Sorry, Fanny Flight. Anyways, Cooper Flag was nursing Ank Lagery. We didn't know if he was gonna play in today's game until probably about Thursday yesterday week was confirmed and apparently didn't really need him because he played I don't think to two minutes, had fourteen seven rebounds for SIS, but again they won by forty four and even still, the expectation is whether he's fully healthy or not. Duke is going to go deep in this tournament, and Cooper Flag is going to continue to be the marquee player on the marquee team in college basketball. In fact, earlier this week, Jay Williams went on First Take with friend of the show Steve A.

We go way back, We go way back with Steve, and Jay Williams was asked what he thinks would be the best storyline for this tournament, and of course he says Duke winning the national championship because it's Ducal lump. But that wasn't the reason why. His reason had more to do with Cooper Flagg himself.

I don't even know why you would even.

Approach it as he's saying, because Cooper Flag is white, and then that would be the reason why he would be the face of the NBA. Is that what he was trying to say without saying it?

These stories in scenarios, Jerry Cooney, He's gonna the by heavyweight fighter. I've just heard this over and over and over.

Yeah, you know about Larry Bird.

And if you watch the games back then, and I did, it was I mean, it was all about Larry Bird. He make a bounce pass and they would act like no one had ever had a No, it was really bad. And the other thing too, is you had two wide announcers doing the game and they were both from Boston, Dick Stockton and Tommy Heinzen. So it was really bad. I'm being honest with you, Like how bad it was. I just think you can have this set up and put him behind American flag and all this other stuff, it still takes. You gotta be able to play. You got you gotta be able to play at that level. Otherwise that stuff you just doesn't.

Do, you know what I mean? Like, no, I just kidnap.

Do, you know what I mean? Like, no, I just kidnap.

You could, Yeah, I just I think that sounds Oh yeah, Well if he wins and if he does this and he dropped it, he on the league, he had thirty five points and he does that and they win a championship, then he been standing behind America. If I had really okay, like like there's a lot of stuff that has to go down, he could be a really good player.

You could, Yeah, I just I think that sounds Oh yeah, Well if he wins and if he does this and he dropped it, he on the league, he had thirty five points and he does that and they win a championship, then he been standing behind America.

Right, Christian Lady was one of the great he is.

College basketball players I saw okay without without adult. If you were to kareem, you could pick like three people, and Christian Latner would be in that. Right, everybody who knows college basketball, Christian Laytner.

Wouldn't there have been great if Mike Trout had a personality in baseball. He's good looking, he's big, he's strong, he's a great player. He didn't have it. He didn't have it, did he? And was never really uh, the face of baseball, not really. He was a talented player. People were like, oh, that's what a great player to look at, but he never he never got that because he didn't have the all the other elements. And now you got a player from Japan who's doing stuff we've never seen before.

So I think there's too much there.

So I think there's too much there.

Yeah, So I think I think America is always clamoring for the next great white hope in things, you pick the thing, whether it be Maclamore in hip hop, can't you drop one of the greatest rap albums of all time, Good Kid, Mad City and Maclamore, which is no shade on him as far as an artist. He put together a good album, had a few good singles, but there's no way he wins Grammy for Best Rap Album. But that happens, right you go to certain other elements of society, they're always looking for that. That's just an American thing. And if you are in denial, not you rob. If someone's in denial about the role in which race plays in any and everything in America, then you're in gross denial. That is embedded in the fabric of our society. Now, with that being said, is there maybe an advantage to an anomaly, right, the NBA is I don't know.

The exact number.

The exact number.

We're gonna say, sixty five is probably percent black, maybe sixty five seventy at one point we know. So there's always an anomaly, right, Usually the best players, the majority of them, are gonna be black players, just based off the numbers. So when you get an anomaly in things, that becomes it becomes more popular. So Cooper Flag becomes in and he's really good and he's white. That only helps to the allure to the popularity Allah Larry Bird, as you mentioned, because Larry Bird, if you talk to any brother from the eighties, they will all give you the same story. Man, I always heard about him. I said, let me play. He ain't never played. Nobody like me. He ain't never played. And then they playing and say, man, and I'm just saying what they said, that white boy can play. All of them said that because Larry was actually the best player in the.

