Detroit Pistons Ready To Go ALL IN FOR FREE AGENCY?! | SWISH or BRICK segment

Detroit Pistons Ready To Go ALL IN FOR FREE AGENCY?! | SWISH or BRICK segment

here that’s got in the chat livened up and I can’t wait to get into this next segment because we got to talk about the Detroit Pistons free agency outlook that also includes the draft and we have some things from some of uh you know the the best as it relates to understanding the cap and the outlook that the team is going to have and making all of the practical moves that the Pistons can do. They kind of lay it out there and to be honest with you, the Pistons don’t have a lot of room to make a lot of moves. If they do go out there and play in free agency, they’re going to cost themselves one of the vets or two that are free agents this year in themselves. one of Dennis Schroer, Tim Hardaway, or Malik Beasley will be gone if the Pistons go out there and make subsequent moves uh unless they utilize and straddle uh the the the new CBA and the new rules that go along with it because they have some some different uh uh exceptions that can be used uh at their disposal to be able to bring back some of these vets bring and do a minor move. But I’m going to read something a little bit later, too, because the Pistons actually have the ability to go into this off seasonason and make a huge splash if they want to. Cuz on draft night, they’re going to be able to play with a full deck of cards for the first time in almost four or five years. Uh, so you guys already know the deal. It’s your boy Brandon Dan K, Detroit Kool-Aid Reporter and writer for the network. Flannel Sam, the vet of the squad of the network. And we also got Rod Beard, the legend, uh, senior sports editor at the Atlanta Journal Constitution on with us. and Rod Beard, I ask you first with free agency in the draft ahead in mind, take it away with Rod’s thoughts and I’m going to share a couple things here from Bobby Marks and from uh Keith Smith NBA. Kick the tires. Kick the tires on everything. All of the stuff that we’ve talked about in the past few weeks, uh whether it’s Bobby Poris, um you like Nas Reed, I think the market is going to put them in a tough spot to get some of the bigger names. But just if you trust in Trey Jan Langden and his ability to to target Tim Hardaway, like was that somebody that was on the list that you said, “Hey, the Pistons are going to go and get and that’s going to make them a better team.” Nope. Not really. Dennis Shruder, I don’t think was on very many people’s radar at all. And and that morning of that, I kind of said, “Hey, wait a minute. This dude is still out here. We could we could go and get him.” Finesse. So, yeah. But I think that’s what you trust in. And don’t don’t feel like the big names that are out there, they have to go. And if they don’t get Giannis, I know some people are going to be a little bit disappointed. Okay, they didn’t get Giannis, but like one team is going to get Giannis, and it’s probably not going to be the Pistons. If you did go get Giannis, you’re gutting the rest of your roster to do it. Trust your team’s front office to make the wise moves and base it on their track record of doing that before. And we said the same thing with um Troy Weaver’s drafting acumen. Drafts were fine. Trades didn’t always work out. And okay, obviously the Killian Hayes didn’t work out. I I’ll I’ll Yeah. continue to beat that drum, too. But I mean, that’s you trust the track record and and hope your team gets it right. Hey, definitely. You know what? I I I’m going to get more into this as it relates to offseason outlook because you’re preaching. I love the analogy of kicking the tires. is something that we’ve heard of even from a guy like Brad Holmes who we’ve seen traditionally be a little bit more conservative with his free agent approach or even in trades. But we heard now, hey, he did kick the tires on Max Crosby. He did kick the tires on Miles Garrett. He did kick the tires on Hendrickson. Whether you strike it or not, it’s nice to know that you have a GM who can kick the tires on some of those more extravagant deals as well as find ways to keep your team among the top without some of those extravagant deals unless you’re giving them to your own guys. Um, but I have a shout out of the day and that is to one JB Bicker staff who treasure your Langdon. You talk about all of the aspects of identification, what gets this team to the next level. If you could throw that up JB Smooth and chat family, if you have a shout out of the day, whether it was something sports related, business related, family related, put it into the chat and we’ll read some of the best. But uh, this was interesting right up here uh, via Bobby Marks. He says uh, you know, the hiring of head coach JB Bicker Staff also gave Detroit an identity this season. The Pistons ranked 10th in defensive efficiency, ninth in field goal percentage allowed, fifth in paint points, and ninth in blocks last year. They ranked in the 20s in each of those categories, including 25th uh in efficiency. A big jump forward for JBF. So, I wanted to just give