It is time for round one of the 2026 NBA draft where the Bucs all of a sudden find themselves with not one. Not well, two. Two two picks. In the first round, number 10, as they had, and number 13, now acquired from the Miami Heat. This is a watch-along type broadcast.
I really do not do these much. Very reactionary type pod, as are the fans of this state.
So if you can't beat them, join them. I will put the link in the comments. And I'll also make sure that I put that on Twitter. As well.
So, if anybody wants to join at any time, obviously we'll take a look at the first few picks here before the Bucs pick at 10. But we will also continue to talk about the Giannis trade now that we're nearly 24 hours removed. From uh Shams. Breaking the news. Sean's been working on the story for.
Nine years. you know And I've been hard on them, but I never saw the vision. I never saw the vision. I never saw that just because he said something like Oh, could the Lakers hire Jason Kidd to persuade Giannis? I was looking immediately.
You're talking about right now? No, it was sowing the seeds. For the eventual trade that would send him to the Miami Heat. For Tyler Hero.
So Shams. I owe you the deepest. Of apologies for not seeing. Your vision. I am quite sorry about that.
This is into the Winkler verse. Here's what we're going to be doing tonight. We are going to be, again, recapping everything that went on. We are going to be watching the NBA draft and following as it goes on. I am following it on my phone.
With DirecTV on my phone, because I tried to hook it up on my antenna TV, but I don't know if this is a problem for anybody that uses antennas. I can get NBC, Fox, and CBS But I can't get AB I can't get channel 12 down here. For some reason, I can get the cozy network. I can get movies, movies, movies, or whatever the fuck. But I can't get channel 12.
So I was hoping not to have a delay. But this whole thing. is going to be uh delay Um what I mean by that is I don't know much about any of these guys. And I'm not going to fake. that I do.
I don't know that you know much about any of these guys. I am not your source. I am your third screen tonight.
Okay, I am your third screen. Your first screen. Is the NBA draft with the wizards on the clock with the five minutes that they have?
So, your first screen is the NBA draft. Your second screen is a reputable source. Maybe you're following the athletic. Maybe you're on your phone and looking at Twitter. Maybe you're doing something like that.
But you have a second screen where you're plugged in trying to figure out what These Picks mean, what these trades are. E T C E T C. I am your third screen. I'm just some fucking guy. that you might know a little bit.
And I'm giving you my takes. My goals tonight, I have two goals, two goals for you. One, is to be able to correctly track these picks. With all the trades and the weird hats and all that kind of stuff, I would like to track these picks. Uh two.
Is Getting pronunciations right. I'm shooting for a B minus. I'm shooting for 80, 82 or 83 percent.
Okay, that's what I'm shooting for.
Now we do have a lot of guys. AJ DeBansa. Oh, they're showing at a BYU. We do have a lot of guys that like we know. A little more than in drafts previous, where it's not these overseas guys that turn into Dirk Nowitzki and Luka Doncich and all these kinds of guys.
So there's going to be more guys that we know. Darren Peterson, they're showing now out of Kansas. But to pretend like I. or any of you have watched more college basketball Than the Badgers or March Madness. I mean, I just can't do that.
And I barely watch. The Badgers. I had two roommates in college that every Monday. They got so into Big Monday. And it's kind of nostalgic.
You know, those two guys are just always sitting in the living room having a six-pack of beers and. I'm watching Big Monday and I'm like, where the fuck are you watching Kansas versus Texas? Who cares? They said, Bart, it's big fucking Monday. Uh you gotta care.
And, you know, maybe, maybe I should have, but. It's too hard. I'm too busy. I'm too busy not learning about sports to Learn about sports.
So that's what we're going to be tonight. And then I'll post these as a podcast. You don't care. I'm just talking out loud. We'll then.
Be on Thursday this week. And we'll hopefully have a good picture of what's happened round one, round two, this Giannis trade.
So we wanted to wait until we knew. Before we fired that up, and I should have. a uh take me out to the poll game tomorrow night with Paul. And uh Horvot.
So That is what is to come. I have a Portland Timbers shirt because they're my MLS team. I picked Portland. I try to pick teams that are kind of like Wisconsin-y. When I don't have a Wisconsin team.
I try to pick. Wisconsin teams. Ish teams. Like, I feel like the Buffalo Sabres have a Wisconsin feel. West Ham, they just got relegated.
So of course. They suck. They're Wisconsin. And I thought the Portland Timbers had a similar kind of vibe.
So I went along with the Timbers. My hat tonight, as of now. There could be a costume change or two. Is the Thanassus hat? Number 43.
Which Yeah. I I don't I don't I mean this almost becomes cooler to wear now. Because not Giannis, it's Thanasis. I've been doing a few interviews today. And when the picks come in, I'll you know, I'll talk I whatever.
I don't know what the fuck we're doing. Um when the picks come in. Obviously, I'll share them. Again, I'm trying to think, do I need production value? This may be a good test run for that, but I don't.
I'm your third screen. If you're watching this right now. To find out who the picks are. Turn me off and come back later. I'm not, I don't know.
Get it on your T. This is supposed to be your third screen. You're supposed to like Have me on a low volume. I know where I stand.
Okay. Maybe a fourth screen if you have one of the fine Odyssey radio stations that are covering the action. Which I'm somehow banned from. I don't get it, but. I don't know what's going on there.
Um But what I've been doing with these interviews is, how do you feel about Giannis?
Okay. How do you feel about Yaddis? I feel Bad. Overall, I feel bad. And I saw somebody had a good post about it.
I got to go find it. Like Giannis meant a lot to this city. You look at what the deer district was before, Giannis. You look at the deer district now. It is completely different.
And Giannis had a part of that. If they don't have Giannis. And if he doesn't Emerge into this MVP player. There's not the excitement about the Bucks. There's not the need to.
You know, want to keep them. If the Bucs were middling as the eighth seed and they needed a new arena. They could have got out of here quicker. Or at all. They could have been gone.
The Bucks could be gone. And Giannis' presence here. Is a big part of that. I don't. I don't think it's the house that Giannis built.
I think that's too much. I don't think he saved the Bucs. I think that's too much. I think that No, I did not get this hat at I dedico's. I got it at a Free game.
I got it freaky.
Okay, you're here for the picks. Good, Lance. I can at least tell you the picks. Good.
Okay. I'll be your second screen. Brewers, what are they? 0-0?
Someone keep me updated on the Brewers. Uh, because I don't know, I'm gonna listen to see. What Silver has to say. I think I can. Good to look at.
Alright. AJ DeBonsa is the first pick forward BYU. To the Wizards. No surprise there. I think the odds on him going number one were.
Minus a thousand.
So DeBonsa goes to the Wizards. Um And again, no surprises here. It sounds like the first four picks are going to be chalk. Darren Peterson, two, Cameron Boozer, three. Caleb Wilson at four.
That's what it sounds like. And then At five, the Clippers could get Uh interesting. There was an ESPN mock that is Brayden Burry's. Uh to the bucks at 10. But the athletic mock I read this morning has him at five, the guard wing.
Uh, to the Clippers.
So once the Clippers pick, I think things will pick up. Uh a little bit. Regarding the NBA draft, we're going to be live throughout the draft. Paul Emming's going to join a little bit later. I have no commercial breaks to take.
I'm loaded up with one Mountain Dew. zero and uh one water And I got a costume change just in case Jesus. I do have a constant change. I don't have a prediction. But it sounds like we might take Ney Ahmet.
Neither mant So I have a Tennessee shirt. Which I need to throw away. I've had this shirt for 25 years. Croatia scored. I had this shirt for 25 years.
