10:16what you do in that situation huh do you react like that Joe if somebody say something crazy

10:22Shannon Sharpe:to you like that so you got a wife and kid your mom did somebody say oh yeah I'm going to put that meat to the whole family what you doing I'm saying imagine how you felt with that thing on that thing, Roddy. Now, that was your girlfriend. Now, he talking about your wife. He talking about your whole family putting meat on them like that. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Wait a minute, baby. Show that music, now. You know, in high school, I was only with her for a week and a half, now. But you was with her. So, imagine how you felt when you was with her. You felt some type of way. That's your wife. You got kids.

10:59Yeah, but listen to me. And this is the good thing, now. If you can get Luca to react like that? Most of the time, okay, everybody else, that's the scout report. How did we rattling? What would you do? We talk trash. You talk about effing somebody's wife, they're going to react like

11:13Shannon Sharpe:that. You talk about effing somebody's wife, that's how they're going to react. You talk about effing somebody's family, yeah, they're going to get that. You're going to get that up out of them. Yeah, they got some dudes. Tell somebody on the football field and see what happened to you.

11:29Chad Johnson:Hey, that's Cole. He's going to do you like Andre Johnson, done that That little DB at the man. Rand dollars. Corlin Finnegan?

11:37Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. Yeah. Hey, them boys were going at it, boy. They were going at it. Okay, we also got some sound from J.J. Reddick, the head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers. Let's see what you're talking about. J.J., did you guys get any explanation from the officials on the technical for Luka? No, but we'll obviously try to get that rescinded. I'm not sure what happened. And I do know that, you know, there were certain things said in a language that the referees couldn't understand in references to Luca's mom. And, you know, again, I think they just – Austin gets targeted three times by Carter. Like, they didn't have a real good control of that basketball game.

12:22Shannon Sharpe:And the win – Hey, he getting fined, huh? No, he getting fined. He got 16 texts. He talking about JJ. I'm talking about for criticizing the officiating. He didn't criticize him. He didn't criticize him. Oh. Hey, check this out. This is what Golga explained his side of it. I have all the respect for Luka and what he's done. I really respect everybody's family. Where I come from, it's really sacred, and we really respect each other's family. I would never directly say that. He didn't say it. He didn't say it. He said he wouldn't directly say it, Ocho. So he did say it. He just wasn't directing it to Luka.

13:07Chad Johnson:Man, listen.

13:08Shannon Sharpe:He said maybe I wasn't talking about his mom, but maybe I was making reference to somebody else.

13:14Chad Johnson:Yeah, he tripping. Hey, Buddy say by any means necessary, he trying to get him a dub, right? He trying to get a win. Hey, if I could throw you off your game, hey, get you out of character. There's some guys who dirty like that. Okay, Ocho. Yeah, for sure. Yeah, talk about your family and everything. Get you out your body. Yeah.

13:37Shannon Sharpe:He said, he just said some inappropriate things in Serbian language. I play in Serbia and I understand. I don't know if he understood what he said, so I just said it back.

13:52He don't know. He don't know. He know.

13:55Shannon Sharpe:He know what he said. He know what he said. The NBA going to rescind it. Because the last thing, the Lakers, first of all, Lakers is a cornerstone franchise. The Lakers are playing really well. You want the Lakers in the playoffs, and you want them as a good seed because you want them to go as far as you possibly can. Yeah.

14:11Chad Johnson:Yeah, yeah. As soon as you go to checking him about it, he going to go, oh, I don't know no English. I don't speak no English. Now, don't go talk about you don't speak no English now. Yeah.