League for he was exactly players.

So that's the one people say to Larry Bird.

So that's the one people say to Larry Bird.

I want to make sure they add that Larry Bird was actually the best player in the league for a handful of years.

So you can't just be good. You can't just be really good.

Cooper Flagg has to come in, have some swag, some sauce, and be really good, and I mean it'd be very good and be one of, if not the best players in the league for a chance, because it ain't easy.

As we mentioned, Jason Tatum's one of the best players is the kurb Randy Champ. He ain't it, you know, Tim Duncan was a five time Champ, two time MVP, so on and so forth.

He wasn't it per se.

He wasn't it per se.

So Cooper flag has an opportunity because he's really good in college. He'll be the first pick, would have been the first pick last year even out of high school if they didn't have the one and done. And he has an opportunity, but he's gotta be very good, one of the best, if not the best, and he's gotta be has to still have something about him, something else. But I do believe in my final point is America will be clamoring. They are always clamoring for the next great white hope. That's just the way the society is in my opinion. And so he has that opportunity, but he has to live up to it and that means being great.

Like kelvin Washington, where everything is great, you're gonna say man. Bronnie James played a career high thirty minutes last night. Scored a career high seventeen points, seven to ten shooting. He had five assists, three rebounds, and a block as well. In the process, became the youngest Laker rookie since Magic Johnson to record seventeen points in five insists while shooting at least seventy percent from the floor.

It's incredible performance.

It's incredible performance.

There's a lot of factors by the fifty fifth pick in the NBA draft, but if you're Rob Parker, you can also point out that Bronnie James only got in the game because the Lakers basically sat their entire top seven in the rotation, that they ended up losing that game by twenty nine points of the Milwaukee Bucks, and that Bronnie James in thirty minutes of action was not quite a team worse, but almos a team worse minus thirty six while he was on the floor for plus minus. Rob Parker, your thoughts on the Bronnie James performance and the conversation to come out of last night.

I'm trying to really put my thoughts together, because once again people have overreact. Who in the world trumpets a seventeen point performance in a twenty nine point loss where the game was never really in doubt with all the injuries and whatnot.

I'm trying to really put my thoughts together, because once again people have overreact. Who in the world trumpets a seventeen point performance in a twenty nine point loss where the game was never really in doubt with all the injuries and whatnot.

Seriously, I mean, really that's the game.

I remember when he was in Philadelphia and they gave him some extended minutes and he looked like a fish out of water.

You wanted everybody to leave malone so that the kid could develop and just play.

Oh, today was good because it was positive. Oh yeah, did you see my boy? Did you see the kid? You see what he was able to do.

There's a difference.

All of Brownie's points, all of his stats garbage time.

That wasn't a real game. That was not a real game.

If he did that in Philadelphia when they earlier this year, when they put him in extended minutes, you'd get my attention.

I don't value this at all. I don't.

I don't value this at all. I don't.

There's a difference between games meaningful. That's what his stat called garbage minutes. Why do we come up with that, Calvin? Any points are good. You play basketball, right, No, we know there's garbage time.

In baseball. We call it the mop up, right when the.

In baseball. We call it the mop up, right when the.

Game's out of hand and you put people in Oh yeah, yeah, mop up, dude. He pitched four innings a mop up. That means there was a mess there there was nothing there, there was no game. I'm sorry people going crazy and wigging out over Brownie. I just I didn't see any value in it other than the kid got to play because there was nobody else to play and the game was never in doubt.

Any played. That's it. That's it. That's all I took from him.

Any played. That's it. That's it. That's all I took from him.