It smells like shit, but I got it for two bucks at Mosier's in red granite. And I can't get rid of it. But Jimmy Haslam being a Tennessee backer and supporter and alum. I'm just prepared. I'm trying to reverse Jinx is what I'm trying to do.
I'll get the comments on the stage as well. And then, again, if anyone wants to join at any point. Uh and Paul are going to join us. And a little bit here as well. I also forgot.
what I was talking about before. I just Showed you that shirt. I forgot. I think I was talking about. Yannis probably.
I don't know. But regarding Giannis and the whole situation. Oh, the the house that Giannis built.
So he does get a lot of he does get a lot of credit for that, but But He did change. in these last few years. Giannis did change. He Was tired of being in the same place. And he made us go through that process with him.
I talked about this last night. He also, regarding this hat, Thanes has made. $12 million in the last three years from the Bucs? I mean, if you're lucky enough to get your brother a job and score him 12 million bucks, you're just going to say deuces.
So he changed. Oh, he'll regret it. I don't know that that's true. We want him to regret it. I don't know that that's true.
You can appreciate what Giannis did here, and you should. I mean we want we want we want a title. I want a title.
Okay. There's the light. I want a title.
But it got weird at the end. And a lot of that is Anjanis, I do say. Conner, are you here? Just audio? Just audio, Bert.
Last time I checked, no Wisconsin sports teams have won a championship.
So no bag face reveal yet. Oh, since, yeah.
Well, what about the NBA Cup? Weren't you going to take it off for the NBA Cup? I should have. I mean, the Bucks did raise a banner. I guess if a banner stands, then I don't know if that's in the contract, though.
Have to have Tim Shay look at it. Where are what? I haven't seen you talk about Giannis. Maybe I missed it. What are you thinking about all this?
I'm kind of along the same lines as you, like looking at it 12 years and then last year. Last year, just very toxic. Um, I actually do think it's kind of an interesting story moving forward. We're going to get a lot of like, you know, beat writers writing up stories about what went down this past 13 months. Um, I think it's going to be really interesting to see what happens to are they gonna go on Maggie, is everybody gonna go on Maggie Haberman on us?
Yeah, I don't know who that is. She's the one that's always like writing about Trump. And she's always got like dirt, but then she never tells us because she just writes a book and makes us buy it. Yeah, political book. culture is just a little slimy.
But are we going to get that with the Bucs? Like, are they going to be like, because the Ozarsky article was like, oh, yeah, he told him he's not signing. That was never reported. I think the, I don't want to call out the beep, but the beep should be. questioned here like they knew And are they just too buddy-buddy with the organization?
And like, they're there, they've been there for a while, they're comfortable. I mean, I like Eric Name's pieces, but some of these guys, I mean, Gary Wolfel's the only one that's actually putting pressure on this organization. One of the things that we will talk about tonight Is I think Gary might be back. I think so. He is back.
I think Gary got cast aside. Um And he just bid his time. He should have retired. He should be gone. He should be gone, but he just said no.
I will embrace and I'm inspired by it. I might take the same approach. Like you can count me out if you want, but I. I will find a way back. And Gary.
Everyone assumes Haslam's a source or whatever, but you know, Gary started working the phones as soon as Fagin was out. As soon as uh Lazarie was out. Alex Lazari made it his mission. They almost wouldn't come on our show because we had Gary on. Like, I can't be on your shitty radio show because you had Gary Wolfel on.
Alex Lazari wouldn't do a hit with us. I'm like, Alex, it's not that serious. But they fucking hated him. Gary is back. Wolfel's Press Box is an established website.
I do want people to know.
So, I don't get what Alex Lazarie is saying there. But yeah, I actually agree with what you're saying. I see a lot of Gary in you in this new career arc of yours.
So, use Gary as your inspiration and just keep fighting. I just, you got to, you got, you can, everyone tries to count us out. And I feel bad because I was hard on Gary and I should have, I should have gotten his pocket. Although, the last time I saw Gary, Darren Peterson to the jazz, not surprised. He did not want to work out with them, but they took him.
Um The last time I saw Gary was at the NFL draft in Green Bay. He was at the hotel where I had to go meet a guy. And Gary's like, when's the shuttle come? I'm like, Gary. I'll give you a fucking ride.
And uh Um I don't think he remembered who I was.
Well, good thing you have a podcast. That could be a good. you know, bridge building show. I think that'd be some good content. A little infrastructure week with G Dubs.
Yeah, why not? I could be up for that. I like that idea. And if you look at that tweet that he had dated, that was like a month ago. And he called it a word.
He had the whole trade package. On the 21st of May. And that's another thing. Can I say this, is this a safe environment? Absolutely.
And I've already Whatever. I think one issue that bucks fans, I'm just going to speak on this. I think one issue that bucks fans. have with the people that cover the team. Is They're not covering the team.
in the way that everyone else is covering the league. Everyone else is covering the league. With tweets. And I mean, I get it. They want you to read their articles, but nobody wants to do that.
And they have to tweet more. You have to tweet. And you can't As a blue sky pioneer. Like, I realized long ago, one of these things that I need to start doing, Conan, is whenever I feel like I need to take a stand for something. I just shouldn't.
I should just go with the flow. Oh, I'm not going to get a blue check mark because Eli, just get the blue check mark. Oh, I don't want to use AI. Just fucking use AI. you know oh i don't want to be i want to be on blue just just be on twitter Like I'm not, I'm not going to change the fucking world and I'm only hurting myself.
So that that would be my advice. Yeah, you got to prioritize what you really stand for. in today's world. Neil, I'm going to go till the round one is over.
So I'm going to be here for a while. Tonight, Imig will join us maybe top of the hour. I don't know. So look at Like over the next two, three years of the Bucks, what do you predict? Is there like kind of results?
And do you think in three years, John Horst is still the GM of this team? I don't think he's the GM next year. Fair. I think tonight is a ton of pressure. um i don't even know he's making these picks is he making these picks Or is there?
Do we want Haslam to lead this team? Like, I know people shit on Haslim, but. He wanted the heat deal. And I think that was a better deal. I'm just I think Haslam's got to take ownership over this.
I I So okay, I just told you that I have to. Go with the flow. But also, the other thing is, I do try to. I do try to get. My I I feel like there's opinions I have that I'm you should You should get them before.
You get them, and I got them. And I'm trying to give them to you. One was. Jimmy Haslam bought into this team. And too many Bucks fans were just like.
Well, well, it's still it's still uh Eden's team. The fuck it is. As soon as Jimmy Haslam came here. He's not just gonna come here. He's not just putting his name on it.
He's running this fucking team. And he's going to run it into the ground. In We don't understand what owner what bad ownership is like here. We have no one to compare bad owner. Oh, Herb Cole.
Well, he still gave a shit about you and then made sure the team stayed, only to then have those guys sell to fucking Jimmy Haslam. Like you Anyone who ever said anything bad about Mark Atnazio. Is going to be feeling like a real jackass once they find out what Jimmy Haslam's like. Yeah, I mean, the more time goes on, and we see this all around all sports with ownership, like Mark Antonasio just always looks better and better, in my opinion. I agree.
And then the Packers, you can't compare them to the Packers because. We're owned by a bunch of Fat fucks like me. And uh Ed Polissey came in and announced himself as world's biggest cuck on day one. Matt LaFleur runs that fucking team, that piece of trash. Anyway.
So, who do you like for the Bucs tonight? I don't know. Who do you know either? I don't know. Braden Smith.
Is he going to be available? Yeah. All I know is Nobody wants. The guy From Uh Tennessee. Nobody wants him.
Okay, you're not sure.