him a tip of the cap as we’re talking about some of the things that Treasan Langdon has done so well. And that’s where we go to the article uh from Omari Sanca uh of the Detroit Free Press, which laid out some comments from Trajan Langdon. I wanted to tell the people before we get into our Swisser brick. He says, “I can tell you there’s a specific thing we’re looking at uh going at in the draft. Again, we understand the land the landscape of it and we see if we can move up if there’s a player we really like, but we have to look at how much that cost is for that kind of player we think we’re going to get and we’ll weigh all those things as we get information in Chicago and start doing our draft prep and going forward in uh in the draft.” He also talked about keeping all avenues open like you said in terms of making a splash or making some marginal moves or going out there and seeing if there’s something somewhere in between. So Treasure Landon, he definitely has his head up on all deals possible. And this is where I get excited. Rod, as we’re getting a little bit closer to Swiss Brick, if you could put up uh Bobby Marks of ESPN, the draft capital outlook for the Pistons, JB. Oh yeah, Rod, this is where it gets pretty interesting because I’ve actually heard this is something to look out for for the Pistons. If you’re talking about kicking the tires, they actually have the opportunity to go out there and make a big deal without giving up the young players on the roster, but they’re going to have to mortgage their future to do it. He says here, “For the first time since the 2020 offseason, that is five years, Rod, the Dro has control of its first round picks for the next seven years. Starting the night of the draft, the Pistons are allowed to trade up to four first round picks and they’re allowed to swap first in every single season. They have 15 second rounders available. The Detroit Pistons are actually primed to be able to make a big move when you consider someone like a Tobias Harris in his contract as well as the effectiveness he shown as and then you mix it with all of the first round picks that they’re actually able to package. The Pistons are actually in a big big prime position to actually cash in on one of those splashers. And and this is what we talked about with one way you improve your roster is cleaning up your cap. We’ve seen them do that in the past few years. You got to clean up your draft picks also. And that that this pick that had been sitting out there for years and years and years and years and they were so bad that it it was not going to convey. Now that it’s gone, you don’t have to worry about any of this stuff and you can have a normal sort of of trade session and trade conversation with people um to to say, “Hey, we’ve got some first that we can give you.” It’s you people will hang up if you’re like, “Yeah, maybe we can give you this first.” Well, we’ll see. No, we we ain’t got time to see, bro. We we got other calls that we’re taking of people who definitely control their own picks. So, I think this is this is one of the bigger developments is that yes, you don’t get a draft pick this year. I don’t know that you would be able to do very much with it anyway. I don’t particularly love this draft class. It’s not as bad as last year, but I don’t particularly love this draft class. But, I mean, you you you do whatever you need to do. And hey, if you keep it, it’s salary control uh that you can you can kind of keep under your wing, too. But if you want to package it and do something, you have that ability now, too. Yeah. And you know what? Let’s get that graphic up because this is where we got to answer these questions. Trejan Landon talked about the possibility of moving up Swiss or break and but we hear these little rumors about the Pistons being in prime position to go out there and just chaos this off season. We’ve seen them at like three or four of the last five drafts actually trade back into the first round. We’ve seen them actually trade four players. The Jeremy Jeremy Grant deal was for a player. That was during the draft when they actually acquired him. Uh, so it’s going to be intriguing to see how Trejan Langden uh, moves forward. But this is the first question that I got to ask you guys. Show me the Devin Booker graphic. Show me the Deon Booker graphic. It’s there. I know it’s there. I know it’s there. You know what? As always, people, look, Devin Booker, come on. Force your way home, brother. Come on. You have an owner who would understand your desire to be back home and connected to Michigan, man. You even your your Phoenix sons. You guys even went out to Michigan, say that to his alma mater and and and showed him a lot of love, man. Come on home, Devin. But you know what? This is where the first question uh lies. And chat fam, I want to know what you guys feel too. We get uh let me see here. This is the off season. This is the offseason for the Pistons to make a splash. Not what do you think Trejan Lang is going to do or not do. The Pistons are in the driver’s seat with their draft picks. They have good young capital. They have a good big contract in in Tobias Harris. A good value big large contract which can really move and shake. That is 26 million and around the draft time when some of the cap holds aren’t in yet. That’s a big big piece. Uh but what say Swiss or Brick? This is the offseason, not next for the Pistons to actually make the big splash whether it’s trade uh or signing what I want. You know what? I’m going to go swish. And I’ve been a little You’re effing them picks. You’re trading. I’ve been a little wishy-washy at times, but let me just say this. There are some And I get it. It’s our social media page. It isn’t gospel. But I have seen some ones that have been posted that a lot of people disagree with that I’ve been like, “Yeah, 100% make it happen. 