Nightcap Hour 2: Lakers GIVE Austin Reaves the BAG + Kawhi WON’T Sign Extension with Pistons OR Heat if TRADED + BIG3 Week 2 PREVIEW + Alyssa Thomas SUSPENDED for FOUL on Caitlin Clark

12:54Shannon Sharpe:It ain't too bad, man. You know, I got a, I held my suitcase. I held my suitcase and I tried to hold it for about five minutes. You know what I mean? I said with Jordan, because you know Jordan got all the equipment. I said, well Jordan, put your suitcase on it too. I said, okay, okay, I'm good. I'm good, you know? Mm-hmm. Hey, hold on, aunt, what you doing for your birthday? I do a little something, you know.

13:19Chad Johnson:Ah. Oh, now he won't turn in the shot guy. Yeah.

13:25Shannon Sharpe:Moving in, moving out. Moving in, moving out. Disco lady. Come on, Johnny Taylor. Hey, that's damn, right? Hey, no, but look, watching Austin Reed come in, being undrafted and see every single year get better and better and better and better. Yes, sir. That just shows me. If you work on your game, it's hard not to get better. When you see guys, and I said this, and I hate to bring this up, when I watch Ben Simmons, ain't no way. Ain't no way. If you're working on your game like you're supposed to, you're not getting better. He got no better from his rookie year. Not possible, bro. He never got any better, which tells me there's no possible way he was working on his game.

14:17Shannon Sharpe:or maybe he didn't know how to work on his game. But I look at a guy like Austin Bees, undrafted, get better, better, better, better, better. Look at the guys. Just look at the guys. Better, better, better, better, better.

14:32Chad Johnson:Bro, bro, Ocho, those are the guys that are obsessed with the game, bro. And not what the game brings. Yeah, they gym rats. They always in the gym. They always working on something, whether it's their handle, whether it's being more consistent with my shot, whether it's my one dribble pull-up, my two dribble pull-up. You know what? Let me work on this flow game today. Let me work on my back to the back to turn around over the left shoulder because in the game, I don't really have a lot of confidence, and let me work on that with this. You know what I mean? It's working on every facet of the game, bro.

15:04Chad Johnson:It's being a gym rep, and that's what Austin reveals, Ocho. You look at from his rookie year to now, bro, he's night and day. Like, once he gained that confidence and he knew guys really believed in him, man, he came through. I mean, time and time again. He's been a clutch player for the Los Angeles Lakers, and he's just improved every year, bro. So, you know, kudos to AR once again, man, for that new contract. But it's time to show up and show out now, boy. Expectations. Expectations.

15:35Shannon Sharpe:Kawhi Leonard reportedly wouldn't sign an extension with the Pistons or the Heat if they traded for him.

Today we're diving into a fascinating conversation with Stefano Pallard, head of fan development for Scuderia Ferrari HP. Your pronunciation is strongly American. It's more Scuderia Ferrari. I'm still working on rolling my R's. But what I was able to learn from Stefano was the importance of engaging the Tifosi, the Ferrari superfans in the digital age. Ferrari fans and superfans want to be part of something, want to belong to something. So they want to be part of a community, and ultimately they want to be part of a winning team.

18:57You've got Ferrari, which has a long history, design history. And now you're interacting in a kind of digital space. I'm curious how you balance those two traditions. When it comes to fan engagement, it's really digital technology and digital channels are being able to create a deeper connection with our fans.

19:30Shannon Sharpe:He would only consider signing an extension with the Raptors or the Spurs if he were traded. Clippers are reportedly determined to keep Kawhi. Bro, you was with the Spurs. You didn't want to stay. You was with the Raptors. You didn't want to stay. Nah.

19:48Chad Johnson:He said that was then. Then now. That was then. Then now. Yeah, hey, hey. They got something going. They got something brewing over there. But, hey, hey, the one thing about Kawhi I love about him is that, yeah, you never know hell when he going to play, but when he does play, bro. Boy, can you imagine him with the Spurs? Oh, no. No, I can't. I ain't going to lie to you. If you put him with the Spurs, oh, they favored in the West. Oh, no question.