14:24Shannon Sharpe:I don't know what you're talking about. First of all, you got to be careful talking about people, girls, and wives. And I know Luca's not married. And look, he's had some issues with his mom. If I'm not mistaken, I think I read where his mom sued him. Obviously, we know what he's going through with his co-parent and the two kids. So we get all of that. I understand all of that. but at the end of the day you gotta be careful how you talk to someone about the family because everybody don't play the same what is joke to you is death to someone else hello so everybody it's just joke you not a comedian

15:08Shannon Sharpe:somebody will slap fire from you everybody don't play like you play and people need to understand that I was just playing okay okay They just playing. Okay. Okay, just playing. When somebody slapped the fire at you, I was just playing. But like you said, I mean, it's like them tennis players. They can say things and the umpire have no idea what they say. Right, right. Because they speaking in Serbian or they speaking in Ukrainian or they speaking in Russian or they speaking in whatever. You don't know what they're saying. And so unless you understand, them juggles cussing you out

15:49Chad Johnson:left and right

15:51Shannon Sharpe:yeah

I got you. Yeah. Nah, it's, uh, you're talking about, oh, I got money. No, I'm going to spend money on a whole lot of things, but I'm going to take care of myself. If I can't take care of myself, Ocho, damn. I do have a responsibility for a lot of people. I got a sister, got a mom, got a brother, got kids, got grandkids now. I got a lot of responsibility. but at what cost do I neglect me to take care of everybody else right absolutely

26:06Chad Johnson:Yeah. Bam been doing his thing. Hey, hey. I got Miami making some real change this summer though. There we go. Talk your talk, Joe. Yes, we are. I got to make some real change. It's good that Hero playing well, because I think he going to be a part of it. Yeah. As long as you know. Remember I told you first. Huh? Yeah. Yeah. Y 'all got to get it. I need another game change over there, Ojo. I ain't going to even say who, but y 'all need another game change. Hey, Joe, I know what you're thinking, and I already said it for you. Okay. Huh? Okay. You hear me? Okay. Stay with me now. Yeah. I got you.

26:47Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. Man, look here. Man, hey, hey, hey, Bam been playing some ball, man. Ever since, hey, Asia done came into his life.

26:55Chad Johnson:Hey, he been trying to keep up. Hey, hey.

27:30Chad Johnson:Hey hey hey I can see I can see in the near future Like in the Next some odd months It's strange. I can see Bam getting engaged. I can see him getting mad. I can see it. I see it. I can see it too, yeah.

27:41Shannon Sharpe:I see it. Man, they're a great couple, man. There's nothing not to like about them. Right.

27:48Chad Johnson:I agree.

27:48Shannon Sharpe:There ain't nothing to like about them. Bam don't bother nobody. He go out there and play hard. If you follow this story, grew up in North Carolina in a single trailer home. He's sitting here and his mom, blah, blah, all that. And in Asia, we know, hey, boom. Big man look here. and she is, I've seen her play, like I said, I mean, watching her play on television, don't do her justice. Don't do her justice because she plays both ends of the court. Yeah, she's nice.

28:16Chad Johnson:Well, they going to have a LeBron.

28:19Shannon Sharpe:What?

28:21Chad Johnson:They going to have a, ooh.

28:22Shannon Sharpe:She goes, hold on, baby. Hey, you know I'm on a super max contract now, 1.4 a year. Let's hold on, baby. I ain't beat 30 yet. We got time. Right, right. How old is Asia? She ain't 38? She might be 39, but I think she's about 28, 29.

28:43Chad Johnson:Yeah, I'm happy for them, bro. Yeah, Bam been out of control, boy, since he threw up that 83.

28:49Shannon Sharpe:When she'll be 30? This year?

29:13Chad Johnson:Ballin', ballin'.

29:18Chad Johnson:Hey, look, and if the mama that tall, boy, please. You going to have you a monster in your hand, boy.

29:28Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. If it's a girl, hey, they're going to have a combination of Juju, Maya Moore. Man, they're going to – but I like them. They seem – man, they seem genuinely, genuinely happy.

29:45Chad Johnson:I agree. I agree. I agree.

29:47Shannon Sharpe:I can just imagine. I can just imagine. I mean, look at how she talks about him. Look at how he talks about her.

29:56Chad Johnson:Yeah.

