Yesterday in 2018 Rajon Rondo allegedly spit on Chris Paul and things obviously escalated from there.

Per, Can you believe this was two years ago already?

E can't believe it, but I could believe that it happened.

Thes guys been beefing their whole career.

They both wanted to smoke.

It would look.

It's been cloudy outside.

George.

We were just waiting on the thunderstorm.

Hey, people were actually on LeBron for paying too much attention to Chris Paul instead of his own teammate.

Now he and Rondo have rings.

I know it's wild, and he was one of the guys he embraced first.

Actually, when he won that ring and the longest embraced there were judging those things.

Not that we should be.

But anyway, let's move on.

Duncan Robinson, speaking of the Lakers, and that Siri's revealed on the tightest and take podcast that the Lakers bench was yelling Jimmy Neutron at him.

Park, Do you think that d Rob looks like Jimmy Neutron?

I could see it.

I think the Lakers were on to something.

Yeah, Yes, he dio uh huh e as in the first.

Is this even an insult?

I mean, being compared to like a cartoon hero.

I'd like to be compared to Jimmy Neutron.

I love it.

I do think he looks like Jimmy Neutron a little bit.

I think he should roll with that.

I think that should be his new nickname.

Duncan Neutron Robinson.

Just roll with it.

Perk for close it.

Let's stick with the heat here, Brian.

This team obviously came really close to winning at all this past season.

The we're within two games.

So what do you think they need to get over the hump is we look at this upcoming season?

Well, I think what they would say, George, if Erik Spoelstra is here, they need health.

They would gladly take the finals over tomorrow with a healthy Goran Dragic's and Bam at a bio.

They don't really think they need anything.

Now, look, they have grand plans to chase guys like Johan Santana coupon free agency, and so I have to acknowledge that.

But in the short run, I think they could maybe do better with A with a Mawr athletic starting small forward now.

I don't want to disparage Duncan after we've just called him Jimmy Neutron.

Um, but he's a bit more of a specialist.

He may prove me wrong.

He may develop, but he was attacked often on defense and that he'd had to go zone because they teams were attacking Duncan Robinson.

They may do better if he was more of a specialist off the bench.

Long term.

But we'll see Perk you used to call them or you call them during this run.

The quote goons from the 305 So what are the goons from the 305 needs.

They don't need anything.

I strongly believe that the Miami Heat could run it back.

When you look at this team, we finally could put the super in front of the star when we talk about Jimmy Butler.

What he did in the MBA Finals was phenomenal.

We looking at bam out of the bayou.

I said that he's a top three big in this league and I'm a stand by that He was injured in the finals and he wasn't 100%.

So we didn't see the best band, but he was still productive.

And then you look at Tyler hero.

This kid is a study in the maker.

I believe that he will make the All Star team next year.

So I'm looking at this Heat roster.

Disguise the limit going.

Dragic went out during the finals, the guy who was playing phenomenal throughout the playoffs, averaging close to 21 points a game.

50% from the field, 40 from the three.

I'm not changing anything.

If I'm the Miami Heat, I think they're just fine.

Where they They got the best coach in today's game and exposure and they're gonna be perfectly fine.

And I strongly believe that the Heat could run it back and make it to the finals again.

Nick sees the East is going to be really fun.

The top of that East is gonna be really, really competitive.

So much stuff, certainly there, and so many teams that are gonna be in the mix, including the Miami Heat as long as they're healthy.

So look at the top of the show.

We gave you the breaking news that the pelicans hired Stan Van Gundy to be their next head coach.

Before we go perk.

Did they get the higher right?

Uh, look, I love Stan Van Gundy, but, you know, I gotta shoot it straight from the hip.

And no, I don't believe that they got the high right.

I'm a standby.

I thought they should have hired a guy like Jason Kidd of Mark Jackson.

And that's just my opinion.

I strongly believe that they didn't make the right.

Hi.

So, you know, George, this was such such a difficult, higher to make.

And I think that's what you have to realize.

You have to look at the hand that David Griffin was holding, and you have to realize that the level of coaches out there, you know, there just wasn't a lot that fit this bill.

I know Perk disagrees with me here, Um, but I think it was a hard, higher to make, and I think they hired a guy who they think is going to be successful.

Yeah, Look, I'm a fan of stand, I think, as Faras, his coaching acumen is concerned.

I think that he's one of the better coaches we have in this league, and I think that he's gonna get that chance to prove that again.

You know, it's been a long time since that Orlando team went to the finals, but not long enough where I forgot how good a coach he was.

And here's what Stan had to say about the news on Twitter.

I'm excited to join a talented New Orleans Pelicans team.

It'll be my honor to work with our players and toe work for Mrs Benson and David Griffin, Trajan Langdon and their staff in the great people of New Orleans.

I can't wait to talk to our players and get the process started Now.

It's interesting, Brian and Perk because, you know, people forget that Orlando team.

They were one of the first spread the floor teams kind of four out with Dwight Howard.

Now everybody plays five out, it seems like, but Brian, this is someone who was certainly innovative for his time.

Yeah, and that's one of the reasons why I think that this means JJ Reddick is probably not getting traded because he has such a connection.

There is one of the reasons why Reddick thrived when he played for stand in Orlando, but these teams got some big decisions to make.

They're obviously going to resign Brandon Ingram, but they have to decide whether Lonzo Ball is work, extending as their franchise uh, point guard, they have to decide what to do with Derrick.

Favors is a free agent, and we met.

We talked about Drew Holiday already.

There's a lot of heavy lifting for David Griffin and Stan Van Gundy heading forward here.

Well, this is This is how I feel about it.

I strongly believe that.

I hope, hopefully that Stan Van Gundy has had a chance to look himself in the mirror and say, I have to adjust.

We watched the great Gregg Popovich say, I have to adjust.

This is not the old days.

So hopefully, you know, with his time away from the game, he's gonna come in with a different mindset, a different attitude, and know that this is not back in the day.

This is a new generation.

These young players air different than what they were 5 10 years ago.
