hey, Joe, you're going to be DeAndre Ayton.

42:24Come on, I'm going to be Ayton.