29:57Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. And they're so supportive. She's there. Boom. She's getting all these awards when she's winning her MVP or she had a statue and things like that. He's there. The Olympics, he's watching them. She's watching him. Oh, man. Yeah. I love it.

30:15Chad Johnson:Yeah.

30:17Shannon Sharpe:Buzona West Edens says Giannis Antetokounmpo will be traded if he doesn't accept an extension. Giannis is going into his last year of his contract. So one of two things will happen. Either he will be extended or he'll be traded. The likelihood you'll let him just kind of play it out the last year, we can't afford that. Absolutely. It's not consistent with what they're good for the organization, and that's not a Giannis issue. That's any player that's in the last year. People around the league believe the Bucs missed their window to get peak value for Giannis, and NBA execs said he's still a game changer, but he's 31 with a history of leg injuries.

30:56Shannon Sharpe:And now you'd probably basically be traded for a guy on an expiring deal. So I'm not sure the offers they'll get this summer are going to be any better than what they already got.

31:07Chad Johnson:Man, please. All it takes is one team. It's going to be a couple teams lined up. You can believe that. Now, I'm going to the best.

31:17Shannon Sharpe:Joe, I'm getting the best deal for me. Damn what's the best deal for Giannis.

31:25Chad Johnson:Well, you're going to have to, your hands are tied because at some point, you're going to have to take, you know, you're going to have to take a decent deal. I mean, you, I can't see them not favoring Giannis in this situation. I just think, I know, I know, I know. But I'm saying, what I'm saying is, they want to get some pieces back that's going to help them in the near future. Right. Now, I don't know if you're going to get the value of what Giannis brings. I mean, let's just be honest. No. You're going to have to get somebody who's going off potential, whether it's one of these young guys or, you know, multiple picks.

32:01But, I mean, I'm telling y 'all what's going to happen.

32:05Chad Johnson:I'm telling y 'all where he's going to be when they lose.

32:07Shannon Sharpe:The mere fact that this owner said he either sized the extension or he's getting traded. Joe, when was the last time you heard an owner say that? Me personally, I don't know if I've ever heard an owner come out and say that.

32:20Chad Johnson:Yeah, I don't either.

32:21Shannon Sharpe:So that lets you know I'm getting max value. He might want to go to Miami. Not as Miami, because you know Miami don't want to give up the compensation. That's why Kevin Durant's not down there, and that's why some of the other players that's been trade available aren't down there because they try to keep all their best players and ship scraps off to the opposing team. Right. Ain't nobody going for that. This guy, it seems to me, because Yon has been dealing them around and around him. He tried to kind of back them into a hole. Now, when this thing first came to light two years ago, I'd have got him up out of there.

32:53Chad Johnson:You got him gone? Yep.

32:56Shannon Sharpe:I wasn't winning with him. I wasn't going to win with Giannis. That was over. They had a very special team. They had Holiday. They had Chris Middleton prior to the injuries. Chris Middleton is not the same guy. He's not even close to the same guy. He's not the all-star that he once was. Once you started getting off those pieces, it was over.

33:17Chad Johnson:Well, the problem you're going to have, Uncle Ojo, is, okay, let's say you do have a team that you want to trade Giannis to, but he's not fond of. You think they're going to trade for Giannis on an expiring contract and they know he's going to leave and we just rent him for a few months? That's what I'm saying. So the Bucs can try to trade him to wherever, but at the same time, he's still going to have to sign an extension. Right. You know what I mean? Here's the thing.

33:44Shannon Sharpe:see what he wanted and I can see because you know Joe once they trade you you can't get that extra fifth year about 65, 70. So now it goes to a five year to a full year. Now it's still good money. Don't get me wrong. Man, yeah but 275 versus 200. 300 versus 225. 75 million that's a big difference. 7.5 million I don't care nothing about that. Nike going to make that up to me. I signed a couple of endorsements. 75 is a whole different ballgame.