So you're not sure who's making these picks for the Bucs. I agree. Who would you want making these picks?
Well, probably not John Horst. What's his, I mean, the only good first-round pick he's had is Dante DiVincenzo and. He gets credit for his success elsewhere. Dante didn't do much here. No.
Who do you think is making the picks? I don't know. Are you going to give it to Taylor Jenkins? Like, he's just got here. I don't know.
But I don't know. I think it's a good question. Jenkins, somebody asked me that today. Like, do you think he knew Giannis was gone? He had to have.
You're not signing here. Expecting Giannis not to be here. Although maybe not. Like, Giannis. And then this bullshit with Chris Haynes last night, where he's like, oh no, it's Boston.
I'm sorry, Giannis has a partner in Kelsh. You don't think he wasn't fucking around in February either? I Giannis, dude, like. Yannis Giannis built so much fucking goodwill. Over 12 years.
But he really did take a blowtorch to it in the last 18 months. He really did. Yeah, he blew a lot of it. That is 100% sure. I would say more than Aaron Rodgers, in my opinion.
Yeah. Cameron Boozer to the Grizzlies. No surprises yet. Yeah, Rogers. Different, a little different.
Because it lasted, what, two, three offseasons? But how long did this Giannis one really last? Like, if you look back now. It's like I would say it started when he handpicked Adrian Griffin. Yeah.
Yeah. Because that's when he went above the as just the player on the team. He was like the organization, if he's making that decision. And what sucks is Let's say the Bucs didn't. Acquiesce to Giannis.
Like, let's say they didn't try to do everything. Oh, we have to stay competitive.
So, we're going to trade for Dame, and then we have to stay competitive.
So, we're going to stretch Dame's contract, which we still have for four years, and then get on a You know, Miles Turner, like, let's say we didn't do those things. Giannis still would have been here. Let's say we didn't sign his brother three fucking times. He still would have been here. We signed two of it.
Like once they signed the second brother, it's like. And for what? Oh, honey, I love you. I love you. She's still fucking cheating on you, no matter how nice of a diamond you get her.
We gave him everything. And he still strung us along. I mean, he sat on his ass and booed the crowd at Pfizer Forum. Why didn't I I don't know. Like.
Again, a lot of goodwill, a lot of great memories.
So I mean lessons. Swimming lessons. But first smoothie. My first smoothie. I have regrets.
You know how I am about Matt LaFleur. I should have turned on Giannis earlier. I should have. All the signs were there, but I was as oblivious as anybody else. Hadsight's 2020 though.
2010 for me. 2010, that's right. I think it's going to be very interesting next year in Miami for Giannis. Because he's had all that goodwill his whole career. He could do no wrong.
And now he's the new gold star coming to Miami, expected to win a championship. These fans have no loyalty to him. He's going to be the most pressure player under the most pressure next year. Can he handle that? He booed the Bucks.
Yeah, Giannis, that's like Giannis. We something, I don't know what happened.
Something happened.
Something happened.
Maybe it was because he. Had a few boys and then became a real dad, hashtag girl dad. Maybe that changed it. Maybe his agent got all fucking weird on him. But like.
Giannis started acting different. Giannis used to be: I'm Kobe, I'm determined. I want. Maybe it was just winning. Maybe it was winning that did it.
Because It's like a business that goes public on Wall Street. You're now, you're a full corporation. Giannis, how many people does Giannis employ? You know, and like, how many people are in his circle that are directly connected to him? Like, he just became too big of a business.
You get so many voices in your head. I think that that's just what happens in the NBA, like the lifestyle, the money, like that. is all what kind of, it kind of corrupts you in that way. I mean, this whole season, well, how many times was he hurt? Three?
Excellent. Uh yeah, well if how many s Didn't he come back? Whatever it was, he faked all of them. It was all fake. It was all fake.
No one even pushes back anymore. It was all fake. He just went down, didn't want to play. Then he did the thing I want to play. Like it's okay.
It's okay. Hey, buddy. Kids in the mirror after coming home from the park. What? The drafts on channel 12.
Okay. Yeah. Tell him Uncle Cone says I. Uncle Cone says hi. I oh, that's the other story I wanted to tell.
I told him this morning. That Giannis was traded. And I have been prepping him. He's six, but he's like seven. He's like he's like almost seven, so I'm just gonna say he's seven now in stories.
But I told I've been prepping him for since the trade deadline.
So I don't think he was surprised. And he doesn't seem that upset about it. Like he, he's. At swimming, he met Giannis. He knows like.
He's seen Giannis probably seven times. in his life. And then we saw him play. I don't know. I I thought he'd be more like sad, but he was like.
Very accepting of it. I'm surprised he didn't say, like, oh, I thought Jalen Brown would be a better acquisition for them. Yeah. You mean, you mean, you know, he goes to me, Daddy, Daddy, does that mean the Celtics didn't want to give Hugo Gonzalez away? They got Del Simmons kids now, right?
Yeah, yeah. I said, Yeah, that's it, buddy. They didn't want to. Give away. Bulls are on the clock.
And they are going to take Caleb Wilson out of North Carolina.
So, four picks. Nothing surprised. uh yet to this point And I believe I'm four for four on names. I'm worried about.
Some of these names, not that they're hard to pronounce or anything, or foreign. I just A lot of these I've never heard them said, so I don't know.
So What else you got? Um I don't want to derail the show with talking too much brewers, but did you see Adam McKelvey's piece today about how asking Christian Yalich about the honest trade? I saw that TMJ talked to Braun, but I didn't. Listen to it. What did Yelich say?
He said he wanted to two things. He wants to stay the rest of his career in Milwaukee, obviously. Wow. And And he wants to win a World Series because he saw how awesome it was for the Bucs.

Granger for the ones who get it done. Yeah, yeah, the the window for yellich to Think he can go play anywhere else is far from gone. That was when he signed the extension, is where Giannis is now. This is like 37-year-old Giannis. This is what Yellich is.
That's what Yalich is. Right now. You want to win a World Series. Good.
Good question. Does Giannis retire on the heat? I still think he comes back here. for victory and for a retirement lap. I don't know.
I don't. I think it's. Like the dame situation could very much play out with him. But I don't think Dame I think Dame wanted to get back to Portland because he realized that's where I want to be. I think Giannis might be too proud.
or not admit that he's wrong. Giannis has changed a lot. Like, I didn't know him in Greece, nobody did. But if you asked eighteen-year-old Giannis, like, And he has. He's talked shit about guys that do exactly what he's doing right now.
He says stars don't chase, they attract. Three months ago. Why? Why the ruse? If you would just be like last summer, everyone got to the point.
Where it was. If you need to leave... We probably need to have you leave too. This is the time. And then Yeah.
Nothing. And then he's more, well, I want to stay. Boo. I love Milwaukee. I don't know my agent.
What are you doing? What is the point?
Now, I did say earlier. A lot of this, and John says, social media, his social media feed. Is full of bullshit. If social media, if the social media era, wasn't what he was playing in. Maybe a lot of this is different.
We'd know less of him. We wouldn't know that he likes smoothies. You would have never said loyalties in my DNA. The problem for him is. He left a trail of breadcrumbs.
where you can go back and see how it used to be. to how he is now. Money changed them. Fame changed him. He became bigger than the organization, and that is.
Always a no-no. That is always a no-no. But that's the NBA. That's for some reason. We thought he was going to be different.
Because he said he was different. We believed them. True. Yeah, it's pretty cringe looking back, like seeing all his tweets get retweeted today. It's just.
It's not a good look. Cringe. It's so cringe. And if somebody. Remember when who was the guy?