100% make it happen.” And with all kinds of players, it’s not just Devin Booker. There’s been rumblings about KD, Giannis. I know your favorite Zion, Lorie, Markin, even I mean I I guess I’ll stop there because that would uh define Splash, but I’ll say I’ll say Swish. And I’m not gonna be devastated if they don’t, but what I would do, I’ll say. I mean, you just named like what, five or six good players. There’s only so many teams on the rise. You actually make really, really compelling point there. That dude Justin, what up though, brother? How you feeling about this thing? Is this the offseason? The Detroit Pistons have to make that splash for you. They’re in prime position right now. I don’t think they have to, but I think they will. I just think that the options that are coming available this off season, as it seems, are going to be perfect fits for the Pistons. the the KDs, the D books, either of them come available, I think they match perfectly in what the Pistons want to do. So, I think it’s a switch and I think that it will be this off seasonason. JB Smooth. Uh I feel like Sam on this one, I’ve been going back and forth about these picks, but I think I’m at the point where it is right now where it’s like pull pull a Brad Holmes and Dan Campbell. F them pics. You’re putting the pics in a t-shirt cannon and launch. I’m just launching them. Bring in somebody some some heavy hitters, some new talent right now. Just just help help out Kade as much as you can. As much as you can. Just help this man out. Hey, Kavasia Chase, what’s your philosophy? Mike Chase, I’m going to say Brick. I don’t think what I’d like the move I’d like to make would be considered say like a splash unless you are able to get someone like Jiren Jackson Jr. Um, I I’m prefer I’m looking more at like someone like uh in the paint to play a pivotal role um either to replace Tobias or, you know, to help kind of like guide Jaylen Duran and his growth as a center. You just I’m looking for like someone to play in the the front court. Yeah. And you know what? Before Rod gives his answer, Big Dan Davis, he says Devin Booker, bring him home. Let’s speak it into existence so we know where he is. But Great Beard 78 says Ivy can be better than Booker. So, there’s some people who are not for it. Uh, and I see you FL Sam. Hold it. Oh, beer. Kumbaya. What have I always told you about the Ivy Bros? They’re psychotic sometimes, and I like Ivy, but what? Kumbaya beard. Kumbaya. Sorry, I’m feeling very vindicated today. But, uh, go on. I bro 151. He says swish. And, uh, you know what? But I saw another one. Cortez Whitlo says brick at Gary Trent Jr. Let THJ go and get a real power forward. Rod Beard, what say ye? He’s still under duress. Chad Bailey is killing Rod today. If you believe in humanity, that should be something that takes away your your your faith in humanity. Like Ivy can be better than DBook. Like what are we doing? What why do we have a show? Why do why do we even have these segments if people are gonna say stuff like that? Y’all got Ron hot. What up though, R. I already know where you at. Look, look, I’m going to say swish. And I’m going to come from a different perspective on this. Ooh, if the Celtics can’t keep this roster together, if Milwaukee loses Giannis, if the Knicks without Tibs now implode, unless they go get Malone, then that that they could keep it together. There’s an opportunity for the Pistons to jump two to three spots in the East, which puts them in the top four. Go do something reckless. Go. I This This is one of the few times that I will I will jump out of character and say, “Go do something reckless and go get a big name.” If it’s reasonable and you don’t have to sell the farm to do it, go do it. Just go do it. If you need to go get book, go get book. Do it. Make it happen. Or if you don’t get book, at least you have Ivy, who is in some ways better than he found a way to bring it back around full. I promise you guys, I like Jaden Ivy. I really do. We all do. Just It’s the It’s It’s the Ivy Bro fans. And I’m not the only one. I’m not the only one that that feels that way. Trust me. Hey, no. You see, is Stick in the room? Did Did Do we know for a fact that Stick didn’t send that? I We don’t know for a fact. It could be somewhere in the back office. Is that I see a shadowy figure just walking past the window right