34:23Chad Johnson:Yeah. But did you hear what he said? He said sign the extension. See, the extension may not be... Oh, he ain't traded. If he signed the extension, he's not getting traded. You say he's not getting traded. Yeah, yeah, no. What I'm saying, though, I don't think the extension is 275 or 300, though. What's the extension for Giannis? I think because he still got, what he got on his deal? He still got two years on his deal? Next year. Next year will be his last year, 27. Last year. I think they going to add to that 27 is what I'm saying.

34:56Chad Johnson:I think they going to add to that last year. Four year, 275.

35:05Shannon Sharpe:He eligible for? Four year, 275. So you add that, that's a five, 250, 350, Joe. I don't know about you. Five or three. That's 70 a year, Joe. Yeah, yeah. That good money, right?

35:22Chad Johnson:Good money. That's an understatement. Okay, I'm just making sure we on the same page. What are you getting to that money on, huh? With all that TV money, all that kicking in? Yeah. Going up. That's what we're going to start seeing. Dudes making 70 plus me. Oh. 70, 80.

35:51Shannon Sharpe:I don't know where Deacon go. Because when you trade superstars, you're not getting value. You're never going to get the value that you get, the player that you're giving up that you're going to get back in return. Now, hold on, hold on, hold on. Every once in a while, you'll get a Shea situation. They've got maximum value for Shea for what they gave up Paul George. Yeah. Yeah, I think OKC won that one. Yeah, I still don't understand what they were doing there, buddy.

36:19Chad Johnson:Man, they ain't seen it. They ain't seen it. He wasn't doing all this, Ocho.

36:23Shannon Sharpe:It didn't matter if they saw it. Kawhi said, if you don't get me Paul George, I'm going to sign with the Lakers. Could you imagine being in that building as a clipper? You're already in the basement. Right. You got LeBron, you got AD, and you got Kawhi. you got to AccuS I don't know what all that the stuff that they signed and these other companies had and got him on the payroll and all this apartments and I don't know if any of that is true I don't care I just know the Clippers had to AccuS to everything Kawhi said or they weren't going to get him dang hey look so Shea was you can see, but Shea wouldn't be Shea if he's with the Clippers because Kawhi is going to get the ball.

37:17Shannon Sharpe:That's why they got rid of Chris Paul. He has to be the ball. He needs the ball. You're like, I can't believe the Clippers. You weren't going to be able to get this out of Shea because Kawhi is the headliner. It's like a comedian coming and he going after Chappelle. that ain't happening you going in front of Chappelle that's a good one I like that analogy

37:49Chad Johnson:yeah hey Kawhi Kawhi over there getting to it too you think he gonna make an all NBA team

37:58Shannon Sharpe:it's gonna be close how many games has he missed is he eligible

38:02Chad Johnson:I don't know I don't know See, I know he averaging about 27, 28 a game.

38:08Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, he having a career high as far as points. And they came back in overtime and beat the Maverick.

38:21Chad Johnson:I'm talking about they ain't playing no defense. Yeah, no. Darius Garland got out. Hey, I see he finally came out 41 and 11. Woo!

38:40Chad Johnson:I think they're going to make the play.

38:42Shannon Sharpe:Kawhi had 34. He was 12 or 22. 5 or 9 from the three-point line, 5 or 5 from the free-throw line. And then you had Darius Garland. He had 41. He was 15 or 24. 8 of 12. 3 of 3.

39:00Shannon Sharpe:Kawhi got one game of wiggle room. If he missed one more game, right? It's a wrap, huh? He can't make it.

39:06Chad Johnson:Oh, he good. He ain't probably got but like 10, 11 games left.

39:11Shannon Sharpe:He got 11 games to play. He can miss one more. Okay. That's why he came back. Remember, he had that ankle injury, Joe. Boy, can't. He came and Joe. Hey, but you know Kawhi, that's normally a month's injury for Kawhi.

39:25Chad Johnson:That boy came back popping that gun. Quick. He said, y 'all got me bit. Yeah, he see what's going on. All these dudes hurt. ain't going to be eligible for nothing. Kawhi going to mess around and be second team all NBA.

