Kudos to Samson, he is making adjustments when in a collective - quicker takes, pithy comments and holding back. He is still at his best direct to audience, one on one, but is learning to work in a group setting with so many opinions and personalities. He works quite well as the 3rd option in all honesty (like Bradley Beal in Phx now). Remember he came as the shot caller for so many years as an executive so it takes time to adapt to this type of setting. But he is improving which means he takes constructive criticism and continually works on getting better - even in his 50's.
I agree. The whole point of LeBatard and FRIENDS is getting opinions from different people and make great content as a collective. Love it. Good comment good sir.
This take is spot on and so well delivered. Been wanting to say something like this for a while but could not have come anywhere close to this. Well done!
If you can't provide LOUDER AUDIO WITHOUT FLUCTUATING LEVELS I won't be able to watch anymore 😕 You've been aware of these issues more than long enough to make the simple fix & it is simply too frustrating to continue to deal with this for much longer ugh
@@macdaddy2344 Ah shucks you're showing the world you're an a-hole with nothing better to do in your life then broadcast it publicly 🙄 Sad really lol. Oh & Newsflash... Content creators rely on feedback to keep &/or grow their income Sunshine ;o)
Man... Imagine being a Cardinal fan and watching Wain-o unravel this entire year... ON TOP of the terrible underperformance of the rest of the pitching, the defense, etc. Tough to see him go out like this.
Brooks is a regular all nba defender at a primary position of need who is young and matches the Rockets timeline. He was brought in to be Udoka’s Draymond, and to counteract the last few years of negative development in the locker room and business. And as Amin said, if you’re not somewhere that has natural business advantages you pay more to get people to work for you. With the cap going up it’s not going to look bad, and if they get out of the rut and save the high draft picks they’ve made the last few years from not developing it’ll be heralded as culture changing
He has one second team selection..so he isn't a regular anything....and it was as a guard... so he isn't even that close to dray... ....wtf are you babbling about?
@@mordecaidrake he’s a wing, 27, and never played next to three of the best shooters of all time so yeah no he’s not Dray, but he’s clearly similar archetype wise which is what I meant and stand by. They’re similar players. Talking about the credentials is missing the point, Dray is also getting paid a lot more and is a lot more valuable. Doesn’t change what I said.
@twobarsfourstars 😄 🤣 he says with no sense of irony as he double dips to try to make any kind of point 🙄 ....i didn't change anything....he is a guard... case closed, bozo....stop trying to clarify and twist it so make any kind of sense... this entire statement is hilariously rediculous 😄 🤣
Mike is dead wrong about Brook's contract. Sure, the years are very high. They probably should have paid him a little more per year to get a 2 or 3-year deal but with the new TV deal coming which some places have speculated could be two times or three times with the NBA is getting. Now the salary cap is going to shoot up which means his 20 million a year is probably more like 15 million a year in today's salary cap. Also, I don't think the rockets are going to be competing the first 2 years of his contract anyway, so when they start competing, which would they hope to do in year three or four of his contract? He'll have a very appealing contract that can be traded
Did David Samson really say Portland rather keep Dame? The whole narrative has been that they don’t want Tyler Herro back because he’s a guard and it doesn’t mesh with what they have. Well Dame is set to be 33 and also happens to play PG the position you just spent 3rd pick on another generational talent you were lucky to land in the draft. It makes no sense for Portland to want Dame when all the moves they’ve made have said the complete opposite.
Yes he did & also said they weren’t rebuilding.. He sound like a idiot & that probably the reason he sitting there & isn’t a executive/president anymore
I don't see the contradiction in what Woj and others at ESPN and Shams and others outside ESPN are saying. Portland has no use for Tyler Herro because of some combination of his contract plus already having Simons, Sharpe and Scoot and don't seem to have much interest in a pure cap relief package centered around Lowry. What this means is that Miami is either going to involve another team(s) to make it work or someone else will swoop in and take Lillard and believe that he wouldn't actually sit out. I don't see how those two things are in contradiction.
@@knowledgeseeker1528 Because they think Dame is bluffing. If Philly or Boston traded for him I think they'd believe that he'd come around on playing for them
@@safik20001 Even if they do they're not going to give Portland the assets they want just to take that risk. It will be similar to what mia is offering or less.
MFs hating on Brooks like he is trash.. he is a solid player. And please stop bringing up how players today make more than greats 30 years ago.. it's called progress. Then NBA has 15 players and NFL have 53 plus practice players... stop comparing them.
Why is mike comparing donte deal to gabe vincent? knicks have no need for a fringe starting pg why would he be valuable to them? with fournier getting moved soon they def need wing perimeter shooting
Waiting for an better offer means forcing an top 75 all time 33 year old player to be among 19 year olds figuring out the game... might not be smart as that can be considered damaging trade value
Portland better recognize that Scoot Henderson is watching how they treat Dame in this moment and if they aren’t competing he may not give them that third contract and trust they’ll do right by him either.
Portland has treated just fine, it's Dame that's making this a lot harder for everybody by only wanting to go Miami, when it's not even up to him and he's has no leverage.....I am a huge lilliard and Blazers fan, but quite frankly Damian needs to realize that he made his bed by signing a long term contract with Portalnd and he can't dictate where they send him now....