now. Okay. Shout out to the K Crusader. I see you in the chat, Mike G. It is a K Crusader shirt on the W Sports Network merch shop. Uh, but we got question number two here and this one is who’s the Swiss and who’s the brick free agent target. You got to pick one that is Nas Reed who the Pistons have been linked to rumored to have some interest in as well as Miles Turner. There is also uh been uh by several different outlets reports that the Detroit Pistons are actually interested in both of them. And so and just to kind of put it out there even a little bit more, this is via Mark Stein. The Pistons are among teams with interest in Timberwolves big man Nas Reed. Uh as well as them coveting. They’re known to covet floor spacing big man um Miles Turner. And I guess that also includes all of his Legos. I see Rod took the glasses off of that one. Who’s the Swiss? Who is the break free agent target? We got a lot of people in our previous comments who you’re seeing people on both ends of it who want Nas, some people who want Miles. Where you at with this thing? I would say they’re both swishes in a way, but if you were to ask me, obviously he’s got a great skill set. He’s a stretch big. But my thing with Miles Turner, and I’m being dead serious, by the way, I think Miles Turner would also give the Pistons an opportunity to give them what they need and weaken the Pacers a little bit because Miles Turner, not only is he a very high contributing member on a team that’s in the finals right now, he gives the Pistons fits constantly. So, Miles Turner would be my switch, although Bobby Poris would be a nice consolation prize. If you want a secondary answer, whoever’s cheaper. that that that that that answer but in a vacuum player for player. Give me Miles Turner by the slimmest of margins. That dude Justin, I I agree with Flannel. I just add Nas Reed to that list and I would be happy. Yeah. So, you want Nas? Yeah. Dope. JB Smooth. Who’s your Swiss? Who’s your Who’s the Brick uh free agent target? Naz Reed or Miles Miles Turner? Did I say Bobby Portoris? My bad. Still same applies with Nas Reed. I would still do uh do Miles Turner. I I think the switch has to be Nas Reed. I just think he fits a little bit more. But selfishly, I would love Miles Turner on this team, but I think it’s Nas Reed Kool-Aid. I’m surprised that you haven’t thrown in another name that’s been floating around as well, too. One, Mr. Caris Levert. I listen, he’s going to be a part of a future one because I think though he’s intrinsically linked, in my opinion, to if another Michigan guy comes back next year or not. I do. I I I see you, Rod. I I really do. When I saw that intrigue and interest, I was like, they can get him for cheaper. And when you look at the stats, I kind of like the what the what the potential could be there. What up though, Kavas CH? We’re going to talk about that one uh probably next week. Uh uh JB Smooth, I mean, I’m going to say switch to this. I think that’s kind of just piggybacking on what I was answering with the last question. We’re saying I think we should add someone in the front court who I think would be really beneficial to this team. Not necessarily what would be considered the splash move, but the piece that is really like, you know, the necessary move, you know, the grimy, the grittiness, you know, to help in the paint where we really need to help. I think defensively too. Hey, what say ye Rodbeard? I’m going to say swish on Nas Reed because he doesn’t have to play the five and you can play him with uh Duran. Miles Turner plays with Legos, man. I can’t He’s not letting it go. I can’t I’m not going to let it go and he’s just more of a traditional big and six and a half rebounds is concerning for me for him. Yes, it would weaken the Pacers a little bit, but I think they would find another way around it. And I’m I’m more in the Bobby Portoris camp. Just tell me give me some some contract numbers on what you would have to get for each one. Uh and I can make a better decision on this. But just fair. Yeah. I I I like some other options. some fours that that you don’t take Duran out of his development. I actually really like that that nuance there because that to me is what’s kind of missing from this team right now. Obviously, they need help at that fourth spot, whether it’s depth or whether it’s not whether they decide to do something different in the starting lineup. Thought that was really good distinction. I think that the free agent on all of our minds for like the last three weeks, it’s been Bobby Poris. You talking about high impact, high motor, toughness, what we lock out of Detroit, he’s not going to cost a lot. He’s the guy to me who I believe you can just slide into what you have right now and he won’t disrupt a whole lot of what you want to do for your off seasonason. That’s the one that I’m just kind of like that’s just hey let’s just do that. It’s a low stress move and and keep it moving. But you know I’m seeing some people in the chat uh Turner is a scoreer but Cortez Whitlo says if Miles Turner isn’t making threes he’s useless. He doesn’t rebound at all. Dante 