Chapter 2: How does Dan Patrick feel about Cameron Boozer's energy?
Maybe you go to the high school level and talk to those kids. Gather them in the gymnasium and let them ask you questions. It might not be comfortable, but this at least shows that, okay, I'm going to rehab myself, but I also want to make sure that I tell these kids it can happen to you. And once it starts, I mean, he placed 9,000 bets. It was just, it didn't stop.
And sometimes we get caught up in, well, but he was only betting like $20. That is not what I focused on. It was the constant that he was, he needed it. He couldn't survive each day without some kind of bet on something around the world. Like if he did one big bet, okay, when you do 9,000,
obviously has a problem and i think moving forward continue to work on yourself this entire year work out uh you know i i would probably i wouldn't suggest the naia i wouldn't suggest the cfl but i would just find somebody who can help you get ready for the nfl draft next year and in the meantime
Why don't you go around college, but I would suggest high school, and just talk about how you got into this situation. I know that we say the evils of gambling. Well, it's evil if you allow it to be. And he allowed it to be. And you're betting on your team at Indiana. I don't know why he wouldn't bet on his team at Cincinnati. That doesn't make any sense.
That you bet... He didn't play at Indiana, but he was betting on Indiana. And maybe 30 or 40 bets. But then at Cincinnati, when you're playing... That's when I thought that he would be betting on himself, but I haven't heard any information about that.
But we'll talk to Mike Florio about... Knowing Brendan Sorsby's attorney, Jeffrey Kessler, he's not afraid of the NFL and probably going to sue the NFL, but I don't know how long that would take. And if I was representing Brendan Sorsby, I would say, hey... Let's just give back. Let's show a different side of me, not somebody who's going to fight. I want to stay. We're going to sue.
I got my money. I bounced around my third school. Now it's time to be a grown-up and just say, I want to talk to these kids, and I'll do that on my own. And if you want to have film crews come in, you want to sit down with John Wertheim on 60 Minutes, that's what I would suggest here. Yeah, Paul.
Yeah, like you said, he's got eight months to change the narrative, but he needs time. Because right now, he and his lawyer come off as do anything to get in the league or get on a football team. But eight months from now, his tape is his tape. The NFL's got his tape, and he may not have any more to give them.
Yeah, I think they'll be fine with it. I mean, this is a dual threat. This guy who's got athleticism, he certainly showed that at Cincinnati. But you've got to rehab yourself in the eyes of other people as well. Not only you, but you've got to do that with everybody else who has an opinion about you in the NFL. They don't need you. You need the NFL. All right, let's see.

Chapter 3: What celebrities does Dan Patrick maintain contact with?
World Cup yesterday, the big news was Ronaldo. He's back. Had a couple of goals there, which was fun. United States doesn't play until tomorrow. Yes, Dylan. Did you see the story about the Ghanaian witch doctor who cursed Harry Kane yesterday? I did not. Oh, well, this is pretty good.
So Nana Kwaku Bonsam is a Ghanaian witch doctor who placed a curse on Harry Kane not to be injured, just to limit his powers, and they ended in a 0-0 tie. Now, has he used these skills, powers, over other players? Apparently, he did in the 2014 World Cup against Ronaldo, who then suffered a knee injury, which I don't think that's right, but two for two.
Well, he kind of picks his spots there, 12 years after what he did in 2014, and now he does it. So he's really specific when he decides to do this. Yes, Todd?
Yeah.
I'm not going to be judgmental, but come on, don't be doing that. That's not cool. If something terrible would have happened to him.
I'm going to be judgmental. Don't do that again, Todd. Yes, Paulie. Dan, I googled Dr. Bonsam, and I cannot find a medical school that he attended that said it might be on me.
He said, I'm working on Harry Kane. I'm not wishing him serious injury. I just want him to stop against my country playing well.
That's it. Tripp in Vegas. Hi, Tripp. Welcome back. Hey, good morning, Dan. Always good to speak with y'all. Don't be upset about Dylan's attire. If he was an Aerosmith guy, he wouldn't dress like that. But I have a question for Todd. Is he happy or jealous that he's possibly losing his least valuable Danette award to Dylan? And even though the award is maybe a negative award, it's still winning.
And Todd likes to win. So I was just curious about that. All right, well, thank you, Tripp. No, no, Todd still is, you know, I think he's got a dynasty going on here as the least valuable Danette. Yes, Dan, Todd.

Chapter 4: What are the implications of the NBA Draft on team strategies?
Honeymoon, and then it's over. And now, all of a sudden, Dylan in the honeymoon stage. I think it's evaporating. All right, we'll take a break. We'll talk to Tim McMahon. He covers the NBA for the Mothership. He'll join us coming up. More on the Brendan Sorsby situation. Mike Florio, Seth Greenberg on loan from the Mothership.

Chapter 5: How does age affect NBA draft picks?
Why do I watch the World Cup? That's like asking me, why do I breathe?
I inherited that fandom from my mom.
I like watching it with my dad.
It's a connecting force. From Futuro Studios, I'm Fernanda Echavarri, and this is American Football, a show about soccer culture in the U.S. and its underdog roots. We go beyond the game to the people and the stories that make it great.
A soccer game is a festival. It's not just a game. It's your culture.
I took an elbow to my head, which cracked my skull. It is an American game. The Brazilians don't like hearing that, though.
Are they the only ones that don't like soccer?
Nobody likes that.
As we get ready for the Men's World Cup this summer, listen to American Football as part of the My Cultura podcast network, available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, I'm Hoda Kotb, host of the podcast Joy 101 with Hoda Kotb.