Not Ryan Rollins, Ryan Hollins. He was always like, Oh, Giannis sucks. And then he had to give that up. He was on ESPN. If you But if somebody would have been like.
This is an act. This is bullshit. I don't believe him. He would have won the title and he would have signed a contract and he'd be foolish this whole time. But today, like like Shams, I jokingly gave an apology, but He eventually did leave and He was not right in 2019, but...
I don't know. He fucking left. He left. He fucking left. He bailed on us.
He left. It sucks. We fit all these people. We don't have to give Shams the same respect we give Gary Wolfel. No, Gary Wolfel is a same redemption arc.
When they founded this country 250 years ago. If they only knew what kind of patriot. They would have in Gary Wolfel. I mean, that would bring a tear to their eye, I know. Yeah, honestly, it seems to be the only local media member that upholds the First Amendment.
Yeah. Ah, that's true.
So this Clippers pick, this is the one that things are going to get interesting or not? The odds for this coming in were Deleted from my spreadsheet. What does Kalshi say? I don't know about Kelsey. They're showing a few different guys.
I'm going to bring Ben in here as well. Ben, come. Good evening. Cohen, Ben. Yeah, Ben.
And if somebody, if the Bucks do make a like, this could be. Bucks move up. 10 and 13 trade zone. I don't feel like that is happening. I feel like they're going to just take the two players.
But then the issue is if you if you trade up, it's less of a Chance that John Horse fucks up. All right, Clippers are taking The LA Clipper selected. Chief Woggler. Slowly watching our franchise disappear. Keaton Waggler, Guard, Illinois.
A lot of people were high on him. Hoping the fucking trade up for him. It looks like he's going to be a clipper. Again, now, sometimes these guys are drafted, and two minutes later, they say, oh, by the way.
Okay. Yeah. But he'll be a good player, coached by Brad Underwood in college. Just top-tier big-time coach. I got a lot of faith in him.
Yeah. Since we're on the uh Gary Wolfel love train tonight. Let me pull up. His Twitter Because that'll give us a good insight into what's actually happening with the box. And I'm not doing this facetiously.
Okay. So let me pull up Gary Wolfel's Twitter. Here we go. Uh he took a victory lap on what he tweeted. May 21st.
Again, May 21st, Gary Wolfel says the heat are the odds on favor to land Giannis in a trade. Here's the package some NBA officials tell me that he is offering: Tyler Hero. Jaime Jakez Jr. Where? This year's 13th overall pick.
And then some potential late first rounders. Yep, that was the exact trade.
So tonight he says the Bucs have shown interest in Darius Akuff Jr. of Arkansas. And Mikhail Brown Jr. of Louisville. If they fall to the bucks at 10.
He also says if the Bucks are unable to trade up and can't land. Acough, Brown, or Kingston Flemings. Gary would select. Steinbach of Washington at ten. And then uh La Baron Fillon.
Again, 80% at 13%. And I don't think he's just saying that's what he would do. I think he's giving us the old, hey, guys, this is what they're thinking. I think maybe he's telling us what the fuck's going on here, folks. Bart, I think he might be the one drafting for the Bucs tonight.
Oh, there's my DMs. Oh, you said link. Oh.
Sorry. No, I was just watching it on X and then I went on YouTube. Yeah, X is your the internet's town square. Yeah, I'm actually I got an X phone coming in the mail. Should be pretty cool.
Yeah, Elon's new phone. Oh no. I don't know. I don't know if you're messing with me or if you're serious. I don't know about it.
I don't either. I always laugh.
Well, just ask Rock. I can ask Grock because I the machine. Ben, what are you thinking? Had a tough day today. Um Has it?
Yeah, I I think that we would be better off with Yannis in the thirteenth pick. Versus all this bullshit that we have and the tenth and thirteenth pick. I would rather Giannis is gone. Like I thought I would be. I'm not sad.
He didn't want to be here. Fuck it. I think maybe I'm not sad about that, but I'm sad at our current. ownership structure And the The future outlook of the franchise. How did he get away with booing the crowd?
Like that was a five-hour story and everyone just moved on.
Well, I think we should put a bronze statue of Yannis next to the fawns, booing the crowd. Yeah. You know, thumbs up, thumbs down. Yeah, that's what the statue should be. The statue should be Giannis Yannis's favorite memory of being a buck was probably Every two weeks, when he looked at his fucking paste stub in his locker.
That's what the statue should be. That's a little hard. Yeah. I mean, he wants a title, and he brought. The books to relevance and rebuild the deer disc.
Did you see that guy's tweet? About he House sat Giannis' house for seven hours. He took three Orioles, and Giannis got on his ass. I didn't see that one. The guy tweets and he goes, full story on LinkedIn.
What the fuck? It's the weirdest thing I ever saw. John says him booing the crowd was when I realized he was looking for a way out. And he didn't have the mental maturity I thought he did. Yeah, he didn't want to be the one to enact the trade.
He wanted us to trade him. Is it possible Yannis got more immature the older he got? I mean, I'm still a kid at heart. Yeah. I've Like to live by carrying any I'm not getting anything.
I'm not getting any more. Fucking in check here. I don't know. Locked on calves. What's up, buddy?
We're doing okay. Are you going to get LeBron or are you going to um is he gonna go to the heat? I've seen Chris Middleton floated to the heat as well as Clay Thompson. Let me tell you this about my good friend and friend of the show, Clay Thompson. From the show, that's right.
Here. He should just retire. He should take the back men with the Warriors. and play eight minutes a night. And if he makes, he gets two threes, and if he makes them both, he can stay in like challenges.
I don't know. He's facing some adversity these days after him and Meg thee Stallion broke up. I think he's got a little more to prove. Um Yeah, and his dog recently passed, I believe. Ah, sorry to hear that.
Oh yeah. Rip. All right, the nets are selecting. All right, I'm going to bounce back. Hi, Cohen.
Talking to you tonight. Yeah, thanks for coming on. Good to see you, Cohen. Good to see you, Ben. Go bucks.
All right, Mikal Brown Jr., one of Gary Wolfel's targets. Out of Louisville is going to the Nets at number six. I feel like we're missing out on every pick here. Uh oh, for the box? Yeah, I really think that we need to.
Move up. Ah. Mitch says, Hey, this isn't Chicago where we do nothing but bitch. It's Milwaukee. We believe we don't quit.
Well, yeah, that's fine, but we're also soft as shit. Like Giannis booed us and we sat there and fucking took it. Do you understand? Man of the floor can't win a playoff game and you cheer his extension. The Brewers get swept by the Dodgers, and you're happy just to be there.
Like We have to have a little edge on us. Yeah, we don't want to be the fan base that wants to fire everybody. You know, fire capers, people still make that joke. That's not funny. That's an old one.
But we don't like We have to have a l Did they have a little bit of bite? Got a backbone. We have no backbone. A little bit of a backbone. Alex had recently said, I don't think ACOF will be available.
He wants one of the Michigan big men or. Mikhail Brown Jr., who is gone. What were some other comments? I saw a comment about Ja. I guess I am the asshole who thinks that it's worth a flyer because we don't have anything anyway.
Did people already tell you someone stole my spirit Halloween picture and posted it on Reddit? I heard it actually on ESPN Milwaukee today. What? They said it? Yeah, they brought it up, but they didn't reference you as the person that posted it.
Like, oh, I saw a fun guy. Posted a Spirit Halloween over the Anta Tecumpros shop. Oh, I'm for real. It wasn't. No one fucking name.
It was uh Shit, it was on. It was Gabe, Kyle and Rust and they had a guest speaker. Mm-hmm. I don't know. But yeah, they referenced it.