39:38Shannon Sharpe:Could be. Yeah. Because it's going to be Topsy Turby who gets the first team because you got a lot of willing, a lot of Luka. Cade is out now. Cade is out of the running.

39:52Chad Johnson:Oh, man.

39:53Shannon Sharpe:Then Cade going to be out of the running after he missed these two weeks.

39:55Chad Johnson:Yeah.

39:56Shannon Sharpe:He couldn't miss no

39:59Chad Johnson:more than four.

39:59Shannon Sharpe:Because you got Cade, you got Wimby you got Jokic you got Shea you got Luka and you got Jalen Brown that's six guys

40:10Chad Johnson:you got five slots Cade ain't gonna be there cause he gonna miss it

40:13Shannon Sharpe:six guys five slots how you got Luka averaging damn near 35 points a game and his team is number three he gonna be

40:21Chad Johnson:he gonna be there he gonna be first team leading the league in scoring he gonna be first team

40:28Shannon Sharpe:leading the league in scoring

40:28Chad Johnson:yeah he gonna be first team This is a career high for him, man. Like 33. That's a career high for Luka.

40:34Shannon Sharpe:No, he averaged 34. I think he averaged 34 one year. Did he? He might be. With Dallas? Yeah. We got wiggle room, so. So how many games they play? So he's out the next two weeks. He ain't going to make it. He ain't going to make it. He ain't going to make it. Who is this? K. Because he's out two weeks.

41:05Chad Johnson:He can only miss what? Four or five games?

41:09Shannon Sharpe:He can miss eight more games. Eight. How many games they play in the next two weeks? Eight.

41:15Chad Johnson:Shit. He better wrap that thing up and get on out there.

41:25Shannon Sharpe:because Luka's averaging 33 I think Luka's career high is like 33.9 maybe 34 Joe

41:35that boy balling boy yeah

41:40Shannon Sharpe:how do you leave Jokic off he's leading the league in assist and rebound you ain't gonna leave him off And he got averaging 29 a game. Wimby. How do you leave Wimby off? Jalen Brown, he has his team in the number two slot. A large part of this without Jason Tatum. Well, obviously, he's not leaving Shea because his team is the best, and they're on an 11-game winning streak, and they have the best record. So basically, it's going to come down between Cade and Luka.

42:14Chad Johnson:It's going to be a good one.

42:26yeah so

42:29Shannon Sharpe:it's gonna be it's gonna be very very interesting um but but I can see KD playing another four or five years though oh he because he he doesn't have a weight problem um he can shoot the ball that's not going anywhere yeah

42:48Chad Johnson:And he loves playing the game.

42:49Shannon Sharpe:He loves playing the game. He loves playing the game.

42:52Chad Johnson:That's what makes the biggest difference. Get them gym rats. He a gym rat. He always in the gym, always working on this craft. You got to love guys like that, bro.

43:04Shannon Sharpe:Boy, that's the only way you can play that long. You can't play that long. Ain't no way you can do something for an extended period of time that you don't love. Ocho, you hear people on the regular job. They stay on the job 30 years, 40 years, 50 years. they ain't staying there just cause they getting a paycheck not on one job you gotta love it to stay somewhere 30, 40, 50 years you got to you ain't got no choice man please

43:35man

43:37Chad Johnson:hey let's get down to nut cutting time now fella

43:42Shannon Sharpe:Luka averaging 33.4 points a game Damn.

43:51Shannon Sharpe:His career high is 33.9.

43:58Shannon Sharpe:Since his rookie year, he's never averaged fewer than 27.7. So he went 21.2, 28.8, 27.7, 28.4, 32.4, 33.9, 28.1, 28.2. Damn. 33.4.

44:18Chad Johnson:Hey. They say what they want about old Luka Luka. They get it done, boy.

44:24Shannon Sharpe:But see, let me ask you a question. When James Harden was in Houston putting up all them points, with James Harden playing defense, Joe, you play with him.

44:32Chad Johnson:No, no, no, no.