Chapter 6: What was the reaction to the Golden State Warriors' draft choice?
And together with iHeartRadio, we're going to make the ordinary extraordinary. Stay close.
Eres un caraco. Wow.
Listen to Learning to be Human on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
He is Tim McMahon, ESPN NBA reporter, and his podcast, Banned McMahon, on the Hoop Collective. And, of course, he wrote the book on Luka Doncic, The Wonder Boy, The Curse of Greatness. As we welcome back Tim McMahon. Howdy, Tim. Howdy, Dan. How are you? I'm good. I'm good. Do you have your grades ready? We always have to have a grade for the NBA draft. And so you're kind of the teacher here.
Can you grade something like strategy over just the talent that somebody has? Well, Dan, I'll be real honest with you. I don't know if that's a new process. It took me eight years to get a degree in college. I'm not a professor. I don't hand out grade. And I'll be real with you. I don't watch a lot of college basketball. I'm either at an NBA game or watching League Pass every night.
So I learn about these guys. We have experts, obviously, at ESPN. There's other draft gurus. I read that stuff. I talk to people around the league. So I'm more of a, I grade the process because on the talent, I'm mainly going off the other people's opinions, not my own. And, you know, I also, I just think it's hilarious. It's like, do you get your grade?
when you get your syllabus when you walk into a classroom? Because class just started for these guys. How are you going to grade something that hasn't happened yet? Is it just a coincidence that there are certain teams that just aren't good at this? Like whenever the Wizards do something, I go, oh, this is going to go bad.
But if the Miami Heat do something, then I go, oh, they must know something that I don't know. Well, and I think you're judging the Wizards on history. This is obviously still a relatively new front office that's gone through a rebuild. And, you know, so in that sense, I think that this Wizards front office deserves some benefit of the doubt, whereas...
The Heat, that's a front office that has been together for a long, long time, that has, you know, lifted championship trophies and raised banners. It's had a lot of success, not just in the draft, but in pulling off things like position themselves to acquire Giannis, as they did with LeBron, as they did with Alonzo Mourning and Jimmy Butler, Chris Bosh, and on down the list.

Chapter 7: What does Dan Patrick think about the trade rumors surrounding Jalen Brown?
We will see if he's on the Celtics roster when training camp rolls around. Talking to Tim McMahon, ESPN NBA reporter. You can also see him on the great podcast, The Hoop Collective. Dusty May running from Michigan or running to the Mavericks? That's a great question. I wouldn't say running from Michigan, maybe running from college basketball, but clearly he had interest in jumping to the NBA.
The Mavericks was the opportunity that presented itself. And look, there's a lot of work to be done with this Mavericks roster, but There is really significant appeal in being the head coach in Dallas, and that's primarily for one reason. They have a guy to build around. They hope for the next generation.
Now I'm obviously talking about Cooper Flagg, a 19-year-old who has MVP type of potential, who has perennial potential. All-NBA type potential. They have the toughest piece to find already in place. And so, you know, for that reason, plus they have an owner who's willing to pay, this was an attractive job to coaches. NBA teams try to model themselves after the Knicks with them.
I don't know if it's necessarily a copycat league, and how would you even copy what the Knicks were able to do with that roster? Yeah, I mean, obviously, anytime a team wins a championship, other franchises are going to study that and going to see if there's things that they can emulate. But the biggest piece there is Jalen Brunson, and I don't know how you emulate that. I don't know how.
Chapter 8: How does the NBA's draft process affect player careers?
Look, when the Knicks signed him to a four-year, $104 million contract, the general reaction was, oh, my gosh, I can't believe how much they overpaid. And it was a silly reaction at the time because it was like Adams starting point guard money.
But nobody with the Knicks thought they were getting a perennial NBA player, you know, a finals MVP player, a guy who's going to drop 45 in a title clinching game. And so he's exceeded all their internal expectations. And then I also so finding that guy, having him just blossom and continue to get better and better and better.
I don't know how you emulate that, and I also don't know how you emulate having the face of your franchise leave $113 million on the table so you can fill out the rest of the roster. I don't think that's going to be a trend. Well, Tim, there's millions and millions of Knicks fans who knew that Jalen Brunson was going to be this great. It was everybody else, all the members of the media.
We're the ones who didn't realize this. Nobody loves Jalen Brunson more than his dad, Rick, and Rick will be the first one to tell you. I thought he was going to be good. I didn't know he was going to be this great. So the rest of them, they know him better than his own dad does. Well, Jay Wright came out, and even when I had him on after the season, he said, I didn't think he was a one.
I thought he might be a two or a three for a team. So here's your college coach. He didn't think you would be this great. Right, and this guy, he has been underestimated, obviously, his entire career. I mean, he was the NCAA Player of the Year on a championship team his last year at Villanova and slipped into the second round.
But in Dallas, as he kept getting better and better, that last year he proved himself as a bona fide number two on a really good team, on a team that went to the Western Conference Finals. And look, if you want to say I knew it,
then you can say that little glimpse that year when Luka Doncic was out with a calf strain and they had to open the playoffs without him and they won two of the three games against the Jazz when Brunson had 41 and 31, you can claim that and say, okay, I saw it then.
But to do it with the consistency that he's done it and to make playoff runs every single year before breaking through this year, hey, if you saw it coming... I hope you're invested in the stock market. Always good to catch up with you, Tim. Thanks for joining us. Appreciate you, Dan. Adios, amigo. It's Tim McMahon, ESPN NBA reporter, the Band McMahon podcast on the Hoop Collective.
And he wrote the book on Luca, The Wonder Boy, The Curse of Greatness. I have to admit that that was my title before Luca, but I allowed him to use that as the title for Luca. Very thoughtful. Wonder Boy, The Curse of Greatness. Yes, that's what I do, Paulie. Carter in Washington. Hi, Carter. What do you have for me today? Hey, Dan.
