Sam Amick

Puts a lot of power in the Clippers' hands.

He's even got an interesting thing where his opt-in date is late June, but then the Clippers could turn around by July 11 and cut him loose.

It's just bottom line, I think a guy like James, it's...

Not much love down the road, seemingly, in terms of contract.

And then also not much power in his hands.

So he, with all that in mind, and who knows, as an aside, guys, I don't have clarity on this.

I do wonder, like, from a human standpoint, how does he view...

just all of the drama with the Clippers this year.

The investigation into Kawhi, the Chris Paul drama.

It's been a crazy year, and now James is trying to head elsewhere.

To your Cleveland question, I do think ultimately that could be the spot, but we're going to have to wait and see what happens there.

Let me kill Slack since that keeps making noise.

The Cavs appear reluctant.

I mean, listen, you know, Darius is say what you will about James playing at a really high level this year.

He's been a better player than Darius this year.

But it's you know, it's what's James now?

Thirty thirty six.

Yeah.

It's a decade.

It's thirty six to twenty six between the two guys.