20:20Shannon Sharpe:They are favored with Kawhi Leonard on the Spurs. They are absolutely favored.

20:26Chad Johnson:hey, even if you put him in Detroit, I like him in Detroit.

20:30Shannon Sharpe:I like him. Let me tell you why I like him in San Antonio. Because now I got a guy I can give him the ball in the last two, three minutes of the game, and he can get his shot. He going to get to his spot. Right.

20:45Chad Johnson:Stop it. You pair him. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You pair him with Wimby, that's trouble. Hell, I think if you pair Bron over there with Wimby, that's trouble. Yeah, for sure.

20:56Shannon Sharpe:Because you got a guy that can handle the ball.

20:58Chad Johnson:Yeah.

20:58Shannon Sharpe:You got a guy that's going to make everything right. You got a guy that's going, hey, ain't no way they had them lead with Bron on there. They losing the game to the Knicks.

21:06Chad Johnson:That's what I was just going to say. Ain't no way in hell he let them lose. He controlled the tempo. Bron, he'll run the shot clock down. He'll get a shot clock violation before he damn run. Yeah.

21:17Shannon Sharpe:And guess what LeBron going to do? If the coach don't call a timeout, he's going to take the ball out, and LeBron going to put it down, and Mikey Johnson ain't going to have no choice but to call the timeout.

21:30Shannon Sharpe:Man, Kawhi, look, I don't know if Kawhi make the Raptors. Look, I understand. Obviously, I don't know if you keep B.I., Scotty Barnes and those guys. But Kawhi with the Spurs? Ooh. You know, sometimes. That's cheap. That's cheap. Like Dorothy said, there's no place like home. No place like home. No place like home. Bron did it. Kawhi go back to San Antonio. All is forgiven. They won a championship. Excuse me. Won another championship because he won one. He was finals MVP there.

22:08Chad Johnson:That's crazy.

22:09Shannon Sharpe:The question is, I know the Clippers want to keep it. How much, Joe? How much longer are these? Because, look, I know these needs. He 33, 34, but he got some 40-year-old needs, Joe.

22:31Chad Johnson:He probably got a couple good years left in him. Okay, Ocho, right situation. Now, I don't know about the Clippers. You know, obviously, they probably trying to. No, the Clippers ain't winning them, but he can be, you know, He can be a good locker room guy, a good vet, who's still a major contributor, putting up great numbers. I still think he got great value, bro. Now, if you want to trade him, you can put him in a situation to where wherever he goes, he's probably going to have a better chance of winning a title. But I don't even know if Kawhi care about that no more. Kawhi just take me for a guy, man.

23:06Chad Johnson:He want to win.

23:08Shannon Sharpe:Because why else are you doing that? They're not winning, Joe. That shift done sailed on the Clippers. The Clippers ain't winning.

23:17Chad Johnson:Yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah.

23:18Shannon Sharpe:The moment he couldn't stay healthy and Paul George got hurt, that was over. They're not winning. I don't care. They're not winning. And they didn't gave up too many assets. So now they couldn't add because of what they gave up. It's Kawhi. They didn't really have a choice, but the accuracy was to his demands. I'm not coming unless you get Paul George. and even if it means emptying out everything, do you really want to see LeBron, Kawhi, and AD at the Lakers? Woo! That's a championship. Multiple.

23:55Chad Johnson:Man. Man. Hey, listen. I think right now the Clippers probably will trade him up because he still has great value and you can get some assets back, meaning maybe draft picks, maybe a couple players. But, hell, I think the Clippers trying to go young, bro. They just trying to figure it out. You know what I mean?

24:18Shannon Sharpe:They already got something. I mean.

24:21Chad Johnson:Hey, hey, hey, but that's what you run into when you create these big threes and they don't work out. You stuck. Yeah, this is what you run into, the rebuild. This is part of the rebuild.