151 believes the switch is Miles Turner and the brick is Nas Reed. There’s a whole lot of four uh Miles Turner in this chat. Vincent E, Adis, uh Weezy D313, uh let me see here. We even more so. It says Nas Reed thinks he’s KD. I’m good. There’s a lot of love in this chat for one Miles Turner. But last question here. The Pistons have three free agents uh that they could bring back. That’s Tim Hardway Jr., Malik Beasley, and Dennis Shruder. The one that I’ve seen everybody in Kumbaya about has been Dennis Shruder. But what if you could only bring back one of these? Because if you’re going to go out there and potentially sign a Miles Turner, a Nas Reed, or one of these other players, you might price yourself out of one of these other free agents. Is Dennis Schroer, if you could only sign one, is Dennis Schroeder that one? The only one. The only free agent vet that should be signed. Swiss or break? Because remember, it has implications on everything else that they try to do moving forward. And it also has implications based on how they decide to to place themselves with those uh exceptions that they can use. All right. So, let me do you guys mind if I hijack for just a second because I want Rod Beard’s opinion on this about another free agent for the uh Detroit Pistons. Let’s go. I’ve become as the playoffs have gone on and on very very upset with Malik Beasley. Maybe I’m being emotional, but I’m looking at Tyrese Hallebertton and I’ve been on record on this show thinking that his playoff run has been very, very overrated. Really, really good. Lots some legendary moments, but by no means a legendary playoff run. One of the reasons I say that is because he gets to pass the ball to 50% from three Aaron Nesmith in the postseason. One of the greatest role player postseason three-point elevators. and Andrew Nembart gets Pascal Seakum who was the deserving Eastern Conference Finals MVP over Hallebertton, Miles Turner, etc., etc. And Cade got to pass the ball to the playoff dropper in Malik Beasley and Tim Hardaway Jr. both of them laid enough bricks to repave Woodward. I truly believe that one of the reasons why Tyrese Hallebertton is thought of as a much better postseason performer than Cade Cunningham is because he got to throw the ball to role players who are showing up and Cade did not. So I’m very upset with Malik Beasley and that No, no, no. I’m glad you said that because that is kind of the basis of the question. This team is talking about moving forward next year. This team is talking about taking big steps forward next year and a ride. Hey, Tom Tibido. The Pistons contributed, the Pacers contributed. They’re now add them to the all dysfunction teams. Add them. They put too much investment in. So, I don’t I I don’t have a problem with what you’re saying. The Pistons have a great opportunity right now to strike. It’s unfortunate what happened to the Celtics. I’m glad to see what’s happening with the Knicks. And now you see things opening up for the Pistons, but if they wrestle on their laurels one bit, one bit, Orlando has an opportunity to really, really strike next year. There are some teams like the Raptors who there’s already mutual interest between them and Giannis. This team can’t just run it back cutely. If you’re talking about bringing back multiple of these these these uh vets, you got to know that these guys are going to be there when it matters most. We’re talking about a team we think can compete for top four. You got to have those guys. You got to have those guys as the ones performing. That that dude Justin, what’s what do you say? Schroeder would be then the only of the vets you’d bring back. He’s the only one that should be be brought back. Swish. Sure. Swish. That dude. Justin, you I didn’t hear. You’re giving you’re cutting uh Beasley hard away. You giving him the boot. Shruder. Swish or break. The only vet that should be brought back. Swish. I I I’ve I’ve done a 360 on this this whole uh free agent bit with uh Beasley and HJ and and Schroeder. And I just I think that Schroeder is the best value. He brings the most to the team. He you brings you that third guard facilitating guard unless you were going to bring in Chris Paul. I would like to see Shter back in this team. I think you can replace Beasley with some other shooters. I think that you need a a better plethora of shooters instead of one shooter that’s just lights out which he wasn’t lights out for the playoffs. So didn’t didn’t matter in that regard. I’m seeing some early breaks here and I’m seeing some support for Malik Beasley. But JB Smooth, what say you? Man, this is a hard question. Come on. Tough one. They got to figure this out though. They’re faced with it right now. They They are faced with this right now. And I probably got to agree with you guys as well too and go with Swiss. I think you could find another quality consistent shooter, especially during the playoffs as well, too. But it just sucks that to let him go right now, especially Beey cuz I feel like he’s just someone that the city has, you know, fallen in love with and just found an attraction to with this