What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
I'm even more handsome in FM. That's what I found.
I don't think it works like that.
Yes, yeah, yeah. I think it does. You run faster and jump higher is what I was told.
Yeah, I think that's what it does, Marshall. You can take your fancy radio acumen and your television history and your manicured jawline and say that that's not how it works. But for those of us over here, I'm much more handsome on the FM.
That was Danny Parkins. We thank him and Kendall Gill for joining our show. We have some breaking news. Sham Sharania, we asked the question at noon, did we see Kobe White's last game as a Bull? We did. The Bulls are trading Kobe White and Mike Conley Jr. to the Charlotte Hornets for Colin Sexton, Usman Jang, and three second-round picks. The reply underneath was hilarious because it was like Jang finding out that he got traded as a member of the Hornets while being an active member of the Thunder. Funny joke, but Kobe White to the Hornets.
and uh so kobe gets to go home yeah that he is from north carolina so kobe white is the number one scorer the number one scorer in the history of north carolina high school basketball number one so yeah he gets to go home that's pretty cool and uzman jang by the way i had to google 22 year old frenchman they love themselves some frenchman well he was part of that uh the 22 draft 11th overall pick by the Knicks in 2022.
Did you finish all of your Mike Connolly draft pick stuff? Do you want to get all that material out?
I'm so glad.
Because it was Joe Keem's draft, wasn't it?
I'm so glad I used a lot of it, Lawrence, yesterday. You're right. What was your favorite moment of the Mike Connolly era?
It was where we brought up Zeebo as part of the Grizzlies.
Mike Conley's draft was Joakim Noah. Aaron Aflalo was in Mike Conley's draft. I haven't thought about that man in a long-ass time. So yeah, Thaddeus Young, part of Mike Conley's draft.
What breaking news about Kobe White's trade is revealed?
That was my favorite part of the Mike Conley era. Thaddeus.
He's a fuller bull. I know.
We got to bring up Thaddeus Young yesterday.
Let's have fun naming guys. That's what we do around here sometimes.
Name guys is true. So that trade coming through via Sham Sharania.
How does the trade impact the Chicago Bulls' future?
Thanks to Ray Diaz, Tyler Bearderbaugh, Brandon Fryer. Thanks to Connor O'Donnell, Jacob Stutz, Max Curtis, and Cody Westerlund. And those are the voices of Lawrence Holmes and Matt Spiegel. Hi, guys.
What's interesting about this, fellas, is that Guard out, guard in. Colin Sexton, is he going to get moved now, turned around quickly? That's a dude who shoots 39% from three and who's really had a kind of strong resurgence to his career being a rotation piece. And the Hornets, by the way, will soon be in the 10 spot, which means the Bulls will be in the 11 spot because the Hornets have already won seven games in a row and they're about to pass the Bulls and get into the play-in. And that opens conversations about tanking because the last time I checked, they still have a very undersized basketball club. Yeah, it's interesting.
What are the implications of Colin Sexton joining the Bulls?
The Bulls and what's going on with them is something we'll figure out. But Colin Sexton and the Hornets, they're building a little something. I don't know if anybody saw the Cooper-Flagg-Kahn-Knipple game last week. It was beautiful. Dude, Cooper Flagg had 49 and missed the game winner at the buzzer. And his college roommate and teammate, Con Knipple, I think hit eight threes and was brilliant.
And Jason Kidd's tired of you asking about it, quite frankly. Amazing. Yes, he really is.
And he's right. But Charlotte is building a little something with LaMelo and Knipple, and it was with Sexton.
What historical context is provided about Kobe White's career?
It's more than a little something. Seven straight, and Conn Knipple's been the best rookie not named Cooper Flagg this season. He will have an argument for that rookie of the year.
Don't you remember there was a hot week where people were like, I'm going to tell you why Conn Knipple should be the first overall pick instead of Cooper Flagg. It was like a week.
But it was a week. I didn't realize he was going to be this. I'll say it flat out. That's number two in the Rookie of the Year voting, and ought to be anyway.