I love that. I made that picture three weeks ago. I made that picture three weeks ago. I was on top of it. Yeah.
Well, I got your recon for you. They're referencing it on I don't mind if people steal tweets and pictures all the time, but when I do, I crop it to where the person. at least is shown that did it. I don't just take the picture unless it's Adam Schefter.
Well, I mean, this was, they didn't show it. They only talked about it. Did they talk about how I did an ass on Giannis like the council sign? I thought that would pop more. I think I heard that one too somewhere.
I don't know. Maybe that's somebody else said that one. That's funny. I'm just giving everyone silent fucking producer around here. Yeah.
People said you can't boo him because he won a championship. You booed Favre, you booed Rogers. Giannis was different because the Bucs had never won. And so I feel like He again, he got More wiggle room. He got a longer leash.
And a lot of it was deserved. Like, he did earn a lot of. He earned a lot of it. He earned a lot of it because he was mature and handled himself the right way for, like he said, 12 years. And then for some reason, he, I think the some reason.
Starts with the J, ends with a haslong. And He doesn't like the ownership and he just basically threw in the towel and said I'm out. I don't want to get injured. I don't want to play here. With this ownership group, you're not going to do anything.
You haven't proven to me, you've done anything for me. And then Doc, I think, was a scapegoat because. Not, he was terrible, and he is terrible, but it was to focus away from Giannis throwing in the towel. Forrest says, in the end, we'll all be grateful for the Giannis era. Oh yeah.
Yeah, definitely. What I'm saying is. Over these last, even just the last year. Yannis We still were trying to like appease him as a fan base and. He made it perfectly known that he was looking elsewhere and He was hard on us, and I think we should have been hard back on him.
The Milwaukee Cucks. We are the fans of the Milwaukee Cucks. That's good, Austin. The fans are the Milwaukee Cucks. Like, if you were going to make it difficult on us.
We should have made it more difficult on you too. Here's a big cuck thing we're doing. Rye says the Hone Bridge, Mitchell Domes, and Discovery World are lighting up tonight in green to commemorate the time Giannis and Portis spent together. I know Portis won a championship here, but this is about Giannis. People weren't gathering at the Bobby Portis mural today.
They didn't go wall to wall on local channels 'cause Bobby Portis got traded. This is part of it. Bobby Portis. Bobby Porter should not be any part of this. My wife is sad that Bobby's gone.
Well fine, but Yanis. But that's the that's the demographic, right? Like The the casual fan who Darius Acuff Jr. Darius Acuff Jr. Has gone to the Kings.
So there's another guy.
So it looks like these guys that Bucks fans have wanted. Um They are gone. Yeah, we're Yeah. The Michigan Forward, what's his name? I don't fucking know.
Oh my god, I know his name. Yaxel Lendenborg? Yeah, Yaxel Lendenburg. Oh, he was yeah, he was pleading with the Mavs to draft him 'cause the 'cause uh May's there now. I don't want Only one of them, though.
I mean, if we get both of them, maybe we'll get lucky and one of them will pan out, but I don't think that either of them are. Didn't translate to the pros well from what I've seen, and I only saw a little bit in the tournament, a little bit in the regular season. I wasn't like a College basketball. aficionado but Remember when Bart All he wanted was Coach Bud fired. How did that go?
That's the revisionist history on this. And that's why I get so. Insane when people look at the Packers and go.
Well, there's injuries. Bring everybody back. There were injuries. What if there weren't injuries? There's been injuries every year since 2021.
Um They probably would have been better.
Okay, not probably, for sure. They would have been better off with Bud than Griffin and Doc because this was the most terrible. Run of Bucks. I mean, this was just brutal. You wasted Prime Yannis years.
And Bug got him to a title. And then they turned on him very quickly. I wanted him gone before they won, so I should take the L on that. I think afterwards. Yeah, because then afterward it was the injury.
So, yeah, my fuck up. I already paid for those sins. Yeah, don't repay for sins that you've already paid for, not worth it. I already paid for those sins. Um I like I liked uh Coach Bud, but It could have been a better coaching opportunity.
Like, we could have gotten a better coach in. That's not an unrealistic. Possibility.
So I I'm It didn't work out that way, but Oh, Frank's got me on the second screen tonight. Uh, appreciate Frank. I wanted to look at some of the things that I bookmarked to talk about before. The Bucks do take their pick. Right now, we're at pick number eight with the Hawks on the clock.
Do you think LeBron goes to the heat? No, I don't. I don't think he ends up there. I really do. I know there's like no evidence or no real Meat on that bone, but I just think I don't think he stays in LA.
I think Golden State's totally in play. Golden State could be in play. I just think the Spolstra reunion with Giannis there. would be like Suppose a LeBron merchant, so it's you know, it's him or Yeah. All right, here's some of the things I wanted to show.
And I think I went through some of these. These are just some things I booked, Mark.
So this is Frank. He's watching the draft and he's got me on the. Second screen there. I can't do the two TVs in the living room. I can't do it.
It's got a little bit of the office feel though to it, like a little Michael Scott in the corner, but If you're going to do it, this is a good way to do it, Frank. We do need to clean up these wires. But if you're going to do it, that's a good way to do it. Tyler Hero tweeting 414 about an hour ago. Tyler Hero, who Tyler Hero.
For the last start of his whole career, he's been like, no, I'm from Greenfield. I'm from Greenfield.
Now he's from Milwaukee. In Guard We Trust, to give Bucs fans an idea of what the Bucs could be looking at with the picks tonight. Here are the best. Players that were drafted 10 through 15 in the last 10 drafts.
So you could find. Uh, DeMontes Sabonis, you could find a Donovan Mitchell, you could find a Shea, you could find Tyrese Halliburton, you could find Jalen Williams, you could find. Derek Queen. You can also find Aware and a Hero, and we have those. I was on channel 12 earlier.
Shout out Tom, new member of the Donation Club. $3.99 a month supports the pod. You get nothing. Although, when I do get merch, I will throw in a discount code, okay?
So there'll be a discount code. And potentially Another secret fun surprise. That I just thought of right now. That I have to check with someone on. All right.
You see the buckshot Bobby comment. I like that one. Buckshot Bobby, where is he? My wife. Sent me to the store to buy toilet paper, so I came back with a Tyler Hero jersey to wipe my ass.
I have something for him here. And that would be this. Um Who says my production values? are lacking.
So they could get it by. Oh, so on channel 12, before I did a hit with them again today. Humble. You did another one? Yeah, I just acquitted.
What time are you? What time? Whenever they have me on, it's usually 4:15. Oh, damn. Yeah, I'm not going to be able to catch that.
Yeah What is that? What is it? Two no, what do we have back in the day to record T V? Long time ago. Was it TiVo?
I think that's what you're thinking. Otherwise, you're thinking of a VCR? No, not a VCR, Bart. But anyway, maybe it's TiVo. Yeah, I should use my TiVo.
Anyway.
But they, uh, Dario aired some clips of like Miami guys he talked to. And one of them goes. Oh, this package for the uh This package for the Bucks is great. They're getting all these. They're getting all these first-round picks.
I mean, essentially, that's what you're getting. Yeah, they're ecstatic they got Giannis, and they're telling the schlub Milwaukee fans that you actually got a good trade. And I don't think nobody thinks Hero's staying here. I don't think anybody well, I heard a couple of people, but I know even those people probably wouldn't be surprised if he got moved. Mm.
Um All right, here's more Gary Wolfel stuff. Oh, this story. Tim Bontemps. Who famously said, Kevin Porter Jr. is not going to do a damn thing in the playoffs.