team. But it’s a switch for me. I know it’s a tough decision, but yeah, give me give me Shruder. He’s the He’s the one I want. I think I think I’m about to call on Chase GPT for this one. What up though, brother? I was going to say, yeah, I’ll say Swish as well. Go ahead and throw Tobias Harris in the mix as another veteran. You’re not You can do that as well. I agree. I agree with that. Any any way to get the little strays, boy. Drive by. Shout out Fast and Loose with the drive by on Tobias. Big Dan Davis, Woodward Sports. Bring back Malik Threzley. He loves it here. Jordan from MIBZ is the only one that we should sign. Trell Lamar. No. Uh, you know what? Charles Mlan, Beey, Terrell Lamar, Brick, there’s a lot of Beasley love here, uh, in Detroit. Uh, and shout out because he did show a lot of love to uh, to the city and we know that his connections here, too. But I do see some people in the chat who believe that it should be Shruder and I see some who believe it should be Tim Hardway. This is actually a lot more split in the chat than I thought it was would be. Maybe we can do a chat poll on that. Which one of the uh, the vets should it be? Should it be Shruder Beasy or Tim Hardaway Jr.? It’s gonna be an intriguing one. But Rob Beard, what say if it’s only one? Because we’re talking about the improvements we want to see them make elsewhere. If they use this cap space to sign someone else, they have to relinquish the cap holds on the current free agents of uh Dennis Shruder, Tim Hardaway, and Malik Beasley. Uh making them uh probably open to the market outside of the exemptions uh and exceptions the Pistons will be able to use to sign them. So what say Shruder if you’re going to sign one is he the only one? We talked about this a couple of weeks ago and I said it with Shruder and I got booze and I got comments in the comments and I’m I’mma stick where I am that defensively he finished games for you. He guarded the tough he guarded um Brunson when you needed another body on him. He’s that that to me is more of an asset than the three-point shooting if you’re not going to make the three-point shooting. And that’s one of the risks is yeah, that 40% means you make 40%. It also means you miss 60% of the threes that you take. And and that’s you you didn’t have a lot more uh three-point shooters like that. I think you can find that and you can get on some hot streaks, but that defensive presence at that point guard position that lets Cade not have to guard um th those smaller guys at the end of games is is something that’s just hidden and that we don’t talk about enough. Hey, I I appreciate your perspective on that 100%, Rod. And before we uh let you go, I just one thing to clarify about Hallebertton having an overrated postseason run in my opinion is is when it comes to Cade, I will acknowledge that he didn’t control all the controllables that he could have. That 18% three-point percentage, even though it was his first postseason, that’s gross. I’m not going to defend that. Should Nobody should even try. Some of the late game turnovers, I get. But man, it’s just Tyrese Hallebertton has a charmed life. I understand he’s had some game winners. That’s a legendary stretch. That 30, 10, 15 game with no turnovers, that was legendary. The assist to turnover ratio on a as a low usage player, amazing. But man, has that guy had so many players that he can throw to to just knock down threes. And game one of the Eastern Conference Finals, they were about to lose by double digits if Aaron Nath didn’t have the greatest three-point shooting stretch I’ve ever seen. Game two, Pascal Sakum had 39. I just I don’t know. I’m very passionate about this and I’m very upset with uh the overration, not a word, of Tyrese Hallebertton’s play. Very good. Very good. We will allow it. Yes. Overration. I like that. We have to add that one to the uh Wuku dictionary. JB Smooth. But Rodbeard, thank you for your time as always, brother. Man, it’s been awesome for a couple different segments, multiple sports uh teams here in Detroit, and a lot of them, they’re just winning right now. Uh but any last words from you, brother? Tigers. We didn’t talk Tigers one bit. Best team in baseball right now. Tigers, man. Best. And and and and that’s that’s where we are. That the other teams are so good that we don’t even have to talk about the team that has the best record in baseball. Again, let’s not forget where we were three, four years ago when none of these were playoff teams and we were struggling to have good conversations about sports. Feel fortunate about where you are as a sports city. You’ve made it and and this is a fun time. Hey, this is a fun time. Straight up. Rod Beard, senior sports editor, Atlanta Journal Constitution. Definitely go ahead and smash that like button. Uh for the legend, Rod Beard, thank you for your time. Oh, go blue, buddy. Go blue. Hey, let’s rock. Let’s get to that next segment. Do we got to double up on anything, JB Smooth? Uh, yeah, we probably do. So, uh, how about Buddies and Dr. Pierce? Hey, definitely. Buddies pizza. It’s been serving the original. The original DJ.