44:34Shannon Sharpe:Don't nobody say anything about when Steph, Steph was winning on MVP. Steph wasn't sitting in the chair guarding nobody. All right, look. he's doing a lot better job. He's trying. He's not getting beat off the first dribble. Because once you get beat off the first dribble, Joe, you compromise. The entire defense is not compromised because we got to rally to get in front of him. And so people got to come. Kick, drop, dish off, lob. Now you're at the team's mercy. Hey, Uncle Joe, he's not getting beat off the first dribble, but he's getting beat off the second. That's okay.

45:12Chad Johnson:That's okay. That's okay. I think people, he got the O-Late defense where, you know, he don't slide them puppies no more than once. Yeah. But, you know, at the same time, I think what's really glaring is that the complaining to the refs are kind of Ochoa. Yes. If he don't do that, I think he'd be in a much better, you know, spot. He can't help it, Joe.

45:38Shannon Sharpe:He can't help it. It's a part of him. it's a part of him. He can't help it. Once you've been doing something that long, it's hard to break them habits. Even if he makes the shot, even when he gets fouled, he's still at the free throw line complaining. I'm like, bro, you at the free throw line. What more you won't?

46:02Chad Johnson:Yeah. Because it don't help you, bro. The refs, remember that. They human now. Oh, yeah. They going to get tight with that whistle. Especially depending on what you're saying, too.

46:11Shannon Sharpe:Man, what? I promise you, he's speaking all Slovenian when he's talking to the... When he's talking reckless, he's speaking Slovenian. He ain't speaking English. Hold on.

46:24Chad Johnson:Hold on. How did he get the tick tonight? I didn't see how he got the tick. After the dude said something to him? Yeah, they were jawing back and forth.

46:30Shannon Sharpe:And he gave both of them a tick? He probably told him to cut it out. He kept going? Mm-hmm.

46:40Shannon Sharpe:but everybody be wanting MVPs to be David Robinson or Kobe or Elijah one, Jordan, LeBron. Come on, man. Yeah. Yoki. I get prime example. When have anybody ever said, man, Yoki played outstanding defense.

46:55Chad Johnson:No,

46:56Shannon Sharpe:he got three of them things. They finished second a couple of times. Ain't nobody. Hey, we inherit no, when Yoki's winning, all we talking about the triple double. Mm. Come on now.

47:07Chad Johnson:Yeah.

47:07Shannon Sharpe:Look, I ain't saying Luka's ever going to be, he ain't going to ever be an all-defensive player. But I tell you what, you better be able to, you better have somebody that can match his output. Right. Because he going to get 30 to 40.

47:23Chad Johnson:Yeah. Yeah.

47:26Shannon Sharpe:And if he get it going early and you can't turn that faucet off, he going to get 50.

47:32Chad Johnson:He going to be in here. And you like this LeBron you've been seeing?

47:36Shannon Sharpe:I do. I mean, sometimes it's like, damn, bro. I mean, he's bought into this role. Yeah. He jumped on this role with both feet. And it's not easy because we've seen other great players that couldn't adapt.

47:55Chad Johnson:Yeah. Yeah.

47:56Shannon Sharpe:We saw this with AI. He couldn't. He went to Detroit. He went to Memphis. He couldn't. He couldn't do it. It's hard. think about how long you've been the guy Joe you've been the guy in high school you've been the guy in college you've been the guy for 15-16 years in the NFL I mean NBA so you're talking about 15 years in the NBA 3-4 years of high school that's 18-19 years and another 1-2-3 years in college and now they say nah bro and for LeBron think about it LeBron has been the guy all his high school career and basically until last year. So for 21 years, and they say, nah, bro, nah, we don't need you to go to two.

48:44Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. We need you to go to three.

