Bill Simmons is hurt that LeBron James might be going to Miami... How 'annoying' is Miami media? Will this Miami Heat season be a disaster?
Transcript
00:00sometimes you got to respect the hate no sometimes you do do we really have annoying media
00:06uh i don't know tobin i don't you think i'm annoying you think i could be annoying to other
00:11fan bases do you think they're referring to you it's tomorrow friday you go out of your way
00:16you've come in here on several occasions going i'm in their head i'm free i mean very clearly
00:23we are in his head rent free no no no no no i mean very clearly you've done that not
00:27very
00:28to him but to a bunch of fan bases very clearly well i'm in and say i got him sorry
00:32i'm sorry
00:34but i do think you just asked the question i just think it's funny i think it's a i think
00:37it's a hilarious thing he's talking about oh that's all they could do to get attention the
00:41guys literally come out with like wrong rumor this summer after wrong rumor for podcast clicks
00:47and this guy's sitting here being like jaylen brown is never going anywhere yannis is definitely
00:53is going to go to the celtics oh wait no yannis is going to go to cleveland oh no wait
00:58yannis is
01:00going to go to the west coast oh no wait lebron is definitely going to the warriors oh no wait
01:05uh
01:08first pearl jam like so out of here dude so my question is is that the nature of the business
01:16now
01:16you want to get something out there first and because nobody holds you accountable you can just
01:22keep saying what you want and nobody cares that's the problem if somebody if somebody were to make
01:28you a pause and somebody hold up receipts you see what i'm saying and say wait a minute buddy you
01:36ain't never right how interesting does their work become i don't know but the dude's been oh for the
01:43entire summer and he's sitting here like uh now now he wants to say oh well i hope it happens
01:48to miami no
01:49because you know it's gonna happen to miami you've been saying non-stop lebron is never gonna go to
01:52miami he's gonna go to philly he's gonna go to cleveland he's gonna go to golden state you said
01:57this stuff was all in the bag just like you said by the way you also said yannis was going
02:00to golden
02:00state this year too and uh you know oh here we're sitting here yannis is on the miami heat they're
02:07on
02:07the doorstep of getting lebron james and oh it's gonna be a disaster you know it's not gonna be a
02:11disaster will they win the championship i don't know if they'll win the championship but people think
02:15it's gonna be a disaster come on what in philly no in miami am i it's not gonna be a
02:21disaster you
02:21know why here's why the first thing in building a really good team is having players who respect
02:31everyone right so when you bring yannis and bam and put those two together they respect each other
02:39i'm talking about to the level of there's nothing that's gonna break that bond you bring lebron
02:45and the other two respect him right and so from that standpoint there's a certain level of
02:53basketball that you can expect to be played that carries along you know that that goes a long way
02:59in in having a teammate um there's a lot of other situations where teams have talent
03:07but the respect for one another is not as great simply because i don't know if you're gonna play
03:14all this burden is gonna be on me um you know and those things carry a lot of weight like
03:20joel mb
03:22is fine like he's a he's a good player but when you watch him play and you see his teammates
03:31running
03:32up and down the court and and and then see him lumbering after like three minutes of consistent
03:37basketball how can you count on that how can you depend on that and so at some point during the
03:46course of the season even if all those guys respect him if all those guys like him at some point
03:52is
03:53going to get down to hey man i thought we were going to do this together
04:00when you have the respect for your teammates you don't do stuff like that i just don't think lebron
04:05james in good faith could uh could could do that i mean listen he the rumors are out there that
04:11he's
04:11uh this this is the new thing yesterday is that uh apparently they're trying to get anthony davis
04:17linked on back whatever team that he goes to whether it be cleveland or golden state
04:20right and i just i think this is just like we're getting to the point where it's like it's silly
04:26on
04:26the on the noise about all this because you know no no no sane general manager is going to trade
04:33evan
04:33mobley for anthony davis it's just not going to happen no one's going to do that they didn't trade
04:38they wouldn't trade evan mobley for yannis they're not going to do that and then you go to golden state
04:42it's like why is golden state taking on jimmy butler's contract to give you anthony davis like what's
04:47are you giving them four first round picks for anthony davis that's what they're going to do
04:51right really and then that that that's a good organization run things so i don't know man listen
04:59peep you know you know as soon as little willie gets in his feelings about stuff that things are
05:04close and that he's nervous you can smell it on him it's it's easy to smell but you know i'll
05:11sit
05:11here and i'll be annoying about it it's all good i'm happy about it we're getting lebron james on