@@michaelyakubek6997I'm pretty sure he does have leverage and he already did. There's nothing wrong with him only wanting one team. If Blazers were honoring his request from the beginning then Dame wouldn't have had to sabotage his trade value. Nobody broke any rules. They're both just playing the game to get what they want. FO's do it all the time. Can't get mad when a player does it.
Dillon is a better player than gabe, plays defense better was all team defense, gabe had a good playoff run and was trash in the finals, and maybe gabe don’t have a good agent like brooks 🤷🏾♂️
Hero isnt bad. And they will get 3 or more 1st round picks lol. They cant get a big time free agent to go there so they definitely not getting a star. They getting maxey or hero and picks
Mike and all the people hating on the Dillion Brooks deal are too stuck on the $80 million figure. Think of it in relation to the full cap and how the cap will increase in the next several years. It won't be too long before the full mid level exception is $20 million. Listen to what Amin said....average salary in the NBA is ~$12 million.
Gabe stats 9.4 2.1 2.5 Dillon stats 14.3 3.3 2.6 all defensive team, recently bias because gabe help take them to the finals but max Strus 63 million after that final performance
You guys have got to do better, the loyalty thing is an espn narrative, carried for the owners. Dam played into it, and now he's realizing he played himself. And he wasn't with the Blazers cause he was all about loyalty to the franchise, he stayed there cause he is o e of those celebrities who is emotionally caught up with the communities and the people he works for and with. Lillard is not the first, and won't be the last.
So let me get the straight. You would give up multiple assets for a player that doesn't want to play For You.. Starting to make more sense What happened with the marlins.
Love this show, I get the show, loved it and listened to it for years. David Samson is just not right for this show. If anything agrees with him, it’s right. If anything isn’t, they’re lying and wrong and smoke screening. Then his position on the owners and not caring about anything regarding humanity. Mike Schur owned him.
StuGotz needs to be let go. Dude never wants to show up and when he does he is busy online, not listening and then just fakes it. I like him, but he checked out when they left ESPN big time. His goal was always to get a job hosting an ESPN show on TV, that goal is now dead and so is his desire to be there.
So I guess Stugots is just keeping his name and face attached to the show in hopes that the audience doesn't notice that he's not a part of the show anymore..... I see you Stu probably once a week now ( if that) and he hardly even talks when he's there.. it's kind of saddening because I'm almost convinced that him and Dan must have some type of inside turmoil..,.. I miss the old show where Stugots was a part of it
I'll guarantee you the Rockets had a conversation about the Ts and mouthing off to superior players with Brooks. Tone it down, but teach some toughness to our young players. Never can accuse Brooks of not playing hard.
Im tired of Hearing Dame was "LOYAL" to Portland....As if they didnt pay him MAX deal after MAX deal. People acting like he was taking team friendly discounts Like Klay or Draymond did in the past. Dame got EVERY DOLLAR he could
Hero is bad contract bc heat was better without him and bc hr injury prone and had one highlight postseason just like Duncan Robinson who is not nearly as good as ppl say almost to hero extent
Dan’s management mentality is why he knew he needed Skip and Bimal, and co. Samson is right, if player is under contract, team should not feel pressure. I hate them, but see the Spurs (EPL), they are not seeking Kane for less than a king’s ransom. Portland should get whatever they want for Dame. Most cannot be like Pep and let players go as soon as they do not want to stay.
I'm sorry as a blazers fan we really want to send dame to Miami but if the package sucks we need a 3 team deal or were shipping him to Brooklyn where he will play for. i don't want anything Miami has to offer
Why would brooklyn make a better offer than mia for a player that doesn't want to be there? Do you really think they're going to give you all their good young players and 3-4 1sts for a guy they might have to trade by next year?
I just want to know who heard Samson talk and said his voice is good for radio 😂😂😂😂😂 smart man tho. Cruel and evil and probably a coward amongst real alpha men but smart and tho I don't always agree with him he's necessary for a show like this. Dan is my guy tho.
Lillard will be in Miami. The NBA, the media and the fans want it. They will just have to give up a lot of those "undrafted players" that were hyped up all playoffs. All that was advertisement of those players for a trade for the next team's "superstar". They are not "important" or "relevant", so they can play in Portland and disappear and nobody will even notice. But the "superstar" will get what he wants and they can put the Heat on every national game and only if they get Nurkic with Dame the Heat can possibly win the championship. Nurkic really could help (not stop) Jokic. Bam can't do it.
The Heat won't give up so much for Lillard. They aren't stupid. The Heat just need a center that can score, rebound and play defense in free agency. The Heat don't even need Lillard and his massive contract.
Damn man look at these numbers now that the show is coming to us earlier Huh almost as if I said this very thing like yr an 1/2 ago. There timing was awful b4 trying to go up against mcafee Well done boys n girls 👏 👏 👏 👏
The Heat don't even need Lillard at all. They need one good center in free agency that can score, rebound and play defense. The defending 2023 Eastern conference champions Heat will have a better record than Portland's garbage record anyhow.
@@thespaceram2879 you don't even know my team, only laughing because you make it sound like those centers are a dime a dozen. who do you have in mind that fits that description