48:47Chad Johnson:Yeah. Mm. I just, I think naturally, I think taking upon himself, I think he's really winning to this role. I don't think nobody came to him and told him that you're going to be a third option. I think he's kind of assessed the game in the way these dudes been playing from the start because he missed so many games to start the season. I think he just came in and took that role because he probably like, man, I don't want to mess up the chemistry that's going on, the winning that we're doing. I'm just going to add to it. I ain't going to lie to you. I kind of like this Bron. I do like this Bron, obviously, when he got it going.

49:24Chad Johnson:But just 13 attempts, Ocho, I mean, it's career low. Yeah, I mean, it's career low, but you got to understand, because Luka is playing so well, because Austin Reeves is playing so well, hell, LeBron might even like that. He might like being the third option because he is 41, because of his age, not having the ball in his hands, knowing when to assert himself in the games and when not to. Shoot, that sounds like a good role to me, especially at that age. He definitely can play a couple more years playing this role, Joe.

49:54Shannon Sharpe:Yeah? He definitely can play a couple more years playing this role. I can really see LeBron playing 25 seasons.

50:04Chad Johnson:Oh, yeah. Yeah, he had 23 now for sure.

50:07Shannon Sharpe:23.

50:07Chad Johnson:Yeah.

50:08Shannon Sharpe:I can see it too. And somebody want to get 45 ,000 points? Mm-hmm. Oh, well.

50:16Chad Johnson:Yeah, because he's putting that out of your misery. He don't even want y 'all coming into the NBA thinking you're going to catch this here.

50:23Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. Yeah, I agree. How many Kevin Durant points points Kevin Durant has scored this year? How many total points?

50:33AD.

50:42Chad Johnson:I ain't gonna lie. I kind of wanted to see Bron and KD or Bron and Steph kind of team up.

50:49Shannon Sharpe:Yeah.

50:52Chad Johnson:For they latter part of their years for at least two years.

51:04Shannon Sharpe:So there's a chance he might get 2 ,000.

51:08Chad Johnson:Where he at now? How many points he at now?

51:12Shannon Sharpe:He got 1 ,723 right now. How many games do they have left?

51:20Shannon Sharpe:10, 11.

51:32Shannon Sharpe:We got 12 games left. So basically, if he averages, if he averaged what he's averaging, which is about 26, right?

51:47Shannon Sharpe:He had 25.7. So with 12 games to go, that's about 10, 250. So he's looking at about 300 points, about 305. So that'll give him 2 ,000. If LeBron doesn't play another game and he plays another five years, he's probably still going to be about 1 ,000 points short. So if LeBron plays another year, another two years, KD's going to have to play another seven years KD's in year what? Year 19? Year 18 I mean he's 19 season but because he missed a year for that thing it's only like 18 on his body

52:35Shannon Sharpe:so I think KD has the most realistic chance you think he got a chance of catching? I do

52:48Chad Johnson:that's gonna be a tall task oh it is now yes

52:59Shannon Sharpe:but that's at the current pace he's got to play the same number of games he can't he got to keep this average up

53:06Chad Johnson:that's the thing so how many games he played this year

53:10Shannon Sharpe:70 60 no he played 70 He ain't played all of them.

53:18Shannon Sharpe:He's played in 67 games. So if he played the last 12, he going to play in 79.

53:30He going to play race too tight.

53:34Chad Johnson:Can't sit out.

53:36Shannon Sharpe:No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. He can't afford to lose any game. He can't afford to lose any game. you think Miami gonna win Ocho

53:47Chad Johnson:Purdue ain't no punk now I know they not they good now Purdue good but I'm just saying

What happened? Well, Miles ain't never been no scorer or no... He's mainly a defensive guy. Anything that you get from him on the offensive end is plus.

1:26:45Chad Johnson:Extra work. They thought pairing him with Giannis, he would space the floor, be able to knock down the three ball. They thought he would be a shot blocker or a rim protector. I'm not sure they got any of that. For 108?

1:27:01Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. Dayday24, what's up, guys? From NOLA, ask the chat need a petition to make ISO a permanent member of NICAP. That's what the people want. And still, hello.