Is going to join the Hawks front office? That's weird. That's the Kelsey thing I said. This I was going to put on Facebook. I looked at my body today.
My body and my head looked like they belonged to two different people. My head's like bright red and Okay, my body is like fat and White Yeah. Here's every first-round selection made by the Bucs since 2015: from Bucs lead, Rashad Vaughn, Thon Maker, DJ Wilson, Dante DiVincenzo, Marshawn Bochamp, A.J. Johnson. What are we doing?
Yeah. The guy who drafted these guys. Is drafting tonight. He's drafting two guys tonight. The Hawks are taking Kingston Fleming's guard.
Houston. That's a reach. Are you still on?
Some ox, but it They're all in that range between 10 and 15. This pick was closer to the fifteen range though. There was some interest in Ware. Doesn't look like they're going to move him. Oh, Ian Begley was on my ass.
He's like, could you share a link of something that's a swing and a miss from Shams? Yeah, every fucking one of these things. The Knicks want to hire Jason Kidd to lure Yannis in free agency. five years ago. Does the Lakers' latest move lay the groundwork to sign Giannis six years ago?
These are all tweets or articles? Hold up. Did Giannis say he'd play for the Bulls three years ago? This is just ESPN, the ESPN factory. That's painful to look at, man.
Did you collect this or where is this? Just on the website? No, I wanted to show it. today and I couldn't find it and I Crowdsourced it and somebody had it for me because I've seen. I've seen this picture before.
Yeah, this is damning evidence of how terrible their Okay, yes.
So, anyway, those are just some things that I wanted. To share. It looks like there's some conversation in the comments. about how the Bucks are going to be this year and what the expectations are.
Now Maybe those are adjusted in about 20 minutes. When we know who they have, but I firmly believe and expect that it's going to be I don't know, it's gonna be kind of uh bulls-ish. I think they're going to be in the 35-40 win territory. One year they might start out eight and two like the Bulls did this year and then. you know, fall apart.
I don't think this. Do you think this based on our current roster or what the outcome will be post-draft? Are you making a prediction, or do you think currently you're saying? It just it feels like What we had was a team. With Drew and Chris and Brooke and Giannis.
And then what we had last year was. Giannis with a bunch of spare parts to other toys. And now we just got a bunch of shit. I don't know. You got one-fourth of the heat roster.
So at least they've played together. But that team wasn't any good either. Like the heat have the heat have been like this. And I don't, we're not tanking.
Okay, people are talking tanking. We're not tanking. They're going to try to be competitive. I think they're going to try to be the best team that they can possibly, but they're not. The best team they could possibly be would be thirty-five wins with the current roster construction, in my opinion.
We need to hit on these picks. No, yeah.
Okay, Dwayne, we'll see what. We'll see what Jenkins does. We'll see what he looks like. I don't know. I just I and it right now it's too It's too early.
or too difficult. to try to factor in like I want the raw motion. I want to the instant reaction, the gut reaction, you know. I just think we're going to be a play. We're a playing team.
I th yeah, if that, it'd be an ugly play in game. No more NBA Cups. Yeah. Yeah. Dallas is picking.
They say the pick is in. Pick is in. And then the Bucs are on the clock, folks.
So. We will have the pick for you here. We'll react to it.
Okay. If you are listening to this on the podcast. I am going to this is part one.
So it's kind of like a Giannis recap just for the audio consumer. And then once the pick is made. I'm going to chop it up and make it a separate show. I'm doing that for. My own self-reasons.
But also it's going to be two different shows. This was the this was kind of still another Giannis show. Whatever. I don't need to justify my. It's your universe part, we're just living in it.
I love going on shows 'cause they're always like Our next guest has a podcast that's called, it's called. It's called Into the Winkleverse. They never get it right. All right. It's big.
Nice tech. I'm behind, I think, but here I'm going to have. They made their Silver. Do it.
So this will determine uh what's there at ten. Yeah. Number nine. Both the Tennessee and the Luxembourg guy is available too. Yeah.
Okay, it is Maz Johnson Jr., the forward out of Michigan.
So they did take a Michigan guy. With hiring the Michigan coach. They picked that up. Yeah. Yeah.
So that means he's better than The other option at Lendenborg? Um There was a comment here from Dwayne. Whoever Bart takes, he's going to be negative about it. Let me just talk. Let me just real quick talk to David.
The odds on Kelsey are not good for you, Bart. Just real quick to Dwayne. Dwayne, I don't know what your fucking shtick is. That's not me. Negative?
You want to come at me about Bucks negative? Not to bring it up again, not to bring it up again. But how were you feeling when they were down 3-2 against the Nets? I was feeling fine. How were you feeling when they were down 0-2 against the Suns?
I had my ass out, put my reputation on the line on fucking Wisconsin Avenue. Don't come at me with negative about the fucking Milwaukee Bucks. I lit bud fired. I might not like the pick. I was there when they needed me the most.
Would you ever Come at my positivity with the Bucks. I'm not a negative guy to be a negative guy. I'm negative when things are bad. I'm positive when things are good. Thank you, Duane.
You're a realist. All right, so people want the kid from Arizona, Burris, Arizona, Burris.
Okay. is available. All right. I'm looking at the big board here. This is the Athletics Top 75.
We still have. Burris would be in tier two. He's 6'4, 20 years old. And then so they could take one of the other bigs. From Michigan.
A whole bunch of them. Otherwise Made Amment. Amen. Amen. Need a men.
Ah is looking very likely. I don't want to be the guy to pick the New Zealand guy. I just. The Bucks are always the guy to take the non American and Yeah.
Now, Marez Johnson, there's three Michigan bigs here. Marez Johnson was lower. on this just athletic board. That I'm seeing. But yeah, if you're the Bucs.
Um Yeah, I would take the guard. When you're a maintenance engineer in a beverage manufacturing plant, you keep production lines moving and quality on track because there's no room for slowdowns. With Granger's vast selection of high quality motors, sensors, belts, and hard to find parts, you can get what you need fast and all in one place.
So nothing gets in the way of getting the job done. Call 1-800GRANGER, clickranger.com, or just stop by. Granger, for the ones who get it done. We all prefer things a certain way, like groceries. If you want groceries just how you like them, you gotta try Instacart.
They have a new preference picker that lets you pick how ripe or unripe you want your bananas. Shoppers can see your preferences up front, helping guide their choices. Because when it comes to groceries, the details matter. Instacart, get groceries just how you like. I I would take the guard and I think I think Haslam needs to take the guard.
Has him. I don't know who's drafting. But if you take Amen. It's going to look too Tennessee. It's gonna look too like We're taking him because I'm from Tennessee.
But that's like his MO, is to do the dumb thing.
Well, I've got the shirt ready. If we need to support Tennessee. Our house Is that a Peyton Manning respect? Sure. Uh I got this I got this in 2004.
For two dollars.
Now Oh man, it was look. Early late 90s, early thousands? Yeah, many would have been a part of this. You was a part of this?
Well, he'd been a part he'd been made probably after the shirt. The last time I wore this shirt. Non-podcast in public, I wore it to Oneida when Tennessee played Ohio State. And I put $100 on Tennessee. And then Ohio State kicked the shit out of them.
Yeah. Something there at the blackjack table at Oneida. If you want a $10 blackjack, you got to drive all the way up to fucking Green Bay. That's not too far for me. I might go.
I love a good $10 blackjack hand. Yeah. Looked at the dock spiders. Refondile got their got their uh Calendar, think about taking the daughter for a first game. There's a Caleb Durbin Jersey giveaway night coming up on a Thursday.
It'd be fun. Maybe the first is July 9th of Thursday. That could be. I could be town. All right, drop in the comments what you guys want.