24:31Shannon Sharpe:Look, they've tried everything. They've tried Kawhi Paul George and James Harden. They've tried Kawhi Paul George and Russell Westbrook. they've tried a number of different threes and it hasn't come to fruition. And like you said, Joe, that's what happens. When you gut your team to put this together and it doesn't, if you just win one, he says, okay, it was worth it. But if you win nothing.

25:01Chad Johnson:I'm talking about I ain't close.

25:04Shannon Sharpe:And a lot of that had to do with Kawhi being hurt. and you know the the bubble they had a lead they had a 3-1 lead and they lost to the Nuggets yeah you know what I saw Joe you was in the league when they played when they was in the bubble Joe you were still your last year was what 2018 or 2017 yeah 2018 I think Joe, did you realize two teams wanted to cancel the season before they went to the bubble? What two teams were that? Clippers and who's the other team?

25:52Chad Johnson:Lakers.

25:53Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, they wanted to cancel the season. The other 28 teams want to continue. So, Ocho, next time you hear somebody say that's the bubble championship, you ask them why do they want to continue to play? if it was going to be a bubble championship. Because see, everybody thought they could get a cheap championship. You mean that joke? You mean that joke? Everybody thought they could get a cheap one. And then when they couldn't, they tried to diminish the demand. They did get it. Yeah. I don't even know why I brought that up, Joe. You know what I'm saying? I was just spitballing a day going through.

26:27Shannon Sharpe:I had some time on my hand. Got done with club shit. Just had some time on my hand. I said, let me go back and speak. I kind of knew we were going to probably talk about Kawhi. I said, huh? You mean to tell me the two LA teams voted to cancel the season? The other 2018 said, nah, let's continue to play. And then when they didn't win the championship, they tried to diminish the man that did. You see how they did that, Joe? Yeah. Because you couldn't get Miss America. You wanted her. She wouldn't go out on a date with you. When she go out on a date with Shea, she ain't done. He think he got... Whoa!

27:05Chad Johnson:Why you asking a lot of you didn't think she was all that? Hey. Hello. Yeah. It always play out the same way. Same script.

27:18Shannon Sharpe:Guess what? There's an old saying, sometimes a man can make his destiny on the very road he took to avoid it. Yep. Yep. Yeah. A man can make his destiny on the very road he took to avoid it.

27:33Chad Johnson:mm-hmm mm-hmm damn good days yeah

27:42Shannon Sharpe:I ain't going nowhere Ocho that joke is right there in the top right hand screen with the nightcap sign on in the back

27:50Chad Johnson:yeah that's him how do you get back on me the letter S how do you get the letter S how do you get back on me it's crazy I already see what y 'all up to

I'm telling you, and you know playing against Dwight, Uncle Ocho Hill, it's physical out there, bro. You know what I mean? You got to have somebody who can hold it down. I just, I think right now they're probably the favorites. You know what I mean? They got the Billy Preston kid who's playing alongside of those guys, and, you know, he look like a nice player.

29:48Chad Johnson:I got them as my front runner right now. You know what I mean? With it all, Joe? Right now. I know it's after week one, but they look the best right now.

You got to have guys who can do a multitude of things. And they have an elite scorer in Jordan Crawford. And Dwight going to do all the dirty work. You know what I mean?

Yeah, we're going to be a little extra with him. He's going to try to file for somebody. And they see, you know, yeah, they suspended his ass. See, 7 to 10 games. But see, here's the thing.

38:54Shannon Sharpe:When I set that screen, him elbow's like this. You know what I mean? See, y 'all pretend trying to put, uh-uh. I'm trying to get that throat. You ain't looking to get that throat. Nah.

39:07Chad Johnson:I'll get you. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

39:10Shannon Sharpe:But the thing that I love about football is that somebody do something dirty, you can get it back and make it look like a play.

39:17Chad Johnson:Yeah. See, in football, you can do that.

39:21Shannon Sharpe:But once I see how we playing, Joe, because I ain't trying to hurt nobody because I want you to make it home to your family because I know you want to provide for your family. I want to make it home safe to mine. Now, if you give less than a damn about me being safe and me making home and providing for my family, I give two less than a damn about you and your family.