This is where you're in my opinion, I don't think you're missing it. It's not that people are like old Brownie has seventeen he's the greatest player of all time. What they're seeing is confidence. What they're seeing is development. What they're seeing is him get to his spots. What they're seeing is the shooting shots that he didn't want to shoot in Philadelphia, he didn't want to shoot in other times. He is starting to develop, and that's all you can ask for from any rookie young player is development. And there should not be people reading into it too much as if all of a sudden he is a first top, you know, first tier rookie in the league and he needs to be Rookie of.

Look at Bronnie out here getting the spots.

Look at Bronnie out here getting the spots.

Look at Brownie, ooh nice left hand labeled little body on a little and one okay, And that's what I think you saw. So it's because guess what could happen tomorrow if they if he played, he could have six points and he goes, you know, three for twelve, like that's a very much a possibility. He did not turn the corner. He's not all of a sudden a top two three rookie in the in the league right now.

But what people saw and.

But what people saw and.

We're making and we're excited about, was to see grow sea development, see confidence and again seeing it from somebody that they've seen his entire life. And I've always said this to you about this conversation. I think more people are either like him or indifferent than they are a dislike him. Absolutely, there are people who dislike him or you know, just tired of the whole James family what out of doubt, But I think more people are either just oh, yeah, all right, Ronnie whatever, or they're like, oh, go ahead, Ronnie, I see a young man. So I think people are just happy to see somebody that seems to have been a good kid, someone who seems to be that.

I'm so tired of hearing that there's a there's a ton of good kids who can't play.

Stop with that he's a good kid. There's a ton there's a lot of guys who led.

And nobody said to be a limit.

Nobody said kid, as if that means that you should be on the basketball team if you're a good kid. Do you know how many kids with good kids who got caught because they couldn't play.

Nobody said kid, as if that means that you should be on the basketball team if you're a good kid. Do you know how many kids with good kids who got caught because they couldn't play.

Wait wait, so it is a conversation. Now you're saying he shouldn't be in the court.

Wait wait, so it is a conversation. Now you're saying he shouldn't be in the court.

What are you saying, because yeah, because I don't think he should be with the Lakers. No, I don't, I really don't. I think he should be with the South Bay whatever they are, the South Bay Lakers. I told you I would have loved for him to just spent the year. Last night with all the points, he was minus forty six plus minus. That's not meaningful basketball when he probably it wasn't doing anything.

That might be the worst starting lineup. Well, I don't know.

That might be the worst starting lineup. Well, I don't know.

The Wizard probably put something I was worse, and Bronny coming off the bench giving you thirty minutes. My point is, did you think he was gonna be plus thirty six against literally Giannis and the Bucks. No, So people went into that game literally just won. It was almost like a G League experience. Let me watch him hoop and see what he does. Nobody thought they were gonna win without their best players, multiple players.

And if you're saying he again, I hope nobody's saying he turned the corner. What we're saying is, oh, he had a good night, because again the next game he might only have five, six, three points. That's a part of this process. This is why I and I think you were with me. I said, I would have loved him just say go down there, continue to thrive in a G league, get your bumps and bruises in the G league. But you know, bron And and Lakers didn't want to do that. So it was a lot of people were happy to see him have success one night. Nobody's rewriting history and saying, all of a sudden, he's a top five rookie ever in history. They're saying, that was a fun good night for a for a young kid who they've seen his whole life.

I think you're missing this is because it's because they are saying, oh, let's see if he's been growing, if it's confidence, and that's what you want to see in anybody. A pitcher in baseball, a guard in the NBA, a defensive back in the NFL. Are you growing? Are you developing? Are we starting to see you get confidence and.

The way this is working out here you recalled last week, we talked about it on the show. T Higgins and Jamar Chase secured the band from Cincinnati right Jamar Chase became the high paid non quarterback in for history, and reportedly t Higgins became the highest paid number two receiver in the NFL.

It was reported at the time that he got.

