Transcript

00:00lead this morning is dame lillard uh is reported can i jump frog on this oh okay go ahead okay so

00:06and i have the same lead well we have the same topic of leads okay it's reported that the celtics

00:11the warriors and the uh lakers are all interested in dame um i don't and i wonder what your feelings

00:18on this i don't know why the celtics would do this it's 112.6 million dollars to take a 34 year old

00:25who's coming off an achilles injury during a time where the celtics are trying to unload money

00:30that's what everybody's been trying to tell me 112.6 million dollars for this is my my lead

00:36my lead to no okay it's not 112 million the milwaukee bucks will pick up his contract oh yes

00:42the milwaukee he's paid for milwaukee the 20 i forget what he's supposed to be making for milwaukee i

00:47think it's like 22 or 23 million you could get him for basically the veteran veteran exception

00:55minimum which is like 15 million that you would have to pay him and then they're on the hook for

01:00the 22 and then they're on the hook for the 22 so i love it because you would be able to get him

01:06for like 15 million a year he would then get or 17 million he would then get his 22 million

01:12for the milwaukee bucks who owe him like four or five years um but so why would milwaukee do this

01:18because they waived them they got rid of them so they didn't you don't have to trade for them they

01:22basically the milwaukee bucks have waived dame lillard but he still had five years right you

01:27have to pay him out 112.6 million dollars not even playing no they pay him that that's what i'm saying

01:33yes milwaukee pays him that and then the celtics give him the veteran exception which is like 17

01:39million for somebody in his age bracket so he would get 22 from milwaukee and then 17 from the celtics and

01:46you basically getting his 40 million and you would be able to only you'd only have to pay him 17 million

01:51and then what do you have to give up for that you don't have to give up anything but players you

01:55don't have to give none the milwaukee waived them they cut him i know free agent i i i understand but

02:00i'm saying space wise on this team where are you putting him well i mean you could put him anywhere

02:05like you would just it would be no different than adding a player to the current roster but i don't

02:10my my lead was going to be because i don't like it everybody's talking about the core the the core four

02:17and so you end up having tatum and jalen brown and you've got derek white and you add dane willard

02:25i don't mind if it doesn't if they're going to spend money then i don't mind adding him i don't

02:29care how he's 34 years old like what's the what's the risk no there's no risk the only risk you have

02:35is that you're better but you're not good enough to win a title so this year you're a three seed and

02:40you're not improving your roster well he won't be able to play this year anyway you would get him next

02:44year when tatum came back and you still have the ability to get a max guy so you'd have jalen brown

02:51tatum a max guy derrick white and then dame lillard would basically be like

02:56the pj brown of the celtics when they won 07