39:41Chad Johnson:Absolutely. I'm with you. I'm with you.

39:43Shannon Sharpe:I'm with you. So if I put you out, if you try to do something to me, oh, well, if I blow your knee out, if I do whatever, it is what it is. It is what it is.

39:54Chad Johnson:Hey, listen. Hold on, hold on. So I come with a good little hard fire. I ain't hurting you, but I ride on your cage.

40:00Shannon Sharpe:If you try to hurt me, if I deem, I don't give a damn what you say. If I deem what you did was unnecessary, you tried to hurt me. You going at him? You going at him, Mark? Absolutely. You'll get back. Damn. Absolutely. Yeah, Joe. Hey, you having second thoughts, huh? All I want to know, I'm going to see early how we playing. Joe, are we playing snap the whistle or are we playing snap the after the whistle? Just tell me how we doing. Hey. Right. I got to get it to you plus shipping and handling. I'm Amazon Prime. I'm going to make sure you get it. Before the game over, I'm going to make sure you get what I got coming for you.

40:45Shannon Sharpe:That's the whole purpose of having Amazon Prime. If I can't get it, hey, sometimes I need Q-tips. Sometimes I need mouthwash. I have to hit that Amazon Prime. I say, well, damn. They must have got the call. They already, Titus barking at the door. I see the Amazon driver jogging through the yard. I say, well, okay. Oh, because I'm going to get you. Oh, yeah, absolutely. You're not going to think you're about to get me, try to injure me, and I ain't going to get your ass back. I'll even get you if you got one of my teammates. Yeah. Man, such and such. Dirty. What'd he do? Okay. Okay. Oh, yeah. Special linemen.

41:29Shannon Sharpe:Hey, man, Sharpie, such and such. Man, he just hands to the face, throw. Okay. Hey, Mike. So you said. Hey, Mike, call Tex. Cross body block. Yeah. I take the whole D line out.

41:42Chad Johnson:Hey, hey, hold on, hold on. So you said if a dude too extra after, like, the play dead,

41:49Shannon Sharpe:but he steady blocking you up, like, you try to push me over the pile. Or you try to go low. You try to hit me on my knees. I got to get you back in your knees. Hey. I don't like that, boy. I don't play with them knees.

42:06Chad Johnson:Yeah.

42:07Shannon Sharpe:You're not finna do it. You're not finna do it. Like I said, I've never tried to. But if you try to get me.

42:13Chad Johnson:Yeah.

42:14Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. For sure. They get back a month. Yeah. I'm spending the whole day. Ooh, my bad, Cubs.

42:22Chad Johnson:Hey, I already know it. Hey, I swear I already know it, boy.

42:26Shannon Sharpe:I don't play like that. Because football is already an inherently dangerous game. You got big men running into bigger men at a higher rate of speed. Yeah. See, football, you know, Martin Olson once said, football is a lot like nuclear warfare. There are no winners, only survivors. You dropped a bomb. There ain't no winners in that. Survivors. Okay. The football game is so physical. You got guys colliding every single play. That's not how the body was made. The body was not made to play football. But since we do, okay, let's protect everybody. I'm going to protect you. I'm going to hit you as hard as I possibly can.

43:11Shannon Sharpe:I'm going to hit you hard legally as I possibly can. Once I feel, I don't give damn what the rules say, once I feel that you're going overboard, hey, guess what? We both trying to injure each other. You know, I know Dr. King says, you know, hey, an eye for an eye leaves everybody blind. Well, hey.

43:31Chad Johnson:Yeah.