John is freaking out about Ament. Like in a bad way or a good way? How do you feel though? There's three Michigan big men. They take They hire the coach.
And he's basically telling you, I like this guy better than you two. That's what I was thinking as well. Like, are we going to get stuck with the sloppy seconds and there's nothing we can do about it? If I was those other players, though, I'd be like. What the fuck, coach?
What the fuck is this? They've traded out what? Cool. Don't Are you kidding? Hold on.
I see it in the comments. I don't know if I'm being effed with. The Bucs trade it out. No, the pick is in. But that means somebody check on Twitter.
Or do the Mavs trade out? Who are you talking about? Lindenberg and Flag doesn't work together. I could see that working together. They did not trade out.
They did not trade off. They're talking about trade right now on ESPN. They trade who's they? Who's they? We can't be working on these here.
So it's Jenny Jefferson Um I don't know the ESPN guy, I can't think of his name. Or taking buries, you think, calves locked on calves? And Trey Williams. There's Ahmed. They said amen.
I looked it up. It's amen. It's like amen. A lot of people have been saying amen. Amateur Uh but it's meant.
Amen. I hope we trade out. I hope we trade odds. Look at this. This is why the Bucks are dog shit.
They're showing their war room. Here we go. Here we go. Every one of these kids is 15.
Okay, we got the guy. We got the guy. I'll wait till I'll let you break it. Burris? Is that it?
Just say it. Yeah, Bray they're saying Brayden Burries. Burries Brayden Burries.
So again, if I said Burris the last hour, I told you I'm shooting for a B minus. Brayden Burry's Guard. Arizona. Yeah. Okay.
We got the next Rashad Vaughan. Give me your thoughts, guys. Midfield is a safe pick. Bobby says, Hell yeah.
Okay. Forrest seems to be Approving of it. His highlights are fire. His highlights are fire. Yeah.
Th the the s the eight to ten highlights I just saw. He looks great. Yeah. Yeah. We're old men.
We can't say that. Hi Dad. I'm immature. I'm a kid at heart, man. All right, let me give you a little.
Let me give you a rundown here. On Brayden. Buries Brayden, I had a whole sheet of this and I fucking enclosed it. Tim? Tim Braden Burry's is built for the modern NBA.
Well, that's good. Two fifteen six three Uh almost twenty This is the analysis from Sam. I don't know this guy's name either, whatever. But the athletic. It's hard for me to see how Burrys won't be a successful NBA player, at least in some regard.
He's a terrific two-way threat who can pressure the defense from all three levels as a scorer thanks to his jumper and footwork. Defensively, he's a hard-nosed, on-ball player. who stays engaged off the ball and makes action plays happen. with disruptive hands. I love the way he fit into what Arizona did this season, not only as the Team's primary scoring threat, but also as part of what made a great defensive.
Team. I could understand if rebuilding teams aren't wildly enthusiastic. About him, strikes me more as an elite complimentary player. Then one Who will turn him into a star? If you put him in Milwaukee without Giannis and asked him to be a primary player.
I would be less enthusiastic and probably rank him more at the end of this tier. of guards. Smaller end for a scoring guard, but is a strong frame. Not particularly explosive, but accelerates well out of his hesitations. He's well-rounded.
Good shooting, good ball handling. Um There's some good defense here. He can be a pull-up shooter, mid-range guy. Nice little floater game, solid finisher, draws fouls well, sneaky good rebounder. I think you could do.
Uh a lot worse. I think so. I like him more than Tyler Hero already. Yeah, I think you can do. A lot worse.
Dwayne says, Told you this guy is good. John says, perfect. Who did you want, John? John was bitching about Ament this whole time. I didn't know he didn't want this guy, too.
You need a top six, seven pick in this draft.
Well, then we we mean we should have trade up.
Sounds like a typical horse pick. Low floor, low ceiling. See you. The next hot day. Alex thinks we got the next Steve Nash dog.
Lockdown Kev says AJ Johnson 2.0. I'm just talking shit. And now the Warriors are on the clock. Warriors on the clock. All right.
All right. I'm gonna hop off here, Bart. All right. Imig should be joining us shortly. But Braden Burry's.
is the selection. I'm sad, no trades. I really thought that we were going to do something, but Looks like we're relying on good old horst. Uh okay, Mask Boy. Oh, John's got the mask on.
I when you say mask boy, I think you're talking about me. Peace out. All right, see you, Ben. All right, so do I need this shirt? Uh that's the big question.
Because we could they could still at 13 Take Haslam's guy. Don't you forget about that. They could still at 13. Take Jimmy Haslam's guy.
So I think we are good. Uh for now And that is the pick at ten.
So we'll see what they do here. Coming up at 13. The Warriors are on the clock.
Now, is this their pick? I believe it is there. Yeah, because they're looking at that Lindeborg guy.
Now we're going to get into the part where Okay. Like you don't know who is going. Where? Um Via like trades and stuff. All right, but the hawk.
Okay, all right. I'm just trying to figure out how they're keeping track of this. We're going uh We're going. Warriors Thunder Heat. Which is Our pick.
The athletics already come out with their draft grades. For the top ten. I got to read what they say about the Bucks here at number 10. It's pretty much just a cut and paste job from what I just read you. John Hollinger.
Likes the pick, folks. Likes the picks. Can we not fight about masks? Your wife thinks I'm hot. Can you get her eyes checked?
What is the brewer's score? They scored a Dan Cheney insurance run? Good.
I love this pick by the Bucs. Says John Hollinger. In their position, you have to just get the best player available. And Burry's was the last player left in my tier of quality guards. Before we got to the everybody else portion of the draft.
His arrival could also signal. That newly acquired Tyler Hero. Might not be a long-term guy. in Milwaukee. There's been a few like Maybe uh Maybe a Russell Westbrook when he gets traded.
When he gets traded, the Jazz ones. But there's always these guys that get traded, and you're like, oh, they're never going to play a fucking minute for that team. That feels like what Hero is here.
Now, he's going to post on Instagram a picture of him in a Bucks uniform or. You know, people are gonna whatever, but I don't um I just, I don't expect it. I don't. Expect it. I love getting shit for wearing a mask and a photo that was taking.
Take it in 2021 when they, but I think the fact that you still have it on, he thinks you're making a political statement. Why, I don't know. Guys, the mask thing is so stupid. It's your face. Uh I don't know.
All right. Uh so goal and state is selecting And they're taking Lindeborg.
So, two of the Michigan guys off the board here. We don't just, we don't do live shows for people to fight about masks. What are we doing? Hi, Brewers Up 2-0. Thank you, Patrick.
All right. Bury's the pick. If you're on the audio There is a separate podcast. Breaking down the rest of the action. Actually, I don't know if we're there yet.
I might wait on that. I'll I'll see what we do on this pick. Are we getting Amen.
Now the thing with 10. And this is um I'm going to cut out a lot of the mask stuff. This is insane. Can't believe you guys. The thing about 10 is what Hollinger said: you have to take a guy.
Like, if you have 10, you can't screw that up. And now you have two picks.
So, if there is a project to be had, now maybe in some. Haslam-esque way. Jimmy Haslam Nobody gave a shit about what he was up to. The entire time he had ownership in the Bucs. Nobody cared.
And now They trade Giannis and for the last 24 hours Now he's in charge and now he's drafting. He was the only representative. At the Art Museum. Which is basically like Will, you guys have one here? Knock the shit off in the comments, or I'm fucking banning you guys.
Just knock it off. Because I see it. It's annoying me. It's annoying the fuck out of me. It is annoying the shit out of me.