A four year, one hundred and fifteen million dollar deal and the first two years were guaranteed. Only problem is when the terms of the deal were released and members of the media, who are good at this kind of thing, were able to dive into it and figure out the nuts and bolts of it all Pro Football talks, Mike Florio figured out that that deal is not four years one to fifteen as we knew. It's not even four years fifty five. He didn't even get a Sam Darnold deal. The way this contract works actually is basically a one year deal for t Higgins. He's going to get realistically right around thirty six million dollars in twenty twenty five, with signing bonuses, roster bonus, so on, and so forth. However, the Cincinnati Bengals, if they wanted to, could cut bait with him after the season and not have any more guaranteed money after twenty twenty five, all of which led to Micah Parsons on Friday, flexing his Twitter fingers, went online and fired a shot at T. Higgins and his representatives. Here it is quote, some of these agents don't have the best interest for y'all.

Man, wake up. David Mulugeta, who was Higgins's.

Man, wake up. David Mulugeta, who was Higgins's.

Former agent and MICA's current age remember he fired him so that he get at the same agent as the mar Chase. Mulageta has been showing it time and time again. It's sad seeing some of these players get violated by teams because of lack of decency and effort by their agents.

Calvin, you're always ripping on him because he was the one who told the Cowboys publicly won that he didn't need to break the bank or.

Set them off exactly. Yep.

Set them off exactly. Yep.

Always bring that up because again, if I'm an agent, hey bro, relax, I don't need you put I'm an agent for a reason, you trust me for a reason. Don't be going out here publicly talking about I don't need to break the bank. I don't want all the money, which in turn is the irony of it is because if T. Higgins didn't necessarily break the bank here, maybe he needed to work this out, because if you know. Even further, the new agent that he has, he being T. Higgins, is the same agent as Jamar Chase, and so a lot of the reporting was that they got these deals done jointly, as if attack team.

So that's how this worked out in tandem.

So that's how this worked out in tandem.

So maybe he wanted to not necessarily break the bank so that he can still be with Jamar Chase, so he can still be with Joe Burrow and still be with the Bengals, where I'm sure they feel like, hey, well we're all healthy in Roland. We are one of the better offenses in the league. My issue with this with Rob is I'm gonna actually say, maybe my had his tea against best interest at hand. Maybe he had his best interest at heart saying hey, you know, you could have gotten more, Hey you could have you know, took some more money from the Bengals. My issue is, how often are you gonna keep being in everybody's business?

Do you take a week off last week you're in DeMarcus Lawrence's business, right, you gotta know who A whole new team across the country up in the Northwest with the Seahawks. Hey, I love Dallas. Dallas is my home. It's where I want to you know, my family's still there, but I'm moving on. And you know I probably wouldn't go win the Super Bowl there anyway. You jump in, Oh, that's clown activity and done jumping in with that. You jump into every topic, Dak Prescott, don't even name it in the top ten. You jump in with your own contract stuff. You jump in with Mike McCarthy. I don't really care. You know, he's a coach, yea if he's here or now, you know, it's about the players. I saw the careboard, which he may have felt that way. It's a lesson I want young people to learn moving forward in their lives. Ninety nine percent of y'all won't be in the NFL. Just because you can doesn't mean you should. Just because you can doesn't mean you have to. And I said that to say, just because he can get his Twitter fingers going, just because he can crack open the mic on his podcast, just because he will have someone ask him a question on their podcast. He doesn't have to speak on everybody's business. He just doesn't have to. And I can imagine it's gonna go tiring. DeMarcus Lawrence was kind of the older guard and for the Cowboys, you know, locker room defensively and you know there's issue with them. I would imagine it's kind of more of the this is how we've done things, MICA's Moore, Now, this is how we're about.

And I have athletes who are their favorite shoes, right and we're talking about this, and rappers and entertainers movie started their favorite shoes. It's that he's having all these conversations about the same sporty plays with the players that are on his team, or it's players that were the former team, or his current coach and Mike McCarthy at the time when he did it, or his current quarterback in Dak Prescott not naming him, and these are small little things that could potentially come that last straw that broke a camel back. And if I was one of his mentors, I was saying. I'm not saying you can't have an opinion and shut up and play football. I'm not saying that, but you don't have to put your name on everything. You don't have to speak on everything. And that would be my biggest thing with him.