So, who's the DN that had blocked three times on the third time? He carried you to the sideline screen. Don't call that it. Ooh, I think it was Jeff Logerman. We playing Jacksonville in the 98. 98, yeah, was it 98? No, it was 97 in the playoff game, running 16 power against the over front.

1:27:58Shannon Sharpe:Against the under front, it's easy because the linebackers on the ball, the tackle and I, we're going to double-team the defensive end. I'm going to push up, block the backer. No problem. And a seven-over front, I got the end by myself.

1:28:12Shannon Sharpe:225, 275.

1:28:14Chad Johnson:Whatever.

1:28:14Shannon Sharpe:Don't run that shit no more. I got it the first half. I got it, Joe. Got it. Walked in that door, Joe. I got it. Damn. After that? Got 10 yards, too. I was like, okay, I'm done with that because I hadn't told myself. I said, Shannon, you only got to do it one time. I didn't really think once. Only one time. I got this. I got this joke. Here.

1:28:38Shannon Sharpe:Ran it again. This time we got three yards. They called that thing one more time. Man, that joke took me in the backfield and stopped TD for a modest three-yard loss. Man, I walked to the sideline. Don't y 'all call that no more. We got in the film room on Wednesday. Hey, guys, take a look at this. You think 84 mad? We got the whole team in there, Ocho. And I'm up there doing it.

1:29:16Shannon Sharpe:828 style, what's up, fellas? I'm a lifelong Duke fan, and Layton was the best Duke player ever. Grant was the Layton of what Pippen was to Jordan. They didn't win ships until both joined each team. Hill was a better athlete, though. Yeah. But you look at, I mean, people don't realize how good Chris Delayton was.

1:29:34Chad Johnson:Yeah. He was nice. He had all the post work, all of it. Shoot the middie. He was nice. Made guys better around him. He was nice.

Man, I'm not a – Ocho is the gamer. I don't know if Joe played, but I ain't never been no gamer. I ain't know nothing about no rating. I know one time I had a 100 rating, but that's all. I didn't play no video games, man. Them guys used to take it on the road, and they play in the hotel room. Ocho, you know more about that than me, but I don't know nothing about that. Yeah, yeah.

1:30:21Chad Johnson:Yeah. What's your range was on that? I think the highest I was was a 98. Yeah. That's high. Yeah, 98. Yeah, I was all right during my day, Joe. You know? Yeah. I used to pick him up and put him down, yeah? Man. Yeah, I'm a gamer.

I won't do it. Ocho, you can tell it. He last. He ain't better than Caleb. He not better than Goff, and he not better than Jordan Love.

1:31:42Shannon Sharpe:Okay, what else? Who not? I'm going Goff first.

1:31:46Chad Johnson:Huh?

1:31:47Shannon Sharpe:Huh? I'm going golf first. I'm saying, I'm just saying Kyler is last. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Out of the four, he is last. Yeah. No disrespect.

1:31:58Chad Johnson:We're just being realistic. Yeah.

1:32:03Chad Johnson:He gonna make y 'all eat them words, though. I mean, that can change depending on his play this season, man. Yeah.

1:32:13Shannon Sharpe:But I think all the guys better than he is. I mean, he might have, I mean, Caleb has just as good escapability. He might not be the runner once he break the line of scrimmage, but as far as escapability, ability to throw on the move, Caleb Williams is a top five quarterback being able to throw on the move.

1:32:32Chad Johnson:I agree.

1:32:34Shannon Sharpe:Going both ways. Yeah!

1:32:39Shannon Sharpe:Black Moses 26. Hope he passes LeBron. KD. Steeler path 86. How good was Cordell Stewart and how good would he be in today's offense?

He could throw it. Cordell would be very good in today's offense. Well, he's playing in Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh, yeah.

1:33:15Shannon Sharpe:Brandon Martinez 56-57 Ocho who you got winning you wait for Champions League a la Madrid oh that's that's a good one to probably Madrid Madrid probably might win or maybe maybe Arsenal Arsenal might Arsenal might pull it off