Yeah. Haslam's an easy scapegoat. Buddy, I mean, he's a part of this team. He's the owner of the team. All I'm pointing out right now is nobody gave a shit about Jimmy Haslam.
He told you there's going to be a deadline. The trade happens, and now we're all talking about Jimmy Haslam. Jimmy Haslam. has been talked about and mentioned. Thank you guys.
Bye Bucks fans. More in the last 24 hours since he has since he bought into the team. It's like all of a sudden you realized. Holy shit. The guy who sucks at running the Cleveland Browns.
Is now running our team, or at least has a very large seat at the table. I don't know how the room operates. I saw that war room like you did on TV. It looked like the Bucs had no one to fill that room, so they just had their ticket sales wrap. Come in there.
If you walk around town. And you see. Uh like a white kid. Who's 27? who's dressed in khakis and a polo.
You don't need to ask him where he works. You say You say to him, Do you work at Northwestern Mutual or are you in the Bucks ticket sales office? Because it's one of the two. That's it. That's who's running around downtown.
I just run around downtown. Nobody lives down there. They all. Run back home to Brady Street. I took my kid to no man yesterday.
Uh Nomad. No, shut up. I took my kid to Nomad and uh. We left early, not because he was bored, but because. Brady Speed Brady Street smells like garbage.
Now the garbage was Being picked up that day, but Jesus Christ. Brady Street smelled very badly. Uh yesterday for the Argentina. Game. All right, so Oklahoma's picking Oklahoma City and then the Bucs.
And then I don't really know uh After that, like I'm going to get confused who's got what pick and what's happening where and who's happening why and Why is happening how? That kind of stuff, but they'll let us know. But we pick again at 13.
So, what I was saying about Haslam is. Is part of the reason? that he wanted The 13 pick was he knew That he couldn't, you have one pick. You can't take your Tennessee guy with one pick. But if you have two picks.
If you have two picks. Uh Maybe then Maybe then you can. If you have two picks, maybe then. You can. Never got to the driving range today.
We stayed home. I did ask him if he wanted to go to Discovery World, where we have a membership. Um And we haven't gone yet.
So I bought the membership. And then we haven't. Gone. But he didn't want to go today. Instead, what we're doing is we're playing this tournament in the driveway.
I'm stalling because I don't know or care about any of these guys, but we're playing a tournament in the driveway. And I thought Paul would be here 20 minutes ago, so I'm floundering. But we do a tournament in the driveway. Where uh We spin this wheel online, and then whatever. Team, it is, I am, and in the second team, he is.
and we just play whoever scores first wins and then the the teams keep advancing Because I like playing basketball. with him, but that's a fun way for me to actually like try because if we just play basketball.
Well, I have to lose. And then he says. Are you trying your hardest? And I say, Yeah, and he goes, Are you really? And I say, No.
And he goes, well, then try your hardest. And then I block them. And then he gets mad.
So this is a way where at least I can win a little bit. And we also play with a really tiny ball. But I need Bart Lundy. To instill some skills into him. He's going to be, I don't know what week it is, but he's going to be in the Milwaukee basketball camp.
this summer. Where the Panthers players coach these kids.
So I need I need I need my guy To look at my kid and instill A good institution in him.
Okay, Mara, Adai Mara, another Michigan guy. is going to the thunder. I don't know what your guys do. This is insane. Let's join Bart Winkler's basement live stream to fight about masks in the year 2026.
The fuck are we doing? Where is mine? I'll put mine on if I can find it. I think I tucked mine away. Yeah.
I think I tucked mine. Yeah. Oh, we've made enemies. If you're just like listening, there's two guys fighting about one guy's picture is wearing a mask. You started it by not changing your profile, John.
That's where you started, John. You know I'm on team mask. It's just like wearing a hat. That's all it is, it's like we're wearing glasses. It's something you put on your face or head that doesn't matter.
I'm wearing glasses. Why? To block the sun. Doesn't work. What's it matter?
It's my face. Oh, I gotta look at it. Who gives a shit? It's twenty twenty-six. But I will, okay, I will acknowledge.
The tensions may be high. Because Giannis got traded. And we're all uh trying to deal with with that. Why does the heat still have the pick?
So, yeah, whoever gets picked is going to be wearing a heat hat. And the heater on the board. Because The NBA Does their trade stupid? And also this trade. is probably going to expand.
What ESPN should be doing. is it should say Miami. Parentheses MIL reported. Or something.
So yeah, the Bucs tell the heat who to pick. And then that gets us part of the deal. The trade, yes, Brandon doesn't go through till July 6th. It's not that that's the problem, it's how it's presented to you on TV. If there's a rumored trade, okay, now they're doing reported trade in Milwaukee.
Thank you, ESPN. But they're only doing it when it comes up. The guys shouldn't get a heat hat. They should just give an NBA hat. Just give him an NBA hat.
Because then Kobe doesn't have to wear the Charlotte Hornets hat. And Derek doesn't have to wear the Bucs hat. Because then you think, oh, the Bucs they traded Dirk. No, they didn't. They traded the pick.
And then he was selected. That's what happened. There's two minutes on the clock. for the Miami Heat. And then we'll know who the bucks.
have taken with the Second pick. Yeah, like Rob Lowe wearing the NFL hat. I mean, otherwise, it just looks so stupid. And still, some of these picks that. Went down.
I haven't looked at any of the. any Twitter or anything. I don't know if anybody is reporting trades or what's going on or What's happening here? Um Let's see what my boy Sean says. Oh, he's just being a douche.
I have a feeling new Dallas Mavericks coach Dusty May will be bringing a Wolverine up here at Buckingham Ba. Who do I want to take? I don't know. Paul Imig, who do you want them to take here at 13? I actually was going to wait to join you until I got to actually.
See what it was, but I'm guessing you were drowning without me.
Well, that's what I said. I did say that. Oh, did you really? But then I realized, oh, he's not going to join until after 13. Yeah, I cut you a break, but it's only because the national coverage went to commercial right before pick 13.
So. Also, Jake Fisher is spoiling every pick.
So while I was avoiding that one through 12. I'm now very much going to use that information to my advantage. when it comes across. But the one thing I'm well, the thing I'm not good at with a lot of draft pick stuff is I read more than I hear.
Some of the names.
So is it Nate Ament Ament? I'm guessing you're the wrong guy to ask. Disclaimer at the beginning of the show. I said I'm going to try to be 80% on the pronunciations. I've been calling Burry's the wrong name all night.
I've been calling him Burris. Burris, okay? That's what I knew. Uh They said on the broadcast. Ah meant.
Ahment. But I read today it's it's like amen with a T. Amen. Amen. So amen.
Nate Ament. I don't know that he's the pick, by the way, yet. Jake Fisher. If he is, I have my Tennessee shirt ready.
Okay. Is that football? Is that specifically? Yeah, specifically football? Yeah, it's the stadium on the back.
You ever do a bad batch of laundry and then your whole smell house smells like fucking mold for two weeks? That's what happened. It is, in fact, Nate Ament at pick 13. I shouldn't say it's over.
So they are taking. Amen. The guy people didn't want at 10. And I was just floating the theory: Haslam traded for 13 because he wants a mint. Oh, sure.
But they have to take someone else. Yep. But I also think This guy at 13. is going to be more digestible. For sure.
Than this guy at 10. I agree. Paul Immix here.
So, what I'm doing now. is on the audio podcast. You know the picks. We've discussed Giannis. We've discussed the future.
You know the picks? This is part one of our draft coverage. Part two, and thanks to Cohn for stopping by and Ben for stopping by. Part 2. will be More breakdown and reaction.
