What are the latest updates on Giannis Antetokounmpo's trade rumors?
He's doing it again, Dan. Who is? Jeremy. He's doing it again. It won't stop.
Oh, my God. You're talking about how he won't shut up about how the Giannis stuff is all bigger than the Super Bowl?
Yes. Yes. Yes. This is like three days in a row now, and I get it. Like, the Super Bowl, okay, it's over a week away. I understand. And for that matter, the NBA trade deadline's a little less than a week away. But he's doing it again. He's trying to convince everybody. He literally just said, talking about Giannis, this is the biggest story in sports. And then he adds the caveat, you know, it was the Super Bowl too, but, you know, like he's doing it again. In his defense, though, obviously the Super Bowl is still a week away. We've got next week to really gear up and get ready and get real excited about the Super Bowl. But right now, stands to reason, Giannis is the biggest story in sports on today's Friday day.
Very obviously the biggest story in sports today. Today. I'm just happy everybody showed up for work. I was going to be here no matter what.
The trade deadline, though, is, as Zaz just mentioned, it's also a week away.
Six days away.
And, you know, there are a number of big stories in sports. We're not covering Denny Hamlin correctly. And also Djokovic right now is brawling with Sinner like this is this. If you like tennis right now, it's rare for sporting events to be happening while we're on the show. But Djokovic as an athlete has more. titles, more majors than anybody. And when I say that, that's a staggering thing to say given that he played against two other Djokovic's during his time. Like Serena doesn't have as many majors as Djokovic and Serena was not playing against two other Serena's at the same time. What Djokovic is doing right now, do you think Mike, do you think as we watch this, the fifth set of Djokovic and Sinner, do you think that Djokovic knows like we know right now
that sinners better than him.
Good job on the name. Almost stumbled, but you got through.
I don't think that's good for my inner monologue. You got to understand the voice. You got to understand it. I didn't understand what you were saying.
We'll work on it. Workshopping sounds. So just so I can get this right, we're deciding yesterday that 20 minutes of High Lucas talk is more interesting than Giannis and that today old Novak Djokovic and quote, we're not covering Denny Hamlin correctly is more interesting than the Giannis stuff. That's our barometer here.
Djokovic has done a lot more winning than Giannis. But fair enough. Fair point by you. Look at Djokovic right there. Look at that shot. Do you think that Djokovic knows center is better than him? I think so. You think so?
Yeah.
So then why wouldn't he think he's going to lose here?
How's this one?
That, well, I didn't hear what you said.
It's gotta be different, man.
That's more menacing.
Like, what do you want from me?
But I did not understand my inner monologue. Everyone else did.
It's gotta sound different. It's confusing if it's my normal voice.
Right, but I still don't know what you said as my inner monologue, and it's gonna be hard to do the show if I don't understand my own inner monologue. How's this one? I understand that you want to make it weak, but you made it sound like... I think weak is the way to go. That, I understood.
All right, so I don't whisper. You guys, I got enough voices in my head. This one's tough. This is the Dan Levitar Show with the Stugatz Podcast.
By the way, I'm not a big hockey guy, obviously.
How is Djokovic's performance impacting the sports conversation?
I just found out that the Mammoths were a team. It's just Mammoth. Okay, so the Mammoth are a team. Hockey is Backjack is a banger. That one's better than all the other Backjack songs we have, and it's great. I agree.
Is Hockey Backjack, or is the season over, Stover? Like, is it back?
It's over, Rover. We move on.
I was really upset last night, Dan. For the first time this season, Mike, you could say what I put in the hockey chat last night. I think I wrote, Panthers are effing terrible. And I don't ever speak like that. Thank you for allowing us to share that.