43:33Shannon Sharpe:We both be looking like Cyclops. You ain't been to get me without me trying to get your ass back. But I am in agreeance with the WNBA for upgrading this and giving Alyssa Thomas a one-game suspension. It was unnecessary. That's not a basketball play. that's not how people brace themselves to fall, falling on their fist whatever you think about that I get it, Caitlin Clark, she the golden child yada yada yada it does not matter that's not how people fall when's the last time, everybody's falling tell me the last time you've fallen on your fist even as a child ever, ever ever

44:19Chad Johnson:she made it look good though so

44:24Shannon Sharpe:I was like damn Kaelin too nice though

44:32Chad Johnson:it's like basically what you're saying is people they know who to do it to for sure

44:39Shannon Sharpe:because you know back in the day guys Ocho they hadn't got away from this but guys used to get up off the ground and they pushed themselves like your head on the ground they get off the ground on your helmet like this and you would get up yeah your head Joe nah man Mr. Moss did me like that man you go back man I tried to point him out of the stadium man Mr. Moss I said Moss what the hell but back then if you were a good player man I remember we was playing we was playing the Raiders as a matter of fact and Greg Townsend and you know Townsend was cool went to the pro ball. That's like, man, I was cooking the Raiders.

45:22Shannon Sharpe:He told Eddie Anderson, Eddie, take this 15-yard penalty. Go to his throat. I said, Town, what you talking about? He's like, Sharp, man, you're killing us, man. We got to get your ass out of the game. Eddie Mahombo, Eddie went to Fort Valley. I went to Savannah State. We played each other. Eddie, Greg Lloyd, they was all on that Fort Valley team. Think about it now. Them jokers at HBCU on the same team. Greg Lloyd, Eddie Anderson. What was the name of their defense again? Ludell.

45:57Shannon Sharpe:I said, man, y 'all jokers. But the Raiders was nasty. But everybody was nasty back then, man. Everybody was. That was just the way they played. That's just the way you played football. It won't fly today, though. No, no. Hell no. Man, they put your hat. Man, they suspended you for two, three games. The stuff They got away with it when I first got to the league in the early 90s. If you did, yeah, they're suspending you for two, three games, for sure. Absolutely. Man, you couldn't – I mean, they put – hey, man, hey, you not – I say, Lord, have mercy.

46:31Chad Johnson:Well, you know, times has changed, man. Same thing with basketball here. You can't do that – you can't do that. You can't foul like you used to foul back in the day. You can't even hand check no more, Joe. No elbow in the back, no nothing.

46:44Shannon Sharpe:No. They're not going to let you do that. They're not going to let you do that. They're not. And I understand it. But look, I think the thing is with Caitlyn, like you said, she came in with such fanfare. Nobody has come into the WNBA with as much fanfare as she has. She got the signature shoe and, you know, she got the, you know, it's reported$6 million Nike deal. And she has all these brands. She has all state. She has, excuse me, State Farm. And she has all these brand deals. before even getting to the WNBA. And look, I don't care. It's the same thing. And the same thing with Jordan. Jordan was getting things that the other guys were like, hold on, bro, how you just got here?

47:31Shannon Sharpe:You already got a sneaker deal. Yeah. Yeah. How you getting all these hype? Gatorade, Haynes, whoa, whoa, what's going on? And guess what? He hadn't even won anything. the guys that had won like I thought y 'all like winners and he getting all this like whoa come on now

48:03I don't care

48:04Shannon Sharpe:when young guys that's how it happened Ocho in the league remember how the salaries these rookie salaries these quarterbacks was making more guys came in Sam Breffin was the last one Sam Bradford come in and never thrown in NFL football other than his workout and make it more than Peyton Manning. Make it more than Tom Brady and all these guys. And it looked like, whoa!

48:24Chad Johnson:Yeah, guaranteed. I remember that.

48:27Shannon Sharpe:Yes!

48:28Chad Johnson:That's why they put that salary cap on there. Now, rookies are

48:32Shannon Sharpe:slotted. This is what you make and obviously quarterbacks make more and normally you get a 10 % increase year over year. But yeah, it bred resentment. They're like, bro, he's not even played. He hasn't even played a game in the league, and he's the highest-paid quarterback? He's making more than Brady and Manning and all these top quarterbacks. Nah, that ain't right. So I understand it. It's just natural. It's just like somebody coming into a new job, and the guy's been there five, ten years, and here's the new guy come in, and he's making more than the guy that's been there five, ten years. It's just natural.

49:10Shannon Sharpe:Yep. Yep. It's just natural.
